Poor children

Chapter 146

"Master, General Gan has entered the palace." Shunxi came back to report the news in a hurry.

"The old man didn't go out much after Mrs. Gan took command. Why did he come out today? Is he at the king's place?" Mrs. Xiao was very surprised.

"Master, the old general did not go to Changping Palace, but came to the Harem..." Shunxi replied

"Come to the harem? Have you gone to Mrs. Gan's place?"

"Master, no! The old general has gone to Ruihua Hall..." Shunxi replied

"Going to the queen's place? Why?" Mrs. Xiao was even more puzzled.
"Today we sent off the big general to bid farewell, and the young general Chengzhe also came to congratulate the young highness on his birth. The old general became interested when he heard this, and wanted to come to join in the fun. Right now, he is drinking tea in the palace of His Highness the Queen." Shunxi said Then, I remembered something again, "Master, there is one more thing..."

"what's up?"

"The king is going to make His Highness the crown prince..."

"What!?" Mrs. Xiao's anger suddenly rose. "I wanted to make him the crown prince when he was born. I haven't appointed him the crown prince for so many years. Is it because the king loves me and wants to give my son Hongyu the same opportunity? Why did he choose this one?" Is it time to establish a crown prince? The queen has given birth to a prince now, does she have no objection? "

"Master, this is what Her Royal Highness the Queen suggested..." Shun Xi arrived
"She mentioned it!?" Mrs. Xiao was puzzled, "What was her intention in doing this?"

"Master, now that the old general is here, what should we do?" Shunxi asked

"Hmph! We're here just in time, otherwise I wouldn't know how to deal with him all the time in the general's mansion..." Mrs. Xiao patted the table and stood up, pacing back and forth in the hall, thinking about countermeasures in her mind.
"What is Mrs. Gan doing?" Mrs. Xiao asked
"I heard that the old general is here. He is preparing to eat. I want to take him to Her Majesty the Queen's palace to have lunch together." Shunxi arrived
"Where are our people in the Queen's Palace?"

"Go back to the master, the palace servant who stole the peach wood last time is still there."

Mrs. Xiao calmed down again, sat back at the table, picked up the tea bowl, and began to think about how to deal with the two Gan family members at once, and to blame the poor child.

The big things that need to be done must be done. Once the throne is established, how will they, mother and son, be able to establish themselves in the future?
Ever since she learned that the pauper had given birth to another little prince, Mrs. Xiao felt that the threat was even greater than before. Now that she had learned about the matter of making His Highness the crown prince, she felt even more unable to sit still.

"Where is the Wujin Pill that Mr. Jin brought when he came last time?" Mrs. Xiao suddenly asked
"Master, this slave is going to get it..."

"After getting it, give it to the palace servant, and leave it to Mrs. Gan and the old general to eat. People will die in her place. Let's see how she escapes!"

"I understand!" Shunxi responded and was about to leave but was stopped by Madam Xiao.
"After you're done, send the slave who did the work out and do it cleanly!"

"Yes……"

The Ruihua Palace was lively at the moment. When Lai Bao heard that the old general was coming, he came to join in the fun. Since he entered the northwest palace, Lai Bao had not had time to meet the old general and Cheng Zhe. Nearly two years had passed and Cheng Zhe had grown up. Having grown into a handsome young man, Lai Bao is now called sister. The two of them have grown up in the blink of an eye. Now when they meet, they are no longer fighting and fussing like before. Instead, they are getting along with each other, but the look in their eyes is still there from time to time. Wandering around the other party, the awkwardness made everyone in the palace feel embarrassed... "Little daughter-in-law, I haven't seen you for a year and you have grown into a big girl." Fang Shaoqin deliberately eased the embarrassment.
"Who is your little daughter-in-law? Don't scream..." Laibao glared at Fang Shaoqin

"Didn't you agree on this when you were little? Now that you are older, how about you come with me when I go back this time? You can get married..." Fang Shaoqin laughed.
As soon as he said this, before Laibao could say anything, Chengzhe said, "The older my uncle gets, the less serious he becomes. Why are you trying to bully her? She has a bad temper. If she takes it seriously and starts making trouble, who among us can stop her?" she?"

"Why am I not serious about finding a wife for my son? Why are you kid talking to your uncle?" Fang Shaoqin asked
"Didn't my aunt say that it was my grandfather who made the decision to marry Jing Xiu, the granddaughter of General Jin Wu?"

"Really, I rarely want to tease Miss Laibao, but you are so serious and insist on telling the matter. You can't see her getting anxious now, can you?" Fang Shaoqin laughed.
"I don't usually see him being so serious," Tie Dan'er said, "but the matter has something to do with Lai Bao, so he became serious..."

Chengzhe didn't dare to say anything anymore after they told him what was on his mind.

Now that Laibao is older, he has so many worries in his mind that he can't be free and easy. In order to cover up his embarrassment, he can only excuse himself to cook and run out of the palace in a hurry.
"I...I'm going to help her!" Chengzhe naturally couldn't sit still when he saw her leaving, so he also hurriedly chased her out.
Everyone in the hall found it funny to see the two of them being so awkward. The old general even laughed so much that he coughed repeatedly. The poor man hurriedly knelt down and stood up, patting the old general's back to help him calm down.
It happened that Mrs. Gan had brought some food, and she saw this scene just as she entered the main hall.

"Grandfather, granddaughter is late..." Mrs. Gan hurriedly sat down on the other side of the old general.

"Ruonan" the old general called

"Old grandfather..." Zi Tong knelt down in front of the old general to say hello.

"Zi Tong, get up quickly." The old general waved her over. Zi Tong quickly got up and sat down between him and the poor boy.
"How good is this old grandfather?" Zi Tong asked as he moved into the poor boy's arms again.

"I'm good, I'm good! Why doesn't Zi Tong go to play with his grandfather?" the old general laughed.

"Grandpa, forgive me. Zi Tong has been busy with schoolwork recently, so he doesn't have time to say hello to grandpa..."

"Hey! Zi Tong has started studying? Hahaha! Okay..." Although the old general is old, he has a ruddy complexion and a loud voice.
"Look, Grandpa, have you seen that Zi Tong now only recognizes Her Royal Highness as the queen, not even me, the biological mother..." Mrs. Gan personally plucked the tangerines and handed them to the old general.

"Her Royal Highness the Queen is her mother. What's wrong with getting closer? Why do you still choose this?" The old general said, "Her Royal Highness the Queen has a kind heart and naturally treats Zi Tong as her own. Are you afraid that she won't be as good as your own mother?" "

"Looking at what you said, my granddaughter doesn't mean that. Zi Tong has Her Royal Highness the Queen to love and teach her. It's too late for my granddaughter to be happy." Mrs. Gan arrived

"My granddaughter is a rough person. She only knows how to fight and kill. Your Highness, please don't mind her. I wish you could be more considerate of her," the old general said to the poor boy.
"Mrs. Gan is straightforward and lovely, and very considerate." The poor boy picked up another tangerine and ate it with Zi Tong.

"Okay, okay! Hahaha!" The old general hasn't been out for a long time, and he didn't expect to have such a happy time when he came out this time. "I'm a little hungry. I wonder if lunch is ready?"

"Oh! Chanyu, go and have a look, pass on the food..." Pao'er heard that the old general was hungry and hurriedly urged him.

Upon hearing this, Chanyu hurriedly ran towards the kitchen in Ruihua Hall.
