After Xiao Fubao's life was stolen, he became the favorite of everyone in the capital

Chapter 321 A Bowl of Mute Medicine

A meal was enjoyed by both host and guest.

In fact, there was a time when the emperor really didn't want to come to the empress dowager's palace, because as soon as he entered, he could feel the dead atmosphere, and the queen mother was surrounded by resentment of not having grandchildren.

The emperor was also afraid of seeing his mother's disappointed eyes.

Today's meal, because of Niu Niu's presence, the Queen Mother ate much more just by looking at this child.

The emperor had not had a good appetite since the beginning of summer, but because of the presence of Niu Niu, the super food streamer, the emperor's appetite also increased.

The eldest princess came to the palace today to ensure Niu Niu's safety. Now seeing that the two masters in the palace both like Niu Niu very much, she felt relieved. When she left the palace, her steps were extremely brisk.

As soon as they returned to the Princess's Mansion, Shen Ling and Shen Changfeng took the Princess aside to ask how Niu Niu was doing.

"If you two really care about her, why don't you follow me into the palace?" the eldest princess asked with a smile.

Shen Ling looked uncomfortable.

Shen Changfeng said directly: "I am an adult man, it is not appropriate for me to enter the harem casually, so as to avoid rumors."

The eldest princess has always been busy and has never asked Shen Changfeng why, and Shen Changfeng himself would not bring up this matter on his own initiative.

Today, the princess came back from the palace in a good mood, so she asked, "Where did these rumors come from? Who dares to say such things?"

Shen Changfeng explained: "The last time I came out of my grandmother's Shoukang Palace, I happened to meet a young talent. I saw that the flowers embroidered on the sachet she was wearing were very beautiful, so I asked her maid."

Because the maid was present, Shen Changfeng didn't think there was anything wrong with his initiative.

It was precisely because of this action that Concubine Li saw it from afar.

"It was several days later that I heard that the talented woman was grounded by Concubine Li for talking to a man outside her family." When Shen Changfeng talked about this, a trace of regret appeared on his face.

The princess was so angry that she slammed the table hard: "You are so good, Concubine Li! You actually used my son as a tool to attack dissidents!"

Shen Changfeng and Shen Ling were stunned when they heard this.

The princess was already thinking about how she would flatter Concubine Li in front of the emperor and the empress dowager next time, so she said to her son, "Don't worry about it. It's your duty as a younger generation to visit your grandmother in the palace. I promise you won't say such things next time. At worst, you can ask your grandmother to send someone to escort you out of the palace."

Concubine Li dared to use the younger generation as a scapegoat, but she did not dare to associate herself with the Empress Dowager.

Shen Changfeng nodded. He was indeed worried about Niu Niu's situation in the palace.

The princess felt that she still didn't care enough about her children. She didn't ask about such a big thing, and her son didn't tell her. She turned to look at Shen Ling and asked, "What about you? Why don't you come to the palace for no reason?"

Shen Ling bit her lip.

The eldest princess said unhappily, "Are you still estranged from your own mother?"

Shen Ling had no choice but to say, "Every time I enter the palace, I always meet the Imperial Concubine. She always brings Madam Li with her. Madam Li's eyes make me feel uncomfortable."

When the eldest princess heard this, she couldn't help but reach out and poke her daughter on the forehead.

"You are my daughter, and you are afraid of the look of a foreign lady!"

Shen Ling covered his head and took a step back.

It was difficult for her to explain that look, it was cold and wet, as if she was being stared at by a poisonous snake.

Shen Ling continued, "Every time I leave the palace, I always run into young people from the Li family at the palace gate." When the princess heard this, she immediately understood the Li family's little plan.

She was angry at the Li family's plots, and also angry at herself. She had neglected her children too much in the past, which led to her being unaware of these things happening.

"Don't worry about these people. Someone will take care of the Li family." said the eldest princess.

The two children nodded.

Shen Ling took the initiative to say: "Then I will hand in a card in a while and go to the palace to live with my grandmother for a while."

Shen Changfeng said, "Then I can go to the palace more often. My master has to work now, and he can no longer take care of my studies. Mother, my master also said that he wants to come to your house to see you the day after tomorrow."

"Did your master say what it was?" asked the eldest princess.

Shen Changfeng said somewhat embarrassedly: "Master said that he wants you to find a small official position for me, saying that no matter how much he teaches, it is not as useful as a real experience in officialdom."

The princess was delighted when she heard this and said, "This is good news! Your master thinks you are ready to become a disciple!"

When Shen Changfeng heard this, his face was full of doubts, and he whispered: "I am far inferior to my master. Can I really be an official?"

For Shen Changfeng, becoming an official is almost equivalent to growing up. In his heart, he actually still feels like a child.

The princess smiled and said, "Why not? There are so many dude boys who can do it, why can't you do it?"

To be honest, Shen Changfeng was still a little sad when he heard this.

Because what my mother said almost showed that in her heart, I was a playboy.

The princess felt that today was a double blessing. After her son and daughter returned to their own courtyards, she said to the nanny beside her, "Give that worthless man a good rest. Changfeng is about to become an official. We can't let him die right away, otherwise he will have to mourn for three years and his career will be affected."

Upon hearing this, the old nanny responded respectfully and took the initiative to say, "Your Highness, the prince consort has been wanting to see you for some time. I heard that he had a big fight with the servants."

When the princess heard this, she frowned slightly: "You still have the energy to make a fuss after all this?"

The old lady said, "Everything in the house was smashed clean by the prince consort."

The princess waved her hands and said, "This is your fault. Why did you let him eat so much?"

The old nanny was stunned when she heard this. They had been feeding the prince consort with leftovers, but who would have thought that such a noble man would actually endure it.

"Cut the tendons in his hands and feet so that he won't have the energy to make trouble every day." said the eldest princess.

The old nanny seemed to be even more cruel, and asked, "Are you only picking Prince Consort Duan? What about that little bastard? The little bastard was also very noisy, and he had hurt several people before."

"I won't interrupt you, little bastard." The eldest princess said casually.

The old lady wanted to persuade him immediately: "Your Highness, if you don't remove the roots, you will be in trouble..."

The princess waved her hand and said, "Let's break the little thing's hands and feet first. We have to leave some hope for our Prince Consort."

Broken limbs can be reattached, but once the tendons in your hands and feet are severed, it is very difficult to reattach them.

The old lady then stopped talking.

The princess continued, "We have already arranged them to a remote courtyard, but Ah Ling almost noticed something was wrong. If the prince consort makes a scene in the future, just feed him a bowl of mute medicine."

The princess originally wanted to let the father and son die of illness, but now she thought that keeping both of them alive and making them live a life worse than death seemed more satisfying.
