Princess Regent

Chapter 135 Avenging You
Shangguan Erlan ignored it, wiped Xiao Lezi's face dry on his own, and warned, "Don't splash water on Xiao Lezi again, he is just sick, not as healthy as you."

"My mother, let's go to the sea to play!" Xiao Lezi raised his head and said to Shangguan Erlan, with hope in his eyes.

Shangguan Erlan smiled and shook her head, "No! The sea is very dangerous, you can't go there, just play on the beach. Look what that is!" She suddenly raised her finger and pointed behind Xiao Lezi.

Xiao Lezi turned his head and saw a strange thing, he also forgot what he said just now, ran over, and picked up the turtle that had crawled ashore with both hands.After looking at it several times, the little guy didn't know what it was, so he hugged it back to Shangguan Erlan, held it up and asked, "My mother, what is this?"

Shangguan Erlan knocked on the tortoise's shell and said with a smile: "This is called a tortoise, it has retracted its head."

"Head?" Xiao Lezi was very surprised, and looked along the place that Shangguan Erlan pointed, and there was nothing in the middle of it.Xiao Lezi became even more curious, and stretched out his finger to poke it in. Shangguan Erlan hurriedly grabbed his little hand and shook him: "Be careful it bites you."

Xiao Lezi was startled, "It can still bite people." Isn't it just a shell, how can it still bite people.

"Take it to the ground and you'll know."

Xiao Lezi obediently put the tortoise on the bottom. Sure enough, after a while, the tortoise's head protruded out of the shell. His heart was hurt, "My mother, does it not like me?" Otherwise, when he touched it, its head retracted.

Shangguan Erlan comforted: "Of course not, our baby is so good. The tortoise is afraid of strangers, and when you get to know it well, it won't shrink its head back."

"This is a shrinking turtle." Xiao Lezi murmured.

Shangguan Erlan laughed, he didn't expect to know a proverb by saying this.This kid is powerful.

"You want to raise a turtle?" Yun Zui asked, frowning.

"Is it not possible?" Shangguan Erlan and Xiao Lezi looked at him.

"Yes, yes, but this turtle can be eaten." Yun Zui pointed to the turtle and said, he had heard of people eating turtles, but he had never heard of anyone raising turtles.Generally, the kind of money turtle is raised, and almost no one knows how to raise such a turtle.

As soon as he heard that he wanted to eat the tortoise, Xiao Lezi hurriedly hugged the tortoise even tighter, lest Yun Zui would come over and snatch his tortoise to cook and eat.

Seeing this, Yun Zui rolled his eyes speechlessly, and said: "You can raise it if you want, just for fun."

Only then did Xiao Lezi feel relieved, and holding the tortoise up, he said to Shangguan Erlan, "My mother, I want to raise it!"

"it is good."

After playing all morning, at noon, the three enjoyed delicious seafood in a pavilion.Poor little Lezi, who doesn't know how to handle lobsters, has a hard time eating them.In the end, Shangguan Erlan and Yun Zui took turns peeling him off and feeding him to be considered complete.

In the afternoon, Xiao Lezi had to play whatever he said, but he, the few of them played until after the afternoon, and then drove back to the capital in a carriage.

As soon as they returned to the other courtyard, Shangguan Erlan's mother and son were so tired that they didn't even want to take a bath, and fell asleep hugging each other.

This sleep did not end until noon the next day.

While the mother and son were getting dressed, the butler asked the maid to report. "Princess, someone from the palace has been waiting for you all morning."

The hand that was tying the small belt on Xiao Lezi stopped, and turned to look over, "Imperial Palace?" Could it be that Yun Zui was right, the emperor really wanted to invite their mother and son to live in the palace?It's not in line with the rules.

"Yes, I've been waiting all morning. Someone told me not to disturb the wangfei's rest. You wake up, wangfei, and report later." The maid said, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. This life and treatment are different, even the emperor are willing to wait.

Shangguan Erlan was very satisfied with this, and knew that her rest should not be disturbed.He said: "Go over and tell the people that we are awake, and we will go over after eating something."

"Yes." The maid stepped back.

Shangguan Erlan took Xiao Lezi's coat from the handmaiden at the side, put it on him, carried him off the bed, and said to him: "Are you hungry? Let's have something to eat, and we may have to enter the palace later, don't make trouble." Do you know about your temper?" The recent restlessness of this little one made her really uneasy.But after yesterday, today should be better.

Xiao Lezi nodded, not sure if he understood.

They didn't have any appetite just after waking up, so they both ate some porridge and headed to the living room.

From a distance, as soon as the people in the living room saw their mother and son approaching slowly, the old eunuch who had been sitting and waiting hurriedly stood up and greeted him, "This old servant pays homage to Princess Lianyang."

Shangguan Erlan smiled and said: "Eunuch, you don't need to be too polite. I wonder why Eunuch came here early in the morning?"

When the father-in-law saw that Shangguan Erlan was neither humble nor overbearing, and behaved gracefully, he couldn't help but give her a full mark as a princess.This is the temperament and posture that a princess should have.He bowed and said: "The emperor heard that the princess and the young prince arrived in the capital ahead of schedule, so he specially ordered this old slave to welcome the princess into the palace. Before the regent arrives, he can take care of the princess and the prince. So as not to neglect the princess."

Shangguan Erlan smiled, this emperor really knows how to behave. "I'm sorry for the trouble of the emperor of Huanyue Kingdom, but our mother and son got separated from our grandpa on the way. We happened to meet Qi Zihan on the way, so we went to Huanyue Kingdom with him ahead of schedule. It still alarmed the emperor of your country."

After hearing the words, the father-in-law understood why the concubine arrived early, and said: "Princess is polite, please clean up, and first follow the old slave into the palace to meet the emperor."

Shangguan Erlan nodded, since everyone knew that she would not go into the palace to pay a visit, in terms of etiquette, it was really not good.

Having seen the emperor of a country, of course Shangguan Erlan can't just go in with such an outfit, it's unreasonable and it will make people think she's rude.As a princess, of course she had to enter the palace in the outfit of a princess.

Shangguan Erlan went back and changed into a fine attire, and changed Xiao Lezi into a white robe again. With the big identities on their heads, the two followed their father-in-law all the way in the direction of the palace.

When the people on the road saw such a huge battle, they came out of Qi Zihan's other courtyard, and they all guessed that it was the princess regent who had arrived in the capital of Huanyue Kingdom ahead of time.Many people poked their heads to see the people in the carriage, but unfortunately, there was nothing but a shadow, and the people were a little disappointed.

Xiao Lezi in the carriage was lying by the window, and the chubby hand lifted up the curtains a little, and looked at the crowds of people outside with a pair of big eyes.

People outside will know that this is a child's as soon as they see these big eyes.

"Look, this is the young son of Lianyang Kingdom!" Someone in the crowd shouted, and they all looked this way.Instead of letting go of the curtain, Xiao Lezi poked out half of her head.When the common people saw this, they couldn't help but sigh, this little prince looks so good.

Xiao Lezi's curtains were drawn a little too wide, and many people also saw Shangguan Erlan inside. Everyone who saw them opened their eyes in amazement, and followed the carriage to take a few more glances.

Seeing the little guy kept looking outside, Shangguan Erlan stretched out his hand to hug him, and the curtain fell because of this.The people can't help but feel disappointed that they can't see the princess anymore.

"My mother, it's so lively outside." Xiao Lezi said in Shangguan Erlan's arms, if this was the Imperial Capital of Lianyang Kingdom, the little guy would have been impatient to sit down and run away.But, after all, it's not his own territory, Xiao Lezi is so ruthless, not so daring.

"You can't go out even if it's lively."

Xiao Lezi stretched out his chubby hands to hug her neck, and asked softly, "When can we go home?" No matter how good this place is, it can't compare to my own territory.

"Didn't you make a noise to follow me? Why don't you like it?" Shangguan Erlan teased him with a smile.

For a moment, Xiao Lezi didn't know how to answer, so he simply buried his little head in Shangguan Erlan's arms and remained silent.Isn't he thinking that there will be no mother and father around him, so he can't bear it?It will be too late for him to regret it.

Seeing him like this, Shangguan Erlan couldn't help chuckling.She felt that bringing him out was entertaining her.

After a while, the carriage stopped at the gate, knowing that Shangguan Erlan could not be wronged, the emperor even prepared a sedan chair.Shangguan Erlan sat comfortably on the palanquin, carried by the palace servants, and entered the palace of Huanyue Kingdom.

The eunuch who followed said to her: "Princess, the emperor is receiving the envoys. You will be received by Concubine Rong first." Seeing that Shangguan Erlan was silent, the eunuch hurriedly explained: "There is no queen in the harem. When Concubine Rong is the emperor or prince His side concubine, the emperor has not yet made a concubine, and we only have the noble concubine as the hostess in the entire harem." As he spoke, he carefully looked at Shangguan Erlan's face.

Shangguan Erlan nodded, he understood.

The sedan chair stopped in front of a palace in the harem, Shangguan Erlan looked up, and saw the three big gilt characters of "Ronghua Palace" hanging high above it.

At the gate of the palace, more than a dozen court ladies had been waiting for a long time. When they saw the palanquin approaching, they greeted Shangguan Erlan together and saluted Shangguan Erlan.

Shangguan Erlan hugged Xiao Lezi and drove her down from the sedan chair. The ladies in the palace lowered their heads when they saw this, they were stunned, they had never seen a princess holding a child in her own hands.It's not that he can't be hugged, but that the child is small, and holding him will inevitably wrinkle his clothes, which is not good-looking.

Shangguan Erlan didn't care, she put Xiao Lezi down, straightened her clothes, took Xiao Lezi's hand and walked past them towards the palace gate.Gongmen quickly followed suit.

As soon as she stepped into this magnificent palace, she saw a gracefully dressed woman walking towards her with a smile.Seeing Shangguan Erlan, he came over to hold her hand affectionately, and said with a familiar smile: "I knew that the princess would arrive early, and I wanted to invite the princess to the palace yesterday, but I didn't expect the princess to take the little prince to the beach Playing, the emperor and I have been thinking about it all the time, and today we can be regarded as looking forward to the princess, and sit inside."

Concubine Rong's intimacy did not make Shangguan Erlan feel disgusted, so she personally led her into the hall.While talking to her: "You Lao Guifei and the emperor of Huanyue Kingdom remember that children are more naughty and want to play. It just so happened that he knew Yun Zui again, so he asked Yun Zui to take him to play. This has been a crazy day .”

Seeing that she could call Yun Zui by the name of Yun Zui without hesitation, Concubine Rong felt even more certain.Looking down at the child on her side, she couldn't help but smile, and asked, "Did you play well yesterday?"

When Xiao Lezi heard someone asking him something, he nodded hurriedly.

"Le'er has just arrived in a strange place, and she hasn't been calm recently." Shangguan Erlan's words told Concubine Rong that the child is still young, and it is normal not to answer your words.

How could Concubine Rong care about a child, she took Shangguan Erlan to sit on the high seat, and asked with concern: "How is the princess doing these few days? Is there anything negligent in the Qi family courtyard?"

"No. Qi Zihan is my husband's nephew, and he takes good care of him."

"That's good. We know that the princess is in the capital, but we don't know, and we are worried that someone will neglect the princess and the little prince. It's so good." Concubine Rong felt relieved, suddenly remembered something, and said: "I heard The day before yesterday, Duke Qin’s youngest daughter, Qin Miao, and the third lady of the Qi family went to the other courtyard to make a big fuss, Wangfei, don’t worry, we will definitely give you an explanation for this matter.” Once we found out that the other courtyard lived was from Lianyang Kingdom. The concubine, concubine Rong Gui and the emperor all angrily reprimanded Qin Guogong's family and the Qi family, and said that if the concubine wants to pursue them, they will not take sides.

The first time the princess came here, she was offended by their fake eyes. This is not to provoke the friendship between the two countries.In addition, Concubine Rong admired her even more after she knew that this princess was the one who made Yun Xiao willing to stay in Lianyang Kingdom and stoop to be a bodyguard.She knew very well that if she hadn't subdued Yun Xiao, it would have been impossible for Yun Yang to easily obtain the throne.

"That bad woman!" Before Shangguan Erlan could speak, Xiao Lezi who was standing at her feet was the first to be dissatisfied. This kid still has grudges!

Concubine Rong Gui has a son who is still in her infancy, and it is only ten months old now.Seeing Xiao Lezi, Fangfo saw her own son at this age, and looked at him with affection, and asked, "Who does Xiao Shizi say is a bad woman?"

"That bad woman!" That's how Xiao Lezi replied, a bad woman is a bad woman anyway, he couldn't remember Qin Miao's name, so he called it after the bad woman's bad woman.

Concubine Rong looked at Shangguan Erlan strangely, as if she needed an explanation.

"It's Qin Miao. He still holds grudges." As she spoke, she reached out and tapped his little forehead. This brat, who knows how to hold grudges like this.

After a long time, Shangguan Erlan realized who he looked like.This vengeful nature is exactly the same as that person's, even the method is the same.

Seeing his cute appearance, Concubine Rong couldn't help laughing, and asked seriously: "How does the little prince want to punish the bad woman? Aunt Rong will avenge you!"

She spoke so seriously that Xiao Lezi's eyes lit up, "Really? Are you willing to avenge me?"

Shangguan Erlan sat and listened, this kid is really easy to fool.
