Chapter 261 The Princes Dispute

Sun poured Tao Yanyan a cup of hot tea and said, "Thank you for helping me out today. I will make new clothes for you to repay your kindness."

"You're welcome. Your current situation is more or less related to me. I just didn't expect that after so long, Concubine Wang still couldn't swallow this breath."

In fact, in Tao Yanyan's opinion, Concubine Wang was just looking for trouble. Not only did she take away someone's position, but she also used petty means to punish him. She was too petty.

She asked Qingfeng to hand the design she had drawn to Sun: "Take a look at this drawing. How should the colors and fabrics be matched to look good?"

Sun took it and her eyes lit up as she saw the design drawing: "Each one is more beautiful than the other. If we make it according to your design, it will definitely set a new trend."

Tao Yanyan smiled. She knew these things only because she had watched too many costume TV dramas and movies in later generations, so she had an advantage. Compared with professional embroiderers like them, she was at most newer in terms of patterns, but she still had to listen to the embroiderers as to professionalism.

The two discussed for a few sentences, and Qingfeng gave some small suggestions from time to time, and soon they decided on the fabric and color scheme.

Sun personally measured Tao Yanyan's size, and sighed as she did so: "Your Majesty has grown a lot taller this year, and her figure has become a little plumper. A woman should have a curvy figure to look good. Your Majesty was too thin before, but now it's just the right size. No wonder His Majesty dotes on you so much. Just looking at your figure, even a woman like me is attracted to you!"

Tao Yanyan's face turned red when she was teased by Sun. When she thought of He Linzhang's excitement at night, her cheeks felt even hotter.

Fortunately, Sun quickly finished the measurements. After recording all the data, Sun said, "Then I will go to Changle Palace later to measure the sizes of the princess and the prince."

After solving the problem of new clothes, Tao Yanyan saw that it was almost time, so he went straight to pick up the baby.

When the two little ones came out, they were followed by the cute and cold-faced second princess.

When she saw that Tao Yanyan came in person to pick up the eldest princess and the second prince, while she only had a nanny to pick her up, the second princess said aggrievedly: "Madam Tao, why don't you just raise me? I also want my mother to come and pick me up."

The nanny beside her hurriedly stopped her and said, "You can't do that, Princess. The Queen is pregnant now, so she can't work too hard."

The second princess pouted, she was unhappy, really unhappy.

Tao Yanyan smiled and touched her head: "Second Princess, please come back with us. We can separate after we reach Yuhua Gate. It can be considered that I am the one who picked up the princess."

The second princess finally smiled sweetly and said, "Okay, okay, let's go together."

The nanny hurriedly thanked Tao Yanyan. Tao Yanyan nodded slightly and got on the sedan chair.

The two little ones returned to Changchun Palace, and Dongfang, who had gone out to buy sugar-roasted chestnuts, also came back. The chestnuts were a little cold, so Caiyun heated them up before serving them.

"Wow, is this sugar-roasted chestnuts? The chestnuts have shells, and it feels like they are smiling." It was the first time for the eldest princess to eat this kind of snack, and her imagination was quite rich.

Tao Yanyan peeled one for her and one for Xiao Jinan, and ate happily with the two children.

Soon, Sun came over. When she heard that she was going to make new clothes for her, they both cooperated very well. However, during the process of measuring the clothes, little Jin'an's left arm was a little difficult to lift. Tao Yanyan asked suspiciously: "Jin'an, what's wrong with your arm? Is it twisted?"

If it is dislocated, you have to ask a doctor to take a look.

Little Jin'an's eyes flickered, and he pursed his lips without saying anything. The eldest princess hesitated for a moment, then said, "Mother Tao, Jin'an had a fight with the eldest prince in elementary school today. They pushed each other, and he might have been injured at that time."

When Tao Yanyan heard this, he quickly took Xiao Jinan's hand, gently pinched his arm, and asked him to do some stretching exercises. He found that Xiao Jinan's left arm was somewhat difficult to move.

Her eyes darkened and she asked Chang Tai to ask for Doctor Liu.

Qingfeng sent Sun Xiu Niang out and was about to turn around when he was stopped by a young eunuch from Concubine De's palace who came hurriedly from a distance.

"Miss Qingfeng, please stay." The young eunuch was afraid that Qingfeng would go in, so he ran over quickly and panted, "The eldest prince's forehead was broken, and Concubine De was very angry. Please ask Concubine Tao to take the second prince to report."

Qingfeng frowned and said he understood. He sent the eunuch back first and then hurried back to the palace.

"Did he get his forehead bruised?" Tao Yanyan looked at the eldest princess and little Jin'an. "Did the eldest prince get his forehead bruised during the shoving?"

Xiao Jinan quickly denied: "He's talking nonsense. He clearly didn't hit his forehead after we had a fight, and he was fine after school. Isn't that right, sister?"

The eldest princess also nodded: "Yes, I saw the whole thing, and he didn't hit his forehead. Mother Tao, believe me, I even tried to stop the fight, and the teacher saw it too."

Tao Yanyan felt relieved. As long as it wasn't a vital part of the body, it was just a superficial injury and would be fine after some rest.

"Mother, I pushed him because I was really angry. Did I... cause trouble for you?" Xiao Jinan was very nervous.

Tao Yanyan pinched his face and said, "Can Jin'an tell me what caused the quarrel with the eldest prince?"

Xiao Jinan lowered his head, his eyes a little red, and refused to speak.

It was the eldest princess who was standing by and said, "The eldest prince said that brother Jin'an is not the biological son of the emperor, but a guest living here. He told brother Jin'an not to have any delusions or be greedy, and to go back to where he came from when he grows up."

Tao Yanyan narrowed his eyes and hugged little Jin'an tightly: "Ever since the Queen Mother recognized Jin'an as her grandson, His Majesty has written Jin'an's name into the royal jade disc. You are your father's biological son. Don't doubt it. If you don't believe it, we can ask your father in person and let your father tell you in person that you are his biological son."

Little Jinan's eyes brightened, but he still felt a little aggrieved, and he nestled in Tao Yanyan's arms and refused to get down.

The eldest princess rolled her eyes and said, "If it weren't for the fact that you were wronged today and your arm was injured, I wouldn't let you have Mother Tao's arms all to yourself."

When Tao Yanyan heard this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. What was there to argue about?

So she pulled the eldest princess over and gently put her arms around her waist: "Xuan'er, come and hug me."

The three of them were making a fuss. After Doctor Liu arrived and personally examined Xiao Jinan's arm and straightened his bones, and after they finished dinner, Tao Yanyan took Xiao Jinan to Yongxing Palace.

The eldest princess originally wanted to go with him to testify, but Tao Yanyan did not take her with him and asked her to have a good rest at home.

The innocent are innocent. Since Jin'an did not hurt the eldest prince's forehead, there is no need for him to prove his innocence.

In Yongxing Palace, Concubine De was so angry that her face turned blue. Although the eldest prince often bumped into things, this was the first time he hurt his head. So when Tao Yanyan brought little Jin'an over, Concubine De shouted angrily, "Come here, take this evil creature down and give him ten big strokes. I'll see if he dares to attack the eldest prince next time!"
