Chapter 242 County Princess Feng, Bullying a Child
Situ Yuan guessed correctly, Xie Ying did it on purpose.
She could make Yang Tao unconscious, but still deliberately caused him to feel a sharp pain in his heart.
Such pain would neither take his life nor leave any sequelae, but it would arouse the rage of Emperor Taihe and Concubine Jiang, making them hate the mastermind behind the incident even more.
Even though the two of them didn't know that Empress Chen was a poison master, they still took their anger out on Empress Chen and Concubine Li.
After confirming that Yang Tao was not seriously injured, Emperor Taihe immediately gave an order in a deep voice: "Come! Take these two vicious women away and interrogate them strictly!"
Soon Empress Chen and Concubine Li were taken away, and the servants were also arrested.
When the eldest princess saw that the situation was not good, she decisively asked to leave, not wanting to get involved in this mess.
Emperor Taihe was about to agree, but then he heard Concubine Jiang say, "Your Majesty, Tao'er has been quite frightened this time. Why don't you let Yuan'er and Yingying stay with him in the palace? After a few days, when Tao'er feels better, you can send them out of the palace."
Emperor Taihe took a closer look and saw Yang Tao staring at the direction where Concubine Li was being taken away, so he had to agree.
The eldest princess had no choice but to stay in the palace and suggested sending someone to report her safety to Xie Ying's parents so as not to worry them.
Emperor Taihe simply agreed. Seeing that Xie Ying's skin was still red, he remembered her sudden burst of crying.
Thinking that it was because of her crying that the true identity of Queen Chen was revealed and the biological child of Concubine Jiang was found.
Emperor Taihe looked at the chubby Xie Ying and couldn't help but suspect that this fat girl was also the lucky star of him and Concubine Jiang.
So he said decisively: "This child is indeed a blessed one. Let's make her the Princess of Fu'an County."
So, when Tu Jiaojiao saw Lady Zhou, she heard a piece of news that surprised her greatly -
"His Highness brought the young master and Yingying to the palace. The Empress Dowager, His Majesty, and Concubine Jiang all liked Yingying very much and decided to keep her in the palace for a few days. They also conferred the title of Princess of Fu'an County on Yingying!"
Tu Jiaojiao's heart was beating like a drum. She was happy for her daughter, but also worried about her situation in the palace.
She asked anxiously, "Sister Zhou, I wonder how long Yingying will stay in the palace? After all, she is too young and doesn't understand things yet. I'm afraid she might disturb the noble lady."
"Don't worry, His Highness is staying in the palace and won't let anything happen to Yingying. Besides, Yingying is very lovable, and His Majesty and the Queen Mother are both kind and wouldn't make things difficult for a little girl like Yingying."
How could Tu Jiaojiao feel at ease?
But she knew that she was powerless and it was useless to say more, so she could only hold the hand of Lady Zhou and beg her pitifully to take good care of Xie Ying.
Lady Zhou was very polite. Xie Ying had now been given the title of Xiao Zhu, and it was obvious that Emperor Taihe was very satisfied with her, so she naturally wanted to make friends with Tu Jiaojiao.
She also whispered, "Recently, someone has been slandering Mr. Xie for being unfilial and even proposed stripping him of his honors. Someone must be behind this.
But you and Mr. Xie don't have to worry. His Majesty and Concubine Jiang both like Yingying very much and will definitely not delay Mr. Xie's imperial examination.
Just advise Mr. Xie to prepare carefully and strive for admission, and don't worry about anything else."
Tu Jiaojiao agreed repeatedly and said a lot of good things to express her gratitude to Ms. Zhou.
After Lady Zhou left, she immediately found Xie Xiu and quietly told him the news.
After listening to this, Xie Xiu quickly analyzed, "Something must have happened in the palace today, otherwise His Majesty would never have so easily appointed Yingying as the County Lady, and Lady Zhou would not have been so polite.
You don't have to worry, Yingying should be safe in the palace, just wait for her to come back."
Tu Jiaojiao nodded, but she was a little curious: What happened in the palace?
She didn't dare ask Xie Xiu, as matters in the palace were not their business.
It would be better to wait for Yingying to come back and see if we can hear any news from the palace.
Xie Ying stayed in the palace like this.
She and Situ Yuan stayed in Renshou Palace temporarily to accompany the silly Yang Tao.
This poor child was obviously very shocked, and I don’t know if he will become stupid from now on.
Xie Ying was thinking when she saw Yang Tao looking at her.
There was no way. She kept looking at Yang Tao. How could this poor child bear it?
He looked at Xie Ying pitifully, but when he saw that she was still a baby, his expression became much more normal.
She also took the initiative to talk to Situ Yuan: "She is really fat, no wonder she is the little lucky star."
Situ Yuan seemed to have heard something outrageous, and quickly moved his butt to the side to distance himself from him.
She insisted desperately, "Yingying is not fat."
The honest child Yang Tao: “???”
He looked at Xie Ying, then at Situ Yuan, and finally couldn't help but say, "She's obviously so much fatter than you! And you actually said she's not fat! Look, her face and arms are all fleshy!"
Xie Ying's eyes widened in dissatisfaction: [Boy! I've tolerated you for a long time!]
Situ Yuan was afraid that she would get so angry that she would suddenly do something cruel to Yang Tao, so he quickly said, "Yingying doesn't like people saying she's fat, and she's really not fat."
After a pause, he added: "You are too thin."
Yang Tao narrowed his eyes, suddenly feeling a little unhappy: "Whose brother are you?"
He is obviously my cousin!
Unexpectedly, a baby voice suddenly came from the side: "Giggle..."
Yang Tao turned his head in disbelief and saw Xie Ying looking at him eagerly: "Hehe..."
Yang Tao's face flushed with excitement and he looked at Situ Yuan in disbelief: "Did you hear that? She called me brother!"
Situ Yuan: “!!!”
Why am I suddenly so jealous?
It's obvious that Lao Liu is plotting against people again. What on earth is there to be happy about, silly boy?
However, Yang Tao was already very happy. It was the first time he heard someone call him brother!
So he even forgot about the sadness and uneasiness he had just felt, and kept coaxing Xie Ying: "Come on, call her again."
Xie Ying opened her eyes wide and pretended to be stupid.
So Yang Tao continued to coax: "Yingying, be good and call me brother, brother - brother -"
Xie Ying continued to play dumb.
Yang Tao continued to coax her tirelessly, calling her "brother" countless times.
The eldest princess standing by: "???"
Why does she feel that Yingying is taking advantage of Taoer?
Illusion?
How old is Yingying? How can she understand all this?
She must be overthinking it!
Situ Yuan: “…”
He felt that he had no eyes to watch.
This guy is so shameless that he even bullies a seven-year-old child!
Finally, just when Yang Tao was tired of shouting and wanted to give up, Xie Ying shouted again: "Haha..."
She also smiled sweetly at Yang Tao.
Yang Tao was instantly revived to full health, and the whole person seemed to be surrounded by rainbow bubbles, smiling like a little fool.
So, when Emperor Taihe and Concubine Jiang had people surround Fengyi Palace, clean up Huaqing Palace, arrange a room for Yang Tao, and come together to pick him up, they heard Yang Tao's "chuckle" as soon as they got outside.
The two looked at each other and were extremely surprised: when they left earlier, their son was still very frightened, so why was he smiling so happily now?
