Chapter 252: His Blessed General

Princess Consort of Qi nearly fainted after hearing that.

She sucked in a breath of cold air, wanting to ask Sui Sui who taught her that.

But when she met Sui Sui's curious gaze, Princess Consort of Qi couldn't bring herself to question further.

She thought, how could her daughter be wrong?

The mistake must be someone else's!

Today, after returning from the palace, she intended to cleanse the residence once more.

She wanted to see which bastard, tired of living, dared to corrupt her daughter!

Princess Consort of Qi was thinking about it, her expression somewhat tense.

Prince Qi, fearing she'd scare the child, gently pushed her: "Watch your expression."

Princess Consort of Qi quickly adjusted her demeanor, making herself look less stern.

Sui Sui didn't know why Father King and Mother Consort had suddenly become stern.

She tilted her head, pondering for a long time but still couldn't figure it out.

However, having heard what Father King and Mother Consort said, the little girl said, puzzled: "It was the pretty sister in my dream who taught me; she said this way, the cows and horses that can't give birth will be able to deliver smoothly!"

Thinking of this, Sui Sui raised her head proudly, smiling as she said: "The sister said cows and horses are important property and labor; we must protect them well!"

Prince Qi and Princess Consort:?

Hmm?

Although it seemed a bit strange, it sounded quite reasonable.

In the Great Summer dynasty, one cannot lightly kill plow oxen, let alone warhorses.

So, they still know the importance of cattle and horses.

But coming from a five-year-old's mouth, it feels somewhat strange.

Moreover, what is that in the dream?

Prince Qi looked puzzled at the child, then at the Princess Consort.

Princess Consort of Qi turned her head guiltily.

She still didn't know how to speak about this matter.

But Prince Qi wasn't completely dense; at this point he also realized something: "Right, you told me before about the He family's affair..."

This was hindsight; he finally remembered something.

Princess Consort of Qi didn't say much, just nodded.

Prince Qi thought carefully, then slapped his thigh; fearing to startle the child, he patted and withdrew his hand, saying: "This is a blessed general sent by heaven; our Qi Wang Fu has today as well, hahaha, Father King's dear one is a blessed general!"

Princess Consort of Qi listened on the side, heart pounding: "Lower your voice, lower it!"

Prince Qi wanted to say, what's wrong with me speaking louder?

As Prince Qi, I have a treasure; can't I even shout a bit?

However, in the end, constrained by the Princess Consort's gaze, Prince Qi modestly lifted Sui Sui up.

The carriage space isn't that large, so he couldn't lift her completely high.

But this didn't hinder Prince Qi's display; he happily lifted Sui Sui, laughing: "Father King's treasure, Sui Sui is Father King's treasure!"

Sui Sui didn't understand, but she liked Father King doing this; before, she had envied other village children who could be lifted by adults at home.

Now she has it too.

She no longer needs to envy others.

Sui Sui happily narrowed her eyes in a smile; the child's voice was clear and pleasant.

Prince Qi liked it more the more he listened; if the carriage hadn't limited his expression, he felt he could lift her even higher.

Princess Consort of Qi watched the two of them playing helplessly on the side, and didn't offer further advice.

Knowing Sui Sui wasn't corrupted by those around her, Prince Qi felt more at ease; after his excitement subsided, he intentionally probed: what does the person in Sui Sui's dream do? Why did they say such things to her?

Although, he cannot control the person in the dream.

But Prince Qi thought he should talk more with Sui Sui.

If the person in the dream is bad, we don't need to pay attention to them!

Sui Sui remembered only one thing all night: a hand inserted into the buttocks.

Now, when asked, she tilted her cute little head, thought for a while, and then said: "Allicin!"

Prince Qi and Princess Consort:?

That person in the dream is rather mystical, huh?

What is all this?

After that hand was stuck in the buttocks, do they still wash it with garlic water?

Isn't it irritating to the hand?

The couple were baffled, looking at each other, still unable to figure out what was going on.

The problem is, when asked, Sui Sui also didn't understand; the little girl shook her head blankly: "It's just allicin; it can resist infection, resist fungus."

This is already the result of Sui Sui's careful recollection.

Anything more, she really can't recall.

She is merely a five-year-old child; what she can remember is truly limited!

Mainly, she spent last night watching animal birthing animations; what the little aunt had taught before, upon waking, she forgot most of it directly.

Resist infection?

Resist fungus?

What is that then?

Prince Qi and his wife completely didn't understand.

In the end, they could only go along with Sui Sui's words and say a bit.

However, Sui Sui couldn't remember much, and in the end the topic was still led astray.

The carriage swayed for a while, and they successfully reached the Palace Gate.

After entering the Palace Gate, they could no longer ride the carriage.

As a prince, Prince Qi had noble status, and after entering the palace he could ride a sedan chair.

The family of three had two small sedan chairs.

Prince Qi held onto Sui Sui and wouldn't let go; fortunately, she was just a twenty- to thirty-pound child, not heavy……

Right!

Anyway, the sedan-bearers were specially chosen to be strong, lest they carry poorly and injure the noble person.

Princess Consort of Qi's sedan chair followed behind.

The two brought Sui Sui into the palace and first went to pay respects to the Empress Dowager.

As for the Empress, depending on His Majesty's arrangements, if needed, a trip could be made.

If there's no need, going or not going is fine.

Out of courtesy, Princess Consort of Qi could go pay respects.

Prince Qi, on the other hand, didn't need to go.

Regarding the Tang family's affair, he still held a grudge and couldn't be bothered to deal with it.

If it weren't for the Princess Consort stopping him, Prince Qi would have wanted to go into the palace to file a complaint.

However, Princess Consort of Qi said, although the Empress resides deep in the palace, she is not completely unaware of outside affairs.

Lady Tang went through all this trouble; her intention was quite obvious, and the Empress surely saw through it.

By then, the Tang family would be fighting among themselves internally, and there would be no need for them to intervene as the villains.

So there's no need to make a trip to file a complaint.

Prince Qi thought that made sense, so he simply decided to wait and see first.

If the Tang family and the Empress's side don't start internal strife, he would then add fuel to the middle, hoping to ignite the fire.

Today is the grand court assembly; officials of rank seven and above in the capital all need to attend before His Majesty.

Of course, officials of ranks six and seven all stand in the outer hall, listening for summons.

Only when needed will the corresponding officials be summoned forward.

If the grand court assembly has many matters to discuss, the dispersal of court will be later.

If there are few matters, the dispersal of court will be earlier.

Today……

It probably won't end early.

Continuous spring rain has fallen for about half a month.

There are not few matters inside and outside Jing Cheng; it's estimated that just reporting these situations would take considerable time, right?

Moreover, there are also other announcements of decisions already made, and so on.

Prince Qi thought, it would be fine if his elder brother the Emperor didn't come.

He brought the Princess Consort and Sui Sui, and getting along with the Empress Dowager was also more relaxed.

His elder brother the Emperor's aura is too strong, easily frightening young children.

If he frightened his Sui Sui badly, Prince Qi would feel heartbroken.

So it's good that his elder brother the Emperor can't come for now!

The second watch is at 19:00.
