But She’s So Charming - Chapter 54
King Ying stepped forward with a straight face.
“Didn’t it mean that my stomach hurts?”
Tang Wu’s little face blushed, and seeing his voice very cold, the grapes that had just entered his mouth couldn’t help but stay in his mouth, and he immediately rounded his cheeks.
They dare not chew or swallow.
But this grape really made her a little embarrassed. Tang Wu could only secretly start chewing while he hadn’t continued to speak, but Tang Wu was pinched by King Ying before he swallowed the grape seeds.
“Looking at the kid in my stomach to lie to me, do you think I should punish you?”
Tang Wu was so shackled by him, tears immediately filled his eyes.
She couldn’t help but feel sad. As long as she thought of all the sins she had suffered as a mother for the first time, the shining drops of water in her eyes fell fiercely.
She has a big belly, is pregnant with his child, and is making things difficult for her mistress. Doesn’t she have no credit and no hard work?
Why is he so cruel, and he still wants to punish her?
Why is it so difficult to be a concubine?
Not to mention, when she cried, King Ying’s hand holding her chin froze.
Tang Wu was always informed and interesting with him, and even the tears flowed just right. He had never overstepped the rules, but how can I…
King Ying let go, moved his Adam’s apple, and then said: “What’s wrong?” Maybe he didn’t even notice it. As long as the crying villain on the other side sold him a miserable voice, his voice would be only one voice. Soft and soft.
Tang Wu wiped the tears with the back of his hand, struck twice, and said in a crying voice: “The concubine lied, and the concubine confessed.”
Asking her to say this, King Ying swallowed everything that was just about to be said. According to Dayan’s law, he committed a felony, as long as he traveled from the capital city.
Just like her, how could he be punished?
“Wu’er.” King Ying called softly.
Tang Wu seemed to be deaf and didn’t give her any response.
King Ying was able to catch Tang Wu’s little hand, but she drew it away dexterously. Even if King Ying didn’t understand women’s heart, he knew that she was taking a pity with him.
He wanted to open his mouth and wanted to explain, but he felt that some words were really hard to tell. In desperation, he had to reach out and put his arms around her waist to show back.
But with this hug, his slender knuckles naturally rested on Tang Wu’s belly.
The skin touched, King Ying involuntarily rubbed it twice, and he suddenly realized that her belly seemed to be as thin on both sides no matter how bulging in front of her.
How can I not even have some meat?
Tang Wu lowered his head, deliberately dripping teardrops on his hands.
At this time, King Ying even froze with his hand rubbing her stomach.
No way, he could only lower his eyelids and look at Tang Wu and said: “Don’t cry, can you?” Weeping any more, I’m afraid that his Prince Ying’s mansion will be flooded by her.
Tang Wu saw that his tone was almost soft, so she leaned her head on his shoulder, and said, “His Royal Highness doesn’t know how hard it is for my concubine to have a big belly. I can’t eat anything all day long. I finally overwhelmed it. For three months, I still can’t smell the meat…Also, the concubine is sleeping now, even if she doesn’t even dare to turn her body, for fear of crushing her stomach.”
This sound was more than a squeamish accusation, and it almost made King Ying’s heart speak.
King Ying held her face in both hands, his eyes burning and said: “Thanks for your hard work.”
In the next moment, Tang Wu followed his actions, pouting and kissing the palm of his hand, “As long as your Royal Highness stays with Wuer, Wuer won’t work hard.”
Upon hearing this, King Ying shook his head and smiled again. Listening to her changing her name, she knew that this matter had allowed her to succeed again.
He really didn’t expect that with just a few words, she would be able to turn the pampering and arrogant on her face into a pitiful one.
Yes, he wanted to educate her, but now he doesn’t need to say anything. After a while, King Ying squeezed the tip of her nose again.
Tang Wu was curled up in his arms, as if he had been drawn a bone.
When King Ying got up and blew the lamp, Tang Wu’s stomach groaned suddenly.
King Ying chuckled his lips and smiled softly, “But are you hungry?”
Tang Wu blushed and nodded.
“If you want to eat, I will ask someone to cook it for you.”
When Tang Wu thought of the bone soup that Madam Yang had prepared for her on weekdays, she instantly lost her appetite. She whispered, “The dishes in the small kitchen are not very tasty.”
King Ying looked at Tang Wu and said, “Can’t eat?”
Tang Wu shook his head and continued to buzz: “It doesn’t matter what Wuer eats… It’s just that the child might want to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake…”
After hearing this, Wang Ying sneered, “Okay, I will take you out of the house tomorrow.”
When Tang Wu heard this, his ears moved, and he couldn’t help being overjoyed.
Turning around, she put her arms around his neck, and her tongue proactively reached between his lips.
Licking back and forth, as a thank you.
The scent of grapes in her mouth immediately filled his brain.
King Ying has been a monk for several months, and now he is like a pile of dry wood in a warehouse, even if it is a little bit of sparkling behavior, he can’t bear it.
King Ying felt that since she was pregnant, she couldn’t tell what the smell was. He always provokes him and wants to smell it more.
He looked down at her slightly arched belly, and evil thoughts arose in his heart. It is said that people think very much in their minds, and there is something in their eyes. He just put up the cloak under him, and sparks flashed in his eyes.
“Is it done after the first three months?” Wang Ying said with a dumb voice.
Tang Wu bit her lip. She didn’t expect that he would be charged interest just after he gave the money. She curled her lips in her heart, but her face softly said: “The doctor Xu hasn’t diagnosed the pulse in the past few days, otherwise Your Highness …Can you wait a few more days?”
King Ying sternly nodded pretendingly.
But when Tang Wu thought that tonight has passed smoothly, he suddenly leaned over, imprisoned her, took off her little clothes and apron, and whispered: “Turn around, let Let me see.”
—
Early the next morning, Tang Wu put on the veil and went out with King Ying.
After getting off the carriage, King Ying took her to the largest restaurant on Yongyang Street—Jinjiang Pavilion.
Jinjiang Pavilion is a time-honored brand in the capital. Tang Wu has only heard of it before, but never before.
She was a little curious, so she hurried to see.
There was a mixture of fish and dragons, and there were endless carriages. King Ying was afraid that she would be lost, so he subconsciously held her wrist and said, “Let’s go.”
Tang Wu was overjoyed, and the little daughter-in-law quickly followed.
But as soon as he was about to enter this Jinjiang Pavilion, Tang Wu looked back and saw a brand new shop. The plaque on it was very interesting. It actually read the word “Zhongfu”. Thought it was an ordinary mansion.
She pulled his hand back, “Master, where is that?”
King Ying frowned and said involuntarily, “The storefront, the woman can’t go to.”
Hearing this, Tang Wu’s big eyes hidden behind the veil instantly rounded.
She couldn’t help but slander: I just didn’t want to take him there, so I wouldn’t find such a reason. There are so many women going in and out of the “Zhong Mansion”, why can’t women go…
—
King Ying took her to a box. In the middle of the box was a table of eight immortals made of red sandalwood, and three square chairs were placed in the east and west directions.
The food on the table is dazzling. Most of them are meat dishes made with vegetarian food. For example, Xihucuyu made with eggplant, sour pork sauce made with vegetarian tofu, Gongbao chicken made with mushrooms and so on.
On the very side, there is also a bowl of fragrant and sweet brown sugar baba, and the sweet-scented osmanthus cake she clamored for yesterday.
Tang Wu watched Wang Ying move all the delicate plates in front of him, and couldn’t help asking, “Your Royal Highness, won’t you eat it?”
King Ying had no interest in these dim sums, let alone these sweet-scented osmanthus cakes made into rabbits and ducks.
It’s just that he watched her eating happily, and moved two chopsticks along with it.
After a long time, he clicked the corner of his lips. Seeing that she didn’t respond, he just stretched out his hand and wiped the residue of the sweet-scented osmanthus cake with his thumb, and then whispered: “You eat slowly.”
Tang Wu behaved a little bit obediently, and immediately slowed down.
Originally this atmosphere was particularly warm, but a pair of children and mother came in the box next to each other.
There was no sound at first, and after a while, the plate fell over there.
“Shu’er, are you crazy! I didn’t tell your father about this, because if he knew your plan, he would definitely discount your legs!” a lady sternly said.
“Mother! Lord Lou, he is very kind to me.”
“Shu’er! My mother does not ask you to marry the rich and the rich and cling to the powerful! My mother only asks you to find an honest man to marry! Do you know that if you follow him, you can only be a concubine in your life? Do you know what a concubine is! A concubine is not a wife, and is not as good as your current girl’s status! The mistress has some means to pinch you! If you are pampered, you may be able to live better, but can you be pampered for a lifetime!”
“Mother, he said he would protect me and be kind to me forever.”
The wife laughed a few times and continued: “Today he will match your good color and want to accept you, and tomorrow will also match another good color, and then accept others! What will you do then! What will you do!”
“Mother, he swore a poisonous oath at me, I believe him once, will it work?”
“Although our family is not a big family in the capital, you are also a maternal daughter who grew up in the palm of her hand. You should understand! From childhood to adulthood, you can eat, drink and wear anything for you, your concubines. My sister’s clothes are not as much as you alone. Also, every three days you clamor to come to this Jinjiang Pavilion for a meal, but your sisters dare not even mention it! Shu’er! Think about it for yourself, if your child is also a **** in the future, you will have to be inferior to the eldest lady’s child in everything, are you still willing!”
As soon as these words fell, the daughter over there burst into tears.
“Shu’er, if you are persuaded to eat a full meal, go home with your mother. Mother would rather you find a poor student than give you more dowry than you would be abused like this!”
…
After crying for a while, the wing next door finally stopped moving.
But the brown sugar cake in Tang Wu’s hand was gone, so I couldn’t eat it anymore.
Not to mention what the lady next door said was right or wrong, just listening to her love and care for her daughter was enough to make Tang Wu envy.
This world is so unfair.
Some people were born with a golden key, who were born to be high-class ladies, and learned how to be a mistress, but some people were born in the dirt, even being a concubine’s room was regarded as an honor.
She suddenly remembered what Cheng Yu said to her.
Even though she knew that he was really good to herself, she also knew that Miss Tang in Goulan Washery and the daughter of Cheng’s family in the high door family had gone against each other for nearly fourteen years.
During this period of time, if you miss it, you miss it.
So even if she had to know that all of this was true, she never had the illusion that Chengjia would recognize her.
Tang Wu could hear the conversation between the children and the mother and daughter, and naturally King Ying could also hear it.
But this man and woman are different in the end. Tang Wu heard this like a needle, but King Ying only frowned slightly. Especially as a relative of the emperor, he would not have thought of these common people at all.
“His Royal Highness, my concubine is full.” Tang Wu said.
King Ying raised his hand and rubbed her hair, and said, “I’ll take you to buy some jewelry later?” Next to Jinjiang Pavilion, there is the cleared Bishui Garden.
Tang Wu shook his head, “My concubine wants to go back to the house, and I have just eaten, and I am already a little tired.” Tang Wu personally concluded that one of the biggest benefits of pregnancy is that he can be generous and lazy.
No, I only returned to the mansion. Tang Wu fell asleep on his lap before Hai.
King Ying waited for a long time, until she fell asleep, and called Chief Cao over.
“His Royal Highness has something to order?” Director Cao bowed.
“Yu Zhen’s mother passed away. He returned to Shijin. You go to Curry to buy some silver and send it to him. Also, you go to Chengguo Gong’s Mansion and send me a message, asking Cheng Yuming to come to the mansion at noon on the day. “
—
The next day, before noon, Cheng Yu was led to the east study by General Cao.
Although Cheng Yu was neatly dressed, he couldn’t hide his fatigue. The black green in his eyes seemed to have been wiped with ink.
When King Ying saw him, he was really taken aback, “Ruochen, why are you like this?” Ruochen was written by Cheng Yu. As long as King Ying met him in private, he would call him that way.
“Return to your Highness, I went a long time ago because of some personal affairs.”
Even if it explained the private affairs, King Ying didn’t have any reason to intervene at will. He just nodded and said: “If you need help, just talk to this king.”
Cheng Yu bowed to thank you.
In a moment, King Ying took out the sign engraved with “Wu” from the box on the table.
“This king has something to do to you.”
As he said, King Ying handed the “Wu” sign to Cheng Yu’s hand, “The words on this sign, I have found someone to read it, he has been passive. It was originally the word “妧” on it, yes. Later, someone deliberately changed it to the word “妩”. The yellow book of our Dayan was only registered in Jiaxuan three years ago. The previous ones were all household posts, and the household registration information was not perfect. Ruochen, this king wants to be as soon as possible. Find someone who makes this brand. From now on, you will check it door-to-door in the capital. Anyone who has registered for having a child in July of the year of Guihai, you will find out for me, and no one is allowed to leave. “
“Furthermore, the king also asked the engraver. He said that the words engraved on the back of the wooden sign are Ruyi. Under normal circumstances, the four characters Jixiangruyi are irrelevant. Guess, this sign is very likely to be a pair. Son.”
Before King Ying finished, he heard Cheng Yu pinch the sign and suddenly said: “Your Highness is wise.”
King Ying raised his eyebrows puzzled.
“His Royal Highness doesn’t have to look for it. The other piece is in my hand.”
As he said, he took out his other birthday card with the word “Yu”.
