The thoughts on Tang Cheng's face were clear at a glance, and Wen Huaian had a bad feeling in his heart.
The next moment, his bad premonition was confirmed.
"Wen Huaian, can I bring Dabao with you to the border?"
Tang Cheng asked eagerly, his beautiful almond eyes full of hope.
Her fighting power was strong enough to allow her to move around easily in this ancient time, and she wouldn't be a burden even if she went to the border.
Who knows, I might even be able to show my skills on the battlefield. Just thinking about it makes my blood boil.
Of course, Tang Cheng also knew that the possibility of Wen Huaian agreeing to what he proposed was extremely low, but he still had to give it a try. Maybe Wen Huaian would agree
What
Go to the border with him
Wen Huaian thought he had heard wrongly, and after he confirmed with Tang Cheng, his handsome face was shocked.
When Tang Cheng was pregnant with Dabao, she was so active and restless that he was always worried that Dabao would be lost if he wasn't careful. Now that Tang Cheng is pregnant with her second child, she still can't change her temper. This time, it's even more outrageous. She even had the crazy idea of taking the three-month-old Dabao with him to the border to deliver food and grass...
Wen Huaian was shocked, and after he came to his senses he smiled helplessly.
"Tangtang, stop making trouble. I'm going to deliver food and fodder to the soldiers at the border, not to go sightseeing. Also, you're pregnant now, and Dabao is only three months old. He's too young to travel far."
Tang Cheng said confidently, "Don't worry, Dabao and I won't get sick easily, unless someone poisons me. Otherwise, even if I jump up and down every day, the baby in my belly will be fine, and I won't delay you from sending food and fodder to let the soldiers at the border starve. I have this awareness."
"Anyway, I just want to go out for a walk and see the scenery outside. It's too boring to stay in the capital."
Tang Cheng tried very hard to persuade Wen Huaian.
Wen Huaian: “…”
"Tang Tang, I know you are in good health, but this is not a reason for me to reject you. I am here on a mission under the order of the emperor. The people accompanying me are all soldiers who are escorting food and fodder. Family members are strictly prohibited from accompanying me!"
Tang Cheng just wanted to test it out, but she didn't expect that she really couldn't go, so she stopped worrying about it. When she was about to give up, she suddenly remembered the Stink Potion No. 2. If she used it on the battlefield, a large number of enemies would fall down, and she could capture the enemy without bloodshed. She believed that the emperor would definitely not let go of this powerful weapon.
If she agreed to make a batch of stinking potion for the soldiers guarding the border...
Maybe she can travel according to the emperor's order. It makes her happy just thinking about it.
"Wen Huaian, I will go to the palace to see the emperor tomorrow."
Wen Huaian didn't expect Tang Cheng to suddenly change the subject, and his eyebrows jumped: "Why do you suddenly want to enter the palace?"
Tang Cheng smiled mysteriously: "You will know when the time comes. Please help me pass on a message to the emperor. I think the emperor will be happy to see me."
Wen Huaian: “…”
Has Tang Tang not given up yet and is planning to follow the emperor's path
Wen Huaian held his forehead with his hand, but still agreed. He didn't think that the emperor, such a wise ruler, would let Tang Tang go to the border with him.
Tang Cheng was very happy.
The next day, the weather was not good. It was drizzling and the wind blew, bringing a slight chill.
After receiving the imperial edict to enter the palace, Tang Cheng immediately changed into a bright crimson flowered jacket and skirt, tied her hair into a simple bun, pinned it with a jeweled pearl hairpin decorated with a few silk flowers, and wore a jeweled jade bracelet on her wrist. This simple attire did not detract from Tang Cheng's beauty at all.
She excitedly took the Duke's Mansion's carriage into the palace. When she arrived at the gate of the palace, she saw Wen Huaian in official uniform, with an attendant holding an oil-paper umbrella standing beside him.
Tang Cheng waited for the carriage to stop in front of Wen Huaian. She stuck her head out of the carriage, smiled brightly and waved at Wen Huaian.
"Wen Huaian, get on the carriage quickly. The emperor has allowed me to ride in the carriage to the palace for an audience."
Wen Huaian raised his lips slightly: "Okay."
The carriage quickly entered the palace unimpeded.
The guards guarding the palace gate were shocked as they watched the carriage drive away.
Fourth Miss Tang actually entered the palace, and she entered in a carriage. Thinking of Fourth Miss Tang's brutal behavior that brought disaster to the imperial palace every time she entered the palace, I wonder if she will do anything weird this time.
The guard wiped the cold sweat silently.
Imperial Study
The emperor quickly dealt with the urgent memorials and put down his imperial pen to wait for Tang Si to arrive. He was very curious about the purpose of Tang Si's visit to the palace.
After a stick of incense, the emperor finally met Tang Si.
After not seeing each other for some time, Tang Si's complexion was as rosy as ever. She looked even more beautiful and confident, with the aura of a prince's wife.
It seems that Tang Si is living a comfortable and happy life in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and those messy rumors have no effect on her at all.
The emperor smiled.
After Wen Huaian respectfully paid his respects, Tang Cheng also bowed to the emperor.
"Your Majesty!"
The emperor ignored Wen Huaian and looked at Tang Cheng with interest. He asked directly, "Tang Si, are you in such a hurry to see me? Is there something important?"
When facing Tang Si, the emperor was used to getting straight to the point.
Tang Cheng quickly followed suit: "There is indeed something that requires the emperor's help."
Eunuch Fu: “…”
Fourth Miss Tang is really rude.
The emperor took a few sips of tea and asked with a smile, "What's the matter? Tell me."
Tang Chengqing cleared his throat and said, "Your Majesty, I am very grateful to the soldiers guarding the border for not fearing life and death to resist the invasion of foreign enemies and protect the people of Da Zhou with their lives. As a citizen of Da Zhou, I have decided to do my part."
Wen Huaian felt both angry and amused when he saw Tang Tang speaking righteously.
Tang Tang originally wanted to follow the emperor's path, and it seems that Tang Tang has not given up on following him to the border.
Wen Huaian didn't think the emperor would agree to Tang Cheng's request.
Eunuch Fu was stunned.
The emperor was amused by Tang Cheng's righteous look as if he wanted to contribute to the Great Zhou. He glanced at Wen Huaian and guessed a little about Tang Si's purpose of coming to the palace to ask for a meeting.
"Tang Si, I am very pleased that you have this intention, but you are pregnant now. The Great Zhou is full of talented people, and it has not yet fallen to the point where women are needed to protect the Great Zhou."
Tang Cheng slowly revealed his trump card: "But they don't know how to make stinky potion."
"Your Majesty, you also know that the stinking potion I made can knock people unconscious instantly. If it is used on the battlefield, it will definitely reduce casualties. Even if the enemy is prepared afterwards, it is impossible for them to cover their mouths and noses and block air."
Odor Potion...
Wen Huaian suddenly realized that this was the reason Tang Tang had the confidence to convince the emperor.
He should have thought of it earlier.
It would have been fine if Tang Cheng didn't mention the stinking potion, but he got a headache as soon as he mentioned the emperor.
But Tang Si was right. The border has been unstable recently and a war is about to break out. Tang Si's stinky potion can indeed influence the outcome of the war.
But the emperor was not so cruel as to force Tang Si, a pregnant woman, to make the stinking potion.
"Tang Si, you've said so much, you don't want to go to the border with Wen Aiqing to deliver food and grass, do you?"
Tang Cheng said happily, "Your Majesty is wise!" He immediately guessed her purpose.
The emperor's mouth twitched. Did Tang Si forget that she was pregnant? He looked at Wen Huaian: "Lord Wen, what do you think?"
Wen Huaian said respectfully: "I obey the emperor." He believed that the emperor would not agree to let Tang Tang go to the border.
emperor:"… "
"Tang Si, you are pregnant and it is not suitable for you to travel far. We can talk about refining the stench potion later."
Tang Cheng's eyes widened.
Was she rejected by the emperor
Tang Cheng left the palace with Wen Huaian in a depressed mood. As soon as they returned to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, the drizzle showed signs of turning into light rain.
The weather is not good.
Today is not a good day to enter the palace.
It seems this is God's will.
Tang Cheng's depressed mood disappeared. He asked the nanny to bring Dabao to play with him, and he smiled happily.
Wen Huaian, who was about to comfort Tang Cheng, said: "..."
