Not long after Princess Yilin left, Tang Cheng forgot about her and took Dabao for a stroll in the mansion. The warm and gentle early spring sunshine fell on their bodies, making them feel comfortable and relaxed.
The Duke Zhenguo's Mansion is peaceful nowadays. The Duke's two concubines behave themselves and play mahjong when they have nothing to do.
After a stroll, Tang Cheng returned to Wutong Yard. After Dabao fell asleep after drinking milk, she sat lazily in the yard to bask in the sun.
"Zhenzhu, do you think Wen Huaian will receive the puppet I sent tonight?"
Tang Cheng couldn't wait for Wen Huaian to receive her surprise.
"Even if the team escorting the grain travels day and night for two days, they won't go too far. If they ride at full speed, they should be able to arrive by the evening." Zhenzhu thought for a moment and replied.
After all, it's a large amount of food and fodder being transported, how fast can it be
Tang Cheng held up his chin and said, "I think so too. Insomnia is not pleasant. I feel tortured even if I can't sleep for one night, let alone three consecutive nights. Wen Huaian is really pitiful."
Pearl was speechless: "..."
The young lady really believes that her son-in-law will suffer from insomnia.
Maybe my son-in-law is so tired from traveling every day that he falls asleep at night.
Pearl would not say such things foolishly, she would just agree with a few words.
After talking about the doll, Pearl asked about another matter in a tangled manner.
"Miss, the day after tomorrow is the wedding day of Prince Rong. Do you really want to attend the wedding banquet?"
The lady is pregnant now, why should she join in the fun
Pearl felt a headache just thinking about it.
Tang Cheng nodded as a matter of course: "Of course I have to go. Prince Rong and I are friends. When I got married, he gave me a cart of dowry as a gift. Of course I have to attend his wedding banquet. Zhenzhu, don't forget to prepare a good gift."
Tang Cheng is a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment. She remembers everyone who is good to her.
"I'm afraid you'll ruin Prince Rong's wedding." Zhenzhu said fearlessly.
Accidents always happen where there are ladies.
It would be strange if Pearl wasn't worried.
Tang Cheng had a fierce look on his face.
"Pearl, you're overthinking it. How could I mess up his wedding?"
"I am afraid that someone will attack you at the wedding banquet of Prince Rong."
This is why Pearl doesn't want the young lady to attend the wedding banquet.
Tang Cheng disagreed: "Zhenzhu, don't worry too much. No one dares to cause trouble at the wedding banquet of Prince Rong."
Finally, Tang Cheng felt that we should take precautions before the eventuality occurs. It is better to be safe than sorry, she added.
"Even if someone does something to me, I'm not afraid. I'll bring some stinking potion to protect myself and won't bleed at someone else's wedding."
Pearl's mouth twitched: "..."
Who brings a stink potion to a wedding reception
There is no one else except the young lady.
I hope I won't have to use it.
Otherwise, the young lady will definitely be blacklisted by Princess Rong.
When the master and servant were talking about the wedding of Prince Rong, Princess Rong looked at her son with a worried look on her face.
"Son, can you talk to Tang Si and let her rest assured and take care of the baby so that she doesn't have to attend your wedding?"
Princess Rong now deeply regrets having someone send the wedding invitation to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
If there had been no invitation, Tang Si would not have agreed to attend his son's wedding.
Prince Rong was surprised: "Mother, didn't you say that you wanted me to share in Tang Si's happiness?"
Princess Rong glared at him and said, "You can get this good fortune anytime. After you get married, you can ask your wife to visit Tang Si at the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion."
"I am also thinking about Tang Si. After all, she is pregnant. There will be a lot of people coming and going on the wedding day. What if she eats something she shouldn't and gets into trouble? Mother doesn't have the ability to guarantee that all the servants will be fine."
Princess Rong tried to persuade him earnestly.
The more Prince Rong listened, the more he felt something was wrong, and his brows furrowed slightly.
"Mom, you already knew that Tang Si would attend your son's wedding, but you never said anything. Why did you suddenly change your mind today?"
"Don't try to fool me with other excuses!"
Princess Rong moved her lips, and finally took out a secret letter with a wry smile.
"You will understand after reading this letter."
The moment Prince Rong saw the letter, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
He quickly took the letter and opened it. His handsome face suddenly changed, his eyes were full of astonishment, shock, anger and disbelief.
"Queen Mother, how could the Queen Mother do this?"
He actually asked his mother to give Tang Si a fatal drug, intending to kill Tang Si at his wedding.
He also wants to drag my mother and the entire Prince Rong's Mansion into this.
The Queen Mother... The Queen Mother is absolutely insane!
"That's why I want you to come forward and let Tang Si find an excuse not to attend your wedding."
Princess Rong smiled bitterly helplessly.
The other party was the high and mighty Queen Mother, who so blatantly ordered her, the princess, to murder Tang Si, and was not afraid at all that she would be exposed.
Princess Rong was terrified.
As long as Tang Si didn't come, she could ignore the Queen Mother's order.
In order to let her son give birth to a grandson to inherit the royal family, Princess Rong had long since stopped being involved in bloodshed.
Princess Rong would never agree to take action against the pregnant Tang Si.
But the other party was the Empress Dowager who was a hypocrite in heart and said Buddha's name was Buddha. Princess Rong was afraid that she would bear a grudge against Prince Rong and attack her son in his mansion.
Prince Rong's handsome face was gloomy and he exuded a coldness. He quickly put the letter away in his arms.
"Mom, I'm going to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion."
After saying that, he turned and strode away.
Princess Rong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Tang Cheng was surprised when she learned that Prince Rong's son came to see her. Prince Rong was getting married the day after tomorrow, so it was strange for him to come at this time.
Tang Cheng was a little curious.
"Please invite Prince Xiao to Wutong Courtyard."
Prince Rong arrived very quickly, and Tang Cheng was even more surprised when he saw his gloomy and ugly face.
She was about to get married, but she looked so unhappy. What had happened? Tang Cheng showed some concern for her.
"Prince Xiao, what's wrong with you? You've encountered difficulties. Don't worry, as your friend, I will help you."
Prince Rong said nothing and handed a letter to Tang Cheng: "You will understand after reading this letter."
Tang Cheng took the letter curiously and opened it to read.
Seeing this, Tang Cheng smiled.
"I thought it was some big deal, but it turns out the Queen Mother is going to attack me."
Prince Rong was stunned: “…” Tang Si’s reaction was wrong.
"Tang Si, you're not angry?"
Tang Cheng threw the letter on the table without a care in the world, and looked at Prince Rong with a smile: "It's no big deal. Ever since I asked the Queen Mother for 100,000 taels of gold, the Queen Mother has loved me deeply and has been watching me closely!"
Pearl and the others twitched their lips: "..."
Prince Rong was speechless. All his anger and worries about his friend Tang Si were instantly extinguished by Tang Cheng's bizarre reaction.
"Tang Si, aren't you worried?"
Tang Cheng waved his hand: "What is there to worry about? I have already prepared myself. The Queen Mother loves me so much, and as a junior, I should reciprocate and show my filial respect to the Queen Mother."
Prince Rong: "..."
Tang Si is still the same Tang Si, and Prince Rong feels relieved.
Pearl and others: “…”
In the end, Tang Cheng decided to attend the wedding of Prince Rong as scheduled. As long as she didn't eat the food at the wedding banquet, it would be fine.
As for other means, Tang Cheng is not afraid of anything.
"Don't worry, I won't let the Queen Mother vent her anger on Prince Rong's Mansion. I will prepare my own meals on your wedding day."
Bring your own meals…
Upon hearing this, Prince Rong was so upset that he could only let her go.
I just hope her stink potion doesn't come in handy.
Otherwise, he would feel sick just thinking about the huge Prince Rong’s Mansion being filled with stench on his wedding day and becoming famous throughout the capital.
After Prince Rong left, Tang Cheng was anxiously preparing to give a proper reply to the Queen Mother.
It’s exciting just thinking about it.
…
On the other side, Wen Huaian waited for Tang Cheng's surprise before nightfall.
A tiger puppet.
Wen Huaian was speechless for a long time. He was on his way to transport food and fodder. Why did Tang Tang suddenly give him such a big tiger doll
He looked at the guard.
"What's going on?"
The guard replied respectfully, "Your Highness, this is a puppet that the young lady had made specially for you because she was worried that you might suffer from insomnia."
Wen Huaian touched the soft and smooth fur of the tiger puppet and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Are you worried that I will suffer from insomnia?"
The guard continued to reply respectfully, "Yes, because the young lady couldn't sleep the first night you left, so she asked the embroidery room to make two dolls, one for the young lady and one for you."
"With the doll, the young lady slept well last night."
The guard told Butler Tang everything he had said.
Wen Huaian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but a hint of joy rose in his heart.
It seems that his strategy of boiling a frog in warm water worked, and Tang Tang finally took notice of him.
Wen Huaian held the other tiger doll that belonged to him tenderly and stroked it, with the corners of his mouth raised high and a gentle smile in his eyes.
The puppet was so big that anyone with eyes could see it. The deputy grain transport officer and other officers and soldiers escorting the grain soon realized that this was the big puppet that Miss Tang had sent to Master Wen at full speed. Their eyes widened, and they quietly pricked up their ears to secretly listen to the conversation between Master Wen and the guards, and were caught off guard and fed a mouthful of dog food.
Fourth Miss Tang really knows how to have fun.
Show affection.
That night, Wen Huaian fell asleep holding the tiger.
