Chapter 178: Bargaining with the Emperor
Emperor Shunde naturally understood what the Empress Dowager meant, but chose to ignore Wen Heng.
Xia Zhi was very uncomfortable watching from the sidelines, no wonder Wen Heng would become a villain, with such a father by his side, he didn't feel a trace of warmth since he was a child, it was hard not to be crooked.
What's more, what Emperor Shunde did......
Xia Zhi was a little distressed at this time, and Wen Heng was distressed.
Wen Heng naturally knew that no matter what he did, he, the father, would not look at him squarely, so he didn't care, because he didn't come back for the sake of his father's kindness and filial piety, and the family was reunited.
He was also looking at Xia Zhi, although the little girl was quiet in her heart at the moment, he still saw distress and sympathy in her eyes.
"You didn't mean...... Do you want me to take you around the capital? Wen Heng took the initiative to speak.
Xia Zhi was stunned, when did she say it?
"Huh? Oh, yes, but now ......" Xia Zhi looked at the Queen Mother, and could only find a breakthrough from this kind old lady.
The Empress Dowager smiled and nodded, "Go, it's rare to come to the capital and have fun with your brother Heng." ”
Xia Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, what is called a companion is like a companion tiger, she has a deep understanding.
However, just as the three of them were about to walk out, Emperor Shunde suddenly spoke.
"Wait!"
[What are you waiting for?] I didn't get into trouble. 】
Wen Heng's eyes lit up, and the hands under his sleeves were clenched into two fists.
"I remember that the Queen Mother loves to eat the dim sum made by your family, since she is in the capital, when will she make some more and send them to the palace."
Xia Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Wen Heng, naturally knowing that he brought the dim sum in, "I ......"
"Forget it, it's troublesome to send it to the palace, let's come to the palace to make it, the hot taste is better, and by the way, teach the people in the imperial kitchen, so as not to eat it but can't eat it in the future."
[Can't eat? That means that you agree with General Wei to leave the capital with us? 】
Wen Heng was worried about other things, but I have to say that the little girl is really good at analyzing, it seems that he, the father, has already made a decision.
[But if my little aunt enters the palace, then the emperor sees my little aunt's beauty and includes her in the harem, won't my little aunt have to go to a dead end? But if you don't let your little aunt come, how can you refuse? 】
"What's so hard about it?" Emperor Shunde asked.
"Yes!"
"Tell me about it." Emperor Shunde was not angry, although he was rejected, but there were really not many people who dared to refuse him.
This little girl seems to have really been taught, but anyone who has taught knows that she can't refuse herself.
"I ...... My family's dim sum is an exclusive secret recipe, no ...... If you can't teach others, then our family won't be able to make money. ”
The Queen Mother laughed loudly when she heard this, "You girl, you don't deceive people at all, you really love money, hehe, Your Majesty, what people said is right, since it is an exclusive secret recipe, it is not easy for outsiders to know, right?" ”
Emperor Shunde also laughed, "Then let the person who makes dim sum come to the palace to make it, and then go back when it's done, I won't let people watch it, how about it?" ”
Xia Zhi knew that it would be a bit embarrassing to refuse again.
"What if it's not delicious? Your Majesty, will my little aunt be scolded? ”
"No, it won't." Emperor Shunde said, although this child loves money, but there are a few people in the world who don't love money, and she is also very concerned about her family.
"What about a good job? Will there be a reward? Xia Zhi asked a little inch-inch.
"Got it!" Xia Chen just wanted to leave quickly with his daughter, but the little girl bargained here.
This is the Queen Mother and the Emperor.
Not a street vendor.
"You're really smart, what reward do you want?"
Xia Zhi smiled, "It is filial piety for my brother to take snacks for the Queen Mother, and it is also filial piety for you to ask my little aunt to make snacks for the Queen Mother, so my little aunt is also considered to have helped, am I right?" ”
"Yes!" Emperor Shunde looked at her with great interest, wondering what the girl was going to say next.
"Then my little aunt should be rewarded, if the Queen Mother eats happily, then let my little aunt go back in the future, and I can tell everyone that this is the Queen Mother's favorite dim sum, okay?"
This reward is not excessive, but it is also real.
Emperor Shunde asked for silver because of her, but I didn't expect it to be this, in the long run, it is much more cost-effective than asking for silver.
"Yes, so that your little aunt can earn more money?"
Xia Zhi smiled, "Well, my little aunt has made money, and she will buy me a lot of things, and I will have a share." ”
"That's right."
Xia Zhi was happy on the surface, but in his heart he was still worried about his little aunt entering the palace to make snacks.
She had to find a way to prevent the emperor from falling in love with her little aunt at a glance.
After leaving the palace, Xia Chen felt that his head was his own, and he just felt that he might fall off at any time.
"I'm scared to death, you know, you're too bold." Xia Chen patted his chest, he really felt that half his life was going to be gone, this place, whoever loves to come in the future, she will not come.
However, how could she feel familiar with such a scary place.
She couldn't help but look back at the tall red wall, solemn.
Wen Heng saw this scene and couldn't help asking, "Aunt Xia, do you feel a little familiar in the palace?" ”
Xia Chen shook his head.
"Don't you trust me?"
Xia Chen hurriedly denied it, "No, I'm just ...... It's not good, this place is so scary, I'm scared. ”
"Mother, don't be afraid, I will protect you." Xia Zhi smiled sweetly, "Look, didn't the two of us go in and come out well, there is nothing to do, and there is a reward, I earned it." ”
The youngest daughter said it easily, but Xia Chen was really scared to death.
"You, you still say, you are too bold."
Xia Zhi gritted his teeth and smiled, "Mother, you better tell the truth to your brother, so that I can help you find your family!" ”
"Yes, Aunt Xia, the imperial grandmother said so just now, I think you may have something to do with the eldest princess of Yiyang, if you can't say it, it's ......"
"How so?" Xia Chen shook his head, "How can I have such a life, if you want to say familiar, I have a little bit, but I don't know if it's not, I really don't remember anything when I was a child, I just seem to have been here, but I'm not sure, as for what you said, I really don't dare to think about it, I don't dare." ”
[Oh no, my mother is really it, that's so interesting. 】
Wen Heng and the little girl glanced at each other, and they both knew that the other party thought the same thing.
"Leave this to me." Wen Heng said.
Xia Zhi looked over, "You...... Is it convenient? ”
"Concerned about me? I didn't want to help before! Wen Heng hooked his lips.
"I ......," Xia Zhi puffed out his cheeks.
Wen Heng didn't want to embarrass a child, "Let's go, I'll send you back to the General's Mansion." ”
