Don't blame Miss Liu for questioning her mother's ability.
Everyone in the court knew that the emperor led hundreds of officials to pray for rain because Concubine Xia thought Su Tang was very lucky and asked her to go to the northwest to pray for the refugees. The emperor felt it was his responsibility and did not listen to Concubine Xia's advice.
But the emperor's prayers for rain did not work, and the drought in the northwest became more serious. In the spirit of treating a dead horse as a living horse, maybe Concubine Xia would recommend it again, and the emperor would agree.
Miss Liu asked her mother, Princess Jingnan, if she would go to the northwest to pray for rain. Mrs. Liu blurted out three words without hesitation, "I won't go."
As a result, she refused to go just yesterday, and today the emperor ordered her to go to the northwest.
Isn’t this because her mother has never learned her skills?
Xie Boting rubbed Su Tang's hand and said, "I think Mrs. Liu is quite capable."
Su Tang smiled and said, "Anyway, there's no harm in believing."
"Huh?" Xie Boting raised his eyebrows.
Su Tang smiled and said nothing.
Soon, the carriage stopped in front of Prince Xin's Mansion.
Even Mrs. Liu knew that the emperor sent Su Tang to the northwest to pray for rain, and Prince Xin must have heard about it.
Seeing Su Tang, Mrs. Xu felt heartbroken. She, who had always been good-tempered, couldn't help scolding the emperor and said, "Is the emperor using my daughter as a mascot? She can move her wherever she is needed."
A certain mascot is embarrassed.
Not only was her mother highly skilled in martial arts, she was also described as one of the best.
Su Tang didn't say anything, but Xu said, "The emperor led all the civil and military officials to pray for rain, but it didn't work, but he wants you to go to the northwest. If something happens, your father can't spare him."
Su Tang, "......???"
Does he mean the emperor?
His father is just the Minister of Punishment, why can't he spare the emperor?
Xie Boting stood aside, flashing in his mind the image of the emperor leaving the palace to pay homage to Queen Shen and being beaten with a bruised nose and swollen face.
I have to say that my father-in-law is quite ruthless.
If something unexpected happened to Su Tang, the emperor would definitely be beaten half to death.
Seeing that Mrs. Xu was so angry, Su Tang said, "Mom, don't be angry. My daughter will just leave Beijing to go sightseeing."
Mrs. Xu scolded her, "The northwest is still waiting for you to pray for rain. Where can I get water for you to play with?"
Su Tang, "..."
She can't compare to her mother.
Su Tang took Mrs. Xu's arm and went to see Princess Xin.
Princess Xin also felt sorry for Su Tang. If it weren't for looking for Yun Yi, the emperor would not have let Su Tang leave the capital, and there would be no excuse for Song Guogong to recommend Su Tang.
Su Tang stood next to Princess Xin and said, "I was negligent last time. This time even the emperor sent twenty guards to escort me. Everything will be fine."
"I hope so," said Princess Xin.
This topic was too heavy and could easily bring back unpleasant memories. Su Tang decisively changed the topic, "Where's Bei'er? He hasn't shown up even after I've been here for so long. Isn't he trying to sneak out to play again?"
In the room, the maid's shoulders were shaking.
I have never seen a naughtier child than Young Master Su. He could even think of a way to swim out of the lotus pond. Even the old prince convinced him and promised to take him out of the house for two days every month.
Mrs. Xu laughed and said, "Bei'er admires your father the most now. He stopped going out to play and read in the house so that your father can teach him the martial arts of kicking the door."
Su Tang, "..."
She was a little worried about other people's doors.
In a few years, I will open a shop selling gates and the business will be good. This chapter has been completed!
