Along the way from Jingmoxuan to Tianxiangyuan, Su Tang saw many maids and women coming and going to Princess Nankang's Peonyyuan. They were all in a hurry, and they were so busy that they were preparing for Xie Baiyan to marry Zhao Da of Youxiangfu.
The girl is getting ready.
When I was approaching Tianxiang Courtyard, I saw the prince coming from a distance. The direction he looked at was probably coming from Princess Nankang.
In the house, the princess was sitting there drinking tea. Mother Ning brought over a gift list and said, "Princess, this is the makeup list prepared by this servant. What do you want to add or subtract?"
The princess took the gift list and scanned it from beginning to end. Just as she was about to speak, she heard the footsteps of the prince. The princess immediately stood up to greet him and said, "Your Majesty is just in time. Is there anything missing in this gift list?"
The prince did not accept the gift order, so he was relieved that the princess was doing the work. However, after sitting down, he asked cursorily, "How many gifts have you prepared?"
The princess didn't reply. It was Ning's mother who answered, "Six lifts."
"Two more loads," the prince said, serving tea.
The maid over there hurriedly made tea as soon as she saw the prince coming in. But when she turned around with the tea, she saw the prince drinking the princess's tea. The maid stopped in her tracks, worried about whether to serve the tea.
Where did the prince come from? Why was he so thirsty? He couldn't even wait for her to serve tea, so he picked up the princess's tea and drank it.
The princess handed the gift list to Ning's mother, "Prepare it according to the prince's wishes."
Xie Boting and Su Tang walked in and happened to hear this sentence. Xie Boting said, "What are you preparing, concubine?"
The princess did not expect Xie Boting to come. After hearing Xie Boting's voice, she felt full of energy and her complexion returned to rosy. The princess felt relieved and said, "Is the typhoid fever cured?"
"I don't cough anymore," Xie Boting replied.
The princess said happily, "Dr. Jia is the only one in Kyoto who can cure such a severe typhoid fever so quickly, and he was cured without anyone entering the house."
The princess admired Dr. Jia very highly.
The prince sat there, his eyes twitching as he listened. No one was as easy to fool as the princess. Doctor Jia never entered the Jingnan Prince's Mansion. She never left after entering. It wasn't that she didn't take Ting'er's pulse, but that she didn't.
With personal care day and night, can I not recover quickly?
The princess was concerned about Xie Boting's health and made sure that her son was cured of the typhoid fever. The princess was relieved and replied to Xie Boting, "Tomorrow is the day when Miss Yun from Prince Xin's palace will get married. Your father asked me to prepare a wedding dress for you and the crown prince."
Concubine will take it back when she comes back tomorrow."
It was originally prepared for them, but could she say that with her relationship with Xie Boting and Yun Jia, there was no need to send any extra makeup.
Yunjia originally hated her for robbing Xie Boting, and after the incident at Duke Ying's mansion, she must have hated Xie Boting as well.
Not to mention it's just a make-up, even if the entire Jingnan Palace is packed and sent away, people won't be surprised.
No one would care about them if they gave it away, but if they didn't give it away, they would be blamed. Now the prince and princess have prepared it for them. Su Tangfu thanked him, "I have been busy taking care of my husband these past few days and haven't paid attention to this. Thank you to my father, princess and concubine for helping me prepare."
The princess smiled gently and said to Su Tang, "Thank you for taking care of Ting'er these days."
Su Tang shook his head, with a well-behaved look on his face, "As long as my husband doesn't mind my clumsiness."
Xie Boting looked sideways.
Dislike her clumsiness?
This was the only modest thing she could say. If he really disliked it, his typhoid fever might not be cured one day.
The princess couldn't be more satisfied with Su Tang. She said, "Tomorrow is your birthday. My mother will make you a bowl of longevity noodles..."
Before the princess could finish speaking, Xie Boting said, "No, we have to go to Xinwang's Mansion early tomorrow morning."
The princess scolded him with her eyes, "There's no need to be so hasty, it's not too late to go after eating longevity noodles."
Xie Boting said, "Then I have to get up early. I don't want my mother to be too tired."
The princess laughed, "My mother and concubine don't get up early every day. Once in a while, I don't want to hinder you. My mother and concubine made longevity noodles for your birthday, so naturally you should treat them equally."
Su Tang stood aside and was very moved by the princess's words of "treating everyone equally".
She stabbed Xie Baiting with a knife in her eyes, and the concubine wanted to make longevity noodles for her. Why did he try to obstruct her in every possible way?
The princess insisted on making longevity noodles, and Su Tang also wanted to eat them. Xie Boting still didn't give up. He said, "Mother-in-law must have made longevity noodles. I'd better go to Xin Wang's Mansion to eat them." This chapter has been completed!
