Royal Little Fortune

Chapter 39 The Empress Dowager's Doubt

But he was doomed to be disappointed, because they would never be able to buy this thing. Poor Wang Cheng was destined not to be able to return to the Forbidden City today.

On the dragon chariot, the emperor ate the watermelon seeds slowly, and felt that the more he chewed, the more delicious they became. It was more than a hundred times more delicious than the dried food fried by the royal chefs in the palace. It was really good.

I don't know where the little fat man bought this kind of special taste and weird looking thing. No wonder she is so fat, and all she puts in her purse is food.

Just when the emperor was eating with gusto, Ya Ruo, who had just returned to the garden, was lying on the table with a depressed face.

She was unhappy, very unhappy.

Not only did she lose the purse her mother embroidered for her, but also the bag of watermelon seeds inside.

Of course, there are still some leftovers in the Watermelon Seed House, enough to hold a few more purses, but the problem is that purse, such a beautiful purse, was made by my mother after several days of hard work, it was a gift for her.

It was lost just like that, and I don't know where it was lost. Although she found out later and sent someone to look for it, but there is no news yet, it must not be found.

"Okay girl, don't be sad, look at you... your little face is all wrinkled, it's okay, just throw it away, since you like it, mother will make you another one that is exactly the same, okay?" Su said softly Said.

"Yeah." Although Ya Ruo was depressed, she had already lost her things, and no matter how regretful she was, she would never get them back.

Now, I can only turn my grief and anger into food, and it happens that the cook has already prepared dinner.

Just as Ya Ruo was eating all the food on the table, the emperor just returned to the Forbidden City.

The maids and eunuchs guarding over there saw each other and were busy delivering news to the Compassionate Ning Palace.

The Empress Dowager was instructing the imperial chef in the small dining room of the Compassionate Ning Palace to prepare the imperial meal, thinking that when her son came back, she would invite him to have a meal together, but she didn't know that it was not ready yet, so she heard the report from the palace maid that the emperor was back.

"Your majesty is quite clear. You came back very early, Su Mo'er, go and deliver the decree and invite the emperor to come over for dinner. Ai's family is waiting for him." The queen mother said with a smile.

"Yes." Su Mo'er responded quickly, and was about to go out, but remembered what the little eunuch said to her just now, and immediately whispered: "Qi Empress Dowager, when the emperor came back, he had a purse in his hand." , it’s my daughter’s home purse, it’s very pretty.”

The queen mother was stunned when she heard this. Her son actually carried the purse from his daughter's family. This is probably...a mistake!
His son has been strict since he was a child, and being an emperor is even more majestic. To him, the women in the harem...maybe just dispensable vassals.

She never saw her son being very close to any concubine, he was indifferent to everyone, and the number of times he went to the harem was pitiful. He seemed to prefer to stay in the Qianqing Palace, with his memorials and books as companions.

Now that someone told her that her son was carrying her daughter's purse, she was of course shocked, and the first thing she thought of was—impossible!

"Empress Dowager, the emperor is going out of the palace for a private visit today. Our people saw it when he went out, but we didn't see the emperor carrying a purse, but now he came back with a woman's purse. Could it be... from outside the palace? What tricks did the woman use to confuse our emperor?" Su Mo'er asked with a worried face.

She has been with the Empress Dowager for many years, and she watched the Emperor grow up. It can be said that... she definitely does not care less about the Emperor than the Empress Dowager.

To be disrespectful, she has always regarded the emperor as her own child, and of course she cares about everything about the emperor.

After hearing Su Mo'er's words, the queen mother's expression changed immediately, and she said in a deep voice, "This is impossible, based on what the Ai family knows about the emperor, he is definitely not such a frivolous person, besides...there are so many concubines in the palace No matter it was forced by the Ai family, or it had to be brought into the palace in order to weigh the power of the ministers and the banners, at least each of them was dignified and beautiful, each with its own merits, it was impossible for him to let so many noble girls go, Aijia's son, Aijia, knows that when he falls in love with other women outside the palace, this kid has high eyesight, and ordinary people can't catch him."

Of course, Su Mo'er also hoped so, she quickly smiled and said: "What the empress dowager said is very true, our emperor is the most honorable person in the world, the emperor has a high spirit, and the idlers will not look down on him at all, if anyone A woman who can be favored and loved by the emperor must be the best woman in the world."

"That's right." The Queen Mother nodded with a smile, and then said to Su Mo'er, "Go and invite the Emperor to come over for dinner."

"Yes." Su Mo'er responded quickly, and immediately ran to meet the emperor.

The emperor brought Wu Liangfu and others to the gate of Qianqing Palace, and Su Mo'er successfully stopped them.

"My maidservant pays homage to the emperor, and the emperor is blessed and safe." Su Mo'er hurriedly saluted.

"My aunt, please, but the Empress sent you to invite me to the Compassion Palace?" the emperor asked with a smile.

Su Mo'er was flattered when she heard the words, you know... Ever since the emperor came to power, he never called her "aunt" as before, but just called her by her first name.

She watched the emperor grow up, and she has always regarded the emperor as her own. She is gradually getting older, and she can be regarded as a respectable maid in the palace, and she is also the chief maid in charge of the Palace of Compassion and Ning. Everyone respectfully calls her "" "Aunt", of course, this is not a special address for her alone. All the dignified ladies in the palace will be called "Aunt" by others, and the old ones are "Nurse".

"My Majesty, the Empress Dowager ordered the imperial chef in the small dining room to make a lot of imperial meals that the Emperor likes to eat. Please invite the Emperor to come and have dinner." Su Mo'er hurriedly said respectfully.

"En." The emperor nodded lightly, he didn't enter Qianqing Palace, and walked directly towards the direction of Compassionate Ning Palace, which is not far anyway.

Su Mo'er hurriedly followed. She saw that the emperor didn't even sit with Long Yu, but walked directly, and the key point was to call her "aunt", which shows that the emperor is in a particularly good mood today.

Of course, she didn't see the legendary woman's purse, she just thought it was some little palace maid who missed it.

Su Mo'er accompanied the emperor all the way forward, and soon arrived at the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

The emperor went out for a private visit, and the empress dowager was terribly worried. Now that her son had returned safely, she was a little excited and stood waiting at the door.

"May the emperor's mother be blessed and safe." After saluting with a smile, the emperor accompanied the queen mother into the room.

Of course, the queen mother would not ask about "little things" like purses in front of the emperor, lest her son think she was "spying" on him, this kid should be taboo.

Therefore, as soon as the emperor came, the empress dowager made people have dinner, and said some interesting things to her son from time to time, which made her feel comfortable.
