Nanny Gao smiled and agreed.
The expressions of the concubines instantly changed. They said a few pleasantries and bade farewell.
Seeing the usually dignified and elegant women panic when they heard that the princess was coming, the eunuchs and palace maids serving in the hall held back their laughter.
That was true. If they didnât leave now, they wouldnât be able to leave when the princess arrived.
Empress Dowager Zhou also wanted to laugh, but she held it in.
âLook at these petty people. Theyâre afraid that my good granddaughter will ask them for something.â
Eunuch Yu smiled awkwardly. Every time those concubines came dressed up in jewelry, they would only be left with bare clothes when they returned. They couldnât even leave behind a hairpin. Who wouldnât be afraid?
âConsort Rong, Concubine Hui, are you here to see Grandmother?â A crisp childâs voice sounded outside the hall.
âAh, yes, yes⦠I remembered that I have something to do. Iâll leave first.â âI suddenly remembered that thereâs still soup stew in my palace.â âMy clothes havenât been confiscated yet.â
âItâs fine. There are still palace maids, right? Let me tell youâ¦â
Fifteen minutes later, Little Jiajia and the three princes arrived fully loaded.
Empress Dowager Zhou was amused when she saw it. Wasnât that the jade ornament on Consort Rongâs head today? The golden jade bracelet in the boyâs hand seemed to belong to Beauty Zhao.
âGrandmother, look.â Little Jiajia leaned over as if she was presenting a treasure.
The chubby boy was also happy. After all, the Eldest Prince and the Second Prince were older, and they were still a little embarrassed.
Empress Dowager Zhou gestured for the palace maids to help them put away their things and asked with a smile, âWhich fishâs birthday is it today?â
The young princessâs daily excuse was that it was the fishâs birthday today and the catâs wedding tomorrow. How could those concubines not express their gratitude for such a joyous occasion?
However, she was cunning. When she saw who gave her expensive things, she praised them sweetly. Every time, she would arouse the desire of the women in the harem to win.
They naturally regretted it after that, but it was useless. The next time those concubines encountered this matter, they had to prove they were the best.
Without waiting for Little Jiajia to speak, the chubby boy interrupted, âCousin said that there was a flood in Qinghe Prefecture. Father needs a lot of money to save the commoners. Whoever donates the most money, she will go to Father
and put in a good word for the concubine. â
âThe ladies have all gone back to gather money,â the Eldest Prince added.
Eunuch Yu could not help but praise her, âThe princess already knows how to share Your Majestyâs burdens at such a young age. Sheâs remembering the kindness of the empress dowager and His Majesty.â
These words touched Empress Dowager Zhouâs heart. She couldnât get enough of holding Little Jiajiaâs chubby hand. In the end, she didnât forget to teach her grandsons to learn more from Little Jiajia.
She raised Little Jiajiaâs chin proudly.
When the two cranes were sent into the Longevity Palace, the emperor arrived. Empress Dowager Zhou naturally praised Little Jiajia in front of Xuanyuan Qi.
When it came to naming the crane, Little Jiajia and Empress Dowager Zhou spoke almost at the same time.
âGood luck and longevity.â
âGood luck and longevity.â
Everyone was stunned for a moment before laughing.
âMother, look at this girl. She wants to be like you.â
âWhy else would she be my biological granddaughter?â Empress Dowager Zhou was very happy.
No one noticed that Little Jiajia looked at the two white cranes, even more confused.
âWhatâs wrong with you? You canât even watch over an eight-year-old child.â Looking at the maidservant Imeeling on the ground in front of him, Ji Luo was furious.
How could she not know her daughterâs personality? No one could stop her from doing whatever she wanted. However, when she thought that she might suffer outside, she could not calm down.
Ji Luo checked Little Jiajiaâs room and realized that apart from her small treasury, there was nothing missing. She was even more certain that she had run away from home.
Just as she was about to go out and look for her, a maidservant gritted her teeth and handed her a note. âPrincess Consort, I found this in the princessâs room. â
Ji Luo opened it suspiciously.
âFather, Mother, Iâm going to look for my husband. Donât worry about me. I brought MO Yuan and You Yi. I wonât be in danger.â At the end of the letter, it was signed âYour dear daughter.â
Ji Luo stayed silent.
The maidservant lowered her head even more. âOnly Iâve seen it. No one else knows.â
If news of this spread, the princess would definitely be famous for having an affair.
The princess consort wouldnât kill her to silence her, right?
The maidservant wanted to cry. âPrincess, youâve harmed me.â she thought.
Ji Luo waved her away. Just from the few words on the note, she could imagine how that girl would smile when she wrote a letter. She took a deep breath and took out three coins.
Fifteen minutes later, she summoned the people she had sent out and sent someone to the palace to inform them. She packed a few clothes and set off for Qinghe Prefecture with more than ten doctors.
With You Yi and MO Yuan around, she did not have to worry about Little Jiajiaâs safety. She wondered if Xuanyuan Ce would stomp his feet when he found out..
