Nie Ying on the side looked at Tang Junning who was furious and took a breath.

This concubine is really courageous!

In the entire palace, except for the late princess, no one dared to talk to the prince like this.

"I think it's because I am too kind to you that you don't know how high the sky is." Xiao Tingyan sneered, showing more and more disgust, "Get out!"

"Sister, is sister here?"

Outside the door, a childish voice suddenly sounded.

Xiaobao patted the outside with his fleshy little hands a few times, and was called in by the maid waiting at the door.

Seeing Tang Junning, Xiaotuanzi immediately smiled and stretched out his arms for her to hug: "Sister, where did you go yesterday and why didn't you come back? Xiaobao misses you so much."

The anger that was just rising to the sky disappeared instantly when he saw this cute little face. Even though Xiaobao's facial features seemed to be carved from the same mold as Xiao Tingyan, Tang Junning's heart melted.

She took the small dumpling from the maid's hand and rubbed her chin twice on his tofu-like face: "Sister went home yesterday, so she didn't tell Xiaobao a story."

"Xiaobao looked for you yesterday but couldn't find you. When I heard you were here, I came over to find you immediately!"

Xiaotuanzi hugged her neck and looked at Xiao Tingyan from her shoulders: "Daddy, aren't you happy? Why do you look so fierce?"

Thinking of Xiao Tingyan, Tang Junning lost her temper: "Your father is a man who doesn't keep his word. Xiaobao must not imitate him. He must be a good boy who keeps his word, you know?"

"Well! As my sister said, a gentleman keeps his word and does what he says. This is called integrity."

The little baby eagerly repeated what she had said a few days ago, and then asked: "What did daddy do?"

"Your father stole my medicinal materials and refused to give them back to me."

"Oh, this is stealing, it is stealing! Sister, if you steal something, you have to report it to the official."

Xiaobao scratched his head and fell into deep thought: "Is it stealing, stealing, or robbing?"

Nie Ying's heart skipped a beat and she couldn't help but look at Xiao Tingyan, and sure enough she saw that his face was dark.

"Su Hua, what do you teach him every day?" Xiao Tingyan said angrily.

Tang Junning turned around and said contemptuously: "Of course it is the traditional virtue of loyalty, filial piety, etiquette and justice, especially the word "righteousness", which is something that King Rui does not have."

"Dad, if you take sister's things, you must return them, otherwise Xiaobao will... um..."

Xiaobao thought carefully for a while, and then remembered the idiom Tang Junning said: "Those who want to kill relatives for justice!"

The corners of Xiao Tingyan's mouth twitched, and his sharp eyes wanted to poke a hole in Tang Junning's body.

He really underestimated this woman's courage!

"Nie Ying, give her the things." Xiao Tingyan said coldly.

Tang Yun breathed a sigh of relief and pecked Xiaobao on the cheek: "Xiaobao is so amazing. Daddy is willing to return the things to my sister. Xiaobao is more powerful than the adults who preside over justice in the yamen!"

After being praised, Xiaobao clapped his hands happily.

"The prince should also learn more from Xiaobao." Tang Junning was in a good mood and winked at Xiao Tingyan.

Xiao Tingyan was ready to kill her.

After Tang Junning got the medicinal materials and left with satisfaction, Xiao Tingyan said to Nie Ying: "Keep an eye on Xiaobao and don't allow her to go to Xiaobao's place again!"

"yes."

Nie Ying agreed, remembering the news that the spy in the side concubine's courtyard reported back when she just went to get the medicinal materials, and said to Xiao Tingyan: "By the way, I heard that two girls came to the side concubine's house. It was the side concubine who was in the suburbs last night.

Saved from the hands of Ren Yazi."

"There is... an old servant of the former princess, named Skylark."

At the mention of the princess, Xiao Tingyan frowned, and anger jumped in his eyes: "What on earth is this woman trying to do over and over again!"

Tang Junning waited until she was ugly before she prepared the new medicine.

After resting on the bed for a while, the queen sent someone to deliver the news, saying that the peonies in the palace were in bloom, and invited the female relatives from all the palaces to come to the palace to enjoy the flowers.

A small banquet was held in the imperial garden. When Tang Junning arrived, there were already three or five wives accompanying the queen.

She glanced over and saw a familiar face.

That person was the pretty woman who came to her rescue outside the hunting palace.

After that brief encounter, Tang Junning had not seen her again, and she never expected to see her again here.

Seeing Tang Junning, she nodded slightly as a greeting, then returned to her indifferent expression and didn't say much.

"I heard that Mrs. Hou has been ill since she came back from that hunting trip. I haven't seen her for a while. How is she feeling well recently?" someone asked.

The woman then said softly: "Mrs. Lao is worried, but she's almost feeling better now."

Hearing the word "Mrs. Hou", an idea flashed in Tang Junning's mind. She suddenly thought that after Xiao Tingyan handed over military power, she was shocked to hear about the marriage between the prince and Tang Zhiying. She was devastated by the betrayal and even the wedding of Marquis Ding'an.

Never attended either.

The Marquis of Ding'an, Liang Xing'an, was the son of General Liang Lie of Fuyuan. In the past, General Liang defeated the Qiang slaves. He had outstanding achievements and was generously rewarded. However, after years of fighting on the battlefield, General Liang suffered from injuries and illnesses, and he did not survive past the age of 40.

Liang Xing'an was the only son of General Liang. He inherited his father's title and married Ruan Yurong, the legitimate daughter of King Zhennan of Southern Xinjiang.

Tang Junning couldn't help but take another look at that person. This person indeed had a southern appearance. It seemed that he was the Ruan family.

The queen didn't care about this. She held a banquet and after strolling around the garden, she felt a little uninterested.

Everyone was aware of this, and when they were about to find a way to leave, they heard a message from the eunuch saying that the Crown Princess had arrived.

The Queen frowned as she looked at Tang Zhiying, who was surrounded by a group of palace maids.

She didn't want to see the Crown Princess. Today, she heard that Tang Junning had entered the palace. She was just looking for an opportunity to get medicine from her, so she deliberately didn't invite her over.

Who would have thought that this Tang Zhiying would be so ignorant that she would come over to her.

But her face remained calm and she only said to Tang Zhiying: "My banquet is about to break up. It's an unlucky time for you to come."

Tang Zhiying heard that the Queen was holding a banquet today, but she didn't call her. She was so angry that she smashed several vases in the Prince's Mansion. When she saw Tang Junning in the banquet, her face turned blue.

"My concubine heard that the peonies were blooming well in the Royal Garden, so she came to enjoy the flowers. Unexpectedly, she met the Queen Mother holding a banquet. What a coincidence."

Her eyes fell on Tang Junning and she said with a smile: "The concubine of King Rui is really a busy person. Yesterday she was playing drums in the Shangjing Mansion, and today she has the time to enjoy the flowers again."

The fateful woman asked curiously: "Why does the princess go to the capital to play drums? Is there any grievance?"

"Who knows, I heard that the concubine did not return to the palace the night before yesterday. Could it be that she met some bad people outside?" Tang Zhiying said with a smile.
