Chapter 84 Who Lives Longer Between Him and His Father
Xiao Muting took Su Han to the front hall, and Prime Minister Cao immediately came out of the hall and saluted him.
"I am honored to have King Chen value me so much and come to the palace in person. I am extremely grateful." Prime Minister Cao said respectfully.
Xiao Muting stretched out his hand to support him: "Prime Minister Cao, there is no need to be polite. Today is your birthday. I am very happy. I have prepared a gift to celebrate your birthday. I hope Prime Minister Cao will not take it too seriously. I also wish you to be as blessed as the East China Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains."
"Old minister, please thank Your Highness King Chen, please take a seat in the hall with Your Highness and the Princess." Prime Minister Cao invited them into the hall with thoughtful etiquette.
As soon as the two people entered the room and sat down, other courtiers in the hall stood up to greet them.
"Everyone, please get up. There is no need to be polite. Today, my king is not the protagonist. Prime Minister Cao is the longevity star. I am also invited here. The priorities must be clear." Xiao Muting's tone was calm, but he did not lose his majesty.
All the courtiers stood up and sat down. They had long been accustomed to his cold and distant attitude, and naturally they didn't think there was anything wrong with him.
After Prime Minister Cao sat down, he saw Su Han sitting with Xiao Muting.
He looked at Xiao Muting with a smile: "Your Highness, King Chen, there is a banquet for women in the backyard. It is very lively. Why don't you let the princess go there and have a look."
"No, as long as the princess and the king are together." Xiao Muting replied calmly.
Prime Minister Cao smiled again: "His Royal Highness King Chen is really doting on Princess Chen, which is very enviable. I heard that it was Princess Chen who took good care of His Highness King Chen's illness. Then Princess Chen's medical skills are very high, isn't it?
I wonder how it compares with Imperial Physician Su?"
"Who did you hear this from?" Su Han's voice sounded coldly.
Xiao Muting just smiled slightly and looked at her with encouragement.
Prime Minister Cao was choked up on the spot by her direct question. He did not expect that she would be so rude.
Seeing that he was stunned and silent, Su Han stared at him again: "How can you, a high-ranking official, say something so unreasonable? Have you never read a book? No matter how good my medical skills are, how can I get along with my father?"
Compared to that."
Prime Minister Cao said with an unsightly expression: "I don't mean that, may Princess Chen have misunderstood? It's just an ordinary greeting."
Su Han turned to look at Xiao Muting, complaining with a slight grievance: "Have your Highness ever heard such an 'ordinary' greeting? Even a fool like me knows that it is impolite to speak like this. If this is considered an ordinary greeting, then
I also want to ask, who will live longer, him or his father?"
"Pfft..." Lin Haoxuan spit out a sip of tea, then coughed violently, his face turning red.
But this couldn't stop him from laughing wildly after he finished coughing.
The courtiers sitting in the hall looked embarrassed. They all heard that there was something inappropriate in what Prime Minister Cao said, but no one dared to point it out.
But what Princess Chen said was really powerful, and some of them wanted to laugh.
Prime Minister Cao's old face became even more ugly, and he coughed heavily: "Your Highness, King Chen..."
"Prime Minister Cao, today is your birthday. Don't be unhappy. My princess has always been kind, but what the Prime Minister said was really inappropriate." Xiao Muting interrupted him directly and pointed out his mistake clearly.
Prime Minister Cao was so angry that his face turned blue, but he could not have an attack. He only felt tightness in his chest and a little out of breath.
After Lin Hao
You won’t be so straightforward. Today, I really want to thank Prime Minister Cao for letting me, the young marquis, appreciate the princess’s style. Thank you, thank you so much!”
Prime Minister Cao was very helpless. He wanted to give this idiot little princess a slap in the face, but he failed and hurt himself instead.
He could only hold on and grinned awkwardly: "Let the little Marquis laugh, laugh."
"It's really boring here. Didn't we agree that we would leave after giving the gifts? You lied to me again." Su Han turned to Xiao Muting with a face.
Xiao Muting immediately comforted her: "It'll be fine, right away."
When Prime Minister Cao heard this, he didn't think this was a good idea. He had promised his daughter that he would definitely let Xiao Muting stay and would take them to the backyard so that he could take her into the house.
He immediately stood up and took the initiative to apologize: "It's my fault, please forgive me. Please forgive me. In this way, I will take you all to the back yard for a walk. There are interesting activities set up for all the children of the veteran."
Please appreciate the trick Xiaoshun came up with."
The other courtiers responded immediately and stood up saying good things.
Xiao Muting didn't want to go. Just as he was about to speak, Su Han pulled his hand down.
Hear her ask Prime Minister Cao again: "As a high official, you can't tell lies. Is it true? What kind of fun tricks are you doing?"
"Princess Chen, please move to the backyard and see it. I guarantee that the princess will be satisfied." Prime Minister Cao saw that she had taken the bait and immediately tried his best to persuade her.
"In that case, I really want to take a look." After she finished speaking, she looked up at Xiao Muting: "Is that okay?"
Seeing her like this, Xiao Muting could only nod, but still warned: "Don't let go of my hand."
"I promise you won't let me go!" Su Han smiled sweetly at him.
Prime Minister Cao proudly led the way and led these people to the backyard.
He winked at the servant next to him and told him to quickly inform the preparations.
Lin Haoxuan walked up to Xiao Muting at this time, touched him lightly with his arm, and whispered: "It's a scam."
"Yeah! Be careful!" Xiao Muting responded softly.
After turning the door to the backyard, Su Han had already stretched his neck, stood on tiptoes, and looked into the distance.
"What's there? They're all rockery, and there's a lake pavilion, which is much smaller than our house. What's there to see?" she said dissatisfied.
The voice was not quiet and was heard by many people.
But no one would refute her words. You must know that the place where she lives is Prince Chen's Mansion. It is the Jiuzhu Prince's Mansion given by the late emperor. The buildings in the mansion must be extraordinary. It is a pity that only those who have the chance to see it, except for the right companion.
The young Marquis of Yanyang who is next to King Chen, there is really no one else here.
Lin Hao
"Why do you have to make do with it? If it's not good, then it's not good. You can improve it only by giving your opinions, right?" Su Han pouted slightly unhappily.
"My beloved concubine is right." Xiao Muting leaned against her ear, blowing hot air and pushing her hard.
Su Han couldn't help but shrink his neck, and his ears turned slightly red again.
This old boy, why does he act regardless of the occasion? It's intentional, right?
After turning around a bamboo forest path, I saw a fairly small lake.
Suddenly something was stuffed into Xiao Muting's mouth by Su Han, and he looked at her in shock.
Su Han smiled at him calmly: "Jelly beans, they are delicious."
Xiao Muting smiled, this girl is quite a thief.
Lin Haoxuan also got one and threw it into his mouth without hesitation, with a smile on his lips.
