Gu Rou didn't feel that her behavior was excessive at all. Even though Tao Xiang was standing here now, she still smiled and pinched Xiu Fu again.
When he opened his hand again, a few more white dog hairs fell out.
Xiu Fu clamped her tail tightly, and Gu Rou was still smiling.
"Third Princess, my servant will carry you in to eat pastries." Manxiang looked as usual and stepped forward to coax the Third Princess in.
Concubine Jin then said: "Hurry up and give this dog to your master."
Taoxiang then stepped forward and hugged Xiufu.
This puppy is very smart. Tao Xiang has hugged it before, but now it seems to recognize Tao Xiang and cuddles hard in Tao Xiang's arms, as if it is afraid that Tao Xiang will put it down.
"My dear concubine Jin, when Xiu Fu came out before, the hair on her body was still very thick and fluffy. Now she is being dragged all over the place by the third princess. Why don't you give me an explanation?"
Taoxiang saw the old concubine Sumire sitting above her and asked her directly for an explanation.
"Rou'er is young and ignorant. Please apologize to the imperial concubine on my behalf for this matter. When I find out that this is your princess's puppy, I will definitely not let Rou'er do this again."
Concubine Sumire was quite capable of bending and stretching. Seeing that Tao Xiang was clearly full of anger, she went along with the situation and pushed everything towards the third princess' ignorance.
After all, Tao Xiang was a slave. If Concubine Sumire had a tough attitude, she could rely on the Imperial Concubine's instructions to punish Concubine Sumire.
But Concubine Sumire said so, and she felt like she had been punched on cotton, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
However, Tao Xiang couldn't swallow this breath, and said in a strange tone: "Your Majesty Sumire, the so-called beating of a dog depends on the owner. The third princess is young and ignorant now. Our queen is kind-hearted, so she will not pursue it. If the third princess grows up in the future, Okay, if you continue to act so recklessly, don’t lose the royal family’s face.”
No one likes others to talk about their daughter in this way, and Concubine Sumire is no exception.
When she heard Taoxiang's words, she immediately fell back in anger.
What does this mean? Did she say that her daughter plucked out dog hair, or did she say that she was a dog and not pursue the issue because her daughter was a princess?
But it was not easy to ask this question at all. Sumire was confused for a long time, but before she could say anything, she was blocked by Momoka's next words:
"This slave has to carry Xiu Fu back to restore the life of the Imperial Concubine. The Imperial Concubine specially asked this slave to take Xiu Fu back as soon as possible."
Saying this, without waiting for Concubine Sumire to say anything, she rolled her eyes and turned around to leave.
But he kept mumbling: "I don't know how considerate our eldest princess was when she was three years old. After all, our princess has a good temper!"
After saying this, he paused and continued: "You are talking nonsense and pulling out hair at a young age. You are really not taught well!"
After saying this, the person had already walked out of Luwei Hall.
"Rebellion!" Concubine Sumire covered her chest in anger, "Isn't it just because her master is the imperial concubine? Now even a palace maid can ignore me. I am really... …”
The more she talked, the angrier she became. She got up and wanted to go to the Qinzheng Hall of Han Xianzong to complain.
Manxiang happened to come out of the house at this time. After hearing this, she hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her:
"Your Majesty, although the palace maid made rude remarks about this matter, strictly speaking, we are still in the wrong. Not only can you not file a complaint, but you also have to be on guard against the imperial concubine complaining behind her back."
"Her maid said this about me and the third princess. I really can't swallow this breath." Seeing Manxiang, Concubine Sumire finally regained her sense, but she still held her breath and wanted to eat Taoxiang alive:
"Even if this servant girl suffers some physical pain, I will feel better in my heart."
"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong," Manxiang saw a little bit of disappointment flashing in her eyes when Concubine Sumire was so helpless, but she still tried her best to persuade her:
"She's just a slave, my Majesty, there's no need to get so angry over a palace maid."
Manxiang comforted her softly and persuaded Concubine Sumire in a good voice.
She had a good way of persuading people, speaking softly, and Concubine Sumire was quickly comforted.
But it was one thing to be comforted. She still felt sorry for herself, thinking that she was a master after all, but in the end her life was worse than that of a slave.
"Mom, where is my puppy?" At this time, Gu Rou happened to come out after eating pastries. She looked around and didn't see Xiu Fu, so she raised her head and asked her.
"What kind of puppy is not a puppy?" Concubine Sumire felt annoyed and annoyed her impatiently, "Is that your dog? You didn't get it from a dog breeder!"
Gu Rou didn't understand why her mother, who had been so loving before, suddenly became so fierce. She stood there blankly for a while, and then started crying.
The more she cried, the sadder she became. The thought of the dog being gone made her even sadder, and her voice became louder and louder.
"Where is the wet nurse?" Concubine Sumire didn't have the patience to coax her now, "Why don't you take the third princess down quickly and let her cry here?"
The nurse of the third princess hurriedly came out from the side. For fear of being slowed down, Concubine Jin would blame her, so she hurriedly took the third princess away to comfort her.
Concubine Sumire was irritated, but Manxiang behind her brightened up after what she just said.
Seeing that the wet nurse was holding the third princess and walking away, surrounded by trustworthy people, Manxiang hesitated for a moment and whispered:
"Your Majesty, I have a plan. Your Majesty, would you like to hear it?"
"Oh?" Concubine Sumire suddenly became interested and looked up at her, "Please tell me and listen."
Manxiang then whispered: "The dog breeding place in this palace has many small dogs that the master can keep. Since the third princess likes them, why not find them for the princess."
Concubine Jin thought it was a ploy to vent her anger, but she didn't know it was to find a dog for Gu Rou.
She said angrily: "She is just a curiosity, why go out there to find her?"
"Mother, this dog has many uses," Manxiang laughed softly: "Dogs are beasts, and what beasts do is different from what we humans do."
Although Sumire's brain is not top-notch, she is at least smart.
After hearing Manxiang's words, she felt blessed for a moment: "What do you mean..."
Manxiang naturally knew what she was asking and nodded.
The two looked at each other, and Concubine Sumire felt relieved, got up and entered the palace.
At this time, the wet nurse was holding the third princess and coaxing her in the palace.
The third princess was crying non-stop, and the nanny was walking around holding her in her arms. When she heard some movement behind her, she turned around and saw Concubine Sumire walking in.
The nanny was startled, thinking that the empress disliked the princess for crying all the time, so she quickly apologized: "Empress, slave..."
Before she finished speaking, Concubine Sumire reached out and took the third princess from her arms:
"Rou'er, stop crying. Mother will take you to the dog breeding place to choose a dog now, okay?"
The voice was soft, and there was no hint of the tone in which he had loudly rebuked the third princess just now.
