As soon as Zheng Ji walked in, everyone in the cubicle looked over subconsciously, and the conversation stopped abruptly.
Her appearance was too beautiful, her aura was too strong, and she exuded a sense of oppression that made people feel timid involuntarily.
Even the ministers in the Xuanzheng Palace were frightened when they saw her, let alone a child.
After seeing her, the child who was lying next to Tao Jingyi's bed stood up instantly and looked at her with wide eyes.
The child is about six or seven years old. He wears a small golden crown on his head, carved with pink and jade, has red lips and white teeth, and a small dimple on his left cheek. He is really cute.
Who is this kid?
The first person to react was Tao Jingyi. She showed a weak smile and called, "Your Highness, are you here?"
Hearing this title, the child rolled his eyes, then stepped forward and said respectfully: "I have met Nine Emperor Sisters."
Nine Emperor Sisters?
Zheng Ji was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the child looked very similar to Concubine Tao Xian, and he immediately realized it.
This is the tenth prince Zheng Lu, the daughter of Concubine Tao Xian, her royal brother!
After returning from rebirth, Zheng Ji had never seen him before, and of course he couldn't recognize his voice.
"Yeah." Zheng Ji nodded, not knowing what to say for a moment.
She had never had any experience with Zheng Lu in her entire life and was completely unfamiliar with him, but...
She still remembered the fate of this royal brother.
In the previous life, something happened to the Tao family not long ago, and Concubine Tao Xian died. At that time, Zheng Lu was not yet old enough to leave the palace and open a palace. Without the protection of his mother and concubine and his grandfather's family, Zheng Lu... fell into a serious illness. , after recovering from the illness, he could not even speak.
But she had only heard about these and had not seen them with her own eyes.
Because when these things happened, she was already in prison, in a critical situation, and her life was about to be in danger. How could she care about Concubine Tao Xian and her family?
By the time she became Princess Changding in charge of Shisui Mansion, Zheng Lu had also passed away.
It can be said that she had no contact with this imperial brother in her previous life.
As for this life...when she was still in the palace, like her mother and concubine, she rarely interacted with concubines, brothers and sisters from other palaces.
Not to mention later leaving the palace and opening a mansion.
She didn't expect that she would see the Tenth Emperor's Brother here, and he...he was even more beautiful than the little girl!
Zheng Ji, the princess of Changding who is in charge of Liangli Mansion, has a weakness, that is, she has no resistance to good-looking and well-behaved children.
In fact, she has never given birth to a child, and she doesn't like children, but for some reason, when she sees such a child, her heart always feels soft.
The Zheng Lu in front of her had gleaming eyes and a straight body. She was respectful and well-behaved, which made her heart feel happy.
However, Zheng Lu didn’t think so.
He saw the Nine Emperor Sisters looking straight at him. Although she was very good-looking, she looked frighteningly cold and cold. She was even scarier than his father, just like... those gentlemen from the Political Affairs Hall!
Terrible, Nine Emperor Sisters are so terrifying!
He was panicking and couldn't help but look at Tao Jingyi, his big eyes full of panic and asking for help.
Tao Jingyi wanted to laugh, so she looked at Zheng Ji and then at Zheng Lu, then she helped her little cousin and said with a smile: "Dundun, didn't you really want to hear what happened on the martial arts field just now? Your Highness is better than me. It’s clearer, you can ask her.”
"Uh-huh!"
"Uh-huh!"
Zheng Ji and Zheng Lu looked at her suddenly. If you look carefully, there was a slight similarity in their two pairs of phoenix eyes, both of which had the same meaning: Are you kidding me?
The difference was that Zheng Lu's eyes were filled with horror: He didn't even dare to talk to Sister Nine Emperors, so how could he possibly ask her about the martial arts arena?
And Zheng Ji...
I don't even think I can describe the scene on the martial arts field.
What's there to say about this? Just use the most powerful moves to kill anyone who dares to murder her.
If she said that, would it make Zheng Lu cry?
more importantly……
She looked Zheng Lu up and down. Although the child was good-looking, he was rather thin and frail. He was... called "Dundun"?
Concubine Tao Xian comes from Northern Xinjiang, which worships martial arts. The nicknames given to boys there are all related to physical strength, but Dundun and Zheng Lu really don't live up to their names!
Moreover, how come she has no impression that Zheng Lu’s nickname is Dundun?
Strangely, Zheng Lu seemed to understand the look in her eyes, straightened his body, and although he hesitated, he mustered up the courage to say: "Sister Jiuhuang, I... I also practice martial arts, and I am in good health!"
Zheng Ji subconsciously glanced at Zheng Lu again, but couldn't tell that he looked like he was learning martial arts at all.
However, it is impossible for people from the Tao family in Northern Xinjiang not to learn martial arts, especially a thin child like Zheng Lu, who really needs to practice hard.
Tao Jingyi smiled and said, "Your Highness, I heard from my aunt that your Highness was almost killed back then, so he grew a little slender."
Hearing Tao Jingyi say this, Zheng Ji remembered something.
During the Spring Silkworm Ceremony, Aunt Yueyuan, who was next to Concubine Tao Xian, tampered with Empress Xue's robe in order to frame Concubine Tao Xian and avenge her two close friends.
Aunt Yueyuan didn't know that her two friends almost harmed Zheng Lu by giving him a massage.
She, the tenth emperor brother, had a lot of bad luck when she was young. She was really pitiful...
She really couldn't bear to see such a beautiful and well-behaved child being speechless in the future.
She had to think carefully about what happened to Zheng Lu back then, and how could he suddenly become ill?
No, first of all, nothing happened to the Tao family and Concubine Tao Xian...
It seemed that another condition she and Tao Jingyuan had agreed upon was about to be pushed forward.
~~ap.
In Fuqing Palace, Concubine Jiang had glanced several times at Concubine Tao Xian, who was drinking tea, and began to feel distressed.
If it weren't for Concubine Tao Xian's niece being seriously injured, she would not have exchanged such good tea for Tao Shu because she felt guilty.
This tea is worth thousands of gold, and she is usually reluctant to drink it!
Now... every time she sees Concubine Tao Xian take a sip, she feels like the white money flows into Concubine Tao Xian's mouth.
She really couldn't bear to see this scene, so she looked away, quickly picked up the tea cup, and took several sips.
She couldn't let Tao Shu drink such good tea alone!
Concubine Tao Xian put down her tea cup and looked at her strangely: "My dear concubine, are you very thirsty?"
Although the sight of Jiang Zhao drinking heavily is pleasing to the eye, but the servants of Fuqing Palace wouldn't be so blind, right? Can I still be thirsty for Jiang Zhao?
"..." Concubine Jiang was too lazy to speak, but her tea drinking movement slowed down.
After a while, she remembered the purpose of inviting Concubine Tao Xian here, and said slowly: "Concubine Xian, do you want to avenge your niece?"
Concubine Tao Xian paused and raised her eyes to look at her: "My dear concubine, what do you mean by this...?"
"Second update! Who doesn't like beautiful and well-behaved children..."
