Chapter 235 This idiot can’t even copy homework! General Weiyuan also felt that his words just now seemed to be praising Princess Sheng'an more and scratched his head, looking embarrassed: "Then, what should we do next?" "What else can be done?" The eldest prince sneered: "The Fifth Princess' birthday is coming up soon, so naturally we have to prepare a great gift for her!" "Big gift?" General Weiyuan's powerful voice began to become weak: "Your Highness, you also know that my wife is very strict with me regarding money. This gift..." "Who asked you to spend money to prepare a big gift for her?" The eldest prince was so angry at this warrior who only knew how to fight that he had a headache: "Didn't she ask people to plant the weaving shell flower before, and even said she was willing to buy the fruit of the weaving shell flower for five cents a pound? It’s harvest time, isn’t it? Let her harvest it!” What is Yunshu’s biggest advantage now? Popularity? Money? No matter what it is, with so many fruits of the weaving shell flower, he didn't believe that Yun Shu could really buy them all at five cents per pound!
As long as she can't collect all the things, or lets people dispose of them at will after collecting them, He could have someone spread the news and let the people know that Yun Shu was a dissolute and extravagant person who did not keep his word and who, for his own selfish desires, could deceive the people who had worked so hard to plant flowers for him! By then, Yunshu would have spent all his money, lost the support of the people, and had a bad reputation. No matter how much my father likes her, there is no way he would promote such a good-for-nothing person to the position of Crown Princess, right? Wouldn't his chance come then? "I understand!" General Weiyuan slapped his thigh fiercely. After figuring out the twists and turns, he immediately grinned: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is indeed resourceful. I'll have someone do it right away!" …… The days passed one by one as everyone was making plans. Soon it was Yunshu's birthday. As if to dilute the bad luck caused by the incident involving the late crown prince, Emperor Xuanwu arranged a birthday banquet for her in the Linding Hall and invited all the court officials to attend the banquet with their relatives. Cen Yiyi and Tang Xinhua also came. Because of their close relationship with Yunshu, the two did not have to wait until Linde Hall. Before the banquet began, they went directly to Fengyang Palace with their carefully prepared birthday gifts to give to Yunshu. In addition to their own gifts, Tang Xinhua also brought the gifts prepared by Tang Yuanlin and Tang Muzhi: "My grandfather personally went to the temple to get this amulet for you. He said it was blessed by a master and is very effective. Your Highness can carry it with you. As for this..." Tang Xinhua's mouth twitched, feeling a little embarrassed: "Mu Zhi said that he had just arrived in Qiongzhou and had nothing with him, so he could only bring back some local specialties for Your Highness. These lychees...are best eaten when fresh, but unfortunately they are out of season, so only dried lychees are left." Yun Shu: “…” Did he really send her some lychees? Yun Shu laughed:
"My grandfather and cousin are also very caring." She asked someone to collect the gifts and chatted with the two for a while. When it was almost time to go to Linde Hall, Yun Shu took Tang Xinhua's arm, deliberately stepped two steps behind, and whispered: "No matter what happens later, trust me and protect Grandpa." "what?" Tang Xinhua was slightly startled, but soon realized something. She tightened her arm around Yun Shu, then raised her eyes to look at Cen Yiyi who was jumping in front of her: "Your Highness, won't you remind Yi Yi?" "Yi Yi is young, and she can't hide her true feelings. Besides, she came with Marquis Wu'an. With Marquis Wu'an here, he will definitely keep her safe." After quickly explaining, Yun Shu said no more. With a relaxed look on his face, he took the two of them to the Linde Palace. When they arrived, the palace was already very busy. Seeing Yun Shu coming in, many young ladies from official families who were about her age came forward to greet her at the signal of their parents. I looked around and didn't recognize anyone. Yun Shu maintained a polite smile and dealt with them one by one. Fortunately, this scene did not last too long. Before her face froze with smile, Emperor Xuanwu finally arrived. He waved his hand casually, signaling everyone not to pay attention to him. Emperor Xuanwu seems to be in a very good mood today. After taking the surrounded Yun Shu away from the crowd and chatting with her for a while, he turned his gaze directly to the eldest prince and others: "It's Xiaowu's birthday today. Did you guys forget to prepare a birthday gift for her?" "Of course I can't forget that!" Yun Chuhuan was the first to raise his head: "I specially asked my mother for an advance on next year's pocket money, and made a set of particularly exquisite headwear for my fifth sister. I even personally participated in part of the design!" "you?" Emperor Xuanwu couldn't help but twitch his lips. It’s not that he doesn’t trust Lao Liu… But is it possible that if he had not participated in the design, this headgear would have been more exquisite? Emperor Xuanwu hesitated several times, but in the end, seeing that this boy was thoughtful, he did not dampen his pride, but turned his head to look at the eldest prince on the other side: "What about you?" "I am ashamed to say that I don't know much about Fifth Sister's preferences. I really don't know what Fifth Sister likes, and I was very distressed about this for a while. Later, I suddenly remembered that the Fifth Princess loved the weaving shell flower very much. I wanted to have someone collect more of them and see if I could make a gift out of these flowers for the Fifth Princess. But I didn’t expect that… the blooming period of the weaver shell flower has also passed.” The eldest prince pretended to be ashamed at first, then changed the subject: “But the fruit of the weaving shell flower has already grown. I remember that when the Fifth Princess made a bet with the Right Prime Minister, she said in a hurry that she would buy all the woven shell flowers at the price of five coins per pound. It's been so long since the incident happened, it's too late to regret now. I can only do my best to help the Fifth Princess buy some." "You're quite thoughtful then." What are the words "in a desperate situation", "it's too late to reverse what has been done", "help to buy some", Is this a gift from him? It's obvious that he wants to bring up old things again, to provoke him and make things difficult for Xiaowu! The smile on Emperor Xuanwu's face faded a little. What is the eldest prince doing? Could it be that he thought he didn't like the private fighting between the princes and princesses? So I wanted to learn from Xiaowu and lay all my plans out in the open, thinking that this way he wouldn't be angry? But this idiot didn't even think about when Xiaowu had ever taken the initiative to harm anyone? Xiaowu dared to do that because she was open and honest! Even when she retaliated, she always left room for him in front of her father! The eldest prince is such an idiot that he can't even copy homework!
