Chapter 367 Seeing things and missing people
Princess Rong'an is in a very good mood today.
Woke up early.
She got up even earlier than Miaomiao.
After he had dressed himself up, he pulled the little girl out of bed.
He enthusiastically combed her messy hair, tied it into a bun, and dressed her in a little skirt.
He looked like he was about to go out.
"Sister Yuan, where are we going?" Jiang Miaomiao asked Princess Rong'an while yawning.
She was usually a little grumpy when she woke up, especially if it wasn't her biological clock's time and she was woken up by someone.
She'll be listless and unhappy.
But today, in front of my new future sister-in-law, I can't be grumpy when I wake up.
Otherwise, her mother would glare at her.
Her mother was sitting at the table, drinking tea and watching her with a smile.
Princess Rong'an looked at the neatly dressed young girl and said with a smile, "I'm going back to the Cui family. Miaomiao, would you like to come along?"
Although I really didn't want to leave Lu Garden, I felt too embarrassed to stay any longer.
Once the conversation started, her status changed.
Once her mother returns to the capital and the formalities are completed, her marriage to Feng-ge will be considered settled.
She was the woman to be married, Feng Ge'er's betrothed.
Even if Aunt Lu didn't mind, she still had to go back.
After all, no girl moves into her husband's house before she is married.
If I told anyone, I would be ridiculed and gossiped about.
Jiang Miaomiao nodded repeatedly, took Rong'an Princess's hand and said in a sweet voice, "Yes, Sister Yuan, I want to go."
What a coincidence! I was just thinking of asking Sister Yuan to take her to visit the Cui family.
If she really is Uncle Cui's biological daughter, then Sister Yuan is her cousin.
My cousin became my sister-in-law.
It’s not that one family doesn’t enter the same house.
This marriage absolutely has to happen.
We have to acknowledge this father as well; it would strengthen our family ties.
"Alright, alright, let's go, I'll take you." Princess Rong'an pinched the little girl's cheek; it was soft and adorable.
I wish I could carry it with me at all times.
She only mentioned to Aunt Lu that she would take Miaomiao to stay with her uncle for a few days, and her aunt actually agreed.
Miao Miao looked at her mother, seeking her opinion.
Mother nodded in agreement.
Lu Qingyao had heard from her daughter that Prime Minister Cui and Princess Yuqing had met by chance at the Prince Jing's residence.
The little guy started chattering nonstop as soon as he got back.
The princess's mother, dressed in her finest attire, blushed whenever she saw Uncle Cui.
Uncle Cui didn't dare look the princess in the eye.
When she asked why he didn't marry a wife, Uncle Cui ran away.
In the end, they even came to a conclusion.
Uncle Cui might be her biological father.
Lu Qingyao admired her daughter; her observations were so meticulous, and her conclusions were well-founded.
If even a child can sense it, then it's probably true.
Miaomiao, dressed in a little dress, twirled in front of the bronze mirror, but felt something was missing.
Yes, the princess's mother's belongings are missing.
There's a saying that goes, "Seeing an object reminds one of a person," so we should let Uncle Cui see more of the princess's things.
It reminded him of the princess and the wonderful times he spent with her.
Maybe they can rekindle their old flame.
Then she had a father.
good idea.
"Xi'er, where are my fan, sachet, and jade beads?" Miao Miao began rummaging through drawers and cabinets.
All of these were taken from the princess.
These were all the princess's personal belongings.
Especially that folding fan, with the princess's painting and calligraphy, should be the object that most evokes Uncle Cui's memories.
When these two were together, they exchanged letters frequently, often expressing their feelings through poetry and art.
Don't scholars all love poetry and songs?
The princess's handwriting was excellent; Uncle Cui must have been very impressed.
Thinking of this, Miao Miao began to rummage through her treasure chests, several large chests filled with her collection of all sorts of treasures.
The little girl lay down beside the box, reaching out her hands to rummage through it.
"Mother... help me..." All the people heard was a cry for help.
When I looked back, the child was gone.
"Where's the baby?"
"Where's Miaomiao?"
Princess Rong'an turned pale and rushed over.
Lu Qingyao and Xiuxiu exchanged a smile and pointed to the large wooden box.
Several people gathered around.
Then I saw Miaomiao lying in the box, rummaging through her treasures.
Lu Qingyao took her daughter out.
He brought out all the boxes, not knowing what his daughter was looking for.
A large box contains a small box, a small box contains a brocade box, and a brocade box contains a small box.
Inside the small box...
Various jade pendants, pearl necklaces, gold bracelets, jade bracelets, colorful gemstone necklaces, gold dragons, gold horses, gold rats, gold dogs...
Finally, they found a folding fan.
Princess Rong'an's expression twitched slightly.
She only knew that Aunt Lu was good at making money and had a good family fortune, but she didn't expect her family fortune to be so substantial.
Even the children's toys are made of gold, stone, and jade.
That's too extravagant.
"This is the dowry I've saved for Miaomiao." Lu Qingyao smiled awkwardly.
This kid seems to be showing off his wealth.
However, she soon discovered that her daughter had acquired even more treasures.
There are no longer just twelve zodiac animals; there are now golden wolves, birds, turtles, and more...
She must have gotten it from her mother and uncle again.
She saved up all her dowry herself.
Lu Qingyao helped tidy up with a doting expression.
Miao Miao took the folding fan and went to the Cui family with Princess Rong'an.
The journey there was quite lively.
There seemed to be several times more people on the street than usual.
People came and went, a bustling crowd.
There's a traffic jam.
The carriages were all blocked on the roadside and could not move.
According to the people's discussions, the victorious army has returned.
Miaomiao was very curious and wanted to go down to see, but Sister Yuan wouldn't let her.
The army that the people are talking about is definitely not the elder brother and godfather; they should be fighting a bloody battle on the frontier right now.
It could only be Prince Chen.
Miao Miao couldn't resist her curiosity and lifted the curtain to take a look.
Because of the dream I had before, my mother said that the person who was assassinated was most likely Prince Chen.
Miao Miao had never seen what Prince Chen looked like, so she wanted to see if he was the same person as in her dream, and whether he had been stabbed.
Amidst cheers from the crowd.
The triumphant army has arrived.
The people made way, clearing a path for them.
Leading the group was a spirited general. He was spirited because he was wearing armor and was handsome.
Clothes make the man, which is why he looks imposing.
The general had a handsome face and fair skin, which made him stand out among the dark-skinned soldiers.
He was so dazzling that Jiang Miaomiao recognized him at a glance.
It was indeed the general who was assassinated in the dream, but there wasn't a trace of injury on him.
Full of energy.
Perhaps he was eventually rescued.
He was a noble prince after all, and he didn't need to go to the battlefield at all. His face didn't look like it had been exposed to the elements.
This formed a stark contrast with the weathered, wheat-colored soldiers behind him.
Jiang Miaomiao found it strange that, given how obvious it was, the people only praised him and submitted to him.
Is it just because he is a prince, born more noble than others?
Standing there, it seemed as if everyone else had become his foil.
All his achievements became mere decorations.
At this point, everyone noticed that there was a carriage following in the procession, which appeared to be for female relatives.
Because the carriage was accompanied by a maid.
The curtains fluttered, and a subtle fragrance wafted through the air.
At the very end was a coffin, said to be the remains of Prince Su. After all, he was a prince, and the emperor wanted to see him alive or dead.
Even if they die, they must be brought back.
He probably wasn't qualified to be buried in the imperial mausoleum, after all, Prince Su did something that would make even his ancestors want to turn their coffins upside down.
If he were buried there, his ancestors would surely rise from the coffin and beat him.
The procession walked through the crowd and disappeared into the distance.
