Regent, the princess you found is a treasure

Chapter 96 The Prince Wants to Take the Warm Baby for Himself

Su Qingrou looked at the prince's surprised expression, and she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, but more of it was curiosity and unwillingness. So, she picked up a warm baby and asked Qinglian to help her put it on.

Not long after, she could clearly feel the warmth gradually emanating from the area where the heat pack was placed. This wonderful feeling made her feel extremely comfortable both physically and mentally.

Such a wonderful thing, Su Luoxue was willing to give it to those lowly people! Su Qingrou thought indignantly, even the emperor and the queen mother had never enjoyed such a good thing. If the prince could present this treasure to his father and mother, he would definitely have made a great contribution!

Thinking of this, Su Qingrou turned to Xuan Haotian and said, "Your Highness, how can Su Luoxue give away such a rare treasure to ordinary people? Only those with a high status like my father and my mother can possess it. In my opinion, Su Luoxue should be ordered to hand over all the treasures and present them to my father."

After hearing this, Xuan Haotian nodded in agreement, thinking that if he could take this opportunity to please his father, he might get more appreciation and love.

Having made up his mind, he arranged for some people to stay behind in the porridge shed, while he led Su Qingrou and a group of guards from the Prince's Mansion and headed straight towards the south of the city.

When Xuan Haotian and Su Qingrou led a large number of people to Su Luoxue's porridge shed, Su Luoxue was busy serving hot porridge to the people. When she saw the prince and his party coming, she winked at a guard and asked him to come over and take over her work. These days, she also heard that the emperor and the prince and others were giving rice porridge to the people, and she couldn't help but respect this move a little more.

Su Luoxue walked straight towards Xuan Haotian and Su Qingrou without hesitation.

"I wonder why the Crown Prince and Crown Princess are here?" Su Luoxue asked directly.

Xuan Haotian stared at Su Luoxue and asked, "Why, Miss Su, now you don't even know how to behave when you see the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess?"

Su Qingrou also raised her head and chest with a proud look on her face when she saw this. The prince had given Su Luoxue a head start when he arrived, which made her secretly happy. Since becoming the crown princess, Su Luoxue had never knelt down and kowtowed to her. Deep in her heart, she had always longed to see Su Luoxue crawling at her feet, but she might be disappointed again.

"Has the Crown Prince forgotten my engagement with the Regent? When you and the Crown Princess came here, you didn't even call me Imperial Aunt. Instead, you asked an elder like me to come and pay your respects to you first. I wonder what your uncle would think if he knew about this?" Su Luoxue stared at Xuan Haotian closely, with a half-smile on her lips, and said slowly.

"You..." Xuan Haotian couldn't help but think of what his uncle said in the palace that day, and for a moment he was unable to refute Su Luoxue. Facing the person in front of him, he felt somewhat helpless.

Su Qingrou, who was standing aside, was naturally so angry that her liver ached. She gnashed her teeth and cursed in her heart: "This Su Luoxue is really getting more and more powerful!"

"Prince, it is more important to take care of business first." Su Qingrou whispered softly in Xuan Haotian's ear.

Xuan Haotian nodded slightly, indicating that he understood, and then walked towards the place where the warm baby was placed. He stopped, pointed at the items, turned to look at Su Luoxue, and asked, "So, what are these?"

"A warm baby!" Su Luoxue answered without hesitation, then chuckled and added, "Haha, it seems that the prince must have never seen such an item."

Xuan Haotian suppressed his anger and said, "Humph! This prince has indeed never seen such an item, but I have heard that its effect is miraculous. In my opinion, such a wonderful physics should be presented to my father and mother for their enjoyment. Isn't it better?"

Su Luoxue saw this scene, and calmly looked at Xuan Haotian and Su Qingrou beside him, and slowly said: "This place is specially set up to help disaster victims, and these supplies are also provided free of charge to those who are most in need for emergency use. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to give them to the Emperor and the Empress, it is not a bad idea. You just need to pay the corresponding silver to buy them."

Then she added, "Since you two are both young people, I am willing to give you a certain discount. Each bag will only cost one hundred taels of silver."

Xuan Haotian flew into a rage upon hearing this, his voice deafening: "How dare you! How dare you ask this prince to pay for it? And you asked for a full 100 taels per bag, are you really planning to make a fortune from this? This is simply outrageous!"

Facing Xuan Haotian's angry rebuke, Su Luoxue did not show the slightest fear. Instead, she responded calmly, "Your Highness, please calm down and don't say such things. Transactions should be fair and voluntary. I did not force you. You certainly have the right to choose whether to buy or not."

"Sister, how can you say that? It is a great honor that the things you own can be enjoyed by our father and mother. How can the emperor have to pay for your things?" Su Qingrou hurriedly agreed with the prince.

However, just as Su Qingrou finished speaking, a voice suddenly sounded from behind.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Ning Wang Xuan Haochen walking towards them.

"I think what the Imperial Aunt said is very true." He first bowed to Su Luoxue, then took out a silver note with a face value of 1,000 taels and handed it to her, saying, "Imperial Aunt, this note can buy ten bags."

Su Luoxue gladly accepted the banknote and ordered someone to get ten packs of hot packs for Xuan Haochen.

"Thank you, Auntie." After Xuan Haochen thanked her, he turned his gaze to the prince and said slowly, "Brother, in my opinion, Auntie is right. These items were originally prepared for those in urgent need and the poor people. If we need them, we should pay for them. What's wrong with that?"

Before Xuan Haotian could respond, he turned around and walked forward, muttering to himself, "I have to go to the palace quickly so that my father and mother can also take a look at this rare item."

Xuan Haotian glared at Su Qingrou fiercely, his eyes seemed to complain: "Look at what a bad idea you came up with! Now Xuan Haochen has taken the lead." Although he was a little indignant, he changed his mind and thought that since Xuan Haochen had already bought one for the imperial concubine, how could his mother, the head of the palace, be left out? If so, wouldn't he be ridiculed?

Thinking of this, Xuan Haotian reluctantly took out a silver note of 1,000 taels from his pocket and bought ten bags of warm baby products. He turned around and left without even taking the things. Seeing this, Su Qingrou did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly followed. A small guard leader quickly stepped forward, took the ten bags of warm baby products handed to him, and followed closely behind.

Watching Xuan Haotian, Su Qingrou and their group leave, Su Luoxue raised the corner of her mouth. Humph, he was thinking, "Hey, he's taking advantage of me? That's impossible."
