Quickly wear it and get rid of his virtuous character
Chapter 489: Princess in the Deep Palace 3
Su Tong was carrying a food box filled with steaming hot pastries that had just been made in the kitchen, and was ready to go meet the legendary father.
As soon as she walked out of the yard, she ran into Concubine An, who had just returned from the Queen's visit. She had a happy look on her face, and was wearing a fine crimson brocade palace dress, looking very high-spirited.
Seeing Su Tong holding the box, Concubine An did not care about her daughter's meal. Instead, she said indifferently, "Didn't you say you were not feeling well? Why don't you stay in your own palace? These maids are not serving you well. Just sell them off. I will replace them with new ones when the time comes. And you have to learn how to rule your subordinates."
Su Tong looked at the woman in front of him. Although she was about 30 years old, perhaps because of proper maintenance, she looked only in her twenties. Perhaps because of her recent happiness, her face was also quite rosy.
"Your Highness, what position are you standing on to say these things to me? In terms of status, I am a princess. Although Your Highness is my stepmother, my legal mother is the Empress." Su Tong is not as submissive as the original owner, not to mention that he has been adopted by the Empress, so he has no respect for Concubine An at all.
An Guipin's face changed and she turned around slightly. The senior palace maid beside her took away several palace maids and eunuchs around her, obviously to clear the place for the mother and daughter.
"You damn child, I am your biological mother. Are you really blaming me for such a small matter? But everything I did was for your own good!
Think about it carefully. You are just a princess. Even if you get married, you can probably only marry an ordinary man from a noble family. But now you are going to the border areas to marry a princess. This is something that others dare not even dream of. Maybe you can even become the queen of a country in the future.
You are still young and don’t understand what I have done for you, but when you grow up you will understand how rare and precious this opportunity is.
You are not young anymore. We have been an orphan and a widow for a long time in this deep palace. Now we have finally made it out. If I can take this opportunity to give birth to a younger brother for you, then you will have someone to rely on in the future."
Su Tong smiled sarcastically, "If this is really that good, why are those sisters unwilling to go according to their status? The eldest sister should be the most suitable.
The so-called marrying the prince is nothing more than marrying a sickly man. It is a marriage between two countries. Even if the prince dies, I estimate that she can only live a secluded life for the rest of her life.
Lady An Guipin, I have repaid your kindness in giving birth to me. From now on, you and I will no longer owe each other anything."
Concubine An was so angry that she jumped up and down, "What do you know? He is the crown prince. As long as you marry him and get pregnant quickly, you will be the future queen mother."
Su Tong didn't want to say anything more to her. If he knew magic, he would definitely turn Concubine An into himself and let her marry in his place, and then let her taste the pain of marrying in.
"My dear daughter, although you have been adopted by the Queen, you are still my biological child. The Queen has also promised that after this is done, not only will my position be elevated, but your grandfathers and cousins will also receive other rewards."
When An Guipin said this, her face was full of pride, "I came to the palace to take care of the family, but since you were born, the emperor has never come to see me again, and the harem is almost forgetting about both mother and me.
But everything changed after you got married. Everyone in the harem knew about us, mother and daughter. Even the emperor often came to visit me. This is something I never dared to dream of..."
This woman is really crazy. No, to be precise, this woman has always been selfish. If the original owner's daughter could not really bring her benefits, she probably would not care about her daughter.
Su Tong said with a cold face, "An Guipin, since this is what you asked for, you must enjoy it well. I just hope you won't regret it.
Also, since I have been adopted by the Empress, from now on the Empress is my mother. This will be recorded in the history books. The status of Concubine An and I are different. Unless it is important for us to do so, we should not meet each other in the future."
After Su Tong said this, he walked outside with his food box. Several palace maids followed Su Tong and went to Tai'an Hall where the emperor was.
"Isn't this the Fourth Princess? Why are you here in such hot weather? If there's anything, just let the servants inform her." Eunuch Su smiled and even asked the chief eunuch to bring out a parasol, but his words did not indicate that he wanted Su Tong to go in.
The fourth princess Su Tong was not favored to begin with, and she came to Tai'an Palace only a handful of times. Eunuch Su was a popular figure around the emperor, and the fact that he remembered her was a sign of favor.
Su Tong nodded slightly, "Eunuch Su, this princess made some cakes and wanted to invite the emperor to taste them. I wonder if Eunuch Su could go and let him know."
If it were in the past, Eunuch Su would have definitely refused and made an excuse that the emperor was busy with official duties and might not have time to summon the princess. But now Su Tong is a popular figure, and the matter of marriage alone has attracted the attention of the former court and the harem, at least solving a big problem for the emperor.
"Please wait a moment, Princess." Eunuch Su hesitated for a while, but still walked into the hall. The emperor was reviewing memorials and looked at Eunuch Su coming without even raising his eyes.
"Who's outside?" the emperor asked indifferently. After learning that it was Su Tong, he put down the red pen.
"If I remember correctly, the fourth princess was feeling unwell a while ago and didn't even eat much. She is now recuperating in her palace. How come she came here in such hot weather? What's the matter?
Forget it, let someone come in. I also want to ask her what she thinks."
The emperor actually hesitated a little bit whether he should send his own daughter to marry. After all, she was his own flesh and blood. Moreover, the emperor was far away from home. If his daughter was wronged, she would have no way to complain. If it really didn't work, he could find a daughter of the royal family, or choose one from the daughters of ministers...
The emperor was in a dilemma. When he saw Su Tong, a loving look appeared on his face. "I heard that you made some cakes for me. You are so thoughtful. Bring them out and let me taste them."
Su Tong took out the mung bean cake made in the small kitchen. Because he didn't want it to be too sweet or greasy, he put some honey in the mung bean cake. The taste was just right and it melted in the mouth. With a little mint, there was a fresh smell between breaths.
The emperor took a sip and his eyes lit up, "This pastry is really unique. You are thoughtful."
Su Tong bowed her head and then knelt on the ground, "Father has been busy with state affairs, and your daughter enjoys the worship of the people. I cannot make a big contribution to your father, so I can only work hard on this little thing.
In fact, my daughter came here this time to ask for something from you, father."
The emperor's expression gradually became more solemn. Although he knew that his daughters did not want to marry, he had to sacrifice his daughters for the sake of his country. He hoped that his daughters would speak up, but he also did not want the other party to speak up.
