Chapter 412 Giving Song Siyao Military Power
Someone exclaimed, "These rewards are actually the Immortal Herb of Heavenly Mountain, the Night-Shining Pearl of the South China Sea, and the finest jade from Lantian..."
These are all priceless treasures; any one of them would be worth a fortune.
Of course, these are forms of wealth.
What was truly astonishing was the tiger tally in the last tray.
That was real military power.
With power, wealth will naturally follow.
"Your Highness, these gold and silver treasures are a reward for you for bearing a prince or grandson. As for this tiger tally, it originally belonged to the Duke of Protectorate. Now I am returning it to its rightful owner. No one has the right to take it back. In the future, you may pass it on to your children."
Under heaven, all land belongs to the emperor. As a subject, what military power do I have? It is all bestowed by the emperor.
With the Duke of Huguo facing an unfortunate calamity, his military power naturally returned to Emperor Changlong's hands. Emperor Changlong had no need to reward Song Siyao; he was merely using this as a pretext to grant Song Siyao a safeguard.
Moreover, a gentleman's word is his bond, and he promised in front of everyone that no one could take back Song Siyao's tiger tally, and even if Shen Pei ascended the throne in the future, he would not have the right to take back Song Siyao's military power.
This is the glory and wealth that so many people dream of, the pursuit they exhaust their entire lives for.
Song Siyao got it so easily, which made many people present instantly envious.
Does Song Siyao even deserve it? What makes her so special?
Jiang was so angry she almost gritted her teeth. She glared fiercely at Song Siyao, but a moment later, a ruthless smile appeared on her lips. "Song Siyao, your good days are coming to an end!"
When Consort De's gaze fell on Song Siyao, it instantly turned into a sharp blade tempered with ice, as if she wanted to tear Song Siyao to pieces.
Her son was Emperor Changlong's biological son. The mother and son tried their best to please Emperor Changlong, but they gained nothing. Instead, Song Siyao, an outsider, took advantage of them.
What's so great about Song Siyao? She just gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl. Jiang Yu also gave birth to a son, who is the eldest grandson of the emperor.
She looked at Jiang Yu with icy eyes and cursed inwardly, "Useless thing, she gave birth to a son but doesn't make good use of him, she can't compete with Song Siyao in anything."
Since Jiang Yu was useless, she decided to do it herself.
Just as Song Siyao was about to express her gratitude, Consort De spoke up, "The Crown Princess is truly blessed to have such a good father. Even though he's no longer alive, he can still protect you. Consequently, your sons and daughters are also fortunate, unlike the eldest grandson of the Emperor..."
As she said this, she picked up a handkerchief and gently wiped away non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes.
Then she added, "My poor, dear grandson."
Jiang Yu was very perceptive and quickly handed Shen An over to Consort De.
Consort De held Shen An in her arms, her tender expression as if she were looking at the apple of her eye.
"An'er is already the greatest blessing in his life to be loved so much by Consort De. He dares not ask for anything more." Jiang Yu used the tactic of retreating to advance.
"Nonsense!" Consort De scolded Jiang Yu. "What do you mean by his greatest blessing in this life? He is the eldest grandson of the emperor, protected by the royal family. His blessings are yet to come."
The two had finished their performance, and Consort De looked at Emperor Changlong, seizing the opportunity to speak, "Your Majesty, I wish to ask for a favor for An'er. I beg Your Majesty to grant it."
Emperor Changlong raised an eyebrow, a cold glint in his eyes. "What do you wish to ask for?"
“Your Majesty, An’er is, after all, the eldest grandson of the Emperor. When he grows up, he will inevitably feel inferior, lost, and sad when he sees that his younger siblings have military power to protect them while he has nothing. I would like to ask Your Majesty for a military tally for An’er, not for any other reason than to ensure his safety.”
Consort De believed that her words were perfect and sincere, and would surely strike a chord with Emperor Changlong, resonate with him, and thus make him sympathize with and pity Shen An, thereby achieving her own goal.
Unfortunately, Emperor Changlong's cold and slightly angry voice shattered her beautiful dream.
Do you want everything that others have?
"Concubine..."
Emperor Changlong interrupted Consort De, saying, "Human nature is inherently good. Children are simple-minded and don't know how to covet what belongs to others. I think the problem lies with the people who raised him. If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too!"
Jiang Yu immediately knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, this humble woman dares not harbor such thoughts, please Your Majesty investigate thoroughly."
Shen An was raised by her side. Consort De wanted to use Shen An to seize benefits, but the plan failed, and it was she who was punished.
"what……"
At this moment, Shen An's crying suddenly broke out. Consort De subtly released her grip on Shen An's body and quickly coaxed her softly, "Oh, good girl, don't cry, your grandmother is here."
However, Shen An cried even harder.
For several months after Shen An was born, Consort De never gave him anything, nor did she ever look at him on her own initiative.
To Shen An, Consort De was a complete stranger.
Moreover, it was a stranger who had just pinched him so hard it hurt.
He can't speak, but he is afraid.
After coaxing her for a while, Consort De became a little impatient. Emperor Changlong was displeased, as they had ruined such a pleasant atmosphere. He scolded Jiang Yu, "Hurry up and carry her away!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Jiang Yu quickly picked up Shen An and coaxed him back to his seat.
"Consort De, I've never seen you so attentive to the children before, today is quite an exception!" Emperor Changlong had no intention of letting Consort De off the hook.
