Chapter 1172: Chapter 934 The Truth (14) Suisui liked these yellow and white objects the most.
The Empress Dowager Xiao was also quite embarrassed and hurriedly said, "A child speaks without thinking, please don’t mind her."
The Yi Prince Consort gave a sheepish smile, "Indeed, I do have a strong medicinal smell on me, she’s not wrong, what is there to mind?"
Though she spoke as such, she truly felt uneasy in her heart.
"Why does this Grandma have such a strong smell of medicine?
Doesn’t it make you feel uncomfortable to have such a scent on you?"
As soon as Xiaosuisui said this, the Empress Dowager Xiao’s expression changed, and she quickly put on a stern face.
"Suisui, mind your manners, come and greet the Yi Prince Consort Grandma properly."
The words ’Yi Prince Consort Grandma’ were a bit long for Xiaosuisui, so she simply abbreviated it to "Prince Consort Grandma!"
The Yi Prince Consort patted herself, then remembered that she had been living a frugal lifestyle for years, with simple dress and no jewelry suitable for a child as a meeting gift.
"Oh dear, I don’t have anything to give as a meeting gift, here’s a jade pendant, it will have to do as a meeting gift for you!"
The Empress Dowager Xiao hurried to stop her, "But that’s from the Prince, you cherished it dearly, how could you give it away to a child?"
The Yi Prince Consort, feeling embarrassed, replied, "This is my first time meeting the child, and she called me Grandma for free, I gained a granddaughter out of nowhere. A meeting gift cannot be omitted. Although this was given by the Prince, I seldom wear it, so it’s appropriate for the child."
"Are you really sure you don’t wear it often? Just look how smooth those corners are?"
The Yi Prince Consort blushed and stayed silent.
"If you truly wish to give a meeting gift, you could give her a large gold ingot."
"Ah! But that’s something used as a reward for servants, how could I give it to a noble Princess with a title?"
"Don’t treat her like a noble Princess; she’s just an ordinary person who delights in gold and silver things!"
Xiaosuisui nodded eagerly: Yes, yes! I’m just an ordinary person, the more gold and silver, the better!
"Is this suitable?" The Yi Prince Consort hesitated a bit.
"It’s suitable, Prince Consort Grandma, I absolutely love gold ingots, silver ingots, and I also like gold beads. If they’re big, I’ll use them to play bounce ball; if they’re small, I’ll use them as hidden weapons to save my life in critical moments!"
The Yi Prince Consort was speechless.
The Empress Dowager Xiao held her forehead, this greedy girl was hopeless.
"Just as it happens, I have a bag of gold beads here! They’re all yours!"
The bag of gold beads weighed at least ten taels.
All of these had been prepared by the Yi Prince Consort in case of any unforeseen needs before she left.
Afraid of being too late and not being able to open the Palace gate, she planned to compensate the guards at the Palace gate, and the eunuch and palace maid messengers!
Unexpectedly, none of the eunuchs, palace maids, nor guards got them, instead they all went to this little Princess!
"Thank you, Prince Consort Grandma, these are perfect for me to use as hidden weapons. I was originally thinking of having my third uncle prepare some for me, now I’ve saved my third uncle a considerable amount!"
When giving gifts, it’s all about giving something the receiver really loves. Seeing her so happy, the Yi Prince Consort felt relieved, and she also began to smile.
"As long as you like it, if you ever run out, just come to the Yi Prince’s Mansion, Prince Consort Grandma will have someone give you more!"
Xiaosuisui’s eyes shone at these words.
"Really?"
"Of course, Grandma is so old already, how could I deceive you?"
"Thank you, Prince Consort Grandma, it would be rude not to reciprocate, I have a gift for Grandma too!"
As Xiaosuisui said this, she took out a medicine box from her pouch and spoke to Yuanyang beside her.
"Sister Yuanyang, please go to the Imperial Medical Bureau and fetch some herbs for me!"
Yuanyang asked, "What kind of medicine does the Princess require?"
Xiaosuisui immediately took out a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone to write a prescription, though the writing was hard to describe.
But the Yi Prince Consort could still see that it was indeed a prescription.
"This child can even write a prescription?"
"And this medicine box, it surprisingly came out of her little pouch, how amazing it is that such a small pouch could contain such a large medicine box!"
The Empress Dowager Xiao said, "You also have been on the battlefield with the Prince and General Ji, have you forgotten what kind of family the Ji Family is?
General Ji was just like the National Master, a reclusive master."
"Indeed, it’s a pity about General Ji, so young. I wonder if the children of the Ji Family have learned his skills!
But I suppose they have, otherwise Xiling might not have been destroyed this time. I heard it was the Eighth Young Master who personally led the troops this time, is it true that he has been studying General Ji’s military tactics?"
Speaking of this, the Yi Prince Consort grew excited.
