Chapter 1241: Chapter 35: The Pearl Collector and the Princess
The ministers who opposed before chose selective amnesia.
What? When did we ever oppose the new Emperor’s ascension? No, absolutely not. You must have remembered wrong, really, definitely wrong. The current Emperor is wise, brave, and far-sighted, and now our country is peaceful, the people live and work in peace and happiness, life is getting better and better, and it’s all the new Emperor’s achievement... Hey, wait, don’t go, I haven’t finished speaking. A sycophant? You call me a sycophant? Don’t think that just because you walked away, I didn’t hear it! When was I ever a sycophant? What I said is all true, okay?
In a blink of an eye, Tang Zhishi and Li Qinghe had been married for almost a year.
One day, Tianmiao summoned them to the palace.
After greeting him, Tianmiao asked them to sit down, then took out a pearl.
"Qinghe, do you remember this pearl?" Tianmiao asked with a smile.
Li Qinghe was stunned, looked carefully, and her expression became a bit excited.
This pearl was the first one she collected from the sea, and then she gave it to Tianmiao. Unexpectedly, Tianmiao kept it so well.
"You gave me such a precious gift. I said I would also give you a gift, remember that?" Tianmiao smiled.
Li Qinghe was a bit confused. She couldn’t really remember Tianmiao saying that because she never thought of reciprocating Tianmiao’s friendship.
"Come." Tianmiao Chong signaled Li Qinghe, motioning her to come over.
Li Qinghe stood up and walked towards Tianmiao.
Tang Zhishi was somewhat bewildered and a bit nervous. Although he knew the Emperor treated Qinghe well and nothing bad could happen to her, at this moment, he just felt like something big was about to happen, so he was subconsciously nervous.
"Eat this." Tianmiao took out a pill and handed it to Li Qinghe.
Tang Zhishi widened his eyes at the pill. So big? It was as big as half of Qinghe’s fist! What kind of medicine was this? And even from so far, he smelled a terrible odor, terrible was an understatement, it was really stinky!
"Your Majesty—" Tang Zhishi couldn’t help but speak. It just felt like something was not right with that pill.
"Chomp on it." Tianmiao ignored Tang Zhishi, smilingly said to Li Qinghe.
Li Qinghe didn’t hesitate, brought it to her mouth, and started chewing. After one bite, her eyes lit up. Even though the pill smelled really stinky, it tasted delicious. That’s right, Li Qinghe was very certain, the pill was unbelievably stinky! When Tianmiao took it out, the whole room was filled with the smell.
"Is it tasty?" Tianmiao still smiling, asked.
Li Qinghe nodded, quickened her eating pace.
Tang Zhishi was dumbfounded, the smell kind of resembled feces, yet why did his wife eat it so deliciously, even called it tasty? Since when did his wife have such an eccentric taste?
"Alright, you two can go back now." Tianmiao, after Li Qinghe finished eating, waved to signal them to leave.
Tang Zhishi, dumbfounded, took Li Qinghe back.
On the carriage, Tang Zhishi finally couldn’t hold back, carefully said: "Wife, don’t you think the pill the Emperor gave you tasted too strong, that taste, very much like poop..."
"You’re the one eating poop!" Li Qinghe got angry, pinched Tang Zhishi’s waist, "That thing was delicious, I’ve never tasted something so good."
After saying this, Li Qinghe was petrified. Just now, she spoke?
Tang Zhishi widened his eyes, looking at Li Qinghe incredulously, then a huge joy overwhelmed him.
"Wife, you can talk?!! The pill the Emperor gave you cured you?" Tang Zhishi said, ecstatic.
Li Qinghe touched her throat, tentatively made a sound: "Ah... yes..." Then, Li Qinghe’s tears started to flow.
At this moment, she understood what Tianmiao meant by giving her a gift.
(The pill was made of durian, it was just Tianmiao’s mischievous side. This story is about to end.)
