Chapter 55
Yuxiu helped her to think about it, and speculated: "Maybe it's the young lady who was brought by a wife who was attending the banquet..."

"Strange..." Yuxiu looked around, "Why didn't even the servant see it? Just put a little girl here..."

Xie Tinglan was silent for a moment, holding on to the red pillars in the corridor, he started to walk, "Go and have a look."

Yuxiu followed her footsteps, and the two of them took a detour, walked down the corridor and walked to the open space in front.

As the two approached, they realized that there were still several stacks of side dishes on the stone table beside the little girl, which was frighteningly shabby.

A shadow fell on the top of the head, and the little girl also noticed it, and slowly raised her head.

Seeing her face clearly, Yuxiu was taken aback, and exclaimed: "Ten Ten Ten—Princess Ten!!"

Yuxiu hastily saluted: "My maidservant greets Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Obediently, this is the empress's precious daughter, the tenth princess Fu Jiaojiao!
Yuxiu's eyes kept lingering on Fu Jiaojiao and the leftovers on the table. Fu Jiaojiao wore brocade clothes, but ate what looked like leftovers.

Yuxiu quietly swallowed her saliva, guessing wildly in her mind, whether she and the young lady bumped into some secret palace wall.

She pulled Xie Tinglan's clothes in fear, and said to herself that if someone came later, she must drag the young lady and run away first, so as to save people from knowing that they bumped into them, and the young lady would get into any trouble.

Fu Jiaojiao ignored Yuxiu, she turned her head to look at the ground again, Xie Tinglan realized after getting closer that Fu Jiaojiao was looking at the ants carrying food on the ground.

She grabbed a small piece of the steamed bun in her hand and put it on the ground, staring blankly at the ants moving the steamed bun away, as if she couldn't get tired of watching it.

Xie Tinglan knew that the tenth princess, Fu Jiaojiao, was born with flaws, such as speech and action slowness, and she was very pityed by the emperor and empress.

just now?

Xie Tinglan looked at it for a while, then squatted down, looked at Fu Jiaojiao's profile, and said softly, "You don't need to tear so many small pieces, they can remove a whole steamed bun."

Fu Jiaojiao had been paying attention to watching the ants carry the food, but when she heard such a sentence in her ear, she blinked her motionless eyelashes.

Seeing her reaction, Xie Tinglan said further: "Would you like to give it a try?"

Fu Jiaojiao slowly looked at the remaining half of the steamed bun in her hand, and then at the ants colony. After a long time, Xie Tinglan's legs were a little numb before she slowly stretched out her hand.

The half piece of steamed bun placed on the ground quickly attracted many ants, densely packed under the steamed bun.

Xie Tinglan looked away with some discomfort, and focused on Fu Jiaojiao, thinking a lot.

"They really moved!"

The dazed little girl in front of her suddenly opened her mouth, and there was a little light in her dazed pupils, as if she had discovered something particularly interesting.

Fu Jiaojiao looked at Xie Tinglan, and said softly, "It's amazing..."

The little girl stared at Xie Tinglan, with a hint of admiration in her tone, "How do you know that they... can be moved away? Can you talk to them?"

It took a lot of effort for the little girl to complete the question.

Xie Tinglan smiled softly and patted her head: "We can't talk to small animals. They can move such a large steamed bun because they have a lot and because they are united."

"Unity..."

Fu Jiaojiao muttered a few words.

The ants had moved the steamed buns far away, and there were no more ants around the two of them, so Fu Jiaojiao wanted to stand up.

I don't know how long she squatted, but just when she straightened up a little, she staggered and fell down.

Xie Tinglan took him into his arms with quick eyes and hands, her legs were also numb, but fortunately Yuxiu kept staring at her so that Xie Tinglan and Fu Jiaojiao didn't fall into a ball.

When Xie Tinglan hugged Fu Jiaojiao in his arms, his hand happened to touch her stomach, which was deflated.

"Thank you..." Fu Jiaojiao smelled the fragrance on her body, couldn't help shrinking her hand holding her clothes, but quickly let go, and thanked her softly.

Xie Tinglan used all his strength to carry her to the stone bench and sit down.

After rubbing Fu Jiaojiao's calf, Xie Tinglan paid attention to the food on the table when her complexion improved.

There was no sign of the food being tampered with, and she probably fed that piece of steamed bun to the ants.

Xie Tinglan sighed silently, and asked Fu Jiaojiao, "Where did you take your nanny?"

Fu Jiaojiao put her hands on her lap obediently, "Nurse, busy."

"Is the food left for you by the nanny?" Xie Tinglan continued to induce.

Fu Jiaojiao was silent for a while, before answering: "They, take, exchange with me... I will, I will, I will look better after eating this. Daddy, mother, aunt, brother, like it."

Fu Jiaojiao spoke and gestured slowly, Xie Tinglan and Yuxiu both understood.

Xie Tinglan's face was very gloomy, Yuxie's small face was flushed, and she squeezed out a few words from between her teeth: "A bunch of bastards!"

This is obviously serving Fu Jiaojiao's servant, seeing that the tenth princess foolishly lied to her deliberately.

The tenth princess didn't like to talk at all, and she couldn't explain the complicated things clearly, and she didn't understand these twists and turns, so the possibility of revealing her secrets in front of the emperor and empress was very low.

These people probably got away with it once or twice, and then kicked their noses on their faces.

Xie Tinglan breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Fu Jiaojiao: "Princess, those people lied to you. They are bad people. Let me bring you back the things, okay?"

Fu Jiaojiao seemed to have been stabbed to death, the originally quiet child suddenly shook her head in panic.

"No, no, don't tell mother, aunt! Don't tell! Jiaojiao, go bad, mother, aunt, don't be Jiaojiao."

The more anxious the little girl was, the slower and more confused she spoke, and she couldn't help but shed tears.

Xie Tinglan coaxed her a few times, but Fu Jiaojiao saw that she didn't seem to want her to complain, so she slowly calmed down, her small body curled up in Xie Tinglan's arms, sobbing.

Xie Tinglan waited for her to calm down before slowly sorting out with her, pulling out all the fears that those bastards had left in her head before.

After spending a lot of effort, Fu Jiaojiao understood half of what she heard, and although she still resisted to exchange things with Xie Tinglan, fortunately she would not cry so badly.

With a pair of red eyes, she asked Xie Tinglan: "Tell me, mother, aunt, do you still want to be Jiaojiao?"

"They'll always want princesses. I promise."

The little girl was so soft-hearted, as if she believed those bastards easily, she believed Xie Tinglan's words after saying it several times.

She held Xie Tinglan's fingers worriedly, and said word by word: "They are very strong, there are many people..."

Xie Tinglan gently held her little hand in the palm of her hand, and said softly: "Jiaojiao, this little ant, can't move the steamed buns. If we move together, we will definitely be able to move it."

"Jiaojiao, don't move, steamed buns." Fu Jiaojiao blinked and said.

Xie Tinglan couldn't help laughing, she forgot that Fu Jiaojiao didn't understand this metaphor, and said with a smile: "Yes, Jiaojiao won't move the steamed buns, we will bring back Jiaojiao's food."

Yuxiu covered her mouth and stood behind Xie Tinglan, and said with a smile, "Miss will definitely be a good mother in the future."

Xie Tinglan put Fu Jiaojiao down, took her hand, with a smile on his face, but his eyes were calm.

She replied, "Maybe."

If she has kids.
