Chapter 478 The Restless Wet Nurse
Shangguan Tang talked for a long time before he finally made Gongsun Wan'er happy. Seeing her smile, Shangguan Tang waved his hand and gave her two shops.
Gongsun Wan'er was extremely surprised: "Given to me?"
Shangguan Tang: "You wish. I sold it to you and found something for you to do so that you don't have to think about it all day long."
Then she told Gongsun Wan'er about the charity opportunities in the Women's College.
"You are a princess, you can do many things that others can't do." Shangguan Tang patted Gongsun Wan'er's hand: "Instead of thinking about it at home, you might as well go and gain a good reputation. Once your reputation for charity spreads, no one will say that you are a vase princess."
Gongsun Wan'er's eyes lit up again and again: "Cousin, you are amazing. I am very interested in what you said. I am willing to do these things. My brother is the emperor and has devoted everything to the country and the people. His husband is also doing things for the people. I am a princess. If I can do these things well, it will reduce their burden."
Shangguan Tang nodded: "I'm glad you understand. By the way, let me ask you something, has anyone ever told you that you are not worthy of being a prince consort?"
Gongsun Wan'er paused, then suddenly thought of something, and her expression suddenly turned cold: "Yes, not only in my house, but also in the folks, there are people gossiping about it."
Because Su Minglang was becoming more and more outstanding, many people said that she was a vase princess and was not worthy of Su Minglang. She didn't know what was wrong with her at the time and did not refute these people. She began to doubt herself and got deeper and deeper into it.
Now that Shangguan Tang reminded her of this, Gongsun Wan'er suddenly felt as if she had suddenly been enlightened.
She was tricked!
Seeing that this silly sister finally figured it out, Shangguan Tang smiled and tempted her to think about it carefully and find out those who were gossiping.
Gongsun Wan'er actually thought of someone.
Shangguan Tang asked: "Who is it?"
Gongsun Wan'er said, "It's Donglan."
"Who is Donglan?"
"She is my daughter's wet nurse. She is very young and very beautiful."
Shangguan Tang: "...You are so generous that you even look for a beautiful wet nurse."
Gongsun Wan'er chuckled and said, "She's ugly. I was afraid my daughter would become ugly after drinking her milk, so I found someone who's pretty."
Shangguan Tang held his forehead and didn't want to say anything more.
"You should hurry back to your princess's mansion to deal with your affairs. I'm afraid this Donglan wants to climb into bed. After all, you also said that Su Minglang is getting better and better."
Upon hearing this, Gongsun Wan'er could no longer sit still and stood up suddenly.
Shangguan Tang was startled: "Be steady, be careful of the baby in your belly."
Gongsun Wan'er paused, and looked at Shangguan Tang dimly: "Oh, I forgot to tell my cousin's wife that you took my pulse wrongly yesterday. I am not pregnant."
Shangguan Tang: “…”
"Cousin, you'd better not practice medicine anymore. It's scary."
"..."
......
Su Minglang returned home and went to look for Gongsun Wan'er as usual, but he only saw Dong Lan, the wet nurse who was serving the two-year-old princess.
Dong Lan had a pretty face and a graceful figure. When she saw Su Minglang, she immediately ran over in a panic, "My Lord, you are finally back. The little princess has been crying and clamoring to see you."
There are many servants around the little princess, but because of her status as a wet nurse, Dong Lan is more favored by the little princess, and it is Dong Lan who takes care of the little princess on weekdays.
Su Minglang came to the little princess and saw her throwing a tantrum on the bed, crying loudly, so he hurried to comfort her. After finally coaxing her to sleep, Donglan came over with a cup of tea.
Su Minglang didn't think much about it and took it and started drinking.
Dong Lan's eyes moved slightly.
"You can't drink it!" Gongsun Wan'er hurried over, snatched the tea from Su Minglang's hand, pinched Dong Lan's face, and poured it into her mouth.
Su Minglang was startled: "Princess, what are you doing?"
Gongsun Wan'er pointed at Donglan who was picking her throat and said, "She has bad intentions. There's something wrong with the tea."
Su Minglang's expression changed and he immediately asked someone to hold Dong Lan down.
"I am wronged. I did nothing. Why did the princess wrongly accuse me? Just because you are a princess, do you have the right to bully others?" Dong Lan cried out that she was wronged, but her eyes were looking at Su Minglang: "My Lord, I really did nothing."
Gongsun Wan'er sneered, "Whether you did it or not, I will make my own judgment. Come, take her away."
Two guards came up and dragged Donglan away regardless of her struggle.
Su Minglang looked at Gongsun Wan'er.
Gongsun Wan'er walked to the bedside, opened the little princess's clothes and checked: "Fortunately, my daughter was not abused."
If she let Donglan bully her daughter under her nose, she would be a irresponsible mother.
"Princess, what happened?"
Su Minglang was completely confused.
Gongsun Wan'er said, "That Donglan has evil intentions towards you. I was confused before and didn't notice her wrongness in time. Now that I think carefully about what she did before, I know her ambitions."
Su Minglang frowned: "There's no way I'd fall in love with her."
Gongsun Wan'er nodded: "I know you won't."
She handed the teacup to Su Minglang and said, "Let the court doctor take a good look at it."
Su Minglang frowned: "Is there poison in the tea?"
Gongsun Wan'er shook her head: "I don't know, I just said it casually."
The corner of Su Minglang's mouth twitched. You said something nonsense without knowing whether it was poisonous or not, and you even arrested someone.
Su Minglang asked his confidant to take the teacup to find the court doctor. After a while, the confidant came back and said that the tea was indeed poisonous. It was the poison of the Albizzia julibrissin. This poison would take two hours to take effect and was slightly different from the ordinary Albizzia julibrissin poison.
Gongsun Wan'er was immediately furious: "This slut actually poisoned the tea?"
Su Minglang’s face also darkened.
Gongsun Wan'er walked out and said, "I'll deal with her, you take care of the child."
Su Minglang replied: "Okay."
Oh no, the princess is angry, how can I comfort her?
Today is the princess’ birthday!
He had finally managed to make her happy yesterday, but that damn Dong Lan caused such a scene today, which made him so mad!
The little princess was sleeping soundly on the bed. What happened to the adults did not affect her sleep at all.
Su Minglang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You are as careless as your mother."
Su Minglang didn't know how Gongsun Wan'er dealt with Dong Lan, but by the time of the banquet in the evening, Dong Lan had disappeared.
Gongsun Wan'er still didn't hold a big celebration for her birthday this year. She only invited people she was close to to celebrate and set up three tables of food at her house.
Shangguan Tang's entire family was present, and both adults and children prepared gifts for Gongsun Wan'er.
After dinner, Gongsun Wan'er quietly took Shangguan Tang to a deserted place and told him about Donglan.
"I sold her to a brothel." Gongsun Wan'er said coldly, "Doesn't she like to seduce men? Then let her seduce a few more men."
