Chapter 621: Successfully rescued the driver
However, in this emergency, by the time the imperial physician arrives, the opportunity will probably be lost.
Just when everyone was extremely anxious, Ni'er stepped forward and volunteered, saying, "I have studied medicine for several years and have some knowledge of medical theory. Please allow me to treat the princess."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she felt as if she had grasped a life-saving straw and hurriedly said, "Quick, quick, quick, as long as you can cure the princess, I will definitely reward you handsomely!"
After getting the Queen Mother's consent, Ni'er did not dare to delay and hurried to the princess.
She whispered, "I'm sorry, Princess." Then, she hugged the princess's abdomen tightly from behind, tightening and loosening it over and over again.
Fortunately, she had practiced Kung Fu for several years, otherwise, she would not be able to hold this princess who was taller than her!
The moment the princess was picked up again, she suddenly started coughing violently, and then with a "wow" sound, she vomited out some of the things that were blocking her trachea.
As these things were spit out, the princess's face, which was as pale as paper, instantly returned to normal, and even had a little color.
Seeing this, Nier quickly and gently put the princess down so that she could stand steadily.
After the princess stood still, she took a few deep breaths, then touched her throat with her hand, seeming to still feel a little uncomfortable.
However, her eyes were no longer confused and frightened like before, but full of gratitude.
"Thank you for saving me..." The princess' voice was a little hoarse, but one could still hear her sincerity and gratitude.
Nier waved her hand quickly and said, "Princess, you are too kind. This is just a small favor."
At this time, the Queen Mother and Prince Li looked at the princess anxiously and asked with concern: "How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
The princess raised her lips slightly, revealing a gentle smile, and softly comforted them: "Mother, Sixth Brother, don't worry, I'm fine. I was just choked by a foreign object just now, and now I'm back to normal."
When the Queen Mother saw that her beloved daughter was safe and sound, the huge rock in her heart finally fell to the ground.
She turned to look at the nanny beside her and said in a deep voice, "Go and interrogate those who just assassinated us. Make sure they confess the truth and not hide anything."
Although the Queen Mother's voice was not loud, the majesty contained in it made people dare not neglect it in the slightest.
The nanny took the order and left. The Queen Mother then turned her gaze to Ni'er and said slowly, "You have done a great job in saving the emperor this time. No matter what kind of reward you want, you can speak frankly."
When Nier heard this, she was stunned. She never expected that she could ask for a reward.
Faced with the Queen Mother's words, she was a little confused for a moment and didn't know how to respond.
Seeing this, the princess quickly whispered in Nier's ear: "Don't be shy, just tell me what you want."
Nier knelt on her knees, leaned forward slightly, and lowered her head, looking humble and submissive.
She said loudly: "How dare I take credit for it? It is because of the princess' great fortune and the blessing of heaven that she was able to escape danger."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she felt happy and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
She thought to herself that after some time, she would pick an auspicious day to go to the temple and pray sincerely for an amulet. After returning, she would put it on her daughter herself to ensure her safety.
The Queen Mother was in a good mood and said to Nier in a friendly manner, "Of course, this reward must be given. Just ask and tell me what you like."
Nier thought about it for a moment and made some calculations in her mind.
She knew very well that if she specified what she wanted one by one, it might cause dissatisfaction among the officials and she would be considered greedy.
In comparison, gold and silver are the safest. Not only can they solve one's urgent needs, but the government will not think it is excessive.
So, Nier raised her head, looked at the Queen Mother with a frank look, and said bluntly: "I am just a vulgar person, and I am most interested in those gold and silver."
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother, Prince Li, and the Princess were stunned at first, and then they all laughed out loud at the same time.
There was no trace of sarcasm in this laughter, but instead it revealed appreciation for Nier's straightforward character.
Prince Li's gaze lingered on Ni'er for a moment, as if he was examining her.
He discovered that the delicacies made by this little girl were unique in the capital, and her request for rewards was also quite special. She only wanted gold and silver. What a thoughtful person!
Not only that, she was also proficient in medicine, which made the prince even more interested in Ni'er.
How many unknown talents does this little girl have?
Just as Prince Li was thinking to himself, the Queen Mother noticed his gaze and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.
The Queen Mother then winked at the nanny behind her, who understood and hurried forward to help Nier up.
"Hurry up and stand up, child." The Queen Mother said kindly, "Since the food you cooked is so delicious and has whetted the princess' appetite, and you have also done a great service in saving the emperor, I will reward you with a hundred taels of gold."
When Nier heard this, she couldn't help but feel delighted. She quickly thanked her and said, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for the reward!"
Just then, the princess's attention was attracted by the boxes that Nier brought.
She looked at the boxes curiously, wondering what was inside them.
The princess thought that if she didn't hurry up and ask now, she would probably miss the opportunity.
So she walked quickly to Nier, took her arm, and asked anxiously, "What's in these boxes of yours?"
Only then did Nier suddenly remember the existence of these boxes. She had originally just wanted to take the reward money and leave quickly, but she didn't expect that the princess would be interested in these boxes.
But since the princess asked, she naturally had to answer it well.
Nier thought for a moment, then replied respectfully: "Princess, every guest who dine in our restaurant has a chance to draw a blind box."
"This box is called a blind box, and it contains some small bamboo items."
"I thought that Princess, you might not have seen the things that ordinary people like us use, so I brought them here specially. You can keep them all."
After hearing this, the princess showed surprise on her face and walked towards the boxes with great interest.
"This is so interesting!" the princess said excitedly, "I don't want to keep them all. I want to try my luck by drawing a blind box like everyone else."
After saying that, the princess hesitated in front of the boxes for a while and finally chose one.
She opened the box carefully and saw an exquisite bamboo backpack inside. It was small and lovely.
"What is this? It's so delicate and beautiful." The princess stared at the object in front of her with curiosity, her eyes flashing with excitement.
