Chapter 668: Chapter 521 - Susu is not so easy to bully, Double Seventh Festival leaves the palace, Xun Qingqing and others_2
Afterward, she pointed at the meat in Dabai’s mouth and said, "You’ve dropped your meat, I’ve come to return it to you."
Dabai lowered its head to place the meat on the ground, then raised its head again, looking at the group of people in front of it with a ferocious gaze, full of vigilance.
There had always been rumors that the young princess had been accompanied by a white tiger since she was a few months old, and that she could understand the tiger’s language, and the tiger heeded the young princess’s words.
Seeing this today truly broadened everyone’s horizons.
Eunuch De, taking courage, stepped forward to bow and took a glance at the meat on the ground, "Young princess, on such a hot day, it’s troublesome for you to make the trip yourself."
After completing her task, Susu did not stay long; she waved her hand, "I’m off now."
Eunuch De bent over to see her off, "Young princess, please take your time."
Susu turned around and walked out of the Imperial Kitchen with her little short legs taking cheerful steps.
Dabai glanced at the people in the Imperial Kitchen, causing them to inhale sharply in fear, then it took its eyes away and slowly followed behind Susu.
Once the young princess had walked away, a little eunuch couldn’t help but say, "Eunuch De, the young princess is so impressive. At such a young age, she can make this white tiger so obedient to her."
Eunuch De, watching the girl and the tiger, was full of admiration as well, "Indeed very impressive. No wonder she doesn’t have a single bodyguard by her side. With this white tiger, who would dare approach?"
The eunuch who had followed Susu saw that the white tiger not only didn’t eat the meat but even delivered it to the Imperial Kitchen, almost choking on his own blood out of shock.
The tiger brought the meat all the way to the Imperial Kitchen without eating it, what could this signify?
As the mission hadn’t been accomplished, the little eunuch could only return to report back.
Lady Chang became furious upon hearing that the task hadn’t been done.
"Utterly useless."
Huai Xiang tried to console her, "My lady, do not be angry, there will certainly be other opportunities."
Lady Chang picked up her teacup and took a few sips before feeling indignant again, "Where is Susu now?"
"According to that little eunuch, she is probably in the Imperial Study Room," replied Huai Xiang.
Lady Chang frowned, "The Imperial Study Room?"
What place was the Imperial Study Room?
It was where the Emperor conferred with the Ministers about important state affairs and military secrets, not to be entered without summons.
But Susu was free to come and go as she pleased, with no one daring to stop her.
This clearly demonstrated just how much the Emperor doted on this granddaughter of his.
The more it was so, the less Lady Chang could stomach it; what was within her grasp had been snatched away by Shen Chuwei.
"Shen Chuwei enjoys such favor simply because she gave birth to a daughter. Think of another plan; once she’s gone, I refuse to believe Shen Chuwei can remain so favored?"
Huai Xiang had been with Lady Chang for a long time, and she knew all too well the severity of the situation.
"My lady, rest assured, this servant will think about it thoroughly, there must be a way," Huai Xiang assured.

In the Imperial Study Room, the Emperor had brought Susu there countless times; even if Susu didn’t know the way, by now, she recognized it.
She swaggered through the market with Dabai, no one daring to come close or stop her—not only were they afraid of Dabai, but they were even more afraid of the little ancestor that was Susu.
Susu made her way to the Imperial Study Room.
Seeing Susu from afar, Eunuch Li approached with a smile and shaded her from the sunlight with his hand, "Young princess, on such a hot day, how come you didn’t have someone hold an umbrella for you?"
Susu thought for a moment and said, "I have Dabai." She turned her head to look at Dabai and added, "It doesn’t know how to hold an umbrella."
Eunuch Li glanced at Dabai; if it weren’t for the fact that they met often and he knew it wouldn’t attack people casually, he wouldn’t be standing here so calmly now.
"Young princess, please go inside; it’s cooler in there."
"Then in I go," Susu said and then walked inside.
Dabai followed her in.
At first, Eunuch Li objected to Dabai following her, but after Dabai roared furiously, scaring Eunuch Li until his legs went weak, and Dabai injured a guard who advanced, he relented.
When Susu saw a crowd surrounding Dabai, she immediately cried.
The Emperor, feeling heartbroken, then allowed Dabai to go inside with her.
The guards didn’t dare relax and followed inside as well, fearing that Dabai might suddenly go mad and bite people.
Strangely, once Dabai entered with Susu, it became exceptionally well-behaved, lying by the door motionless, like the stone lions at the entrance.
Ever since then, wherever Susu went, Dabai was allowed to follow.
After Susu went in, Eunuch Li instructed a little eunuch, "Go prepare some tasty pastries, the young princess’s favorites; hurry and do not let the young princess wait."
"This servant understands," said the little eunuch as he turned and ran off.
Susu leaned against the door frame, peeking inside.
Dabai stood behind Susu, mimicking her actions and also looking inside with a tilted head.
