From that night on, something seemed to have changed.
Jin Wang still had the same face as before, but he seemed to have changed a lot. At least he was getting along better with Xiaobao.
Before, he wouldn’t even spare him an extra look, but now, he was willing to maintain peace, at least for appearance’s sake. When Yaoniang was busy doing laundry and cooking, he would help look after the child.
Although Xiaobao was very well behaved, Yaoniang was always afraid that he would have an accident. Babies at his age were the most lively and naughty. They were full of curiosity for the world around them and didn’t have any understanding of fear. At their age, it was easy to fall or bump into something.
Yaoniang saw Xiaobao almost falling off the bed at least once before being caught by Jin Wang. Although the way he held him wasn’t very pretty, it was better than nothing.
“I’m only considering your mother’s face. Behave yourself. Don’t play your tricks with me or else be careful that this prince beats you!” After Yaoniang left, Jin Wang looked at Xiaobao, who was sitting on the bed, with a sneer.
Xiaobao had been practicing standing and moving, but now he had no one to support him. His mother needed to take care of the two of them on her own and Xiaobao was too embarrassed to trouble her. He could only practice by himself.
Unfortunately-
Unfortunately, everything was destroyed by this man in front of him!
Every time he wanted to get off the bed, he would be picked up by him. The way he held him from the collar made Xiaobao think he was picking up a cloth bag.
“A piggy will always be a piggy. Just focus on eating, drinking, and sleeping. Why bother with so many things?” He never stopped ridiculing him.
Xiaobao was very angry. To fight with the other party, he exerted a great amount of effort. For example, he would pretend to be innocent as he sprayed him with saliva, or sit beside him and pee. The latter method only ended up tiring out his mother and it was too dirty, so Xiaobao gave up on using it. The former method was a bit pathetic, but that man already lowered himself to fight with a baby, so this was like nothing.
Xiaobao bulged his cheeks, and with two puffs, saliva spurted out. He was still young so his control was not very precise. Only a little bit of the spray landed on Jin Wang’s, whereas a pool was on his own chin.
After he spurted out the saliva, he took advantage of the momentum to fall onto Jin Wang’s clothes and wiped his slobber on him. Seeing Jin Wang’s disgusted expression, he cooed with joy. Yaoniang could hear them even while standing in the kitchen.
She walked in with the freshly cooked dishes and a smile in her eyes, “Xiaobao, don’t be too naughty.” Then she apologized to Jin Wang, “Your Highness, he didn’t mean it.”
Jin Wang didn’t say a word. This prince won’t squabble with a child.
Xiaobao grinned and rubbed Jin Wang’s leg intimately. Jin Wang let him rub.
Once Yaoniang left, Xiaobao rolled away without any hesitation. Jin Wang was very disgusted as he wiped away the saliva on his legs.
Late at night, when Jin Wang saw that Yaoniang was asleep, he quietly climbed down the bed.
He walked outside. As soon as he was still, a dark figure approached him.
“…The drawing has been taken back. Eunuch Fu also asks when will you go back. Also, none of Yong Wang’s people that were arrested knew why they had to capture Xiaobao and Madam. They only knew to follow orders. Side Consort Hu’s previous maid’s entire family perished in a huge fire. Our people went to take a look and didn’t find a living thing. Tao Hong took poison and committed suicide, so only Side Consort Hu is left. Eunuch Fu said that he will wait for you to go back to deal with everything…”
Jin Wang frowned as he heard about how even Yong Wang’s people didn’t know why Xiaobao and Yaoniang were to be captured. When people who knew the inside story died one after another, it was obvious that something weird was going on.
At first, it was only women in the backyard vying for favour, but once Yong Wang’s people were mixed in, the taste changed a little. Yong Wang portrayed himself as frank and righteous, but what he liked most was to use shady means.
Tao Hong instigated Hu Mingyu to steal Xiaobao, then she secretly delivered Xiaobao into the hands of Yong Wang. Using Xiaobao, they lured Yaoniang out. Jin Wang thought that the ultimate goal was himself, but now reality showed that everything seemed to be unrelated to him. All the evidence pointed to them hiding something.
“We will return tomorrow.”
The shadow clasped his fists in acknowledgement then immediately left. Jin Wang stood outside for a while before going back inside.
On the other hand, Side Consort Hu could not fall asleep.
Ever since Tao Hong died, she fell into a complete panic.
She couldn’t forget the words that Tao Hong said to her before she died-.
“The only people in this world who know the truth now are you and me. You don’t have to worry about my death. Once I die, your death won’t be far off.”
Tao Hong was telling the truth. Feng Heizi and Tao Shan were both people that only knew some parts of the story but not the others. They only knew that the person that was lucky enough to be with Jin Wang that day was not her, but someone else. What they didn’t know was that the ‘someone else’ was Lady Su. They also didn’t know that once Jin Wang brought her back to the manor, he didn’t even touch her once.
There were very few people who knew this. Tao Hong was one of them. Tao Hong not only knew this secret but she also knew everything that Feng Heizi and Tao Shan knew. Only when the two sides were glued together did it make a complete story…
In this world, the only people who knew the entire story were herself and Tao Hong. Once Tao Hong got that bastard out of the manor, Side Consort Hu acted.
People who had blood on their hands were all like this. One kill versus two kills wasn’t a big difference.
It was a pity that Side Consort Hu planned everything well, except that Tao Hong was not a simple maid. Not only did she fail to kill the other party, but ended up being restrained by her. She spoke those words of warning and even told her that Tao Shan’s entire family was dead.
Ever since then, Side Consort Hu’s heart fell into a panic, all the way until Tao Hong’s death that day.
Side Consort Hu couldn’t help rubbing the pill in her palm. The pill was given to her by Tao Hong. She said that it was made from the juice of an upas tree, well known for its toxicity. She also mentioned that it would be useful for her one day.
At that time, Side Consort Hu wished to throw the pill as far away as possible, but for some reason, she didn’t. Over the last two days, she held this medicine in her hand and rubbed it from time to time. It seemed that this was the only way to feel at ease.
Side Consort Hu went to see the little princess today. The little princess has eaten a bit more recently and looked even more lovely. Every time she saw the little princess, Side Consort Hu’s heart turned into a pool of water and only wished to give her all the best things in the world.
Her daughter did have the best things in the world. She had a qinwang as a father and since she was the first child of Jin Wang, she was titled Junzhu right after she was born. It could be expected that she would marry a very good man in the future and enjoy riches and honour for a lifetime.
None of this could be destroyed.
No one can stand in her way! Including-
There was a knock on the door and a maid’s voice sounded from outside, “Your Highness, it’s time to rest.”
