After the death of Tao Hong, the people of Liuchun Pavilion were all changed. Side Consort Hu tried to make trouble, but it was useless. Jin Wang was not in the house and Consort Jin ignored her. Only then did Side Consort Hu realize that she was nothing.

Yaoniang was cooking on the stove early in the morning when she suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes outside.

Peeking through the curtains, she saw many people outside. She couldn’t tell who they belonged to even from their clothes

She couldn’t afford to look at them for too long and ran towards the bedroom.

Jin Wang sat on the bed and beside him was Xiaobao, crawling. She couldn’t tell what he was trying to do.

“Your Highness, a lot of people arrived.”

Jin Wang nodded and got up from the bed.

“It’s about time.”

Upon hearing this, Yaoniang breathed a sigh of relief…

So, the people here should belong to Jin Wang.

The people who came were indeed Jin Wang’s people. Yuchan also came, but she was in the carriage and Yaoniang did not see her.

They had nothing to pack. Once they got on the carriage, the group of people set off.

After a while on the road, Yaoniang realized that they were in a canyon. The landform features of this place were rare. The surrounding mountains blocked the cold air current, making this place be like spring all year round.

This was Jin Wang’s explanation to Yaoniang. Before they were about to leave the canyon, Yaoniang leaned out the carriage window and glanced back. She was surprised by the beauty of nature and had a hint of nostalgia in her eyes.

“If you want to come here again, this prince will accompany you.”

Upon hearing this, Yaoniang turned around to look at Jin Wang.

He still had a cold face and didn’t show even a change in expression as he said this. Seeing him like this, Yaoniang sighed in her heart. She couldn’t get away after all. This time she was deeply moved.

She looked towards Xiaobao who was next to her. Over the last few days, this child seemed to be very interested in Jin Wang. He enjoyed playing and touching him a lot. Although Jin Wang was reluctant, he was still tolerant of him.

Maybe it would get better and better in the future…

They stopped for breaks along the way and travelled for almost two entire days before finally arriving at Jin Wang Mansion.

The carriage entered through the main gate. This was the first time Yaoniang entered through the main gate of the residence. After the carriage stopped, a crowd of maids rushed up. Yuchan helped Yaoniang onto a sedan chair, and the group of people headed to Rongxi Courtyard.

The weather was very cold, and fine snowflakes were floating through the air. Coming out of the valley, it was like she entered an entirely different world.

Rongxi Courtyard was no different from the past. Hong Chou and the others’ eyes turned red as they stepped forward and saluted. Ah Xia was caught behind the crowd and it wasn’t until everyone had dispersed did she approach Xiaobao and stretch out her hand nervously.

Xiaobao glanced at her then turned around and leaned back into Yuchan’s arms.

Ah Xia cried, “While you were lost during this period of time, this servant had been worried every night…”

The voice could not continue. Her face turned pale from embarrassment as if she’d suffered severe trauma.

She wanted to cry more but Hong Die grabbed her and said, “Look, this is a happy day. Madam finally came back, why are you crying…” As she said this, she pulled her away.

Yaoniang was surrounded by people and went to the inner room. After a while, Hong Die returned and said to the young maids outside, “Why did you let her come here? No matter how kind the master is, she’s still an eyesore.”

Hong Chou turned to look at Yaoniang. Yaoniang appeared to have not heard anything.

Nanny He also came. When she saw Xiaobao, she stretched out her hand and touched him with red eyes. Distressed, she said, “My little young master, you have suffered this time.”

Niang He’s child died two months after her birth. Ever since she came here to serve Xiaobao, she treated him like her biological child.

Hong Chou asked, “Ah Xia, she…”

“Bestow her with ten taels of silver then return her to the small courtyard. She can’t serve at Xiaobao’s side.”

“Yes.”

After riding the carriage for so long, Yaoniang was also tired. After she took a shower, she went to rest.

She slept in a daze for a while and was awakened by noises outside.

She called out and Hong Chou walked in with annoyance on her face.

“What’s the matter?”

Hong Chou hesitated. “Ah Xia cried and said that she wanted to see Mada. This servant asked people to drag her away, but she still wouldn’t leave …”

Yaoniang thought for a moment. “Let her come in.”

Ah Xia was soon led in.

Her seemingly always innocent face was washed in tears. Her eyes were red and swollen while her face was covered in sadness and unwillingness. Yaoniang thought back to what Ah Xia was like when she first met her, but she realized that she couldn’t remember.

“Madam, don’t let this servant leave. This servant knows that she was wrong. Every day and every night, this servant had not been at peace. This servant really didn’t do it on purpose…”

“Do you know where you were wrong?” Yaoniang’s soft voice sounded. There was no sadness, no anger, no joy, just gentleness. Nothing but gentleness.

Ah Xia was startled, she wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Yaoniang, “Indeed, you weren’t wrong. You only did everything I wanted. I missed Xiaobao, so you gave me that slip of paper. I wanted to leave the manor, even though you felt troubled, you still helped me find Zhou Sheng. I didn’t want Hong Chou and the others to know, so you helped me hide from them and even helped cover up for me…

“You are indeed right. No one can find fault with you. Even if Xiaobao was lost, it could be explained that you are young and ignorant. Dong’er was also someone you trusted and came from your hometown. You didn’t expect any of this to happen. But did you know? It was because you made no mistakes that it appeared as if you harboured ulterior motives. Oh, I forgot to mention that before I came back, His Highness told me that you went to him. It seems to be that as soon as I left the manor, you went to Zhaohui Hall to report me! “

The author has something to say:

Regarding the exposure of Xiaobao’s father, many people asked why, despite the many clues, couldn’t anyone recognize the truth? Was everyone blind? Did Jin Wang’s hidden guards not eat enough?

Let me explain:

1.? “…But what hadn’t been expected was that there was a person hidden behind this girl. We also discovered this too late and as for Side Consort Hu, you told me not to…so…”

That’s why they only knew the result and not how it happened in the first place. At first, they chalked it up to a private matter of the backyard. It was only when the person died, and Tao Hong exposed her tail, did they realize that it wasn’t that simple.

(This paragraph should be able to explain that Jin Wang placed someone next to Side Consort Hu. Tao Hong was that person, but Tao Hong was actually a double agent. Not only did Jin Wang place Tao Hong, but there was also a hidden guard. Only because Side Consort Hu did something that made Jin Wang disgusted did he withdraw the guard.)

2. According to this chapter, Jin Wang thought at first that it was a typical instance of women in the backyard vying for favour. Side Consort Hu stole Xiaobao to deal with Yaoniang. Then Yong Wang’s people used Xiaobao to lure out Yaoniang, so Jin Wang thought that the ultimate goal was himself. It wasn’t until Tao Hong’s suicide and Tao Shan’s family’s death did Jin Wang realize that things were not so simple.

(The people in this story are not all-knowing or omnipotent. Nor did they have the perspective of a god. Only when they have clues could they follow the vine to get the melon.)

3. As for Feng Heizi, he knew that Jin Wang didn’t sleep with Side Consort Hu that night at the brothel, but he wasn’t aware that Jin Wang never touched Side Consort Hu even after he redeemed her because of his mental barrier. Tao Shan didn’t know this either. But Side Consort Hu knew that the little princess did not belong to Jin Wang, so she harboured killing intent. Knowing that Yaoniang was the righteous master, she stole Xiaobao, fearing that when he grew older, the secret would no longer be hidden. As for Yaoniang, once Xiaobao disappeared, it wouldn’t be too difficult to deal with her.

There was another person who knew everything. That was Tao Hong and the master behind Tao Hong. This was why they wanted to take Xiaobao away. (As to why they chose to take him away instead of directly killing him, there will be an explanation later)

4. Regarding the red mole: It was said in one of the previous chapters. Very few people know about it. The only reason why Mammy Mu even knew about it was because of a scheme. Emperor Hongjing had sent someone to inspect Jin Wang to verify his identity. As for why so few people know about this, if it became common knowledge, then they would be able to fake it. Jin Wang doesn’t know about this since he was too young at the time. Plus, I don’t think anyone will look carefully at the back of a person’s ear. Someone had asked why Jin Wang couldn’t recognize this mole. Not to mention whether he even looked at Xiaobao carefully, even if he saw it, he wouldn’t question it.
