“Xiaobao, tell your father what happened. Who told you that you won’t have a brother?” Jin Wang softened his expression and asked Xiaobao.

“She was carrying me. She held Xiaobao but she’s too ugly!”

“The young master slapped Side Consort Xu twice then said that she was ugly.” Chun’er hurriedly explained.

Jin Wang snorted, and his expression became extremely chilly again.

Yu Chan led Chun’er, who was crying softly, out. Yu Chan whispered to her, “From now on, don’t let anyone come in contact with the young master. Some people have wicked hearts and evil thoughts, so who knows what may happen.”

“Sister Yu Chan, this servant remembers and will never make the same mistake again.”

Consort Jin returned to the main courtyard and was greeted by Mommy Zhou as soon as she stepped inside.

“Your Highness, that side…”

Consort Jin gave her a look and Mommy Zhou immediately stopped what she wanted to say.

The consort sat down and drank a few sips of tea while someone massaged her shoulders and calves.

Zi Han carried over a tray of pastries from which the consort took two pieces. Once she finished them, she downed another half a cup of tea before she looked down from the Kang.

There was a bucket of ice in the corner of the room. With the windows wide open, a gentle breeze flew inside, making them all feel refreshed.

Mommy Zhou took the massaging tool from the young maid and started massaging the consort’s calves herself. Consort Jin closed her eyes but did not fall asleep, and the corners of her mouth lifted from time to time.

After giving orders for everyone to withdraw, then leaving Zi Meng to stand guard outside the door, Mommy Zhou asked in a low voice, “Your Highness, is that matter done?”

“When this consort left, both the mother and the son were safe and sound. “

Mother Zhou nodded quickly then asked, “Then…”

“Mommy Zhou, there’s no need to worry. Hot tofu can’t be swallowed in a rush. To be honest, this matter isn’t difficult to carry out. What is difficult is to do it in such a way that won’t cast any doubt on us.”

“Your Highness is right. Then shall we wait?” “

“Wait. “

She would wait until the bad news is reported to her, before acting all shocked and bewildered. Then she would take over and do everything that a consort ought to do.

Since His Highness dotes on that woman surnamed Su so much, he would definitely feel heartache for her two sons. But he was a man after all. There were still a lot of important matters that he needed to take care of outside the household. That Su woman was quite fortunate to have been able to give birth to two sons in a row. The older one is clever but the younger one is still ignorant. He would treat whoever gave him milk as his mother. She would actually prefer to raise the younger one, but the older one carries the identity of being the firstborn.

Then recalling how shocked Side Consort Xu was after getting slapped in the face twice, Consort Jin thought to herself that perhaps raising the older one would bring her some pleasant surprises.

Consort Jin felt an uncontrollable rush of excitement in her heart. Her emotions were threatening to overwhelm her. She sat up from the couch and planned to go take a short nap. By the time she woke up, she’d be sure to hear the cries of sorrow.

Consort Jin felt that she had only slept for a short while but by the time she awoke, it was already dark outside.

She called for her maids and Zi Yan and Zi Han walked in.

“What time is it?”

“Your Highness, it’s already xushi1.”

Consort Jin paused with surprise. “It’s already so late? This consort actually slept for an entire afternoon. What about that side? Has there been any news?”

Zi Han shook her head.

Consort Jin turned towards Zi Yan.

Zi Yan said, “This servant already ordered for people to keep watch but there hasn’t been any news yet. They didn’t even call for a doctor. Doctor Liu did make a visit but he came out soon after.”

“Perhaps the time hasn’t arrived yet,” she murmured.

Because of the unexpectedness of this situation, the consort only ate a few mouthfuls of dinner.

The air was sultry and despite the ice in the room, Consort Jin still felt a bit short of breath so she brought some people with her into the yard. With the bright moon hanging in the sky, a cool breeze blew by, carrying a faint fragrance of flowers. If this was any other day, there would’ve been an infinite sense of peace in her heart, but today there seemed to be an inexplicable sense of anxiety.

Unknowingly, she had already walked an entire lap. Then another lap. At the side, Zi Yan and the others didn’t dare to interrupt her, knowing that something was on the consort’s mind.

At this time, Zi Han rushed over, “Your Highness, that maid is back.”

Without even pausing to think for a moment, Consort Jin said, “Let her in.” After speaking, she turned around and returned inside.

Not long after, Zi Han walked in with a maid. Any of Yaoniang’s close servants would know that this maid, Qing Bi, was only a second-ranked maid who performed errands without making any contact with Yaoniang herself.

“Is it done?”

Qing Bi whispered, “This servant didn’t dare to speak to Midwife Cao but as for that matter, it is done. This servant saw Sister Hong Fei take the bowl of medicine inside so it should be drunk.”

Upon hearing this, Consort Jin showed a strange expression on her face. It was a mixture of sadness and joy, but also with a hint of twisted excitement.

“You go back first. Don’t expose yourself. In a few days, this consort will have someone send you out of the capital.”

“Then what about the things that were promised to this servant? Your Highness had promised to give this servant a sum of silver as well as return the slave deed once the matter was done.”

Consort Jin looked at Zi Yan. Zi Yan went into the back room, took out a box and handed it to Qing Bi.

Qing Bi opened it and took a look. Inside were indeed some banknotes for the amount promised to her. There was also a slave deed. She confirmed that the slave deed belonged to her before closing the box.

Suddenly, a voice sounded, “You really are this prince’s good consort.”

Consort Jin froze on the spot. Only after a long pause did she slowly turn her face around.

There in the shadows, by the beaded curtains, stood Jin Wang with his hands clasped behind his back. Beside him was someone dressed like a eunuch from the palace. It was Li Dequan.
