Lord Qian nodded and looked at Guard Wang.

Guard Wang stood up and cupped his hand in salute to Lord Qian, “Thank you, Lord Qian. I have to go back to Jin Wang Mansion to report, so I’ll be going now.”

Lord Qian followed him all the way to the front gate and waited until Guard Wang galloped away on his steed before turning back.

No one instructed Yao Cheng to leave and he dared not go either, so he stood still and waited.

When Lord Qian came back, he looked at Yao Cheng with an amiable visage, “I didn’t expect you to have such fortune. Your sister-in-law actually attends to the Little Princess of His Highness Jin Wang, Yao Cheng…”

Until Yao Cheng came out of the county government back hall, he was still slightly nonplussed.

Was Yaoniang that remarkable? He couldn’t help but think of Mama Liu’s words about the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister’s door that day. He somehow deemed the situation a dream. The county magistrate, who only acknowledged money but not people, looked at him differently. His sister-in-law seemed to catch the eye of a distinguished noble figure, because if not, how could they send people to check on a mere wet nurse?

Things worth celebrating came up one after another and eventually swept the dark clouds hovering over his family during this period. Yao Cheng intended to go home and inform Huiniang, appeasing his wife.

Yaoniang of course did not know about these occurrences in Linyun County.

When Zhou Sheng came back, he conveyed the words of Huiniang. Knowing that her sister was alright and Xiaobao was well-behaved, Yaoniang heaved a sigh of relief. She was too busy dealing with Jin Wang and couldn’t think about anything else. She felt that she couldn’t have a good night’s sleep these days.

The day was getting hotter. This month’s assortment for the small courtyard had just been distributed, and there was ice in it.

The ice was given not only to the little princess and Mammy Mu, but also to the three wet nurses. contemporary romance

This matter was arranged by Fucheng. It was said the nannies worked hard to attend to the little princess every day. If it was too hot during the day, the little princess would have no one to assist her. Anyhow, a few boxes of ice were not a big deal. Every winter Jin Wang Mansion would store a lot of ice for summer and the ice usually wasn’t used up either throughout the season, so might as well take it out to prevent it from becoming wasteful.

Nevertheless, it was unusual. No one would believe that any Mansion was willing to distribute ice for their servants. At most, the masters would put basins of ice in their room, while the servants followed to cool off. As for Mammy Mu, she couldn’t be regarded as a servant. Everyone in Jin Wang Mansion knew it very well in their hearts.

The special treatment of the three wet nurses was thanks to His Highness’s love and affection for the little princess. This was a classic example of chickens and dogs ascending to the heavens by following their master. Even the limelight of Liuchun Pavilion has risen and they also received an unparalleled amount of favour. After all, the small courtyard shared a close relationship with Liuchun Pavilion, at least for appearance’s sake, since the little princess was the daughter of Side Consort Hu.

Mothers depended on their sons and sons depended on their mothers. This matter had always been reciprocal. Although the little princess wasn’t born male, Jin Wang currently only had a daughter.

The other rooms, Rugui, Qixia, and Tingxue Pavilion also heard the news and were so furious that they gritted their teeth. They wished to push Side Consort Hu aside, then give birth to either a son or daughter for Jin Wang and enjoy the same blessing. On the contrary, Siyi Courtyard was very quiet these days, seemingly to fade out of sight overnight.

People in the mansion were aware that the consort was ill. Since that day His Highness departed from Siyi Courtyard, the consort had fallen sick.

This was the first time Jin Wang refused to give the consort face. Although the husband and wife had always been courteous to each other like guests, it was unthinkable of Jin Wang to blatantly humiliate her, all the more on her birthday.

In private, rumours had been circulating. From the way the wind blew, Liuchun Pavilion seemed to be regarded higher. Apparently, it was better to be favoured than to have a high status. Only by being favoured could one bear a child. Just look at Side Consort Hu, who barely entered the door for a little more than a year. She had already given birth to a little princess for His Highness, while the consort had been married to Jin Wang for seven to eight years yet hadn’t been able to give birth to an heir.

Although it was upsetting to admit, the existing conflicts in a family had been constantly related to the heir since the olden days.

Heirs were associated with the future of Jin Wang Mansion. If the consort couldn’t give birth to a son and let others take the lead, then the Mansion’s servants would regard her as someone of no importance in the days to come.

At best, she would be a consort in name only. With the way that Consort Jin and Side Consort Hu were currently fighting, it was unknown whether she would have a good end in the future. It’s not like this type of thing had never happened before. There had been an instance of a qinwang mansion being inherited by a son borne by the side consort. This resulted in the old consort being forced to live in seclusion by the side consort, not daring to even show her face.

Presumably, there was a distinction of stature amongst the common people, but the imperial family wasn’t precisely particular about one’s birth origin.

In Siyi Courtyard, Consort Jin looked as haggard as a dead tree, lying motionlessly in the bed. Mommy Zhou was nowhere to be seen, only Ziyan stayed to wait on her.

Consort Jin laughed ironically, and said to Ziyan, “Look, isn’t it coming.”

Ziyan sighed, “Your Highness… “

“This is how he drives me into a corner! Why? I have stepped back, I have already taken countless steps back, why does he still do that? My father forced me and my mother also forced me! Seems like nothing matters to him yet he forced me! He brought in that kind of woman behind my back, wasn’t it to disgust me? I have to fight against her so she won’t have a chance to look down on me! Haha! In the end, he got what he wanted! His methods are completely ruthless!”

The author has something to say.

Jin Wang: This prince was merely drilling into the little wet nurse’s room at night and couldn’t stand the heat, so this prince looked for something to cool himself off. You, common people, are really good at making things up→.→

Yaoniang: I don’t know anything.
