Chapter 493 - 493 Have Another Child (1)
493 Have Another Child (1)
“Who…” Are you? This question had been on the Prince Consort’s mind since the moment he saw Xiaobao. They were both from the Helian family and looked so similar. Who would believe that they were not father and son?
Yan Jiuchao and Xiaobao’s interactions just now confirmed this guess. But Xiaobao was his child. What about him? Whose child was he? The Prince Consort looked at Yan Jiuchao in a daze, but before he could finish speaking, a delicate figure pounced on him like a swallow. “Father!”
The Little Commandery Princess threw herself into the Prince Consort’s arms and hugged his arm for a long time. “Father, you’re too much! You didn’t even bring Xi’er along when you came out. Xi’er is about to suffocate to death in the manor!”
The Prince Consort looked at the Little Commandery Princess who suddenly rushed out and then at the cold Yan Jiuchao in front of him. For some reason, he suddenly felt helpless.
Yan Jiuchao glanced at the Little Commandery Princess coldly and pulled Xiaobao away.
“Stop!” The Little Commandery Princess stopped him. She let go of the Prince Consort’s arm and walked around to him. She sized him up. “I was wondering why you looked so familiar. So it’s you! Why are you here?”
“What does it have to do with you?” Yan Jiuchao asked coldly.
The Little Commandery Princess was so angry that she fell back. Who was this fellow? Why did he sound exactly the same as that peasant woman from the countryside? Wait, he even held… a little black child?
The Little Commandery Princess’ gaze landed on Xiaobao’s face. Xiaobao turned around and buried his little face in his stinky father’s thigh, giving her a big fat rejection!
The Little Commandery Princess held her breath. If she didn’t misunderstand, this little black child… was despising her?! She was the princess of a country, but she was actually despised by a little black egg?!
“You, you…” The Little Commandery Princess was about to flare up, but Yan Jiuchao couldn’t be bothered with her. He picked up the little brat hanging on his lap and left without looking back.
“Father! Look!” The Little Commandery Princess stomped her feet in anger, hoping that her father could help her regain her dignity. Although she was a princess, she did not really dare to cause trouble outside. Otherwise, if word got back to her mother, she would definitely be severely punished. But it would be different if her father took action, her mother would never be angry with her father.
However, she was disappointed. The Prince Consort, who had always doted on her, did not find trouble with Yan Jiuchao for her.
“Alright, stop fooling around and go back,” the Prince Consort said tiredly.
The Little Commandery Princess looked at her father in disbelief. In the past, when such a situation happened, if she was in the right, her father would stand up for her. If she was unreasonable, her father would not question her at all and would only comfort her. But what did her father say just now? Fooling around? Was her father blaming her?
Why?!
“Father…” The Little Commandery Princess felt stifled, but when she met the Prince Consort’s disappointed gaze, she could not say a word.
The Prince Consort brought the Little Commandery Princess into the carriage. The Little Commandery Princess felt wronged and did not say anything along the way. The Prince Consort did not coax her like before, so the Little Commandery Princess felt even more aggrieved.
As she approached the manor, she finally couldn’t take it anymore. “Father, why were you with that person just now? Also, why do you have a portrait of him?”
The answer was simple, but somehow the Prince Consort did not want to say it.
“I know!” The Little Commandery Princess’ eyes lit up and she hugged the Prince Consort’s arm. “Did you know that he and the Helian family bullied me? You’re investigating him! Did you already teach him a lesson just now? That’s why you don’t allow me to interfere!”
The Prince Consort opened his mouth but hesitated. In the end, he patted her shoulder. “…Let’s go back.”
When the father and daughter returned to the manor, the Queen personally cooked a large table of good dishes. This was not common. After all, she was the Queen and was busy every day. Her hand was used to control the world and strategize, not to cook. And it was precisely because of this that everything she did seemed even more precious.
“Mother, what day is it today?” The Little Commandery Princess said with a smile.
It was because she felt that the Prince Consort did not like to bother with her recently. The Queen glanced at the Prince Consort without batting an eyelid and said gently, “Cong’er is coming back.”
Before the Prince Consort could answer, the Little Commandery Princess widened her almond-shaped eyes. “Is Big Brother coming back?”
The Queen looked at her and nodded dotingly. “That’s right.” She then said to the Prince Consort, “Cong’er sent a letter saying that he’s already on his way back to the Capital. He’ll arrive at the end of next month at the latest.”
“Ah, there’s still more than a month!” The Little Commandery Princess was instantly disappointed.
The Prince Consort was in a daze.
