Just with two older brothers, the little baby is already spoiled rotten. If three more co along, won’t they spoil him to the skies? He better keep an eye on himself in the future.
"Today he took out his ribbon again."
"Ribbon?"
An Jiuyue was taken aback, almost not realizing what ribbon it was. It took her a while to rember.
"Why did he take it out again?"
She had forgotten that her son had such a ribbon in his hand. Why did he suddenly think of taking it out again? Did he forget he’s a boy?
"Didn’t you put that ribbon away?" She rubbed her forehead.
If people outside saw their child playing with a ribbon, would they still have any face left?
The secret guards saw it, the people at the prefectural office saw it too? My God, was this son born just to oppose them? She had already told him, he wasn’t allowed to take it out, yet he did anyway.
Without thinking, she knew that little baby wanted to show off his ribbon.
"It’s only that little thing who thinks his ribbon looks good!" she said through gritted teeth, thinking that playing with it at Wulong Mountain was fine since everyone saw it.
But in the Daqing Kingdom, to still take it out is really...
"Let him play, he’ll grow out of it eventually," Qian Jiyun said with a smile.
An Jiuyue: "..."
This is even more treacherous than the little baby.
When the little baby grows up, understands beauty and ugliness, if people around him still rember that he used to show off a ribbon that only girls play with, would he want to find a hole to crawl into?
"I’ve decided. When we get back to the capital, I’m going to make my Treasure a set of clothes to match that ribbon," she said.
Qian Jiyun: "!!!"
When their son grows up, he might cry himself to death?
"You could paint more portraits of him as a child," he suggested.
"That’s an idea!"
An Jiuyue gave him a thumbs up, planning to show all the portraits to the little baby when he grows up, filling an entire room, not allowing them to be thrown away!
"There’s nothing much going on now, let’s go for a walk outside."
"Okay."
Qian Jiyun stood up, took her hand, and they left the prefectural office together.
...
Six days later, Gong Jian rushed to Ying City on horseback.
Upon entering the city, he saw that the streets of Ying City were deserted, with no one selling anything; it was desolate. Frowning, he thought no other towns he passed through were like Ying City.
He was the only one coming today, having traveled overnight, so none of Ying City’s officials were notified, and no one ca to welco him.
After showing his identity at the city gate and watching the soldiers rush to report, he wasn’t impatient. He entered the city alone, riding slowly towards the prefectural office, as his guard squad had yet to arrive in Ying City; he traveled day and night to get here.
"Has Ying City truly been made so desolate by the Fifteenth Prince and his mother?"
Taking a deep breath, he continuously scanned both sides of the street. In any case, there were few people on the streets, and even those present passed by hastily without any intention to linger.
"Let’s first go to the governnt office to find Prince Zhan and Prince An Yang."
Everything else can wait. He needs to et with the two princes to understand what really happened in Ying City.
...
At the governnt entrance, it was crowded with people.
Many residents of Ying City had co here because today, the evidence against Dowager Consort Yu and her son had been organized and presented.
