CH 71

Chapter 71 – Yu-shi

An’er was introverted and timid. She buried her face in Yu-shi’s chest and refused to make a sound.

Ever since she could remember, her mother has not liked her very much. This was especially so after she got a younger brother. Her younger brother’s health was even worse than hers, and her mother would guard by her younger brother’s bedside day and night. It was only later, after her younger brother was no longer here that her mother slowly became a little better to her…

Yu-shi was secretly anxious in her heart. She felt that this daughter of hers was really useless, and she did not inherit her cleverness at all. Her child really cut a sorry figure cowering and cringing like this. No dignity at all. Alas… she was really not as lovable as that slow-witted Song-shi’s daughter Kang’er.

After hearing Yu Qin’s words, Lin Jia Bao knew that this woman was also one of His Royal Highness’s concubines. His curiosity was immediately piqued, and he stuck his head out from behind Xuan Yuan Han Cheng to see.

Yu-shi finally got a good look at the rumored appearance of Lin-xiaoshi. She secretly compared him to herself, and after careful observation for a long time, she came to the conclusion that this ger wasn’t that good looking. It was very different from what she had heard in the rumors. He also didn’t seem to be that outstanding or shrewd of an opponent… His appearance could only be considered to be above average, nowhere near the level of a stunning beauty. She supposed that His Royal Highness must only find him intriguing because he was new to the harem…

In any case, she was a woman who has given birth to two children for His Royal Highness, so she deserved more credit than Xu Xue Ying. Yu Qin did not feel much threat from this little ger xiaoshi who had only been favored by His Royal Highness for a few months.

Yu Qin glanced at Lin Jia Bao with some contempt in her eyes, and then she said with a smile: “This must be the newcomer from our East Palace. I haven’t seen you before…”

Xuan Yuan Han Cheng introduced her to Lin Jia Bao: “This is Yu-shi. This is An’er, she is my second daughter.”

After Lin Jia Bao obediently greeted the two of them, he returned to Xuan Yuan Han Cheng’s side. He didn’t know how to face Xuan Yuan Han Cheng’s concubine and daughter…

“Haha… we are all people who serve His Royal Highness, so we don’t have to be so polite to each other…” Yu-shi laughed when she saw Lin Jia Bao taking the initiative to greet her.

“All right. I will find time to visit An’er, so you people can go back first. Where is An’er’s nanny? Why don’t I see her?” Xuan Yuan Han Cheng asked.

“An’er’s nanny is not feeling too well today… so I let her rest for two days.” Yu-shi replied.

“If the nanny is no good then change her. Don’t let me find you bringing the child around by yourself out in the wind and chill! Hurry up and bring An’er back. Have the imperial physician come examine her and prescribe some tisane to prevent a cold…” Xuan Yuan Han Cheng said very sternly.

The wind speed and chill factor today was nothing to sneeze at. An’er’s health was worse than Kang’er’s health. She was extremely susceptible to chilly winds. And she didn’t have a nanny by her side to watch over her and help her wear extra layers.

Yu-shi was only concerned with soliciting favor from him, and she went as far as to disregard her daughter’s health to drag her outside. He reckoned that she was afraid that he would punish her, so she dragged her daughter out as an excuse. Truly abominable…

Xuan Yuan Han Cheng looked at Lin Jia Bao, who was leaning against him. His darling was still the best. After living through his past and present lives, he has long seen through the true colors of these women. Fortunately, he was able to have his darling accompany him in this lifetime…

“Understood.” Yu Qin did not dare to say anything else after hearing His Royal Highness’s stern tone.

Xuan Yuan Han Cheng took Lin Jia Bao’s hand and personally helped him onto the carriage. Then he climbed in by himself.

Yuan Fu and Yuan Qing slowly steered the carriage away. Four imperial bodyguards followed behind. They all looked forward without glancing sideways.

Yu-shi was left behind to watch the departing carriage with extreme anger, and feeling unreconciled.

Inside the carriage, Lin Jia Bao leaned on Xuan Yuan Han Cheng’s shoulder and asked, “Should I meet with all the concubines in the harem?”

Xuan Yuan Han Cheng held Lin Jia Bao’s hand and said, “There are only two in total. Darling, if you want to meet them, then you can meet them. Husband will arrange for it. Baby, you just have to remember, they will not have any influence on us.”

“En… I will listen to Husband.”

Lin Jia Bao nodded. He had decided to trust Xuan Yuan Han Cheng, but it was inevitable that he would feel a little inadequate and inferior when he saw the other women in the harem. However, Xuan Yuan Han Cheng’s attitude and actions toward him gradually calmed his uneasy heart.

“So good… You are Husband’s darling treasure… I, Xuan Yuan Han Cheng, swear that I will never let you down in this lifetime…” Xuan Yuan Han Cheng said as he kissed his darling’s tender and beautiful lips. He drew Lin Jia Bao’s lower lip into his mouth and sucked hard.

A delicate moan overflowed from Lin Jia Bao’s mouth. His lips parted slightly and Xuan Yuan Han Cheng delved in to explore. He licked the boy’s pearly white teeth and intertwined their tongues together. Lin Jia Bao mimicked Xuan Yuan Han Cheng’s movements and took the initiative to respond.

After a long time, their passionate make out session ended, and all that was left inside the carriage was the sound of two people’s heavy breathing. Still wishing to continue, Xuan Yuan Han Cheng said, “What a troublesome tease my little darling is…”

Lin Jia Bao looked up at Xuan Yuan Han Cheng’s words. When their gazes met, a bright red blush erupted across Lin Jia Bao’s face, and he looked away in embarrassment.

“Husband, can I look outside?”

“Of course you can…” Xuan Yuan Han Cheng stroked the top of his darling’s head with a smile.

Lin Jia Bao lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out of the carriage. “I’ve never strolled through the streets before.”

Lin Jia Bao remembered that when he was young, he would clamor for his mother to take him out. But every time his mother took him out, people would always point and gossip about him. When he understood the reason for it, he never asked to go out again. Fortunately, there were many brothers and sisters at home, and they were very friendly to him, so he did not feel lonely.

“I will take you out often in the future…” Xuan Yuan Han Cheng felt a little distressed when he heard this. He could imagine how his darling’s childhood was like.

“You don’t have to do it often… Husband is very busy…”

Lin Jia Bao was very happy when he heard his husband say this, but he didn’t have the desire to go out of the palace that often.
