Jin Wang Dotes on His Concubine

While these women, who had recently entered the mansion, spent all their time and effort coming up with ways to receive favour, Jin Wang learned to be like those hooligans sneaking into boudoirs at night.
But to the outside world, His Highness Jin Wang was not fascinated by the female sex. Side Consort Huâs unparalleled momentum was still the same as before.
In the past few days, Liuchun Pavilion has been particularly lively. Side Consort Hu was paid respect by the women one after another. Except for Side Consort Liu, all the new concubines were there, including Xu Yueru.
At first, Side Consort Hu didnât give Xu Yueru a good face, but for whatever reason Xu Yueru seemed to match her taste. After a few visits, the two of them even talked very happily.
The people of the small courtyard couldnât keep up with the drama, there were new topics every day.
On this day, Side Consort Xu came to visit the little princess.
This was the first time she came to visit the little princess, and she was accompanied by Side Consort Hu. The two came to the small courtyard and saw the white and chubby little princess. Side Consort Xu spewed pretty words from her mouth one after another and made Side Consort laugh again and again.
âElder sister is really blessed. If I can also give birth to a little princess for His Highness one day, Iâll be content for the rest of my life.â
Side Consort Hu thought to herself: Pfft someone like you? But out of her lips came hypocritical friendliness. âYounger sister is fortunate. You can probably even give birth to a son for His Highness.â
Side Consort Xu also likes to hear these words. Holding back the urge to lift her eyebrows out of conceit, she said reservedly, âGiving birth to a girl or a boy is predestined by the heavens. Itâs not up to us to choose but our fortune.â
She wanted to humble herself and express that she had no desire to have a son. Even if she does have that thought in her heart, she would never admit it to Side Consort Hu. Otherwise, how could she have the opportunity to approach His Highness? But who knew that she would be misunderstood by Side Consort Hu.
Side Consort Hu misunderstood what she meant. She thought that Xu Yueru meant that she was not fortunate enough and so gave birth to a small princess!
This has always been a source of pain in Side Consort Huâs heart. If she gave birth to a body in one fell swoop, then there would be no place for these women. But she had to give birth to a daughter.
There was no way for Side Consort Hu to change her face because of a single sentence. Side Consort Xu was still useful to her, but she didnât feel comfortable in her heart. Her glance fell on Yaoniang, who had her head lowered sitting to the side. âNanny Su, why havenât you changed the diaper for the little princess? Whatâs the point of having you all? If the little princessâs buttocks turn red, and His Highness finds out, who knows how he will deal with you all.â Her words were to show how important the little princess is to Jin Wang.
Yaoniang was tossed around for most of last night. She was released only after she begged her âgood brotherâ for a long time. When Side Consort Hu came, she found a corner to hide, but who knew that she could doze off while standing. Hearing Side Consort Huâs words, a woman named Ji Ling hurried over to open the diaper of the little princess, only to find that the princess had not peed at all. It was Side Consort Hu using her for her usual tricks again.
Looking at the jealous and envious Side Consort Xu, Yaoniang sighed in her heart and took out a clean diaper for the little princess to put on.
However, the little princess has grown naughtier now that she is older. She didnât want to lie down, but to sit up. Yaoniang changed her to this position, but the little girl became interested in Yaoniangâs hair. She reached out and grabbed a handful.
Yaoniang snorted, and gingerly tried to pry away the little hand, trying to get her hair back. Side Consort Hu was unhappy and said, âIf the little princess wants to grab it, just let her!â
Yaoniang had no choice but to endure the pain. She lowered her neck and bent at the waist to change the little princessâs diaper.
When Jin Wang came in, he saw this scene. He frowned and wanted to say something, but he saw two women standing beside him.
Side Consort Xuâs eyes were sharp. When a figure came in, she hurriedly turned her head to look.
âYour Highness!â
Side Consort Hu naturally followed, feeling regretful for bringing Side Consort Xu over. To be honest, even she did not expect Jin Wang to come at this time. Otherwise, she would never do such a stupid thing.
âYour Highness.â She came over with an ingratiating smile and bent at her knees to salute.
Jin Wang had a cold expression on his face. He did not speak but looked at the cheerful little princess who was sitting on the bed and pulling on Yaoniangâs hair.
Fucheng naturally saw that scene too. He smiled and hurriedly stepped forward. âHow can this be done? It wonât be good for someone to get injured and for the little princessâs hand to get hurt. Someone! Come over and loosen the princessâs hand!â
In fact, Yuyan had planned to do that a long time ago but was interrupted by Jin Wangâs sudden arrival. Hearing this, she hurried over to help Yaoniang get her hair out of the little princessâs hands. She pushed the princess gently to the side and Yaoniang went to the side to rearrange her messy hair.
Side Consort Hu ended up bringing contempt on herself and felt very aggrieved.
Her words to let the little princess grab her hair had just left her mouth when Fucheng rebutted her words by saying that it wouldnât be good for someone to get injured. Yet before she could explain anything, she felt Jin Wangâs cold eyes fall on her. He snorted coldly, turned his head and left.
âYour Highnessââ Side Consort Hu hurried out.
Side Consort Xu stood there. It was unknown what was on her mind as she followed.
But when she came out, she didnât see Jin Wang at all. She only saw a furious Side Consort Hu standing in the yard.
âSister Hu, whereâs His Highness?â
Seeing Side Consort Xu come over, Side Consort Hu quickly put away the expression on her face. She said with a smile, âHis Highness still has official duties to do. He had come over to take a look at the little princess. Once he saw her, naturally, he would leave.â
Side Consort Xu nodded. For some reason, she suddenly asked, âSister Hu, the one surnamed Su is a wet nurse?â
Side Consort Hu nodded impatiently. She was so upset at this moment that she didnât want to bother with this person.
But Side Consort Xu gave a weird smile, and said, âNo matter how I look at her, she doesnât seem like a wet nurse. Putting a wet nurse like her next to the little princess, sister, you are very tolerant.â
At first, Side Consort Hu didnât understand her meaning. Once she got it, she was annoyed and looked at the other woman impatiently. âThis person wasnât someone that I arranged for. It was your good sister who put her next to the little princess.â
Speaking of Consort Jin, Side Consort Xu restrained herself and asked as if she couldnât care less, âThe consort?â
Side Consort Hu sneered and nodded.
Side Consort Xu glanced at Side Consort Hu. She seemed to hesitate, then said, âIf it were her, Sister Hu would have to be careful. As her sister, I know her the best. She would never do useless things. Before she had married, she was proficient in qin, calligraphy, painting, and chess, but she was the best at chess. The thing with chess is that one must anticipate their enemyâs attack early on. After taking one step, one would need to calculate the next dozens of steps. You must stay cautious of her.â
