Chapter 220: Concubine Fang of Prince Lie's Mansion
King Zhao kept the fact that he took the child away to raise him a secret. Except for the people in the front yard and the people in her yard, no one else knew about it.
At least even the concubines He and Ji Er who often visited the house were not aware of it, and the neighbor concubine Cen was also not aware of it.
Ji Yunqing said to everyone... but there was no need to tell anyone, it was normal not to take the child out because he was too young.
So, how did Concubine Fang know?
Is there a traitor in Prince Zhao's palace?
so……
Ji Yunqing looked strange: "As a concubine of Prince Lie's mansion, it's not appropriate for you to inquire about other men's affairs, right?"
Are you guys having an affair?
Concubine Fang's expression froze.
How did the topic turn to this direction?
Shouldn't she just continue talking and then slowly create psychological pressure on the other party?
She squeezed out five words from between her teeth: "Ji Shufei, be careful with your words!"
Ji Yunqing said as a matter of course: "Of course I'm not talking nonsense. Under normal circumstances, who would know other people's family affairs?"
She even gave an example: "Like me, would I know when King Lie goes to bed?"
Well-reasoned and convincing
Concubine Fang was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Isn't it a consensus that this kind of thing can be figured out by bribing servants or placing talents?
Besides, who knows when men go to bed?
There's something wrong with your brain!
She didn't think about what he said, she simply ignored it and continued, "Among the four young masters, I think the prince likes the fourth young master the most. Concubine Ji is so lucky."
Ji Yunqing raised her chin slightly, with a proud look on her face: "Of course I am very lucky"
"I just don't know how long this good fortune can last!" At this point, Concubine Fang shook her head and sighed.
But the other party was heartless: "It's as long as it can be maintained for a while!"
Concubine Fang: "...Hmm? Concubine Ji is quite open-minded."
Ji Yunqing smiled and said, "I know that the prince may not love my son in the future. After all, Concubine Qian in the mansion has a child now.
When the child is born in the future, he will be cute, and maybe the prince will like that child, or if he has other children, the prince will like those children too."
Concubine Fang didn't understand: "Aren't you nervous? If the prince only had these children, maybe he would always like the fourth prince."
"Oh, that won't work"
Ji Yunqing shook his head: "How tragic, children are unstable. It's okay to like him now, but if he continues to like him in the future, naturally, I will have higher expectations for him.
If you don’t study well, you will be beaten. If you do something wrong, you will be beaten. You will be disciplined no matter what you do. There are always people watching you. This is too uncomfortable.”
"So, we still need a few little brothers to share the pressure (of getting beaten) with him."
Concubine Fang was unwilling to accept the result: "That's true, but there is only one child who will inherit the family business in the future, don't you want to..."
"It's nothing. We can talk about the future later. I don't have this worry now."
Ji Yunqing had an expression that said, "Just give up and live however you can."
Concubine Fang couldn't believe it. How could there be someone in this world who was so indifferent to fame and fortune?
"But...but...but you yourself——"
But she was interrupted by the other party: "Concubine Fang, is this the question you want to ask me? It's not necessary, right?"
Why is it not necessary?
Concubine Fang subconsciously wanted to ask.
But the next thing he said was, "You don't have any children, why are you thinking so much? Aren't you just asking for trouble?"
Concubine Fang: “…”
I can’t ask any further. I really can’t ask any further.
She took a deep breath, her face grim, but she finally forced herself to hold it in.
Not angry, she is not angry.
"I am doing this for the sake of you and the Fourth Young Master. Concubine Ji, it is really unnecessary for you to say this, right?"
In response to her, Ji Yunqing gave her an even weirder look: "By the way, why are you so concerned about me and the child? You don't want to be the child's godmother, do you?"
Ji Yunqing refused outright: "No way!"
"I didn't..."
Concubine Fang thought of something and changed her words: "Why not? If the prince knew that I became the godmother of the fourth prince, he would definitely be happy."
What's more, with this relationship, I will have a legitimate excuse to come to Prince Zhao's Mansion next time.
Thinking of this, Concubine Fang nodded impatiently: "Yes, I just want to be the child's godmother!"
Ji Yunqing refused again: "I've already said it, this is not possible!"
"Why not? Is it that you, Concubine Ji, look down on Prince Lie's Mansion? Or is it that I am humiliating the child by being the Fourth Young Master's godmother?"
If Ji Yunqing says anything, Concubine Fang can use it as an excuse to make a fuss. Then...
Concubine Fang's eyes were rolling around and inspiration was popping out.
"It's nothing else, it's mainly for your consideration, Concubine Fang."
Ji Yunqing advised sincerely: "You don't have a child yet. If you let the Fourth Young Master take your place as a child, what if you can't have children in the future and turn around and blame my child?"
After all this, Ji Yunqing sighed, his tone very helpless: "If you can give birth to ten or eight children, I won't have to worry."
"Moreover"
Ji Yunqing looked at Concubine Fang's figure critically: "You don't know that being a godmother means you have to share luck with the child. Your luck... Tsk!"
Concubine Fang clenched her fists and was furious.
Children, children, and children again!
She will go back to be... in the future, how can she be willing to give birth to a bastard of the Great Xia Dynasty here!
She tried to control her anger in her tone: "Concubine Ji, I was speaking to you with good intentions, why are you like this?"
"I'm just reminding you with good intentions. Why are you like this? You have such a bad temper." Ji Yunqing muttered softly, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave first!"
"and many more"
Seeing that the person was about to leave, Concubine Fang suddenly woke up and finally remembered the purpose of today.
She was startled and recalled the entire conversation between them.
Almost from the beginning, the topic was led by the seemingly incoherent Concubine Ji. Even she herself, who was able to become a concubine, was unknowingly led astray by the other party.
Her back was covered in sweat.
Based on the information sent by spies in the past, I thought this was a very simple mission, but I didn’t expect Concubine Ji to hide so deeply!
If she hadn't contacted me personally this time, I wouldn't know when I would have been played around by her.
Thinking of this, Concubine Fang's eyes became much more cautious, and there was fear in her eyes when she looked at Ji Yunqing again.
Things have changed, and she can no longer follow her previous plan, but she can...
Based on the fragmentary information received from the spies, Plan 2 was initiated.
According to the spy's observation, this woman was very enthusiastic with the pretty women in Prince Zhao's mansion. Thinking of this, looking at Ji Yunqing's back as she was about to leave, Concubine Fang called out softly:
"My younger sister, the concubine..."
As he shouted, he loosened the side straps of his clothes.
