Jin Wang Dotes on His Concubine

In the Siyi courtyard, after Cuizhu was taken away, Mammy Zhou said to consort Jin: “Niangniang, Cuizhi has been regarded as a thorn in the flesh in the Liuchun Pavilion. She is useless even if you put her there.”

Consort Jin on the chaise bed was reading a book. After hearing this, she looked up at Mammy Zhou and said, “My wet nurse, I don’t think she is useful anymore.”

“So…”

Mammy Zhou soon understood. Apparently, consort Jin wants to cause some trouble on side consort Hu.

But owing to the loss of Cuizhu, it is even harder to suppress the Liuchun Pavilion, which means that all the plans she had made before is in chaos now.

“Don’t forget there is another person.” consort Jin smiled happily.

Under the sunlight, her face is flushed with a kind of malicious beauty. Obviously, she seems too weak to even bear the weight of her clothing. Yet there is a wise temperament that couldn’t be ignored between her eyebrows.

Consort Jin deserves to be born in Xu Duke Mansion. Her mind and means are first-class but she is burdened by her weak body. Whenever she thought of this, Mammy Zhou couldn’t help but sigh.

“Did you mean wet nurse Su?” Madam Zhou hesitated to say.

Consort Jin nodded: “Don’t you think this woman is extremely clever? She hid herself regarding what happened to Cuizhu and quickly established her foothold next to the little princess. She is much smarter than Cuizhu. I looked down on her once before.”

“But it seems that she doesn’t want to put herself under the patronage of any higher-ups. It was said that wet nurse Su is very low-key and never takes a step out of the lateral courtyard. She rarely goes out and either stays in the room or takes care of the little princess.”

“Have you forgotten Wangye? He often goes to visit the little princess.”

Mammy Zhou was still in a daze but consort Jin said again, “Which woman doesn’t like Wangye?” She lowered her eyes with a smile, giving the illusion that she is a most unusual and quite individual beauty.

This is the case. Jin Wang is handsome with high quality, noble with dignity and born with the appearance of the prince. When he was in the imperial capital, many girls were attracted to him but consort Jin married him.

Just–

In fact, Mammy Zhou always has this question she dare not ask: Consort Jin, do you even like Jin Wang?

If she likes Jin Wang, why does she not approach Wangye actively? If she doesn’t like him, why does she go against side consort Hu?

Mammy Zhou dare not ask. She remembered consort Jin almost died before she got married to Jin Wang.

Consort Jin once tried to commit suicide.

Mammy Zhou always thought that consort Jin didn’t want to marry Jin Wang and maybe she was in love with another person. But as the wet nurse of consort Jin, she knew that consort Jin never looked at any man with quite different eyes before getting married.

Mammy Zhou doubted this in her heart for many years and maybe she will hide it for a lifetime.

In Liuchun Pavilion, side consort Hu gloomily watched Cuizhu walk around in front of her.

In fact, Cuizhu’s attitude is very humble. But in side consort Hu’s eyes, she could see the arrogance and sinister intention hidden behind her humble face.

Side consort Hu even saw a face through her, which is the face of consort Jin.

A cold, pale and indifferent face that contains a lot of malice. She could even see consort Jin laugh at her full of disdain and irony.

No matter how you are doted on, you have to be controlled by me. All the favors are fake… Without Wangye, you are nothing…

Side consort Hu could not help but tremble with anxiety in her heart.

It can’t go on like this anymore!

Side consort Hu suddenly stood up.

“Niangniang!”

Taohong screamed anxiously and looked at her in surprise. Apparently she moved too suddenly, which caused Taohong to misunderstand something.

Side consort Hu looked at Taohong’s eyes and was even angrier (more upset). Is she such an irrational person?

She didn’t explain anything but took a deep breath and said, “I’ll go see the little princess.”

Taohong was relieved.

The Liuchun Pavilion can’t bear anything else right now.

In the east room, Mammy Mu was sitting on a Padauk Arhat bed inlaid with turquoise jades and landscape painting. Side consort Hu was sitting opposite her.

Yuyan brought two cups of tea and placed them on the table, side consort Hu just held it but did not drink. It could be seen that side consort Hu has not slept well in the past few days because there are dark circles under her beautiful phoenix eyes.

Side consort Hu was about to speak but said nothing. Mammy Mu was drinking tea and it seemed that she didn’t care why side consort Hu showed up.

After all, side consort Hu couldn’t hold back her composure. She hesitated for a while and spoke of her intention: “Well, Mammy. I’ve missed the little princess. Could I bring the little princess to Liuchun Pavilion for one night?”

Unlike her arrogance when she face consort Jin, she is very humble in front of Mammy Mu.

Side consort Hu is not stupid. She knows who Mammy Mu stands for and her identity— the Mammy next to former consort De. After consort De died, she had been serving beside Jin Wang. Jin Wang respects her very much and treats her as an elder.

These are enough for side consort Hu to respect Mammy Mu.

Unlike consort Jin, Mammy Mu is Jin Wang’s direct servant.

Jin Wang didn’t appear in this chapter. But I have to do this because the contents of this chapter are connected closely with how the plots flow, including promoting the relationship between the two leading roles.

The following contents will concentrate on below: relationship of the two leading roles; whether the little princess is Jin Wang’s own child or not; side consort Hu and consort Jin’s hidden intentions; when will Jin Wang know he also has a son; will Yaoniang know that something happened between Jin Wang and her?

All of the above will be figured out in the following chapters. Stay tuned!
