Chapter 198: The Legendary Fox Spirit
y would still be driven out of the house.Every time he was driven back to the village, his uncle would torture him in even crueler ways. The villagers would say, "Look, this is the mongrel of barbaria...The maid was so frightened that she knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly. In a moment, her forehead was bleeding profusely. The maid ignored the pain and cried out: "Forgive me, Your Highness! Forgive me, Your Highness! It was Little Manager Mu He who said it, not this servant making things up. Little Manager Mu He said that the young master newly adopted by the King, although an adopted son, is hated because the King favors him so much. Perhaps he intends to raise him as a true successor."
"Foster son..." Xiao Changyue clutched the brocade quilt, her knuckles turning white. The corner of the brocade quilt was completely twisted out of shape. After a long while, she gritted her teeth and said: "Get this Princess's clothes! I want to see what kind of child is so important that the King treats him with such regard! And tell Gui Momo to come along too!"
The maid quickly agreed and hurriedly went to the cabinet to get some clothes.
In the master bedroom of Wuxuan Wangfu, Fu Zimo gazed longingly at the two wet nurses feeding the baby. After they finished, they immediately took the baby and held him in their arms.
The wet nurse soon retreated, and the child, having eaten and drunk his fill, fell asleep in his arms. Feeling the child breathing with the scent of milk, Fu Zimu didn't even notice that a smile had been playing on his lips the whole time.
He wasn't related to the child at all, yet in just a short while, he had become accustomed to having him in his arms.
After Jin Mu and the other wet nurses left, he walked in. Seeing Fu Zi Mo holding the child and sitting by the bed smiling foolishly, his facial muscles still twitched involuntarily, "Your Highness, it's late at night, why don't you send the child to Wu Shi's place, so you can rest too."
"Why send it there Isn't Wu already asleep" Fu Zi Mo raised his head in puzzlement.
Jin Mu suddenly had an urge to cry. Where was their wise, brave and decisive prince Who was this unbelievable man in front of him!
"Your Highness, the newborn baby nurses very frequently, wanting to eat again after just a while. Sending him to Lady Wu's place would mean he can be fed conveniently whenever he wants, wouldn't it Most importantly, Your Highness, don't you want to rest and perhaps sleep with the child"
Who knew that Fu Zi Mo's next words would completely leave Jin Mu speechless. He said, "When he is hungry, this King will naturally call the nurse to feed him."
"Well... alright, Your Highness, you win! " Jin Mu's throat tightened, and he wouldn't utter another word to disturb this overly affectionate display of Wu Xuan Wang as a father.
However, Jinmu's words did remind Fu Zimo that it was indeed getting late. So he prepared to take off his shoes and socks and go to bed.
"My Lord, I heard you adopted a son. I came to see him, and I also want to see this adorable child." Xiao Changyue's voice reached them before she did. Although she had tried her best to conceal the jealousy and displeasure in her heart, her tone still sounded high-pitched and awkward.
Fu Zi Mo's brows furrowed, feeling the child in his arms move. Especially when he saw the child's eyelids lift, thankfully, he only glanced around in a daze before falling asleep again.
However, even such an action had caused Fu Zi Mo's murderous aura to erupt completely. When he looked up at the doorway again, his eyes were as sharp and piercing as ice shards on a winter day.
As soon as Xiao Changyue's foot crossed the threshold, she met Fu Zimu's gaze and instinctively retracted her foot. She said with grievance, "Your Highness, you…"
"Shut up!" Fu Zimo suppressed his voice as much as he could, then walked to the door and with a wave of his hand pushed Xiao Changyue out. Xiao Changyue stumbled and fell to the ground.
Guimomo, who was following Xiao Changyue, quickly went to help her up. She squatted beside Xiao Changyue and said to Fu Zimu: "Your Highness, how could you treat your wife like this!"
"Get out! There's no place for a servant like you to speak here!" Fu Zimu said to her in a small, but cold voice. "Go back! You woke up my adopted son, and I want you to see what happens."
Then, Fu ZiMo disregarded Xiao Chang Yue and Gui MoMo's heartbroken expressions and directly closed the door.
"Your Highness, how about we go back first We can come again tomorrow to see which vixen has bewitched the King's heart! Rest assured, with me here, Gu Meimo, I won't let those shameless vixens get away with it!" Gu Meimo was also filled with resentment. In all these years, this was the first time the King had spoken to her so harshly! Of course, it was all that vixen's fault!
Xiao Changyue didn't respond to Gui Momo's words, she just glared resentfully at the tightly shut door.
Night, icy cold, yet Xiao Changyue's body suddenly became several degrees colder than the night. Her hand pressed against the ground, her fingernails embedded in the soil, causing her delicate nails to instantly lose their original color.
This night, some families rejoiced while others sorrowed.
In the spacious room, the curtains on the bed were drawn. Behind the curtains, no one knew that Qin Luo'yan's eyes were wide open. From beginning to end, she had never truly slept. It was just that her gaze was too scattered and her expression too melancholic. Her child, from birth, she, as a mother, had not even had the chance to hold him personally.
She lay awake all night, staring at the curtain. It seemed like an eternity as she just sat there, watching it.
Everyone in the palace was speculating about what kind of woman could have captured the attention of the Prince, to the point where even their child was treated like the most precious treasure.
So the next morning, quite a few maids and servants “happened to pass by” the gate of the courtyard. It seemed everyone wanted to catch a glimpse of the woman's true face.
However, Qin Luoyan's door remained closed. There was no chance they could easily see her.
However, the two elderly women who were keeping watch in the room had this opportunity. The two of them drew hot water early in the morning to prepare for Qin Luoyan's washing and dressing, and took the chance to take a look at what the legendary woman looked like.
However, when the curtain was lifted, both of them were taken aback by the woman's face on the bed. This woman, with an ordinary appearance, bore no resemblance to the imagined beauty and grace they had expected. Although her figure was not bad, such a plain face was inferior even to many maidservants in the manor. Could someone so unremarkable truly have captured the Lord's favor
Every woman the Lord had ever known was a vision of beauty. Even that Qin maid who warmed his bed once was as beautiful as a fox!
The two elderly women were very surprised until Qin Luoyan opened her eyes and looked at them, then they came to their senses.
Qin Luoyan's eyes were a bit red, and her dark circles were even more obvious. She didn't need to look to know how unsightly she looked now, so she immediately saw what the two old ladies were thinking. However, she was too lazy to explain it to them.
The two elderly ladies were indeed experienced. They quickly put aside their surprise and efficiently helped Qin Luoyan wash up.
As soon as the two of them stepped out of their room with their toiletries, they were surrounded by several curious maids. The maids buzzed around them, asking, "Mama, was the madam very beautiful Was she even prettier than Miss Xiaoying"
