Chapter 197: The Young Miss in the Wang Manor
n Luoyan didn't turn her head or look at his expression, but she felt he definitely didn't want her to have this child. After all, what was his status as King Wǔxuān, and what was hers In his eyes, sh...In the back courtyard of the Prince's Mansion, a spacious and airy courtyard was tidied up at the fastest speed by maidservants and servants. According to the head steward, this time the Prince had personally brought someone back, who was the Prince's newly adopted son. Although he was an adopted son, he was still the Prince's first legitimate child in name, and even more importantly, the Prince himself had returned to the mansion to pick up the child. This showed how important the child was to the Prince.
Many people whispered behind closed doors, speculating that this child might truly be the long-lost son of the King. After all, the reclusive King had never shown favor to anyone, let alone a newborn babe. No one would genuinely believe that the King's unusual action was inspired by seeing a new baby.
Rumors abound, but there's always a reason behind them. So although no one in the palace openly spoke about it, they all secretly viewed the child they had never met as the true heir to the throne.
Especially, when seeing the prince personally carrying a woman off the carriage and into the courtyard of the backyard, this further confirmed everyone's suspicions.
Along the way, Qin Luoyan closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, but she could clearly feel the probing gazes from those around her. Fu Zimu, a man, perhaps wouldn't understand what they were thinking, but Qin Luoyan could guess it.
Once, when she entered the mansion as Fu Zimu's true woman, she was looked down upon by maidservants and servants. Now, as the mother of Fu Zimu's adopted son, she felt a deep respect from these people in their bones.
This is the most pathetic class concept in this society. In their eyes, they divide people into three, six, and nine levels. What category of person you are determines your entire life; no matter what you do, you can't change their thoughts.
Fu Zi Mo sent Qin Luo Yan to the bed in the room and called for two capable old maidservants to attend her bedside, then he couldn't wait to turn and leave.
Jin Mu saw him rushing out in a flurry, still puzzled and unaware. Before he could react, Fu Zi Mo snatched the child from his hands.
Jin Mu twitched the corner of his mouth, feeling a little pathetic in his heart. Your Highness, your actions and expressions clearly show that you think the young master was wronged here. Heaven knows that every movement he made since just now was careful, almost as if he were holding the young master in his arms. But this also made Jin Mu more certain of one thing: from now on, no matter how big or small, everything related to the young master must be treated as a top priority!
The wet nurse was soon found, led to Fu Zi Mo's room by an elderly matron. The matron was also puzzled in her heart. Although he was a foster son, shouldn't a newborn baby be staying with his mother What did the King do by staying alone in the room
"How come there are only so few people" Fu Zimo sat on the bed, holding the child, and looked coldly at the row of wet nurses of different ages and appearances in the room.
"When the old nanny heard this, she immediately knelt down and apologized, "My Lord, there are quite a few of them. These ten or so wet nurses were found by the slaves all night long. We've invited all the wet nurses and maids in Phoenix Nest City." A child alone can only consume so much milk; these ten or so wet nurses would be more than enough.
The old woman was kowtowing on the ground, but Fu Zimo's face didn't ease at all. He stood up, holding the child and walked to the row of wet nurses. Starting from the first one, Fu Zimo was very dissatisfied.
"Looking this ugly, what if the King's adopted son grew up ugly after drinking her milk What should we do Get down!" Fu Zimo's disdainful and ruthless words directly scared the wet nurse into tears.
"And this one, at your age, your milk isn't fresh either! Get out!" Fu Zi Mo came before the second wet nurse. The wet nurse’s heart was also crumbling, what did her age and whether her milk was fresh or not have to do with anything This prince really was as cruel as the rumors said.
"This is also a problem. You still have rashes on your face. What if you infect my adopted son"
"That one over there, with a face bigger than a mooncake, blocking the vision of this king's son, who is responsible"
"And this, his skin is so dark, how will I explain to my adopted son when he sees him at night"
Fu Zi Mo looked at each one, by the end he wished he could drive them all out. The old woman kneeling on the ground felt her heart pounding with fear, if this Prince wasn't happy, a flick of his finger could end her life!
“My Lord, My Lord, there aren't many wet nurses in Phoenix Nest City. At least leave one or two for the young master to feed! Tomorrow morning, tomorrow morning, I will go outside the city to find, and I will definitely find a wet nurse that will satisfy my master!”
Fu ZiMo had originally been about to dismiss the last two, but after hearing the old nanny's words, he stopped. He let out a helpless sigh and finally, from among all the misshapen ones, picked out two nannies that were barely acceptable and kept them.
The other two wet nurses weren't just overcome with joy, they were also terrified by the cruel prince. In short, they cried, but at the prince's words, their tears stopped abruptly.
Because the Great King said, if they cried like this and his adopted son saw them, if his adopted son also learned to cry like that, he would gouge out their eyes!
That night, the Wangfu was bustling with activity, as lively as a festive occasion. Although only two people, one big and one small, had moved in, it caused everyone in the palace to become tense and busy.
In the luxurious courtyard, Xiao Changyue had just fallen asleep when she heard a commotion. She was displeased and asked the maid guarding her bed, "Go see what's going on. Why are they disturbing this princess's rest at this late hour!"
The maidservant immediately climbed up and went to the kitchen. After a while, she came back, but her speech was stammering because of nervousness, "It's Wangye's personal attendant, Mu He, who is here with the manager to select capable maidservants from each courtyard."
“What do you want the capable maidservant to do” Xiao Changyue frowned, suddenly looking over with a fierce gaze.
The maidservant lowered her head even further. “Manager Mu He said that the Young Master has ordered to select a few beautiful and capable maidservants to serve in the young mistress’s outer courtyard. If the young mistress were to see them, even just their good looks would be able to bring some joy.”
Once the maidservant finished speaking, she didn't dare to look at Xiao Changyue's face. As someone who lived in this courtyard, she knew Xiao Changyue's temperament well.
As expected, the maid was still trembling and hurriedly threw a shoe at herself.
“What nonsense are you spouting! Which young miss from the royal family would be here Are you trying to take advantage of this Duchess because the King hasn't left an heir Is this another problem created by you lowly servants to make things difficult for me” Xiao Changyue roared.
