Tian Bao lowered her head shyly and twisted her little fingers: "Father likes black black wood, this is a gift for him."

Thinking of the emperor's reluctance to leave, she always had to coax him after returning to the palace.

What if he doesn't treat her well in the future?

Prince Jing hesitated and said, "Did you say ebony, sweet girl?"

Tianbao nodded his little head, and every time he nodded, a double chin would appear: "Yeah! Father said that the striped black wood is the best."

Her tongue was a little knotted, and Rao didn't understand the word "ebony", so she could only use "black black wood" instead.

Prince Jing sighed and said with resentment, "Uncle Huang has a large piece of ebony wood. Give it to Tianbao girl."

Tianbao thought that a piece of wood was not worth much, but she had no idea that this piece of ebony was bought by Prince Jing at a high price. It had been placed in the mansion for two years and had been left idle because no one had decided what to do with it.

What Tianbao didn't expect was that Prince Gong's Mansion was right next to Prince Jing's Mansion.

As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of Prince Jing's mansion, Princess Jing came out to greet them and personally carried Tianbao out of the carriage.

Such a big scene was seen clearly by Prince Gong, who was in a diametrical relationship with Prince Jing next door.

There was a pavilion in Prince Gong's mansion called the Star Observation Tower. Prince Gong would stand on the top floor to spy on what was happening in Prince Jing's mansion when he had nothing to do. Prince Jing's mansion also had a tall pavilion next to the wall adjacent to Prince Gong's mansion, called the Moon-Grasping Tower, which served the same purpose.

"That...that's Princess Yongle, right?" Princess Gong, who was standing on the observatory, rubbed her eyes.

Prince Gong was so shocked that he couldn't speak. When he finally opened his mouth, he remembered that he couldn't speak in the first place.

Gnashing his teeth in disbelief, he responded, "Abba!"

yes!

He rushed down the Observatory in anger and rushed into Prince Jing's Mansion, which he had never bothered to set foot in.

The servants in Prince Jing's mansion were unable to stop him and could only hurriedly report to Prince Jing, but Prince Gong rushed up to Prince Jing right after.

Prince Jing raised his eyebrows and said with a smug smile, "That's fine. Prince Gong must have been attracted by the immense fortune of Prince Jing's mansion."

The dumb Prince Gong pointed fiercely at Tianbao's back and gave her a questioning look: How did you get her here? Did you steal her?

The paralyzed Prince Jing understood, but he spread his hands and said, "I don't understand the world of you dumb people. I know you have admired Prince Jing's mansion for a long time. If you want to visit, go ahead. I will ask the butler to show you the way."

"Bang!" There was a loud noise.

Prince Gong kicked a rock near his feet. The stone, the size of a wash basin, suddenly hit the rockery and knocked down the top. Then there was a loud crashing sound, and a lot of small gravel slid down.

When he was young, Prince Gong led troops to fight in battles and was as heroic as ever.

Prince Jing's pupils shrank drastically in shock, and he growled, "Did you know that Tianbao just went into the rockery to play?!"

The heroic look on Prince Gong's face suddenly shattered, and he hurriedly went into the small tunnel of the rockery.

The tunnel was not high, so he had to bend down to get in. The tunnel became increasingly narrow in the middle. As he went on, something seemed wrong. The light was only half a foot ahead, and there was no sign of little Sweetie.

"Aba!" You lied to me!

Prince Gong was so angry that he wanted to turn around, but he moved too quickly and got stuck.

Prince Jing then finished his words leisurely: "I just passed through and went to the inner courtyard to play."

"Aba! Aba!" The tunnel was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and Prince Gong's shoulders were stuck tightly. He could neither move forward nor backward, and he was so angry that his eyes were spitting fire.

Prince Jing waved his hand and had his guards push the four-wheeled cart to the inner courtyard, leaving a message in the wind: "Prince Gong, enjoy yourself. I'll take care of the food."

"Aba!" Prince Gong was so angry that he was shaking. He roared, but the sound echoed back and forth in the tunnel, making his ears hurt.

Inner courtyard.

Tian Bao was so surprised by what he saw that he could only express it in one word: "Wow!"

There are two swings in the yard, one big and one small. The swing ropes are decorated with pink or yellow dried flowers. They are so beautiful that they immediately hit Tianbao's liking.

Princess Jing pushed open a room. The windows of the room were tightly covered. There was a small stage inside with scenery on three sides. One side was open, obviously for people to watch.

Tian Bao wondered, "Aunt Huang, what is this?"

The sweet and sticky child's voice made Princess Jing's heart feel like it was wrapped in honey, and she smiled from ear to ear: "This is a puppet show. Auntie Huang specially prepared it for you, so that you won't be bored in Prince Jing's mansion."

"Ahem! How did it become your preparation? It was clearly my proposal." Prince Jing arrived late and was dissatisfied with Princess Jing's behavior of stealing the credit.

Princess Jing rolled her eyes at him, "Your Highness only mentioned it once. I personally arranged everything in this room. How can it not be considered my preparation?"

Prince Jing shook his head helplessly, his eyes full of doting: "Forget it, count it as your credit. But come here, sweet girl, that room is all thanks to the emperor's uncle."

Tianbao couldn't bear the itch and ran to King Jing with his short legs kicking.

She raised her little hand habitually: "Uncle Huang, hold my hand."

Prince Jing was stunned for a moment, then extended his hand.

Little Sweetie immediately put his little hand into his palm and jumped towards the house with the four-wheeled vehicle.

In her previous life, she envied other children because they had big hands to hold, either their parents or their grandparents. So in this life, she especially likes to hold the hands of her father, mother, concubine and brothers. She would feel uncomfortable if she didn't hold an older hand.

This was the first time in Prince Jing's life that he walked holding such a soft little hand.

Although he appeared calm on the surface, deep down he was deeply moved. The little baby was so adorable that he would even risk his life for her.

Prince Jing personally pushed open the door, and all he saw were little toys that children loved.

The house was filled with small bamboo horses, small drums, small pipa, small guzheng, small cuju, slides, small desks...everything imaginable in this dynasty was available.

"Wow!" Tianbao opened his mouth wide and exclaimed a few times.

In fact, most of the things here are already in Lewan Palace, but there are still some small things that are very new to her.

A feeling of happiness surged from her heart again. She was so lucky in her life.

Tears flowed out uncontrollably, and she turned her head and threw herself on Prince Jing's legs: "Thank you, Uncle Huang."

"If you like these, sweet girl, you can take them back to the palace when you return. Next time you come to Prince Jing's mansion, Uncle Huang will prepare other new things for you."

There was laughter and joy in Prince Jing's mansion all day.

Prince Jing and his wife accompanied Tianbao to watch three puppet shows in a row, and invited the housekeeper's children to accompany Tianbao to ride bamboo horses, play on the slide, and play Cuju. Tianbao was so happy that he didn't want to leave and had no time to think about the tyrant.

Prince Gong, trapped in the rockery, was so desolate that he called out "Aba" until his voice became hoarse before being rescued by Prince Jing. Several guards from Prince Jing's mansion enlarged the rockery tunnel and finally rescued him safely.

Prince Gong returned to Prince Gong's Mansion in a dusty state. He sat in the Observatory and stared at Prince Jing's Mansion while eating.

Just before curfew, several burly men sneaked in.

Prince Gong, who had had enough of the cold wind, was just about to go downstairs, but when he saw this scene, he stopped and observed for a while.

It was obvious that these people were not from the Nanqiao Kingdom. Judging from their body shapes, builds and walking posture, they looked like ambitious barbarians.

Prince Jing and Man Huang are colluding?!
