After sighing, Jiaming noticed that Su Peisheng, Hongtao, and even Fourth Master were all looking at her with strange expressions.

"Ah!" Jiaming clutched her chest, startled. "Why are you all staring at me?"

Su Peisheng looked at Jiaming with admiration, thinking to himself, "This Guarjia master is really something, daring to pretend to be confused in front of me."

Hongtao looked terrified. "Master, since you've already said it in front of the Prince, just admit it already! If you keep pretending and don't confess, what if you anger the Prince...?" She couldn't help but shudder at the thought of the consequences of the Fourth Prince's anger: the master would fall out of favor, the young master would fall out of favor, and the other masters in the harem would take advantage of the situation.

Of course, Jiaming didn't know what Su Peisheng and Hongtao were thinking. In response to her question, the Fourth Master squinted and said, "Guarjia Jiaming, Hongxuan will be raised by me from now on. You just need to feed him milk."

Jiaming was unhappy, but she also knew that this world was patriarchal, and that as a concubine, she really had no right to raise children.

So no matter how unhappy they were, they always lowered their eyes to hide it.

Then, she said calmly, "This servant knows her own status and is not qualified to educate Hongxuan. I understand what you mean, Your Highness."

Fourth Master had long known that Jiaming was good at putting on an act, so even though Jiaming's expression was indifferent and she seemed quite unconcerned, he still understood that Jiaming was unhappy.

Moreover, judging from Jiaming's answer, the Fourth Prince knew that this woman had misunderstood him. He had no intention of looking down on her because she was just a princess and not qualified to raise Hongxuan.

.

For some reason, Fourth Master actually gave Jiaming an explanation. However, Fourth Master's explanation was somewhat arrogant. He snorted and said, "Hmph, even if Hongxuan asked you to teach her manners, you still wouldn't be able to teach her well."

"Hmph, you actually say Hongxuan is spineless, giving in as soon as I pat his head? I think Hongxuan's temperament is just right. If he were to follow your teachings, I would have to feed him willingly... uh, taking advantage of your position and pushing your luck, you're practically corrupting Hongxuan!"

Upon hearing Fourth Master's words, Jiaming's calm expression instantly shattered, and she was dumbfounded.

Why does this sound so familiar?

Oh, right, isn't that exactly what I was thinking to myself just now, lamenting that Hongxuan was useless and needed to be properly educated, otherwise he'd be sold out and still be counting the money for others?

Dumbfounded, Jiaming stared at the Fourth Prince, blinking repeatedly, before asking naively, "This concubine... just now, I actually blurted out what was on my mind?"

This stupid woman doesn't even realize she's speaking her mind!

Looking at the dumbfounded Jiaming, Fourth Master suddenly felt a little amused. His eyes crinkled with laughter, his lips curled up, and he nodded.

Now, Jiaming didn't know what to say. She felt her lips twitching uncontrollably. How embarrassing!

"Mwah!"

The loud sound broke Jiaming's awkward mental state. Looking in the direction of the sound, she saw that her chubby little boy had stretched out his two chubby little arms to hug Fourth Master's neck, wrapped his two little legs around Fourth Master's arm, and was hanging on Fourth Master's body like that. Then his little mouth was pressed against Fourth Master's face, and he was drooling!

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that Hongxuan's forceful kiss had left a mark on the Fourth Prince's face.

Jiaming watched this scene, her lips twitching again, but instead of feeling embarrassed, she found it incredibly funny!

With a bright smile, she glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw Hongtao and Su Peisheng looking dumbfounded. The next second, she saw the two of them suddenly lower their heads and their shoulders begin to tremble.

Su Peisheng, who was laughing so hard he almost fell over, thought: "My lord's cold face, with those kiss marks, is really hilarious! But little Prince Hongxuan is really amazing; he's only a few months old and he's already so strong."

The Fourth Prince, who was happily smearing Hongxuan's saliva on his mouth, only then noticed the difference between Jiaming and the others.

Is Ming'er laughing? Wasn't she just feeling awkward?

Uh, something's not right with Su Peisheng, that lackey, he's actually laughing?

What's so funny? Fourth Master looked inquisitively at the only person looking at him—Jiaming.

As soon as Jiaming received the Fourth Prince's probing gaze, she immediately and naturally looked away from the marks on his face, and calmly asked him, "Your Highness, why are you looking at me like that?"

As for the mark on Fourth Master's face, she didn't plan to tell him. Just thinking about it made Jiaming want to laugh.

However, she had to hold back her laughter, otherwise, if the Fourth Master found out, she would definitely be held responsible.

Ke Jiaming's idea is good, but it also depends on whether God will cooperate!

Just as Fourth Master was about to give up his doubts and investigation after hearing Jiaming's questions and seeing her natural reaction, Granny Sun came in carrying a small bowl of rice porridge.

.

Upon seeing this, Jiaming secretly realized something was wrong.

Sure enough, when Granny Sun looked at the Fourth Master, she froze. Her respectful old face instantly broke down, her chrysanthemum blooming in a flash, before she quickly composed herself.

But because it was so hard to hold back the laughter, his old face became somewhat distorted with the smile.

However, Fourth Master still realized that Granny Sun had suddenly changed her expression upon seeing him.

So, Ming'er, that woman, deceived herself.

Fourth Master squinted and looked at Jiaming with great disrespect. How dare she lie to him! It seems I didn't teach her a lesson enough last night.

While thinking about giving Jiaming a bigger lesson that night, he looked at his personal eunuch Su Peisheng, whose shoulders had stopped shaking, and asked, "Su Peisheng, what's wrong with the master?"

Upon hearing this, Su Peisheng reflexively raised his eyes respectfully to look at the Fourth Master. Then, his respectful expression instantly vanished, and he quickly lowered his head, his shoulders trembling again.

Now, Fourth Master was even more certain that something was wrong with his face.

Just then, Fourth Master felt something warm and soft touch his cheek. After it left, the spot felt cool.
