Chapter 68: My dear, call me aunt

Princess Xianning had just adopted a son, and now was the time for her to be in high spirits. She had forgotten all the male favorites in the princess's mansion and was pestering the empress dowager to stay in Renshou Palace to accompany the child.

Seeing that she cared about Bei Qin, the Queen Mother was happy to let them cultivate the mother-son relationship.

Princess Xianning came over with Beiqin while they were having dinner, because the younger ones had to pay their respects to the elders.

But when it came to Princess Guangde, the seal got stuck.

Princess Xianning reminded him: "Good boy, call me aunt."

"Don't go too far, Bei Jinwan. Let my own son call my aunt. Don't go too far."

Bei Lunwan saw her jumping up and down, but the curve of his mouth didn't change at all, he still looked calm and composed.

Just ignore her.

Just look at Bei Qin and see his choice.

"Auntie, all is well."

His choice is always firm.

There's no going back, there's no turning back.

Why should he go back when he had almost lost the hearing of one ear in exchange for the chance to climb out of the abyss?

Princess Guangde only then felt a deep pain in her heart. She knew clearly that her child absolutely did not want her as a mother anymore.

"Zhao Qian, the grace of giving birth to me is greater than heaven!"

She shouted at the top of her lungs, "I gave birth to you. I carried you for ten months in my womb. You owe me your whole life!"

After saying this, she seemed to be exhausted and couldn't stand steadily.

The palace maids went up to support her, but she continued to shrink downwards.

Princess Guangde's eyes were bloodshot and she stared at Bei Qin intently, like a demon crawling out of the ground.

It was as if his calling her aunt really hurt her.

Bei Qin didn't understand. Wasn't he just an insignificant tool for her to vent her anger?

Otherwise, why could she not care at all when he was sick and injured? Where did her attitude of caring so much come from?

"If you want to leave, what will you give back to your mother? Go die if you can!"

The Queen Mother slapped the table and stood up: "Guangde!"

"You are getting more and more unreasonable. I am the one who made the decision on the adoption. What do you have to say? Come to me."

"You cursed your own son to death, and you still say you are worthy of being a mother!"

Princess Guangde turned her hateful gaze towards the Queen Mother, "Mother."

"Your Majesty the Queen Mother."

"You promised my mother that you would take good care of me and protect me for the rest of my life."

"She died for your sin!"

"But you want to give my child to someone else. You promised my mother that her daughter is your daughter, your daughter."

"Why do you do this to me!"

Suddenly hearing the palace secret, Princess Xianning and the others were shocked that there was such a hidden story behind Concubine Qiu’s death.

Only Bei Jingchu, who holds the script, is as steady as an old dog, so it can be said that the sisterhood is touching.

So even though the Queen Mother disliked Princess Guangde's character and mind, she was still very kind to her.

When her relationship with the emperor was strained, she asked the emperor to give her the richest fiefdom.

Princess Guangde's guards are of the highest quality among all the princesses. They are all personally selected by the Queen Mother, and the rewards she has received over the years are much more generous than those of other princesses.

In other words, every time I asked her if she had any difficulties or been wronged at home, she said no.

Having a treasure in your hand but not knowing how to use it is like playing a good hand of cards badly.

Maybe it's just that fools have good luck.

The face that looked very similar to Concubine Qiu was full of resentment. The empress dowager closed her eyes, unwilling to look at it anymore.

"Take her away and let her calm down."

Guangde will understand sooner or later that she is doing this for her own good.

Even though the child is gone, at least he is alive and healthy.

It can be seen and touched.

If I continue to be tormented by her intentionally or unintentionally, and something really happens, I will be the one sending the young away, and no amount of regret will make up for it.

Zhao Yu came up at this time and said softly: "Grandma, don't be sad, Yu'er will accompany you obediently."

Princess Xianning raised her eyebrows slightly. No wonder her new son couldn't compete with this boy.

Look at this clever kid who seizes every opportunity to please others and you'll know who's the biggest one.

And what about Bei Qin?

He lowered his head and picked his fingernails vigorously.

Oh~ It doesn't matter if you're a little stupid, you can't return the product.

After this incident, Princess Guangde perhaps came to her senses or something, but she regained her composure.

The difference is that with Princess Xianning around, things start to get interesting.

Bei Jingchu watched them perform Shura Field every day.

As if to piss off Princess Guangde.

Princess Guangde picked up a piece of food for Zhao Yu, and Princess Xianning picked up a full bowl for Bei Qin.

Bei Qin: Such a heavy maternal love.

Princess Guangde brought a bunch of toys to Zhao Yu, and Princess Xianning brought a bunch of books and essays to Bei Qin.

This thing is much rarer than those little toys, and there are several rare copies.

Bei Qin: Are you going to kill me, my friend?

Princess Guangde changed Zhao Yu's dressings tenderly and carefully, while Princess Xianning fed Bei Qin the medicine mouthful by mouthful herself.

But...

"Ah...Mother."

He's not completely used to it yet, so it feels a bit awkward when he calls out.

"You might as well just let me finish it in one gulp. A short pain is worse than a long pain. A short suffering is worse than a long pain."

Princess Xianning handed the bowl to him apologetically: "I thought you would be very touched."

Bei Qin: I dare not move.

I dare not move at all.

Finally, Princess Guangde couldn't stand it anymore and asked Princess Xianning: "Sister, are you imitating me?"

When she was talking to others, she would speak softly even when questioning them, for fear of offending them by speaking too loudly.

She was a cowardly person to begin with, and only dared to speak harshly to her own children. Both times she confronted Princess Xianning, she was in a state of emotional outburst.

"You have already snatched away Qin'er, why are you still imitating my sister and making things difficult for me?"

Princess Xianning was leading two maids and carrying a pile of cloth towards Beiqin's room.

Although the clothes the child was wearing were not old, the style was not the most fashionable and the material was just ordinary satin.

Looking at him alone, combined with his small face, he looks like a young nobleman.

But he pales in comparison when standing next to Zhao Yu, as that child is wearing all brocade.

She had no control over what happened in the past, but since he was the son of Princess Xianning, his food, clothing, housing and transportation must be the best.

She ordered people to take out all the best Shu brocade, Yun brocade, and Huan Gou brocade from her warehouse, preparing to buy a batch of new clothes for Bei Qin.

There are also hair accessories, jade pendants and other items suitable for the young man, some of which have been made and given to him.

The rest are kept in the princess's mansion.

She was taking people to have Bei Qin measured and have clothes made for her when she was stopped by Princess Guangde.

"Yes, sister. This is my first time being a mother. I have no experience and I am very confused."

"Luckily, my sister is here so I can learn from her."

"I thought it was just a recitation. Since my younger sister is imitating her elder sister, Qin'er might be tired of all this care."

"But I didn't expect that Qin'er found it so new and strange. Could it be that my sister had never done these things to Qin'er?"

"Then I want to thank you, sister, for leaving me all the memories of Qin'er's first tenderness towards his mother. I know that sister loves me the most."

Princess Guangde was so angry that she gritted her teeth and couldn't speak, "You..."

You've been talking for a long time but you still can't come up with anything.

Princess Xianning raised her head and walked away like a victorious rooster, leaving Princess Guangde alone and feeling aggrieved.

What made her even more depressed was that during this period, Bei Qin was no longer as gloomy as before.

He laughed more often and became more cheerful and sunny.

Everything reminded her that Beiqin was not depressed by nature, but it was because she was an incompetent mother that she turned a good child into that state.

Princess Guangde returned to her temporary bedroom in Renshou Hall, took off the jade Buddha from her neck and placed it on the incense table.

Take out three incense sticks, light them, raise your hands high, and pray devoutly.

May the Buddha bless the believers, and may Yi Yuer successfully enter Hongwenguan, and may Erqiner change his mind.

She is humble and has a firm belief in gods and Buddhas, but how can gods and Buddhas have mercy on someone who has created the cause and effect of her own actions?
