Chapter 46 We Help You Usurp the Throne



The name of the country is as wild as its people.

He is rude and unreasonable, but good at riding and shooting.

The Savage Kingdom was resource-poor, with only grasslands, cattle, sheep, and horses. The strong winds and high terrain had led to generations of invasions of neighboring kingdoms, plundering their supplies. The Savage King even frequently led despicable acts like murder, robbery, and kidnapping for ransom, truly a band of uncivilized barbarians.

There was once a prince in Nanqiao Kingdom who colluded with the barbarians to seize the throne. After he ascended the throne, the gifts he was asked for could pile up into a mountain.

In short, the appearance of barbarians in Prince Jing’s mansion is definitely not a good thing!

The mute Prince Gong sneered silently, with bloodthirsty murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

If Prince Jing dared to do anything unlawful, he would definitely kill that paralyzed bastard himself! Nan Qiao now had a little lucky star, and Prince Jing was making an enemy of the entire Nan Qiao...

Prince Jing's Mansion, study.

Prince Jing, who was sitting on the four-wheeled cart, looked coldly at the five strong men in front of him and said unhappily, "What are you doing here?"

The five burly men exchanged glances with each other, and Abar stepped out.

His voice was rough and he spoke with a strange accent: "You promised, we did it, but you didn't do it."

Prince Jing narrowed his eyes, shooting a venomous, sinister glare at him: "If you hadn't given me your full support, I wouldn't have been able to ascend the throne. How can you be said to have broken your promise?"

Abal's eyes flashed with murderous intent. "In order to help you, we suffered great losses. The king's sons took advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble, so we haven't had time to settle accounts with you all these years! You are cheating!"

There has been civil unrest in the wilderness in recent years, and King Jing knows this better than anyone else.

But the original agreement was that only after helping him ascend the throne would the barbarians get the promised benefits.

Seeing that King Jing was silent, Abar suppressed his fierce momentum and softened his tone: "Our new king wants to cooperate with you. We want to help you seize the throne, and you still give us so many benefits. You are a good deal!"

Prince Jing raised his eyes quietly and said calmly, "What if I don't respond?"

"We will give the letter you wrote that year to your emperor and attack your Nanqiao!" Abar, with thick eyebrows and a broad face, curled one corner of his mouth, and his finger-long stubble trembled slightly as he laughed.

Prince Jing clutched the handrail of the four-wheeled carriage, his heart pounding.

After a long moment, he raised his eyes calmly and smiled faintly: "If that's the case, then let's discuss the details and how to usurp the throne."

Abar smiled and nodded, you are a sensible person...

"Ah..." Tianbao stretched and yawned.

She is not picky about her bed and slept very soundly last night.

Princess Jing, who was sleeping with her, got up early. Seeing her open her eyes, she lay down beside her, touched her smooth little face, and held the little girl in her arms affectionately: "Are you awake? Can Auntie comb your hair for you?"

"Thank you, Aunt Huang." Tianbao, who had just woken up, had a face that was even rosier than if she had put on rouge.

Princess Jing helped her dress herself, then carried the little girl to the stool in front of the dressing table and sat her down. She adjusted the direction of the bronze mirror and said, "Tianbao, what hairstyle do you want to wear today..."

"Ah!" Tian Bao was so scared when he saw the bronze mirror that he quickly covered his eyes and his little body trembled non-stop. "Don't look in the mirror, don't look in the mirror, take it away! Wuuwuwu..."

Princess Jing was startled by her reaction and hurriedly turned the bronze mirror upside down on the dressing table.

She hugged the trembling baby distressedly, her voice beginning to sob anxiously: "What's wrong? Don't look in the mirror, don't cry, sweet baby, don't cry, tell Aunt Huang what's wrong?"

Tianbao nestled in her arms, tears streaming down her face: "Don't look in the mirror, don't look in the mirror..."

It's as if the mirror is a man-eating monster.

After hearing her repeat this sentence, Princess Jing stopped asking questions and comforted the little girl for a long time before she calmed down.

Tianbao, who had finally stopped crying, lowered his head embarrassedly.

Princess Jing was frightened by her. In the past two years, every time she saw Tianbao, she was always smiling and happy. She had never heard Tianbao cry so heartbreakingly, as if she was about to die.

Fear of being blamed by the Emperor and Empress is secondary; the main thing is the heartache.

Princess Jing helped Tianbao tie her hair into two small buns with a small braid hanging down in the middle. The buns were wrapped with plush balls made of fire fox fur, and the end of the braids was tied with an aqua headband inlaid with hibiscus quartz.

When Tianbao jumped down from the stool, her pigtails started to jump along with her, looking so cute and lively.

Princess Jing took her hand and said, "Let's go and have breakfast with your uncle the Emperor."

Tianbao was sullen and didn't dare to look at Princess Jing. She opened her mouth as if wanting to say something but hesitated.

After walking a few steps, she couldn't help but stop and shook Princess Jing's arm: "Aunt Huang, I'm sorry."

"Hmm?" Princess Jing didn't hear clearly, so she squatted down and asked, "What did you say?"

Tianbao pouted, his wet eyes full of guilt: "I'm sorry, Tianbao was naughty and scared Aunt Huang."

Princess Jing's heart suddenly tightened. How could such a two-year-old girl, a little princess who was loved by everyone, be so sensible?

Shouldn't we be arrogant, domineering and unreasonable?

They are royally pampered!

Shouldn't we just sit back and do nothing, and have everything provided for us?

They can afford to be spoiled by the royal family!

How can he be so sensible? He is so sensible that it makes my heart hurt!

Princess Jing's nose felt sore and tears welled up. "Little sweetheart, why are you saying sorry to me? It's all my fault. I didn't know Tianbao didn't like that thing and didn't ask you in advance. Next time you come to Prince Jing's mansion, Aunt Huang will hide all those things in advance, okay?"

Tianbao was so happy that her whole body was bubbling, but at the same time she felt that she was so ignorant and scared Princess Jing.

Only the Queen and Concubine Wan knew that she didn't want to look in the mirror. With them keeping an eye on her for the past two years, nothing had ever happened. Today's incident was purely an accident.

Seeing that Princess Jing was about to cry, Tianbao wiped her tears with her warm little hands: "Auntie Huang, don't cry."

Princess Jing cried and said, "I won't cry, I won't cry."

Children have low tear points, and Tianbao couldn't help but start crying too.

Prince Jing waited for them to come for dinner, but he couldn't help but come over to take a look. From a distance, he saw an adult and a child wiping each other's tears.

He was so nervous that his voice cracked: "Why are you crying here so early in the morning? Did you have a nightmare? Or are you missing your father and mother? Or..."

Princess Jing glared at him and said, "Don't ask any more questions. Let's go eat. Don't let our little girl Tianbao starve. After dinner, I'll take Tianbao out for a walk."

Tianbao's tears stopped abruptly: Wow! Can I finally go shopping? Yes? Yes?

She wiped her tears generously and couldn't wait to thank her: "Thank you, Aunt Huang!"

Princess Jing saw her jumping forward, so she took a few steps back and quietly told Prince Jing what had just happened.

After hearing this, Prince Jing was silent for a long time, and immediately ordered all the mirrors in Prince Jing's mansion to be put away.

Although Tianbao is only two years old, he no longer allows others to feed him.

She ate it bit by bit with a small spoon, determined not to waste a single grain of rice. If she accidentally dropped a little bit on the table, she would pick it up into her mouth in the blink of an eye.

Wasting food is not a good thing.

However, this scene was seen in the eyes of Prince Jing and his wife with a completely different feeling: Tianbao must not be having a good time in the palace! Which spoiled little princess could be so sensible? It's simply unfair!

Prince Jing felt so distressed that his internal organs were in turmoil. The look in his eyes when he looked at her gradually became darker, like a ball of ink that could not be dissolved.
