"Mom, you have to equip me well. I don't want to fall into their hands!"
"Don't worry, I've modified a hidden weapon for you. Hang it around your neck. Press here and it will spray out poison powder. But you must hold your breath. The antidote is also ready. Press another button and it will pop out. Just be prepared.
There is also this gold bracelet on the hand, which contains an anesthetic needle. Pressing the red gem is for group shooting, and the green one is for single shooting.
Another bracelet with bells contains mini smoke bombs, one in each bell. You just need to pull them off and throw them away.
How comprehensive is that? If I have the chance to use it, I won't be caught."
"Wow, all of this was made by mom?"
Doudou held a gold lock-like collar, and no one would have guessed it contained poison gas. The smoke bombs looked like gold beads, and this set looked like a birthday gift for him; no one would have guessed it contained chemical weapons.
"Of course, I've made a lot of these kinds of mechanical gadgets before!"
"These are my gifts!"
"Well, it's just a part. I made several sets. There's one more thing I didn't intend to give you so soon, but the situation is special, so I'll give it to you first."
Bai Zhiyue took out something that looked like an alien Rubik's Cube, and twisted it a few times to turn it into a pocket gun, which was very suitable for Doudou's small, chubby hands.
This is a gun that looks like a toy Rubik's Cube. She used the existing equipment in the arsenal, disassembled the usable parts, and through precise calculations, modified it and used a 3D printer to make it.
The bullets were also specially made, purely handmade, and due to the limitation of ejection, they were only suitable for close-range shooting, which was just right for his situation.
"Wow, that's so cool, just like a Transformer. Thanks, mom. I love it."
Doudou kept feeling around with it in his hand. It was made of titanium alloy, an aviation material. It was resistant to high temperature corrosion and was not heavy, so it did not feel heavy to hold.
"I knew you'd like it. I'm still working on other designs for when you're older."
"Mom is awesome, take me to the space and find a room for me to try out the feel!"
"good!"
After sending the servants away, the two went into the space to test the guns.
Doudou has a high level of mental strength, so if he sets his sights on a target, he never misses. Although his lethality is poor beyond 40 meters, he can definitely blow a skull apart at close range, which is very useful.
Bai Zhiyue made a belt that can be buckled on to disguise it as a toy.
"Perfect"
Wan Shanting had no idea that his past had been completely exposed, and he still insisted on going to work every day despite the strange looks he received. However, he had lost a lot of weight, which earned him the sympathy of many of the ladies.
The emperor only sent people to watch from a distance as long as they did not leave the imperial city, and to arrest them immediately if anything unusual happened.
The rumors these days have made most families give up the idea of marrying him as their son-in-law. Women are not all brainless. Once the filter is broken, it will be impossible to piece together that perfect image again.
Princess Jiayang did not change her opinion at all. The image of that serious, handsome man who was not swayed by power had been deeply engraved in her heart and could not be shaken off. The more she disagreed, the more she thought about the good things about that man.
In addition, Wan Shanting sent people to sneak into her yard and talk about him and Bai's affairs when she passed by.
"Lord Wan is so wronged. He didn't even fight back when Madam Bai bullied him like this, and he was still only thinking about Madam Bai."
"Of course not. Let's not talk about the princess, let's talk about all the noble ladies. Who wouldn't be better than Bai? But Lord Wan rejected them all. He is not the kind of person who pursues power and profit."
"Yes, there's no way you can trust what those servants say. They're all Madam Bai's servants anyway, so they just say whatever they're told. I heard they bribed someone to take them there that day just to ruin Lord Wan's reputation.
"But Master Wan accepted it anyway, knowing full well that he had no money, yet he still insisted on buying it. Isn't that embarrassing? Master Wan really suffered a great injustice for such a small favor."
"Mrs. Bai is afraid of damaging her reputation and the anger of the noble ladies, so she lets Lord Wan bear all the responsibility. How cruel."
"Indeed, everyone says Lord Wan is delusional. That's strange. If Lady Bai hadn't secretly revealed anything, how could Lord Wan have such thoughts? The groom might have been instructed by Lady Bai herself to reveal the news. When he realized the situation was unfavorable and feared retaliation from the noble lady, he gave up. It's all Lord Wan's fault."
"How pitiful, Lord Wan!"
"Forget it, I can only complain, but there's nothing I can do. I can't help even if I want to!"
The voice slowly faded away, but Jiayang heard it. She firmly believed that this was the truth, and she became even angrier than before.
"Hmph, if you dare to harm me, Wan Lang, I'll make you suffer. Hmph! You can't help me, but I can!"
And similar things are happening in other palaces as well.
Bai Zhiyue had asked the housekeeper to send invitations to each mansion, and she personally delivered the one to the princess's mansion.
It's not about making the princess go, but about making her not go.
"That's why, it's Doudou's first birthday celebration. I can't miss such a big event."
"Your condition has just stabilized, and I'm afraid too many people won't be able to take care of you."
The princess finally managed to keep the baby stable, and she couldn't take any risks, so she sent everyone away and secretly told them the reason.
"You mean~"
"There might be trouble, so you can't go. Don't tell anyone about this, and don't tell the palace that you're not going. Just find a reason to stay in the palace that day, but don't let anyone find out and ruin the emperor's plans."
The princess also knows that this is a serious matter
“I know what to do.”
Six days later, August 19th was a good day.
The front of Marquis Anding's Mansion was bustling with people coming and going.
The Prince of Qi's Mansion, the Marquis of Zhengbei's Mansion, General Cui's Mansion, the newly appointed Yingtian Prefecture Governor, and others had all come. Strangely enough, the Marquis of Pingnan's Mansion had also come. She was quite puzzled that the two mansions, who seemed to have a grudge against each other, would still come.
Just treat them well when they come, there is nothing wrong with that.
Cui Yuyu, who was divorced and had one child, came with the general's wife. Perhaps she had come to her senses during this period. When she saw Bai Zhiyue, she sincerely thanked her and gave her a generous gift. She was no longer the picky wife of the Gao family.
In fact, Bai Zhiyue also understood that the Cui family also hoped that Cui Yuyu could let go of the past and start to interact with the noble ladies in the imperial city again. She had to think more about her children. As long as General Cui was around, everyone would always give her some consideration.
The one-year-old celebration banquet at the Marquis of Anding's Mansion was an opportunity, but she wouldn't mind it. This was how the nobles in the imperial city interacted with each other. Every banquet was a platform.
The Chen family, which cooperates with Bai Zhiyue, has become a new generation of royal merchants. The young master Chen Dekai was also invited here with his wife today, and the gifts he brought were also quite generous.
Bai Zhiyue from the Su family was also invited, so they had to come to such an occasion.
Although Princess Pingyang did not come, she asked Nanny Tian to come and help early. This made everyone understand how much the princess's mansion valued her.
