Chapter 2: The Dark Little Cub
Dabao took another apple and ate it: "Donggong has money, delicious food and drinks, I want it!"
Erbao said weakly, "If the prince doesn't survive next year, I will be the crown prince and the emperor in the future. Yes!"
Xiaobao nodded his head: The prince is the most handsome man, I want him!
The little ones all agreed, and Bai Taotao also agreed. She held out her hand and said, "Come on, let's work hard together to outlast our cheap dad and inherit the East Palace's wealth!"
Crown Prince Lu Jiuyuan was diagnosed by the imperial physician and has only one year to live!
As long as they can outlast the prince, they will win!
…
East Palace.
The night in the courtyard is long and the moonlight is endless.
Lu Jiuyuan sat in a wheelchair, his body thin and gaunt. The bright moonlight fell on him, as if coated with silver light, making him look so handsome as if he was a god who had strayed into the mortal world.
However, due to his years of physical weakness, his aura was filled with sinisterness and evil, as if he had fallen into the devil's grip.
Lu Jiuyuan sneered: "Cheap dad? That kid is very good at describing it!"
Lu Jiuyuan, who was listening to Eunuch Xi, suddenly shuddered and felt a chill on his back:???
He's not sick yet, is he just shivering in the middle of summer?
Eunuch Xi took a blanket and spread it across his legs: "Your Highness, please take care of yourself. There's no need to bother with those three kids. They're just innocent children."
Lu Jiuyuan curled his thin lips coldly: "The children are still young. Should I cut off their tongues and soak them in wine first, or strangle their necks before they die and let them be filial to me in the underworld?"
If the emperor truly loved him, why would he allow him to marry a woman who had lost her virginity before marriage and had three children?
Eunuch Xi didn't dare to say much, His Highness was a man of sharp tongue but soft heart, he would never harm the three little kids!
Lu Jiuyuan pinched his brows and asked, "Have you found the person?"
Five years ago, Lu Jiuyuan went to the battlefield to kill the enemy. On his way back in triumph, he was ambushed, seriously injured and fell unconscious under a bridge.
However, he was drugged and raped by a woman who didn't care about his life or death and was seriously injured!
As a result, Lu Jiuyuan missed the best rescue and treatment, his legs became disabled, and he was confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life, and he could no longer be humane!
So Lu Jiuyuan hated this woman to death, and he just wanted to find this woman while she was still alive, cut her into pieces, pull out her tendons and skin, cut off her flesh and bones, grind her bones into ashes, so that he could relieve the hatred in his heart!
Eunuch Xi: “Not yet!”
His Highness only gave one clue, which was that the woman had a red mole under her left armpit.
That's it, how to find it?
This is harder than finding a needle in a haystack!
Lu Jiuyuan's handsome face was so cold that it was almost frozen, and his voice was icy: "If you still can't find the person in another three months, you will all be beheaded!"
Even if he goes to hell, he will find this damn woman and turn her to ashes!
…
The Bai family and their group arrived at Jingxin Temple the next day.
Old Madam Shen looked at Bai Taotao who was sitting calmly on the armchair. She had not seen her for nearly five years and had thought that she was toiling day and night in the nunnery, and was as vulgar as a village woman.
It turned out that although she had a slender figure, her face was as white as a peach with a rosy glow, and she looked even more noble and delicate than when she was in the mansion.
This made Mrs. Shen feel depressed: How come this dead girl's family is dead! And she has great luck, what bad luck!
Seeing that Bai Taotao showed no sign of giving up her seat, Lady Li, the wife of the Marquis of Yong'an, finally couldn't stand it any longer: "Taotao, your grandmother is tired of standing, look..."
Bai Taotao nodded sensibly: "Understood, I'll make the arrangements!"
Old Madam Shen and Mrs. Li were relieved to see that Bai Taotao was still as easy to talk to as in previous years. They were afraid that Bai Taotao would take advantage of her impending becoming the Crown Princess to settle accounts with them.
Bai Taotao smiled sweetly at them, then raised her hands and clapped.
After the applause died down, Erbao rolled up a straw mat and spread it on the ground.
Then Dabao reached out and pulled Mrs. Shen, and took her down and laid her on the straw mat.
Old Madam Shen only felt pain in her waist, and the pain made her roll her eyes.
Then, Xiaobao took a piece of white cloth and covered Mrs. Shen with it.
Then Dabao, Erbao and Xiaobao all squatted beside Old Madam Shen, pounded her with their little fists and burst into tears.
The chubby Dabao pressed down on Old Madam Shen: "Great-grandmother, rest in peace!"
He was able to suppress the old woman so much that she couldn't get up or speak clearly! Erbao punched her with his little fists: "Great-grandmother, you have a long sleep!"
He knows the acupoints well, and just hammering a few painful acupoints will definitely make the old woman cry out in pain!
Xiaobao couldn't cry out, but tears fell from his big eyes, and it looked like he was heartbroken and grief-stricken.
Old Madam Shen was nearly beaten to death by the three little brats, and her eyes rolled back. She wanted to get up, but it felt like a hundred-pound stone was pressing on her, and she couldn't get up.
Madam Shen raised her hand with difficulty: "Pull..."
She had just opened her mouth when she was interrupted by the sad sound of a funeral suona.
It was Bai Taotao who got the suona from somewhere and was playing it.
Old Madam Shen was almost sent away. Amidst the piercing sound of the suona, she shouted with all her might, "I'm not dead yet! Get out of here!"
Bai Taotao decided to quit while she was ahead, otherwise if she really sent the person away, she would have to spend time cleaning up the mess!
As soon as she stopped playing the suona, the three little ones also stopped, stood up, and stood obediently beside Bai Taotao.
Li finally came back to her senses after this scene and quickly went to help Madam Shen: "Mother, are you okay?"
Old Madam Shen was furious and pushed Li away: "You are pulling me now, where were you just now? I think you are sincere."
Li was indeed feeling a little aggrieved. The incident happened suddenly, and she didn't even come to her senses in the blink of an eye.
Old Madam Shen had originally wanted to be kind to Bai Taotao and mend the relationship between the grandmother and the granddaughter, but now she was furious.
Old Madam Shen was not in a good mood towards Bai Taotao and directly gave an order: "We are already here, you can go back home and wait for your wedding!"
She didn't want to stay here for even a quarter of an hour, and she was too lazy to make things difficult for Bai Taotao.
Bai Taotao nodded politely: "Okay, I'll go back tomorrow. Thank you for your hard work, Grandma."
Erbao walked up to Mrs. Li, tilted his head, and asked in a baby voice, "Auntie looks familiar to me, very kind. Can you hug me?"
Mrs. Li doesn't like Bai Taotao and won't like her children either.
But who would refuse the request of a sick and poor little kid?
Besides, Bai Taotao will soon be the Crown Princess. Only by having a good relationship with her can you gain benefits from her in the future.
Mrs. Li kindly picked up the second baby.
She asked, "Where has Erbao seen Auntie before? Why would she feel so close to her?"
I heard that children like to praise others as Guanyin Bodhisattva, and this Erbao must be the same.
Erbao stretched out his thin hand and patted Li's head, his face full of innocence and seriousness: "It's an old female dog down the mountain. She gave birth to many puppies and grandchildren."
Baldness powder was sprinkled on her head and took effect after an incense stick.
The smile on Li's face suddenly froze, like... an old bitch?
This is clearly an insult to her!
Li was so angry that she wanted to throw Erbao to the ground!
