"What's wrong with the prince?"
Jian Yu asked, she had just coaxed one, and a second one came?
"Was mother afraid last night?"
The young prince walked to Jian Yu and sat down, his eyes fixed on Jian Yu, trying to see the answer from the other person's expression.
"Not afraid."
Jian Yu answered very succinctly. She was indeed not afraid, but more panicked. Overall... it had nothing to do with fear.
The young prince, who didn't know he had been drugged, pursed his lips and said a little depressed: "Yesterday you risked your life to save me, but at night when you were in danger, I was fast asleep."
Listening to the constant snoring in the Bienbei military camp, the young prince developed an unbeatable sleep quality. He thought it was because he slept too much.
Although Zhou Jialiang was only six years old, he was a very principled person. He felt that he owed Jian Yu.
When he fell off the cliff last night, the other party was able to reach out to catch him regardless of his own danger. This move was enough to surprise him. Later, at that moment, he still had no intention of letting him go.
He didn't close his eyes when Manager Rong Er let go, so he clearly saw the panic in the other person's eyes. This was not a plot rehearsed in advance. She really wanted to save him regardless of her own life!
If it was acting, it would have been exposed when his life was on the line.
After returning to the villa, the young prince kept guard in the courtyard, wanting to know why he was rescued. However, when he woke up the next day, what he heard was the assassination that happened last night.
He felt that he owed Jian Yu.
Zhou Jialiang was emotionally confused, and suddenly felt at a loss when facing Jian Yu.
Hearing the words of the young prince, Jian Yu smiled. Many naughty children actually have their own standard line of thinking. As long as they grasp that line and teach students in accordance with their aptitude, the naughty children will become reasonable.
Now Jian Yu seems to have discovered the "weakness" of the young prince.
——He is afraid that others will treat him sincerely.
That's why after she saved him, she wanted to talk to her. When she learned that she was in danger, she was unhappy that she didn't help.
Jian Yu's eyes flashed, she seemed to have found a way to "treat" the young prince.
"Silly boy, what are you talking about? I am your mother. I saved you voluntarily. I never thought of asking you for anything in return."
This was also Jian Yu's true thoughts. She subconsciously stretched out her hand to pull him back. When she returned to the Imperial Mansion, she never thought of asking the young prince for anything.
It's not that Jian Yu has a decent temperament, but that she might play tricks with a dog assassin instead of the young prince.
After all, a "deal" had been reached in his heart before, and he would take good care of the young prince until Prince Jing came back, so there would be no need to plot anything against him.
However, the young prince's lawless temper needs to be repaired. It would be a pity if this little person grows up to become a reckless man who can only use force!
During the period when she is his "mother", she will fulfill the responsibilities of an elder, and then leave it to Prince Jing.
Jian Yu thought that it was enough to feel so clear.
The ears of the young prince were red after being touched. He lowered his head and drank soup to hide his embarrassment.
After taking two sips, the young prince raised his head and glanced at Jian Yu, then asked, "Are you feeling well?"
Zhou Jialiang stopped calling him mother, and Jian Yu didn't care about the title. This kind of talking about you is the true nature of the young prince.
If the other party calls mother seriously, he is definitely pretending.
Jian Yu was about to say it was good, but she choked on the soup in her mouth and couldn't stop coughing. After she recovered, she couldn't say the word "good." She said, "It's not bad."
The young prince didn't know what he thought of, and his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
"Your Majesty, is your health okay?"
She was not the only one who drank the soothing soup last night. The main reason why Jian Yu was not worried about the young prince was that Tang Fu's plan was specifically aimed at her. According to the current trend, Tang Fu, who didn't know that Prince Jing was not dead, would definitely still want to control him. The young prince came to control the military situation in the north, so he would not be harmed.
"No, hiss~ It's okay!"
The young prince turned to Jian Yu and wanted to say it was okay, but the left butt hit the chair, and he couldn't help but hissed at the sudden pain.
He got up in the morning and took a closer look. The spot on his left side where he had been kicked was bruised and swollen! It was exactly the same as the flying kick he received when he sneaked into the army and wanted to fight the golden slaves with him!
Thinking of this, Zhou Jialiang didn't look very happy. Why did he always think of his father because of Rong Er's affairs? The other party is not as good as my father!
Jian Yu looked at the sitting posture of the young prince with his left butt raised, and vaguely remembered Hongmei telling her that the young prince was kicked up.
Who kicked it? Dog assassin!
Based on the other party's bad temper, she seriously suspected that this kick was intended to teach the young prince a lesson, Jian Yu thought with malicious suspicion in her heart.
Little did he know, she had completely discovered the truth.
"Princess, the Queen Mother has sent someone."
Zhou Jinyan's voice came from outside. Jian Yu and the young prince's expressions changed at the same time. They narrowed their eyes and then snorted in their hearts.
Hongmei snickered beside her, the expressions on the master's and the prince's faces were exactly the same!
The young prince now feels that Jian Yu may be good, but there must be something wrong with Rong Er's management. Although the other party saved his life, no, he had to save her!
He held his mother's hand. If he didn't go up, her mother would fall down.
Therefore, the first person the young prince wanted to thank was Jian Yu, and he did not acknowledge other life-saving graces.
The standards in the minds of naughty children are so unreasonable.
When the maid outside came in, she said that the Queen Mother had originally wanted to come in person, but she was not feeling well due to some fever and it was inconvenient to come.
She came here to pass on the Queen Mother's message and ask the killer what Princess Jing thought of the matter. If she had no other questions, she would escort him back to Shengjing in the afternoon for trial at Dali Temple.
"As for the killer, I have made other important discoveries. Since the Queen Mother is not feeling well, she will rest for now. She will report to the Queen Mother after she recovers. Before that, the killer is best kept in Zhuangzi under strict supervision."
Jian Yu knew that the Empress Dowager sent someone to inquire just as a formality and did not need her attitude at all, but how could Jian Yu let this matter go away?
Isn't Tang Fu going to deal with her? Next, the other party will feel what it feels like to be scratched by her own knife.
The maid's lips moved, but in the end she didn't dare to say anything, so she responded and left.
Zhou Jinyan was still waiting at the door. He did not go out. Instead, he looked over and said with concern: "Is your health okay? How about I make you some soothing soup?"
"By the way, is the crown prince's buttocks okay? The situation was urgent at that time, and I didn't understand the severity of the situation. Do you need to call the imperial doctor to take a look?"
Zhou Jinyan said that he was really caring about Jian Yu when he said to make the soothing soup. He felt that she was frightened a lot and needed to drink some soothing soup. As for the young prince, it was pure ridicule.
You bastard, you need to be dealt with!
No matter what, as soon as these two sentences were said, the expressions of mother and son were in sync with each other again, and they looked at Zhou Jinyan with icy eyes.
Zhou Jinyan:......
