Quick Transmigration: The Foolish Beauty Saves the World

Chapter 134 The Useless Prince's Power Seizure (12)

The adorable little prince who fell into the slaves' company during the day, and the little prince who waited for Yu An for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn in the night;

The little prince who fed Yu An like a dog, the little prince who treated Yu An like a rabbit;

The prince who called Yu An a useless good-for-nothing, the prince who stripped Yu An naked without any dignity;

The little prince who called Yu An his precious treasure, the little prince who got slapped hard but still stood in front of him...

What kind of person is this young prince? Yu An still doesn't understand.

Lady Langyue personally stepped forward, grabbed Jingli's arm, and pried open Jingli's fingers that were holding Yu An one by one.

In front of Lady Langyue, Yu An did not dare to hold Jingli's hand back. His lowered gaze was just right, and he could see that Langyue Jingli's fair little hand had turned red.

It was unclear whether it was because he was gripping himself too tightly, or because Lady Langyue was prying his fingers too hard.

Jingli's strength was no match for Langyue, who was an adult. All five of his fingers were pried open. The moment he released Yu An, the palace servants who were waiting nearby immediately stepped forward and carried Yu An away.

Jingli's eyes were already blurred with tears, and he cried out in despair, "Xiao An! He's my doll! He's my rabbit!"

Langyue pulled Jingli to her side, and for some reason, she had the strange feeling of breaking up a loving couple.

She shook her head, pressed down on Jingli's shoulder, forcing him to kneel down, and then gently rubbed her forehead.

"Please excuse my poor sister and brother, I still have to discipline this unfilial son, so I will not invite you into the hall."

August still smiled and said, "Sister, there's really no need to get angry with the Third Prince over a mere servant."

The other two concubines also offered token words of advice before leaving.

As soon as they left, the courtyard was empty. Langyue remained silent, and naturally, the other palace servants dared not utter a sound.

For a moment, only Jingli's increasingly faint crying could be heard in the courtyard, until finally only uncontrollable sobbing remained.

Langyue simply sat at the stone table in the courtyard and quietly sipped her tea.

Jingli felt a little uneasy.

He knew very well that Lang Yue had just been putting on a show for the August Goddess and the others, just as his bringing Yu An back today was also a test.

Langyue is right to be angry, but it's definitely not as serious as it seems.

But even kneeling on the ground, feeling the eerie stillness, Jingli still felt a chill.

Having never personally experienced growing up, he naturally didn't know that this was called the bloodline suppression of his mother.

Have you cried enough?

Jingli was still sobbing, her head down and not saying a word.

"I'll find you a companion. When you enter the palace tomorrow, don't bother looking for me to keep you company anymore." Her voice was soft, tinged with weariness.

Jingli said stubbornly in a low voice, "Xiao An is different. Xiao An is mine."

With a clang, the teacup collided with the stone table, and the scene trembled.

"I'm asking you, what do you take that child for!"

Lang Yue's voice wasn't loud, but a slight smile curved her red lips: "The same as Cheng'er's rabbit?"

Jingli dared not utter a sound.

"If you insist on doing this, I will no longer care about you. You can do whatever you want."

With a flick of her sleeve, all the palace servants following Jingli knelt down.

"Your Majesty, please calm your anger..."

Jingli lowered his head even further; he was more shocked than afraid.

The palace has a very strict registration system. Someone like Yu An, who is not registered in the palace, is like an ant that everyone can easily crush.

Whether it was the young eunuch or the August Goddess, they treated Yu An like an object or a pet, regarding this whole affair as nothing more than child's play.

But Langyue is not.

She treated people as human beings. Her anger was not because Jingli's nonsense embarrassed her, but because Jingli treated people as playthings.

Even if the other party is just a helpless and lowly person in the palace.

"Mother……"

Jingli licked her lips and tentatively asked, "If I don't treat Xiao An like a little rabbit, can he be my playmate?"

Langyue didn't look at Jingli: "You have Zeng Yuan as your study companion, and a prince as your playmate, why do you need this servant?"

Jingli tugged at her clothes: "My study companion can only accompany me in my studies. My brothers either don't play with me or argue with me. I want to have a friend of my own."

This is absolutely true. With the succession to the throne still uncertain, the companion reading is just that—a companion reading.

Furthermore, the current emperor doesn't pay much attention to the princes' studies, and the princes and their study companions only spend half a day each day in the Imperial Study and the martial arts field, so it's hard to say that much affection can be cultivated between them.

Needless to say, among the princes, the younger ones, like Xiao Cheng'er, were alright, but the others, having been influenced by their mothers, developed a competitive spirit early on, making it even harder for them to have genuine feelings for each other.

Langyue finally turned her head and sighed softly, "Get up."

Jingli quickly got up, but he was short of breath from crying and his legs were numb from kneeling. He lost his balance and was helped up by Langyue.

Langyue took the opportunity to pull him into her arms, removed her nail guards, and gently stroked his swollen cheek.

"Does it hurt?"

Her slightly furrowed brows and deep heartache softened Jingli's heart, and he yielded to his body's urge to lean on her, nestling into Langyue's arms.

"pain."

Langyue hugged Jingli: "Yesterday, Cheng'er left you crying, and today it's said that you kidnapped a child from the laundry department. If I don't give you a beating today, your father will have to question you himself tomorrow."

At this point, Langyue sighed heavily, and Jingli quickly patted her shoulder.

“Li’er knows, and Li’er doesn’t blame her mother.”

Langyue's anger completely dissipated at Jingli's tearful words, and she hugged Jingli tightly: "My son..."

From her unfinished words, Jingli sensed a deep sense of helplessness.

What exactly is causing her helplessness?

The details remain unknown.

But one thing is certain: Langyue is quite different from the others in this palace.

Jingli thought of the women trapped in the cave in the previous world, and he felt the same resilience in Langyue.

Fortunately—Jingli thought, his mother in this world was someone he could fight alongside.

After this farce, Jingli never mentioned finding Yu An to be her playmate again in front of Langyue.

He already knew Lang Yue's attitude.

Jingli secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He made the right bet on that risky move today.

[6058: Langyue has sent people to investigate Yu An.]

[Jingli: Yes, as long as his identity can be verified, finding him will be much easier later.]

The little bird 6058 poked its head forward, and Jingli felt as if something had moistened her cheeks.

[6058: The medication stored in the system is for pain relief and to alleviate the damage to the head caused by this blow. It will also make the head appear more swollen.]

The reason Lang Yue didn't hold back when he hit Jing Li was to make his face swell up, the worse the better.

In this way, Jingli's actions today can be overlooked in front of the emperor tomorrow.

Langyue was not the woman who indulged in favor as the original owner remembered. On the contrary, she was courageous, decisive, and knew when to advance and retreat.

Perhaps it was a case of mother and son being of one mind, but both of them chose to use arrogance and domineering behavior to conceal their selfish motives.

That night, Jingli did not go to the slave camp.

With this incident just happening today, Jingli is worried that there might be some spies among the slaves.

But he still sent Yu An some pastries and wrote her a letter.

"I have no choice but to do this today. Just wait, I will definitely take you out of this horde of slaves."

The invisibility cloak exists in the system as a card, which can also be used by 6058, the little bird.

Equipped with new gear, 6058, carrying pastries and a letter, spread its wings and disappeared into the night.

A moment later, 6058's voice rang out in the system.

[6058: He got it.]

[Jingli: Thank you, Mommy.]

Jingli felt the paper with writing on it burn to ashes and exhaled a breath of stale air.

A day in this world is harder to endure than in any other world before.
