“Mother! I don’t know what His Highness means.” In Duke An Manor, the second daughter-in-law suddenly cried and instantly roused King Xiaoyao from his scattered thoughts.
At this moment, there was a private seal of King Xiaoyao lying on the ground.
Such a thing was only available in King Xiaoyao’s estate. The small words printed on it were even the identity of a prince.
It was the seal of a prince that had not been officially conferred.
King Xiaoyao sneered. “1 don’t know when the title of King Xiaoyao was inherited by a piece of trash!”
The daughter-in-law’s face turned pale. “Your Highness, what is this? I… I’ve never seen it before.”
“Is that so? But this was found on your precious son, Little Feng. Not only that, there’s more than one Prince Seal in his room!”
“Ridiculous!” The old duke was so angry that he was trembling. “Second Daughter-in-law, tell me yourself, what’s going on!”
What could she say?
Could it be that she could still say that they had actually been coveting the title of King Xiaoyao all along?
One had to know that King Xiaoyao is the son of the Old Duke’s daughter who is the favored concubine of the late Emperor.
Now, King Xiaoyao is living with his mother in Duke An Manor. It was not that the King Xiaoyao Estate was not comfortable to live in, but rather to accommodate the present situation.
For this, King Xiaoyao had given the old Duke a lot of benefits. He had never been a bad help to Duke An Manor.
However, King Xiaoyao didn’t have any wives, nor did he have any concubines. Now, he was in his thirties and didn’t have any descendants.
What about Duke An?
He had several wives, concubines, and a bunch of children.
There were already three sons from the main line of descent. Not to mention, his eldest son is currently serving as a lecturer in the Imperial Academy. He has formed connections with numerous scholars and virtuous individuals. It won’t be long before he inherits the title of Duke from his father.
His second son simply followed King Xiaoyao around to scavenge for opportunities behind him. Now, he had also become a merchant covered in a copper stench. However, he at least made it to the rank of a second-grade Assistant Minister of Revenue.
As for her husband, he is in a difficult position. Despite receiving imperial favor in the past, he has held a minor official position for over a decade and currently only holds the rank of a fifth-grade Official in the Ministry of Rites.
There was too many boats chasing too few fish at home, so there was nothing to share. However, for some reason, her father-in-law still brought back a grandson from outside.
Not only did her mother-in-law dote on this new grandson, but she also heard that the two old fools actually wanted to send him to the Imperial College to study.
There were only two spots for the grandchildren to enter the Imperial College. One was taken away by the eldest grandson, and the remaining was given to this bastard child of unknown origin.
If she didn’t make plans for her Little Feng now, how long would she have to wait?
“Second Daughter-in-law, are you not listening to me now!” The old Duke was angry.
She replied reluctantly, “1 just saw that His Highness was living alone, so 1 wanted Little Feng to serve His Highness in the future—”
King Xiaoyao smiled faintly. “Alone? Are you pitying me for being a cripple and wanting to take care of me for life?”
These words were heartbreaking. The second daughter-in-law didn’t dare to accept them.
Before he could finish reprimanding her, Eunuch Xi arrived.
Seeing Eunuch Xi come knocking on his door, Duke An was even stunned.
Eunuch Xi is a very important eunuch by the Emperor’s side. Emperor Minghua specially gave him the name “Xi” because he was usually sent to report only the good news.
When everyone saw that Eunuch Xi had arrived at Duke An Manor, they all came to look, wanting to see what reward Duke An Manor had obtained.
Eunuch Xi stood at the entrance of Duke An Manor with his back facing the crowd and read Emperor Minghua’s imperial decree loudly.
As soon as they heard the contents of the imperial decree, the expressions of everyone in Duke An Manor and the others completely changed.
He was actually here to scold them for not teaching their children well!
The second daughter-in-law completely collapsed to the ground.
Everything is over. Little Feng was finished, and so was she.
After dealing with this pile of troublesome matters, King Xiaoyao quickly left Duke An Manor. He wanted to visit the Wang Family.
Although the past few times, he had been locked outside their door and couldn’t even cross the threshold.
Just like that, the commotion at Duke An Manor stopped and Little Feng could no longer jump around. No one cared what would happen to him after he lost his hands.
After everyone laughed at Duke An Manor, they went back to their own lives.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the rankings.
Early in the morning, gongs and drums were beaten at the entrance of the Wang Family’s new courtyard. A group of people came over excitedly.
Ah Yu hurriedly pulled Qin Huai over to take a look.
Qin Huai yawned.
The reason was that the night before, All Yu was afraid that Qin Huai would be nervous, so she asked him to use his lightness technique to bring her out of the city to look at the stars and return the same way.
Because of this late-night excursion, he had only slept for two hours and was really tired.
Looking at Ah Yu, she seemed extremely excited. She was still holding the brocade bag she had obtained from the Civil Star Temple and was muttering.
When he listened carefully, he heard, “He has to be the top student. But it doesn’t matter if he can’t win. It’s fine…”
Qin Huai:”…”
Who was the one who was nervous?
