491 Grandfather and Grandsons Meet (2)


    The Prince Consort lifted the curtain and looked ahead. About a hundred feet away were two majestic manors. One was the East Manor, and the other was the West Manor. The back door at the end of this road was the West Manor.


    “Why did youe to the West Manor?” The Prince Consort said.


    The coachman was stunned. “Are you going to the East Manor?”


    Uh… you didn’t say anything either! Our Little Commandery Princess doesn’t have much contact with the East Manor. Instead, she’s very close to Helian Yu and Young Master Helian Cheng from the West Manor! The coachman muttered in his heart, but he did not dare to push the me away. He quickly grabbed the reins and turned around. “I misunderstood. The East Manor is quite close. We’ll go back and pass through that small alley! Are we… going to the back door?”


    !!


    He did not understand. Why did the Prince Consort use the back door instead of the front door when he came to the Helian Manor? It was not like he was doing anything shameful! The coachman drove the carriage with his strange thoughts to the back door of the Helian East Manor.


    However, at this moment, something even more puzzling happened.


    “Wait, stop here,” the Prince Consort said.


    The coachman looked at the back door of the Helian East Manor, which was dozens of steps away from the carriage, and asked in confusion, “Isn’t it a little far? Are you just going to walk there?”


    “No,” the Prince Consort said.


    N-no? What kind of operation was this? Master rushed over from the Queen Manor just to stand outside the back door of the Helian Manor?


    The coachman suspected that he had heard wrongly. He tilted his body slightly and lifted a gap in the curtain to peek at his master. He saw him turn to look at the back door of the Helian Manor outside the window, looking deep in thought.


    The coachman thought for a while but did not say anything in the end.


    The master and servant sat in the carriage just like that. Fortunately, no one passed by the back door of the Helian Manor. Otherwise, people would definitely treat them as evil thieves if they stared at them like this.


    He did not understand. Why did the Prince Consorte to the Helian Manor for no reason? And he did not dare to enter? However… The Helian family did not have a good rtionship with the Queen Manor.


    The heads of the Helian family had only been loyal to the Emperor, and although the Queen was the Crown Princess, she was someone the Helian family had to avoid. Of course, this was one of the reasons. The second reason was that it went back more than thirty years.


    The Empress and Consort Yun were pregnant, and the two Princesses were conferred with the fate of blessings and disasters one after another. Old Master Helian thought that this was nonsense and had once written a letter to ask for a heavy punishment for those who deceived the public. The Emperor naturally did not punish them. After the two Princesses were born, the Emperor sent the Cmity Star Princess out of Nanzhao. This matter had also been strongly opposed by Old Master Helian.


    The child was innocent, what wrong did she do? To put it bluntly, these things were none other than the duty of a ruler to shoulder the worries of a ruler. However, in the eyes of those with ulterior motives, it could not help but be that the Helian family was biased towards Consort Yun and her daughter. In the end, the Empress and the Little Princess’s rtionship with the Helian family faded.


    So why was his Prince Consort hiding sneakily outside the back door of the Helian Manor? Did he want to catch the Helian family’s weakness?


    Wutong Courtyard.


    Today was the third day Xiaobao lost favor. In these three days, Xiaobao had struggled, worked hard, and resisted, but he was inferior to Er’bao in every aspect! Er’bao spoketer than him, but he said better and more than him.


    “Little good great-grandson, what is this?” The old madam picked up a stick of candied hawthorn and asked.


    “Candied hawthorn!” Xiaobao puffed up his chest.


    “Shiny candied hawthorn,” Er’bao said adorably.


    Xiaobao was instantly K.O.!


    The old madam hugged her obedient great-grandchildren. Xiaobao wrapped his little hands around the old madam’s neck and said coquettishly, “I like Great-Grandma!”


    The old madam felt sweet in her heart. “Aiyo, Great-Grandma’s Xiaobao! Great-Grandma likes you too!”


    Er’bao let go and climbed down from the olddy’sp. He said obediently, “We’re heavy. Don’t carry us, Great-Grandma. It’s tiring.”


    The old madam’s heart was about to melt. “Aiyo, my Er’bao feels sorry for Great-Grandma!”


    Xiaobao was… K.O.ed again!


    The old madam put down Xiaobao and hugged the silent Dabao. “Since your brothers have spoken, why hasn’t our Dabao said anything?”


    Xiaobao said proudly, “He’s stupid! I’m smart!”


    Er’bao said softly, “Brother is not stupid. He speak in a few days.”


    As Er’bao finished speaking sensibly, he even touched Dabao’s face, showing their brotherly love. Xiaobao stuck out his tongue and rolled his eyes! That day, Er’bao received the most praise and encouragement. Xiaobao… Xiaobao scolded his brother for being stupid and received a knock on the head from his father.


    “I can’t stay in this house anymore! You can live with whoever you want! I’m leaving!” A certain steward’s wife in the back room caught her man stealing wine again and had a big argument with him. She packed her bag and left angrily.


    Xiaobao, who had identally bumped into this scene, deeply felt that he had been taught a lesson. Xiaobao stood under the sky and stared fixedly at the sky. After a while, he made a painful decision.


    He returned to his room and climbed into bed on a small stool. He grabbed the small bag his mother had sewn for him and opened his wardrobe to find two sets of his little clothes. Other than that, he also found his toys and his little milk bottle and stuffed them all into the small bag.


    He pulled the mouth of the small bag close. He went to the courtyard and found a tree branch. He forked the small bag and carried it on his small shoulder.


    You don’t like Xiaobao. Xiaobao is leaving home. Hmph!


    Xiaobao carried his small bag and went towards the back door.


    “Prince Consort, it’s gettingte. Let’s go back. Her Highness will be anxious when she can’t find you.” In the outer carriage, the coachman said earnestly.


    “Wait a little longer,” the Prince Consort said.


    The coachman asked in a daze, “Are you waiting for someone? Why don’t I go up and ask?”


    The Prince Consort paused and lowered his eyes. “There’s no need. Let’s go back.”


    “Aye!” The coachman stretched his muscles, tightened his grip on the reins, and whipped down. “Giddy up!”


    The horse was in pain and raised its hooves to run. It was a long detour on the way back. They went straight past the back door of the Helian Manor and turned right at the end. It was a shortcut. However, no one expected a child to suddenly rush out of the back door. It was toote for the coachman to tighten the reins. The child fell to the ground and the carriage drove past.


    “Aiya!” The coachman stopped the carriage with all his might. He jumped off the carriage and went back to look for the child. He saw a fat little ck egg lying on the ground with its legs spread out. He was frightened and thought that he had killed someone. “P-P-P-Prince—”


    The Prince Consort came over.


    The Prince Consort squatted down and frowned. “Shut up!”


    These words were directed at the coachman. The coachman quickly covered his mouth and swallowed his voice. Then, the coachman heard an unbelievablemotion.


    “Hu ~ Hu ~ Hu ~” It came from the little ck egg’s nose.


    Uh… This beautiful snoring… So this child wasn’t dead. He was just asleep? What kind of immortal child was this…


    This was the first time Xiaobao had left home in his life. How could he know that the sky outside was so vast? He was exhausted from walking and even yawned, but he had yet to reach the end of the world. In the end, he fell to the ground and fell asleep.


    The coachman broke out in cold sweat. “He scared me to death!”


    The Prince Consort picked up the little ck egg on the ground. The moment his little body entered his arms, his heart seemed to soften. He looked at the face in his arms. Although it was dark, his facial features were too exquisite and there was a hint of familiarity.


    “Prince Consort, Prince Consort, what’s wrong?” The coachman felt that the Prince Consort had suddenly be strange.


    “Cong… Cong …” The Prince Consort had a headache, as if something had split his head open.


    The coachman listened for a long time. “Insects? Are there insects? Where?” [Insects in Chinese are also called Cong.]


    “Cong’er.” The Prince Consort hugged the child in his arms tightly.
