My Princess Holds Superpowers-Chapter 640: He had ill intentions from the start

As soon as those words were spoken, Old Man Ye behind her lowered his head again.

He was nearly driven to death by the He Family, and the root cause was still his own decision to break off the engagement years ago.

"I understand, Mother," Ye Jiu did not take the people from the He Family to heart, but instead thought of Zhuzi’s mother.

Speaking of which, Zhuzi’s home was not far from theirs, just a little in front of their newly built residence.

Back then, when she saved Sikong Mo, she even took a fish to Zhuzi’s house to exchange for porridge with Zhuzi’s wife.

She just didn’t know why Zhuzi’s mother would say such things to the He clan, was it unintentional or on purpose?

If it were unintentional, it would be okay, but if it were intentional, knowing the identities of Prince Jing and his wife, then she probably had significant backing, and it was unclear whether it was targeting her or Prince Jing.

In an instant, Ye Jiu had already thought of many possibilities.

In the living room, once Princess Consort had sent Qin Zhou out to play on his own, she then spoke to persuade Prince Jing, "Husband, Jiujiu just talked back to you because he cares too much for his family, please don’t take it to heart."

God knows that when she uttered these words, it felt as if her heart was being sliced with a knife.

Clearly, she was Jiujiu’s mother, yet now she could only watch as her daughter affectionately called someone else mother, which made her feel even more bitter.

Prince Jing displayed an arrogant demeanor, "This prince has generous tolerance, why would I bicker with a young girl like her?"

Only that ignorant girl didn’t know better, when he got angry, she didn’t even think to say some kind words to soothe him, otherwise, wouldn’t all be forgiven?

Yet, her temper is even more volatile than his, he wondered where she got such confidence!

And now, she had even left him hanging here.

Ha, he was Prince Jing, who didn’t try to curry favor with him from a young age? When had he ever been treated this way before!

Seeing that Prince Jing was still being stubborn verbally, but was no longer blaming Ye Jiu, the Princess Consort felt relieved.

"Then, my husband, please sit here for a while; I’ll go look for Zhouzhou, that child is always so playful, let’s hope he doesn’t run too far off," said Princess Consort gently.

Prince Jing waved his hand, "Go ahead."

As Princess Consort walked into the courtyard, she immediately saw that Qin Zhou was squatting at the edge of the pond in the courtyard, seriously playing with something in his hands.

Princess Consort walked over and slowly reached out her hand, a sudden thought surged in her heart.

If... if Qin Zhou were to fall into the pond and drown now, wouldn’t she no longer have to exhaust her thoughts on how to make Qin Shi take his place?

This thought terrified her, even Princess Consort herself was scared.

Her hand drew nearer!

No, this couldn’t go on, such terrifying thoughts must not continue.

The child in front of her, though not her own biological child, was the one she had raised with her own hands.

Once, filled with guilt, she truly adored him.

Now, how could she lay a hand on this innocent child?

Suddenly, Princess Consort withdrew her hand that had almost touched Qin Zhou, then she clasped it tightly with her other hand, her whole body shaking violently.

"What is the Princess Consort doing?" Ye Jiu suddenly spoke, startling the Princess Consort.

Regaining her composure, she tried to control her shaking, "No... nothing, it was just too stuffy inside, so I came out to see Zhouzhou."

The Princess Consort felt uneasy inside, wondering if Jiujiu had seen her just now?

If she had seen, what would she think of her?

Ye Jiu’s gaze was heavy; if she wasn’t mistaken just now, the Princess Consort’s move was an attempt to push Qin Zhou.
