The Herbal Scents of Farm Life-Chapter 2085: Extremely Petty

Since they had married her off to Prince Niu for the sake of their family, what was a little more sacrifice today for her son to secure his position in Prince Niu’s Mansion as its heir?

"Baiqing, tomorrow you and your mother should visit your maternal grandfather—once you’re there, whatever you want, your grandfather will give to you." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

She lowered her head, speaking to her son.

Upon hearing this, Yin Baiqing’s eyes lit up.

"Really?"

But the next moment, his eyes dimmed again.

"Mother, I remember Grandfather being extremely stingy. Can he really give anything to Baiqing?"

His memory of his grandfather was clear. He always used to come every three to five days to Prince Niu’s Mansion, to seek favors from his mother, making her life difficult in front of the Emperor Grandfather.

How could such a person have anything precious to give him? Hopefully, he wouldn’t end up taking something from him, instead.

"Baiqing, mind your words."

Hearing Yin Baiqing’s blunt words, Lin Caisang couldn’t help but shut her mouth and raised her hand to massage her brow, reminding him.

Sometimes she couldn’t help but wonder, how much of Jiang Zuo’s bad habits had this child picked up to speak so bluntly?

"Ah?"

Yin Baiqing seemed not to realize what he had said. Hearing Lin Caisang’s voice, he turned his head, looking at her confusedly.

In a short while, he came to his senses, then clapped his hands together and turned to look at Princess Consort Niu.

"Ah, right, Mother, we’ve been on the road, and Sister Sangsang hasn’t eaten yet. Please have someone prepare some food for us; Sister Sangsang must be hungry."

Princess Consort Niu: "..."

This child, really showing no traces of his former self, whether that was good or bad, she couldn’t tell.

But after all, he was her child; naturally, she wanted to treat him well.

"Alright, I will have someone arrange that right now." She nodded in agreement.

Saying this, she called the nanny to come in and ordered her to prepare the midday meal.

"Princess Consort Niu, did you say earlier that you are taking Baiqing to see his maternal grandfather?"

After the nanny had left, Sui Zimo finally spoke up.

"Yes," Princess Consort Niu nodded without much thought.

"The fact that Baiqing could come back is a great joy; after meeting Emperor Grandfather this afternoon, it’s only proper to take him to see his grandfather too, and the mansion will also host a banquet; this too needs to be arranged."

Her son coming back was a joy beyond measure; she wished that all of Ziyan Kingdom could know—how could this be wrong?

But why did she feel that Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang’s expressions were a bit off?

"Is there anything wrong?" she asked.

"Princess Consort Niu, have you considered why Yin Lvqing would kidnap Baiqing and hide him in the barren lands?" Lin Caisang looked at Princess Consort Niu, reminding her.

"This..."

Princess Consort Niu was stunned by her question but quickly responded.

"It must be because Baiqing has been adored by Emperor Grandfather since birth. Among the many princes, none were as valued by the Emperor as Baiqing, not even Baiqing’s father.

Eighth Prince must fear that the Emperor might pass the throne to Baiqing in the future."

In the Illusion Continent, the throne is actually not very important as it is a world where might is right.

However, for the royal family, the throne is critically important—what prince doesn’t aspire to that supreme position?
