The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 944 - 942: A Woman’s Heart

Late at night, within the Feiyan Palace.

The Imperial Physician had just left.

A beautiful woman in green clothes, with a red mole at the corner of her eye, was reprimanding Long Jin.

"You useless thing, I told you to befriend Long Xinzhuo, get close to the Princess, and gain some benefits. But you came back with vomiting and diarrhea, without gathering any information."

Consort Zhao looked dissatisfied.

"Mother Consort, I don’t know what’s wrong either. Everyone else is fine, but only I am vomiting and having diarrhea. I saw Long Xinzhuo, and he’s just fine. This proves that I am not poisoned. But I’ve already blended in with Long Xinzhuo and his group, so it will be easier to monitor them in the future."

Long Jin was covered in sweat, his complexion pale.

The Imperial Physician also said that he was not poisoned, just having stomach issues, and would only be able to drink some porridge for the next few days, and would still have diarrhea.

After hearing this, Consort Zhao’s expression improved a little.

"Ah, my son, it’s not that your Mother Consort doesn’t sympathize with you, but the current situation is very unfavorable for us. If you don’t perform well in this End of Year Assessment and seize a spot in the Little Eagle Chick Conference, I’m afraid we will be forever separated."

Consort Zhao wiped the corner of her eye, her face filled with worry.

"Mother Consort, what’s happening? Why must we be separated? I don’t want to be separated from you!"

Long Jin hurriedly struggled to get up when he heard this.

Just as Xin Lin had guessed earlier, this Eighth Prince Long Jin was not an ordinary child.

He has always been very tolerant in the palace, pretending to be obedient, but in fact, he has a personality just like his Mother Consort Zhao, sweet-talking but treacherous.

Consort Zhao is also two-faced, seeing Shi Pin returning to the palace with a little Xinzhuo and fearing for her status, she secretly poisoned, hoping to destroy Shi Pin’s appearance.

But who knew Shi Pin not only wasn’t disfigured, she became more beautiful, raising suspicion.

Later, with Xin Lin’s help, Shi Pin gained the Empress Dowager’s favor, became a concubine, and Little Xinzhuo also began to stand out in the palace.

Consort Zhao, filled with regret, went to make amends.

"You don’t know, as the end of the year approaches, just like in previous years, the Jun Country Fuzhou is to offer tributes to Longteng. This year, besides paying taxes, they must send a prince. Among your father’s several princes, there’s already a proposal to send you."

Consort Zhao had just received this news.

"I don’t want to go to Fuzhou! Mother Consort, I’ve heard that the people of Fuzhou are fierce, and every year many people die from brawls. If I go there, unfamiliar with the place, I will be beaten to death."

Long Jin, terrified, shivered, disregarding his weakness, and began to cry. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"Silly child, Mother Consort doesn’t want you to suffer in Fuzhou either. Therefore, Mother Consort will find a way to keep you here. As long as Long Xinzhuo goes to Fuzhou, you’ll be safe."

Consort Zhao thought long and hard, under Emperor Longteng, there are over a dozen princes.

The Crown Prince and Third Prince, born of Empress Feng, are absolutely impossible to send there.

If they send the princes from the nobles and talented ones without titles, Fuzhou wouldn’t agree either.

Thus, the choice of which prince to send as a hostage is very limited, making both Consort Zhao’s son Long Jin and the soon-to-be-promoted Shi Pin’s son Long Xinzhuo the most suitable choices.

"But Mother Consort, Father currently favors Long Xinzhuo very much. How could he agree to send Long Xinzhuo as a hostage?"

Long Jin was worried, not confident in winning over Long Xinzhuo in the End of Year Assessment.

"Don’t worry, Mother Consort has her ways."

Consort Zhao coaxed Long Jin to sleep, and only after nightfall, did she quietly slip away.
