Princess, she is the one who facilitated the extradition.

The Prince of Shu's Mansion.

The Princess Consort personally tidied up her eldest son's clothes, holding a pair of trousers with a ripped crotch in her hand, and said helplessly, "My son looks so refined, but he has a very active nature."

I don't know if he tore those pants while climbing a tree or scaling a wall; I just hope he won't be so mischievous in the future.

His mother was all alone and had to run a business, so she must have been very busy. She probably hoped that her child would be well-behaved and obedient.

Thinking of her son, whom she had raised for several years, who would be living with his biological mother in the future, and not knowing what his life would be like, the Princess Consort sighed heavily.

"Lvqiao, bring needles and thread, and tell the steward to make a few more sets of clothes for the young master."

The maid, Lüqiao, quickly threaded the needle and presented it to the Princess Consort, flattering her, "Young Master is full of energy; it's all thanks to Your Highness's excellent care."

"Our young master is so clever and quick-witted; he will surely grow up to be a man of extraordinary courage and wisdom, no ordinary person. Your Majesty, you can expect to enjoy the blessings bestowed upon you by him in the future."

later?

Although the child is old enough to remember things now, he is only six years old and his memory is limited. I don't know if he will remember his adoptive mother when he grows up.

The thought that he might completely forget her in the future made the princess feel sad, and in that moment of distraction, the needle pricked her finger.

"hiss!"

She gasped in pain.

Seeing this, Lü Qiao hurriedly said, "Oh dear, you're bleeding! Let me get you some medicine..."

"Everyone, get out."

Before he could finish speaking, the Prince of Shu strode into the room, waved away the servants, and put his bloodied finger in his mouth.

The princess sighed, "It's just a minor injury. I'm afraid the child won't remember us in the future."

Ji Linchuan sucked on her hand to make sure the bleeding had stopped before letting go of her hand.

"If you really can't bear to part with the child, I'll talk to Zhao Mingyue and ask her to let the child stay with us for a few more years."

"That won't do."

The princess shook her head. "This is too unfair and too cruel to her."

"But I can't bear to see you suffer."

Ji Linchuan put his arm around his wife's shoulder, his eyes flashing. "How about we take the kids to a mountain villa outside the city for a few days?"

If only the four of us spend some enjoyable time with him, perhaps he won't forget us so easily.

The Princess Consort was somewhat tempted, but, "If the child goes to school, won't Boss Zhao misunderstand? What if she wants to see the child these next few days..."

"Students can request leave from school."

Ji Linchuan spoke gently, "I'll go and beg Boss Zhao. We just can't bear to part with the child, and we'll take this opportunity to tell the child the truth. I think Boss Zhao won't object."

The princess hadn't figured out how to tell the child the truth, and going out to play was indeed an opportunity.

She finally nodded, "I'll tell him when I get home."

Let the child have fun for a few days first.

"I'll do whatever you say."

Ji Linchuan stood up. "Then you pack first. I'll go find Zhao Mingyue. We'll pick up the children from the school on our way out of the city."

"it is good."

The Princess Consort smiled gently, "What would you like to eat, my husband? I'll have someone prepare it at the manor in advance."

I like everything you like to eat.

Ji Linchuan turned to her and smiled, "Just prepare what you and the children like."

He stepped out of the room and glanced at Lü Qiao, who was guarding outside. Lü Qiao nodded and went inside.

She smiled and said, "Your Highness is so kind to you, I am truly happy for you."

The princess smiled, her eyes filled with joy, "Meeting him is my blessing."

Thinking of something, the joy in her eyes turned to sadness, "He's doing well too."

This sentence was spoken in a very low voice.

Green Fairy didn't hear clearly, her eyes darted around, and after a few more compliments, she said, "Young Master's favorite food is chicken nuggets with milk sauce. I'll have the kitchen prepare some, and we'll bring them to pick him up later. He'll surely be delighted."

The Princess Consort would not object to making her son happy, but little did she know that after walking around the kitchen, Lü Qiao entered Ji Linchuan's study.

As soon as Lü Qiao entered the room, Ji Linchuan whispered his instructions, "There is a magnolia tree in the village. Find a way to guide the young master to climb the tree and pick flowers for the Princess Consort."

He paused, then emphasized, "Climb the tallest tree and pick the very top flower."

Green Beauty was taken aback. "You mean...?"

She remembered the tallest magnolia tree in the village, which was two stories high. If she fell from it, she would probably die.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask; the future will not let you down."

Ji Linchuan's eyes were icy cold. "On the contrary, think about your fate."

Lü Qiao trembled and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, young master, Lü Qiao wouldn't dare."

If the Princess Consort knew, she would have betrayed her master long before the Princess Consort even got married. Even if the Princess Consort was kind, she would not have a good ending.

Ji Linchuan waved his hand, "Be smart, don't leave any traces."

If the child is claimed and taken away, the crime of deceiving the emperor will be suppressed, and the identity he painstakingly obtained will be completely ruined.

Moreover, once a person has a crack in their character, many things cannot withstand scrutiny. Before they have even truly done anything, some things must never be exposed.

Children are naturally mischievous, and Zhao Mingyue died while picking flowers for the Princess Consort, a death born of filial piety. She can't blame anyone else.

With the child dead, Zhao Mingyue's fight for the child becomes meaningless, and he can then suppress the child's true parentage.

As for that disappearance...

However, even the most powerful warlock cannot withstand an army of thousands; there is always a way to deal with it.

The most important thing right now is to take care of the children.

After giving instructions to his guards, he gave the mirror a gentle smile and went out to see Zhao Mingyue.

During the day, Zhao Mingyue had hired people to renovate the Zhao family home.

After Zhao's father passed away, only Bai Daya remained in the Zhao family. Bai Daya refused to marry for many years, citing her gratitude for Zhao's father's adoption and her obligation to observe mourning for him.

Zhao Mingyue was tied up with business and the Tong family, and rarely had time to return to her parents' home. As a result, the Zhao family house became the place where Bai Daya and Tong Qingyuan met secretly.

This made Zhao Mingyue feel extremely nauseous.

Now that she has returned to her ancestral home and found her child, she is thinking of renovating her house before taking the child back.

Upon hearing the purpose of the Prince of Shu's visit, Zhao Mingyue unconsciously tightened her grip on her handkerchief.

Logically, she shouldn't have stopped him, but Gui Yao said that the current Prince of Shu was not the real Prince of Shu.

Will he take his anger out on the children after his identity is exposed?

Seeing her silence, the Prince of Shu quickly said, "Don't worry, Boss Zhao, we just want to make the child happy and also find a suitable opportunity to tell him the truth."

Even if the child doesn't live with us in the future, as long as you agree, I will still treat him the same as before. Mr. Zhao, you can ask for anything.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mingyue relaxed somewhat.

She recalled the information she had gathered: the Prince of Shu's love for his wife and children had only intensified since four years ago.

In other words, the person who is actually better to her son is the one in front of her.

The Prince of Shu was not in a hurry. He continued talking about the child's preferences and even went to see the courtyard that Zhao Mingyue had prepared for the child.

Every word was written with the child's well-being in mind, offering many practical suggestions.

Seeing how much he loved the child, Zhao Mingyue was moved and agreed, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Her thanks were sincere.

The Prince of Shu raised his lips and said, "Boss Zhao, you don't need to be so polite. I'm doing this for the children."

He's got the makings of a perfect father.

Back at the Prince's residence, the Princess Consort was already prepared. He took the daughter from her arms, hoisted her onto his shoulders, and said, "Let's go pick up your brother."

He held the princess's hand with his other hand.

When he picked up his eldest son, he had two children, each sitting on one of his laps. He talked to them, played with them, and was very patient.

The princess consort felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey when she saw this scene.

This sweetness lasted until the next day.

Exhausted from taking care of her child, she had just returned to her room to rest when Gui Yao appeared in her room. "Princess Consort, do you know that Ji Linchuan is going to kill your eldest son?"

The princess's smile gradually cracked. "You... what did you say?"

"Ji Linchuan never intended to give the child to Zhao Mingyue. He came to the manor because the magnolia tree there was tall enough."

Gui Yao said, "Your eldest son will climb the tallest tree to pick flowers for you, and then fall to his death."

"impossible!"

The princess retorted sharply, but staggered as she grabbed the edge of the table, her knuckles turning white from the effort. "Why would he do that?"

The answer is in your heart; there's no need to ask me.

Gui Yao looked out the window and said, "As for that child, if you had been any later, it might have been too late to save him."

At the same time, Lü Qiao was holding the young master's hand and walking to the tallest magnolia tree.
