The Valued Lady is Truly Dominant

Chapter 486: Chapter 486 Recruiting

Everyone was momentarily stunned by Prince Zhou’s actions, each secretly pondering in their hearts.

Song Ci almost wanted to flip the table.

Damn it, can’t you understand human language with my hints?

Bai Qianqian stared at that Jade Pendant, then looked at Song Ruwei, her eyes like they were poisoned, as if she wanted to tear this little vixen apart.

Song Ruwei was still a child. Having been under the tutelage of Madam Lu for many years, she had learned a bit of reading people’s expressions. When she saw the look in Bai Qianqian’s eyes, she was so scared that she hid behind Song Ci.

Taking the Jade Pendant, that’s not going to happen.

Prince Zhou’s hand, holding the Jade Pendant, stiffened a bit, but Song Ci took it, laughing, ”Prince, being the elder you are so generous. This child is timid, so I accept it on her behalf. Many thanks for the gift, Prince.”

Song Ci accepting it is quite different from Song Ruwei accepting it.

Prince Zhou couldn’t help but say, ”Madam, privately you and the Empress Dowager call each other sisters, and I am of the same generation as Wei’er, her peer.”

Damn, you stud, you have an Official Wife and concubines, and now you’re eyeing someone else’s girl?

Song Ci replied: ”Even if you’re of the same generation, you’re still a few years older, so being a senior, it’s the same.” Then she looked at Bai Qianqian, saying: ”Consort Bai, you seem to be enjoying a joyous occasion, congratulations, are you three months along?”

Everyone: ”...”

Just now you said she’s careless to be running around without proper care, and now you say three months, you’re doing this on purpose?

Song Ci was indeed doing it on purpose.

Bai Qianqian touched her belly and said coyly, ”Madam, you’re joking, it’s not three months, I just entered the house in the first month, and it’s only been a little over a month.”

”Ah, my old mind isn’t working well, I forgot. Seeing how you’re dressed, I thought you’d been pregnant for three months.” Song Ci laughed while looking at Prince Zhou and said, ”Prince, the Empress Dowager can’t wait to hold a great-grandchild. Even if you dote on Consort Bai, be careful, the child is the most important, they need protection.”

”Madam, are you cursing me?” Bai Qianqian blurted out angrily.

Madam Bai’s face changed drastically, and she gave her daughter a tug.

Prince Zhou’s face also changed, and he glanced over with a warning look. Bai Qianqian’s heart trembled, and she said, ”I, Prince, I’m just nervous about the child.”

”Alright, Madam is naturally also concerned about the child. What’s been said?” Prince Zhou said gently, ”You mentioned missing your family, so I accompanied you home to see them. Now that your mother is also here, stay at home and rest, I’ll come to pick you up in the afternoon.”

Bai Qianqian felt wronged, but she dared not defy him and could only nod obediently.

Prince Zhou bid farewell to everyone with a slight smile and walked out with Bai Qianqian accompanying him. He looked inside and warned in a low voice, ”Since you’ve invited them, treat them as honored guests, especially Madam Song, do not make her unhappy, do you understand?”

”Prince...”

”Madam Song is even at times respected as aunt by the Emperor,” Prince Zhou squinted and said, ”The Emperor’s favor is more important than anything. Be sensible; I will respect you, and then you can rise to a respected position, understand?”

Now, he and a few royal brothers were in a game, all wanting to win over the influential ministers. Sometimes, winning them over isn’t just a man’s task; women can do it too.

Bai Qianqian lowered her head under his gaze and said softly, ”Prince, I understand.”

Prince Zhou was satisfied with her response, smiled as he patted her hand, and said, ”Good, wait for my return to pick you up.”

”Mm.”

Prince Zhou left, and just as he went out the door, he learned from the reports of his trusted subordinate of the stupid thing that Madam Bai had done, which caused him to pause in boarding the carriage.

”What an idiot.”

Is that woman stupid enough to dare to slight Prime Minister Song’s mother?

Madam Bai sneezed, feeling her ears burning as she was about to show a smile to Song Ci.

Song Ci, however, said, ”Ah, I’ve had the tea and admired the flowers; it’s time to go home. Madam Bai, thank you for inviting me over; today I truly saw some wonderful flowers.”

Madam Bai was stunned, leaving so soon?
