Chapter 571 Aunt Bai Asks Tian Rong for Du Mingxian
Chapter 571 Aunt Bai Asks Tian Rong for Du Mingxian
"If you're getting married, you can't possibly take Mo with you when you go to the Prince Ming's residence, can you?"
Without even thinking, Tian Rong replied, "That's easy. Just keep him as a mistress outside. Anyway, Prince Ming has kept quite a few women outside. If he can do it, why can't I?"
Madam Tian was so angry she laughed. "Don't try to compare yourself to Prince Ming all the time. He's a man after all."
"Just because he's a man, he's right no matter what he does. That's so unfair."
“It has always been this way. I know you like Mo, but keeping him by your side now is not a wise decision.”
Tian Rong wanted to refute, but considering that Madam Tian had treated her well over the years and had given her a taste of maternal love, she said, "I will consider it, but whether or not I let Mo leave is my own decision."
"Alright, as long as you've thought it through, if you're still unwilling to let go, then keep him by your side. He's already been castrated anyway. If you still can't tolerate a eunuch prince, then you're rather narrow-minded."
Tian Rong nodded emphatically, agreeing with Madam Tian's words.
Madam Tian came over to offer some advice, but seeing Tian Rong's insistent attitude, she didn't say anything more and left directly.
Ten days after her injury, Tian Rong is in much better health.
That morning, right after breakfast, Tian Rong instructed, "Xiao Du, go and get ready. You'll be coming out with me in a little while."
"Yes."
Du Mingxian didn't know where Tian Rong was taking her, and she didn't have much to pack. All her important things were in her spatial storage, and the things she put outside were just for show.
Today, Tian Rong didn't bring Nan'er with her. The two of them went out and got into the carriage. Du Mingxian sat quietly in the carriage without looking around.
Tian Rong squinted slightly and didn't say anything.
The carriage hadn't gone far when it stopped in front of a teahouse. Du Mingxian got out of the carriage and was startled. This was the same teahouse where she had come with Mo last time to meet the Crown Prince.
No way, no way.
Tian Rong's people found out that she met the Crown Prince with Mo that day, so they specially brought her to this teahouse today.
Feeling a little flustered, thinking that if things went wrong, he could slip away at any moment, but on the surface he remained calm and followed Tian Rong into the teahouse.
The teahouse owner hurriedly came forward to greet her, "Miss has arrived."
Has the person I'm waiting for arrived?
"We are already waiting for you in the private room."
"it is good."
Du Mingxian's heart sank again. So it turns out this teahouse is owned by the Tian family?
No way, this teahouse doesn't seem to belong to the Tian family on the surface, but the manager and Tian Rong seem to know each other very well. Is it a business owned by the remnants of the previous dynasty?
Oh no, if that's really the case, and she meets the Crown Prince here, won't all these people be watching her?
So did Tian Rong know about her meeting with the Crown Prince?
She walked upstairs nervously to the innermost private room. She knocked twice on the door, and only went in after hearing a sound from inside.
Du Mingxian originally intended to stay at the door, but Tian Rong called her to come in together.
There was only one woman in the private room. Du Mingxian knew at a glance that this was Aunt Bai from last time, and it was probably this Aunt Bai who had hit Tian Rong.
"coming."
"Aunt Bai."
Aunt Bai's voice was calm, while Tian Rong's voice revealed a hint of nervousness.
Aunt Bai's eyes were fixed on Du Mingxian, scanning her up and down sharply before she finally spoke, "The maid behind you is coming with me today."
"Aunt Bai, this is my person, you can't take her away." Tian Rong was unhappy, why should Aunt Bai have everything?
Aunt Bai chuckled, "Why can't I take her away? She's the Crown Prince's woman. Are you sure keeping her by your side won't cause trouble?"
Du Mingxian looked shocked, her face turning pale, and she even took two steps back. After the performance, she simply lowered her head, as if she was at their mercy.
Aunt Bai was very satisfied with Du Mingxian's performance; it was good that she knew how to be afraid.
Tian Rong was very unwilling. She was the one who discovered this person, and now Aunt Bai was openly snatching him away from her, which clearly showed that she didn't take her seriously.
"No matter who Aunt Bai is, she is my maid now and should serve me."
"What can a pregnant woman do for you? It's safest to come with me."
"Aunt Bai, I disagree."
Aunt Bai snorted coldly and slammed her hand heavily on the table. "You don't agree? Then go back and tell your grandfather that my coming out this time was also his idea."
"Are you trying to intimidate me by using my grandfather?"
"So what? Look at the ridiculous things you've done. You're such a proper young lady, yet you insist on keeping this androgynous thing by your side. It's disgusting."
The last sentence directly enraged Tian Rong: "So what if I'm disgusted? That's my business. What does it have to do with you? You told me to go back and tell Grandpa. I'll go back and tell him myself. It's none of your business."
"You..." Aunt Bai didn't expect Tian Rong to be so rebellious.
Tian Rong turned to leave, not forgetting to call out to Du Mingxian, "Let's go."
Du Mingxian hurriedly followed Tian Rong away.
Tian Rong's expression was very bad in the carriage; she was furious and didn't say a word until they arrived at the mansion.
Anyway, everyone knows that Du Mingxian is the Crown Prince's person, and Du Mingxian hasn't said anything, tacitly accepting their understanding.
Upon arriving home, Tian Rong went straight to Mo's room, and soon heard commotion coming from inside.
Seeing this, Nan'er specifically sought out Du Mingxian, "Did something happen when you went out today?"
Du Mingxian hesitated and did not speak.
"Just say what you have to say." Nan'er was a little unhappy, and added, "Just say it."
He looked as if he wouldn't allow Du Mingxian to refuse.
"Aunt Bai wanted me to go with her, but Miss disagreed. Aunt Bai said that if Miss disagreed, then she should go directly to Miss's grandfather, and Miss brought me back."
"She really knows how to cause trouble." Nan'er looked like the sky had fallen, her brows furrowed tightly, and she was in a state of anxiety.
Du Mingxian was speechless. What trouble had she gotten herself into?
It's just that both sides now believe she's the Crown Prince's person, and seeing that she's heavily pregnant, they're willing to put themselves by their side and keep an eye on their unborn child.
A bunch of beasts in human form, none of them are good people.
Nan'er was annoyed to see Du Mingxian standing next to her. "Alright, you should go back to your room. I'll take care of Miss here."
"Okay." She was overjoyed at not having to serve anyone.
Besides, she likes eavesdropping at the door, but listening to someone in bed... she doesn't like that at all.
She's pregnant now, so you can't teach her this kind of thing during prenatal education.
Back in her room, she took her needle and thread into her spatial dimension to make little clothes for the child. She felt that things were changing too fast. Today, Aunt Bai actually wanted her. She should prepare some things in advance, in case things changed and she didn't have the chance to make little clothes for the child.
Judging from the way Aunt Bai and Tian Rong get along, Tian Rong will eventually have no choice but to compromise and let Aunt Bai take her away.
