The woman's name is Xiao Yue, Xia Jing's biological mother, and the maid's name is Yi Qiu, Xiao Yue's maid.
Yi Qiu was impatient and questioned the two palace maids, "Do you two understand the rules? You took my prince away without even telling my master!"
She and Xiao Yue couldn't find Xia Jing, and the nanny who took care of Xia Jing was also missing. They were so anxious that they searched Jingyixuan thoroughly before they got the news and rushed over.
The palace maids came back to their senses from Xiao Yue's beauty, looked at each other, and saw amazement in each other's eyes.
I've heard that Concubine Xiao is a beauty who brings disaster. Seeing her today, I can see that her reputation is well-deserved. No wonder she gave birth to the exquisite Ninth Prince.
However, no matter how beautiful she was, she was just an unfavored Zhaoyi, and a sickly one at that. How could she be as noble as our own Concubine Rong!
All the admiration just now turned into jealousy.
Ignoring Yi Qiu's questioning, the palace maid raised the rosewood ruler and repeated Rongpin's instructions.
"...His Highness the Ninth Prince has received five strokes with the ruler, and there are still five more. We are just about to go to Jingyixuan to ask Consort Xiao to punish him. Consort Xiao has arrived just in time." The palace maid lowered her head, her movements respectful, her eyes contemptuous, and her words firm.
Yi Qiu realized that Xia Jing had been beaten, and quickly pushed his hand away. Sure enough, there was a red swelling left by the ruler. Her eyes immediately turned red.
"You are going too far!" Yi Qiu gritted her teeth and glared at the two palace maids.
The palace maid was fearless and held the rosewood ruler and handed it to Xiao Yue again.
"Please ask Xiao Zhaoyi to take action." They urged.
In their opinion, how could Xiao Yue, an unfavored Zhaoyi, dare to disobey Concubine Rong?
The Ninth Prince couldn't escape even a single blow from those five blows!
If Xiao Zhaoyi was sensible, she should be beaten severely to please Concubine Rong!
Thinking of this, the two glanced at Xia Jing, expecting to see the cute and well-behaved little prince crying.
Xia Jing was not at all flustered. She twisted her body and found a comfortable position in Yi Qiu's arms, squinting her eyes and enjoying it. Although Yi Qiu was not as beautiful as Xiao Yue, she was also a little beauty. She felt warm and fragrant in his arms, and it was very comfortable.
Just now he was worried about whether his adopted mother would hold him back. In ancient times, filial piety was highly valued, and the parent-child relationship was inescapable. Mother and child share the same fate, and if his mother turned out to be unreliable, his life would become much more difficult!
In history, not to mention the princes, many princes were implicated by their mothers and did not have a good end!
The moment he saw Xiao Yue, he was no longer worried.
This is the world of "Prince Development Plan," and Xiao Zhaoyi is the in-game Xiao Yue. In the game, only the Ninth Prince would hold Xiao Yue back, never the other way around.
He blinked, curious about how Xiao Yue would respond.
"How could such a thing happen? I'll see Sister Rong and punish her severely." Xiao Yue smiled gently, but there was no warmth in her eyes.
The two maids felt something was amiss, but didn't think much of it. They thought that although Xiao Zhaoyi was cowardly, she was sensible enough to show her loyalty in front of Concubine Rong.
The group returned to the house the same way they came, and saw Concubine Rong holding Ning Chengrui and feeding him cakes.
"Mother, they are here! Come on, teach them a lesson!" Ning Chengrui pointed at Xiao Yue and shouted excitedly.
Rongpin handed Ning Chengrui to the palace maid, straightened his clothes, and asked the maid to serve tea.
"No need to trouble you, sister. I will punish her and leave later." Xiao Yue took the ruler from the palace maid's hand.
Rongpin was stunned. She didn't expect that Xiao Zhaoyi was so sensible. Just like Ning Chengrui was stunned just now, Xia Jing admitted the charges.
Xia Jing admitted it in order to better refute it, and Xiao Yue pretended to be sensible in order to do the most unsensible thing!
There were three palace maids and two eunuchs beside Rongpin and Ning Chengrui, a total of seven pairs of eyes, staring at the ruler in Xiao Yue's hand, expecting it to be raised and lowered, bringing out crying and tears.
The ruler did fall, but not on Xia Jing's hand.
The hard rosewood was wrapped in cold air, stirring up a chill wind and hitting Rongpin's face hard!
"Ah!" Rongpin screamed and fell to the ground from the armchair.
Three palace maids, two eunuchs, and Ning Chengrui all stared with their eyes wide open, their minds blank, unable to believe the scene before them.
It was not until Rongpin screamed for the third time and was hit on the head three times by the rosewood ruler that they reacted!
Rebellion! Zhaoyi beat the concubine!
Ning Chengrui was so frightened that he burst into tears. The palace maids paid no attention to him and hurried to pull Xiao Zhaoyi away.
Xiao Yue turned her head, her peach blossom eyes glaring at their faces with an overbearing look: "Get lost!"
The palace maids and eunuchs were frightened by the imposing aura and did not dare to attack for a moment. Xiao Yue took this opportunity to hit Rongpin twice more.
Rongpin covered her head with her hands. The two blows only hit her arms. Xiao Yue felt that she was at a disadvantage, so she kicked her again.
"Pull them open quickly!" The head aunt in Rongpin's palace rushed over upon hearing the sound. She was horrified and called on the palace maids and eunuchs to rescue her own concubine.
"Mother!" Xia Jing was afraid that Xiao Yue would suffer, so he shouted and broke free from Yi Qiu's arms.
He was also a little stunned. In his impression, palace fighting was all about verbal sparring and frame-ups, just like what Rongpin had done to him. He had never expected that with Xiao Yue, it was so simple and back to nature!
He was afraid that Rongpin would retaliate and hurt his mother, so his first reaction was to run towards Rongpin.
Halfway through the run, he realized that he had overestimated Concubine Rong. That woman was just a show-off, arrogant only in words. She was beaten by her own mother and ran away in tears, not daring to fight back at all.
So he changed direction, pushed the crying Ning Chengrui away, stepped over him, and came in front of the palace maids and eunuchs.
Xia Jing pinched his legs hard to force out tears, pretending to be frightened. While crying, he pulled at the clothes of the palace maids and eunuchs to stop them.
The palace maids and eunuchs were afraid of hurting him and did not dare to use force.
The situation is different now than before. Without Rongpin's order, if the Ninth Prince gets hurt, they will not be able to escape responsibility!
The scene was very lively.
Rongpin was screaming, Xia Jing was howling, Ning Chengrui was crying—Xia Jing stepped on him several times. The palace maids and eunuchs were in a panic, and the room was in chaos!
"Master! You can't do this, you can't do this!" Yi Qiu ran anxiously to Xiao Yue and Rongpin and reached out to separate them.
However, she was weak and had little power, and she collapsed at the first touch when she tried to pull Xiao Yue. Instead, she accidentally blocked Rongpin's escape route and blocked the way for the palace maids who were trying to bypass Xia Jing to help.
By the time the palace maids finally pulled Xiao Yue away and formed a human wall to protect Rongpin, Xiao Yue had already hit Rongpin more than ten times and kicked her five or six times.
Xia Jing stepped over Ning Chengrui's hand, and threw herself into Xiao Yue's arms amid his sobs, also pretending to cry a few times.
He stole a glance at Rongpin, who was sitting on the ground, her hair disheveled and her spirit gone. Then he looked at Ning Chengrui, who was lying on the ground, clutching his fingers, tears and snot covering his face as he cried out in despair.
The mother and son defeated the strong with their weak strength and achieved remarkable results.
It’s a pity that Xiao Yue didn’t know the trick of pulling hair. His main attention was on the palace maids and eunuchs, and he forgot to step on Ning Chengrui’s vitals.
I haven't fought for a long time, so my hands are a little rusty.
In the far corner of the room, Nanny Jin, who betrayed Xia Jing, leaned against the wall, terrified, knowing that she was finished!
"Xiao Zhaoyi is so bold!" Rongpin's aunt in charge said sternly.
At this moment, Rongpin's six palace maids and twelve eunuchs gathered in the room, surrounding the master and his three servants.
The head aunt ordered them: "Stop Xiao..."
Before she could finish her words, Xiao Yue raised the ruler again and was about to swing it at Rongpin's head. Rongpin screamed and ran away. The aunt in charge also retreated and shouted at the palace maids and eunuchs to stop her.
The door was suddenly empty, Yi Qiu picked up Xia Jing, and fled with Xiao Yue.
The wind is blowing!
Nanny Jin was stunned for a moment and wanted to run out, but Rongpin's maids and eunuchs also reacted and two eunuchs held her down.
"Master, young master! Wait for me, old slave!" Nanny Jin shouted in despair.
Now he knows to ask for help from the master and the young master. When he sold out his master for fame and fortune before, causing Xia Jing to be wronged and almost bring disaster upon himself, did he ever think of the master and the young master?
The eunuchs found some cloth, stuffed it into Nanny Jin's mouth, and tied her up aside.
After a long time, Rongpin came to her senses.
The perpetrators had already left, so she couldn't send anyone to get it.
This matter was no longer something she could control. She was a concubine and didn't dare to attack Xiao Yue directly. Xiao Yue was just a Zhaoyi, how could she dare to attack her, a concubine!
She took a mirror to look at the red marks on her face, then lifted up her clothes to see the swelling on her body. The pain and shame turned into anger, which was suppressed in her chest and could not be vented.
Nanny Jin moved her body and tried to hide behind a pillar, but two eunuchs pulled her out and pressed her in front of Concubine Rong.
Rongpin picked up the vase beside her and smashed it down!
"Beat him! Beat him to death!" she shouted.
"And you!" She pointed at the two palace maids who led Xiao Yue in.
One of them was the one who reminded her to use the ruler.
If it weren't for these two palace maids, how could Xiao Yue come to the door, and how could she be in such a miserable state!
"Press it down! Slap him!" Her eyes were wide open and her expression was crazy.
The eunuch held down Nanny Jin and brought a long stick. The aunt in charge pulled the hair of the two palace maids and raised her hands.
The crying continued.
Chapter 3 Prince Development Plan
Xiao Yue's residence was called Jingyixuan, located in a corner of the harem, quite a distance away from Changqing Palace where Rongpin lived.
The master and servant were afraid that Rongpin would catch up, so they walked very fast. Xiao Yue was weak, and Yi Qiu had Xia Jing in his arms, so they were both out of breath.
Xia Jing lay in Yi Qiu's arms, her heart pounding.
As soon as he crossed over, he stepped on the prince and beat the concubines. Even in the historical novels of later generations, it is rare to see someone as arrogant as this!
He looked at Xiao Yue and Yi Qiu again. Even a modern man like himself felt that this was a bit outrageous, let alone the master and servant who had received Confucian education.
Judging from their panicked expressions, this was the first time they had done something like this.
Xia Jing thought that they were willing to do such a crime just to help him, and he felt warm in his heart, so he hugged Yi Qiu's neck tighter.
The girl interpreted his movements as fear and patted his back to comfort him: "Don't be afraid, young master. Even if His Majesty wants to punish you, it won't reach you."
"Don't worry, the trouble won't reach the emperor." Xiao Yue stopped and leaned against the wall to rest. "That bitch sent the maid to send Jing'er back, which means that there won't be any big trouble."
The physical exhaustion made Xiao Yue feel a little uncomfortable and she coughed softly. Yi Qiu patted her back again.
"That's good." Yi Qiu breathed a sigh of relief. "Indeed, the theft is definitely a fabrication. How dare Rongpin make such a big fuss?"
It's not that nothing happened. Xia Jing thought, Rongpin is a concubine after all. In the harem, those above the concubine belong to the leadership level, and those below the concubine are employees. Rongpin has many ways to discipline the mother and son.
We have to deal with Rongpin quickly!
After entering Jingyixuan, Yi Qiu took care of Xiao Yue and Xia Jing and helped them lie down, then went out and went to the Imperial Hospital.
Xia Jing had injuries on his hands, and Xiao Yue also had injuries on his hands - they used too much force when they hit Rongpin with the ruler and injured themselves.
Although Xiao Yue was not favored, the Imperial Hospital did not dare to neglect the Ninth Prince. Although the chances were extremely small, it was not impossible for the Ninth Prince to ascend the throne.
Even if he has no chance of becoming the emperor, if he becomes a powerful prince in the future, it will be easy for him to control the Imperial Medical Bureau.
The doctor sent by the Imperial Medical Bureau was an old doctor of marginal status but with superb medical skills.
Xia Jing's injuries were not serious, as the palace maid who hit him knew how to act. Xiao Yue's injuries were not serious either, as most of the injuries were on Concubine Rong.
The old doctor applied medicine on Xia Jing, and instructed Yi Qiu to apply ointment on Xiao Yue. He gave some instructions and left.
Xiao Yue lay down for a while, then sat up to drink tea. Yi Qiu waited beside her as they talked about what had just happened. They hadn't figured out the whole story yet, only that Rongpin had bullied their child.
Xia Jing didn't pay attention.
He lay in the quilt, facing inward, pretending to be asleep, staring blankly at the translucent light screen in front of him.
You successfully resolved the Eighth Prince's plot, but you've fallen out with Concubine Rong. You know she won't let you and your mother off.
[Task: Deal with Rongpin's difficulties]
Oh my god, the system panel!
Xia Jing didn't expect that not only did he travel to this world, but the game system also came with him!
But how to operate this panel? He doesn’t have a mouse!
As soon as he thought about it, the light screen disappeared and a new panel appeared. It was actually controlled by thoughts!
[Name: Ningxia Jing]
Age: Three years old
[Identity: Ninth Prince of the Ning Dynasty]
[Title: None]
