The villain prince is three and a half years old

[Birth mother: Xiao Yue (Zhaoyi)]

[Biological father: Ning Yuanqian (Emperor Kangning)]

[Residence: Jingyixuan-Main Hall]

[Prestige: 0]

[Corning Emperor's evaluation: Who are you?]

[Commentary from the government and the opposition: Who are you?]

Xia Jing moved his head, and the light curtain rotated, keeping it in the center of his vision. He closed his eyes, and in the darkness, the light curtain was still floating.

Xia Jing was overjoyed when he was sure that this was not his hallucination.

Although he is confident that he can survive in this world, who would complain about having too many cards up their sleeve?

He recalled the content of the game.

"Prince Development Plan", a simulation development game with a high degree of freedom, sold over one million copies in the first week of its release and became popular all over the world.

The game combines development, strategy, story, and romance elements. Players will control the tenth prince of the Ning Dynasty, arranging his daily life and education from birth, participating in various events, both large and small, and ultimately competing for the throne.

The game is large in size and offers a variety of gameplay options. Within the palace, you must dodge assassinations and compete for favor. In government and opposition, you must quell rebellions and tackle corruption. Beyond the borders, six other nations are eyeing your territory.

In his previous life, Xia Jing played the game for a week without sleep or food, and finally achieved the perfect ending, ascended the throne as emperor, and unified the seven kingdoms.

Maybe he was too excited, his eyes went dark when he stood up from the chair, and when he opened them again, he became this little kid.

Moreover, he did not become the controllable character the Tenth Prince, but the Ninth Prince!

In the game, the Ninth Prince only has a good-looking appearance, mediocre abilities, and poses no threat to the throne, but he is the trigger node of a large side quest.

When the Ninth Prince was five years old, the Queen plotted his assassination. Players can choose to step forward, tip off the enemy, or stand aside and watch.

If he had chosen to step forward, the assassination would have failed, and the Ninth Prince would have grown up safely and become a leisurely prince, devoting himself to hosting royal weddings and funerals.

If he chose to tip off, the assassination would be half successful, leaving the Ninth Prince disabled. While other princes were busy rebelling, he was busy having children, giving birth to more than a dozen grandchildren, making a great contribution to the continuation of the Ning family's bloodline.

There is no essential difference between these two items for players, and the important point is the third item.

If you choose to stand by and watch, oh no, the Ninth Prince will die, and the Ninth Prince's biological mother Xiao Yue will turn evil, fighting with concubines and the Queen. Within four years, she will be the mother of the country and become the big boss standing in the way of the players!

By the middle of the game, if the player fails to resolve the border war in time, Xiao Yue will take advantage of the dynasty's emptiness, smother the emperor, depose the prince, imprison the player, form alliances, and become the first female emperor of the Ning Dynasty!

During the seven days when Xia Jing neglected food and sleep, he spent three days competing with Xiao Yue in wits and courage, and successfully discovered an evil way of playing.

——While the Ninth Prince was still alive, he tried his best to improve the favorability of the mother and son. After the Ninth Prince's death, he took advantage of the opportunity, recognized Xiao Yue as his mother, clung to her and won without any effort!

However, this method can only guarantee the emperor's arrival, but it cannot achieve a perfect ending. After all, the Tenth Prince is not a biological child, and their relationship is limited. Xiao Yue is ruling from behind the scenes, and players cannot fully control the dynasty.

Now that he has become the ninth prince, Xiao Yue's biological child, perhaps he can achieve a true victory without any effort?

No, Xiao Yue is a big shot only after he turns evil, and the prerequisite for turning evil is that he must die!

Being an emperor wasn't all that easy. The Ning Dynasty seemed prosperous, but in reality, it was shaky and precarious. It was a matter of life and death, and once on the throne, one had to work tirelessly to prevent the country from being destroyed.

Not attending court for twenty years and hiding in the harem doing carpentry work is impossible.

It would be fine if it happened while playing the game, but the one who suffered was the Tenth Prince in the game. If it really became a reality and happened to him, how could it be compared with the indulgence in sensual pleasures and listening to music in brothels?

Let’s discuss this later. The current mid-term goal is to avoid the assassination attempt in two years, and the short-term goal is to resolve the threat posed by Concubine Rong!

We also have to go and take a look at the Tenth Prince. Without player control, I wonder what the Tenth Prince will become.

Chapter 4 I'm Just a Little Prince

Xia Jing's thoughts wandered to the game, and vivid characters flashed through his mind.

Among them are concubines, attendants, civil and military officials, and girls who can become princes' wives, as well as their colorful stories.

He finally thought of a father-in-law and an aunt.

These two people might be able to help him now, causing trouble for Rongpin and giving him support.

If there is trouble, Rongpin will not take action against them and their son in the short term. With time, he can develop peacefully.

As I was thinking about it, the sound of an argument came into my ears.

It was Yi Qiu and Nanny Jin arguing.

After beating Nanny Jin, Concubine Rong ordered two eunuchs to carry the half-dead Nanny Jin and leave her at the door of Jingyixuan.

As a Zhaoyi, Xiao Yue originally had four palace maids and four eunuchs. After she fell out of favor, several of them left one after another, and the Imperial Household Department kept dragging their feet and refused to replace them.

Now, there are only two palace maids and one eunuch by Xiao Yue's side, exactly the same as when she first entered the palace.

The three attendants were now gathered in the room.

Xia Jing looked at Yi Qiu, the palace maid he was most familiar with.

[Name: Yi Qiu]

【Age: 19】

[Identity: Palace Maid in the Main Hall of Jingyi Pavilion]

【Loyalty: 89】

Yi Qiu's loyalty is unquestionable, 89 is already extremely high.

He quickly glanced at the remaining two people.

The only eunuch is named Xiao Tianzi, he is 31 years old, loyal 53, an ordinary man, with no intention of harming his master, but don't expect him to help when something happens.

The only remaining palace maid is Nanny Jin, who is responsible for taking care of Xia Jing on weekdays and is deeply trusted by Xiao Yue until today.

[Name: Jin Erjie]

【Age: 52】

[Identity: Palace Maid in the Main Hall of Jingyi Pavilion]

【Loyalty: 3】

3!

Xia Jing knew that Nanny Jin's loyalty couldn't be high, so he was mentally prepared, but he was still shocked by this number!

Even on a 10-point scale, 3 points is extremely low, let alone a 100-point scale! She would sell out her master for glory without anyone trying to bribe her!

No wonder he completely disregarded his reputation in front of Concubine Rong!

She failed in her attempt to betray her master and was severely beaten. Her back was covered in blood. She lay on the ground, wailing and constantly repenting, begging Xiao Yue for forgiveness.

Xiao Yue turned her head away, unwilling to listen to her explanation.

Before this, Rongpin's two maids had told Nanny Jin's testimony in detail. If it weren't for Nanny Jin, her Jing'er would never have been wrongly accused!

Besides, my own Jing'er has always been well-behaved and never runs around! Nanny Jin said that Jing'er was missing for a while, but the truth is still in doubt.

Even if Jing'er was really lost for a while, Nanny Jin shouldn't have told everything, but should have helped Jing'er cover it up and come back to report!

Yi Qiu therefore scolded Nanny Jin for being a traitor and framing her master.

Nanny Jin was speechless and fell to the ground, kowtowing repeatedly.

"Master, please forgive me. Concubine Rong and the Eighth Prince arrested me for questioning. I dared not hide anything. I didn't expect that the young master would be suspected. I am stupid!"

Nanny Jin burst into tears: "I have watched the young master grow up, how could I harm him? Miss Yiqiu's suspicion is totally unreasonable!"

She cursed, slapped herself, and brought up the past when she took care of Xiao Yue and Xia Jing. Her expression was miserable and her words were sincere.

Xiao Yue couldn't help but waver, and even Yi Qiu was speechless.

Such acting skills were so confusing that even Xia Jing felt a little confused, not to mention the two inexperienced master and servant.

Fortunately, he still had the system and took another look at Nanny Jin.

【Loyalty: 1】

Wow, it dropped by 2 points!

We can’t let Nanny Jin stay in Jingyixuan. Concubine Rong is eyeing her covetously. If we keep her here, we’ll be handing a knife to Concubine Rong!

Thinking of this, he pretended to wake up and turned over.

The eyes of everyone in the room immediately fell on him.

Xiao Yue walked to the bed and held him in her arms.

In the game, Xiao Zhaoyi is not only highly skilled, but also has top-notch looks and figure.

Xia Jing was short, and sitting in Xiao Yue's arms, he became a support, with two huge mountains pressing on his head, heavy.

Although it is the children's responsibility to support their parents' burden, this burden comes too early. If he is often under pressure, he will not grow taller!

Leaning forward, getting rid of the burden, Xia Jing got down to work.

He opened his sleepy eyes and patrolled his territory like a squirrel.

When his eyes caught sight of Nanny Jin, they suddenly widened as if he had seen a poisonous snake or a vicious wolf.

He turned his head in fear, hugged Xiao Yue tightly, and buried his face deeply in the softness. The force was so great that it even hurt Xiao Yue.

Nanny Jin was stunned, her expression changing drastically. She didn't understand why the usually well-behaved and docile Ninth Prince would now be so ferocious towards her. But she knew that seeing the Ninth Prince so frightened, Xiao Yue would never let her stay!

Resentment could not help but show in her eyes.

Xiao Yue keenly caught the look in Nanny Jin's eyes and immediately realized that she was just pretending. She was so angry that she started coughing violently.

Xia Jing was startled. He had only tried to show off his acting skills a little, but he hadn't expected the effect to be so good. He hurriedly patted Xiao Yue on the back to comfort her.

Xiao Yue stared at Nanny Jin and gritted her teeth, saying, "Nanny, you have lofty ambitions. My small Jingyixuan can't accommodate you. Please report to the Silijian and go somewhere else."

This is a letter of resignation given to Nanny Jin.

In the imperial palace, it is not impossible for palace maids and eunuchs to move around. Nanny Jin was thinking of switching jobs to Rongpin's palace, so she didn't care about Xia Jing's life or death, and she just wanted to please Rongpin and the Eighth Prince.

But normal mobility is one thing, and being driven away by the master is another. Such slaves will hardly have the possibility of re-employment and will be expelled from the palace to fend for themselves!

"Master, please have mercy on me! Even if I have no merit, I have worked hard over the years! What's more, without me, who will take care of the master and the young master? Xiao Tianzi is stupid, and Miss Yi Qiu is eccentric. I have been living in fear all these years..." Nanny Jin's words became more and more unpleasant, and there was a threat in her words.

What she meant was that Xiao Yue Palace was supported by her, and without her as a nanny, Xiao Yue could forget about having a good life!

"Shut up and get out!" Yi Qiu stepped forward and kicked Nanny Jin over.

"Xiao Tianzi, drag her out and ask the Imperial Household Department to come and take her away!" Xiao Yue said sternly.

"Yes." Xiao Tianzi stepped forward and dragged Nanny Jin out of the house.

Yi Qiu was afraid that Xiao Tianzi couldn't handle it alone, so he followed him out.

There were only mother and son left in the house.

"Does it still hurt?" Xiao Yue hugged Xia Jing and touched his hand carefully.

"It won't hurt if mom holds me." Xia Jing shook his head and blurted out.

Xiao Yue was amused by him and touched his nose lovingly, but suddenly she felt sad and turned her head away, crying: "It's my mother who is useless."

Xia Jing wiped away her tears: "Mom is the best mom."

He really thought so. If it were any other mother, she would definitely not stand up for herself like Xiao Yue did.

He patted Xiao Yue's back, and his disgust for Rongpin deepened. There were many ways to deal with Rongpin, but few were quick and reliable. Fortunately, he was a young prince and could use the help of others.

Who wouldn’t like a well-behaved and sensible little prince?

Chapter 5 But He Smiled at Me

At noon, two eunuchs from the Imperial Household Department came and carried Nanny Jin away.

There were only two attendants left in Xiaoyue Palace, the palace maid Yi Qiu and the eunuch Xiao Tianzi.

Yi Qiu had to take care of Xiao Yue, so Xiao Tianzi became Xia Jing's follower.

Xiao Tianzi is not young anymore, at 31 years old, but he has not yet become Eunuch Tian. One reason is that he has bad luck and ended up under Xiao Yue. The other reason is that he is dull and weak and is not capable of doing anything important.

He was on the same level as Nanny Jin, but when Nanny Jin was around, she often ordered him around and took advantage of him.

Yes, Nanny Jin often takes advantage of her position to do inappropriate things to Xiao Tianzi!

In the harem, the loneliest people are not the concubines or the eunuchs, but the palace maids.
