Chapter 301: Chapter 302: Do You Want to Move In? Chapter 301: Chapter 302: Do You Want to Move In? Shao He suddenly leaned in and asked curiously, “The Empress Dowager is returning to the capital? What’s the situation?”
With a look from Pei Huaian, Ah Mo explained from outside the door, “The Empress Dowager has been praying at Cien Temple. Now, with The Emperor’s birthday approaching, she will surely start her journey back to the capital. This is also a good opportunity for the Fourth Prince.”
“A good opportunity? You mean, the Fourth Prince will seek an imperial edict to grant a marriage at that time? What if Princess Ninghe does not agree?” Shao He felt that this plan was not very reliable.
“Exactly, as long as Prince Jing agrees and the Empress Dowager decrees the marriage, Princess Ninghe will have no room to maneuver.”
“Why is that?”
Shao He didn’t understand why he was so certain. What if Princess Ninghe threatened to kill herself?
“The Empress Dowager had some conflicts with Princess Consort Jing and does not wish to see Princess Ninghe fare well. Knowing that her heart is set on marrying me, and since Pei Jingyi is good at pleasing others, the Empress Dowager will definitely agree to this. Just handle Prince Jing, and it will be considered done,” Pei Huaian said, his eyebrows raising and a firm glint shining in his eyes.
Princess Ninghe is indeed a big trouble. If she could be pushed to Pei Jingyi’s side, it would naturally be better, thus she would no longer involve himself.
Upon hearing this, Shao He showed no signs of joy but instead expressed his concern with a worried face, “I’m not worried about Princess Ninghe’s desperation affecting me, but I’m afraid she might harm the child.”
Ah Mo chimed in from the side, “Indeed, master, Princess Ninghe has the temperament to do such things.”
He thought Doctor Shao’s words were not mistaken. Princess Ninghe, although beautiful, was extremely ruthless at heart. Once, just because a woman accidentally bumped into her,
she caused her to miscarry, and afterwards, she didn’t even allow any doctors to treat the woman, who eventually died from excessive bleeding.
Pei Huaian frowned, muttering softly, “This is indeed tricky; if she really harms the child, I…”
A fierce look flashed in his eyes.
Seeing this, Ah Mo quickly advised, “Master, we should not confront Prince Jing head-on for now.”
Upon hearing this, Shao He’s lips twitched twice, and he shook his head reluctantly, “What I mean is, can we assign more people to protect Xiao Linzhang?”
Pei Huaian’s eyes flickered with shrewdness as he spoke deeply, “Princess Ninghe has Hidden Guards from the prince’s mansion, skilled in martial arts, not just some random guards that can be compared. If you both stay in the residence any longer, I’m indeed a bit worried.”
“How about you move into my mansion? The security here is strict, and I can also assign more Hidden Guards to protect you. Otherwise, if I send people to guard your manor, it might arouse suspicion.”
Pei Huaian’s tense breathing slowed, and his eyes intensely fixed on the person with lowered gaze.
Shao He looked up, saw his expectant gaze, and finally nodded. Although she knew he had ulterior motives, she had to admit that this was indeed safer.
“Ah Mo,” Pei Huaian raised his head to look at Ah Mo and softly called out.
Ah Mo was momentarily stunned, then understanding, immediately smiled obsequiously, “Your subordinate understands your meaning, master. I will assign some of the most skilled Hidden Guards to guard Doctor Shao and the young master’s residence; even anyone entering or leaving will be thoroughly inspected.”
After Ah Mo spoke, he glanced at Shao He, who nodded slightly, allowing him to relax.
Pei Huaian then nodded satisfactorily, instructing Ah Mo, “You are in charge of this, remember, there must be no mistakes, otherwise I will hold you accountable.”
Ah Mo, drenched in cold sweat, hurriedly responded, “Your subordinate obeys, I dare not slack off.”
Pei Huaian continued to instruct, “Go call the steward here.”
“Yes.”
Ah Mo quickly brought the steward, and Steward Zhang bowed, “Your Highness, what orders do you have?”
“Go and clean up the adjacent courtyard; use the best items in the room, and also change the tables, chairs, porcelain, and tea sets to the newest and best,” Pei Huaian ordered assertively, displaying his financial power.
“Yes,” Steward Zhang responded.
Shao He frowned, disapprovingly said, “Too extravagant, there’s no need to spend so much silver. As long as the room is clean, there is no need for such extravagance and waste.”
Pei Huaian glared at Shao He, his tone firm, “That’s not acceptable. You and the child must stay somewhere more comfortable.”
Turning back to Steward Zhang, Pei Huaian continued, “Also, move the carved step-bed from the prince’s mansion here and replace it with the softest and most comfortable brocade quilt.”
Steward Zhang hesitated, looking up puzzled, “Your Highness, what does this mean?”
With a faint smile on his lips and a dangerous glint in his eyes, Pei Huaian’s voice was icy, “You don’t need to ask; just follow my orders.”
Bowing his head, Steward Zhang respectfully said, “Yes, this servant will prepare immediately.”
“Wait,”
Unable to bear listening any further, Shao He called out to the departing steward, “You don’t need to move the bed; just tidy up a bit more.”
Steward Zhang looked at the woman who spoke and the child in the Fifth Prince’s hands, momentarily confused about her identity, and dared not speak out of turn, only seeking help with his eyes from Ah Mo.
The latter shook his head at him, signaling him to stay silent for now.
