Lin Jiabao was bored to death in Pingle Park. However, he was well-behaved and wouldn't argue with Xuanyuan Hancheng about going out.

Lin Jiabao knew that Xuanyuan Hancheng was doing this for his own good. He was worried about him and didn't want him to go out. Therefore, he could only obediently practice calligraphy and painting in Pingle Park.

On the xuan paper, a few koi fish were drawn very vividly. Lin Jiabao was very talented in painting.

His paintings always had some spiritual energy, and he received great praise from Teacher Qiu.

Xuanyuan Hancheng specially ordered people to dig a small artificial pond in Pingle Park. He raised a few koi fish for Jia Bao to paint and play with.

When Xuanyuan Hancheng entered the courtyard, he saw his darling painting seriously under the shade of a tree. He didn't disturb him and just stood to the side and watched. In his mind, his darling was as beautiful as a painting.

Lin Jiabao was so engrossed in painting that he didn't notice that Xuanyuan Hancheng had already come to his side.

When Lin Jiabao finished painting, he put down his brush.

When he turned around, he saw Xuanyuan Hancheng standing beside him and looking at him gently.

Lin Jiabao bowed slightly to Xuanyuan Hancheng. "Your Highness, you're back."

When Lin Jiabao woke up from his afternoon nap and didn't see Xuanyuan Hancheng, he knew that he must have gone to deal with government affairs. He could only draw to relieve his boredom.

"Guai Bao, are you feeling bored?" Xuanyuan Hancheng hugged Jia Bao and whispered in his ear.

Xuanyuan Hancheng knew that his darling must have been bored out of his mind these past few days.

"It's okay. I like to paint …" Lin Jiabao knew that the Crown Prince was very busy and couldn't accompany him all the time.

"Guai Bao draws really well …" Xuanyuan Hancheng whispered in Lin Jiabao's ear.

"I'll take you out of the palace for a stroll today. We'll have dinner outside the palace tonight …"

"Really?!" Lin Jiabao jumped up in joy.

"How could it be fake?

Quickly let Shu Ya change your clothes. "Xuanyuan Hancheng kissed Lin Jiabao's smiling face.

Lin Jiabao quickly ran in and asked Shu Ya and Shu Qin to prepare for him.

Not long after, she changed into the plain clothes that she would wear outside the palace. She also wore a simple jade pendant as a decoration.

Xuanyuan Hancheng had also changed into a low-key black outfit and came over. "Yuan Qing and Yuan Fu are already waiting by the carriage outside the courtyard. Tonight, we'll have dinner at the best restaurant in the west of the city, Hongyan Restaurant. I'm sure you'll like the dishes there …"

Lin Jiabao nodded happily. He had never eaten in a restaurant before, let alone with his husband …

"Your Highness the Crown Prince … Your Highness the Crown Prince …" Lin Jiabao walked to the front of the carriage and heard a woman's voice call out from behind.

He turned around and saw a woman he had never seen before. The woman was not tall and wore a pink dress. She was accompanied by a very adorable little girl and two servant girls.

Yu Qin and her daughter had been waiting outside Pingle Park for a long time. Finally, they saw His Highness the Crown Prince. However, His Highness the Crown Prince was in a hurry. Before she could call out to him, His Highness the Crown Prince had already entered Pingle Park.

Yu Qin was very unhappy. She had not seen the Crown Prince for a long time.

She continued to wait outside Pingle Park for a while. Seeing that her daughter was tired, she had no choice but to go back first.

Yu Qin and the others had just taken a few steps when they heard the sound of horse hooves behind them.

They turned around and saw that the Yuan Fu and another eunuch were preparing something. Yu Qin thought that the Crown Prince would definitely come out in a while, so she quietly waited behind them.

After a while, she saw the Crown Prince come out with a young boy. Yu Qin knew that the young boy was the Crown Prince's favorite, Xiao Shi Lin. She hurriedly pulled her daughter forward.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince … Your Highness the Crown Prince …" Yu Qin had a petite figure but was very voluptuous. Her pink dress wrapped around her curvaceous body and her gorgeous makeup made her look very charming.

"Yu Clan, why did you come here?

Do you know where this is?

Who allowed you to come to Pingle Park? "Xuanyuan Hancheng ignored the Yu Clan's secret flirtatious looks and asked sternly.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince …" Yu Qin pushed her daughter, An 'er, forward. "This concubine knows that Pingle Park and the inner study are forbidden areas.

However, An 'er has always missed you, so I brought her to Pingle Park to walk around and pray that she can see Your Highness the Crown Prince. "

An 'er felt Xuanyuan Hancheng's gaze and shrank into the Yu Clan's arms. However, Yu Qin still persistently pushed her towards the Crown Prince.

"Child, didn't you always want to see your father? Why aren't you greeting your father …"

An 'er was introverted and timid. She buried her face in the Yu Clan's chest and refused to make a sound.

For as long as she could remember, her mother didn't like her very much.

Especially after she had a younger brother. Her younger brother's health was even worse than hers. Her mother stayed by his side day and night.

After her younger brother passed away, her mother started to treat her better …

The Yu Clan was secretly anxious. They felt that their daughter was too useless. She didn't inherit any of their mother's cleverness and was so timid.

Sigh … She wasn't even as likable as that wooden Kang 'er from the Song Clan.

When Lin Jiabao heard Yu Qin's words, he knew that this woman was also the Crown Prince's concubine.

He immediately became curious and poked his head out from behind Xuanyuan Hancheng to take a look.

The Yu Clan finally saw the rumored appearance of Lin Jiabao and secretly compared him to himself.

After carefully observing him for a long time, he came to the conclusion that this Shun 'er didn't look like much. He was very different from the rumors and didn't look like a powerful person … His appearance was only above average and wasn't at the level of absolute beauty.

It seemed that the Crown Prince just found it refreshing …

No matter what, she was the woman who had given birth to the Crown Prince's two children. Her contribution was even greater than that of Xu Xueying.

Yu Qin didn't think that this Shun 'er, who had only been favored for a few months, was a big threat.

Yu Qin looked at Lin Jiabao with disdain and then said with a smile, "This must be the newcomer from the Eastern Palace. We haven't met yet …"

Xuanyuan Hancheng introduced them to Lin Jiabao, "This is the Yu Clan and this is An 'er, my second daughter."

After Lin Jiabao obediently greeted the two of them, he returned to Xuanyuan Hancheng's side.

He didn't know how to face Xuanyuan Hancheng's concubine and daughter …

"Haha … We're all servants of the Crown Prince, so there's no need to be so polite, haha …" The Yu Clan chuckled when she saw that Lin Jiabao had taken the initiative to greet them.

"Okay, I'll find time to visit An 'er. You guys can go back first.

Where's An 'er's wet nurse?

Why didn't I see her? "Xuanyuan Hancheng asked.

"An 'er's wet nurse wasn't feeling well today … so I let her rest for two days," the Yu Clan replied.

"If the wet nurse isn't good enough, then find another one. Also, don't let me see you take your child out for a walk again!

Hurry up and take An 'er back. Summon an imperial physician to take a look at her and prescribe some medicine to prevent her from catching a cold … "Xuanyuan Hancheng said sternly.

The wind was quite strong today, and An 'er's body was even weaker than Kang'er's, so she couldn't stand the wind.

Without a wet nurse to take care of Tian Yi, the Yu Clan was so focused on getting his attention that they didn't even care about their daughter's health.

They were probably afraid that he would punish them, so they used their daughter as an excuse. How despicable …

Xuanyuan Hancheng looked at Lin Jiabao, who was leaning against him. His baby was still the best.

After going through his past life, he had already seen through these women's true colors. Fortunately, he had his baby to accompany him in this life …

"Yes." Yu Qin didn't dare to say anything when she heard the Crown Prince's stern tone.

Xuanyuan Hancheng held Lin Jiabao's hand and personally helped him into the carriage before getting in himself.

The Yuan Fu and Yuan Qing slowly drove the carriage away, followed by four imperial bodyguards. They all looked straight ahead as they left, leaving behind Yu Qin, who angrily watched the carriage leave.

Inside the carriage, Lin Jiabao leaned against Xuanyuan Hancheng's shoulder. "Do I need to see all of the Crown Prince's concubines?"

"There are only two in total.

Guai Bao, if you want to see them, then go ahead. Your husband will arrange it for you.

Guai Bao, you just need to remember that they won't have any influence on you or me. "Xuanyuan Hancheng said as he held Lin Jiabao's hand.

"En … I'll listen to my husband."

Lin Jiabao nodded. Since he chose to believe in Xuanyuan Hancheng, even though he still felt a bit inferior and uncomfortable when he saw Xuanyuan Hancheng's other women.

However, Xuanyuan Hancheng's attitude and actions towards him slowly calmed his uneasy heart.

"So obedient … my husband's Guai Bao … I, Xuanyuan Hancheng, swear that I will never let you down in this life …" Xuanyuan Hancheng said as he kissed his baby's tender lips, sucking on his lower lip.

A soft moan came out of Lin Jiabao's mouth. Xuanyuan Hancheng licked those pearly white teeth and entered through his slightly open mouth, dancing with his baby's fragrant tongue.

Lin Jiabao also copied Xuanyuan Hancheng's actions and took the initiative to respond to him.

After a long time, the passionate kiss finally ended. At this time, only the sound of the two people breathing could be heard in the carriage.

Xuanyuan Hancheng said as if he hadn't had enough: "What a torturous little baby …"

When Lin Jiabao heard Xuanyuan Hancheng's words, he and Xuanyuan Hancheng looked at each other. Lin Jiabao blushed and his heart beat faster. Embarrassed, he looked away: "Husband, can I look outside?"

"Of course you can …" Xuanyuan Hancheng smiled and rubbed his baby's head.

Lin Jiabao lifted a corner of the curtain and looked outside the carriage.

"I've never strolled on the streets before."

Lin Jiabao remembered that when he was young, he would clamor for his mother to take him out.

However, every time his mother took him out, they would always be pointed at and gossiped about. When he became sensible, he never asked to go out again.

Fortunately, there were many siblings at home and they were very friendly to him, so he didn't feel lonely.

"I'll take you out often in the future …" Xuanyuan Hancheng felt a bit distressed when he heard this. He could imagine how his baby spent his childhood.

"There's no need to go out often … Husband is very busy …" Lin Jiabao was very happy to hear his husband's words, but he didn't want to go out often.

"Master, we've arrived at Swan Goose House." Yuan Fu said from outside.

Xuanyuan Hancheng was helped out of the carriage by Yuan Fu. He then turned around and helped Lin Jiabao down.

Swan Goose House was a business owned by one of his subordinates. Business was booming.

Xuanyuan Hancheng was quite relieved to choose this restaurant.

They arrived early. It wasn't time for dinner yet, but the restaurant was already 30% full.

When they arrived at the restaurant, the guards had already dispersed.

Xuanyuan Hancheng and the others went to a private room on the third floor. This room had the best view of the entire restaurant. Through the window, they could see most of the streets in the western part of the city. This room was specially prepared for the Crown Prince by the owner of the restaurant.

Lin Jiabao looked out of the window at the bustling pedestrians and hawkers on the street. Everything was so novel and interesting …

The owner of Swan Goose House specialized in Huaiyang cuisine. There were several chefs in the house who were specially invited from Jiangnan.

"This is all Huaiyang cuisine. Guai Bao is a southerner and will definitely like it." Xuanyuan Hancheng gently said to Lin Jiabao: "After dinner, I'll take you around …"

Dinner didn't disappoint Xuanyuan Hancheng. As expected, his baby ate so happily that his eyes narrowed into slits.

Lin Jiabao liked today's dishes very much. Although they weren't as exquisite as the ones in the palace, the taste didn't lose to the ones in the imperial kitchen.

Especially tonight's famous Huaiyang dish, Four Happiness Meatballs. The meatballs were very big. The meatballs were red and glossy with fat and lean meat. Paired with the emerald green vegetables, the bright colors and the fragrance that assailed the nostrils were enough to whet one's appetite.

Lin Jiabao ate the fragrant and juicy meatballs. One bite after another, each of them ate two big meatballs.

Xuanyuan Hancheng was also very satisfied with his baby's good appetite today. He ordered the Yuan Fu to reward the chefs for today's meal.

After dinner, Xuanyuan Hancheng took Lin Jiabao to slowly walk around the streets.

Lin Jiabao looked at each stall. When he saw something interesting, he would bend down to take a closer look.

Lin Jiabao came to a stall. This stall was selling roly-polys.

The clay dolls were arranged neatly and swayed rhythmically.

Lin Jiabao was very happy to see them. Xuanyuan Hancheng gestured to the Yuan Fu to pay. "Pick a few if you like them …"

"I'll just pick one …" Lin Jiabao wasn't greedy. He bent down and lowered his head to choose.

The stall that Lin Jiabao chose was also in a restaurant.

The windows on the second floor of the restaurant were open. Two heads poked out to look downstairs. They whistled and laughed loudly.

"This doll is really round and perky. Hahahaha …"

It turned out that Lin Jiabao was wearing plain clothes today. When he bent down, the curves of his small buttocks were exposed.

Lin Jiabao was focused on choosing. He didn't know that the noise was because of him. He wasn't affected by the noise upstairs. In the end, he chose a clay doll wearing red clothes.

When Xuanyuan Hancheng saw that Jia Bao was done choosing, he pulled Jia Bao into his arms and left with the treasure.

Before leaving, Xuanyuan Hancheng glanced coldly at the window on the second floor. The two people on the second floor instantly fell silent.

When Xuanyuan Hancheng and the others were some distance away, the two people finally reacted.

These two people were Xue Zhiqi and Zhang Yingxiang.

Xue Zhiqi was a descendant of the Xue family. His father was Xue Rong's youngest brother, Xue Gui. He was Xue Gui's legitimate son.

Xue Zhiqi grew up in the Xue family. He often used the Xue family's reputation to bully others. He also often bullied people in Beijing with a group of hedonistic sons.

"What are you staring at!

What the hell … "Xue Zhiqi said angrily." I don't know where the Shun 'er next to me came from … "

"It's a new face. I've never seen it before. Looking at the person's clothes, he doesn't look like someone with any background. He's probably not from Beijing.

Young Master Qi, don't be angry. I'll ask around later. "Zhang Yingxiang said flatteringly.

Zhang Yingxiang's father was Xue Gui's confidant. He had always played the role of Xue Zhiqi's follower.

"Ah … there are too few Shun 'er in Beijing's brothels. The one just now looked pretty good. She's young and has a perky butt. I think she must taste good … haha." Xue Zhiqi said as he began to fantasize in his heart.

"Haha, Young Master Qi has good eyesight. If Young Master Qi likes her, I'll get her for you to enjoy tomorrow. Hahaha …" Ever since he heard that the Crown Prince doted on the Shun 'er, the trend of playing with the Shun' er became more and more popular.

The two laughed and said some dirty words. What they didn't know was that their conversation was heard by the Shadow Guard sent by Xuanyuan Hancheng.

After returning to the palace, Xuanyuan Hancheng listened to the Shadow Guard's report of the two people's identities and their conversation. His face was ashen.

The Shadow Guard repeated what he heard without emotion. He was sweating in his heart.

The Crown Prince's face was so scary …

"That damned Xue family … how dare he …" They actually dared to covet his treasure. They really deserved to die!

Xuanyuan Hancheng gritted his teeth and said, "Tell Zheng Rong to come see me …"

"Yes."

Zheng Rong came to the inner study and listened to the Crown Prince's order without changing his expression.

"Yes."

The next day, there was news that the Xue family's descendant, Xue Zhiqi, had broken his neck while riding a horse in Beijing and died …
