Translator: Vesper

  The Marquise naturally liked grandchildren, but because of the incident this time which would remind her of Xiao Zhi Xuan’s insolence, she had no way of liking that child.

  After Ling Luo brought it up, the Marquise became anxious, thinking about how the Xiao Royal Residence sent gifts over when the child was born as well Xiao Yi Lin’s love for the child, the Marquise had a change of expression and she furrowed her brows: “This shouldn’t be a problem, right?”


  ”Mother, if there isn’t anything else, I’m heading over to see my child,” He didn’t want to continue remaining there. There were too many things for him to handle, he didn’t have the time to handle this bunch of women.

  Without giving her the chance to speak, Ling Luo turned around and left.

  After he left, the Marquise had no intent to deal with these women as well. She waved impatiently for them to leave, then she sat on her seat feeling somewhat restless.

  When Ling Luo returned to Xiao Zi Xuan’s side, he heard Xiao Zi Xuan screaming.

  ”What did you say? Say it one more time,” Xiao Zi Xiao’s eyes were wide open as she stared at the physicians in front of her.

  The most knowledgeable physician became a little worried: “The child’s fever has subsided, but…… but……”


  ”But what? Be more direct,” Xiao Zi Xuan gritted her teeth as she stared at the men in front with eyes filled with ferocity.

  ”Although his fever has subsided, it’s still too late. In the future, the child’s intelligence might be……” He did not finish speaking, but anyone who wasn’t a fool would understand what he meant.

  ”No…… This can’t be,” Her son was so cute, but he had ended up like this, how could she not be filled with hatred?

  ”Shadow One, come out,” Xiao Zi Xuan took two steps back, her face was filled with madness.

  ”Master.”


  ”Go investigate for me, who was the one taking care of my child before he got a fever,” Xiao Zi Xuan gritted her teeth as she spoke.

  She wanted those people to know those who Xiao Zi Xuan cared for dearly weren’t people to be touched so easily.

  ”Yes.”


  Shadow One appeared and left very quickly. In a blink of an eye, his shadow was no longer seen.

  Ling Luo stood outside, listening to Xiao Zi Xuan giving orders and he furrowed his brow. He knew Xiao Zi Xuan had secret soldiers with her, but he thought they had all been killed by Xiao Qi Tian and the others during the last assassination, he never thought there was one remaining. It was something he never knew.

  It seems that Duke Xiao really loved this daughter, even giving such a person to Xiao Zi Xuan.

  ”Get lost,” Xiao Zi Xuan was feeling annoyed seeing the few physicians trembling in fear.

  When the crowd received the order, they packed up their medicine boxes in panic and quickly left, afraid of being killed by Xiao Zi Xuan if they were a little bit slower.

  Shadow One only used a small amount of time to investigate the whole incident. Xiao Zi Xuan was stunned after reading the report.

  At such cold weather, the child’s room had no heating element, and they didn’t even burn any charcoal. Those good servants her mother-in-law assigned only agreed overtly but opposed the order in secret, embezzling all the child’s items. Not only that, those servants belonged to her mother-in-law.

  Good, very good.

  Xiao Zi Xuan sneered. She called the soldiers she brought over from the Xiao Residence as well as Shadow One out. She saw Ling Luo just as she left and threw the report Shadow One had investigated at Ling Luo before he could speak.

  She then brought the group to the Marquise’s courtyard.

  As soon as she entered, Xiao Zi Xuan pointed at the few servants beside her, she had a sullen face: “ Capture them for me and beat them to death.

  ”Yes, Princess.”


  The Marquise had an ugly look seeing the scene, she slammed the table beside her: “Xiao Zi Xuan, do you know what you are doing?” She had actually dared to barge into her mother-in-law’s courtyard and beat people to death. It was simply the same as slapping her in the face.

  Xiao Zi Xuan sneered as she looked of the woman in front of her: “Since you do not know how to teach your servants properly, then I shall help you do so. Do it,” Towards those people who dare to go over their masters’ head, it was not overboard to tear their bodies apart with five horses.

  ”You dare.”


  ”Is there anything I dare not do? My son is also a young master of the Xiao Residence. Since when can these lowly things insult him? Placing a young child inside an icy cold room, even embezzling the child’s things. You are still protecting these people who step over their masters’ head, could it be that they received your acquiescence?” Xiao Zi Xuan glared daggers at the Marquise, she wanted to see how that woman would respond.
