    • Jing Shao being an idle prince is not so bad, after all, there are so many schemes out there that having him entangled in some of them,with his bad temper, would be a very bad ideia! Let the wifey deal with them and just enjoy your days heheheheh

      Poor baby tiger rs

      • Seems like it. I wonder if theyโ€™ll reveal whoโ€™s behind this? Like Iโ€™ve read the MTL before (7-8 months ago) but I wasnโ€™t really clear on who was behind it. And why they would do this too? I have a theory that it was herself thatโ€™s creating all of this. To prevent Older Brother from giving the child away to Jun Qing and Jing Shao and to get rid of the concubineโ€™s child who was born at the same time as her fourth child. But if it was her, then I canโ€™t even imagine why. Would you really go through such lengths and harm your own child in the process?

        • I think she might do it, maybe she’s losing her mind and becomes crazy, and probably bc of that Jing Cheng will get rid of her (bc she’s is insane and can’t take care of the title of Rui Wang Fei), and also, wtf with her?? She thinks that Jing Cheng really is gonna give away the baby and Jung Qing are impatient for take away, they (JS and JQ) don’t know about it.

          I don’t like her ๐Ÿ™„

    • Its clear that they are trying to take advantage of that Rui WF’s superstition and anxiety over her child to do something to JC. Let’s see. I don’t think he is the type to fall for it easily.

      Thanks for the chapter.

  1. Looks like Rui Wang Fei is about to get into a mess. I understand that science didn’t exist then and people were naturally more superstitious, but even a distraught mother should be able to see (or at least suspect) that the nun was actually leading her on. She’ll be lucky if the nun is only out for money, without having any deeper scheme in mind.

    Thank you for the chapter โค

    • Hmm yeah you are right, i feel that they all are just con’s as if she was a real nun see wouldn’t ask for money and also the other nuns blushing while they saw jing chen. Like they are nuns they are away from all that love and blushie-blushie thing. The Rui wangfei is getting on my nerves.

      Thanks for this chapter;)

      ๐Ÿ˜

  2. Poor Jing Shao, he tries his best but is not good with schemes and politics. I knew he would feel sad thinking that his big brother essentially needs Jun Qing, but not him. He should use his time of house confinement to study political books and take care of his wangfei’s stuff ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Thank you for the translation!

  3. oh xiao shao… I believe it won’t taking long. your father need you whenever he needs to deal with war… and it’s perfect time to train your son to be a great tiger, maybe next time the tiger will protect both of you in critical situation, this still count as a vacation too!8

  4. Me intriga lo que logrรณ ver JQ, respecto a la familias Qu y Zhou, ademรกs… lo que le pasa al hijo del 2do prรญncipe es sospechoso y aรบn si me pegan, lo veo poco preocupado por su hijo, alguien estรก apuntando a รฉl, ahora quieren convencer a la princesa que el niรฑo es asรญ por una influencia… ยฟquieren culpar a JS o a JQ? o ยฟa la otra concubina?… hmmm

  5. thank you for the update ๐Ÿ’ž๐Ÿ’ž๐Ÿ’ž๐Ÿ’ž

    I thought that Mu Hanzhang has two brats in the house …. Jing Shao and Xiao Huang

    ๐Ÿคฃ

  6. The nuns…blushed? The nuns? I bet this is a scheme of some sort, probably to drive a wedge between the two princes. Rui Wangfei sure is generous to someone who can help her baby, but the fact that she didn’t even look at Mu Hanzhang’s attempt to help means she wins no points from me here, not even as a “desperate mother making a mistake,” because it’s patently false that she’d do “anything” for her child. Seriously, feeding a baby talisman paper, that’s… I mean, it’s a rebirth story, it’s not that the supernatural can’t exist, just that this seems very, very unlikely. Although it really would be interesting if they say it’s Jing Shao who has too much of heaven’s luck, because that’s not entirely wrong, and he might believe it himself if pressed. It’ll probably depend on how Rui Wangfei handles whatever news they decide to give her, but it seems like Jing Chen is already on guard so hopefully she won’t succeed at messing anything up irrevocably

    Thank you so much for translating! <3

  7. Oh I didn’t notice that I have read the end of the novel huhuhu

    Thank you for your hardwork translating this masterpiece!

  8. Jing Shao “eating soft rice”!

    Gu Huaiqing is very shrewd and careful indeed; he would definitely need a way out in case the brothers have a falling out. I am also amazed that Jing Chen can manage to hold such power. He’s not a complete intellect and brawny person either – definitely a political player.

    Bad omen for Rui Wang Fei. I hope she doesn’t end up killing the other baby if its identified to be born with “too much luck” -maybe Jing Chan will send that baby away to his brother as an “heir”..

  9. Erm, nun Mo Bei seems downright shady. Especially taking such expensive offerings for her ‘expertise’.

    Thanks for the chapter ๐Ÿ’•

  10. Sending his brother off, Jing Shao listlessly went back to the east court to find his Wang Fei. It seemed that ever since Jun Qing was able to attend court, Jing Shaoโ€™s elder brother no longer relied on him.

    Awww I so wanted this scene to be animated in Q form! And Xiao Huang daily misery too! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

    Hmmmm it seems Rui WangFei will be dealed soon enough? It seems this chapter is focusing on her digging her own grave? I don’t know if the nun is legit or paid by Jing Yu’s people, but it seems Rui WangFei will either harmed the third healthy son or maybe Jun Qing (whichever is the Yang energy the nun pointing to). But if I remember right, her family had quite good standing. So I wonder how Jing Chen will deal with her? Probably house arrest for now, until he sit on the throne that is? Hmm~

  11. Is this on hiatus or dropped? I’m not on discord so just wondering. I Look forward to this every week so hopefully it’s not dropped.
