Chapter 493: Chapter 435 Bai Xiaopang Scolds the Crown Prince

Treasure Piggy woke up too.

She opened her sleepy eyes and saw Liu Qingyun staring blankly in the carriage. Her little face darkened: "Oh, you finally woke up."

This adult sleeps more than a little kid like her, what kind of grown-up is that?

"Na—"

Bao Shu’s greeting wasn’t even finished before Liu Qingyun covered her mouth.

Liu Qingyun whispered, "Call me Aunt."

Bao Shu: "???"

Liu Qingyun thought for a moment—she couldn’t let anyone guess Shang Changle’s relationship with her daughter-in-law—and then said, "Call me Sister."

Bao Shu was petrified.

The two men in black had initially planned to get rid of this troublesome little brat, but Liu Qingyun stopped them, threatening to dock their payment to keep them in check.

"How much silver is the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion paying you?"

"Ten thousand taels."

"I’ll give you double. Take me to—"

The two stared at her blankly, in unison and completely unprofessional, asking: "Take you where?"

Liu Qingyun was stumped.

Exactly, take her where?

She only knew her son and daughter-in-law had gone to the Southwest, but she didn’t know their exact whereabouts now.

"Forget it."

Liu Qingyun dropped the curtain.

Come on, say something! Don’t leave them hanging!

For twenty thousand taels, they’d climb mountains and cross seas, brave Yama Hall or Naihe Bridge. Just give them a word, backtracking isn’t allowed!

Liu Qingyun ignored the two.

The two were miserable.

Poof! Just like that, ten thousand taels were gone. How tragic!

To ensure they could at least collect the remaining ten thousand, the two took turns driving the carriage, racing day and night. Finally, they arrived near the Imperial City one lovely evening at sunset.

"Third Brother, the city gates are closed."

It was the black-clad man who had "brought" Bao Shu out of the Liu Family speaking. Liu Qingyun now knew he was called He Old Fourth, and the one he addressed as Third Brother was named Li Old Third.

They were obviously using fake names.

Li Old Third said, "Let’s find an inn to stay at first. We’ll enter the city tomorrow."

"Third Brother, Prince Jian’s wedding is imminent. The city gates are tightly guarded. Can we even get in?"

"She’s the Third Miss of Thousand Mechanism Pavilion, the future Princess Consort’s sister. They might block others, but not her."

"Who’s Prince Jian?"

Liu Qingyun cradled Bao Shu and asked.

Li Old Third, being quite respectful toward their little sponsor, replied, "He’s the Crown Prince’s son. He’s about to marry your elder sister."

Liu Qingyun calmly asked, "Isn’t my sister supposed to marry the Crown Prince? How did it become his son?"

Luo San said so, didn’t he?

Luo San even disguised himself as her son and accompanied her father to the Imperial City for the banquet.

Wait, where was her father?

She’d forgotten to ask about that earlier.

He Old Fourth said, "It’s always been the Crown Prince’s son. Third Miss, who told you it was the Crown Prince? The Crown Prince is old enough to be your dad; how could he marry your sister?"

Liu Qingyun said lightly, "Old cow sowing young grass, maybe."

The two’s mouths twitched—was it really okay for her to talk about the Crown Prince like this?

Liu Qingyun snorted, "Anyone marrying into the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion isn’t likely to be a good person, right?"

Her son and daughter-in-law had said it—the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion was full of scoundrels. Becoming in-laws with Gongsun Yanming proved that Crown Prince was nothing but an old snake with eternal bad blood!

Little did Liu Qingyun know about her son acknowledging a "wild dad," otherwise, if the Crown Prince was the old snake, wouldn’t Lu Yuan also be the son of a snake?

And Bao Shu? Hmm, a little snake spawn.

Liu Qingyun wanted to stay at the best inn.

Why? She’d put it all on the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion’s tab and settled the account when asking Gongsun Yanming for payment.

Liu Qingyun wasn’t worried about being exposed at the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion. Instead, she figured Shang Wuyou had likely returned there by now.

As long as she met him, she’d surely find out her son and daughter-in-law’s whereabouts.

"What a long journey; I’m exhausted."

Liu Qingyun collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep immediately.

Bao Shu was dumbfounded—you, you, you—you’re sleeping again? Your heart is *really* something else!
