Chapter 477: The despised Qin Zhou, 477

If it had happened before, Ye Jiu might have harbored some grievances, but now, she had long since let go.

If not for the identity swap, she would never have had a mother like the He family’s, who cherished her deeply.

Even though other members of the Ye Family had their little faults, compared to the private squabbles in the backyards of these noble families, those were truly nothing.

However, those who had deliberately hurt her, Ye Jiu could not simply overlook.

"So you are the one father mentioned, who is to enter the palace with me and whom I should look after?" Because Ye Jiu had changed her appearance and was dressed as a boy, the young man did not recognize her as the girl who had chased after his Jade Pendant a few days ago and then refused to take him in.

Of course, Ye Jiu’s current identity was that of a servant to the Princely Heir of the Jing Kingdom, so she immediately performed a bow and said, "Replying to the Princely Heir, this slave is indeed Xiaojiu."

The Princely Heir of the Jing Kingdom was of noble status and must be accustomed to the poses of those above others.

Yet, when Ye Jiu bowed to him, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurried over to help her up.

This help was genuine and lacked the pretentious gestures of a superior, "Father said I should take good care of you, you... need not be overly formal."

He was very afraid of the Jing King.

Ye Jiu could tell at a glance, the avoidance and fear in his eyes when he spoke of the king.

Ye Jiu was surprised, what exactly had the Jing King done to make him so afraid?

However, Ye Jiu didn’t ask.

There was another servant by the side of the Princely Heir of the Jing Kingdom named Laifu, who knew that Ye Jiu was just there to make up the numbers, so there was no need for her to lift a finger, and in fact, the Princely Heir was truly taking care of her, which left Ye Jiu feeling unexpectedly cherished.

"Princely Heir, the Princess Consort sent someone to ask if you are ready," Laifu entered from outside.

"All ready, let’s go," said the Princely Heir of the Jing Kingdom as he rose and headed out, not forgetting to look back and tell Ye Jiu, "Later, you’ll ride in the same carriage with me. After we enter the palace, just stay by my side, and if you don’t understand something, ask Laifu."

"Understood, this slave knows," Ye Jiu replied.

The Princely Heir of the Jing Kingdom was named Qin Zhou. He had lived in the outer residence since the age of eight, which is why he didn’t come out with the Jing King Consort.

By the time they reached the doorway, the Jing King Consort was already there waiting, beside her stood a girl carved out of jade, tender and adorable, but the arrogant way she looked at others ruined her overall beauty.

Ye Jiu did not like this girl, that was her first impression.

Qin Zhou approached the Jing King Consort and performed a bow, "Your son greets you, mother consort. I hope you are well."

At the same time, Ye Jiu and Laifu who were standing behind Qin Zhou also bowed, "Greetings to the Princess Consort."

The Princess Consort had several young princes behind her, each solemn in appearance and polite in demeanor, not at all like children. They all bowed to Qin Zhou as they saw him.

The Jing King Consort paid no attention to Ye Jiu and Laifu, and instead took hold of Qin Zhou as he straightened up, "Zhouzhou, no need for formalities. Come, let me introduce you. This is Lady Mo’s daughter, Ziqiao, who will be going to the palace with us to celebrate your grandmother’s birthday. She and your Aunt Mo have just returned from the countryside and don’t know many people in the capital city, so you must look after her well."

"Understood, mother," Qin Zhou answered, but his gaze when looking at Mo Ziqiao was somewhat evasive.

"Alright, hurry up and get on the carriage, we mustn’t be late for the royal banquet. Zhouzhou, you haven’t accompanied your mother for a long time; today you will ride with me," the Jing King Consort arranged without consulting anyone.
