Chapter 1083: Chapter 883 Nan Feng is an Outsider

Nan Feng’s heart skipped a beat, but realizing that this was Virtuous Consort’s gesture of kindness and considering they planned to take a trip as a family of three, Nan Feng would certainly slow them down with a child in her arms, so she could only smile and say, "Indeed, Mother is right. Xiaogou, you should go with His Majesty and Mother. Xiaobao is now scared of strangers and feeling unwell, so it’s better to stay in the Palace where he can be well taken care of. Outside, any change in food and drink could possibly worsen his condition."

In fact, when Xiaobao was born, the conditions were even worse, and Nan Feng was dealing with cattle dung every day, but she survived, didn’t she? Nan Feng simply didn’t want to make things difficult for Xiaogou.

After pondering for a moment, Xiaogou also agreed with Virtuous Consort, "Alright, then I will go with Father and Mother."

"I’ll go back to your Father and inform him to prepare," Virtuous Consort said, unable to hide her joy, adding after a moment, "If only your fourth brother were here, too. I have no idea when he’ll return."

Upon hearing this, Nan Feng still felt a pang in her heart.

Virtuous Consort evidently regarded her as an outsider. She mentioned everyone but Nan Feng.

On the day Virtuous Consort took Xiaogou away, Nan Feng walked Xiaogou to the Palace gate.

Xiaogou said goodbye to Nan Feng, assuring her that he would be back soon and also wanted to kiss Xiaobao. This time, Xiaobao didn’t refuse, but he felt Xiaogou’s beard was a bit scratchy and shuddered.

After Xiaogou left, Nan Feng took Xiaobao back to her residence. Xiaobao didn’t want to be carried and insisted on walking. Since she couldn’t walk yet, Nan Feng had no choice but to lead her slowly by the hand. Along the way, numerous palace maids and eunuchs from other palaces came and went, and many bowed to her as she passed and continued on their way only after she was gone, but her ears were always keen, catching bits of the whispered conversations between the maids and eunuchs:

"Is this the Crown Prince’s wife who caused the dispute between the two countries?" As the saying goes, bad news travels fast, and word about Nan Feng quickly spread throughout the Palace.

"Yeah, she hardly ever goes out. I thought she’d be stunning, but she doesn’t look that great," Nan Feng thought. Despite her reunion with Xiaogou, taking care of Xiaobao was still exhausting, so she hadn’t gained weight and looked rather haggard.

"They say the Crown Prince saved her because of his noble character. She’s been in Dashun for so long, it’s feared she must have been defiled by Dashun’s Second Prince by now. Our Crown Prince isn’t picking up someone’s discarded shoe, is he?"

"Possibly. I heard she was kidnapped twice. And that little princess, we still don’t know whose seed she carries."

"Tsk tsk..."

As Nan Feng walked slowly, listening, she felt as though her heart were being torn apart.

When she returned to Huaxi Palace, she put Xiaobao on the bed and noticed sweat on his back, so she changed him into fresh clothes. Afterward, Xiaobao started to fuss for food. Having become picky, he refused to eat many things and wasn’t serious about eating, taking a bite of one thing and then tossing it to the floor for Nan Feng to pick up.

In that moment, Nan Feng didn’t know why, but she suddenly became furious, "Xiaobao, eat if you like, or go hungry if you don’t. I’ll put away all the food, and you won’t get any of it!"

After speaking, Nan Feng let the wet nurse watch Xiaobao and went out herself. Xiaobao, looking at her suddenly departing mother, couldn’t understand why her ever-gentle mother had lost her temper all of a sudden. As Nan Feng’s silhouette disappeared, Xiaobao started to cry, growing more and more heartbroken. The wet nurse tried to console her, but to no avail.
