As expected, Li Hao did not go back on his words. After returning home, he asked the butler to gather the people he had chosen in Du Jinse's courtyard.
Pu Zhu was panicking in her heart, but since the Prince was not leaving, she could only wait quietly for Du Jinse. From time to time, she would glance at Xiao Ying, but after coming out from the doctor's room, she did not say a word.
Very quickly, everyone gathered, Li Hao pulled Du Jinse and appeared in front of everyone.
"You are all trustworthy people in the I Palace, I will now assign you to Mo Mo to handle this matter."
As Li Hao spoke, Du Jinse was observing everyone's expressions. Sure enough, she saw someone's face revealing an unwilling expression.
Du Jinse understood that the treatment she received was not even a little bit worse than following her Royal Highness and a woman who could not even be considered as a concubine.
This was also within reason. "Prince, don't make things difficult …"
Du Jinse took a deep breath.
Li Hao squeezed Du Jinse's hand, telling her to be patient.
When Mo Mo comes back, I will also give you an additional compensation. You two will still be people of I's residence, and after a year, if you are willing to stay at Mo Mo's side, you will still receive the same treatment. If you are unwilling, then you will still receive the same treatment when you return to I. "
This would be tantamount to double pay.
Everyone could not help but be moved. They were all looking for a way to live their lives. Since they had this extra income, then their families would be a lot more relaxed.
These people were the outermost members of the Royal Mansion. Honestly speaking, even if there were benefits, it wouldn't be their turn.
Immediately, a few people walked out, indicating that they were willing.
Rather than wasting time in the Prince's Mansion, it was better to go out and earn more money. Furthermore, with the Prince's fondness towards Miss Mo Mo, as a person who became Miss Mo Mo, it might be easier to get close to her.
"I thank everyone here for your help."
Du Jinse congratulated everyone first.
No one expected Du Jinse to be so polite, and immediately returned the greeting.
Du Jinse looked at the people who expressed that they wanted to stay, and continued, "I have also asked everyone to be prepared, I bought a manor outside the capital, and need someone to help me look after it. If all of you want to enjoy the happiness, then you don't need to go, after all, unless it is a position of power that allows you to seek justice, and if everyone went, and refused to help, or have any other thoughts, I will not follow."
Du Jinse said those words with a smile on her face, but that smile did not reach her eyes.
Everyone originally had a contemptuous heart. A woman that relied on climbing onto a prince's bed to rise up was not as high as them. Once he flew up the branch and turned into a phoenix, he could command them.
Facing Du Jinse's gaze, everyone's expressions became cold, and a bit of contempt went through their hearts.
"If there's no objection, then you all can leave." Li Hao said.
After everyone had left, Li Hao looked at Du Jinse and said with certainty: "You seem to have a candidate."
Du Jinse smiled and wrapped her arms around Li Hao's neck, "I can't hide anything from Your Highness."
Li Hao was also a little helpless, "I will not do everything, if you see anyone amongst these people, you can stay. I will go to the manor below and select some people to send over to them."
These people had been in the capital for a long time, and their eyes were already mesmerized by the bustling city. How could they be willing to go down to the manor, especially if it was not his manor?
Du Jinse tilted her head up slightly, and looked at Li Hao, "Your Highness, I've chosen, you wouldn't be reluctant to let me go, right?"
Li Hao laughed, he had the butler help him select people, naturally, he did not have much work to do in the Duke Palaces, but he was very loyal, and only such a person would want to change his current situation, even if it was just earning two taels of silver.
"I know you have something on, so deal with it first. After you're done, come to my study room."
At least, the thoughts he'd had earlier still hadn't stopped.
Li Hao placed a finger on his lips, looking at Du Jinse as he gave an ambiguous smile.
The smile made Du Jinse's neck uncontrollably turn red, and then that red quickly spread until her entire face was as gorgeous as a peach.
Li Hao left with a smile.
Du Jinse reached out to brush the hair in front of her forehead, restrained her smile, and walked towards the room that Xiao Ying lived in.
Pu Zhu suddenly stopped and looked towards Du Jinse who had pushed open the door and walked in.
"I'm here." Du Jinse did not look at Pu Zhu, but instead, quietly looked at Xiao Ying.
Xiao Ying lifted her head and looked at Du Jinse as she walked closer.
Pu Zhu approached Du Jinse, "Mo Mo..."
Du Jinse said, "After all, this matter concerns Xiao Ying's entire life. No matter what, I wish to hear what decision Xiao Ying makes."
Du Jinse cast a sidelong glance at Pu Zhu, "You and I cannot make decisions for Xiao Ying, it's as if we cannot live for him."
Pu Zhu looked at Xiao Ying, and did not make a sound, she believed Xiao Ying had the same thoughts as her, she would definitely agree with his idea. Before Du Jinse came back, Pu Zhu had already told her his idea.
Xiao Ying looked fervently at Du Jinse, "Miss, if it were you, what would you do?"
She really wanted to know, if it was Du Jinse, what would Du Jinse do?
Du Jinse was startled, then thought about it seriously: "If it was me, I would have taken this child away while ensuring my safety, but if it was not possible, I would have chosen to have him grow up in my stomach."
After a moment of pause, Du Jinse looked at the anxious Pu Zhu, "If there is someone who truly treats me well, I will tell them everything I have done. After all, it is not my fault, if they can accept it, I am willing to live with them for the rest of my life.
Pu Zhu frowned, she hoped that Du Jinse would help her persuade Xiao Ying. How could it be like this?
Du Jinse looked straight at Pu Zhu, and asked back: "What do you think?"
Pu Zhu pursed her lips.
When King Mo saw Du Jinse with makeup that day, he still blurted out her name. He should know Du Jinse's identity.
Pu Zhu felt that it was strange. Speaking of which, Du Jinse could be counted as King Mo's sister-in-law. It was better for her not to meddle in the matters of the royal family.
Pu Zhu lowered her head and did not say a word.
Du Jinse looked at Xiao Ying seriously, "Xiao Ying, you still haven't answered me. If you haven't thought it through carefully, you can consider it for a few more days, but don't think it through for too long, we can make our plans soon."
Xiao Ying clenched her teeth, "Miss, there's no need to consider, I've decided."
Du Jinse and Pu Zhu looked at her.
Xiao Ying's hands trembled slightly as she stood up and slowly walked to stand in front of Du Jinse before kneeling down.
"Miss, please help me."
Du Jinse reached out to help Xiao Ying up, and sighed, "Don't forget, I'm a woman too."
Pausing, Du Jinse lowered her head to look at Xiao Ying, "So, no matter what decision you make, I will help you."
Even if she didn't agree in her heart.
Du Jinse had already mentally prepared herself, for most people would choose Pu Zhu's method. Presumably, Xiao Ying had also decided to do the same.
Although doing this would make Da Kui feel wrong, Du Jinse still decided to listen to her decision.
Just as she said, she was also a woman. She could not let Xiao Ying not feel that last bit of warmth.
She, Du Jinse, had never used morals to demand that she and others, and had instead followed her own heart.
