    Chapter 99 Baby, Call Me Heartheart

    "Dong Ju, you and Baiyu, find some time to do one more thing." Xiao Yin called Dong Ju and Baiyu over.

    "Your Majesty, please tell us!" Dong Ju, with her lively personality, had grown up around the emperor. Upon hearing him call her, she immediately bounced over and asked.

    "Spread the news about the dragon robe of the Kang Prince!" Xiao Yin said.

    "Ah?" Dong Ju and Baiyu were both taken aback, then they looked at each other.

    Xiaoyue came out from the inner room holding her daughter. She also wanted to discuss this matter with the emperor.

    However, there were too many people in the mansion, making it difficult to talk.

    "I heard Mother mention it once, but there was no further news after that. Does he really have it?" Xiaoyue asked.

    "At the banquet, when I asked to borrow his clothes, did you notice his expression? That is the best proof. Moreover, his dragon robe must be hidden in a very secret place, Dong Ju..." The emperor looked at Dong Ju.

    "This is where your servant comes into play." Dong Ju grinned.

    "His dragon robe is definitely hidden very well. Especially now that I am here, he will hide it even better. Perhaps he might even send experts to guard it. Baiyu, make sure to protect Dong Ju!" the emperor said.

    "Understood!" Baiyu responded immediately.

    "Besides this matter, spread another rumor... say that when the little princess was born, auspicious signs appeared, and wherever she goes, there is abundant rain and dew." Xiao Yin said.

    "Brother, would directing attention towards Xiao Xi'er put her in danger?" Xiaoyue asked immediately.

    Xiao Yin looked at the little girl in Xiaoyao's arms. He smiled and said, "The incident at Huai County and the One Line Sky, as well as the rumors in Yude County, should have reached the ears of the people there. If we spread these rumors, the people of Yude County will surely hold Xiao Xi'er in high regard!"

    **I don't need their admiration, Uncle. You just want to change the people's mindset from respecting the Kang Prince to something else!**

    **Forget it. Since my uncle is so kind and handsome, I'll help you again!**

    After all, being worshipped can only accumulate merit, and it won't be a loss. If Xiao Xi'er, the baby, is willing.

    Xiao Yin smiled, and Xiaoyue also laughed.

    This little girl is indeed a clever and very considerate baby.

    "Oh, I'm exhausted." Ci Xin walked into the inn and lay down on the soft couch.

    "Hmm, I heard that people from Yude County and nearby cities have come?" the emperor said.

    "Yes, you can see them from the window. They keep coming non-stop!" Ci Xin got up and took Xiao Xi'er, who had just woken up and was being wiped by Lady Jin, into his arms. "Xiao Xi'er, I heard you received many treasures today!"

    **Find a way to get them, I want to store them in the Nine-Story Pagoda!** Xiao Xi'er said.

    "Sure!" Ci Xin smiled, picked up Xiao Xi'er, and said to Xiao Yin and the others, "Let me tell you a funny story. In the Kang Prince's Mansion, those wealthy gentlemen and officials from nearby counties dared not send valuable gifts. So, the mansion received many small white flowers, covering every corner!"

    "Hmm, let everyone save some. Perhaps they'll have to send more in a few days!" the emperor said calmly.

    Ci Xin raised an eyebrow and smiled.

    He knew the emperor wouldn't easily let the Kang Prince off the hook.

    "Could Shangguan Jinghong be colluding with the Kang Prince?" Xiaoyue asked.

    "They shouldn't be on the same side," Xiao Yin shook his head.

    **Hmm, Shangguan Jinghong is a Western Regions breed. The Kang Prince is merely using some people in the court to seize the throne. However... doesn't this old man know he is terminally ill? Why does he still want to be the emperor?**

    Xiao Xi'er couldn't quite understand this.

    According to historical records, the Kang Prince did not succeed in his rebellion.

    Such traitors likely left little trace in history.

    **Right, Little Azure Dragon, think about the women you teased. How did it feel when you touched them?**

    Xiao Xi'er's thoughts were heard by Ci Xin, who decided to communicate with Xiao Xi'er.

    "By the way, there's good food in the western part of the city. I'm hungry, let's go find something to eat." Ci Xin, a man who came and went like the wind, carried the child and left.

    "Hey!" Xiaoyue chased after him immediately.

    This guy acts like a kidnapper.

    Xiao Yin quickly followed, believing in Ci Xin but worried someone might attack him, leaving him unable to protect his niece.

    In essence, the emperor cares most about his niece, with Ci Xin second.

    It's unclear if Ci Xin would feel hurt knowing this.

    Risking his life for this man.

    "Xiao Xi'er, from now on, call me Heartheart or Ci Ci. Don't call me Little Azure Dragon; I don't like being a Azure Dragon." Ci Xin carried the baby out, walking while expressing his dissatisfaction.

    **You are Little Azure Dragon!** Xiao Xi'er was speechless. Someone actually didn't like being a Azure Dragon.

    "I want to be a Black Dragon. Our dragon clan is naturally black. Why should I become a Azure Dragon, humph!" Ci Xin pouted, clearly unhappy.

    The baby was speechless.

    "Remember, call me Heartheart!" Ci Xin said.

    Xiao Xi'er spat out a mouthful of milk.

    In the streets and alleys, every household tore down their couplets and took down their red lanterns, replacing them all with white ones.

    "Ha, as expected, this is Kang Prince's city!" Ci Xin looked at the white decorations on the streets, sighed, and walked into a restaurant.

    "Imperial Tutor Ci Xin?" Many people recognized him due to his recent comings and goings at the Kang Prince's Mansion.

    Moreover, in this world, there were very few men who possessed such an extraordinary and enchanting aura.

    "Bring me a heated pot of wine, two pounds of beef, and a roasted duck!" Ci Xin said.

    "Uh, Imperial Tutor, it's not that our shop doesn't sell them, but... this is the rule in Yude County." The owner of the restaurant came forward, "When there is joy at the Kang Prince's Mansion, everyone eats meat. When there is mourning, no one is allowed to make noise, laugh, or eat meat and drink wine!"

    "Ha, do you know who I am?" Ci Xin asked.

    "You are the Imperial Tutor!" the owner immediately replied.

    "Do you know who he is? And who she is?" Ci Xin pointed at a few people entering through the door, specifically the two in the middle.

    "This humble subject greets Your Majesty, Princess Royal!" The owner turned around, immediately terrified, and quickly knelt down to kowtow.

    "The emperor wants to eat meat," Ci Xin said.

    "Your Majesty, this..." the owner kowtowed, "I can prepare meat for you, but once you leave, my family... will be finished!"

    "Hmph!" Xiao Yin sneered.
