The regent is a yandere who needs to be pampered

Chapter 42: Things Are Different Now

Mrs. Nan shook her head: "He doesn't know. At that time, the competition among officials in the court was fierce. Your father didn't dare to step into the brothel too blatantly. He was cautious like a thief when he occasionally went there, for fear of being caught."

Nan Xi frowned: "How did mother know that Liu had a child?"

"My guard told me."

Guards around him?

Nan Xi was a little confused, but didn't ask any more questions.

Mrs. Nan continued: "It was not until three years ago when your father became the prime minister that Liu sent someone to tell your father the news. After many years, the courtesan of that year is still charming and charming. As soon as they met, they attracted your father's soul. The two of them were attracted to each other and soon became passionate again."

Nan Xi said calmly: "When my father met Liu, he was not the prime minister. For his own career and reputation, he would not really get entangled with Liu. But Liu was pregnant but kept it a secret from everyone and gave birth to the child alone. She waited until my father became the prime minister... I have to say that her ability to endure is really admirable."

Madam Nan nodded: "Yes, although I look down on her, I have to admire her patience and scheming for enduring for many years."

"But how can Liu be sure that my father will definitely become the prime minister?" Nan Xi was puzzled, "If my father is still the same rank as before, or if my father commits a crime in the past few years and is demoted by the emperor, or even exiled, does she plan to raise her daughter alone?"

A prostitute, men flocked to her when she was young, for her appearance and body, but the identity of a prostitute has never represented any glory. Which man is willing to marry her?

The daughter of a prostitute is also shameful. Which serious son of a noble family would marry the daughter of a prostitute?

It is impossible that Liu did not have any plan.

"Maybe she has predicted that your father will be able to rise to prominence." Madam Nan said, "Just like when I unconditionally supported him to study and take the imperial examination, wasn't it also because I believed in his talent and ability? Liu came from a brothel and has seen all kinds of men. She may have seen at a glance that your father will become a great man in the future."

It sounds like it makes sense.

"Xi'er." Madam Nan raised her eyes and looked at her in confusion: "Why are you so interested in the matter between your father and Liu today?"

"Because Liu has to be guarded against." Nan Xi said, "Nan Yue has been thinking about entering the Prime Minister's Mansion to recognize her ancestors, and there may not be no Liu's instigation behind her."

Madam Nan said calmly: "Your father used to care about his reputation, and there were people outside who were also hiding. Now he is finally fearless... But it's also true that things are different now. He is now the Prime Minister with unlimited glory, and he is deeply trusted and respected by the new emperor. What else is there to worry about?"

Fame, wealth, sex and wine

Nan Xingzhi has been in the officialdom for so many years, and has already reached a height that most men in the world cannot reach in their entire lives. Naturally, he has to let go of all the previous constraints and scruples, and indulge himself in the glory, so that he will not waste ten years of hard study and many years of hard work in the officialdom.

"My father can't resist Liu's beauty and charm, and there is also a daughter, Nanyue, between them. He can't get rid of her even if he wants to." Nan Xi leaned on the brocade couch in front of the carved window and smiled faintly, "But I can't tolerate Nanyue."

Mrs. Nan looked at her thoughtfully: "Did Liu look for you?"

Nan Xi shook her head.

"Why does mother look at you, it seems that your hostility towards Nanyue is deeper than Nanjiao?"
