Chapter 1077 Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace, Empress Fucha Langhua (13)

"Your Highness, what's wrong?"

Li Siqi deliberately paused for a moment before revealing a look of sudden realization, "Your Highness means Princess Jin, right?"

"I am aware of the matter of paying my respects today."

Hongli continued, "Taking advantage of some favor, he began to become arrogant and presumptuous."

"As expected of a foreign woman, arrogant and ignorant."

"Actually, whether she pays her respects or not is of no concern to me."

Li Siqi's tone carried a hint of helplessness, "It's just that I don't want to develop a bad habit."

It is said that "without a square, there is no rule; without a circle, there is no square."

The prince has many concubines in his harem. If they all disregard the rules like Princess Jin, things will definitely fall into chaos.

If things get chaotic in the backyard, there will definitely be a lot of gossip, and the gossip will surely spread, which will bring shame to the prince and me.

It's alright for me to lose face, but I can't let Your Highness lose face.

Your Highness is our world, and I do not wish for anyone to speak ill of you.

I believe Your Highness is aware of this as well.

"Of course I know."

Hongli nodded. "You are my virtuous wife, always considering my needs. How could I not know that?"

Besides, we've been married for almost three years.

You handled everything properly and thoughtfully.

You've considered many things that I didn't.

I know you're a good person.

I've told you before, you can decide how to teach and punish your concubines.

Don't worry about too much, I'll take care of everything.

"Yes, I understand."

Li Siqi replied with a smile, "Speaking of which, I should also consider the woman who is the most beloved in Your Highness's heart."

Ultimately, it all boils down to fearing that if they cause trouble, it will upset the prince and become the fault of the concubine.

Your Highness, I'm in a difficult position too.

"No need to make things difficult for me."

Hongli embraced his beautiful and charming wife, saying, "You can dispose of these things however you like."

……

The prince stayed overnight in the main courtyard.

The news that Princess Jin was confined to her quarters quickly spread throughout the inner courtyard.

This made them even clearer that the authority of the Princess Consort was not something anyone could challenge.

Even if the princess doesn't care, the prince will not allow the concubine to disrespect her.

Ulanara Qingying once again felt how great the gap was between a principal wife and a concubine.

"I never expected that the prince would protect her in every way."

Her tone carried a hint of disappointment, "The prince never liked her at all before, okay?"

I wonder if His Highness will forget the feelings between us.

"I definitely won't forget it."

Aruo stepped forward to comfort her, "Gege is pregnant now."

The prince would also come over every few days to talk to the princess.

"When our little prince is born, the prince will surely be even happier."

You're right.

Ulanara Qingying nodded, "However, our Qingmei Courtyard is still a bit too deserted."

"From now on, no one will speak up for us."

"Princess, what do you mean?"

A hint of anticipation unconsciously crept into A'Ruo's eyes.

"A'Ruo, do you think anyone in our backyard is willing to speak up for me?"

Ulanara Qingying murmured, "Have you noticed that Princess Gao and Princess Chen listen to the Fujin (the wife of the emperor) especially well and always side with her?"

The Princess Consort will surely take care of them in some way.

And we…

“Princess, the women in the backyard, they won’t side with us.”

Aruo looked resentful. "They are all jealous of the princess's relationship with the prince, and wish they could take the place of the princess in the prince's heart."

They don't even consider whether they're a good match.

"Everyone gets jealous."

Ulanara Qingying was not angry when she heard her words, and continued, "Even I get jealous."

As you know, I almost became the prince's wife.

Unfortunately, this princess was unlucky; her aunt was imprisoned, which caused her to lose this qualification.

Now, even the princess is very jealous of the Fujin and the eldest prince.

If this princess becomes a Fujin (a high-ranking official), the child in her womb will also become a legitimate son.

Everything is different now.

"Princess, there's a long life ahead of you."

A'Ruo looked disdainful. "Nobody knows what the future holds."

In short.

The prince will not mistreat the princess and the young prince.

"Your Highness certainly wouldn't."

Touching her belly, Ulanara Qingying thought for a moment and then instructed, "Aruo, keep an eye on the pretty maids in the palace."

Ideally, it should be one that hasn't been discovered yet...

……

A month later.

Ulanara Qingying gave birth to the second princess.

Unexpectedly, it wasn't her son. Not only was Ulanara Qingying somewhat disappointed, but Hongli was also disappointed.

He currently only has one eldest son, but he still desires to have more sons.

Just at this time.

Gao Xiyue and Chen Wanyin have been revealed to be pregnant.

This news came out.

Hongli, who had been eagerly awaiting his son, was overjoyed.

If someone gets pregnant, then a prince will definitely be born.

He no longer has a legitimate son.

however.

Hongli, who hoped his son would soon have his wish fulfilled.

Su Luyun gave birth.

She gave birth to a son weighing six pounds.

Emperor Hongli was overjoyed.

Whether it's the baby's third-day celebration or the full-moon banquet, the scale and liveliness of the celebrations are much grander than those for the eldest and second princesses.

Whether Princess Fucha or Ulanara Qingying can accept this is up to them.

"My lady, I... I'm really pregnant?"

Gao Xiyue still felt like she was in a dream.

Several days have passed, and she still can't believe she's really pregnant.

"Both the physicians of the prefecture and the imperial physicians have said that you are indeed pregnant."

Li Siqi smiled and replied, "What, you still don't believe me?"

It's not that I don't believe it.

Gao Xiyue looked like she was both crying and laughing, "I just can't believe it, my lady, that I can really get pregnant."

I thought it would be at least another year or two before I had a chance.

"Okay, this is a good thing, so just be happy."

Li Siqi instructed, "Don't overthink things. Excessive emotional reactions are bad for both you and the baby."

I finally got pregnant.

The child should be the priority. If something unexpected happens, crying won't help.

You know your own physical condition.

If this child cannot be saved, it's uncertain whether she will be able to conceive again in the future.

You need to be extra careful.

During these three months, you should rest well at Meigetsuin.

"Come and pay your respects again once your pregnancy is more stable."

"Yes, I understand."

Hearing her earnest advice, Gao Xiyue felt grateful.

He also understood the importance of his child and quickly responded, "Thank you for your concern, Madam."

"I will take good care of myself and the child in my womb."

"You should pay attention to what you eat and drink."

Thinking of Jin Yuyan, that ruthless woman, Li Siqi reminded her again, "Although she is the steward of this princess, it is hard to guarantee that there will be people with ulterior motives."

This lady hopes you will give birth to your child safely.

But I can't take care of you every moment.

"Your Meigetsuin Temple still needs to be protected by yourself."

"My lady, I understand."

Although Gao Xiyue is a bit simple-minded, she is not stupid.

She also knew that the seemingly peaceful backyard would become increasingly fierce as the number of children grew.

How to protect oneself and one's child is something that truly depends on oneself; one cannot rely entirely on the help of one's wife.

After she left.
