Gao was unaware that the woman behind her was looking at her strangely. Fucha Mingyu looked down on Gao from the bottom of her heart. She was of low birth and dared to share Hongli's favor with her.

Thinking of this, Mingyu felt a sense of disgust towards the woman before her. However, she knew she had no way of telling anyone these thoughts, otherwise she would not be worthy of being Hongli's principal wife.

"Oh, right, Granny, go and fetch the agate bracelet that Prince Prince gave me," Fucha Mingyu said.

A moment later, Momo brought out a bracelet with an excellent color. Gao knew at a glance that it was a good thing.

The nanny came out of the room and handed the bracelet to Mingyu. "Sister, come here!" Mingyu called Gao Shi, who was still picking out jewelry, to her side.

“This was brought back from Mongolia by the Prince last time he went there, and I’ve been reluctant to wear it. Do you like it? If you do, consider this a gift from your wife,” Mingyu said.

Lady Gao was startled. Looking at the string of beads in Mingyu's hand, she realized that if she accepted this reward today, she would become the Fujin's person.

“How can I accept such a precious item? Since you like it so much, you should keep it for yourself!” said Madam Gao.

“If you accept this bracelet today, we will be family now, and I will take care of you in the future. If you don’t accept it, then you don’t need to come to see me anymore.” Mingyu saw Gao’s hesitation.

After thinking for a moment, Madam Gao said, "My lady, I will always remember how good you are to me. If there is anything I can do to help you in the future, I will do my best."

Gao thought to herself that Su refused to listen to her and disregarded their sisterly relationship. Now that she was pregnant, she would gain status through her son, and she would probably have to bow to her when she saw her in the future.

Having thought this through, Gao no longer hesitated. She accepted Mingyu's bracelet.

Mingyu smiled and told her maid to fetch some purple sweet potato cakes!

Lady Gao was surprised that the Fujin (wife of the emperor) knew about her favorite food. She thought that perhaps Fucha Mingyu truly regarded her as her good sister.

“When you came to my residence last time, I saw you eat a few more purple sweet potato cakes. I thought you must like them, so I remembered it. I’m sure I’m right.” Mingyu thought that to use Gao Shi, she first needed to get on good terms with her. “Thank you, Madam. I really like them. Of all the pastries I’ve eaten, Madam’s are the most delicious.”

The pastries were ready quickly, and the Gao family jewelry selection was almost complete.

The two sat down to eat pastries, and Mingyu said to the maid, "Then we'll send the rest to Consort Su and Madam Su!"

Mingyu said, "Sister, you entered the manor at the same time as Madam Su, right?"

Lady Gao didn't know why Mingyu suddenly asked this question, but she still answered, "Yes, Madam, we entered together."

"Logically, your status should be equal, but Madam Su is pregnant now, and she will rise in status because of her son. Her status will definitely be higher than yours. There should be two concubines in theory. If she is carrying a boy, the other concubine position will surely be hers."

Gao, who had initially felt a little guilty, was now filled with anger. Gao and Su had been in a cold war for so long, and now Su was also somewhat distant from Gao. Furthermore, Gao was pregnant, and everyone could see how much the Prince cared for her, which only fueled Gao's displeasure. Now, Su was even trying to steal the position of concubine, intending to always be superior to Gao.
