The next day, Su Peisheng came to Yinzhen and said, "Your Majesty, the sixth daughter who was sent to the banquet yesterday has been taken back by the Eighth Prince."

Yinzhen nodded: "Understood."

The Eighth Prince took the Sixth Prince back, and Suqin found out that very night. But knowing was one thing; as a palace maid, there was nothing she could do.

But she was unwilling to accept it. Suqin was pretty, but she was far inferior to Liu'er. She felt threatened.

This made Suqin even more eager to have a child.

After Liu'er returned with the Eighth Prince, she "rested" on his bed that very night.

The next day, the Eighth Prince bid farewell to Yinzhen and set off back to the capital. Yinzhen looked at the two women he brought with him and thought that the Eighth Prince's residence would surely become even more exciting in the future, and that his little wife would not be too bored.

I've seen all sorts of women fighting in my dreams. How could that Suqin girl easily let someone else share her favor? There's also the Eighth Prince's Consort in the capital.

Three women make a drama, and this one is sure to be quite a spectacle!

While Yinzhen was diligently working on rebuilding the river embankment in Anhui, the Eighth Prince's life after returning to the capital was indeed quite "exciting".

Suqin knew that she was not particularly beautiful, and her only advantage was that she was obedient and sensible. Therefore, on the way back to the capital, she did not do anything out of line in front of Liu'er.

Liu'er didn't pay much attention to her, treating her only as a servant girl. Suqin was annoyed, but she could tolerate it.

The Eighth Prince didn't care about the intricacies between women. Whether it was Suqin or Liu'er, they were just there to amuse him; he didn't take them seriously.

After returning to the capital, the Eighth Prince settled Liu'er in an outside residence. Suqin followed the Eighth Prince back to the mansion. After returning to the mansion, Suqin became bolder in bed, which the Eighth Prince liked very much.

The Eighth Prince's wife was a woman of great virtue, but she was reserved in bed, which made it difficult for the Eighth Prince to be satisfied. With Suqin, the Eighth Prince was completely satisfied, both physically and mentally.

The Eighth Prince naturally hadn't forgotten Liu'er; she was still very much in love with him. Then Suqin used a trick, and one of the nannies around the Eighth Prince's wife accidentally noticed Liu'er's existence. They continued to investigate and eventually found out who Liu'er was.

The Eighth Prince's wife then learned of the existence of the Sixth Prince.

The Eighth Prince's wife, who couldn't tolerate any infidelity, couldn't stand her husband keeping another woman outside. She was so angry that she immediately said, "How could he treat me like this? He made such beautiful vows, how could he keep another woman? Where does he put me?"

The Eighth Prince's wife truly loved him, and his keeping a mistress was, in her eyes, a stab in the heart.

The old nanny quickly advised, "Madam, the Eighth Prince didn't bring her back, so he must be thinking of you. I've inquired, and it turns out that the Sixth Prince got her at the banquet in Anhui. He's probably just playing around with her. Why should you take her seriously, Madam? Someone like that wouldn't even have the chance to enter the manor. You can't let this cause a rift between you and the Prince!"

The Eighth Prince's wife looked at the nanny with a sorrowful expression: "Nanny, I'm so upset! We clearly agreed that it would only be me, so why can the Prince Yong next door do it but he can't? And he's keeping such a nasty thing outside, hiding it from me, not telling me. It's like he's trampling my life on the ground! Nanny, how can people's hearts change so easily?"

The old woman wanted to say that all men are the same; they are fickle and only care about the new, never the old. The vows of eternal love a man makes during a passionate moment shouldn't be taken seriously…

But she dared not speak, for to do so would be to continue stabbing the Eighth Prince's wife in the chest.

"Princess Consort, if you find those disreputable things an eyesore, just get rid of them. Why get angry over them and ruin your health? That slut will only be happy if you do that!"

The Eighth Prince's wife said dejectedly, "This isn't the first time. I knew he was lying to me when I saw his other side on the ship, but I still wanted to believe him. So what if we punish Liu'er? One Liu'er is easy to deal with, but do you think I can lock him up and prevent him from seeing other Liu'ers? Granny, I hate it so much!!"

I hate myself for getting involved; otherwise, I wouldn't be suffering so much.

The old nanny beside her also felt distressed: "Madam, don't think too much about it."

The Eighth Prince's wife suddenly said, "Before I got married, I saw many people mocking the First Prince's wife at a banquet. I've forgotten who she was, but I remember everyone saying that she was timid and incompetent, which allowed her husband to have so many affairs. She herself was always crying. At that time, I couldn't help but laugh at her in my heart for being incompetent and unable to control her own husband. I was confident in my beauty and talent, and I thought that the person I was going to marry would definitely be someone who stood out from the crowd. Now I've married such a person, but I've found that I've become the joke I used to make. Granny, don't you think it's ridiculous?!"

As she spoke, the Eighth Prince's wife laughed, then cried, and then cried again. She felt so tired!

How could she not be tired? Sleeping in the same bed but dreaming different dreams, pinning her heart on one man, finding joy in his joy and sorrow in his sorrow, she wasted her life.

The old woman remained silent; she didn't know how to offer any advice.

After a long while, the Eighth Prince's wife wiped away her tears with a handkerchief and coldly ordered, "Find someone to deal with Liu'er."

She was truly disappointed in the Eighth Prince.

Even though she knew that disciplining Liu'er would strain the relationship between the Eighth Prince and Liu'er, she still did it.

So what if he raises another six sons in the future?

Her pride would never allow anyone to humiliate her. As for the Eighth Prince, although she still couldn't let go of him, she would never be the kind of person who begged for favor.

She loves someone openly and honestly, and if that person breaks their promise, she will go to extremes.
