Tu Yufan saw that Prince Chun liked Jiang Yizhen more and more. Because the princess was weak and sickly, she couldn't be exposed to cold wind and had to recuperate in the palace all year round. Prince Chun almost always took Jiang Yizhen with him when he went out to attend banquets.

However, Imperial Concubine Yue did not like Jiang Yizhen very much. Firstly, as a mother-in-law, she naturally did not like the fact that her cold and calm son ignored a woman. Secondly, Jiang Yizhen was useless. She was not as capable of managing the household as Zhao Caiqing, and her behavior was out of line. She did not have the calmness of a concubine at all.

Jiang Yizhen was like a girl with an ill-fated fate. It seemed like everyone disliked her, except the boys who liked her more and more. The result of the multi-party game actually affected King Chun.

Gradually, Prince Chun was distracted by the affairs of the harem and made frequent mistakes at work. The emperor had a much worse impression of this son.

Tu Yufan had wanted his son to take the imperial examination, but he accidentally became a member of the royal family and didn't need to take the examination at all.

Wang Lingping was also very glad that her son did not need to take the imperial examination, because Zhao Yi had taken the boy's examination before and barely passed with the last place. Although considering his young age, he had no advantage over other people.

A few years later, Tu Yufan petitioned the emperor to confer the title of Crown Prince on him, but the emperor never responded.

Tu Yufan: “…”

Time and Space Mirror: "Brother Fan, is the emperor considering letting you inherit the throne?"

Tu Yufan frowned: "Don't talk nonsense, the emperor is just waiting and watching."

However, this also means that the emperor really wants to include him in the list of heirs. Compared with the cheerful prince, Tu Yufan's lack of ambition makes the increasingly suspicious emperor feel more at ease.

In this case, Concubine Yue was panicked. She had never thought that a prince with no foundation could become a threat. After thinking it over, she decided to go directly to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Prince Ning has few heirs and only one principal wife. Why not hold a beauty pageant to add some people to the princes' backyards and other royal family members?"

The emperor glanced at the imperial concubine with a half-smile.

"No need, if you have nothing to do, just go back and don't interfere too much."

Imperial Concubine Yue's face turned pale instantly. The emperor's words had already implied that she was interfering in other people's backyard affairs. She was not sure, but she was too impulsive. Now that the crown prince had not been decided, she was rushing to arouse the emperor's suspicion.

"Your Majesty, I am the concubine who is obsessed with appearances. I will take my leave first."

The emperor narrowed his eyes and began to become suspicious again.

Tu Yufan didn't know that Concubine Yue had made a bad move.

However, Xi's request to establish a crown prince was put on hold, and some people thought they had sensed the direction of the wind and wanted to stand on Tu Yufan's side.

Tu Yufan simply closed the door and refused visitors.

Suddenly, they received another letter from Zhao Caiqing. This time, Zhao Caiqing directly revealed her identity.
