Perhaps because of the dowry, the eldest sister-in-law harbored resentment. Her mother was getting old and her preference for sons over daughters was even stronger. Her most valued sons were her eldest son and her youngest son, Wuge. She was alright when her daughter was around, but after she got married, she didn't feel much of a connection. In the first few years, she would still ask a few questions.

After his father's death, he gradually became distant, but he still cared about his fourth wife to some extent, after all, she had always been a source of joy for him. However, his mother was getting old, and she passed away a few years after his father's death.

The Fourth Prince's wife suffered a devastating blow after losing her father, mother, and son. Her only support, her husband, was a stabbing in the heart.

The taste was simply amazing.

After Honghui's death, the Fourth Princess Consort remained silent for a long time, and she became extremely thin.

It took two years for him to slowly recover. Perhaps out of guilt, the Fourth Prince, though somewhat dissatisfied with his wife's cold and distant attitude towards him after their son's death, tolerated it.

The two continued to live together in this respectful but cold manner. However, the Fourth Prince would still return to his wife's room every month. He was ambitious and wanted the supreme position, so he wanted a legitimate son.

The imperial physician had said that the Fourth Prince's wife would have a difficult childbirth and would likely have difficulty conceiving in the future. So after Honghui's death, the Fourth Prince devoted himself to treating her, and the Fourth Prince's wife cooperated. Perhaps Heaven heard her plea, and finally, there was a result.

Because it was too late yesterday, the Fourth Prince rested in his concubine's room, so he didn't ask his sister-in-law if anything was wrong.

This morning, I arrived at the main courtyard and saw a different kind of Fujin (wife), I can't quite put my finger on it, as if she had been revitalized.

In fact, the Fourth Prince has also been feeling uneasy in the main courtyard for the past two years. Every time he wants to leave, he always thinks of Honghui and the days when the Fourth Prince's wife was trembling with fear in the palace. The Fourth Prince's wife was only 10 years old when he married her. Because he was mourning the death of his mother (Empress Tong), the Fourth Prince's wife accompanied him in his mourning.

I just endured it.

He himself didn't know how long he could endure it, and he might soon reach his limit.

He disliked the oppressive environment of the main courtyard, but as for his wife who had shared hardships with him, who had lost her father, mother, and son in succession, and whose son's death was caused by another concubine, he could do nothing. If he left, he simply couldn't get over it in his heart.

I was very happy to see that my wife was more lively today.

"Your Highness looks quite well today, is there some good news?"

The Fourth Prince's wife rarely gave him a smile, and because of her pregnancy, her mood had changed. Her usually calm and dignified appearance was now radiant with glory.

Fourth Master was momentarily stunned, not quite understanding what was happening.

"My lord, I noticed you drank quite a bit yesterday. Do you have a hangover or headache?"

"Uh, uh," Fourth Prince was actually a little uncomfortable. He had gotten used to his wife's cold concern, so why was she suddenly being so warm?

Since Honghui's death, Fourth Princess Consort had become somewhat self-destructive, neglecting her husband and being taken advantage of by her elder brother and sister-in-law. She didn't commit suicide because she was afraid of implicating her family. After all, Wuge still treated her the same as when she was a child, protecting her in everything, but his abilities were limited.

Now that she's probably pregnant, Fourth Prince's wife has come to a realization: a child can't be without its father, and a child who isn't loved by its father has no future or prospects. So she changed her attitude. No matter what, for the sake of the child, she has to appease the prince and win his heart over to the main courtyard.

Besides, I've been married to my father-in-law for over a decade, and I know his hidden thoughts. I'm not worried that he won't protect the baby in my womb.
