Everyone says the Thirteenth Prince is dashing, handsome, skilled in both literature and martial arts, and the dream lover of countless young ladies. But when it comes to Zhaojia Heyue, she dismiss...
Heyue could only sigh in the end, and then warned her fiercely, "This is the only time. Don't let it happen again. Otherwise, I will definitely tell Mother and let her teach you a lesson."
Yan Yue nodded like a chick pecking at rice, then grinned and said, "I knew you were the best!"
"So, you and your brother-in-law have made up?" Seeing her like this, Heyue's eyes darted around, and she had a guess in her mind.
She thought to herself that this was quite fast, which was a good thing for Yi Duli. However, if Sixth Sister really intended to forgive Yi Duli, Heyue would have no choice.
After all, everyone has their own life to live.
Yan Yue's expression darkened.
He Yue's heart tightened, wondering if Yi Duli had bullied Sixth Sister again. Just then, she saw Yan Yue lean back and sigh softly, "After what happened, how can I pretend nothing happened and act the same as before? I can't let him go, but I can't go back to the way things were. I've also figured it out. It's normal for men to have multiple wives and concubines, and it's only a matter of time before they fall in love with someone else. Why bother with something that can't be done?"
"If he wants women, I'll take a few concubines for him. I'm not feeling well these days and can't serve him, nor do I want to be with him. As long as I maintain my status as the legal wife and have a few children in the future, I can preserve my position and avoid arguing with him every day, which would erode our past affection. Like Father and Mother, even with two concubines, didn't Father still love Mother the most?"
Heyue was taken aback, never expecting her sixth sister to think that way.
This statement is both right and wrong, and Heyue cannot comment on it.
This was a side of her sixth sister she had never seen before. Her former enthusiasm seemed to have vanished, leaving only a detached indifference and a lack of zest for life.
She didn't know whether her sixth sister was good or bad, but she understood that her sixth sister was heartbroken this time. If it were Heyue, she would probably be even more resolute. So what reason was there to persuade her sixth sister?
He Yue hoped that what Sixth Sister was saying at this moment was just an angry outburst, and that Yi Duli could see the error of his ways and rekindle Sixth Sister's passion.
At least that version of Sixth Sister was real and happy.
"Did you talk to your brother-in-law? What did he say?" Heyue asked again, very curious about Yiduli's attitude.
Yan Yue scoffed: "He didn't agree yet, but he'll agree sooner or later. Now that he can meet Aunt Zhang, he can naturally meet Aunt Li, Aunt Zhao, and Aunt Sun. It won't last long. Look, Mother even praised me for being virtuous. Sure enough, people do change. You always have to make yourself feel better. Why make things difficult for yourself?"
He Yue couldn't say anything more. This was the fate of women in ancient times. Once they entered the inner quarters, even the greatest passion would be gradually worn away.
However, she believed she would not become like that, and even if she did change in the future, she would still be fine.
Yan Yue laughed again: "Alright, let's not talk about him anymore. I think the Thirteenth Master is not bad. Although he has a few women, he has always been the same towards you. No one else has borne him a child yet. He is much better than Yi Duli."
"But why haven't you had any news after all this time? A woman really needs to have a child. If I had a child, I wouldn't be in so much pain." She sighed helplessly after saying that.
Heyue pouted: "Why are you in such a hurry? We sisters are still young, we'll have children sooner or later. So what if my brother-in-law has a son from a concubine? Since he said he values your child, he won't break his promise, and neither will Thirteen and I."
Yan Yue nodded, her expression indifferent: "I hope so."
"By the way, do you know something?" Yan Yue tugged at He Yue's sleeve, her eyes shining, and said mysteriously, "Father has decided to retire. He said it's time for Yi Duli to serve the court. Now that Father has retired, Yi Duli will be promoted. Before, he only held sinecure positions, but this time it's different. This is the end of his suffering. If Yi Duli becomes a first-rank official in the future, I will be a first-rank noblewoman. Just thinking about it makes me excited."
Uncle Isanga is indeed old, but he is much younger than his father. It is a bit early for him to retire at this time, probably to make way for Iduli.
Therefore, Heyue was not surprised and was also happy that Sixth Sister had regained her vitality.
Seeing her daydreaming, Heyue couldn't help but laugh: "If your brother-in-law heard this, he'd be smug and smug. Besides, how easy is it to become a first-rank official? You're giving him too much credit."
Yan Yue reached out and pinched her arm unhappily: "You naughty girl, can't I even think about it? You really love to discourage people! But who knows, maybe I really can become a first-rank noblewoman in the future and have a good time!"
"Hmm, hmm, then I wish you all the best!" He Yue nodded seriously with a straight face, but after a while, she couldn't help but laugh and fell onto the bed.
Yan Yue was panting heavily with anger, glaring at her resentfully, but she couldn't help but laugh.
Heyue returned to the mansion and had just taken a sip of tea when a nanny who looked after the woodshed came to report that she had something to report.
It must be related to Chunrui. He pondered for a moment and then let him in.
The old nanny came in and kowtowed to Heyue with trepidation, saying, "This servant greets the Princess Consort."
"Speak up if you have something to say," He Yue instructed calmly.
The old woman thanked her, stood up, and, not daring to delay, bowed her head and explained the whole story: "Today, Miss Chunrui seemed to be feeling better, and early this morning she started making a fuss about wanting to see the Fujin, saying she had something to say. I didn't know what it was about, and since the Fujin wasn't in the mansion, I ignored her. But she just kept making a fuss and kept shouting. I was afraid of delaying the Fujin's business, so I came to report this."
"Oh? What is it that you have to tell me?" He Yue was suspicious.
The old woman shook her head in alarm: "This servant does not know. Miss Chunrui only said that she wanted to speak with the Fujin alone, and that it was something important."
