"Meixiang, you have seen the five women today. They are all beautiful and graceful. Your Highness has always been prejudiced against women in the capital, so he has always been defensive against them."

Ling Yue spoke slowly, with a hint of bitterness in her voice.

"But now that Su Jingyao has broken that line of defense, the women behind her will surely find it easier to break it, and your Highness's heart will be shared with more and more people. I know that as the Crown Princess, I cannot be jealous, but I can't help it."

Ling Yue lowered her head slightly, clenched her hands tightly together, and her knuckles turned white from the force.

"Last night, I invited His Highness to come to Qiluan Palace, but His Highness declined on the grounds that he was busy with government affairs. Instead, he went to Xiyan Palace without giving me any explanation. In the past, His Highness would send someone to explain everything to me in order not to make me sad."

Ling Yue raised her head, a trace of pain flashing in her eyes.

"But what about now?" Her voice trembled slightly.

"Su Jingyao alone has already taken away most of His Highness's affection, and now there are five more."

Ling Yue's voice was full of resentment and unwillingness.

"Master, you must not continue to indulge in the love affair with His Highness. His Highness needs to give birth to an heir. In a few days, the Queen's newly selected beauties will enter the East Palace, and Your Highness will definitely favor them." Meixiang said anxiously.

"You must not show any dissatisfaction, and don't make things difficult for them. The Queen doesn't like you to begin with, and you must not let the Queen find any problems with you before you become the next Queen." Meixiang's eyes were full of worry.

"Besides, how can the newly-arrived concubines have any influence on you, the master? You might as well sit back and watch the tigers fight and let them compete for favor. Competing for favor is naturally the business of the concubines. You are the master of the East Palace, so you don't need to worry too much."

Mei Xiang's words were like enlightenment to Ling Yue, causing him to fall into deep thought.

As Ling Yue listened to Mei Xiang's words, a glimmer of light gradually appeared in her eyes. She nodded slightly, with a hint of determination in her eyes.

Meixiang was right. His Highness always needed an heir. Since it was not her, then any other woman didn't matter. She would just let them fight.

Isn't Su Jingyao kind and innocent, and doesn't she live in peace with the world? If more women come to the East Palace to compete with her for the prince, can Su Jingyao still remain as innocent and harmless as always?

Ling Yue couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.
