Ah Ping looked at Qi Yu'an earnestly, "Your Highness, I just want to spend a peaceful life with you and our child. I don't want the high position of Her Royal Highness the Princess. I just want our family of three to be happy."
Qi Yu'an said, "Things are not as simple as you think. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not of Zhao bloodline. Do you think he can make his own decisions after he ascends the throne? He will only be used by Qin Guojiu's family!"
When the Crown Prince was young, His Majesty was afraid that if something unexpected happened, the other princes would poison the Crown Prince, so he blindly cultivated Qin Guojiufu.
Today, Qin Guojiu's family has great power in the military and the court. Once Zhao Chong ascends the throne, he will be nothing more than a puppet emperor of the Qin family.
If you weren't pregnant, you would have exposed it now. However, since you are pregnant, it's not appropriate to be overly emotional. Let's wait until your child is born."

Qi Yuning stared at the pitch-black night outside and said, "Given my brother's temper, he would definitely not allow anyone other than the Zhao family's bloodline to ascend the throne. However, the Qin family's power in Shengjing City is too great to be underestimated. It's probably not going to be easy to rectify the situation of stealing the dragon and switching the phoenix."
Lu Ze said, "Things will work out when the time comes. We'll just take it one step at a time. However, the days ahead will definitely not be stable."
Qi Yuning looked at the sleeping Lingling with concern, "If there is really no peaceful life, I hope Lingling can go back and not stay here."
