"Your mother is ill."
"Mrs. Chen, please take me in for a few days, otherwise I will have no place to sleep."
"Until your mother's anger subsides, Empress Chen will take you in."
Concubine Chen held the eldest prince in her arms and gently patted his back to coax her to sleep. The nanny who took care of the eldest prince was also able to stay in Huayi Palace because of the eldest prince.
The emperor knew that Concubine Xi and her son had a dispute, so he did not take the eldest prince back to Liangxiao Palace.
"You little brat, you're making me so angry."
"Shuangxi, the eldest prince is too ignorant. Look how angry he is with Concubine Xi."
The emperor often accompanied Concubine Xi, and Concubine Xi became pregnant again.
After hearing the news that Concubine Xi was pregnant, the eldest prince returned to Liangxiao Palace to pay his respects. Concubine Xi refused to see him, so the eldest prince mistakenly thought that his mother had a new child and did not want him, and the gap between mother and son deepened.
"Why are you sighing?"

"Yes, I understand."
Huayi Palace was very quiet after nightfall. Ah Xiang couldn't help but sigh as she helped Concubine Chen change her clothes.
"I think the eldest prince is very ambitious. If he can rule the country in the future, our Huayi Palace will definitely remain standing."
"Your Majesty is right. I will avoid Madam Li more often when I see her in the future."
"Madame Li has been taking care of the eldest prince since he was young, and he is very dependent on her. If you give her a little more favor, I think Madame Li will not be ungrateful."
"Thank you for your teachings, Madam."
"In the deep palace, one more enemy is worse than one more friend. Although Nanny Li is of a low status, she has a deep connection with the eldest prince. We don't need to offend her."
