Someone knocked on the door.
Olde got up and opened the door. There stood a noblewoman with seven gemstone rings on her ten fingers.
Barbara immediately stood up and bowed.
"The Flame Queen".
The princess has a son and a daughter. The eldest son is the first son of the Flame Prince, and the daughter is only ten years old.
She came in and looked Barbara up and down. Seeing her face and figure, she understood why Peter the Great liked her.
"This is the message you sent me, and I've come here specifically to thank you!"
"You have the favor of Peter the Great in the palace, how could you possibly look favorably upon a mere Flame Princess like me?"
Barbara personally helped the princess sit down and then poured her water.
The Emperor and the Flame Prince were brothers, but the Queen, relying on the power of her maternal family, had always disliked the Flame Prince, and consequently disliked the Flame Princess. In her opinion, this was the Queen's fault; a prince is a prince, and a princess is a princess.
Little did she know the princess's predicament within the prince's castle. If she were the queen, she would join forces with the princess to eliminate the Flame Prince and allow the eldest son to ascend the throne. The princess would certainly be grateful, and thus her power would become even stronger.
But now... it all belongs to her.
"Your Highness, you flatter me. I am but a humble bedmate of Peter the Great. Helping Your Highness is also helping myself!"
A glint of light flashed in the princess's eyes.
"That kid was kicked out of the Prince's Castle this time thanks to your information, my bedmate. Tell me, what do you want? I'll do anything I can to fulfill it. I owe you a huge favor this time!"
Barbara's every action is an adventure.
Instead of stating her request directly, she asked the princess, "Even if that boy is no longer the prince's son, do you think the prince will continue to love this child out of consideration for his beloved, or will he shift his attention to you or your child?"
this....
"He knows he's been cheating on me for so many years, and he can still tolerate it?"
Barbara sighed.
"I heard this news from the Emperor himself. But who told the Emperor this? If the Emperor knew, how could the Prince not know? If he knew, why would he still show such favor?"
"And now there's another one inside that white moonlight's belly..."
"What!"
The princess jumped up.
After finally having a day to hold my head high, I'm now being told that life is like spring breezes blowing and life is growing again.
"In the end, it's because His Majesty doesn't have any children of his own that he dotes on his younger brother so much. If this continues, the Prince's Castle might as well be renamed!"
The princess was furious, but her family had fallen into ruin and the prince didn't care about her at all.
She gritted her teeth, unsure of what to do.
Barbara took the princess's hand.
"If you are willing to join forces with me to protect His Majesty's child, I will certainly stand on your side and let Cassius inherit the throne!"
"Ha, the Emperor is already so old and still doesn't have a child. If he waits a few more years..."
Wait a minute, the princess turned to look at Barbara.
"What, what did you just say? Save His Majesty's child?"
Her eyes moved to Barbara's stomach, and she took her hand, intending to touch her belly, but then withdrew her hand and took her pulse directly. Barbara was born into a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. Although the family had declined, their skills remained.
With just a gentle pulse diagnosis, one can tell whether or not someone is alright.
Barbara lowered her head and waited for the princess to take her pulse. Why did she choose the princess's alliance? Whether it was her situation, her needs, or the princess's inherent abilities, she was the first choice.
After taking her pulse, the princess took a deep breath.
"The pregnancy is stable. If you want to have a check-up, you can go to the Prince's Castle. It has my personal equipment. Although I studied traditional Chinese medicine, I can still use Western medical equipment. If you trust me, you can leave all the check-ups to me!"
The two looked at each other, their eyes sparkling.
"If I don't trust you, who else can I trust? I hope Your Highness will continue to offer you help in the future!"
The princess finally smiled.
"It wasn't me who helped you; it was your own intelligence that made you so. You know that behind Lilith stands Titan City! One of the four pillar cities of the empire, with a long-standing tradition, even a prince wouldn't dare to look directly at its might!"
"Now that Lilith's Black Rose Auction House has opened in Eternal Square, she must have a close relationship with the Duke of Eternal. Two of the four pillar cities have a good relationship with Lilith. And after you informed me of the news, Lilith immediately helped my son get rid of the Flame Prince so that that little cripple could be swept out of the house. How wonderful!"
"So what if the white moonlight is pregnant? The child she carries may not be born, and it's not like the one in your belly that's so lucky. I'll get rid of it before the prince returns!"
She hadn't been a princess for so many years for nothing; she knew exactly how to resolve things quickly. It was just that the prince had been standing in her way all these years, preventing her from taking action.
Now that the prince is gone, the mere steward can't possibly survive.
This was an opportunity that she had waited for for many years, and she would never let it slip away!
The princess looked at Barbara and said, "We two get along very well, from now on we'll call each other sisters!"
"How can this be!" Barbara was flattered.
The princess gently touched her belly.
"Your good fortune is yet to come. I'm calling you my sister now, which seems like you're marrying above your station, but who knows, maybe I'll be the one marrying above my station in the future!"
She patted Barbara's hand and left.
Barbara wiped the sweat from her brow. She had made a risky move. Then she turned to ask Old.
