Unexpectedly, Concubine Yi changed the subject and continued, "Fortunately, this meeting was not bad. I am quite satisfied."
For some reason, although Bao'er's family background was not prominent and her appearance was not outstanding, Concubine Yi still liked Bao'er very much. At least she was more likable than the fifth son's wife. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that it would be great if this was her own daughter. But it was not bad either. After all, she would still be her own daughter in the future.
Thinking of her son's happiness, Concubine Yi asked Bao'er with a serious expression, "Now I have something to ask you. I know that Xiaojiu's heart is all on you now, so what about you? What do you think?"
Bao'er was stunned. Thinking about her interactions with Yin'er over the past few times, she thought that she liked him, and her face suddenly turned red. "Empress..." Bao'er stammered, unable to say the shameful words.
Concubine Yi smiled tolerantly, "Don't feel any psychological burden. I just want to know your attitude towards this relationship. After all, I am also a mother, and I want the person my child likes to like him as well. Only in this way can I rest assured to hand over my most beloved son to you."
After hearing Concubine Yi's kind words, Bao'er mustered up the courage to say, "Your Majesty, Bao'er also loves Yin'er."
"Really, Bao'er, you like me too?" Yin'er walked in with a face full of joy, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Bao'er. Behind him followed Yin'er with a gloomy face.
It is said that Yinzhen and Yin? went to Nansanso, the prince's residence. Since it was a good thing for the eight brothers, the two of them saw that there was no need for them to help. In addition, they were worried about Baoer, so they chatted with their brothers for a while and then hurried back.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I reached the door, I heard Concubine Yi asking Bao'er about her feelings for Yin'er.
Although Yinzhen knew that Baoer had him in her heart, he still had some expectations and wanted to hear Baoer say what he wanted to hear, so he waited for Baoer outside.
Unexpectedly, Baoer really admitted it, and Yinli and Yinli were so happy that they were about to bubble with joy.
Bao Er was not aware that her inner thoughts were heard by Yin and Yang. Her face instantly turned red. She felt that her cheeks could boil an egg. She lowered her head in embarrassment, not daring to look at anyone.
Concubine Yi glanced at Yinzhen with a squint, signaling him to restrain himself. She then glanced at the tenth prince Yinzhen and sighed slightly in her heart. She had just seen that Yinzhen had special feelings for Baoer.
Although the tenth child is not her own child, she still calls herself Yi'en Niang. After all, Wen Xi entrusted Yin? to her care. Now she feels uncomfortable seeing him like this.
I just hope that Baoer won’t affect their brotherhood.
Yinzhen also saw the look in his mother's eyes, but he felt that he had done enough to share Baoer with the Tenth Prince. It was his own fault for not trying hard to please Baoer.
Yin'er looked at Bao'er happily and couldn't help hugging her. "Bao'er, don't worry, I will treat you well in the future. Mother also recognizes you. Will you join me in being filial to Mother in the future?"
Bao'er was startled and said, "What are you doing? There is no one here." She glanced at Concubine Yi and the Eleventh Prince, and shyly wanted Yinzhen to let her go.
She felt like she was about to burst into smoke.
"No, no, Bao'er, I'm so happy and so blessed." Yin'er hugged Bao'er and acted coquettishly, rubbing his chin against Bao'er's head. He thought to himself that since they were all family, he wasn't afraid.
"You're asking for death! Let go of me! My hair is going to get messed up." Bao'er hit Yin'er's chest with her hand. She was almost angry to death. She didn't notice that Concubine Yi was still there. She felt so embarrassed.
Seeing that Bao'er seemed angry and shy, Yin'er had no choice but to let Bao'er go.
Baoer looked up at Concubine Yi, but she was looking at them with a teasing expression and a gossipy look on her face, not caring at all that the gossip was about her own son.
Looking at Yin Xi again, the usually lively and adorable boy now had a dull look in his eyes and a drooping head, like a lost puppy. It was heartbreaking.
Baoer looked at Yin, puzzled and asked, "What's wrong with Yin? Are you in a bad mood?"
Yin's eyes lit up instantly. "No, I was just thinking about something just now." That's great, Baoer still cares about me, woooo, Yin was deeply moved.
But he also wanted to ask Baoer if he was in her heart. But Yin didn't dare, for fear that Baoer would give him an answer that he was not satisfied with.
But as long as Baoer can see me in his eyes, I will try my best to make Baoer care about me as much as he does about his ninth brother.
Baoer didn't believe what Yin said, and just wanted to ask him alone after she got out.
Concubine Yi watched the young people interacting with each other and sighed that being young was a good thing.
Then he said to Baoer, "Since both you and Laojiu are interested in each other, then I am not in vain to be a villain. I just hope that you can live your life well, then I will be relieved. If Laojiu treats you badly, just tell me and I will deal with him."
"When you have time in the future, ask Lao Jiu to bring you into the palace more often and chat with me. I like you very much, huh?"
After hearing what Concubine Yi said, Baoer suppressed her shyness and said "hmm".
Yinzhen was not satisfied with his mother's words, "Mother, I love Bao'er the most, how could I be bad to Bao'er?"
He even wanted to take out his heart and show it to Baoer, so that Baoer would know that she was the apple of his eye.
Concubine Yi smiled helplessly and ignored Yinzhen. She said to Baoer, "Okay, I have prepared a gift for you as well." Then she gestured to her maid to take out the gift she had prepared long ago.
After a while, the palace maid took out a box and opened the lid. Baoer saw that it was a pair of fine white jade bracelets.
The material and workmanship were obviously top-notch, and Baoer fell in love with it at first sight.
Concubine Yi picked one up and saw Baoer's look of satisfaction. After all, it was a gift she gave her. If she didn't like it but pretended to like it, it would be disgusting.
This was what happened to the fifth son's wife. When they got married, I gave her my favorite headpiece. She clearly didn't like it, but she still pretended to like it. Did she think she couldn't see the disgust in her eyes?
Concubine Yi picked up a bracelet and put it on Baoer. "Do you like it?"
"This was the dowry my mother gave me back then. After I entered the palace and became a concubine, she brought it to me. Now that I'm old, it's perfect for you girls to wear."
Baoer glanced at Yinzhen and saw him nod to indicate that Baoer should accept it. Baoer smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you, Concubine Yi. I like this bracelet very much and will wear it often."
"And your Majesty, you don't look old at all. You look only in your early twenties. If you and Yinzhen stand together, no one would think you are siblings..."
After getting something good, Baoer kept spouting sweet words.
Concubine Yi was so happy that she said, "I like you. You are such a good kid. Xiaojiu, you have to be nice to Baoer, otherwise my mother will not forgive you."
