King Hui glanced at his Ninth Uncle, and seeing that he didn't say anything, he assumed that his uncle agreed, and walked over to help Hong'er. Hong'er had just raised her foot -
Then I heard Fu Tong'er shout "Aiya!"
Lu Zhenzhi originally thought that Fu Tong'er really cared about the sisterhood, but after hearing "Oh!", he knew in his heart how this clever girl might play a trick on her, and he couldn't help but smile and watch the show.
Fu Tong'er was surprised and said, "You, you won't thank me? In terms of blood, I am your eldest sister, and in terms of seniority, I am now the woman of your husband, the Ninth Imperial Uncle. Although we haven't married yet, you still have to respect me as the Imperial Aunt. Why did you get up without saying anything? Is it something I owe you? Or is it something that's due to you?"
"You!" Hong'er gritted her teeth, not daring to contradict him out of consideration for Master Jiu, who was standing beside Fu Tong'er. She stole a glance at the Regent Prince, only to find him staring at her silently with a scrutinizing, almost razor-sharp gaze. It was as if the Regent Prince would execute her if she said anything that offended Fu Tong'er.
King Hui smiled and said, "Yes, Hong'er, hurry up and apologize to your elder sister." He still couldn't call her "Imperial Aunt".
Hong Er was unwilling to do so and said, "I'm sorry, elder sister. I was rude."
Fu Tong'er chuckled calmly and said, "Well, you're also my sister. Although you're a concubine's daughter, you still share the same father. We're sisters, but I'm your Ninth Uncle's wife, so I won't say much about our generational differences. Don't be jealous. His Highness Prince Hui treats you very well, even though he's nowhere near as good as the Ninth Master. Don't harbor any resentment."
"Yes." Hong'er listened to the reprimand with gritted teeth, and then was helped by King Hui to sit aside.
Fu Tong'er continued, "We sisters haven't been together for a long time. I slept late last night, and your Ninth Prince felt sorry for me and let me rest. But I thought it was not easy for my sister to come here, so I wanted to talk to her. You don't have to be shy, just agree to my request."
Lu Zhenzhi smiled faintly. What this girl meant was that when she lectured, the emperor's nephew's concubine just had to listen.
"How many months old is the baby?" Fu Tong'er asked with a smile, resting her head on Lu Zhenzhi.
"More than two months." Hong'er touched her belly. At this time, a maid came over to serve tea. She poured some and handed it to Hong'er, but she looked embarrassed and refused to take it.
"What? Are you afraid it's poisonous? Haha, what do you think of me, little sister?" Fu Tong'er sat up and leaned on Lu Zhenzhi's shoulder. Lu Zhenzhi took a cotton-padded jacket and put it on her. He hugged her and said gently, "Why are you getting up? You can chat with your sister even when you're lying down."
Fu Tong'er looked at him and smiled sweetly, then leaned on his shoulder again. At the same time, she put her hands on his arm and asked, "Master Jiu, do you like boys or girls?"
Lu Zhenzhi said: "Any child you give birth to is fine."
Fu Tong'er smiled and said to Hong'er: "I didn't expect that between us two sisters, the younger sister got pregnant first. From now on, won't the elder sister's child be the smaller one?" She giggled and laughed so hard that Hong'er and King Hui broke out in cold sweat.
"Please, sister, let Hong'er's child go."
Fu Tong'er raised her hand and said, "Sister, what nonsense are you talking about? Since the child is yours, I am his aunt in terms of blood relationship, and I am your child's royal grandmother in terms of seniority... Well, I didn't expect I'm so young." Fu Tong'er glanced at Lu Zhenzhi, "Thank you, Master Jiu."
Lu Zhenzhi smiled so hard that he wanted to kiss her.
"I will protect him," Fu Tong'er said. "But, now that I'm your elder, I sometimes hold grudges. I'm not sure I can give birth to the child safely."
"This is the royal heir!" Hong'er said in a more serious tone.
"Wait a minute," Fu Tong'er said, "What are you talking about, sister? I said I would take good care of him, but, saving the baby during a difficult birth, this kind of thing has been around since ancient times, right?"
"How can I let Hong'er go?"
Fu Tong'er smiled slightly and shouted, "Someone! Slap him!"
