The maid returned to the bedroom nervously, looking at Concubine Pei who was leaning comfortably on the chaise longue, and swallowed her saliva, "My lady, Princess Youle is not feeling well. I will come to see you another day when I feel better."
"Aunt!" Pei Shutong tugged at Concubine Pei's sleeve.
"Tongtong, his majesty allows you to come to the palace to see your aunt. Don't cause trouble again, otherwise your aunt will ignore you." Concubine Pei said cruelly.
Pei Shutong's eyes were filled with tears, "Aunt!"
"Tongtong, don't wait for the prince. You can't wait. If you wait another two years, all the princes of your age in the capital will have married their first wives. What will you do? Do you have to become a concubine because of your status?"
Concubine Pei advised, "Tongtong, you are the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Apart from the Crown Prince, you can ask His Majesty to grant you a marriage with any man you want."
Pei Shutong was so anxious that tears flashed in her eyes. "I don't want it, aunt. What if in two years, after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascends to the throne, he chooses a concubine?"
"When choosing a concubine, we will choose one from among your concubines and name her after your mother. This way, if she is favored, the Prime Minister's Mansion can also..."
"No!" Pei Shutong interrupted Concubine Pei with a nasal voice and said willfully, "Aunt, I want to marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
How could her concubine's sister be worthy of marrying His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and how could she be worthy of giving birth to His Royal Highness's child! !
When she thought about the Crown Prince having a child with another woman, she became jealous to the point of going crazy.
"Tongtong!" Concubine Pei's face turned cold, "What if the prince doesn't take a concubine in two years? Will you keep waiting?"
"I..." Pei Shutong was crying, her eyes unable to hide her disappointment, "Aunt, is there no other way?"
Concubine Pei frowned slightly. Any other way?
Unless they find a way to let Tongtong and the prince live together, or drug the prince, then according to Xuanzhao's law and His Majesty's preference for the prince, her life will be over! !
If this method is not used, we can only start with the Crown Princess.
Concubine Pei narrowed her eyes. If the Crown Princess betrayed the Crown Prince, that would be different. Or she would still be infertile...
You can also try both.
"Aunt?" Pei Shutong wiped her tears.
"I'll help you one last time." Concubine Pei tapped Pei Shutong's forehead helplessly.
"Aunt." Pei Shutong sniffed, hugged Concubine Pei's arm, pursed her lips and smiled, "Shutong thanks aunt."
Concubine Pei stroked her hair and said, "Tongtong, your aunt will help you, but you must also strive to make the prince take notice of you."
Pei Shutong raised her eyes and couldn't help asking, "Aunt, how can the Crown Prince have Shutong in his eyes?"
"The prince is a man after all." Concubine Pei said thoughtfully, "He likes the appearance of the prince's wife at the moment. You should learn to behave like the prince's wife first. When the prince notices you, you can slowly develop your own style."
Pei Shutong muttered softly, "Keyan... When the Crown Princess gets along with His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness will take the initiative to serve her food, and the Crown Princess will also call His Royal Highness by his name. His Royal Highness spoils her a lot. How can Shutong learn from him?"
When she went to Qi Lan with the maid of the Lord Chang, she saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince getting along with Yan Yuning, and Yan Yuning did not respect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at all.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not say anything, but she did not dare to speak to him so boldly.
"You." Concubine Pei shook her head helplessly, "I asked you to learn the behavior of the Crown Princess. Who asked you to learn how the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess get along with each other?"
The prince is the king, Tongtong is the daughter of the prime minister and a subject. How could the prince get along with Tongtong?
"Shutong understands."
"Also, when you meet the prince, behave properly. Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. You should get along with the prince the same way a court lady should. Don't overstep the boundaries." Concubine Pei advised.
"Shutong understands."
"Recently, Empress Xuan is selecting a consort for the Fifth Lady. Go back and tell your eldest brother Shunian to pay attention. The Fifth Lady is the legitimate wife. If Shunian can marry her, it will be a great benefit to the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Aunt, my brother already has a wife he likes." Pei Shutong said softly.
