"To be honest, Shuxian, when I was young, I was afraid of pain and didn't want to take the risk of having another child. Now that I'm at this age, seeing my son without anyone to help him, I feel a little regretful."
Princess Yongchun looked at the noble ladies in the center of the hall with envy in her eyes!
"Why do you think he's here to help? Who knows if he's actually a hindrance? Your Highness, don't overthink it.
Now that His Highness has two grandchildren, there's no point in lamenting these things."
Zhou Qiongyue really didn't understand why her friend wanted to have a daughter who could marry the prince. The fight for the throne has always been extremely dangerous since ancient times.
Princess Yongchun felt that what he said made sense. She didn't want to have children when she was young, and now she couldn't even if she wanted to. There was no point in worrying about it.
Princess Yongchun then turned to other possibilities, "Do you think the daughter of the Marquis of Sheng'en has hope?"
Zhou Qiongyue picked at the fruit on the table and ate it, shaking her head, "This minister finds it strange!"
Princess Yongchun actually knew in her heart that her chances were slim, and when she heard her friend say so, she completely lost interest in the competition between the noble ladies in the middle of the hall.
Zhou Qiongyue and Princess Yongchun were whispering to each other while watching the fun, while Yuan Bohua put delicious food in front of Zhou Qiongyue from time to time.
The ladies around them were extremely envious of Prince Fu'an's wife and Princess Yongchun.
Some noble ladies also turned their attention to Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang. Although the two brothers already had legitimate sons, there were many women who felt that they were unique and always believed that they could become the ultimate winners in the fight in the backyard.
However, Yuan Chaochang had too many women dancing in front of him in recent years, and he disliked the hassle and didn't want to be tricked by someone without knowing it.
Yuan Chaochang now acts as if he is not interested in women in some solemn occasions, as if he wants to be like his father.
Therefore, more attention was focused on Yuan Chaokang. Yuan Chaokang was also a prince, and there was no concubine in his mansion. Those concubines who were not very favored in the mansion thought this was a good place to go.
Yuan Chaokang has become accustomed to these gazes over the years, and at this moment he and Ren Xiyu look like a loving couple.
Under the temptation of the emperor and the empress's prize, anyone with a little bit of idea came on stage to show their talents.
Zhou Qiongyue and everyone else thought that the matter ended here, but they didn't expect that the eldest princess Li Shihuan covered her stomach, screamed in shock, and there was blood on her hands.
The people at the scene were all old foxes and understood what happened instantly.
Zhou Qiongyue and Princess Yongchun both had stern faces and were watching the fun seriously.
The emperor was not so happy. His mother was not around during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, and he was already in a bad mood.
This daughter even caused trouble at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, which made the emperor even more unhappy.
The reason why Li Shihuan was able to attend this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was because the Queen Mother was no longer around.
The Queen Mother had said before when she was alive that she didn't want to see her granddaughter in any occasion.
There was originally an imperial physician on standby in the side hall nearby. When the eldest princess did this, someone immediately helped her to the side hall.
The eldest princess's husband also followed immediately.
However, everyone looked at the gloomy look of the prince consort and sighed in their hearts. He no longer had the high spirits of the former third place winner. Everyone felt that the eldest princess had done something wrong.
Not long after, the imperial physician came to report that the eldest princess was more than two months pregnant, but had miscarried because she had eaten something cold.
The imperial physician who reported back wished he could disappear right away, as he had just witnessed such a shameful royal event.
I don't know if he can leave the palace alive today. The doctor also cursed the princess in his heart for being incompetent and hurting others and herself. The Queen Mother's mourning period has not yet ended!
However, the imperial physician felt a little relieved when he thought about the presence of all the civil and military officials, nobles, and royal family members in the hall. The emperor couldn't just kill them all and silence them, could he?
After visiting the eldest princess in the side hall, the eldest princess's husband also came to the main hall and knelt down with the imperial physician.
The emperor smashed the teacup in his hand upon hearing this and said, "Asshole, this is the period of mourning for the Empress Dowager."
The emperor's words were mainly directed at the eldest princess's husband. The teacup fell to the ground in front of the eldest princess's husband, and then exploded directly.
The eldest princess's husband was named Tang. He was affected and had a small cut on his forehead.
Prince Consort Tang kowtowed calmly. If he hadn't been afraid that the Emperor would vent his anger on his nine clans, he wouldn't have even wanted to kowtow:
"Your Majesty, please understand that I haven't been able to enter the Grand Princess's main courtyard these days. This child is not mine."
As soon as Prince Consort Tang said this, the entire hall was in an uproar, and everyone wanted to disappear quickly.
Although they want to watch the fun, they value their lives more!
However, most people still felt sorry for Prince Consort Tang, as they had all heard about the eldest princess's affairs.
Unexpectedly, the eldest princess not only bullied people like this, but also became pregnant with the child of the Tang prince consort.
The Emperor stared at the eldest princess's husband with deep concern, "Do you have any evidence?"
"Your Majesty, just send someone to investigate and everything will be clear. It's my fault that I can't please the eldest princess." Prince Consort Tang said as he showed his arm, which was covered with bruises.
Even the emperor would feel ashamed when seeing this, not to mention that this marriage was arranged by him personally.
Li Shihuan was dissatisfied with his son-in-law, but wasn't he also dissatisfied with his father, the emperor?
At this time, the queen also wished she could disappear, because she had raised this eldest princess in her arms for several years.
The emperor was so angry that his hair stood on end. This time, everyone was really surprised by the royal family's excitement. "Asshole!"
However, although the emperor was angry, he did not immediately convict the eldest princess, but instead quickly ordered people to investigate.
The emperor didn't call for the end of the meeting, and everyone didn't dare to leave. They could only wait here for the results.
Fortunately, the eldest princess did all this without fear, and did not try to hide it at all. Once investigated, it was clear that this was indeed not the child of the Tang prince consort.
Everyone's sympathy for Prince Consort Tang reached a new level. Everyone thought that if Prince Consort Tang was lucky enough to survive this time, they would help him to the best of their ability.
If it weren't for Prince Consort Tang's sacrifice, who knows who would have married this terrible princess! They are sincerely grateful to Prince Consort Tang.
Although the matter was already very clear, the emperor did not immediately announce the punishment for the eldest princess. Instead, he sent someone to the side hall to help the eldest princess out.
Even though things had come to this, the emperor still wanted to give his eldest daughter a chance to defend herself. Not only was this daughter born to him by his beloved, she was also his first daughter.
The emperor once had good expectations for her. Li Shihuan, may you be happy all your life.
