Yinzhen was thinking about how he was about to start working at the Ministry of Justice. He knew a bit about the Ministry of Justice and was afraid he would be very busy. He estimated that once he officially started working there, he would be so busy that he wouldn't be able to come back for lunch.
He felt he should at least invite the Third and Fifth Prince's wives to have a meal together today, hoping they would come to his residence more often to "bother" him.
Although Yinzhen's behavior was indeed a bit "dog-like," after all, he didn't like people when he didn't need them before, but now that he does need them, he has a different attitude.
This person is thick-skinned; no one can see through his little scheme.
When Yinzhen and the Fifth Prince arrived at the backyard, the Third Princess Consort, upon hearing that the Fifth Prince had come to fetch her, was happy for her while also thinking of her own past.
After doing so much, he ended up being misunderstood by everyone and failed to win people's hearts. He was truly incredibly foolish.
People should be more carefree!
In short, it did stir up some of the Third Prince's thoughts, leaving her with mixed feelings.
The Fifth Prince's wife was somewhat surprised that the Fifth Prince would come, but she was also quite happy.
Unlike the Third Prince's wife, she had never met the Fifth Prince before marrying him. She had heard that all of His Majesty's princes were exceptionally talented, and she had longed for and dreamed of them. However, when the Fifth Prince lifted her veil on their wedding night, she realized that it was better not to think too much about certain things.
She's a smart person, she doesn't compete or fight, she looks like a flower, but she's very calculating!
Later, she became close to the Third Prince's wife and Tong Cheng'er, and had people to talk to, so she lived a very happy life. As for the mess in the mansion, she took it all in stride.
As the saying goes, every family has its own problems, but she felt that her family's problems weren't too difficult to resolve.
Later, she became pregnant, and she focused all her attention on her belly, seemingly never developing any romantic feelings for the Fifth Prince.
As for the little white flower she encountered in Mongolia, she was more afraid of its uncontrollability.
Those who entered the palace through the proper selection process were all well-versed in the rules and regulations, and knew what they could and could not do. However, the Fifth Prince Consort felt that the little white flower was not someone to be trifled with. Although there were ways to deal with her, the process would inevitably be difficult, which was not what she wanted to see.
That's why I'm unhappy.
It wasn't that she valued the Fifth Prince as a person that much.
After she became pregnant, the Fifth Prince began to show her more care. After her initial surprise, the Fifth Princess accepted it. This was good, as she was being favored by her father and was born as a legitimate child. This was good for both her and the child.
At Yinzhen's suggestion, the Third Prince's wife and the Fifth Prince and his wife stayed.
The group had a meal together. Before the Third Princess Consort left, Yinzhen specifically said, "Third Sister-in-law, come to the mansion often to talk to the Princess Consort."
Upon hearing this, the Third Princess Consort immediately felt that something was amiss today. This was due to the Fifth Prince coming to pick her up, and also because Yinzhen's attitude towards her had been much better.
Although he still doesn't show much emotion when facing her, at least he's not giving her the cold shoulder anymore.
So that's why they wanted her to come and keep Tong Cheng'er company!
After realizing what had happened, the Third Princess Consort had mixed feelings, but she smiled and agreed.
It's truly touching that Prince Yong is so thoughtful; she probably won't meet him again in her lifetime.
Thinking of that person in the mansion, the Third Princess Consort couldn't help but feel nauseous. She didn't know why, but at first, when she had given up hope, she felt a little heartache. But now, all that was left was nausea.
If it weren't for the fact that once she entered the royal family, she couldn't remarry even after her husband's death, she would have long wanted to send the Third Prince on a one-day trip to the underworld.
The Third Prince's role with his wife now is simply to be the father of her children and to warm her bed. She's only in her early twenties, so naturally she has her own needs...
Sometimes in bed, as long as you don't think about his character, his looks and performance in bed are acceptable.
When the Third Prince Consort left, she saw Yinzhen supporting Tong Cheng'er and saying something with a smile, and then she saw the Fifth Prince looking at her with concern. She smiled, and then had someone take her son away.
She doesn't comment on whether other people are living good or bad lives; she feels that her own life is quite comfortable.
It's clear that she has truly come to terms with it.
As long as a person can be open-minded and doesn't get stuck in a dead end, they can always walk smoothly on their path.
Of course, if all paths ahead were blocked, then things would be hard to say. Fortunately, the Third Prince's wife was lucky; her good family background allowed her to be the principal wife, and she didn't have to live in fear. That was enough.
Although it's not good to compare yourself with those who are worse off, it depends on the situation. As for the Third Prince's wife, you really can't compare her with those who are better off. You should think more about the concubines in the mansion. Some of them are favored for a while, but only for a short time.
With this comparison, life went on.
fine.
After the Third Princess returned to the mansion, her trusted nanny came over and said, "Princess, the master has returned. I heard that you went to the Yong Prince's mansion and you didn't look too good."
The Third Princess nodded lightly upon hearing this: "I understand, thank you for your trouble, Granny."
"It's all what a servant should do."
"What did he suffer at the hands of his fourth brother this time?"
This time, the nanny found out the truth.
"Actually, it's not a loss. The Minister of Justice retired, and recently His Majesty has been busy taking over the Ministry of Justice position. His Majesty gave this position to Prince Yong."
Upon hearing this, the Third Princess Consort immediately understood. This person couldn't get any good out of her own brother and couldn't compare to him, so she came home to throw a tantrum.
People like this are really... making me increasingly nauseous.
"Since he has a bad temper, I'll arrange for Consort Li to serve as a concubine for the next couple of days. She's gentle and understanding. The painting Consort Li sent me the other day was quite nice; I really liked it. Let's make her happy for a couple of days!"
In the blink of an eye, arrangements were made for the Third Prince.
The old woman smiled upon hearing this and said, "What the princess says is true. This servant will make the arrangements immediately."
This Princess Li is indeed gentle, considerate, and understanding, but she's just a little too understanding. She loves to get to the bottom of things, expose people's wounds, and is best at rubbing salt into their wounds.
Arranging for someone like this to serve the emperor will surely infuriate the Third Prince! And yet, this Consort Li is completely oblivious to it.
The most painful kind of stab is the one you get accidentally.
The Third Prince's wife can wait and see!
Then, as expected, the Third Prince got angry.
Two days later, in the Third Prince's study, he paced angrily in front of his servants.
"I can't stand it anymore! Go tell the Princess Consort to abolish that rule about serving me in bed. I can eat with whomever I want, and sleep with whomever I want. What right does she have to tell me what to do? Go now..."
The Third Prince looks exactly like a roaring emperor reborn.
It's... ridiculous, utterly laughable.
Upon hearing this, the servant standing nearby, after calming down, wore a bitter expression: "Master, we have mentioned this to the Fujin before, but it was all requested by the concubines and princesses in the inner courtyard. The Fujin asked for their opinions, and they were happy to follow the Fujin's arrangements."
The Third Prince was so angry that he forgot about it.
However, after hearing what the servant said, he seemed even angrier.
