Honeysuckle brought the food with a smile. An Qingran took a few bites and then didn't want to eat anymore. She felt that this pregnant woman was really troublesome. She was annoyed by it and it was hard for so many people to serve her.
"Miss, I just went out for a while and heard a lot of new things. Miss, do you want to listen?"
"Okay, tell me about it. I've been listening to a storyteller, but I don't know what's new."
"I heard that the concubine of Prince Kang has gone crazy recently. She wanted to chop anyone she saw in the palace. However, the princess was very stubborn and waited for her with a sword. It almost resulted in a death."
"What? Even such private information can be leaked. It seems that King Kang is not in good spirits recently."
"Yes, maybe someone leaked the news on purpose. Anyway, people are talking about it on the streets. I just sat in the teahouse for a short while, but people are saying all kinds of things. Some people even said that An Ranyue was mad because she couldn't get pregnant. The child she raised was taken away by the princess, so she is like this. I think that's about the same. In a family, a woman without children is the saddest. So I think she is a pitiful person. But why doesn't she have children yet? Will she never be able to have children in the future?"
"Not necessarily. Maybe she's not in good health right now. If she gets better, she'll be able to have a child."
"That's good. No matter what, I think she should still have her own child. But Princess Lei is a powerful person. I'm afraid that Prince Kang's mansion will have a hard time in the future. No matter what, I'm happy that Prince Kang doesn't have a good ending. I just feel sorry for those women."
An Qingran listened to her words with a smile on her face. King Kang, as a bystander in this life, she had sharp eyes and saw all kinds of virtues of this man. It was really funny. But in the last life, she felt sorry for herself. How could she like him? She was so stupid.
She is happy now that Princess Kang is in a state of chaos.
But besides being happy, there seemed to be a faint sadness lingering in her heart. The pleasure of revenge was not as strong as she had imagined. She was not really happy, but he would not stop, what could she do.
"The two concubines are about to give birth, right?" An Qingran smiled, "I'm afraid Shen Zhiyun has forgotten me now. She used to call me affectionately, but now I think she has grown up and doesn't need my help anymore."
"Yes, the one who is due in August is about the same time. The Kangwang Mansion is the most prosperous. I wonder how the Ningwang is doing now... Crown Princess, you won't blame me for being nosy, right?"
"How could that be? When have I ever blamed you? You are a little girl, and you know everything clearly."
"Crown Princess, why do I feel that you speak in an adult's tone, as if you have experienced thousands of disasters and hardships?"
"You are right. We have been through so many things. Until today, I really feel like I have lived for several lifetimes. I am afraid that people in several lifetimes have not experienced as much as I have. I will not tell you about these things. It is better for you to know them yourself, so as not to burden you. However, our good days are coming. When all the outsiders give way, we can live happily together."
Idle people? Are you referring to King Kang?
"Yes, there are other people as well. It's good that you know about them. Pay attention to their family affairs. I'll see what kind of trouble he will cause after killing An Yanran."
"Killed?" Honeysuckle opened her eyes wide in surprise.
An Qingran smiled bitterly. In fact, if they were murdered, she was the mastermind. She was the one who caused everything. She would not evade responsibility, and she had no regrets.
But as her belly grew bigger, her hatred grew weaker. If Dongfang Ye had not treated her like that last time, she might have really let him go.
For example, after Prince Ning left the capital, she did not send anyone to stop him. If he did not return to the capital, he could just be a king of a foreign land with peace of mind, how nice it would be.
As the days passed, the empress dowager did not make any move. She only met with the concubines occasionally, quietly, as if she had suddenly disappeared. She did not go to see the emperor, hold banquets, or make trouble. She did nothing. It was really quiet.
An Qingran suddenly missed Lou Wanyue very much. They hadn't seen each other for almost half a year, and she wondered what her belly looked like.
So, An Qingran decided to go to Prince Shou's Mansion.
Dongfang Jin was originally reviewing memorials, but after hearing the news, he immediately followed her there, saying that he was worried about her health. However, An Qingran knew that he was just being petty and was worried about Dongfang Run.
****
Shouwang Mansion.
Hearing that An Qingran was coming, Lou Wanyue walked very fast, but was stopped by Dongfang Run from behind. Regardless of her objection, he supported her arm and walked slowly: "The prince and his wife will not blame you, so you should walk slowly."
Lou Wanyue felt sweet inside, but her face showed no expression: "I miss her so much..."
"Which him?"
Lou Wanyue didn't understand. She stared at him blankly. Suddenly, he was never a mean person. Why did he suddenly say such words today? An Qingran felt strange and her face was burning. "Of course it's Qingran, who else? Why did the prince say such abrupt words? Did I do something wrong that made the prince suspect something?"
Dongfang Run also felt that he was being abrupt, but his face was calm: "It's just a question, why bother with it."
The two of them were bickering, real or fake.
An Qingran was holding up her skirt and just entered the yard when she saw this scene. She felt relieved. It seemed that Dongfang Run had really changed and he would fall in love with his cousin.
Because he is a smart man.
Moreover, he is a gentleman, completely different from Dongfang Ye, who will keep everything in his heart.
The two pregnant women held hands and wanted to spin around happily. It seemed that the two men were not too happy and still had reason. One held the other's hand, and the four of them entered the hall together. Lou Wanyue's belly was very round and very obvious. An Qingran pulled her wrist, put his hand on her pulse, and examined it quietly for a moment, then smiled: "It looks very similar to my mother's pulse when she was pregnant with Mingchen. It should be a boy."
Hearing this, Lou Wanyue exchanged glances with Dongfang Run, her eyes revealing joy. Lou Wanyue said gently, "Whether it's a boy or a girl, the prince and I don't care. We just hope that he is born safely. Anyway...anyway, we won't just have this one child. He will have brothers and sisters."
"Look, mothers all have the same heart..."
"Then continue the consultation. Is the baby in your belly a boy or a girl?" Lou Wanyue held her hand. "If we were not close relatives, I would really like to arrange a marriage for children."
Dongfang Run and Dongfang Jin saw that the two were talking about irrelevant things, so they looked at each other and walked out.
Seeing them leave, An Qingran smiled and said, "It seems that the prince treats you very well now?"
