Dongfang Ruoxue frowned when she heard this: "What's wrong? You are the legitimate consort of the Crown Prince. No matter who she is, she can't give you face when she comes to the Shou Palace, right? And she dares to bully our Xin'er, I will definitely not forgive her."
"Don't blame her, it's our fault too..." Lou Wanyue briefly told her what happened the day before.
After finishing speaking, Dongfang Ruoxue was silent for a moment: "Suyue, go ask the doctor from yesterday what to ask. You know what to ask, right?"
Su Yue is the most caring maid around her.
After listening to their conversation, he naturally understood what his master meant and quickly went out.
In order to cheer Lou Wanyue up, Dongfang Ruoxue kept saying interesting things.
It is also said that Prince Kang's Mansion is very lively now. Lei Yuezhu has been very pampered since she became pregnant. It is said that one rainy night, she was frightened by a black cat, and now she is looking for a doctor and someone to calm her down.
Lou Wanyue sighed: "I think the smartest one is the current emperor, who knows that there are more troubles when there are too many women..."
"Don't you know? They are currently selecting concubines, but I heard it wasn't the emperor's idea, it was the emperor and the concubine's idea, the empress didn't object." Dongfang Ruoxue said this with regret in her eyes, "I always thought that even though the emperor was so opposed and so loyal, he couldn't bear the burden of the country."
Lou Wanyue sighed: "The Queen must be feeling complicated right now. She will definitely not object to this matter, but she must be feeling bad."
"Yes, the queen is a smart person. However, there is also good news. She is pregnant again."
"So, the current talent show is imperative. It's a good opportunity in everyone's eyes." Lou Wanyue obviously has better insights into court affairs than Dongfang Ruoxue.
Dongfang Ruoxue pondered for a moment after hearing this.
"You are the most proud one. Lian Muhan will never marry another woman." Lou Wanyue joked about Dongfang Ruoxue.
Fang Ruoxue's face turned red: "You, you frivolous person, aren't you sad now? Let me tell you, even if Lian Muhan wants to marry another woman, he can't marry a demon sword like Zhong Min'er. You have to get my consent."
"You are quite virtuous." Lou Wanyue said, "I think Lian Muhan will not dare to marry another woman. He has to spend a lot of time to deal with you. I heard that he even wrote poems for you."
"Don't mention poetry. You are talking about this as a serious matter. You don't know his poetry. It's no different from a children's nursery rhyme. You don't have to listen to it."
"The kindness is greater than anything else, but you're still not satisfied. If you were in my position, you'd know how it feels..." When Lou Wanyue said this, she smiled bitterly. Perhaps she thought it was inappropriate to say this to her, so she smiled and asked her to have some tea.
Dongfang Ruoxue concealed her emotions with a smile. She just looked at Lou Wanyue and wanted to say something to persuade her, but couldn't think of it for a moment.
Maybe she knows better than I think, otherwise she wouldn't have taken her brother back. But even so, she shouldn't suffer such injustice. I don't know when my brother will recover his memory, but if his memory is restored, will it be better than it is now?
Before, she only thought that her brother and sister-in-law treated each other with respect. After getting married and thinking back on the past, she felt that the relationship between husband and wife, treating each other with respect, was simply a kind of pathology.
But what should she say?
Dongfang Ruoxue put down the teacup in her hand and smiled: "This cup is still the one I used before..."
When she talked about the past, she felt a little lonely. The Shouwang Mansion used to be very lively. Her parents were there, and she was happy.
"I don't know when my parents can be forgiven..." she said quietly.
Lou Wanyue looked up when she heard this: "Maybe we should go ask the Queen for help."
"Okay, let's go to the palace together tomorrow and congratulate her on her pregnancy with the dragon baby. This is a happy event for the whole country." Dongfang Ruoxue perked up when she heard that.
Lou Wanyue nodded and smiled.
The two chatted for a while, and then Su Yue came in and whispered a few words in Dongfang Ruoxue's ear. Dongfang Ruoxue looked a little unhappy after hearing that. After letting Su Yue and the others leave, she said, "Sister-in-law, in my heart, you are the only prince consort in Shouwang Mansion, so, in this situation, you must hold on and don't lose your composure."
"If you have something to say, just say it." Lou Wanyue became a little nervous because of what she said.
"Just now I asked Su Yue to help me investigate the doctor. After Su Yue came back, she said that the doctor said that Zhong Min'er's pregnancy was normal. The stomachache she mentioned was probably just bluffing." Dongfang Ruoxue lowered her voice when she said this. "From this, it seems that this woman is not an easy person to deal with. I'm afraid she will bully you. You should be careful."
"It's our fault too. If Xin'er hadn't been naughty, this kind of thing wouldn't have happened. I don't know if Dongfang Run will blame us."
"My brother is not confused. I will talk to him."
"Don't do that!" Lou Wanyue advised, "We have no evidence to prove that she is pretending. Even if she is pretending, it is okay for a pregnant woman to worry about the child. It would make us look petty."
Dongfang Ruoxue was only more worried about Lou Wanyue after hearing this: "Sister-in-law, no matter what, Xin'er is innocent. We must not let that woman make a fuss about Xin'er." "She won't hurt Xin'er."
Hearing this, Lou Wanyue became stern: "If she dares to harm Xin'er, I will not be polite. If she attacks me, I can turn a blind eye, just because she saved Dongfang Run. If she dares..."
She glanced outside the house, and at that moment Xin'er's laughter came in. A maternal light appeared in her eyes, and she was like a mother animal protecting her cubs, so how could she let anyone get close to her?
Dongfang Ruoxue patted Lou Wanyue's hand gently: "Remember, no matter what, my parents and I are on your side. If Zhong Min'er goes too far, I won't agree, and neither will my parents."
That's how the matter ended.
The next day, the aunt and sister-in-law entered the palace.
An Qingran was leaning against the window at that time, looking at the summer flowers outside. When she heard that they were coming, she was extremely happy. She immediately went out to greet them, asked someone to accept their gifts, and took their hands and went into the house, saying as she walked, "I was just thinking, why are the magpies calling non-stop this morning, but they are not responding to you..."
Lou Wanyue was still a little nervous, but Dongfang Ruoxue and An Qingran had another kind of kinship, so she had special feelings for An Qingran.
She pulled An Qingran's hand and looked at her waist: "How come you don't look pregnant at all in these few months?"
"Only three months." An Qingran sighed and rubbed his forehead. "This is an unexpected surprise."
She sat down while laughing: "When will you and Lian Muhan have another son? I think I took your pulse wrong last time. Qingcheng's child is a surprise. For me!"
"Yes, we had already thought of a name for a boy, but we didn't expect it to be a girl. But now it's Qingcheng, and I wouldn't change it even if it's several sons." Dongfang Ruoxue joked.
"Well, our Ran'er also likes Qingcheng, why didn't you bring her here?"
"She is also talking about little brother at home. I wanted to bring her here, but she is too noisy and I am afraid she will disturb you, my queen."
"No noise. I like the hustle and bustle now, especially the voices of children." An Qingran said with a smile. In fact, she felt that there was something wrong with her body recently, but she couldn't figure out what the problem was. Logically, she should know her own body clearly, but she just couldn't figure it out.
She didn't say anything, thinking it might be because of her pregnancy.
At this moment, a female official came in with a pile of papers and presented them to An Qingran. An Qingran smiled bitterly and asked her to leave.
Dongfang Ruoxue went forward curiously to take a look, but it turned out to be a picture of a benevolent woman.
"This is..." She understood a little.
"Yes, this has been my homework these days. It's a good thing that you are here, so please help me take a look." An Qingran did not hide it from them. Lou Wanyue also smiled bitterly. The three of them came forward and began to look through the drawings. The bright and beautiful faces of each one made Dongfang Ruoxue's face look better and better. Suddenly, she slapped the table and said, "Empress! Are you really going to help the emperor select beauties?"
An Qingran smiled gently: "The emperor didn't want to do this, but he had to do it after weighing the pros and cons. I believe him..."
When she said this, Dongfang Ruoxue immediately lost her temper: "Since you said so, I have nothing to say."
"My cousin will definitely not marry someone else, just rest assured about this."
"It's annoying. You're talking to me again."
Lou Wanyue said: "You are the happiest one. If I don't tease you, will it make us more upset now?"
An Qingran rarely heard Lou Wanyue complain, so she couldn't help but say, "Cousin, I haven't been to the Shou Palace since you came back. Is Zhong Min'er saving trouble?"
"Her?" Lou Wanyue thought for a moment, "If there is anything you need from me, just ask."
Lou Wanyue's face turned awkward when she heard this: "Thank you, Madam..."
"There's no need for us to be so polite." An Qingran felt that something had been damaged between them that would never be restored.
However, I hope she can see herself clearly and stop blaming herself.
When several people were talking, Dongfang Jin came back. After Dongfang Ruoxue greeted him, she was a little shy. Dongfang Jin looked at her and couldn't help but smile: "Do you have something to say to me?"
Emperor Dongfang Jin was really young, and these young people used to get together often, so even though he was the emperor, everyone was not so reserved in private.
He called himself "I", and An Qingran smiled. This Dongfang Jin looked quite serious when he put on airs like this.
Dongfang Ruoxue thought for a moment and said, "I do have something that I would like to ask the Emperor for mercy on."
"What's the matter? Are you still showing mercy? Did Lian Muchan do something wrong? Did he keep a mistress outside?" Dongfang Jin said some not-so-serious words in a serious manner. An Qingran coughed lightly as a reminder.
