"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess, and Prince Zhi, Prince Zhi's wife have arrived. She is entertaining them and sent me to inform you!" Lai Fu said from outside the door.
The Eighth Prince knew that the Crown Prince had deliberately brought He Xue to make a fool of him, but even knowing this, he still had to go see the Crown Prince.
Xue came to the Eighth Prince's residence mainly to see Tana, so she and the First Princess followed Tana to a pavilion, where it would be easier to talk without the Crown Prince and the others present.
He Xue and the Grand Princess exchanged a glance, each hoping the other would speak first.
Tana looked at them and burst out laughing. "Sister-in-law, Xue and I don't need to be embarrassed. I know why you're here, and I won't take it to heart."
Which man doesn't have three wives and four concubines? As long as they don't threaten my position as the Eighth Prince's wife, that's fine! No matter what the Eighth Prince does, in public I am still the Eighth Prince's wife. He can let whoever he wants into the house.
"I am the Eighth Prince's Consort, appointed by Imperial Father. No one can threaten me!"
Seeing that Xuejian and Tana were no longer joking, we were relieved. "Now that you think this way, my sister-in-law and I are relieved too. There's no need to be heartbroken over a scumbag! Men are all the same!"
If you need anything in the future, you can ask your eldest sister-in-law or any of the other sisters-in-law, or you can have someone deliver a message to me!
“He Xue, if Second Brother finds out what you’re saying, he’ll definitely be heartbroken. We’ve all seen how good he is to you!” the First Princess said with a smile.
"Sister-in-law is right, His Highness the Crown Prince is really good to you!" Tana said with a hint of envy.
“Except for my Crown Prince! Of course, my Crown Prince is the best!” He Xue said, blushing.
The Grand Princess and Tana both agreed with He Xue's words. No matter what the Crown Prince will do in the future, at least for now, the Crown Prince only has He Xue, which is something many people cannot do.
"This servant was just looking for the Princess Consort. Oh, so this is the Princess Consort here!" At this moment, an untimely voice came.
A woman dressed in bright red swayed her hips as she walked over.
"You must be the Crown Princess? This servant greets the Crown Princess and the wife of Prince Zhi!"
“This is Consort Juechan, a concubine in the household!” Tana said to He Xue and the First Consort.
“Your Highness, I am my master’s cousin, and Consort Liang in the palace is my aunt!” Juechan said to Hexue.
He Xue glanced at Jue Chan Shi and thought it was a pity that Jue Chan Shi did not have the outstanding appearance of Consort Liang.
Juechan noticed Hexue looking at her and sighed, thinking that Hexue was feeling sorry for her. She had always felt that, given that she was Consort Liang's niece, she should at least be a secondary consort in the Eighth Prince's residence, if not the primary consort! Unfortunately, she was only a concubine consort.
He Xue thought that Jue Chan was just passing by and would leave after paying his respects, but after waiting for a while, he did not see Jue Chan leave.
"Is there anything else, Consort?" He Xue asked.
"Juechan, go back to your own courtyard!" Tana knew that Juechan must have come here on purpose, probably because she heard that He Xue was there, so she came looking for him.
Juechan usually stayed in the mansion, relying on the relationship with Consort Liang, and didn't take her, the primary consort, seriously at all. She was too lazy to bother with Juechan.
However, this made Juechan think that she was afraid of her, which further fueled Juechan's arrogance. Normally, she would not care what Juechan did, but not today. She did not want Juechan to ruin the rare time she spent with Hexue.
Upon hearing Tana's words, Juechan immediately said with a wronged expression, "Sister Fujin, I only heard that the Crown Princess had arrived, so I came here specifically to pay my respects."
If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me!
He Xue rolled her eyes at Jue Chan's words and drank another cup of green tea. As expected of the Eighth Prince's people, she had a strong tea flavor just like him.
"Did you know I came here specifically?" He Xue asked.
Juechan said happily, "Yes, this servant heard that the Crown Princess had come to the manor and wanted to meet you, so I took the liberty of coming here!"
"Since you know it's presumptuous, why did you still come?" Xue has been enjoying teasing scheming girls lately.
"Huh?" Juechan felt that He Xue was acting a bit unpredictably.
The First Lady picked up her teacup and took a sip of tea to conceal the smile on her lips.
