After returning to the Eighth Prince's residence, Tana was still thinking about how to tell the Eighth Prince about Rouze and Consort Liang.
The Eighth Prince is already troubled enough by being confined to his residence, and now this has happened. She doesn't want him to be troubled by these things anymore, after all, they are husband and wife.
Before she could figure out how to tell the Eighth Prince, he rushed in anxiously.
"Tana, didn't Rouze enter the palace with you? Why is she gone now that you're back?"
"What do you mean by that, Your Highness? Are you implying that I harmed your concubine?" Tana asked, displeased. She had just been thinking of the Eighth Prince; it was all for naught.
“Rou Ze is pregnant, so it’s normal for me to be worried about her. I don’t suspect you. You brought her into the palace, so shouldn’t you bring her back safely?” The Eighth Prince said in a slightly gentler tone.
"What do you mean, Eighth Prince, that I forcibly brought Ulanara into the palace? Didn't she beg you to let me bring her in?" Tana asked, suppressing her anger.
"I don't care how she got into the palace. I'm asking you now, where is she?" the Eighth Prince asked impatiently.
"Where is Yonghe Palace!"
"Yonghe Palace?" the Eighth Prince asked, puzzled. "Did Mother leave her in the palace?"
"No, she brought it on herself!" Tana said angrily. "Master, you don't know, do you? The reason why Ulanara insisted on coming to the palace with me is because she couldn't keep the baby in her womb. She wanted to take this opportunity to frame me!"
"What? What do you mean the baby in her womb can't be saved?" the Eighth Prince asked in disbelief.
"She took too many Xi Ji pills herself. Xi Ji pills contain a lot of musk. I think you know what musk is for!"
"How could this be?" The Eighth Prince still found it hard to accept. Now, apart from the First Princess and He Xue, only the women in his harem were pregnant, and Rou Ze was even pregnant before He Xue. This was something that could make him stand out from the Crown Prince, but how did things turn out like this!
"Tana, you can't hide anything about this!" The Eighth Prince gripped Tana's arm tightly.
Tana raised her hand and shook off the Eighth Prince's hand, "She's just a concubine, she's not worth all this trouble!"
"Where is Mother? What did Mother say?" the Eighth Prince asked hurriedly.
"Mother is too busy taking care of herself right now, so please don't count on her!"
"What's wrong with Mother again?" the Eighth Prince asked anxiously.
"My mother attempted to harm the Crown Princess, and has been demoted to a low-ranking concubine by Father and imprisoned in Yonghe Palace!"
Upon hearing this, the Eighth Prince was immediately overwhelmed with worry. How could his mother plot against He Xue? "How is He Xue? Is she alright?"
Tana sneered, "You're such a filial son, shouldn't you be concerned about your mother first!"
But don't worry, the Crown Princess is fine. With the Crown Prince around, how could anything happen to her!
"My lord, let me remind you, He Xue is now the Crown Princess. At the very least, you should call her Second Sister-in-law or Crown Princess. You'd better not call her by her name; it's not good for either of you!" Tana didn't want the Eighth Prince to cause any trouble for He Xue.
The Eighth Prince looked at Tana, his eyes concealing murderous intent. "Tana, some things are better left unsaid, understand?"
Tana sneered, "Master, don't treat everyone like fools. If you don't restrain yourself, the Crown Prince will be the first to not let you off the hook!"
“I know my limits. You go into the palace now and take Rouze out. It’s not appropriate for her to live in the palace!” The Eighth Prince wanted to use Rouze’s unborn child to maximize his own interests.
