Consort Xiang frowned for a long while, then slowly sat down: "It's alright, I was just agitated. What happened back then is long gone."
She didn't think the Kim family could do anything anymore.
It's not that she's not smart, it's just that the scheming person always thinks more than the one being schemed against.
Consort Xiangxian couldn't think of anything for the time being.
She herself was a little dazed that Kim Shi-yu was able to bring it up.
When the people who came to help her move, there was no need to mention Consort Chen much.
Once the meaning is conveyed, she should understand.
When she finally moved out of Suning Palace, Xiang Yu Nu and Wu Shi Yu looked at her with immense envy.
They have no children, and this is probably their fate to live here for the rest of their lives.
Therefore, the women in the imperial harem still needed to have children.
For the past few years, Jin Shiyu has been sleeping poorly, but after moving out, he was finally able to get a good night's sleep.
She thought that Consort Chen had saved her life back then, and now Consort Chen had pulled her out of the mire again.
She will remember this kindness for the rest of her life.
The Kim family has lost all ambition. Just being alive, and living like a human being, is a luxury they can only dream of.
There's no need to acknowledge the child back; just knowing he's doing well is enough.
On the day before he left, Yan Nangui first went to pay his respects to the Empress and the Empress Dowager.
Those who followed her also bid farewell to the Empress and the Empress Dowager.
The trivial matters in the palace were naturally handed over to Consort Xiangxian.
The Empress Dowager glanced at her a few times: "The Seventh Princess is still young, and you want to take her out?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Although the child is still young, there are many people to serve him, so it's alright," Yan Nangui said.
The Empress Dowager was just asking casually, so naturally she wouldn't take it seriously.
After leaving the palace by carriage, the Seventh Princess rode in the same carriage with her first.
The little guy was sleepy after eating, and he slept soundly no matter where he was, whether in the carriage or elsewhere.
In the inner palace, in Wanchun Palace, Consort Xiangxian watched as the wet nurse lulled the child to sleep.
"How has Madam Lu been these past few days?"
"Your Majesty, Lady Lu was ill before, but she has recovered now. However, she still looks somewhat haggard and doesn't like to go out." Lady Lu gave birth to the Eighth Prince, but she cannot raise him herself. She cannot even acknowledge him, so naturally she won't recover.
"Your Majesty, is it necessary to..." Lingjiao asked cautiously.
"Do nothing. Instruct everyone not to mistreat her," said Consort Xiangxian.
“Yes, but… if she stays here forever, then in the future…” Lingjiao worried that the Eighth Prince would not be of one mind with the Empress in the future.
Consort Xiangxian simply waved her hand and said nothing.
Of course she wanted to get rid of the Lu family, but if she did it now, how could she explain it to His Majesty?
Besides, His Majesty wasn't in the capital, yet she still did it? How can she possibly clear her name now?
She thought, "With a prince around, I definitely have to think more."
Nowadays, I'm constantly hampered in my actions.
"Let's hope the Eighth Prince will prove himself."
“Yes, the Eighth Prince is currently the prince with the best background, and his future is also very bright,” Lingjiao said.
What good future could a prince possibly want? His only good future is that position, isn't it?
On the other side of the road, when the emperor arrived, the mother and daughter were sleeping soundly in each other's arms.
The seventh princess's little feet were still resting on her mother's belly.
Shu Chengfeng hadn't slept well either, and got up early. He was initially worried about the child, but after coming over and taking a look, he thought, "Tsk, there's really no need to worry."
So he didn't wake the mother and daughter and went back to his car.
They camped outside for the first night. Outside the camp, countless people were busy holding torches. Yan Nangui stood outside the tent with her child in her arms and looked around.
The child watched intently.
Although living outside is somewhat inconvenient, with so many people taking care of us, and plenty of clothes and bedding, the children won't catch a cold.
I was a little more excited than usual and went to bed a little later, but otherwise it was the same as usual.
The next day, when we set off, she was asleep and was carried into the car.
I slept until noon.
The emperor was initially worried that they could stay overnight in Pengzhou.
I kept an eye on her every day, and after a few days I found that this girl could eat and sleep well, and was quite plump and content.
After boarding the boat, we sailed downstream and arrived at Qintang in just one day.
Local officials from Qintang came to greet them. Members of the Qin family were among them.
When everyone paid their respects to the emperor, princes, princesses, and empresses, Yan Nangui personally carried the seventh princess.
The fact that this empress was so favored by the emperor would naturally not go unnoticed.
The seventh princess came here at such a young age, so she is naturally favored.
Who would dare to underestimate them?
To everyone's surprise, the empress was just carrying herself like that?
But looking at her, she didn't look like an ordinary woman holding a child.
She remained elegant and graceful, and the child in her arms was adorable; they looked perfect together.
Qintang has a temporary palace, although it is not large, it is still a temporary palace. It cannot accommodate so many people, but it is enough to house the emperor's family.
When Yan Nangui finally returned to his residence, the Seventh Princess looked around with her big eyes wide open.
She was a little scared, but since she was surrounded by familiar people, she stopped crying.
The wet nurse took him away to wash his hands and face and to feed him.
“Once we arrived in Qintang, the Third Prince was full of energy,” Yan Nangui said.
“Yes, the local officials in Qintang have an excellent relationship with the Murong family. They will likely support him,” Jiang Xiang said.
“From what I hear outside, the First Prince and the Third Prince are truly highly regarded. I’m afraid the scholars value the Third Prince even more,” Yuanhua said.
"If you think it's good, then so be it. Why are we in such a hurry? The Empress Dowager has her own plans, and I'm afraid she's anxious. Although Consort Ke is out of favor, she hasn't been close to the Empress Dowager for many years. And Consort Ning and the First Prince are also not close to the Empress Dowager. If these two become the Crown Prince, wouldn't the Empress Dowager be anxious?"
"That's true, but the Ye family also has girls around the same age as the First Prince and the Third Prince." The Ye family is a large family, so naturally there are quite a few girls.
"So what? Even if the Empress Dowager gives both princes to the Ye family's daughters, does that guarantee the Ye family's eternal prosperity?" It's useless.
With the death of Duke Ye, although the Ye family is wealthy, their power and influence will inevitably decline.
"Your Majesty, someone outside says that the female relatives of officials all want to come and pay their respects," said Shuanzi.
"Tell them that it's unnecessary. I am not the Empress, but merely a concubine, so there's no need for me to pay my respects," Yan Nangui said.
Shuanzi was taken aback: "This...you are the Imperial Concubine, how can they not see you?"
"Fool, you can't just go and say it. You can't expect to see someone just by saying it." Jiangxiang chuckled.
Shuanzi slapped his forehead: "Oh, I'm so stupid, I'm going now."
"Go and send a message to the Murong family, asking Consort Ke's family to pay their respects at the palace." She could make the decision on this matter.
“Yes, I suppose Consort Ke also wants to see her family,” Jiang Xiang said.
"Now that she's seen me, it'll be my turn in a few days." I still have to go to Bailu Prefecture. It's time to have a proper meeting with my second brother, who is said to have made great progress these days.
