Anxingfang and Pei Mansion.
On a clear autumn day, everyone gathered at Qinglong Hall.
On that couch, Lady Li lay slumped.
Even when she was seriously ill, she still wore gold and silver, determined not to give up her wealth and status.
Even if she is seriously ill, she is still the matriarch of the Pei family, and no one can take her away from her.
Even when she was seriously ill, Madam Li's expression was not good but very sharp, and the younger generation dared not provoke her easily.
Cao stood to one side, like a submissive daughter-in-law. Even with her son and grandson present, she was still just a daughter-in-law, with no status.
The eldest daughter of the Pei family is now married, the second daughter of the concubine is still alive, the third daughter of the legitimate wife is in the Qi Prince's Mansion, the fourth daughter of the legitimate wife is in the Eastern Palace, the fifth daughter of the concubine is in the Yongning Prince's Mansion, the sixth daughter of the concubine is still alive, and the seventh daughter of the legitimate wife is in the Qi Prince's Mansion.
There are also five concubine's daughters below.
The Pei family had a total of seven sons, both legitimate and illegitimate, and they were of the same generation as Pei Yuannu.
Now only Pei Huanzhao is married, and his son is less than ten months old.
The baby is still crying and is being cared for by the wet nurse; he's not here.
Xia was there. She was thinking that since the Chen family had their daughter-in-law managing the household, why wasn't she managing the Pei family's household?
The Pei family is really something else; from the old woman to the grandmother to the mother-in-law, not a single one of them is good.
Pei Huanqiao only lost a child, which shouldn't be a big deal.
But she gained a foothold in the Yongning Prince's mansion. This was the Yongning Prince's first child, and if she were born, things would definitely be different.
Pei Jing was furious: "We can't let this go!"
Li asked, "What do you plan to do?"
Her voice was hoarse and unpleasant, giving people goosebumps.
Pei Jing thought, "The Crown Prince and Fifth Sister are sisters, so I should at least show some concern for them. It's not like Fifth Sister can't help her."
The Pei family is out of luck. But Pei Huan has cleverly gained favor with the emperor, and the Prince of Yongning will surely be able to help the Crown Prince.
Pei Bo asked, "How do you want the Crown Prince to help?"
Pei Jing replied matter-of-factly, "Of course, we should raise Wu Yatou's status and help each other. Wu Yatou is currently in confinement after childbirth. Even if the Crown Prince doesn't go, he should send someone to investigate her thoroughly. How could she have lost her baby? If Wu Yatou is lucky, she will have another baby soon."
Qian's voice was also particularly unpleasant: "The Crown Prince hasn't made a move yet."
A scoundrel like you doesn't deserve that kind of luck!
Once she has a daughter, I'll trample that bitch under my feet and skin her alive sooner or later!
Pei Jing said, "That's perfect! We can bring Fifth Sister to the East Palace and let her experience... Isn't Princess Yongmu living in the East Palace?"
Qian said, "They're all lowly people."
Pei Jinnu said, "Mother, you should still be careful."
Qian gave her two words: "You lowly person."
Pei Jinnu ignored her and said to the matriarch, "Isn't the manor going to send someone to check on Fifth Sister? Fifth Sister is favored, so we need to make sure she's more secure in the Yongning Prince's manor. If the Pei family values her, the Prince will value her even more. Besides, it's hard to say what the situation is like in the Qi Prince's manor."
Qian cursed, "You slut!"
Pei Jinnu, unafraid of being shameless, said: "But I already had that beauty."
If the Pei family's daughter is not favored, what will she gain if she enters the Qi Prince's mansion?
Several months have passed, and the Pei family has not received any benefit whatsoever.
After all, a lady-in-waiting is just a concubine. Even without Prince Qi, the Dong family can still keep a tight rein on Prince Qi's residence, and they can't do anything about it.
Pei Huanqiao was lucky; she not only gained favor with the emperor but also had a son.
She's the first among so many sisters in the Pei family; who knows, she might just ascend to heaven someday.
Pei Huanxin said weakly, "Shall we go see them one by one? We need to take care of Gu Gu while I'm in postpartum confinement."
Pei Jinnu looked at her; she was only twelve years old and hadn't fully grown up yet.
However, the daughters of the Pei family all need to find a way out; the Prince's Mansion is something many people can only dream of.
Pei Jinnu said, "We must take good care of her, otherwise how will she serve the Prince in the future?"
Pei Jinnu prompted Pei Huanjiao, "Want to come along? It's good to have more people."
Pei Huanjiao refused.
Pei Jinnu scoffed. She still wanted to go to Prince Zheng's residence? Men, when they're ruthless, are all ruthless.
Pei Huanjiao remained silent. She believed that Prince Zheng had feelings for her, but she was willing to wait to find out why.
Besides, it's impossible for so many sisters to go to the Prince Yongning's mansion.
Madam Li made the decision: "Second daughter and Ninth daughter can go. Dress them properly so as not to embarrass the Pei family."
Yes! Pei Jinnu must be dressed up like a flower, doesn't Prince Yongning like flowers?
If she were luckier, she'd be better off than a mere villager, right? Besides, if the Prince of Yongning wanted to bully a villager, he'd have nowhere to complain.
Madam Li wanted to talk about something else: "The sixth day of the eighth lunar month is that brat's birthday."
The Pei family is paying close attention to this matter.
Because the Crown Prince can decide the life and death of the Pei family, the Pei family also wants her dead.
Li, Cao, Qian, and Xia said, "Prepare a good birthday celebration for her!"
The Qian family was extremely angry!
Li scolded her sharply: "Do you still want to see people? Do you still want to be well?"
Xia had heard that "Chang Chenghui lives in Shicui Palace, but it doesn't seem to be going well. There's probably still some affection between them."
The Qian family is now concerned about Pei Huanfeng! The Prince of Qi has brought all the beauties back: "Huanfeng should have a child first! That would be the emperor's grandson!"
Li stared at her.
Qian was not afraid: "My phoenix! Its fate is different!"
Lady Li asked, "Where are the children of the Crown Prince?"
Qian snorted! The Crown Prince can't be replaced?
Can the Dong family tolerate this?
If the Crown Prince ascends the throne, will the Dong family still have a chance to survive? The Pei family won't need to do anything either.
Madam Li roared, "I told you to prepare for the Crown Prince's birthday! Am I not going to let you help Seventh Girl? Can't you do it yourself? Are you trying to cover it up?"
Ms. Qian understood, but she still refused.
Xia Shi was different. She didn't have the same feelings for Pei Huanfeng, nor the same confidence in him. Clearly, the Crown Prince's Palace was a better option. She asked, "Does the Ancestor mean to make a big fuss about the birthday? The Crown Prince's Palace will definitely host a banquet, and we can see Chang Chenghui then?"
Li Shi declared, "You handle it!"
Xia accepted the decree.
Li thought to herself, "I'll pick out some things and give them to them!"
The Crown Prince is shameless; he's been urging me to give him that little bit of stuff several times.
Xia also knew that if she didn't repay even a little, the Crown Prince might never let it go.
The Qian family refused!
Lady Li flew into a rage: "Go and bring these things here! I'll send them to the East Palace in style!"
Lady Li called to her grandson, "What are you standing there for, Pei Bo? Haven't you thought it through? Wouldn't it be perfect to send him to the Crown Prince's Palace?"
Pei Bo came to his senses. He didn't want to repay it either.
The Crown Prince and the Di family sent only the best gifts. The Pei family doesn't have much wealth left.
However, Pei Bo still wanted to go to the Eastern Palace with his head held high.
Pei Jing didn't get much, but she wasn't bothered: "I'll go with my older brother. We'll talk to His Highness properly; he used to be the most lenient."
Qian shouted, "You can't take those things!"
Madam Li shouted, "Move them all here!"
Pei Jing chimed in, "If you're with the Crown Prince, what can't you have? Just tell me whichever one Your Highness likes."
Pei Bo nodded: "Pei Huanyue is also my daughter!"
Her surname is Pei!
Pei Huanli asked expectantly, "Are we all going? It's been so long since I've seen Fourth Sister."
If she dresses up nicely, maybe the opportunity will fall to her.
The Li family didn't stop it, since it wasn't what they planned anyway, but who said it had to be that way?
The Li family was not afraid of the raging flood.
Pei Bo didn't consider that.
Pei Huanxu was not afraid of the raging flood.
A servant ran over and reported: "Everyone in Sheng'an is saying that Prince Qi got drunk and did *that* with Miss Xin."
Pei Huanxu was cuckolded.
