The Fourth Prince slept with Consort Song!
Upon hearing the unreliable news revealed by the magpie, Rong Xi immediately felt terrible!
As a woman of the new era, she simply couldn't accept this situation. If she hadn't transmigrated into the body of the primary wife, she might have chosen to endure it to survive. But she was the primary wife, the legal wife, and this was something she simply couldn't tolerate!
"Master, we've only heard about it!"
Jiang Zi was even more perceptive than the magpie. Seeing Rong Xi's change in expression, she quickly added, "There is no confirmation as to whether the Prince actually summoned Consort Song to his bedchamber!"
As she spoke, Jiang Zi didn't forget to give the magpie a meaningful look.
The magpie noticed the girls' gazes and finally came to her senses.
“Your Majesty, we did hear this from the servants in Consort Song’s courtyard. They said that something happened to you and that you will never come back!”
"..."
Upon hearing the magpie's words, Jiang Zi was completely speechless.
Rong Xi rolled her eyes and offered no comment on Jiang Zi's subtle attempt to exonerate the Fourth Prince.
In truth, she didn't really have much affection for the Fourth Prince. The tiny bit of affection she had was due to the original owner's obsession.
However, the original owner of the Ulanara clan's obsession did not have a significant impact on Rong Xi.
Even if there are karmic entanglements, if the Fourth Prince really has another woman, Rong Xi will absolutely leave. And she'll take the baby in her belly with her.
"Alright, you two, stop talking!"
Rong Xi waved her hand, indicating that this was the end of the matter.
It's not difficult to find out whether the Fourth Prince really slept with Consort Song.
Generally speaking, the Prince's residence would have someone specifically responsible for recording such matters.
After all, it is necessary to ensure the legitimacy of the royal bloodline.
"Magpie, go and call Su Peisheng here!"
To find out who was responsible for recording these things, we only need to call Su Peisheng over and ask him.
"yes!"
The magpie immediately hopped away to call Su Peisheng.
When Su Peisheng heard that Rong Xi had summoned him, he was also taken aback. He looked at Xi Que and whispered, "Miss Xi Que, I wonder if the Princess Consort has something to ask me about?"
"Steward Su, how would this servant know about the master's affairs?"
Magpies are quite clever at this time.
The chattering magpies, right in front of Rong Xi, sometimes acted rather silly.
Most of the time, magpies are very intelligent. Trying to get information out of them or to trick them is almost certainly hopeless.
Su Peisheng pondered for a moment, but couldn't figure out what Rong Xi wanted to tell him.
However, he could not refuse the summons from his wife.
...
When Su Peisheng heard Rong Xi's instructions, he was taken aback for a moment, and then cautiously said, "Reporting to the Princess Consort, the Prince has not yet arranged for anyone other than the Princess Consort to serve him in bed. There is no such list for now!"
Upon hearing Su Peisheng's answer, Xique and Jiangzi, who were guarding Rong Xi, were both dumbfounded.
Well, Rong Xi was also a little dumbfounded.
Is the Fourth Prince really that self-disciplined?
This is totally illogical!
Although this is a cultivation world, the Fourth Prince is still a prince, bearing the heavy responsibility of ensuring the continuation of the royal bloodline. The fact that he only has one woman, the original owner of this body, Ulanara, is simply inhumane!
Is that so?
Rong Xi was a little annoyed.
She actually wanted to stay away from the Fourth Prince, after all, she felt that her beliefs differed from his. This proxy shopping service spanned hundreds of years and even transcended time and space.
But now, she doesn't have a good enough reason to leave!
Having inherited the body of the original Ulanara clan, Rong Xi became entangled with Ulanara, and this entanglement also involved the Fourth Prince.
If she doesn't have a sufficient reason to sever this karmic entanglement and simply walks away for her own selfish desires, she will surely suffer the consequences in the future.
Rong Xi had no choice but to believe in the theory of cause and effect.
Before this, whenever she wanted to leave, she would have a very bad feeling.
"Reporting to Your Highness, it is like this!"
Su Peisheng gave an affirmative answer again.
He would never dare to lie to Rong Xi about something like this.
Although the Fourth Prince was his master, Su Peisheng's intuition told him that he could not deceive the Princess Consort. Just thinking about how the Princess Consort had safely traveled to Wanyao Forest and Guiji Ridge on her way to the frontier, Su Peisheng knew he could not lie.
"In that case, you may leave now!"
After a moment's thought, Rong Xi waved Su Peisheng away.
After Su Peisheng left, Rong Xi's gaze fell on Xique and Jiangzi.
"Please forgive me, Master!"
Magpie and Crimson both knelt on the ground, especially Magpie, who looked ashamed.
"Get up and speak!"
Rong Xi waved her hand, signaling the two to stand up and talk.
"Thank you, Madam Xie!"
The two then stood up, but their expressions remained anxious.
"Tell me in detail, who told you that the Prince summoned Consort Song to his bedchamber? Was it someone serving in Consort Song's courtyard, or someone from Consort Li's courtyard?"
"What did you all hear at that time?"
Rong Xi wasn't stupid; in just a moment, she figured out the key to it.
If she were to quarrel with the Fourth Prince, it would inevitably cause him to distance himself from her. Even if they didn't quarrel, the Fourth Prince would still develop a prejudice against her because of this incident.
Of course, if the Fourth Prince patiently explains to her, then in order to quell Rong Xi's anger, he will definitely investigate the matter thoroughly. At that time, those involved will basically be punished, and may even lose their lives.
This isn't a conspiracy; it's an open strategy!
Magpie and Crimson Purple thought carefully for a while, but ultimately couldn't recall any useful clues. They had only overheard someone talking nearby. As for who the speaker was, or where they came from, neither of them had any idea.
"Indeed, it was a brilliant plan!"
Rong Xi's expression turned unusually serious.
"Master, have we been used as pawns?"
The magpie looked at Rong Xi and nervously opened its mouth.
"yes!"
Rong Xi chuckled, "Fortunately, you didn't cause any trouble!"
To be precise, if the actions of Magpie and Jiangzi cause Rongxi to fall out with the Fourth Prince, it will be very difficult for her to reconcile with him.
When they were in the capital, the Empress Dowager was there to support them.
Ulanara was not so much disliked by the Fourth Prince that he had to protect her.
But now they are in a small border town, and even if the Empress Dowager truly cares about her, she is unlikely to stand up for her. Moreover, the Empress Dowager may not even truly care about her.
The Empress Dowager protected Ulanara because her father had saved Emperor Kangxi's life.
But now that Emperor Kangxi has passed away, this life-saving grace has lost much of its significance.
