After Jiaming finished paying her respects to the princes and princesses, she sat down and continued to grumble to herself: Is this Eighth Prince's wife targeting her just because she and Lady Li are concubines, while she is in the camp of the principal wife?
This is utterly baffling, and it's also known as—being sick!
"Little sister Guarjia, you're really unlucky. You just happened to run into him when he was in a bad mood!" As soon as Jiaming sat down, a soft, gentle and pleasant voice came to her ears.
Looking in the direction of the sound, it was Guarjia from the Fifth Prince's mansion.
They met at the New Year's Eve banquet last year. Although they were from different ethnic groups, they had a mutual liking for each other because they shared the same surname.
Sure enough, as soon as Jiaming sat down, he started chatting with her.
"Oh? Is she in a bad mood?" Jiaming was happy to have someone answer her question, and immediately asked in a low voice that only the two of them could hear, "What's wrong with her? She's in a bad mood, but I'm from the Fourth Prince's mansion."
The implication was that she was the Eighth Prince's wife, and I was from the Fourth Prince's household, so why was she throwing a tantrum at her?
That's incredibly rude, unreasonable, and disrespectful!
Lady Guarjia glanced around cautiously, and after noticing that the ladies at the Fujin's table weren't paying attention and were talking amongst themselves, she whispered, "That one has a terrible temper; she can't stand any concubine."
!
That person definitely has a bad temper!
Having heard of the Eighth Prince's wife's great achievements, Jiaming sighed, then immediately felt speechless: "Even if you can't stand it, you can't act like this! If she wants to interfere, she can interfere in her own household. What does it have to do with her that I'm the Fourth Prince's concubine! It's ridiculous!" She added in her mind, "She's sick and needs to take her medicine!"
"Hehe!" Guarjia also felt that the Eighth Prince's wife's temper was unreasonable, so she could only laugh awkwardly.
Just then, a charming voice suddenly joined in: "Of course, it's because that concubine in the manor is pregnant!"
Is the concubine in the Eighth Prince's mansion pregnant?
I'm shocked to hear this!
Huh, what's this?
Jiaming turned her head slightly and realized that just as she was speechless with emotion, Nara, who was standing very close to her on her left, had become the third person besides Guarjia to hear her words, since she hadn't been careful to control her voice.
However, the key point is not her complaining to Lady Guarjia about the Eighth Prince's wife being discovered, but the information she revealed.
Jiaming was shocked. "Is someone in the Eighth Prince's mansion really pregnant?"
Hmm, in the memories of the woman who wanted to possess him, it seems that the birth times of the Eighth Prince's only two children were not recent!
Forget it, what am I thinking about?
The butterfly effect is also possible!
Jiaming didn't delve into the matter. After all, nothing strange (the kind of things time travelers like to do) had been reported at the Eighth Prince's residence, so there was no need to investigate further.
The Guarjia woman to Jiaming's right was also unaware of this matter.
Moreover, women generally share a love for gossip, and her eyes immediately lit up.
They watched Nara with great interest, eagerly anticipating her revealing the explosive news about the Eighth Prince's mansion.
Nara felt increasingly eager to gossip as Jiaming and Guarjia looked at her with such anticipation.
However, she is still a very cautious person.
She glanced cautiously at the table next to the wives of the princes, where no one was watching and the noise was still going on. So she whispered, "It's true, I heard it's a maid without a title!"
Compared to the Guarjia clan, the Nara clan was bolder.
She was only worried about the Eighth Prince's wife and the nanny around her; as for the others around her, she didn't care at all if they overheard her.
Moreover, they were all concubines, and they didn't get along with the Eighth Prince's wife, who despised all concubines. They weren't afraid that the Eighth Prince's wife would complain to them.
Jiaming blinked, still not understanding: "But what does this have to do with me and Li Shi? If she's angry, shouldn't she be taking it out on that maid?"
Nara looked at Jiaming with pity, "You're just unlucky, you just happened to run into her line of fire!"
She still didn't understand and continued, "Isn't the Eighth Princess Consort known for her fiery temper? How could she hold back until Li Shi and I arrived before erupting?" As she asked, her questioning gaze swept over Guarjia and Nara.
.
This Guarjia woman knew a little, so she said softly, "She threw a tantrum before!"
“However, when you and the Fourth Prince’s wife came in, the atmosphere was quite good. I saw her eyes suddenly fill with fire.” Jiaming understood the implication of Nara’s words. It turned out that the harmonious atmosphere between them and the Prince’s wife had provoked her.
After all, she now dislikes the pregnant maids in the Eighth Prince's mansion very much.
Having learned all this, Jiaming put aside her doubts about the Eighth Prince's wife's inexplicable attitude and focused on listening to the gossip about the Eighth Prince's mansion that Guarjia and Nara were talking about.
“Given the Eighth Prince’s fierce nature, that maid is probably…” Just then, Guarjia suddenly remembered something and exclaimed, “Oh dear, I haven’t received any news from the Eighth Prince’s residence. Sister Guarjia lives so close to the Eighth Prince’s residence, just across the street, yet she hasn’t heard anything either. Could it be that the Eighth Prince’s wife really caused her to miscarry!”
"No!" Nara said mysteriously, "Guess what happened in that mansion?"
Guarjia: "Given the fierce nature of the Eighth Prince's wife, that woman must have had a hard time. You said she hasn't miscarried yet, so could she have been locked in the woodshed and starved or something?"
It's no wonder that Lady Guarjia thought so maliciously of the Eighth Prince's wife; she had a history of such behavior.
It is said that quite a few of the concubines in the Eighth Prince's mansion were whipped to death by him.
After hearing this, Nara shook her head and denied Guarjia's guess, then she turned her gaze to Jiaming.
Jiaming pretended to ponder for a moment, then frowned and said with difficulty, "I can't guess!"
In fact, based on Nara's mysterious appearance and the mocking glances she gave to the Eighth Prince's wife, she had guessed a little.
It seems that the family's relief is not a good thing for the Eighth Prince's wife.
However, she couldn't appear too clever; she still wanted to continue chatting with Nara and Guarjia, and she couldn't let them feel that talking to her was too boring.
In her view, giving others a chance to be proud is also a skill in getting along well with people.
Just now, Nara was smugly dropping a bombshell: "Eighth Master is so protective, that guy has nowhere to vent his anger! So, he can only vent it on others!"
"No way?" Guarjia asked in disbelief.
Jiaming was also skeptical, "Didn't everyone say that the two of them have a very good relationship?"
Nara said with exasperation, "Aren't all men the same? Women are like clothes, but sons are very important!"
"Indeed!" Guarjia agreed wholeheartedly.
However, Jiaming didn't think that made sense.
You should know that, according to the memories of the person in her mind who wanted to possess her body, that Eighth Prince had endured the pressure of being childless and had been with his Eighth Princess for a long time!
Even after those two women became pregnant and gave birth, the Eighth Prince's wife remained the apple of his eye.
However, it's best for her not to voice this objection.
