"If there hadn't been so many sacrifices by the soldiers, how could the people live and work in peace and contentment today! You are pregnant with the emperor's child, so you must take good care of him.

By the way, is the emperor in good health? He is busy creating an heir while managing the government, so he must be very tired on weekdays..."

Chu Weiyue spoke eloquently but did not finish.

Just a few simple words nailed Wen Chenxuan to the pillar of shame.

We are not fools and we quickly compare ourselves in our minds.

Wen Jingchi was too busy to have children, but Wen Chenxuan made two concubines pregnant in succession. It was obvious who was only interested in pleasure.

Chu Ranxin was so angry that he was shaking all over. He had wanted to bring bad luck to Chu Weiyue, but he was actually ridiculed by her!

Even the emperor's reputation was trampled upon. If Wen Chenxuan knew about this, it would be disastrous!

In front of so many people, Song was not willing to suffer a loss, and instead snorted in dissatisfaction.

"Anyway, your two sisters are both pregnant, and the children they give birth to will inherit the throne, which is something some people can't even hope for in their lifetime.

Some children are born into a prosperous life, while others are destined to live in rags and work as farmers for others...."

These words were clearly a mockery of Chu Weiyue.

Even if she gave birth to a child with Wen Jingchi in the future, she could only defend the country for her grandson.

Chu Weiyue picked up the tea and took a sip.

"Women's views are indeed foolish! Now Wateng and the Kingdom of Jin are eyeing us covetously. It is urgent to defeat them. If these two major problems are not resolved, the people will have difficulty living and working in peace. When the nest is overturned, how can the eggs remain intact?

By then, not to mention that the common people will have a hard time, the people in high positions will be the first to suffer..."

She didn't say it too directly. These people were all wives and daughters of civil and military officials. They naturally understood these most basic principles.

If we can't deal with Wateng and Jin Guo, there's no way Chu Ranxin and Lin Zixi's child will be born safely.

Even the high and mighty Emperor Wen Chenxuan would be in trouble.

These words were like a loud slap in the face of Song.

She was so angry that she clenched her fingers and couldn't say a word in rebuttal.

She didn't understand what was happening in the court and didn't know how to interrupt, for fear of making a fool of herself again.

He just cleared his throat and smiled to smooth things over.

"I didn't expect that you, Wei Yue, care about national affairs. The Ninth Prince is lucky to marry you. But then again, the worst of the three unfilial acts is not having a successor. The most important thing for you to do right now is to get pregnant quickly so that we, the elders, can rest assured. The one we are most worried about is your grandmother. She..."

At this time, grandma happened to come over.

When he heard her mention his name, he glared at her fiercely.

Before Song could finish her words, she met her fierce gaze and dared not say a word.

But grandma lectured her confidently, "Song, you don't know the importance of the matter. Wei Yue is now the princess. What is your status? How can you lecture her?"

"If you were her biological mother, or the Marquis's legal wife, it would be understandable, but the key is that you are just a concubine..."

Song had always felt inferior because of her status, and now that she was blatantly dragged out, her face instantly turned horribly dark.

With the old lady in charge, she didn't dare to say any more nonsense, for fear of being openly retorted by the old lady.

She is old, so she can't care even if what is said is a bit unpleasant.

It finally came to an end at dusk.

After seeing off the others, it was time for their family dinner.

Because his elder brother also rushed back from the northwest, Chu Weiyue deliberately stayed in the Marquis' Mansion.

Wen Jingchi has some important matters to attend to, so he has to go back first.

Chu Ranxin and Lin Zixi also stayed at home today. The emperor specially allowed them to stay in the marquis's mansion for a few days before returning to the palace.

It was late at night and everyone was asleep. Chu Weiyue yawned but couldn't fall asleep.

Wen Jingchi usually accompanies me when I sleep, and I fall asleep almost as soon as I hit the bed.

He has a special smell on him, which is very much like a hypnotic.

Now that he is not around, even the long nights feel even lonelier and more desolate...

Since I can't sleep, I might as well go for a walk outside.

Put on a coat and stroll in the garden.

I saw that the lights in the yard where Chu Ranxin lived were still on.

Chu Weiyue was puzzled. She was pregnant and shouldn't sleep so late. It was not good for her health at all.

At this time, a sneaky figure was seen.

Chu Weiyue was shocked. It turned out to be Song!

There was nothing shameful about a mother-daughter meeting, but not long after Song went in, all the maids went out.

Even the maid that Chu Ranxin brought from the palace was driven out by them.

Song's most trusted maid stood outside the door, apparently keeping watch for them.

Looking at the dark moonlight, Chu Weiyue curled her lips slightly.

Judging from the situation, if she guessed correctly, this mother and daughter must be discussing something shady.

There's no way to hide it from her!

There was a crooked tree in Chu Ranxin's backyard. Chu Weiyue was an expert at climbing trees and he climbed up the wall in no time.

Walk a few meters along the wall and go down another tree.

I came to the window and heard a low murmur.

Chu Weiyue pricked up her ears and listened carefully, wishing she could stick to it.

Chu Ranxin's face looked grim, and he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, and he grabbed Song's hand.

"Mother, what should I do now? I don't know what happened to me. I actually told such a big lie. It would be terrible if someone found out. I would definitely lose my life..."

The more she thought about it, the more confused she became, and tears rolled down her cheeks.

Song gritted her teeth, made up her mind, and used a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

"Don't worry, mother will solve all your problems. Since we have decided to take this path, we will go all the way and turn the fake into the real!"

"Mother, do you mean to follow my previous plan? But..."

Chu Ranxin bit his lower lip tightly, completely at a loss.

It seemed like a good idea at the time, but now that I have calmed down, I feel that this strategy is really risky.

She doesn't have many people she trusts in the palace, so she is alone and cannot do anything.

Song gently patted Chu Ranxin's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, we can develop informants. Recently, many people want to curry favor with you. We can select them and let them join our pirate ship. This way, we will have help."

"The palace is just like any other place. Everyone wants to find a big tree to enjoy the shade, and the eunuchs and ladies-in-waiting are no exception.

Everyone has something they can use to deceive you. As long as you use it to deceive them, and use threats and inducements, they will definitely take the bait. By then, the fact that you are pregnant will become true even if it’s fake…”

Song explained his plan in detail.

Chu Ranxin was moved and threw herself into her arms. "Mother, I know you are resourceful and can definitely help me solve the problem. Then do as you say, and then find a child to replace the prince."
