The nanny who served the Crown Princess was the wet nurse she brought from her mother's home, so she was very loyal. After so many years, she was also very capable in the mansion, so she was naturally clear about what happened last night.

"It's probably because Concubine Zong Liangdi intercepted the Crown Prince and took him back to his room. Also, she has been too popular recently, so the concubines are unhappy."

The Crown Princess shook her head, a look of disdain on her face.

Since she entered the royal family, it was destined that her husband would not always be devoted to her, so she understood this point early on.

As the Crown Princess, she only needs to do her job well.

Now that her two children are both smart and clever, she can say that her future is bright, so she really doesn't care about the addition of Zong Liangdi.

Even if she gave birth to a child in the future, it might not be a bad thing.

What's more, with such a group of "jealous women" around, Zong Liangdi may not be pregnant with good news.

Thinking of this, she sighed and said.

"Let's go and listen to what they are saying."

"Yes, madam."

The maid helped the Crown Princess to Ninghui Hall, which was the place where the prince's female relatives in the harem paid their respects to the Crown Princess. They didn't have to go there every day, but there were about ten days a month when they had to be there.

Therefore, when the Crown Princess arrived today, she saw that the room was already full of people.

"I, your humble servant, greet the Crown Princess. May Your Majesty be well and at peace."

For a moment, even she herself was a little dazed.

There are already so many "sisters" in the Eastern Palace. No wonder these old ones are very afraid of the new ones.

He sneered in his heart, but pretended to be calm and warm on the surface. He sat at the top and spoke to everyone.

"Sisters, there is no need to be polite. Just stand up. Nanny Lin, please serve the tea."

There were four concubines, six concubines in law, and more than ten concubines who were not included in the royal register. Now they were all sitting in Ninghui Hall, which was truly a spectacular sight.

Some of them have aged, while others are still as young as bamboo shoots after spring rain. The Crown Princess sat at the top and could see it all clearly.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were intentionally or unintentionally looking at Zong Liangdi, the new favorite of the Eastern Palace. There was resentment in her eyes, but she herself seemed very calm.

He even spoke to the Crown Princess with a smile on his face.

"The tea here is good, but it's a pity that I can't drink it."

After saying that, she stroked her belly quite proudly, looked at the concubines with a provocative look and said.

"Last night, I felt unwell, and His Royal Highness asked the imperial physician to see me. He said that I was almost two months pregnant."

Almost two months? She had been in the Eastern Palace for less than three months, and now she was almost two months pregnant. This news was really shocking.

Especially those who have been in the Eastern Palace for many years but have no children, their eyes are almost popping out, full of reluctance.

The Crown Princess, on the other hand, was stunned for only a moment, but soon understood. The smile on her face was sincere and surprising, and she quickly spoke.

"This is a happy event. The Eastern Palace hasn't had such good news for half a year. Sister Zong is really blessed. She has been serving His Highness for such a short time and she has achieved this. She is really capable."

Then he gave instructions to Nanny Lin behind him.

"Go to the warehouse and pick out some top-quality herbs to send to the imperial physician to make medicine for my sister's pregnancy."

The Crown Princess is not stupid. She would not send the medicinal materials directly to Zong Liangdi's house, so as to avoid having to blame her if anything goes wrong.

After entering the Eastern Palace, Concubine Zong Liangdi had been dependent on the Crown Princess for her life, so at this moment she stood up with joy to express her gratitude.

"Thank you for your concern, Princess. I will take good care of her and live up to your kindness."

Such an attitude made the concubines grit their teeth, but they could not utter any words of resentment, otherwise, if something happened to her, it would bring shame to themselves.

After the greetings were over, Zong Liangdi received a lot of blessings, but it was a pity that some of them were sincere and fake, all hidden under a hypocritical smile.

She is not stupid and knows what is going on here.

Afterwards, she made the excuse of feeling unwell and hid in her yard every day to take care of her pregnancy.

But her pregnancy days were much more boring than Du Jingyi's.

In the general's mansion, it has been nearly half a month since Xing Zhao and others were sent away, and every day Du Jingyi either learns to play chess with his fourth aunt or accompanies his grandmother to teach Shang Xueniang the rules.

Her life was fulfilling and comfortable, but the only thing that bothered her was the invitation to the Spring Banquet sent from Princess Yuehua's mansion.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

When she thought about the fact that Princess Fu and she were of the same opinion, she didn't want to go.

Old Madam Gu saw that she was unhappy, but she was not worried at all, and said to Du Jingyi.

"Don't worry. You don't want to go, and the Guo family doesn't want to go either. Isn't it that the date for the engagement hasn't been decided yet? There's only one good day at the end of the month, so isn't it normal for them to go together?"

After being reminded by Old Madam Gu, Du Jingyi smiled, and his whole body relaxed a lot, and he even spoke in a slightly coquettish tone.

"Grandmother is really amazing. She relieved my granddaughter-in-law's distress with just a few words. The baby in my belly has grown up. I don't want to go to a banquet outside easily. Who knows what will happen?"

"Well, we should be more careful. I think it's bigger than at the beginning of the month."

After hearing this, Du Jingyi reached out and touched her increasingly round belly, showing great affection.

There was also a lot of concern in Madam Gu's eyes. After all, this was their first child. If they took good care of themselves, they would suffer less during the birth. So she agreed with Du Jingyi's idea and should go out less often.

As the grandfather and grandson were talking, Xue Niang, who was copying scriptures to practice her concentration, suddenly spoke.

"Sister-in-law Liu doesn't want to pretend to be sick, so why bother?"

"You are just too naive. Even if your sixth sister-in-law doesn't go, since the invitation has been sent to the general's mansion, someone should be sent. If it's not me, then it should be your eldest sister-in-law. Why bother sending someone to make this trip? As long as the date for the engagement falls on the same day, then no one in our family needs to go, and it will be legitimate."

After hearing this, Xue Niang nodded, then laughed and said.

"Grandma is really smart. My granddaughter understands."

Madam Gu gave her a loving smile in return, then pointed at her pen and motioned for her to continue.

Du Jingyi and Old Madam Gu were talking about other things, and Xu Laiyuan returned to its previous tranquility.

About an hour later, Nanny Dou arrived.

As expected, speak of the devil and he will appear.
