Little did they know that the pink bubble had just appeared when it was popped with a "poof".
"The Princess Consort has arrived!"
The eunuch's shrill announcement not only punctured the rosy bubble, but also felt like a burning sensation. Yinzhi immediately pushed Xitala Gege away, stood up, and straightened his clothes.
Then, as if to conceal something, he slowly sat down, picked up his teacup, took a sip of tea, and then said, "Come in!"
The whole process took only two minutes.
When Princess Xitala was left aside, she was stiff with anger, followed by immense resentment.
"Why?! Just because she's the princess consort, the master treats me like this? I'm completely devoted to him. I'm pregnant, isn't the master afraid of hurting the child?"
Princess Xitala got stuck in a rut because of Yinzhi's shaking of her hand. In fact, Yinzhi was sensible; he just wanted to shake her off and didn't use force.
Yinzhi was unaware that this act of throwing her away had caused Princess Xitala to harbor great resentment towards the Fujin (the future emperor's wife).
Even if he knew, Yinzhi wouldn't care at all. He was just a child; once he had a child, he would spoil him a little more.
How can anyone compare to the Princess Consort?
After entering, He Zhuo bowed to Yin Zhi according to custom and then asked, "I heard that Princess Xitala is not feeling well. Since it concerns the heir, I, as the Princess Consort, have to take it seriously. The child in your belly will call me 'Empress Mother' in the future. By the way, has the imperial physician arrived?"
"Thank you for your concern, Madam. I feel much better now." Princess Xitala had recovered from her shock.
He stiffly stood up to greet He Zhuo when he entered, but He Zhuo pressed him back down. Now he is standing up to express his gratitude.
"Thank you for your concern, Madam. I am well." Though she was trying to hide it, Granny Shi could see the resentment and bitterness in her eyes.
Granny Shi could see it, and He Zhuoqi knew it in return.
Pretending not to have seen anything, she gently patted Princess Xitala's shoulder and helped her sit back down.
“You are carrying my child now, you are very precious. We sisters don’t need to thank each other. Your belly deserves all the attention it deserves.”
Khoja smiled gently, but Hitara's heart was stiff. She did not want to deal with it, but because her master was present, she had no choice but to deal with it, so her expression was somewhat stiff: "Thank you, Fujin."
He Zhuo smiled, but Yin Zhi, his bedmate, sensed something was wrong, or rather, he felt guilty and uneasy from the moment He Zhuo appeared.
He was caught by his wife being intimate with his concubine.
This is so frustrating!!!
When the eunuch announced the arrival of the Fujin (princess), Yinzhi, that big pig's trotter, was only feeling guilty. Now, with added irritability, he suddenly realized, under the Fujin's gentle and soft words, how inappropriate it was that he hadn't returned to the main courtyard but had come to Princess Xitala's place.
That's absolutely inappropriate!
Doing this is disgraceful to the Princess Consort.
He Zhuo ignored Yin Zhi's inner turmoil, not even glancing at him. He simply looked around and touched his nail guards: "Sister, where is the nanny? Didn't I ask Mother for a nanny to take care of me during my pregnancy?"
This "sister" made Yinzhi's teeth ache. He knew his own wife well, and he preferred to ignore the people in the inner quarters. When did this affectionate "sister" come and go?
My bad feeling is getting stronger.
It wasn't just Yinzhi who had a bad feeling; Princess Xitala was also very uneasy seeing her wife like this, her hands sweating as she wrung out her handkerchief.
"Reporting to Madam, the nanny has gone to fetch the medicine to help with the pregnancy."
"Hmm, not bad." He Zhuo seemed quite satisfied with this answer.
Turning to Yinzhi, that big pig's trotter (?(∞)?)?, she said, "Your Highness, Princess Xitala says she's not feeling well. Should we slow down the pregnancy-stabilizing medicine and have the imperial physician examine her again, or adjust the prescription? We Manchus all hope for many children and many blessings. Mother is really hoping this baby will be a healthy grandson of the emperor."
For some reason, Yinzhi could detect sarcasm in his wife's words, even though everything she said seemed perfectly normal.
