As the saying goes, even an honest judge cannot settle family affairs. How could Yao Niang possibly care about the affairs of Prince Jinyang's Palace? Princess Lanfeng came here as a foreign marriage. When the old Prince Jinyang was still alive, she was considered respectful and careful, which was considered quite good in the palace.

Even if it was exposed, it would be the palace's business. If it wasn't exposed, would she ask Princess Lan Feng to abort her pregnancy? Of course, she didn't know whether the pregnancy was true or not.

Therefore, Yao Niang said on the surface: "This matter needs to be considered carefully. My daughter-in-law should find out a little first. This will be more thorough. But we must not make a fuss. If it gets out, it will be a royal scandal."

Empress Hong was very satisfied to hear this. It was a good idea to let the Crown Princess handle this matter.

In fact, there may be another feeling that Queen Hong finds the situation very difficult.

In fact, the old hands in the palace usually try to push things off if they can. It's not that they are irresponsible, but that too much meddling may not necessarily do good, but if you don't manage well, you'll have problems.

After Yao Niang came back from greeting, she yawned again. It wasn't that she was really sleepy, but she felt particularly at ease with Gao Xuance by her side, and it seemed that she wanted to make up for all the sleepiness she had felt before.

Xun Ge'er is also a sleep god. It is no exaggeration to say that this child is very similar to Yao Niang in every way.

Gao Xuance was impressed by both of them, but he wanted to go out with Yao Niang to relax for a while, and said, "Aren't we going to take a hot spring bath? We went there more than ten years ago. Don't you want to go now?"

"Mother, I want to go too." Xun Ge'er grabbed the corner of Yao Niang's clothes and wanted to follow her.

Gao Xuance said quickly: "You can't go, you are too young, and besides, there is a difference between men and women."

"What's the difference between men and women? He's not that old yet." Yao Niang laughed.

"That won't work either." Gao Xuance pinched her chin with a hint of ambiguity.

The couple both understood what Gao Xuance meant. The steaming hot spring pool made Gao Xuance excited. Yao Niang was only wearing a tight dress, and her face became even redder in the mist.

After a while, Yao Niang lay on the couch to rest. Her legs were weak and sore, but she felt very comfortable.

Not to mention Xuan Ce, who hugged her and said, "It's so comfortable. I always felt very suffocated in the palace. Now that I'm out, I feel better."

"Yes, every time I come here I feel that the sky is high for birds to fly freely and the sea is vast for fish to jump freely." Yao Niang yawned after she said this.

Of course, Yao Niang also had something on her mind. She said to Gao Xuance, "My mother told me today that the Queen Mother of Jinyang, the Princess Lanfeng of Wusi Zang, seemed to have other problems and asked me to handle it. I couldn't refuse, so I had to agree. But privately, I don't really want to get involved."

"What? Secret pregnancy?" Gao Xuance was shocked.

Yao Niang covered his mouth and said, "Keep your voice down and don't get so excited, okay? To be honest, she was so young and married an old man, the Prince of Jinyang, and now the Prince of Jinyang is dead. If she can have a night of pleasure with someone else, there is nothing wrong with that. But if the child is born, I'm afraid people will say that it is a disgrace to the royal family."

"If she handles it herself, it would be fine, but if her belly is big, it won't be concealed." Gao Xuance said meaningfully.

In fact, he wanted to scold Princess Lan Feng, after all, you, a princess who married into a foreign country, actually did such a shameless thing. But Yao Niang felt the same way. He knew that people are naturally lustful and greedy. If he really couldn't succeed, would Yao Niang also find someone else?

Thinking of this, he was still a little scared.

He has been fighting in the battlefields for many years, and his skin is rougher than before, but Yao Niang is still as slim and graceful as a young girl in her twenties. Because she has been resting recently, her face is as rosy as a petal, white and tender, which makes people never get tired of her.

Will she abandon herself?

Yao Niang had no idea what Gao Xuance meant by these words, so she said, "That's what I think. She is also a person of propriety. If that's the case, why should I expose her? As for what happened, if I expose this kind of private matter, what good will it do to me and everyone else?"

Gao Xuance nodded: "You are right."

Regardless of whether she is the future queen mother or not, she does not have to interfere in private matters. If she does, Princess Lan Feng will be upset and it will also damage the diplomatic relations between the two countries.

The autumn hunt was a rare time for the women to relax. Princess Zhenyang seemed to have returned to her childhood and had a lot of fun. Yao Niang also occasionally went out for a horse ride, but more often she would walk around and look at the mountains and rivers. When she was exhausted, she would go to bed and feel very comfortable.

Of course, there are also some etiquette matters that need to be done, such as meeting Princess Ursula, talking to the ladies in front of the Queen, and so on.

As for Yao Niang's identity, she just needs to smile along and not overdo it. She is the second in command now and cannot overshadow the queen. She just needs to be cautious in her words and actions and not stand out too much.

Obviously, Empress Hong was not very satisfied with her performance, and she even said to Lady Mo: "Normally, the Crown Princess is very talkative, but why is it that she is so silent these days? The more people there are, the less she speaks."

"The Crown Princess is young, so you need to support her more." Lady Mo smiled.

"Yes, she is still young." Queen Hong took off her hairpin and thought about Princess Lan Feng again. She saw that Yao Niang didn't make any movement. Although she knew that this matter should not be publicized, she was still a little anxious.

She was still wondering if Yao Niang didn't have enough staff.

After all, to be honest, my daughter-in-law is a bit lazy. She doesn't usually go around greeting people and doesn't seem to like socializing.

When she first entered the palace, she traveled frequently and was very polite. But after becoming the Crown Princess, she became silent. This is not acceptable.

She said this to Lady Mo, but Lady Mo thought to herself, if the Crown Princess is too outstanding, you may not like her.

However, all in all, the Queen is a good mother-in-law. Although sometimes she can't understand some things, she is still very reasonable.

As for the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it is an eternal problem. Let alone the empress being picky about the crown princess, it is something that happens in every household.

Princess Hong of Jinyang had just returned from the Queen's visit. She knew her husband was a playboy, and although he only brought her here this time, the life she led now was worse than if he had not come.

Thinking of this, I couldn't breathe properly.

Yao Niang was worried that Xun Ge'er was walking slowly, but when she saw Princess Jinyang rubbing her chest with a pale face, she stepped forward and asked, "What happened? Are you okay? Do you want a doctor to come and see you?"

Princess Jinyang thought it was Yao Niang who came up, and she was ready to pay her respects, but Yao Niang stopped her: "This place is close to where I live, you go to my place first and take a rest, and let the doctor come over to take a look."

It just so happened that Princess Jinyang didn't want to go back, so she agreed. She was a member of the Hong family, and the Hong family generally had a very subtle feeling towards Yao Niang.

It was probably because after Gao Xuance became the crown prince, the Hong family didn't get anything good, and the status of the Hong family was not as good as that of the Luo family, because everyone knew that the crown prince was very close to the Luo family, and even the crown prince's grandson was born to the crown princess Luo.

Members of the Hong family usually have to pay their respects to the Crown Princess and be extremely respectful when they enter the palace.

But if her aunt had not been so favored, how could the prince be favored? Of course, the prince himself has his own abilities, but if he was not the son of Queen Hong, he would probably not be taken seriously.

Just like the former eldest prince, he was brave and capable, but he just didn't have the opportunity.

Yao Niang didn't care what she thought. She asked someone to invite a doctor to come over and let her rest. She also kindly said to Princess Jinyang: "I will send someone to tell your old concubine that you are resting here, so that she doesn't have to worry."

This is also very normal. If the elders follow you out, you must say something to them.

As expected, Princess Jinyang blurted out, "No need."

After saying it, I realized that I spoke too quickly, so I explained: "Our concubine recently met with people from her hometown, and they got along very well. There is no need to disturb her interest because of my little thing."

Yao Niang nodded, but felt strange again.

Princess Jinyang was also very distressed. To be honest, she only discovered that her mother-in-law had done that by accident.

In fact, when she got married, her mother-in-law was very young, and the relationship between the two was a little awkward at first. Fortunately, Princess Lan Feng was born a princess after all, and she had a lot of aura and was not picky. She had a good relationship with her mother-in-law. Princess Lan Feng often felt sorry for her and praised how romantic Gao Jian was.

Her husband knew that he was not necessarily a bad person and he still respected her as his wife, but he just liked women.

Of course, he prided himself on being romantic but not vulgar, and often collected beauties. He also boasted that he had obtained all the beauties in the world, and they were no worse than those in the palace.

Emperor Jianzhang had a pair of Hu concubines in the palace, and he also got a pair of twin Hu concubines, with green eyes and snow-white skin, just like Persian cats.

She once thought that Princess Blue Phoenix was a good mother-in-law who stood on her side, so she was very filial to her mother-in-law and served her attentively on weekdays.

How could she have known that this mother and son were actually together? If she hadn't discovered it quietly, she would still be kept in the dark.

She still remembered that day, it was raining heavily, she usually went to bed early. Gao Jian usually came to her place for seven or eight days, and the rest of the time he would go out to have sex with other women, which was a way for her to have an account and have sex with other people.

It was raining heavily, and she was not worried about Gao Jian, but only about her mother-in-law. This princess who had married from Wusi Zang was said to be afraid of water. But she did not expect that when she took people to see her mother-in-law that night, she would not see her mother-in-law at all, and just said that she had gone to bed.

She was a little worried, so she walked for a while and then turned back. Unexpectedly, she saw a man flashing out of her mother-in-law's back door. She would recognize the man even if he turned into ashes. If he was not her husband, then who else could he be?

This kind of thing happened more than once. There was even one time when the mother-in-law stretched her legs under the table to seduce Gao Jian while she was talking to her. What's worse, even the rockery was left with pink underwear full of her pussy.

Not only could she not tell anyone, she also had to clean up the mess and even pretend she didn't know.

If this shocking scandal were to be made public, the iron-hat title of the Jinyang Palace would be gone. It was earned through the military merits of two generations, and her son would have to inherit it.

But she really couldn't bear it anymore.
