After saying this, she angrily threw the handkerchief in her hand and turned away.
Xiao Tao hesitated for a while with a pale face, but still quickly followed.
"Old Madam, you can't do this. If the prince leaves, this Prince Ming Mansion will no longer be the Prince Ming Mansion. How will we survive?"
"Humph! They're just trying to scare me. Don't I know my son well enough? He's tough on the outside, but soft on the inside. How could he have the heart to leave his mother here alone?"
"But...but what he just said didn't sound like a lie."
"I told you, I know my son. If you're scared, go!"
"Madam, that's not what I meant. I'll follow you wherever you go. I'm just afraid that the prince will really abandon you, and the servants will follow them. Then there will be only the two of us here. It's a bit scary in such a big house."
"Don't worry! The prince is just talking. With so many people, where can he find such a big yard? Just put your mind at ease. Let's go back and try on my new clothes..."
As she spoke, she swaggered towards the east wing. Thinking of how Luo Xue was furious because of her just now, she felt a little relieved.
Luo Xue dismissed all the servants and came to the room with Leng Ming before she asked cautiously:
"Are you really moving away?"
"Yes, if she doesn't move out, I'll torture her to death."
"But...but with so many of us, where can we move to? There's no such a big house available in the capital."
Leng Ming frowned and pondered for a while.
"No matter what, I absolutely cannot live with her anymore. She's the kind of person who won't turn back until she hits a wall. If I say something this time and don't do it, she'll be even more unscrupulous in the future. Then, you'll be angry and she'll be making trouble, and I'll be stuck in the middle. If this goes on, I think my life won't last long!"
"Don't talk nonsense."
Luo Xue glared at him.
"Okay, tomorrow morning, we'll go look for them. However, there are almost no available vacant houses in the capital! These palaces were all built by the late emperor before you princes came of age..."
At this point, she looked at Leng Ming as if she had thought of something.
"I have an idea."
"What method?"
Luo Xue narrowed her eyes proudly.
"Prince Yu's Mansion, there are only An An and Yi Cheng there now. Let's move in with them, and it will be easier to accommodate the servants."
Leng Ming shook his head in some embarrassment.
"Will this work?"
"Why not? I'll go to the palace to see the Emperor and Empress tomorrow morning."
Thinking of this idea, Luo Xue felt very excited.
She became even more excited at the thought that she could finally get rid of that naughty Chang.
…
While things were going on in Prince Ming's Mansion, things were also going on in Prince Xi's Mansion.
The four ladies-in-waiting stood in front of Leng Xi and Yu Qiaoqiao, while Xiao Cui and Concubine Li sat on either side.
After a moment of silence, Leng Xi finally spoke.
"You guys can stay and be my concubines. If you please me one day, I will consider making you concubines. But you must remember that in this palace, the main wife is the boss. No matter what you do, you must follow her lead. Do you understand?"
The four ladies bowed and saluted.
"Thank you, Lord Xi."
Seeing this, Xiao Cui, who had been waiting there for a long time, stood up directly holding her stomach, her face flushed, and protested dissatisfiedly.
"Why? I'm pregnant with your child, but you won't even give me a place. They just came and haven't even touched your bedside, yet you make them concubines. This is unfair to me."
Leng Xi half-closed his eyes and looked at her. "You are a maid, and you will always be a maid. How can you compare with them? Their families are either rich or noble. They have been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics since childhood, and are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. What do you have? Besides warming my bed, what else can you do?"
"Just because I have your child in my belly, and this child was born with the surname Leng."
Seeing that Xiao Cui was about to cry, Leng Xi waved his hands impatiently.
"I advise you to carry your child peacefully and give birth to him. I will take good care of you. If you continue to make trouble, I will not tolerate you."
Seeing that his words were very decisive, Concubine Li immediately turned cold.
"Xi'er, even if she's just a maid, you can't treat her like this. Even if you don't make her a concubine, you should at least make her a concubine. No matter what, you have to give her a name. Otherwise, what will happen to the child? You're going to let this child live under the shadow of a maid's mother for the rest of his life? Do you want people to poke his spine?"
"I have my own arrangements, so you don't need to worry about it."
"you……"
Concubine Li has suffered too much from Leng Xi recently, so she and Xiao Cui feel that they share the same fate.
Xiao Cui is domineering in front of others, but she is sure that Concubine Li is her lifeline. She tries her best to please Concubine Li, which is why Concubine Li speaks for her.
Concubine Li pondered for a moment, but couldn't help but defend Xiao Cui:
"No matter what, mother will fight for Xiao Cui and the child in her belly today. You appointed four beautiful women as concubines at once, so can't you also reward her?"
In fact, Leng Xi didn't want to give Xiao Cui a name, he was afraid that once he gave her a name, she would become arrogant.
He still shook his head with a cold face.
"When she gives birth to the child, regardless of whether it's a boy or a girl, I will give her a reward."
Hearing this, Xiao Cui still pouted in dissatisfaction.
"Then Your Majesty, do you not intend to stay in my room overnight before I give birth to the child?"
