"That's right, actually the Crown Princess is quite kind to us. At least she doesn't treat us unfairly. Our lives are even better than those concubines of lower status.
You don't know, my sister heard that when the eldest wife was still alive, whenever she was wronged in the Yanxi Palace, she would go back to the eldest prince and harass his concubines and princesses. Their lives were nothing compared to ours."
"Sister, I have something else to do. Even before the Crown Princess entered the palace, sister was not favored by His Highness. It would be better for her to stay in the backyard and not bother anyone.
As long as the Crown Princess doesn't make things difficult for my sister, I can live a good life.
Sisters, if you really want to spread rumors about the Crown Princess, please don’t bring your younger sister along.
My younger sister doesn't have many aspirations. She just wants to live, live well, and not die suddenly like Li Jia.
The person who spoke half-squatted and saluted to everyone before leaving. She wasn't crazy. She dared to cause trouble for the Crown Princess. She must be tired of living.
Seeing her leave, the others didn't say anything. After all, before the Crown Princess entered the palace, she was indeed not favored by the Crown Prince, so this favor was not important to her.
But they are different. They have been favored by the lady to some extent. Three years of not being favored by her is enough.
"Since the sisters think we should fight the Crown Princess, then we must unite. Yuqing Palace cannot be controlled by the Crown Princess alone."
"It is said that today is the full moon banquet for the Second and Third Princes. It is reasonable for Your Highness to stay in the Crown Princess's courtyard, but starting tomorrow, we should also compete with the Crown Princess for favor."
"That's it. I don't ask for anything else. As long as Your Highness gives me a son or a daughter, I don't want to waste the rest of my life."
......
Several people walked towards the front hall while talking. After all, they were the prince's concubines and the stepmothers of the twins, so it was not too much for them to attend the twins' full moon banquet.
After they all left, Yinzhen and Yin? stood up. Just as they were about to complain about the restless women in Yuqing Palace, they heard another voice from the front.
After looking at each other helplessly, they carried Hongmin, who had accidentally fallen asleep while they were eavesdropping, and hid them behind them together.
"Nine Brother, my legs are numb from squatting just now. I just stood up and was about to take a break, why is there another person coming?"
"I don't know, and I don't know who it is. Why do those who talk privately always come here? Hold Hongmin tight. I want to see who's coming this time. You're really clueless."
Yin curled his lips, feeling that his ninth brother disliked him, but he was not sure. What if he said it out loud and was called stupid?
"Is Princess Guo Luoluo used to it?"
When this familiar voice sounded, Yinzhen and Yin? were both a little confused. Why did it sound like a mynah bird was talking?
"I'm used to it. Thank you, Eighth Prince, for your concern. I heard that Ninth Prince and Tenth Prince have a very good relationship. Why didn't I see them today?"
"My ninth and tenth brothers are probably out having fun again. I'll go find them soon. Today is the full moon banquet for the Crown Prince's twins, so we can't let them cause any trouble."
"Eighth Prince, you can't spoil your younger brothers like this, otherwise they will learn bad things. Besides, aren't you ashamed of having to clean up their messes every time?"
Yin'er's face darkened as he remembered that Princess Guo Luoluo was the daughter born to Prince An's concubine.
Having been raised in Prince An’s mansion since childhood, do you think you are more noble than Prince An’s legitimate granddaughter?
What does that mean now? He's saying that his tenth brother and he'll only cause trouble for his eight brother. It's hilarious. He's actually trying to destroy their brotherly relationship.
Yinzhen also had an ugly expression on his face. He was the son of the imperial concubine and the prince with the highest status besides the crown prince.
If we really want to talk about the status of these princes, then there is no prince in the palace with a lower status than my brother. After all, Concubine Liang came from the Xinzheku.
I thought Yinsi would speak for them, but unexpectedly he just smiled helplessly.
"I know it's not right for them to do this, but they are princes, and have been spoiled since childhood, so it's normal for them to be a little overbearing.
As their elder brother, it is my responsibility to pay for their mistakes, since they are my younger brothers after all."
As Yinsi spoke, he shook his head and sighed, as if he was an old father who was worried about his younger brothers.
His words made Guo Luoluo Gege dislike Yin'er and Yinsi even more. Yinsi was not their parent, so why should he clean up their mess?
"Eighth Prince is kind-hearted. If I were to encounter such a thing every now and then, I would definitely whip them severely with the whip I carry with me.
They are all princes with noble status. Why should you clean up their mess?
I think in their eyes you are just a servant, otherwise how could they bear to cause trouble for you?"
"Gege Guoluo, please stop talking. I'm their elder brother, so it's my duty to handle these small matters for them. Besides, my ninth and tenth brothers have a very close relationship with me, so there's no problem."
"You are so considerate of others. Didn't I tell you that the Emperor will grant you a marriage in a few years? Do you plan to clean up their mess after you get married?
I can tell you that I don't like them. If you really want to marry me, you can no longer have such close relationships with them."
Yinsi was in a bit of a dilemma. Yin'er's mother, Concubine Yi, was a favored concubine, Yin'e's mother was a noble concubine, and his mother was just a noble lady, the kind that the emperor had not seen for many years.
His acquaintance and friendship with the two of them were all planned, and it was their unreasonable behavior that highlighted his own excellence. He didn't want to give up.
Although Guo Luoluo Gege was only the granddaughter of Prince An, she was deeply loved by Prince An and had a domineering personality. Naturally, she did not want to be outdone by the equally domineering Yinzhen and Yin?
For her, she could see that Yinsi wanted to marry her as his principal wife, so her thoughts should be the center. She didn't like Yin'er and Yin'er, and Yinsi couldn't like them either.
After thinking about it, Yinsi felt that since there was no one else around at the moment, he might as well follow Guo Luoluo Gege's wishes and coax her first. As for the future, he would talk about it later.
"They are brothers to me, and I grew up with them both. It's impossible for me to not have any contact with them.
Besides, after we get married, we won’t live in the same house with them, so I will spend less time with them in the future. You know, I fell in love with you a few years ago and don’t want to give up on you.
As for cleaning up the mess for the two of them, it's just because I don't want to make things difficult for the Emperor. If you don't like it, I won't clean up the mess for them in the future.
They are grown up now, and it is time for them to know what to do and what not to do, and they don’t need me to follow them around and clean up for them.”
