"Your Highness, why did you come to my place? Don't you always dislike me? If you don't want to come, why did you come?"
The Crown Princess looked at the Crown Prince sarcastically. She subconsciously thought that the Crown Prince came to her in order to have a legitimate son with her, but she didn't expect it to be the case.
"This entire Yuqing Palace belongs to me. I can go wherever I want. Do you have any say in my affairs? Not only here, but the entire palace will belong to me one day.
I won't play tricks on you. I came here to tell you that Concubine Li is pregnant. You are the Crown Princess, so I have to tell you this.
I've been busy lately and don't have time to take care of her. Since you're the Crown Princess, I'll leave her in your care. Remember, I want her to give birth to this baby safely."
The Crown Princess looked at the Crown Prince in shock. She thought he was coming to favor her so that she could give birth to a legitimate son, but she didn't expect that he was coming to tell her that Concubine Li was pregnant.
Sure enough, this Concubine Li is just as much of a bitch as Mu Sili. Wouldn't it be a slap in her face to get pregnant at this time? The prince actually asked her to take care of her. Dream on!
Concubine Li had already established a firm foothold in Yuqing Palace because of his favor. Even after she married in, her position was not shaken. Now that she was pregnant, how could she compete with her?
Thinking that she, a princess consort, was being controlled by a concubine, she felt infinite resentment in her heart.
Mu Sili is the Fifth Lady and her sister-in-law. She really can't touch her at this time, but Concubine Li is right under her nose. Is she still afraid that she can't touch her?
The prince wanted her to take care of his concubine, so she took good care of him, hoping that when Concubine Li lost her unborn child, the prince would still favor her.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will take good care of Concubine Li. The entire Yuqing Palace is under your control. You don't have to worry about what I will do to her.
I don't like her monopolizing you. After all, people who don't know her might think she is the Crown Princess of Yuqing Palace. I dare not do anything to her.
What you should be focusing on now is not the trivial matters in the harem, but the affairs of the court. Think about it carefully, your fifth brother has already entered the court, and your fifth brother's wife is pregnant with twins..."
The Crown Princess didn't explain it very clearly. She really couldn't do anything to Mu Sili at the moment, but that didn't stop her from using the Crown Prince to do it.
The prince has the support of the entire Hesheli clan. Apart from anything else, Soetu himself would not allow such an auspicious sign to be born to Yinqi.
As long as the prince had the intention to kill Mu Sili at this time, he would definitely find Soetu in private to take action against Mu Sili.
By then, she would be able to get rid of Concubine Li, and Soetu would be able to get rid of the child in Mu Sili's belly. It would be the best of both worlds. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile.
The prince originally wanted to kill Mu Sili because of her words, but after seeing the smile on her face, he instantly guessed what she was thinking. He sneered, thinking that she was trying to kill someone with a borrowed knife!
He, a prince, almost became a knife in the hands of the Crown Princess. If this were to be made public, wouldn't people laugh at him?
However, the Crown Princess is really cruel and courageous. The child in Mu Sili's belly is well-prepared, and she is valued by the Empress Dowager and Concubine Yi. How could she have the courage to have such vicious thoughts towards her?
Although she was nominally the Crown Princess, before he ascended the throne, she was just a daughter-in-law in front of Concubine Yi and others. They respected her only because Kangxi named her the Crown Princess.
If she didn't have this identity, she wouldn't even be qualified to see them, but since she wanted to take action against Mu Sili, it seemed like he should help her.
"You are right. I am the crown prince. Such auspicious events should happen in Yuqing Palace. Concubine Li is pregnant. No matter what method you use, I will let outsiders know that Concubine Li is pregnant with twins.
You are my Crown Princess, so you should know what it means to rise and fall together. Think carefully about the Guaerjia clan behind you. I believe you can handle this matter well. When you do, I will give you a legitimate son.
A trace of sadness flashed through the Crown Princess's heart. She wanted the Crown Prince to take action against Mu Sili, but she didn't expect that the Crown Prince would not be fooled. Instead, he used her family to force her to take action against him.
This is the man she married. If such a man becomes emperor, will the people still have a good life? Whether she is a good person or not, she was forced by him.
Since he is so optimistic about her, she cannot be disappointed. She faked the pregnancy and wanted to confuse the royal heir. When the truth comes out, not only Concubine Li, but even he will be punished by Kangxi.
Looking at her memory, she really shares the prince's fate, but she comes from a noble family, how can she compromise because of the prince's threats?
A princess consort without children would not be able to hold on to the position of empress even if she became the empress. If Hongxi ascended the throne in the future, she would probably not be able to sit on the position of empress dowager.
The Crown Princess immediately thought of Kangxi's biological mother, Empress Dowager Tong. She was the empress dowager for only one year. It was said that she died of illness. She also thought so at first, but since she became the Crown Princess, she no longer thought so.
The Empress Dowager and Empress Xiaozhuang were both from Khorchin. They would not allow two Empress Dowagers to appear in the harem at the same time, especially since this Empress Dowager was Kangxi's biological mother. In this case, her death was inevitable.
The same goes for her. If Hongxi hadn't died, he would have inherited the crown prince's mantle one day, and her position would definitely be threatened. In that case, why should she make wedding dresses for them?
"I understand. I will take good care of Concubine Li."
The prince nodded and left the Crown Princess's palace directly. To him, this place was boring and he really had no mood to stay overnight.
The Crown Princess looked at the Crown Prince's back with cold eyes. She really didn't expect that he would turn around and leave even though she had agreed to his request. He really didn't take her seriously.
"Since His Highness is so eager for Concubine Li to conceive twins, I will help him confirm this news. Come here."
"I will spread the rumors as you command."
Outside the palace, Soetu fell into deep thought as he looked at the secret letter sent by the prince. Was there something wrong with his brain that he wanted to confuse the royal bloodline?
It would be fine if Concubine Li was pregnant with a prince, but what if she was pregnant with a princess? The prince was becoming increasingly restless.
After thinking carefully, Soetu found that the change in the prince started after the wedding of Yinqi and Mu Sili. He was a little angry that he did not fight for it. How could a prince be jealous of his younger brother?
Kangxi's attitude towards him has always been indifferent. Even when Concubine Yi was favored, he never gave him the favor close to the prince. Why couldn't he understand why he wanted to go against him?
The most important person at the moment is Yinzhi. He was conferred the title of prince at such a young age, which shows how much Kangxi values him.
