"Father, it's obvious that His Highness is looking forward to marrying his daughter. Even though Concubine Rou gave birth to twins, she is still not fit to be the Crown Princess. Even if she is favored, her children will not be legitimate.
As long as my daughter marries the Crown Prince and successfully gives birth to a prince, Concubine Rou and her son will not only not pose a threat to my daughter, but they will also live cautiously, because my daughter will not let them have it easy."
Shi Wenbing did not agree with her idea, because even Kangxi had tacitly acknowledged that the prince favored Mu Sili. How could he change his attitude towards her just because she married the prince?
Besides, Kangxi's favor for the twins is indescribable with the naked eye. Even if she marries into the Eastern Palace, the prince will not favor her for a while.
Even if the prince gave her some respect out of consideration for their marital relationship, it would only be a superficial honor. It was impossible for the prince to only have her.
"I don't want to say too much to undermine your confidence. What you need to do now is to pray that nothing else happens, otherwise I won't be able to protect you."
Guwalgiya understood what Shi Wenbing meant. He was worried that the Crown Prince had asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare for the wedding but some unforeseen incident would occur, and their wedding would have to be postponed again.
But this time the postponement was really postponed. After all, the prince had people prepare for the third time. She understood that there must be a second time for everything, but not a third time.
"Don't worry, Father. Everything that happened before was God's will. I believe that I will be able to marry into Yuqing Palace smoothly this time. When I become the Crown Princess, I will have everything I want.
My daughter has endured seven years of rumors and gossip, and only by marrying into the Yuqing Palace can she escape them. Father probably doesn't want his daughter to bear such a bad reputation for the rest of her life, right? "
"Father naturally wishes you the best. Since you have already made your plans, Father will not say anything else. You should prepare well and strive to have a smooth wedding with His Highness in two months."
"My daughter understands. Take care, father."
As soon as Shi Wenbing left, Guaerjia began to pray that the wedding would go smoothly. She believed that she had suffered a lot before and God would not let her suffer any more.
Just as she expected, two months passed peacefully and she waited for the time of her wedding to the prince.
"Look, Father, I've waited for this. I know I can successfully marry the Crown Prince this time. After tomorrow, I will be the real Crown Princess. No one will dare to bully me then."
"When you go to Yuqing Palace, you must serve the Crown Prince well. Before you have an heir, don't confront Concubine Rou head-on. If possible, I hope you can be subservient to her."
Guaerjia was unhappy. What did she mean by "Mu Sili is superior to her"? She was the Crown Princess. No matter how favored Mu Sili was, she was just a concubine. How could the wife bow to the concubine?
"I knew you would be unhappy. Doesn't this mean you should be humble before her until you have children? If you are willing to do this, it will definitely lower her guard. I am doing this for your own good."
"My daughter is mistaken. What Father said makes sense. Before I have enough bargaining chips, I will not compete with Concubine Rou."
"As long as you can figure it out, rest well and try to be in the best condition possible when facing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. This way, you will have a better chance of gaining his favor."
"My daughter knows."
The next day, Guaerjia was brought into the palace by people from the Imperial Household Department and the Ministry of Rites with the ceremony of being the Crown Princess.
She was unhappy. She felt that since she was the Crown Princess, the Crown Prince should personally welcome her into Yuqing Palace. However, she did not expect that not only did the Crown Prince not show up to welcome her, but he also asked people from the Imperial Household Department to welcome her into the palace.
Even though she knew it was the rule, she was still unhappy.
"Princess, please hurry up and don't keep His Highness waiting too long."
Seeing her standing still, the people in the Imperial Household Department became anxious. If they missed the auspicious time, the entire Imperial Household Department would be held accountable.
It is said that the Crown Princess is the most dignified and polite, but it seems that is all false. If she were really like that, she would not deliberately put on airs here.
"Why didn't His Royal Highness come?"
When these words were spoken, not only the people in the Imperial Household Department but also the people in the Ministry of Rites were a little confused. What did she mean? Did she want the Crown Prince to come and take her into the palace?
He probably didn't sleep well last night, otherwise how could he say such outrageous things? The prince is the crown prince, and it is only his turn for others to wait for him, but he has no right to invite others. The Crown Princess takes herself too seriously.
"Crown Princess, it's better for you to go in quickly. If you miss the auspicious time, not only His Highness, but even the Emperor will be unhappy."
Guaerjia felt threatened. What was wrong with her just wanting the prince to come and welcome her? Why did she act like she had done something wrong?
"I am the Crown Princess appointed by the Emperor himself. I am the Crown Prince's legitimate wife. Even if the Crown Prince comes to pick me up, it is only natural. How could I possibly break the rules?"
Seeing that she insisted on being picked up by the prince before entering the palace, the people from the Ministry of Rites were unhappy.
Is this the Crown Princess that the Emperor had already chosen? If they hadn't experienced it themselves, they wouldn't have believed that the Emperor could choose such a person as the Crown Princess.
"Is the Crown Princess determined not to enter the palace? If so, I will report this to the Emperor truthfully. You know it took you seven years to get to this point. Do you really want to let it go?"
"That's right, Crown Princess, you've endured all these years, why would you be so fussy about such a trivial matter? Besides, there's no reason for His Royal Highness to come pick you up.
If you insist that His Highness come to pick you up, then I can only report your attitude to His Highness and ask His Highness to make the decision.
You may not know that between you and the concubine, His Highness values the concubine more. You have done something like this before you even entered the palace. I am afraid His Highness will never fall in love with you."
Although these words hurt her heart, they successfully allowed the Crown Princess to enter the palace. If she had really disliked the Crown Prince because of such a small matter, she would have no chance of having her own children.
"I was just joking with you. Don't take it to heart. I'm just sorry that Your Highness can't come to take me into the palace. I have no other intention. It's getting late. Let's go into the palace."
"Yes, please invite the Crown Princess into the palace."
No matter what she thought in her heart, at least she was willing to enter the palace now, otherwise they would all be punished, but at the same time, they all had a bad impression of her.
In Yuqing Palace, the Crown Prince was speechless when he heard what Guaerjia had done. How could such a person be favored by the Emperor? She was really not worthy of the position of Crown Princess in any way.
"If this marriage hadn't been delayed for seven years and wasn't arranged by the Emperor himself, I really wouldn't want to marry her. She's so much worse than Li'er and totally unworthy of the title of Crown Princess.
Li'er, just go and entertain your sister-in-law and the others later, and don't worry about anything else, so that Guaerjia won't be so blind as to ask you to set rules in front of her.
You are the Royal Consort appointed by the Emperor, not much worse than her. In my heart, you are my Crown Princess, and you are pregnant, I don't want you to be bullied by her."
