After the gifts were given, she no longer took them to heart. After all, the prince had seen them in person, and all of them were registered by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. This concubine was familiar with Zhang Qianqian because of the former crown princess. After all, the two of them were in a relationship. Even so, the concubine did not dare to use Zhang Qianqian's things, but asked the people below to lock the things in the warehouse and register them. She would have to return the gifts according to this when the time came. Only the position of Princess Rui had not yet been decided by the emperor. Prince Rui had no objection to this, as long as it was not a cruel person like the former crown princess.
Another concubine also came from a family of military generals. Her father was General Song, who controlled an army of 200,000 men. However, General Song had only one son and one daughter. His son was now a seventh-rank official in the Hanlin Academy, editing history books, which was a sinecure. General Song would not allow him to go to the battlefield anyway, and there was no requirement for his rank. However, the emperor seemed to want the princess to marry, so he was destined to marry a princess, and there was no need for any real position. His daughter was given by the emperor to Prince Rui as a concubine.
Now General Song's two most important people are under the emperor's nose. The emperor is also certain that General Song is a sensible man and does not covet power. Therefore, compared with those old ministers who were demoted in the past, he escaped unscathed.
However, Concubine Song was usually a cautious person and never talked much. Even before she had the chance to get pregnant, when the Crown Princess was still alive, she never took the initiative to do so. Instead, it was Zhang Qianqian who took the initiative. As a result, the Zhang family was in trouble and were directly exiled to Qiong Island. Even Zhang Qianqian's child could not return to Jinling. Isn't this a disaster?
But the situation is different now. The cruel and ruthless Crown Princess has been deposed or even executed. The remaining people in Prince Rui's Mansion are not to be feared at all, and the Emperor has not bestowed upon her any more women of noble status. Isn't this a good opportunity for her to have a baby?
So Concubine Song stopped taking the medicine at this time, and she became pregnant very soon. Even if she was pregnant, she deliberately did it after Zhang Qianqian gave birth, so that Zhang Qianqian would be busy taking care of the younger one and looking for the older one, and would have no time to harm herself, so Concubine Song became pregnant immediately.
Concubine Song also knew that with her family background, there was no way she could become the principal wife. After all, the military power that her father held made Prince Rui and the emperor very wary of him. If she were promoted to the position of principal wife, it would probably be the time when the Song family would be destroyed.
Therefore, even if Concubine Song gave birth to a child, she would only be an idle prince or a prince in the future. Unless Prince Rui could become the emperor, she would have a chance if she made some plans.
Concubine Song naturally knows her child's future status now, and she does not have too high expectations for the child. She only hopes that he can grow up healthily and be able to take care of her in her old age. She will talk about the future later.
Prince Rui sent people to quickly pick up Zhou Qingyun and send him back to Jinling City. After all, it was not as safe there as on his side, so he first arranged for Concubine Zhang's people to pick up Zhou Qingyun and protect him to prevent anyone from taking advantage of him. Then he directly hired a bodyguard team and started rushing back to Jinling. He sent people to pick him up, and then the two teams would be combined into one escort team. Zhou Qingyun would be gone. As long as they could reunite, Zhou Qingyun's safety could be guaranteed.
Since Wang Shiyu and her family had just moved to a new house, they were very busy at this time. When Zhou Qingyun just moved his things down and wanted to unpack them, Wang Shiyu stopped him. The main reason was that she didn't want to clean up again because it was too tiring.
"Zhou Qingyun, you don't need to open your things anymore. I already rejected Mr. Liu's invitation yesterday, and he won't be coming to teach you today. I think the letter you wrote back then should have received a reply by now, and your father should have arranged for someone to come.
In a few days, someone will come to pick you up and send you back to Jinling City. If you open these things now, you will have to clean them up again in two days. It would be better for you to just look at the two books in your hands.
Your mother's people are still in the city. They'll probably come to visit first. When they do, you can just follow them and leave. When you leave, be careful to stay safe and don't get discovered by the Wang and Zhang families. You've learned not only academic knowledge this year, but also the art of dealing with people. These skills will shine wherever you apply them. I hope you have a bright future and that your destiny will be firmly in your own hands."
What Wang Shiyu said made sense, and Mo Ruru looked at Zhou Qingyun silently without saying anything. She first moved Ruirui and Ruirui's cradles down and let Ruirui lie in them and play. The mother and daughter cleaned the house very quickly. Zhou Qingyun stood there looking at Wang Shiyu's back for a long time without saying a word.
In fact, he really learned a lot in this year, not only spiritually, but also in reality. For example, when Wang Shiyu talked about the actions of the Wang family and the Zhang family, she would not do it behind his back, and would even explain to him the pros and cons, as well as the solutions.
It made him truly understand a lot of truths. Sometimes, no matter how much power you have, there are some things that others may not know. But Wang Shiyu is not like that. She will tell her family all her joys, sorrows, anger and happiness, and share with everyone her daily schedule, happy things, and various things she encounters.
At this moment, Zhou Qingyun could feel a warm halo on Wang Shiyu's body, which made him remember this scene for the rest of his life. Even many years later, when he saw Wang Shiyu again, his heart would be deeply moved.
