I'll tell you the secret and let's laugh together!

Finally, the prince looked at the Sixth Prince who was sitting beside him drinking tea, and after hesitating for a while, he finally spoke.

"Sixth brother, look at all these memorials. I can't review them all by myself. How about..."

The Sixth Prince continued to drink his tea, seemingly not understanding what the Crown Prince meant at all.

"Then what should I do? My brother is the crown prince, the heir to the throne. This memorial can only be approved by the crown prince. I feel very sorry for my brother, but I can do nothing to help him."

The Sixth Prince deliberately said a few "ah". He learned this interjection from Ning Zhiyi. He said it just for fun at first, but slowly it became a habit.

Seeing that the Sixth Prince obviously did it on purpose, and looking at the memorials on the table, he realized that his father probably did it on purpose as well. He was furious. With so many sons, he couldn't just pick him to blame.

The prince took a deep breath, calmed himself, sighed heavily, and when he saw that he had successfully attracted the attention of the Sixth Prince, he began the next step of his performance.

"It's not that my brother intends to talk to you, but the situation is special now. Your sister-in-law is pregnant. It's very hard for women to be pregnant. In addition, the imperial physician said that when a woman is pregnant, her mood changes a lot and she needs company. When she is most vulnerable and needs company the most, I..."

"I ignored her in order to review the imperial edicts. This is not what a real man should do. Alas, I am not a good husband, not a good father!"

The Sixth Prince stopped drinking his tea and lowered his head in thought.

The prince secretly paid attention to the Sixth Prince's actions. When he found out something was going on, his voice became even deeper. "Forget it, forget it. I am the crown prince of a country. I cannot have both a big family and a small one. For the sake of the country and the government, I can only let them and their son suffer."

Finally, the Sixth Prince couldn't help but said:

"Alright, my royal brother, please go back and accompany my sister-in-law. I'll handle it for you. However, this matter is only known to you and me, and I will only help you handle it once. You will have to handle it yourself in the future."

The villain in the prince's heart had already started singing and dancing, but he couldn't show it, and his face was filled with surprise.

"This... This is so embarrassing. It's true that brothers are better. Sixth brother, I'll leave everything to you. I'm leaving first."

Fearing that the Sixth Prince would find out if he spoke too much, the Crown Prince slipped away.

The Sixth Prince was a little stunned when he saw the Crown Prince slipping away like a gust of wind. He felt that he had fallen into the Crown Prince's trap. But then he thought again and realized that the Crown Prince had never been like this before. He had always been conscientious in handling state affairs and had never slacked off.

It is understandable that he behaved abnormally today because of his sister-in-law and unborn nephew.

On the second day, the prince hosted a banquet for Feng Jiutian. As the next emperor of Dali, it was necessary for him to have a good relationship with the next empress of Feng Kingdom.

The second prince, the fourth prince, the fifth prince, the sixth prince and the seventh princess were all here.

Ning Zhiyi and Ning Yuanze were also there, but the other three brothers did not come because they had something else to do.

The Second Prince's wife and the Crown Princess sat together. The Seventh Eunuch snuggled up to the Crown Princess, looking at her belly curiously, as if he wanted to touch it but didn't dare to.

"You don't have to be so careful, my sister. Just touch her. She will definitely like you."

As soon as the seventh princess put her hand on it, she immediately felt her hand being kicked.

She was so shocked that her eyes widened, "Sister-in-law, my nephew kicked me."

"Well, it means that she likes the imperial sister very much. She likes her aunt very much."

Ever since having a child, the Crown Princess has been radiating maternal love and her tone of voice has become softer.

"Sister Zhiyi, look, my nephew kicked me. My nephew kicked me."

The Seventh Princess looked at Ning Zhiyi happily. Ning Zhiyi smiled and nodded. She wanted to say something, but happened to hear the conversation between the Second Prince's wife and the Crown Princess, so she stopped talking.

"It would be great if I could borrow the blessing of the Seventh Princess. If it's a nephew, that would be perfect."

The Crown Princess understood that the Second Prince's wife said this entirely out of consideration for her and had no bad intentions, so she sighed and nodded.

"Who said it wasn't? I dreamed that it was a boy. Otherwise, given the current situation, the prince and I would be facing an even more severe situation."

The Second Prince's Consort patted the Crown Princess's hand comfortingly and said:

"You don't have to worry too much because your brother is here. He will definitely be able to handle everything. I envy your sister-in-law for having a child. I don't even have one."

The Second Prince's wife sighed with melancholy. She had been married to the Second Prince for quite some time, but there was no sign of pregnancy. She was afraid that the ministers would turn their attention to her and her husband someday.

Fortunately, the second prince is not in the position of the crown prince, and his unreliable image has long been deeply rooted in people's minds, so no one has focused on the couple for the time being.

"It will happen. Keep calm. The baby in my belly is a surprise. Maybe it's the same for you."

"I hope so. My husband and I have made an agreement to wait for half a year. If there is still no news after half a year, I will take medicine to recuperate."

Seeing the Second Prince's wife's worried look on her face, Ning Zhiyi sighed deeply.

Once you get married, you have to consider the issue of children, which is really a bit scary. Thinking of this, an idea popped up in Ning Zhiyi's mind.

[Tong'er, let me ask you a question. Do you know the gender of the baby in the Crown Princess' belly? ]

The Crown Princess, who was about to speak, was stuck in her tracks. She turned around and hugged the Seventh Princess into her arms, holding her tightly with both hands and keeping her mouth tightly shut, fearing that she would lose her composure and say something she shouldn't.

Fortunately, the Seventh Princess was relatively obedient and snuggled in the Crown Princess's arms. The Second Prince's wife wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't open her mouth.

At this moment, the three people simultaneously forgot what they had agreed upon before, which was that when Ning Zhiyi was talking to the system, they must pretend to be very busy so as not to let Ning Zhiyi notice anything unusual.

But at this moment, they all forgot and were unable to react.

It wasn't just these three people who forgot to react, even the prince was stuck.

The prince's hand, which was pouring wine, kept tilting, and the wine overflowed from the glass and spilled onto the table.

The Sixth Prince raised his hand and took the wine jug from the Crown Prince, trying to save the last few drops of wine in the jug.

The Second Prince reached out and touched the Crown Prince, lowering his voice and saying:

"Don't just stand there, keep acting. If someone insists on noticing something unusual, you won't be able to find out the gender of my eldest nephew."

"Yeah yeah!"

The Fourth Prince held up his glasses with his hand and quickly agreed.

The fifth prince continued to drink, "I think it must be my eldest nephew, there is no doubt about it!"

The Sixth Prince nodded and said, "I think you are right. Let's quickly prepare a gift for our nephew."

The brothers made jokes and tried to lighten the atmosphere.

It's not that they didn't notice the pressure the prince was under during this period, but they could do nothing to help. They could only comfort the prince with words, and other than that, there was nothing they could do.

Moreover, they also sincerely hoped that the Crown Princess was pregnant with a little nephew. Once the Crown Prince had a legitimate eldest son, the next king of Dali would basically be determined, which meant that Dali would become more stable.

The second prince's idea is even simpler. Now he can rely on his elder brother, but what about his own children?

Your own child has to hug your brother's child, that is, your eldest nephew's thigh!

Only by clinging to others generation after generation can we ensure the continued prosperity of our descendants.

I’m afraid that if the Crown Prince knew what the Second Prince was thinking, he would be so angry that he would be speechless.
