Jinzhi and Yangliu both tried frantically to persuade Shen Yunjin, hoping that she could change her mind.

"My lady, you are pregnant with the young master now. If something happens to you after you go in, how will you let us live?"

Shen Yunjin looked at the two anxious people and smiled.

"I just want to go in and take a look. You heard it too. The guards inside are very skilled and will definitely not let anything happen to me."

"Besides, I am not going there alone. I need an introducer."

"Yang Liu, come with me, let's go to Prince Rui's Mansion first."

Ever since Princess Rui met Prince Rui, she has been staying obediently in the palace.

When the maid said that the Prince of Qi's concubine was coming to visit, she was still a little excited.

She is a sociable person, but now she is confined in the palace and is really bored.

"Your servant pays respects to Princess Rui." Shen Yunjin bowed.

"Don't be polite, you're so pregnant, help yourself up."

"Last time the princess came to the mansion, I felt that we had a very pleasant conversation. So, I got some rare fruits from the south and sent some to the princess."

Shen Yunjin motioned to Yang Liu to bring the fruit over.

"Concubine Shen is too polite. It would be the same if you sent someone to do it."

Princess Rui smiled and asked the maid to take it and put it away.

"I'm bored at home, aren't I? I just want to go out and get some fresh air. I'm almost bored to death staying in the house every day."

"Hey, so am I."

Princess Rui immediately resonated with this.

"It's a pity that I'm burdened by this stomachache. I can't go far away, and there's nothing fun to do in the capital."

Shen Yunjin sighed.

Princess Rui looked at her belly and changed the subject.

"How many months have you been here? Your belly looks pretty big."

Shen Yunjin smiled and touched her belly embarrassedly.

"Maybe I'm a glutton. Ever since I got pregnant, I've been eating a lot. The prince once joked that I was going to eat the Qi Palace out of money."

"How can it be so exaggerated? Men are all like this. They don't understand the hardship we women go through when we are pregnant."

"Prince Rui is a well-known favorite prince in the capital. You don't know that you are the one I envy the most."

Princess Rui was very satisfied with Shen Yunjin's words.

"Let me tell you, there is a science to how husband and wife get along with each other."

Princess Rui began to tell Shen Yunjin some ways for couples to get along with each other.

Shen Yunjin looked at Princess Rui with admiration.

"Hearing what the princess said today is better than reading for ten years. I thank the princess for her teachings."

Shen Yunjin stood up and bowed.

"I am just talking nonsense to you, but Old Five holds you in the palm of his hand."

Princess Rui looked at Shen Yunjin teasingly.

"Your Highness, you are joking. I am just a concubine. How can I deserve what you said?"

"Only someone as capable as the princess is worthy of this position."

"Fortunately, the princess is a woman. If you were a man, I would want to be favored by the princess."

Shen Yunjin covered her mouth and smiled shyly.

"Why is your little mouth so sweet?" Princess Rui couldn't help but reach out and pinch Shen Yunjin's face.

At this time, a maid walked in quickly from outside.

She walked to Princess Rui's side and whispered something to her.

Princess Rui couldn't help but frown.

Shen Yunjin remained calm, picked up the teacup beside her, and observed Princess Rui out of the corner of her eye.

She saw that Princess Rui's face was gloomy.

"But the princess has something to do. I have been bothering you for a while, so I will take my leave now."

Princess Rui quickly put on a smile and said, "I do have something to deal with, so I won't keep you here today. I'll invite you for tea another day."

Shen Yunjin said goodbye and left, asking Yang Liu to order the coachman to park the carriage aside.

After a while, Yang Liu saw Princess Rui going out.

"Your Majesty, Princess Rui has come out."

"Let the driver follow." Shen Yunjin ordered.

Today, Shen Yunjin's carriage did not have the mark of Prince Qi's Palace.

Princess Rui was so focused on getting on with her journey that she didn't notice that there was a carriage following behind her.

Just now, the maid told her that the princess asked her to take five thousand taels of silver to the private residence.

Five thousand taels! It's not a small number.

But she had to go.

She kept urging the driver to go faster all the way.

Soon, the carriage stopped.

Princess Rui came to the door with the help of her maid.

She hesitated at the door and looked back and around.

She wanted to see if King Rui had come today.

She didn't want to run into him.

She looked around for a while and didn't see the familiar carriage, so she turned around and went in.

Shen Yunjin saw Princess Rui come in and walked to the door.

The servant at the door stopped her.

"I am with Princess Rui who just went in."

Shen Yunjin pointed at Princess Rui's back.

The servant looked at her suspiciously; she was a stranger.

"You saw it too. She was waiting for me just now. But my belly is so big that I must be walking slowly. Besides, she has something urgent to deal with first. If you don't believe me, you can ask Princess Rui to come out and ask."

Shen Yunjin explained calmly.

The people guarding the gate did see Princess Rui waiting at the door for a while.

Shen Yunjin is a pregnant woman, and she would definitely not come to such a place if no one invited her.

The few of them looked at each other, registered, and gave Shen Yunjin a veil.

Yang Liu held Shen Yunjin tightly, and Shen Yunjin pinched her hand.

Shen Yunjin covered her face with a veil and walked in.

Princess Rui found the princess under the guidance of her maid.

"Have you brought the banknotes?" the princess asked when she saw Princess Rui.

Princess Rui saw that the person standing next to the princess was the former Peerless No. 8 and the manager of the private residence.

"Princess, what are you doing?"

Princess Rui walked up to the princess.

"He won the fight today, and I promised to support him."

That doesn't cost five thousand taels, does it?

Princess Rui looked confused, but still took out the banknote from her bosom and handed it over.

The princess casually handed it to the steward and said, "Can I take my people away?"

The manager bowed and said, "Of course, of course!"

As he spoke, he pulled out the indenture of number eight from his bosom and handed it to the princess.

The princess put the deed in her arms and said to No. 8, "Go pack your things and leave with me soon."

Only then did Princess Rui realize that the princess had bought number eight.

She felt uncomfortable in her heart, as she was the first customer to visit No. 8.

She rolled her eyes, "How about I go with him?"

The princess waved her hand indifferently.

She turned around and said to the manager, "I remember there is a number 5. Is he free today?"

The steward smiled and said, "Number five has a guest today. How about we ask another waiter to come over?"

"Forget it, I'll walk around the yard and see if there's anything I like."

Princess Rui left in a hurry with No. 8.
