I just want to rob you of your luck

Lin Jiuer couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Your Highness, how could I, a pure and innocent girl, be pregnant?"

She walked to the door under Zhou Yichen's curious gaze, and sure enough, there was a maid outside who was trying to look inside furtively.

"Chun Yu, didn't I tell you not to come near here unless necessary?"

The maid named Chunyu didn't expect to be discovered, and hurriedly bowed: "Your Highness, I just want to ask if you need tea?"

Lin Jiuer looked at her with a half-smile: "You are a maid, just listen to the master's orders. Remember, you are not allowed to go near the main house unless you are called. This will not happen again."

This maid was arranged by Hu Yunshao. She was also by the original owner's side in the previous life. The original owner had a simple personality and trusted her very much.

As a result, she often passed news about the original owner to Hu Yunshao, causing the original owner to suffer a lot. It was not until she had a miscarriage that the original owner realized that there was something wrong with the people around her.

"Yes, I understand." Chunyu knew that this person was now favored, so she didn't dare to make him angry again, and quickly retreated to the bottom of the stairs and stood still.

Zhou Yichen naturally didn't need to take any action to teach the maidservants around him a lesson.

After Lin Jiuer closed the door and walked in, he asked, "Is there something wrong with the maid outside?"

"She is a spy arranged by your princess consort."

Zhou Yichen looked at Lin Jiuer with dissatisfaction: "You should be my prince consort. We need to make plans quickly. I really don't want to deal with Hu Yunshao anymore."

Lin Jiuer was quite satisfied with his reaction: "Don't worry, his father is a veteran of two dynasties, and she is the only daughter in the family. Although she is a concubine's daughter, she is still very favored. We need to plan slowly.

Let's first plan to take away her housekeeper rights and undermine her power, so that it will be easier to deal with her in the future."

Zhou Yichen nodded in agreement, looking at Lin Jiuer with an imperceptible affection in his eyes.

"I'll listen to you"

Then he asked, "What about your pregnancy? What if your belly doesn't grow after a few months? Wouldn't that be a bummer? If it doesn't work, I can help you."

Lin Jiuer looked at Zhou Yichen with a smile on her face: "How are you going to help me?"

Zhou Yichen was suddenly speechless, and his face turned red. It took him a long time to utter a word.

"We're all going to be tied together from now on anyway, so we might as well make the fake play real."

Lin Jiuer looked at Zhou Yichen. Since he had returned to the Seventh Prince's Mansion during this period, the food was naturally good. Zhou Yichen looked stronger and his complexion was much better than when he was in the small village.

There is almost no difference in appearance and demeanor from the original Zhou Yixuan.

But there is a clear light in his eyes, and such a person's heart is pure and has not been polluted.

He was naturally handsome, and as Lin Jiuer was obsessed with looks, she wasn't averse to something really happening between them.

But now the task is progressing too slowly, and she is not in the mood to talk about love, not to mention that Hu Yunshao is still watching her with a covetous eye.

It was impossible for her to get pregnant with Zhou Yichen at this time. That would put her in a passive position and be very dangerous.

"Yi Chen, before I become the principal wife, I think we should focus on the great cause. This child will not be born. I want him to become a weapon to overthrow Hu Yunshao."

Zhou Yichen immediately understood what Lin Jiuer meant, and after a moment of thought, a surprised smile appeared on his face.

"Jiu'er, you like me too, right?"

Lin Jiuer snorted coldly and glared at him: "I didn't, someone picked up such a perfect wife for nothing, and he didn't even confess his love to me. How can such a good thing happen in the world?"

Zhou Yichen approached Lin Jiuer and held her hand, his expression serious: "I promise you, I will give you a grand wedding in the future, and I will make you my legitimate princess."

Lin Jiuer looked at Zhou Yichen's serious expression and felt a little moved. It was true that it was easy to develop feelings when you spend time together day and night, even if you don't do anything.

But she knew better than anyone that men's words could deceive people.

You can only trust 30% of any promise a man makes. Don't have too high expectations and you won't be disappointed.

She patted Zhou Yichen on the shoulder with emotion: "Work hard, I'm waiting for that day to come."

Lin Jiuer pulled Zhou Yichen to sit down, and then asked: "By the way, you have been the Seventh Prince for such a long time, have you figured out his financial situation?"

Zhou Yichen nodded and said, "He has a private vault. I went in and saw some things in it that were bestowed by the emperor and cannot be sold. There is nothing else.

I asked Butler Ma, and he said that there was no more than 5,000 taels of silver in the mansion account, but the monthly expenses were more than 1,000 taels, so Zhou Yixuan was really a poor prince. "

Lin Jiuer smiled helplessly: "Why else would you say he would marry a woman from a merchant family as his concubine? I guess Deng gave him a lot of financial support when she married in, but in the end, it was almost all spent by the people in the prince's mansion."

"Tell the accountant to give me 1,000 taels of silver. We have to find a way to make money. If you want to climb up the social ladder in the future, you will have to spend money to make money."

Zhou Yichen was somewhat touched. Jiuer always thought about him. He asked curiously, "What do you plan to do with so much money?"

"I have a few beauty recipes, I should be able to make some money."

In the previous life, the original owner made a lot of money for Zhou Yixuan by using these prescriptions. Later, Hu Yunshao took the beauty cream she made to please the queen and won the queen's praise.

The original owner did so many things foolishly, but in the end it was a thankless task. She will not follow the original owner's old path in this life.

Zhou Yichen obediently asked the accountant to give Lin Jiuer a silver note of one thousand taels.

Lin Jiuer took the silver note and went to find Concubine Deng.

In the original owner's memory, Concubine Deng was very good at managing finances and was also very versatile. Although she was harsh in her words, she didn't have a bad heart.

She had not done anything substantially bad to the original owner, so Lin Jiuer planned to cooperate with her in business.

Deng was leisurely drinking tea and appreciating flowers in her own yard. As the prince's wife was under house arrest, her life became much more comfortable. Suddenly, she heard a servant announce that Concubine Lin had arrived.

She was a little puzzled. She had helped the prince's wife target Concubine Lin many times, so why did she come to her?

Concubine Deng also heard about Lin Jiuer's pregnancy. Would this woman come to trouble her? She knew that Hu Yunshao had suffered from her, so she naturally became more vigilant.

"Go ask her in."

Lin Jiuer came here alone, and this matter has not been successful yet. Of course, the fewer people who know about it, the better.

"What brings Concubine Lin to my place today?" Concubine Deng spoke in a sarcastic tone.

Lin Jiuer sat down next to Concubine Deng in a familiar manner.

"I'm thirsty. Bring me some tea. I have something good to discuss with you today."

Concubine Deng didn't believe that Lin Jiuer would have any good news, but she still asked, "What good news? Why don't you tell me?"

Lin Jiuer looked at Concubine Deng with a smile: "I heard that Concubine Deng is very good at managing money. I have a few beauty recipes here. How about we open a shop together and split the profits 30% and 70%?"
