"His Royal Highness the Third Prince doesn't like you!" Jiang Wanwan finally shouted out these words.

"I haven't spent much time with His Royal Highness the Third Prince, so I won't say I like him lightly. But marriage is always a matter of parents' orders and matchmakers' words, and it's not up to you or me to decide."

"I don't have any feelings for him right now, but if we spend every day together, facing each other, won't we develop feelings for each other?"

"Besides, I don't care whether I have any affection for him or not. I am the eldest daughter of the former Duke of Zhenguo, and the princess personally appointed by the Queen Mother and His Majesty. I only want supreme honor. If he doesn't like me, I will promote concubines one after another for him. There must be one he likes, right? No matter how favored they are, they can't surpass me. What do I have to worry about?"

Hearing this, Jiang Wanwan became anxious. She was particularly afraid that there would be another woman around Zhao Zheyong.

So she slowly touched her belly, and she seemed to have regained her confidence as she spoke, "The Third Prince likes me, and I'm pregnant with his child."

Jiang Yunxi pretended to be stunned for a moment, panic flashed across her eyes, then she tried hard to calm down and forced a smile.

"Wanwan, a woman's reputation is the most important thing, please don't talk nonsense."

Seeing Jiang Yunxi's reaction, Jiang Wanwan knew that keeping the child was the right move.

Jiang Wanwan had a proud smile on her face. "This is the Third Prince's child. He and I have long been in love and have secretly conceived a child. He confessed his love to me very early on, and I accepted it. This child is the proof of our love."

"So, sister, please let go. Otherwise, both of you will be in an awkward situation."

"Hmph!" Jiang Yunxi narrowed his eyes and glanced at Jiang Wanwan. "You want me to let go? How ridiculous. You guys did something so shameful, but you want me to bear the consequences? Everyone thinks I'm the third prince's legitimate wife, and now you suddenly say he won't marry me? Where is my dignity?"

Jiang Wanwan could clearly sense Jiang Yunxi's panic, so she felt more confident - if she snatched the third prince Zhao Zheyong away, she could not only stay with Zhao Zheyong forever, but also make Jiang Yunxi lose face, so why not do it?

"No, I've already said that I don't mind taking a concubine for him. After I marry him, I can allow His Royal Highness the Third Prince to take you as a concubine. By then... the Queen Mother will definitely not allow a concubine's eldest son to be born above my child. Your child..."

Jiang Yunxi took a step towards Jiang Wanwan.

When Jiang Wanwan heard the implication of Jiang Yunxi's words, she thought that Jiang Yunxi was going to murder the baby in her belly. She immediately held the railing with one hand, covered her stomach with the other, and took a step back in fear.

"Don't even think about it!" Seeing that Jiang Yunxi was so afraid of the child, Jiang Wanwan became even more determined to protect the child. She was now determined to give birth to the child and let everyone see it!

"Why would I wait until after marriage?" Jiang Yunxi took another step forward, "I will never allow His Royal Highness the Third Prince to take you as a concubine. With your personality of causing trouble everywhere, I am also worried that you will bring trouble to me once you enter the mansion."

"Haha, as long as I don't let you in, this child will be an illegitimate child, a bastard that everyone can criticize!" Jiang Yunxi showed an evil smile.

Jiang Wanwan believed that Jiang Yunxi could definitely say and do it.

"At that time, I will sit on the street and watch you becoming homeless, being criticized and condemned by everyone. Just thinking about it makes me happy!" Jiang Yunxi laughed out loud.

Jiang Yunxi deliberately revealed this consequence to Jiang Wanwan so that Jiang Wanwan would know that she could only have a chance of survival if she fought hard now.

Otherwise, once the imperial decree granting marriage to Jiang Yunxi and Zhao Zheyong comes down, there will be no possibility for Jiang Wanwan and Zhao Zheyong to be together.

Jiang Wanwan was shocked by Jiang Yunxi's words. She immediately held her belly and ran away.

Jiang Wanwan staggered a little as she ran.

Nan Nan held Jiang Yunxi's hand and said, "Princess, this is still too good for her."

Jiang Yunxi curled her lips slightly, "Have you bribed the imperial physician from the Imperial Hospital?"

"Yes, Mr. Jiang has already been bribed."

"The little grandson of the emperor is going to have his one-year-old birthday celebration. Shall we go and take a look?" Jiang Yunxi walked towards the hall with a pure and innocent smile on her face again.

As if nothing had happened.

"Grab the pen!"

"Grab the wooden sword!"

"Abacus! Abacus!"

……

A group of people looked at the little grandson Zhao Tongyu anxiously, urging her to grab something.

Zhao Changta looked at Zhao Tongyu with a smile in his eyes, with expectations for her in his eyes.

The little prince lived up to everyone's expectations and grabbed a copy of the Three Character Classic.

The eldest prince Zhao Zhexuan was obviously relieved, and the eldest prince's wife Wei Wei smiled and picked up the little grandson Zhao Tongyu.

Everyone around gave compliments.

"This little grandson must be the god of literature, as he loves reading so much."

"The little grandson is so lucky."

……

"Speaking of which, seeing the little grandson holding the one-year-old ceremony reminded me of Yunxi's interesting childhood experiences." Zhao Changta suddenly looked at Jiang Yunxi.

Jiang Yunxi didn't understand.

"I remember that when the princess was having her hundred-day anniversary banquet, she crawled directly towards His Royal Highness Prince An and grabbed his jade pendant tightly, refusing to let go. It was not until His Royal Highness Prince An gave his jade pendant to the princess that she gave up." Concubine Xian smiled and seemed to have thought of the scene at that time.

Jiang Yunxi pursed her lips, thinking that she had no idea how many people had told this story to her.

She looked at Zhao Changyu, with a smile on her face, "It can be seen that I have a connection with the emperor's uncle. The person I chose was not bad."

Zhao Changyu looked at her curved eyes and suddenly remembered the image of Jiang Yunxi's small hand pulling the tassel of his jade pendant nineteen years ago.

At that time, he just felt that he was finally not the youngest child in the entire palace.

Looking at the bubbly Jiang Yunxi, Zhao Changyu liked this little sister very much and would poke her little face from time to time.

Jiang Yunxi didn't have much strength at that time, but she just held on to his jade pendant tightly. He was reluctant to pry her hands apart and hurt her.

But this jade pendant was a treasure given to him by his father, and he had been wearing it since he was born.

He couldn't bear to give it to her.

But when Jiang Yunxi looked at him and pleaded with her clear eyes, he softened his heart.

The jade pendant fell into Jiang Yunxi's hands.

However, after Jiang Yunxi grew up, he realized the importance of this jade pendant to Zhao Changyu and knew that Zhao Changyu missed the late emperor, so he returned the jade pendant to Zhao Changyu.

But this joke is still spread among people in the palace to this day.

A gentle smile appeared in Zhao Changyu's eyes.

Xian Fei fanned herself and echoed, "It's really fate. The princess has been staying with His Royal Highness Prince An since she was a child. When she was young, no one could coax her. She had to be coaxed by His Royal Highness Prince An before she could sleep well."
