"Mother, I am only twenty now. You said you are anxious about the child, but Aunt Liu is pregnant. As for seeking benefits through marriage, it is unnecessary. I don't understand why you are always entangled in these insignificant things!"

Lu Yingqin claimed that he was not a gentleman, nor was he someone who pursued pure love. He could take concubines, but he had to think about it himself, otherwise he would always feel that he was putting himself in a difficult position and had to favor those people.

"I do all this for you. Do you know what people are saying about you now? That guy doesn't have a good reputation in the first place. Now you bring a concubine to this kind of palace banquet. Do you want to add another stigma of favoring a concubine over your wife?" Princess Jinghe looked angry. She covered her chest and pointed at him.

She really regrets it now. If she had known this would happen, she should not have chosen someone with a good appearance. Now, her son is completely obsessed with her.

Lu Yingqin was afraid that what he said would make the woman angry, so he just bowed and said, "Since mother is not feeling well, I will not bother her any more."

Princess Jinghe was silent for a moment before she said to her personal nanny, "Look at him, is he trying to piss me off to death?"

"Princess, my master has always been sensible in what he does. It's just that..." The personal nanny wanted to blame the concubine for being coquettish, but when she saw Nanny Liu, she remembered that she was his daughter, so she couldn't scold her in front of her. She changed the subject abruptly: "These are actually not a big deal. The key is that it's best for my master not to get involved with my cousin now."

Nanny Liu lowered her head and remained silent.

But even if she kept silent, the princess would not let her go: "Look, look at the good daughter you taught!"

Meng Yutang knew about entering the palace, so Lu Yingqin still went to Liu Fuyin that night.

"I'll take you to the palace tomorrow on Mid-Autumn Festival." As soon as Lu Yingqin entered the room, he sat down next to her skillfully, took the tea handed to him by the maid and drank it.

The days of pregnancy are also boring. When Liu Fuyin is free, she either studies food or does needlework. She is currently embroidering something.

"I won't go." When Lu Yingqin came over, she put down her needlework and snuggled into his arms, resting her chin on the man's shoulder and said lazily.

She was always so clingy, and Lu Yingqin had long been accustomed to it. He placed his hand on her back and gently rubbed it, "Why don't you go? Are you worried that Meng will be unhappy? I see that you have such a good relationship, she should be happy to take you with her."

Liu Fuyin raised her face from her chest, "Sister Meng wouldn't be unhappy. She's fine. It's just that I'm pregnant and very tired. I don't want to go."

She really didn't want to. She was a concubine, and if she insisted on attending the palace banquet, she would be of the lowest rank. She would have to look at everyone's face when she met them, which would be tiring.

The belly was not big after more than three months. Lu Yingqin looked at it carefully for several times and said, "It's only been a few months and you don't want to go out. What will happen in the future? You won't participate in any activities?"

"If I want to go out and play, I'll go if I have you to protect me!"

"You really are, you're talking as if there's some monster in the palace?"

"You will have to kneel down all the time when you go to the palace. It's tiring." Liu Fuyin hugged the person and acted coquettishly.

Who doesn't consider participating in a palace banquet an honor? Last time, she said she wouldn't go because she had no status or position, but now that I'm a concubine, he would agree to her request no matter how much he thought about it. So I went to tell my mother first, and we were in a stalemate for a while. Unexpectedly, she didn't want to go because of this again.

He didn't know what to say.

But if she thought about it carefully, it would not be safe for her to kneel down while she was pregnant, so Lu Yingqin did not persuade her. He glanced at her and picked up the embroidery pattern.

"What is that? A chicken or a duck? Don't tell me it's for me. I can't wear it outside."

"It's not for you!" Liu Fuyin snatched it away with an unhappy look on her face, and said in embarrassment: "What chicken or duck? This is clearly a mandarin duck, okay? Did I just coax you into saying I liked that sachet before?"

It's not that she is really not good at embroidery. After all, she has experienced so many worlds and her embroidery skills have been practiced for a long time. But for the sake of fun, she deliberately made it look ugly.

"I'm your man, who else can you give this embroidery to if not me?"

"I'm giving this to Sister Meng. She's in need of a sachet, so this is the perfect gift for her."

When he heard that it was for Meng Yutang, he was unhappy again. He took it in his hand and praised it as "unique", and then affirmed: "This must be for me. How can I give it to others when we are already mandarin ducks?"
