The blacksmith lady is killing people in the harem, and her son is responsible for it.

Qin Wan held the little lion and followed Xiao Anzi to the backyard.

Eunuch Gao and Granny Ping followed closely behind the two.

The soldiers and the two Qin brothers helped carry eight large wooden boxes and followed behind.

After passing through the corridor of the outer courtyard and entering the inner courtyard, I saw several beautiful women, followed by pretty maids.

Qin Wan paused and looked at the women.

Xiao Anzi also stopped. When he came back, he didn't see these concubines outside the gate. He thought these concubines relied on their high status and didn't show up.

Unexpectedly, they were waiting at the gate of the inner courtyard.

Xiao Anzi bent over and said, "Madam, these are the concubines that the emperor bestowed upon the eldest prince!"

The arrogant women: “….”

They originally came here to laugh at Qin Wan and see how unfashionable this country bumpkin is.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Anzi actually called that woman "Madam".

Han Qingdai just glanced at Qin Wan and found that she was not to be feared, so she focused her attention on the little lion.

Especially when I saw the little lion's face, I subconsciously touched my belly.

The little lion felt that a beautiful aunt was looking at him, so he smiled at Han Qingdai.

Han Qingdai was stunned for a moment, and her heart sank. What a smart child!

Qin Wan just nodded and said softly, "Hello! I'm Qin Wan!"

She really was not in the mood to face Zhao Zhen's women right now.

On the way back, I was sitting in the carriage all the time and my butt was about to fall apart.

These past few months on the road have been extremely painful.

Qin Wan was in no mood to see these women, but they were unwilling to let her go.

Because of her relationship with the Third Lady, Li Peilan, who became Zhao Zhen's concubine, was bolder.

Li Peilan's father was Li Feng from the Honglu Temple. In addition, Madam Li gave some benefits to the third lady, so the third lady went to the palace and spoke well of the queen.

Therefore, Li Peilan was included among Zhao Zhen’s four concubines.

"Hey, Xiao Anzi, she is the Madam, then what are we?"

Among these four people, Li Peilan knew the most about Qin Wan.

Precisely because she knew so much, she did not take Qin Wan seriously.

What is there to be afraid of for a woman who can't even let her husband watch over her on her wedding night?

She knew that Qin Wan was once a nobody in the Marquis' Mansion, and she also knew that the person in the eldest prince's heart was not Qin Wan, so she did not hesitate to mock her.

Xiao Anzi smiled and said, "This is our eldest young master's wife, the wife that the eldest young master married with a formal matchmaker!"

When Xiao Anzi said this, the faces of the four concubines froze for a moment.

They all knew that Xiao Anzi had been taking care of Zhao Zhen since she was a child, and now all the affairs in the mansion were handled by Xiao Anzi.

Xiao Anzi is the general manager of the mansion.

When he said this, did he mean that this was what the eldest prince meant?

Han Qingdai felt that Li Peilan was brainless when he spoke just now.

No matter who is the madam, these women are not.

Even though Qin Wan was of low status, she was the daughter-in-law that the Zhao family had married before.

Now the eldest prince is not yet the crown prince, let alone the emperor.

It’s too early to discuss positions!

What's more, in the harem, being favored is the key. If you have a high position but are not favored, it is like being in the cold palace.

Han Qingdai took a few steps forward and came to Qin Wan's side. She bowed and said, "My sister greets me!"

Qin Wan did not miss Han Qingdai's hand touching her belly several times. This woman must be pregnant.

"Thank you, sister. Get up quickly!" Qin Wan hurriedly helped Han Qingdai up.

Qin Wan had already thought about the fact that Zhao Zhen had a woman around him.

In this dynasty, it was natural for men to have concubines.

Even if he is a poor scholar, if he passes the imperial examination, he still dreams of having a beautiful woman to accompany him!

What's more, when Zhao Zhen was in the Marquis' Mansion, he had his cousin Song Zhirou.

To her, Zhao Zhen was barely a partner.

As for the woman beside him, Qin Wan didn't take her to heart.

As for jealousy, that's out of the question.

However, we still need to find out the identities of these women.

These women are not her enemies, but their future children will be the little lion's rivals.

Qin Wan smiled and said, "I don't even know your name yet. You are really pretty, and you have such a noble demeanor. You look extraordinary!"

In her previous life, Qin Wan hated dealing with people. When guests came to her house, she preferred to stay in the corner and didn't want others to notice her.

But now, she has to come out and actively socialize.

And say nice things.

Qin Wan could only sigh that the environment changes people.

Thinking of her father, Han Qingdai's lips curled up slightly, but soon fell, "My sister's maiden name is Qingdai, and my father is Han Qishan, the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue."

What the hell!

The Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue is only one step away from the Minister of Revenue.

It’s quite a big deal!

"Sister Han is indeed from a famous family!" Qin Wan praised her without hesitation.

Qin Wan didn't want to make enemies right away, so she still had to put in some superficial effort.

Han Qingdai took the initiative to greet her. No matter whether she was sincere or not, she had to maintain her superficial politeness.

Seeing Han Qingdai do this, the other two concubines also came over and bowed to Qin Wan.

"My sister Qingyan, nice to meet you, my grandfather is the Imperial Censor Su Xun."

"Sister Lianmeng, nice to meet you, my father is Zhu Maosheng, the Junior Supervisor of Military Equipment."

Qin Wan smiled and said, "You two sisters are so polite. Please stand up."

The two concubines just bent their bodies and introduced themselves to each other, more because they wanted Qin Wan to know their identities.

It’s not that I respect Qin Wan that much.

Qin Wan was not a fool, so she naturally knew what they meant.

Otherwise, you can just say your own name, why mention your father and grandfather?

Li Peilan felt that the other three were too spineless.

She was not afraid of Qin Wan, nor did she want to introduce herself.

Qin Wan was holding the child and had no intention of exchanging pleasantries with them.

"My sisters also know that I just came back from the North, so I won't talk to you for now."

Han Qingdai immediately responded: "It's you sisters who are disturbing me. We will go to see you another day when we have time."

Han Qingdai didn't regard Qin Wan as her principal wife, so naturally she wouldn't say anything like "greetings".

That’s why I used the phrase “I’ll have time some other day”.

Qin Wan naturally understood what she meant. She just smiled and said calmly, "Sister Han may be pregnant. She should rest well. There is no need to rush to see me!"

Han Qingdai: “….”

Han Qingdai subconsciously touched her belly.

The nanny and maid behind her looked at Qin Wan with horror.

Su Qingyan and Zhu Lianmeng's eyes swept over Han Qingdai like a radar.

Even Li Peilan looked at Han Qingdai with resentment. She had been here for so long, but had not yet consummated her marriage with the eldest prince, and yet Han Qingdai was pregnant?

At this time, a sharp voice sounded, "Who is pregnant?"
