No, I was just a concubine, how did I become the queen?

Now Lin Mingyan doesn’t have to worry about anything. The two Changs go to play with the children, and Lin Mingyan only needs to pay attention to them.

"Fourth sister-in-law, you are so lucky," Fourteenth Princess Shushu Jueluo whispered in her ear.

Originally, Shushujueluo, a princess, was not qualified to celebrate the New Year in Yonghe Palace.

But one of Fourteenth's two princesses died of a sudden illness a few years ago.

Now he was afraid that if he went to lead the banquet, Shushujueluo would be alone and lonely in the prince's residence, so he begged Concubine De to let her come here to pay New Year's greetings.

Defei never refused his requests, and this was not an excessive request.

Lin Mingyan was also a princess, so naturally she would not follow Guo Luoluo's theory of legitimate and illegitimate children, and she was on good terms with her.

But Shushujueluo was also a well-behaved and honest girl. She hadn't said much all morning and only started talking to her now.

Lin Mingyan smiled back at her and said something auspicious: "Fourteen is still young. You will have a headache if you have too many children in the future."

"Having many children means more blessings." Hearing her say this, Concubine De curled up the corners of her mouth, looking very happy.

Shushu Jueluo, who was standing next to her, withdrew her gaze from the child, quietly stroked her belly, and sighed in her heart.

The Fourteenth Master has many children, and it must be related to her.

Now that the wife has not yet entered the house, the two princesses are drinking contraceptive soup.

This stuff is bad for women's health. If you drink too much, how will you give birth in the future?

In the past, there was a woman named Wu who helped her share the burden. The two of them took turns, so she had to drink less contraceptive soup.

But now that Wu has passed away, she is left alone. How can she endure this?!

After seeing her finish her two sentences and then stare straight at Honghui, Lin Mingyan roughly guessed her pain.

But this is the rule of the royal family. The concubine is pregnant before the wife even enters the house. There is no such thing in the world.

However, on Fourteenth's side, the wife came in too late. Shushujueluo had given Fourteenth such a long time, but there was no sign of her coming in.

Both of them thought of this, looked at each other, and smiled awkwardly.

The Defei above saw the expressions of the two people clearly. With her experience, she certainly knew what they were thinking.

He explained, "Wanyan is ill. We were supposed to get married next year, but now we estimate we'll have to postpone it for a year."

This legitimate wife has both good family background and good looks, but unfortunately, she doesn't have a broad mind.

This is because he inquired about Fourteenth's favorite, Shushu Jueluo, and she became sick from anger and has not recovered yet.

The wedding originally scheduled for June next year is probably not going to happen.

We have to wait until Wanyan recovers and see if she is still suitable to be the prince's wife.

If this can't be taken care of properly, we have to replace the person as soon as possible.

Defei was also feeling upset, but she didn't want to tell anyone about it, so it was okay to tell her daughter-in-law.

Lin Mingyan quickly responded, "Don't worry, mother. My sister-in-law is a lucky person. Everything will go smoothly for sure."

Shushu Jueluo had never heard of this news and was stunned for a moment. It was only when Lin Mingyan pulled her clothes that she reacted and said a few nice words.

But after she finished speaking, she felt even more miserable.

It was originally only supposed to last another half a year, but now it has been pushed back another year.

Not to mention anything else, who would have the patience to drink that bitter medicine?

But I can't push the man away, and now there is no place to push him.

Sometimes outsiders see you as favored, but only you know the pain behind it.

This whole year was spent listening to the gossip of the Wanyan family.

"The Empress has already become displeased with Wanyan before she even entered the house," Lin Mingyan loved to tell these gossips to the Fourth Master.

The Fourth Master smiled and said, "Little fool, the Queen is just saying it to coax you."

"When Wanyan comes into the family, she will definitely be favored more than you."

"Huh? You look down on me so much?" Lin Mingyan glared at him.

No way, no way, when did the Fourth Master learn how to use PUA?

But the Fourth Master said, "I'm not looking down on you, I just see myself clearly."

"No matter how bad Wanyan is, as long as she is Fourteenth's wife, Your Majesty will not neglect her in the slightest."

"No matter how good my silly Cha Cha is, she will never put you before the Wanyan clan."

When I thought about this when I was young, I was filled with anger.

But now he admits it openly, hoping that Cha Cha won't be too disappointed.

He wanted to let her know: It’s not that you are not good enough that the queen likes someone else more, it’s just that I am not good enough.

Lin Mingyan understood and tears fell.

This is a preference that is endorsed by history!

So angry!

"I don't care whether others put me in front or behind, it's enough that I put me in front!" Lin Mingyan put her arms around his neck and acted coquettishly.

The fourth master's chest was shaking with laughter: "No, I care about you~"

hiss~

This is so sweet that it makes your teeth fall out.

But...she loves it!

After this incident, the Fourth Master thought of Thirteen again.

"The other day Thirteenth toasted me at the banquet and thanked you for giving him boots," the Fourth Master brought up this topic.

Lin Mingyan knew that the two brothers had a good relationship, but at the moment it seemed that their relationship was just average, not even as good as that with their biological brother Fourteen.

She asked doubtfully, "Thirteen is older than fourteen, right? Is his marriage settled?"

At that time, marriage was based on seniority. If the elder brother was not married, it would not be the younger brother's turn.

She thought that when Thirteen got married, she would do her best to contribute and establish a good relationship with the other party's wife.

After all, the Thirteenth Master is the Fourth Master's future right-hand man, so they should get along well.

The Fourth Master said gloomily, "Thirteen's marriage...hasn't been decided yet."

Not to mention the wedding date, we haven’t even decided on the wedding partner yet.

Sometimes the Emperor clearly cared about Thirteen very much, but when it came to such important matters, he seemed to have completely forgotten about him.

"Ah? No one mentioned that?"

"Mention it? Who dares to mention it? Wouldn't it be like offending the Emperor to death by saying this, and scolding him for not having this son in his heart?" The Fourth Master snorted coldly.

Everyone with eyes and ears knew that Thirteen's marriage was still undecided, but no one dared to mention it in front of the Emperor.

Even Concubine De didn't dare to say anything about Fourteenth's marriage, otherwise she would get into trouble.

This is the disadvantage of not having a mother. If Zhang Jia was still alive, even if she was no longer favored, she could send someone to tell the emperor.

The biological mother brought it up out of love for her son, so the emperor would not say anything.

Others brought it up because they wanted to win over Thirteen.

So Concubine De didn't dare to leak even a single word.

So even Mr. Ba, who loved to do good things the most, didn't dare to say a word.

Marriage is a big deal, and Thirteen can't just go out on his own and say that he wants to get married.

"What should we do? What if Fourteen gets married? What will happen to Thirteen?" Lin Mingyan was anxious.

How embarrassing it would be if the younger brother got married before the older brother!
