Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 423

"Tell me, what is she doing? Back then, when everyone was advising the Crown Prince to take in a concubine, I didn't force him to do so. Now, she is the only mistress in the Eastern Palace, and she is still making such a fuss. If the Crown Prince has many concubines in the future, won't she die?" The Queen thought to herself, if she was as suspicious as the Crown Princess, she would have no chance of survival.

"Empress, the Crown Princess may be feeling insecure, which is why she is so stubborn. Think about it, before the Crown Princess gave birth, the Crown Prince tried his best to spend time with her. After the birth of the child, the Crown Prince became much busier because of my prince's illness. He may have neglected her, which is why she..." Qiao Anan thought for a moment and said carefully.

"How else do you want a sense of security? We didn't appoint a concubine when she was pregnant, nor did we send a palace maid to the Eastern Palace. The sense of security we gave her was already more than enough." The Queen said with some dissatisfaction in her heart.

I felt that the Crown Princess was suffering from a disease of being too comfortable.

"Empress, think about it, when you first gave birth to the prince, if your father didn't care about you, would you be disappointed?" Qiao Anan said carefully. After all, she didn't know what the situation was like when the queen gave birth to the prince.

At this time, the queen was silent. When she gave birth to the prince, the emperor was busy with government affairs and other concubines were eyeing him covetously.

I feel lost too.

Empress Xian originally thought that Qiao Anan was thinking too much, but after hearing what Qiao Anan said, she thought about the situation when she gave birth to Chu Haojue. The emperor was not the emperor of any of them.

They gave birth to a prince, but still had to worry about whether the prince would be harmed by someone.

"Empress, I think the Crown Princess is making trouble with the Crown Prince because she wants more attention from him. I think the Crown Prince should have a good talk with the Crown Princess, lay things out and make things clear, and maybe that will be all right." Qiao Anan suggested carefully.

"Really?" The Queen was a little skeptical. After all, the Crown Princess was making such a fuss. Could it be that she really did it just to get the Crown Prince's attention, as Qiao Anan said?

"Empress, the Crown Princess had a rough journey giving birth to the Emperor's eldest grandson. I think what she wants more is the Crown Prince's love." Qiao Anan said affirmatively.

After all, in later generations, aren’t there so many people suffering from postpartum depression because they are not treated fairly?

"Maybe what An An said makes sense." The Queen thought about it. As a woman, she could actually understand the Crown Princess's anxiety at this moment.

After all, she gave birth to the eldest grandson of the emperor, and her natal family could no longer be her support, while her original supporter, the prince, was very busy.

Seeing that the Queen had figured it out, Qiao Anan said goodbye, "Your Majesty, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

"I'm really sorry to bother you today. You come to the palace with such a big belly and chat with me, an old woman." The queen said a little embarrassedly.

"Your Majesty, please be polite. It's just that I can't help you in any way." Qiao Anan said embarrassedly.

"How could that be? Your words really enlightened me and were of great help to me." The queen said quickly.

"I wonder if the Second Prince is feeling better now?" The Queen thought about Chu Haojue again and asked quickly.

"I'm sorry to have worried you, Your Highness. I'm much better now," Qiao Anan said with a smile.

"In that case, I am relieved. Let's go back today." The queen was really relieved when she heard this. She was worried, so she called Qiao Anan over. Chu Haojue was still very ill.

However, the queen was still anxious to talk to the prince.

"Sister Queen, please go and do your work first. I will send An An back and visit Jue'er by the way." When Empress Xian heard that her son was much better, she also wanted to go and see him.

"Empress." Nanny Zheng came over with a few palace maids and some things.

"You should send these things and the Second Prince's wife back to the Qiao family." The Queen ordered.

"Yes!" Nanny Zheng quickly accepted the order.

The queen watched Qiao Anan and the others leave until their backs disappeared, then she ordered the palace maid beside her to invite the prince over.

She was also thinking about what Qiao Anan said today.

Suddenly, I felt a little sorry for the Crown Princess.

I went through the same thing myself, but before that, the first thing that came to my mind was blame.

However, she is not only the mother-in-law of the Crown Princess, but also the mother of the Crown Prince.

She would understand the difficulties faced by the Crown Princess, but she also had to consider her son's thoughts.

"Mother, do you have something to talk to me about?" The Crown Prince was really annoyed by the Crown Princess's recent disturbances.

He didn't understand why the Crown Princess, who was obviously dignified and polite, became different after giving birth to a child.

"Please sit down. Today, let's have a chat as mother and son." The queen looked at the prince, and finally, she sighed and said.

"Mother, is there anything you want to tell me?" the prince asked in confusion.

"Today, let's just chat, mother and son." The queen looked at the prince and suddenly remembered that when she had just given birth to the prince, the emperor was not yet the emperor, but also the prince.

However, at that time, the prince had to follow the late emperor to learn how to govern the country, and had to guard against his brothers harming him.

In order to consolidate the emperor's position as crown prince, the emperor had already appointed two concubines, Defei and Shufei.

While taking care of two children, she also has to be on guard against other people harming her.

"In the blink of an eye, you have grown up and become a father." The queen sighed.

"Mother, is there anything unhappy today?" The prince clearly felt that the queen was in a bad mood and asked with some concern.

After all, the Crown Princess has been through enough trouble these days, and the Crown Prince is really worried that something will happen to the Queen again, and he is really exhausted.

"My son, now that the Crown Princess has given birth to the Emperor's eldest grandson, I wonder when you plan to appoint a concubine?" The Queen asked the Crown Prince.

"Mother, I have said that I do not want to have a concubine. I only want to have a crown princess." The prince quickly knelt in front of the queen and said.

He didn't understand why the queen brought up the issue of establishing a concubine out of the blue?

The Crown Princess, who had just been pulled to the back hall by the palace maid, was originally very anxious, but the Queen's words shocked her.

The Crown Princess's face looked very bad at this time. She was shocked to realize that the man she married was the Crown Prince. According to the ancestral system, the Crown Prince could marry two concubines and four concubines.

And what she has been doing in the Eastern Palace these days, isn't it just because she is the only female master in the Eastern Palace?

Thinking of this, the Crown Princess felt a little shaky.

"But, the Crown Princess's mother's family actually committed the act of replacing the emperor's grandson. Don't you hate them?" The Queen looked at the Crown Prince and asked word by word.

Upon hearing this, the Crown Princess clenched her hands, feeling extremely scared that she would hear the answer she didn't want to hear. Did the Crown Prince hate her?
