After traveling through time, the adults were completely in my hands

In the Kingdom of Yue, in the Queen's bedroom.

At this moment, the Empress was persuading Crown Prince Jingyu: "My son, your father has asked you to review memorials and begin to supervise the country. At such an important moment, you actually want to run to Daqing. My son, you must put the overall situation first!"

"Mother," Jing Yu said, sitting on a chair, emphasizing, "This son does not want the throne."

"My son, how can you say such words?" The Queen was a little angry. "You have been appointed as the Crown Prince since you were young, and you are responsible for the future of Yue State. How can you say such words for a girl now?"

Looking at her son, who had become noticeably thinner and more haggard over the past two days, the Empress felt a pity for him. She sighed and said, "My son, I know what you're thinking. As long as you get the Crown Princess pregnant, I won't care about you no matter what you do in the future."

"Moreover, you made the Crown Princess pregnant, and you also have to give an explanation to her. Otherwise, how can you let her gain a foothold in this palace? My son, you have to put the overall situation first," the Queen advised earnestly.

East Palace, in the study.

Jing Yu sat behind the desk, opened the book, picked up a dried sunflower petal and placed it in his palm.

Seeing the things reminds me of the person. Jing Yu's heart is now filled with longing and pain.

Jindou, you promised to wait for me to come back before leaving, why didn’t you wait for me, Jing Yu murmured to himself.

Putting the sunflower petals into the book, Jing Yu sat silently on the chair for a long time. Thinking of what his mother said, that he had to give an explanation to the Crown Princess, he slowly stood up, walked out of the room and walked towards the bedroom.

In the bedroom, Princess Jing'an was sitting at the table reading a medical book, while Yingxiang was standing beside her, fanning her gently.

"Princess Consort, why don't you take a bowl of porridge and go see the Crown Prince?" Yingxiang whispered while fanning herself.

The Crown Prince rested in the palace for a few nights during the first two days of his wedding, and then he slept in the study. Now the maids and nannies in the East Palace look at the Crown Princess with strange eyes. I guess they don't know what they are discussing in private.

There is only one Crown Princess in the Eastern Palace now. If there are concubines or concubines in the Eastern Palace in the future, the Crown Princess will be even more neglected.

"No need to go." Princess Jing'an listened to Yingxiang's words and shook her head slightly. This might be her fate. She was destined to be lonely all her life.

"Crown Princess, you should be more proactive," Yingxiang couldn't help but advise again.

The Crown Princess's temperament is too quiet. Yingxiang has been serving Princess Jing'an since she was a child, so she naturally understands Princess Jing'an's temperament very well.

Since childhood, Princess Jing'an has never left the house because of the birthmark on her face and rarely goes to crowded places. As a result, she has developed a law-abiding and taciturn personality.

But originally, that was in Daqing, and Princess Jing'an was just a princess. She didn't need to compete for favor or show up in public. Moreover, if anything happened, she had the support of the Queen Mother.

But now, they have arrived in Yue State, and Princess Jing'an has become the Crown Princess. In the future, she will be the Queen of Yue State and the head of the imperial harem.

If Princess Jing'an continues to be as silent and taciturn as she is now, wouldn't she be considered weak and easily bullied, and people would take advantage of her?

Yingxiang was really worried about Princess Jing'an at this moment. Now that she had arrived in Yue State, without the support of the Queen Mother, everything had to depend on Princess Jing'an herself.

And the only person Princess Jing'an can rely on in the Kingdom of Yue is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

If Princess Jing'an could be more generous and proactive, and with her beauty, how could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not be moved? But why can't Princess Jing'an change her temper and be more proactive?

Be more proactive? Princess Jing'an listened to Yingxiang's words and shook her head silently. She would not do it, nor could she do it. If someone doesn't like you, no matter how proactive you are, what's the use?

In the bedroom, just as the master and servant were lost in their own thoughts, they heard a eunuch outside the door shout, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here!" Yingxiang was overjoyed when she heard it, and hurriedly stood aside properly.

When Princess Jing'an heard that the prince was coming, she was more surprised than happy, and she couldn't help but look up towards the door.

When Jing Yu walked into the room, he met Princess Jing'an's eyes immediately. Seeing Princess Jing'an hurriedly lowered her head, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Isn't this princess's temperament too weak? Logically speaking, as a princess with a noble status, she should have a stronger temperament.

Here, Yingxiang saw Jingyu walking in, and after hurriedly bowing, she turned around and walked out, closing the door. Yingxiang only hoped in her heart that Princess Jing'an could seize the opportunity to please His Royal Highness the Crown Prince more.

After all, in the Kingdom of Yue, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the only one the princess can rely on.

At this moment, Jing Yu walked to the bedside and sat down. He glanced at Princess Jing'an, who was still sitting on the chair, looking somewhat bewildered, and said, "It's getting late. Go to bed early."

On the second day, in the central palace, the Queen was lying on the couch to rest when she saw Nanny Li, who was serving her, walking in hurriedly.

"Your Majesty, I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stayed in the palace last night," said Nanny Li with a happy face.

"Really?" Upon hearing this, the Empress quickly held out her arm and asked the maid beside her to help her up. She asked again, "Is this true?"

"It is absolutely true. I have asked the housekeeper of the East Palace. However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still left the bedroom early in the morning and went to the study," said Nanny Li.

"It's fine as long as you stay in the palace," the Empress sighed. "I don't ask for anything now. As long as the Crown Princess can get pregnant soon and give birth to a grandson for me, I won't have any worries."

"Don't worry, Madam," Nanny Li comforted her. "It seems that His Royal Highness has taken everything you said yesterday to heart. From now on, His Royal Highness will prioritize the overall interests when doing things."

"Alas, when I think about it, I have indeed treated my prince unfairly," the Empress sighed and said softly, "Since he was young, I have taught him that as the Crown Prince, he must prioritize the overall interests. However, I have never considered his own feelings."

Shaking her head, the Empress said in a low voice, "I, the Queen Mother, am still too selfish."

"Your Majesty, please stop saying that." Nanny Li saw the Queen's sad face and quickly spoke up to persuade her, "Your Majesty, everything you do is for His Highness's good. His Highness the Crown Prince will surely understand your painstaking efforts."
