Secrets of Yuqing Palace

Everyone quickly restrained their expressions and respectfully paid their respects to the Empress Dowager at the top.

Wanyu, along with the Fifth Princess and all the other concubines, performed the junior's salute.

But no one dared to take Joe.

After the two of them saluted, they stood up and sat back down again.

Wanyu and the fifth princess sat next to the Queen Mother.

The concubines, led by the imperial concubine, sat on both sides of the lower seat.

As for the First and Fourth Concubines, they sat behind Concubine Hui and Concubine De.

With the help of the imperial concubine, the atmosphere became lively again and Ningshou Palace soon became lively again.

Perhaps Concubine Hui was unwilling to be suppressed by a little girl and wanted to find some sense of existence on New Year's Eve.

She spoke to Depin with a smile.

"Sister Depin, I heard a few days ago that the Fourth Prince's concubine is pregnant. Is she almost three months pregnant now?"

"Sister, congratulations to my younger sister on becoming a maternal grandmother soon. You are so blessed to have grandchildren around you. Sister Depin is truly blessed."

"Sifu Jin is so young, she doesn't have to endure the pain of childbirth, and she can become my mother. This is truly a blessing."

She emphasized the three words "concubine".

Wanyu frowned.

"This Concubine Hui is really restless. She even keeps quiet on New Year's Eve!"

However, when she heard Concubine Hui mention the concubine to Concubine De, she immediately paid secret attention to Concubine De.

Although the clues leading to Yonghe Palace are incredible, sometimes the most unlikely one is the truth.

So she did not stop suspecting Depin.

When Depin heard Huifei mention that the concubine was pregnant, her eyes trembled slightly, and her hands holding the handkerchief suddenly tightened.

Wanyu quickly glanced at the Fourth Lady behind her. Although she pretended to be mature and tried her best to maintain her dignified and stable personality, she was still young after all and could not keep a completely silent expression.

The corners of her mouth, which were slightly curved in the past, had now flattened, and there was no smile in her eyes.

Depin whispered softly, "Speaking of blessings, my younger sister is no less fortunate than my elder sister. She has already enjoyed the joy of having children and grandchildren around her."

"Thinking about having four lively and cute little princesses, surrounding their big sister Mama and calling her Mama all the best, I'm really envious."

Concubine Hui's face darkened. She glanced at her daughter-in-law Irgen Jueluo behind her, and then looked at Concubine De and mocked her.

"Since my sister is so envious, I think she likes the little princess too. Who knows, maybe the concubine can make her wish come true."

"Sister, you must love the little princess more when the time comes."

Depin smiled and said lightly, "Of course."

"Thank you for your kind words today."

Seeing that she couldn't get any good thing from Concubine De, Concubine Hui looked at Wanyu beside the Empress Dowager and said with ill intention.

"If I were to tell you, it would be great if Concubine Fujin's baby was a little prince."

"Then our emperor will be able to hold his eldest grandson."

"It's a bit of a pity. If this baby was carried by the Crown Princess, I think the Emperor would be more pleased to see the birth of his eldest grandson."

"But the Concubine and the Crown Princess are sisters. The elder sister is pregnant, so the younger sister should also be happy."

"What do you think, Princess?"

Wanyu sneered in her heart!

"What does Concubine Hui want to do?"

"To sow discord between me and my third sister?"

"If my sister can survive this pregnancy, I really hope it's a little boy!"

"Often, only those who lack something will pay special attention to that thing, just like Concubine Hui and the eldest prince."

"Everyone in the former and harem knew that the eldest prince Yinzhi and Concubine Hui were desperate for a legitimate son."

"Why did the First Concubine give birth to four children in a row? It's because all four were little princesses!"

"Now, the eldest wife looks like a skinny stick, with little energy and vitality. It is obvious that she is injured."

"Now I heard that Concubine Hui is still trying to urge the first wife to give birth, and she's not afraid that her daughter-in-law will lose her life because of this! What a wicked mother and son!"

"Is it because you saw that Yinzhen's concubines and princesses in the backyard were pregnant that you became even more anxious?"

"Do you want to draw everyone's attention to your third sister and prevent her from having children?"

If she didn't think that the first wife was unlucky to marry such a terrible person and meet such a wicked mother-in-law, she would have directly exposed Concubine Hui's face!

"It is men who decide whether a child is a boy or a girl."

"I sowed sesame seeds, but do you expect them to grow into big watermelons?"

Wanyu said with a smile: "Sister, I am pregnant, of course I am happy."

"But I don't know whether Khan Ama would be more pleased to see the birth of the eldest grandson of the emperor."

Then she sighed and said something heartbreaking.

"Alas, our Crown Prince is so unlucky. The Empress passed away so early. Otherwise, he would have been able to stay with Khan Ama for so long like Consort Hui did, and understand Khan Ama's feelings better."

Hearing the Crown Princess's counterattack, all the concubines were horrified.

[To presume to guess the Holy Spirit's will is a crime of great disrespect!]

[Even Empress Yuan was implicated, describing the Crown Prince as a pitiful little thing.]

If the Emperor heard this, Concubine Hui would be in great pain!

[The Crown Princess is so bold.]

The Imperial Concubine and the Concubine Yi looked at each other, with affirmation and recognition in their eyes.

Since they want to board the prince's ship, they have to observe whether the ship is stable.

Now it seems that it should be a good choice!

[The Crown Prince is favored, and the Crown Princess is no less favored.]

[Previously, the Crown Prince had no one in the harem, no one to whisper to the Emperor. This was considered a shortcoming of the Crown Prince in the harem, but no one had ever brought it up.]

[I'm afraid even the Emperor himself wouldn't have thought of this.]

[Concubine Hesheli is just a lucky charm, not favored at all, and has no say in front of the emperor.]

[But this Crown Princess is no pushover.]

[Now that I've taken the initiative to expose the Crown Prince's shortcomings, the Emperor will be more tolerant of him after he learns about them.]

[Also, the Empress Dowager has a good relationship with the Crown Princess. Although she doesn't interfere in state affairs, as long as Mongolia isn't mentioned, her words are more effective in front of the Emperor than those of the Empress Dowager!]

[It seems like he is complaining about his grievances, but in fact he is taking a step back to advance.]

Wanyu ignored Huifei's dark and stiff expression and continued to set a trap for her.

"If it weren't for Concubine Hui's reminder, neither I nor the Crown Prince would have thought of this."

"If the Crown Prince does something wrong in the future and displeases Khan Ama, I'm afraid he won't even know it, and there's no mother to remind him, so the misunderstanding will only deepen."

She looked at the Queen Mother worriedly and said pitifully.

"Madam, your granddaughter-in-law is truly worried."

"You love the prince and your granddaughter-in-law the most, so you must help your granddaughter-in-law."

Everyone was shocked again.

[The Crown Princess is counterattacking Concubine Hui's inability to understand the Emperor's intentions.]

[He even used Concubine Hui's words to dig a hole for her and buried her directly!]

With Aunt Ulan behind her as her translator, the Empress Dowager naturally understood the conversation between Concubine Hui and the Crown Princess.

She was also aware of the wit between the two.

But she supports the Crown Princess!

She looked at the Crown Princess soothingly.

"Good boy, don't worry."

"The Empress Yuan died early, and the Emperor was busy with state affairs all day long, so he really didn't have much time to consider the affairs of the harem."

"If you and the Crown Prince ever anger the Emperor, feel free to come to me. I will personally go to the Emperor and explain to him on your behalf."

"If there's a misunderstanding between father and son, it must be resolved quickly. Since you don't have a middleman, I'll be the one!"
