"I understand wangfei's meaning, but I'm afraid that with Xu Sang's noble status and humble status, he may have the heart to do so!" Qi Qi Qi secretly stuck out her tongue and lowered her head to cover all the expressions on her face.
"No matter how noble Madam Xu is, she hasn't appeared in the past three years. Even though your status can't compare to hers, you're pregnant. Now you have the qualifications to fight her." Sun Yiyi's mother immediately tried to persuade her after receiving her gaze. There were some words that a person with the status of an imperial concubine couldn't say out loud. That would be the time for her to take action.
"Then, how do we fight?" Qi Qi raised her head and looked timidly at Jiang's and Sun's mother.
"Naturally, it is to seize the heart of the prince while the Xu family is grounded. Women, in this house, the greatest safety is in obtaining a man's heart. Once a man's heart is set off, everything you do is right."
Sun Yiyi's mother handed a cup of brewed tea to the Jiang family, turned her head to look at Qi Qi, and suppressed her voice with a dubious expression.
Qi Qi Qi raised his hand and caressed his face, then looked at Jiang Shi, then looked at Sun Yiyi's mother, and then mustered up the courage to say:
"I would like to as well, but I also know my own limitations. With my looks, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter your eyes."
When the Jiang Clan heard this, they covered their mouths and smiled. They took out their handkerchiefs to wipe the corner of their mouths, but there was no tea mark. "To obtain a man's heart, one doesn't have to do it personally."
"Then... "Then what should we do?" Qi Qi Jian looked at the Jiang Clan with a perplexed expression, but after she said this, she refused to speak any further. She only said that she was tired, and left Sun Yiyi's mother to talk with her, and with the support of a young maid, she entered the inner room.
Sun Yiyi's mother watched as the princess entered the room before turning around to pull Qi Seventh with her hand as she smiled.
"Mother Sun, what are you laughing about? Also, what did Princess Hua-Yang mean by what she said just now? "
"Come, come, there's no rush. Mother Sun will tell you everything."
Sun Yiyi's mother pulled Qi Qi to the side and sat down. Only after she got close to Qi Qi did she begin to whisper in her ear.
"Now that you're pregnant, even if you want to serve the Prince, you can't, right?"
Seeing Qi Qi Jian nod her head dumbly, Sun Yiyi's mother continued:
If you want a man's heart, it's actually very simple. As long as you think of what he wants, you just need to hurry him up. Right now, you have already fulfilled the greatest wish of the king, and with the woman who filled the courtyard, you must have lost your heart. Otherwise, how could the king be willing to punish her so easily?
"Then... So what am I going to do next? "
Qi Qi looked up at Sun Yiyi's mother, as if she didn't understand what she meant at all.
Sun Yiyi's mother pointed at his forehead and continued to explain: "You, you, why are you so ignorant? "With this child here, the prince will definitely come to see you whenever he has time, but you can't wait on him. Don't tell me every time the prince comes, you want him to leave in the middle of the night?"
"Then... Then there was still the princess consort! "This servant lives in Princess Wangfei's courtyard. After Prince has seen this servant's place, you can rest here directly. This way, you won't have to run around."
"You, ah, you really don't understand. It's better to pretend that you don't understand. If you say something disrespectful," Sun Yiyi's mother lowered her voice even more. "Since wangfei is already old, how can you bear to share a room with your old wife every day? Even if it's the occasional time, but every day …" "Heh, I'm afraid that your highness won't be able to walk around like this everyday. I won't be coming to see you in the future. This person's feelings are all out of place. If we don't get along, it'll be easy."
"Then... "Then what should we do?"
"You're really stupid to say you're stupid. Other than you and your wife, is there no other woman in the world?" Sun Yiyi's mother poured a cup of hot tea and handed it over to Qi Qi, while a calculating look flashed across her eyes.
"Other women …" Qi Qi lowered her head to ponder for a while, then looked up at Sun Yiyi with a puzzled look. "Is there any difference between that and going out to find the other sisters in the backyard after you've seen me?"
"Of course it's different. Go find the other women in the backyard, that's to push our prince out. We want his heart to be kept in his concubine's yard."
Seventh Madame still didn't seem to understand what she meant and couldn't help but feel a little irritated. This blockhead was really stupid, but then again, wasn't this girl the one Princess Hua-Yang took a fancy to? If his thoughts were complicated and he could understand everything, then he wouldn't be able to relax when using it.
Thinking of this, Sun Yiyi's mother forcefully suppressed her impatience and adjusted the expression on her face.
When the prince comes over, you can let these maids serve the prince. As long as you hold the prince in your arms, when you give birth to your child, the prince will reward you with great effort. Perhaps, you can even raise your position.
Sun Yiyi's mother raised her chin towards the west and said in a low voice: "As long as that one is gone, maybe you can live there."
Hearing this, Qi Qi immediately covered Sun Yiyi's mother's mouth with her hands in fear and trepidation. "Sun Yiyi, don't speak carelessly. She's the secondary wife. How can a woman with my status be qualified!"
Sun Yiyi's mother pulled off his hand and rolled her eyes. "You're so dumb, but if that's gone, then the position of the concubine will be vacated. Although status is very important, but you're the biological mother of the eldest son of the prince, so even for the sake of your child, the prince will still have to give you a noble title, right?"
Qi Qi looked at Sun Yiyi's mom for a while before finally understanding what was going on. She gently nodded, then bit her lips and raised her head to look at Sun Yiyi. "Sun Yiyi's mom, is this method possible?"
"Of course, as long as you wholeheartedly serve Your Highness, you can push out those maidservants at the most crucial moments. As for other matters, my wangfei and I will help you." When she saw that Qi Qi had agreed to it, Sun Yiyi's mother quickly promised.
"Princess? Will the wangfei help me with this? "
When Qi Qi asked this question, Sun Yiyi's mother suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing in a moment of anxiousness. Everyone was well aware of this kind of thing, and if she said it, it would become a weakness in the future. If the prince didn't feel that she shouldn't have any ulterior motives, then why would the wangfei need to use this little girl to send a beauty away?
Sun Yiyi's mother laughed dryly and changed the topic: "Do you understand the method I'm talking about? If you really want to fight for more for your children, you'd better listen to my suggestion."
After a long silence, Qi Qi nodded and said, "I understand. Thank you, Sun Yiyi."
After returning from Princess Hua-Yang's place, Qi Qi returned to her own room and told her that she needed to rest. She then shut the door and went to bed, covered her head, and fell asleep.
She had already completed her main task for the day. In this month, she only needed to follow the path that the wangfei had arranged for her to go. The real show would only take place after the Xu family had broken their bans on the foot.
A month's time passed by very quickly. In this period of time, every morning, he would go to the wangfei's place to play with the master and servant of the Jiang family, causing the women in the backyard to be jealous. At night, when Prince Chen came to visit, he would send the several beautiful maidservants that the wangfei had arranged to serve him.
After coming over, he also had a young and pretty maid wait on him. Occasionally, he would spend a night or two with the princess, and his days were very comfortable and relaxing. He had no idea how much of an impact it would have on him to stay in the backyard for a long time.
First, those concubines stared at Qi Seven with increasingly resentful eyes, then the servants of the mansion began to serve the masters of the courtyard more and more carefully, becoming more and more perfunctory towards the concubines of the other courtyards, and even gradually began to look down on the West Branch after not having heard anything from the Prince for a long time.
It was just that the Xu family had been too arrogant in the Prince's Mansion. He also knew that the Xu family's heart had never been in the Prince's Mansion, and in order to win over the Xu family, it was necessary for them to rely on him in the future.
Only by truly putting him in their hearts would the Xu family be willing to help him deal with the Xu family. Only then would his power within the imperial court be consolidated.
"What's with this tea?" "What's that smell?" Mrs Xu threw out the teacup in her hand in disgust, the spilt tea scalding Mrs Chen, who was standing beside her.
Mrs Chen did not dare to complain. She did not even dare to wipe away the tea leaves on her body. She hurriedly walked to the front of Mrs Xu and knelt down.
"My lord, you will have to atone for your sins. This year's new tea has been used up, and the steward has said that the princess needs to save money. Every courtyard has to be filled to the limit, so... So this servant took the remaining tea from last year. "
It would have been better if Mrs Xu had not said so. Mrs Xu immediately stood up and strode out, saying angrily:
"That old woman, she took advantage of my confinement to ruin me like this. How could such a large palace lose two catties of tea leaves?"
"Mistress, Mistress, please hold your steps. The time for the restriction has not come yet, so you can't go out. If you anger the prince again, I'm afraid it will take more than one month."
Mrs Xu lowered her head and looked at Mrs Chen, who was kneeling at the side, hugging her legs with all her might. Remembering her mother's company since childhood, she finally couldn't bear to make her worry. She bit her lips and controlled her anger, "I'll listen to you.
It was just that her young miss was too arrogant and her temper was a little too direct. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been schemed against in the first place, and this perfectly fine Prime Minister's direct daughter had actually become a side room of the Prince's estate. Furthermore, the Prince was even older than the Prince.
She originally thought that with a good family background, she would definitely find a good husband, but she didn't expect that in the end, it would end like this. If it was anyone else, they would be unwilling in their hearts, but now that they had married, rather than holding back and arguing with the prince, it would be better for them to live a peaceful life.
However, if it was a man who could endure his own woman ignoring him for a long period of time, it was still impossible for ordinary men, not to mention the prince who held great authority over them. With a word of warning, the prince's current tolerance and tolerance, other than perhaps actually liking his master a little, should be mostly out of respect for the Xu Family.
