Rong'er thought to himself: Actually, the story of the harem is a cycle, from my generation to the generation of princes, I am not sure if I should be happy or not with Yin Reng's devotion. I can clearly feel the change in Wan Ying today, will Wan Ying bring happiness to the crown prince, or will it affect his judgement? ★
Because she had been busy with Yin Zhi's wedding, Rong'er from the crown prince's palace hadn't been here for a long time, so she came to the crown prince's palace early in the morning. Coincidentally, Yin Reng wasn't in the palace when she arrived, so Crown Prince's Wife Jiajia welcomed Rong'er into her room.
In truth, Rong'er understood in his heart that the Emperor was very fond of Yin Reng. All these years, although the Emperor had been very strict with the crown prince, if Yin Reng insisted on doing things, they would have to listen to him. In truth, Rong'er thought that Yin Reng knew about this, and Rong'er came over today.
Jijia treated Rong'er gently and courteously. Rong'er knew that she should already know that the crown prince was against using her as his concubine, but her expression remained calm, making it impossible for others to see what she was truly thinking.
"Jiajia, the Crown Prince is still young. Sometimes, he might think less about things. Don't take things to heart." Rong'er couldn't help but comfort him softly.
"Since Wan Ying gave birth to four children for the crown prince, she should be more suitable to be Crown Prince's Wife than chenqie." Although she wanted to hide the bitterness in her eyes, she could not escape Rong'er's eyes.
Rong'er suddenly felt a strange feeling, yes … All of this was like a replica of history. The harem that she had experienced all those years ago seemed to have replayed itself on these children.
Crown Prince's Wife is the future empress of the Great Qing. The reason the Emperor has his eyes on you must be because he appreciates your moral character. You just need to continue holding on to it, I believe that you will do a very good job! "
Xie Rong and his mother cherish him. Jijia is just doing her job." Jijia smiled.
Rong'er nodded his head, this Jiajia is indeed worthy of being a daughter of a noble family, her manners made Rong'er feel like she was a shadow of the Empress Renxiao, "Where's Wan Ying? "Since I've come, let's go take a look at her."
"Chenqie will bring Mother Rong over." Jiajia nodded and called the palace maid over. "Go inform the prince's consort that she is here and needs to see her. Tell her to prepare."
"There's no need to pass on the information. We can just go straight over." Rong'er stood up with a smile.
"mother should wait a moment, Wan Ying's body is not feeling good recently, she should be in bed resting, let her recuperate a bit." Ziggy said softly.
"Oh, sick? Is it serious? " Rong'er asked with concern.
"It's fine. I just need to rest." Ziggy whispered back.
After reporting the return of palace maid, Jiejia led Rong'er to Wan Ying's room in the east wing. Seeing that Wan Ying's face was still drowsy, Rong'er asked in concern, "prince's consort, where are you not feeling good?"
"I …" Wanying raised her head to look at Jiejia and said in a low voice, "Chenqie will be fine."
Rong'er nodded. She could see the sparkle in Wan Ying's eyes. From her perspective, Wan Ying didn't look like she was sick. It was as if she had just woken up.
"Please take a seat mother. Men, quickly serve the tea for Mother Rong!" After Rong'er sat down, Wan Ying told the palace maid, and Rong'er lightly frowned. Normally, Jiejia was Crown Prince's Wife, but Wan Ying should have invited her to the palace to have some tea, but the two of them couldn't see Jiejia's position at all.
"Crown Prince's Wife, you sit down too!" Rong'er emphasized the word Crown Prince's Wife.
Wan Ying also quickly said, "Yes, sister, please take a seat too." Ziggy smiled faintly and sat down next to Rong'er.
Wan Ying said to Rong'er with a smile, "I didn't know that Mother Rong would come, Wan Ying is really lacking in manners."
Rong'er gently shook her head and asked, "Where are the two children?"
"Oh, Hongsheng was raised by her sister, and Hongbai was carried to bed by her wet nurse. She hasn't woken up yet." Wan-ying smiled and looked at Jiejia.
"Hongsheng … the crown prince carried her to the empress dowager's place this morning." Jiajia hurriedly replied, her eyes showing a trace of desolation.
That's right, Li Jiayi had already given birth to four children for Yin Reng. Although their two daughters had died early, their two sons were still healthy, and compared to this prince's consort, the weight of this prince's wife was much lighter.
In these past few years, Rong'er had always liked Wan Ying, perhaps because this woman who was born in a lower class than her Crown Prince's Wife was able to receive all of Yin Reng's love, which gave Rong'er some special feelings, but she finally remembered Yin Reng's wronged expression before marrying Jiejia. One of the reasons was because she was unable to receive a certain status, which made Rong'er have a good impression on her.
But the difference was that Wan Ying was still rather virtuous during the first two years, but slowly, Rong'er began to feel that something was missing from her body. It was the quality of a kind of virtue, especially in the past two years, especially when she had been cherished by the crown prince.
"Jiajia, in my opinion, it's only a matter of time before you become a bestowed Crown Prince's Wife, so you have to learn how to manage the harem now. In the future, when you become the empress, Yin Reng's concubines will all be under your care. Rong'er whispered to Jiajia in order to make Wan Ying remember his identity.
"Yes, chenqie will remember." Rong'er nodded slightly and looked at Wanying. "Wanying, the crown prince loves you. In the future, at the grand ceremony of the crown prince, the imperial harem will need you to support Jiajia as well!"
Wan Ying nodded reluctantly. "Wan Ying will remember mother's words."
She had liked Wanying a lot, but the things that Wan Ying and Jiajia had done in the past few years were just right in front of her eyes. The presence of Jiajia allowed her to vaguely see the figure of the Empress Renxiao, while Wanying made her feel more and more worried. She always thought that if one day Wan Ying lost her favour, with her current mentality, could she accept it?
Just as Rong'er was about to get up and leave, Yin Reng returned. Thus, Yin Reng invited Rong'er to his study. After all, it had been a long time since the mother and son had last spoken with each other.
The Yin Reng in front of him would always make Rong'er's heart ache a little. Although the bright crown prince's outer robes made Yin Reng look extremely mighty, he didn't know whether it was because of some internal reason or because of some unknown reason. Rong'er always felt that this child's eyes would always have an expression of "Luo Mo" in them.
"Mother Rong!" All these years, as Yin Reng grew up, and as the position of the crown prince was confirmed, the power Yin Reng displayed was not inferior to that of an emperor's. However, towards Rong'er, he had always maintained a kind and amiable attitude.
"Crown Prince, I heard that you had an argument with the Emperor again." Rong'er said with a smile.
"mother, this son sometimes only wants to be the judge for himself, but this son's everything is done by the imperial father!" Yin Reng was a little angry as she said, "This son does not wish to argue with imperial father. It's just that I was too angry at the time, so I said that I wanted to go against imperial father. This son has already admitted his fault with imperial father."
"Reng Er, you are different from the other princes. You will have to inherit your imperial father s in the future. Rong'er sighed softly.
"mother, this son understands. I will pay attention to it in the future." Yin Reng nodded as he received his instruction.
Before leaving, she looked at Yin Reng and said seriously, "mother knows that you like Wanying, but Jiejia is also your woman, her character is virtuous, do not hurt her too much."
"mother, I don't want Wan Ying to feel sad." Yin Reng said softly, "This son truly likes Wanying."
Looking at Yin Reng, Rong'er suddenly did not know what to say. Yin Reng and his imperial father were still different, she remembered the emperor used to say that he loved her, but they were all in the dark, while Yin Reng could not help but wish that he could tell the world about his love for Wan Ying.
Rong'er bitterly shook his head. Yin Reng had always thought of the relationship between a girl and a girl, but in the end, the Emperor had only thought of the River and Mountain Country. He only hoped that Yin Reng's love for a girl wouldn't affect him.
