Translator: Lonelytree
The Crown Princess said worriedly,” Your Highness, if the Imperial grandprince continues like this, what will happen to Younger Sister Yao?” When she said this, a touch of indignation appeared on her face again. She said,” I don’t know what kind of bewitching potion Princess Linglong gave
Hong ‘er. He clearly hated her very much at the beginning. However, how long has it been since we welcomed her into the residence? She’s already bewitched him, and his soul is almost gone.”
However, she paused for a moment and continued,” Although Princess Linglong is the princess of the Black Clouds Kingdom, she is beautiful and talented. However, she is only a concubine. If Hong ‘er likes her, he can just treat her as a pet. No one can tell him how to dote on her. But he actually…” To actually spoil a concubine and ignore his wife was a little too much.
The Crown Princess did not say this out loud, but her meaning was obvious.
The Crown Prince’s expression turned gloomy.
In the Longyan Dynasty, the act of spoiling a concubine and ignoring the wife was the most unacceptable thing. If the news were to be spread out, it would definitely be criticized by the civil literati and condemned by thousands of people,
In the imperial court, no matter which prince or minister, no matter how much they loved a concubine, they could never do something like abolishing their main waves. Otherwise, if the emperor investigated, he would definitely be demoted, and his salary would be reduced. This might be a small matter, but if it went too far, the future of officialdom would be ruined.
Therefore, no one dared to ruin their future because of a woman.
However, this nephew of his had already proposed to the Emperor several times to abolish the wife and support the concubine. Why hadn’t Father mentioned anything to him and even suppressed this matter?
Yuwen Yanyu felt a faint sense of threat.
From the corner of her eyes, the Crown Princess looked at the Crown Prince, whose expression was slightly dark. Her tightly pursed lips curved up a little, and it was hard to notice if one did not pay attention.
Then, her expression became serious again. She sighed softly and said,” Fortunately, when Hong ‘er mentioned this to Father, he was reprimanded a few times. After that, Hong er didn’t have such thoughts anymore. However, Hong ‘er has been going to Jing er r s room less and less. It’s been more than a month now, and he’s been going to Princess Linglongs room. How can Jing ‘er stand this?”
At this point, she paused for a moment and said with some regret,” They used to be so loving, like glue, and respectful to each other. But now, it’s like they’ve become an unhappy couple. They’re living under the same roof, but they’re angry at each other.”
In her expression, other than feeling sorry for Yuwen Xuhong and his wife’s relationship, it was more of a test for the Crown Prince.
She had been married to the Crown Prince for five years. However, in these five years, she had not gotten pregnant with a son. This made her very worried and afraid.
Fortunately, in these few years, the Crown Prince did not despise her and respected her as the Crown Princess. He also did not divorce her because she did not have any children.
Although the relationship between them was not very strong, it could be considered respectful and respectful. In the eyes of outsiders, they were very loving.
However, the fact that she did not give birth to a legitimate son had always been a thorn in her heart.
She was very worried. What if one day, the Crown Prince disregarded their relationship as husband and wife and really wanted to divorce her? What would she do then?
Therefore, she wanted to use Yuwen Xuhongs relationship as husband and wife to test the relationship between them.
Yuwen Yanyu wasn’t stupid. How could he not understand such a probing tone?
The Crown Prince held the Crown Princess’ hands and pulled her to the seat beside him. Then, he smiled and said,” Don’t worry about Hong er and Jing ‘er. I’ll mention this to my father. However, this matter is, after all, Hong ‘er r s private affairs. It’s not appropriate for me to worry too much.”
At this point, he tidied the crown prince consort’s hair and said,” Yao ‘er, you’re tired too. Go back to your room and rest!”
The Crown Prince did not give the Crown Princess a direct answer.
The marriage between him and the Crown Princess was only a type of marriage between families.
He respected the Crown Princess, but if the Crown Princess could not give birth to a legitimate eldest son, then even if he didn’t divorce her, the imperial family would still bring it up.
After all, as the future Crown Prince, he definitely couldn’t be without a legitimate son.
Hearing the Crown Prince’s words, the Crown Princess’ eyes darkened. She nodded and said,” Alright. Your Highness, this concubine will return to her room.”
“Yes!” The Crown Prince nodded.
When the Crown prince consort walked out of the room and down the corridor, her hands were tightly clenched. One could see that she was nervous and angry..
