departing figure with a mixture of amusement and bewilderment."Your Highness, Young Master Lu is truly devoted to you."Xiaoli smiled and said, "With such a good brother, the princess must recognize hi..."Imperial Mother, from now on, all the branches will depend on Lady Luo. Please give her some face and let her stay for the meal."

Feng Ling Xi's words caused Luo Side Consort's face to change slightly. What did she mean by "all relying on her for branches and leaves"

"My dear, this isn't me worrying about you. Don't forget, that Cheng'er is unreliable. Who knows if he'll go to Lady Luo's chambers every day and neglect you As your mother, my heart would break for you."

The Duchess's words made Luo Side Concubine's face even paler, and she hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty, this concubine would never dare to compete with her elder sister for the Emperor's favor."

"Mother, what are you saying Xue'er is also your daughter-in-law. Don't scare her."

As soon as Dugu City finished speaking, he was scolded by the Empress Dowager Shu.

Look, in just a few days, you've already turned to her.

"Mother Consort, my son has always been straightforward and honest in his words."

Dugu Cheng feigned helplessness and said, "You know this already. Xue'er just entered the house, it's natural to be concerned about her. Besides, don't you want grandchildren"

"Fine, for the sake of my grandson, I'll let her stay. But she better make sure that baby is strong and healthy."

The concubine on the left felt a pang in her heart as they pointed at her and gossiped about lineage. Every word they uttered wasn't kind, but rather focused on offspring. She couldn't stomach it.

No wonder she works so hard every night, it's all to have a child.

"Little sister, your mother is just like that, she speaks plainly. Don't mind her words. When you have children of your own, your mother will accept you as her daughter-in-law."

Feng Lingxi's soft voice soothed, but Luo Cefei gave a stiff smile, looking at Feng Lingxi and becoming even more suspicious of what the rumors were saying. Wasn't Feng Lingxi the one who couldn't tolerate Wang Ye marrying a concubine the most

Now, for the sake of their children, they even tolerate her like this.

What's even more disgusting is that the thought of spending every day in her room, doing things quietly just to have a child, makes her sick.

"Mother, where's Wan'er I want to go see her. This useless girl, once Luo Side Consort gives birth to a son, I'll let her know what happens when she defies me."

Feng Ling Xi's words caused Luo Side Concubine's face to change slightly, "Sister, do you mean that after I give birth, the children will be raised by you"

"Of course, isn't that always the case"

Shutai concubine answered for Feng Lingxi, looking at Luo Cefei's increasingly pale face, she frowned and asked, "What's wrong You don't seem pleased"

The Consort Luo hastily replied, "Of course not. To be raised by Sister is the child's honor."

Although they hadn't yet had children, they were all well-considered. Even though Luocifei harbored a hundred complaints in her heart, she didn't dare to voice them openly.

That night, Lady Luo asked her heart's desire, but received no response. After tossing and turning all night, she was exhausted and couldn't get up.

The Consort Luo felt upset. This daily pampering was all because of the child she carried in her womb. There wasn't even a shred of communication, which made her extremely unhappy.

"Your Majesty."

As 獨孤城 and 風淩兮 were drinking tea in the garden, 洛側妃 arrived with 小菊. She stood up, it was still noon. Every day after waking up, she was alone, her bedside empty. Moreover, he had never said a word to her.

The younger sister greets the elder sister.

Feng Lingxi waved friendly, "Come sit down and talk."

The Consort Luo looked at Dugu Cheng timidly, not knowing how to speak.

"Since your sister probably wants to find me, you should go busy yourself first."

Dugu City looked at Luo Side Concubine, seeing her evasive expression, and got up to leave.

Thank you, sister.

"We're all family, no need to be polite."

I can't hold it in any longer, this Lady Luo is here to find me again.

The Consort Luo glanced at Little Li standing beside her, hesitated for a moment, then voiced her confusion.

"Sister, these past month, Your Highness has been showering the younger sister with attention. It's truly undeserved and makes her feel ashamed. However, there's something she's puzzled about and would like to ask her sister."

“If you have anything to say, sister, just ask. We are sisters, there’s nothing we need to hide.”

Feng Lingxi's smile was gentle, and this gentle attitude eased Lu Sidefei's tension.

"Every night, the Lord comes to my sister's room, but he never speaks. My sister has racked her brains trying to figure out what it means."

Feng Lingxi suddenly understood and gave a dry cough. She waved to Xiao Li, signaling her to step back a bit.

"Your Highness has a hobby."

The concubine of the Luo family looked puzzled. Feng Lingxi covered her mouth with her hand and whispered, "He only likes to bury his head in work, I'm tired of it, no romance at all."

“This…”

The Consort Luo didn't even dare to think that the Fourth Princess would actually say this.

"I see."

I thought this Fourth Prince was suave and elegant, but I didn't expect him to be so dull. He doesn't say a word, just for the sake of having a child.

“When your older sister married him, it was the same way. Every day is like this, shameless and restless. She couldn't get pregnant and kept causing trouble. Luckily, she gave birth to a daughter, plus the Empress Dowager arranged the marriage. Otherwise, who knows what would have happened."

But before they all said it was the older sister who wouldn't let the king take a concubine.

Feng Lingxi looked at her, "You believe this Think about it, which woman would willingly do this every day I'd rather find him several more concubines so he wouldn't bother me so much."

The wind is really howling today, it's not a joke. This Dugu City is totally ruined by her.

"Little sister still thinks that elder sister married the prince out of true love."

"This liking also needs to be divided, in your current situation, do you like it"

"I..."

Lo Sidefei bit her lip, not daring to express her feelings.

Feng Ling sighed softly, "You don't have to say it, I already know. Doing the same thing every day, what else could it mean However, once you're married, you just have to accept it. Get used to it."

Luo Side concubine clenched her fist, "Is it always like this"

"Isn't it like this at night, too Don't you also talk to me during the day"

Feng Ling Xi's words made Luo Side Concubine's eyes well up with tears, "Sister, can you..."

"Of course not, that's just how it is to marry into the Fourth Prince's Manor. You'll get used to it. Just accept the prince's doting love with peace of mind."

Feng Ling Xi's words left Luo Ce Fei feeling so wronged, she almost wanted to cry. Didn't that mean she would only be spared if she had a child

"Speaking of which, you've been married for a month now, have any letters arrived this month"

Luo Ci Fei heard this, shook her head. Feng Ling Xi hurriedly grabbed her hand, felt her pulse, and excitedly stood up, "Congratulations, sister, you're pregnant!"

Luo Side concubine's face was pale, she touched her abdomen in disbelief, "Sister, is my younger sister really with child"

Feng Lingxi smiled and nodded, her eyes full of concern. "You must take good care of yourself. I'll tell the King later that he can't visit you tonight. With a child on the way, your belly needs to be protected."

Feng Lingxi spoke a lot, but Luo Sidefei's face didn't improve at all. Because no matter how much Feng Lingxi said, it was all about children and she wasn't considered at all, which made her feel uneasy.

"You, stop working so hard. I'll have the kitchen make you some tonic to help with your pregnancy later. Be sure to give birth to the child in your belly."

"Sister, I have a question. If we give birth to this child, will we still have to keep giving birth afterwards"

Feng Lingxi laughed and said, "Of course we should have several more. Raise them for half a year, then get pregnant again. While we're young, let's have several more children. The palace needs to be lively."ould protect the County Lord, and allow Feng Ling Xi to command her."Mother, you haven't finished eating yet, Wan'er won't leave."Wan'er timidly said, tugging at Feng Lingxi's sleeve, her little face...
