Chapter 287 The Most Important Thing Is Having a Son
"Unless he has no ambition at all, if he has even a hint of ambition, he will take in another concubine to help him."
The eldest princess sneered: "Don't forget, no matter how well Ye Nanyan controls her husband, she is just a peasant woman with no background or family background."
Li Shuyi was stunned for a moment when she heard her say this, then she smiled and nodded: "What the eldest sister-in-law said is reasonable, but... even if Lu Huaiyang really accepts a concubine, with Ye Nanyan's means, I'm afraid the seventh brother will also dote on her."
"This method...we still need to learn it carefully."
The Princess glanced at Li Shuyi and said in a low voice, "Look at her figure and appearance. Is that something we can easily copy?"
Li Shuyi choked: "After all, a man still needs to be controlled by a woman in that aspect before he will be completely devoted to her."
"Can you?"
The eldest princess lowered her voice, "In this capital, there are many noble ladies from high-class families, good looks, and good upbringing."
"But how many people can match Seventh Brother's wife's figure? Everyone is too proud to be humble."
When the princess said this, Li Shuyi smiled and curled her lips: "Really? She is not a woman from a brothel. After all, she is from the countryside. We are not like her!"
The eldest princess nodded in agreement, but when she heard what Li Shuyi said, her eyes rolled and she began to make up her mind.
"In fact, when it comes down to it, no one else knows how a couple gets along behind closed doors."
The eldest princess said: "Relationship is real, a man's heart is with you, which is better than anything else."
Li Shuyi glanced at the eldest princess and said with a half-smile: "Why? Is the eldest princess trying to imitate me?"
The eldest princess was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Li Shuyi and said with a smile: "That's not the case. I just want to persuade you, my second sister-in-law."
"Your second son is a man who cherishes women. If you don't hurry up and someone takes advantage of you, you won't even have a place to cry when you regret it."
Li Shuyi snorted softly, looked at the eldest princess and said, "I do think what the eldest princess said, but I don't have the figure and appearance of the seventh sister-in-law, and I can't bring myself to do it."
As she spoke, Li Shuyi glanced up and down at the eldest princess and said, "The eldest princess is quite plump. While Concubine Lin is having a miscarriage, you should comfort your elder brother. Who knows, you might be the next one to get pregnant."
"If you want to win over a man, having offspring and male offspring is the safest way to go."
Li Shuyi's tone became more serious as she spoke. "The reason why Seventh Brother's wife is treated so well is not only because of her figure, but also because of the friendship she shared with Seventh Brother through thick and thin."
"Of course, the final Red Medicine thing...she has a smart and clever eldest son."
Li Shuyi lowered her voice a little, and leaned closer to her, saying, "I heard that the emperor likes this child very much and values him very much."
The eldest princess's brows furrowed, and a hint of coldness flashed across her eyes.
For a moment, he was silent.
Li Shuyi's words were harsh, but what she said was absolutely right.
*
In the carriage in front, Ye Nanyue's family of three sat together, having a great time.
Ping'an would occasionally lift the car curtain and look outside.
It was still dark outside, and the sky was gray.
The carriage was running steadily, and the sound of wheels could be heard faintly. Ye Nanyue couldn't help yawning, she was still very sleepy!
I really don’t know how those people who go to court every day survive?
I mean, do you really have to get up so early?
What's the delay if you're late?
Seeing her yawn, Lu Huaiyang said, "It will take a while to get to the palace. The carriage can only drive to the palace next to the altar."
Ye Nanyue nodded, squinting her eyes as she leaned against him, but she couldn't fall asleep. "It would be rude if I yawn during the ceremony later. I hope I won't be beheaded."
She was a little sleepy, and when she spoke she was not as rational as usual. Her voice was tender and somewhat amusing.
He actually thought about it seriously for a moment.
Then he said to Ye Nanyue, "Hold a handkerchief in your hand. If you really want to yawn, cover your mouth with the handkerchief and lower your head to yawn."
Ye Nanyue didn't expect him to answer her seriously.
She was stunned for a moment, then covered her lips with a handkerchief, feeling a little funny: "Yeah."
Lu Huaiyang patted her and said, "Rest for a while. I'll call you when we're almost there."
Ye Nanyue said "hmm" lazily, without saying anything, and squinted her eyes to rest.
On the side, Ping'an looked at his father and then at his mother. Seeing the two of them leaning against each other, his father looked at his mother with a gentle expression and couldn't help laughing.
Great.
All of this was different from what he had dreamed.
Dad and mom are very loving.
Those two bad women, they have no chance, never a chance!
The carriage had been traveling for nearly half an hour, and Ye Nanyue rested for a while in a daze.
When they were almost there, Lu Huaiyang patted her shoulder and asked softly, "Nan Yan, we're almost there."
"Um……"
Ye Nanyue responded, opened her eyes, lifted the curtain and looked out, and found that she had already entered the palace gate.
She nodded, slightly stretched her stiff neck, and looked at Lu Huaiyang with burning and expectant eyes: "Are we there yet?"
"It's almost time. Drink some tea and wake up." Lu Huaiyang said.
Ye Nanyue nodded, and Lu Huaiyang considerately picked up a cup of tea on the small table in the carriage.
After testing the temperature first and finding it just right, Lu Huaiyang fed the tea to her lips: "It's just right for drinking."
Ye Nanyue took two sips and found it was sweet osmanthus nectar, which was very delicious and also replenished her energy.
Ye Nanyue didn't dare drink too much, fearing that it would be inconvenient when she had to go to the bathroom later.
Not to mention the store, the clothes are too complicated and it is not convenient to go to the bathroom.
Thinking of going to the toilet, she felt that after the ceremony, it would be time for her elder and second brothers to install it in the palace first.
There was no decree to disclose Lu Huaiyang's identity before, and they had to avoid suspicion, so it was not convenient for them to enter the palace.
Now, naturally there is no worry.
Just as he was thinking, Ping An handed two pieces of lotus root sugar cake to Ye Nanyan: "Mom, eat something first."
Ye Nanyue knew the memorial service process, which took at least an hour.
You got up so early again, don’t wait until you’re hungry and have low blood sugar, you need to eat something.
She took a piece and gave it to Lu Huaiyang first: "Husband, have some to fill your stomach too."
Then he pointed to another plate of mung bean cakes and said to Ping An, "Ping An, have some of that. Everyone else can eat some."
The family of three each ate a few pieces of cake, washed their mouths, wiped their hands, and drank some tea, and then the carriage stopped.
Lu Huaiyang got off the carriage first, carried Ping An down, and then half-supported and half-carried Ye Nanyue as she jumped off the carriage.
The palace maids were already waiting.
Eunuch Su, who was beside the emperor, along with people from the Imperial Household Department and the Ministry of Works, as well as people around Concubine Cen were all waiting.
You Ruanjiao carried Ye Nanyue in, first kowtowed to the emperor, and then went to the royal ancestral temple to kowtow and pay homage.
In addition to the emperor and Ye Nanyue's family of three, the concubines in the palace, as well as princes and princesses over three years old, all came to watch the ceremony.
