Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage - Chapter 480
Chapter 480: Chapter 480: The Princess Consort is a Bit Too Arrogant
The smile on the Princess Consort of An’s face also showed some pride: “Your Majesty has a child in his old age. No matter whether it’s a prince or princess, it’s a great joy.”
“That’s why it’s exactly the right time to act.”
“But Concubine Yu’s body…”
“Listen to me.” The old Princess Consort rarely sat down with her daughter- in-law, “You can hide it now, but after three months, you won’t be able to keep it a secret. In the meantime, do what you have to do. Even if the secret is out, with the fetus inside, all the crimes will be gone.”
Princess Consort of An was still hesitant: “But, that’s the Crown Princess Consort…”
“I didn’t tell her to kill the Crown Princess Consort; just teach her a lesson and let our Jiang Fourth Child vent his anger. There’s a dragon child in her stomach. Why be afraid?”
Princess Consort of An was persuaded and began to waver.
After returning, she saw her son’s wounds swelling and his face looking like a pig. The pain caused Li Baodan to groan, making Princess Consort of An feel heartbroken, and her hatred for Jiang Ning grew even more.
She also silently made up her mind.
The next day, she went to the palace to see Concubine Yu.
Concubine Yu was still keeping her pregnancy a secret. She didn’t dare to show off and was lying in bed asleep.
Hearing that Princess Consort of An had arrived, she sat up.
“Sister, you’re here.” She said weakly, “Please forgive me for not being able to get up and welcome you due to my discomfort.”
Princess Consort of An quickly went over to her: “You rest well. How have you been lately? You’ve lost weight. This can’t go on.”
Concubine Yu frowned: “I don’t feel much different, I just can’t eat much and feel too lazy to move.”
“It’s all normal, but for the sake of the child, you have to eat something.” Princess Consort of An put the things she brought beside her, “This is the blood bird’s nest I brought, a rare tribute, even I can’t bear to eat it. It’s perfect for you to nourish your body.”
Concubine Yu was touched: “My aunt left early, and in our residence, you and Mother took care of me. Now in the palace, you’re still the best to me.”
“We’re sisters; we should support each other.”
“Yes.” Concubine Yu laughed, “How have you been, sister? Is everything okay in the Prince’s residence?”
“What can be good? Our Fourth Child just got beaten up, and he’s still lying in bed.”
“What?” Concubine Yu was shocked, “Who was so bold as to hit Baodan?”
“It’s that child’s own fault. He was sitting in a carriage outside when he encountered the Crown Princess Consort. He said something disrespectful and had his face smashed with a stone. He was in pain all night, my heart…” Princess Consort of An wiped her tears, choking on her words.
Concubine Yu said angrily: “That Crown Princess Consort is too arrogant! As a woman, it’s bad enough that she goes out and makes a scene, but she even dared to hurt someone. Does she think she can cover the sky with one hand?” “She’s the Crown Princess Consort, naturally superior to others. Besides, who dares to offend her family? We can only swallow this breath. Poor Fourth Child, his face is scarred…” Princess Consort of An sobbed.
Concubine Yu comforted, “Sister, don’t be sad. If she, the Crown Princess Consort, hadn’t offended us, we would have let it be. Since she provoked us, we’re not ones to submit meekly.”
“As his mother, I’m powerless to avenge my son.”
“I’m Baodan’s aunt, and I will avenge him!”
“But, you’re with child. Be careful not to be impulsive.” Princess Consort of An advised.
“It’s precisely because I have this child that I have my greatest authority.” Concubine Yu’s eyebrows furrowed, as she whispered a plan into her sister’s
ear.
