The second prince's mother, Concubine De, and the third prince's mother, Concubine Liang, all talked about their sons' marriages in the emperor's ears, openly and secretly saying that the emperor could not favor one over the other, they were all his sons, the princes were all married, and seeing that the emperor's grandson was about to be born, the rest of the children had to put the marriage on the agenda.

This time, the emperor was not unhappy, and directly assigned the second prince and the third prince to marry, one concubine and two concubines, and the remaining vacant seats in the backyard were left to their two sons, anyway, there were many old people around them.

After receiving the holy decree of marriage, the second prince and the third prince were all constipated, but this candidate for a wife was far from what they expected, and it could even be said that it had nothing to do with it.

Although the wives of the two are the daughters of the Sanpin officials, it is a pity that the other party's father is not an errand in the real power department, so he can only be said to be good-looking, and he has no help to them at all.

Although the two side concubines are the second daughters of the noble family, these noble families have long been bright on the surface, and they are not as good as before on the inside, and even two families have begun to live by selling their ancestral property, what is the use of marrying such wives and concubines?

But this is the emperor's will, if you dare to put on a face, a hat that disobeys the holy will and disobeys the will will be buckled, and the two dare not bet on their father's preference for them, so they can only pinch their noses and admit it.

When the news reached the ears of the prince, he was in a better mood, as long as his father was on his side, he would be more secure in that position in the future.

Ripples happened to receive a letter and a New Year's gift from General Meng from Border Pass, as well as a bunch of supplements, after all, her daughter is pregnant, and parents naturally want to express it.

The letter is an ordinary family letter, in addition to informing Ripple that everything is fine at home, allowing her to raise the fetus with peace of mind, and opening up branches and leaves for the prince, but also instructing some matters related to raising the fetus, which shows a love for a daughter.

After reading the New Year's gift list, Ripple asked Grandma Sun to count and put it into the warehouse, and found a few suitable things to send to Fengqi Palace and the Imperial Study, which was a little bit of her daughter-in-law's heart.

Ripple was meeting a middle-aged lady who came with the convoy at this time, and the letter was a cover-up, and it was this person who really came to deliver the news.

"Mama Cai, are your parents okay?"

Ripple's belly was already bulging at this time, showing the state of a pregnant woman, she leaned on the top, smiled and asked the visitor, at this time she only had Grandma Sun by her side, and Laneige was at the door.

"General Meng and his wife are in good health, only after the young lady got married, the lady was ill for a while, but after receiving the news that the crown princess had successfully arrived in the imperial city, the lady's health was better."

Mama Cai replied respectfully.

"That's good, it's not filial piety for my daughter to marry far away, and I am relieved to know that my parents are healthy."

Ripple said as he pinched his handkerchief.

"General Meng asked the old slave to bring a message to the crown princess, as long as the princess serves the prince with peace of mind, does her duty, and does not get involved in other things."

This is the point of Mama Cai's words.

"I understand what my father means, but sometimes I can't help myself, I don't want to participate, but because I'm the crown princess, they will definitely take me with them when they fight."

Ripple said helplessly.

Then he nodded to Grandma Sun and asked her to tell her what happened after she married into the East Palace.

Mama Cai frowned when she heard this, things were really a little tricky.

"Mama also saw it, I am now pregnant, no matter whether this child is male or female, my position as the crown princess will be stable, if this child wins a male in one fell swoop, then that position can also be thought about in the future.

For me, it is better for a person with the blood of the Meng family to ascend to that position, or it is more beneficial for someone else to ascend to that position, I believe my father understands better than me in his heart. ”

Ripple's words were already disrespectful, but Mama Cai did not refute it, and Mama Sun on the side did not say anything.

"The meaning of the crown princess, the old slave has already understood, and he will definitely bring back the words of the crown princess."

"Well, you'd better leave as soon as possible after a day's rest, the second prince and the third prince are going to get married recently, I'm afraid this imperial city will be lively for a while, and it will be chaotic for a while, you'd better not fall into strife."

"Yes, the old slave understands!"

Sending away Mama Cai, Ripples began to raise the fetus with peace of mind, this time there are three in the belly, but she can't be careless, she can be sure that she will be born prematurely.

Mama Cai listened very well, rested for a day, and set out on the return journey on the third day, and she had to bring those words back.

When the prince accompanied Ripples to dine in the evening, he also specially asked about the situation of the people in Ripples' family, and Ripples waved his hand to let the people in the dining room go out, leaving Quanfu and Grandma Sun to guard the door, and then handed the family letter to the prince.

"Ripples, this is your family letter, I don't think it's appropriate."

"Your Highness is my husband, we are husband and wife, there is nothing that cannot be seen, and there is nothing important written in it."

Ripple said while drinking the ginseng soup.

The prince smiled and read the letter, and then folded the letter back before he spoke:

"Ripples, you've sent everyone away, but what do you have to say to me alone?"

Ripple nodded, and said very cautiously in the prince's ear:

"His Royal Highness the Prince, my father specially asked someone to bring me a message, saying that he is on the side of the Prince."

The prince's eyes lit up when he heard this, General Meng's words were very weighty, representing the military power and the 300,000 troops at the border pass.

"Your Highness, Ripple is your wife, we are husband and wife, both glory and loss, but when you didn't really ascend to that position, my father meant to let us keep a low profile.

Although the emperor gave us a marriage, it can be regarded as openly agreeing with my father to support you, but after all, the emperor is still in power, and he doesn't like the courtiers to stand in line at this time, don't be self-defeating at that time, but ruin the good things of His Royal Highness. ”

Ripple's words can only be said to the prince alone, so she found this right time, although General Meng meant the opposite, but she didn't say so, from now on she was going to pave the way for herself.

After hearing this, the prince nodded again and again, indicating that he understood what his father-in-law meant, and it was in his interests to do so.

"Ripple rest assured, I know what to do."

"My father also said that whether it is openly or privately, in the past two years, I will not contact my family too often, as long as I maintain the normal contact with the long-distance married daughter.

Especially the crown prince can't take the initiative to contact my father's side, don't let people take advantage of the opportunity to come up with a crime of forming a party for personal gain, then His Highness's previous efforts will be in vain. ”

Ripple added.

"Okay, I understand what my father-in-law means, listen to his old man."

After the meal, the prince was also reassured, and the next day, after the morning court, he went to the queen to ask for peace, and vaguely mentioned the matter.

The queen was very satisfied when she heard this, but also reminded the prince:

"General Meng made the decision to take sides after learning that Ripple was pregnant, I can understand this, after all, his future grandson may ascend to that supreme position, he must have to gamble."
