They all knew that Emperor Yong Ping only had this one sister and doted on her endlessly.
Even if it was just to show that he was correct in politics, he had to show off his presence. Those who had money had to pay, and those who didn’t had to pay. All those who were famous in the harem had come to the Peaceful Life Palace.
Noble Consort Liu’s former palace had already been sealed off by the late Emperor, and nothing changed after Emperor Yong Ping ascended the throne.
Nothing had changed inside. There were only a few palace maids who were cleaning the place.
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng also knew the Emperor’s thoughts, so she did not have the idea of marrying from the palace where she grew up. Instead, she chose the side hall of the Empress Dowager. After Noble Consort Liu’s death, the Grand Empress Dowager had always treated the three siblings with care. In the future, Little Seventeen would have to be raised by the Grand Empress Dowager’s side. The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng marrying from the Peaceful Life Palace was to show everyone that Emperor Yong Ping and his sister were not ungrateful. On the other hand, it was also to acknowledge the Grand Empress Dowager’s status.
In fact, in the past year, the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng had been getting close to the Pan Family’s Young Lady for the sake of the Empress Dowager’s reputation.
Even if they sat in the same place, their lips would not match.
It wasn’t that Lady Pan’s temperament wasn’t good, but it was just that the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was too free. Ordinary people couldn’t handle such a scene. Her status was there, and she was born with an overbearing attitude. The Pan family’s young mistress was not a lively and cheerful person. She was very reserved and rigid. They had been together for more than a year, and they had always been together. The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng just could not tell that they were congenial. She always felt that she was in a different state from Xiao Baoxin. They knew what each other meant with a glance, and they did not need to use their brains to say anything.
Actually, it was not only the Pan Family’s Lil ‘Miss who was reserved. The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was also very reserved when speaking up for her, alright?
For the sake of the Empress Dowager, she had to be on good terms with the Pan family. She also did not want to scare the Pan family’s little miss.
However, he was truly tired.
Although Lady Pan Shisan and Lady Fifteen were both Di daughters, they were from a small family and did not have the confidence of a big family. They had always treated the Eldest Princess with respect. They had long heard of the Eldest Princess’s valiant history and did not dare to be disrespectful. They were really afraid of being beaten up.
They also knew that the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was trying to befriend the Pan family, and they also wanted to befriend the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng…
However, it was still the same sentence. They were not on the same path. They could not go to the same place no matter what. They were awkward everywhere. They were only passable on the surface. If they really wanted to be friends, they were really not.
In the Pan family, including Pan Shiniiniang who was now a virtuous consort in the palace, the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng and Pan Shuo’s younger sister Pan Jiuniang could still be considered to be together. After all, she was Pan Shuo’s sister, so their personalities were somewhat similar. They were both a little careless and did not know how to look at expressions. Instead, they entered the eyes of the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng.
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng had her makeup done, and she had invited all the young ladies of the Pan family who she could talk to but could not.
At the very least, the empress dowager was so happy that her face was like a flower.
On the other hand, Consort Pan Xian was three months pregnant, so she should be able to rest assured. However, he still visited the Peaceful Life Palace every day. He didn’t even care about being pampered. He held his stomach and trembled. He didn’t pay attention to what was going on outside the window and focused on nurturing the fetus.
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng had her makeup done, and Consort Pan Xian had given her many things. She really hadn’t shown up, and had sneaked into the house early in the morning. She had done what she needed to do, and she didn’t want to show it to anyone.
At that time, if it wasn’t for the fact that the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was about to get married, she wouldn’t have been able to get up early in the morning. Others couldn’t even look at it.
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was speechless, but when she thought of the deaths in the palace one after another, she decided to forget it. Safety first. She followed Consort Pan Xian back to the side hall where she lived before turning back to prepare for the morning reception.
Empress Xiao arrived at the Peaceful Life Palace after Si.
After putting makeup on the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng, she did not leave immediately. Instead, she chatted with the Pan family’s young ladies for a while before turning to Xiao Baoxin.
This was the first time Xiao Baoxin had seen Empress Xiao since she lost her father and suffered a second miscarriage.
She wore a thin layer of makeup and dressed elegantly. Her complexion was still alright, but her entire person had calmed down. She was no longer as straightforward as before, only remaining dignified and imposing.
Even though he was still smiling and talking in the past, the smile never reached her eyes.
As soon as she got close, Xiao Baoxin felt a strong sense of sadness rush towards her without even touching her skin, making her feel uncomfortable.
“Long time no see, sister-in-law.”
“That’s right. How can this person look better with a big belly than when we weren’t pregnant?”Chu Lingzi sat at the side, feeling a little indignant. She was also five months pregnant and had gained a lot of weight. Her double chin was protruding and her face was sallow.
He couldn’t bear to see Xiao Baoxin’s radiant face, but he was looking for an ally.
“I’m so angry. Do you think my appearance has been affected because I’ve been married to Silang for too long?”Chu Lingzi touched her face nervously.” They say that pregnant women can’t see ugly things, but Silang is my husband. I can’t not see him.” I always feel that I’ve been pulled down by him.”
Even the dignified and steady Empress Xiao couldn’t help but laugh.
“What are you chewing on? Don’t spout nonsense. If the Xi family heard you, they wouldn’t be angry.”
Xiao Baoxin laughed so hard that his stomach hurt.’T don’t know about that. Anyway, my husband is good-looking. I don’t know if he will be affected.” “I knew it. I don’t have anything in common with you!” Chu Lingzi was furious.”
The problem was that she could not find anyone she could talk to.
Emperor Yong Ping of the Empress was a handsome man, and Xiao Bao Shu, who the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was going to marry, was Xiao Bao Xin’s younger brother. How could his appearance be bad?
“Which family did Pan Jiuniang marry into? What does her husband look like?” Empress Xiao couldn’t help but pull out a handkerchief to cover her mouth, her voice distorted,”He married the city gate’s commandant, Hu Qi. I heard that Supervisor Pan asked the late emperor to choose him. It turned out that General Fubo was appointed. He was not good-looking…You must be rough and brave.” Chu Lingzi hesitated for a moment, but she didn’t go up to strike up a conversation.
She couldn’t open her mouth.’I heard that your husband and my husband aren’t very good-looking. Can we talk about the same thing? Or did you become ugly when you were pregnant?’ Would the child be ugly too?
Don’t look down on Empress Dowager Shoukang, it was easy for a fight to break up.
The people that the Eldest Princess of Xuan City could befriend were not people with good tempers.
“Sister-in-law is born beautiful. Of course, Sixth Mother is also beautiful… However, everyone’s reaction during pregnancy is different. I think there are some who become prettier while pregnant, and there are also some who change their faces.”Empress Xiao paused and said faintly,”
“When I was pregnant, I didn’t even dare to look at myself in the mirror. I was afraid that I would scare myself. You didn’t see it, but it was really ugly.”
