Sensing the change in the First Prince's gaze, the corners of Jiujiu's lips curled up even more. She tilted her head to look at the First Prince and chuckled, "Although you and Qing Zi have deviated from the orthodoxy, this consort is not a pedantic person. Since the two of you are in love and Qing Zi is pregnant with your flesh and blood, this consort will make the decision for the two of you. In the future, Qing Zi is yours. You must treat Qing Zi well."
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she tilted her head to look at Qing Zi and reminded her in a concerned tone, "The First Prince is not like this consort. In the future, you must not be willful, understand?"
After Jiujiu finished speaking, the corners of her lips curled up and she walked away.
After Jiujiu's arrival, the First Prince had already begun to suspect Qing Zi. Now, Jiujiu said that Qing Zi was pregnant and had made the decision for him to marry Qing Zi. This was clearly telling him that there was something wrong with Qing Zi and that Qing Zi was here to scheme against him.
After everyone left, the First Prince looked at Qing Zi, whose face was filled with joy, and his face darkened.
Jiujiu had seen him and Qing Zi together with so many guards. Even if the First Prince wanted to deny it, it was impossible. The First Prince could only swallow his grievances and bring Qing Zi back.
Qing Zi's looks and figure were average. Even her background was exceptionally lowly. It was impossible for her to be a concubine. If not for Jiujiu's request, Qing Zi would not even have the chance to be a concubine.
Because he felt that he had been schemed against by Qing Zi and Jiujiu, the First Prince ordered people to prepare a residence for Qing Zi and left with a dark expression.
Qing Zi, who was immersed in the fact that she was finally the First Prince's woman, was completely unaware of the First Prince's change. At this moment, Qing Zi still thought that she and the First Prince were lovers and had finally gotten married.
After making arrangements for Qing Zi, the First Prince left the palace to look for Xiao Lang.
The Eldest Prince and Xiao Lang were having a secret conversation in the study. When he heard that the Eldest Prince had been caught red-handed by Jiujiu and was forced to bring Qing Zi back, Xiao Lang's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Xiao Lang clenched his fists and slammed them on the table. With a muffled sound, Xiao Lang gritted his teeth and said, "We've all been set up by Hua Xiangrong."
Xiao Lang gritted his teeth and said, "I underestimated Hua Xiangrong."
Hearing Xiao Lang's self-blame, the First Prince hurriedly said, "It's not the General's fault. It's just that the bitch is too cunning. None of us thought that Qing Zi would be so loyal to Hua Xiangrong."
Thinking of how he had acted so affectionate in order to win Qing Zi's heart, the Eldest Prince wished he could strangle his past self.
Hearing that the Eldest Prince had put the blame on Jiujiu, Xiao Lang shook his head and said, "It's my fault. I'm at my lowest."
Xiao Lang looked at the First Prince, whose face was as ugly as his. After taking a deep breath, he said, "The Emperor has now begun to remove the vassals and weaken the power of the aristocratic families. There's not much time left for us. We must make the Emperor make you the Crown Prince before the dust settles."
The First Prince moved his lips and said, "The bitch has known about the affair between Qing Zi and me. I think she will definitely defame me in front of my father. If the General wants to force my father to make me the Crown Prince, she will definitely use my private morality as an excuse to push the Third Prince up. We have to wait until this matter is over."
Xiao Lang was anxious, but thinking that the affair between the First Prince and Qing Zi was too embarrassing, he could only nod with a sullen face.
After finally pushing Qing Zi to the First Prince, who had been using her wholeheartedly, Jiujiu's steps became lighter.
In her previous life, Qing Zi had drugged Hua Xiangrong in the name of love, causing Hua Xiangrong to be tortured. She would let her know what true love was.
Thinking that Qing Zi was really just being used by the First Prince without any sincerity, Jiujiu's lips curled into a gloating smile.
In fact, Qing Zi's treatment was similar to what Jiujiu had speculated.
The First Prince was forced to take Qing Zi back. For the First Prince, who had extremely strong self-esteem, this was a naked humiliation.
Moreover, because of Qing Zi, many of her and Xiao Lang's plans could not be carried out. The First Prince hated Qing Zi to death, so how could he treat her well?
Moreover, if it were not for the child in Qing Zi's belly, he could have avoided it. When he thought that if it were not for Qing Zi, he would probably be the Crown Prince, the First Prince hated Qing Zi and the child in her belly to death.
For him, the child in Qing Zi's belly was not his flesh and blood, but a jinx.
When the First Prince brought Qing Zi back, the senior concubine in charge treated Qing Zi with the etiquette of a concubine.
The concubine of the First Prince was naturally much better than the servant girls in Jiujiu's palace. However, such happy days did not last long. After feeling the First Prince's indifference to Qing Zi, the senior concubine also began to deliberately or unconsciously embezzle Qing Zi's things.
Qing Zi was not an easy person. When she found that her things were embezzled, she immediately went to the First Prince to complain. However, at this moment, the First Prince hated her to the core and did not want to see her at all. Naturally, Qing Zi ran into a wall.
Seeing that Qing Zi ran into a wall, the senior concubine, who was just in a tentative state, immediately took action against Qing Zi.
Qing Zi had been with the First Prince for less than a month, and the child in her belly was gone. What was even more terrifying than losing the child was that the First Prince had not come to see her at all in the month she had been with him.
At that time, he said that he loved her and wanted to marry her. However, at this moment, she was in his palace, but he refused to see her. Even if Qing Zi was a fool, she knew that she had been deceived.
The sad thing was that she only discovered this when she was already in the First Prince's hands.
Qing Zi was extremely regretful, but it was already too late.
Qing Zi's departure was like a drop of water in the ocean. It did not create any waves and there was no news of her.
Without Qing Zi, Jiujiu's days were still very happy. What made her even more gratified was that after the Third Prince was given a job at the age of eleven, he could attend court at the age of twelve and even received the praise of the court officials. If the Third Prince could continue to maintain his current state, the position of Crown Prince would definitely be in his bag.
There was nothing more comforting than having your enemy suffer while your heart and mind were at ease. It was the feeling of having your wish come true.
Jiujiu ate and drank in the palace every day. When the day came, she would order the servants to go out and purchase new novels. Her days were very carefree.
The days passed day by day as Jiujiu ate, drank, and played, and five years passed.
Five years was enough for the thin Third Prince to become a handsome young man. It also made Jiujiu's appearance more beautiful and enchanting.
If it was said that Jiujiu's gaze in the past could make people drunk, then the current Jiujiu could make people fall head over heels just by standing.
