Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

"No, no, no!" Mr. Yao waved his hands anxiously: "Your Highness must not know about this."

Xu Yixing immediately became alert. Something was wrong. Why didn’t he let Lu Anyuan know?

"If you can convince me." Xu Yixing frowned and was extremely calm.

"Because I can feel that His Highness values ​​you very much. If I tell him that he can't have children within three years, he will definitely do it. But I am just worried that if he doesn't touch you for three years..."

"That won't do!" This is like marrying a useless person! "But you are very capable, why can't you develop some medicine that can make men infertile?"

"I tried, but the success rate was very low. I'm still trying."

Xu Yixing looked at Mr. Yao and didn't notice anything strange. In fact, since they thought the same thing, she was happy to accept this favor.

"Then according to what you said, I have to hide the fact that I am taking medicine from him for the next three years. What if he gets anxious or Madam Jing gets anxious to have a child? What if he asks other imperial doctors to see me and the truth is revealed?"

"I will try my best to avoid these, ma'am, please rest assured."

Xu Yixing knew that these things were probably beyond Mr. Yao's ability, and it would be useless to make things difficult for him.

"Okay then. I can do as you say. But if anything goes wrong, you and I will have to shoulder the responsibility together."

"That's nature, that's nature."

Mr. Yao left, and Yingjiu was called out by Xu Yixing again: "Give this to Yingsi and ask him to check if there is any problem. Also, if there is no problem, please replace the medicine in the one next to my bed. This is more convenient."

"Yes."

Ying Jiu naturally went to discuss with Ying Si, but Xu Yixing had to continue with his own business.

Tomorrow is the day to return to her parents' home. This matter is too unfamiliar to her. After all, at this time last year, she was almost dying.

"Siqin, what should I bring and do when I return home tomorrow?"

Siqin thought about it and it seemed that there was nothing special to prepare: "Nothing, His Highness will definitely prepare the gifts we should bring back. We will just have dinner with the master and the mistress when we go home, so there is no need to worry."

"Oh... Then go to the warehouse and take a look. If there are any good weapons, you can bring them to your brother."

Siqin smiled secretly, thinking that you have only been married for two days and you are already taking things from your parents' home. You are too hasty!

Lu Anyuan did not return to the main hall until nightfall, feeling cold. When he saw Xu Yixing, he was full of doting, kissing and hugging him like a little child.

"My aunt will also come to your house tomorrow." After finishing, Lu Anyuan lay on Xu Yixing's ear and whispered this sentence warmly, which made Xu Yixing a little embarrassed.

"Why does she have to go too when I go home? This doesn't seem to be the rule."

"I don't know, but she won't harm us anyway!"

Xu Yixing's eyes rolled, and he suddenly remembered that Madam Jing once said that she and her young lover could still meet each other now. Could it be that...

"Hey, do you know why your aunt has never married?" Xu Yixing pretended to be relaxed, turned around and moved closer to Lu Anyuan. In fact, he was extremely frightened, fearing that the answer would be the same as he thought.

"I know. Why are you interested?"

"Well... I'm just curious. Mrs. Jing told me last time that she also had someone she liked when she was young, but unfortunately she missed him."

"Hehehe, she really likes you and tells you everything." Lu Anyuan lowered his head and gently kissed Xu Yixing's forehead.

"In that case, it doesn't hurt to tell you. Last time you asked me if our marriage was confirmed from the moment the imperial decree was issued, I didn't answer, do you remember?"

"I remember you said there is nothing sure in the world."

"Yes, to tell you the truth, when my aunt was young, she loved my father."

"What?" Xu Yixing's eyes widened instantly, and of course he was relieved. I thought Madam Jing liked my dad, but it turns out it's your dad.

"Yes, my aunt was not selected in the selection, which was a pity, but there was nothing she could do. Anyway, she stayed with my mother in the capital until she saved my father in the Guantian Tower. My father was moved at that time and promised to take her into the palace and make her a concubine. Later, the Queen Mother opposed it, so it was shelved."

“Ah?” Xu Yixing felt that his mind was completely confused. This... It was no secret that Madam Jing had saved the emperor’s life, but since the emperor had promised to take her into the palace, why didn’t the empress dowager allow it?

"Are you also curious about why? Actually, it's simple. At that time, the Imperial Astronomical Bureau said that the Jingqing Nebula represented good luck and was beneficial to the emperor, but the empress dowager was very unhappy with this statement. In the harem, there was the empress dowager above and the queen below. When would it be the turn of a woman outside the palace to receive this honor?

So the Queen Mother stopped the Emperor from taking a concubine on the grounds that it was disrespectful, and my aunt knew she was powerless to change the situation, so she did not bring up the matter again and let it go. "

"What do you mean? Just let it go? But the emperor just wants to take a concubine, why is this considered disrespectful?"

Lu Anyuan leaned to one side, so that his arm could just fit into the crook of Xu Yixing's neck. "Actually, it's because my aunt looks a lot like someone the Queen Mother hated back then. Otherwise, during the election, my aunt might have been chosen to enter the palace."

Xu Yixing pursed her lips three times, but still didn't say the words "the Queen Mother is narrow-minded". Until now, she has slowly begun to understand the meaning of the four words "fate plays tricks on people".

As Lu Anyuan said, there is nothing in the world that is completely certain. Even the emperor's words are as good as gold, and his words may not be fulfilled due to external forces. It is no wonder that Lu Anyuan has been worried about their marriage.

"Then the emperor later allowed Madam Jing to open her own residence and choose her own son-in-law. Is this also a form of compensation?"

"What kind of compensation? In my opinion, it's just a restriction! If my father really wants my aunt to get married, he can just find a marriage for her. This free choice of a husband is just an empty favor, and it's just putting my aunt on the fire!"

Xu Yixing felt that he was being shallow again. Is that what he meant? It seemed that the people in the royal family were all more petty and pretentious than the others!

Seeing Xu Yixing remained silent for a long time, Lu Anyuan added, "Father did not let my aunt down in this matter, but he did compensate us. My mother was favored and gave birth to me because of my aunt's contribution to saving the emperor."

This was true. At that time, the emperor already had six sons, not counting princesses. Concubine Yi was able to stand out from the crowd of concubines and gain favor, and gave birth to Lu Anyuan. There was a lot of luck involved.
