Seeing how fierce she was, those gossipers stopped talking and didn't say anything more.

"Sister, why bother with those people? It's not worth it to get yourself sick from anger." Li Jingui smiled and acted coquettishly towards Wang Jin.

"Those people, the more nice you treat them, the more they dare to bully you. It's better to be a little fierce to save yourself all the trouble." Wang Jin said as he helped Li Jingui pack up.

Li Jingui looked at Wang Jin and nodded.

"Does your injury still hurt?"

"I took some medicine and I'm much better now. Don't worry about me. Your matter is the most important right now."

Wang Jin patted Li Jingui's hand and said, "I have asked the Empress Defei for permission. I will go to Penglai Prefecture to take care of your food and daily life. Firstly, it will be convenient for us sisters to keep each other company. Secondly, if it were someone else, I would not be at ease. I have to see that you are well with my own eyes."

"That would be great."

During the days when Concubine De was around, the nanny took care of everything personally, fearing that she would be blamed for the slightest mistake, and she was very diligent.

After dealing with Li Jingui, Defei returned to Beijing with the emperor after staying for a few days. And the vicious face of the nanny was about to be revealed.

Since then, Li Jingui and Wang Jin have been living in Penglai Prefecture.

"Your belly is getting bigger day by day, so you have to be careful."

"With my sister's care, my mother and I naturally had a very good rest." Li Jingui looked at Wang Jin mischievously.

As they were talking, Nanny suddenly kicked the door open with her men, looking ferocious and not as amiable as before. Concubine De had returned to Beijing, so she didn't have to pretend anymore.

"What are you doing!"

Seeing that the situation was not right, Wang Jin stood up and protected Li Jingui, continuing to protect her.

"Don't be afraid, sister. I'm sure she won't dare to do anything rash. If anything happens to me or the baby in my belly, she won't be able to bear the responsibility."

Li Jingui was no less impressive, staring fiercely at the aggressive nanny in front of her.

"Oh, you think you're the master so quickly. Do you think you can become a phoenix just because you have a child? Humph, I can't touch you, so I'll touch your best sister!"

As she spoke, the nanny had Wang Jin dragged out. Then she slammed the door and left, leaving Li Jingui sitting alone in the room, at a loss.

What medicine did she take wrong today? Why did she suddenly come to Penglaizhou to cause trouble? Li Jingui had to calm down and think carefully while sitting in the room.

Seeing that there was no movement outside, she quietly opened the door a crack. Nanny and Sister Wang Jin were not outside, so they didn't know what had happened.

"Sister, do you know what happened to the nanny today? Did anyone offend her?" Li Jingui pulled a little palace maid and stuffed a handful of silver into her pocket.

"Sister, I really don't dare to accept your money! If Mammy finds out, she will beat me to death!"

The silver was pushed back and forth between the little palace maid and Li Jingui.

"It's okay, I won't tell anyone. Just think of it as helping my sister. In the future, if I really enter Prince Yong's mansion, I will ask the prince for permission to take you over, and you won't have to suffer here."

After hearing this, the little palace maid's heart was shaken. The emperor only came to the Old Summer Palace a few times a year. If it was really as Li Jingui said, and she entered Prince Yong's mansion, maybe she would have the opportunity to become a noble mother like her, just like her.

"Okay, okay, my dear sister, I'll tell you. It's just that now that Concubine De has returned to Beijing, there is naturally no shortage of gossip about you in the Old Summer Palace. Everyone saw that you were pregnant, and they couldn't help but feel resentful. We are all from the same background, so why do you get this treatment? Since then, everyone has only focused on dressing up and not working. All of this was seen by the nanny, who was naturally angry. After Concubine De left, the nanny came to teach you a lesson to set an example."

The young palace maid told the whole story one by one. Not only did everyone else think so, but she herself also thought so, including the nanny. But the nanny was old after all, and had no chance. Right in front of her was the conspicuous Li Jingui, so she took out her anger on her.

"In that case, it's my fault." Li Jingui lowered his head and muttered to himself. He seemed a little distressed. After all, it was because of him that Wang Jin was taken away by the nanny. His life or death was uncertain, and he must have suffered a lot of torture.

Looking at the sad Li Jingui, the little palace maid beside her was somewhat happy. Wang Jin was gone, if she could take his place...

"Don't be sad, sister. You have to take care of the baby in your belly. Sister Wang Jin has never done anything bad. God will bless her. It's windy outside. Let me help you in."

"That's fine. Only if I take good care of myself can I have a chance to save my sister."

Wang Jin, who was taken away by the nanny, was not so lucky.

"Mammy! What on earth are you going to do?!"

Wang Jin knelt on the ground and looked at her fiercely. But Mammy was not afraid and she didn't care at all.

"Now that Consort De is gone, what can you do to me? Who can you complain to? I just can't stand the coquettish looks of you and Li Jingui. You pretend to be so pitiful all day long. Who are you showing off to?"

"Mammy, what are you talking about?" Wang Jin looked innocent.

"I don't need to listen to you. I'll just do the rough work here."

The nanny threw a pile of dirty clothes at Wang Jin's face. "After you finish washing these, there's another pile of eunuchs' clothes to wash. Hurry up, or I won't be gentle with you with the whip in my hand."

After saying that, the nanny slammed the door and left.

Prince Yong's Mansion

"The emperor has returned recently, and the prince's government affairs are not as busy as they were a few days ago. The sisters have to prepare to serve him in bed." Yixiu said with a smile on her face. This is not that the sisters have to serve him in bed, but that they are happy to have the opportunity to serve him in bed.

"Yes." Everyone replied in unison.

"Come to think of it, I haven't seen the prince for a long time." Li Wanting said with a smile, seeming a little infatuated.

"Hey, sister, I remember that the prince rewarded you with a lot of pink clothes. Go ahead and put them on. Isn't he the prince's favorite?" Nian Shilan smiled and took another sip of tea.

"Yes, yes, the prince likes to see me wearing pink the most." Nian Shilan's words seemed to wake up Li Wanting, but Li Wanting could not hear that Nian Shilan was mocking her. She looked at Cuiguo beside her and said, "Cuiguo, before dinner, when you go to invite the prince, tell him that I am wearing pink. Oh, no, no, no, it's better not to say it. It's better for the prince to see it with his own eyes. It would be too deliberate if you say it."

Cuiguo just bowed and nodded, without making any response. After all, even Cuiguo knew that it was inappropriate to say such words in front of Yixiu.
