Not long after Chen Shiyi left, Grandma Guan came in and reported, "Princess, Mrs. Wang is here."
When Princess Ning heard that her mother-in-law's sister-in-law was here, she knew that she was here for this very reason.
He said calmly: "Please come in."
"yes."
Aunt Guan went outside and invited Mrs. Wang to sit in the small living room of Princess Ning's courtyard. Princess Ning tidied up and came soon.
When Mrs. Wang met Princess Ning, she did not beat around the bush and asked first, "Sicun, do you want to make peace with Prince Ning?"
Princess Ning nodded.
"He Lishu has been sent to the clan."
Mrs. Wang was silent for a while before saying, "Did Prince Ning do something he shouldn't have done again?"
Princess Ning shook her head.
Mrs. Wang asked: "Why is that?"
People around her kept asking questions over and over again, and Princess Ning felt a little tired, but this was her sister-in-law, so she cheered up and replied: "Sister-in-law, after so many years of entanglement, I have long been tired. Now that Sheng'er's position is stable, I don't want to endure it anymore." ”
Hearing this answer, Mrs. Wang expected it. When she married into the Wang family, Princess Ning had not yet married, and the sister-in-law and sister-in-law had been getting along for a long time. Mrs. Wang knew Princess Ning's temperament well.
But at this time, she couldn't let Princess Ning have her way.
After some thought, he said: "Sicun, first of all, Sheng'er's current position is stable because you are Prince Ning's concubine. If you reconcile with Prince Ning, there may not be changes in the future. Secondly, if you take it seriously Heli, Sister Ling and Sister Gui are bound to be affected by this when they are discussing marriage."
Princess Ning's expression changed.
Although she knew that most of her sister-in-law came to persuade her at this time, Princess Ning still felt uneasy. After all, she had always lived under the support and tolerance of her natal family for so many years. Now, her natal family suddenly changed. His face turned pale and she was not used to it.
Thinking about it, after all, the parents are gone and now the elder brother and sister-in-law are in charge of the house, so naturally they have to take more care of their daughter, which is human nature.
Princess Ning smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, Shu Mansion could bear the Queen's divorce back then. Why, our Wang family can't even compare to Shu Mansion?"
She had been getting along well with her sister-in-law for many years. Mrs. Wang did not want to speak too harshly, but Princess Ning insisted on it. She had to say: "Sicun, the Queen and Li were forced to reconcile. The third son of Anding Hou himself posted a notice, don't do it." The first wife wants to marry a merchant girl, insulting the Shu family first, and the Shu family comes to negotiate peace, and also intends to cause the queen to have a miscarriage, and is ruthless to the second wife. The queen is forced to divorce, so others can understand ”
"But you are different. Although King Ning made a promise not to take concubines when he asked for marriage, it is human nature for men to take concubines. After all these years, you have refused to ask King Ning to take concubines, and we all support you. , No matter what the process is, Prince Ning’s Mansion does not have a concubine at all. In this case, you still want to divorce, no matter what, let the world talk about the Wang family girl. "
What she didn't say was that because of Princess Ning's actions over the years, the Wang family girl now had a reputation of being jealous.
When Princess Ning heard this, she raised a sarcastic smile. It was clearly Prince Ning who broke the promise, but it was the girl from the Wang family who was slandered.
Mrs. Wang continued: "What's more, the queen was just the wife of the second son of the Hou family before, but you, Sicun, are the daughter-in-law of the Tian family, the younger brother of the emperor, the concubine of the emperor's direct prince, and the emperor's aunt. How can you reconcile with Li?" Child’s play!”
Princess Ning's tone was dry when she heard the words: "Sister-in-law, it's my fault for causing trouble to Sister Ling and Sister Gui."
Seeing her sister-in-law's lonely look, Mrs. Wang opened her eyes slightly and said: "Sicun, you are not only the aunt of Sister Ling and Sister Gui'er, but also the mother of Brother Sheng. Now that you are an elder, you must also serve the children. Think about it.”
Princess Ning said nothing, wondering what she was thinking.
Mrs. Wang also felt a little uncomfortable. Over the years, not only her husband, but also herself, had doted on her sister-in-law and never said such cold words.
Mrs. Wang thought, stood up and sat next to Princess Ning, and held Princess Ning's hand.
Princess Ning gently pulled out.
Mrs. Wang was a little embarrassed, but she still said sincerely: "Sicun, I know that when my father-in-law and mother-in-law were alive, they never asked you for anything, but I wish you a smooth and happy life. But in this world, there is no absolute smoothness. Choose the best outcome based on the balance.”
"If you think about it carefully, should you reconcile with Prince Ning now, causing uproar in the city and panic among the younger generation, or should you just pretend that Prince Ning doesn't exist and have divorced yourself, live your own life, and make your future life even more complicated? well."
......
On the other side, Chen Shiyi returned to his courtyard. Prince Ning had not gone out yet. When he saw Chen Shiyi coming back, while adjusting his official uniform, he asked casually: "What did you talk about with your mother and concubine?"
Chen Shiyi walked over, took the clothes from Ning Shizi's hand, and arranged them for Ning Shizi, while saying: "Ask the mother and concubine if they can reconcile. If they do, the mother and concubine will not live in the mansion, and the prince will not be in the mansion. At that time, I didn’t even have anyone to talk to. If we have children in the future, we won’t be able to live in the same state as our mother and concubine.”
As she said that, Chen Shiyi couldn't help but touch her lower abdomen. Her menstruation was a few days late, and she didn't know if it was coming.
Prince Ning smiled and said, "Follow your mother and concubine. Even if she is not in the house, I can always visit her. If you miss her, you can leave the house to see her at any time."
Chen Shiyi said: "When my mother and concubine are not in the house, I always feel uneasy. Having an elder by my side gives me peace of mind."
Prince Ning smiled and said, "You get along well with your mother and concubine."
Chen Shiyi secretly sighed. They did get along well at first. She respects and is filial to the princess, who treats her very well. However, after what happened today, she is afraid that her mother-in-law will have objections to her.
She shouldn't have said these words as a daughter-in-law, but on the one hand, she was worried about the situation she and the prince would be in in the future. On the other hand, she got along well with her mother-in-law, and she really thought about the princess.
The second day.
The two girls from the Wang family came to visit Princess Ning again.
Princess Ning frowned irritably after hearing Nanny Guan's reply.
Normally, she would be extremely happy to have her two nieces come to see her, but now...
Aunt Guan thought about it and said, "How about we tell you that you are not feeling well and ask the two ladies to come back another day?"
Princess Ning waved her hand: "Invite them in."
"yes!"
Aunt Guan turned around and sighed secretly, then went out and personally led the two ladies of the Wang family into the inner room.
Princess Ning saw her two nieces and raised a smile: "Sister Ling and Sister Gui are here."
