Abandoning concubines and raising children to seize the throne

The year is almost over, and two months have passed since the Thirteenth Prince got married.

Yin Qingxuan's belly was already bulging, and she looked like a lazy cat. Her favorite thing was to lie on the couch and bask in the sun.

At this moment, she squinted her eyes slightly, listening to the little girl Ye Haitang chattering in her ear.

"My uncle has been married for a long time, why hasn't my brother mentioned my marriage yet? Sister-in-law, Yin Buyu is your second brother, aren't you anxious?"

"Sister-in-law, please don't fall asleep. Get up and talk to me."

Yin Qingxuan felt a headache because of her noise, so she had to open her eyes.

"Your wedding with your second brother will be held after the New Year. After all, your thirteenth uncle is your elder, and it is not appropriate for you to marry him together."

Ye Haitang immediately pouted.

"What's inappropriate? I'm not marrying him."

Yin Qingxuan was so angry that she laughed.

"You can even say this. If your brother hears it, he might really send you to marry."

Ye Haitang was startled and immediately covered Yin Qingxuan's ears. The imperial edict had become a shadow in her heart. Even though she knew it was fake, she still felt scared every time she thought of it.

"No, I didn't say anything, and the Empress-in-law certainly didn't hear it."

Yin Qingxuan pulled her hand down helplessly and said in a long voice: "Yes, I just happened to be deaf, isn't that a coincidence?"

Ye Haitang immediately smiled.

"I know that the Imperial Sister-in-law loves me the most. Tomorrow is the Chinese New Year, but the Chinese New Year is the most boring. Every family is reuniting, and the Imperial Brother will definitely stay up with the Imperial Sister-in-law. I really want to go out of the palace for a walk."

How could Ye Haitang hide her little thoughts from Yin Qingxuan?

"How about...I'll take you to the Yin family to play?"

Ye Haitang's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Is it really possible?"

"Of course it's fake."

Yin Qingxuan laughed wickedly and said, "But maybe this year won't be too boring."

Ye Haitang made a sound and showed little interest.

"What's so interesting about it? It's just a palace banquet. I'm tired of it."

"If you don't like it, I'll send you to Jiangwu to try some beef and mutton. Maybe you'll have an appetite."

Ye Jingyu's voice came from outside the door. He had been out of court for a long time and had changed into casual clothes. The purple suit made him look elegant and noble.

Ye Haitang stood up quickly and shook her little hands like a rattle.

"No, no, I love to eat, especially dumplings. I will go back to the palace to prepare them. Please sit down and wait, my brother."

After saying this, Ye Haitang ran away as if escaping.

Yin Qingxuan chuckled and said angrily, "Look how scared the little girl is."

Ye Jingyu sat down on the side and sighed, "I think she is becoming more and more disobedient. She wants to leave the palace immediately. She doesn't even care about me, her brother."

It's just like an old father marrying off his daughter.

Yin Qingxuan teased, "Then let her stay in Qinghua Palace and accompany you, the emperor brother, for the rest of your life, so that you won't be sad and depressed."

Ye Jingyu immediately refused: "Forget it, I want to have peace and quiet for a few more years."

He took a soft pillow and let Yin Qingxuan lean on it, and then said, "Cheng Fenglou has entered the Imperial College. Chang Jijiu likes him very much. The two exams have also been completed. After the New Year, a large number of students will enter the capital. Xuan'er's hard work will finally pay off."

Yin Qingxuan suddenly perked up.

"That's great. I also want to see how much they can learn."

"Well, tomorrow is New Year's Eve. How are you going to celebrate it, Xuan'er? Is there anything I can do for you?"

Yin Qingxuan raised the corners of her lips with a sly smile.

"You don't have to serve me, just watch. Tomorrow, all the people can come to the foot of the imperial city. We will celebrate with them and have a different New Year!"
