The next day.

Chu Xuanhan came to the Minister of Revenue's residence.

Amber informed Mo Zhaohua as soon as she got the news.

Zhenzhu sneered when she heard this, "Prince Qi rushed to see me before I even entered the mansion. She is indeed a mother who is honored by her son."

Ever since the incident at the Princess's Mansion, Zhenzhu has hated Mo Yaohua and always felt that she had bad intentions.

Amber wrinkled her nose in dissatisfaction, "That's right, the Third Miss has been so arrogant these days."

Mo Zhaohua smiled sweetly and comforted them, "Don't be angry, my two good girls. She might cry today."

"Crying?" Pearl was puzzled. "Why is she crying? Is it possible that Miss Three is not satisfied with her status as a concubine and wants to be a concubine?"

Amber immediately denied it, "It's impossible. After the marriage was granted, Miss Third was so proud that her tail was raised to the sky. How could she be dissatisfied?"

In addition to being responsible for Mo Zhaohua's inner chamber work, she also had to inquire about the news in the mansion and knew a lot about Mo Yaohua's affairs.

Mo Zhaohua did not say it clearly, but just said ambiguously: "It's not easy to be a concubine, there is a principal wife above."

She had received news yesterday that Chu Xuanhan went to the General's Mansion, so she guessed that it was Yuchi Jiuyue who took action.

In the inner room of Zhiting Pavilion, Mo Yaohua learned that Chu Xuanhan had arrived, and immediately lifted her skirt and ran out.

Jinqiu was so frightened that she almost lost her soul. She hurried to help him, "Miss, please be careful. You are pregnant now."

"Oh... I forgot again." Mo Yaohua stroked her belly, "It's all mother's fault, dear son, don't be angry."

"Yaoyao." Chu Xuanhan brought Leng Yan into Zhiting Pavilion quickly, but there was no joy of a lover on his face.

"Your Highness..." Mo Yaohua was standing in the yard, smiling, but when she saw that his face looked strange, she quickly restrained herself.

She welcomed Chu Xuanhan into the outer room, leaving only Jinqiu to serve him. "Why is your highness so unhappy? What happened?"

Chu Xuanhan frowned slightly, "Yuchi Jiyue proposed some rather excessive conditions to me yesterday, which are related to Yaoyao."

Mo Yaohua disagreed, "Your Majesty has issued an order to grant Yaoyao a marriage, do you think Miss Yuchi dares to disobey the order?"

"She dare not disobey her order, but she wants you to come in with her one day, kowtow to her, serve her tea, and acknowledge her as your mistress."

When Chu Xuanhan heard this condition yesterday, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, Yuchi Jiuyue was the legal wife.

But after returning and thinking about Mo Yaohua, he realized that this would be unfair to her, so he said that this was a rather excessive condition.

As expected, Mo Yaohua's eyes turned red as soon as she heard this, and she was about to cry, "Ms. Yuchi just can't tolerate Yaoyao!"

"Not only that, after you enter the mansion, the child in your belly, whether it is a boy or a girl, must be raised by her."

Chu Xuanhan himself could accept it. He was raised by the mistress and was the legitimate son. Emperor Wenzong won the throne for this reason.

However, Empress Dowager Yuande raised Emperor Wenzong because her legitimate son died early, and Yuchi Jiuyue only wanted to win favor.

If Mo Yaohua gave birth to the emperor's eldest grandson, she, as the emperor's biological mother, would also be able to gain honor. How could she bear to give this honor to others?

"What?" Mo Yaohua screamed, "No, this is my child, Liu Lang, don't..."

She shook her head repeatedly, and tears of grievance soon fell down. She looked so tearful that I felt pity for her.

Chu Xuanhan felt a pain in his heart, and he quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, "Yaoyao, don't cry, just listen to what I have to say first."

Mo Yaohua held back tears, "Yaoyao knew that Liu Lang would definitely say that a little impatience can ruin a big plan."

Chu Xuanhan was helpless, "I don't want to wrong you, but she is the legitimate concubine, this request is not excessive."

Not to mention the principal wife, even if it was just a concubine, it would be reasonable for the wife to want to raise a concubine's child by her side.

Unless the main wife wants to raise one, it is not the turn of the concubine. Especially in the palace, where people are suppressed by their status, this kind of thing is the most common.

Mo Yaohua understood the truth, but she just couldn't accept it, "So Liu Lang has already agreed to her?"

Chu Xuanhan sighed quietly, "Yaoyao, do you think I have any other choice besides agreeing?"

Mo Yaohua broke down and cried, "Liu Lang, this is the emperor's eldest grandson, how can she just sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor?"

Chu Xuanhan continued to wipe her tears, "If he wasn't the eldest grandson of the emperor, she might not be interested in him, right?"

Mo Yaohua held her belly with both hands and shook her head, "I don't want it, Liu Lang, Yaoyao doesn't want it..."

She shook her head so excitedly that Chu Xuanhan didn't wipe away her tears, but instead covered her face with them.

It was really inconvenient to stretch his hand across the tea table, so he simply stood up and walked to Mo Yaohua.

He held the back of her head with one hand and with the other hand took a handkerchief and wiped her face gently and delicately.

"Yaoyao, be good, think positively. As long as she doesn't have a child, will she give everything to our child?"

Mo Yaohua was forced to look up and refused with a sob, "Then I don't want it either. This is our child, wuwu..."

Chu Xuanhan pressed her head into his arms, "Yaoyao, just bear with it, just think of it as for our child, okay?"

Mo Yaohua did not answer, because she had no choice but to bury her head in his arms and cry, "Wuwu..."

Chu Xuanhan was not an idle prince. He also had official duties to attend to and could not stay here to coax her, so he left after a while.

As soon as he left, Mo Yaohua asked someone to invite Lan Ruyu over and told her about Yuchi Jiuyue's conditions.

She threw herself into Lan Ruyu's arms in agony, "Mother, my daughter has already flown to a wealthy family, why is it so difficult for her to do this?"

Lan Ruyu stroked her head gently, "Because you are a concubine, concubines will be suppressed by legitimate daughters, and concubines will also be suppressed by the main wife and concubines."

Mo Yaohua suddenly raised her head from her arms, "So Yaoyao must become the queen, and no one can suppress me from now on."

Although her eyes were filled with tears, her expression was extremely ferocious. She no longer looked fragile at all, but rather sinister.

Lan Ruyu said firmly, "Yes, the queen is the master of the harem. When you become the queen mother, you can suppress the next queen."

While the mother and daughter were plotting for the throne in the inner room, Amber had already been secretly gathering information and was sending out many benefits.

The people at Zhiting Pavilion were very wary of her, so she could only ask others, and this might require the help of several people.

After a lot of trouble, Amber finally got useful information and hurried back to Yixiayuan to report.

She walked quickly into the inner room, "Miss, the third young lady really cried today. I heard that her eyes are swollen."

Mo Zhaohua was now certain that Yuchi Jiuyue had fallen into her trap and was targeting Mo Yaohua.

"Ouch..." Zhenzhu was embroidering. When she heard the sound, the needle pricked her fingertips and a drop of blood instantly oozed out.

Mo Zhaohua was gloating, "Be careful, no matter how excited you are, you have to watch your fingers, are you pricked?"

Pearl put her finger into her mouth and sucked it, "Miss, you are too amazing. You can even guess that the third young lady will cry."

Mo Zhaohua put on an unfathomable look, "This is called excessive happiness leads to sorrow, so don't get carried away."
