In order to make the prince relax his vigilance, I always took extra care of my sister in front of him, even to the point of being meticulous.

The prince praised me highly for my tolerance, generosity and understanding.

My sister was also very happy.

She whispered to me in private.

"Sister has always felt sorry for you. Do you hate me?"

My sister held my hand, her eyes were red, and she seemed very guilty.

In fact, before the prince told me that he wanted to marry my sister as his principal wife, my father also talked to me.

Hinting to me not to compete with my sister for anything because I have no qualifications.

At that time, I still held out a glimmer of hope for the prince.

In my impression, the prince is upright and has a strong sense of justice. He also grew up in a dependent family and should be able to empathize with my situation.

But I was too naive.

The prince is more cruel than Ama.

Without any room for negotiation, he announced to me his decision to marry my sister as his principal wife.

They even asked me to organize their wedding.

These two men are birds of a feather, they only have eyes for my sister!

Why can my sister get what I want so easily?

Why is she still pretending to be pitiful and innocent?

Why should I be patient and humble?

Is it because I am a concubine's daughter?

I sneered in my heart.

But when I looked at my sister, she looked very gentle.

"You and I are sisters, why should we be so distant? The prince is welcoming you as his principal wife, I am so happy!"

When my sister heard what I said, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good! I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm afraid of making my sister sad."

"How could that be? The prince is so kind to my sister, I am happier than my sister!"

"Yes! From now on, we sisters will support each other in the palace!"

My sister held my hand tightly, her almond-shaped eyes looking so innocent.

After my sister became the principal wife, the prince came to my place only a few times.

I look forward to his coming day and night, but he never comes.

Fortunately, Honghui is with me.

With Honghui, I feel like I own half of the world.

One day, the prince came suddenly and I was flattered.

He seemed to notice my abnormality and after sitting down, he explained casually.

"Your sister told me that I shouldn't have ignored you. I thought about it and came here."

Without any euphemism, the man told me directly why he came to me.

I forced myself to smile and served him soup. I still felt very happy watching him drink the soup that I made myself.

Whether he came voluntarily or was forced by morality, it's good that he came.

I asked Honghui to go over and sit with him.

Honghui was very obedient. He walked over and sat next to the prince.

The prince picked him up, put him on his lap, and ate with him.

That night, our family of three had a very enjoyable meal.

Perhaps because of what my sister said, the prince always finds time to come to my place several times a month.

Despite this, I am not grateful to my sister at all.

On the contrary, I became more and more jealous of her.

She was jealous that the prince listened to her so much.

But this jealousy was slowly faded away because of the prince's repeated visits and Honghui's seeing his biological father laugh.

I think I should let my sister go for now.

However, the thing that worried me the most still happened.

My sister is pregnant.

When the prince heard about this, he was as happy as a child.

He held his sister and spun around.

“This is our first baby!”

I stood by the window, hiding in a dark corner, thinking of the prince's faint smile when I was pregnant, and tightened the handkerchief in my hand.

Your Majesty, you are too partial to one and unfair to the other!

I turned my gaze to my sister again, already having an idea in mind.

I will never allow anyone to have a higher status than Honghui.

Honghui is my whole world now!

After my sister became pregnant, she suffered from severe morning sickness.

As soon as he smells food, he will vomit violently.

Even the imperial physician came, but it was of no use.

The prince was furious and wanted to punish those imperial doctors.

The imperial physician knelt on the ground and kowtowed to apologize.

"Your Majesty, in this situation, the pregnant woman can only endure it. I can do nothing to help!"

I watched the prince anxiously from the sidelines with cold eyes, gloating in my heart.

No matter how skilled the imperial physician is, there are times when he is helpless when it comes to the various discomforts that occur during pregnancy.

They are men and have never experienced pregnancy, so how do they know how to treat it?

Even if the folk midwives or female doctors told them what to do, they would not accept the advice.

Just because they think those are witchcraft and cannot be trusted.

But they didn't know that those midwives and female doctors had rich experience in delivering babies and knew more about women's pregnancies; they had stored and accumulated more experience than these high-ranking imperial doctors.

I have loved reading various medical books since I was a child, so I know how to regulate the body of pregnant women.

My sister’s morning sickness is naturally no problem.

I stood up and knelt respectfully before the prince.

"Your Majesty, I know a little bit about medicine, maybe I can give it a try."

"Hey, why are you meddling in my affairs?" The prince took his anger out on me.

I felt so wronged that I almost cried.

"Your Highness, let Yixiu give it a try." My sister said to the prince while lying weakly on the bed.

The prince was still worried at first.

But after my sister's persuasion, she finally agreed to let me give it a try.

My sister looked at me with hopeful eyes and smiled weakly at me.

I smiled back at her.

After my careful care, after a few months, my sister's morning sickness symptoms were greatly alleviated, and her appetite became better and better.

The prince was very happy and praised me highly.

My sister is even more grateful to me.

Seeing them expressing their gratitude, I humbly said that this is what I should do.

But I knew in my heart that the fun had just begun.

When I thought of the scene of the prince losing his lover, I felt both excited and sad.

I began to look forward to that day.

But at this moment, God played a joke on me: Honghui fell seriously ill.

The imperial physician told me that Honghui’s illness was very serious. How come I only discovered it now?

I was shocked.

My Honghui comes to greet me every day and he is fine. How could he have been sick for such a long time?

I think the doctor is lying.

So I asked for another doctor.

The second imperial physician's statement was the same as the third imperial physician's.

I still don't believe it.

The third imperial physician came again.

This time, the imperial physician's words were even more cruel.

"Concubine, get ready, I can't do anything!"

I stood up suddenly and cursed at him.

"You quack, what nonsense are you talking about! My Honghui is fine, why are you cursing her!?"

The imperial physician knelt on the ground and kowtowed in shock.

"I just told the truth!"

"Why is there so much noise?" The prince strode in and shouted harshly.

When I saw him, I finally found my backbone and threw myself on him and sobbed.

"Your Highness, they all said that Honghui is dying!"
