On the other side of the Forbidden City, Li Gege sat quietly in front of the window, the sunlight shining through the veil onto her delicate face, reflecting a bit of sadness and anxiety. Ever since she learned that a new person would move into the mansion, her heart has been like the surface of a lake blown by the wind, with ripples layered.

"Princess, I heard some news." Zitan walked in softly, with a serious look on her face.

Li Gege raised her head, a trace of anxiety flashed in her eyes: "Tell me quickly, who are the people who entered the mansion?"

Zitan lowered her voice, as if she was afraid of disturbing the tranquility of the mansion: "I heard that there are two girls entering the mansion this time. One is Wu Yazhixi, the distant niece of Concubine De; the other is Miss Qingran from the Niuhulu family."

When Li Gege heard this, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes. She lowered her eyes slightly and fell into deep thought. The Niuhulu family is a big family with huge family power. Now Yinzhen has not yet had a concubine. If Qingran enters the mansion, she will definitely become her strong competitor. Although Wu Yazhixi is the distant niece of Concubine De, Concubine De's influence in the mansion cannot be underestimated. She is naturally a potential threat.

"Princess, you have to be careful." Nanny Liu walked into the room and saw Princess Li's expression. She couldn't help but say worriedly.

Li Gege sighed softly and looked up at Madam Liu: "Madam, I know. But the situation in the mansion is becoming increasingly unfavorable to us."

Madam Liu nodded, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes: "Princess, we have to prepare in advance. Why don't we find a way to make you pregnant with the Fourth Master's child, so that your position in this mansion will be secure."

When Li Gege heard this, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes. She knew that Liu Ma was right. Only by getting pregnant with Yinzhen's child could she gain a foothold in this mansion. But, she also wanted to do it. It was just that Yinzhen's attitude towards her had always been lukewarm, so she had no idea where to start.

"Mammy, I understand what you said. But, my master..." Li Gege shook her head helplessly.

Madam Liu gently patted Li Gege's hand and comforted her, "Gege, don't worry. We can plan slowly. After all, we still have plenty of time."

Li Gege nodded. She knew that Madam Liu was right. She had to calm down and make a good plan. Only in this way could she gain a foothold in this mansion and protect herself and the people around her.

So, Li Gege began to secretly investigate the background and habits of Wu Ya Zhixi and Niu Hulu Qingran, and also began to secretly regulate her body in the hope of having a child at the critical moment.

……

Since Yinzhen spent a night in Li Gege's courtyard last time, the atmosphere in the mansion seemed to have quietly changed. Although Li Gege was happy, she knew that this was only a short-lived joy. She knew that in this Forbidden City, if she wanted to keep Yinzhen's heart for a long time, temporary favor alone was far from enough.

In the next few days, Yinzhen went to Song Gege's place to visit Ergege, and stayed in Wu Gege's room for a few nights. Although Li Gege remained calm on the surface, she felt mixed emotions in her heart.

So this time, in order to get pregnant with Yinzhen's child before the new bride entered the house, Li secretly made a lot of preparations.

That evening, Li Gege specially ordered people to prepare Yinzhen's favorite dishes and even cooked them herself, so that Yinzhen could feel her sincerity.

When Yinzhen received Li's invitation and stepped into Li Gege's room, a faint fragrance came to his nose. He couldn't help but wrinkled his nose and asked, "What is this fragrance? It smells so good."

Li Gege smiled slightly, walked up to him and said softly, "Fourth Master, this is the aromatherapy I specially prepared for you. It is said to have the effect of calming the nerves and helping you sleep. Gege hopes that Fourth Master can have a good sleep every night."

Yinzhen was moved when he heard this. He looked around and saw that the room was decorated warmly and elegantly, and every detail showed Li Gege's care. He held Li Gege's hand and sat at the table, enjoying the food and appreciating Li Gege's piano skills.

After three rounds of drinking, Yinzhen seemed a little tipsy. Li Gege took the opportunity to ask, "Fourth Master, what have you been busy with these days? I always feel that you seem a little tired."

Yinzhen sighed and said, "Things in the mansion are always complicated. I want to spend more time with you, but there are always too many things holding me back."

Li Gege's heart was moved when she heard this. She gently leaned on Yinzhen's shoulder and said softly, "Fourth Master, I know you are working hard. I don't ask for anything else, but to give you a warm embrace when you are tired, so that you can feel the warmth of home."

Yinzhen was moved by Li Gege's words. He turned to look at Li Gege, with a gentle light in his eyes. He gently hugged Li Gege and said, "Li, you are always so considerate. I promise you that I will try to accompany you more often in the future."

Li Gege was very happy, she knew that her plan was half successful.
