Chapter 2112: Chapter 2112: A Pit of Fire?
“Ming’er, what you need to do now is to have several sons with Prince Niu, your own sons, to solidify your position in Prince Niu’s Mansion.
Only when your position in Prince Niu’s Mansion is stable can your father’s position in the royal court be secured. Do you understand?”
“Understood, of course I understand.”
The corners of Princess Consort Niu’s mouth curled into a cold smirk as she nodded to her own father.
Regarding this, she couldn’t be more clear. From the mont she heard that she was to marry into Prince Niu’s Mansion, she understood.
But even if she did understand, did that an she had to do exactly as they wished?
“But, esteed father, do you not understand that if Baiqing’s matter is not handled well, even if I have ten or twenty sons, what use would they be? Do you think they could all grow up safely?”
She couldn’t even protect one child, let alone several.
Besides, who could guarantee that Heaven would bless her with another child like Baiqing, loved by the Emperor?
“This…”
Upon hearing her words, the father of the Princess Consort’s complexion solidified.
It seed as though he was contemplating the possibility that those won in the mansion might be hostile to his daughter’s eminent position in Prince Niu’s Mansion, which led to them taking action against Baiqing.
If that were true, it would indeed be a terrifying thought.
But what of it? Surely they couldn’t just not have children for fear of them getting hurt?
“Tsk, what’s all this?”
The mother of the Princess Consort clicked her tongue disapprovingly and looked at her daughter with irritation still in her eyes.
“If one child doesn’t make it, have two. If both die, then have ten or eight; surely one would survive, right?”
Upon hearing this, the face of the Princess Consort Niu darkened.
Were these people really her biological parents? How could they say sothing so cruel?
Did they think her a sow or what, to bear ten or eight children? She couldn’t believe he could say such a thing. Indeed, birds of a feather flock together; she didn’t want another glance at her own family.
“Father, Mother, since you say so, then let Fifth Younger Sister marry into Prince Niu’s Mansion. I’m already past my pri, but Fifth Younger Sister is young and beautiful, Prince Niu would surely take a liking to her.”
More than once, she had seen that lord of her family with lustful eyes, looking at Fifth Younger Sister.
“What? How could that be!”
The mont her mother heard what she said, she jumped up from her chair, her face turning black.
“How could your Fifth Younger Sister marry into Prince Niu’s Mansion, don’t you know what kind of person Prince Niu is? All the won out there, can you even count them? If Chun’er marries into Prince Niu’s Mansion, she’ll end up a widow within a few years.
Ming’er, what are you thinking, how can you push your Fifth Younger Sister into a pit of fire?”
“A pit of fire?”
Princess Consort Niu let out a cold laugh, looking at her mother.
“Could it be that mother has forgotten, your daughter, I, am sitting right in the midst of that pit of fire!”
She reminded.
As soon as Fifth Younger Sister is ntioned, her mother gets anxious like it’s the end of the world. Don’t they realize that she, at this mont, having been married into the mansion for just a few years, has already fallen out of favor.
Moreover, from the mont she married into the mansion…
No, even before she married into the mansion, she was never favored by Prince Niu.
They said that she made a fuss because of Baiqing’s incident, but what had she fussed about? Was it wrong to want to find her missing son?
