Pei Nianwei: ...
Even though You Xiangrui tried to appear composed, Pei Nianwei still detected a flicker of displeasure in her momentary lapse of attention. She played the part convincingly, but alas, she couldn't escape Pei Nianwei's discerning eye.
"Cousin, you are indeed magnanimous. However, I fear Aunt Fu might not be easy to deal with. You know why she was sent to the manor, yet she was able to return so soon because of her schemes and wit. Cousin, you must also plan for yourself. Think about it, Noble Consort Li forbade him from fathering children before his primary wife bore him a legitimate heir. Yet she daringly conceived. Allowing that woman to return indicates that Noble Consort Li has made a concession. It's uncertain whose womb will carry Prince Xiang's eldest son now. I'm truly worried for you, and this is a matter that deserves careful thought."
