"How dare he do that?"
"Ling'er occasionally stays with Tianyi at my place. The crown prince has never visited Lucky Garden. On the surface, their relationship is respectful, but their marriage has long been in name only."
"Has Ling'er ever told you what she thinks?"
"She said she only wants to raise the child. As for the future, she hasn't thought about it. She'll take it step by step."
Qiao Mai shrugged. "Silly girl. Her son is destined to be an emperor. It goes without saying. She will become the empress dowager."
If this statement is made by someone else, Jiamei would be afraid, but the words spoken by her mother-in-law are usually accurate. Qiao Mai is too powerful.
"Mother, should we go to the palace to visit Ling'er? I can prepare for it now."
"No need. Your father and I will rest for a few days first. You can send someone to the palace to inform them. Whether they come or not is up to them."
