Chapter 138 The Future Crown Princess
Chapter 138 The Future Crown Princess
Li Ce had never heard anyone say such words.
He actually never understood women.
Whether it was Zhu Yan in the past, Jiang Wanyue now, or Lu Qingshuang who had passed away, Li Ce never understood any of them.
Of course, he didn't need to understand, he just needed them to listen.
In his understanding, it is common sense for women to have children. Aren't women in every family's harem vying to have more children to consolidate their status?
So when he first found out that Jiang Wanyue was taking contraceptive pills, his first reaction was that Jiang Wanyue had been lying to him.
But now after hearing her heartfelt words, Li Ce suddenly understood something.
I know that she is also afraid, she has concerns, and she feels uneasy.
Li Ce felt pity and heartache.
He stretched out his arms and hugged Jiang Wanyue.
"Wan'er..."
"As long as I'm here, you don't have to be afraid."
Jiang Wanyue raised her head and looked at him, her eyes full of affection.
"But Your Highness will get tired of me one day. I only hope that when I am old, Your Highness can occasionally remember my kindness. I will be satisfied then."
"What nonsense are you talking about? You are naturally the best in my heart, no one can compare to you."
Li Ce pinched her cheek.
Jiang Wanyue pursed her lips and smiled.
"That's not certain. When I'm seventy or eighty years old, with white hair and wrinkles on my face, will Your Highness still like me? Will he still treat me like he does now?"
"You are in your seventies or eighties, and I might not even be around anymore." Li Ce said nonchalantly, "Instead of worrying about this, you should worry more about Ye'er and Yu'er. Yu'er is really..."
Li Ce had a terrible headache.
He had some way to teach his son, but he really had no idea where to start with his daughter.
Jiang Wanyue chuckled and pulled Li Ce's hand.
"Your Highness, don't worry. Although the eldest princess is a little arrogant, she is not ignorant. I have already explained it to her clearly before. She also knows that she is wrong. She even came to eat with me during dinner!"
Li Ce was very surprised.
"That girl actually listened to you? The sun is rising from the west."
"Your Highness!"
Jiang Wanyue patted Li Ce's chest gently.
"What are you talking about! The eldest princess is your first daughter no matter what! She was spoiled by the Crown Princess in the past, but she is not a bad person by nature. As long as you talk to her nicely, she will listen."
"You! You are just too kind."
Li Ce shook his head.
Jiang Wanyue just smiled and said nothing.
Otherwise, how can you feel at ease?
Then, Li Ce lowered his head and thought for a moment, then spoke.
"In that case, Yu'er will be in your care from now on! If she does anything wrong, just beat her and punish her."
Jiang Wanyue's eyes flickered, but her smile became even gentler.
"Your Highness, what you said is that the eldest princess is of noble status, how can you punish her? You are making me sound like a vicious stepmother. Do you think that in your Highness' eyes, I am the kind of person who beats people at every turn?"
She pushed Li Ce's chest.
"Besides, I am only a concubine. At most, I can temporarily discipline the child on behalf of the future Crown Princess. If Your Highness is interested, you can find another Crown Princess! Other things aside, at least it will be good for the child."
When she said this, her eyes were full of sincerity, which made Li Ce stunned for a moment.
"Princess?"
"Yes! Your Highness can't possibly stay single forever. You are still young, and I can't always be in charge of the affairs of the harem. Even if you haven't thought about it, the ministers in the court, the emperor, and the ladies in the harem must have been choosing."
