Jiang Ning laughed, “I’m just joking. The Emperor has only promised my mother one favor, and it’s used up. Besides, my mother is someone else’s daughter-in-law, not his.”

“Do you have any good ideas?”

“If his daughter-in-law’s request is useless, what about his own wives?”

“It’s useless to ask the Empress. She will never allow the emperor’s eldest grandson to live outside the palace. Even if she believes the Princess Consort is treating the grandson badly, she will scold at most. As long as he’s in the palace, he’ll still be in her control.”

“Who said I am going to ask the Empress? The Emperor has more wives than just her.”

“Ah, you mean…” Jiang Yi understood, “She’s not easy to please; she didn’t even intervene in the matter of Prince Yu.”

“Brother, let me tell you a famous saying: there’s no woman who can’t be pleased; only methods that are not right.” Jiang Ning laughed, “In my opinion, Concubine Jin is easier to please than any other woman.”

“You always have so many ideas.” Jiang Yi laughed, “Actually, I’m a bit curious, why would the Princess Consort abuse the emperor’s eldest grandson?”

“If she’s not a sadist, then there’s only one possibility.”

“What possibility?”

“Xiaoqian’s existence hinders her.”

“How come?”

“Third brother, do you think Xiaoqian will have the chance to inherit the Imperial Throne in the future?” Jiang Ning suddenly asked.

Jiang Yi was stunned: “It’s not impossible. After all, he was designated as the emperor’s eldest grandson at a very young age.”

“Among the third generation, he is the eldest grandson, very clever, and the direct grandson of the Emperor and Empress. He will inevitably be more honorable than the Crown Prince’s son. It’s perfectly normal for the Princess Consort to dislike him.”

Jiang Yi took a breath, “Now that you mention it, it really is… We can’t leave the emperor’s eldest grandson in the East Palace. Otherwise, the Crown Prince and his wife will torture him to death.”

“Yeah, there are too many things that can harm a child these days.”

“Let me go back and discuss with father, see if there’s any way to get the emperor’s eldest grandson out of the East Palace without offending the Crown Prince.”

“That’s impossible. Father knows it as well. Our family is bound to Prince Yu. As long as Prince Yu is alive, the Crown Prince will always be wary of him and will never let him live.”

“Even so, we can’t just openly confront them.”

“I hate hypocrites like you all. You clearly hate each other to death, but on the surface, you act like close brothers.”

Jiang Yi smiled bitterly, “Indeed.”

“I’m not a hypocrite; I’m a fake gentlewoman.” Jiang Ning laughed, “The Princess Consort’s behavior must have been approved by the Crown Prince. So, it’s still the Crown Prince’s problem. Since he has offended me, I can’t let him continue to be pleased.”

“What can you do?”

“Brother, never underestimate a woman, or you’ll suffer a great loss in the future.” Jiang Ning laughed.

Jiang Yi shivered, “Women are really scary; I dare not get married.”

Jiang Ning replied, “Whether you marry or not, even if you stay single for the rest of your life, it has nothing to do with me.”

“…Is this how you treat your brother?”

“If you really cared for your sister, you would manage the restaurant well and earn more money. After all, your sister is a widow and an orphan, and there are many places to spend money.”

Jiang Yi laughed, “How come you’re a widow and an orphan? Prince Yu is still alive and well. If he heard that, he’d be pissed. Besides, Prince Yu is not poor. Even if he’s not here in Chang’an City, his many businesses can support you all comfortably..”
