Wei Zi didn't expect her mother to be so direct, and was stunned for a moment.
Gui thought her daughter was shy and said, "There are no outsiders in the house. Tell the truth."
"No." Wei Zi knew that her mother looked informal, but was actually as meticulous as a hair, so she didn't hide it from her: "I don't want to be conscientious either."
Gui said "hmm" and said, "I don't agree either. Why should we let that pig take over our juicy cabbage?"
Wei Zi's face finally became serious, but she was once again amused by her mother's words.
Gui continued: "It's just that you don't want to give birth to the prince's child, but the prince must have an heir. According to the thought of the person just now, I think she has to give birth to the prince."
Speaking of this, Gui Shi said sternly: "Xiao Zi, now you have two choices: one is to ask Empress Jiang to arrange a person for the prince, and the other is for you to take the initiative to bring up this matter and take the initiative to stop the child.
Child, just hold the child under your knees."
"Mother." Wei Zi was moved. She knew what Gui said was right, so she immediately replied: "Of course it's the second one."
Gui Shi nodded: "Okay, mother, let me tell you the truth, I have prepared the person, you can find a suitable opportunity and send the person to the palace."
"Mother...thank you!" Wei Zi didn't know what to say anymore. No matter how smart she was, she had no experience as a housekeeper.
"Silly boy, how can you thank your mother?" Gui reached out and rubbed Wei Zi's head, sighing: "I have wronged you. You married into another family. If your husband is not good, you can still reconcile with her, but now you have no way out.
nothing."
"Mom, I have it. As long as you, father, and brother are here, the Wei family is my escape route." Wei Zi shrank into her mother's arms like she did when she was a child.
Gui Shi smiled and said, "That's right. Your father and brother are here, so we shouldn't be afraid."

As the saying goes, old age is still tougher. As Queen Jiang is the champion of palace fighting, Wei Zi, who has just entered the game, is really no match for her.
On the second day after Gui's visit, Empress Jiang told her that to take advantage of the last beauty of spring, a flower-viewing banquet was going to be held in the palace, and she and the prince were asked to prepare it.
It was said in a sparse and ordinary manner, but Wei Zi had just been reminded by her mother yesterday, and she immediately understood: this was not an ordinary flower viewing banquet, but Empress Jiang used the name of the flower viewing banquet to let the prince choose Liangdi.
After all, according to Wei Zi's understanding, Empress Jiang values bloodline the most. She can blind the prince no matter how he plays. If she is to give birth to a royal heir, Liang Di's status cannot be lowered.
Strike first and control others later, Wei Zi was a step slower.
At this time, she also discovered her biggest problem after entering the palace: except for the confidants she brought from the Wei Mansion, she had no one else to use. In other words, she could protect her own territory, but the rest of the palace could not protect her.
But her hands couldn't touch it.
This really doesn't work.
For example, right now, she is eager to get the list of ladies attending the banquet tomorrow.
But Caiwei and the others couldn't get into Jiang's harem, so they couldn't help.
Just as he was thinking of a way, he unexpectedly saw a maid sweeping the floor at the door. Wei Zi frowned slightly and stopped.
She had noticed this maid for some time. The latter was only sent to work as a rough maid in the outer courtyard after she came back from the princess's mansion.
The maid seemed to be very polite in her work, even Grandma Cao once praised her as "very diligent", but for some reason, Wei Zi always felt that she was a bit weird, as if she was just waiting for him to notice her.
