The reason why Li Ke went to Princess Xiangcheng was mainly because Fang Yuan and Du Miaoyan were both incompatible with each other, and Princess Xiangcheng and Du Miaoyan had a close relationship.

Maybe changing the method can bring different benefits to myself. After all, I don’t have many people to support me now.

Night, Princess Xiangcheng's Consort's Mansion.

After the formal notification, Li Ke met Princess Xiangcheng.

"Third brother, do you come to me so late? Is there something important?"

Princess Xiangcheng asked slightly worriedly.

Normally, if it’s not an important matter, you won’t go looking for someone late at night.

And although the two are brothers and sisters in name, in fact their relationship is not much better.

The family ties between the royal family are relatively weak and full of complicated interest relationships.

"No, it's just that I haven't seen my eldest sister for so long and I just wanted to have a chat with her."

Li Ke shook his head and said.

The gifts brought by the guards were put aside by him.

This means that you are not polite and do not need to return the gift.

"Haha, we sister and brother haven't had a heart-to-heart talk for a long time."

Princess Xiangcheng looked away from the corner of her eyes, and then looked back.

"Is something wrong, sister?"

Li Ke also followed Princess Xiangcheng's gaze and looked over.

But there is nothing there, just a passage leading to the backyard.

"No, what do you want to talk about?"

Princess Xiangcheng shook her head, smiled and said.

Li Ke also withdrew his gaze and talked about what happened when the two were young.

Princess Xiangcheng is the eldest princess, but she is actually only three months older than Li Ke.

Neither of them are direct relatives, so they have had a relatively good relationship since childhood, and they feel like they share the same problem.

It’s just that as we grow up, the relationship between each other becomes more complicated, and it depends more on the interests of each other.

Members of the royal family, unless they are brothers and sisters, will ultimately consider each other's interests.

Princess Xiangcheng's heart gradually softened, and she showed a warm smile from time to time.

Thinking back to the moments when I was a child, it was a happy time.

At that time, everyone’s minds were not so complicated.

"Now, Li Tai is also competing with me for the throne."

"He has the support of Changsun Wuji and Gao Shilian, and his winning rate is too high, but I..."

"I once thought about launching the battle for the throne forever, but then I discovered that if I launched it, Li Tai would not let me go after he came to power."

In the end, Li Ke finally talked about what he wanted to talk about.

The battle for the throne!

His purpose tonight is to win over Fang Yuan through Princess Xiangcheng.

"Unfortunately, I am a prostitute, so I have no connections to help you."

Princess Xiangcheng sighed and said.

These words come from the heart, but they are also said casually.

Because she really has no connections, she is just a widow.

He has no power, and the emperor cannot be said to be particularly fond of him, and he cannot help even if he wants to.

"Sister, you and Mrs. Fang have a deep relationship. If you really want to help your brother, can you have a chat with her?"

Li Ke quickly followed what Princess Xiangcheng said.

But instead of calling Du Miaoyan, he directly called Mrs. Fang.

It means that Du Miaoyan represents Fang Yuan and can convince Fang Yuan through Du Miaoyan.

"This...Miaoyan has never interfered with this."

Princess Xiangcheng was stunned and said hesitantly.

She was a little surprised, but she was relieved and understood what Li Ke meant tonight.

"I know, but it's better to try than not to try."

"No matter what, I am your brother or sister."

Li Ke said emotionally.

"I..."

Princess Xiangcheng sighed and wanted to refuse.

However, at this moment, she suddenly felt morning sickness.

After chatting with Li Ke for so long tonight, she had morning sickness for the first time.

Before the morning sickness, she had forgotten that she was pregnant.

Now she suddenly suffered from morning sickness, which shocked Princess Xiangcheng, fearing that she would be discovered by Li Ke.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?"

Li Ke suddenly stood up and walked towards Princess Xiangcheng worriedly.

"Don't come over!" Princess Xiangcheng immediately stretched out her hand to stop Li Ke. Then she felt that her behavior was too much and said, "I'm fine, no need to come over."

Li Ke frowned slightly and looked at Princess Xiangcheng suspiciously.

The reaction was too violent and completely unnecessary.

"I will talk to Miaoyan later."

"It's getting late, go back quickly."

Princess Xiangcheng changed her mind.

Mainly because he wanted to find an excuse to send Li Ke away, and was worried that Li Ke would discover his secret.

"Okay, thank you, sister."

Li Ke obviously felt something was wrong.

But I couldn't tell anything was wrong.

After getting Princess Xiangcheng's consent, he left happily.

But Li Ke didn't really think Princess Xiangcheng could help him.

What is needed for this kind of thing is not just one person saying a word or two, but a relationship of interests.

His goal has been achieved tonight, and he will come again in a day or two to give some more thoughts and conditions.

Soon, Princess Xiangcheng sent Li Ke off.

Before Li Ke left, Princess Xiangcheng couldn't help but suffer from morning sickness again.

After sending Li Ke away, Princess Xiangcheng returned to the mansion worriedly and had the Prince Consort's Mansion closed.

"I didn't expect that Li Ke came to see me so late at night, and I almost got betrayed."

Princess Xiangcheng returned to the backyard and sighed.

"I'm still a little worried. It's better to go out less until your morning sickness stops."

Princess Xiangcheng, the owner of Fang Yuan Building, said.

Fang Yuan sent Princess Xiangcheng back tonight and stayed in the backyard for a while.

Originally, he wanted to leave, but who knew that Li Ke just came over, so Fang Yuan stayed for now.

Princess Xiangcheng looked in the direction of the backyard just now, towards Fang Yuan, worried that Fang Yuan would be discovered by Li Ke.

"I know."

"Did you hear what Li Ke said just now?"

Princess Xiangcheng snuggled into Fang Yuan's arms, feeling very at ease.

"I heard it. It should be Li Tai's side making some moves."

"Last time the emperor said that he would elect a prince, but it has been more than a month and he has not yet been selected."

"I guess he is also very entangled and is weighing up Li Ke or Li Tai or even a certain prince."

Fang Yuan nodded.
