“You’re pregnant and easy to tire; you must rest well. As for the Princess, let the servants watch over her,” Guard Shi said with concern, massaging Murong Man’s shoulders and neck.
Murong Man leaned back against him, saying softly, “Brother Shi, it’s so good to have you. However, you can’t come to see me so often in the future. If Prince Ling were to find out, I’m not afraid to die, but it would be pitiable for our child.”
Guard Shi quickly replied, “We won’t be discovered! I am very careful in my actions! The Prince values me quite a bit now, and he even specifically left me here in the Princess’s Mansion to protect you, Manman. This shows that he has no suspicion.”
“Just because he doesn’t suspect now doesn’t mean he won’t in the future.”
Murong Man maintained her gentle demeanor, but internally she thought Guard Shi was too impulsive. He even dared to barge into her room within the Princess’s Mansion. His courage would only grow, which could be a hidden danger.
She sighed and said, “Alas, Brother Shi, I always feel uneasy. As a Princess, just for offending Murong Jiu, one could end up in such a tragic state. And I’m probably also on her list to be eliminated.”
“Manman, you’re thinking too much. Why would Princess Consort Ling want to get rid of you? You two no longer have any interactions,” Guard Shi comforted her.
Murong Man frowned and said, “Brother Shi might not know, but my parents were indeed not kind to her. I saw her plight and helped her a lot, but she never appreciated it, even calling me a hypocrite. Her pride is too strong. She thinks everyone has ill intentions towards her. You’ve seen it; my mother died, and my father and my half-sister Baozhu from the same mother are living in misery. The Fifth Princess did offend her, but her punishment is too harsh for just saying some unpleasant words.”
Guard Shi hadn’t realized Princess Consort Ling could be so hateful, but he felt the Second Prince’s Mansion was safe, as long as they didn’t go out much, the enemy wouldn’t be able to reach them.
