Su Xinyi really didn't feel the struggle; a lot of things in the Eastern Palace were taken over by the Crown Prince after he returned. She was now pregnant and would not easily attend banquets or leave, and with her status, few dared to casually invite her over. It was rather relaxing and easygoing for her.
Looking at Su Xinyi's expression, Su Jingmo clicked his tongue and then asked with some concern, "Now everyone outside is talking about the imperial selection, what are your plans for the Eastern Palace? Surely you can't really refuse to take in anyone, can you? There are already some rumors circulating outside, you have to be careful."
"Rumors?" Su Xinyi heard this for the first time, "What's going on?"
"Who knows who's been talking nonsense, saying you are domineering and won't allow new people into the Eastern Palace. They also say that the Crown Prince is tightly controlled by you, implying that you're up to no good," Su Jingmo said gravely.
