Hongxin was not completely averse to seeing women cry.
Women were never completely free from tears.
Like the Crown Princess Consort, who rarely cried, and when she did occasionally cry, he felt heartache and sympathy.
Lady Su was fond of crying, but when she cried over trivial matters, Hongxin found it so absurd it was laughable, though he didn't dislike it.
Because Lady Su was very clear, pain was a reason to cry because of pain. Injustice was a reason to cry because of injustice.
Lady Bai was different, she cried purely to create trouble for herself...
She dared not use the items sent from the main courtyard and refused to eat much of the food brought from the Imperial Kitchen.
If this went on, neither she nor the child would have enough nutrition; it was a wonder the child could be healthy.
For the sake of the belly, Hongxin endured again and again...
"Crown Prince... it's not me..." Lady Bai was still crying; she genuinely felt wronged.
