Chapter 270 Where is the Fool?
Chapter 270 Where is the Fool?
In the Yanxi Palace, Concubine Hui leaned against the windowsill and looked at the moonlight. "Baoqing has let go of his obsession now and has returned to his previous bad temper. I don't know whether I should be happy or angry," Concubine Hui sighed. It was true that the child had a bad temper and could make people angry to death with just one word!
She also admired the prince for being able to tolerate Baoqing for so many years. She, as his mother, couldn't tolerate it!
It's just a pity for Irgen Jueluo, she was a good child, a virtuous wife and a loving mother. Looking at the moonlight, Concubine Hui knew that she had sent off many people, one after another, from those with beautiful and tender faces and bright smiles to those who died of depression and illness. Most of the women died in childbirth.
Whether it is childbirth or not taking good care of one's body, it is all related to the child, but no one regrets giving birth. They just regret not having a healthy body and regret not protecting the child well!
Concubine Hui looked at the moonlight and thought of many people, including her first child Chengqing. That child was very well behaved, and his temperament was exactly the opposite of Baoqing's. Now that she thought about it, if Chengqing was not well behaved and did not consider others, he would have shouted out when he felt uncomfortable earlier, maybe he would not...
Unconsciously, Concubine Hui looked at the first drop of moisture on the back of her hand, slightly lost in thought. Nanny Yu beside her brought a cup of warm water, "Master, would you like to drink something?"
Concubine Hui took it, took a sip, and then handed it to Nanny Yu, who had someone take it away, "Master, the eldest prince is still in the prince's residence. I heard that even the princesses have been called over."
"Princesses?" Concubine Hui wiped her eyes, her mood had calmed down. It was true that it was easy to think about the past when you get older. Concubine Hui looked back at Nanny Yu, then smiled, "Ninth Lady, this daughter-in-law chosen by Concubine Yi is really good."
"I heard about the dispute between the Fifth and Ninth Concubines, and that some people wanted to sow discord between the Fifth Prince and the Ninth Prince, but they ignored them," Nanny Yu quickly changed the subject. She saw her master's slightly red eyes and knew that she was missing Prince Chengqing again, so she thought of diverting her master's attention!
Concubine Hui shook her head and chuckled, with a hint of disdain in her eyes, "The Fifth Prince is just a little confused in handling the affairs of the harem, but he is not really a fool. Besides, the Fifth Prince himself doesn't care about the Fifth Lady, and..."
Concubine Hui had heard people say that Wu Fujin was pitiful. "Although Wu Fujin used the lives of Liu Jia and her son as pawns to establish her authority in the harem, the emperor and the empress dowager did as she wished. Although the empress dowager still had some brains, she really understood very little about the struggles between women."
Concubine Hui looked at Qiu Yi and said, "The Queen Mother shouldn't have executed the Fifth Prince's eldest son. Once he dies, the rift between the Fifth Prince and the Fifth Lady will never be eliminated. It may even make the Fifth Prince feel that it's good for the Fifth Lady to have no children. What goes around comes around!"
Concubine Hui smiled faintly, "As for the emperor," Concubine Hui looked at the night sky, "that's not to support the Fifth Concubine. The emperor is the emperor after all. The Fifth Concubine openly used him to establish her authority. The emperor's revenge is a soft knife, a soft knife that can pierce the Fifth Concubine for the rest of her life!"
He is just a concubine's son of the Fifth Prince. He is not that important in the emperor's heart. If he uses a concubine's son to retaliate, others will say that the emperor handled it well. Although the concubine's son died of illness on the surface, everyone who should know knows it!
Those who can truly understand the emperor's intentions will respect him even more and will not dare to overstep the mark in the slightest!
"The Fifth Lady thought she had won. She thought that without Liu Jia, she was the real mistress of the Fifth Prince's Mansion. Sometimes it doesn't matter who is really in power. Even so, the Fifth Lady should be living a good life now. It's a pity that she is too self-righteous and wants to treat the Ninth Lady as the elder sister-in-law in front of Concubine Yi. The Ninth Lady is not as temperless as she seems!"
It was not easy for Concubine Hui to protect Yinzhi and let him survive in the early days of the harem. She could see clearly that the Ninth Concubine was very dangerous. In just a few months, all the powerful people in the palace, including the Emperor, had developed a preference for her. Even she could not find any fault with the Ninth Concubine!
Such a person cannot be controlled by a fool!
"Ninth Concubine was able to stop Ninth Prince from following Eighth Prince just a few days after entering the palace and completely trampled Eighth Concubine under her feet. This is not something that ordinary people can do. Eighth Concubine is Guo Luoluo!" Hui Fei smiled with a hint of inexplicable, "Fifth Concubine is stupid, but Fifth Prince is not stupid. Those who try to provoke will not succeed, and may even become Fifth Prince's punching bag!"
"My master guessed correctly. I heard that those people's families all had problems. The problems were not serious, but they were in chaos," Yu Ma added, "I didn't expect that the usually gentle Fifth Prince would be so cruel and deadly."
Concubine Hui turned around and looked at her nanny as if she was a fool, "Are you stupid? Are there any fools among the princes in the palace? Even fools can't survive!"
Don’t think that as long as the mother is strong, the child will survive. Forget it!
Even if it was her own Baoqing, she would only say that he was a brat, not a fool. How could a fool lead troops to fight? How dare the emperor let him lead troops?
They all say that the Third Beile is stupid and lost his title of Prince of a County. But they don't think about how fierce the dispute between the Crown Prince and their own Baoqing was. What did the Third Beile have to do with it at that time? He just lost his title of Prince of a County, but those disputes had nothing to do with him!
There is still room for more credit. Concubine Hui noticed at the time that the emperor did not look angry at all when he saw the Third Prince. He even trusted the Third Prince more than his own Baoqing and the Crown Prince!
Is such a person stupid?
Speaking of the Fourth Prince, he is a cunning man, a replica of Uya. People say that they don’t look alike as mother and son, bah!
You are all blind. The mother and son look exactly like they were cast in the same mold!
There is also the Seventh Prince, who has a leg disease, not a brain disease. He has been relying on herself and the emperor for all these years. Before the Ninth Concubine entered the palace, she thought that the emperor trusted the Seventh Prince the most!
There is also the Eighth Prince, who is definitely a cunning man. As for the Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince, and then the Twelfth, Thirteenth, and Fourteenth Princes, which one of them is a fool?
Concubine Hui looked at her own Nanny Yu carefully and said, "I think you are a fool. You can't even pick up the thoughts and ideas that the princes dropped on the ground."
Nanny Yu nodded and said, "Master is right. My brain cannot keep up with the princes. Fortunately, Master does not despise me." Nanny Yu never thought that she was great. She thought she was lucky.
Concubine Hui smiled and said, "There are no fools in the harem of the former dynasty. A fool cannot survive in such a place." Looking out the window, a truly kind person cannot survive either.
At this moment, Wen Yao and Yinzhen were sitting together in the prince's residence. Everyone was eating happily at the table, and there was no need for servants to serve the dishes. [I just heard that Fourteenth Prince actually cried. Oh, the future general actually cried? And he cried while hugging Fourth Prince, hahahahahahahahahahaha…]
After Wen Yao finished laughing in her heart, she looked at Yinzhen and said, "Master, I heard that Fourteenth Brother cried just now?" The moment she opened her mouth, the noisy sound disappeared and there was sudden silence.
