Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

A few months later, the old lady was dying, but Fei Yanggu was on the battlefield and could not return. Fu Jin naturally wanted to show filial piety to the old lady by her bedside. Perhaps when a person is about to die, his words are kind.

The old lady took the initiative to bring up the matter of Aunt Jiang: "Wulinzhu, I am sorry for taking a concubine. I didn't expect Fei Yanggu to have already had feelings for Yuzhu. But being the mistress of the house is like this, you have to be virtuous and kind.

It's funny, I have long forgotten the pain of E'Shuo (Fei Yanggu's father) having a child with someone else. It may have hurt the first time, but later I became numb. So, Wulinzhu! This is the fate of us women, you have to accept it!"

Wulinzhu did not expect the old lady to bring up this matter. She put down the soup bowl in her hand, not knowing what to say, like a statue standing by the bed.

The old lady continued as if she was talking nonsense: "As a woman, you can't read "Female Training" or "Female Admonitions". Those books are like warm water that will melt us all. Don't listen to them! If you want to stop getting involved in the affairs of the backyard, you have to have a child! Having a child will keep you safe."

"Mother, are you living a peaceful life now that you have Fei Yanggu?" Wulinzhu asked softly.

The old lady fell into confusion again: "Bitch, how did you seduce E Shuo! E Shuo, look at her, relying on your favor, she actually stretched her hand to Fei Yanggu. Fei Yanggu, don't be afraid! Mother is here, with mother here, no one can take your things away!"

It seems that children can't solve such a dilemma! Wulinzhu listened to the old lady's nonsense and thought to herself, so what should this woman do to have the best of both worlds?

I think I should capture a man's heart. If I capture a man's heart, I can control him and get everything I want. I don't have to get it myself like I did with my mother. If I have a daughter, I can give it a try. Wulinzhu thought carelessly.

Fu Jin finally found a way to control Fei Yanggu. As long as her mother's family remained capable, her position in the mansion would remain stable.

In June of the fifteenth year of Kangxi's reign, the old lady finally did not wait for Fei Yanggu to come back, so the Ulanala Mansion was hung with white and entered a three-year period of mourning.

When Fei Yanggu returned, it was already the end of the 17th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign. He served under Prince An Yuedong. Prince An had a good strategy, and the battle with Wu Sangui ended with Wu Sangui's death. The victory of the army was in sight, so Fei Yanggu followed Prince An back to Beijing to be awarded honors. He was awarded the title of Minister of the Imperial Guard and Minister of State Affairs for his outstanding military exploits.

On this day, the Ulanala Mansion, which had been silent for more than two years, became restless. Fu Jin took the lead in waiting at the door. After an unknown amount of time, the sound of horse hooves was finally heard. It was Fei Yanggu who had returned from a visit to Emperor Kangxi. The decree of his promotion had long been passed back to the mansion, and he was now in high spirits.

After getting off the horse, Fu Jin came forward and looked at Fei Yanggu with concern. Soon, tears were about to fall. "Master, why have you lost so much weight? Although there are continuous good news from the front, and your letters home always report good news but not bad news, I always can't sleep at night."

In the beginning, she was concerned about Fei Yanggu, and in the end, she was about to bow and apologize, "My master is fighting outside, and I should have taken care of the affairs in the mansion, but my mother..." She finally couldn't stop her tears from flowing.

Fei Yanggu saw that Fu Jin was wearing plain clothes and looked so thin that her clothes didn't fit her. He held Fu Jin and didn't allow her to bow: "If Wu Linzhu is guilty, how can I, an unfilial son, face my mother? It's not easy for Fu Jin to manage the house without any mistakes, but fate is unpredictable and cannot be controlled by human power."

Speaking of the old lady, Fei Yanggu no longer had the excitement of meeting the emperor and receiving his merits. He showed sorrow, put on the mourning clothes handed to him by the servants, went straight into the mansion and ran to the mourning hall, where he knelt down and cried loudly: "Mother, my unfilial son is back! I have been blessed by the emperor, but I cannot be by your side to show my filial piety and wear mourning clothes for you. I am an unfilial son!"

Just like that, the Ulanala Mansion, which was originally quite lively, fell into silence again. Fei Yanggu had already reported to Emperor Kangxi that he was mourning for his mother. Liu Youyou only thought it was ridiculous, but Fei Yanggu didn't think so at all. The Fu Jin who was good at using tears was completely different from the one who had just married.

At night, when Fei Yanggu and his wife were alone, his wife said to Fei Yanggu, "Master, on the anniversary of our mother's death last year, the old lady from the Wuya family also came to pay tribute to us."

Fei Yanggu knew that Fujin couldn't have mentioned it for no reason, but although the two families were somewhat related, he didn't know which life it was! What did this mean?

Seeing Fei Yanggu puzzled, Fu Jin knew that he had been fighting in the southwest in recent years, so it was normal for him not to know about the changes in the harem, so she said directly: "Master, you don't know yet! In the fourteenth year of their family, a girl was selected to enter the palace. I heard that she was assigned to Chengqian Palace. This must be valued by the Imperial Concubine. Now she is a lady!"

Fei Yanggu didn't take it seriously at first: "There are countless concubines in the palace, and the emperor is stingy with the positions in the harem. Isn't she afraid that the child she gave birth to in Chengqian Palace will be separated from the mother and kept as the child?" Fei Yanggu was not optimistic about the concubines who came from bannermen, especially the arrogant Tong Jia family. Want to climb up? Consider surviving first!

"If that's the case, I won't tell the master. This girl was recommended into the palace by Master Tong San (also known as Longkodo, the third son and the only brother of Imperial Noble Consort Tong Jia)." Fu Jin continued to explain.

If so? Fei Yanggu stood up, his eyes sparkling: "I wonder if the young master can get the Holy Heart?"

"The young lady is now enjoying the status of a noble lady. As for the great favor? How can our emperor tolerate such a situation? I heard that although she is not as good as Master Yi, she is also often favored by the emperor. Otherwise, she would not have become pregnant so soon." Fu Jin said the news she knew.

If that's the case! Although I changed my surname to Ulanala, how could the royal family not remember my original surname Dong'e? At least during the reign of Emperor Kangxi, there was no way that a high-ranking concubine of the Dong'e clan would appear in the harem! The former dynasty and the harem are both indispensable, but now I am like a broken arm. If I can get in touch with Lady Uya, it doesn't hurt to give it a try!

Fei Yanggu was deep in thought. Seeing that he was wavering, Fu Jin added fuel to the fire: "I heard that because of the victory of the army, the emperor intends to confer great honors on the harem!"

After hearing this, Fei Yanggu made up his mind: "Now that the emperor has few children, the young lady's child is destined to be given to the imperial concubine, so no matter what, we still have to take it slow and wait for the future!"

"That's what Madam Wuya said, she just wants to work with us and ensure the safety of the young lady in the palace first!"

"If that's the case, that's fine. I'll write you a list, and you can find a way to give it to the young lady, and tell her that the people on the list are at her disposal."

As the younger brother of Empress Xiaoxian (Dong Efei), Fei Yanggu does have some manpower in the palace, but one should not put all her eggs in one basket. It is enough to use a part of it for investment. As for the future, it depends on what position she can climb.

"Okay, Uya's power is in the imperial kitchen, so it is very convenient for them to welcome and see off guests and pass on messages." Fu Jin responded with a smile.

After finishing their business, the two chatted for a while about matters at home and then fell asleep.
