Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

"The maid's surname is Li Jingui, and her name is just an ordinary maid cleaning Changchun Garden. Her family has no background and is just an ordinary citizen. I heard that she would come from time to time to ask Li Jingui to pay money to her family.

However, these days, Li Jingui's family did not come to harass her, and Li Jingui did not know where she got the money from, which she used for washing, dressing, skin care and beauty. "Liang Jiugong found out about the things in Changchun Garden very quickly.

Kangxi said meaningfully, "They are all people with ulterior motives. Tell me, which of my sons wants to be the jackal?"

Liang Jiugong didn't dare to answer, and Kangxi didn't want to hear the answer.

Kangxi raised his hand. The hand that never shook even when he pulled the bow to its full length in the past, now began to tremble just by raising it.

Kangxi asked the imperial physician to do his best to treat him, but he could only reduce the frequency of the tremors. The imperial physician even said something heartbreaking, "The emperor may have had a stroke due to the adverse qi and blood flow in the past few years."

After the imperial physician said this, everyone was prepared to have their heads dropped, but Kangxi just calmly asked him to prescribe a prescription, as if these words had no effect on him at all.

After the imperial physician left, Kangxi sat in silence for several hours to accept the fact that he was getting old.

The only person who knew that Kangxi might have a stroke was Liang Jiugong, the imperial physician who diagnosed and prescribed medicine for Kangxi and served him personally.

As someone who had accompanied Kangxi for many years, Liang Jiugong felt that Kangxi had become even more terrifying. In the past, Kangxi would get furious about certain things behind people's backs, but now he was equally calm in front of and behind people.

If Kangxi could take life and death lightly, Liang Jiugong would eat the porcelain bottle beside him. Anyway, Liang Jiugong now looked at the princes fighting for power and profit, and just felt that he could hide as far away as possible to avoid being splashed with blood.

Why did our eunuch Liang bring up the matter of Kangxi seeing the imperial physician? Because Kangxi's current state of speaking is almost exactly the same as when he asked the imperial physician to prescribe medicine.

Kangxi had a guess about the mastermind behind this. "Go check the relationship between that little eunuch and the palace maid and our Eighth Wise Prince. And monitor the movements in the Defei Palace and the Fourth Prince's Mansion."

It is not surprising that the Eighth Prince is the mastermind behind this. Liang Jiugong is targeting the Fourth Prince and setting up a chain of events that are so interlocking. Only the meticulous Eighth Wise Prince could do this.

What puzzled Liang Jiugong was that Prince Yong was clearly a victim, so why was he still under surveillance? Did the Emperor suspect that Prince Yong was directing and acting in the drama himself or was he just going with the flow?

Liang Jiugong stopped thinking if he couldn't figure it out. If he could guess Kangxi's intention, he wouldn't be so nervous now. Just do whatever the emperor says. The more you think, the more mistakes you make, and the imperial court is the place where mistakes are least allowed.

After returning to the Old Summer Palace, the Fourth Prince went directly to Nian Shilan's courtyard. It was not that the Fourth Prince did not want to stay overnight, but Yixiu was not willing to serve the obviously restless Fourth Prince. So Yixiu used the excuse of finding the mastermind overnight to drive the uncomfortable Fourth Prince to Nian Shilan to relieve his anger.

Yixiu sent the anxious Fourth Prince away with a smile and rubbed her temples tiredly. She did not dare to relax at all that night, for fear of missing anything and causing the Fourth Prince to repeat the same mistake, and Sidan would be born to Li Jingui again.

Jianqiu felt distressed and wanted to go forward to give Yixiu a massage, but Yixiu waved her hand to refuse. Jianqiu and the others were also very tired tonight. "Ask the kitchen to make some calming soup, and everyone can drink it before resting." Huichun also saw a corpse and went through a thorough investigation, which was not easy either.

"Master, isn't it too hasty to bring that maid to the palace of Concubine De?"

Jianqiu was a little worried. If she thought about it carefully, she knew that the Eighth Prince was definitely behind the Fourth Prince's trap. The Fourteenth Prince was now following behind the Eighth Prince. Would Concubine De cover up for the Eighth Prince because she favored her younger son?

"Who do you think did what happened today?" Yixiu asked with a smile.

Jianqiu made the number eight.

"If you can guess it, how can the prince guess it? The last thing needed in the palace is evidence. Whoever is the beneficiary is the one who is manipulating the situation." Yixiu said lazily.

Jianqiu also rubbed his head, it was really stupid. This matter couldn't be brought to light, and the evidence was just supporting evidence, which didn't prevent the Fourth Prince from making another note of the Eighth Prince.

One thing Yixiu hadn't said yet was that the people in the palace were full of tricks, and the Fourth Prince was using this incident to test Concubine De's preference. The Fourteenth Prince was now also the Fourth Prince's rival.

The next day, the Fourth Prince got up from his bed refreshed and listened to the report from Su Peisheng, who had been interrogated all night.

"That maid's name is Li Jingui. She came to the shopping street to curry favor with the rich and powerful at the instigation of Huang Rongxuan, the personal eunuch of the Eighth Prince. The young eunuch who died at the Dragon King Temple was also dealt with by Huang Rongxuan in front of Li Jingui."

Li Jingui could not bear the torture, so Su Peisheng just whipped her a few times and she told him everything.

The Fourth Prince frowned, not believing that the Eighth Prince would set up such a crude plan.

"Empress Defei is knowledgeable. The ointment applied by Li Jingui contains aphrodisiacs. Combined with the things that the prince took in his mouth, it is guaranteed to make people lose their minds and only think about matters between men and women. Xiao Youzi's death has not been covered up. Once the emperor sends people to investigate..." The Fourth Prince has no way of escaping.

Su Peisheng continued to add, "Li Jingui also said that she took a kind of soup medicine that could make her pregnant overnight. Empress Defei also recognized that this medicine was for sacrificing the mother in exchange for a child. Even if Li Jingui did not get pregnant, this medicine was also consuming her vitality, and she would not live for more than a few years."

After hearing the whole story, the Fourth Prince nodded and said, "This is what the Eighth Prince did."

"Go and tell Fu Jin that I will leave after the court session." As an insider, Yi Xiu is a good helper for the Fourth Prince in his discussions.

After listening to Su Peisheng's account of what happened, Yixiu said with trepidation, "Yesterday was a close call."

The Fourth Prince said with emotion, "Thanks to Xiaoyi's timely arrival, otherwise I wouldn't be able to sit and talk to Xiaoyi so calmly today."

"But how should this matter be handled?" Yixiu asked.

The Fourth Prince's expression was cold, "Of course, there are grievances to be taken and revenge to be taken."

"I am not worried about the prince's ability, but how can I explain this to the Emperor?" Yixiu reminded.

The Fourth Prince just realized what he had forgotten. Because of Yixiu's interference, the Fourth Prince was not used as a punching bag by Kangxi. The old man must be holding a lot of anger, waiting to explode.

If Concubine De and the Fourth Prince could find out, there was no way Kangxi could not find out.

The Fourth Prince gloated, "I'm afraid that this time the Eighth Prince will end up losing more than he gained."

Yi Xiu shook her head. "This matter is so embarrassing, it is impossible for the emperor not to react. If the emperor wants to punish, why is there no news yet?"
