Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

Just this incident is enough to make people wonder.

Jianqiu wrung out a hot handkerchief and applied it to Yixiu's face, and said worriedly, "Was Fu Jin too harsh on the prince today?" Jianqiu's words were still euphemistic. She was simply throwing the Fourth Prince's face on the ground and trampling on it.

Yixiu felt the relaxation of her facial skin and sighed comfortably, "Do you think I was too rude to the prince?"

Jianqiu took off the handkerchief and gently massaged Yixiu's head with her hands. "But the prince is a royal relative after all, and Fu Jin's behavior will inevitably make the prince unhappy."

Yi Xiu sneered, "I have acted like a virtuous person in the past, but the prince has never shown me any respect. If I continue to maintain my reputation as a virtuous person, I am afraid that Nian Shilan will be put on my head."

The Fourth Prince is a person who will never remember your kindness. He thinks it is natural for you to be tolerant for him. In the past, when Nian Shilan was not so arrogant, Yixiu was willing to maintain a superficial peace, but now Nian Shilan makes Yixiu feel short of breath and breast hyperplasia if she tolerates him.

Jianqiu also felt that what Yixiu did today was satisfying, but she was also afraid that doing so would cause Yixiu to lose the support of the Fourth Prince.

"What if the prince insisted on supporting Concubine Nian at that time?" This was Jianqiu's hidden worry. If the Fourth Prince insisted on standing on Concubine Nian's side, then what authority would Yixiu have in Prince Yong's Mansion in the future?

Yixiu closed her eyes and enjoyed Jianqiu's massage. She smiled and said, "Then you underestimate the prince's temperament. He is the prime minister and has a big heart. How could he care about my small offense?"

Jianqiu always felt that Yixiu's words were full of ulterior motives and were sarcastic. Yixiu's words were indeed as Jianqiu thought. Yixiu was saying that the Fourth Prince was tolerant, but not in the sense of complimenting him.

Yixiu patted Jianqiu's hand and said, "Stop thinking about it. You frown every day. If you don't know, you will think that Xiliyuan is a hard place to stay."

Jianqiu withdrew her hand, touched her brow, and said unhappily, "Madam has scared me again. I don't have a day in my life." If Yixiu's behavior had not been so bold, Jianqiu would not have kept talking.

Yixiu also sighed helplessly. Today's conflict was indeed caused deliberately by her, not to punish Nian Shilan, but for the Fourth Prince.

It is now the 57th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign. It won't be long before the Fourth Prince evolves into a big fat orange. If Yixiu still maintains her original gentleness and docility, her life after entering the palace will not be as miserable as her previous life, but it will not be much better.

In a nutshell, the character of the little girl who accompanied Prince Yong's wife is no longer suitable for the role of the Empress Dowager, so Yixiu needs to transform her character to better gain the right to speak with the Fourth Prince.

Today's punishment for Nian Shilan is also a test and warning to the Fourth Prince. Yixiu has been "saving money" since she was a child to invest in Jiang Chen, isn't it just to stand up straight and keep her word in the future?

This was also the question that the Fourth Prince was struggling with. He thought about it for a long time in his study, but he couldn't figure out why Yixiu was acting out of character today. He asked Su Peisheng hesitantly, "Su Peisheng, has the Master neglected the Concubine these days?"

Su Peisheng was speechless. Every day when you entered the backyard, you threw yourself into the arms of the concubine as in previous years. If it were not for the ancestral etiquette, the concubine could only sleep with the Fourth Prince on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month. I'm afraid you would never see the Fourth Prince. Do you think you have neglected him?

If he were to hear Su Peisheng's inner voice, the Fourth Prince would surely retort that the Master had sacrificed himself to win over the Nian family, and yet he could barely squeeze out two days for the Lady. Why should the Lady be angry?

But the Fourth Prince couldn't hear Su Peisheng's inner voice, so he didn't know that Su Peisheng was criticizing him. He was urging Su Peisheng to answer the question, "I always feel that Fu Jin's anger today is not directed at Shi Lan, but at me."

Su Peisheng couldn't sow discord between the couple, so he figured out the Fourth Prince's thoughts and tactfully persuaded him, "Fu Jin has always put the Prince first. She is so impatient today because she is afraid that the news that the Prince favors the Nian Concubine will spread outside and cause criticism from others."

As for this 'someone else', it automatically became 'Eighth Prince' in the Fourth Prince's ears.

The Fourth Prince looked solemn, reflecting on how he had indulged himself these days. He could not be blamed for this, but Nian Shilan had become more and more bold with him since she came back to serve him in the imperial bedchamber. The Fourth Prince was intoxicated by the beauty and was truly "happy here and not thinking of returning to his homeland".

Thinking back now, the Fourth Prince himself broke into a cold sweat, and then hurriedly ordered Su Peisheng, "Check the situation in the mansion again, and never let the traitor pass on the news."

Especially the fact that the Fourth Prince has been favoring Nian Shilan alone these days, make sure this news doesn’t leak out!

Su Peisheng replied calmly, "The Lady had already reminded me of this matter a long time ago, to keep a close eye on those who had contact with the outside world, and also arrested several people with ulterior motives." By the time the Fourth Prince reminded him, it was too late.

The Fourth Prince put down his worries and warned, "Don't let your guard down. What if there is someone who is particularly patient?"

Su Peisheng agreed, you are the leader and you have the final say.

Frightened by such a big thing, the Fourth Prince no longer had any anger towards Yixiu. He wanted to go directly to Xiliyuan, but Yixiu was really rude today. She said, "You're doing this for my own good. Let's talk about it in private. There's no need to bring it up in front of others. It's really embarrassing."

The Fourth Prince thought for a long time and said, "Today, Mrs. Lu was promoted to concubine, which is indeed a happy event. Let's go see Miao Han in the evening!"

Su Peisheng knew that this was a way for the Fourth Prince to save face, so he would not let him lose face. He patted his mouth and said, "I didn't expect this, and I even needed your instructions. I really deserve it. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

The Fourth Prince slid down Su Peisheng's ladder and said, "It's not your fault. I didn't say much today."

Naturally, this news also reached Lanyun Villa. Nian Shilan was under house arrest and could only lean against the door and stare into the distance. When he heard the news, he was naturally furious and threw the decorative fan in his hand.

"Bitch! They are all bitches! It's like a tiger in plain land is bullied by a dog. I, Nian Shilan, can't go out for only three months, but this Lu is so impatient."

Lingzhi, this fool, hurt Nian Shilan's heart with just one sentence, "Lu Shufujin is just relying on the fact that she has a daughter, otherwise why would the prince remember her!"

As soon as these words came out, Nian Shilan was hit hard. The child had become Nian Shilan's weak spot that she could not mention.

Songzhi quickly pushed Lingzhi, who couldn't talk, away and said, "Master is strong and healthy. After you recover, the prince loves you so much. There will be good news soon."

But this couldn't comfort Nian Shilan's pain. She said with tears in her eyes, "If my child were still alive..."
