Shock! I accidentally entered the Qing Dynasty and was spoiled by the Fourth Master
Chapter 54 defection
Recently, the power of the Fourth Prince has increased greatly. Many people who followed the Eighth Prince a few days ago have defected. They heard some rumors from somewhere and began to show goodwill to Yinzhen. Yinzhen's attitude is to not employ people if you doubt them, and to trust people if you employ them. So if these people want to surrender, he will not refuse, but he still has to be careful to guard against people with ulterior motives.
After the morning court session, the Ninth and Tenth Brothers went to the Eighth Master's residence together to discuss how to deal with the matter. The Eighth Brother seemed calm on the surface, and it was hard to tell what he was thinking. The other two did not want to speculate, so they spoke first: "Eighth Brother, the current situation in the court is definitely not favorable for us. You have to think of a way. Now that Fourth Brother has the upper hand, the road ahead will be difficult." The Ninth Brother's tone was a little anxious, and the Tenth Brother also echoed his ninth brother.
After listening to this, Yinsi walked down from his seat after a long while and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Solving the problem is not about who has the loudest voice, but depends on this." Yinsi pointed at his head and looked at the ninth and tenth brothers.
In fact, Yinsi had expected such a day to come. When the Emperor had previously arranged the marriage to the Taifu Mansion, he knew that many people would rely on the power of the Taifu Mansion to defect to the Fourth Master, and those who were wavering in the court would take this opportunity to see the current situation clearly and follow the Taifu Mansion. He had been prepared for the current situation, but how to save it all still required long-term planning.
Yinsi said a few words to the ninth and tenth brothers and asked them to go back first. The two men couldn't understand why Eighth Brother didn't react at all and kept fingering his braids.
Concubine Liang in Zhongcui Palace also knew about these things. Needless to say, she knew that it was Zhao Chonglian who came to report. Every time he reported, he was timely. He was really a good servant of his master. Concubine Liang was just a concubine in the palace. How could she understand the important affairs of the court? She had no choice but to keep Zhao Chonglian here and discuss with him what to do.
The power of the Niuhulu family is so great that the court has changed dramatically after this marriage. Those who supported her son in the past have all changed sides one after another in order to curry favor with the Fourth Master. It seems that the previous dynasty and the harem are the same. Once someone gains power, those people will drift with the wind and no one will think of the old friendship. This is the Forbidden City, this is the compromise under the imperial power. Thinking about it this way, the people here are really pitiful. They have been acting according to other people's faces all their lives, but they can't take care of themselves.
"What did you say was your niece's name last time?" Concubine Liang suddenly thought of the eldest daughter of the Niuhuru family that Zhao Chonglian mentioned last time. Although she was not a legitimate daughter, she was of the Niuhuru family after all. Maybe this child could help Yinsi in the future. Today, while Zhao was here, she would definitely have a good talk with him.
Zhao Chonglian was shocked when he heard this and immediately stood up from his chair and replied respectfully to Concubine Liang: "My niece's name is Juelan. What do you want me to do, Your Majesty?" Zhao Chonglian knew that Juelan had a chance this time, so he continued to speak in accordance with what Concubine Liang said.
Both of them knew tacitly what the other was thinking, but they just didn't say it out loud, and were testing each other step by step.
Concubine Liang's expression changed slightly and she was no longer as nervous as before. She looked at Zhao Chonglian and said, "If I want that child to help me, do you think she will be my right-hand man?"
Zhao Chonglian answered this question straightforwardly: "Of course, Juelan and I will never dare to let Your Majesty down. Please believe us."
"Okay, I will definitely not treat that child badly. I will reserve the position of Eighth Prince's wife for her. Whether she can sit on the throne depends on her luck."
Zhao Chonglian was extremely happy when he heard this. If he was not in Zhongcui Palace now, he would really want to shout a few times. Such a blessing actually fell on his niece. Anyone who heard it would come up to congratulate her. These were the words of the Eighth Prince's biological mother. Doesn't this mean that Juelan will marry into the Eighth Prince's Mansion in the near future? At that time, Deyin would be nothing. A side wife is just a concubine. If Juelan became the legitimate wife of the Eighth Prince, her status would be far superior to hers. Let's see if she dares to bully Juelan in the future.
Zhao Chonglian was so happy that he almost forgot to ask what to do. He asked Concubine Liang, and Concubine Liang answered slowly: "Bring the child to the palace first, and I will tell her about the rest. You don't need to interfere."
Zhao Chonglian did not ask any more questions, and thanked Concubine Liang before leaving. He wanted to go to the Imperial Tutor's Mansion to find her sister and tell her about this important matter, so he asked the driver to rush to the Imperial Tutor's Mansion. As soon as he arrived, he immediately sent someone to report. Zhao was also smart and knew that her brother must have something important to tell her today, so she did not dare to delay for a moment and took Zhao Chonglian in with the person who came to report.
When Aunt Zhao saw a smile on her brother's face, she began to look forward to seeing what good news might come so suddenly. The two of them walked quickly and Zhao Chonglian closed the door tightly for fear of being overheard by others. "Little sister, today Concubine Liang intends to let Juelan enter the palace to serve as an attendant. The Concubine also told me privately that she wants to help Juelan take the position of the Eighth Lady. You must seize the opportunity now."
Aunt Zhao couldn't help laughing even though she covered her mouth with her hands. This was really unexpected good news. It was really thanks to her brother's help that her Juelan had such a good opportunity. Now she had to seize it well. Juelan also had to control her temper and must not act like she did in the mansion. If something went wrong in the palace, she would not be able to be saved.
Zhao Chonglian told her not to spread the news and to wait for the order from the palace before taking any action. The more times like this, the more they should keep calm, as a small mistake could lead to a big one. They had to be careful about everything, and the top priority at the moment was to get Juelan safely to Concubine Liang.
Aunt Zhao couldn't hold back on things, so as soon as Zhao Chonglian left, she called Juelan over and told her about entering the palace, and asked her to learn the palace rules well these days and not to make any mistakes. Juelan walked with a bit of arrogance, as if she wanted to announce this to everyone in the mansion.
Three days later, as expected, the word from the palace was passed down. Everyone in the Taifu Mansion didn't believe that the person Concubine Liang wanted was Juelan. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't figure out any connection between the two of them. Juelan, on the other hand, looked very proud. She stepped forward to receive the oral order and went back to prepare things for entering the palace tomorrow. Aunt Zhao was also busy running around for her daughter and never stopped for a moment.
Bai Dao knew about this matter today. After all, Juelan was his daughter, so he called her over and gave her some instructions, telling her to be careful in the palace and not to break the rules or alarm the nobles.
Juelan was so happy that she could hardly fall asleep that night. She was almost thinking about how to marry into the Eighth Prince's mansion.
