She always plays cards out of the ordinary

Seeing Fu Cha Xinyu being so cautious, Yulan's attitude also changed, and she thought about it carefully.

"My young master, if you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have noticed it. But now that you've asked me, I've discovered that the harem is almost dominated by the Han army.

I have carefully counted them, and they are only the Empress, you, and a Borjigit noble lady, and the rest seem to be Han army flags."

Fu Cha Xinyun ate the bird's nest in small bites, with a sense of leisure and confidence. In fact, when she asked Yulan this question, she had already gone through the surnames of all the famous concubines in the palace in her mind.

At this time in the Qing Dynasty, Manchus and Mongols were the most noble, but now is not the early Qing Dynasty when Mongolian concubines dominated, so the most honorable flag now is still the Manchu military flag.

However, in Yongzheng's harem, the Han army flag accounted for the majority, and it is not known whether it was a coincidence or someone did it on purpose.

"Yulan, do you think that among Emperor Kangxi's princes, how many are like our emperor, who has no women of Manchu military origin in his backyard except his wife?"

Yulan was a maid carefully trained by the Fucha family. She was smart and immediately understood what Fucha Xinyun meant.

"Madam, do you think that someone is playing tricks here?"

As Yulan spoke, her finger pointed towards the Empress Dowager's Shoukang Palace.

Seeing that she understood, Fucha Xinyun did not express her opinion, but continued, "Look at our emperor's brother, the Fourteenth Master. If I remember correctly, the Fourteenth Master's wife is Wanyan, and his two concubines are Shushujueluo and Yiergenjueluo, not counting concubines.

Look at our emperor again. Both of his concubines are Han army flags. There must be a purpose for this, but Yulan hasn't guessed it yet, or hasn't dared to think about it.

It was not until Fucha Xinyun told her about the impact of the queen's seizure of power that Yulan finally got the idea in her mind. She took a deep breath and suddenly realized that her mistress's idea was entirely possible.

"My Lord, should we give it a push? Like this..."

As calm as Magnolia is, she becomes uncalm under such temptation and even wants to take the initiative.

Upon hearing this, Fucha Xinyun's expression suddenly became a little fierce. "Yulan, you are impatient. Most of the palace maids have already left the palace. Even the Queen Mother who has worked in the harem for many years is probably seriously injured. How do you think that I, a concubine who has just entered the palace, can overthrow the Queen in this harem full of sieves? Just relying on those people planted by the Fucha family? Idiot!"

After being scolded by Fu Cha Xinyu, Yulan finally realized what she had just said, and she quickly knelt down.

"My lady, I was too careless and was... carried away by the temptations. Please punish me, my lady."

Fu Cha Xinyun did not let it go. He knew that this matter was of great importance. Although it was too early now, a thousand-mile dike could be destroyed by an ant hole. He had to control the people under him to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.

"Since you asked to be punished, you should kneel in this room for an hour to sober up."

"Thank you, my lord."

Fucha Xinyun looked at Yulan kneeling down, feeling a little reluctant, but still refrained from exempting her from punishment, and only explained: "Yulan, you have to know that some things are not something you can enter or retreat as you wish. The Queen's problem has never been with us, but with the Emperor. (It's about whether the Emperor can tolerate the Queen, who is an expert in abortion)"

The conversation was ultimately limited to the two of them. The palace maids in Yilan Palace didn't know why, but since Yulan, the personal maid, was punished, they served her more carefully.

Jinxi finally stayed in the palace, without Shen Meizhuang's help, Su Peisheng arranged it for her. The emperor's order cannot be disobeyed, but there is actually a loophole in Jinxi's case. Su Peisheng did not dare to disobey the emperor's order, but this matter was obviously not a big problem, so Jinxi was transferred to the Accounting Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The Accounting Department is a good department. It is not only in charge of the taxes and farmhands of the royal estates across the country, but the most important thing is that it also has the responsibility of selecting eunuchs, palace maids, wet nurses and nannies.

What does this mean? It means that the servants in each palace are selected by their departments. If you want to serve in any palace or under any empress, you have to pay money, so this is also a place with a lot of money.

Even the prince's wet nurse was selected by them, so you can imagine how good this department is.

Su Peisheng put a lot of thought into Jinxi, even Zhen Huan was surprised.

"Jinxi, you didn't tell me you had this relationship. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have to ask Sister Mei for help."

Jinxi quickly explained, "My lady, I had to rely on many connections to get to the Accounting Department, and this has used up all my savings over the years."

In fact, Jinxi lied. How could a position in the Ministry of Internal Affairs be found with just a little money? She got this job entirely thanks to Su Peisheng.

Cui Jinxi actually didn't want Su Peisheng to help. The masters didn't know this, but the servants all knew that many positions in the Imperial Household Department were hereditary, and there were many bannermen families in the department, who controlled various departments of the Imperial Household Department.

Then they make money from it, and it can be said that they live a more comfortable life than many other ladies in the palace. Some of them are even too precious and rare to enter the harem at all.

After all, the masters like what you offer very much. If they want it again and it’s sold out, the masters won’t care whether you have it or not. I must have what I want.

Therefore, the noble families in the Imperial Household Department formed a tacit understanding that they would simply withhold the small quantities and keep them for themselves and not send them away, and only send the quantities that could be supplied continuously and stably.

Zhen Huan and the others didn't know these things, but Jing Xi had been in the palace for so many years, how could she not understand them.

Therefore, she guessed that Su Peisheng must have put in a lot of effort this time.

But she wasn't planning on anything happening between her and Su Peisheng, so how could she have the nerve to accept it?

But leaving the palace was imminent, and Zhen Huan still had to rely on Shen Meizhuang to find a solution. Jing Xi had been worried before, but now that Su Peisheng helped her, she had no choice but to accept it.

However, Jingxi didn't plan to let Zhen Huan know that she and Su Peisheng were from the same hometown. After all, she wouldn't be staying with Zhen Huan in the future.

Obviously, the power of the substitute was not as great as she imagined. Besides, she did not leave Zhen Huan on her own initiative. No one wants to encounter the situation of a palace maid leaving the palace.

"What's the big deal? If you don't have enough money, just tell me. How can I, your young master, treat you unfairly?"

Zhen Huan didn't know what Jin Xi was thinking, but she was no longer the newbie she was when she first entered the palace. Jin Xi's job was not only lucrative, but also had some special conveniences. As long as Jin Xi stayed in the Imperial Household Department, some things would be much more convenient for Zhen Huan.

After Zhen Huan finished speaking, she called out to Liu Zhu, "Liu Zhu, go get the box on my dressing table. I need it."

"Yes, my lord."

Zhen Huan took the dressing box, poured out the jewelry she often used, and took out two 50-liang silver notes from the bottom.

"Jinxi, you just went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so you must have spent some money to get acquainted with other people. Take this hundred taels first, and tell me if it's not enough."

Jin Xi quickly refused, "My lady, how can this be possible? In the palace, the masters have to give rewards during festivals. Even though it may not be much at one time, there are still many days in the palace, and you have to consider the future.

When I go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, I will receive a stipend, which will be enough for me to use.”
