Qi Yuebin looked at the treasures displayed in front of him with lack of interest, fiddled with one of the cloisonné bonsai for a while, and listened inattentively to Jianqiu's work report to Yixiu.

Yixiu glanced at Qi Yuebin and saw him yawn, so she raised her hand to stop Jianqiu from talking. She carefully observed Qi Yuebin's expression before speaking.

"Don't worry, if Nian doesn't understand the rules after entering the mansion, I will teach her the rules of our mansion."

Because there were not many women in the mansion and it was not appropriate to still have no legitimate wife, Yinzhen asked Kangxi to give him Nian Shilan, the legitimate daughter of the Nian family.

Although the Nian family had a talented Nian Gengyao, he was just a rising star and a member of the Han army flag. Nian Shilan was not worthy of the position of the legitimate wife.

Thinking of Qi Yuebin's repeated refusals, Yinzhen, in order to please the old man who was becoming more and more suspicious, went to ask for the imperial decree to promote Yixiu.

How could a concubine be promoted to the main wife so easily? If this rule is opened so easily, the other princes' wives would probably have trouble sleeping at night.

But at that moment, Kangxi was suspicious and displeased because of his other sons' ambitiousness. He said that Yinzhen was unruly and punished him by making him kneel and reflect on his mistakes. But he turned around and immediately issued two decrees himself: promoting Yixiu to be the principal wife and granting Nian to enter the palace as a concubine.

Yinzhen was afraid that Qi Yuebin was playing tricks on him, so he often opened his private treasury to give her rewards, secretly promising not to let Nian surpass her.

It's not that he and Yixiu are a couple. Yixiu also found a bunch of things in her dowry to give her, and tried to comfort her with her words. Before Nian Shilan entered the mansion, Yixiu had already prepared a one-stop gift package of kneeling, copying scriptures and picking up Buddha beans as punishment.

Nian Mansion.

"Sister, keep this banknote carefully. Don't let yourself suffer. If you don't have enough, send a message to your brother and he will send someone to give you some money."

"Don't worry, sister. Although you are a concubine now, I will be able to support you with my military achievements when I fight on the battlefield in the future!"

Even though Nian Shilan was a young girl in love and couldn't wait to marry into the palace, she was still moved by her brother to the point that she didn't want to get married anymore. Nian Shilan looked at Nian Gengyao with tears in her eyes as he continued to give her instructions, but she didn't want to hear an unexpected turn of events.

"If anyone in the mansion bullies you, don't be afraid. Listen to my brother. After you enter the mansion, go and seek refuge with Mrs. Cheng. She's tough and has special skills, so she'll definitely protect you!"

Nian Shilan rolled her eyes at her brother and refused to agree.

"Brother, how can you help others to gain prestige? I will definitely get along well with the prince when I enter the palace. Why would I need to rely on others? I am not interested in this thick-skinned old woman you mentioned."

Nian Gengyao, who always loved his sister, turned Nian Shilan's body towards him with a serious face and spoke solemnly with a serious tone.

"Shilan, if anyone treats you badly, even if it's Prince Yong, I will definitely go and ask for an explanation!"

"But Qi Jia is different... She certainly wouldn't embarrass you for no reason. If you really fell into her hands, and I were afraid of her mentioning my brother's name, she would only beat you harder."

Nian Gengyao blushed in front of his sister. Qi Yuebin had left such a deep psychological scar on him! He was afraid that she hadn't beaten him enough back then, and would find an excuse to beat Shilan up in the future!

On the wedding day, Nian Shilan put on the wedding dress with the image of a three-headed, six-armed female Rakshasa that she had conjured up in her mind. She looked more docile and obedient, which made Yinzhen like her even more.

After a night of passion, after Yinzhen left, Nian Shilan called Songzhi and asked her to take some money and go back later to get more information.

Nian Shilan hurriedly gave a few instructions, looked at the time, and stood up to pay his respects to the legitimate wife.

Nian Shilan had already found out that the legitimate wife, Yixiu, was just a concubine's daughter of the Ulanara family, who had been fortunately promoted before she entered the family. Thinking that this old woman had stepped on her to get to the top, Nian Shilan was already quite resentful before they even met.

When it came time to serve tea, Nian Shilan was even more unhappy.

"I've heard that my younger sister is so dazzling, and now that she's my sister, I'm even less fond of her."

Yixiu praised her with a kind smile. Nian Shilan just raised her head to feel proud when she changed the subject.

"Now that you have entered the mansion, you must follow the rules of our mansion. This wife does not want you sisters to work hard, so from now on you only need to come to pay your respects on the first and fifteenth day of each month. I believe that sister Nian will not break the rules. Now, go meet the other sisters."

Nian Shilan curled her lips and turned around to see a graceful and elegant woman sitting on Yixiu's left. Her seat was not like the ones in other mansions, but was obviously higher than the seat on Yixiu's right. She was almost sitting next to the legitimate wife!

Qi Yuebin took a few glances at Concubine Hua, who would be the most favored concubine in the harem in the future. She was still a little immature at the moment, but her eyes and eyebrows already had a unique charm. She was like a passionate red peony. It was really a bargain for that bastard Yinzhen.

Nian Shilan bowed perfunctorily. Even though she heard her brother's reminder, her fear subsided a lot after she saw Qi Yuebin with her own eyes. She was just a woman, why did her brother do this to her?

Seeing that Nian Shilan was about to stand up with just a slight bend of her knees, Yixiu suddenly spoke.

"This is the Chengfu Jin, who was personally bestowed the title by His Majesty. Her status in our mansion is equivalent to that of the Pingfu Jin. My sister must show her a lot of respect."

Nian Shilan listened to the lecture in a half-squatting position, thinking only of grabbing Hua Yixiu's face. How dare she taunt him in public! At the same time, she was also furious at Qi Yuebin. Who let that old woman use her as an excuse to lecture him? Just wait and see!

After Nian Shilan returned to the yard and clattered a bunch of cups and plates, she finally calmed down and called Songzhi to report the news she had heard.

"Master, this Cheng Fujin is the first woman by the prince's side. She saved the prince and the life of the eldest prince in the mansion. I heard that she is also very close to Fujin."

"Save the eldest prince's life? What's going on?"

Songzhi told him all the information she had heard, including the affairs between Rouze and the prince, and the love-hate relationship between the two sisters of the Ulanara family. She told him everything in detail.

"Oh? Why didn't I see that little bitch from the Ulanara family who dared to dance and seduce people today?"

"Master, that Rou Gege lives in the Yaoxiang Courtyard in the back. I heard that she gave birth to an unlucky child and is now a well-known unlucky person in this mansion. Fu Jin took pity on her frail body and didn't ask her to come and pay respects. I heard that she usually just stays in the courtyard to recuperate."

Nian Shilan had just been offended in front of Yixiu and Qi Yuebin. She immediately came up with an idea. Since her younger sister had made her lose face, she would tear her sister's face off!
