Secrets of Yuqing Palace

Yinzhen slapped his forehead.

"Oh, I was so busy eating that I forgot about the business."

He glared at Old Ten beside him.

"It's all your fault, Old Ten. You can't walk when you see food."

Yin? He said aggrievedly: "Isn't Brother Nine also happy with his meal?"

Yinzhen patted his shoulder, glared at him and said, "Isn't it because you were eating so deliciously that I couldn't help but eat a few pieces?"

Yin? He looked at the nearly empty plate of snacks on the kang table, then at his ninth brother beside him.

Yin? : How much is that?

He muttered quietly, "As far as I can remember, I only ate the two plates of snacks on my side."

"I only tasted a small piece of the two plates of dim sum opposite me before Brother Nine mercilessly took them away."

Yin? Although the voice was not loud, most people heard it, and everyone tried hard to suppress their smiles.

When Wanyu saw Yin'er glaring at Yin?, her ears turned red and she knew that the little guy was shy.

Little boys of this age care most about their face and self-esteem, so Wanyu quickly came to the rescue with a smile.

"You are growing up now. Your digestion is fast, so you get hungry quickly. You need to eat more to stay healthy."

Yinzhen immediately agreed and said, "Second sister-in-law is right."

Wanyu said with a smile: "Okay, you haven't told me what you want to see the second sister-in-law about?"

Yinzhen said in frustration, "I almost forgot about the important matter again."

He immediately bowed respectfully to Wanyu again.

Then he said solemnly, "I came here today to thank my second sister-in-law for the gifts she gave me, my fifth brother, and my eleventh brother yesterday."

"Eleventh brother is not in good health. Mother is busy taking care of him and is busy, so she asked me to come to Second Sister-in-law to express my gratitude."

"Oh, and there's also a return gift that Mother personally prepared."

"The snacks and gifts sent by my second sister-in-law are very much appreciated by my three brothers. Thank you for your kindness."

As he said this, he picked up the gift box on the Eight Immortals Table and placed it in front of his second sister-in-law.

Yin? He immediately placed another gift box in front of the Crown Princess.

"My mother asked me to send this to my second sister-in-law."

"Thank you, second sister-in-law."

Wanyu didn't open the gift box, but asked Xia Lu to put it away.

She smiled and said, "Okay, then Second Sister-in-law will thank Concubine Yi and Concubine Gui."

"Thank you, too, little messengers."

Yinzhen and Yin? Immediately, they smiled happily.

Yin? He said to Wanyu in a flattering manner.

"Second sister-in-law, it will be lunch time soon."

"It's quite far for my brother to go back to Yongshou Palace. I'm sorry to bother my second sister-in-law with lunch today."

Yinzhen was shocked when he heard his tenth brother's shameless words.

Then he said, not wanting to be outdone, "Since the tenth brother has come to stay, I am also disturbing the second sister-in-law."

Wanyu didn't care, it was just a matter of having two extra pairs of chopsticks.

And she didn't need to do it herself, she just needed to give orders to the palace servants below.

Moreover, she and Yinreng already had a tacit understanding that they should build good relationships with the brothers below and recruit as many helpers as possible.

For Wanyu, who knows a little history, Laojiu will be the God of Wealth in the future.

The purse of the Eighth Master Party!

Winning over Lao Jiu is not only beneficial to one's own side, but also can break up the Eighth Master's party without bloodshed.

So Wanyu smiled and said, "Okay."

"It just so happens that your second brother, the Crown Prince, will have lunch with Khan Ama in the Qianqing Palace today."

"Eating alone is quite boring. With my two brothers by my side, I think I'll enjoy my meal more."

The ninth and tenth elder brothers said in unison, "Then we'll bother Second Sister-in-law today."

Through the contact over the past six months, the relationship between Lao Jiu and Lao Shi and Dong Gong is very good.

Wanyu, their second sister-in-law, had saved their lives, and Wanyu was also very gentle and caring towards them, so they had a good impression of her.

With the help of this second sister-in-law, they became closer to the prince, which led to the two princes having a good relationship with the prince Yinreng.

Of course, this is not just because of Wanyu.

The children in the palace mature early and are sophisticated, unlike the children in later generations who are still naive and innocent in elementary school.

It is impossible for him to completely turn his heart to Crown Prince Yinreng just because of his second sister-in-law Wanyu.

They represent not only themselves, but also the forces behind them, their mother-in-law, their mother's family, their future wife's family, as well as the forces they have developed themselves.

The main reason why they tend to favor the Eastern Palace is because the Crown Prince can bring them benefits and advantages, and his relationship with them is not contrary to their interests.

Yinzhen liked gold and silver things and enjoyed doing business to make money.

He knew that as a prince, it was difficult for him to make his thoughts known.

But the Crown Prince's second brother promised him that he would make arrangements for him after he graduated from the Shangshufang and entered the court.

With the prince's promise as a guarantee, Yinzhen suddenly felt overjoyed!

The one Khan Ama loved the most was his second brother, the Crown Prince.

Moreover, the second prince has a say in the court. As long as he really wants to help me, it will not be empty talk.

And Yin? He just wants to live a peaceful and carefree life.

His mother's family was powerful, his mother was already a noble concubine, and he had people representing the old Manchu nobles behind him, so his future was almost bright.

As long as he doesn't get involved in the fight for the throne, even the throne of prince will be in his pocket.

The imperial concubine had mentioned to him long ago that if he had any idea of ​​standing out, not only the crown prince but even the emperor might not tolerate him.

If you want peace and stability, you have to follow the prince. Once you join the prince's camp, no one will target you or the forces behind him!

And it would also be what the emperor would like to see.

At least that's the case for now.

In addition, the lineage of Concubine Yi and the lineage of Concubine Gui had no intention of competing for the throne.

If they can get closer to the crown prince's camp as soon as possible, they won't have to worry about the future.

The main thing is that the prince is the crown prince and the rightful heir to the throne. Following him means the least risk and the greatest benefit!

Once the crown prince ascends the throne, they will at least be princes, or even princes.

Isn’t it easier than fighting on your own or following others to fight?

The two boys' behavior could not be hidden from their mother.

Although Concubine Yi and Concubine Gui had never had open contact with the Crown Prince and his wife, they were both smart people and had a tacit understanding in private.

Wanyu touched their heads.

"Okay, then I'll have the senior palace maid go to Yikun Palace and Yongshou Palace to tell the two ladies."

"I'll let you have dinner at Yuqing Palace today, okay?"

Yin? Surprise flashed in his eyes, "Then I'll trouble you, second sister-in-law."

Wanyu smiled and shook her head.

"Do you have any favorite dishes? Second sister-in-law will ask the kitchen staff to arrange it for you."

Yin? He shook his head. "The food here is good. Just follow her arrangements."

Yin'er didn't care much about food, so after hearing what his tenth brother said, he agreed.

"Tenth brother is right."

"My tenth brother and I are guests. Second sister-in-law doesn't need to worry about us. We should just follow the host's wishes."
