Secrets of Yuqing Palace

After writing down the names on the list in her hand, she threw both pieces of paper into the charcoal brazier and burned them to ashes.

Then he gave the information about the spy in Yonghe Palace to Yucui.

Let Yucui arrange someone to contact the young eunuch, and then investigate with the young eunuch to find out whether it was Depin who was behind the incident with Concubine Mu.

After receiving the order, Yucui also took quick action.

As for the banknotes in the box, there were a total of thirty thousand taels.

Wanyu handed the banknote to Xia Lu, who was in charge of managing her private dowry, so Wanyu felt at ease handing it over to her.

Wanyu's dowry, plus her own private property, and the silver given by her family and clan in recent times, all added up to an estimated 400,000 taels.

The bulk of it was the dowry, which was raised for her by the entire Guwalja clan and related in-laws, totaling 300,000 taels.

This was only the cash she had on hand, not including jewelry and dowry shops.

If Yinreng's cash is included, the two of them have over one million taels of cash.

His wealth is really incomparable to that of the eldest prince Yinzhi.

Whether it was the dowry left by the late queen or the relics left to Yinreng by the Empress Dowager, Yinreng's treasury surpassed that of other princes.

After New Year's Day, the royal family will hold a grand Lantern Festival.

After this, this year's New Year's Festival has come to an end.

Time quickly entered the 33rd year of the Kangxi reign.

As time passed, Wanyu and Yinreng's relationship became better and better.

However, because the two of them intend to use contraception, there has been no good news about Wanyu so far.

Kangxi did ask Yinreng and the imperial physician, but Yinreng said that the Crown Princess had been recuperating in the past two years.

She wanted to get her body in good shape and give birth to a strong and smart little prince.

When Kangxi heard that it was for the sake of his grandson's health, he did not urge him any further.

Wanyu also found out through Yucui and informants in Yonghe Palace that the person who attacked the Fourth Prince's backyard was indeed Depin.

The things that the Fourth Lady's main courtyard had disposed of were also the dirty things that Depin had sent in through the Imperial Household Department.

According to information passed by the spies, the person Depin hated the most was Queen Tongjia, who took away her son.

The second is the Fourth Prince Yinzhen, a ungrateful and unfilial person.

Then there was that bitch Tonggiya, who personally chose her daughter-in-law, Ulanara.

Finally, there is the concubine Guaerjia, who is the sister of the Crown Princess.

The reason why they disliked her because she was the Crown Princess's cousin was that the Guwalja clan's mother's family was powerful and had the Crown Princess as their backer, so she was difficult to control.

The second reason was that Depin interfered in the wedding of Yinzhen and Ulanara, and was reported to the emperor by the prince.

Then the emperor demoted her!

She couldn't deal with the iron-clad Yuqing Palace, so she could only deal with her son's concubine, the Crown Princess's cousin.

Things haven't been going well for Depin lately, and her mood has been unstable.

When she was unhappy, she couldn't help but insult these people in private in the hall.

Especially every time the Fourth Prince Yinzhen went to Yonghe Palace to pay his respects to her.

She thought she had run Yonghe Palace like an iron bucket, and the people in Yonghe Palace were either promoted by her or arranged by her family, so she had nothing to worry about.

But she had no idea that someone in her palace had already been bribed.

Depin did not like her son Yinzhen. After Empress Tongjia passed away and Yinzhen returned to her, she began to make preparations.

She wanted to completely control her son.

Therefore, there are many Depin's spies in the Fourth Prince's backyard.

She had arranged all of this early on.

The Fourth Prince had no idea that his own mother was very hostile towards him.

He attacks his women, doesn't want them to give birth to his children, and is even full of hostility and disgust towards himself.

After Wanyu found out the truth, she asked Wanlin whether she should report the matter to the Fourth Prince, and she could give her the evidence.

But Wanlin rejected it.

Although she wished Depin would die at this moment, she could not tell the matter to the Fourth Prince Yinzhen.

The Fourth Prince did not doubt his own mother's sinister intentions.

She is a very realistic person. Since she is unwilling to take the initiative to harm others, she will just stand by and watch.

So she thought of letting Depin continue to take action against Yinzhen's descendants.

Only in this way can you avoid dirtying your hands and reduce the number of opponents for your children.

She was also worried that if she revealed it, the Fourth Prince would be wary of her, and might even be embarrassed by her revealing the matter, and become alienated from her in the future!

So she decided to keep the matter under wraps.

Her next focus was to guard against Concubine De and those who did not want her to give birth to a child.

As she expected, Depin did not give up on taking action against Yinzhen's backyard.

There is a problem with Song Gege's tire!

She immediately arranged for Nanny Li Jia to investigate privately who was responsible for Song Gege's pregnancy.

To prevent someone from throwing dirty water on her in the future.

But her pregnancy wasn't any better.

The musk in the body was really stubborn, and the fetus was still young. Even if Imperial Physician Cui and Imperial Physician Yang worked together, they could only barely stabilize the current situation.

Moreover, in March, when the fetus was five months old, we started burning mugwort to protect the fetus.

Wanlin's ominous premonition grew stronger and stronger.

She was afraid that her worries would come true!

As for the Fourth Lady, no one knew what happened at the palace banquet during the New Year that irritated her.

According to the information passed to Wanlin by the spy, after the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Fourth Lady finally made up her mind to take the prescription to have her period early.

After half a month of treatment, the fourth lady finally had her period.

As soon as her menarche is over, the Fourth Lady will start to serve the emperor in bed.

After the Fourth Lady came to Kuishui, the people in the main courtyard immediately told the Fourth Master the good news.

The purpose is to cultivate a relationship with the Fourth Master so that the marriage can be consummated more smoothly.

The Fourth Master was indeed happy to hear the news, not because he could sleep with the Fourth Concubine, but because the Concubine's status would be more stable from now on.

Especially when his concubine and Princess Song were both pregnant, he was worried that his concubine would take action against his offspring because of her unstable status.

He was also worried that the concubine would fight with the concubine in the backyard because she gave birth to his eldest son, and even threaten the concubine's position.

Therefore, when the wife of the main court gave him a signal, he was happy to cooperate with her.

So during this period of time, the Fourth Master always stayed in the main courtyard.

Even if the Concubine was having her period and was feeling unwell, the Fourth Master would always stay by her side whenever he returned to the backyard.

Wanlin had no feelings for Yinzhen.

And because of her memories of her previous life and her third sister, she also knew a lot of inside information.

Therefore, she had no objection to Yinzhen's favoritism towards his wife.

To her, Yinzhen was just a tool for her to give birth to a prince, to secure the throne for her little prince, and to lead the family's glory to continue for a hundred years.

However, the two princesses in Jingya Hall were somewhat dissatisfied.

Song Gege was dissatisfied with her pregnancy, but Fu Jin wanted to take away all the attention of the Fourth Master and showed no consideration for the child in her belly.

Li was dissatisfied with the fact that the concubine was too jealous. As a concubine, she even competed for favor with the concubines.

As the only concubine who was not pregnant, she didn't even have the chance to serve the emperor in bed!

How could she get pregnant if she couldn’t sleep with him?

If she doesn't get pregnant and give birth to more children, how can she get promoted?

Li cursed the head of the main courtyard in her heart.

He also became more jealous of Song, who was pregnant in the same courtyard.

Especially after hearing that Song gave birth to the Fourth Master's eldest son and daughter, she was likely to be promoted to a concubine.

Apart from the wife and concubine, the concubine is the highest-ranking one in the backyard.

I will definitely move into the main house when the time comes.

Then what status does she have?

Among the women in the backyard, she has the lowest status?

Li is an extremely ambitious person.

She thought she was beautiful and much more beautiful than Lady Fujin and Lady Song.

Now he has to be inferior to others, and Li is really unwilling to accept it.

Now Li has been thinking about this and that all day long, with only two purposes.

Intercept the lady's favor!

Find a way to make Song lose this pregnancy!

Just as she was racking her brains for a solution, someone handed her a note.
