An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan
Chapter 394 Take precautions before they happen
"My lady, I feel that... this lady may have other intentions than to marry me!"
Zhen Huan chatted with Prince Dun's wife for a long time. After they finally sent each other away, Cui Jinxi said this to her.
"Indeed."
Playing with the string of excellent quality pearls, Zhen Huan had a complicated expression.
When giving herself the gift, Prince Dun's wife did not hide anything and expressed her demands.
That's right, the reason why she entered the palace to pay homage to the Queen this time, and when it was over, she came here specifically to look for Zhen Huan, all of this was to seek help!
However, Fu Jin was not asking for it for herself. The person she really cared about was naturally her husband, Prince Dun.
"Alas, I have heard before that Prince Dun has always been very respectful and loving to his wife. Now it seems that this couple is also in perfect harmony!"
Cui Jinxi was also present when Zhen Huan and Fu Jin were talking, and because of this, she also listened to the entire process.
The wife of Prince Dun was furious at her husband for offending the Emperor and for wanting to kill himself, but she couldn't just leave him alone. In the end, she could only attack and ask for help with complicated feelings.
However, the reason she came to see Zhen Huan was not entirely because she knew that Zhen Huan was currently in the emperor's favor.
"It's mainly because you didn't get a definite response from the Queen, so you turned your attention to me, right?"
Zhen Huan is quite self-aware and knows that the wife of Prince Dun is no ordinary person.
There must be a very important reason why the other party came to find me, and this reason is not difficult to guess.
"So what is the young master going to do now?"
The gifts have already been accepted, and she has even made some promises to Prince Dun's wife. Cui Jinxi is now very curious about what Zhen Huan's next move will be.
"When someone entrusts you with a task, you must be loyal to them. Besides, the emperor...is not unmindful of the brotherhood."
Based on her understanding of Yongzheng, Zhen Huan's tone was full of confidence.
On the day when Prince Dun angered Yongzheng, she was caught by him and was forced to vent her anger and grievances.
It is precisely because there have been so many in-depth exchanges like this that compared to ordinary concubines, it is naturally easier for Zhen Huan to guess the emperor's thoughts.
Of course, Zhen Huan was not so arrogant as to think that she could control Yongzheng.
The reason why she agreed to the marriage of Prince Dun's wife was because she had guessed that Yongzheng would "treat her with care and lightness".
After all, it has been some time since we returned from the Old Summer Palace.
Originally when he was in the garden, Prince Dun had been confined in a side courtyard to reflect on his mistakes because of the emperor's decree.
But the emperor had returned to the palace with his concubines, so Prince Dun certainly could not stay in the Old Summer Palace any longer. Otherwise, this period of reflection would have directly turned into "confinement".
At the beginning, Yongzheng's behavior towards some of his brothers caused a lot of discussion inside and outside the court. Even after becoming emperor, he had to take into account those rumors, so he needed a suitable step.
At this moment, Prince Dun was still "reflecting on his mistakes" in his own mansion, but Yongzheng did not restrict the freedom of other people in Prince Dun's mansion, which is why Prince Dun's wife could enter and leave the harem at will.
"Your Majesty actually wants to forgive Prince Dun?"
Cui Jinxi also thought of this and said, "Then why doesn't the Queen go with the flow?"
If Zhen Huan could notice such details, how could the Queen, who was already meticulous, ignore it?
If the queen could do a favor for the other party, it would be a good thing and not a bad thing.
However, the Queen obviously did not give any definite answer, otherwise, Prince Dun's wife would not have gone so far to seek a solution.
After all, the Queen is the empress and the Emperor's wife. Logically speaking, even if she wants to persuade someone, the effect should be stronger than that of Zhen Huan.
However, Prince Dun's wife eventually came to find Zhen Huan. It didn't seem like this was for an extra layer of insurance, but rather a desperate move, so she started with the noble who was deeply favored by the emperor.
"No matter what, Prince Dun's wife is quite generous."
Putting the pearl necklace back into the box, Zhen Huan asked, "Jinxi, whose name do you think the emperor will pick tonight?"
If it was her card that was turned over, Zhen Huan would have been ready to confess to Yongzheng.
But if it were someone else, she could also infer Yongzheng's inner thoughts from such details.
“That’s hard to say.”
Cui Jinxi did not have the ability to predict the future, so naturally she could not tell Zhen Huan who Yongzheng would choose to sleep with him.
However, judging from the current harem environment, they can actually be counted on one hand.
The Emperor would not easily visit the Queen unless it was the first or fifteenth day of the month, or if something big happened.
She might visit several pregnant noble ladies first, but the queen would not stay overnight.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, Yongzheng would either choose Zhen Huan or Concubine Hua tonight.
……
"Your Majesty, it's time to turn the tables."
After nightfall, the eunuchs from the Jingshifang came to the Yangxin Palace with plates filled with green cards, ready to wait for the emperor to make a decision.
"Can't you see I'm busy now?"
Faced with Su Peisheng's reminder, Yongzheng didn't even raise his head and continued writing furiously.
The emperor had already spoken, so Su Peisheng of course immediately understood what he should do. He winked at the chief eunuch of the Jingshifang, who had a bitter face and could only lower his head and walk out again with the plate in his hand.
This was not an uncommon example for emperors like him. Before Zhen Huan and others entered the palace, once Yongzheng was busy, he might not set foot in the harem for ten days or half a month.
In this regard, the pressure on the Jingshifang would become enormous. On the one hand, they had to face the possibility of being blamed by the emperor, and on the other hand, they had to bear the questioning of the empress dowager.
During this period, if one of the two masters is unhappy, he may be targeted. It is an extremely risky job.
After a while, Yongzheng finally finished the things at hand and stretched himself.
"Your Majesty, it's getting late. Do you want to stay in the Yangxin Palace?"
When Su Peisheng saw Yongzheng looking at him, he immediately walked over and began to ask about his well-being.
"I...will go see Lady Wan."
Yongzheng originally wanted to say that he wanted to go to Concubine Hua's Yikun Palace, but before he could say that, he recalled the other party's surprised look when she received the Imperial Concubine's dress, and his mood suddenly became extremely complicated.
"Yes."
Su Peisheng did not delve into the emperor's thoughts. Since Yongzheng already had a destination, he immediately arranged for the sedan chair to rush to Suiyuxuan as quickly as possible.
