But Wujina couldn't leave yet.

Because lunch was about to start, and Rouze was now using the excuse of recuperating from illness to stay at home, if she didn't stay and keep an eye on the situation, the two of them would really be like blind people.

I sat there with a lot of anger in my heart, looking at Yixiu acting like a loving sister, not knowing who she was acting for.

Apart from a belly full of tea, Wujina couldn't eat anything.

As soon as she came out of Yongkang Pavilion, Wujina went to Longjing Pavilion in Rouze.

After she exaggerated the matter to Rouze, Rouze said bitterly: "Now it is true that Wang Jiajinghua has just entered the mansion. If she really wins the favor of the prince in the future, I am afraid we will not even have a place to stay."

"Needless to say, now we have to think of a way to make her dislike the prince." Wujina replied unhappily. She even felt some resentment towards Rouze in her heart.

Rouze used the excuse of being ill in bed, but pushed her out to be bullied.

After all, this matter was caused by sisters from the same family.

Rouze is also disappointing. Not only does she scare Yisu, who is also a sister in the same family, but Yixiu is also more friendly to a person with a different surname than to her.

If she were a girl from the Borjigit clan, she would definitely not allow such a traitor to emerge from their family!

"For an unmarried woman, chastity is the most important thing. If people knew that this cousin was not chaste, not only would she no longer be favored by the prince, I'm afraid even the person who invited her into the palace would be implicated."

Wujina suddenly understood!

She smiled again, "Sister, what you said makes sense. If a girl not only lost her chastity, but also committed such an obscene act in someone else's backyard, I'm afraid she would just bump into a wall and die!"

"We need to think about how to get this cousin to take the bait. She lived in someone else's house before getting married. I don't think she is a law-abiding person."

The expression on Rouze's face froze. These words were clearly meant to mock her.

Wujina entered the palace late and was not very clear about how she became a princess, but she would not tell it herself.

After swallowing a breath, Rouze said, "I heard that the women in the backyard are most likely to have relationships with the palace doctors or guards. If there is evidence, we must tell Lord Beile to prevent outsiders from corrupting the atmosphere of our Beile Mansion."

After Wujina left, Rouze wrote a letter to Duoluo Gege.

In Yongkang Pavilion, Jinghua sat and chatted with Yixiu after bathing and changing clothes. There were two little people playing in front of them.

Yixiu introduced them to her cousin: "This little boy is called Honghui, he is my son, and the other little girl is called Nian Shilan, she is the youngest daughter of the Nian family, a year or two older than Honghui. Now her brother Nian Gengyao has passed the imperial examination, I like the little girl very much, so I keep her in the mansion to accompany me, which can be regarded as finding a companion for Honghui."

Nian Shilan looked at Jinghua, whose face was as frosty as autumn, with only a flower inserted in her hair. She thought of the fight she had with Honghui a few days ago over the flower arrangement, and couldn't help but become curious about the beautiful sister in front of her.

She grabbed Jinghua's skirt and tried to climb up. Jinghua quickly bent down and pulled her into her arms.

Reaching out her little hand and touching the little flowers in Jinghua's hair, Nian Shilan felt that the flower arrangement seemed not bad.

Then... next time if Honghui gives her flowers again, she should accept it reluctantly and not beat Honghui?

"Shilan is not shy. She likes her cousin." Yixiu was happy when she saw Shilan looking at Jinghua infatuatedly. She sincerely hoped that the people around her could like each other.

"Shilan and sister, I'm afraid they are destined to be together." Yixiu said, and then called Honghui, "Honghui, your thirteenth uncle and fourteenth uncle have returned to the palace to study. When Shilan returns home next month, you will officially study in the palace. You must study hard then."

When Nian Shilan looked at Jinghua, Honghui was originally looking at Nian Shilan.

Hearing what her mother said, her smiling face immediately fell, and she pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Mother, brother Hongxing is still young, and it's very lonely for me to study alone in the mansion!"

"What should we do then?" Yixiu looked at Honghui, waiting for his son to figure it out himself.

"I think it's better to let Sister Shilan stay with me, okay, mother." Honghui kicked his legs and climbed into Yixiu's arms, whispering in his mother's ear:

"Son, I heard that hiring a teacher costs money. If Sister Shilan can stay in our mansion to study, her brother will have to pay for the tuition. Wouldn't we be able to save some money this way?"

"Hey, I heard it all!"

Nian Shilan, who was lying in Jinghua's arms, was dissatisfied and protested angrily to Honghui.

Yixiu laughed. One of these two villains is the grandson of the emperor, and the other is the descendant of a general. How could they be calculating over a little tuition for enlightenment?

As a mother, she didn't know whether to praise her son for being good at managing the household, or to despise him for being so young and yet still coveting the money of a girl's family.

However, Yixiu also knew that Honghui said this because he didn't want Nian Shilan to leave.

As they were talking about this, Jianqiu came in and said that the prince would come to Yongkang Pavilion to rest tonight.

Yinzhen walked in with a frown on his brows, and one could tell at a glance that he had come to discuss a problem with Yixiu.

However, the first thing he said was, "I heard that Wujina met your sister today?"

What happened in the backyard could not be hidden from Yinzhen.

However, most of the time, as long as it didn't affect Yinzhen, he just didn't bother to pay attention.

But there must be a reason why I brought it up today.

Jinghua did nothing wrong in this matter, so Yixiu told Yinzhen everything, including the fact that she had given him two pieces of Shu brocade.

"You have done a great job. The main thing for the backyard is to maintain harmony and peace. As a concubine, it is your responsibility to consider and discipline them."

Yixiu's heart moved.

Yinzhen's words were just for audible listening, but his attitude is worth pondering. Could it be that something happened to the Borjigit clan in the previous dynasty?

Yixiu did not respond, she knew Yinzhen would continue talking.

After a moment of silence, Yinzhen continued, "You were there when Su He came to the mansion that day. What do you think of this person?"

"General Su He is a very dignified leader." Yixiu answered ambiguously. Since this matter concerned the previous dynasty, she would not easily reveal her attitude.

"Grand?" Yinzhen sneered, "Yes, it is really grand to disregard the majesty of the royal family."

He paused and continued, "Today, the Emperor summoned my eighth brother and me to the palace to report that Su He was a tyrant in the Khorchin grassland. The letters of complaint from other tribal leaders filled the Emperor's desk."

"If it was just the Khorchin clan that had the conflict, it would be fine. The emperor would have to find a way to mediate first. What's even more outrageous is that today, Datong Prefecture reported that someone dared to interfere in the official salt business and secretly stole it. After investigation, it turned out to be the Borjigit clan again!"

Hearing this, Yixiu was shocked.

Although she was in the backyard, she knew that the official salt business was highly valued by the court and it was one of the most important systems that Kangxi learned from the previous Han dynasties.

The location of Datong Prefecture is even more different. It is connected to the Mongolian grasslands in the north, the Central Plains in the south, Sichuan and Shaanxi in the west, and the capital area in the east.

The prosperity of Shanxi merchants today is closely related to their ability to judge the situation back then.

Ever since the Qing army entered the Central Plains, all the local officials of Datong Prefecture have been the emperor's confidants.

How dare Su He? !

"Sir, would you please write a letter to persuade Chief Su He? After all, his daughter is still in our house..."

Yixiu asked tentatively, and Yinzhen frowned and said, "I think the emperor is very angry. If I wrote a letter privately and the emperor knew about it, even though I have good intentions, I can't guarantee that the emperor won't think too much."

Yixiu nodded and said, "I understand. Princess Wujina has been married into the mansion for several years. I don't think she knows about such a big thing. Naturally, I will discipline her well on weekdays."

"Xiao Yi, I'm so tired." Yinzhen embraced Yixiu, buried his head in her neck and said, "Why is it that planning political affairs always has twists and turns..."

Well, it is indeed tiring.

Not only do you have to welcome and see off guests during the day, but you also have to work every night.

After much difficulty, he won Wujina's heart and endured humiliation in the hope of gaining further support from Suhe.

As a result, Su He was gone.

The scene when Yinzhen endured Su He's visit to his house that day is still vivid in his mind.

Yixiu knew that Wujina was already a grasshopper in autumn. Not only would she lose Yinzhen's patience, but she would also have to bear the revenge of this man out of shame and anger!

Yixiu sighed in her heart, whether it was Nian Shilan or Wujina, or even Rouze who was from the same school as her.

The family seems to be their biggest support, but in fact it is also their biggest weakness.

On the contrary, because she has no one to rely on behind her, she will make every decision more cautiously and choose more suitable people to accompany her.

Although it is hard, on the other hand, isn’t it also a kind of luck?
