Fourth Master and Si Fujin drove back to Beijing first, and the couple brought back Honghui's small coffin.

It was several days after Fourth Master returned to Beijing that Yu Jia returned to the capital.As soon as Kangxi returned to the palace, he summoned the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to discuss. Not long after the imperial decree came out, Kangxi decreed to abolish the crown prince who had been sealed for 35 years.

With the abolition of the crown prince, the imperial court in the capital city suddenly became turbulent, and the waves were turbulent;

Under such a major situation, the death of Hong Hui and Eighteenth Elder Brother became a trivial matter. Except for the sad news of the two children's biological mothers, Si Fujin and Mi Concubine, no one cared about it at all.

Even the fourth master, because of the turmoil in the current situation, was panic-stricken and busy, trying to deal with the changes in the court situation in order to protect himself; under such circumstances, the pain of losing his son-in-law could only be suppressed temporarily.

Honghui's death was not a big deal to people outside the Sibeile Mansion, and it had no impact, but it had a great impact on the concubines within the Sibeile Mansion.

Because Honghui died when he was underage, the coffin could not be stopped to keep watch. Honghui's coffin was buried the next day after it was transported back to Beijing.

After Hong Hui was buried, Si Fujin locked herself in the main courtyard and didn't show up for several months.

Under the turbulent situation in the capital, Jiang Wanyin, the side Fujin who is in charge of the Sibeile Mansion, can only step forward to replace Sifujin to stabilize the Sibeile Mansion, block some malicious people in the mansion, or come with a purpose. A fawning person, solve the worries of the fourth master for the fourth master, so that the fourth master can concentrate on dealing with the situation of the court.

Not only that, but Jiang Wanyin has to take care of and protect her children.

Fortunately, the triplets are only seven years old this year, and because Honghui is studying in the palace, Sifu Jin is unwilling to let Hongxu also study in the palace with Honghui, so Hongxu did not enter the palace, but with his second elder brother Honghui. Yun studied in the mansion together.

Fortunately, this is the case, otherwise if Jin Hongxu was in the palace, Jiang Wanyin would be so worried that she would have trouble sleeping and eating.

Jiang Wanyin was so busy until the twelfth lunar month, when Si Fujin finally came out of the main courtyard.

Fearing that Si Fujin would suspect that he was taking power, on the first day Si Fujin resumed paying his respects, when Jiang Wanyin went to pay his respects early in the morning, he asked someone to send the account books and cards to the main courtyard and hand them over to Si Fujin.

Seeing Sifujin, I found that Sifujin has changed a lot. First of all, he has lost weight, and his face and temperament have also changed a lot.Honghui's arrogance in Shi Sifu Jin, his arrogance towards the concubine's room, and his contempt for the concubine's room were not concealed.Those who enter the Four Fujin are noble, graceful and luxurious.Now Sifujin has become gentler, not as dazzling as before, and her whole temperament is round and non-aggressive.

The Sifujin changed so much that Jiang Wanyin was shocked.

"Fujin, before you were unwell and asked my concubine to assist you with the general affairs of the mansion. Now that you have recovered, I will return the account books that were entrusted to my concubine to you today."

After saluting the Sifu Jin, Jiang Wanyin immediately stood up and told Qinghe and Li Lu to submit the account books they had brought.

"It's hard work for you to share Ben Fujin's worries these few months."

Sifujin said in a gentle tone.

"It's a concubine's honor to share Fujin's worries."

Sifujin signaled Aunt Wula to accept the account book and the cards.

Next, Sifujin was uncharacteristically friendly to Jiang Wanyin, which made Jiang Wanyin's hair stand on end.

After asking An to go back that day, Jiang Wanyin immediately ordered her servants to strengthen the protection of the five children, especially Hongxu who had moved to the front yard and lived in the front yard to study. There is nothing unclean in Hongxu Courtyard.

Fortunately, since Hongxu moved to the front yard, Jiang Wanyin often asked Qinghe to visit Hongxu, but this matter did not attract attention.

However, the fourth master, who had been sending people to protect the child secretly, made people strengthen the protection of the child again after knowing Jiang Wanyin's actions.

Having lost the eldest son, the fourth master now has only five elder brothers, of which Hong Yun is still weak and sick, and the two younger ones are twins.At this time, the fourth master, who had already moved his mind, paid more attention to the heirs, so he made people strengthen the protection of the children.

Of course, Jiang Wanyin didn't know this.

After handing over the housekeeping rights, apart from occasionally caring about Fourth Master, Jiang Wanyin put all her energy and thoughts on the children, protecting the five children tightly.

Although the stewardship was returned, Si Fujin has no son now, and she, who has sons, favors and status, immediately has many servants to join her, which also greatly strengthens Jiang Wanyin's control over Sibeile Mansion.

Of course, she didn't use her connections to harm others, it was just to guard against other schemes and protect her children.

Jiang Wanyin knew Si Ye's bottom line, so how could she violate Si Ye's bottom line, otherwise she would be the second Li Shi.

During the half a year in charge of the housekeeping, Jiang Wanyin finally got some clues, knowing that the fourth master's people were monitoring Li Shi and Jia Yuanchun.Because Jia Yuanchun wanted to attack some children in the mansion, but Jiang Wanyin found out, and Jiang Wanyin was stopped by others before he could stop him.

Jiang Wanyin secretly investigated and found out that it was the fourth master.

What's more, the child is not only the fourth master's bottom line, but also Jiang Wanyin's bottom line. After so many rebirths, she has never set her hands on children.

Fortunately, he was busy at the end of the year, and Sifujin didn't know if it was because he was busy that he remained silent.

But even so, Jiang Wanyin did not relax her vigilance.

On New Year's Eve, Jiang Wanyin and Si Fujin brought all the children in the mansion except Song Gege's Si Gege into the palace to attend the New Year's Eve banquet.

Because Concubine De is the fourth concubine, as in previous years, the two took their children to Concubine De's palace first.

Since Concubine De was disfigured due to illness in 44, although she has been cured after being treated by the imperial physician, her face has aged a lot due to the use of drugs, with many wrinkles and sagging skin, making her look very old.

Even after using countless tonics and medicinal materials, her appearance could not be restored, and no matter how heavy the makeup was on her face, she could not hide her age.

It is said that in 47, Concubine De was already 48 years old. Before Concubine De was not disfigured, she was already in her 40s and she looked like she was in her early thirties.After the disfigurement, the 48-year-old Concubine De looked like 58 years old, older than the oldest Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong in the palace, and older than Kangxi.

So Concubine De fell out of favor after she disfigured herself.

Kangxi was a person who never wronged himself. There were countless delicate and fresh concubines in the palace, how could he wrong himself to see the old face of Concubine De.

But Kangxi is not a ruthless person. Although Concubine De is not in color, Kangxi did not demote her status because of this, nor did anyone severely deduct her status. But in terms of favor, she is the one who cares most among the four concubines, worse than Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong.

Since Concubine De fell out of favor, Concubine De's deadly rival, Concubine Yi, came to Yonghe Palace every three days to see Concubine De's jokes.

Concubine De also became more and more gloomy because of her disfigurement, falling out of favor and concubine Yi, and treated the concubines in Yonghe Palace extremely harshly.

This caused the concubines to complain repeatedly, and some beloved concubines begged Grace to move out of the Yonghe Palace.

Because Concubine De disfigured Kangxi and was unwilling to come to Yonghe Palace again, the concubine agreed as soon as she begged Kangxi.

The favored concubines have all moved out of the Yonghe Palace, leaving only a few old concubines who have long been disfavored in the Yonghe Palace. Without the emperor's favor, the Yonghe Palace is as cold as the Lenggong.

Concubine De's temperament is getting more and more gloomy to the point of being frightening, no matter the children from Sibeile's Mansion or the Fourteenth Master's Mansion are unwilling to come to Yonghe Palace, they are all afraid of Concubine De.

In the past, when Jiang Wanyin and Si Fujin brought their children into the palace, both of them were wary of the concubine De, but this year Hong Hui was gone, and Si Fujin was on the sidelines.Because the fourth master told Jiang Wanyin to take care of Da Gege and fourth elder brother Hongyun, Jiang Wanyin took care of the six children alone, and her spirit was always tense.

Fortunately, Da Gege is old and can help Jiang Wanyin take care of her fourth elder brother.

Hong Yun and Hong Xu are older, they just follow Fourth Master, Jiang Wanyin doesn't need to worry about the two older ones.

After the concubine De concubine disfigures, she hates young and beautiful women the most. The female family members of the Sibeile mansion and the Fourteenth master's mansion are not welcome by the concubine De.

Especially Jiang Wanyin who is more beautiful than others.

Jiang Wanyin felt that Concubine De's gaze on her face seemed to be poisoned, and Jiang Wanyin was seen shivering.

Jiang Wanyin shivered again, she looked a little uncomfortable, but she didn't want Si Fujin to watch someone who wasn't paying attention.

"Sister Jiang Jia, what's the matter with you? You don't look very good, but what's wrong?"

Sifujin asked Jiang Wanyin with concern.

"What? This makes you, Jiang Jia, uncomfortable with Fujin in this Palace?"

As soon as Si Fujin's words fell, Jiang Wanyin heard De Concubine's chilly voice, and De Concubine's voice was as if it had been grinded out of her throat.

By the way, the current Concubine De not only looks old, but her voice has also become hoarse and old. The voice coming out of her mouth is like the voice of the dark witch of the West in the future.

Concubine De originally had a good appearance and a delicate and crisp voice like a singing voice.

Jiang Wanyin's revenge ruined her appearance but did not ruin De Concubine's voice.But Concubine De has been favored in the palace for decades and offended many people. After Concubine De fell out of favor, she secretly revenged on Concubine De and drugged Concubine De to ruin her good voice.

Concubine De, who even had her voice ruined, became reluctant to talk, and her temperament became more gloomy and terrifying, just like the dark witches in the West.

"Duo Fujin is concerned, Ma'am, you misunderstood, I was just worried about Lord Baylor and the two children. Tonight's weather is colder than usual, and I am worried that Lord Baylor and the two children will be cold."

Jiang Wanyin explained softly, then looked at Si Fujin

"Presumably Fujin is the same as the concubine, worried about Lord Belle and Hongyun Hongxu."

Jiang Wanyin directly stabbed Sifujin in the heart, how could Sifujin who lost his son worry about other people's children.

Jiang Wanyin didn't want to tolerate Si Fujin's provocation.He didn't even look at this place, knowing that Concubine De didn't like Fourth Master, he was still picking trouble in Concubine De's palace.Obviously they are the people of Sibeile Mansion, no matter what conflicts there are in the mansion, they should be consistent with the outside world, but Si Fujin obviously doesn't think so.

After Jiang Wanyin finished speaking, she ignored Si Fujin, whose lips trembled in anger, and looked outside the palace. Jiang Wanyin didn't give Concubine De and Si Fujin a chance to talk, and continued, "It's getting dark outside, and it's almost time for the banquet. Shouldn't it be over?"

Jiang Wanyin looked at Concubine De respectfully and said, "Madam, will my concubine and Fujin take care of your dressing and changing?"
