Comprehensive Qing wear good luck

Chapter 278 Kangxi Concubine Ping 15

The prince was under great pressure and could no longer hold on alone, so he needed allies.

He turned his gaze to his younger brother below.

The Third Prince was a little clever. He felt that the Crown Prince's position was not that stable and he did not dare to make any bets casually. Facing the Crown Prince's solicitation, he practiced Tai Chi and pretended to be stupid.

The prince was angry, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only sulk.

Since he couldn't win over the Third Prince, he turned his attention to the Fourth Prince.

The Fourth Prince does not have any ambitions now. His biggest wish is for his adoptive mother and biological mother to live in harmony. It would be even better if Kangxi could pay more attention to him.

Although he does not have big ambitions, he also wants to establish a career. He has to take sides for sure. The prince is the orthodox one. No matter what, he will not be wrong to take the orthodox side. This is what he thinks at the moment.

Although the prince had many faults in front of Wu Lingzhu, in the eyes of the Fourth Prince, there was nothing wrong with him being the crown prince.

At the very least, their martial arts and knowledge are powerful.

With the support of the Fourth Prince, the Crown Prince felt much less pressure.

The Crown Prince felt less pressure, but the eldest prince felt more pressure.

He saw the prince looking for his younger brother, and also glanced at his younger brothers below.

He tried to win over the Third Prince, but the Third Prince ignored the Crown Prince, so naturally he didn't want to stand on the side of the First Prince now. Especially since he was good at literature and martial arts, the First Prince was just a reckless man in his eyes.

The attempt to win over the enemy was naturally a failure.

The eldest prince was not angry, as the two of them had never been able to get along. Then it was the fifth prince's turn.

But the Fifth Prince was still young and slow to learn. The Empress Dowager did not want him to get involved, and Kangxi did not want a prince with Mongolian embellishments to get involved. The Fifth Prince himself was told early on that he was out.

However, as long as Mongolia is around, he will have a rich and prosperous future as long as he is alive. Naturally, he will not think about getting involved in things that he shouldn't get involved in.

So the eldest prince had to look further down.

That's even smaller.

Because of his disfigured face and broken legs, the Sixth Prince has become very silent and unknown. The Eldest Prince looks down on such a person. Besides, he and the Fourth Prince are brothers from the same mother.

The Seventh Prince is lame, has low self-esteem, doesn't like to talk, and is no good either.

Then comes the Eighth Prince.

He was only seven or eight years old, very smart and good-tempered. He accepted the eldest prince's sudden love and care. The eldest prince's biological mother, Concubine Hui, was also the eighth prince's adoptive mother. For a time, the two brothers with a significant age difference started a honeymoon period.

Chengpin came over to talk about these things. She sighed: "... I didn't expect that the Crown Prince and the eldest prince would involve all the younger brothers. It's okay for the fourth prince. After all, he is just over ten years old and will soon have his own room. But what about the eighth prince? He has only been in the upper study for a few years."

Wu Lingzhu also sighed with her: "This matter is indeed a bit too much. The emperor doesn't care, and we can't do anything about it. I just didn't expect that Concubine Hui didn't stop the eldest prince and let him treat his younger brother as a slave."

Chengpin smiled and said, "As a slave, your Majesty's words are too direct."

"You are telling the truth. You are not an outsider. There is nothing I can't tell you."

When Chengpin heard this, although she knew it was just a polite remark, she was still a little moved.

Sisterhood is not easy to come by in the palace. The relationship between her and Wu Lingzhu is not as close as sisters, but there is indeed some affection between them.

"It's just hard for the Eighth Prince. He's a little kid. I heard that he and the Fourth Prince got along well before. But I heard from Little Seven that now the two brothers are starting to talk to each other in a different way."

"It's nonsense."

After Chengpin left, Wu Lingzhu called Chunying.

"I don't know much about Aunt Wang in Uncle Six's backyard and Uncle Three. Uncle Five's grandson's full moon banquet is coming soon. As a niece, I can't just watch Uncle Six become furious without knowing it. I have to arrange for Uncle Six to see it with his own eyes. We must make a big fuss. Uncle Six likes to drink, and he likes to fight after drinking. I must make Uncle Three suffer more."

The third uncle mentioned by Wu Lingzhu is Soetu.

My sixth uncle’s name is Fabao.

The two are not born of the same mother, one is the third child, the other the youngest. One is promising, the other was favored in the past. The two dislike each other, but now that Soetu is in charge of the family, Fabao can only keep his tail between his legs.

As for the matter between Fabao’s concubine and Soetu.

This kind of thing is neither rare nor uncommon in large mansions. The more sophisticated the place, the more common the dirty things are.

This concubine Wang was a courtesan who redeemed herself and entered the house. Her means were first-rate and even Soetu had visited her before she entered the house.

It would have been fine if they didn't know each other before, but Soetu and Aunt Wang saw each other from time to time, which was somewhat exciting, and after a while they got together.

Soetu was a cautious person. As he was the head of the family, he kept the secret quite well.

I heard about Wu Lingzhu from Xiaobai.

Chunying had not yet mastered the cultivation, and was shocked after hearing this. After she was shocked, she said: "My Lady, it would be bad if this matter was made public, right?"

It's the reputation of the Hesheli family that's ruined.

Wu Lingzhu said indifferently: "Every family has its share of jokes. Besides, my father has passed away, and my uncles' affairs have little to do with me. You can do it without worry."

She knew how lethal Fabao could be when he was drunk.

If Soetu doesn't die this time, he will be skinned alive. She must restrict his mobility before he becomes the number one sinner.

In the Hesheli family, only Soetu has some ability, and the others cannot be helped.

Chunying obeyed the order unconditionally: "Don't worry, Madam, I will make sure everything is perfect."

Romantic affairs in the harem are actually the easiest to arrange. You just need to give it some introduction and a little push, and things will basically happen as expected.

Five days later, Chunying came in.

"My lady, the Third Master was blinded in one eye by the Sixth Master."

Wu Lingzhu couldn't help but curl his lips: "Really?"

"it is true."

"Tell me the process in detail."

"The Third Master was drunk, so I arranged for someone to lead him to meet Aunt Wang. There was no one else around at the time, and the Sixth Master, who was drunk, saw them behind the rockery in the back garden. They immediately started fighting, and the Third Master was blinded in one eye, while the Sixth Master only had some minor injuries."

"Go get the imperial physician. He deserves to be sick after such a shameful incident happened in the family."

Because Soetu was blind, he had no chance to serve in the court.

Soon, the news of Soetu's blindness spread, and the prince was sitting in Yuqing Palace, confused.

He was surrounded by many princelings, but these people were all built around Soetu.

He cannot attend court, and even if he still has the ability, others will not obey him obediently.

In a short period of time, the prince could not find anyone to replace Soetuban.

The capable person has an unsuitable identity, while the suitable person has no ability. The prince is in a dilemma.

He couldn't help but complain: "How much does he need women? He even slept with his own brother's concubine. Hasn't he ever seen a good one? And at his nephew's grandson's full moon banquet, he was so hungry that he didn't care about what he ate..."

The prince was more mean than ever before.

He really hated it! Suo Etu was useful, and it was precisely because of this that he hated it that he could no longer use him.

It would be fine if it was because of something big, but it was because of a woman.

The eunuch beside him lowered his head and dared not speak.
