Qing Dynasty: After Kangxi Kowloon heard my voice

Chapter 148: An Infuriating Bones

"What about Guo Luoluo?" Yinzhen looked at Wen Yao, "What are you going to do?"

"Don't worry, I won't do anything. You don't have to worry about me taking action. You know I'm worried about you, my tenth brother." Wen Yao laughed, and saw Yinzhen's ears turned red. "If you think this way, I won't make things difficult for you, my elder brother. I will take care of the Guoluo family myself."

"That's what I mean. Tenth brother will handle it himself. As for eighth brother and his wife, you can do whatever you want with them. I will handle eighth brother's side. Since he doesn't care about me, I don't have to save face for him." Yinzhen was not uncalculated, but he didn't want the years of brotherhood to collapse completely. He didn't expect that his repeated tolerance would not be rewarded with his gratitude, but instead further encroachment.

"Don't get angry at people who are not worth it. If you get angry, you will become sick and no one can help you," Wen Yao smoothed Yin'er's frown. Yin'er held Wen Yao's hand, and their eyes met, with a few soft smiles...

Time passed quietly between fingers. Wen Yao seemed unaware of the plots of Hesiks and Guo Luoluo. She continued to do what she was supposed to do and stroll around in whichever palace she was supposed to visit. It didn't matter even if someone was plotting against her.

Wen Yao believes that even if you don't go, they will plot against you, so why not go? Going there will help you understand yourself and your enemy, and maybe you can gain more experience. There's nothing wrong with learning more!

The news that Yinzhen's daughter Guo Luoluo was demoted to a concubine had already spread in the palace, but everyone just laughed it off. Except for a few people asking Concubine Yi, no one else said much. Concubine Yi would not say anything, only saying that it was the Tenth Prince's own backyard matter, and that the Tenth Prince was well-informed about the affairs of Empress Xiaozhao and Concubine Wenxi, so no one else dared to say anything even if they wanted to.

Yikun Palace.

Wen Yao sat on the right, the Fifth Lady sat on the left, Niu Yingying and Shuang Yingying sat below, embroidering a new pattern. Concubine Yi was also very happy, "This pattern is really beautiful, you don't have to embroider it for me, embroider a pillow for Wen Ke, it also has a good meaning."

"Yes," Niu Da Ying and Shuang Da Ying were also very happy, at least the queen could use them.

Wen Yao stood up and moved between the two of them, startling them both. "How about, can you help me embroider the cat and mouse pattern that you made for my mother on the screen?" She thought it was beautiful. The embroidery of the two people was so lifelike that it looked like the real thing.

"Let the Ministry of Internal Affairs help you, but don't tire them out." Concubine Yi looked at Wen Yao, "Don't you have a screen there?"

"Yes, it's not too much to have screens. The key is that Niu Yingying and Shuang Yingying embroidered them well. I don't need the others. Wanyan Gege and Zhaojia Gege asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make one, and they also made one for me, so I don't need it. But that screen is beautiful, mother, how about it..." Wen Yao smiled and looked at Concubine Yi, "Mother~"

"Don't say anything. I can't give you that screen. I really need it." Concubine Yi rolled her eyes. "Niu promised to double-agree. Don't listen to her blind orders."

"It's alright, Your Majesty," Shuang agreed and looked at Wen Yao, "Does Ninth Lady also want the same thing as Concubine Yi?"

"Is there anything else? Like pandas eating bamboo?" Wen Yao thought about it. She liked giant pandas, so was this possible?

"Okay," Shuang Da Ying and Niu Da Ying looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

"We can't let them suffer a loss. Their monthly allowance is not much to begin with," Concubine Yi watched the scene and did not try to stop it, but did say something.

"Your Majesty, there's no need!" The two of them spoke hurriedly, but Wen Yao also spoke.

"Yes! Yes, mother, what you said hits the nail on the head. This is called a transaction, a give-and-take. Otherwise, I won't dare to look for you next time." Wen Yao would not give them any gifts. She would just give them silver directly, mainly small change and silver melon seeds. After all, these were all things they could use.

"Thank you, Lady Jiu," Niu Da Ying shook his head at Shuang Da Ying and looked at Wen Yao and spoke.

The two of them cast grateful eyes towards Concubine Yi at the same time, and left without staying for long. After all, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were living together, and it would not be good for the two of them to stay there all the time.

The Fifth Lady watched the two people leave, smiled and turned to look at Wen Yao, "It seems that my ninth sister-in-law gets along well with Wanyan Gege and Zhaojia Gege. I was worried about my ninth sister-in-law, but it seems that I don't have to worry about her anymore." After a pause, "Why didn't I hear my ninth sister-in-law mention the Hexike clan? I remember there is a Hexike clan from the Ordos tribe in my ninth sister-in-law's backyard."

Concubine Yi picked up the milk tea, lowered her eyelids, and took a sip of the milk tea, as if she didn't hear it.

After Wen Yao sat down, she picked up some dried fruit and ate it. She smiled and looked at the Fifth Lady, Tatara. "Why are you worried about me? I am eating and drinking well and feeling very comfortable. Does Fifth Lady know about Ohesik? The Ninth Master does have a princess from the Ordos tribe, and she is Ohesik. Why did Fifth Lady mention her?"

"I didn't mention her, I just heard of her, but I didn't hear my ninth sister-in-law mention her just now. When she mentioned Princess Wanyan and Princess Zhaojia, I thought of Princess Hexike." The Fifth Lady glanced at Concubine Yi, as if to cover up something, and sighed softly, "My ninth sister-in-law should be more careful. Now that my ninth sister-in-law has just gotten married, it would be better for her to have a legitimate son as soon as possible."

"Master Jiu said there's no hurry," Wen Yao smiled at the Fifth Lady, and her words made the Fifth Lady choke. Wen Yao seemed not to notice and continued, "In fact, this is all thanks to the Heshik family."

"Thanks to Mrs. Hexik? Could it be that Mrs. Hexik is pregnant?" Mrs. Wu's eyes suddenly widened, and she looked at Wen Yao with a hint of excitement, which instantly disappeared and turned into deep worry on her face.

"Heshik didn't sleep with me. If she's pregnant, it's all over. Fifth sister-in-law, don't say that." Wen Yao didn't give Fifth Lady a chance to speak. She turned to look at Concubine Yi, "Mother, do you want to know why?"

"Hurry up and tell me. You're so anxious that I need you to ask me." Concubine Yi was listening carefully, but she refused to say anything. Don't you think this is a bit infuriating? "Are you asking me for money like Xiaojiu?"

"Does mother have any? After all, no one can have too much silver," Wen Yao simply stretched out her two hands and looked at Concubine Yi pitifully.

Concubine Yi wanted to hit Zhang Xin, but Wen Yao quickly took it back, "If you don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me. Why are you hitting me?" Seeing Concubine Yi glaring, Wen Yao smiled and said, "My mother is angry, Wen Yao is saying it now!"

"Hurry up and tell me!" Concubine Yi was so angry that she laughed. She smiled at the direction of the Fifth Lady and said, "Look at her. She is full of irritating bones. She is exactly the same as Xiaojiu. This is really the case that people from the same family are not alike."

"Mother, Master Jiu and I are like husband and wife," Wen Yao was very proud. Seeing Concubine Yi glaring at her, Wen Yao quickly said, "In fact, it's because the Hexik family wants to join forces with outsiders to plot against Master Jiu."
