Comprehensive Qing wear good luck

Chapter 277 Kangxi Concubine Ping 14

Chunying: "My lady, I accidentally saw the look in Concubine Hui's eyes, and I almost couldn't control my desire to eat people. And the Crown Prince, he looked at the Fourteenth Prince with a very unfriendly look. Oh, and Concubine De, I always feel that she is sinister..."

Chunying started talking about the scene she saw at the banquet when she returned to Chuxiu Palace. To sum up, none of the people outside were good people and were very hostile towards their Chuxiu Palace.

Wu Lingzhu said cheerfully: "We have done so much, they should be unhappy. If they are friendly, we should cry and punish the servants in the palace. The emperor is very kind to Chuxiu Palace. I don't want to hear from others that Chuxiu Palace is bullying others. In addition, this month, each person will be rewarded with an extra month's salary."

Chunying was full of fighting spirit: "Don't worry, Madam, with me here, Chuxiu Palace will be safe."

"Go ahead, you don't need me to accompany you here."

Wu Lingzhu was also happy to see Chunying so lively.

Chunying is not just a loyal palace maid to her, but her relationship with her cannot even be described as a simple sister. Only if Chunying is safe in this life, Wu Lingzhu will have a sense of security that she will not repeat the mistakes of her previous life.

Only after having a child did Wu Lingzhu take the first step towards success.

She still has a lot to do next, including protecting Yinju's safety, preserving herself in the harem, and maintaining her image in Kangxi's heart.

There were two intelligence brigades and she did a great job.

That day, Chengpin came.

She mentioned something: "The eldest prince and the crown prince had a fight. Have you heard about it?"

Wu Lingzhu knew about this, but she only learned it from her intelligence team. She should not know it openly because Chengpin's family was a bondservant and they were well-informed.

She shook her head and said, "I am not as well-informed as my sister. What's going on?"

Chengpin then explained the reason, and as she spoke she looked at Wu Lingzhu tentatively.

"Because of a horse, the eldest prince had his eyes on it. The horse breeder said that the prince had to wait for the first choice, and only if the prince didn't want it could the eldest prince have it. The eldest prince was not happy when he heard this, and he kicked the horse breeder and broke his leg. When the prince learned about this, he said a few words to the eldest prince, and the two of them got more and more excited and started fighting."

Wu Lingzhu's eyes widened in disbelief: "This doesn't sound like something a prince would do. It's too reckless. Did the emperor say anything?"

"I don't know. I came to tell you about this as soon as I got the news. I wonder what the queen thinks about this?"

Wu Lingzhu pretended to be stupid: "What can I think? It depends on what the emperor thinks."

Chengpin continued to test: "The emperor will probably be very angry this time, angry at the prince."

Wu Lingzhu chuckled: "Sister, you think too much. The prince is the prince carefully trained by the emperor. If he gets angry once or twice, it's just a small quarrel between father and son. It won't cause any trouble."

Chengpin understood a little, but didn't quite understand what her attitude towards the prince was.

When the Empress Dowager passed away and Kangxi was seriously ill, she was frightened by Wu Lingzhu once when she came here. At first, she thought that Wu Lingzhu had a problem with his brain. Entering the palace and falling in love with the emperor, isn't that a problem with one's brain?

But after careful observation, she felt that Wu Lingzhu did not seem to be a person with mental problems, otherwise she would have tortured herself to death in this deep palace.

Then looking back at her original statement, Chengpin felt that something was wrong and weird.

This time she just wanted to test what Wu Lingzhu really thought of the prince. She was on the side of Wu Lingzhu, but more importantly, she wanted to stand on the side of the prince.

Kangxi's favor to the prince was seen by the court and the harem, and it was not false at all.

But the more she looked, the more she felt that Wu Lingzhu's attitude was ambiguous.

She said with some uncertainty in her tone: "There is a niece in my mother's family who admires the prince. Do you think this can be accomplished?"

The topic has gone off track. Wu Lingzhu restrained her smile and said, "After all, it's more comfortable outside the palace than inside. Although Yuqing Palace is nice, it's too magnificent and looks crowded with so many people. With an elder like you, there's no place that wouldn't be a good place for the little girl to go."

Chengpin had no real intention of letting her niece become the prince's concubine. She nodded and said, "I will listen to your majesty."

She knew Wu Lingzhu better than anyone else. When Kangxi was seriously ill, Wu Lingzhu did not choose the crown prince and did not seem to intend to continue with the crown prince, but her surname was Hesheli.

Thinking of the Fourteenth Prince, could it be that she still wants to help a baby stand up?

But if you think about it carefully, why not?

As long as something unexpected happens to the prince, Hesheli will definitely support Wu Lingzhu with all her strength.

The more Chengpin thought about it, the more she felt that this was the truth, and her face turned paler.

The prince and Wu Lingzhu are in trouble?

But on second thought, she had no choice but to stand on Wu Lingzhu's side.

Chengpin didn't come for a long time. After a while, she came again. Wu Lingzhu didn't say anything, but Chengpin's attitude became more friendly and even respectful.

The follow-up to the fight between the Crown Prince and the eldest prince was that Kangxi stepped in and severely reprimanded the eldest prince, saying that he was unfriendly to his younger brother, disrespectful to the Crown Prince, and was an unkind brother and a disloyal subject.

Kangxi didn't say much to the prince, but the prince was not happy at all.

The atmosphere between him and the eldest prince was like a powder keg. They had not even exchanged a few polite words when they met before, but now, unless they were in front of Kangxi, the atmosphere was so tense that it almost led to a fight.

Kangxi knew it, but pretended not to know.

The Crown Prince and the eldest prince were at loggerheads, and the forces behind them were also not idle and fighting fiercely. Even in the harem, one could often hear people talking about the previous dynasty.

After the death of Empress Xiaozhuang, the Qing Dynasty basically did not allow the harem to interfere excessively in state affairs. The Kangxi Dynasty was even more sensitive to this. Even so, the struggles of the previous dynasty could be talked about by the harem, which shows how fierce the struggles of the previous dynasty were.

The prince returned to the study in Yuqing Palace again and again... once again angrily. After closing the door, he couldn't control his temper and kicked over the chair. The eunuch next to him knelt on the ground, trembling.

"Yinzhen, he deserves to die——"

"Master, please calm down. Master, please calm down..."

The Crown Prince went mad in his study. The eldest prince had always been at odds with him, but this was especially true recently.

His relentless pressure made the prince feel unprecedented pressure.

What frightened him most was not the targeting of the eldest prince, but the attitude of Emperor Kangxi.

The eldest prince dared to be so unscrupulous because Kangxi turned a blind eye and indulged him.

The Crown Prince did not think that the eldest prince would replace him, but the eldest prince did not think so. He just wanted to fight for it, and Kangxi's attitude made him feel that there was a chance of success.

It would have been fine if Kangxi had had this attitude from the beginning, as there are many cases in history where emperors and princes did not get along, but this was not the case in the past few years.

In the past, Kangxi was really good to the prince.

To put it bluntly, the crown prince was more afraid of Kangxi's change in attitude than the eldest prince's aggressiveness.

In the past, the crown prince was confident, and the eldest prince was very active. He didn't have to do anything, and Kangxi, his good father, would scold the eldest prince on his behalf.

Now Kangxi doesn’t do that anymore, and the prince lacks confidence.
