Chapter 492: Maintaining the Personality
Chapter 492: Maintaining the Personality
Just watching Wen Yao doing what she had always wanted to do, and there was no movement in other places, the Eighth Lady couldn't help but want to come and take a look, and also want to... learn from her!
Wen Yao drank the warm water and looked up at the Eighth Lady, her eyes full of confusion. "Scold me? Aren't there enough people scolding me? I'm not afraid of this."
She was afraid of implicating other women in the Dong'e clan, but this would not implicate them, and would even make the women of the Dong'e clan very popular!
As for those who scolded her, they were probably not from big families. After all, what she was doing now was to protect the entire mansion and arrange the entire mansion properly to prevent spies from inserting!
This is also to give face to her Tangtang. You can see that Tangtang is becoming more and more arrogant these days!
"Eighth sister-in-law, I think every time you act arrogantly, it's inappropriate. For example, you use those princesses in the backyard to establish your authority, and you use those servants to establish your authority, but you really don't hurt anyone. You either punish them for their monthly salary or punish them for copying books. In the end, it's all your reputation that is damaged." Wen Yao looked at the Eighth Lady. She felt that the Eighth Lady's behavior was really unnecessary. "But it's right for the Eighth Sister-in-law to punish them. I'm just expressing my own thoughts."
"No, you are right." The Eighth Lady stared at Wen Yao for a long while, then smiled bitterly, the arrogant skin on the outer shell seemed to fade away, and at this moment, the Eighth Lady was like a frost-bitten eggplant. "Hui Mufei also reminded me, but I... I want people to know that I am very generous and not jealous, but I really don't want to push the Eighth Master out. What I do in the mansion is to establish my authority. This is the method I can think of, but I am also afraid that my reputation will spread and damage the women in the clan, so I want people to know that I am not afraid of women entering the mansion."
Wen Yao didn't want to talk, there was really nothing much to say. She didn't sympathize with the Eighth Lady. After all, the ones who suffered the most in this matter were the other women who had no choice. They were the most innocent!
Not only are they out of favor, but they also have to maintain their authority all the time. Who could be more miserable than them?
But Wen Yao thought about the little Lingtong that she had already spread among Kangxi and Jiulong, and looked up at the Eighth Lady, "Eighth Sister-in-law, I actually don't like Eighth Brother and Eighth Sister-in-law, but I also know that Tangtang respects you very much, especially respects Eighth Brother. Even after those things happened, Tangtang still does so, so I will just say some things directly."
"I know Ninth Brother's temper. How he treats Eighth Master, the Eighth Master and I both know it. Ninth Brother's sister, if you have anything to say, just say it. I know you are a straightforward person. We have had disagreements in the past, but they were all about the matter, not the person." Although Eighth Lady still disliked Wen Yao and was even a little jealous, she did not deny that she admired Wen Yao, Ninth Brother's sister-in-law.
This is contradictory but not contradictory. After all, she really admires this sister-in-law with younger brothers, but you say you like her?
The Eighth Lady can say with certainty that she absolutely does not like the Ninth Brother’s wife. It’s just that complicated!
"Then I'll say it, Eighth Sister-in-law loves Eighth Brother, so it's human nature to want to monopolize Eighth Brother. But since Eighth Sister-in-law wants Eighth Brother's exclusive favor and fame, has Eighth Sister-in-law ever thought about the innocence of those women? Will they resist if they are wronged? Some women dare not, but some women will rise up to resist and want everyone to be buried with them regardless of everything?" Wen Yao looked at the Eighth Lady, "Has Eighth Sister-in-law ever thought about it?"
"What do you mean, Ninth Brother's wife? Is there someone in my house who wants to deal with me? Does Ninth Brother's wife know anything?" The Eighth Lady narrowed her eyes and instantly understood what Wen Yao meant.
Wen Yao shook her head. "No, I just put myself in their shoes. I often wander around the capital, even before I got married, so I know people from all walks of life and all kinds of families. Some people seem to have a family, but they are no different from not having one. For example, I once met a concubine from a small family. She had a family, but she gave her husband and wife a sterilizing drug, and the eldest son of the family drowned. She also exposed herself and swallowed the drug."
The Eighth Lady was very surprised. "If that's the case, then wouldn't that mean the husband's family would take action against her family? If this gets out, who would dare to marry her daughter?"
"Yes, she knows very well that she also wants to take revenge on her natal family, because she is not favored in her natal family. Although she looks like a legitimate daughter, she is actually worse than a slave. Otherwise, why would she marry a concubine in a small family? Eighth sister-in-law, you see, if such a person has no children, then she has no weaknesses. People without weaknesses will not hesitate to take revenge on anyone!" Wen Yao knew some things, but she couldn't say them to the Eighth Lady. As for whether the Eighth Prince would come to ask Tangtang after she went back to tell him, that was the Eighth Prince's business!
After all, Wen Yao remembered that she had to maintain her character at all times and not give Kangxi any chance to find fault with her!
Wen Yao might not know something occasionally, but she couldn't miss the big picture. After all, the one who was going to be drugged this time was not the Eighth Concubine, but the Eighth Prince!
If something happened to the Eighth Concubine, Kangxi might even applaud, but if something happened to the Eighth Prince, Kangxi would not be able to react at the time, but afterward he would always think of himself, who had a cheat and loved to watch the show!
Even if she really didn't know, Kangxi would have something in his heart, which would be fatal to Wen Yao. After all, no one could guess what Kangxi would do before his death!
So since it is a character setting, you must be loyal to it.
Once a person's character is destroyed, he is not far from destruction.
The Eighth Lady was a little nervous. She really couldn't determine whether there was such a person in her backyard. If there was, and if he drugged her and her master, the Eighth Lady didn't dare to think about it. But when she thought that Hesheli had been pregnant before, the Eighth Lady breathed a sigh of relief!
But his face changed in an instant and he touched his belly. If his master was fine, what about himself?
I don’t have any children, could it be that I have been infected?
"Ninth brother's sister-in-law, I have something else to do. I will visit you another day!" The Eighth Lady could not do it any longer. She wanted to go back and check it out, and also tell the master about this matter, asking him to look into it carefully. If there is nothing wrong, it would be good, at least it can be prevented from happening!
Wen Yao watched the Eighth Concubine leave in a hurry and smiled. The Eighth Concubine had not been pregnant not because of a pregnancy but because of her own physical condition, but she would not tell anyone about this.
The Eighth Prince will probably never have a legitimate son or daughter in his lifetime. As for illegitimate sons or daughters, whether they exist or not, it has nothing to do with her. She is happy to watch the show!
After Wen Yao settled down, the Eighth Prince's Mansion began to make movement, but over at Yin?'s Mansion, the Tenth Concubine didn't care at all. As for the Princess Guo Luoluo and the other two princesses and concubines in the mansion, the Tenth Concubine would take action but would never make a fuss and would not indulge them at all!
If Yinzhen dared to let her suffer any injustice, she would go directly to the Qianqing Palace to file a complaint. Even if Kangxi wanted to suppress the Mongolian forces, he would have to pay more attention to the wife who married his son for the sake of Mongolia's face, and would never let anyone bully her!
So the one who got beaten in the end was Yin? ...
