Chapter 140 Quietly Changing
Yinzhen leaned on Wen Yao, listening to his fourth brother who only reigned for thirteen years after he succeeded to the throne, and might even have been murdered, or died of exhaustion. "It was right for me not to fight for that position," Yinzhen slowly let out a breath, as if the last trace of unwillingness disappeared at this moment.
"However," Yinzhen raised his head slightly and looked at Wen Yao, "Are you really talking about Fourth Brother?"
"It seems to have been adapted, but I'm not sure about the details," Wen Yao really hasn't read the original novel, not even "The Legend of Zhen Huan". She only knows that these are from fan fiction or short videos, but they can still be put together into a TV series.
"Let's not talk about them anymore. Come..." Yinzhen opened his arms, hugged Wen Yao and pressed on her...
In the main courtyard of the Third Prince's Mansion under the cover of night, the Third Lady Dong E Shuyin looked at her master who was sleeping soundly. She had never expected that the incident at the Fifth Brother's Mansion was caused by Concubine Rong secretly instigating the Fifth Brother's wife. A trace of disdainful smile appeared on the corner of the Third Lady's mouth. Today, when she went to Zhongcui Palace, her master persuaded Concubine Rong. Even though Concubine Rong did not complain, she knew that she was exposed and promised not to continue.
In her opinion, this time Rong Fei was probably used by the fifth brother's wife. No wonder she found out that it was the fifth brother's wife who took advantage of the situation, but in the end Liu Jia and her son died, Guaerjia had a miscarriage, and the fifth brother's wife completely took power, probably because of Rong Fei's involvement.
Was it Concubine Rong who schemed against the Fifth Brother's wife, or was it the Fifth Brother's wife who schemed against Concubine Rong? The Third Lady lowered her eyes. In her opinion, Concubine Rong was too stupid as a mother-in-law. If she hadn't been able to give birth, she might not have been able to sit on the throne of concubine. And she was so self-righteous!
She also couldn't understand why Concubine Rong hated the Empress Dowager so much. The Empress Dowager had never raised Saiyinchahun, but the Grand Empress Dowager.
If Wen Yao knew that the Third Lady was confused, she would definitely say that it was because although Saiyin Chahun was not killed by the Grand Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, he did die an unnatural death at the hands of certain people. It was a pity that they were no longer with us, but Korchin was still there, and the Empress Dowager was still there.
Even the Empress Dowager was perfunctory in her efforts to show her kindness to Yinqi, who was actually doing well and even had the support of Khorchin. How could Rong Fei not feel resentful and hateful!
However, Rong Fei can only digest all this slowly by herself, no one can help her, and the Empress Dowager's tolerance for Rong Fei will eventually wear out...
The Third Lady was thinking about her mistake, which was to despise the Fifth Lady Tatara. After reflecting on herself for a long time and learning from this lesson, she fell asleep leaning on Yinzhi's arm...
The Fifth Prince's Mansion, the main courtyard bedroom.
In the dark night, the Fifth Lady looked at Yinqi who was sleeping with his back to her. Thinking of Concubine De's attitude today, the Fifth Lady opened her mouth, but said nothing in the end. She slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
At this moment, Yinqi opened his eyes, without a trace of sleepiness in his eyes, "What do you want to say?"
The Fifth Lady suddenly opened her eyes, "Master, are you still awake?" She smiled sadly, "Did I disturb you?"
"It's okay, but... I can't sleep," Yinqi slowly sat up and sat at the head of the bed, looking at his wife who also sat up. In the dark night, they couldn't see each other's faces, but after a while of getting used to it, they could see each other vaguely. As for the expression, it was unclear, "You seemed to have something to say just now?"
"It was when I was paying respects today. This is what happened..." The Fifth Lady told me about her response to Concubine De. "On the way out of the Cining Palace, I realized that I was impulsive. Mother took me to Yonghe Palace to call the imperial physician. Fortunately, we went early, otherwise Concubine De would have gone to call the imperial physician first, and I almost got into trouble for you."
"There will be many times when you will be bullied like this in the future. You have to get used to it. This time, mother is here to help you. If mother is not here in the future and you fall into a trap, no one will be able to save you. I have been bullied many times," Yinqi looked at his wife, "I have to admit my own mistakes. There is nothing wrong with admitting them. I am not innocent, and neither are you. I haven't had a good talk about what happened before, but there is nothing to talk about. No one was innocent in that incident."
"Master, do you think I have to endure being trampled upon by Liu Jia?" The resentment that had been suppressed in the heart of the Fifth Lady could not be suppressed at this moment. She thought that after Liu Jia and her son died, she could completely let it go and no longer care about the Fifth Master. Unexpectedly, she... still cared and the resentment in her heart was still there.
"When did Master say that? Ruo Xiang, your mistake is that you always think that everyone looks down on you, and that everyone must first take the initiative to show you kindness. You are Master's wife, you are Master's first wife, and you are supposed to be in charge of this backyard, but have you ever really taken action to manage it? Master admits my own mistakes. Master despises your family background, but have you ever coaxed Master? Do you know that even the Seventh Brother's wife, who has such a strong family background, coaxed the Seventh Brother!"
Yinqi's grievances burst out at this moment. Yes, he was wrong! He admitted it himself, in front of the Emperor, his mother, and all his brothers!
But he, Tara, did nothing wrong? He just felt wronged?
He is a prince, does he have to coax Tala himself? No matter how low Tala's family background has been for hundreds of years, he can't complain? He must also like her?
"Seventh brother is timid in front of Seventh brother's wife, just like you are in front of me, you are inferior and cowardly. If Seventh brother's wife does what she does, she will coax Seventh brother, and you will also be inferior and cowardly. Do you want me to coax you like Seventh brother's wife? I am the Fifth Prince!" Yinqi looked at his wife, "Do you think I will do anything to coax people?"
The Fifth Lady lowered her eyes, feeling aggrieved but knowing that Yinqi was right, she was just cowardly, "Seventh Brother's wife has such a family background, of course she dares to coax Seventh Brother, you also said that I am the same as Seventh Brother, how dare I...how dare I go..."
"Why not? Those concubines have high family backgrounds? How can they be coaxed? Didn't I ask you to learn from the concubines, but when it was just the two of us, did you ever say soft words?" Yinqi looked at his wife, "Ruoxiang, you have low self-esteem but strong self-esteem. Your personality is the same as that of my seventh brother. It's a pity that I am not his sister-in-law. I am the fifth prince of the Qing Dynasty!"
Yinqi didn't want to talk anymore. "Now you have achieved what you planned, and all those who resented you are dead. Between you and me, you gave up when you were planning. I will not make public the fact that you instigated Hongsheng to murder Guaerjia clan, and the Liujia clan will not know about it. You can take care of yourself in the future." He was extremely wrong, and he suffered the consequences of not making a decision when he should have. It was all his own fault.
The Fifth Lady looked at Yinqi lying down, and a tear fell, "If I could treat you like my Seventh Brother's wife treated me, would you... like me as much as you like Liu Jiashi?"
Yinqi turned his back to the Fifth Lady, "I never say if. Facts are facts, wrong is wrong, right is right, the past is always the past, the future is always the future, what we know is always the present, what we can and must accept is the present." He paused, "Ruoxiang, now is now, there is no such mess. This is your own choice, and it is also my choice. You and I have no chance to regret it."
