In fact, Concubine De was a little confused about the fourth prince's personality, but after the selection, the fourth prince must have someone to move into his house. This was the rule.

I just feel sorry for Mianmian. I don’t know if the fourth brother will forget Mianmian when he finds a new love.

But there was no way. Since she came here and was the fourth prince's concubine, she had to abide by the rules here. Some things could not be changed just because she wanted to.

"I know about this. I will take a look at it for the fourth brother when the time comes."

She can choose someone, but she has to choose someone who doesn't like to cause trouble.

Otherwise, the fourth brother’s backyard will be in turmoil again.

"I do have a candidate."

De Fei was surprised and looked at her, "Oh, who is the person you like?"

This was the first time that the Fourth Lady recommended a candidate to her.

"Actually, she's related to me. She's my cousin, Ma Jia Rui Ning. She's also of selection age this year. Not only is she beautiful, but she's also very gentle and well-mannered. I brought her portrait with me to the palace this time. Mother, I hope you'll see it."

As a concubine, she was qualified to choose people to serve her master, so Concubine De was only surprised for a moment.

Hearing that this person was her cousin and brought a portrait, it seemed that the Fourth Master's wife came prepared.

"Then bring it in and have a look." After saying this, Concubine De picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Fu Jin went out and brought in the portrait, opened it in front of Concubine De, and Nanny Yu took it and handed it to Concubine De.

"Mother, take a look."

Concubine De put down her teacup, took the portrait and looked at the person in it carefully.

Tsk, she is really good-looking, looks delicate and weak, and her eyes are very lively. Although she is not as beautiful as Mianmian, this woman is also a top beauty.

Nanny Yu also sighed that the Fourth Lady was really good at choosing people. Both her appearance and figure were very good.

Especially since her butt is quite big, she must be able to give birth to a son.

"What do you think, mother?"

The Fourth Lady saw that her mother seemed to have some liking for her, so she asked.

"She does look good, but we'll have to wait and see what her personality is like." Concubine De placed the portrait on the table.

"Please leave this portrait with me for now. There is still some time before the selection, and I will take a good look at it." There was a faint smile on Concubine De's face, but it did not reach her eyes.

"That's as it should be. It doesn't matter if Mother finds any flaws in her. After all, no one is perfect. Mother naturally has to be cautious when choosing people for the Master."

Although Fu Jin felt a little disappointed that she didn't hear a definite answer, she couldn't have the final say on such a big matter as the talent show.

If she were an ordinary woman, she could still take the initiative to help the master take her into the mansion.

That day, the Fourth Lady stayed with Concubine De until evening before returning.

During this period, she also said a lot of good things about Ma Jia Ruining. Whether it will succeed depends on what her mother chooses.

But she still had a way out. She was very sure that Ma Jia Ruening would definitely be given to the master as a princess.

If Ma Jia Ruining came into the mansion, then if she got pregnant and gave birth to a child, she could take the child in and raise him or her from childhood to adulthood. Would she still be afraid that the child would not be close to her?

After the Fourth Lady left, Concubine De took out the painting and opened it again. She looked at Nanny Yu and asked, "Madam, what do you think of the woman in this painting?"

Nanny Yu stood beside Concubine De and also glanced at the woman in the painting.

With a smile on his face, he said, "I think the woman in this painting is quite good-looking, with outstanding temperament and gentleness. The most important thing is that she has a big butt. She will definitely give the Fourth Prince a few more little princes and princesses in the future."

"Wen Concubine was like this before. Look, she has given the Empress three grandchildren all at once."

"Although the Fourth Lady is sometimes too eager for quick success, she is still the Fourth Lady after all, so we should give her some respect."

When Concubine De heard what Yu Ma said, she laughed, "Haha, you do have a point, but I don't want too many people to enter the Fourth Master's mansion."

"Let's wait and see. When they come to the palace to learn the rules, you should send people to keep an eye on them. The portraits only show their appearance, but not their true nature. The Fourth Lady is very cunning."

"Although the person she recommended is not bad, she definitely has some ulterior motive. Let's wait and see."

Concubine De is not stupid. No matter how good-looking a person is, she still needs to be investigated thoroughly.

The reason why the Fourth Lady wanted to bring a relative into the house was because she wanted to have a child through her belly so that she could adopt the child and raise him in her own care.

Do you really think she is too old to think? This kind of thing is common in the palace.

The fourth prince's wife is unable to have children, and the eldest prince is in poor health. They must be worried when they see Mianmian having several children.

If you want to adopt a healthy child, you have to find someone you trust.

Except for Mianmian, the fourth prince dislikes all the people in his mansion, so Fu Jin sets her sights on this selection.

Just like she specifically recommended Ma Jia Ruening, anyone who is not stupid can figure out the key to her thinking.

"Yes, I will send someone to take a good look at it when the time comes."

"Put this painting away and take a walk with me. It's really boring staying in the palace."

Defei stood up. Nanny Yu asked someone to put the painting away and then helped Defei to take a walk in the imperial garden.

After distributing food and other things to the victims, the Fourth Master planned to stay here for a while. This flood caused many people to be displaced, and many people also died in this disaster.

The local authorities in each county had several shelters set up in the county for the disaster victims to temporarily rest.

However, there are too many victims, and even if there are many shelters, they cannot accommodate all of them.

So the elderly, the weak, women and children are allowed to move in first.

Fortunately, the weather is not cold now, otherwise I would have to buy quilts and cotton clothes for everyone.

You know, adding these expenses will be huge.

But they don't know that the hot weather will bring greater disaster to them all.

The Fourth Master is reading the letters sent from the capital. The last time the grain was burned, it must have been intentional.

After seeing the contents of the letter, just as he had guessed, the Fourth Master's eyes suddenly became sharp. His uncle was really great.

He would do this for a woman.

My uncle thought that if he killed all those people, he would not be able to find out the truth. He was really naive.

No one else knows, but he actually trained a team of secret guards.

The royal family does not allow the private training of secret guards, otherwise it will be considered as treason if discovered.

Even Su Peisheng didn't know about this secret guard.

He was trained from the beginning to gather intelligence, and he would not use this secret guard unless it was an emergency.
