Squeak—
The door opened and closed again, and Su Peisheng looked behind him with a look of fear on his face, his heart pounding.
Phew, that was really scary. So this is what it means for the master to get angry. I've seen it all. I'd better watch my step in the future and never provoke the master's displeasure.
Su Peisheng, a servant who had been assigned to take care of Yinzhen since childhood, knew Yinzhen's personality all too well. He was a petty, vengeful, and vindictive person.
Therefore, for the sake of his own life, Su Peisheng must be extremely cautious in all his affairs, otherwise, if he suffers, there will be no way to save him.
Muttering to himself, Su Peisheng looked up at the trembling eunuchs around him and was instantly enraged. "Idiots! A bunch of clueless fools! They deserve to be lowly servants!"
"Go, go, go. What are you still standing here for?" Su Peisheng said irritably, then waved his hand and beckoned a clever-looking eunuch. "Take some men and take all those monthly allowances to Granny Wu's storeroom for registration."
As for what just happened in the room, do you know what you should and shouldn't say?
"Don't talk too much, or we won't be able to save you."
Finally, he warned the eunuch not to spread rumors, his eyes filled with malice, which frightened the little eunuch into nodding repeatedly.
After the eunuch and his men left, Su Peisheng looked at the empty courtyard and sighed inwardly at the hardships of life.
Tsk tsk tsk, the Imperial Household Department is targeting its own master, so it must be acting under the orders of others.
Apart from the one in Jingren Palace, no one else in the inner palace has the authority to instruct the Imperial Household Department.
Oh dear, in the end, it was the mess created by that person at the summer palace that ultimately led to the downfall of their own master, leaving them no choice but to accept their fate and bad luck.
This is truly a terrible mother; not only did she not enjoy any blessings, but she also had to pay off her mother's debts.
My master is truly pitiful.
Su Peisheng's inner thoughts were all too familiar to Yinzhen, who was still inside the room.
It can be said that everyone in the harem, including Emperor Kangxi, was fully aware of everything that Yinzhen had encountered in the past few years.
Unfortunately, no one stepped forward to help, not even his biological father, Emperor Kangxi. They all turned a blind eye to Yinzhen's plight, as if Yinzhen had never suffered any injustice.
Yinzhen was not raised by his birth mother from a young age, so he believed that he was more cautious and deliberate than his other brothers.
Yinzhen's current pitiful situation can be said to be something he deliberately created, because being physically bullied every day is better than actually losing his life.

Yinzhen neatly put away the paper covered with the word "patience" and exhaled a breath of stale air.
The fury he had just displayed was no longer visible on his face. Yinzhen's eyes were deep and his expression was calm. He was like a sharp sword that had been sheathed, its edge concealed by the presence of its sheath.
He had no one to rely on in the harem; he only truly trusted himself. Since that was the case, he should keep a low profile and lie low. Let others seek revenge; as long as he didn't cause trouble, they wouldn't be able to leave him no way out.
Time is passing too slowly. I am only ten years old now. It will be at least ten years before I leave the palace and establish my own residence. I can no longer rely on the summer palace. And there is my eleventh brother in the Shou Kang Palace. I am really in a dilemma.
There was no moment when Yinzhen was more dissatisfied with Consort De. Why did she have to do that at the summer palace? It has brought misfortune upon her and her son ever since.
...
The harem was populated by many people, and different news would emerge every day.
Most of these people had nothing to do with Xiuning's lineage, so Xiuning just stood by and watched the show.
However, as the Empress Dowager's health deteriorated, Ning Chuge's previously arranged marriage was dragged into the mess.
In mid-October, the Empress Dowager issued an edict at the Cining Palace, not only gifting Ning Chuge a great deal of gold and silver jewelry, but also specially bypassing Chunxi and granting Ning Chuge the rank of princess ahead of schedule.
Originally, this task should have been done by Emperor Kangxi, the princess's biological father, before her marriage, but now it has been included in the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager.
"Princess Gulun? To bestow this title upon Ning Chuge as the Empress's legitimate daughter, the Empress Dowager is truly generous."
The Yi Consort sisters, who also had princesses by their side, were gossiping in Yikun Palace.
"Princess Ningchuge's husband is a Khorchin Taiji, who is also related to the Empress Dowager by blood."
After speaking, Consort Guoluo shook her head. In her opinion, marrying into Mongolia would do more harm than good.
Her body was damaged during the birth of the young prince, so much so that Consort Guoluo had to take medicine year-round and rest in bed every spring and winter.
Such damage to the foundation also changed the originally calm temperament of Consort Guo Luoluo.
Faced with her only daughter, Consort Guoluo would never want her to marry into the harsh and cold land of Mongolia. Therefore, when she heard the imperial edict issued by the Empress Dowager, although she felt envious, she was not jealous.
If the title of Princess Gulun meant her Kejing would have to be exchanged for marrying into Mongolia, she would rather give it up.
Unfortunately, Consort Guoluo's thoughts are merely wishful thinking. The Emperor has issued an edict, which no mere concubine can resist. All princesses will be sent to marry foreign rulers, and as a princess, how could Kejing possibly escape?
"Sister, you don't need to worry, Kejing will definitely stay in the Qing Dynasty."
A dark glint flashed in Consort Yi's eyes. Ever since Consort Guoluo finished her confinement period, she had felt guilty.
The death of the young prince not only affected Consort Guo Luoluo, but also changed Consort Yi's mindset.
While the two sisters may not be getting along as well as before, there is indeed a rift between them, though they are both aware of it and cannot bring it up.
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Kejing is still young. It will be several years before her marriage is settled."
We are not Consort Jing or Princess Ningchuge; it's simply a matter of fate.
Consort Guoluo didn't know if Consort Jing and her daughter were truly willing to marry into Mongolia. Although Consort Jing seemed to have a strong desire to marry into Mongolia based on her previous behavior, she was a clever woman and it was not impossible for her to be hypocritical.
Now that everything has settled down, it's only natural for Consort Jing and her daughter to try their best to gain advantages for themselves.
Compared to Consort Jing and her daughter, Yikun Palace still has a chance, so I can continue to check on the situation of the two princesses ahead of me.
Although Chunxi was an adopted daughter, she had been in the harem for many years and held a high position. Ning Chuge, on the other hand, was the biological daughter of Consort Jing and was raised by the Empress Dowager. To a large extent, Kejing would not receive the same level of attention as them in the future.
As long as one is human, one will be limited by one's own identity and bloodline. Even if they are all sons and grandsons of dragons, they will still be divided into different classes based on external conditions, each representing different weight.
