When Rongpin and his entourage arrived at the Imperial Garden, they happened to see Uya arguing with the wet nurse who was holding the Fourth Prince.
The wet nurse was holding the child while dodging Uya, but the other party kept pulling the wet nurse and shouting, "I am your biological mother, I am your biological mother." Rongpin frowned when she heard this.
"The Uya family is becoming more and more disrespectful now."
Rongpin was displeased, and Tinghe beside her asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, should we go and take a look?"
Rongpin was in a bad mood. "Since I have seen it, I must go and take a look. Otherwise, it will not be good if the news gets to the emperor."
What bad luck.
Rongpin walked forward with a sense of resentment, but before she could say anything, she saw Uya turn around and kneel down in front of her.
"I beg Concubine Rong to be kind and let me see the Fourth Prince."
Rongpin was stunned (⊙o⊙)...
What does the tiff between you have to do with me?
What do you mean by asking me for help?
While Rongpin was stunned, Tinghe had already stood in front of her and angrily scolded, "What do you mean by this, Concubine Wuya? Our queen just happened to be passing by and didn't know what happened, and you came up and knelt down to beg without even saying anything clearly. If someone knew, they would think you were asking Rongpin for help, but if someone didn't, they would think our queen had done something to you."
"Besides, what does the matter between you and the Fourth Prince have to do with our Empress? Why do you ask our Empress to do you a favor and make the decision? If you want to see the child, go to Chengqian Palace. Even if you can't enter Chengqian Palace, now that you have seen the Fourth Prince, you can also look at him openly."
"Maybe the wet nurse won't let you hold the baby, but could she cover your eyes and prevent you from seeing the baby?"
After saying this, Uya's face turned pale and her nails had already dug into her flesh.
Rongpin also came back to her senses from her previous daze and kicked Wuya in anger.
"The Fourth Prince is the Imperial Consort's child. You're making such a fuss and arguing, and even asking me to make the decision for you. What are you really thinking?"
Rongpin looked at Tinghe and said, "You and the Fourth Prince go back to Chengqian Palace together. Tell the Imperial Noble Consort everything that happened here. Then go to Yikun Palace and tell Yipin as well. Don't let the matter get distorted by rumors."
Tinghe obeyed the order and went to Chengqian Palace with the Fourth Prince and the wet nurse.
Rongpin looked coldly at Wu Yashi, who was kneeling on the ground with a face full of resentment, and scolded: "No one in the harem is a fool. I advise you to put away those dirty thoughts, otherwise you will end up losing more than you gain."
After saying that, Concubine Rong led her men straight to Chuxiu Palace.
As soon as she sat down, Rongpin told Huifei what had just happened in the imperial garden, and she became more and more angry as she spoke.
"Sister Hui, if it weren't for my palace maid's cleverness, I would have been fooled by that Wu Ya family without even realizing it."
Concubine Hui frowned, "Why is Uya so rude?"
"Rui Xue, take your men to Yikun Palace and watch Wu Ya recite the Palace Rules three times. You are not allowed to eat or rest until you finish."
Ruixue took the order and went forward.
Concubine Hui had the power to assist in the management of the harem, so dealing with Uya was naturally a piece of cake for her.
Rongpin drank a sip of tea to calm herself down and said, "I didn't expect that a mere concubine could be so troublesome."
Concubine Hui was also disdainful.
"In the final analysis, it's because that person didn't know people well enough to let a little palace maid climb into bed. She climbed in, and now she can't be restrained."
Rongpin also shook her head and changed the subject.
"My eldest prince is about to go to Jiangnan. Although he's just going to broaden his horizons, he should also take care of his health. My sister personally sewed a pair of knee pads for me as a token of her appreciation."
Concubine Hui took the knee pad and looked at it carefully. The materials were exquisite and the stitching was fine. It was obvious that a lot of care was put into it.
"My sister is so thoughtful."
"Princess Hui."
The second princess stepped forward and handed over a purse. "This is the purse I made for you, big brother. Inside is a prayer for peace and blessings that I asked my uncle to pray for at the Imperial Temple. May everything be safe and sound on your journey, big brother."
Concubine Hui pulled the second princess over and rubbed her little face.
"Our Rongxian is clever and eloquent, so lovable."
He then called the nanny and brought out ten pieces of flowing brocade.
"Let's make clothes for Rongxian, okay?"
Rongxian looked at his mother in surprise, and when he saw her nod, he bowed politely to express his gratitude.
"My daughter thanks Concubine Hui for the reward."
Rongpin then continued, "Liuguangjin is a precious gift from the emperor. Even my younger sister doesn't have many pieces in stock. Now my elder sister has rewarded her with ten pieces. It's really..."
Concubine Hui waved her hand nonchalantly and said with a smile, "We sisters get along well, so naturally we don't care about such things. What's more, Rongxian is a sensible child. Even I, as his mother, have never thought of praying for his safety and happiness, but little Rongxian has thought of it. Just this thought is enough."
After saying this, she looked at Yinzhi again and said, "I heard that the emperor found a teacher for the third prince a few days ago. This is really the first time."
When this matter was mentioned, Rongpin straightened her back.
In the Qing Dynasty, the princes had always gone to the study room to study when they turned six years old, and there was no precedent for hiring a teacher to study alone.
But the emperor thought Yinzhi was studious, so even though he was only two years old, he still chose a teacher for him.
This is truly unique in the harem.
"Speaking of this, I have to thank His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. If it weren't for His Royal Highness's advice, Yinzhi would probably still be playing around in the palace."
In Chuxiu Palace, the two ladies were chatting very happily, but Chengqian Palace and Yikun Palace seemed to be in chaos.
After listening to Tinghe's words, the Imperial Noble Consort asked Shushu to go to Yiku Palace to slap Uya. Unexpectedly, when she entered, she saw Uya kneeling on the stone steps and reciting the "Palace Rules".
