The Fifth and Ninth Prince's wives spoke up to smooth things over because they were both daughters-in-law of Consort Yi, who came from the Guo Luo Luo clan. Although the Eighth Prince's wife married into the Prince An's household, she was still surnamed Guo Luo Luo.
Besides, Ninth Master has always been close to Eighth Master.
They didn't have the same confidence as their sister-in-law, who could turn on them so easily. However, they were also surprised. Their sister-in-law was always gentle and never raised her voice to anyone. Why was she acting like she was on fire today?
Could it be that he's in a bad mood because today is the full-month celebration for the children of his two concubines?
If they can't figure it out, they shouldn't think about it anymore. They should just go back and tell the master about it. The rest is none of their business.
I heard that another batch of servants were executed in Yuqing Palace. Ever since Songgotu died in the 42nd year of Kangxi's reign, the Crown Prince's temper has become increasingly volatile. Last year, he even made the Third Prince kneel down and whipped some ministers.
They were all out of favor, so it was better for them to be obedient. Actually, Ninth Prince's wife was doing alright. Although there were many women in Ninth Prince's household, Ninth Prince was not actually lustful and never showed favoritism to any of them, nor did he bring in a concubine to annoy him.
He gave the Ninth Prince Consort plenty of face in the mansion, and she was never short of money. He handed over the management of the backyard to her and never interfered, so the Ninth Prince Consort lived a relatively comfortable life.
In truth, Ninth Prince Consort knew perfectly well that the prince didn't take any of the women in the harem, including himself, the primary consort, seriously.
Ninth Master is the kind of person who treats women like clothes and brothers like limbs.
Ever since the concubines in Ninth Master's mansion who made mistakes were personally sold to the Red Chamber by him, the women in Ninth Master's mansion have all become more obedient. They don't want to end up like that. Moreover, after Ninth Master gave away his concubines several times later, they became even more obedient.
Occasionally there would be a troublemaker, but they would be quickly eliminated, so Ninth Princess Consort was relatively comfortable in the mansion, except for being pressured by Consort Yi to give birth.
After the banquet, Yinzhi also heard about his wife's remarkable feat at the banquet.
The Princess Consort is usually gentle and rarely gets into disputes with others. Why is she acting like this today? I need to ask her about it when we get back.
Yes, that's sharp. What He Zhuo said could be considered a public reprimand of the Eighth Prince's wife.
On the one hand, it said that she was infertile and jealous and intolerant; on the other hand, it was an open accusation that the Eighth Prince's wife disowned her ancestors. Filial piety is the most important virtue, and this was a serious crime.
Even the daughter of an ordinary minor official, if labeled as disowning her ancestors, would likely be divorced by her husband's family, let alone the royal family, which is known for its strict etiquette and rules.
The First Princess's words clearly indicated that she was about to break off relations with the Eighth Princess.
Actually, everyone knows about the affair involving the Eighth Prince's wife, Prince An, and Lady Guoluo.
However, Ming Shang's death was caused by Prince An, so it is understandable that the Guo Luo Luo family would not accept the Eighth Prince's wife.
Moreover, the Prince An's family raised the Eighth Prince's wife under the guise of "Prince An pitied his granddaughter who had lost her parents and took her back to the mansion to raise her and fulfill his filial duty." So, people didn't pay attention to these things for a while. This time, He Zhuo has blatantly torn it open. The Eighth Prince has a wife who disrespects his ancestors. Let's see if you people still want to support him.
This is actually a way of helping Eighth Prince, but Eighth Prince probably won't appreciate it and will even resent He Zhuo, his sister-in-law. However, He Zhuo doesn't care.
"Fujin, why did you treat your eighth brother's wife so badly at the banquet today?" Yinzhi asked, holding Hezhuo's hand.
After they finished washing up, they lay down on the bed.
