Chapter 114 The Fifth Lady in the Story of Zhen Huan's Childbirth 13
Judging from the attitudes of these royal princes and the series of measures they are planning to implement, this time, such humiliating things as in history should not happen again.
This is all I can do for now, and I can only do it step by step.
If only she were a man, she could do so much more.
Now she is just a widow and can only be locked up in this palace.
It would be fine to wait until I can leave the palace and build my own house, at least I can have more freedom.
Jingshu continued to study music, chess, calligraphy and painting diligently, and also watched the two sisters Ulanara quarreling.
Watching the TV series, it seems like Yixiu could easily drug Rouze, but in fact, it is not that simple!
The small kitchen was full of Defei's people, and Yixiu was completely isolated and helpless at this time.
Although Concubine De has now been demoted to Noble Lady De and the palace has lost a number of manpower, there are still some servants who were previously assigned to the Fourth Master's mansion, and they still obey Concubine De's orders.
However, Yixiu was also capable. She bribed and controlled the family members, and finally made several of them become her people. Only then did she start to give Rouze cold and fetal-harming things.
Jingshu didn't want to watch it anymore after a few days. The events that happened later were the same as the original plot, with no changes at all.
What's more, the current Yinzhen himself thinks that he is no longer the original Yinzhen.
He had no interest in Yinzhen's original backyard.
Every day I work diligently to complete the tasks assigned by Kangxi. I am too busy to have time to go to the backyard.
It seemed that Tara Suyun did not want to ruin the original plot, so she waited for the child to be born to prove herself.
Jingshu turned her gaze back to her own house. There was not even a man there. The women were so quiet and lived a peaceful life.
The Qing Dynasty was so boring. Every time I opened my eyes, I saw a small square courtyard.
Bored to death, Jingshu drew a mahjong set and called Suqin over. "Yuqin, go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and ask them to help make a few sets. Give them more money!"
Yuqin looked at the thing in her hand. It was almost the same as the cards in mahjong. She didn't ask any more questions. Since Fu Jin wanted it, she would just go and help run errands. Otherwise, it would be boring to stay in the prince's residence.
After waiting for a few days, the things were ready, and Jingshu quickly took the mahjong to find Concubine Yi.
Before you want to play, you must first respect your elders. Only after your elders have played can you start playing so that you won’t be scolded by your elders.
"Mother, your daughter-in-law thought of a game to pass the time.
Considering that my mother has lived in the palace for such a long time and is usually alone in the palace, I imagine she would get bored sometimes.
I just made this yesterday and brought it to my mother today as a gift.
If you are bored, you can use it to kill time!"
Concubine Yi also showed her support, "Open it and let me see what kind of rare thing it is that makes you rush here to offer it as a treasure.
Jingshu opened the mahjong set swiftly. The one made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs was so exquisite, made entirely of jade.
If it is truly a royal product, it must be a top quality product!
Jingshu called Concubine Yi's personal maid over, and together with herself and Concubine Yi, there were just four of them. She explained the rules while they played.
After playing a few times, Concubine Yi couldn't help but praise it, "You know what, this thing is quite interesting! I'm bored in Yikun Palace every day, and now it's a good thing, it can be used to kill time."
She turned around and called another palace maid, "Lamei, hurry to the Imperial Household Department and ask them to make a few more sets.
There are several young concubines in our palace. They have nothing to do all day. Call them all over and we can take turns playing with them.
Once the new mahjong is ready, everyone will have learned it."
Jingshu was no longer as restrained as when she first met Concubine Yi. Although she still couldn't like Concubine Yi, when she thought about how she could get benefits from Concubine Yi, everything else didn't matter.
Coaxing her is like coaxing your boss. Since you can't kill Concubine Yi anyway, you might as well find a way to benefit from her.
"Mother, you really reminded me. When I get back, I will gather the princesses in the backyard together and help them relax."
While rubbing mahjong tiles, Concubine Yi said, "For a person, the most important thing is to empathize with others.
We feel that life is boring, and they must feel the same way.
We are all sisters, and if we understand each other, life will go smoothly."
Jingshu thought that what Concubine Yi said was all bullshit, but she was really trying to flatter herself.
Why didn’t you feel sorry for Jingshu in your previous two lives?
Now you speak better than you sing, and you have become the good guy.
But her face was still full of compliments: "The ladies of Yikun Palace, it is truly a blessing for them to have a master like you, mother."
As they were speaking, the young concubines and maids living in the Yiku Palace came over and paid their respects to Concubine Yi.
After Yi Fei called her out, she said, "This is a new way for the Fifth Lady to play. I know you are usually bored, so you should all follow her and learn it.
Once you learn it, we can try it out.
I have asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make a few more sets. Once they are ready, each of you can take one away.
From now on, you won’t have to do all the needlework in the palace anymore. You can use mahjong to kill time and avoid tiring your eyes from sewing all the time.”
The concubines quickly expressed their gratitude.
Jingshu may have had a bad impression of Concubine Yi from the beginning, and felt that Concubine Yi was spending little money to achieve big things and win people's hearts.
But then again, when it comes to winning people's hearts, it doesn't matter how expensive the item is; the key is to touch their heart.
This move of Concubine Yi can at least gain the gratitude of the two young concubines, so her efforts are not in vain.
Besides, Concubine Yi only said a few words, which really didn't take much effort.
After playing a few rounds, Jingshu found that the little Da Ying next to her had learned it, so she stood up and made way for him, inviting him to play.
"Mother, please continue playing. I'll go to Shoukang Palace and give a copy to the Empress Dowager as well."
Concubine Yi was completely absorbed in playing mahjong. Without even looking up, she waved her hand and said, "Go ahead. If you think of anything fun, remember to send one to Mother as well."
Jingshu quickly agreed and turned to walk towards Shoukang Palace.
When they arrived at Shoukang Palace, they followed the same process as in Yiku Palace.
However, the only people who could play with the Queen Mother were those who came from Mongolia with her.
Who told the Queen Mother to only speak Mongolian?
The Queen Mother directly called all the Mongolian concubines in the palace over. Anyway, they were just killing time. She had something fun to do herself, so of course she couldn't forget these people from Mongolia.
Jingshu played around a few times, taught the person how to do it, and then gave up her seat.
They are all Mongolian people, so she should not interfere here.
After returning to the prince's residence and having lunch, Jingshu leaned on the couch and prepared to take a nap. Before going to bed, she habitually wanted to see if there were any changes in the Fourth Master's mansion. Unexpectedly, she saw something really lively.
