Chapter 66: The Imperial Concubine's Plan
The imperial concubine immediately asked: "What's the solution? Tell me quickly."
Mammy smiled and said: "Actually, the Wang family was in decline a while ago, but after some advice from an expert, they turned around overnight. Not only did they pay off their debts, but they also made a lot of money. Does your Majesty know this?"
The imperial concubine said: "I know this matter, and it is not because the Xue family has done anything to suppress it and wants to suppress the Wang family!"
Grandma nodded and said, "But this was not done by Xue Li."
"Oh? Who is that?" the imperial concubine asked in surprise.
Mammy said: "This matter was caused by Aunt Xue Lijiu. She wanted to suppress the Wang family and make the Wang family decline. At that time, Wang Xueru and Xue Rou'er basically did not show up and were not favored masters.
She thought that if the Wang family declined, the position of the eldest lady would be shaken. Xue Li was a businessman who was unprofitable and could not afford to be early. Seeing the decline of the Wang family, she would think of divorcing his wife, and then she would be able to take over the position of the head wife in one fell swoop.
It's a pity that her wishful thinking didn't come true. Not only did she lose a lot of money but she still couldn't bring down the Wang family, she was also very frustrated."
The imperial concubine said: "What do you think this has to do with your method?"
Mammy smiled and said: "Look at how anxious the queen is. In fact, the expert who saved the Wang family is Xue Rou'er. She has a flexible mind and exquisite methods. In time, she will be the richest man in the capital."
The imperial concubine sat up straight and said, "It's actually her? This mute woman actually changed her gender overnight. Was she just pretending before?"
Mammy said: "In the past few days in the Xue family, my servants have made it clear that Xue Rou'er was indeed weak and unable to speak. However, a major event happened in the Xue family, and this incident involved two lives. From then on, Xue Rou'er
Changed character."
The imperial concubine said anxiously: "Speak quickly."
Mammy nodded and said: "One day, Yin Jiufeng set up a scheme to kill Xue Rou'er. She bribed the maids and the long-term workers in the house and insisted that Xue Rou'er and the long-term workers were having sex. As a result, Xue Li was furious and beat her half to death.
Later, when she was imprisoned in the woodshed, thunder from the sky burned down the Xue family ancestral hall. From that day on, there were rumors that the ancestors of the Xue family had manifested their spirits when they saw their legitimate daughter being bullied, and that was why Xue Rouer's transformation happened.
.
Now that I think about it, it's really weird. If her Xue family ancestors hadn't shown their spiritual power, how could that dull mute girl turn into a human spirit?"
The imperial concubine frowned and said: "So there is still such a thing. It seems that my eyes and ears are too short-sighted."
Mammy smiled and said: "If the empress can follow Xue Rou'er's wishes and not let her get married for a short time, then she will have time to accumulate wealth. When she becomes rich, you will be kind and powerful. Are you still afraid that she won't help you?"
The sorrow on the imperial concubine's face did not disappear: "Mommy, I don't know how long I have to give her. The emperor's health is good and bad, the position of the prince is hanging, and I don't know whether the baby in my belly is a boy or a girl.
, it’s really all kinds of worries.”
Mammy said: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether the child in your belly is a boy or a girl. Even if the child is a boy, he cannot become a prince. Even if the emperor loves you and really makes the child a prince, can you guarantee that he will grow up safely?"
The imperial concubine trembled and said, "I don't care about the position of the prince. I just want this child to grow up safely."
Mammy nodded and said: "That's right. You can only think about your future now and let them go with those unnecessary fights. You are only two months pregnant and there are still eight months to go before the baby is born.
You won't enter college until you are three years old, so you still have more than three years to plan.
As long as you don't provoke the queen, you and your son can still be safe. But according to Yi Nu, Xue Rou'er won't need that long. I'm afraid she will be able to achieve some success in a year and a half.
So you'd better make up your mind as soon as possible, if she marries the prince, you will have no way out."
The imperial concubine said: "I want to marry her to the prince just to find a way out for myself and my children. Why do you still say there is no way out?"
The vicissitudes of life appeared on Mammy's face: "I'm sorry to say this. I've been in the palace much longer than you. What haven't you seen? You want to find a prince as a backer so that there will be a way out for the emperor's death in the future.
But have you ever thought about it? Which person who can sit in that position is not ruthless? Will he treat you mother and son sincerely? When his foundation is solid, I am afraid he will have to eliminate all threats.
And... Xue Rou'er has no intention of marrying the prince. If you force her to do so, she will probably hate you in her heart. Don't even think about retreating, she is afraid that she will face a dead end."
The imperial concubine took a breath of air. After years of experience in the palace, she was not smart enough. She was not even as good as a palace maid. She did not have the long-term vision!
Auntie said: "I have said what I have to say. Please think about it yourself."
The imperial concubine waved her hands feebly and said: "Mom, go and have a rest. I really need to think about it carefully."
Grandma nodded, stood up and walked out of the hall.
She looked at the sky and thought to herself: "Xue Rou'er, I can only help you up to this point."
But Xue Rou'er, who was busy in the small dining room, didn't know that the mammy had already shaken the heart of the imperial concubine, but she still had one more reason not to marry before she could leave the palace safely.
The eldest princess was full of praise after eating the vegetarian dishes made by Xue Rouer. After she was full, she put down her chopsticks and her grandma happened to walk in.
"Mommy, this girl's skills are much better than the imperial cook. If she hadn't been the legitimate daughter of the Xue family, I would have really wanted to hire her as a cook." The eldest princess said with a smile.
Mammy was stunned for a moment, rolled her eyes, and said: "Since the eldest princess likes it, why not take her in as a foster daughter, so that she can always come to serve you!"
The eldest princess narrowed her eyes, wondering what she was thinking in her heart.
Mammy asked tentatively: "The eldest princess is thinking about the emperor?"
The eldest princess did not hide her thoughts and nodded: "Yes, you also know my past. The emperor and I have a deep grudge. How can he treat the person I like?"
Mammy smiled and said: "Xue Rou'er is lucky to be able to serve the eldest princess. A child from a merchant family can become the adopted daughter of the eldest princess. It is because their Xue family ancestors are virtuous. Besides, what does it matter whether the emperor wants to see her? Is it difficult?
Could it be that she still wants to be the princess?"
Xue Rou'er was confused when she heard this. Their expressions didn't look like they were acting, but it could be heard from their conversation that the emperor didn't like the eldest princess, and he would even hate the people the eldest princess liked... Xue Rou'er's brain
As soon as the inspiration came to me, I began to worry about it. I felt that I had to give it a try. If I won, I would be able to leave the palace safely. If I couldn't win... If I couldn't win, I would just think of a solution.
Thinking of this, she walked slowly to the eldest princess, knelt down in front of her with her knees bent, kowtowed three times, then raised her head and said with a smile: "Xue Rou'er, a civilian girl, kowtows to her adoptive mother!"
