Chapter 619 - Chapter 619: Bloodshed
Chapter 619: Bloodshed
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
No matter how the situation developed, Yu Youyao was still a victim.
The Duke Rong’s Residence had done something dirty and was in the wrong, so they would not dare to slander her.
Consort Xu cared about the Third Prince’s reputation and wanted to settle the matter, so she would not dare to do anything to her.
The Princess Consort of Duke Rongs Residence felt suffocated.
The old princess continued, “Once the ugly matter of ruining someone’s reputation is exposed, not only will it damage the face of the royal family, but the reputation of the royal family will also be ruined. The person who wants to settle the matter the most and not make a fuss is Consort Xu.” At this point, she stared at the princess consort of Rong Prefecture with her turbid eyes. “In order to appease the Yu Residence’s anger, Consort Xu will only push all the blame to Duke Rong’s Residence.”
The Princess Consort of Duke Rong’s Residences lips trembled.
The old princess consort looked exhausted. “If you take the initiative to apologize to the Empress Dowager, she might still care about the face of the imperial family. If Consort Xu takes the initiative to jump out and denounce you, you will have to suffer the anger of the Empress Dowager, the Yu Residence, and Consort Xu.”
She closed her eyes. What a smart girl. When it came to scheming, she was really ruthless.
The Princess Consort of Duke Rong’s Residence crawled on the ground and cried.
The old princess consort sighed softly. “I suddenly remembered that three years ago, at the Flower Festival in the Marquis of Changxing’s Residence,
Seventh Miss Cao wanted to ruin Yu Youyao’s reputation. In the end, it was Seventh Miss Cao whose reputation was completely ruined. It was the Marquis of Changxing’s wife who lost all her dignity, and it was also the Marquis of Changxing!s Residence who lost all their reputation. Everyone said that the Marquis of Changxing’s Residence had reaped the consequences of their own actions. Now, isn’t the situation in the Duke Rong’s Residence also reaping the consequences of their own actions?
From this, it was obvious that Yu Youyao was really not to be trifled with.
Yongning Palace
Consort Xu was lying on her side on the chaise longue. Her snow-white skin was smooth, and her peach lips were pink. Her peach blossom eyes were misty, and her eyebrows were slightly raised, exuding an unapproachable coldness. She was wearing a snow satin tube dress. The thin and soft material of the dress outlined her delicate figure vividly.
The main palace maid who was serving her was kneeling in front of her and helping her paint her nails. The red Phoenix G.o.ddess Flower nail polish was applied to her sharp nails, and her jade fingers were beautiful and charming.
Imperial Consort Xu’s voice was gentle. “How long has Rui’er been out of the palace?
Auntie Ye looked at the side and said, “It’s been more than two hours.”
Consort Xu frowned. “It’s been so long, but there’s still no news from outside the palace?
Auntie Ye shook her head. “It will take at least an hour to come and go. The news from outside the palace won’t be sent in so quickly. Consort, don’t be anxious. I’ll get someone to investigate.”
Imperial Consort Xu rubbed the s.p.a.ce between her eyebrows. “I don’t know why, but after Rui’er left the palace, my left eye twitched.”
“The twitching in your left eye is a good sign. Empress, don’t worry. Your wish will definitely come true.” After painting her nails, Auntie Ye took a leaf and gently tied up her nails.
The Phoenix G.o.ddess Flower nail polish had to be applied three times. Every time she finished applying the first layer, she had to apply the second layer every night. It would take three days.
Her left eye and eyebrow seemed to be the same. Imperial Consort Xu relaxed her eyebrows. “I heard that Yu Youyao took over Madam Xie’s dowry business early in the morning. She’s been managing it very well in the past few years. Old Madam Yu even transferred most of the businesses under her name to Yu Youyao. Every quarter, merchant s.h.i.+ps enter the capital from the Xie
Residence. The rare things from overseas are extremely valued by others. Yu Youyao can’t even fit them in the storeroom, so she used them to reward the servants.” At this point, she couldn’t help but smile. “My left eye might have twitched because of this fortune that is coming.”
Auntie Ye smiled and said, “It’s all because you have good taste.”
Imperial Consort Xu sighed slightly. “There are expenses everywhere in the palace. How much money do I have? It’s not even enough for a box of brow powder from the Western Region.”
“The Xu Residence is also a big family, but their expenses are also high. Just showing them filial piety takes up all my allowances in the palace. I can’t do anything else.”
Auntie Ye narrowed her eyes. The “anything else” that the n.o.ble Consort was talking about referred to compet.i.tion for the position of heir.
Concubine Lu had been in charge of the harem for many years, and the
Imperial Concubine had just taken over the phoenix seal. If she wanted to manage her connections in a short period of time, she needed a large sum of money.
Although Concubine Lu had been sent to the cold palace, the Second Prince was the head and was deeply trusted by the emperor. Recently, the emperor had become more and more obsessed with alchemy and often summoned the Second Prince to the imperial study to help with the court affairs. There were many people in the court who supported the Second Prince.
Money talks. The n.o.ble Consort wanted to win people’s hearts. Fame and fortune would come later. Money was the benefit that was obvious.
Imperial Consort Xu continued, “The emperor wants to refine pills, build a training hall, and wors.h.i.+p sorcerers. Which one of them doesn’t require money?
The emperor trusted the Second Prince because the eldest son of the Empress had died at an early age. The eldest son of the first wife was different from other children. There were high hopes for him.
After the Second Prince was born, the emperor placed all his hopes and expectations on him.
However, no matter how important the Second Prince was, could he be more important than “immortality”?
After Rui’er married Yu Youyao as his secondary consort, all the businesses under Yu Youyao’s name would belong to Rui’er. Not only that, but the Xie family’s connections could also allow Rui’er to have endless wealth. At that time, he could help the emperor hire a Daoist master and build a training hall. It could also let the emperor know who was the most filial son.
Consort Xu continued, “After April, different degrees of drought were reported to the palace from all over the world. The emperor ordered officials from all over the world to do their best to help the refugees, but the treasury was empty. Unless it was absolutely necessary, the Imperial Court would not allocate money to disaster relief. If the Imperial Court did not allocate money, which official from all over the world would do their best to help?”
When it came to court affairs, Auntie Ye did not dare to speak.
Fortunately, Consort Xu did not plan to let her talk. She revealed a sympathetic expression. “The rice was already planted at the wrong time.
Drought-resistant crops also need rain to be harvested. In the second half of the year, the disasters everywhere will become more and more serious. I wonder how many people will die.”
If anyone else heard this, they would think that Imperial Consort Xu cared about the world and pitied the people.
However, Consort Xu changed the topic. “Once the calamity erupts, everything is useless. Only money is the most useful. This is the best time for Rui’er to acc.u.mulate fame.”
With money, there would be an endless supply of food. Everything was logical. Now, everything was ready. They only needed Yu Youyao.
After Auntie Ye wrapped the Imperial Concubine’s nails, she smiled and said,
“Don’t worry, Imperial Consort. Third Prince’s status is n.o.ble. It’s Eldest Miss Yu’s blessing that you like her. When Eldest Miss Yu sees Third Prince, the matter will be settled.”
Consort Xu frowned. “Although that’s the case, Old Madam Yu is a fierce person. Eldest Miss Yu has been raised by Old Madam Yu since she was young.. I’m worried that Eldest Miss Yu will take this matter to heart…
