No, I was just a concubine, how did I become the queen?

Chapter 425: Can Adapt

"Master, don't worry. In the officialdom, as long as you have enough money, no one will say anything bad about you," Guo Luoluo began to distribute money.

She struggled to get up, took out a stack of banknotes from the secret compartment inside the carved bed and handed it to the Eighth Master.

Mr. Ba was shocked for a moment, stretched out his hand and then put it down, refusing: "I... I can't accept it..."

Seeing his guilty look, Guo Luoluo said firmly, "Keep it!"

"I finally understand. Even if a dragon has nine sons, they all have different destinies."

"The prince was born with everything, but he has no mercy on his brothers and sisters. We can only let him bully us."

"The first two children were just lessons for me. I hope my next child will be born in a good time..."

Guo Luoluo stared at the Eighth Master with her sparkling eyes, her ambition almost overflowing.

The Eighth Master has always wanted to show himself and gain a higher status and more political capital.

Just like the emperor's two brothers, they became powerful princes of the Qing Dynasty.

But he had too many brothers, and it was impossible for the prince to use so many of them after he came to power.

That's why he fights so hard, tries to show himself, and hopes to climb up.

Now, Guo Luoluo's words reminded him.

The prince is totally unreliable.

So, can't he just try harder for himself?

They are both sons of the emperor, so why do some people have everything by birth while others try their best but still end up in the dust?

Then he thought, since his eldest brother had made so many great military achievements and was the oldest, he must have had such an idea a long time ago.

What about the third brother?

He immersed himself in editing books and getting along well with Han officials. Wasn't he really trying to gain their recognition and support?

Where is fourth brother?

He has outstanding achievements and no one can find fault with him. Does he really not have any ideas?

But he treats everyone coldly, doesn't care about the opinions of his colleagues, and firmly supports the prince. Is all this a deception?

Mr. Ba couldn't figure it out, but he knew that his heart had come back to life.

He took the banknote from Guo Luoluo's hand and said softly, "Don't worry, Yue'er, I will never let you down."

The couple looked at each other and saw inflated ambition in each other's eyes.

Guo Luoluo put the pain she had just experienced behind her. This time, she would absolutely trust the Eighth Master and rise to a high position with him!

Mr. Ba leaned over, and the two of them became intimate again.

Finally, the smell of blood reminded the couple that it was a bit inconvenient to do this, so they gave up.

Lin Mingyan was originally waiting for news about Yinzhan, to see whether the Eighth Master and his wife had become enemies, and whether Guo Luoluo was going to make the Eighth Master kneel on the washboard.

Unexpectedly, the two of them became harmonious and happy right away. Guo Luoluo even ignored her health and went to the palace to admit her mistake within two days, saying that she had made a mistake.

The reputation of the Eighth Master was restored, but the reputation of Guo Luoluo was completely ruined.

She is jealous and intolerant, and not only does she control the Eighth Master's mansion and doesn't allow anyone to enter.

Because of a tiny bit of groundless rumors, he would disregard the prince's reputation and go out to catch the adulterer.

This was beyond Emperor Kangxi's control. He called Concubine Hui over, scolded her, and ordered her: "Next time you select a concubine for Prince Eight, she should be from a good family and have good abilities. If you can't do a good job again, you will be dismissed from the management of the palace!"

Concubine Hui: ...No, what does this have to do with me?!

The four concubines were all in charge of some palace affairs, but she happened to be in charge of part of the selection matters in Chuxiu Palace. This was simply an unprovoked disaster.

After all, the marriage between the Eighth Prince and Guo Luoluo was arranged by Emperor Kangxi himself and had nothing to do with Concubine Hui.

As for the issue of concubines, princesses, and concubines, that is also a matter of concern to their biological mothers.

If the other party doesn't want it, she can't rush to give it to him!

After Huifei finished her meal, she returned to the palace and summoned Wei. In a bad mood, she gave her a task: "Sister Wei, please look carefully and find a good candidate for our Eighth Prince."

"The Emperor has already promised that he will appoint a good concubine for the Eighth Prince in the next year's selection."

Considering the recent events, Wei's face turned red as if it was dripping with blood.

She quickly apologized: "Guo Luoluo was just a bit naughty, please don't be angry, Concubine Hui."

"I'm not angry, but he is the Emperor's biological son after all. Where is the royal family's reputation if he is ridden on and shitted on by his wife?" Concubine Hui was also angry.

She also urged him, "You are now a concubine after all. Maybe one day you will be promoted to a concubine in the harem. You should stand up in front of your wife."

"I heard that you were going to give her away that day, but she refused?"

"If you were a little more assertive, with Madam Wu watching, she wouldn't have done such a foolish thing."

"That way, the child can be saved, and Old Eight's reputation can be preserved."

"Sometimes children don't think things through very well. It's all thanks to us mothers that we've all returned."

"Think about it, isn't that the truth?"

Wei was speechless after being rebuked by Concubine Hui, and she felt like she was stabbed in the heart, so she could only nod and agree.

However, Concubine Hui's words also woke her up.

Since he just blindly supported Guo Luoluo, Lao Ba's situation did not improve at all.

It would be better to take advantage of the Emperor's permission to find a concubine of noble birth for the Eighth Prince.

It’s a good thing that two people are competing to be nice to Lao Ba!

Wei was a timid and cowardly person, but not an honest one.

The truly honest people in the harem will not live more than two years and will die.

In the past, she had been very tolerant towards Guo Luoluo for the sake of Prince An's Mansion.

He was also afraid of giving Emperor Kangxi a bad impression of greed, so he never made any requests on behalf of the Eighth Prince.

Now that Emperor Kangxi had spoken, she took the opportunity to start looking for a good candidate for concubine.

She also called the Eighth Master into the palace and asked him about his preferences: "Old Eighth Master, if you have something you like, you can also let Mother know first."

"The wife is bestowed by His Majesty, there is no choice. For a concubine, besides family background and appearance, one must also choose a suitable personality."

Of course she knew her son well and knew that he would not like someone with Guo Luoluo's personality.

But the marriage has already been granted, so there is nothing I can do but coax her.

This time, she was in charge, and of course she had to put her son's preferences first.

Mr. Ba was really stumped by her question. What kind of thing does he like?

He had never thought about this question.

Regardless of whether it is a man or a woman, he likes what is useful.

No matter what the personality is, he can adapt to it.

Moreover, he never takes other people's temper to heart, so there is no possibility of him getting angry over a woman's little temper.

As for the future concubine, as long as her family background and appearance are decent, nothing else matters.

After all, even someone as popular as Guo Luoluo, shouldn't we listen to him?
