Chapter 279: Startling by Each Step 9 (16)
Lingrong didn't find it strange at all that Yinzhen could sense that something was wrong with Ruoxi just from one sentence.
You have to believe in the value of Kowloon, the historical story of the fight for the throne.
Although Yinzhen looks rather indifferent now, as if he is just waiting to die, that is just because he does not want to get involved in the vortex of the fight for the throne.
Haven’t you seen that in recent years Yinlang has almost become Kangxi’s favorite son after Yinreng?
He doesn't want to get involved in the fight for the throne, so now he's trying his best to curry favor with his father, and sends a portion of any good health-preserving things his family has to Kangxi and Concubine Yi.
Some people thought that he was just acting on impulse or for show after he did it once or twice, but after so many years, didn’t Kangxi make an exception and confer the title of prince on him alone?
Yinzhen is now a nobody, but that doesn't mean he has lost his political qualities.
How did you say that?
You can mix it up, but you can't really be a sucker.
This is what Yinzhen is like now.
Lingrong planned to wait until Yinzhen had investigated Ruoxi's affairs thoroughly before they could talk about Ruoxi's unusualness. Before that, she didn't think she had any opportunity or necessity to meet with Maertai Ruoxi alone.
But plans are not as good as changes. A few days after the Tenth Prince’s birthday party, Yinzhen came back and said that the Eighth Prince had invited him, Lingrong, the Fifth Prince and his wife, and the Eleventh Prince and his wife to have a small gathering during the next day off.
From the looks of it, it seems like she's here to apologize to them for Ruoxi's rude words last time.
The Eighth Master was so humble that it was difficult for his brothers to not respond.
As for Ruoxi, she also knew that she had made a big mistake at the banquet. First, she was taken to the study by the Eighth Prince and made to stand for several hours, and then Ruolan ignored her coldly. As for the Eighth Prince, she had the help of the Tenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince, so she was able to get away with it.
As for Ruolan, she brought up the past of her original body Ruoxi and played the victim to Ruolan. After some effort, she finally made Ruolan start to pay attention to her again.
Only after coaxing everyone in the mansion into submission did Ruoxi have time to find other people to understand the current situation.
After many inquiries, she finally found out that the venomous snake Lao Jiu in this life had turned into a medical expert! He did not join the Eighth Master's party anymore, and now had the best relationship with the Eleventh Master.
I heard that the Eleventh Master was indeed weak when he was a child. The Emperor and Concubine Yi were even worried that he would not live to adulthood. However, because the Ninth Prince had a weak constitution, not only did he love medicine since he was a child, he also took the Eleventh Master along. After all their efforts, the Eleventh Master's health really got better gradually.
I heard that the Eleventh Master’s fighting power is now as good as the Fourth Master’s.
Ruoxi was stunned by the news from Jiu Ye and his gang. As far as she knew, Lao Jiu should be a businessman, he would be rich enough to rival a country, and would join the camp of Ba Ye. Moreover, although Jiu Fu Jin in history was also Dong E, she did not seem to be favored. It is said that Jiu Fu Jin only had one daughter until her death.
But now?
What did she hear?
Jiu Ye and Jiu Fu Jin actually had a story about a hero saving a beautiful girl when they were young. Not only have they been engaged since childhood, but Jiu Ye's mansion has only Jiu Fu Jin as its mistress. Moreover, Jiu Fu Jin actually has two sons.
This is very different from the news she knew.
Did I really travel through time to the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty?
Why don’t so many of them match?
But except for the slight differences between the Ninth Master and the Eleventh Master, everything else is pretty much the same as what happened in history.
For example, the Tenth Master and the Fourteenth Master are still close to the Eighth Master, and the Thirteenth Master is also very close to the Fourth Master.
Thinking about her own experience, Ruoxi suddenly had a bold guess: Could it be that this Ninth Master or Eleventh Master had changed his mind?
One of them was also a time traveler from the future, just like himself. He knew that following Mr. Ba had no future, so he actively changed his fate?
The more Ruoxi thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. She had also read quite a few novels before, and wasn't this how it was written in many novels?
Before she came here, she was still following the fashion and had read several novels in which the characters traveled through time and space to become the princes of the Qing Dynasty.
However, no matter whether it was the Ninth Master or the Eleventh Master who traveled through time, since he was a time traveler, he should have heard of the name of Emperor Yongzheng even if he was not familiar with history. He should know the direction of the future. He and the future Emperor Yongzheng were still brothers, so why didn't he take the opportunity to befriend the Fourth Master?
As far as he knew, neither the Ninth Master nor the Eleventh Master had a very good relationship with the Fourth Master.
Judging from the information provided by the Tenth Master, the Fourteenth Master, Qiao Hui and others, Ruoxi felt that it was more likely that the Ninth Master was a time traveler like her.
Because the Eleventh Master is the most attached to the Ninth Master, and among all the brothers, except for the Ninth Master, his relationship with other brothers is very average. But the current Ninth Master, except for the Prince of Zhi and the Fourth Master, has a good relationship with other brothers.
When outsiders mention Jiu Ye now, they mention his medical skills, his love for his wife, his filial piety to his elders, and his chivalrous and righteous character.
You have to know that this is the character design of Thirteenth Master. The time traveler must also like Thirteenth Master's personality, so he pirated it himself.
Fortunately, this was Ruoxi's own ventriloquism. If Lingrong had heard it, she would have spit in her face - believing everything in TV dramas and online novels will only harm you! It's obvious that you haven't read much official history. If you search on Baidu, you should know that this is the true character of Lao Jiu in official history!
The chivalrous one has always been the Ninth Prince. After the crown prince was deposed, although the Thirteenth Prince was not really imprisoned in Yangfeng Alley for ten years, he was indeed disliked by Emperor Kangxi during those ten years and was almost a transparent person. How could he be chivalrous when he could barely make a living?
But on second thought, the time before Zhang Xiao traveled through was the early 2000s. At that time, touch-screen mobile phones did not seem to be popular and Internet fees were still very expensive. It was normal for Zhang Xiao to have no money and no time to search on Baidu.
Well, considering her ignorance, let's forgive her.
After Zhang Xiao made a bold guess, he wanted to find an opportunity to verify his guess.
If this was her fellow villager, she thought, she wouldn't be so lonely in this strange world. At least she could talk to her fellow villager often in the future.
Therefore, Zhang Xiao, for the first time in her life, did not make a fuss or object to Mr. Ba's arrangement for her to apologize to Eleven in person at the table.
On the day of the banquet, Lao Ba brought Ruolan and Ruoxi to personally entertain the brothers and sisters-in-law.
Ruoxi happily apologized to Shiyi. Shiyi was weak, and he had heard a lot of people saying that he would not grow up or live long. He had long been desensitized to these words. Moreover, he knew what his physical condition was like, so he didn't care about the unintentional words of a little girl.
After a glass of wine, the matter was left alone.
But Ruoxi's real purpose today is not to apologize, she wants to meet her fellow villagers!
But there were so many people at the table, and the Ninth Master and his wife were inseparable, so she had no chance to recognize the Ninth Master alone.
As for the Eleventh Master, although he himself didn't care about it, his wife couldn't immediately forgive the person who cursed her husband.
Even on their grassland, where women can participate in politics and have a much higher status than in the capital, they cannot stop their husbands from taking concubines.
So, the Eleventh Lady had already prepared for the worst and was ready to be a widow for the rest of her life, but life gave her such a big surprise.
Not only did her husband not have any concubines before she married him, but after marriage he also made up his mind to live with her alone wholeheartedly.
The Eleventh Lady had such a good husband that she wished she could worship him as her ancestor and pamper him like her son!
Her god-like husband who is three parts weak, three parts gentle, three parts knowledgeable, and full of the faint fragrance of herbs!
The Eleventh Lady wished she could spend more and longer days with him, and cursing her husband made her hate him more than scolding her directly!
Her hatred towards Ruoxi could not disappear in just a moment. Because of this special concern, she soon discovered Ruoxi's unusual attention to her master and ninth brother.
What does this woman want to do?
As for Ninth Brother, he always sticks to Ninth Sister-in-law, so I don’t think he will be left alone.
The Eleventh Lady subconsciously held on to her naive and simple-minded husband to prevent him from falling into any trap.
