Chapter 782: Many Cheats 103
The Prince An's Mansion was lucky this time and managed to save their lives. Otherwise, if something really happened to Concubine Wang and the Emperor was furious, it would be hard to say what would happen.
Although Linlang knew that Concubine Wang had a favorite concubine system, this incident was most likely because Concubine Wang took advantage of the situation and wanted to kill the murderer behind the scenes, so Prince An's Mansion was safe and sound. However, even if Concubine Wang had a favorite concubine system, it could not be foolproof. After all, what if she went too far? Such a thing is possible. If she died then, Prince An's Mansion would still be in trouble, so Prince An's Mansion could not be said to have saved its life this time.
After the incident at Prince An's Mansion was safely over, Princess Yonghe's cousin asked to cancel her indenture contract. She felt that the reason she had been Princess Yonghe's maid before was to deal with the emergency at that time. Now that everything was fine, her indenture contract should naturally be canceled. After all, she couldn't let her be a maid forever.
Princess Yonghe also meant this. After all, her biological mother had already been talking about this matter with her, asking how she could make her niece from her mother's side her maid. Other concubines didn't have such a thing, but she did it. She would be laughed at to death, so she was asked to get her back as soon as possible.
——No one else in the mansion knew what had happened, because Princess Yonghe brought her cousin into the palace, and she knew that this was wrong, so she would definitely not let anyone know. Therefore, outsiders did not know about this, including Princess Yonghe’s biological mother, the concubine. They all thought that the person she brought into the palace was her maid.
The people from the palace came to investigate the previous registration, but they only asked about the general situation. They had not yet asked the people in the mansion to identify whether the cousin of Princess Yonghe County was named after the maid. Because the news came from the palace that the murderer had been found and the case was hastily dealt with and left, they did not find out that the goods were not the same as the ones registered. The people in the mansion did not find anything wrong. Seeing that Princess Yonghe County's cousin had become her maid, they did not find it strange. After all, there were too many cases in the capital where concubines' families served as servants in one's own mansion. It was not really that unusual.
The only thing that was a bit surprising was that Princess Yonghe's biological mother was a person who cared a lot about her reputation. Logically, she would not let her niece be a servant in the palace. Why did she let her niece be a maidservant by her daughter's side?
But in fact, letting your niece from your mother's side be a maid beside your daughter is a good future. In the future, she will be married off with your daughter, become her daughter's confidant and companion, and be the manager's wife in her daughter's house. Wouldn't the status and power be much better than being an ordinary citizen in the capital and marrying a powerless commoner who can only be bullied in the future?
Therefore, everyone just thought that Princess Yonghe's biological mother, the concubine, had thought it through and wanted to find a good way out for her family, so she let her niece be the maid of her own daughter. They didn't know the specific situation.
Besides, Concubine An also restrained a few people who knew about the matter. If she didn't want her entire family to be executed and lose their wealth and status, she couldn't tell others about Princess Yonghe bringing her cousin into the palace.
Prince An and his wife naturally would not tell anyone, and Princess Yonghe and her cousin, who were afraid of being beheaded, naturally would not tell anyone either, so naturally no one knew about this.
Not to mention that Princess Yonghe's biological mother, the concubine, didn't understand why her niece from her mother's side had to become her daughter's maid overnight. She felt it was shameful and asked her daughter to quickly cancel the indenture contract. Even Princess Yonghe herself felt that it was not good for her cousin to become her maid. After all, she wanted her cousin to become her sister-in-law. How could she become a maid? How could her cousin marry her brother?
So she immediately begged Concubine An to give the indenture contract to her cousin - after the indenture was signed, it was in Concubine An's hands. After all, Concubine An was afraid of selling her indenture to the Princess of Yonghe County, so she would immediately return the indenture to her cousin, and then it would be the same as if she had never signed it.
Concubine An would naturally not agree. In fact, she no longer trusted this pair of unreliable cousins, fearing that they would continue to bring disaster to the mansion in the future. It was because of her kindness that she was merciful. Otherwise, if it were another family, in order to solve the problem once and for all, so that they would not be brought disaster by this pair of unreliable cousins in the future, Princess Yonghe might have been sent to the farm and died of illness soon. After all, danger must be nipped in the bud, otherwise, who can sleep well at night when thinking of the existence of this danger. "Do you think this matter is over? As long as you have done this, you will always be a source of trouble. It's okay at ordinary times, but once there is something wrong in the palace and His Majesty gets angry, it may affect you. He also took away the contract of selling your body. Think about how to make this source of trouble never happen again."
What Concubine Dowager An meant was actually very simple. She wanted to kill Princess Yonghe's cousin and put an end to it all. Because once a person dies, it will be recorded in Prince An's Mansion that a certain maid has died, and the real maid has been sent to the farm, so it will be difficult to find out the truth. The higher-ups will just think that she is really dead and won't think too much about it.
Even if we conduct an in-depth investigation and find out that Princess Yonghe's cousin is indeed called that name and is Princess Yonghe's maid, we will not think too much about it. After all, as time goes by, many things become difficult to investigate. It is difficult to find out whether she was already Princess Yonghe's maid when she entered the palace.
But all this is based on the fact that Princess Yonghe's cousin is dead. If she were still alive, people in the palace would come to her to ask questions, and Concubine An would be afraid that she would not be able to withstand the interrogation in the palace and would tell the truth, which would be bad then.
After all, the palace's Ministry of Punishment would generally not bring people from the royal family to be interrogated. But the palace would not treat Princess Yonghe's maid well and would interrogate her. How could Concubine An feel at ease? Princess Yonghe's cousin could not withstand the interrogation, so it would be best if she died. Anyway, this disaster was caused by her insistence on entering the palace to take a look, and it would be right for her to end it.
In fact, all these preparations were based on the premise that the emperor would not go crazy. If the emperor went crazy, they would not be able to escape. Therefore, Concubine An, as well as Prince An and his wife, and others hated Princess Yonghe and her cousin to death. If it weren't for them messing around, there would be no need for everyone in Prince An's mansion to be so cautious.
What Concubine An said was quite clear, and Princess Yonghe was shocked when she heard it.
She was young and had never thought that there would be any follow-up to the previous incident. She thought simply that since Prince An's Mansion had escaped last time, the matter was really over and there was no need to worry about it. However, Concubine Dowager An said that the matter was not over at all and as long as there was any disturbance in the palace, Prince An's Mansion would be in danger.
But if you think about it carefully, this matter is indeed dangerous. After all, Concubine Wang is extremely favored in the palace now, and the emperor treats her like a treasure. However, there are people who target Concubine Wang one after another. If something happens to Concubine Wang one day and the emperor is furious, I am afraid there will be bloodshed. It is hard to say whether the incident in Prince An's Mansion will be dug out and settled by someone with ulterior motives. Therefore, it is better to kill her cousin as Concubine An said.
