Chapter 783: Many Cheats 104
Princess Yonghe thought that her cousin was her servant now, and it wouldn't be a big deal if the master beat the servant to death, especially for royal family members like them. It was really not a big problem. After all, even a fallen noble like the Marquis of Xinxiang dared to beat a servant to death and felt like nothing happened, let alone royal family members like them.
Of course, beating her to death would be a bad thing and would make her reputation bad. People would say that they were not kind and merciful and mistreat their servants. It would be more convenient to just poison my cousin to death and tell others that she died of a sudden illness.
Outsiders would not investigate how a servant in the palace died suddenly of illness.
However, she still found it difficult to poison her cousin, so after hearing what Concubine An said, she felt a little hesitant and went back to think about how to deal with the matter.
She had just gone to see Concubine An to discuss getting her indenture back, so she went alone, not with her cousin or her biological mother, the concubine.
Now that she was back, her mother was not there, but her cousin was. After all, she was her maid now, and it would not be easy for her to go home, lest people notice something was wrong.
At this moment her cousin asked her, "Is the Concubine willing to give me my indenture?"
Princess Yonghe glanced at her cousin, and then thought of Concubine An's words. She was moved and didn't tell the whole truth, but she didn't lie either. She said, "She doesn't want to give it. If she says she does, it will be troublesome if the palace investigates this matter again one day."
Although she didn't say anything in front of Concubine Dowager An, in fact, Princess Yonghe already had an idea in her mind.
She is as selfish as Han Yi Niang and others in the Xinxiang Marquis' Mansion. After all, if she was not selfish, how could she harm her original body and let her cousin become her sister-in-law? Since she is a selfish person, now that she sees that her cousin is going to endanger her safety, there is no need to say what she will do.
Since she had the courage to harm her original body and Linlang, she naturally had the courage to harm her cousin.
When she first heard it, she felt a little reluctant, just like when she first heard her cousin talk about giving musk to Linlang, she felt a little reluctant at first.
However, her reluctance would soon disappear, and what would remain was to think about her own interests. And, in the end, her own interests would surely prevail, and she would not let her cousin's existence endanger her interests.
In fact, when Concubine An spoke to Princess Yonghe like that, she didn't expect her to let her cousin die of illness. After all, in Concubine An's view, Princess Yonghe was just a child, and how could she expect a child to kill people? She just wanted to see her attitude first. If she was willing, Concubine An would take action - first get her cousin to the farm, and then let her die of illness. It wouldn't be difficult.
So she said that to Princess Yonghe, just to get Princess Yonghe's attitude, to prevent her from getting rid of the person and Princess Yonghe from resenting her.
So she explained to her the harmfulness of the matter. In this way, if she was willing, Concubine An would take action, and she would not hate Concubine An too much.
However, Concubine An underestimated the character of Princess Yonghe. She could harm her original body and Linlang without blinking an eye, so it would not be a big deal if she harmed another cousin.
Besides, she had no burden in her heart for harming innocent people like the original body or Linlang, and she would have even less burden for harming the culprit like her cousin. Yes, since she decided to kill her cousin, she began to find excuses for herself, and the excuses were too easy to find - it was all her cousin's fault that she had to enter the palace, otherwise how could she encounter such a crisis of extermination of the family, so killing her and resolving the crisis, what's wrong?
See, she quickly prepared herself mentally to kill.
In fact, it would be best if Princess Yonghe did it herself, because if she killed someone herself, she couldn't blame anyone else. If Concubine An killed someone, Princess Yonghe was selfish. If something happened in the future and she regretted it, she might blame Concubine An for killing her cousin. But if she killed someone herself, even if she regretted it in the future, she couldn't blame Concubine An much. After all, even if Concubine An said to kill her cousin, she could just let Concubine An do it. But she insisted on killing someone herself, and now she regrets it. Who can she blame? Who made her insist on killing someone?
Princess Yonghe's cousin was still a little naive. She didn't realize that her cousin, who was apparently the same age as her but was actually much younger than her in modern times, had already developed murderous intentions towards her.
In fact, she should have thought that her cousin was not an ordinary person. After all, she asked her to harm Linlang, and she actually took the musk and prepared to harm people.
She is so young, yet she dares to harm others. With such a character, Princess Yonghe's cousin didn't even guard against her. One can only say that modern society is too peaceful and has made her a waste.
After hearing what Princess Yonghe said, my cousin couldn't help but complain, "This old witch is really taking advantage of me. How long will it take for me to return my indenture? I don't want to be a servant."
Princess Yonghe smiled and said, "Don't worry. When the imperial concubine in the palace gives birth to twins safely, His Majesty will surely be very happy, and we won't have to worry about that matter anymore."
The cousin thought it made sense. She thought that Concubine Wang was about to give birth, so she could wait for only one or two months. So she said, "That's fine. Let's wait. But let's make it clear that we are cousins. I am not your real servant. You can't treat me like a servant."
Princess Yonghe kept smiling and said, "Of course, my favorite person is my cousin. How could I order my cousin around? I will serve my cousin."
As she spoke, she poured a cup of tea for her cousin.
What Princess Yonghe said was actually true. Before, Princess Yonghe did like this cousin from her mother's family the most. However, the situation was different at that time and she threatened her safety, so she had to let it go.
In fact, it was just her cousin. If a different relative spoke to her like this, Princess Yonghe would be unhappy, because, in many families in the capital, servants became concubines, and her family members still worked in the mansion. Then, when they met the children of these concubines, they had to pay their respects like servants to other masters, and they dared not act like their family members.
Now the cousin of Princess Yonghe is also her servant. Logically, she should perform formalities like a servant and not act like a relative. However, because the other party does not regard herself as a servant, she has naturally never performed formalities to Princess Yonghe, and the two of them still get along as before.
In fact, this is against the rules. She liked her cousin the most before, so she naturally wouldn't have any thoughts about it.
But now, since she was going to kill her, she could no longer expect her to be her sister-in-law and bring her benefits in the future. In other words, she was useless to her, and she was no different from other cousins from her mother's family. The Princess of Yonghe County naturally felt less fond of her. When she heard her cousin say this, she felt a little unhappy, thinking, if I hadn't praised you, who would you be? Aren't you just an ordinary commoner? The reason why you can sit on an equal footing with me is entirely because of the qualifications I gave you. Otherwise, how could an ordinary commoner sit on an equal footing with the emperor's granddaughter and be treated with courtesy by her?
