Chapter 372 Old 6
Chongde Hall.
The entire patch of crabapple trees that Concubine Zhen Lu Xinyin had transplanted have already taken deep root in the courtyard.
The crabapple blossoms on the branches are like heavy pearls. The spring breeze blows by casually, and the clouds dance. Although they are beautiful, it is a pity that the crabapple blossoms have no fragrance.
"Mother, how do you think of this trick I played?"
The voice of the Sixth Prince Qin Mingjun was full of laughter. He snatched the hesitant chess piece from his sister Qin Jiayin's hand and put it on the chessboard.
"Ah! Brother, I'll soon figure out where to go."
The sixth princess, Qin Jiayin, pouted in dissatisfaction and held her Go pot in her arms.
"Brother cannot help mother. Mother and I are equally matched. We should play chess with both hands. You are not allowed to interfere."
Concubine Zhen, Lu Xinyin, shook her head helplessly and lovingly, her bright almond-shaped eyes watching her two children playing, the smile on her lips was gentle, and she made another move.
"Haitangguo's move was indeed very clever. We Haitangguo have been very smart since we were young, but we must remember, remember, and remember again. We must not be too complacent, lest we lose our caution.
Imperial Concubine Yi will not surrender so easily and sit there waiting to die. No mother will watch her child being ruined like this."
Lu Xinyin opened her red lips slightly and spoke in a very soft voice.
Except for the two trusted palace servants Gao Yun and Cen Yun who served closely, the rest of the palace servants stood far away. One could only see Concubine Zhen and her two children, the Sixth Prince Qin Mingjun and the Sixth Princess Qin Jiayin, playing Go at the stone table under the crabapple tree.
Seeing his daughter Qin Jiayin make another move, Lu Xinyin picked up the chess piece and casually placed it on the chessboard. The chess pieces made of white jade and red jade collided with the chessboard made of topaz, making a crisp "pop" sound.
"If mother's guess is correct, she should..."
Lu Xinyin hesitated for a moment and sighed quietly, "She should play the emotional card and overcome the hardness with gentleness. The young deceased Prince Zhaohui and her companionship for many years are the trump cards she holds in her hand."
"Why are you sighing, mother? This time I acted arbitrarily. Whether I can hurt the Seventh Master or not, I will not force you to do anything."
The sixth prince Qin Mingjun looked at his sister Qin Jiayin looking at the chessboard with a distressed look on her face, smiled gently, and raised his hand to rub her head.
"Among the women in the harem, Imperial Concubine Yi has the longest seniority. Crown Prince Zhaohui's emotional card is enough for Imperial Concubine Yi to use for a long time.
However, no matter what kind of feelings, no matter how deep they are, they are afraid of being worn out. Even an iron rod can be turned into a needle. How many times can her trump card protect the Seventh Prince?"
The feelings between living people increase and decrease, unlike the dead in the ground which will just waste away. If the dead are mentioned too much, it will easily become annoying; the longest seniority also means the oldest age. When Concubine Yi's temples are covered with white frost and her face is completely decayed, she will be even more annoying.
The conflict between Lu Xinyin and Meng Wuyue can be traced back to the year she first entered the palace. Many years have passed, but her dislike for Meng Wuyue remains the same.
The sixth prince Qin Mingjun blinked innocently.
Did he reveal Concubine Yi's trump card of protecting her seventh brother with just this one move?
After he attacked them like this, the brothers will focus their fire on the seventh brother and the ninth brother.
The son of a royal concubine who has a brother who is the crown prince, and the eldest son, naturally attracts everyone's attention.
"Empress Dowager, your grandmother, your mother's good aunt, did not leave any good cards for your mother to use. She left in a hurry, but she only made you tired and unable to hold a banquet to celebrate your birthday like other brothers and sisters."
If her aunt could be used as an emotional card, wouldn't she have swept through the harem and used up this card of her aunt at once?
