"No, other than my mother, they're just friends on the surface. All of them are like mice seeing a cat when they see me. They're all afraid of offending Mother or Father if they make me unhappy."
That was right. The concubines didn't dare to provoke this princess who was doted on by everyone.
"But … if I have to say, Concubine Leng has been showing goodwill to me recently. She would send someone to give me whatever Father gave her last time. Even if … she knows that it's not as good as what I usually use, she would still send some over, saying that it's to repay my kindness."
"Concubine Leng? Ol 'Ninth's birth mother? "Wei Ziyao thought of that little Yuan Yuan. She missed her quite a bit.
"Yes, it's her. It's strange. Father dotes on Ol 'Ninth very much, but he doesn't treat Concubine Leng well. He didn't promote her because of Ol' Ninth."
A mother's status rose because of her son. Usually, when the son was doted on, the mother would be promoted.
However, Concubine Leng's status was promoted after she gave birth to a son.
Speaking of which, it had been many years since she moved.
"Isn't that simple? This shows that His Majesty truly loves Ol 'Ninth. Because Ol' Ninth is young, no matter how well His Majesty treats him, he won't be envied or an eyesore. However, if Concubine Leng is promoted, then this favor will change."
The deceased Eldest Prince, Qi Yanqing, had been carefully groomed by the Emperor as his successor since he was young.
As for Ol 'Ninth, the Emperor must have doted on him as a normal father and son, so there was no impurity in him.
"So that's how it is. You see the problem clearly. I thought about it before. When Concubine Leng said that she was repaying a debt of gratitude, she was definitely talking about you saving Old Ninth. You were outside the palace, so she couldn't treat you well. But when I was in the palace, she gave me all the kindness she had for you."
Qi Jianning had the same thoughts as Wei Ziyao.
"If that's the case, I think she's the best person to help you. She'll definitely help you."
"No." Wei Ziyao shook her head.
"Ol 'Jiu is still so young. If Concubine Leng is drawn into the dispute because of this matter, it will definitely affect him. I do not want Ol' Jiu to be involved in this matter."
After Wei Ziyao said this, Qi Jianning looked at her with a smile.
Wei Ziyao felt her hair stand on end.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Are you going to bite me? "
"No, I just feel that after you got married, you've become more powerful, but you've also become more heartless. To put it bluntly, you've become heartless."
Qi Jianning was quite a good judge of character.
"Yes, I don't have a conscience anymore. But speaking of conscience, you, Little Nine, and my family and friends are the only ones I have left."
"Why is there Little Nine? You don't know her well, do you? "
Qi Jianning was puzzled.
Indeed, they were not close.
But in retrospect.
When she transmigrated, she was at a loss and helpless. In the palace where there were mountains of knives and seas of fire, the first person who treated her well without caring about anything was Little Nine.
Little Nine had unsuspectingly entrusted her "little brother" that she desperately wanted to protect to her and even gave her a handful of candy.
This pure heart was what Wei Ziyao wanted to protect.
Because … her pure heart was long gone.
"He's a clean child. He shouldn't be involved in this torrent."
"Okay." Qi Jianning nodded. "In that case, let's find someone else. Tell me your plan first. Maybe I can think of a suitable candidate."
The two of them discussed mysteriously for a long time. Qi Jianning revealed a confident smile. "That's easy!"
