Chapter 787: The best friend of the reborn daughter of the Duke's Mansion (Extra 1)
So what if I was born again? (I)
When the news of Prince Li's imprisonment came out, Yin Caiwei was still struggling with how to save her monthly salary!
She had no dowry and her parents didn't like her, so it was really difficult for her to make ends meet with just this little money.
Zhao Jiaheng is also a useless person. As a prince, he has no other income except the salary of a county prince.
Others all beg the prince to do things for them, but he asks his subjects to do things for him.
In order to "save" that little bit of money from requests, they actually cut down on the entire mansion's expenses. The more I think about it, the angrier I get.
"How can I live like this?" Yin Caiwei sighed and worried, "Although the future will not be bad, how long will this hard time last?"
She wanted to calculate the key points in time, but she found that things that had happened in the past seemed to have never happened in this life, and she couldn't help but start to panic.
"Master, don't worry too much," Xiao Lan comforted, "The prince likes you so much, just mention it a few more times when he comes next time."
Yin Caiwei glared at her unhappily: "What can he do?"
She didn't say the rest of the words. After all, Xiao Lan had only been with her for a short time, and she didn't know how to trust her completely.
Just then, there was a sudden noise outside.
Yin Caiwei frowned and asked unhappily, "What happened outside? Why are you making so much noise?"
But then she had an idea and started to think about it secretly.
Could it be that some maid or concubine in the next yard was punished? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little happy.
"Come on, follow me to take a look." Yin Caiwei stood up, straightened her clothes, and then took Xiao Lan to the next door. Her expression was serious and her eyes were smug, as if she was going to watch the fun.
As I reached the door, I heard increasingly louder cries coming from the yard outside.
She stepped into the room and saw the maids who had previously shown favor in front of Prince Li Zhao Jiaheng were kneeling in the yard, crying.
"What's wrong with you? You're all crying. How disgraceful?" Yin Caiwei thought that her status was higher than theirs, so she asked with a stern face.
One of the maids raised her head, looked at Yin Caiwei with tears in her eyes, and said with a sob: "Oh no, something happened to the prince..."
When Yin Caiwei heard this, her face turned pale.
She quickly asked, "What happened? Tell me!"
"Someone from the palace just now came with an imperial decree, saying that the emperor has asked the prince to move to the Butterfly Garden with his family. He is not allowed to go out without the emperor's decree, and is not allowed to have any contact with other people." After another maid finished speaking, she also burst into tears.
Yin Caiwei felt a black screen before her eyes and she almost fainted.
Confinement? These two words hit her head hard.
What is Butterfly Garden? The name sounds quite elegant, but it is where the prince is imprisoned. Not only is the house dilapidated, but one has to do everything by oneself, and there is not even anyone to serve you.
Moreover, Yin Caiwei had never heard that any prince who entered there could come out again.
The most typical example is the former King Rui and the later King Gou.
He was once the most favored prince of the dynasty. When the late emperor was the crown prince, he sometimes had to stay out of his spotlight.
Later, when the previous emperor ascended the throne, Prince Rui continued to be arrogant and domineering, relying on the imperial edict in his hand that "no one should kill his brothers and sisters". In the end, the previous emperor did not kill him, but he did not spare him either. He imprisoned him in the Butterfly Garden for more than 30 years.
Even after the death of the previous emperor, he was still imprisoned there for ten years and finally died in the Butterfly Garden.
Yin Caiwei really couldn't imagine how the other party had survived these forty years without freedom.
She held on to her body and asked in a trembling voice: "When did this happen? Why didn't anyone tell me?"
"The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict has just arrived and hasn't come over yet. The news was passed on by the aunt in front who was in charge." The maidservant added.
"The aunt in charge? Yes! Let the aunt in charge go find Concubine Jing and ask her to help think of a solution." Yin Caiwei said hurriedly as if she had grasped the last straw.
"I advise you to give up on this idea!" Ye Huaiqing, the eunuch who announced the decree, walked in with a smile, "There is no Concubine Jing in this world anymore. She has been deposed as a commoner for not ruling her subordinates strictly, and lives in the cold palace."
The rule was not strict? How could she be banished to the cold palace? Yin Caiwei was puzzled, but when she glanced at the trembling maids, she suddenly understood.
These people were originally palace maids, but they had just entered the mansion and were already very familiar and intimate with Zhao Jiaheng. And how did they walk at that time?
An idea suddenly came to Yin Caiwei's mind that these people might have already had an affair with Zhao Jiaheng when they were in the palace.
That Princess Jing...
This is the absolute imperial power: you must take what is given to you, and don’t even think about what is not given to you, because even thinking about it is a sin!
Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are the grace of the Lord!
"Someone take him away!" Ye Huaiqing said with a smile, "Prince Li is lonely in the Butterfly Garden, so I still need you to take good care of him! By the way, this Yin, forget it, I won't call him by name.
Your sister Yin Yufei will also go to Butterfly Garden soon to help take care of Prince Li, so you two must get along well!"
Yin Caiwei looked at the eunuch in front of her in disbelief. This man was apparently quite handsome, but now he looked no different from an evil ghost.
After these women were taken away, Ye Huaiqing said to the two aunts in charge: "You two can go back to the palace or go home as you like. The actual matter..."
The two looked at each other and said they would return to the palace.
