All the people in the Hou Mansion are evil, and they will be repaid tenfold after rebirth

Chapter 132 Countermeasures

Yan Qingyu smiled slightly, "She and I have some old acquaintances. If we can win her support, Yuqi's life will be much better."

Lu Yundi's eyes flashed with surprise, but then a worried look appeared: "Although the first lady is kind, the other ladies in the mansion are not easy to deal with. I'm worried that they will join forces to deal with Yuqi."

Yan Qingyu smiled slightly, with a gleam in his eyes: "Yun Di, this requires your wisdom. You must learn how to survive in a complex environment and how to use everyone's weaknesses to protect Yuqi."

Lu Yundi nodded, and she had some idea in her mind. But she was still a little uneasy, because she knew that this struggle would not be so easy.

"Cousin, I have another request." Lu Yundi said in a deep voice.

Yan Qingyu looked at her, smiled and nodded: "Go ahead, Yundi, as long as I can do it, I will never refuse."

Lu Yundi took a deep breath and said, "I would like to ask my cousin to keep an eye out for some news in the palace, especially news about the Ningguo Mansion. I know it's risky, but only in this way can I ensure Yuqi's safety."

Yan Qingyu was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Yun Di, you are putting me in danger. But since it is for Yuqi, I am willing to help you."

A trace of gratitude flashed in Lu Yundi's eyes. She stood up and bowed deeply to Yan Qingyu: "Cousin, I am very grateful."

Yan Qingyu supported her with a smile: "Yun Di, you don't have to do this. We are a family, and we should support each other."

Yan Qingyu chuckled and asked Lu Yundi: "Your sister-in-law Jiang Yuqi has found a good marriage. Could it be that you helped her get married again?"

The sound of Yan Qingyu's chuckle echoed softly in the private room. Lu Yundi's face slightly blushed. There was a hint of teasing in her cousin's words, but there was also deep concern.

"You're joking, cousin." Lu Yundi replied softly, her fingers gently stroking the edge of the teacup, as if thinking about how to respond, "Yuqi's marriage is indeed the result of the joint efforts of everyone in the mansion. I just did my part."

Yan Qingyu nodded slightly, with approval in his eyes: "Yun Di, you are a responsible person. But, are you really assured about this marriage?"

Lu Yundi sighed slightly, with a hint of melancholy in her eyes: "Cousin, how can I be completely at ease? The Ningguo Mansion is extremely powerful. After Yuqi enters, whether she can adapt to that environment and whether she can be favored by her parents-in-law are all unknown."

Yan Qingyu patted Lu Yundi's hand gently, and his tone became gentle: "Yundi, you are a smart woman. You should know that the road to marriage is full of unknowns. All we can do is try our best to pave the way for her."

"Yes, cousin is right." Lu Yundi nodded gently, and then said, "However, I have another favor to ask of you. Yuqi is still young and simple-minded, and I am worried that she will be bullied in the mansion. Cousin, you have been in the palace for many years and have rich experience. I wonder if you can teach me how to gain a foothold in that environment?"

Yan Qingyu smiled slightly, with a hint of depth in his eyes: "Yun Di, you asked a good question. In the palace, the way to survive is complicated and changeable, but it all comes down to the word 'caution'. If Yuqi wants to gain a foothold in such an environment, the first thing she needs to learn is to hide her edge and not easily conflict with others."

Lu Yundi listened carefully and nodded from time to time: "I understand that she should hide her edge. But if she encounters unfair treatment, how should she deal with it?"

Yan Qingyu thought for a moment, then slowly spoke: "When faced with injustice, she can fight back at the right time, but she must have enough wisdom and means. In the Ningguo Mansion, she needs to find an ally she can trust. This person should preferably be powerful and able to support her when she encounters difficulties."

Lu Yundi pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly: "Cousin, I will keep your advice in mind. However, there is one more thing I need your help with."

Yan Qingyu looked at her, smiled and nodded: "Yun Di, you can talk."

"I would like to ask you to keep an eye on the news of the Ningguo Mansion for me in the palace, especially the movements of Song Mingxuan, the son of the Ningguo Duke." Lu Yundi looked directly at Yan Qingyu, "I know this is risky, but only in this way can I make better plans for Yuqi."

Yan Qingyu was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Yun Di, you are putting me in danger. But since it is for Yuqi, I am willing to help you."

A trace of gratitude flashed in Lu Yundi's eyes. She stood up and bowed deeply to Yan Qingyu again: "Cousin, I am very grateful."

Yan Qingyu supported her and said with a smile: "Yun Di, we are a family, and we should support each other. However, you must also remember that people in the palace are unpredictable, and you must always be vigilant."

Lu Yundi nodded, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes: "Cousin, I will remember your teachings. However, I also want to know, if something unexpected really happens, do you have any countermeasures?"

Yan Qingyu pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Yun Di, once the palace is in crisis, the first thing to do is to consolidate your position. As the wife of Zhenxing Marquis, you have a noble status, which is your advantage."

Lu Yundi nodded slightly, her eyes firm: "Cousin, I understand. But if the Ningguo Mansion really makes a move, how should I respond?"

Yan Qingyu's eyes flashed with a gleam of light. She gently stroked the teacup in her hand, and her tone became deep: "Yun Di, do you know? In the palace, sometimes, the most effective weapon is information. If you have the key information, you can control the overall situation."

A glimmer of understanding flashed across Lu Yundi's eyes, and she bowed slightly: "Cousin, do you mean that I need more information?"

Yan Qingyu smiled slightly and nodded, "That's right. You can use your position in the mansion to make friends with some palace maids and eunuchs and get information from them. At the same time, you should also pay close attention to the movements of the Ningguo Mansion to see if they have any abnormalities."

A trace of doubt flashed across Lu Yundi's eyes: "Cousin, if they really make a move, how should I respond?"

Yan Qingyu smiled slightly, with a hint of depth in his eyes: "Yun Di, you have to remember that although the Ningguo Mansion is powerful, they also have weaknesses. You only need to find their weaknesses, and you can defeat them in one fell swoop."

A hint of determination flashed in Lu Yundi's eyes: "Cousin, I will keep your teachings in mind. But please give me your instructions on how to do it specifically."

Yan Qingyu sighed softly and said, "Yun Di, the complexity of this is far beyond your imagination. However, I can give you a few suggestions. First, you must establish a good relationship with the housekeeper, servants and other servants in the mansion, and let them become your eyes and ears. Secondly, you must pay close attention to every move of the Ningguo Mansion, especially the news related to Song Mingxuan. Finally, you must also look for allies in the palace in case of emergency."

A trace of gratitude flashed in Lu Yundi's eyes, and she said in a deep voice: "Cousin, I will keep your advice in mind. But I want to know, if it really comes to a critical moment, how can I ask you for help?"
