Second Master Xue of the Red Chamber has space

Chapter 346
In other words, time flies, but time is hard to catch up, and it is the end of the year again.Everywhere is busy with New Year ceremonies, banquets, and birthday celebrations, as lively as in previous years.

But such a lively scene made one person very depressed, and that was Princess Shuyi, Ruyi.

During the Chinese New Year last year, she was still busy in Ningguo Mansion, but this year, not to mention that Ningguo Mansion collapsed and everyone scattered like birds and beasts, even Rongguo Mansion was no longer called Rongguo Mansion, it could only be called Jia Mansion.

And since I have often been in and out of the court these days, I realized that the things I took for granted are actually not as simple as they seem on the surface, so this year, Ruyi has no interest in going there at all. Ruyi was becoming more and more dissatisfied, which made Ruyi extremely uneasy. Apart from going to the palace to meet the prince every day, she left the other things to the nanny, Ruizhu, and Baozhu.

On this day, when Ruyi came back from her commute, she couldn't help sighing again.

Ruizhu didn't dare to disturb her at first, but...some questions seemed to be unavoidable.

"Gege, we are about to reach the end of the year. The old people of Ning Mansion...you can just ignore others, but that Jia Rong...isn't the imperial edict Gege still useless now? He is also Gege's forehead consort after all. The truth is that I won’t come to reunite with Princess even after the Chinese New Year.”

Ruyi smiled tiredly: "Actually, you want to ask me why I have been reluctant to use that imperial decree until now, right?"

Rui Zhu lowered her head: "There is nothing to hide from Ge Ge."

Ruyi sighed: "Originally, I also thought it would be a good thing to reconcile with Jia Rong, but...do you remember my sister?"

"Gege, are you talking about Princess Hanxi, who married the young prince of Mongolia?"

Ruyi nodded: "She is only 15 years old, and she is still the daughter of the crown prince's concubine, and she can't escape the fate of marrying and getting married. I heard that among the clan girls, as long as the age and status are suitable, even if they are added Those who are reconciled to Li may also be selected for marriage. This matter really makes me terrified. I am afraid that even if I get rid of Jia Rong, what is waiting for me may be a ridiculous marriage. If that is the case, it is better to maintain the status quo .”

Ruyi's words reminded Ruizhu that this remark about being close to relatives and not being close to each other was originally said by Concubine De.The strange thing is that when Concubine Tian De said that there was once a clan girl who was chosen to marry her even after they divorced because of her good looks, she kept staring at their Princess. It turned out that she had some intention, to wake up Princess?But why did Concubine De say such things?Did Lord Kangxi make a decision that even the crown prince didn't know about?

Ruyi smiled wryly: "Ruizhu, you are ready to prepare, and others will forget it. On the day of the New Year's Eve, ask someone to pick up Jia Rong. I will tell him that if he can abandon those concubines, he will be in the future. Arrange a place for him in this princess's mansion. If I can't...hey...then I have no choice but to accept my fate..."

This made Rui Zhu feel a sharp pain in his heart: "Ge Ge..."

Ruyi didn't feel very sad, but just said: "Okay, Ruizhu, I have another thing for you to do. You take this and go to Xue's house to meet Mrs. Xue."

Ruizhu took the dragon and phoenix Chengxiang warm jade pendant from Ruyi with both hands, and couldn't hide her happiness: "Gege, you...you finally figured it out?"

Ruyi smiled in relief: "People can only live this life. I want to experience the feeling of having a family more while I am still alive. You go, I am waiting for your good news."

Xue House.

Because it's the end of the year, Xue's residence is also very busy, here, Man Rong who is beside Xue Wangshi hurriedly came to see Xue Wangshi: "Madam, madam."

"You girl, if you have something to say slowly, what are you panicking about?"

"Ma'am, this is something delivered by the girl next to Princess Ruyi. She said that she must show it to my wife. I am afraid that others will not know the importance, so I personally took it over. Let my wife have a look."

And when Xue Wang took over the jade pendant here, he almost lost his grip.When Xue Yi had this thing made by a craftsman, he specially showed it to himself. He also said that his sister's child was very pretty and had a nice name.

Ruyi Ruyi... So this Ruyi is that Ruyi?Back then, the master searched for his sister and found no whereabouts. Didn't he guess that the child died with his sister?
For this reason, their family even took care of the funeral of their sister and child. How could something like this happen again today?

"Man... Man Rong, where is that person? Quick... take me to see her!"

Seeing that Wang Xue didn't care about other things, she just went to see Princess Ruyi's maid, and hurriedly said: "I'm drinking tea in the flower hall, ma'am, please slow down..."

Regardless of Wang Xue's disregard, the steps under her feet became faster and faster. When she saw Ruizhu, she pulled her up before Ruizhu saluted: "You said you are the servant girl of Princess Ruyi, so this jade pendant Is it also Princess Ruyi's? Is it really hers? She... really is..."

Ruizhu saw Mrs. Xue rushing over, as long as she knew the truth of the matter, her eyes were already filled with tears, and the pity and sorrow on her face could not be concealed, let alone faked, so she knew it in her heart. Xue Wang recognized the jade pendant, and also knew who the owner of the jade pendant was from their family.

Ruizhu just sighed: "Yes, this jade pendant really belongs to our Gege. However, Gege only got it in the past few years. Before that, the madam's nanny Xue helped keep it. Gege met with Xue first. After we met, we found out about our background, and the crown prince later recognized Ge Ge..."

Before Rui Zhu could finish speaking, Xue Wang said, "Then she already knows, why didn't she come to recognize her relatives? She knew that back then, her uncle didn't eat or drink for days and nights in order to find her. I was about to be dazed. After searching for a long time, I couldn't find her, her uncle was crying like that, and even arranged for her mother and her funeral. Since she is alive, how can she not bear to recognize her, how can she have the heart?!"

Ruizhu also didn't expect that there was such a past in Jia's house back then, and she couldn't help being moved after hearing this, so she explained Gege's concerns from beginning to end.She said that she was really reluctant to come because of the Ningguo Mansion and her own identity, and she was afraid of implicating the Xue family, and she had long admired her mother's natal family in her heart.

Now that all the dust has settled, and it will be the New Year again, Ruyi is relieved, thinking about reuniting with her family, and only then has the idea of ​​recognizing relatives.

After finishing these words, Xue Wang could not make a sound: "My son, who has been homeless for so many years and endured so much hardship, finally found out about his own life experience, and always cared about us not daring to come to recognize him. This... If this If her uncle knows, isn't he going to goug out a piece of his heart?"
