Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Xia Shouzhong politely returned the greeting: "Master Wang, I haven't seen you for three years. You look even stronger!"

Wang Ziteng pretended not to understand the sarcasm in his words and said with a smile: "I think the servants at home passed the message wrongly? Girls in our family enter the Eastern Palace with the rank of Chenghui. Even if they are promoted for merit, they should be Liangyuan. Why did the servants just say Liangdi?"

Ha ha.

Jia Wang Shi Xue's tentacles are all over the capital. How could you not know that your niece's promotion was due to that? Why are you pretending!?

Xia Shouzhong kept complaining in his heart, but he smiled and bowed: "I was just about to congratulate you, sir!

"His Majesty rewarded our Queen for her contribution in raising the princess and her outstanding performance in studying under the emperor's order, so he specially promoted her by two levels and promoted her to Liang Di.

"It's just that the seals are stored in the warehouse during the New Year holidays. We have to wait until the new year to open the seals. Then the good news will be sent to your house."

Wang Ziteng was filled with surprise and was so excited that he lifted his robe and kowtowed: "How can I be so worthy of this? How can I be so worthy of this!"

"Lord Wang, there is no need to do this. Our Concubine has been confined to the palace with the little princess for three years, and Lord Wang has been in mourning in Jinling for three years. There has been no contact between them.

"Liang Di is both virtuous and capable. His Majesty favors her and grants her the title of Liang Di. The Crown Prince also relies on her very much. Now that the Crown Princess is ill and recovering from her injuries, Wang Liang Di has begun to assist in managing the rear palace."

Xia Shouzhong smiled with a fake smile, "Lord Wang, ah, don't blame me for being quick-witted. I even forgot to ask: Who are you talking about?"

Wang Ziteng pointed at himself with a stiff smile: "Of course you're talking about me. How could I be so worthy to have such an outstanding niece!"

"Haha, that's right." Xia Shouzhong sat down and asked him about the matter, "I heard from your servants that your two sisters are here, so please come out and leave quickly, okay?

"Our Concubine is now in charge of the food, drink, accommodation and transportation of hundreds of people in the back hall! It's better not to keep her waiting for too long!"

Wang Ziteng forced a smile and said, "I have sent someone to inform them. But my sister needs to change into proper clothes before entering the palace. Also, since Liang Di is looking forward to a family reunion during the New Year, can my sister bring the child with her?"

"Okay... okay! Each family can take one. Our little princess is very aloof and proud. We dare not bring too many children into the East Palace for fear that she will be unhappy." Xia Shouzhong became more and more pretentious and arrogant.

After a long while, Jia Wangshi indeed changed her clothes and walked out reluctantly with Xue Wangshi, accompanied by Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai.

One of them wore a red sleeve with two-color golden butterflies and flowers, and the other wore a honey-colored jacket with a rose-purple and two-color golden and silver mouse jacket. But both of them were as white as snow and as bright as jade, which made them look even more wealthy and blessed.

When Xia Shouzhong saw the two children, he was stunned for a moment, then he laughed: "What a perfect pair!"

This sentence made the two children blush, but the Wang brothers and sisters all started laughing.

Especially Wang Ziteng.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: This is the first good thing that Manager Xia has said since he came to the Wang family.

He also looked at the two children carefully and praised them. Suddenly, he remembered that when Lin Ruhai first came to Beijing, he saw the three members of the Lin family in Jia Mansion and thought that the girl seemed better...

The Wang sisters each took their children onto the carriage and followed Xia Shouzhong into the Eastern Palace.

Everything in the Eastern Palace was new and new to Jia Baoyu. He could not help looking around, staring with his eyes wide open, and exclaiming “wow” again and again.

Xue Baochai could not help but look at the adults in front who were talking privately, and the eunuch who was leading the way like a wooden man. No one was paying attention to the two children behind.

She pulled Jia Baoyu and warned him in a low voice: "Don't look at anything inappropriate, don't say anything inappropriate. Brother Bao, you are entering the East Palace. If you say something wrong or take a wrong step, it will cause all of us to be punished!"

Baoyu's excitement was suppressed all of a sudden. He pouted and thought for a long time before he whispered, "Sister Feng is the concubine of the Eastern Palace. With her around, no one will punish me!"

"She has the Crown Princess above her, the Crown Prince, and the palace rules. Brother Bao, if you are so disobedient, why don't I ask my aunt to lead you for a walk?"

Baochai was very cautious. After saying this, she did not give Baoyu any more opportunities to pester her. She ran forward, took her mother's hand, looked up and whispered:

"Brother Bao always wants to run away, and I can't control him. Mother, please ask Auntie to hold him back."

Jia Wangshi hurriedly turned around and took her precious son in her hand, and gently reminded him: "This is the palace, the rules are strict, you must be careful."

Jia Baoyu was very dissatisfied and made faces at Xue Baochai through two adults.

Xue Baochai pretended not to see it.

Turning the corner, they saw a square palace in front of them. The eunuch who led the way was still the same as when Xue Wang entered the palace last time, leading them through the small door on the side and into the back door of the east palace.

Mrs. Xue looked at the familiar path and whispered to Mrs. Jia, "My sister's life is not easy either... That princess is the eldest daughter of the crown prince and is very precious.

"She has achieved her current position by being cautious and prudent. Sister, please be more lenient with her."

Jia Wang looked coldly at her silly sister, feeling only annoyance. She turned away woodenly, saying nothing and concentrating on walking.

But when they entered the outer room of the East Hall, they were stopped.

Hongdou smiled and asked them to wait: "What a coincidence, the wives of our East Palace officials came to pay New Year's greetings to Liangdi, and the girl in the family is a good friend of the little princess, and they were talking intimately inside.

"The ladies are all Liangdi's blood relatives, so I don't think they will blame her. Would you just sit for a moment?"

However, the tea and snacks were arranged thoughtfully and appropriate seats were given.

Mrs. Xue Wang thought it was normal: people in her family would not argue about these so-called honorable things.

Since we are receiving the wives of officials, we are doing the official business of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Compared with the private affairs of our own family gatherings, the latter is naturally more important.

However, Jia Wangshi knew that this was a show of power from Wang Xifeng.

Today’s affairs may not be easy to handle.

From the inner room came the laughter of little girls playing and the worried voices of two adults, "Don't run! Be careful not to bump into anything! Don't cause trouble for us in this year!"

Jia Wang was slightly startled: This voice sounds so familiar!

Baoyu, who was standing next to him, had already heard what was going on and jumped down from his chair in great joy: "It's Aunt and Sister Lin! Mother, are they coming with us?

"Let's go in quickly! I haven't seen Sister Lin for a long time!

"The old ancestor originally said that Auntie would bring Sister Lin back home today, but you insisted on taking me out before I even waited!

"Now it's all good! It turns out that she knows that I miss her, so she rushed to the palace to wait for me!"

Clap your hands and laugh.

After hearing this, Xue Baochai's face changed slightly.

Seeing that Jia Wang was frozen in silence, Xue Wangshi had no choice but to reach out and hold Baoyu: "Brother Bao! This is not our home, don't be reckless!

"The inner room is the women's inner chamber. Even though it's not big, you can't force your way in without permission!"

Before he finished speaking, an old maid's voice rang out in a dignified voice: "Who is making a noise? It's rude!"

Jia Wangshi pulled Xue Wangshi and sneered: "This is your good niece..."

Before he could finish his words, Wang Xifeng's laughter could be heard from the inner room: "Oh my! Could it be that my two aunts are here?

"What a coincidence today!

"Why did you all come to my place instead of gathering together outside?!

"If I didn't know, I would have thought you had planned it all out and were going to plot against me!"
