Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Chapter 239: Submit a memorial!

"Mother, Yuanchun is in her prime, and she is elegant, dignified, beautiful and intelligent. Even if she is not the principal wife of the princes, she should be a lady of the royal family. How can she become a nun?"

Jia Zheng subconsciously opened his mouth to refute.

He thought he was protecting his daughter, and didn't realize that his subconscious mind was still trying to make his daughter a worthy marriage partner.

In the inner room, Yuanchun, whose eyes were originally shining, turned gloomy again after hearing a word from her biological father.

Xie glanced at Jia Wang, who was crying and deaf to everything else, and then looked at Li Wan, who was standing beside her and could only comfort her with one sentence: "Don't be sad", and bit her lip lightly.

Facing Jia Yuanchun's inadvertent gaze, Xie put aside the scissors she had just snatched from her hand, then turned away: "Madam, please stop crying. You've broken my sister's heart..."

If Jia Yuanchun doesn't understand that her sister-in-law is helping and saving her life, then she has lived in the palace for the past three years in vain!

He immediately shook off Jia Wang's hand, rushed over, grabbed the scissors, pulled his hair up and started cutting!

Frozen with fear, Jia Wang subconsciously rushed forward to stop her daughter from cutting her hair. But Xie hugged her tightly and said, "Madam, don't be impulsive!"

Then he whispered in her ear urgently, "Sister is just cutting her hair now. If you still don't allow it, and if she gets impatient, what if she pokes you in the face?!"

Jia Wangshi trembled all over and immediately froze her hands and feet. She only dared to hold on to Xie's arm and cried, "My son, please stop! Don't worry, don't worry!

"Even if I risk my life, I will never let you go back to that wolf's den!

"No need for your grandmother, I will go change into the imperial robes and go beat the drum for the imperial hearing!"

Everyone outside was horrified when they heard this, especially Jia Zheng, who had to consider the distinction between men and women inside and outside the room. He was also afraid that his daughter might not have taken off the clothes inside and put them on yet, so he ran to the door of the inner room and stomped his feet through the curtain!

"What's going on? Why doesn't anyone come and tell me what's going on?!"

"My elder sister cut her hair... Mom is afraid that she will poke herself with the scissors, so she is crying..." a timid voice of a child sounded.

Jia Zheng looked down and saw his second son Baoyu, whom he had always disliked. He was so frightened that his face turned pale and his whole body was shaking. His big eyes were full of tears. One of his little hands wanted to grab his clothes but didn't dare to, so it was trembling in the air.

The people closest to this child, besides his grandmother, are his mother and elder sister. Now one of them is emaciated and the other is crazy. He is probably scared out of his wits.

Jia Zheng felt pity for a moment, then immediately frowned impatiently: "What are you doing here? Where are your nurse and maid? Come quickly, take Baoyu away!"

When Lady Jia and Lady Wang heard this from both inside and outside the room, they were both startled. They hurriedly sent people to check, only to see that Jia Zheng had already bent down, picked up little Baoyu, and walked him straight to the door of the main room.

Nanny Li, who had been scratching her head outside and didn't dare to go in, had already cried anxiously. When she saw the second master personally bringing her wet son out, she ran over in two or three steps, took Baoyu with both hands, and blurted out:

"Thank you, Second Master! I just couldn't find my brother..."

After a pause, she realized that she had said the wrong thing. She was so scared that she fell to her knees with a plop, but she was still holding Baoyu firmly in her arms. "I have lost my mind and am talking nonsense. I beg the master to punish me!"

"Watch him, get out of here."

Jia Zheng looked over and saw that the nurse was treating the young master wholeheartedly, so he naturally did not blame her harshly. As something important happened in the room, he only scolded her and turned around to go back.

At this time, Grandmother Jia was so angry that she beat her chest and stamped her feet, crying and shouting: "If you two stop me from canceling Yuanchun's engagement, I will go to Jingzhao Prefecture to sue you for being disobedient and unfilial!"

Jia She and Jia Zheng had no choice but to kneel down and kowtow: "Why don't you ask mother to write a memorial and we will present it to His Majesty tomorrow morning."

"That's all." Grandmother Jia stopped crying and wiped her tears. Seeing the two of them looking at each other, she sneered, "Don't think of stalling for time with me.

"I think everyone in the court has heard about Prince Su's personality.

"No one can force Yuanchun to go back today! She will sleep in my room here! Let her write my memorials for me!"

The two brothers gritted their teeth and said they didn't dare, then looked at each other and retreated.

At this moment, Yuanchun's mind suddenly relaxed, and she closed her eyes, fell down softly, and fainted.

Grandmother Jia had already helped the maid into the inner room. Seeing this, she burst into tears again. After thinking for a while, she ordered someone, "Go and invite your aunt."

Jia Wangshi was originally panicked, and immediately paused, looking up at Grandmother Jia: "Madam is recovering from illness, why bother to call her here and make her sad?"

"Min Er refused to reconcile with Lin Ru Hai, so I had no choice but to let her do what she wanted.

"She told me the other day that she wanted to renovate the Lixiang Courtyard where she lived and arrange it like a Taoist temple. I was afraid that she might want to leave the world, so I hesitated and didn't agree.

"Now, alas..." Grandmother Jia sighed and wiped her tears with her handkerchief, "Let the aunt and nephew go together."

Jia Wang fell silent.

The next morning, a letter of apology from the widow of Duke Rong, Lady Jia Shi, a first-rank duke, was delivered to Emperor Shengping by her son.

When Emperor Shengping saw this, he was so furious!

It's only been a few days since he brought Jia back to Prince Su's mansion? He's tortured the girl to the point that she would rather become a nun than stay in his backyard!

"The Jia family is a tolerant family. Now that Jia Shishi has written such a tearful memorial, I am afraid that Jia Yuanchun has suffered great injustice in the Prince Su's Mansion.

"Do you know the inside story?" Emperor Shengping asked Dai Quan with a dark face.

Dai Quan hesitated to speak, sighed first, and then told the two rumors on the street, and then said: "Prince Su felt that he had lost face, so he went back to humiliate Jia Shi and also humiliated Lords Rong and Ning.

"Mrs. Jia couldn't stand it any longer, so she said a few words back. Prince Su seized this opportunity, took out his horse whip, and gave Miss Jia a good beating...

“I heard that Ms. Jia was also very tough and didn’t say a word.

"Prince Su was afraid that Lady Jia would commit suicide, so he sent four maids to watch over her day and night.

"On the first day of March, Jia Wangshi wanted to visit her daughter and give her some precious ornaments and silks.

"As a result, when the servants arrived, the prince was not at home. The princess was afraid of being exposed, so she made up many excuses to prevent the mother and daughter from meeting.

"Then Mrs. Jia Wang became suspicious. Yesterday, on Daughters' Day, she specially sent out invitations in the names of the girls in her family.

"Since Prince Su was not at home, the princess did not dare to force her to stay, so she let Lady Jia go back...

"I think this is because my mother's family has seen the injuries on my body."

Emperor Shengping was so angry that he felt dizzy: "Evil creature, beast! How can I face my ministers? How can I explain this to the Crown Prince?!"

He agreed to the prince's suggestion, not because he was giving the prince face. On the contrary, under that situation, it was the prince who gave him face, so he let the foolish Queen Mo and the reckless Prince Su off for the last time.

But Prince Su had no idea that his situation was already precarious.
