Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

So, my mother actually agreed to my request? !

He Ke jumped up with joy, and regardless of Wang Xifeng's repeated calls to stop him, he shamelessly hugged her and rubbed her hard for a while;

Then he jumped up, grabbed Wang Xuanhe and Lin Daiyu, and ran away laughing, "Mother, you talk to your grandparents in private, I'm going to take my aunt out to play!

"We'll be back from lunch!"

Before he could finish his words, he was gone.

Wang Xifeng ordered urgently, "Jingli should follow first! Nanny Ji, take Chuncao, Chunsui, and Ping'er with you, go quickly!"

A group of people followed in panic.

Suddenly, the only people left in the palace were Wang Zifu and his family of three, Aunt Meng, An'er and Chunnuan.

How perceptive is Aunt Meng? She immediately called Chun Nuan: "Come here, let's discuss the dishes for lunch."

Seeing this, An'er also silently followed and walked a few steps outside and stood at the door of the hall.

"Since my father and mother entered the capital yesterday morning, has anyone come to bother them?" Wang Xifeng looked straight at Wang Zifu.

Wang Zifu remained calm and said, “No.

“I was banished back to my hometown by the order of the Supreme Being himself.

“Although I have been granted the grace of His Majesty to visit the Imperial Concubine in Beijing this time, I have not even seen His Majesty in person. How can I casually tell other people and meet with them in private?

"So, no one knows that your mother and I took your sister back to Beijing."

Such an understatement.

However, this family of three set out from Jiangnan and traveled for more than a month. How could they have hidden it from anyone?

unless……

Wang Xifeng looked at her father with admiration: "Father's arrangement is indeed appropriate."

"Your brother didn't stay in Jiangnan for nothing." Mrs. Yuan also smiled.

My brother and sister-in-law stayed behind to cover up, and they covered it up very well.

Wang Xifeng smiled knowingly and thought of another thing: "But, haven't cousin Xue and cousin Li gone home?

"them……"

Wang Zifu lowered his eyes and looked at his hands: "When they went back last year, I took a look at their homework, it was very poor.

"So, I found them an excellent academy. The headmaster is an old friend of mine.

"Since they returned to the academy for classes after the New Year, I have made an agreement with my old friends that they will not be allowed to leave until the autumn examination this year."

Wang Xifeng laughed: "It's okay for the cousin from the Xue family, but shouldn't the cousin Li be filial to his stepmother? Why is he also locked up in the academy?"

"Don't even mention your cousin Li, even Brother Yi was imprisoned by your father." Mrs. Yuan sighed softly when she said this, "Your aunt has been ill for many years, and Brother Yi has been dragged down to the point of being emaciated.

"When Ping'er returned home, we knew about the good things your grandmother and your second uncle's family had done. Although your father said nothing on the surface, he actually cut off all ties with them.

"Later, your second uncle came to your house again and again to plead for mercy, saying that it was the old lady and Yu who were targeting you, and that he had never touched you.

"Your father didn't have a soft heart. It was just that the situation in Jiangnan was complicated, and at that time he recognized Xuan He, so your father had no choice but to deal with him and pretend to be nice to him. He barely forgave him.

“But I also told him clearly that since their parents had passed away, the two brothers could separate the family business.

"Your second uncle was very afraid that your father would mention this, so he started to avoid our family.

"When your second uncle returns to the capital, he will leave the eldest son, Wang Yi, behind to serve his mother.

"Your brother couldn't bear the brotherly love he had with Yi Ge'er since childhood, so he went to see him. When he came back, he said that Yi Ge'er's life was not a human life.

"Later, he secretly helped, and even found a capable maid and wife to take care of your aunt for Yi Ge'er, and your father and I pretended not to see it.

"Later, when Pan and Li returned south, your father took the opportunity to send all three children to study in the academy, away from these dirty things.

"I guess their children also wrote to your uncle and told him about it. He even sent us some rags that he had nowhere to put to express his gratitude.

"Your father threw all the things back to their second room. Nothing was left."

When Mrs. Yuan said this, she glanced at Wang Zifu and saw that he just lowered his head to drink tea, so she continued:

“In fact, your second aunt’s health has been failing for a long time. She has been relying on various high-quality medicines to stay alive for the past six months. In the past few years, Pan’er’s family’s medicine shop has been almost completely taken over by your aunt!

"Before we left, I found an excuse to go see your aunt, and she was so thin that she was just a bag of bones.

"An inner courtyard steward who was looking after her told me that your second uncle told her not to just focus on your second aunt, but also to go and visit your grandparents' graves, as well as Yi Ge'er and Li Ge'er."

Hearing this, Wang Xifeng let out a long breath.

Wang Ziteng has become impatient and wants to get rid of his wife quietly.

"It's interesting to talk about it. Recently, many mistresses have fallen ill, and they are quite sick."

Wang Xifeng said it was interesting, but her expression was extremely cold.

Wang Zifu raised his eyebrows and slowly asked, "How did your Majesty know that many mistresses were sick outside?"

"That's how you know it! Such a well-known thing is normal as long as no one connects the dots.

"But if you put them together and look at the behavior of my good uncle, you will know how bad this evil wind is."

Wang Xifeng sneered.

Madam Yuan looked thoughtful, glanced at Wang Zifu, and said softly, "I heard from a shopkeeper last night that someone was asking about Jia Min, the divorced Jia family member."

Wang Xifeng was stunned: "It's not Jia Yuanchun, but Jia Min?"

"Yes." Madam Yuan nodded slowly, her eyes unconsciously turned to the side hall, then looked at Wang Xifeng and said softly, "I just thought it was weird before, but after seeing the situation between the princess and Sister Lin today, I roughly understand why."

"Ms. Lin's surname is Lin, and Lin Ruhai no longer has any contact with the Jia family." Wang Xifeng curled her lips, but her eyes were very cold. "Tomorrow I will tell the emperor, the queen, and the girls' teacher, County Lady Zhai:

"Master Lin is too busy, and there is no mistress at home who can take care of the children. Therefore, Sister Lin will stay in my Yinyu Palace to be He Kezhengjing's study companion.

"I want to see what kind of shameless person dares to put his hand here!"

Wang Zifu looked at his domineering daughter, and his eyes could not help showing pride, but then turned into worry. He coughed lightly and said:

"The princess's study companion still needs the approval of the nanny assigned to her by the emperor and the queen mother.

"I heard that the queen is still in charge of the harem, so I guess she doesn't have so much free time, and she has to handle everything personally all the time.

“Occasionally, when Her Majesty the Queen can still hold on, we’ll ask her to preside over a few events.

"It will also prevent rumors from spreading outside, saying that you have seized the power of the Queen, are domineering and arrogant, and that a demon concubine has descended into the world, and so on."
