Jia Yingchun of the Red Chamber

The next day, the twelfth day of the first lunar month.

After Jia Lian heard the news, he argued with Jing Zhaoyin, but because of the power of Xu Guogong's mansion, Rong's mansion ended in failure.

Jia Lian was so angry that he vomited blood, and when he returned home, he fell ill and fell into bed.

The Rongguo Mansion, which was hot and noisy in the past years, please eat and eat until the fifteenth day, the Rongguo Mansion is deserted this year because the head of the family, Jia Lian, is ill. When you go out for a stroll, you only need to enter and exit through the side door at the entrance.

The whole family closed their doors and closed their doors to live.

The news that the Xu family bullied the Rongguo Mansion and allowed the disciples to wantonly insult the meritorious family quietly spread among the relatives and nobles in the capital.

Although the Xu family is so powerful that no one dares to compete with it, there are many families who secretly hold grievances for the Jia family.

After that, everything came according to Yingchun's calculation.

The Xu family wrote a recommendation form for Sun Shaozu, and when the Ministry of War tried to extort more money from him, the emperor suddenly spoke in the courtroom, and the Ministry of Military Affairs of Zhuo would supply all the people who would fill the military post, and immediately escorted food and grass to the sea.

Sun Shaozu suddenly wanted to cry but had no tears, he posted the money, and now he is going to risk his life again!

The Xu family comforted Sun Shaozu to just go, because after three months, Mr. Xu will go to Haijiang to supervise the affairs. At that time, Sun Shaozu will be guarded in front of him, and he will not be sent to the front to die.

Following the imperial decree, having the Xu family's promise is better than no promise, so Sun Shaozu had no choice but to go into battle and arrange family affairs, because the Ministry of War had already planned the departure date, which was on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

It wasn't until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month that Jia Mu and Sister Feng got up and went to the palace to congratulate them. Baoyu Jiahuan and Jia Cong followed the sedan chair.

This time Baoyu came to the palace to thank him, and followed Jiamu to Ningshou Palace.

The empress dowager intended to be merciful, leaving Yuanchun and Yingchun sisters behind.

Baoyu paid homage to the Empress Dowager, and under the guidance of Nanny Gui, bowed to the Yuanchun Yingchun sisters: "This is the Empress Xiangui, and this is the Empress Defei!"

Baoyu saluted and kowtowed, with a trembling voice, with a long and long tail: "My minister bows to the empress of the virtuous and noble concubine, the empress is blessed, and bows to the empress of the virtuous concubine, the empress is Kangtai."

Yingchun is better, she hasn't seen Baoyu for only a year.

Yuan Chun almost cried when he saw the precious jade like Zhilan Yushu.

The two sisters were in a daze, staring at Baoyu, forgetting to call Pingshen.

Baoyu just knelt with her buttocks out, wanting to peek but didn't dare.

In the end, it was the Empress Dowager who said, "Young Master Jia, let's get back down!"

Only then did Yuan Chun realize that he had lost his composure, and hurriedly stretched out his hand: "Get up, get up, get up!"

The Empress Dowager understood Yuan Chun's gaffe very well, and waved her hand: "Mr. Jia and Mrs. Rong Guohou have your sisters to entertain me. I will talk to Mrs. Rong."

For a while, the sisters said to the palace, Yuanchun held hands with Baoyu, crying with tears and snot.

Yingchun exchanged the latest information with Sister Feng.

Sun Shaozu was like a demon in Yingchun's heart, and Yingchun was worried that Jia Lian would be broken: "How about the second brother? Didn't you say to let the slaves do it? Why did the second brother go into battle in person?"

Sister Feng said angrily: "The old man is a sacred existence in our house. Your second brother has always respected the old ancestor like a god, how can you allow others to slander him? Now your brother is not what he used to be. He is not in his eyes, the second master said, if the second sister hadn't told him not to beat Sun Shaozu to a disability, it would still be useful to keep him, your second brother would have discounted his return.

"Damn thing, our old ancestor said that the ancestors of the Sun family wanted to kneel down to give our old grandfather a foot in order to ask for our old grandfather's support, but now they are talking nonsense. Our old grandfather has made great achievements in battle. A bastard son, a tortoise grandson, Hu Qin!"

Sister Feng spat with hatred when she said that: "I met him, I met him and beat him to death! I have already sent a letter to my uncle, even this Sun Shaozu went to Haijiang, and told him to go and never return!"

Yingchun hurriedly waved his hands: "You must not. Now that the enemy is in front of you, this is the righteousness of the country. You must not play tricks. If people find out, you will die. Then Sun Shaozu is now the prey in the trap. Qiu The last grasshopper, it won’t be long. Don’t get our hands dirty. It’s not easy for Uncle Wang to get to where he is today. Don’t let the villain drag you down. After my sister returns, she will quickly send a reliable person to catch up with the previous messenger, The letterhead was destroyed. The elder sister told the second elder brother that he did a good job this time, and asked him to stay away from the Xu family, but don't confront the Xu family head-on, just stay away from each other forever!"

Sister Feng was very moved when she heard the words: "What my sister is worried about is that my lack of thoughtfulness almost made uncle passive."

Yingchun's forehead: "The uncle of the Shi family has gone bad, and he is still in prison. Once the war in the sea area stabilizes next year, they will definitely be liquidated. Therefore, after Sister Feng returns, she must cut off the practice with the Shi family in the mansion and tell the ancestors, Shi Jiashu is involved in the ink corruption case in Ping'an Prefecture, don't be greedy for cheap, accept the Shi family's money, and would rather post money in the future to help them get back to life, and don't be smart and poke the emperor's heart!"

Sister Feng was terrified when she heard the words, but these days the historians came in and out of Jia's house very frequently, maybe they were just pretending to let Rong's house hide things for them.

In order to be vigilant against Sister Feng, Yingchun decided to tell Sister Feng the inside story of the Xu family, and said: "Sister, do you know why the Xu family donated millions of silver and the Holy One ignored it, while the second elder brother only donated tens of thousands of silver, but the Holy One valued it very much?"

Sister Feng stared.

Yingchun whispers usually tell Sister Feng two words: "Salt tea!"

Sister Feng was very smart, raised her eyebrows and asked in surprise, "Where's Zhen?"

Yingchun smiled on his forehead: "So, right now, the family is taking advantage of the matter with the Xu family's big tiger, Sun Shaozu, to make a gesture that there is no place to complain. From now on, until the war in the coastal areas comes to an end, our family will thank guests behind closed doors. , the monthly meeting was also cancelled, and I told my ancestors that Tanchun and Baoyu should keep a low profile, and it is best to find a reason for the marriage, set it at the end of the year, or simply postpone it until tomorrow spring!"

Sister Feng raised her eyebrows.

Yingchun immediately waved her hand: "Don't ask why, I just don't think this year is suitable, and next year will be our good year!"

Sister Feng smiled immediately, showing a pair of white canine teeth: "Succeed, I can't decide this matter at will, the matter of persuading the ancestors is on my shoulders!"

Yingchun immediately remembered about Jia Zhen, and hurriedly asked, "Is Fourth Sister still at home?"

Sister Feng immediately changed her complexion: "Brother Zhen hurt the old ancestor's heart this time. Sun Shaozu's beast insulted our old man, but Brother Zhen didn't say a word. The news was sent to us by outsiders with two surnames. The fourth sister heard that I went back and had a fight with sister-in-law You, and I was going to become a monk, but it is easy to become a monk, and the temple is not a clean place. Does the second sister remember the son of the Qin family? The whole family died at the hands of the nun. It’s gone. Now those sisters-in-law in the temple, in the eyes of the rich and noble, they exist like prostitutes. Since the Qin family’s family was wiped out, now the rich and deep houses in the capital are not happy to let nuns in, for fear of harming the men at home!”

The corners of Yingchun's mouth twitched when she heard the words, she didn't expect that Zhizhi'er was responsible for the destruction of the Qin family.

Thinking of Xichun, Yingchun can only sigh. The best way out for Xichun is to marry a kind family right away. When something happens in Ningfu, she is a married woman and will not be implicated. However, Xichun is only 13 now. At the age of [-], it is acceptable to be engaged, but the age for marriage is too young. Furthermore, the Ning Mansion is still the General's Mansion right now, and Xi Chun, a third-rank official's sister, cannot marry without drafting.

Thinking of this, Yingchun can only sigh.For all the sisters, Yingchun has a way to change their fate, but Xichun's fate seems to be a dead end.

Unless you rely on Xichun now and let her become a monk to practice, otherwise, you will not escape the fate of being a prostitute.

Although the Rong Mansion could buy her back home, but since she was a wealthy family and became a sin slave, she might not be able to get over the hurdle in her heart.

Or, let her enter the palace for the draft, and she can escape the control and buy it, but unfortunately, the emperor has already said that she will, and the draft will be postponed for three years.

Yingchun couldn't help but sigh.

Sister Feng also said that something was wrong with Yingchun, so she quietly asked: "I heard outside the palace that the empress Xiangui is holding the emperor every day these days and forbidding him to go to other people's palaces, is it true?"

Yingchun smiled: "Who is talking nonsense? The emperor didn't have it. He went to visit the empress in the Kunning Palace a while ago. To be honest, it is true that the emperor seldom went to the harem after his last year."

Sister Feng sighed: "That's good, I was terrified when I heard it, outsiders fight is inevitable, let's not fight among ourselves, let outsiders see the joke."

Thinking of the strategy you gave yourself to conceive a child in the distance, Yingchun felt embarrassed, Yuan Chun would not compete with her for favor right now, at least before she gave birth to her son, Yuan Chun would not compete with her for favor.Sui said: "This is nonsense in itself. Sister Feng, don't want to repeat what others say, and spread falsehoods. The affairs of the palace are related to the ancestral temple of Sheji. They are not for outsiders to spy on and discuss. If Sister Feng hears this again in the future, just ask her face to face, and don't call her out." People figured it out, and they jacked up the tank for others."

Sister Feng immediately restrained her smile when she heard the words, and said seriously: "Second sister reminded me that when I heard this, I only felt strange. I thought my wife was talking too much, and I didn't know the truth of the matter, so I pretended I didn't hear it, and almost let it go. gone."

Yingchun was surprised when she heard the words, just now what Yingchun said was just to remind Sister Feng around the corner, but she didn't expect that Sister Feng heard it from somewhere else, she frowned and said, "Where did Sister Feng hear it?"

Sister Feng said: "It's the speaker's identity that makes people convincing, otherwise I wouldn't believe it. It was just a year ago that I went to the Northern Palace to give the old princess amber wine. When I came out, the old princess asked her natal nephew and daughter-in-law Send me out, she said so, if she is only the nephew and daughter-in-law of the old concubine, I still don't believe her, but she is the younger sister of Concubine Xu, the queen's cousin, I just took care of it, these days, I have always kept it in mind, because I was afraid of revealing the word, the old ancestor was worried, and I didn't even tell your second brother."

Yingchun bit her lip, this is really a narrow road, there are Xu family members everywhere.

Ignorant and lowly stuff, is this trying to instigate a quarrel between myself and Yuan Chun?

Yingchun's eyes froze, and said: "Sister Feng, tell the old ancestor what she said when she went back, and let the old ancestor find a way to reveal it to the old princess. We can't afford to say this, and we are sincere and frightened! I beg the old princess to look after the family friends of the two families." For the sake of this, please help and explain to Concubine Xu and the sisters that the emperor is really busy with government affairs, not because he favors or favors others, but because he has no time to stay in the harem."

Sister Feng was stunned: "This, this, okay? Will the old concubine be unhappy?"

Yingchun sneered: "The old concubine should be grateful to us. If it weren't for our mansion's close contact with the Beiwang mansion, and the king of Beijing County is the emperor's right arm and right arm, he values ​​it very much. I will definitely pass this word to the queen mother. At that time, the girls of the Xu family were not copying the female rings, but a big matter of losing their minds."

Sister Feng was startled, and pulled Yingchun to persuade her: "Well, it's better not to tell the empress dowager, the king of Beijing County is really good to our manor."

Yingchun's forehead: "It is because of knowing the benefits of the King of Beijing that I leave the Xu family's daughter with dignity. However, our sisters don't just grind their teeth after tea and dinner. She chews like this in front of Sister Feng. , must be confident. We should give her a loud slap in the face and let the people behind her know that the era when the Xu family covered the sky with one hand is over."

The next day, the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

Sun Shaozu led [-] soldiers to escort the first batch of grain and grass and set off.

In the evening of that day, Jinli received the news that the princess of Beijing County was grounded by the old princess, and the concubine sister of Princess Xu, or cousin, was ordered by the old princess to take a bamboo board and open her mouth twenty times to beat her. When it was over, they sent someone to send the nephew and his wife back to the old house in the capital.
