Jia Yingchun of the Red Chamber

Everyone naturally understood that this was the imperial palace's special envoy.

Since yesterday, Sister Feng has already prepared the incense case, and everything is available in Rongxi Hall.

Jia Amnesty ordered the middle door to be opened to welcome the special envoy, while Jia's mother, dressed up in class, led the whole Rongfu to line up in front of the Rongxi Hall to welcome him.

The eunuch who passed the decree came back, and it was still the eunuch Xia from yesterday.For a while, everyone knelt down to listen to the announcement. Eunuch Xia first read Jia Yuanchun's imperial decree, and everyone kowtowed to express their gratitude and stood up to say hello.Eunuch Xia said again: "Jia Yingchun, the grandson of Duke Rong of the Rongguo Mansion and the daughter of the second-class Wei Lie General Jia Enhou, received the order!"

A little girl had already moved out the mat for welcoming the spring and placed it in front of everyone. Yingchun knelt down and nodded, "My daughter Jia Yingchun accepts the decree!"

I am the only one who praises the transformation of the six palaces and loves the cultivation of women's jobs.The four virtues are suitable for the celebration of heaven and heaven.Shi Ji Yi Code.With ben badge.Zier Wang.Prepare the order early.Jiu Xian Nei Ze.The nature of sageness, although small, must be detailed.Yuan Yi's heart grows quieter every time.You are hereby canonized as Chongyuan, given the title of virtue, and given the residence of Yanxi Palace.

After yesterday's shock and shock, Yingchun's thoughts have gradually calmed down. The three characters of Yanxi Palace are located in Yingchun's heart. Yanxi Palace is in the courtyard of the palace. So Ningshou Palace.Adjacent to Cangzhen Gate, which is an important gateway to the East Sixth Palace of the inner court, it can be described as the most complicated place in the Forbidden City.

Fortunately, the emperor's ambition to welcome the spring is not with the emperor, but he just wants to live a long life, so he doesn't care much about it.

After the eunuch Xia delivered the imperial decree, he conveyed the emperor's oral order: "The Holy Majesty is considerate of the loyalty of the family, and sent the two girls into the palace to be loyal, and gave him special favors. En allowed to be the empress of the Yuan Dynasty on August [-]th, and on August [-]th. Enter the palace as a companion to marry."

This means that Yingchun still has one month to prepare for marriage.Moreover, you don't even need to embroider the wedding dress yourself for the wedding preparations for the Spring Festival, you have your own clan's house to prepare it.

Mother Jia finally couldn't help crying this time: "I thank the emperor Long En, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!"

Later, Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen, and Jia Lian were all grateful.

Yingchun was also very grateful, but she didn't feel like crying.

All of a sudden, Mother Jia came to look at it, and a girl dragged out six trays. The big one was gold ingots, followed by a plate of silver ingots, and then four trays of various jewels. This was the number of eunuchs visiting. As for whether eunuch Xia would like it or not Evenly distributed, Rong Mansion can't control it.

In view of the generosity of the Rongfu, Eunuch Xia added another sentence: "Don't worry about being a lady, Zhaoyi has moved to Chengqian Palace last night. This Chengqian Palace is far away from the emperor's residence except Kunning Palace and Qianqing Palace. In the nearest place, the favor of Empress Zhaoyi can be seen."

As soon as these words came out, Jia Mu immediately burst into tears: "This is all because of the care of my father-in-law." Another wave of rewards was offered, this time it was no longer gold, silver and jewelry, but antiques and jades. The eunuch laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth: "Dele, the Sa family will go back and report to their orders. Maybe on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Sa family will come to ask for a glass of wine!"

The whole family laughed like flowers: "This is not the glory I wish for!"

Being able to stay at home for more than a month, Yingchun felt a lot more relaxed. With this more than a month, Yingchun can arrange many things.

With the imperial decree, Rongfu welcomes many people to congratulate Mrs. Tianzhuang Gaoming, and many of them have daughters of the right age, and many of them send them here to accompany Yingchun. Wei Ruixuan is full of laughter every day, and it is very lively.

As a concubine's daughter, Yingchun doesn't have her mother's dowry to inherit. According to the standards of marquis married daughters, a concubine's daughter's dowry of [-] silver, plus a dowry of [-] silver from her husband's family is considered an honor.Now that the Spring Festival enters the palace to accompany the driver, this dowry can no longer be in accordance with the standards of the Hou family. Fortunately, the Ministry of Internal Affairs above the concubine has its own dowry reward. For example, if the folks need furniture and beds, there is no need to prepare, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs makes it according to the grade. manage.

According to Yingchun's own thinking, anyway, there are concubines serving in the palace, so there is no need to prepare any clothes and materials, just bring more bank notes.But Sister Jia and Feng refused, saying that the girl’s dowry is best spent at her husband’s house for a lifetime, so that she can be tough, and the concubines are the same, like those nobles Baolin who don’t have a dowry and are looking forward to the palace. , and rewarded by the emperor, that is a beggar.

The dowry of palace concubines has its own rules, 190 eight sets for the queen, 180 eight sets for the imperial concubine, 160 eight sets for the noble concubine, and 120 eight sets for the fourth concubine. The numbers are auspicious and do not exceed the rules.In Yuanchun, the dowry father had 120 silver coins, and Jia's mother had [-] silver coins. The rest was subsidized by the Wang family.

On the day they received the imperial decree, Jia pardoned Jia Zheng and Jia Lian to enter the palace again to express their gratitude.

That night, six relatives began to come to the house to add decorations for the Spring Festival.Among them, there are countless gold and jade vessels, so it is difficult to repeat them!

Just talk about gold and silver.The Spring Festival dowry is [-] silver from the public, and the rest is [-] silver from Jia Mu, Jia Amnesty gritted his teeth and gave [-] silver, Fengjie Jia Lian and his wife gave [-] silver, and Jia Zhen from Ningfu added [-] silver.In addition, Yingchun held the last [-] silver in her hand, and Yingchun meant that the [-] yuan should be incorporated into the public figure. Sister Feng said: "These are originally the expenses of the draft, and it is up to you to save yourself. Rongfu married a daughter and wanted the girl's private house." Yinzi, pass it on, and don't laugh it off and get yelled at!"

Sister Jia Mufeng asked Yingchun for her own opinion on the preparation of the dowry.

Yingchun thought that the Rong family had just paid off their debts, and if the dowry was too extravagant, they might provoke the censor to gossip about it. Therefore, Yingchun proposed that he buy his dowry at [-] silver, and let his family buy it for him in Xiaotang, Changping, Shandong Province for the rest of the money. Grange, on one side, the water flows for a long time, for a long time.

Yingchun took out [-] silver from her own body, combined with [-] from the addition of this time, a total of [-] silver, and handed it over to her elder brother Jia Lian.

Jia Lian has always been manipulated and brought up, no one has trusted him so much, even though the Rong Mansion was handed over to him recently, and Jia Mu Jia She is still on his head, he has not yet adapted to his status, so he does not reach out to pick him up. Yingchun money box, but the mood is very excited: "Second sister, you are so trusting as a brother?"

Yingchun gave a blessing to Sister Jialian and Feng: "From now on, whether the younger sister will live decently in the palace depends entirely on the care of her brother and sister-in-law."

The implication is that everyone still has a lifetime to support each other to live, and the money is not at ease, and there is no way to live this day!

Sister Feng was quicker than Jia Lian, she reached out her hand to block it, and said with a smile: "It's good to be at home, but it's not easy to live in the palace. The money is easy for me to keep for self-defense. As for my sister's expenses in the future, we, as brothers and sisters-in-law, rely on my sister. The money of the government and the younger sister's envoy, wouldn't it make sense to divide each other like this!"

Yingchun's heart skipped a beat. Although Yuanchun has not been named a concubine now, there is no guarantee that she will not be named a concubine in the future. At that time, she will have to visit her relatives again. According to what Sister Jia Lianfeng said, wouldn't she be going back to the old way?This is not good, I have paid for it myself, and I must not ask the emperor to count Rongfu again.It's time to vaccinate Jia Lian, because he said sternly, "Even though Sister Feng's words are for my own good, it's a big mistake."

Sister Feng Jia Lian looked at each other.

Yingchun smiled and said: "As the saying goes, I only ask one question about the water that my daughter spilled after marrying. Can Sister Feng still go back and ask for things from her natal family?"

Sister Feng bared her teeth: "What is it like? My surname is Jia..." Looking back, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Yingchun with a sneer: "Second sister is in a special situation. Of course we can't compare it with ordinary daughters!"

Yingchun shook her head: "Sister Feng is kind, but how can I treat my mother's family as my own money bag? I can help for a while, but not for a lifetime. This is the same for me and my brothers and sisters. Naturally, it is convenient. If there is an occasional shortage, the brothers and sisters-in-law should be relieved for a while, how can they rely on the brothers and sisters-in-law for a long time? , especially the elder brother and Baoyu working together to support, and relying on the inheritance of the nephews in the next life, what Sister Feng and the second elder brother think should be based on the development of Rongfu, how can they spend money recklessly for me, a married daughter?"

Sister Feng was stunned.

Jia Lian smiled: "My younger sister lives in the palace and is free from royal duties. Even if there is a shortage, how much does it matter? Your sister-in-law is right, my brother can still afford it!"

Yingchun smiled and said: "1000 and 300 are naturally affordable. What if I asked for two or three million silver a day to make a face for me? What about my brother? Could it be that I want to go bankrupt? Even if my brother has this silver, he should think about it. With so many factors out, what would the Holy Majesty think? What would the Censor Yanguan think? My brother also think about it himself, how much is Rongfu’s annual income, how much is it spent in a year, and a large amount of money is exposed to the public. In front of everyone, others will inevitably wonder, how did you get so much money?"

Jia Lian's complexion suddenly changed, the Lin family's money is now piled up in the treasury.The Lin family had an inheritance of money, but most of it came from the salt road. Uncle Lin participated in the operation of the salt field in private before his death.Salt and iron have always been national affairs, and once these things are leaked, it will be a big deal.

Yingchun knew that Jia Lian understood it very well: "Second brother and sister Feng should know about this matter, and they must know that the wealth will not be revealed. Unless it is absolutely necessary, don't leak the family information to others."

Jia Lian suddenly clasped his fists at Yingchun and bowed: "My sister's kind words, my brother has written them down!"

Yingchun said solemnly: "After I enter the palace, I will discuss this matter with my eldest sister. The ancestors and masters of the family are all old, and the second elder brother is the future lord. He will have the best idea in case of trouble. Don’t copy what others say.” Immediately, Yingchun handed the letterhead she had prepared in advance to Jia Lian: “This is a letterhead I left for my ancestors in advance, brother remember my words, if the mansion needs to spend more than one million silver at a time, let the ancestors open it immediately Second letter." Then he left a pair of jade pendants rewarded by the queen mother to Jia Lian: "This is the jade pendant rewarded by the queen mother. The ancestors and masters all recognize it. In the future, if the master commits a crime, he will suppress the second elder brother with his father, son, monarch and minister, and ask his elder brother To do something that violates human relations, etiquette and morality, the second elder brother can sacrifice this pendant, and use my mouth to suppress it, saying that I left an oral order before entering the palace. Fish and meat are next to each other, so you must not bully goodness, let alone participate, selling officials and nobles, buying and selling human lives!"

When Sister Feng heard this, her complexion turned pale.

Yingchun's eyes froze: "A gentleman loves money, and he gets it in a proper way. The Rong Mansion is not short of money now. There is my eldest sister in the palace to support it. In the mansion, there are Baoyu and Lan'er, and Wu Youhuan'er Cong'er. The second elder brother helps, and besides, there are some capable children in the clan, and the second elder brother can also recruit and train them for his own use. According to my observations these days, my family, Jia Yun and Jia Zhu, although they were lost when they were young, they serve The mother is extremely filial, and those who are filial must be loyal. In the future, when my brother recruits people from the clan, he will not only be capable, but also examine whether his character is virtuous and filial. Jiachang, who was recruited by my brother to make medicine in the mansion, once received money from the second wife, and privately The ginseng involved in Sister Lin's life Yangrong Pill was discovered by Zijuan, and Tanchun and Baoyu suppressed it, and secretly replaced the ginseng. Although Sister Lin was not damaged, it is hard to guarantee that he will not do it again in the future! "

Jia Lian gritted his teeth with resentment when he heard the words: "This bastard, he seems to be very well-behaved on weekdays, but he is ambitious. See if I don't skin him!"

Yingchun smiled: "A well-behaved person is not necessarily kind, and there is Jia Qin. Once again, I saw Brother Bao's servant Mingyan secretly joking, saying that Jia Qin's mother had no life, and she borrowed money from Sister Feng's sister-in-law Zhen. But go to Xiulou for a cup of five taels of silver to buy tea!"

Jia Lian immediately blushed, "I'm really blind!"

Yingchun said: "I said this not to blame brother, but to remind brother that in the future, when employing people, you must find out the details of the opposition, and don't be burdened by villains! Don't care about the rest, Jiachang, the second brother, sister Feng, is the best. It’s good to find a way to eradicate it, if you dare to attack your ancestor’s most beloved niece, it’s hard to guarantee that you won’t murder other masters in the future.”

Hearing this, Sister Feng was so frightened that her brow broke into a cold sweat, and she gritted her teeth in hatred: "Sister, just don't worry!"

Yingchun doesn't need to worry about the dowry, she just racks her brains to think about the foreseeable hidden dangers in the red building, and eliminates them in advance.

Yingchun counted with her fingers, Wang's illness is nothing to fear, Aunt Xue is just attached to the second wife, and the second wife is grounded to recuperate, she has become a toothless tiger, and it is difficult to hurt others.Xue Baochai has now been squeezed out by Sister Feng and has become a real guest lady, without the slightest right to speak in Jia's mansion.

She wanted to win over Baoyu to teach her, but now she has a serious teacher and is preparing to take the Imperial College entrance exam next year.

After thinking about it, it seems that there is no hidden danger that I can pull out.Today, I was chatting with grandparents and grandchildren in Jia's mother's room, but I heard a report from Xiaoya that it was Ma Daopo who came to spend money.

Yingchun's eyelids twitched wildly, how could he forget this goddess.Because she said to Sister Feng in private: "This kind of woman who walks around the house is the most nasty. Ma Daopo likes to hang out with Aunt Zhao. This kind of person is said to be a bit shady. She likes to make her privacy hurt others. She does everything for money. Dare to do it, I saw that Ma Daopo's eyes were wrong, fierce and sinister, now that the second wife is ill, Aunt Zhao is unavoidably worried, if these two people get together, I am afraid that something good will happen, my sister had better send someone to keep an eye on her, lest she Harm people."

When Sister Feng heard the words, she remembered that her sister Qiao fell ill every now and then, and she was afraid that these people had cursed her, so she gritted her teeth and said, "She dares!" But she sent someone to watch her.

It's enough to remind you about Yingchun, there is only one thing left now, which is Zicuckoo.

Three days passed, Zijuan came to look for the spring, but the girl had not been seen for three days, and her skin became more and more snowy.

Yingchun laughed at the first sight: "But have you ever tried Uncle Lin and Monk Scarlet to ask for the sea elixir?"

Zijuan was ashamed immediately: "It's all my fault, I wasted two drops of the girl's fairy medicine. I was going to come yesterday, but unexpectedly I didn't believe the girl's words. I mixed a glass of water with a drop of ginseng, and I drank it all night. I can't get up because of it."

Yingchun was stunned. After drinking the Lingquan, she was sweating profusely and covered in dirt. Daiyu was also like this. How could Zijuan have diarrhea?

"Is your body uncomfortable?"

Zijuan shook her head: "That's not true, it's just that after pulling it, the servant girl feels more refreshed, and her complexion is much brighter!"

Yingchun didn't know the reason for this, because she said: "This is also the reason I want to dilute it. Miss Lin is originally weak, if she is like you, wouldn't it be counterproductive!"

Because of this, Zijuan was faithful, and directed towards Yingchun with a blessing: "The servant girl will definitely live up to the master's expectations, the girl entrusts her!"

It's just that if I give Zijuan a gourd like this, I'm afraid that someone will see through her plan, which will harm her master and servant.Yin said: "You go first, and I will find you after I think of a compromise!"

That night, Yingchun entered the space again, wandering around the thatched hut by the lake, thought that the lake was lifeless, but found a goldfish in the lake one day, suddenly became excited, scooped it up with a butterfly net, and the clinker After scooping it up, the fish left the water, and its body grew dozens of times, becoming a mermaid about two meters long, with a human head and a noodle, and a fish tail. It kowtowed to Yingchun on the ground: "The koi pays homage to its new owner! "

The little fish turned into a mermaid, and even started talking, Yingchun was so frightened that she almost wet her pants: "You, you, you..."

Jinli said: "Xiaoyao was persecuted by thieves back then, abolishing her thousand-year-old practice, kicking it away and finally cultivating three dragon scales. She was between life and death, but luckily Ziyi Fairy saved her. From then on, she settled down here and practiced again!"

Yingchun frowned: "Fairy in purple clothes? Is it a portrait of that mansion? Where is she?"

The koi wept and said, "The purple-clothed fairy failed in the end, the flower god failed, and was wiped out by lightning!"

Demons and ghosts, this is harming the ancestors.Yingchun retreated quietly, her whole body on alert.

But the koi seemed to be able to read people's hearts, and suddenly smiled wryly: "Master, don't misunderstand, this space is where the purple-clothed fairy practiced back then. I was defined by the purple-clothed fairy as a space elf. Only when the space recognizes the master can I activate my life. Once the master dies, I have to enter a dormant period and wait for the next master to arrive before I can continue cultivating immortality, so don't worry, the master, the little demon will definitely not harm the director!"
