Xichun, the first daughter of the Red Chamber

After listening to the old woman's words, holding the piano, he was stunned. He went to the grave by himself, looked at the tombstone for a while, and then started digging.

The old woman was worried that she followed her, seeing her like this, she hurried forward to stop her, "Good girl, what are you doing?!"

Baoqin bit her lip and stared at her hand, "Mom, help me find something to dig the soil."

Baoqin looked up at the old woman, "I have to...see it with my own eyes."

The old woman sighed, "Okay, the old woman will help you."

The two dug up the tomb with something, revealing the coffin.

As soon as Bao Qin saw the [-]% new coffin, she believed the old woman half to eight in her heart, but she still insisted on opening the coffin with trembling hands.

There were some white bones scattered in the coffin, even four or five hand bones.

Baoqin knelt on the ground and wailed loudly.

The old woman patted Baoqin's back lightly, but she didn't know how to persuade her.

After holding Qin and crying enough, she got up and closed the coffin, and then planted the soil back little by little.

After doing all these well, Baoqin turned around and knelt down to kowtow to the old woman, "Mom's great kindness, Baoqin will never be forgotten!"

The old woman quickly helped her up, "What are you doing, Miss? I just took the girl's money to do things for the girl."

Baoqin refused to get up, "Although mom took my money, maybe it was because of my painstaking efforts to find out the truth because my mother was really good to me. Baoqin's kneeling, mom can bear it!"

Baoqin handed all the money on his body, as well as the jasper hairpin on the bracelet in his hand, to the old woman, "Today, Baoqin came to worship the family. I didn't bring any money, and I didn't dare to look happy. All these It's not much money, mom will keep it first, and I will send some in a few days."

The old woman refused, and Baoqin cried again: "Mom, now you are the only one I can trust. Baoqin begs Mom to do one more thing for Baoqin."

The old woman slowed down her refusal, "What's the matter?"

Baoqin kowtowed to the old woman again, "Mom, please go to the temple for me, light a long-burning lamp for my family, and give up a few catties of sesame oil every year."

Baoqin cried and said: "Mom, please take pity on me, please help me, mother's great kindness, Baoqin will never be forgotten in this life, and I will definitely repay you in the next life."

The old woman's eyes were sour from crying while holding the piano, and she nodded her head in response.

Baoqin burned the joss paper money he brought again, "I don't know who you were and where you came from. Today, I met you by fate, and I will send some incense to you. I hope you can reincarnate as soon as possible."

Baoqin went back to the palace, and before she could sit still, a little maid came to her with a smile, "Sister Baoqin, the empress is happy!"

Baoqin was stunned, "What did you say?"

The little palace maid blushed with excitement, "I felt uncomfortable when I came here this morning. When I ate breakfast, I smelled the fish porridge and immediately vomited. We quickly invited the imperial physician to come, and the imperial physician knelt down to congratulate me after taking the pulse... "

Baoqin couldn't listen to what was said later, she looked down at the soil stains on her clothes, and only recovered after the little palace maid called her, and said with a smile: "It's such a big good thing, I have to go and talk to the empress Hi, ask for a reward."

The little maid also laughed, "Your Majesty has talked about my sister several times today, so hurry up and go."

Baoqin nodded, "I'll change my clothes and go."

After changing his clothes, he put on his makeup carefully, looked left and right in the mirror, and went out to see Jia Yuanchun after he felt that he couldn't see anything.

Jia Yuanchun was sitting leaning against the head of the bed, smiling when she saw her coming, "I was wondering why you didn't come back, but you just came."

Baoqin smiled and said: "I don't know why today, I always think about the empress, so I came back early. This time I know why the servant is uneasy. It turns out that I noticed the happy event of the empress!"

Jia Yuanchun unconsciously stroked his stomach, "You're the only one who can say it!"

Baoqin kept screaming for innocence, "It's clear that the servants are all attached to the empress, and that's why they noticed the happy event of the empress in advance."

Holding the piano and coaxing Jia Yuanchun for a long time, he coaxed Jia Yuanchun into a smile, only thinking that he must be a prince in his stomach, and in the future he will be a prince and king, and she will be superior to her mother by virtue of her son.

On the second day, Baoqin got up early in the morning, but before he went out, he was stopped by a little maid with a smile, "Sister, my mother said that you are tired these days, so why not rest for a few days first."

Baoqin felt strange in his heart, but he didn't show it. He smiled and said, "Your Majesty loves me, so I should go and thank you."

The little palace maid smiled, "Your Majesty said, my sister will definitely come to thank you when she found out. My Majesty asked me to tell my sister that there is no need to go, and it is true to rest for a few days."

Baoqin nodded with a smile, then took the maid's hand and smiled, "Good sister, tell me, who are the people who are serving in front of the empress now? I have been with the empress for so many years, and I let go now. I feel a little uneasy.”

The palace maid smiled, "Sister, don't worry, the one who is serving in front of the empress is Sister Chuqin."

Xiqin is a court lady who came after Jia Yuanchun became a concubine. She has clever means, and she became the female official serving Jia Yuanchun in just half a year. Her name was also changed by Jia Yuanchun after becoming a female official. Following Baoqin's name, Because of this, others say that Baoqin is still important in the empress's heart, but Baoqin knows that Chaiqin is now on an equal footing with her.

Baoqin knew in his heart that this time it must be the fault of Zaiqin.

He went back to the house with the piano in his arms, and after thinking for a while, he secretly called the little maid who was familiar with him on weekdays, and asked her to find out why the empress suddenly asked her to rest.

A day later, the little maid came.

"Sister Xiqin said that the mother has a happy event, but the elder sister has a funeral. This collision may not be good for the prince in her womb."

Baoqin sneered inwardly, laughing at how much Zaiqin could even use such an excuse, and also at how Jia Yuanchun really alienated her because of such a reason.

The little palace maid said vaguely again: "According to the mother's opinion, it is estimated that the elder sister will wait until the little prince is born."

Baoqin sent the little maid away with a smile, and looked at the palace where Jia Yuanchun was in meditation.

This is the young lady she has devoted everything to serving...

Ever since Jia Yuanchun became pregnant, the Rongguo Mansion, which was about to go to heaven, was really preparing to go to heaven.

The whole day was full of guests, silver and treasures flowed into the warehouses of the Rongguo Mansion like flowing water, and even the servants below went out with their nostrils upturned.

When preparing to worship the ancestors at the end of the year, the Rongguo Mansion even proposed that they should be at the forefront. They also said that no one in the East Jiajia Mansion can preside over the important sacrifices, so it is better to let them do it.

Xichun almost laughed angrily, but it didn't take long for them to start shaking, and they dared to miss the head of the Jia family.

Xichun didn't dare to let Jia Jing know about it, so she blocked it by herself.

First, he united with all members of the Jia family to put pressure on the Rongguo Mansion, not saying that the etiquette cannot be broken, but what contribution the Rongguo Mansion has made to the Jia family over the years.

Xichun invited all the Jia family members who had been close to Rongguo Mansion recently, and told them in detail what the East Mansion and Rongguo Mansion had done over the years, and let them choose for themselves.

Xichun drank tea slowly at the side, "Concubine Xiande is indeed pregnant, but she is pregnant in October, who knows if there will be any accidents, will she be a prince after birth? How long will it take for the prince to grow up? And Which of the concubines who have been pregnant in the palace these years is not cautious, and how many are trembling like the Rongguo Mansion? The Rongguo Mansion is now aiming to control the Jia family, but when you think about what happened in these years, I really think they have become Will the patriarch treat the clan well?"

It is true that Rongguo Mansion has a virtuous concubine, but Rongguo Mansion coaxed many clansmen to relocate due to the gardening, and did not give them the money they agreed to. Now it is just forced to take Rongguo Mansion. How much was provoked by the Rongguo Mansion, not to mention that it's not really impossible for the Jiajiadong Mansion to host the sacrifice now.

Xichun said again: "Now that my father is in good health, I only need my father to watch over the sacrifices, and the rest will be handled by the people below. In the end, it is enough for my father to preside over it. After all, after so many years, everyone has experience."

Everyone was shaken, and finally refused to let the Rongguo Mansion host the sacrifice.

The Rongguo Mansion couldn't do anything, and finally tried to let them stand in the first row during the sacrifice.

Xichun agreed, and she made up her mind that when the time comes, she and Jia Jing will go to the East Mansion. Jia Jing is the host standing in the center, and she is serving Jia Jing on the side. There is no one standing in the first row, and they will stand if they want to. .

On the day of the New Year's Eve sacrifice, the Rongguo Mansion almost exploded with anger. It is true that Xichun let them stand in the first row, but she and Jia Jing stood in the center and presided over the sacrifice together. They all went up a row!

After the sacrificial ceremony, the people from Rongguo Mansion all left, and they didn't even come to discuss matters in the clan afterwards. Seeing this, those members of the Jia family were even more fortunate that they didn't choose Rongguo Mansion.

Mother Jia and the others returned to the Rongguo Mansion and gathered together to discuss matters. They discussed how to take over the position of the head of the Jia family, so as to control the Jia family.

Jia Zheng frowned unhappy, "Those tribesmen are not close to the Rongguo Mansion, and they can't use much energy, why bother with these gods? It's better to ask the empress to find an errand for Baoyu and me, so that we can be loyal to the Supreme Emperor as soon as possible."

Jia's mother laughed and said, "It's a serious matter to be loyal to the Supreme Emperor as soon as possible, but we can't give up the position of the head of the Jia family."

Mother Jia thought clearly that if they could control the Jia family, not to mention the help of the empress, they would also be able to prevent the Jia family from being unfavorable to them.

After all, almost half of the Jia family in Beijing suffered a lot for building this garden.

Jia Zheng nodded, "I just listen to my mother."

The people in Rongguo Mansion thought well, but the news came from the palace on the second day that Concubine Xiande was revealed to be a fake pregnancy, and she lost her manners at the family banquet in the Palace of New Year's Eve, and was deprived of her title of concubine by the Supreme Emperor , into the limbo.

The people in Rongguo Mansion are all dumbfounded!How could such a happy event become like this?He was also sent to the cold palace!

Jiamu Wang hurriedly went to the palace to inquire about the news, but the eunuchs who usually opened their mouths like lions didn't even see him this time, and they didn't inquire about any news.

Jia Jing and Jia Amnesty knew that the Supreme Emperor was going to do something, but he didn't expect to do it on a day like New Year's Eve, but when he thought about the false pregnancy of Concubine Xiande, he also understood.

Now, they just need to wait quietly for the Supreme Emperor's final disposition.

But none of them thought the waiting time would be so long.

On the ninth day of the first lunar month, General Wu of the Lingnan Navy urgently reported that Qianxiang Kingdom had invaded, and General Wu and others were fighting hard, asking for support from the imperial court.
