Yuanchun of the Red Chamber is not a virtuous concubine

Mrs. Wang didn't dare to ask any more questions, so she just said, "Your Majesty, it's good that you know what's going on in your heart. As for the matter in Ningguo Mansion, your Majesty has come to a conclusion, so I'll let them arrange it as soon as possible. My Majesty doesn't know what to say if she says a word." Speaking of which, the Jia family and the Wang family don't have any suitable girls, I think that the girl's family over there has some influence in the Jiangnan generation, and there is nothing wrong with the fourth prince, and the empress can also consider it."

Mrs. Wang didn't say anything, Yuan Chun couldn't even think about it. Her son is only 11 years old. It's too early to prepare a concubine. Let them prepare, I will try to tell the emperor, as for the result, this matter has not come to the end, no one knows if there will be other accidents."

"That's good. The Ningguo Mansion sent people to the south to bring those girls to live in the capital first. Anyway, there are only two years left. It's okay to come to the capital early. If the empress is thoughtful, you might as well send a few girls from the palace. The nanny who came out taught me that it won't be too bad."

"I think girls from a scholarly family are not much different in terms of rules. There is no need to send a nanny there. Since I have agreed, I will naturally not be too strict with them." Yuan Chun naturally rejected Mrs. Wang's request to assign a nanny. Mama's suggestion.

Yuanchun chatted with Mrs. Wang about some other household matters. It happened that Tanchun had finished eating cakes, picked out what he liked, and came back to the main hall. Mrs. Wang looked at the time and decided to take Tanchun to leave, "My lady, if this year If you still want to go to the Old Summer Palace, please send a message to the family in advance, and then we will also go to the Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing, and even bought the surrounding land, which was also redecorated last year, maybe we can invite the empress to visit the garden."

Yuan Chun hummed, so many years have passed, those memories have faded a lot, Yuan Chun thinks that the plot of the Red Mansion has changed a lot, and he doesn't know if the current emperor will make an order to save his relatives.

No matter what, she would not apply for a family visit. Anyway, she often summons her family members, and it doesn't matter if she goes back or not. Besides, she has a garden in the suburbs. Even if the emperor orders her to visit her family, it won't cost much. of.

However, Yuan Chun thought that the emperor would not take her to the Old Summer Palace this year. The emperor will preside over the imperial examination in April. The time has not come yet, so she can't make a conclusion. But she has her own thinking and thinks that the emperor may stay this year. She was in the capital, and it was not easy for Yuan Chun to disclose it to Mrs. Wang before the decree was made.

"It's great that the garden has been repaired. Every year in the capital, it's sweltering in the summer. Now that there is a garden to live in, why does mother have to spend the summer in the house in the capital? You can also go there every year to escape the summer heat. You don't have to wait for me. After all, Once you enter the harem, there are always more rules in the palace than in other places, I am afraid that even if you go to Yuanmingyuan, it will not be easy to go to other places."

Mrs. Wang just remembered this incident, probably because Yuan Chun was the imperial concubine, and gained the power of the palace, and was in charge of the Old Summer Palace. It made Mrs. Wang forget that there was also a queen above Yuan Chun. The emperor said, "It's my fault. When it comes to socializing, I thought I was always cautious and didn't cause any trouble to the empress, but I didn't expect that I became arrogant, but fortunately, only me and the empress are here, otherwise I might cause some troubles to the empress."

"It's nothing. I also know that my mother is thinking about me. I just need to be more careful when I go out in the future. Our Jia family is considered safe. As long as we abide by the law, I will see it. If time is possible, I will naturally not forget my family members, and I hope that my mother will go back and tell the people in the clan what I said."

Mrs. Wang naturally nodded cautiously, and then she took the things rewarded by Yuanchun out of the palace, went back to Jia's house, and sent Tanchun back. Pearl called over and said, "Now your second master is at a critical time, and you have a heavy reading task. You must not disturb Baoyu. Although you are Baoyu's housemates given by the old lady, Baoyu is still young, so you must not be too aggressive. From now on, you will live with me in the backyard. Since you are Baoyu’s housekeeper, you must stay in the backyard with peace of mind. Don’t pass by the front yard, and you can’t go to Baoyu’s study. Do you understand? "

"The concubine understands everything, and obeys my wife's orders."

Mrs. Wang hummed and said, "I heard that your needlework is praised by the old lady. I will send someone to fetch some fabrics to your room later. When you are free, you might as well make some more robes for Baoyu to wear when you go out." , so that Baoyu can wear it when he goes out to socialize."

Qingwen also said cheerfully, "I understand, thank you for your trust, I will do well."

Pearl saw that Qingwen was valued by his wife, and she ordered an errand, but she was useless, but contrary to what Pearl thought, Mrs. Wang felt that Pearl was more in her mind, and she said to Pearl again, "You can go and help me when the time comes. , embroider a few more matching purses."

Pearl didn't dislike the trivial matter, so she should do it right away. Mrs. Wang waved her hand and asked them to retreat. As for Jia Zhu's aunt, she also arranged for a yard to live in first. Just calm down as Yuan Chun said, and Mrs. Wang didn't want to worry about it later. It's up to Jia Zhu to decide, the mother can't hold back her son.

After the end of April, as Yuan Chun guessed, the affairs of the DPRK and China were almost busy. The Empress Dowager had already obtained the list of accompanying drivers, and ordered her to pack her bags half a month in advance. The Empress Dowager was as good as ever. I was willing to go to the Empress Dowager, but I still didn't go, because the emperor has filial piety, and the empress accompanied him, so naturally the imperial concubine should stay in front of the empress dowager to fulfill her filial piety, not to mention that the children of Yuanchun had to stay in the palace to study, especially after the last parting. , the two young ones are even more attached to Yuan Chun, who is the mother-in-law. Seeing that the children are growing up, they will go to Elder Brother's place in the future, and they can spend less time with her in the harem. Yuanchun also does not want to miss the growth of the children.

Even though the emperor made such an arrangement to prove to the Supreme Emperor that their empress and empress had a harmonious relationship, it was also in consideration of the growth of several princes who needed Er Niang's company and care.The third prince is the third prince in name, but in fact, in terms of the ranking of the existing princes, he is the eldest son of the emperor in a sense. The emperor is not in the gap in the palace, and the third prince is the first prince of the emperor to enter the court to discuss politics. It has a certain deterrent effect.

Although the emperor did not confirm the meaning of the prince, he was afraid that he would not be appointed as a prince in the future. The other princes had not started to discuss affairs in the court, so there would be no troubles. At this stage, the emperor still trusted the third prince, so he deliberately left him in the palace. But this time, he brought Concubine Qi and Concubine Su with him, expressing his trust in the two, and also intended to appease his ministers. After all, the emperor decided on this list with some other intentions.

The emperor set off at the beginning of May and stayed in the Yuanmingyuan until the end of August, when he planned to return to the palace, but unfortunately, the emperor was ill and seriously ill, so he had to postpone the time to return to the palace. The princes in the inner city also After receiving this news, since the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor did not summon him, he could only be in a hurry but could not rush to Changchun Garden.

Fortunately, after a month, the Supreme Emperor survived this time. The October wind was a bit chilly. The Supreme Emperor was also grateful for the relationship between the royal family and the nobles in the past, and issued an imperial decree to allow him to enter the palace for many years. Concubines of honorable origins could go out of the palace to visit their relatives one after another at the end of the new year. Yuan Chun did not expect that the emperor had no intention of asking them to visit their relatives, but the Supreme Emperor had this intention.

But in the end, the emperor can't hold back the emperor, so he naturally asked them to prepare. After the emperor's order, basically half of the concubines are in this list. Yuan Chun said that anyway, the emperor doesn't like her now, and she doesn't want to please the emperor. The emperor's body It's not as good as before. Seeing that he won't have a good life for a few years, he doesn't plan to visit his relatives.

However, the Rongguo Mansion got the news, it meant to build a garden for Yuanchun to visit relatives, but I didn't see my mother-in-law from the list of relatives, so I was a little confused, and sent Mrs. Xing to the palace to inquire, anyway, it was also for Rongguo Mansion Put on a layer of glory, why not do it, could it be that the empress has a bad impression of the Rongguo Mansion, Mrs. Xing is inevitably a little uneasy, after all, she did not dare to tell her family in detail about the matter that she offended the empress before, this time entering the palace is also Uneasy, she was always afraid that her mother would turn her away and not receive her.

However, Yuan Chun did not do this. Judging from the information she received, the last deterrence was still effective, and it was time to meet the people from Rongguo Mansion, so that they would not think too much and make more mistakes, which would be unsightly.

"The minister's wife greets the imperial concubine and empress, and the imperial concubine and empress are blessed and safe."

Yuan Chun also waited for Mrs. Xing to complete the salute before calling out. It was completely different from the previous attitude of calling out without waiting for the full salute. Mrs. Xing felt even more sour, regretting why she was so rampant and forgot her sense of proportion.

"Come on, someone will give you a seat." Yuan Chun also said flatly, with no expression on his face to tell whether he was happy or not.

Mrs. Xing also sat down anxiously, and remained silent for a long time. Yuan Chun didn't talk about it like before, and she didn't say anything. Mrs. Xing could only lower her head again, and said, "I heard that there are many things that the empress wants to visit her relatives, only the list is down." Oh, why didn't I see the name of the empress, our master asked me to come in and ask, but the people below missed the empress, it really shouldn't be."

At any rate, Yuan Chun knew that the current emperor was a rather frugal emperor, so naturally he couldn't let the Rongguo Mansion do too much, so he just said lightly, "There is such a thing, but I refused."
