The Red Chamber is not a dream

[Chapter 140 Ninth] The True Dragon Lord has completed the vows of the ancestors and the mandarin ducks vowed to repay the favor of the old master

In addition, because of the decree of the first emperor, Yuyu summoned all the officials and ascended the throne at dawn; he also decreed that the third prince was a wolf with ambition, saying that he ordered people to poison the present, and had an affair with foreign countries; Back then, when the prince was framed, the empress and the four princes were killed, and Lin Hai was poisoned, the soldiers were hand-picked to fight against the rebels in the name of the new emperor.

As soon as this decree came out, there was an uproar in the world, and all the evidence was conclusive, and they all scolded the third prince for being unfilial and disrespectful, falsely accusing the elder brother, harming the aunt, killing loyal ministers, and poisoning the father. Many people who previously attached to the third prince also became loyal to Yun Yubiao, all because they were deceived by him that day.Zhenyu spoke nicely to appease them, and did not add any crimes; sure enough, the three princes betrayed their relatives, and they were the same group of defeated soldiers who fled to the Hebei area;

Yunyu heard that Chaozong sent a secret report, so she thought: "Old General Feng wants to capture him at this time, so it's like picking something out of a bag. But if he is captured alive, can he still be pushed out of the Meridian Gate and beheaded? If a glass of poisoned wine is finished, but the It's cheaper for him." Therefore, he secretly instructed Chaozong not to capture him, but to kill him on the spot.When Emperor Chaozong got the order, he indeed sent three hundred archers to shoot the third prince and the rest of the party to death with random arrows.

That Xiang Yu heard the end of the third prince, and said to herself: "Now Fang has avenged the former empress and the original owner of this body. Only in the future, I have to guard the country carefully, so that the wish of the late emperor has been fulfilled." So first It’s all about worshiping in front of the spirit of the former emperor and the first empress, but decreed that the three princes should be abolished as common people and buried outside the city; and they would also go to the place where the prince was buried to worship, posthumously confer the title of prince, and let people choose a day to move into the imperial mausoleum , They were buried on the side of the emperor's tomb.After the matter was settled in this way, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was repeated, and the year name was changed to Ningyong.The former emperor's righteous daughter, Lin, was named Princess Anhe. Because the new emperor is not married now, the princess temporarily holds the Phoenix seal.However, it is said that the first emperor did not have many concubines in the harem, and since the death of the first empress, he has never re-established an empress; the mother of the third prince, Concubine Cheng, died of illness a few days ago, and the remaining concubines, concubine Ping, are all aged man of.Therefore, there were officials who said that the founding emperor of this dynasty had an old rule that all the concubines left by the previous emperor should be buried; but the new emperor said: "Although the ritual of burial has existed since ancient times, all the ladies have served the emperor for many years. , is a person of merit; besides, when I was young, I was lost outside and was not allowed to serve in front of my father, so I also received the favor of all the ladies, so this old practice cannot be followed. The concubine, the concubine's mansion, the fields, etc., as well as the means of living, were taken out by the children of the mother's family to take care of them.

This decree is praised by everyone in the court, inside and outside; those from the concubine's mother's family are also grateful, so speechless.The new emperor also pardoned the world and rewarded the ministers who made meritorious deeds on that day. Among them was the second son of Mei Hanlin, the second son of Mei Hanlin, who was named Mei Xinfang.But Xinfang is a very loyal and patriotic person. Before seeing that there were not many people who could be used in the court, he felt anxious. On that day, Qi Yuyu called him to see him, so he took the opportunity to play and said: "A few years ago, the traitors controlled the court. For a time, all horses are silent, and the reputation of Confucianism in the world will not be ashamed; now that His Majesty is on the throne, it is the time when the people's hearts want, it is not as good as recruiting talents and thinking that they will be used for great success."

Hearing this, Yan Yu took it for granted, but said with a smile, "What Fu Qing said is very true. It's just that all the old scholars are old now, and Fu Qing is not allowed to refuse this matter of selecting talents." Mei Xinfang was overjoyed when she heard the words, But he got up and saluted and said, "I will live up to your majesty's trust." So Yuyu issued an order the next day to set up an additional Enke;

After the court that day, when Jinyu returned to the palace, she asked someone to invite Daiyu to come, and said to him, "It has been a long time, and no one has come to the house yet. This is waiting for us to invite you." Yu knew what Yunyu was talking about, and said, "My brother has given him many opportunities, but I don't want it, but I can blame that one." Yu Suo thought that if Jia Zheng came to plead guilty, the matter would be exposed for the time being.Gein previously pardoned many people who came here from the side of the third prince, and there is no reason to punish him alone; it's just that Jia Zheng doesn't come here now, but it's an opportunity for Yunyu to make use of it.What's more, Jinyu has always disliked Mrs. Wang's actions. When she heard Daiyu say this, she said to him: "The next day is the death day of the former queen, and all the wives of every family will enter the palace to worship. You should first hit Wang's a few words; look at him How to do it."

When Daiyu heard this, she nodded in agreement.Yu Yu said again: "When the late emperor was here, he still cared about those two mansions. The old lady had something to say that day, so it wouldn't hurt his life. But I just reprimanded you a little to vent your anger." Dai Yudao: "Why don't you mention the things about childhood." Yunyu said: "You want to be magnanimous, but I am stingy. He offended you, just like offending me; now you scold him once, and it is also a substitute." I'm venting my anger." Because there are all close friends in the palace, the two of them talked casually, and Jinyu never called herself "I", but you and I still match each other; hearing this, Daiyu thought to herself: "Brother, I will only ask you Thinking about it, I am still dissatisfied with the second wife. It's just that he is now the king of a country, so he can't do it himself, at least he has to ask me to do it for him; anyway, since he said so, I just obey." So I was blessed, and said: "Sister Chen obeys orders." So speechless.

However, when Jia Zheng heard the news of the failure of the third prince, he couldn't help feeling like sitting on pins and needles, and he was in constant panic, but he felt a little lucky, and secretly thought that although he had no choice but to frame Yunyu that day, he never did it. Maybe Yunyu I don't know, and I don't know.Besides, he is Daiyu's uncle. It is not known whether Jinyu reads on Daiyu's face or has some gifts.After a few days like this, no matter the reward or punishment, it has no effect at all. I can't help being more surprised and suspicious, and dare not talk to others.

Mrs. Xiang Wang heard that Xue Die and others were awarded, but she felt uneasy, and she said to Jia Zheng, "Xue's boy is just his adopted brother, so he has such a reward; Baoyu and Lin girl are cousins ​​and cousins. You can't do anything anyway, so it can be seen that Miss Lin is ungrateful." Jia Zheng hurriedly shouted: "Shut up! How can you say this?" Seeing that Jia Zheng was angry, Mrs. Wang dared not mention it again, but she just wanted to He thought to himself: "In a few days, it will be the death day of the first queen, and all the wives of all families should enter the palace to worship; why don't you take this opportunity to talk to Lin girl, if you can ask for a reward for Baoyu, you don't have to go to the palace every day Price is studying hard."

So Mrs. Wang made up her mind, because she thought again: "The old lady originally intended to match Lin girl with Baoyu, but it is a pity that he went home in the future and never mentioned it. If this was done that day, Baoyu is now Son-in-law, where do I need to beg him?" After thinking about it for a while, he fell asleep and didn't mention it.

Now let's not show others for the time being, let's talk about mandarin ducks.Because Jiamu passed away on the same day as the first emperor's guest day, she never went to Lin's house. Later, she heard that Daiyu had become a princess. I couldn't help being anxious about the entrusted matter, and thought to myself: "Now that Miss Lin has become a princess, she only sits up and sits in the palace, how can I see him?" Wanting to go to the palace to pay homage to the first queen, my heart moved, so I went to find Mrs. Xing, and said to him: "I want to ask the eldest lady one thing. Although it is impolite in the clothes, this head must be kowtowed. Mrs. Xing hurriedly pulled him up and said, "Good boy, what do you want? You just say it."

Yuanyang saw Mrs. Xing like this, so she said what Jia's mother entrusted before her death, and said, "I am the person on the card, where can I see the princess? It's just that the old lady loved me a lot, and she entrusted me with this matter at the end of her life. It’s not okay, I have no face to see the old lady! I have no choice but to beg my wife to come; how can I see the princess, or the person who waits next to the princess will make me do it, at least I will pass this word to the old lady Seeing this, Mrs. Xing thought to herself, "He didn't go to look for the second wife, but came to look for me, because he believed me. Besides, I told the princess about this matter, but only for this mansion. It's good, but not harmful. Let me tell the princess one time for him, even if it doesn't work, it's not a crime; if it works, it will fulfill the love of the mandarin duck, and fulfill the wish of the old lady, isn't it a good thing? "So he hurriedly said: "Good boy, it's hard for you to be filial. I'll make a note. If I have to meet the princess in the future, I will answer the matter for you. It's just that it depends on the princess's intentions." After Yuanyang heard the words, she couldn't thank her enough, and hurriedly got up to salute Madam Xing again; Madam Xing held her back desperately, and said, "You don't have to thank me. This is what the old lady entrusted you with, and I must tell you. You just Stay home and wait for the news."

Seeing the mandarin ducks going out, Mrs. Xing said secretly, "I have no excuses to go to the princess. Now it happens to me. It can be seen that God will help me." He talked about this matter, and said: "Let's only talk about this matter, don't mention anything else, so as not to make people look shallow. Besides, there is no movement now. It is impossible to guarantee that the emperor has annoyed our family." Sister Feng The son panicked when he heard the words: "Really?" Mrs. Xing said with a smile: "Look at how scared you are. I've been thinking about this these days; I don't remember that we treated them poorly; it was the second room. Some things are not right. Mr. Kuang is so sick now, even if there is something, the appointment will not involve us. Just don't treat yourself as a relative of the emperor; you also told Lian'er that you should be more careful outside than in the past Ten times, is serious."

Hearing this, Sister Feng said hurriedly: "I can save it. When I go back, I will tell him what my wife means, and teach him not to be frivolous." Mrs. Xing said with a smile: "You have always been a sensible child. I can only rest assured of you. Look at this The current situation in the mansion, after finishing the old lady's business, we also want to separate from them, and we will not live together for long." After all, Sister Feng was concerned about the family property, and hurriedly said: "If we talk about dividing the family, how can we divide it?" What about it?" Mrs. Xing said: "Talk to them. Anyway, there are still men in this family, so it's not our turn to talk. Let's take care of ourselves to be serious." The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked again, and Sister Feng just left and went back.
