Xiaoxiang Water Cloud in the Red Chamber

Daiyu stared at Jia Mu indifferently: "The old lady should know who is best at this poison, and the old lady's choice back then should be fresh in her memory. Two or thirty years is not too long, so there is no need for Yu'er to remind her." How dare Yu'er have the guts to go to such a mansion. You don't have to blame Yu'er for not recognizing her relatives, even if there are such rumors outside, Yu'er is not afraid!"

Jiamu didn't know how to refute, so she said goodbye and left in a daze. She didn't slow down until she got back to her room. No, we still have the Iron Book of Danshu at home, and we haven't rebelled against it, so it won't be over." Suddenly, Jia Mu's eyes lit up, she calmed down, and ordered Yuanyang to say, "Go and call the second wife."

Yuanyang saw that Jiamu's expression was not good, so she agreed to go.

Mrs. Wang came to Jiamu's main room, and seeing the old lady's ashen face, she wondered, what's wrong with the old lady.Seeing her coming, Jia's mother said coldly: "The second wife will not stop until she pushes our family to a dead end."

Mrs. Wang stood up in fright and said: "What did the old lady say? The daughter-in-law has been wronged. The daughter-in-law has worked hard and conscientiously. It is not for this family but for Baoyu."

Jia Mu's eyes twitched: "For Baoyu, for Baoyu, you should treat Miss Lin sincerely. It's good for you to poison Miss Lin. Now people have seen through and hated us."

Mrs. Wang shivered in fright, she was afraid of something, she didn't expect that Daiyu really didn't take those supplements, so what to do.She cried for a long while before saying: "That girl is always sour-faced, just look at her face when she borrowed our money. We have begged her for so many things, she can do it with a little effort, but what did we do?" It's a good time, but it made her more and more separated from us, and she didn't even think about it. You are an elder, and the elder told her to only listen, and there is no way to push back. Baoyu is fascinated by her and does not want to make progress. Daughter-in-law How can you keep her. Now that things are done, the old lady doesn't have to blame her, even before I stopped doing these things, did the old lady feel that she was manipulated by you? "

"You!" Mother Jia was stunned, but Mrs. Wang said exactly what she had been unwilling to admit in her heart. Now Daiyu knew that her parents had been poisoned, and she even gave up Jia Min for the Jia family. I'm afraid I won't be able to climb up again.Mother Jia stomped her feet, let it go, fortunately, there is still the iron scroll of Danshu, she can be exonerated even if she reveals this matter, so let's just pretend that there is no such relative in the future.Thinking like this, thinking of the current wealth of the Lin family is still not reconciled.

Mrs. Wang saw that Jia Mu's face softened, she knew that she had been persuaded, and then she breathed a sigh of relief. If this matter was brought to Jia Zheng's place, it would be another big trouble.I heard Jia Mu say: "From now on, let's just pretend that we don't have this relative. That girl already knows what happened back then. If you think about the last bit of affection, you might be able to spare us. Let's not mess with her in the future. Seeing that the money is gone It's time, so hurry up and get ready."

Mrs. Wang quickly agreed, but she became more determined in her heart to kill Daiyu.Return money?Let's see if that vixen is alive!

After all, not many people went to Tanchun's ceremony, and it was a world of difference compared to Daiyu's grand occasion.Fortunately, these few people still spread Tanchun's fame.

Baochai was supposed to attend the Spring Festival Ceremony, but unfortunately something happened at home on March [-]th, and Xue's family was really struck by lightning.

That Xia Jingui has always been restless, seeing Xiangling's beauty and gentleness, she was very surprised, how did such a good girl come into Xue Pan's hands, so she asked Xiangling about her story by beating around the bush.Xiangling was terribly afraid of this grandma, not because she was afraid that she would be jealous, anyone with eyes knew that Xia Jingui wanted Xue Pan to die outside and never go to her house.Xiangling immediately told Xia Jingui her story.When Xia Jingui heard this, he had a calculation in his heart. He didn't expect Xue Pan to have such a glorious history. Hmph, I always thought about how to kill the Xue family so that I could go home and live in relief. If you don't die, why not add fire to yourself.So he sent a close maid, Baochan—this girl grew up with him, just like sisters—to send a letter to his mother, telling her about Xue Pan's life, her mother didn't want her daughter to be a widow, Seeing that her daughter was like this, she had no choice but to follow suit, so she quietly sent someone to look for evidence. Fortunately, his family knew a lot of powerful people, and they did find evidence, so Mrs. Xia gave Feng Yuan who was beaten to death by Xue Pan that year. The housekeeper Yinzi ordered him to go directly to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to expose Xue Pan.The butler didn't dare to stand up to Mrs. Xia's coaxing, and said that now the official Zhao Tang of the Ministry of Punishment is familiar with them, and he is the most honest.Tang Tangguan Zhao was very upright. At that time, he was furious and went to Rongguo Mansion to take Xue Pan away.

At that time, the Rongguo Mansion was busy exploring the spring ceremony tomorrow, so they didn't care about it, not to mention that their family didn't have the ability now. Baochai and Aunt Xue watched Xue Pan and Xiangling as witnesses being taken away, and they didn't care about it at all. .Two days later, she went to beg Mrs. Wang, but Mrs. Wang returned with sarcasm and complaints. Baochai hated her secretly, and there was no way to ask for help. The mother and daughter were really miserable.

Soon Xue Pan was sentenced to beheaded by Qiu Hou Wen, and Xiang Ling was returned free to be brought back by her mother, and finally escaped from the sea of ​​suffering.When Xia Jingui heard this, she burst into tears and shouted: "My life is hard. I finally married a man and was cheated. I also accepted my fate, but I didn't even enjoy a day of happiness when I got married. It took less than half a year. Widows. Usually you just boast that there is nothing wrong with killing someone in their family, but now you have found out and you are staring blankly. You usually only talk about being rich, powerful, and good relatives. What a fart! When the uncle can’t come back tomorrow for whatever reason, you all go do your own thing, and leave me to suffer alone! I’m dead!”

After going on like this for two days, Aunt Xue couldn't take it anymore, she threw away the letter of divorce for her son and threw it at Xia Jingui.If Baochai knew that Xue Pan was exposed by her, it would not be so easy to let go, but it is a pity that not everything is under her control, this is how good and evil will be rewarded in the end.The emperor, Shui Rong, and the others originally thought that the loyalty and obedience of the king would be settled before they could deal with the four major families, but now that someone came to their door to prove that they were happy to go ahead with it.

Aunt Xue, mother and daughter had teary eyes all day long, and Aunt Xue became ill soon, lying with empty eyes all day long.Baochai didn't even have a way to visit the prison, which really made Tiantian unreasonable.

This day, Baochai packed up and went to Baoyu's Yihong Courtyard. After all, she hadn't been there for several days.What is gratifying is that Baoyu didn't go out to spend time and wine.Seeing Baochai come in, Baoyu hurriedly gave up his seat and said, "Why is Sister Bao here?"

With dewy eyes, Baochai sighed, "It's nothing, I just came here to relax."

Baoyu saw that Baochai was dressed in simple and elegant clothes, but she had lost a lot of weight in a few days, to the point of showing a somewhat frail and frail appearance, her eyes like water apricots were shining with water, and she was very pitiful. Like sister Lin, she couldn't help feeling pity, and said softly: "Sister, don't bother, everything is fate, how can sister fight with fate. Daughter's family should be rich and precious, so sister should just keep herself safe." Said Thinking of missing Daiyu, he also frowned and sighed.

Baochai forced a smile and said, "You're talking about fate too, so I can't do that. By the way, brother Bao, tell me something new and interesting recently, so that you can take me to relax for a while."

Baoyu hurriedly told Baochai what he thought was fresh and fun, but he didn't understand these rules, so he couldn't help but ignore them.After a while, he suddenly said: "Recently, I handed over a Fengya man, who is truly unparalleled in the sky."

Baochai was bored, but still pretended to be interested and said, "Who do you admire so much?"

Baoyu said: "The man's name is Jiang Yuhan. You may not know his name, but his stage name is like thunder, and he is a famous official in the world."

Baochai was a little discouraged, but she was still an actor, so she said, "I've heard of it. I heard that his Du Liniang is very good."

Baoyu clapped his palms and smiled, "I know my sister has heard about it. Alas, such a good person is not free. Now he is flattering in front of King Zhongshun and has no autonomy at all. It's a pity that such a person has become a plaything."

Baochai hummed casually, and said, "It's pitiful."

Baoyu laughed and said, "I said this funny thing is what he said."

Baochai pretended to be listening.Baoyu became more and more cheerful and said: "I heard from him that King Zhongshun is forcing the son to marry every day, but the son is unwilling. Do you know why?"

Baochai couldn't help feeling a little interested, and asked, "Why?"

Baoyu said triumphantly, "Only the people of Prince Zhongshun know about this matter. The son fell in love with a nun and wanted to marry her as his concubine."

Baochai chuckled: "Brother Bao, I don't believe this, why would the prince recognize him and make a fool of himself?"

Baoyu stared and said: "Really, everyone in the palace knows about it. You can't think of who he likes. It was Master Miaoyu from our Quicui nunnery. The son has a good vision, but she is like a fairy like sister Miaoyu." How can ordinary people like us be worthy of such a character?" Then he sighed and said, "It's a pity that Sister Miaoyu has gone to be the empress's substitute, otherwise I can still see her once in a while."

Baochai's face remained unchanged, but her heart was already blossoming with joy, what a surprise.Miaoyu, that woman who embarrasses herself just once, never imagined that there is such a good suitor.Hmph, Miaoyu, I'd like to see how you escape this time.I just said that the reincarnation of heaven will always let me avenge this humiliation.

After talking to He Baoyu calmly, Baochai left the garden and hurried back to her own small garden. When she entered the house, she said, "Mom, brother is saved."

Aunt Xue's eyes lit up immediately, and she jumped up from the bed and grabbed Baochai's arm, saying, "Chai, what did you say, mom heard right, right?"

Baochai cried and laughed: "Mom, you heard me right, my brother is saved." As he spoke, he told what he had heard from Baoyu.At the end, he said: "Chai'er will tell the prince about this, and when the prince is happy, he may help us to settle the brother's matter."

Aunt Xue was so happy that her lips trembled, she laughed for a long time and said: "Hahaha, Chai Er, you are still resourceful, thank you, Mom." After laughing for a long time, she said: "We only know that Miaoyu became the Queen's substitute, but we don't know Where exactly is she?"

Baochai laughed and said, "Hey, the Queen's substitute is naturally in the royal temple. There are many royal temples, but the most important one is the Huangjue Temple, which is opposite the Chongming Bridge to the west of the palace. Chai'er will go to check first, and then go if she is convinced. "

Aunt Xue continued: "Okay, I have wronged Chai'er."

Baochai smiled, and turned into a man again this time, only more ugly--I was really scared--and then strolled to Huangjue Temple.After all, ordinary people could not enter this royal temple, so Baochai had to wait.After a long time, I finally saw a little nun come out, and Baochai rushed up to stop her. The nun was young and looked honest and gentle.Baochai took her to make a fuss about it.That's not bad, the nun saw that she didn't know the world, and said that a master Miaoyu came last year, but he had already lost his hair, and his appearance was beautiful and unconventional.Baochai knew she was wrong, so she went home happily and told her mother.

The two women discussed for a long time, Zhongshun Palace is not so easy to enter, how should they meet the prince.The two of them worked together for a long time to come up with a plan.

The next day, Baochai still disguised herself as a man, deliberately dressed very luxuriously, and swayed to the Zhongshun Palace.When he got to the door, he hung a faint smile and said to the doorman: "Brother, I have something to ask you to see your son, please report it."

The man at the door looked Baochai up and down, smiled, and said: "Yo, who are you, the son is also the one you said to see."

The person next to him smiled and said: "You look like a rabbit, you can't be the one who recommended the pillow mat, I'll teach you to be good, you are so beautiful in our prince's yard, our prince can't look down on you."

Baochai was ashamed and angry, but her face remained calm, she took out a five taels of silver, and said in a slightly cold voice: "I really have something to ask the prince to see, if the elder brothers don't report the important matter that has delayed the prince, they will not be afraid of the prince. Blame it? Otherwise, let’s make a bet, here is five taels of silver, if the prince doesn’t see you holding the silver, it will belong to you, if the prince sees me, it is estimated that the prince will reward you with more silver than this, how about it.”

Looking at Baochai's determined expression suspiciously, the doorman was not sure that the son of the world knew too many people like this, so he said, "Then you wait." Just as he was about to leave, Baochai hurriedly said : "Please take this painting over, the prince will know it at a glance."

"Okay, you wait." The man took the scroll and came to Lu Jingyuan's study, Lu Jingyuan was smiling with Sun Shaozu and said, "You will get married in five days, why don't you go to work and hang out."

Sun Shaozu curled his lips and said, "What's the matter, it's just Jia Shexiao's servant girl."

Lu Jingyuan laughed, seeing the boy at the door coming in, he said, "What's the matter?"

The young man hurriedly said: "Back to the prince, there is a young gentleman at the door begging to see the prince, and ordered me to present this painting, saying that you will know it at a glance."

Lu Jingyuan sneered and said, "There are too many people who want to see me, and where did the autumn wind come from?" As he spoke, he took the painting out of curiosity, opened it up, and was stunned.On the slide, there is a painting of a nun with hair practicing cultivation. Although the painter is average, he is a good person, and she is the beauty I have been dreaming of.There is a line of small characters on the side, which is quite elegant, "I don't know where the human face is going, and ask someone who is destined in the world."

Sun Shaozu came up to take a look, and said: "Could it be that this is the person whom the son has been thinking about for several years, and the son has a good vision."

Lu Jingyuan snorted, looked at the restless young man and said, "Let him in, and you can go to the account and get ten taels of silver, and I will say that this prince will reward you."

The boy was happy, hey, that Suan Ding really talked about it.Xiao ran to the door and said with a smile on his face, "Young master, please come in."

Baochai's face was calm, and her heart was pounding. This son's reputation has always been bad. Would he really fall in love with a nun? I hope my bet is not wrong.

When she came to the study, Baochai's heart skipped a beat. There was still a person standing in the room, a person she was very familiar with - Sun Shaozu. Baochai's face suddenly turned pale and her body trembled slightly. Although she hated this person who took away her innocence, But still afraid.

Sun Shaozu and Lu Jingyuan were also taken aback, not expecting it to be her.Lu Jingyuan was impatient, and said, "You said you know where the person in the painting is?"

Baochai puffed up and said, "Yes, but I didn't just tell Shizi casually."

Sun Shaozu smiled and said, "Xue Baochai, do you think you are qualified to negotiate with the prince?"

Baochai took a step back when he heard his real name, and said with a sneer, "At least I know where the person your son misses so much."

Lu Jingyuan stared at Baochai playfully, like a wolf aiming at its prey, and said, "You'd better tell the truth, otherwise I have plenty of ways to make your life worse than death."

Baochai was so gloomy and cold that she could hardly stand still, beads of sweat dripped from her face, she forced her voice not to tremble, and said quickly, "Since the little girl is here, I am not afraid, it is just where she is going. If I didn’t say it, you probably wouldn’t have thought of it in your lifetime.”

Lu Jingyuan said coldly, "Okay, let's talk about your conditions."

Baochai swallowed her spit, and said, "I only have two conditions, one is to rescue my brother from the Ministry of Punishment, and the other is to ask this grandpa never to tell about that matter."

Lu Jingyuan laughed loudly: "It's a small matter, I don't know about Brother Sun's matter, but I can still decide. As for your brother, as long as he is not dead, I have a solution. Tell me."

Baochai pursed her lower lip: "Thinking about being the son of the prince, I will not lie to the little girl. I just said that the person you want is now the queen's substitute, and she is in Huangjue Temple, but I heard that she has lost her hair."

Lu Jingyuan was startled, he never thought that Miaoyu would have the opportunity to enter the royal temple.If it is true, it would be troublesome. There are not one royal temples, and they are generally open to the outside world, with the exception of Huangjue Temple, where only the royal relatives can enter, but the queen would not embarrass King Zhongshun because of a substitute monk.

But he still had to ask whether it was the Royal Temple, because he said: "How did you find out, you may be sure, if you make a mistake, the Lord will not forgive you!"

Seeing Lu Jingyuan's sinister look, Baochai didn't dare to hide anything, and hurriedly told everything about Miaoyu's stay in Jia's mansion and what Baoyu had heard from Jiang Yuhan.

Lu Jingyuan gritted his teeth: "What a Miaoyu, she knows that the most dangerous place is the safest, but she went back to the Muni Court and hid at Jia's house. I know about this, and I will borrow Miaoyu to come back." Rescue your brother immediately, anyway, he will be killed after autumn, so you don't have to worry."

Baochai was overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed and said, "It's all up to the elder son. Then Baochai resigns. Now Baochai still lives in Rongguo Mansion. If you have something to do, just come and pass on Baochai."

Lu Jingyuan chuckled and made Baochai go away.When Baochai came out, she realized that she was already sweating through the back of her clothes.Thinking of that Sun Shaozu, as soon as I gritted my silver teeth, how could I, Xue Baochai, let you go, you bastard!

When Lu Jingyuan got the news, he immediately went to Huangjue Temple with his guards.Sun Shaozu felt that it was not easy for him to participate in the matter, so he made an excuse and went home.
