Fengqiwu of the Red Chamber

But I saw a palace maid in a blue palace dress coming towards me, she bowed and said: "Miss Wang, my mother is here to invite you." Xifeng was quite puzzled, and the maid said respectfully: "My lady is the master of Fengzao Palace. , Xiande concubine.” After saying this, Xifeng understood that it was Yuan Chun who specially sent her to bring her from Jia’s mansion when she saw her entering the palace, and now the eldest maid of Fengzao Palace is holding the piano.Seeing that although she is older, she naturally has a calm posture, her fingers are long and white, and her smile is slightly, but slightly pale.Thinking of the big girls in the four springs of Jia's mansion, each of them is named "qinqi, calligraphy and painting".According to the points that Xichun is good at painting, Tanchun loves calligraphy, and Yingchun is good at playing, Jing Xifeng speculates that Yuanchun is good at piano.Xifeng wanted to meet this important woman in the red building, but she didn't know if she wanted to befriend him, or if she had something to ask him.Although she doesn't like Daiyu and supports "Golden Jade Marriage", Xifeng has no ill feeling towards her.

Thinking of her as a weak woman, the four major families let her enter the palace as a female official in order to preserve their glory and wealth.Fighting openly and secretly in the palace is inevitable, how much energy she has to spend, and what price she has to pay to win the favor of the sage and climb up to the position of concubine Xiande step by step!Although the Jia Mansion ranks first among the four major families, it is because it has the most wealth and power, and because it has a big backer to ensure this noble status—Yuan Chun, and the Jia Mansion, which has been honored for generations, has become famous again because of her. The royal relatives and relatives.Even the first half of the novel only revolves around the plots of Yuanchun's "Choose Fengzao Palace", "Conferring a Virtuous Concubine" and "Visiting Relatives", trying to write about Jia's "burning fire cooking oil, flowers blooming brocade".However, "Luxury is enviable, but parting is embarrassing. Who knows the bitterness and sweetness of gaining a false name?" Just watch the scene of Yuanchun returning home to visit relatives and reuniting with relatives in a private room. the tragedy.Yuan Chun said something and cried, and described the palace as a "nowhere to see people" that was "uninteresting in the end", exactly like coming out of a claustrophobic place where she was imprisoned.Although Emperor Shui Yao is a wise and decisive good emperor.But he is old enough to be Yuan Chun's father, and at the same time, he doesn't really love Yuan Chun, it's just a political need.The glory that a woman like Baochai envies is an abyss for a woman like Yuanchun, and she has to pay the price of losing her freedom.In the future, you will have to pay the price with your life.

Xifeng let out a long sigh in his heart, and walked into Fengzao Palace, the young maids next to her were all very respectful to Baoqin, calling her "aunt" without mentioning it.When the notification came, Xifeng entered the inner hall, and after kneeling down to salute and greet, Fang heard Yuan Chun say: "Little sister, get up quickly! Hold the piano and watch the seats." Only then did Xifeng thank you, spurning secretly in her heart, damn it! In ancient times, people had to kneel and kowtow at every turn.That's all for the parents and emperors.Begging a woman who is not much older than myself, I feel unhappy in my heart.But there was still a submissive smile on her face. Seeing that Baoqin came over with a small square stool, Xifeng declined and sat on half of her buttocks, looking up at the woman in the main seat.The appearance is dignified and beautiful, graceful and luxurious, with a pair of apricot eyes exactly the same as Mrs. Wang and Xue Baochai.I saw her wearing a fragrant concubine-colored palace robe, with a phoenix hairpin on her head, and the phoenix tail twisted and twisted on the concubine's head, swaying gracefully.Viewed from the side, it really looks like a big phoenix soaring with its long tail feathers.In addition to a string of three-strand tassels hanging from the crested head, there is also a big red bead in its mouth.Matching the front phoenix hairpin is a pair of side phoenix hairpins next to it, with a single big red bead in its mouth and three tassels hanging down, which are extremely delicate.Xifeng was full of praise in her heart.But only Yuan Chun asked: "How old is my sister?" Xi Feng hurriedly replied, "Seventeen years old." Yuan Chun nodded slightly and said: "The age is just right, I think I was only fifteen or sixteen years old when I entered the palace. , So many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and you little girls are all slim, and I will grow old when I see it." Xifeng complimented: "My lady is graceful and luxurious. She has an extraordinary temperament, like a beautiful peony. Can a shy little girl compare to that?" Yuan Chun smiled and said, "You have a sweet mouth. I just heard that your family has been conferred the honor of being an imperial merchant, and your father has been given an official position. From now on, you will be an official lady like Miss Bao." Xifeng also laughed and said, "It's just the grace of the Holy One."

After chatting politely with Yuan Chun, he turned to the main topic, "Miss Feng'er, you are at the right age now, has any marriage been arranged for you at home?" Xifeng pretended to be shy and blushed, and said, "Not yet. It's all because Back in Jinling, I gained some fame, and my parents were confused." (Xifeng: Anyway, I can't say that no one wants me, but I want it, and Yuanchun wants to mess up the mandarin ducks again...) Yuanchun covered his lips and smiled. "It's because your parents love you, no matter, you are still young, it's important to choose a good family carefully. But now you are imperial merchants, and you have been granted official positions. If you marry an ordinary family, you will be married at a low level. You should go to the middle of the capital. Let's find a suitable family!" Xifeng thanked Yuan Chun for her kindness, and thought to herself: "Jia Baoyu is too small for herself, so she won't marry me to him; but other Jia family children are not excluded. Or directly choose children from families close to the four major families, and they will definitely marry for politics. It's a pity, the emperor has given her the will to marry freely, and she can't play her wishful thinking."

After Yuanchun was finished, Xifeng was rewarded with many palace flowers, gold and silver noodles, and ornamental utensils, so Xifeng resigned from the palace.Before leaving, Yuan Chun ordered a young lady-in-waiting to escort Xifeng out of the palace, but Xifeng thanked her without mentioning it.Going around, turned around a palace, just walked to the end of the corridor, and found that Shui Rong was leading a few eunuchs into the palace gate.Hitting head-on, Xifeng couldn't dodge and could only salute: "Greetings, Your Majesty." With a smile in Shui Rong's eyes, a warm and jade-like voice sounded: "Miss Wang, excuse me." Xifeng turned sideways and lowered her eyes, just waiting for Shui Rong to pass by However, a shadow appeared on the ground, and Shui Rong suddenly came over and whispered: "Feng'er, go back and wait for me..." Xi Feng froze for a moment, and immediately blushed in embarrassment, this Shui Rong was so presumptuous in the palace, this , Is this Red Mansions?

Shui Rong held back his laughter and walked away.Xifeng squeezed the handkerchief angrily, and just left the palace with her head down without mentioning it.After finally tossing back to Yuhua Lane, I heard the crackling of firecrackers as soon as I arrived at the door. The door opened, and two rambunctious brats poured out of it, whether it was brother Jue Huan or something, followed by Le The Wang Zhong couple and Wang Ren couple who couldn't close their mouths from ear to ear just said, "Brother Feng is back!" Xifeng's tears blurred his eyes, jumped off the carriage and threw himself into Mrs. Liu's arms, crying: "Mother! Dear, Fenger misses you so much." Madam Liu happily stroked her daughter's hair with tears in her eyes, Wang Zhong next to her coughed uncomfortably, and Wang Ren and his wife looked at the scene with a smile.Little Brother Huan tugged at his little uncle's sleeve, and opened his mouth to look at this aunt who moved like a mad rabbit.Brother Jue took aim at Xifeng's carriage, and just wanted to step up and take a closer look.

Xifeng was excited for a while, and suddenly thought that the palace was about to announce the decree, so she hurriedly got out of Mrs. Liu's arms and said, "Father, mother, our family's reward will come soon, and our family will be a serious emperor from now on." Business." Looking at the smiling daughter, Wang Zhong's throat was sore, his daughter had paid too much for the family, and now the name of the imperial merchant and his official position were all earned by his daughter's overseas business.Thinking that he is not capable of protecting his wife and children's property, but wants his delicate and weak baby daughter to go out to do business and endure hardships, Wang Zhong's heart aches to death.Lemon, Ping'er, etc. also rushed forward to congratulate her. Madam Liu only said: "Good things are coming, don't be so busy like chickens, hurry up and prepare incense cases and tributes, brothers Jue and Huan, don't make trouble! Now, come in with me and change your clothes." With Mrs. Liu, Yuhua Lane really took on a new look, and the related matters were taken care of in an orderly manner in a short while, and Xifeng also changed into festive clothes and was ready to receive the order.

Before the imperial decree came, Xifeng curiously asked Wang Zhong and his wife: "Why did my father and mother come so timely? No one sent me a letter to tell me when you left?" Madam Liu smiled and said: "We will leave before the Chinese New Year. We received the news from Beijing, so we set off on the first day of the new year, in order to catch up with today's good day. Otherwise, you will be here alone to receive the order, and you will not panic and forget what is important Things will get worse." Xifeng laughed and said, "Mother is still thoughtful." When asked who sent the letter, Mrs. Liu only said that it was a small yellow gate in the palace, and she didn't know anything else.Xifeng wrinkled her nose, hum, he must have made this person.

After a while, the palace came to proclaim the decree. Seeing the chubby eunuch who came to proclaim the decree, Xifeng felt a little empty for some reason.Wang Zhong went up to the eunuch and cupped his hands and said, "Elder-in-law, you have worked hard. If you don't mind staying in the humble house to eat hot tea!" By the way, he handed over the thick red seal, and the eunuch took it and squeezed it, satisfied. He squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Master Wang, you are welcome. Our family has to go back to the palace to return to the palace, so we will not bother Mr. Wang." Wang Zhong then sent the person outside the alley without mentioning it.

At this time, Jia's mansion, Wang Ziteng, and the people who are friendly with Xifeng have all sent congratulatory gifts over. Xifeng is directing the maids to classify and record the gifts, and there is a report from outside: "Girl, the Beijing Palace has sent you gifts." Congratulations." Xifeng was still sulking, and didn't even raise her head, she just replied ah.Lemon and the others couldn't figure it out, so they had to accept the gifts as usual and bring people in.The person who came was an old woman who had never seen her before, she smiled like a chrysanthemum, and when she came in, she politely congratulated Madam Liu, Madam Liu knew that it was from the palace, so she asked someone to seal a big red envelope, thank you After discussing the wishes of the masters of the King of Beijing, Fang asked someone to take the mother-in-law down.

(No matter how serious a man is, when he meets a girl he likes, he will become a little unscrupulous...)
