[Red Mansion] Biography of Empress Lin

Lin Daiyu originally thought that Princess Jingyue would secretly help Shi Xiangling, but she didn't expect that the other party really just used Shi Xiangling as an example, so she couldn't bear to give Shi Xiangling some of the golden melon seeds she got, but was stopped by the owner of Chang'an up.

"Even if you give it to her, she will only think that you are giving alms, and maybe she will hold a grudge against you." The village owner of Chang'an can understand Lin Daiyu's kindness, after all, this is the education she has received since she was a child.It's just that kindness has to be divided into people. Shi Xiangling may be a little pitiful, but the position of Baolinghou's family makes it impossible for the Chang'an township owner to sympathize with them: "Do you know why Baolinghou let the masters of Nanyang and Lingyang not want it?" , I chose to send my daughter to the head of Anyang county as a companion."

Lin Daiyu shook her head blankly, "Did the eldest lady of the Shi family take the initiative to accompany the Anyang county magistrate?"

"Of course." Princess Huayang, who appeared at some unknown time, rolled her eyes and said, "Why would a historian of one family and two princes condescend to condescend the eldest daughter of the eldest son to accompany the concubine daughter of the second prince? I Even if that cousin is flamboyant like a peacock, it can't hide the fact that she's not that noble."

The Anyang County Lord's background is not obvious, and she was able to run amok in the Anjun Prince's Mansion because her mother and concubine are the niece of Concubine Gonggui, so she was able to suppress the prominent sister-in-law and concubine sister of the mother's family.

The Baolinghou Mansion also took a fancy to this point, so they deliberately let Shi Xiangling approach Princess Anyang.The reason is that one day, Shi Xiangling can marry into the palace and become the princess of Anjun.

"Since this is the case, why choose the son of the concubine Wang?" Lin Daiyu became more and more puzzled: "Isn't it better to choose the son of the concubine Gu? At least the other party is still raised under the concubine's knees, which is more important than the brother of the Anyang County Lord. Righteousness."

"But the problem is that Concubine Gu's son is backed by the two great families of Gu He." Princess Jingyue joined the conversation at some point, holding a plate of rose cake and enjoying it indistinctly, and motioned for a few friends to come along too. Try it: "It is said that from the power of the dragon, the power of the reserve. Those who follow the prince's elder brother hope that after the Lin family and the Zheng family have finished their bones, they can also taste some broth. It is the same in the Prince's Mansion of Anjun. "

Lin Daiyu understood in seconds: "If Gu's side concubine's son becomes the heir, then the benefits will be taken up by the Gu He family, and the others will not get much."

But it's different when it's the son of the concubine Wang.

Concubine Gonggui's background is not revealed, otherwise she would not have followed Jinshang just as a palace maid when she gave birth to her son.This also caused Concubine Gong's niece to marry Prince An as a concubine, and even the position of side concubine was forced by Concubine Gong.So don't look at how domineering Wang Fangfei and Anyang County Lord are in the eyes of outsiders, in fact, no one is optimistic about them at all.

Except for the Bowling Hou Mansion with a different vision.

Princess Jingyue used to ridicule the Bowling Marquis House for its self-confidence, thinking that under the siege of the Gu He family, it could win the crown prince for the son of the concubine Wang, but she talked about it with Lin Miyan. At the time of the incident, the latter felt that the Baolinghou Mansion had done the right thing, and it was Princess Jingyue who saw it too shallowly.

"Even if the son of the side concubine Wang can't be the heir, with Concubine Gonggui and King An Jun's eccentric mother and son, when the family is separated, he will have a generous share, and maybe he can even get a shadow official." Lin Miyan asked back: "You think it's the Baolinghou's family who wronged Shi Xiangling, but they think it's their own family who has been promoted."

"Why?"

"Some past events, you'd better not get involved." Lin Miyan said vaguely.

Princess Jingyue didn't like to ask the bottom line. After her mother showed that she didn't want to answer, she put the matter aside. It wasn't until today when she talked about Shi Xiangling with Lin Daiyu that she remembered that there was still such a problem, so she asked one more question : "Speaking of which, this Baolinghou historian is also Mrs. Rong Guogong's natal family. Why don't my cousin and Mrs. Lin have any contact with them?"

"It's not good for children to talk nonsense about elders." Lin Daiyu also felt very strange about this point.After all, several half-brothers and sisters have to go to Prince Fu's mansion to stay for a while from time to time. On the other hand, here in Jia Min, only Mrs. Zhang occasionally comes to visit.Lin Daiyu grew up in the capital until she was six years old, but she never went to Rongguo's mansion. It was always just Jia Min and Lin Ruhai who went there to socialize.

As for the Marquis Bowling's Mansion, it is several floors away from the Lin family.

When Lin Daiyu and her mother entertained Mrs. Zhang, they also heard that after Jia Daishan's death, the relationship between the Bowling Marquis Mansion and the Rongguo Mansion has weakened a lot, so the niece who changed her baby name to Xiangyun would come to the Rongguo Mansion. Staying here for a short time coaxed Jia's mother to treat her better than her own granddaughter.

Speaking of the lady from the Hou Mansion named Shi Xiangyun, Mrs. Zhang was very dissatisfied and said: "I used to let the lady from Baoling Hou's family come to stay occasionally for the sake of my mother's happiness. It's just that this girl is almost seven years old. How can it work if none of the two Marquis of the Historian complain about the historian in front of his mother, and they don’t shy away from going in and out of the room?"

Jia Min can understand Mrs. Zhang's worries.

No matter how much Shi Xiangyun is a relative, he is only a cousin who is separated from the head of the family by a few layers.Even a lady of the same family who is serious and honest will not go into other homes as if they are her own.Now he can still use his youth and ignorance to cover up the irregularities inside, but once Shi Xiangyun passes the age of different seats, he can't go to live with relatives with only a few servants as he is now.

Isn't this the same as pointing the noses of the Bowlinghou couple and scolding them for being mean to their niece?

Even more savages, maybe they will satirize the Bowlinghou couple openly and secretly, as if they are dead, so they want to let the niece "go to" another family.

If it were someone else, the Baolinghou couple would have dealt with it long ago, lest their daughter and the nieces next door would be tarnished.

But Shi Xiangyun's identity is too special, because the title of Marquis Baoling is not inherited from father to son, but from brother to brother.What makes Baolinghou and his wife even more aggrieved is that that "brother" is still Shi Xiangyun's father, so whenever they do something that makes Shi Xiangyun feel dissatisfied, the latter will cry and talk about his dead parents endlessly, causing trouble Mrs. Bowlinghou was so angry that she fell on the bed several times, and she had to support her niece in front of outsiders, lest her daughter be implicated.

"Daiyu is not good at talking about elders, but I have heard a lot about Baolinghou's family." Princess Huayang is different from Princess Jingyue. Once the crown prince succeeds, she will be Princess Jingting's second. The concubine also intends to train her own daughter, hoping that Princess Huayang can become the right-hand man of the princess in the future like Princess Jingting: "Although the former Marquis Baoling died in the battle, he didn't win that battle, and he lost It is extremely disgraceful, that's why Bao Linghou has been relying on the Rongguo Mansion to be a low-key person these years. It's just that outsiders have finally forgotten about it. Some time ago, it was revealed that the Baolinghou brothers swallowed the deceased brother's family property and the dead sister-in-law's dowry , plus that niece of their family is always running to Duke Rong's mansion, can people stop thinking about it?"

Speaking of this, Princess Huayang was afraid that Lin Daiyu would think too much, so she added: "Mrs. You get along well with Miss Shi Jia, and the old lady is the aunt of Bao Linghou, so you can barely suppress the public opinion. But in the long run, it is not a solution. Madam Lin must not let you go because of this consideration Rongguo Palace."

Although Jia Min's starting point can be called very selfish and mean, she did it for Lin Daiyu's good.

As the saying goes, those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black.

A noble girl's circle of friends can indirectly reflect their natal family's strength and their own capital, so Lin Ruhai sent the eldest daughter to the Jiang family's daughter, and sent the youngest daughter to the princess as a companion.

Princess Jingyue felt that the atmosphere of the conversation was a bit sluggish, so she wiped her hands with a wet handkerchief, patted the table, and called everyone's attention to her: "Okay, my one-acre three-point You didn’t take care of the land! What do you care about other people?”

Speaking of this, Princess Jingyue said a little excitedly: "Dragon Boat Festival will be in a few days, Father will definitely go to the suburbs to watch the dragon boat race. Let me ask you, are you ready? It's rare to go out of the palace, so you must have fun. yes."

"Princess, before the dragon boat race, you should think about your homework first!" Lin Daiyu said with precision, "Aunt Queen hasn't checked your homework for the past few days, maybe it's just to beat you to school the night before the dragon boat race." Catch the current situation. At that time... no matter how much you prepare, it will be useless."

As soon as these words came out, Princess Jingyue shuddered with an arc visible to the naked eye, then hurriedly asked the maid to bring her homework, then grabbed Lin Daiyu's clothes, and asked the only student in her dating group to help her figure out a way .

Lin Daiyu, the only cultural person: "..." It's not that she doesn't want to help, but that the level gap is too big, how can she help?
