Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

Lin Hai thought that Mrs. Ji and himself were husband and wife after all, and he didn't hide it from Mrs. Ji. Last year, he stayed with Jia Lian to study in Yangzhou, and reminded Jia to pardon Wang, the second room of the Rongguo Mansion, to sell a lot of the Jia family's sacrificial land in Jinling. After Beijing, he told Jia Amnesty about Wang's usury and other things.

These led Jia Amnesty to decide to separate the family.When Jia Amnesty investigated and verified these things, he found out that Jia Min's pregnancy was caused by the Wang family, and that the Xue family brothers made an apology years ago, and the Ji family finally knew the whole story of the feud between the Lin family and the Wang family.

Lin Hai explained to Ji in detail the harm of leaving Jia Yuanchun in the palace. "Wan Rong, if you don't take advantage of Yuan Chun's favor in the current harem, once Yuan Chun gets to see her face, I'm afraid you'll have to look forward to the future draft and pick a girl who can beat her. And if Yuan Chun gave birth to a child during this period, and Wang Ziteng echoed both internally and externally, in the days to come, not to mention walking on thin ice, I am afraid that he would have to live in fear."

After hearing this, Mrs. Ji covered Lin Hai with her backhand and held her hand, "Husband, I will go to the audience on the first day of junior high school, and wait for the opportunity to see if I can persuade the queen to let her release Yuanchun." Such an excellent woman who could steal her husband's heart at any time should be dismissed early, maybe she would be eager to speak up herself.

"Wanrong, it's best to be able to pick up Yuanchun. But you must take good care of yourself, this is your first child." Lin Hai had an inexplicable fear of the palace, as if the palace was a monster with a big mouth that could devour people .

"Don't worry, my husband. I will be more careful when I enter the palace every year." Ji herself also attaches great importance to this child. If this is a son, she will have to rely on her for the rest of her life.

On the [-]th night, Lin Hai didn't keep Ji and Daiyu on watch for the meeting the next day, one was young, and the other was a pregnant woman who sent Ji and Daiyu to sleep early.Lin Hai played the chess record slowly by himself, and ordered someone to collect it when it was time to tick.Rested indiscriminately in the study for two hours.

Lin Hai and Ji had a little breakfast before boarding the car and going to the palace to attend the audience on the first day of junior high school.

It is cold in midwinter, without stars and moon, gloomy, but it is the coldest morning of the day.

Lin Hai ordered people to light dozens of horn lanterns and more than a dozen torches to illuminate his two cars and the people who followed them vividly.He knew that his official position was low, and he had to give way to the clan and high-ranking officials along the way, so he decided to go out early at about the same time, and try to avoid high-ranking officials and nobles as much as possible.

The Lin family's carriage was thick, Lin Hai was afraid that Mrs. Ji would catch cold, so he purposely nailed a layer of windproof tarpaulin inside the carriage.A silver frost carbon basin was placed in the car, and from time to time Lin Hai opened the curtain to take a breath.

"If you pick up Yuan Chun, don't take the same car with her. Let her go back to Rongguo Mansion with Mrs. Xing. There will be an extra car in the back."

"How did the husband go back to the mansion?"

"If you can't go out of the palace together, you can send a car to pick me up when you get home. I'm a big man, so I can wait for the car anywhere."

Mrs. Ji agreed, and Lin Hai repeatedly told her to be more careful, and only after the palace gate opened, did she hand over Mrs. Ji to the rich nanny to help her go to Ming Fu's side.

Before dawn, all civil and military officials were lined up according to their official positions, honors, and departments. Lin Hai stood in his place, walked forward with the crowd, and worriedly glanced at the female relatives.Yang Weigang talked about Lin Hai, and motioned him to look at the imperial censor who was picketing style.Lin Hai smiled gratefully and looked away.

Speaking of which, Yang Weigang is also a generous person, and he has been in the position of the left servant for a long time. If Lin Hai hadn't sought the position of the right servant this time, he would be the most likely person to make a small step forward.Maybe it's because Lin Hai was directly clicked to this position today. Yang Weigang has always been friendly to Lin Hai, and Lin Hai responded to him with the same friendly and respectful attitude.Yang Weigang was a little over ten years older than him, and he was a Jinshi one class earlier than him. He treated him with the etiquette of a senior in the imperial examination, and was recognized by his colleagues in the Ministry of Rites.

After three blows of the clean hall whip in the Jinluan Hall, Lin Hai knelt down and kowtowed along with the crowd, wishing the saint a new year.There was a Hanlin who came out of the class and read the New Year's greetings aloud. Today, he led all the civil and military officials to have an audience with the emperor.

Taishang's complexion was much better than what Lin Hai saw last summer, but he still lacked the confidence to speak.After talking a little more, I got a little out of breath.Jinshang respectfully stood beside Taishang, and when Taishang finished speaking, he took the tea cup brought by the eunuch, and held it to Taishang with both hands. Taishang was satisfied, took two sips, Jinshang took it naturally, as if today On the other hand, it is like being on the sidelines of the Taishang.After the Taishang did this, Fang stood up from the present and invited all civil and military officials to the New Year's banquet.

The dishes served by the waiter soon condensed a layer of white oil, and only the dim sum was still slightly hot.Lin Hai ate a lukewarm pine bag roll, put down his chopsticks, and watched Xungui sitting in the front half of the hall toast to the Empress.I thought to myself, my third-rank servants are all sitting in the middle, wouldn't the fifth-rank Beijing officials want to sit outside the hall?

Just as Lin Hai was thinking about it, he saw Jia She get up to toast the Supreme and the present. I don't know what pleasing words Jia She said, and he was rewarded by the Supreme. The nobles around him applauded, and Jia She drank three glasses .

Besides, on the side of officials and family members, Mrs. Xing used to be with Mrs. Jia and stood with Mrs. Jia.Today, when Mother Jia didn't come, Mrs. Xing was going to go back to the wife of the first general Wu Xun.Mrs. Xing was brought out early by Jia Amnesty, and when she saw the rich nun helped Mrs. Ji, she hurriedly followed Jia Amnesty's instructions and went to take care of Mrs. Ji.

Besides, because Ji is the head of the county, he should stand at the front of the queue.But she is not from the clan, so she stands behind the clan and in front of the princess with a different surname.Every year she is in this position, but this year, the people around her saw that she had changed into a woman's attire, and she was supported by a nun, so they cleverly guessed that she was pregnant after marriage.After asking a few words, knowing that Mrs. Ji married Lin Hai, the minister of rites, those who knew Lin Hai thought: Mrs. Ji is really lucky. At such an old age, she can still marry such a good person as a house filler.

There are those who are sore and mean, seeing Mrs. Xing going to help Mrs. Ji, "Are they sisters-in-law now? They are all filling in the house. The younger you are, the better you marry."

The Ji family has seen a lot of human relationships over the years, and his expression remains the same, as if he hadn't heard it.But Xing was only suppressed in front of Jia's mother, and couldn't help but changed his face, wanting to see who said the harsh words.

Mrs. Ji tugged at her sleeves, and said whoever wanted to talk.My husband is only a third-rank servant, if you can bear it, you must endure it; if you can bear it, you must endure it.Recognizing who said it, what can it do to people?The surroundings are either higher than my husband's official position, or have more confidence than my honor.

Mrs. Xing is a good person, she dare not disobey Jia She's order, and to put it bluntly, she is afraid of Jia She's unscrupulous temperament.Before going out, Jia She repeatedly reminded her to listen to Ji Shi.Seeing that Mrs. Ji prevented her from looking, she lowered her head and stopped looking.

The two followed the team to Zhaoyang Palace. When they went up the steps, Mrs. Ji intentionally separated from the people in front by a few steps, smiled and said to the people behind, "Stay farther away, and don't bump into anyone who doesn't stand properly. It's me. My husband is not young."

Those who heard the sour words from the front and the back all distanced themselves from Mrs. Ji in embarrassment.

The queen met the wives in batches.She has known Ji for many years, and this year, because of the care of the sage, she knows that Ji and Mrs. Xing's husbands are considered to be today's people.Therefore, the queen was more kind to the two of them, and said a few more words.He even politely said to Ji: "If you want to eat, if you can't find it outside for a while, you can come to the palace to find it."

Mrs. Ji immediately thanked the queen respectfully, "General Jia's wife has something to do, and I want to ask my mother for help."

"Let's hear it, if you can help, you will not be stingy."

Mrs. Ji pinched Mrs. Xing, and Mrs. Xing hurried forward and said, "It's the niece of my second wife. She has been in the palace for almost ten years. The old lady is over sixty years old, and she prays for the Duke at home. She misses Yuanchun very much." Granddaughter." Madam Xing stopped talking, then turned to look at Mrs. Ji.

Mrs. Ji had no choice but to continue, "Mother, Jia's Yuanchun is about to leave the palace, I implore Mrs. for the sake of the loyalty of the Rongguo Mansion for generations, let her leave the palace early, so as to honor the old lady who is over sixty years old. "

When the queen heard that the two were going to take Jia out of the palace, Anzi was very happy.I have guarded against Jia Shi for many years, and for her alone, I often have to send two people to supervise, so as not to let her get the chance to face the saint.After pondering for a while, he called his maid in charge, "Go and ask Lady Jia to pack her things, and leave the palace with General Jia's wife in a while. Remember the generous reward, it is also her reward for serving me as a lady officer for many years."

It was only when Ji lifted his heart that he let go, that his palms were sweaty.Forced to be calm, he and Madam Xing thanked the queen for her kindness, and retreated hand in hand.

Around the two, the imperial wives who heard Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Ji and the queen beg for grace all stared at each other as if they hadn't heard anything.No one in the big family in Beijing knows about the bad things about the Jia brothers.Mother Jia thought that she married her second son to live in Rongxi Hall because the second son was more filial to herself.What a big mansion, really filial, just a few steps away.There was no distinction between young and old, the rules were messed up, and it became the laughing stock of everyone in the capital.

Now it seems that it was Jia's eldest house and Lin Hai who conspired to break the second house's last support while the old matriarch was not here!ruthless enough.

Ten years earlier, because of Yuanchun's outstanding character and appearance, many of these families who stood at the forefront of the audience had been their second sons or concubines. After inquiring about Yuanchun, they were all rejected by Jia Mu.The courteous family, firstly because of Jia Daishan's remaining prestige in the army, and secondly because of the undivided family of Jia's family, thinking that she is still the daughter of the Duke's mansion.If you look at the second room of Jia's family, no matter how good it is, who can fall in love with the daughter of a fifth-rank official.

Later, when I saw Jia Mu sent Yuan Chun into the palace, she wanted to find a career for the second room, but she failed and was assigned to the most deserted prince's mansion.There are almost as many people who clapped their hands and exclaimed happily who had inquired about Yuan Chun at the beginning.In Yuanchun, only one female official was found, not even a concubine, and more people curled their lips. How about sending them to the palace? Woolen cloth.

Only when Jin Shang ascended the throne, did some people think of Yuan Chun's fate. No wonder, this is really a fate of good fortune.Of these people who are in the harem today, which one can compare with Yuan Chun's appearance.People who have met Yuan Chun will almost think that Yuan Chun's position as the empress is more suitable for that position than the current empress.

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo and the concubine of the King of Nan'an are cousins, and they had a good relationship with Jia's mother.The two of them nodded at each other, and what they conveyed in their eyes was that Jia's mother was plotted against by the big house.But the private affairs of the royal family involved the inner curtain of the saints. Even if they wanted to help Jiamu, they had no way to help. They could only watch as the queen sent the female officer in charge to arrange Yuanchun's departure from the palace.

After surviving the palace banquet, Princess Nan'an said to her cousin: "That man, Mrs. Jia, will be strong for the rest of his life."

"Think about it, how we persuaded her at the beginning, she just didn't listen. If you favor your children, how can you prevent the children from becoming enemies? Just follow the rules, so that you can suppress those who have their own ideas, and don't let the sons have children. separated."

"Yes. Have you heard that the second wife only gets [-]% for the separation of the family? It's a little bit less because they are all from the first wife. Isn't she partial to the second child? How can there be no claim to such a big matter of family separation?"

"Ask her when you're drinking in a few days. It's a pity, the girl from the second room is about to fly up the branch."

"Sigh, poor girl wasted her youth and spent ten years in vain."

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, the attendants of each family rushed to greet the masters and get on the car to return to the mansion.

Mrs. Xing said to Mrs. Ji: "You are pregnant, go back first. I'll just wait."

Mrs. Ji was not polite to her either, and went back by herself first.
