The Kangping Life of Mrs. Xing in Honglou

Since the Jiangnan officialdom was shaken, officials who originally belonged to Prince Yizhong and Prince Shunzhong fell down one after another. Although the Zhen family was not implicated, many officials who relied on his family were dealt with, which made the Zhen family even more uneasy.

Concubine Zhen in the palace couldn't sit still. Ever since the Jiangnan corruption case came out, the emperor didn't treat her like before. In addition, the woman in the cold palace passed away, and the emperor obviously remembered the kindness of that person again. These days, Prince Yizhong has been treated a lot better, even given a lot of good things, and Prince Yizhong's family has also grown a lot, so they are ready to move and continue to deploy in the palace.

Concubine Zhen took stock of the available manpower. She has been operating in the palace for many years, and she has placed manpower everywhere. Although she has suffered some losses in the past few years, it does not hinder her action this time. A concubine, a favorite concubine who can confuse the emperor, this person must be beautiful, dignified and elegant, have outstanding talents, and not be born too high, otherwise she will be too big-hearted, and she will not be able to handle it when the time comes.

Once these conditions are listed, Concubine Zhen can actually find two of those who meet these conditions, namely Jia Yuanchun and Xue Baochai. Yuan Chun's mother is not familiar, and she is a bit older.Xue Baochai's age is just right, but his background is too low, he was born in an imperial merchant.

Concubine Zhen thought about it for a few days, and finally decided that both of them should be used, but one would be dedicated to the emperor's favor, and the other would be used as a concubine by the emperor.Jia Yuanchun was quite old, and he was an old man who had served in the former queen's palace. The emperor didn't always think of that bitch these days, presumably this servant who had served by that bitch's side would definitely win the emperor's eyes.

As for Xue Baochai, serving by the Empress Dowager's side, the Holy Majesty does not have many heirs, presumably that bitch Xianfei will definitely arrange for the Holy Majesty to have a fertile woman.

Concubine Zhen made a decision and acted quickly.Concubine Zhen arranged everything, Xuan Yuanchun came to her palace to chat, and when it was almost time, she said: "Your old lady and my old lady have an unusual relationship. Your old lady once praised your piano skills in front of my mother, saying You play the qin so coolly, even the servant girl’s name is Baoqin, the weather is bright and refreshing today, so just play a piece and I’ll listen to you.” Someone moved the qin and asked Yuan Chun to play it, no matter how beautiful Yuan Chun’s qin sound is, Zhen The concubine listened to the sound of the piano with two minds, seemingly intoxicated, but in fact her eyes were always on the palace gate.

The emperor was attracted by the beautiful sound of the piano outside the gate of Princess Zhen's palace, and stepped into the palace of Princess Zhen. The moment the emperor came in, Princess Zhen noticed the arrival of the emperor, but she just pretended to be intoxicated. In the sound of the piano, at the end of the song, he came back to his senses in the praise of the Taihuang, and hurriedly got up to greet the Taihuang.

"My concubine pays her respects to the Emperor. I was too obsessed with listening to the piano just now. I didn't pay attention to the arrival of the Emperor. I lost my courtesy. I hope the Emperor will forgive me." Concubine Zhen saluted the Emperor.

"*Concubine, there is no need to be too polite. The player who played the piano just now has excellent piano skills, and I was fascinated by it." The emperor smiled and said to Concubine Zhen, holding the hand of Concubine Zhen, walked to the inner room, and sat down.

"The one who was playing the piano just now, play a piece of Flying Daggers."

Yuan Chun followed his orders and played a piece of Flying Daggers. When the playing was over, the Taihuang opened his eyes and said, "I never thought a woman could talk about Flying Daggers with such power. Come closer and let me have a look."

Yuan Chun approached the emperor, raised his head, lowered his eyebrows, Concubine Zhen said in a timely manner: "Emperor, this girl is not only beautiful, but also has great piano skills."

"What's your name, and who did you learn the art of playing the piano from?" Taihuang leaned on the soft couch and asked.

"Slave maid Jia Yuanchun, she learned the qin from her master with Shen Miao." Yuan Chun still knelt and replied with a low eyebrow.

"Jia Yuanchun, Jia Yuanchun, why does this name sound familiar to me?" The Taihuang thought carefully where he had heard this name, but couldn't remember it for a while.

"Emperor, this Jia Yuanchun is a descendant of the Rongguo Mansion." Dowager Zhen reminded.

"It's the girl from the Jia family who was born on the first day of the first lunar month. Looking at her attire, she looks like a female official in the palace. When did she enter the palace, and where is she on duty now?" Taihuang asked casually.

"Returning to the Supreme Emperor, the maidservant was Tianyou's errand in the palace in 16 years. She first served as a female official in the Changchun Palace, and now she is a female official in the Fengzao Palace." Yuanchun came back in [-]. Changchun Palace is the palace where the queen lives. Even if the queen was deposed, she couldn't say that she was serving the queen.

"Changchun Palace, I served the queen once, go down." Taihuang said unconsciously, and when he recovered, he remembered that Jiefa's wife had been abolished and passed away, so let Yuanchun go down.

"Why is this Jia Yuanchun here with you?" The Taihuang asked, this was suspicious of Concubine Zhen, the chaos in the south of the Yangtze River was caused by the Zhen family's carelessness.

"Emperor, the old lady of the Jia family and the mother of the concubine were serving in the palace at the beginning, and they were like sisters. This Jia Yuanchun is the eldest daughter of the second room. Earlier, his father was dismissed by the emperor. She also had some difficulties in the palace. , Her old lady was worried, so she entrusted my mother to let my concubine take care of one or two, no, this concubine announced her to come here." Concubine Zhen said with a smile, she had already thought about these words.

The Taihuang didn't say anything else, but in the next few days, Jia Yuanchun was announced to play the piano, and after a few days, the news came that Jia Yuanchun was favored by the Taihuang and was named a nobleman.The old lady received the imperial decree, accepted the decree to thank her, and her heart was extremely complicated. How could the concubine of the Supreme Emperor compare to the concubine of the Holy Majesty.

The old lady rewarded the servants and stayed alone in the bedroom. The emperor's concubines are better than the old ones who released the palace. This can be regarded as an early success. If there is another prince, at least he can also be named a prince. Yuan Chun is also a concubine.The old lady couldn't tell what it was like, she prayed every day that Yuanchun would have a child.

Now that Yuanchun is coming, Baoyu will also have support in the future. As for Yingchun, it is not as reliable as her own sister.Xing Yue was very surprised when she heard the news. This virtuous concubine has become the emperor's concubine. Now Yuan Chun is only in her early twenties, and the emperor is old enough to be her father.These years, the emperor's health has been bad. I am afraid that in a few years, this Yuanchun will be a widow, even if the royal women are widows.

Yuan Chun was appointed as a noble person, so in the palace, Ying Chun must be overwhelmed. I don't know if this Yuan Chun will cause trouble for Ying Chun.There is also the Wang family in Erfang, who is afraid that he will be released. The daughter of Yuanchun in Erfang is now promising. Even if this Wang family has made a mistake and has a daughter to support him, then Liu family has no children, so I am afraid that he is not an opponent, Xing Yue thought. It's tricky to think about.

Within a few days, there was another Xue Guiren in the harem, that is, Xue Baochai, who was bestowed by the Queen Mother to the Holy Majesty.There is no trace of Concubine Zhen's participation in this matter of imitating Baochai as a nobleman. When an old Fengjun who believed in Buddhism met the Queen Mother, he saw Xue Baochai and praised Xue Baochai for his good looks, and another mother said in front of the Queen Mother. In other words, he is a good child.The next day, the Empress Dowager asked the Empress to take her back. After being favored by the Holy Majesty, she was very happy, and immediately made her a nobleman and moved into the side hall of Fengzao Palace.

This Xue Baochai is capable, but her background is too low. According to the practice of this court, even if she has a child, she can at most be promoted to the position of concubine. She also has a foolish brother who can cause trouble. I don't know. How did Wang Ziteng teach Da fool Xue, or else, with this brother who was always holding back, she would not be able to do well in the palace.

As Xing Yue expected, it didn't take long for the Wang family of the second room to be released quietly by the old lady, but the power of housekeeping was still in Liu's hands. No, unless the old lady wants the eldest and second bedroom to have no contact in the future.

Now that there are nobles in both houses, Yuan Chun's scheming temperament and appearance are better than Ying Chun's, but it's a pity that she is the concubine of the Supreme Emperor, and she is too noble, and Ying Chun's entry into the palace is the sixth concubine's will, a soft concubine with a title, that old lady They cannot be easily manipulated.

When Xing Yue went to greet the old lady, she ran into Mrs. Wang and said sarcastically, "Aren't these younger siblings? But I haven't seen you for many years, and you are much older than before. However, these younger siblings eat fast and chant Buddha, It's still useful, otherwise there wouldn't be a noble person in the family." Xing Yue specially emphasized the words "eating fast, reciting Buddha's name" and "too noble person".

So what about being too noble? To put it bluntly, the Supreme Emperor can live for a few more years. If Yuan Chun can leave a child, she will have someone to rely on in the future. up.

"Sister-in-law, I haven't seen you for so many years. You are still so charming, and your appearance has not changed at all. It must be because you have never given birth." Mrs. Wang was also ruthless. It's a pity that Xing Yue is really not an ancient person.

"Then I would like to thank you, brother and sister. Thanks to my brother and sister, I am over [-] years old, and I still have such a good face." Xing Yue smiled softly and brilliantly, she didn't mind if she had children, anyway, Jia She didn't She lacks a son, and someone will take care of her, so what is she afraid of?

"Sisters and sisters, I have met your grandson. That is your eldest grandson. Zhu'er's wife is a good one. She left a queen for Zhu'er, and there will be people who can worship her in the future. Lan'er is like his father. He is a student. The master in the school often praises Lan'er, and Zhu'er's daughter-in-law taught him very well." Xing Yue said, looking at Li Wan who was standing silently at the side.

"Thank you sister-in-law for your compliment. I've met Lan'er." Mrs. Wang said forcefully, that child of Kefu looks just like his mother.

Looking at Mrs. Wang, who was many times older than Mrs. Liu, Xing Yue calculated in her heart, she did not believe that Jia Zheng could pamper her, an old lady, with Meiyu in front of her.As long as Jia Zheng favors Liu Shi and supports Liu Shi, coupled with Liu Shi's means, the second room must be a battle between dragons and tigers. She has a good show to watch. Of course, she just wants to watch the show, and she doesn't want to get involved and become someone else. The play in the eyes.

"Why didn't Baoyu go to school today? Oh, look at my confusion, the second brother and sister came out of the Buddhist hall and greeted the old lady for the first time. Can Baoyu accompany me?" After Xing Yue finished speaking, she took the lead to enter the old lady's place to say hello.

Xing Yue greeted the old lady, and went straight back to her small courtyard. The nanny who came out of the palace whispered something in Xing Yue's ear, and Xing Yue said in surprise: "Auntie, are you sure you read it right?"

"The old servant assures you that you are not mistaken. The girl called Xiren who is serving Baoyu has lost her eyebrows, and she is indeed broken." Mammy said solemnly.

"This Baoyu is only 13 years old, and he is not afraid of breaking his body, and the Wang family doesn't care about it." Xing Yue thought about it, and said with a smile: "Mother, don't talk about it, we just need to know." Xing Yue She planned to watch from the sidelines, but Jia Baoyu was not close to her, and besides, she was in charge of her enemy's son.

Xiren's girl was really scheming. Not long after Mrs. Wang came out, she became Mrs. Wang's most reassuring girl to serve Baoyu. It's good to serve Baoyu.Mrs. Liu knew about Xiren and wanted to send Xiren away, but was stopped by Mrs. Wang, just as Mrs. Liu wanted.

Even if the incident happened in the future, the master Wang wanted to blame her, but she couldn't blame her. She simply didn't care about the things around Baoyu, but told Tanchun and Jia Huan to stay away from Baoyu in the future, especially Tanchun, isn't it? He was sent to Dong Mansion to play with New Year, so he went to live in Lin's house.

Jia Huan and Jia Lan go to school every day, but Baoyu is the only one who hangs out in the inner house. Poor.

The intrigue in the second room is nothing new, and Xing Yue soon got tired of watching it, and asked people to collect the storybooks. After all these years, they have not made any progress. They are all old-fashioned, and she is tired of watching them. In her eyes , These story books, if you glance at them casually, they are full of loopholes.Xing Yue threw the notebook on the table and lay down on the imperial concubine's couch.

Xing Yue is very boring, the children should go to school, go home when they should go home, no one is around her to make fun of, Xing Yue can't help but think, should Jia Lian send the second grandson back, think about it and give up, the child will be No matter how old you are, the journey will take four to five months, and the ancient medical skills are underdeveloped. It will be troublesome if something happens to the child on the way.

Xing Yue is very irritable. These days, if the slaves make some big mistakes, Xing Yue can even reprimand or scold them.Even Jia Amnesty, these days, has not been less angry with Xing Yue. Except for Jia Cong and Jia Gui who can win Xing Yue's favor, other people in the family will walk around when they see her.

Xing Yue thought, she has reached menopause, her temper is cloudy all day long, and her period has not come yet, after thinking about it, she is now in her early forties, this is not surprising, she must have reached menopause .

Now that the children are not around, Xing Yue doesn't want to read the story book, and the account book, she is upset when she looks at it, so she simply stays in bed and sleeps all day, which is strange, Xing Yue doesn't seem to get enough sleep, There is still a lot to eat. After one or two months, Xing Yue squeezed the flesh on her stomach and said to Nanny: "Mommy, you have to remind me in the future to go out and walk more, the clothes are a little tight."

Xing Yue didn't care about it herself, but Mammy was different. She felt that the wife's reaction was a bit strange. Besides, the wife didn't gain weight in other places, only her stomach was slightly bulging. This wife couldn't be pregnant. Bar.These years, my wife has never been pregnant, and no one thinks about it.

In the following days, Mammy observed Xing Yue's reaction carefully, and became more and more certain in her heart. When Xing Yue once again said that it was strange, why only the belly grew flesh, Mammy expressed her own guess.

"Sister, say it again." Xing Yue rubbed her ears and froze there.
