[Red House] A beautiful girl welcomes the spring

Xue Baochai had been waiting outside until Jia Amnesty sent the emperor and the two princes out before finding a chance to talk to Jia Yan.But not long after she sat down again, Jia Amnesty came again, and Xue Baochai had to get up to leave.

She knows very well that today is not a good time to talk to Jia Yan.

She can only come back another day.

The East Courtyard is far away from the small courtyard where Xue's family lives now, because this small courtyard is in front of the west side of Jiamu's Rongqing Hall.From the backyard of Rongqingtang, you have to take a car to go to the East Courtyard, let alone this small courtyard located to the west of Jiangyunxuan?

When Xue Baochai was almost at home, she saw her mother escorting Wang Xifeng out from a distance.

Xue Baochai stopped immediately.

Ying'er, who had been following her all along, did not dare to speak, and could only lower her hands, waiting for Xue Baochai's order.

As Xue Baochai's confidant girl, Ying'er is also a very smart girl, and she is used to being familiar with Xue Baochai, knowing that Xue Baochai stopped because she was thinking about something.

When Xue Baochai was thinking about something, Yinger would never dare to disturb her.

I saw Aunt Xue and Wang Xifeng standing at the door, holding hands, talking affectionately for a while, and then reluctantly parted. Among them, Aunt Xue watched Wang Xifeng's car go far away, even The girls and women who followed her disappeared, so they turned around and closed the courtyard door.

Xue Baochai knew very well how soft-hearted her mother was, and at the same time, she also knew how well-rounded Wang Xifeng was.If Wang Xifeng wanted to please someone, as long as she was willing to put in the effort, it would be very difficult for others to dislike her, especially Mrs. Xing is not a difficult person to please and Jia Lian is a soft-hearted and affectionate person when it comes to women.

But it happened that such a husband's family, which could even be said to be relaxed for most new daughters-in-law, actually allowed Wang Xifeng to get into the current situation!

It's not that Xue Baochai doesn't know the etiquette and calls Wang Xifeng a Feng girl. It's that Wang Xifeng looks smart but is actually so stupid that Xue Baochai doesn't even have the strength to despise her. Up to now, she only regards her as the maid in charge of Mrs. Wang— —Hanging up the keys and not being the master.

Xue Baochai didn't like Wang Xifeng, and she also knew that Wang Xifeng knew that she didn't like her. The two cousins, unless they needed to act, otherwise, in private, it could be said that the two of them had almost had no contact for many years.

This is the relationship between Xue Baochai and Wang Xifeng.

So Xue Baochai couldn't imagine what Wang Xifeng's purpose in visiting her mother was, and how she coaxed her mother to be so happy.

While her thoughts were racing, Ying'er whispered, "Girl, Second Mistress Lian has already left, so should we go back? There are people coming and going here, it's not a place to stand for a long time."

More importantly, a little further from where Xue Baochai was standing, there is a narrow road leading to the Xijiao Gate. It was originally used by the servants of the Qingrong Hou Mansion, and the car that dumped Yexiang also passed by here. In the eyes of the big girl, this road is a bit too dirty, and she doesn't like to stay for a moment.

Xue Baochai collected herself and walked forward holding Yinger's hand.

In her heart, even if Wang Xifeng is the kind of master who does not go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing, Wang Xifeng even looks down on Mrs. Xing so much that Mrs. Xing completely hates her, so how can she like Xue Baochai and the Xue family?Madam Xing was an official lady before she got married. Although she was in decline, she was better than their Xue family, a merchant family!

Moreover, Wang Xifeng lives in the small courtyard behind Rongxi Hall, and their Xue family lives in the courtyard in front of Rongqing Hall now, which is not close.There must be another reason for Wang Xifeng to come specially to Xue's small courtyard and coax her mother, Aunt Xue, into such a comfortable appearance.

Xue Baochai entered the upper room full of thoughts to greet her mother.

Children have to report to their parents when they go out, and they have to greet their parents as soon as possible after they come back. This is etiquette and a rule, otherwise, parents will worry at home.Not only those who have rules, but also those who have no rules, do the same.The Xue family is no exception.

This is a rule passed down in this land for thousands of years.

As soon as Aunt Xue saw Xue Baochai, she said, "Bao girl, how are you at the East courtyard?"

Xue Baochai didn't feel right when she heard it: "Mom, but did Miss Feng tell you anything?"

Aunt Xue shook her head and said with a smile: "Nothing. It's just that she is sitting at home with nothing to do, so she just talked to me."

Xue Baochai pondered for a while, then frowned immediately, and said, "Mom, I am your daughter, what can we not say? Why bother to keep it from my daughter? If others don't know, I still don't know? Send a court order After the order came down, we mentioned it, and it was always on the lips of the empress and the empress. You suddenly changed your mouth and used the word "dongyuan", and you asked your daughter to believe that there is no other reason?"

Aunt Xue hesitated for a moment, and waved her hand to let the girl in the house go to the yard outside, then she lowered her voice and said, "Come on, let me tell you. You also know that in the past two years in this mansion Just like cooking oil with a raging fire, the Jia family went out to more than a dozen officials at once. Although the highest was only the county master of the eighth rank, the Marquis in this mansion was too ostentatious! Therefore, Cheng'en Gong's mansion Word came from over there that it was necessary to..."

Xue Baochai was taken aback, and said: "Mom, could it be that Sister Feng got into Cheng'en Gong's mansion to make..."

Do you want to spoil the empress's reputation so that the empress cannot enter the palace?

It's not that Xue Baochai is suspicious and has a big brain. In fact, in Xue Baochai's heart, Wang Xifeng is such a person.

Originally, it was fine if Wang Xifeng didn't pay attention to his in-laws, but he didn't pay attention to his husband. The husband took two beautiful concubines and didn't wake up. Instead, he drove out the husband who rarely came to the house.

Ask Xue Baochai to say, no matter how angry you are in your heart!When you see those two beautiful concubines, you should suppress your anger and rush to give birth to a child, whether it is a boy or a girl!After you have given birth, you still have plenty of time to make trouble with men!

But how did Wang Xifeng do it?

The child didn't even see her, so she fell out with her husband first!

There is also Cheng'en Gong's Mansion leaked from Aunt Xue's mouth, that is the empress's natal family, what does it have to do with their Jia family?

Although Aunt Xue didn't think of going with Xue Baochai, she nodded and said, "Yes, Bao girl, your sister Feng has already hooked up with someone from Cheng'en Gong's mansion..."

Xue Baochai shook her head in a panic, took her mother's hand, and said, "Mom, do you know who I met with your mother today?"

"Who?"

Aunt Xue hasn't reacted yet.

Xue Baochai approached Aunt Xue, and whispered: "Mom, Long Live today came to this mansion in casual clothes. Accompanied by Lord Hou, I talked to the empress well, and even ate the tea made by the empress before leaving. You said, if Don't you trust your empress so much that Long Live will come to this mansion again and again?"

"This..." Aunt Xue hesitated, "But this harem is not allowed to interfere in politics..."

Xue Baochai knew the reason as soon as the six words "the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics" came out.

She hurriedly said: "Mom, I think you were taken in by Sister Feng! Why is the harem not allowed to engage in politics? What kind of politics did the empress do? It's just that Lord Hou bought some Zhuangzi and used some empresses to do it in his humble garden. It’s just a new method. Why? It’s because the waste and expenses in this mansion are increasing day by day, so farming alone can’t support so many people, so they found another way. What do you want to do with the empress? Daughter, the father has a life, what's wrong with the daughter's help? Did the empress dictate to the military and state affairs, or did she leave a note on the memorial? It's nothing! Mom~ As long as Long Live doesn't pursue this kind of thing, follow It doesn't matter to us. Long live the investigation, it is useless even if the empress is cautious in her words and deeds."

In short, if the emperor really trusted Jia Yan, he would treat Jia Yan as the second Wu Zetian, and it would be useless if the court officials objected; Similarly, even if he did not make a big mistake and won the support of the officials, he would still be abolished by the emperor.

Now, the emperor is very rare about Jia Yan, and now he is colluding with Duke Cheng'en's mansion, maybe he can't bring Jia Yan down, and even drag himself into it.

What Xue Baochai, who is only 13 years old, can think of, Aunt Xue naturally can think of.

She immediately jumped up: "Ah, I... Your Sister Feng is really amazing. If you didn't tell the truth, I'm afraid I would really follow her... But, how good is this? I promise you Feng sister..."

Xue Baochai said: "Then mother can send someone to help sister Feng?"

Aunt Xue immediately shook her head and said, "Of course not. You came back just after your sister Feng left."

When Xue Baochai heard about it, her mind was settled, and she hurriedly said: "This is irrelevant. As long as we report back to Lord Hou immediately, we will say that we are just pretending to be false with Sister Feng. If we have something to say, we will come to Lord Hou. Your habitual temper will definitely not annoy us. Mom, tell me quickly what Sister Feng has done to you. I will also help you with the details. "

It has to be said that the emperor's visit to Jia's house twice gave Xue Baochai a very obvious signal, that is: the emperor valued Jia Yan very much.

If Jia Yan can continue to be favored by the emperor, it will be good for their Xue family.

After all these years, it was not until this year that Xue Baochai and Jia Yan were able to sit down and have a good talk.

If Jia Yan fell down, wouldn't all the energy and money she spent on Xue Baochai be wasted?

What's more, Cheng'en Gong's Mansion is the queen's natal family, and the queen has no children!

This is the most important thing!

The queen has a son, Xue Baochai will definitely not hesitate, but the queen does not have a son, and the Cheng'en government tried to send the youngest daughter to the palace several times but was stopped by the queen, this is already a recognized thing in a certain circle up.

If there is a prince's grandson in Cheng'en Gong's mansion, Xue Baochai will surely support Cheng'en's mansion if he can hold Cheng'en's mansion.

But now, Duke Cheng'en's mansion has no prince and grandson, and besides the empress, there is no second daughter to be a concubine in the palace!

Jia Yan was already Concubine Shu before she entered the palace, and she may not be able to enter another level in the future.

For Xue Baochai, since he has already invested so much in Jia Yan and has seen a little return, it is impossible to turn his back now and support Cheng'en Gongfu, which may not necessarily have the prince's grandson in the future.

Xue Baochai quickly took out the message she wanted from the mouth of her mother, Aunt Xue, and wrote a letter. Then, when she went to Rongxi Hall to greet Mrs. Xing early the next morning, she quietly slipped it into the letter. Mrs. Xing.

Mrs. Xing saw it and immediately passed it on to Jia Amnesty.

Because Xue Baochai did it ingeniously, even Tanchun, who has always been shrewd, never found out, let alone Xichun, Third Sister You and others.

As for Yan Biju, she had seen it, but she was always very smart, so she just pretended not to know.
