A visit to Fangchun

The king of Beijing Jing has already lost the wind.

The emperor said to everyone that King Beijing "invited to buy people's hearts, and was very disrespectful." He seemed to believe three points, and even sent an order to him, saying that it would be better to rest at home like King Zhongshun, and wait for things to be resolved. Let's talk.

King Beijing Jing, who could no longer think of any other tricks, finally decided to use the concubine Yuan.But now he can't enter the palace, and if he wants to send a letter to Concubine Yuan, he might have to go the way of Mrs. Jia's Wang.

But the gate of Rongguo Mansion was strictly guarded by Li Wan and Tanchun, and the answer on the door was very polite: "There are orders from above, the men are not at home, some are not at home, and the sick are sick. The wives and grandmas have no orders from the superiors." Don’t even leave the door. How dare the little ones mess around? Please don’t embarrass the little ones.”

The King of Beijing couldn't go through the Rong Mansion. Although he didn't want to contaminate the Ningguo Mansion, he had to ask Jia Zhen to go to the North Mansion.

Jia Zhen was overwhelmed by the flattery, and hurried away like a dog, and asked Youshi to go to Rongfu when she returned home.

You Shi came to visit the "sick" old lady and second grandmother, but no one could tell what was wrong.But on the second day after You Shi came, Mrs. Wang didn't say anything to anyone, and went to the palace by herself at five o'clock.

When Baoyu and Tanchun got the news, she had already returned from the palace. The brother and sister looked at each other and sighed helplessly.

Three days later, it was the fifth day of October, the birthday of Patriarch Bodhidharma.Concubine Yuan came out with gifts and Tibetan incense, and ordered the maid to go to the nunnery of the family's villa to add lamps and bow down for her.

Baoyu wanted to go in with him, but was politely declined by the female official: "The imperial concubine ordered me to wait for incense, and I have a wish to make, so I don't need others to accompany me."

Mrs. Wang gave him a hard look, smiled and stretched out her hand to let someone in, and closed the hall door.

It took an hour and a half to pray to Buddha and make a wish.

When Miaoyu sent the two of them out, her face was also full of exhaustion, and she said together: "The poor nun has entered the Buddhist door, and everything yesterday is like death yesterday, and the disturbance in the world will no longer enter my heart. I hope you two will go back and take care of you." I am honored, no matter whether the matter is over or not, it will not interfere with me any more."

The servant and the female officer smiled and nodded: "Master is transparent, it's very good."

Miaoyu saluted Mrs. Wang again, then turned around impatiently and closed the door of the meditation room.

Walking out of the mountain gate, the servant smiled at Mrs. Wang and the others: "The master in charge of your family's Cui Temple has a very strange temper, is it normal?"

Mrs. Wang was a little embarrassed.Wang Xifeng hurriedly smiled and went forward to deal with it: "I don't know the messenger. I heard that she was also a lady from the officialdom. I thought that there is no need to be vigilant about the rules and etiquette, so I invited here. Who knows that after coming, except for our old lady, She didn't pay anyone's bill. Fortunately, she has more rules than the whole family, which saves the wife a lot of worry. It's just that we are embarrassed by embarrassing the envoy now."

The female officer smiled, and interjected and asked: "I heard that the orphan of the first aunt in the family is from the same town as her, so didn't they have any favors?"

Baoyu then laughed: "The old lady took us in to have tea. In front of others, she pointed to Sister Lin's nose and said she was a common man!"

The female officer seemed a little surprised, so she asked Baoyu with a smile: "Second Master Bao is the mother's brother and studies in the Grand View Garden, so he must come and go with this Changcui Nunnery often?"

Baoyu glanced at Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng, touched her head shyly and said with a smile: "As soon as I came, Master Miao ordered my youngest son to fetch water from the river first, saying that he wanted to wash the floor..."

Both the servant and the female officer laughed out loud for a moment.The female officer shook her head and sighed: "When you enter Buddhism, you are ruthless, but she is quite self-sufficient."

When the two of them left, Madam Wang breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head and pinched Baoyu's face with a smile, and said angrily, "It's good that you have a well-behaved mouth today. Why didn't you see you being so polite to outsiders in the past?"

The battle between the two kings came to an end temporarily with the king of Beijing slightly winning.

King Beijing was told by the emperor that "acting is not stable and needs to be practiced"; while King Zhongshun was fined for two years and thought about his mistakes behind closed doors. ", actually took away the right of remote control of the local army in the south of the Yangtze River, which he had always acquiesced in.All of a sudden, King Zhongshun, apart from the empty shell of a prince, became like the Northern King, an idle prince with no position or power.

Immediately afterwards, the emperor announced that Wang Ziteng had been promoted to a nine-province checkpoint to be in charge of military surveys in the south of the Yangtze River, Lianghu, Guangdong, and Guangxi.

Wang Ziteng's limelight was the same for a while, and he was so triumphant that he didn't know why.

When Jia Yucun heard Mrs. Wang entered the palace, he decided to try the case of King Zhongshun attentively. When Miaoyu's statement was delivered from the palace, he was already working on the closing memorial.Later, he coaxed Prince Teng to make up his mind to speak for him in front of the emperor.

The emperor was quite satisfied with his quick statement, so he pushed the boat forward and asked him to pick up Wang Ziteng's servant of the military department.Later, he found an excuse and awarded him a senior minister and asked him to be a military counselor. In this way, he has no military experience and can be regarded as a talker in the Ministry of War.This is something for later, let's not mention it for now.

Seeing this result, Feng Tang and Feng Ziying were a little unhappy, so Feng Ziying entrusted Feng Ziyun to write to Tanchun, and there were many questions in the words.

Tanchun was angry and funny, replied the letter, turned around and complained to Daiyu: "Your family's foster father and brother are really not a material for messing around in the officialdom. Look, the emperor's tactic of retreating into advancement, they haven't done it yet. My sister can understand."

Daiyu couldn't care less about Feng's family, so she pulled Tanchun to worry: "Now King Zhongshun's eyes have completely turned to our family, how can this be good?"

Tanchun was confident: "Since I have already registered with the emperor through my eldest sister, King Zhongshun will sue our family for something at this time. As long as there is no solid evidence, the emperor will think that he is taking revenge. At that time, I will Sprinkle something to turn back and bring Bei Wang along with you, then it will be fun to watch!"

Daiyu felt relieved, but then became suspicious: "How many things do you have in your hand? Where did you get them from?"

Tanchun giggled: "I can tell you everything, but this. You can rest assured, I will keep you and the old lady no matter what."

Just as I was talking, Xueyan suddenly came to report with a smile: "Girls, go and have a look. There are many relatives from each family, and I don't recognize them."

Tan Chun raised her eyebrows, oh, it looks like Xue Baoqin and the others are here?

Daiyu curiously pulled Tanchun to look, and sure enough, she saw Mrs. Xing's brother and sister-in-law with their daughter Xing Xiuyan, Aunt Xue's nephew Xue Bian with his sister Xue Baoqin, and Li Wan's widowed aunt with her daughters Li Wen and Li Qi. , came to meet relatives together.
