It's Hard to Be the Concubine of the Red Chamber

Chapter 93

Although Tu Mingxuan can't put all his energy in the harem most of the time, there are not many things he can do in the previous dynasty.It's not that I don't pay attention to it at all, so although I may not have time to manage the things in my harem, I always know about it.

It is impossible for any man to like a mess in his backyard. Even if his wife and concubine cannot live in harmony as a family, at least they have to maintain a superficial peace.

What Yuan Chun said in his palace before did not deliberately avoid anyone, not to mention Xiu Yan, even Le Er stayed by his side to listen, so it is not at all that these words can reach Tu Ming's ears. No wonder.

But these words actually hit Tu Mingxuan's psychology very much.

After all, what Yuan Chun said this time is actually very good, although Tu Mingjun is still young now, and he is not at the age to think about the things behind him.But only talking about things in the harem, since Concubine Ning and Concubine Jing have an eldest son from a concubine, it will also threaten the status of the queen to a large extent.And although the queen's family background is not high, she is the original wife who has been in love with her since her infancy. After all, her status is different, and she has a lot of affection with Tu Mingxuan.

Therefore, although Yuan Chun didn't say anything directly in front of Tu Mingjun, but after all, it entered Tu Mingjun's heart, so after listening to what Yuan Chun said, although he didn't express it publicly What happened, but behind the scenes, she still alienated Concubine Ning and Concubine Jing intentionally or unintentionally.

The so-called killing is invisible, nothing less than the case.

Although Yuan Chun didn't directly go to the queen to ask for credit, but the queen has the history of the harem, so she naturally knows that Concubine Ning and Concubine Jing have fallen out of favor a lot in the past few months.The queen felt that she hadn't done anything, but Tu Mingyu suddenly turned cold on Concubine Ning and Concubine Jing. Thinking about the two people who had become more and more powerful in the harem before, now almost no one would dare to provoke them, naturally You can also guess what Xu Yuanchun did in it.

In the dream, even without Yuan Chun's help, the queen could still secure her position in the middle palace among many concubines with extraordinary backgrounds. Among them, she has her own advantages, at least she is generous enough.Although Yuan Chun didn't ask for credit in front of her this time, but since the queen was aware of Yuan Chun's credit, she repayed her kindness—it didn't take long to give Yuan Chun a favor.

In mid-September of this year, Jia Lan, who was ten years old at the time, was called into the palace and became Tu Jinghuai's companion.

It stands to reason that a prince should have a companion when he enters school, but Tu Jinghuai is different from other people, and it is not suitable for him to have a close relationship with the previous dynasty. No one thought of finding him a Accompanied by reading.

"Brother Huai's identity is different after all, so the concubine was negligent before, and didn't think about finding a companion for him to read. After all, it involves the matter of the old prince Yizhong's lineage. It is not a good choice to choose." In front of Tu Mingjun, Yuan Chun frankly stated that he had indeed been negligent before, but at the same time he also expressed his previous concerns.

The prince's companion has always been chosen from among the heirs of the former officials, but Tu Jinghuai's identity is different from the real prince. No matter which family he chooses, it is a trouble. The so-called more things are worse than less things. Really forgot about it.

"The elder concubine originally had the status of a tribute, but he died early and did not have an official position. The sister-in-law of her natal family determined to be a chaste woman. This nephew was originally a posthumous child. Although he is the son of Bai Ding, it is not bad. This is very good." The left and right apprentice Jing Huai was raised under Yuan Chun's knees, so it would be an excellent choice for Yuan Chun's nephew to be his companion.

Firstly, because of Yuanchun, Rongguo Mansion was naturally close to Tu Jinghuai, and secondly, although Jia Lan was the only grandson of Rongguo Mansion's grass-roots generation, he was only a son of Bai Ding's family.In this way, there is no need to worry about what Tu Jinghuai can do with the Rongguo Mansion in the future.

Yuan Chun was very satisfied in his heart, and Rongguo Mansion could have a prince to study with him. The only disharmony was that Jia Mu and the whole second room were thinking about whether Baoyu could enter the palace instead of Jia Lan.

Jia Lan entered the palace in mid-September, but the edict arrived at Rongguo Mansion earlier.Therefore, when she entered the palace as usual in early September, Mrs. Wang mentioned this.

Yuan Chun knew how much his family loved Baoyu, so he didn't find it strange.Although Yuanchun also loves Baoyu, he also knows that Baoyu will not be able to become a great weapon in the future, but Jia Lan has the fate of being a Jinshi and ranks first, so he is still patiently comforting his family.

"Prince Yizhong is only eight years old now, so the companion should be older than him but not too much older. At least he must be able to honestly accompany him in the palace for six or seven years. Baoyu's age I'm almost catching up with the two princes, and I'm about to get married. How can I delay my marriage for seven or eight years? It's always inappropriate to enter the palace. As a rule, our family is not qualified to be accompanied by the prince. If it weren't for The status of Prince Yizhong is different, and it is not our family's turn. Among the unmarried children in our family, only Brother Huan and Brother Lang are the right age. After all, Brother Lang is the grandson of his wife. It would be much better to let Brother Huan in." Yuan Chun knew his mother very well, so he naturally knew how to calm Madam Wang's grievances, "Besides, the prince is my adopted son in name, if Brother Huan is allowed to come in, it will Fame is not easy to calculate.”

Baoyu is now a 15-year-old boy, that is to say, Jia Fu has always been married later, otherwise it would be the age to marry and become a father. Although the family still treats him as a child, it is absolutely impossible into the palace.

"Besides, Baoyu is considered the first master of the family after all, and everyone in this palace has royal status. He can't be regarded as a decent master. At home, Baoyu can use seven or eight servant girls to serve the daily life, but in the palace, he has to rely on himself for everything. God can be gracious, and it is the limit for him to bring a servant girl into the palace. , even if no one is allowed to accompany him, it is not surprising, and he is not qualified to use royal eunuchs." Baoyu was pampered by her family since she was a child, and when she was in Rongguo Mansion, she was accompanied by a dozen maids and servants day and night. Serving carefully, the family members may feel that he has been wronged. If he has to rely on himself for everything in the palace, he will not cause a catastrophe. "Madam, think about it. I'm working hard. The left and right princes are raised under my knees. Baoyu is my direct younger brother. Even if I don't enter the palace this time, I can't lose him in the future. After all, Lan'er is also the grandson of his wife. Although he can't compare with Baoyu, I even Brother Lian is always thinking about it, so he has to give him a future."

If it is true to tell Mrs. Wang that the precious jade is useless, but Jia Lan can do it in the future, of course it will not, even if Yuan Chun is as close to his brothers and nephews as he is in his heart, and knows that this precious jade is precious at home, Jia Lan At best, the treatment is the same as that of Jia Cong and Jia Huan.

So Yuan Chun had no choice but to try his best to talk about the hard work of reading with him.

Because Tu Jinghuai is not very old now, and his companion Jia Lan is also a half-grown child, Jia Lan is allowed to live in the palace temporarily, and only go home once every ten days—Jalan is fine. Li Wan was the only one in the whole family who couldn't bear him, even if he entered the palace, Yuan Chun didn't need to take care of him.But if it were Baoyu, I'm afraid Yuanchun would have to serve a second-tier master.

No wonder Yuanchun didn't want Baoyu to enter the palace.

Whether Mrs. Wang was persuaded by Yuan Chun is not easy to say, but this is the imperial edict of Jinkou Yuyan, but the result cannot be changed anyway.Even what Mrs. Wang said when she entered the palace this time was just a complaint, and she didn't think she could really do anything.

After being comforted by Yuan Chun, Mrs. Wang went back contentedly, and didn't even ask if she wanted to see Jia Lan before leaving.

Although she also knew how much her family favored Baoyu, she never expected that Mrs. Wang, who is a real grandmother, would really dislike Jia Lan so much.

But in this day and age, being unfilial to children and grandchildren is a serious crime, but being unkind to elders is really nothing. Let alone elders like Mrs. Wang who just ignore their grandchildren. Do you grit your teeth and admit it?

Yuan Chun just sighed a little after Mrs. Wang left.

Now the whole family doesn't know that Jia Baoyu is useless, and only thinks that this elder brother who was born with jade can bring glory to the family. Therefore, as the eldest grandson of the second wife who lost his father, it is inevitable that Jia Lan will be ignored by the elders.

"My wife is also confused. Our family is ignoring Lan Geer now. The old lady is doing as she pleases because her glory has come to an end. The wife probably thinks that Lan Geer will be filial to her in the future. It's just that my brother is gone. When Lang Geer grows up, he will naturally be the head of the family. Although in theory, he must be filial, but between being a widow to take care of his biological mother since childhood and neglecting his grandmother, which one can Lang Geer be more filial to? " Yuan Chun didn't like to say that his mother was wrong in front of too many people, but in private he couldn't help sighing, "Baoyu has been spoiled too much, and she has been raised a bit stupidly. It will be good to be able to support herself in the future. It’s impossible to have a big future.”

Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang were concerned about it, but no one in the family could see that Baoyu might not be successful in the future, but it was hard to say anything because of filial piety.Although Yuan Chun is also a junior, but first of all, she is a married woman, and she is no longer a member of the Jia family. Second, she is married into the royal family anyway, and now she is different from her family members. some disrespectful comments.

"But Madam, didn't you respond to the old lady and wife before..." The others were okay, but Baoqin was unavoidably a little puzzled.

Everyone knows that Yuanchun loves Baoyu very much. Although he is a bit merciless in his words now, Baoyu was raised by Yuanchun until he was two or three years old.

At any time before, Yuan Chun had always vowed to his family that he would give Baoyu a good future.

Yuan Chun didn't think much of it: "The old lady and the wife have a lot of private houses, and they will probably leave them to Baoyu in the future. Baoyu will definitely not lack wealth. As for power...he has no intention of official career. For the sake of this Palace, I will find him a good marriage, and then just let him live a leisurely life."

Some people in this world love wealth and some people love power, but Baoyu sneers at these things, but some people love popularity and beauty. If they only want to be famous and talented, such an attitude will have a taste of being a celebrity.
