Crimson Pearl Tears in a Dream of Red Mansions

When the imperial decree was passed to Yuqing Palace, Yuanchun and Tanchun, together with Yinreng's other concubines, enjoyed flowers in the Ruoshui Pavilion where the Crown Princess Guerjia lived. "Fujin, this flower is so unique, my slaves don't know what kind it is?" A gege Fan Jia from Yinfeng has loved flowers and plants since childhood, and everyone in Yuqing Palace knows it, so this Fan Jia will ask such questions. In terms of words, everyone didn't think it was strange, and they also wanted to know what kind of flower this plant in front of them was, and it was so beautiful.

Guer Jia looked at the pot with eight camellias of different colors that was sent to her by his brother Shi Zhang, and she was very happy, and she also liked Fan Jia's prudence and lack of scheming.So he laughed and said: "It's normal if you don't recognize it. This is the best camellia in Dali, Yunnan. Within the Dali Imperial Palace, it is hard for the common people to find it. It was my brother who went to Dali to find it by accident, otherwise it would be hard for me to get it."

When Yuanchun heard the words, he smiled and said: "It turns out that Fujin is blessed with deep blessings, otherwise, how could the servants have the opportunity to see such precious camellias?" Guarjia smiled, looked at Tanchun again and said: " Ying Fang Fujin, you and Yuan Gege are both pregnant, and it is getting colder and colder, you must take care of your health, His Royal Highness has few heirs, and I am counting on you to help His Royal Highness." After hearing this, Chun and Yuanchun hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Hearing this, Wu Yun felt sore. She finally gave birth to an imperial grandson, but was murdered by someone. Otherwise, she would call her "Er Niang" now.So he secretly glared at Yuan Chun angrily, and secretly thought about how to get rid of this thorn in his side and thorn in his flesh.

Just at this moment, I saw Li Dequan walking in. The Guerjia family saw it, hurriedly went up to meet him, and said with a smile: "Why is Li Wenda free to come and sit here?" Li Dequan said with a smile: "Prince Princess, you are welcome. , the slaves are just ordered by the emperor to announce the decree to Yingfang Fujin and Yuangege." After hearing this, the Guarjia family laughed quickly and said, "I'm well-versed in labor." Then he ordered someone to set up an incense table.Li Dequan smiled and said: "It's not a big deal, so don't bother." After saying that, he took out a roll of shining imperial edict from his cuff.

The Guerjia family and everyone saw it, and knelt down quickly, only to listen to Li Dequan opening the imperial decree and proclaiming: "By God, the emperor's edict said: Jia's Tanchun and Jia's Yuanchun have meritorious deeds in conceiving the emperor's grandson. I am very happy and very happy." The decree is to allow Jia's Tanchun and Jia's Yuanchun to return home to visit their relatives on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month during the Lantern Festival. Hereby!"

Under the decree, the hearts of all the people below, including the Guerjia family, are different. It turns out that only the emperor's concubines are eligible to come to this province in person. Since Kangxi ascended the throne, no concubine in the harem has been allowed to return with this honor. Family visits, of course, except for Daiyu. After all, although Daiyu holds the phoenix seal of the harem, she is only a princess with a foreign surname.Now the emperor has suddenly bestowed this holy favor on the two coat servants, Fang Fujin and Gege, but he doesn't know what the intention is.

Of course, the only one who thinks so far is the Crown Princess Guerjia. As for the others, apart from Tanchun and Yuanchun who received the order, they are all envious and deeply jealous.But Li Dequan didn't care what they thought, he had to go to Rongguo Mansion to announce the imperial edict, so he said: "I have to go to Rongguo Mansion to announce the decree, so I won't stay any longer, I will leave."

After Li Dequan left, Tanchun and Yuanchun were overwhelmed with joy. Of course, they knew that only the emperor's concubines were qualified to visit relatives. Now that the emperor suddenly issued this decree, does it mean that His Highness the Crown Prince will be crowned a great treasure in the future? They Can also become the lord of the first palace?Thinking of this, Tanchun and Yuanchun felt inexplicably excited, wishing they could go back to the mansion right now and tell the mansion about this, so that they would support Prince Yinreng and give up Babeile Yinsi.

But Wu Yun saw Yuan Chun's happy appearance, but she almost pinched her hand to bleed with hatred. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, but a faint chill appeared in her eyes, and she said to herself, "Jia Yuanchun, you can be proud, when it's time to visit your relatives." Day, I will definitely make you cry bitterly, so angry that you want to die!"

On the other hand, when Li Dequan arrived at Jia's house, Jia's mother was waiting for a message from Jiao Da. It turned out that Jia's mother didn't know that Shi Xiulian was dead. She estimated that the phantom medicine that Shi Xiulian was taking was about to take effect, and she had to take the antidote to the phantom medicine quickly, otherwise if Shi Xiulian died, her plan would be in vain.Thinking of this, Mother Jia couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

At this moment, I saw a servant named Mo Yu running in front of Baoyu, and said to Jia Mu: "Old lady, the chief executive Li in the palace in front is here to announce the emperor's imperial edict. The elder and the second master invite the old lady." In the past." Mother Jia narrowed her eyes when she heard the words, and said, "Do you know what the imperial decree is?" Mo Yu said, "Director Li hasn't announced it yet, and said that he will wait until the old lady and the ladies arrive. Xuan."

When Jia Mu heard this, she was not surprised. What imperial decree must be declared by all the people?So he hurriedly said to Mo Yu: "Okay, I understand, you go down first." He ordered Yuanyang to say, "Quick, change my clothes quickly." Put it on for Jia Mu.

When Mother Jia arrived at the Rongxi Hall, she saw that Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang had already arrived there, and the master and girl even knelt down on the ground, but looking at Li Dequan's appearance, the decree would not be a bad thing. Because he was busy, he was supported by the mandarin duck and knelt at the front, saying: "The servant respectfully receives the imperial edict."

Li Dequan saw that everyone was present, so he re-announced the imperial decree announced in Yuqing Palace, saying: "This is the kindness that Princess Shuning asked the emperor for, and your residence is very grateful to Princess Shuning." When Jia Zheng heard this, he was very puzzled, because he asked, "Why did Princess Shuning ask for it?"

Li Dequan said: "If you want to come to your mansion, you should have heard that Princess Shuning was captured by thieves some time ago. Fortunately, Second Master Lian of your mansion met him and escorted her back. Princess Shuning is naturally grateful, so when she enters the palace today Because they heard that Yan Ying, Fujin and Yuan Gege missed their relatives, they begged for this decree in front of the emperor, and it is also a blessing for your family."

Upon hearing this, Mother Jia thought that her plan had already begun to be perfectly realized, and she was extremely proud. What if she didn't have decent descendants, she, a woman, could still cover the sky with one hand, turn the clouds upside down, and one day, she would let this mansion escape. If she lost her identity as Bao Yi and became the real master and bannerman, then, not only the Jia family, but also Yuan Chun and Tan Chun would all be at their beck and call after they became the masters of the first palace?

But Jia Mu didn't show anything on her face, she just said: "Slaves thank you for your grace." Li Dequan handed the imperial decree to Jia Mu, and then said: "By the way, the emperor heard that there are some daring slaves in your mansion. I am very displeased with this matter, but I will not care about it for the sake of Yingfang Fujin and Yuangege, and hope that the old lady will handle it carefully, and don't let a group of slaves ruin your family's bright future."

Mother Jia was not surprised when she heard the words. She didn't know what Li Dequan meant. She raised her head and glanced at Li Dequan, but seeing Li Dequan's eyes were calm, she felt relieved. She seemed to have relaxed a little these days. The slaves started to make trouble!So he said: "Slaves, please follow the holy edict."

After sending Li Dequan away, everyone below immediately became happy, and Mrs. Wang was even more proud. It seemed that she was getting closer and closer to the time when she was in charge of the entire Jia's house, even though Aunt Zhao was Tanchun's biological mother. , but she didn't put Aunt Zhao in her eyes, she was just a slave, even if the daughter she gave birth to became a phoenix, she would not be able to change her life. If you want her to die, you have to die?

After thinking about it, Mrs. Wang finally felt that it was not such an honor to entrust her daughter with the imperial decree of the emperor, so she said to Jia's mother, "Old lady, this time Fujin is going back to the house to visit relatives. According to my daughter-in-law, this After all, the mansion is a bit shabby, why not find some craftsmen to repair and repair it, and it would be good to build a relative's villa."

When Jia Mu heard this, she thought about it carefully, and said: "Your words are also true, but the construction of a family-saving villa is not a small matter after all, and I'm afraid it's impossible without a few hundred thousand taels of silver!"

As soon as Madam Wang heard it, she knew that Jiamu was distressed by Yinzi, and she was naturally displeased, but she couldn't show it, so she said with a smile: "It's not difficult, our mansion is big enough, and we don't need to buy any more land. Only the old houses on the east side were demolished and refurbished, and the Jinxia Pavilion, Liufangyuan, and Yihong Courtyard where Baoyu lived were included, which was big enough. As for the craftsmen, the Xue family had them all. I only need to discuss with my sister about the shop in this area, and it won't cost much if I think about it. Besides, the pattern of the provincial house, there is a Qingke called Shan Ziye under the master's door, which is the best, and we don't need to hire another person of."

After hearing this, Jia Mu thought about it carefully, because she had called Sister Feng and said, "Girl Feng, how many taels of silver can I get out of that account now?" The money has not been paid yet, if the monthly payment is paid, there will only be about 5 taels of silver left, plus the rent that can be collected, there will only be [-] taels of silver.”

Mrs. Wang frowned when she heard this, and said, "Girl Feng, how come there are only so many? Are you making a mistake?" Of course, Sister Feng knew what Mrs. Wang meant, didn't she just want to coax herself to take out the money? , she can take it if she can, but now she has a Qiaojie, she naturally wants to plan for her daughter, so she said with a smile: "Madam, I have been wronged to death. During this period of time, all the people in the house, big and small There are a lot of things, and there are a lot of expenses for the management of Fujin Palace, and now there are so many silver taels left, it is considered a lot."

Mrs. Wang was very angry when she heard this, but she didn't dare to show it in front of Jia's house, so she just snorted and stopped talking.
