The red house is not a pity

When Daiyu heard this, she turned to look at Lin Que, smiled and shook her head, "You are still young, there will always be a time when you will come out. I am an older sister, and I have my own responsibilities. Who made you a younger brother? If you were an older brother, I would There is no need to do this anymore." What Daiyu didn't say was that the fact that her younger brother was alive was the greatest help to her.

If there is no younger brother, Daiyu can't believe what kind of life it would be...

"Sister, I just inquired about it. This time, the elder sister has the highest rank in the palace. The emperor's harem has no other concubines except the queen. The elder sister's rank is not only the highest among this batch of beautiful women, but also Other than the queen, she has the highest status."

Daiyu became a show girl, and after the main election, she received the order from the palace where the show girl was.So before leaving the palace, who was selected, who was not selected, and who got what rank was known at the time.

Lin Que waited outside the palace gate early in the morning, and received all the news from inside.Although after Daiyu came out, he took people back home.But I still kept my confidant servant to listen to the whole story, and the servant had already told him one by one when he returned home just now.

Fortunately, my sister's rank in the palace is high enough, otherwise, the place where people cannibalize would be oppressed.However, he has to study harder, and if he is nominated for the gold list as soon as possible, his sister will be more confident in the harem.

He is a man, and it is his responsibility to revitalize the Lin family and protect his family.Supporting his sister and giving her the greatest help outside the palace is the only thing he can do.

He will work very hard, very hard, so that all the women in the palace will be courteous to his sister.Because he was outside the palace, those women's families... were also outside the palace.

If it is said that Lin Que only wanted to become an official in the court before falling into the Lin family's lintel, he only wanted to protect himself.Now, his goal is clearer.

He doesn't need to be a powerful minister, but he must become the emperor's confidant, and then be a court official who can deter all officials.Thinking of this, Lin Que prepared to train the group of people who were about to take shape outside the capital.

Five years ago, he listened to Xichun's joke and used the people left by his father to quietly cultivate a group of young people.Now this group of people has more or less gained a foothold in various places.Some have even become officials.

If it weren't for the fourth girl, he would not have known that there were spies sent by the emperor in his mansion. Fortunately, he knew about it early, so he adjusted his subordinates in time.

Now he is going to see how many of these people entered the palace as maids in the palace a few years ago, and whether there are any who followed the main girl into the palace.If there is, I will count the list and tell my sister, so that my sister can have an eyeliner in the palace.

Thinking of this, Lin Que was as depressed as Xue Baochai. A five or six-year-old girl entered the palace as a maid, so how could his people guarantee their loyalty.It seems that the group of people he accompanied can only be sent to various courtiers' mansions through Renzizi.

Those families with girls should be prioritized, and more people should be released. In this way, even if the person he arranges can't walk into the girl's side smoothly, it will not be a loss.If he can know some secrets in the mansion, he doesn't count others, it's just...

Being an emperor is nothing.Even if he wants to train some servants and send them to the palace for his sister to use, there is probably no other way.

...Because not only the maids limit the age of entering the palace, but even the eunuchs have also made age regulations.

In order to win the hearts of these eunuchs, Shui Yan purposely circled a place outside the palace near the palace gate, which will be used as a cemetery for these eunuchs in the future. The place where eunuchs learn rules and practice.These eunuchs are most worried about old age and funeral arrangements, and now they have even solved this problem, and it will be even more difficult to bribe them in the future.

Lin Que had no choice but to find a way to make his own person become a wet nurse.

......

Back to the present, seeing the two siblings like this, Jia Min suppressed the soreness in his heart, "My son was named a concubine in the first election, and once he enters the palace, he will be the lord of the palace. You can bring more dowry and dowry in, and your mother will also be married." You can rest assured."

After a month of palace life, Daiyu had long since lost her shyness when talking about these topics. When she heard Jia Min say this, Daiyu just pursed her lips and smiled.

"By the way, who is my sister going to bring into the palace?" Lin Que thought of the purpose of entering the palace next month, and was a little worried that he would be too busy.

The servants brought into the palace must be loyal and proper, and it is best to have those kind of parents and family members in the palace.In addition to this, he also has a few people who can be used.

...he really wanted to arm his sister to the teeth.

"There have been a few imperial decrees before, among which it was said that a concubine can bring three people into the palace. My son will bring a nanny and two maids. The nanny is getting older and knows more. "

"Well, I'll think about the choice of candidates, and then discuss it with my mother." The people brought in must be loyal and reliable, otherwise they won't know how they died.

It doesn't matter if she dies, but the family who loves her will be sad.

It doesn't matter if she dies, if her family is implicated, she will die ten thousand times, and it will be hard to feel at ease.

"That's fine, for personal matters, you should come up with a charter yourself first. I have already planned for the others to be brought into the palace." The Lin family is not short of money, so her daughter naturally wants to bring a batch of better ones into the palace.

"Well, I'll leave those things to my mother. The Mid-Autumn Festival will be in a few days, and I will think about how to spend this year's Mid-Autumn Festival with my mother tomorrow." This is the last Mid-Autumn Festival she will spend at home, Daiyu Thinking of this, I felt a little sad, but when I saw my mother's appearance, I quickly stopped, "Fourth sister, they still have news, did they say when they will return to the capital?" I don't know if she can see her before entering the palace. To the side of the fourth sister.

But Daiyu thought about it again, when she was in the palace, she saw what the Empress Dowager meant, and when Brother Rong's daughter-in-law came back, she would surely recruit her fourth sister to the palace, and she could meet up at that time.

Jia Min shook his head, "Last month, when you were in the palace, the fourth girl was sent back. I heard that they are still on the way." With the royal guards following, Jia Min was not worried about their safety along the way, but I really missed her for so long.

"Mother, don't worry, she will always turn around before the end of the year at the latest." Daiyu covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, hiding her yawn.

Seeing this, Jia Min quickly asked Daiyu to go back to her room to rest, and discuss other matters later.Anyway, Xichun and his colleagues can't come back in a day or two, so it's useless for them to worry.

Daiyu didn't refuse, got up and took the girl back to the room.

During this month in the palace, my nerves were tense all the time.When you see someone having an accident all the time, don't mention your mood.When she got home, Daiyu felt pain all over her body, wishing she could lie on the bed and sleep for three hundred rounds immediately.

But how could she turn a blind eye to the worry of her mother and brother.

Daiyu left, her figure gradually disappeared outside the yard, and finally Jia Min couldn't help crying anymore.

Although with Daiyu's identity and their Lin family's status, and her own imperial order, she was forced to enter the palace several times a month.But she is just such a girl, and it will be her life's regret not to see her get married in a red wedding gown with a phoenix crown and a xiapei, with ten miles of red make-up.

She... I'm sorry for the old master's entrustment!

......

For Daiyu, everything was settled.Xichun and his party also learned about Daiyu's entry into the palace.

It turns out that Xichun and his party have been traveling by land, and they have to repair every place they go.On the second day after leaving the capital, the group did not follow the official route back to the south, but made a detour to a famous town in the west.

Originally, it is not allowed to go on a self-guided leisure tour in public for helping spirits during the filial piety period, but there is no taboo for visiting temples and so on.

...The ancients were still in awe of gods and Buddhas.

It is reasonable for the group to delay there for a while under the pretext of praying for the blessings of the ancestors.

However, the accommodation is a bit inconvenient.However, cats have cat ways, and rats have mouse ways.This era also has the profession of 'real estate broker'.

So every time I go to a place, let the servants rent a house from them in advance, and then return the rent after finishing, which is more comfortable and quiet than staying in a hotel.

And the servants of the Lin family who were sent out by Jia Min who didn't know about it went straight to the official road back to the south to chase after him.I chased him all the way to Jinling and didn't see him.Later, the members of the Lin family wondered if this group of people were all spoiled guests, so they were not used to traveling by land, so they changed their plan to take the water route.

So the servants of the Lin family chartered a boat in Jinling again, and headed towards the capital to welcome them. This time, they arrived at Tongzhou and went ashore. The servants of the Lin family had no choice but to report to the capital.

Fuling's team went more and more sideways. They set off after Qingming and walked until Mid-Autumn Festival. The group did not reach Jinling City, but arrived at the foot of Mount Wutai.

Not to mention that the Lin family couldn't find Xichun and others, even the emperor and queen mother in the palace were very surprised when they heard the guards report where they had gone and then stopped, how did they get there? Yes, what is the route?

To be honest, no one thought that Xichun and his gang would carry coffins all over the world.Even Jia Rong and Jia Qiang in the team are no exception.

It's not easy to go out these days, Xichun felt that it was very necessary for her to pay homage to all the famous mountains and ancient temples, and ask the eminent monks in the temples to perform rituals and recite sutras for these coffins.

Does filial piety move the world?

Anyway, she was moved by herself.

For the fact that Daiyu will enter the palace, Xichun was almost shocked to death.

Although Daiyu's personality tends to be a bit like that of Sister Feng, no matter what, she never thought that she would enter the palace.

But when she knew that the purpose of the draft was mandatory, Xichun didn't worry about it anymore.

When she received the news that Daiyu was first made a concubine, Xichun was still interested in telling Qin Keqing that the emperor had vision.

Xichun has read a lot of palace fighting novels before, and also heard the little stories of the current palace fighting from the nuns. The concept of the palace is bloody, life and death.

Although it is no longer a real white lotus, but it is still a special Daiyu-style Lin Daiyu, Xichun is still more worried about her.

Firstly, it was due to years of sisterhood.

Second, it is out of own consideration.

Since ancient times, one person attained the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascended to heaven.There are too many things where one person suffers and the whole family is destroyed.

She will be tied to the Lin family in the future, so if something happens to Daiyu in the palace, her situation will not be very good.

After much deliberation, Xichun decided to let Nanny Yang "retire from old age and return to her hometown", and then send her to Daiyu's side to protect Daiyu in a different face.

Originally, Xichun wanted to make Liu'er and Yang Nanny change their faces in the past few years, but now when such a thing happened, she made Yang Nanny disappear in front of everyone, and then promoted Liu'er to become a nanny.

So within a few days, Nanny Yang left.

Feng'er, the girl with Xichun's letter, hurried all the way to Lin's house in the capital.

When we get to Lin's house, don't worry about Jia Min worrying about this strange girl.But Daiyu and his brother are convinced of it.

Daiyu thought that Xichun was willing to give her such a treasure, and how could she not believe it when she sent herself a maid who was talented in both civil and military affairs.

...Not only do they have no conflict of interest, they are also family members under the same position.

She believes in her.

And Lin Que was even more so. Although he didn't know why Xichun's purse was on his sister, nor did he know the real purpose of that purse, but she was his fourth girl, so he believed her.

In fact, it's not that Jia Min doesn't believe in Xichun, but that Xichun's temperament is too unreliable to convince her that she can handle things properly.

But her son and daughter believed so much, so she had nothing to say.

The puppet named Feng'er stayed by Daiyu's side in this way, until Daiyu was successfully promoted to queen mother, Xichun quietly asked Feng'er to come back.

The puppet is capable and loyal, Wen Neng is a butler to settle accounts and become a female celebrity, Wu Neng Sanda sneak attack and identify poison.It is rare and generous for Xichun to lend Daiyu such a necessary item for home and travel for 30 years.

The person who will enter the palace with Daiyu has been determined.One was Nanny Xia whom Qin Keqing hired for her back then, one was Feng'er, and the other was a son of the Lin family.

At the same time, she is also Daiyu's big girl - Xuejing.

The other girls were a little afraid of entering the palace.Only Xueqing was willing to go in.

Xuejing's father, according to this era, is a life that beats his wife.

He married three daughters-in-law one after another, and each daughter-in-law was good at giving birth.Unfortunately, Xueqing is the eldest daughter of his father's second wife.

The original wife gave birth to two sons and a daughter, and the second mother, Xue Jing, gave birth to a son and a daughter.The third and current Xueqing stepmother also gave birth to two sons and a daughter.

Not from the original spouse, nor from the mother's stepmother, Xuejing and her younger brother's childhood can really be described by the phrase 'small cabbage, yellow ground'.

Mother couldn't let go of her younger brother until she died, so Xuejing only asked her to live a good life, and she didn't ask for anything else.

Jia Min arranged Xuejing's younger brother to be a servant beside Lin Que.

Jia Min had experienced the pain of dowry and bed climbing, so she immediately took care of Xuejing's family, especially Xuejing's younger brother, who was directly transferred to be Lin Que's follower.

......

Daiyu is going to the palace next month, and Xichun won't be able to make it back no matter what.

When she asked Feng'er to go to the capital, she specially found a lot of things from her private room for Daiyu to bring into the palace.Not only that, she also made a long list for Feng'er to purchase.Then he brought it directly into the capital and quietly handed it over to Daiyu.

Buy hundreds of boxes of rouge gouache and spices from the south, hundreds of books on wild history and travel notes, fruit snacks, fruit candied fruit, and various kinds of dried meat, cooked food with smoked sauce, precious silver frost carbon, various medicine balls, etc. I bought a dozen of inner clothes, skirt materials, and even fire pockets...

I have read too many Gong Dou's novels, and in Xichun's view, the most terrifying thing in them is not the frame-up between the masters and the sons, but the House of Internal Affairs, which is in charge of the palace's supplies.

In a second- and third-rate family like the Jia family, the servants of the housekeeper would watch the dishes, and the servants in the palace were even more so.

At first glance, Daiyu is the kind of protagonist character in all Gongdou novels who will be framed and suppressed again and again, so it is very necessary to prepare these living materials.

Thinking that Daiyu might be framed by someone and live in a deserted cold palace, Xichun asked people to get a lot of cotton fabrics, curtains, curtains, window paper, etc., and then wrapped them in big bags of various flower seeds and vegetable seeds.

But Xichun also thought of it, anyway, there is Mammy Yang, oh no, it should be called Feng'er now.Anyway, with Feng'er here, if Daiyu lacks anything, Feng'er can come out and buy it.

Anyway, with the ability of a puppet, he went to the palace all these years without being noticed.

And the people in the palace don't know what's going on. They lost a chicken today and a dessert tomorrow, but no one has ever looked for it or made a statement.As if it wasn't there in the first place.

In the end, Xichun didn't even dare to let people go to the emperor's small kitchen to get something to eat.At first, I was just curious, but it's so strange that I lost something and didn't even say anything.

...Although every time she asks someone to take a slightly more expensive food, she will leave the raw materials she found, and the ordinary food will also leave silver, but the finished things suddenly become raw or silver, Isn't it strange?

Or is it that this kind of thing has been seen a lot, so it's no surprise?

Xichun suppressed her strange guesses about the people in the palace, and no longer dared to order food from the palace.This made the people in the small kitchen really regret it for a long time.

You must know that every time Xichun gives things of high quality and quantity, and she also gives a lot of money.

The emperor's small kitchen was always worn out, and every time Xichun bought food, it would be put on it, and then the person in charge would leave things and money.

Given Shui Yan's habit of disliking rewards for palace people, it is already a rare and precious thing for the people in the small kitchen to make a fortune.However, Xichun makes many people's dream of getting rich come to an end.

Aside from what is there, Xichun is not worried at all about whether the things she bought are too much.She knew that Daiyu had room to store these things, and she would not take up Daiyu's share of the dowry.

A concubine can only bring a few dowry loads into the palace, so Jia Min made the box big and deep, so how much more can it hold.
