[Comprehensive] The Giant of the Red Chamber

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of re-election, and Jiang Yingrong had already handed over the list of candidates for the [-]th and [-]th to Kangxi for review.Now the position of the prince is fairly stable. Although there are a few adult princes who make some moves from time to time, the brothers are still relatively friendly on the surface, and the position is stable. Kangxi will not deliberately suppress the other sons in order to show the specialness of the prince. Even overly doubting whether there is a purpose in the marriage.In addition, Kangxi has always liked the fourteenth, and he will not make troubles in marriage, so when he saw the person chosen by the concubine De, he immediately decided on the concubine Fujin, and even felt a little bit of concubine De's choice for the fourteenth. Fujin is not noble enough.

This is the case with the emperor. If you fight openly, he can't help but wonder if you have ulterior motives; Being wronged, Kangxi is nothing less than the same.It has to be said that Concubine De, to be precise, the ingenuity of the original Wuya clan's selection of candidates, the Fujin she selected as the concubine are all surnames, especially the Wanyan clan. The nobles, the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty are many descendants of these, the blood is naturally nobler, just like the old family is always more respected than the new dignitaries.However, the influence of these families in the court is not too great. They have real power but are not conspicuous. According to the degree of favor that Shisi is currently favored at first glance, he feels a little wronged.In this way, Kangxi left a good impression. He felt that he had to make up for his son's loss in other places in the future.

With Kangxi himself in charge, the reelection was even more peaceful, without even a little splash, and the three high-ranking concubines even showed a rare harmony.It's just that even after two rounds of contact, Jiang Yingrong still didn't notice the abnormality of the little rice cake, so she guessed that the change might be later, just wait and see.

Passing the re-election does not mean that everything will be fine, and they have to go through the stay in the palace for inspection, and then select the number of people based on their performance, and the rest will put up their cards.The show girls go home for a brief reunion with their relatives, and after a simple tidying up, they have to enter the palace to accept the final test. From this point of view, if the show girls want to stand out, they have to go through five trials and kill six generals, and go through a lot of fighting to stay in the end.

When Lin Yu returned to the Rongguo Mansion, she was greeted with even greater enthusiasm by Mother Jia and the others, and everyone in the Rongguo Mansion also showed a faint respect for her.After all, Lin Yu will either directly enter the palace and become a concubine, or be accused of being given to a certain prince. No matter what the situation is, he will be like a master to the Rongguo Mansion in the future, and this attitude will naturally change.As for the possibility of Lin Yu's final defeat, Jiamu and the others selectively ignored it. Since they have reached this point, there will be no surprises. Jiamu and the others are more confident than Lin Yu, the right leader.

With the idea of ​​relying on Lin Yu, Jia Mu and the others were even more generous, and bought them according to the highest standard that a beautiful woman in the palace could bring. There are also a lot of small silver bills of ten or one hundred, as well as scattered silver and gold and silver coins that are convenient for rewarding people, and they are all put in the impromptu purse.The time to get together is always short. The Rongguo Mansion has been busy for several days without stopping, and finally Lin Yu got into the carriage to enter the palace during the reluctant farewell of Jia Mu and others.

When Lin Ruhai from Yangzhou received the news sent back quickly, Lin Yu had already stayed in Chuxiu Palace with all the candidates for the draft.In addition to being re-teached by the nuns on a daily basis, they also have to deal with various school exams, such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, female celebrity cooking skills, and are graded one by one.Lin Yu guessed that those who were behind in the final score must be eliminated, so she had to show the professionalism she had for the college entrance examination back then, not daring to relax in the slightest. Fortunately, she had a correct attitude and was serious in doing things. He doesn't like to provoke troubles, although apart from his culinary skills and female celebrities, the others are all mediocre, but it left a pretty good impression on the hearts of several nuns who are in charge of the school examination.In fact, with the help of the strategy system, Lin Yu's culinary skills have been trained to be eye-catching enough, but she still adheres to the principle of not showing too much, and only shows a six-point level.

Such a strategy is undoubtedly successful, at least no one pays too much attention to Lin Yu, an object with mediocre qualifications, and no one regards her as a possible potential competitor in the future. center of.Of course, under Lin Yu's intentional or unintentional overtures, he successfully hooked up with the little rice cake Nian Xiyue. The two of them can be regarded as companions in the tense Chuxiu Palace, so they will not be isolated and helpless.In addition to Xiaonian Gao, Lin Yu can also talk to a few beautiful girls with better tempers, especially a few beautiful girls who she knows are going to enter the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Mansions, in order to establish a good relationship in advance Thoughts, more or less can be regarded as a little bit of face.

Speaking of Xiao Nian Gao, Nian Xiyue, she knew from the very beginning that she was going to enter Sibeile's mansion. This was because her brother got through with Sibeile in advance. It's not a temperament that is good at forbearance. If she accidentally has a quarrel with other beautiful girls, no matter whether it is caused by her or not, even if she is sitting alone in a corner, someone will notice and come forward to find fault.The number of times is too many, and the impression of her from the nuns will be two points worse. It can be said that it is not caused by you once or twice. If you are there every time, it is hard to tell even if there are ten mouths. You bastard, you can't team up and try to slander you.

In this way, Xiao Nian Gao will inevitably suffer several punishments and grievances. Everyone in the huge palace can't wait to avoid her, for fear of being involved. At this time, a cute little girl who secretly helps her hide the steamed buns appears, and even hides her under her clothes. When she was getting wet, she secretly gave her two sets of clean clothes while no one was there.Although she did it secretly for fear of being implicated, and didn't even dare to say a word to her in front of others, Nian Xiyue felt very heartwarming and moved.When the two met, they looked at each other with a smile, or secretly gave each other a look, Nian Xiyue was also happy in her heart, she knew that she was not alone in the palace, and there was a timid little sister who always kindly helped her, deliberately The isolation is no longer difficult.This little cutie knew it was Lin Yu without guessing. On the one hand, Lin Yu wanted to have a close look at the famous Concubine Nian, and on the other hand, he wanted to establish a good relationship in advance. In a difficult situation, at least Xiao Nian Gao will not regard her as a hostile object from the beginning.

Lin Yu didn't expect to cut off Xiao Nian Gao's chance to enter Sibeile's mansion ahead of time, and eradicate the biggest competitor in the future, but the strategy system was in a hurry.According to the idea of ​​the strategy system, the host it is bound to should be a type like Nian Xiyue who has a peerless beauty and a rare talent. Unfortunately, the host is not up to date, and such good innate conditions are wasted. Lin Yu is not good at all. Self-confident, and another ideal-type person is about to become a competitor, the strategy system only feels that his upgrade path is far away.Since the host is not strong enough, it can only do it secretly.

So on a dark and windy night, it should be in the dead of night, Nian Xiyue, who was punished to kneel again, dragged her stinging knees and tired body slowly into the room, but suddenly saw a man at the corner. The little eunuch quickly flashed past with a person on his shoulders. Originally, Nian Xiyue was going to pretend she couldn't see. Anyway, everyone in Chuxiu Palace wanted her to have an accident immediately, so don't expect her to be kind.It's just that when he was about to withdraw his gaze, his heart froze when he saw the familiar hairpin on the unconscious man's head, and he immediately followed it.

Nian Xiyue was only focused on confirming the identity of that person, and for a moment ignored why it was so quiet along the way, and there were no guards. It was too late when she realized something was wrong. At this moment, she was standing by a small lake, surrounded by It was quiet, and there was no trace of a human figure. When she was about to go back, her feet slipped and plopped for no reason, and she fell into the water.

Before the panic in Nian Xiyue's heart fully arose, she heard someone not far away asking, "What's the sound?"

Soon a little eunuch came over to investigate the situation and shouted, "Someone fell into the water."

With just a few plops, Nian Xiyue, who was struggling in the water, was quickly sent ashore by two young eunuchs.All this happened too fast, and when she was out of danger and limp on the ground, she began to feel uncontrollable fear.

"Are you the selected show girl?" A deep voice sounded, although it was a question, it was affirmative.

Being able to walk freely in the harem so late, and hearing the voice of an adult man again, Nian Xiyue immediately guessed who the person who saved her was in front of her, and knelt on the ground with her weak body: "My daughter kowtowed to the emperor, long live the emperor! Long live." There was an obvious tremor in the voice, whether it was fear, nervousness, or the coldness that hit the upper body when the night wind blew.

Because she was rescued too quickly, and because Nian Xiyue must have slipped on the soles of her feet when she fell into the water, and no one deliberately harmed her, at this moment, she didn't suspect that someone deliberately lured her out to kill her. The contacts with Daiyu are all in private, others don't know the relationship between the two of them, even if they are seduced, how can they be sure that she will definitely take the bait.So Nian Xiyue endured the discomfort in her body and quickly turned her brain to come to such a conclusion.In this way, it is very likely that Daiyu is still in danger, and Nian Xiyue is even more worried when she thinks about it.

It's just that Kangxi who passed by here looked at Xiu Nu trembling under his feet, and couldn't help but start conspiracy theories in his heart, suspecting that someone murdered Xiu Nu's life in the palace, it was really audacious.Kangxi didn't doubt that the beautiful girl in front of him directed and acted to attract his attention. He was used to the methods of concubines, but no one had ever sacrificed their lives. Obviously born with a good appearance, the possibility of being murdered by jealousy is greater.

Before Kangxi could ask, Nian Xiyue kowtowed her head first, "Your majesty, I saw someone abducting a beautiful girl by accident. I just followed here in a hurry, but I didn't expect to follow her." I lost it, and when I was about to go back to ask for help, I accidentally slipped and fell into the water, I beg the emperor to send someone to investigate, I am afraid that the beautiful girl is in danger if it is too late."

"You can really see it?" Kangxi didn't expect this reason. Liang Jiugong, who had already checked by the lake, said that there was indeed no trace of the second person.

"The courtier is far away, and the lights are dim, but the unconscious woman is indeed wearing the clothes of a beautiful lady, and she went out from Chuxiu Palace." Nian Xiyue didn't make any guesses, she thought if she saw it wrong, wouldn't she? Daiyu, isn't it just causing trouble for her, it's better to say it vaguely, as long as someone can be sent to investigate.

Kangxi stared at Nian Xiyue, who had been keeping a prostration posture but always kept her back straight, her body trembling involuntarily, because the clothes stuck to her body made her thinner, as weak as a pampas grass swaying in the wind, but her tone was full of worry He Yiyi is firm, not afraid when he sees him, even dares to ask him to find someone, and then thinks that he came out alone in order to chase someone, it seems that he is a very courageous master, he is really unbelievable.Kangxi became a little interested, but he did not forget to tell Liang Jiugong to send someone to investigate.

Liang Jiugong sent people to investigate in the direction pointed by Nian Xiyue, and at the same time sent people to Chuxiu Palace to count the number of people to see if there were any missing people.

"Head up."

After hearing Liang Jiugong's arrangement, Nian Xiyue felt relieved, but Kangxi's words made her heart tremble again. After today, she might not be able to fulfill her brother's wish. Nian Xiyue is also a decisive person. Since she met today, She had no choice but to fight hard, so she got up slowly obediently, and adjusted to the perfect kneeling posture that she had honed a hundred times.
