Enemies in the Red Chamber

It is a big event for a woman to get married. After getting engaged, she must prepare to take care of her body and embroider her dowry. She can no longer go out to play at will like before.A group of little girls who played well with Daiyu came to congratulate Daiyu after hearing about it. The little girls laughed and joked with Daiyu, and asked Daiyu if she knew what Young Master Yang looked like. Sister, don't worry, I'll ask my seventh brother to help you take a look, if you don't look good, beat him up."

Daiyu recalled Yang Shili's embarrassment when they met that day, with smiles on his face and beckoning little sisters to form a circle, Daiyu said in a low voice, "I told you not to spread the word, my wife took me to see it, I agree with my wife."

"Ah..." Several people covered their mouths and exclaimed in surprise, their eyes widened in disbelief, and they whispered, "Mrs. Lin is so kind!"

Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, pointed her index finger around, and said: "Teach you to be good, I guess it's almost time, you must remember to be a good daughter, and you can be nice when the time comes so we can see you in advance."

Wu Lin laughed loudly, "My mother also said that sister Lin is a lady, and she wants me to learn from her. I really should let her come and see for herself."

Miss Song laughed when she saw her disregarding her appearance, and raised her hand to tap her forehead, "You still blame your aunt for calling you, look at these people who are as good at wielding knives as you are, that is, we people don't dislike it." You." Everyone laughed.

They all like Wu Lin's temper, take Wu Lin as a pistachio, and never feel that there is anything wrong with Wu Lin being careless. Wu Lin is not stupid, and she can be a well-behaved lady outside. He looks a little silly in front of people close to him.She is really pure in mind, and she is not using straightforwardness to cover up her scheming.Especially Daiyu, who has seen a lot of intrigue and inner vicissitudes, especially likes Wu Lin.

After making a fuss, just as I was about to go to play something else, I saw Lu Yang leading two little girls in, holding a bunch of things.It turned out that Brother Liu saw some new things from somewhere, and bought them for his sister to play with. When he heard that there were female customers, he asked the girl to bring them.Daiyu smiled and told Lv Yang to put down her things, and left Lv Yang to play with the other girls, before calling everyone to come and see.The girls gathered around the table to pick and choose, and Lu Yang handed a small box to Yuezhao while no one was prepared, and Yuezhao took it with a knowing smile, knowing that it was another gift from the uncle-to-be.Since Yang Shili got engaged, he often sent things by Brother Liu's hand, and the two adults also knew about it and acquiesced, so it's no wonder that these big girls who are close to him are no wonder.

As long as Brother Liu is mentioned, it is inevitable to talk about his travels. It happens that Wu Lin is very familiar with Xihai Yanzi. Hearing the misery of the people in Xihai Yanzi, she said indignantly: "It's really disgusting. I think my father was there at the beginning. It's just like this, but..." It's hard to explain the rest of the words.

Miss Wang's family is the most well-informed, she sneered disdainfully, and continued: "That's not the case, I have no skills but I still want to show off, taking human life as a joke, and I deserve to be caught as a prisoner. It's the most annoying one, I feel that I am a princess and I am superior to others, my eyes only look up but not down, I heard that I went to Xihai Yanzi, wait and see how she does this time?"

These people are not related to the girls of the princes and princes' family. Most of them don't know the little princesses of the prince's family in Nan'an. Only Miss Wang can talk to them because of their family relationship.

Now hearing what she said, she was captured and taken as a prisoner, and everyone looked at her curiously, waiting for her to continue.When Miss Wang saw this, she didn't hide it, and said: "I only heard about this news yesterday, and it is estimated that everyone in Beijing will know about it in two days. At first, it was Wu Lin and her family who guarded the West Sea Coast, and later transferred The prince of Nan'an went there. How could the prince know how to fight? He lost a small defeat in three days and a big defeat in five days. The barbarians caught it."

Wu Lin said angrily: "What an idiot!" The anger in her heart can't be described by these few words, but she can only say these few words. "Idiot!" He repeated again and again.

Miss Song said in a low voice: "Are you okay with what you said? Don't say that you can't say it. It's not good to bring trouble to the family."

Miss Wang shook her head and said: "What's the matter? You think it's still a secret. I heard that in a few days the barbarian will send the credentials. At that time, the whole capital will know. This is what my wife told me, okay? Let me get too close to the girls from those other families, and you are not other people, let alone gossip around, it’s okay to tell you.” Telling them is equivalent to telling their parents, before Miss Wang came I was told by my family to reveal a thing or two, which is just right, and it doesn't seem deliberate.

At this time, the happy atmosphere just now was gone, and everyone knew in their hearts that this defeat was completely avoidable, and it was all due to some people's selfishness that led to this result.Daiyu thought a little deeper, those soldiers who died and the people on the frontier, they didn't die to protect the country as they thought, but they were the victims of political struggle, how innocent they were!At this time, she understood Brother Liu a little bit in her heart, maybe his thoughts were not so heinous.

At this time, on the official road in the suburbs of Beijing, a carriage was rumbling forward, more than twice as fast as before.The person sitting inside was staggered due to the bumps, and the two girls accidentally bumped into a ball.One of them raised his hand and slapped the other, "It's all your disaster. If it weren't for your father, how could you have lost the battle? Since you realized that your home was first broken by the mob, and then your father was captured, now you still have Face to the capital, why don't you die?!"

The little girl who was beaten didn't dare to say a word, she huddled in the corner alone, lowered her head to cover the resentful gaze in her eyes, her tears dripped on the board like broken beads and then fainted.

This is the little Princess and Jinxiu's group in Nan'an Palace.Since Prince Nan'an was captured, the two young masters were escorted back to Beijing by the personal soldiers left behind by the prince.

At the gate of the city, the carriage did not slow down, and it was about to enter the city on a rampage.The guards hurriedly stopped them and asked them to show proof.The little princess stuck out her head angrily and scolded: "Blind your dog eyes, this is the car of Nan'an Palace, I am the little princess of Nan'an Palace, why don't you let it go quickly?!"

The city gate officer nodded and ran over, grinning and apologizing, "Little Princess, please calm down. It's true that the news has been tight recently, and the higher-ups are also strict in investigations. Don't dare to fool the little ones, otherwise the little ones might have to move if they don't keep their jobs." With a wink, ask your subordinates to investigate, and make sure everyone is innocent.

After a while, a small official came to report, "Boss, I have checked everything behind, except for this car."

The little princess was furious when she heard the words, "You are so brave, you dare to check the car that the princess is driving?"

The city gate officer was also unambiguous, saying "offended", he opened the car door, lifted the curtain and looked inside.The soldiers driving the car came over to stop them, and immediately several imperial guards who helped guard the city gate surrounded them.

Seeing another girl huddled in the corner besides the little princess, he asked, "I wonder who this girl is?"

How could the little princess say that this is the newly recognized illegitimate daughter of Prince Nan'an, so she said vaguely: "This is also a girl from our mansion." Pulling down the curtain again, "I have checked, why don't you hurry up and let her go? "

In Beijing, there are people with names and surnames that cannot be messed with. Who are the guards of the city gate? girl?Now that Xihai Yanzi is not stable, the above said that people coming from Xihai Yanzi will be strictly investigated, and the imperial guards are specially sent to guard, no matter how powerful or powerful they are, they will be strictly investigated, and the city gate officials dare not fool them.We all know that the little princess came back from the West Coast, and now he is bringing an unknown girl with him, who knows if she is a spy.

"Little princess, I'm sorry, I have to let you wait." Then he ordered: "You guys watch here, I'll go to the peak to ask for instructions."

"Brothers, look at this..." The city gate officer ran to the head of the Imperial Guard who was drinking tea at the table and asked.

The imperial guards don't wading into this muddy water, their task is to ensure that those who guard the city gate must do their duty, not to guard the city gate on behalf of others, why bother to ask for trouble to offend others. "It's up to you to take care of this matter. If the other party makes a move, we will naturally make a move. If we don't make a move, we can't do it for us."

The city gate officials had no choice but to ask Shangfeng again.Then Shangfeng vaguely heard that something bad happened to Prince Nan'an, so he didn't bother to think about how to save the face of the palace, so he immediately sent someone to Nan'an Palace to ask the princess and concubine if there were any more girls in the palace.

Concubine Nan'an was very angry when she heard about this incident. She didn't like foreign women at first, but now she hates it to the bottom of her heart. She has the same idea as the little princess. How can accidents happen wherever there is such a foreign woman? It's a disaster. star!

But now even if the stomach hurts, the little princess and the maid have to be brought in first. Concubine Nan'an specially sent the big housekeeper to pick them up in person.

The news that the Prince of Nan'an had come back from Xihai Yanzi to recognize a new maid from outside the palace spread all the way from the city gate to the palace, causing a great uproar.Going out of the town to the frontier under the emperor's order, you can even recognize the concubine girl. Are you going to fight or to recognize your relatives?No wonder he failed and was captured. It turned out that all his heart was devoted to finding an illegitimate daughter, and he didn't take the war seriously at all!If you look further, this maid should have been left during the last round of inspection. Is she going to run an errand or find a woman?Properly despise the emperor's order.This is something for later, let's not mention it for the time being.

Today, the little princess lost face because of Jinxiu and became a joke in the capital. She treated each other coldly along the way, and when she got off the bus at Ermen, she pointed at Jinxiu and told the big housekeeper, "Take her to the firewood room. I will ask for instructions." Grandma will talk."

The big butler looked unhappy, and after the little princess left, he put on a gesture of invitation and said to Jinxiu, "Girl, please." The surrounding servants saw nothing but contempt and gloating.

Jinxiu held back her tears and numbly followed the butler towards the woodshed, step by step as if stepping on the tip of a knife.

"Grandmother..." The little princess rushed into the concubine's arms crying when she saw the concubine.

The concubine burst into tears holding her in her arms, "Your father, he... committed a crime!"

Seeing the grandparents and grandchildren like this, no one dared to disturb them, so the housekeeper reported to the princess that the little princess had locked the maid in the woodshed.The princess said indifferently: "It's just a bastard, what's the matter, let the princess be happy."

In the woodshed, Jinxiu was hungry, thirsty and cold, huddled in a corner and trembling, gnashing her teeth, "If one day... if one day the phoenix flies in the sky, I will make you die without a place to bury you." ! '

On the second day, Concubine Tai called someone to bring Jinxiu to her.

"I don't care which building your mother came from or how she hooked up with my son. Since my son recognizes you, I will also admit that you are from my Nan'an Palace, but you have to remember clearly, you You're just a bastard, don't try to stand shoulder to shoulder with my decent granddaughter, it's your luck that the palace gives you a bowl of food."

Jinxiu lowered her eyebrows and said softly, "Yes, Jinxiu must abide by the rules."
