The eldest son of the red mansion

Aunt Zhou hadn't spoken yet, but Xia Mai, who was standing beside her, gasped, "What else could it be? Madam called Auntie into the room just now, and taught her a good lesson, so that others can see the joke."

After Qin Keqing heard this, she also felt a little annoyed. This Mrs. Wang is too ignorant of flattery. Her glory is all thanks to Jia Ke. Now she treats Jia Ke's biological mother so contemptuously. Let Jia Ke know. And her good.

Chapter 624

Although Qin Keqing was angry, she couldn't add fuel to the flames now, so she smiled and patted Aunt Qingzhou's hand, and said, "Don't be sad, Auntie, our uncle has already thought about this."

After Qin Keqing finished speaking, she extended her hand to Rui Zhu who was beside her.

Ruizhu immediately sent the imperial decree held in her arms to Qin Keqing's hands.

Qin Keqing held the imperial decree in her hand, and said to Aunt Zhou: "Auntie, what do you think this is?"

Aunt Zhou reluctantly raised her head to see that Qin Keqing was holding a bright yellow scroll in her hand.

Although Aunt Zhou had never seen the imperial decree, she knew that it was probably an imperial decree.

"Could it be the emperor's imperial decree?"

"Auntie is still very clear, this is exactly the imperial decree."

Aunt Zhou's eyes lit up when she heard this, and the other people in the room were not fools, they didn't understand Qin Keqing's words.

And Xia Mai who was standing next to her was even more overjoyed, and quickly asked Qin Keqing, "Grandma, do we need to prepare the incense case? I heard that we have to prepare these when receiving orders."

Qin Keqing shook her head with a smile and said, "That's someone else's house, our family doesn't need these now."

After Qin Keqing finished speaking, she opened the imperial decree for Aunt Zhou to watch.

It is said that Aunt Zhou was also born in a poor family, that is, she only knew a few words after she married Jia Zheng, but she also couldn't understand the imperial decree.

Qin Keqing looked at Aunt Zhou's confused face, and hurriedly explained to her: "Auntie, the imperial decree says that you have raised a good son, and that you are a pillar of strength for the court, so you are named Mrs. Qin."

Aunt Zhou was also full of surprises when she heard that, the sorrow just now was gone.

And Xia Mai, who was standing by the side, was also smiling, "Grandma, is our aunt's official son as big as my wife's?"

After hearing this, Aunt Zhou quickly scolded her and said, "Don't talk nonsense, how can I compare to Madam."

Qin Keqing listened to the conversation between the two of them, and explained with a smile: "Auntie's rank is higher than that of Madam, and she is already on an equal footing with our master, but counting, your status is still one level worse than the master, and you can only compete with my master." Madame Pingqi."

After hearing this, Aunt Zhou smiled brightly, "I don't dare to stand side by side with the master, it's a great fortune for me to be behind the madam."

In less than a day or two, the news that Aunt Zhou was named Mrs. Qin spread throughout the Jia family.

This time people are extremely envious, the title of Madam Qin is already the top among women, apart from those in the palace and the old lady in the mansion, Aunt Zhou is the most honorable.

After Mrs. Wang got the news, she stayed alone in the Buddhist hall for an afternoon, and when she came out of the Buddhist hall, she seemed to be fine.

But the maid beside Mrs. Wang could see the gloom on his face.

In the end, before Mrs. Wang could recover, Jia Zheng began to send out invitations to his close friends and old relatives, asking to help Aunt Zhou to be his equal wife.

When Mrs. Wang heard the news, she was very angry and couldn't bear it anymore. She ran to Jia Zheng's small study alone and had a big fight with Jia Zheng.

Because if it's other things, Mrs. Wang can still endure, but if she has to endure Aunt Zhou as an equal wife, she will have no status in the Rongguo Mansion from now on.

But no matter how much Mrs. Wang makes trouble, the established strategy of Jia's mansion will not change. On a fairly auspicious day a few days later, the Rongxi Hall in Rongguo Mansion will hold a big banquet, as if the emperor's funeral and theirs It doesn't matter at all.

In front of all relatives and old friends, Jia Zheng publicly announced Aunt Fu Zhou as his equal wife, and asked Aunt Zhou to come out to meet everyone.

At this moment, everyone understood what it means that a mother is more expensive than a child. They thought that Aunt Zhou was just a family who gave birth to a son. She gave birth to a good son, and she became a successful person. Now she is named Mrs. Qin, and she even suppressed Mrs. Zhengyin, Mrs. Wang. one head.

In the following days, white cloths were spread all over the capital, wearing mourning for the Emperor Daxing, and the monks and Taoist priests in various Taoist temples in the capital were unlucky again.

In less than a year, the two supreme beings passed away, and they began to ring the bell for the Great Qin Emperor again. Ringing the bell is not a leisurely thing, it takes about [-] rings, and no one can lift their arms after knocking on this day.

However, these things in the capital did not affect Jia's mansion. Now the three mansions on Ningrong Street not only did not hang filial piety, but even hung red lanterns on both sides to celebrate their masters.

That is to say, Jia Ke's mansion has not been repaired yet, so it looks a bit deserted, but Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion are full of laughter, and Jia Zhen of Ningguo Mansion even invited a troupe to sing a big play for three days.

Leaving aside these matters for the time being, besides, Jia Ke did not continue to stop the coffin as usual after handling the funeral of Emperor Daxing, but directly ordered the people in the Ministry of Rites to send the emperor's body to the mausoleum.

Jia Ke notified Jia Yuanchun about this matter, whether to seal the entrance to Emperor Daxing's mausoleum, after all, this is related to Jia Yuanchun's burial after his death.

There is also the issue of the former empress. After the empress was bestowed to death by Jia Yuanchun, she was sent to the mausoleum by the emperor. Now that the emperor has passed away, he naturally can't care about these things. If Jia Yuanchun is willing, he can still move the empress out. The imperial mausoleum is buried elsewhere.

Jia Yuanchun also thought about this matter for a few days, but he didn't think of a reason. Finally, after much deliberation, he decided to invite her mother to the palace to have a discussion before making a decision.

This Mrs. Wang has been in a panic these days. She is now the Duke's wife. Although Aunt Zhou also named Mrs. Qin, which made her a little annoyed, she didn't dare to offend Jia Ke, so she could only endure it. It came down, but Aunt Zhou did not give Mrs. Wang any bad looks in front of her. She still focused on Mrs. Wang, which made Mrs. Wang feel better.

Mrs. Wang did not dare to be negligent when she received a letter from her daughter a few days ago, so after asking Mother Jia for leave, she drove into the palace with her car.

Now Mrs. Wang's entry into the palace is different from before. Before entering the palace, Mrs. Wang had to get the approval of several subordinates, the queen mother, and then the queen had to approve it, and finally she could enter the palace according to the time.

But now, as long as Jia Yuanchun said a word, as long as Jia Ke didn't object, it would be unimpeded.

When Mrs. Wang arrived at the Palace of Compassion and Peace, Jia Yuanchun was already waiting at the gate of the palace. Although Jia Yuanchun did not need to do this according to etiquette, Jia Yuanchun still had his mother in his heart, so he waited at the gate of the palace in advance. .

As soon as Mrs. Wang saw Jia Yuanchun waiting there, she immediately came to Jia Yuanchun's side in three steps at a time, grabbed her hand and said, "Come out to pick me up regardless of your identity, and let others hear it and ask for it." gossip."

Since Jia Yuanchun became the empress dowager, she was almost the most honored in the harem, and she was not as depressed as when the emperor was there.

I saw her holding Madam Wang's hand, smiling and coquettishly saying: "Why, I haven't seen my mother for so many days, and my daughter came out to pick it up, who can talk?"

So the mother and daughter entered the Compassionate Ning Palace hand in hand, and then sat down in the Xiangyang living room of the Compassionate Ning Palace.

Then the maids brought tea and snacks, and Jia Yuanchun asked the maids and eunuchs to retreat.

"Mother, elder brother came to discuss with me a few days ago whether the emperor's mausoleum should be sealed now. I'm a little undecided, so I asked my mother to give me some ideas."

After Madam Wang heard this, her eyes began to turn. If the emperor's mausoleum was sealed, Jia Yuanchun would not be able to live in the same cave with the emperor in the future.

But after their Jia family did such a thing, Jia Yuanchun went underground, how could he meet the emperors of this dynasty?

Moreover, if Jia Ke plans to usurp the throne, Jia Yuanchun's position will be even more embarrassing. It is better to seal the mausoleum now. Whether Jia Yuanchun sets up another mausoleum or belongs to their Jia family's ancestral tomb , can have a way out.

After Mrs. Wang figured it out, she told Jia Yuanchun what she meant. Jia Yuanchun lowered his head and thought for a while, thinking about the scene of meeting the emperor underground in the future, he thought it would be better to set up a mausoleum.

So Jia Yuanchun made up his mind not to be buried with the emperor.

"Mother, my daughter is not hiding it from you. The former empress was gifted to death by her daughter. She was sent to the imperial tomb by the emperor. Are you going to move her out of the imperial tomb now and find another auspicious place to bury her?"

As soon as Madam Wang heard this, she patted her daughter, and then said bitterly, "What good will it do you for you to do this? Isn't this a source of resentment? I just look at it and let it go."

After hearing this, Jia Yuanchun remained silent, a little reluctant.After all, I can't have the same acupuncture points with my husband, but other women can be by his side. Although it is said that Jia Yuanchun and the emperor don't have a deep relationship, it would be a lie to say that there is no jealousy.

Mrs. Wang could only sigh helplessly, but with the current status of their family, others would not shed a hair even if they said a few words, so they no longer cared about Jia Yuanchun.
