Detective in the Red Chamber
Page 571
The tall and thin woman was not discouraged, she leaned forward again, and said in a low voice, "That's all right, but she's always asking for news about Jingren Palace—I'm afraid it's a master who's 'revenge'."
The young woman still just let out a 'hmm'.
"If she really turns over..."
The tall and thin woman smacked her lips and lowered her voice again, "Do you want to pinch the root of this trouble?"
As he spoke, he wiped his thin neck with his horizontal hand.
The young woman fell silent, and sighed leisurely for a while, "Amitabha."
The tall and thin woman immediately straightened her body, her eyes were full of sternness.
When Concubine Rong was first sent to An Le Tang, because of her noble status and being the emperor's favorite concubine, no one could guarantee that she would have a chance to turn around, so she was treated very favorably by these prison tyrants.
But after the second prince was born, the theory of Yi Chu became more and more popular day by day, and even the women who were imprisoned here believed that today's concubine De must be the future concubine.
As a result, his attitude towards Concubine Rong went from bad to worse.
A few days ago, the tall and thin woman even found an excuse to humiliate her severely.
But who would have thought that the situation would change suddenly, the second prince would die of illness suddenly, and even the concubine would die because of this.
It is rumored that this concubine Rong had an old relationship with the crown prince, if the crown prince ascends the throne in the future...
It's no wonder that the thin and tall woman couldn't help but want to kill her first!
But said that the young woman was still paying respects to the Buddha, the tall and thin woman retreated quietly outside the door, called some of her subordinates to the front, and just mentioned a few words, suddenly heard the sound of iron chains rattling outside the door.
"Hey, there are quite a few chicks here today!"
The tall and thin woman pursed her lips and smiled, and was about to take people into hiding in the house, so as to repeat the scene just now, but she never thought that a few eunuchs would rush in with open fire.
"Where is Concubine Rong? Please Concubine Rong come out to receive the order!"
The tall and thin woman's heart was beating wildly, and she looked at the eunuch in fear, until the men beside her reminded her, then she hastily knelt down on the ground.
Not long after, Concubine Rong also came out after hearing the news, and bowed down in front of the eunuch who delivered the decree.
"Your Majesty told Concubine De to be sick from worry, Jingren Palace should not be left without a master for a day, and specially ordered Concubine Rong to re-enter Jingren Palace to temporarily take the post of Concubine De."
After the oral order was announced, the eunuch who passed the decree immediately softened his back, and slavishly prostrated himself on the ground with a smile and said, "Ma'am, it's not too late, let's leave now?"
"Ha...ha...hahahaha..."
What responded to him was Concubine Rong laughing from low to high, from existence to non-existence, and finally almost maniacally!
Amidst the laughter, the tall and thin woman felt a chill on her back, crawling up her spine and neck.
Then that cold neck suddenly tightened again!
But he was pinched by the neck and slammed down on the bluestone board!
boom!
Severe pain, dizziness...
The tall and thin woman, whose face was covered with blood, suddenly had a thought in her mind that Concubine Rong is actually a master who can't live without hatred!
While in a trance, someone grabbed the back of her clothes and dragged her forward like a dead dog for a dozen steps before being thrown heavily to the ground.
"Congratulations, empress, congratulations, empress!"
Then a familiar voice came into the ears of the tall and thin woman.
She turned her head in astonishment, and saw the young woman who was worshiping the Buddha in the house just now, and now she was humbly kneeling in front of Concubine Rong—the one who attacked the tall and thin woman just now was obviously also her!
Is this to use yourself as a scapegoat? !
Resentment and grief flashed in the tall and thin woman's eyes, and she was about to shout out the conspiracy just now, but when the words came to her lips, she suddenly froze again.
because……
Just now, the young woman only said "Amitabha" from the beginning to the end!
It turned out that she had already...
At this moment, Concubine Rong finally stopped her wild laughter, she folded her sleeves coldly and beautifully like peaches and plums, and asked the young woman indifferently, "What do you mean?"
The young woman put her head on the ground and said respectfully, "This lowly servant girl once offended the empress, so she should be severely punished."
"how?"
Concubine Rong's expression became even colder, "Concubine Jing, do you think you can get yourself out by doing this?"
"Don't dare."
Concubine Jing still respectfully said, "Your maidservant has no other specialties, except that she has some experience in training criminal women. If the empress can use it, the slaveservant is willing to be an ox or a horse by the empress's side to pay for her sins."
Concubine Rong's face finally changed color, she looked at her steadily, and after a while she smiled, "Okay, okay, okay, no wonder you can dominate here-it's just this little bug, I'm afraid it's still there." It’s not worth a nomination.”
Concubine Jing prostrated herself on the ground, "Your Majesty, don't worry, during the day, the slaves will tell you to keep quiet here."
"Ha...hahahaha..."
Concubine Rong couldn't help laughing and trembled, her heart was full, but she had already flown to Jingren Palace...
Chapter 967
[The last chapter is definitely not water, but a necessary turning point and foreshadowing]
The news that Concubine Rong was in charge of Jingren Palace spread throughout the capital in a very short period of time.
Those who are ignorant and still don't understand the true meaning of it, but the papers on Yushitai's impeachment of the Jia family have already piled up as high as half a person.
If the premature death of the second prince was a heavy hammer that broke the back of Rongguo Mansion, then in the eyes of people of insight, Concubine Rong was in charge of Jingren Palace, which officially sounded the death knell of Rongguo Mansion's decline.
Because this means that the emperor has already blamed Jia Yuanchun for the death of his biological mother!
Therefore, from this day onwards, Rongguo Mansion has gradually restored its "magnificent scene" of being a bustling city, but this time the people who visited the door were not flattering people, but cold-eyed creditors.
At the beginning, it was just people with identities and backgrounds visiting to collect debts. Gradually, even Shengdou's common people lost their awe, and the Rongguo Mansion was completely blocked.
On the seventh day of September, even the second master Jia Zheng's carriage was almost seized by the mob.
For a while, there was turmoil in the mansion, and everyone was in danger.
Ninety-nine Double Ninth Festival.
The pattering autumn rain soaked everything.
But for the creditors guarding outside the gate of Rongguo Mansion, it was nothing more than adding fuel to the fire.
On the Double Ninth Festival, the day of family reunion, they had to face the wind and rain in front of this door for the livelihood of the whole family...
bang~
There was a sudden muffled sound that attracted everyone's attention, but it turned out that it was Zhao Erkui from the lumber trade. Because his legs were numb after squatting for a long time, he accidentally staggered when he got up, and his shoulder happened to be against the door.
Facing everyone's gazes, Zhao Erkui immediately blushed, eagerly wanting to explain a few words, but suddenly there was an evil fire rushing upwards, he gritted his teeth fiercely, turned around and kicked on the vermilion lacquered gate .
"Damn it! My fathers are exposed to the cold outside, but the debtors eat and drink fish and meat inside. Is there any reason for this?!"
Everything is afraid of a leader.
His kick immediately aroused the excitement of the crowd, more than [-] people exploded like a pot, smashing the door, kicking the door, calling the door, begging, mocking, cursing...
In an instant, the front of Rongguo Mansion was noisier than Caishikou.
It took a cup of tea to make such a fuss before finally there was a response from inside.
"What are you arguing about? What kind of place is this?! In a hurry, our master handed over a piece of paper and sent you, Quan Te Niang, to Shuntian Mansion to be imprisoned!"
There was a sudden silence outside the door, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, without saying a word for a long time.
The Rongguo Mansion was down and out, and it was even rumored that it had committed the Emperor's jealousy.
But the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention, but Yin Jiayu Village of Shuntian Prefecture, which is of the same clan as Rongguo Mansion, is not something these people outside the door dare to offend.
"Son, I'm sorry for you!"
After a long time, there was a sudden wail from the crowd, and a middle-aged man in his early forties squatted down slowly against the wall, gathered his gray sleeves, and sobbed like a plague chicken.
When everyone saw this, they felt sorry for each other and sighed for a while.
At this moment, a rush of hoofbeats suddenly came from far to near.
The creditors looked around, but a few servants came galloping on horseback.
Immediately afterward, someone recognized that these people were the servants of the Shuntian Mansion, causing panic among the people.
Just when some of them started to back off, those government servants rushed to their horses, got off their horses neatly, and moved forward with their sabers.
All the creditors hurriedly backed away, but the yamen servants ignored them and went to the door, knocking on the vermilion lacquered door with a loud ringing sound.
"Open the door, open the door quickly, we belong to Shuntian Prefecture!"
This time there was no delay inside, after confirming the identity of the visitor through the crack of the door, a gap was opened between the vermilion lacquer gate and the door.
"Everyone, did Master Xinglong Street send you here?"
"What Xinglong Street is not Xinglong Street!"
Who would have thought that those yamen servants who were always flattering, but their noses were not their noses, and their eyes were not their eyes? They shouted: "Where is the elder of your family? His case has been revealed, and my grand lord asked him to come over and decide right from wrong!"
The concierge of Jia's mansion was taken aback when he heard the words, almost thinking that he had heard it wrong, and after a while he stumbled back and asked, "What... what case?"
"What other case could it be? The case of the stone nerd!"
"what?!"
The concierge was even more dumbfounded, and blurted out: "That's not Mr. Fu Yin and our master together..."
slap~
The leading yamen servant slapped the hilt of the knife on his belt, and asked sullenly, "What do you mean? Do you still want to bite my grand lord?!"
The concierge who choked on a word was speechless.
The creditors next to him also recalled it at this time, so they clamored for Jia Amnesty to come out and file a lawsuit.
Those who are impatient, simply push and squeeze in.
The concierge stopped this one, but couldn't stop that one, and finally hopped his feet anxiously.
Fortunately, those who rushed in did not dare to rush into the Rongguo Mansion, they just stood in the courtyard and shouted.
…………
Xiyun Pavilion.
Sister Shan picked up the curtain and went into the back room. Seeing Wang Xifeng cross-legged, teasing her son on the Arhat bed, she took a few steps forward and reported in a low voice, "Grandma, some messengers from Shuntian Mansion said it was for Shi For the idiot's case, the Elder Master should be invited back for interrogation."
"Humph."
Wang Xifeng snorted, wrapped the sturdy boy into his arms, and teased him with a piece of caramel.
Sister Shan looked at her face, and continued to report: "Those debt collectors also took the opportunity to barge in, and they are making noise in the front yard right now."
"Just make a fuss."
Wang Xifeng sneered disapprovingly: "Hasn't there been several troubles before?"
"But this time it's those mud legs..."
"All right."
Before Sister Shan could finish speaking, Wang Xifeng waved her hand: "The sky is falling and there is a tall one holding it up, why are you so anxious? Go down."
Only then did Sister Shan stop talking, and she agreed with some reluctance, and walked outside in three steps.
"Humph."
It was only after she left that Wang Xifeng cast his gaze over there, his apricot-core triangular eyes were full of evil spirit.
These little hooves have become more and more out of shape recently, and after this period of time, it is necessary to set up rules!
Unlike the people in the mansion who were panicked, Wang Xifeng, who had just obtained a 'reassurance pill' from the Sun's mansion a few days ago, was obviously much calmer.
Thinking of the "heart-to-heart" exchange on the sister-in-law's bed that night, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but blushed and spat secretly.
Unknowingly keeping her legs together, she suddenly saw Sister Shan going back and forth in a panic, as soon as she entered the door, she shouted at the top of her voice: "Grandma, it's a disaster, it's a disaster!"
"So what?"
Wang Xifeng glanced at her angrily: "Look at you so frightened."
