The Founding of the Red Chamber

Chapter 105 The Oriole Part 1

Lin Jing has always been a person who does not believe in ghosts and gods, but he is also quite aware of the various uses of ghosts and gods in the world, for example, the famous scourge of witchcraft, because of which the prince was abolished in Han Dynasty.Of course, even nowadays people often use the names of ghosts and gods when they do things. For example, the first sentence of the official imperial decree is, "Following the heavens, the fate of heaven is related to ghosts and gods."Even the emperor often calls himself the son of heaven, not a mortal, but the son of the emperor of heaven, the womb of the gods, the king of ninety-five years, the king of men and the landlord of land.

Lin Jing believed that now that the Rong family wanted to lead Emperor Zhaode's illness to the theory of ghosts and gods, then the Rong family would have a good reason to ask Emperor Zhaode to appoint a queen.The folks also have this kind of custom of celebrating happiness. If you fail to become a person, if you rush, your luck may change and your illness will be cured.Although this kind of implication would be a bit unlucky, after all, there are few taboos among the people, and it is different in the palace. Everyone in the palace is not cautious in their words and deeds.Come to think of it, the Rong family also has a way to do things well and properly.

However, if the Rong family really wanted to rely on the will of the gods, as long as they dared to let Da Xian'er into the palace, Lin Jing felt that if they didn't give the Rong family a name of witchcraft, they would really feel sorry for the Rong family who took the initiative to hand it over.

Lin Jing took the initiative to gradually get close to Mr. Zhen Jia, and when the relationship between the two got closer, Lin Jing also privately said to Mr Zhen, "If it was a few years ago, I would never have imagined that the two of us would have such a friendship. "

Zhen Dalang said, "Ah Jing, you are the son of the Hou family. I was in office with my father a few years ago, so naturally I can't recognize you."

"That's not the case." Lin Jing said, "To tell you the truth, I didn't like Miss Zhen very much when I was in the palace. At that time, the role of the lady was still a noble concubine. You also know about my family and the Rong family. The Rong family has always been ruthless, I don't like the Rong family, and at that time, Lady Zhen and Concubine Rong got close, so I didn't like her."

It was the first time that Zhen Dalang heard someone dislike his sister in front of his size. This made Zhen Dalang, who was used to praising his sister, a little uncomfortable. However, in this discomfort, Zhen Dalang felt that Lin What Jing said was the truth.People like Lin Jing can talk frankly, and Zhen Dalang feels some surprise and joy in his heart. The surprise is that he didn't expect to have a good relationship with Lin Jing so soon, and the joy is also caused by this.Zhen Dalang is also an astute person, what's more, the family has indeed vetoed the elder sister's previous political decisions, even his father Zhen Xianzhen Youdao also mentioned in a veiled way that when the elder sister was in the position of imperial concubine, it was a good situation. Because of the Rong family, the position of eldest sister and concubine was taken away overnight, if she hadn't been in the Mercy Palace for a few years, she might not be where she is today.Therefore, Zhen Dalang said very sincerely, "Isn't it because my sister's soft heart was deceived by others, and my mother entered the palace to greet her, and my sister would cry every time she mentioned the first queen mother. Keep it safe, I don't know what to do, now that the Empress Dowager is gone, I will know how difficult life in the palace is. The Royal Concubine Rong has always been domineering, and my elder sister is even more in the way of the Imperial Concubine's eyes because she is favored by His Majesty." Said, Zhen Dalang sighed quietly, sincerely worried about his sister's safety in the palace.If the Rong family is really pleased, one can imagine what will happen to concubines like the Rou concubine Zhen who are deeply favored by Emperor Zhaode.When introducing, let alone the Zhen family, it is the Zhen family, I am afraid that they will not be able to please.

It was precisely because of this that the Zhen family was so active in contacting the families that were at odds with the Rong family, in order to find an opportunity to help their sister.Even though the Lin family is not as good as it was back then, it is still much better than the Zhen family.

Hearing what Zhen Dalang said, Lin Jing said, "What are you afraid of? Lady Zhen just wants to be favored and makes Concubine Rong jealous. Rong Si is dead in my hands. The Rong family wished they could kill me to avenge their blood hatred. I am not afraid His family, that old man from the Rong family hasn't been buried yet, so I'm not finished with his family!"

It was the first time for Zhen Dalang to hear Lin Jing talk about the Rong family. Lin Jing only spoke lightly, but for some reason, Zhen Dalang still couldn't help but shudder when he heard it.Seeing this opportunity, Zhen Dalang refused to let it go, he immediately said, "If you want to save face, you should have gone to the Mausoleum of the First Empress Dowager to thank you by suicide, but you just don't want to die."

Lin Jing smiled coldly, and turned to say, "Brother Dalang, talking about that old guy has spoiled your interest. It's rare for you to come to my house and say something happy."

Lin Jing refused to talk about the Rong family anymore, and after waiting for Zhen Dalang for two days, Fang privately told Zhen Dalang that the Rong family wanted to use the fairy tales to persuade His Majesty to establish a crown prince early.Yes, the latest news is that the Rong family has already planned to temporarily release the position of queen, and settle the position of prince first. After all, if there is a prince, are you afraid that there will be no queen?

Zhen Dalang turned pale when he heard this letter, looked at Lin Jing, Lin Jing said, "I haven't entered the palace in these years, and I only got this news until now."

Zhen Dalang hurried home to discuss his sister's affairs. Once the Rong family really supported the second prince to win the crown prince, he might lose the Zhen family's place in the palace in the future.Speaking of which, the ambitions of the Zhen family are not very great. As the father of the concubine Zhen, Mr. Zhen Xianzhen, his dream has always been to have a grandson of the vassal king and he would be very satisfied.However, the Zhen family has some tricks to get favored. If they meet a more lenient queen or first-class imperial concubine, the Zhen family and the fourth prince are always safe and there is no problem at all.Even the Zhen family, because of the Zhen family and the prince's grandson, can continue to improve their family status steadily in the officialdom.

Unexpectedly, the luck of the Zhen family is so bad, what the Zhen family met was the Royal Concubine Ronghuang.

Concubine Rong Huanggui is not a generous person.

Although the Zhen family really wanted the Lin family to help, and Lin Jing also wanted to see the excitement of the witchcraft disaster, but the Lin family would never be involved in the affairs of the palace.Therefore, Lin Jing tactfully changed the topic when the Zhen family tried several times, and did not give the Zhen family a chance to speak at all.

Zhen Dalang couldn't help feeling, "Lin Jing is really slippery."

Zhen Xian said, "What do you mean by the Xie family?"

Because Lin Jing really didn't want to go into this muddy water, Zhen Dalang and Xie Changyun also had friendship, Zhen Dalang said, "Compared with Lin Jing, Xie Changyun is much more sincere."

The corners of Zhen Xian's lips curled up slightly, and he said, "It's no wonder that the Xie family is more prosperous than the Lin family. Since the Queen Mother Lin left, the Lin family has become worse than before, and it's no wonder they are so cautious."

Here, the Zhen family and his son discussed the current status of the Xie Lin family, but they did not expect that this time, the Rong family invited the great immortal into the palace to pray for His Majesty's fortune and fortune-telling, but it caused a huge event. The Zhen family lost power at the same time, and Concubine Li, the only one who was able to recite the Buddha's name at ease in the harem, began to establish a school of her own in the harem by relying on the third prince.

As Lin Jing expected, although the Rong family's move was to borrow the power of the gods, it was hard to say anything about ghosts and gods.Seeing this opportunity, the Zhen family would not just sit back and watch the Rong family be proud. The Zhen family has always been favored, so it is not difficult to use some witchcraft methods in the palace.Unexpectedly, the immortal invited by the Rong family should have done so and then invited out a portrait of the father and son of the jade man and immortal.In the end, the portrait was invited out, but it was not a portrait of a father and son, but a picture of falling into Avici Hell forever. Moreover, the person who fell into Avici Hell was none other than the man in the dragon robe. The reason why Emperor Zhaode The reason why he sat at the meeting number was because the date of birth written on this man belonged to Emperor Zhaode.Emperor Zhaode's condition became worse and worse, and he fainted immediately when he saw this.Immediately after waking up, he sent the immortal to the prison. As for introducing the immortal to Emperor Zhaode, the Rong family, who had praised him as a flower at first, was even more unfavorable.Emperor Zhaode directly grounded Concubine Ronghuang, and the second prince sent her to Concubine Kong.

As soon as Concubine Rong lost her position, it was logical that Zhen Roupin would come forward, but Emperor Zhaode was not a fool, even if the Rong family had the heart and guts, they shouldn't have recommended a witch and Taoist at this time, but recommended him to him.Emperor Zhaode needed to investigate carefully, and in the end, the Zhen family was found.

The Zhen family naturally wanted to argue, but with the Zhen family's eloquent tongue, it was a win-win situation for both sides.

Lin Jing sighed, "As expected of Mr. Xie, this move is so vicious."

"The Xie family wanted to raise Concubine Li and the third prince, but it was not so easy." Shu Jingyun gave Lin Yi a more vicious idea, and asked Lin Yi to write a letter, asking Concubine Kong to be the queen!

The Lin family did not have any friendship with Concubine Li, if the Xie family got their way, the Lin family would be marginalized in the future.At this time in the palace, although Concubine Li has a prince, she is only a concubine, while Concubine Kong Gui is a serious concubine, it is rare that Concubine Kong Guifei has no children, please make Concubine Kong Guifei, she is not a crown prince, so there is no taboo.Furthermore, Concubine Kong Guifei has always had a virtuous name, and for the two fallen Rong Zhen, if they must be named queens, naturally the childless Concubine Kong Guifei would be more suitable.Otherwise, if Concubine Li was in power, Concubine Li used to be honest, but in reality, who knows?

The Xie family was really surprised that the Lin family carried Concubine Kong Gui out to disturb the winter water in the imperial capital!
