The Promotion of Yuanchun in the Red Chamber

The Ning Mansion always likes to burn hot stoves, but they always burn them wrong... In fact, they are not afraid of burning them wrong, but they are afraid that they will end up in the dark by going the wrong way.

Besides, Brother Zhen's conduct and integrity, Yuan Chun is not ignorant of everything while trapped in the palace.So she couldn't get close to Big Brother Zhen in this life, although Jia Zhen treated her more honestly than Jia Lian.

Just relying on my sister-in-law to pass on the word, some things can't be explained clearly.

Yuan Chun really wanted to meet her brother Jia Zhu, so she asked her sister-in-law Li Wan, "What is brother doing at home?"

Li Wan replied: "When you are free, teach your younger brothers and sisters to read at home."

In her heart, the uncle must be planning to teach his son Jia Lan himself, and Baoyu Jiahuan and other younger brothers are just passing along. Of course, you can't say this in front of your sister-in-law. "The younger brothers have made a lot of progress, especially Baoyu. I also asked about you."

It's better to have an elder brother to teach than to let Baoyu get stuck in the powder pile and can't get out.

Yuan Chun said: "I believe in my brother." There is an elder brother, Jia Zhu, who supports the second room of the Rongfu. Neither the grandmother nor the mother dotes on Baoyu as much as in the previous life, and regards this child as their life. Tight."

Marrying into an ordinary family, going back to her natal family is not as difficult as marrying into a prince's mansion. Thinking of this, Yuan Chun feels somewhat sad.

Li Wan looked at the face of the sister-in-law, and guessed that she was homesick... Thinking about the sister-in-law who gave birth to a son and became a concubine, she was also very respectable in front of the prince, and she was more able to support the family. Li Wan suddenly sighed.

Yuan Chun really missed her grandmother and elder brother: At the beginning, when her mother and Lian's second sister-in-law were humiliated because of lending money, Yuan Chun had the intention of contributing to the flames. She believed that this matter could not be hidden from her grandmother and elder brother, but her grandmother and elder brother followed her mind.

In other words, the chief house and the second house are still a family, but the money is no longer mixed together. Mrs. Xing is secretly overjoyed to control the financial power of the house house; In her own life, the long house will also be able to get less of the glory of her children in the future.Mrs. Wang consciously let go of a burden, and also felt quite comfortable.

In short, the two wives made everyone happy, which made Yuanchun unexpected.Thinking of this, she wanted to meet and talk to her brother even more.

Yuan Chun was about to ask his brother to go over the house for a while, but Jianer woke up from sleep and started "Wow wow wow" again...

Sitting in the west room, the sister-in-law and sister-in-law could hear the movement of Jianer in the East Nuan Pavilion—this child has a very different personality from his father, he is a gossip, his voice is amazing, and he doesn't recognize him at all. .

The chubby athlete came in unsteadily, followed by the nurse and girl who bent over, carefully guarding against the young master's fall.

He saluted crookedly first, then threw himself on Yuan Chun's lap with a smile, "Mother."

Yuan Chun rubbed his son's little head, pointed to his sister-in-law and introduced to his son, "Auntie."

Jian'er looked at Li Wan curiously, and said word by word, "Aunt...Mother..." After finishing speaking, he made a respectable bow.

Seeing that Li Wan's appearance had grown, he looked like both a prince and Yuan Chun's little nephew, but another concern arose: I don't know if my aunt plans to marry her natal family again?Her youngest daughter is only one year older than Jian Geer.

Yuan Chun didn't know what his sister-in-law was thinking, pinched Jian'er's little face, and said softly, "If brother is free, come to the palace to sit for a while. Brother Rong will definitely come when he returns to Beijing. If you don't have a real brother, you will be born." Divide up."

This made Li Wan restrain his smile, "You are right."

In fact, she didn't know what her uncle was thinking.It's okay for a scholar to be aloof, but to pay back his aloofness to the prince is a little ignorant.

Li Wan thought about persuading the uncle after returning home, but she still had something to tell her sister-in-law, "Master Xue's family wants to come to see you."

Doing business in the capital city without a strong backer, let alone making money, it is very difficult to gain a foothold.

Mr. Xue thinks he has found a good wife, and even the Xue family is close enough to the Jia and Wang families: his brother-in-law Wang Ziteng has good skills and a good future, but he has a big appetite.Jia Zhu from the Rong Mansion was less than thirty, so he ordered Hanlin. His future would only be better than that of Wang Ziteng, and this person is a scholar after all. His younger sister is still the seventh prince's side concubine, if he is used to take refuge in the seventh prince... Mr. Xue's heart will naturally be biased towards the second room of Rongfu.

How could the master of the Xue family hide his thoughts from others, Yuan Chun said with a smile, "Uncle has a lot of ambition."

Li Wan was even more down-to-earth, "Who said it wasn't? The money was too generous, and my wife took a lot of it along the way, so that our uncle had to let me come over to deliver the message."

Yuan Chun smiled and said nothing: Mother is filial to others, and doing things for others is much better than going out and lending money in a daze.

Jian Er suddenly said, "Short hand!"

Li Wan also laughed, "Brother Jian is really smart."

Yuan Chun pinched his son's little ears, "It's all taught by the prince and the uncle."

But Zhao Zhizhen, Zhao Han and his son are all in the study at this time.

Zhao Zhizhen was sitting in the study with a military book in his hand, wandering into the sky: He was also thinking, was he too well-behaved and gentle from the beginning to the end, so that everyone thought he had no ambitions?But... how would he change it?Stretch out your hand to Wenchen, can the father agree?

But even if he had something on his mind, he wouldn't ignore his son Zhao Han who kept sneaking glances at him while wanting to speak.He waved his hand, "Who bullied you?"

Beheading her stepmother for three years, actually only a little more than two years, and the mourning period is about to expire.Zhao Han sighed, "It's not that someone... wants to recommend a daughter-in-law for you."

Zhao Han was going to sue, so he couldn't be fooled. He stretched out a finger and swiped lightly in front of his father's eyes...

Zhao Zhizhen understood, "Your third uncle and I have to lose face of the prince, your uncle has a lot of behind-the-scenes fun. This time, maybe I want to give a sweet date." He teased, "Maybe I will really recommend one Good family."

Zhao Han was not good at uttering bad words to his uncle, "Eating in the bowl and thinking about the people in the pot, so don't worry about it."

Zhao Zhizhen smiled, "That's a bit biased. Let's talk about your stepmother. She may not think the same as her natal family. The nine sons of the Dragon have their own preferences, so you have to be careful to distinguish them."

From the looks of it now, the new stepmother is a decent person who intends to lead a good life, but her natal brother has been "eye-catching" with the prince... The stepmother must be worse than the father.Zhao Han responded, "My son knows."

In fact, the father and son are still very envious of the "good popularity" of the prince, but as the saying goes, Xiao He is defeated by Xiao He, and the prince is now dragged down by his "good popularity"... burnt out.

Zhao Zhizhen is even a little gloating: When the prince knows that his brother-in-law, who has always been trusted, has long been used by King Pingnan, how should he feel?

But this is all "someone else's business." When Yuan Chun saw him in the evening, he asked to meet his elder brother Jia Zhu.

Even if it is an aunt, it is not impossible to prevent people from meeting their relatives.Zhao Zhizhen was always reasonable, so he agreed without thinking about it.

The prince was so happy, as expected by Yuan Chun, she hesitated for a moment, and then confessed to Zhao Zhizhen why she wanted her brother to come here—couldn’t it be that Uncle Jia Jing had something to do with the Fifth Prince of the First Emperor back then?

After Zhao Zhizhen listened, he comforted Yuan Chun, "Don't worry. Jia Jing has already resigned from office, and even the title has been passed on to his son. If the father wanted to settle the matter, he wouldn't be allowed to live happily for so many years."

To put it bluntly, why is Jia Jing worthy of His Majesty's constant concern?One must know that the group of snobbish relatives who were favored by the late emperor's concubine back then, the Holy One did not kill them all.

Yuan Chun took Zhao Zhizhen's arm and nodded, "I'm afraid...someone will hold on to this matter, and when the time comes, they will mix up with others and make trouble together."

Zhao Zhizhen frowned slightly, and became curious, "What is 'what's next to'?"

Yuan Chun sighed softly, "It's not that one." As she said that, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the east, "Young Master Fei is hard to please, but I don't think my cousin can please him. "

Hurting others and not benefiting oneself, this kind of thing has been done many times in previous lives.Knowing this earlier, she naturally wanted to "walk a clear path" in front of the prince.

If the royal father really made public what Prince Fei had done, the prince would not only be in danger, but he would definitely lose his prestige.Zhao Zhizhen agreed: "Let's watch the show first."

Anyway, let's see how the prince himself handles it.

Three days later, it was Jia Zhuxiumu who really agreed to visit his sister in the palace.The prince was not in the mansion, so Yuan Chun went to say hello to Princess Han Xu.

Han Xu didn't feel embarrassed at all, but he still held Yuan Chun and asked, "Does the prince know about the marriage of the uncle?"

Yuan Chunxin said: It's not like you don't see the prince at all, so what do you ask me for?Thinking about it this way, he naturally showed some hesitation on his face.

Seeing this, Han Xu hurriedly said, "I'm not afraid of your jokes. If I ask directly, the prince and uncle will probably think too much."

This princess is more sensible than the previous princess, at least until the princess gives birth to a son and the son grows up, they will live in peace with her.

Yuan Chun explained carefully in a low voice: "The uncle's biological mother passed away early, and he was raised by the prince himself. After the concubine entered the house because of negligence, the uncle fell ill. Since then, the prince has loved the uncle even more."

Han Xu naturally heard the implication, "It's true." She thanked her and let Yuan Chun go to entertain guests.

However, Yuan Chun and his brother hadn't seen each other for several years, this time as soon as his brother came in, Yuan Chun couldn't wait to say, "My brother is fat." At this point, his throat was blocked, his eyes were sore, and he almost shed tears.

Jia Zhu hurriedly said: "I'm in good health." Although his face was smiling, his eyes were also slightly red.

Yuan Chun bowed his head and said, "You don't come to see me either."

Jia Zhu smiled helplessly and said, "Isn't it because you're afraid that the rules in the palace are too strict? Brother, why don't you write letters to you? Doesn't your sister-in-law come over every ten and a half months?"

Yuan Chun wiped his eyes with a handkerchief, and still refused to let go, "Really?"

Rather than saying "the prince's mansion is well-regulated"...it might be better to say "I don't know what the prince thinks".

In fact, Jia Zhu is not a pedantic, hypocritical person. His younger sister has already married, and he has benefited from the prince. After being awarded the Hanlin, he hurriedly put aside the relationship... How could Jia Zhu do such a stupid thing?

But the prince didn't say anything, and Jia Zhu often went to and from the palace—who knows what Zhao Zhizhen's ambition is?

Just get close to the military officer and be a great general who protects his family and the country with all his heart?It's better to focus on increasing strength regardless of civil and military, not to mention aiming at that position, at least you have to work hard for the regent, right?

If it's just the former, Jia Zhu will do his best to assist, but he won't be exhausted and will try his best to make suggestions.

Facing her younger sister this time, Jia Zhu also had a lot of meaning, "I'm not quite the same as Brother Zhen in Ningfu, the twisted melon is not sweet."

In other words, if you want to be able to work hard, you must not only give benefits, but also let the other party know that you are worthy of hard work, including goals and means... As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to live on.

Yuan Chun didn't guess her brother's ambitions, but she knew that her brother was afraid that he would only serve him wholeheartedly if he wanted the prince to guarantee a thing or two.

She said, "My lord will be back soon."

Jia Zhu couldn't help laughing at her younger sister's confident appearance.

However, since the prince was not at home, he also had something to explain carefully, "Baoyu has been to Ningfu a few times, I heard some rumors, so I sent the appropriate person to investigate carefully."

It is said that his father, Jia Zheng, is not ~good~, and his elder brother, Jia Zhu, is even more self-sufficient. With his father and brother as an example, Baoyu is naturally very well-behaved, but he is still young after all... and a place like Ningfu... is of the same family after all, Yuanchun It's not easy to utter bad words, so I can only say, "Be more careful."

Jia Zhu's expression changed, "Brother Rong is not here, Brother Zhen has some ties with Brother Rong's daughter-in-law."

Yuan Chun immediately blushed, out of sheer anger, "He...how can he get down..."

Jia Zhu said: "This is a private virtue. If someone exposes it, the most they can do is to resign and go home with a disgrace."

Yuan Chun was shocked, "What's going on?"

Jia Zhu quickly eased her tone, "Don't worry. Brother Rong's daughter-in-law only said that she was brought here from the Yangshengtang... Her life experience may be involved."

Their Rong Mansion has never dictated to the Ning Mansion, but when they proposed marriage to Jia Rong back then, they were also very puzzled, why Qin Keqing, the adopted daughter of a small official, could win the favor of Jia Jing and Jia Zhen, and gave it to Jia Rong with three matches and six hires. Jia Rong became the official wife.

If there is no accident, Jia Rong will be the next patriarch of the Jia clan, and Jia Rong's wife will be the next clan wife...how can anyone be worthy of a clan wife? !

How could Yuanchun not understand this?

She asked in a low voice: "Could it be some golden branches and jade leaves?"

Jia Zhu replied: "I'm afraid it's not from this dynasty..." He also felt a lot of emotion when he said that, "It's just a woman, and there is no trouble. Even if this matter is publicized, the Ning Mansion only needs to say that they don't know His Majesty may not care too much about love. Now that Pingnan King is in trouble, I am afraid that if someone comes to use this as an excuse to force the Ning Mansion to do things for them... we should make preparations early."

Yuan Chun's face had already turned from red to white, but she immediately made a decision without delay, "I'll tell the prince right now." You have a good plan, and I can still have a wall ladder.

The author has something to say: I apologize to everyone, there are too many things at the end of the year, and I am a bit busy these days.

-----------

Qin Keqing's life experience, I personally think it is definitely not simple.Anyway, a down-and-out golden branch and jade leaf not only satisfies Jia Zhen's "taste", but also suits his ~political~political~speculative psychology.
