The Qinghe County Lord of the Red Chamber

Today, regardless of the excitement in the Jinxiu Tower, we only talk about the Shangyuan Festival in the palace. Naturally, the spring breeze opens the Purple Palace, and Tianle descends to the Zhulou.

However, the emperor is still immersed in the aftereffects of being hit by the foolish emperor years ago, so his interest is not high at all.It's all because the emperor likes to be lively, so the emperor ordered it to be grander.

However, the Taishanghuang is an old man after all, and some of them can't stay up all night, and they are tired before Haishi.

The emperor also used this to break up the banquet early, and then went to the queen's palace to rest.

Jia Yuanchun helped the hand holding the piano, and slowly walked back to the palace while admiring the lights.

He still didn't forget to ask: "Have you asked someone to go to Hexi Palace to give Baochai the Lantern Festival? That child is also pitiful. When he first entered the palace, he was a bit decent. Who would have thought that if he was careless for a while, he would be punished to learn the rules again? It hurts the face."

When it comes to Baochai, Yuanchun is really undecided.

In the past, she was attached to the concubine Xian, so she naturally wanted Baochai to be the third prince's concubine, so as to get closer.

But now she is extremely favored, and she is almost on equal footing with Concubine Xian.Not to mention that she was active on her own and unwilling to just follow in the footsteps of others, even if she was still loyal to Concubine Xian, could Concubine Xian trust her?

And a few years ago, there was an incident in the imperial history book, the cause was her, but it was Concubine Xian who was unlucky.

It became even colder between the two of them.

Up to now, although Yuan Chun can speak in front of the emperor, it is meaningless to promise Baochai to the third prince again.

Yuan Chun looked at the bright lights and thought about the letter from his mother Wang.

Jia's mother deliberately made Shi Xiangyun and Baoyu a pair, how could Mrs. Wang agree.Not to mention that Shi Xiangyun's parents died early, only her surname is Shi, and she is the daughter of Jia Mu's natal family, so Mrs. Wang would absolutely refuse!

So he secretly communicated with his daughter, still wanting to promise Baochai to Baoyu, and asked Yuanchun to think of a way to get Baochai out of the palace.

Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue have had a hard time this year. One is locked up in a Buddhist temple, and the other is worried about her daughter every day.It can be said that a friend in adversity sees the truth, and mutual support and comfort give birth to a great comrade-in-arms.

Of course Mrs. Wang would prefer Baochai as her own.

Although the Xue family's status is insufficient, when it comes to money, they are much better than the historians who have nothing in their pockets.

Besides, Shi Xiangyun has no father and no mother, and his uncle and aunt are just out of face. According to the old practice, giving her a dowry will not make people pick mistakes.

Mrs. Wang is in charge of the house herself, how can she not know the tricks of this dowry?

For example, according to the old practice, there are ten pairs of golden hairpins on the dowry list.But how can a hairpin inlaid with red gold gemstones and pearls compare with a bare gold hairpin?There are also dozens of times the price difference.

Another example is the number of shops and the amount of land and property. The list is just a number. Whether it is rich or not, there are plenty of famines to fight.

Mrs. Wang knew that when Jia Min got married, Mother Jia blindly favored her daughter. Although all the dowries were in accordance with the old rules, the quality was good, which made Mrs. Wang feel distressed for several years.

That's why in the aristocratic family, everyone is eager to fight for the right to be the housekeeper - even for their own children, they have to earn it to the end.

In the case of Shi Xiangyun's parents who both died, the dowry will definitely not be a good thing at that time. The two Mrs. Hou both have their own daughters, and they will not give them to others for nothing.

But the Xue family is different.Xue Pan didn't live up to it. If Xue Baochai could marry into the Rongguo Mansion, she would be the Xue family's reliance. Are you afraid that Aunt Xue won't choose the best one to accompany her daughter?

If Baochai and Xiangyun were born differently in the past, but now Baochai has entered the palace and served as a female official, it can be regarded as gilded, and it can be said in front of outsiders.

Yuan Chun thought about it here, hugged the piano and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is favored now, how many people in the palace want to swallow her alive like a black-eyed chicken. If there is another girl from your mother's family who becomes the prince's side concubine, wouldn't it be even more attractive?" Eye."

Yuan Chun sighed, "Nowadays noble concubines and virtuous concubines can't tolerate me, if only Baochai could live up to being the eldest prince's concubine."

She has no children of her own, and even if she is about to conceive and have a child now, she will not be in a hurry.

Seeing that it is difficult to live in harmony with noble concubines and concubines, of course it is better to come with the empress.Even if he has a child in the future, the eldest prince will not be too harsh on his younger brother, and he will still be able to have peace and wealth in the future.

But in front of the queen, no matter how Yuan Chun expresses his willingness to be loyal, the queen just doesn't answer.

Yuan Chun was also quite bored, so he could only say: "Forget it, let's take a step and see."

Coincidentally, Wang and Yuanchun's mother and daughter are not the only ones thinking about Baochai's marriage.

On the day of the Shangyuan Festival, Nan'an Palace will enter the palace to pay respects as usual.

On the way to the imperial concubine's palace, Zhou Wenran's mood was similar to the weather these days: gloomy, rainy and snowy.

Her Nan'an County Palace didn't know that it was Tai Sui who was ordered to commit crimes, and nothing good happened in the past two years.

First, my younger sister had an accident in the Baoninghou Mansion, not to mention the embarrassment, and even her position as the county head and her promising marriage were all over the place.That's all, the worst thing is that in the past year, Concubine Liu Guifei, mother and son, who have been betting on the family's bets, have been going downhill.

No, it cannot be called going downhill, it is simply rolling off a cliff.

Since the emperor tried his best to defy all opinions and even disobeyed his own mother's wishes, he wanted to make the Liu family the favor of the noble concubine. In this short period of one year, it turned out that Liu Guifei fell ill in the palace, and the emperor didn't care much about it. .

Zhou Wenran really wanted to shake the imperial concubine for a while, and ask her carefully, how did you manage to play like this when you had a son and a pet in the first place, and you had an excellent hand of cards.

What's more, the second prince lost his father's heart, and was thrown in the palace to study after the confinement. The third prince even received two errands after Chongyang!

Nan'an Wangfu is like buying a stock, buying it at the highest price, and then seeing the stock fall all the way to the limit, and finally lying at the low point and not moving, it is almost vomiting blood.

But it's too late to throw it out now.

The prince is not a stock, you can buy whatever you want, Nan'an Palace is like Liu Guifei's good family before, now if you want to jump to other princes' camp, they don't want it.

Don't say that the first prince is very hot, this stove is not up to their family to burn, even the third prince, they also have the Dongping County Palace, and they will not care about your swaying Nan'an County Palace.

So after all the calculations, the Zhou family could only grit their teeth and persist, hoping that the second prince would rebound from the bottom.

However, Zhou Wenran was somewhat comforted when he thought of the Dongping County Prince's Mansion.

At least not only the second prince was unlucky, but now the third prince is also reciting words.

The mother's family was criticized by name and ordered to reflect on it by the emperor, so much so that during the new year's festival, not to mention the men in Dongping County's mansion who dare not go out to have fun, even the female relatives, from the old lady to the girls, none of them came out to walk around. , All the cats obeyed the order and thought about their mistakes at home.

Zhou Wenran, who comforted himself with other people's misery, calmed down and entered the imperial concubine's palace.

Wuyang Palace is still magnificent and luxurious, but it is less bustling and bustling than before, and even more desolate and crowded.

The noble concubine was grateful for the unwavering love of the Nan'an Palace, so she hurriedly kissed Zhou Wenran and began to complain, her eyes turned red and even shed tears when she spoke.

Seeing Concubine Liu Gui crying to her, Zhou Wenran couldn't help but blacken his eyes: What's the use of you crying to me, cry in front of the emperor!

At the same time, he was speechless about the noble concubine's lack of backbone: God is indeed fair, since he gave her a stunning face, he didn't give her a complete brain.

So he could only persuade: "Your Majesty is depressed now, who will plan for the Second Highness in the future."

Seeing that there was no outsider in the hall, he bluntly persuaded him: "Your Majesty, cheer up, the time is still long, and it is not yet known who will die in the future. Don't say that His Highness is not a prince yet, he already is, the precedent of righteous loyalty is still there In front of you."

The only value of the deposed prince now is to be picked out as a negative example.

The imperial concubine stopped her tears and said: "I hate my mother's family for not being up to date and not being able to help my son. But in the current situation, it is difficult to find a good Yue's family for him."

Zhou Wenran had already made plans before he came, so he said: "The concubine is not in a hurry, you can pick it up slowly, and you can't be too far behind the concubine. However, the concubine can first choose a concubine for the prince. .”

Now she has no hope for the IQ of the imperial concubine, so she stopped playing those tricks of hinting and said directly: "I don't know what your empress thinks of Xue's daughter?"

Concubine Liu Guifei took a while to answer the question, then immediately frowned: "That's a relative of Concubine De." She was resenting Concubine De for taking away her favor, how could she ask her son to marry her younger sister.

Zhou Wenran said: "De concubine has no children, why don't you join hands with her? And the minister said something presumptuous, the mother's family is far away in Sichuan and the foundation is shallow, and it is too far to help His Highness the Second Highness."

"Although our family is dedicated to filial piety, it is difficult to support it alone. If we can borrow Xue's daughter to bring the four major families to the Second Highness's side, wouldn't it be good?"

Concubine Liu Gui was still unhappy: "She stole the emperor's favor, and now I want my palace to show her favor, wouldn't it be embarrassing." Zhou Wenran has already mentioned this, and the concubine is still here to tangle with the emperor's favor and marriage. Face is such an illusory thing.

Zhou Wenran couldn't help but not make her so stupid that she vomited blood, thinking: Why did my father choose the second prince last year, even if the second prince has the talents of all over the world, he can't let his mother be an incomprehensible idiot.

What's more, as far as she has heard about the behavior of the second prince in the past year, let alone the talent of the world, he has no idea of ​​the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth, and he is really in the same line as his mother.

Zhou Wenran couldn't help feeling a little disheartened, so he wanted to promote Concubine Liu Gui and Concubine De to join forces, with the intention of letting the four major families go to the top to accompany the concubine, so that he could take advantage of this.

Anyway, the king of Nan'an County has been stationed outside since he ascended the throne. If it is really impossible, the whole family should go to accompany his father, and the muddy water of the capital will not be waded.

Zhou Wenran's IQ is enough to crush ten Liu Guifeis, and she has always been used to dealing with her younger sister at home: Zhou Jingran is somewhat similar to a noble concubine, impatient but without a city.

So Zhou Wenran was very handy in dealing with Concubine Liu Gui. After some words of persuasion, Concubine Liu Gui expressed her willingness to let go of the past and let Xue's daughter be his son's concubine.

Besides, even if the four major families, especially Wang Ziteng, were unwilling to stand up, it would be nice to have a bet of money from the Xue family.

Zhou Wenran saw that Concubine Liu Gui could still listen to the persuasion, and it was not completely hopeless, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The night is long and has many dreams, please ask the empress to bring this matter up with the emperor as soon as possible."

Although the imperial concubine fell out of favor, it was not for the sake of the prince's concubine, but for the concubine, so this matter should be settled.

The cloud waves in the palace are treacherous, for Shang Chanchan at this time, it is a question that needs to be considered in the future.

At this time, she was wandering around in the hall of Jinxiu Building, dawdling and refusing to go back to the private room upstairs.

How happy I was when I was watching the excitement just now, how scared I am when I calm down now, she even asked Xie Ling: "The competition was my idea, and I saw my elder brother lose to sister Lin with my own eyes, do you think he won't silence me? .”

Xie Ling: ...

I only heard a noise at the door, accompanied by many surprised voices.Shang Chanchan didn't need to go outside the door to take a look, but she knew that Princess Lirong, who should have come riding a donkey, had attracted spectators again.

Sure enough, Princess Lirong walked in wearing Zhang Guolao's mask, and greeted them both: "What are you doing down there? Go upstairs quickly, there will be fireworks at three o'clock in the afternoon."

Only then did Shang Chanchan dare to follow Princess Lirong up.

When she entered the door, she saw a piece of cloud paper in front of Shang Chi, on which was written a poem in small letters with hairpin flowers, which should be Daiyu's Narcissus poem.

Shang Chanchan hurriedly showed her elder brother a respectful and flattering smile.

Shang Chi had already returned to his usual demeanor, and he handed the poem to Shang Chanchan: "Sister Lin's poem is very elegant, so you might as well take a look."

Then he continued word by word: "Speaking of which, I haven't taken the exam to teach you how to compose poetry for more than half a year."

Shang Chanchan suddenly felt grief and couldn't help herself, she didn't realize that Shang Chi had changed the name of Daiyu.

Daiyu said modestly: "My poems are more delicate after all, but because today's topic happens to be flowers and trees."

After three quarters of Haishi, all the poems have been judged, and it is indeed Daiyu who won the first prize.I saw two maids raised their heads carefully, and a pot of Luoshui Goddess came up.

The room was immediately soaked in the fragrance of narcissus.

Daiyu still wants to give this prize to Shang Chanchan.

Shang Chanchan waved her hand and said, "Sister Lin has won for two years, so it's better to go back empty-handed every time."

Daiyu shook her head and said with a smile: "Just now when you went downstairs for the martial arts test, Brother Shang and I were very bored, so I finished the one hundred and eight lantern riddles. So I still have a Duanyan inkstone, so I didn't return empty-handed. "

Shang Chanchan said in her heart: I will never understand the boredom of top students in my life.

Only then did he accept this pot of precious narcissus.

Unexpectedly, after everyone left, as soon as the two of them entered the gate of Baoninghou's mansion, Shang Chi said: "Find two suitable people to carry this potted flower to my house."

Shang Chanchan was startled when she saw him take such a natural robbery, and quickly said: "Brother, sister Lin gave me this."

Shang Chi smiled, took his sister's forehead as a table, bent his right index finger and tapped it, and said softly, "I'm going to report an important matter to my parents now. We will settle your account tomorrow."

Shang Chanchan's claws were numb immediately, and she changed her smile: "I have long thought that only the elder brother's house is suitable for this pot of Luoshui Goddess, so I will personally watch someone carry it."

Shang Chi was going to meet his parents directly, but at this moment he stopped, looked at his younger sister and said, "Do my parents have any plans for my marriage?"

Shang Chanchan looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "As a younger sister, how could I know about my elder brother's marriage. Brother, you should ask your parents yourself."

Shang Chi smiled: "Really? Then what is the purpose of all your painstaking efforts tonight?"

Shang Chanchan just shook her head: "Instead of forcing me here, big brother, why don't you go and ask Dad to understand. Besides, my painstaking efforts are not in vain, right?"
