Red Mansion: He Doesn't Want to Bend

Lin Daiyu stepped forward to greet Lin Jue, and Lin Jue asked her to sit on the other side of the kang, looking at her with gentle eyes. "It's cold today, why don't you hold a stove to warm your hands when you come here." As he said, he passed the stove in his hand. "You have always been weak, you should always be careful."

"I'm okay, but brother, his face is very pale." Lin Daiyu sat on the small kang, and let Jixue remove her cloak behind her.Seeing Lin Jue handing over the stove, he hurriedly said, "Brother just hold it, I'm not cold now."

"When it's cold, there is no room for you to argue." Qiang stuffed the heater in his hand, "I covered this for a while, and it was warm. It was just when you joined hands that you came in from the cold wind and held this It’s just right, I’ll ask someone to bring another one.”

So, that's all.

You Shan put the porridge and side dishes on the kang table, and poured a bowl with Lin Jue.Then he found a colorful glazed bowl on the side, put it in a bowl, and gave it to Daiyu. "This porridge is hot, the girl just came out of the wind, eating some hot porridge to warm her body."

Lin Daiyu came back from the palace all the way. When she was in the palace, because she remembered the rules, she usually only ate [-]% full. When she arrived at Lin's mansion, she only ate a few candied fruit at Jia Min's place.So the clear porridge is in his hand, and the side dishes on the table are refreshing, with the rare shrimp roe and squid, his index finger twitches.He took the spoon and shared a bowl with Lin Jue.

After using it for a while, the servant girl brought tea to rinse her mouth.When things were over, the two of them brought tea to eat.

Lin Jue asked her with a smile: "Recently, your spleen and stomach seem to be getting better. You often enter the palace, and your temper has become much calmer."

"There are many rules in the palace, so it's better to be at home."

"There are many rules in the family, but your parents love you and don't want to make things difficult for you. And because you are still young, even if you made mistakes in the past, they don't want to criticize you."

Lin Daiyu held her tea and smiled, and said after a long time: "I was in the palace today, but I met King Kangxian."

This King of Kangxian County is the fifth son of the empress dowager and the empress dowager, he visited the Lin residence once in the past, he is about the same age as Lin Jue, Lin Jue still remembers him a bit.Today, he is not very close to him. Generally speaking, if he is born in the middle palace, even if he does not inherit the great position, he should be named a prince.The current empress dowager has two sons, the third son of the former emperor is now the king of Jinzhuang County, and the fifth son of the emperor is the king of Kangxian County, but none of them is a prince.

It can be seen how deep the friendship with these two younger brothers is today.

Originally, the mother of the king of Kangxian County was the middle palace, and she was raised by tens of thousands of people, pampered and pampered.Although the Duke of Jinzhuang was a little older than him, his aptitude was mediocre, and none of him was outstanding in both literary and martial arts.The king of Jinzhuang County is also obsessed with the guqin, not the throne.Therefore, half of the people put their treasure on the King of Kangxian County, and the other half put their treasure on the fourth son of the original emperor who was only named Gongyibo.Unexpectedly, the one who boarded the great treasure was Konaka, who was the most hopeless in the first place.

There is a reason why the King of Kangxian County is not waiting to be seen today.As I said earlier, father being emperor and brother being emperor are completely different scenes.King Kangxian now only has a county king, even the location of the house given to him is not very good.Those people in the palace acted according to the wind, and seeing that the emperor didn't like King Kangxian, they naturally refused to give him a lot of convenience.To build a house, make it.If they want good wood and good things, they can't make the decision, they have to get the emperor's decree.

Therefore, Lin Daiyu saw King Kangxian today because he had no choice but to go to Shoukang Palace to beg the Empress Dowager.

Lin Daiyu talked about the joints, and Lin Jue couldn't help shaking her head.When we meet today, we only know that others are as light as chrysanthemums, like the wind surpassing the moon.Looking at it now, it turned out to be such a narrow-minded person.He couldn't help but think of King Kangxian. When the Lin family saw him in the past, King Kangxian was still the fifth son of the Supreme Emperor. He was so high-spirited and outstanding, but now he fell into such a situation. He couldn't help but sigh.

"My elder brother told me that today he is a broad-minded and outstanding person. Now I look at it, but it is very different."

How exactly it is different is not clear.

Lin Jue looked at the blue tea in the teacup, twitched the corners of his mouth, with a sarcasm on his face: "Outstanding is the truth. A person who can be crowned a great treasure is by no means ordinary."

It's just that he is cruel and merciless, and he must retaliate, which is also different from ordinary people.

After a while, Lin Jue said again: "These things are not for you and me to discuss rashly. It's fine to say it once, I just pretended not to listen. When you meet others in the future, you will only think that you are still the Lin family. Miss, you are not the lord of Fushou County, and you don't often come and go in the harem. If I ask you something, just say that you don't know."

Misfortune comes from the mouth, the reason is like this.Even Lin Jue was also worried that his younger sister would not follow the crowd, causing trouble was second, and losing her life was not worth it.

Lin Daiyu is naturally intelligent, so she has nothing to do. She often goes to the palace, and her mind becomes sharper.Now that Lin Jue said these words, she should understand that the reason why her brother is around her is for good.

She said with a smile: "I just talk to my brother. This year's New Year's Eve, just in time for today's enthronement, I heard from the Empress Dowager that it seems to be a grand gesture. Father is fine, he often Entering the palace. Mother and elder brother, it makes me worry. My mother is better than my elder brother. Anyway, I beg the empress dowager for a favor. The empress dowager can make my mother feel more comfortable. My elder brother is a foreigner, so there are many inconveniences. That day on the Qianqiu Festival, my brother was in poor health. On this New Year’s Eve, there is no need to blow the cold wind again. It’s an honor, but who sees us suffer. Brother, it’s better to be sick, and the left and right are not indispensable. .”

Lin Jue smiled wryly when he heard the words, there were so many constraints in the palace, and that person was in front of the emperor, so he naturally didn't want to go.It's just that today the imperial physician has already asked the imperial physician to let her know that Lin Jue will be carried away even if she sends a chariot and sedan chair this time.After a few months of not seeing each other, Komasami's patience is reaching its limit.

He still put on a face that was all right, as if he didn't care about it: "It's all trivial things, it's not worth your trouble, the boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge. But you, now you are the owner of Fushou County, naturally you are the same as in previous years Different, etiquette should be more comprehensive."

"This year, Princess Canju and I sit with the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager is protecting me, so my brother doesn't have to worry about me." Speaking of this, Lin Daiyu paused: "This year's New Year's Eve is over, and I heard that King He Rui didn't Stay a little longer, we will start our journey in the third year of junior high school. Brother and King He Rui have always been on good terms, so why don't you go and see him off?"

Lin Jue's eyes were in a trance, looking at a peony vase not far away, with a very pale smile on his face, but his tone was very cold and erratic: "I have already sent him. Besides, we have always been friends." , but these words are too exaggerated. He is a prince, and I am just an ordinary official, how can I say such a good word?"

Lin Daiyu was suspicious, because Lin Jue had a lot of contacts with King He Rui in the past, and the Ping Qin raised in her own yard was caught by Lin Jue from King He Rui's other courtyard.If this is not friendship, what is it?Could it be that in recent days, because Lin Jue was ill and King He Rui never came to see him, a rift arose?

Lin Jue was not such a narrow-minded person, Lin Daiyu should understand.So I just said: "I heard from Princess Canju that King He Rui has lost a lot of weight when he came in. I often stay in Shoukang Palace, but I have never seen him. It is probably very difficult."

Not even seeing his own mother who gave birth to him, it must have been extremely difficult.Lin Jue closed her eyes and said in a cold voice, "This is not what you should say."

If Lin Jue said such things to Lin Daiyu in the past, she would definitely be angry.But now that Lin Jue is ill, the patient has a weird temper, she didn't take it seriously, she just said: "Brother doesn't like to hear, I won't talk about it in the future."

So I picked up some other words, such as Dongping, Xining, Nan'an, and Beijing's four princes' mansions, this time there are girls sent to the palace.The first lady Shui Ying in the Prince's Palace of Beijing is the worst, and entering the palace is the honor of a queen.And today, the concubine Yuan, the birth mother, was appointed as the empress dowager, and the Supreme Emperor praised him for treating his mother with kindness and filial piety.He also said that Uncle Gongyi drank in the house all day long, and was often very drunk and very unrestrained.Mrs. Zuo Taigui begged to go to the Empress Dowager, but the Empress Dowager only said that she was no longer in charge of the harem, so she was sent back.The empress dowager is still kind, and she thinks that Gongyi Boxu is because there is no one in the house.Although none of the elder brothers took the right concubine, he could welcome a concubine at his own discretion, and the main room should be settled first.I don't know why, because I heard that there was a girl in Xue's family, the former imperial merchant, who would be twelve after New Year's Eve, so she was a good match.In two years' time, both elder brothers will marry the main wife, and it's time to welcome them.So he issued a decree to give the eldest daughter of Xue's family to be Gong Yibo's wife.In addition, two girls were given to go down, and they were carried over first, and they opened their faces to serve.

That's all for the rest, but this last incident made Lin Jue dumbfounded.Unexpectedly, Xue Baochai, who was going to marry Jia Baoyu, has long since become Uncle Gongyi's wife.But it is completely different from before.

Lin Jue doubted, "No matter how good Miss Xue is, she is only twelve. Why did the Empress Dowager think of her? Could it be because you often mention her?"

Lin Daiyu shook her head: "I am cautious in my words and deeds in the palace, and I never dare to speak too much about others, lest a careless word will harm them. I really don't know why the Empress Dowager thinks of Sister Bao. The only thing is, too The Empress Dowager came to Shoukang Palace today before giving her marriage, and sat for a long time before leaving."

Today... Lin Jue caressed the teacup in his hand, thoughtfully.Today, I intend to welcome the concubine for Bo Gongyi?What is the reason?These two are deadly rivals. When they were princes, they have been tortured a lot by Mrs. Zuo.This account is naturally counted on the head of Uncle Gongyi...Nowadays, the emperor ordered the Empress Dowager to bestow the marriage, and it was Xue Baochai...

Lin Daiyu has left, but Lin Jue is still puzzled.After taking a sip of tea, he inadvertently thought that after the death of Xue Baochai's father, because of Xue Pan's elder brother, their Xue family has gradually lost!

If you have this kind of thought... What if the idea of ​​giving the marriage is to let the Xue family drag down Gongyi Bo, so that he will have no future to speak of? !A chill rose in Lin Jue's heart, and he couldn't help but shuddered, his face was terrifying, and he felt his hair stand on end.

If this is the case, the heart of the present is too vicious.If he hadn't remembered, Xue Pan would have been sued for his life!Killing everything, he is indeed the one who can surpass all the brothers and ascend to the throne.
