A Dream of Red Mansions Unexpected Visitors

Mrs. Wang has been feeling out of spirit these past few days, and her mind is lazy. She asked the doctor, but it was mixed with sorrow and joy. It was caused by too much exhaustion, and it was just a word of rest.It's true, on the one hand, the empress is pregnant, on the other hand, Baoyu is throwing the psychic jade, and then mixed with the Xue family's affairs, and the shock of the southern defeat, even a spiritual person will be exhausted, not to mention that Mrs. Wang is in charge of the whole family. There are dozens of things in Rongguo Mansion, if not hundreds of them a day.

It's just that Baoyu's jade is her top priority. It was strange to say it back then, and she didn't think about making any auspicious omens, but Baoyu was born with a piece of transparent jade as big as a bird's egg. In the future, my own destiny will be established, the power will be in my hands, Jia Min will die, and my daughter will become a noble concubine in the palace. Therefore, Mrs. Wang is more concerned about this piece of jade than Baoyu.This time the jade disappeared, and Mrs. Wang felt that this meant that the little dragon in the empress' belly would not be born, so she was always worried.At this moment, Yu Chuan'er had just brought a cup of ginseng soup to invigorate Qi, when Jia Mu sent a mandarin duck, with a flustered face, trembling, and only said one sentence: "Your Majesty is not well."

Mrs. Wang couldn't hold back the ginseng soup and spilled it on her dress. Baoyu next to her was also in the room and burst into tears when she heard the news: "Eldest sister shouldn't go to that place in the palace, let's go and pick her up." When Madam Wang heard Baoyu's cry, she became even more irritable, so she had someone persuade Baoyu to leave, and she hurried to Jiamu's place.

At this time, all the masters in the mansion were in the house, except for the two brothers Jia Zheng and Jia She, the two masters of the historian family and Jia Zhenyou's family in the East Mansion were also there. The realm that does not change color in front of him is walking back and forth impatiently, saying: "What the hell is going on, the empress has trustworthy staff, and among the people in the human palace on our side, apart from Concubine Wu, there is the third prince's adopted son. , no one else has an heir, and everyone is looking forward to this child, how can something happen?"

At this time, Mother Jia also lost her usual old look, she let out a sigh of relief, and said, "It's our own family who are ruthless when they fight. None of us thought that Concubine Wu Gui and her third prince's adopted son really have a deep love between mother and child." , and don't care about the friendship between our four kings and eight princes who are with the current Taishang. We all thought that the third prince was just the prince in her name, and he didn't even change the jade butterfly, so naturally he didn't care. In the past, we could borrow The third prince got the attention of the emperor. Since the defeat of the South, the emperor has turned his anger on the third prince. Among the three princes, he was the most valued before, but now he is mediocre. Then Concubine Wu should also know that her eyebrows are high and her eyes are low, and she will give up this abandoned son. At this point, Mother Jia's face was flushed and her breath was heavy, and the frightened mandarin ducks hurriedly served tea, rubbed her shoulders and patted her back.

Youshi accepted the words and continued: "I just found out that Concubine Wu was tricked by other concubines in the past, and she has no children in this life. The third prince is her lifeblood. How could she give up? But she didn't Tell my family that I am afraid that my family will send our daughter to the palace again. Originally, there was only one third prince in our palace, even the adopted son of Concubine Wu, there is nothing we can do about it, but if the little prince is born, the blood of our family will flow I am not afraid of not getting close to our four kings and eight lords. Naturally, those connections and forces are all directed towards our empress. This Concubine Wu originally hated King Nan'an in her heart, only the empress was not responsible. I sent a Guanyin of Songzi impregnated with sandalwood mixed with musk. Because of the good omen, the empress was unprepared, so she was recruited. What is even more annoying is that Concubine Wu was worried that the empress would not believe her, so she told the empress to wear clothes on weekdays. Be careful, be careful that someone in the Clothes Bureau was bribed to tamper with the clothes. Sure enough, after finding out the problem, the empress was more relieved of her. Who knew that the problem with the clothes was also caused by her, but it was just a slap in the face. The emperor favored her a few years ago. She, the Wu family controls a lot of power in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Originally, we had the Xue family here, so we were not afraid of playing tricks, but that idiot Xue killed someone and lost his title as an imperial merchant, so people took advantage of the opportunity to enter. It was discovered that the problem with the clothes was also instructed by Concubine Wu Gui."

At this moment, Mother Jia had recovered her breath and asked: "At this time, the empress has used a secret medicine to forcefully keep the fetus in her body, but our imperial doctor said that the baby's breathing is weak and it won't last long, what should we do? "

Everyone in the room was relatively silent, this is fate, what else can we do.On the contrary, Mrs. Wang only thought that Baoyu should be here if she lost that piece of jade, and Concubine Wu Gui is a devil, and said fiercely: "Even if the empress can't give birth to a little prince, she can't take advantage of that white-eyed wolf of the Wu family."

Seeing that the others were silent, Jia Mu sneered and said, "I think so too. The other eight princes have come to persuade me that they have reached this level, so forget it. After all, the mother's child is gone, and we still have to rely on the third prince." Yes. It’s just that they all forgot that the Eight Dukes were headed by our Ningrong Second Mansion back then. If it’s true, let’s forget about the capital, who among us old relatives can think highly of our family, and don’t fight back. They thought we were toothless tigers who would bully us. I am afraid that Concubine Wu Gui is only left with the third prince because she lost the child in her womb. We still have to rely on her. We can only grit our teeth and swallow the pain The Wu family dares to underestimate the Duke's Mansion like this, I'm not dead yet."

Everyone also knew that this was an unsolvable problem. The Wu family and the Jia family had a grudge. After all, there is still a third prince in the family, it's better than nothing.Now if you want to fight against the Wu family, although it is a fight in the nest, you must not lose the reputation of the Jia family. Otherwise, if the Jia family does not fall, even the old relatives will fall into trouble. You can lose everything, but you can't lose face.

Seeing that everyone agrees, Mother Jia nodded, knowing that these people are useless, and it is better to give advice to the empress herself, as long as they are just running errands.Since I went to make arrangements, it was reported a few days later that Concubine Wu's collision with Concubine Xiande caused damage to the descendants of the dragon. I am afraid that they will not be able to keep it, and they were relegated to Zhaoyi among the nine concubines.The third prince seemed to be seriously ill, and was sent by the emperor to find a famous doctor outside the palace for treatment.Mother Jia thought she was proud of herself, but she didn't know that the emperor was also sweating secretly.Unexpectedly, Concubine Wu and the people at the head of the Jia family could fight each other. The third prince taught him himself since he was a child. Although he seemed close to Concubine Wu, he was actually the closest to himself. The only child he taught himself was really dear to him. Not to mention that this child is born with a big heart and a big pattern. I didn't expect that the Jia family would dare to send the acne marks of those acne-prone children to the third prince. If they stayed in the palace, they might show some flaws. Send it out of the palace.Furthermore, this child has a deep affection with Concubine Wu's mother and son. On the one hand, keep him away from struggles, and not to help the group of people under the Supreme Emperor because of Concubine Wu; What kind of life is he living under, seeing how these old nobles oppressed the people, I believe that when he comes back, he will no longer have the kindness of a woman, and the state of the world is the attitude that a prince should have.

The conversation was divided into two parts, but it was said that when Jia She returned to the big room, he discussed with Mrs. Xing: "Your Majesty, the little prince is gone now, and our family will definitely send a girl to the palace. Considering the status, besides Yingchun Who, should we invite a few nuns to teach us the etiquette of welcoming the Spring Festival?"

Madam Xing nodded again and again, thinking about it and feeling sorry for the money that invited the nanny, she suddenly made up her mind and said: "Master, don't worry, it's almost Chinese New Year now, Brother Lian can't come back, but Sister Feng wants to bring her back Well, at the beginning, she and Miss Lin agreed that Nanny Chen would go to help her take care of her body for half a year, and now they will definitely come back together. We will just ask Nanny Chen to help and give advice. Who can compare to coming out of the palace? Where's the nanny?"

Jia Amnesty nodded. Sure enough, a few days later, Sister Feng came back with big bags and small bags, but Ping'er did not come back.Jia's mother teased her, her face was rosy, she didn't see jealousy, she smiled and said, "If you don't leave Ping'er there, I don't feel relieved about Lian'er's temper." Sister Feng comforted Wang with some sweet words. Mrs. Jia's speech really made the whole house happy.

After Sister Feng finally settled down, Mrs. Xing quietly went to find her. When Sister Feng went to the big room, she was shocked to find that Mr. Jia She was there.After hearing the plans of the two couples, she thought to herself: "Sister Lin just said a few days ago that the second sister almost married the Sun family bastard, and asked me to find her a good husband. I really found a lot of good people. The sisters have been together for so many years, why let her go to the palace to suffer like this, it's just to accumulate virtue for my brothers and sisters."

Sister Feng rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Master's idea is naturally good, but the second girl's temperament is known to both the master and wife. Even our eldest daughter, Yuan Jie, can be tricked by others, so be good. Without a little prince, our second girl is afraid that we will disappear without a single voice, so why do we bother to fill it in for nothing. Besides, I didn’t say that my aunt is so upright at the moment, do you want our elders to enter the palace to snatch her? The eldest girl's doting, even if the old lady agrees, even if the second girl goes in, she will definitely not be able to become a concubine, it's just a waste of time."

Jia Amnesty struck with both fists and sighed, "Could it be that such a good opportunity is just given up?"

Sister Feng smiled and said: "It may not be good to enter the palace. Sister Yuan entered the palace. The money we spent can make a few golden men. Apart from the good name, we have not gained any benefits. It is better to give Sister Yingchun finds a husband with a rich family, and we can also benefit. I have a good candidate. It goes without saying that the second son of their family wants to study and become an official. It goes without saying that he is smart. There must be some part of him in the game. Our second girl is calm and loves to play chess, and she is afraid of getting along with the second son. Their family is really not much different from the salt merchants in the south. The second son is probably more than the Xue family. Last time I tested my words, and when it comes to our second girl, their family is also willing. They also want to marry a daughter but are afraid of temper. My lord, I heard that our second girl doesn't want to be in charge of the family, but wants to marry this family. I haven't said anything yet, but I'm waiting for the master and wife to decide after I come back this time. I heard that just The betrothal gift is probably 8 to [-] taels of silver, and I don’t care about the dowry, as long as the book is fragrant and beautiful.”

Jia Amnesty and Mrs. Xing were overjoyed. They were very disappointed when they heard that Yingchun could not enter the palace, but they did not expect such a turnaround. They hurriedly agreed, and planned that the dowry would be paid by the public, so the dowry would be half of Yingchun's marriage. Without losing face, I can still get benefits.Asked when she would come to propose marriage, Sister Feng said with a smile: "If the master agrees, I will send a letter to Lian'er. The engagement is inevitable. It's just that he is also loyal. He said that if it is done, we will only wait for the gold list next year." Jia Amnesty was even more joyful, remembering that the second room, Jia Zhu, was only a scholar before his death, and his son-in-law was already a Juren, and he might be a Jinshi next year, so he hurriedly urged Sister Feng to write a letter quickly, so that this good son-in-law would not be punished. Someone else robbed it.

The author has something to say: Yingchun is finally getting married, hehehehe
