[Red Chamber] Jia Lian has an ancestor system

In mid-May, the weather was extremely hot and muggy, with the cicadas chirping and screaming on the big trees, and the dark clouds gathering from all directions in the afternoon shrouded the capital in an instant.

If there is a vision in the sky, there will be chaos on the earth.

Jia Lian looked at the sky that was turned upside down like a black pot, and remembered that in his previous life, it was also such an afternoon and the same weather. After the heavy rain, bad news came from the palace.

At this time, in Fengzao Palace, the once noble and beautiful Concubine Yuan never woke up after drinking the last bowl of decoction.

The heavy rain outside the door knocked the bright red pomegranate flowers to the ground.

May pomegranate flowers bloomed all over the palace, after all, they did not wither naturally when they bear fruit.

When the heavy rain came, I was caught off guard, and when it went, it disappeared, leaving only petals all over the ground.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" The voice of holding the piano and crying echoed in Fengzao Palace.

The queen, concubines, and imperial physicians all came to Fengzao Palace one after another.

When the news reached Qinzheng Palace, the dragon face changed slightly, but the writing hand did not stop. After a while, the emperor recovered his expression, raised his head and said: "I see, the imperial concubine Yuan has always been in poor health. She has already gone, so it is considered a If you are no longer sick, let me inform you, and you will be buried according to concubine etiquette."

When Jia's mansion heard the news, Manfu panicked.Jia Zheng was far away and couldn't come back for a while. Jia She was sick and unable to make decisions. Everything was on Jia Lian.

Mother Jia just happened to be unwell recently, and the heat was hard to dissipate. When she heard the obituary, she fell down with her head up.

When Jia Mu woke up, she had a severe headache, but she still supported herself and asked, "What's going on? Why did you die when you were fine?"

Jia Lian knelt in front of the bed: "The little eunuch who only listened to the news said that my mother had been unwell for a long time, and her medicine didn't improve. She passed away at three o'clock today."

In the house, the wives, grandmas, maids, and daughters-in-law knelt on the ground, crying loudly.

Mrs. Wang was sad and anxious again, and her eyes were swollen from crying.

Although Jia Lian had already made psychological preparations, but when things really came, he was like a headless chicken, not knowing what to do.

After finally calming down, he didn't dare to leave the mansion, fearing that word would come from the palace, so he had to send Jia Rong to inquire about the news.

It wasn't until dusk that the palace sent someone over in a hurry to talk about the funeral.

Although Jiamu, Mrs. Wang and others who had the imperial edict were sad, they had to get up at four o'clock the next day and put on filial piety to go to the palace to guard the spirit.

Sister Feng has no orders, but stays at home to take care of affairs.

The mansion was completely decorated in plain white. Sister Feng looked at Jia Lian and said solemnly, "Things are as expected. Now that this big tree falls, I'm afraid our days will be even more difficult."

Jia Lian didn't say a word, only thinking that soon after the empress passed away, Jia's mansion would be confiscated.

Now is not the time to be sad, there is much to be done.

Although Lin Daiyu went to pay homage to the concubine of the Yuan Dynasty in accordance with court etiquette, she couldn't talk to the old lady and others, so she could only take some time to say some words of comfort.

She said with pity: "Death cannot be brought back to life, so I hope grandma, aunt, etc. take care of their health."

Mother Jia cried so much that her eyes would go out of tears, and she replied, "The concubine should also take care of herself."

While he was talking, a court lady rushed over and said, "He hanged himself while holding the qin."

Everyone was shocked!

Daiyu had doubts in her heart, thinking that for a loyal person like her, although she might go with the lord, but Concubine Yuan died strangely, so she left, seeing that there is no proof of death.

Jia Mu and the others also had some guesses, but they could only guess after all, so they had to swallow this bowl of bitter water silently.

Daiyu returned to the mansion and brought up the matter of Baoqin's martyrdom with Qingyan.

Daiyu said: "Although the imperial concubine Yuan's phoenix body was indeed against harmony a few days ago, she really didn't understand how she left. I'm afraid the situation will become more complicated in the future."

"I am also very worried that after the death of Concubine Yuan, the Jia Mansion will plummet, and the situation between the court and China will become more tense. If there is anything I can do in the future, you must not hide it."

Lin Daiyu glanced at Qingyan: "It's very good that you have such a heart, and I will accept it on behalf of my ancestors. It's just that the situation in the future may exceed your and my imagination. If you can take care of yourself, you will be a god." Big and rare."

Qing Yan said: "I'll talk to old Mr. Fan Zhao after my mother's funeral."

Daiyu straightened Qing Yan's clothes: "Fortunately, there is Mr. Fan in Beijing."

This day Qingyan came to Fan's residence and asked about the troubles in his heart one by one.

Fan Zhao persuaded: "Your Highness, don't panic. If Concubine Yuan is safe and sound, I'm not sure. Now that Concubine Yuan is gone, the Jia family will definitely not be able to keep it. At least one year, at most half a year, then we will take action."

Qing Yan asked: "Then according to the old man, what should I do?"

"Your Highness doesn't have to do anything, just remember that when the emperor needs you, you can do things without any scruples. If the emperor wants you to rob your house, you can rob it without any scruples; if the emperor wants to ban you, it's enough , you will stay in the mansion peacefully; if the emperor wants to use your hands to eradicate someone, you will generously offer your hands..."

"..." Qing Yan looked at his hands subconsciously, and a chill seeped in from behind.

Fan Zhao laughed and said: "Your Highness, don't worry too much, these are just the only way to take the throne of God King."

Although Qingyan also understands that this road is not destined to be so smooth, but think about it, the emperor's mind is really unfathomable.

"I don't know if the sixth brother is also like me. Sure enough, when the brothers fight, do you want you to die?"

But Fan Zhao said: "Your generation is nothing, but the generation of the late emperor was tragic. In comparison, one is a raging flood, the other is just a trickle. Does His Highness want to retreat now?"

Qing Yan shook his head and smiled wryly: "There is no turning back when you shoot the bow, it's just that you can't bear it in the end."

"That's right, the seizing of the throne in all dynasties all came from this state of mind."

The spirit of Concubine Yuan was sent to Hebei, and Jia Mu and others went out early and returned late every day, and went to the imperial mausoleum to guard the spirit for a period of time.

Jia Lian had just returned to the mansion that day when Lai Dashi handed over a letter and a small package.

Seeing that it was from Liu Xianglian, Jia Lian excitedly opened it and saw that the second younger brother Liu not only agreed to the marriage, but also sent his birth date and engagement token.This time it is no longer a sharp sword, but a string of bodhi bracelets.

Long before Concubine Yuan passed away, Tanchun gave a positive reply, and Jia Lian immediately sent a letter to Liu Xianglian, explaining her intentions.

Now Liu Xianglian replied so quickly and sincerely, saying that he got the chain by chance in Guangxiao Temple in Guangzhou.

Jia Lian felt more at ease, and only waited for Concubine Yuan to pass Qiqi before talking to the old lady.

Although there are two aspects of national filial piety and family filial piety, the old lady must also understand that if Tanchun's marriage is not implemented at this time, it will be even more difficult to find a suitable person in the future.

He called Mrs. Wang, Tanchun and Aunt Zhao to the old lady and told everyone about it.

Jia Lian said: "Old lady, madam, it is Lian'er who is not filial. Long before my mother passed away, I wanted to talk about marriage for my third sister, so I wrote a letter to Liu Erdi. Half a month ago, Liu Erdi wrote a letter, not only agreeing, I also sent my birthday horoscope and engagement tokens..."

The old lady, who had been lying on the sickbed for nearly half a month, was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "It's hard for you to be considerate of the third girl. This child Xianglian has a noble character and an upright appearance. The Liu family is also a good family with us, and it was only because of the misunderstanding of the screwdriver that we became a monk. San girl, what do you think?"

Tanchun knew well that this marriage was feasible to her at first, but now that even the empress is dead, her state of mind has changed from feasible to firm.

She is capable of doing things shrewdly, and she has this good opportunity to go out and start a career, so what is she taboo about?

Tanchun then knelt down and said, "The situation at home is like this, and Tanchun only relies on the old lady to make decisions."

Aunt Zhao wanted to say something, but the matter had come to an end, she couldn't say anything, so she kept her mouth shut.

Jia Lian also said: "Second brother Liu has sent a letter from Geng Tie, and since the old lady agrees, we will naturally return a letter and send the letter of engagement along with it."

Jia Mu said, "It should be. My wife should find a token."

Mrs. Wang nodded in agreement.

Mother Jia sighed: "It's just that there is filial piety in the mansion, I'm afraid I can't make a fuss even if I get engaged, and I have to wait for the filial piety to get married."

"It's natural, don't worry, the old lady. Brother Liu said in his letter that the business in Guangzhou is just starting, and it will take some time before it settles down. Brother Liu is very different from previous years. I just heard him write about all kinds of things for the future. It was only after I made up my mind that I entrusted my third younger sister to him."

Jia Mu nodded heavily: "Since he has such a heart, he is afraid that he can't do anything."

When Tanchun came out, Aunt Zhao followed and called out to Tanchun, "Miss."

Tanchun looked back and saw that it was Aunt Zhao. The mother and daughter looked at each other with mixed emotions in their hearts.

Aunt Zhao and Tanchun were not close, but she always understood that the girl she gave birth to was a kind-hearted girl, and because of her status as a concubine, she was more competitive.Although she had quarreled and quarreled a lot with girls in the past, but now she is about to get engaged, as a mother, she is always worried.

Aunt Zhao spat and said, "Young lady, although I can't make the decision, I still hope for your well-being."

After hearing this, Tanchun knew that she was worried that her betrothed would have nothing and would suffer if she married, so she relaxed and smiled: "Don't worry, Auntie, I have my own concerns."

When Jia Baoyu heard about the marriage between Tanchun and Liu Xianglian, the sun finally appeared on his face, which had been gloomy for many days.

He even said excitedly: "The third younger sister is talented, and the second brother Liu has also taken care of her. They are naturally a good match."

In the past few days, Tanchun also made a pair of shoes, and asked Jia Lian to send them together when he wrote back.

Sister Feng said: "I didn't expect that you, a great matchmaker, have made a great marriage."

Jia Lian: "Is there anything wrong with my marriage?"

Sister Feng smiled and stopped talking.
