Be a maid in the red mansion [Comprehensive]

Jiang Wanyin got up and wanted to see Xue Yan, but she stopped when she reached the door.

No, she can't go.If she asked, how would she explain that she knew about Prince Rong and Concubine Zhen.Forget it, she'd better pretend not to know, and try to find out later.

And both of them are angry, if it's not a good thing, she'd better not get into trouble.

As Jiang Wanyin guessed, something happened, and it was really not a good thing.

It turned out that after Wang Xiuyao went to pay her respects to Mrs. Fengsheng, she was summoned by Concubine Zhen, and she also met other wives of salt merchants there.The wives of other merchants talked about their daughters, and talked about the four sons and one daughter of the Xue family concubine, in order to deliberately provoke Wang Xiuyao.Wang Xiuyao was enraged, and for a moment couldn't bear to ignore Xue Yan's exhortation and leaked Baoying's matter in front of Concubine Zhen.

After saying that, she regretted it, and asked her servants to come back and find Xue Yan.

Xue Yan naturally went to see Prince Rong, but Xue Yan didn't know that Wang Xiuyao had slipped the tongue with Concubine Zhen, and Xue Yan didn't say a word about sending Bao Ying to Prince Rong's mansion as a concubine.

After the couple came out from Concubine Zhen and Prince Rong and returned to the other courtyard, Xue Yan learned from Wang Xiuyao that Wang Xiuyao had slipped her tongue. Xue Yan was furious and reprimanded Wang Xiuyao.Xue Yan told Wang Xiuyao that Bao Ying had been favored by Prince Kang as a concubine, and Wang Xiuyao was frightened.

Wang Xiuyao wanted Baoying to enter Prince Rong's mansion because of An's kindness.She had already thought about it, and when Bao Ying entered Prince Rong's mansion, she would ask Concubine Zhen to appoint Bao Ying as a concubine girl on the grounds that Bao Ying's concubine's family background was low.This concubine girl is the lowest position in the palace besides the housemaid.

Wang Xiuyao had already expressed this meaning when she confided in Concubine Zhen.

Wang Xiuyao plotted against Bao Ying, so naturally she didn't want Bao Ying to be well.She was afraid of Jiang Wanyin and did not dare to do anything to Jiang Wanyin, so she planned to plot against Baoying to take revenge on Jiang Wanyin.

But now, even if she knew that Bao Ying had become Prince Kang's concubine, she didn't have the heart to be jealous, because she was frightened stupid by this matter.

She has already let Concubine Zhen slip her tongue. If Concubine Zhen and Prince Rong knew that Bao Ying's dead girl was already the concubine of Prince Kang's mansion, Concubine Zhen and Prince Rong would definitely think that she and the Xue family were teasing them. Concubine Zhen and Prince Rong will be furious at that time, and they will anger her and the Xue family...

The couple came back from the other courtyard as if fleeing. Wang Xiuyao was so frightened that she took her two children and hid back to the main courtyard. Xue Yan went back to the study in the front courtyard full of anger. When he was alone, he was left with panic and confusion.

But he said that Prince Rong had met Xue Yan, and he was in a very good mood after getting a silver note of [-] from Xue Yan.Coincidentally, Concubine Zhen sent someone to invite Prince Rong over for a meal, and Prince Rong went to Concubine Zhen's courtyard.

When the mother and son were chatting, they talked about what Wang Xiuyao said.

Hearing Concubine Zhen mention Prince Rong was curious.

"Then Xue Wang really said that?"

"What? Yanger, you don't know, didn't Xue Yan tell you?"

Seeing that Prince Rong didn't know, Concubine Zhen wondered.

"No. Xue Yan didn't mention it."

Prince Rong thought for a while, and made sure that Xue Yan didn't mention it.

"Shouldn't be."

Concubine Zhen's delicate willow eyebrows frowned.Because Xue Wangshi is her distant cousin, she even chatted with Xue Wangshi for a while.The Wang family of Xue did mention that it was Xue Yan's idea to send the concubine into Prince Rong's mansion as a concubine, how could Xue Yan not mention it to Yang'er.

"Mother and concubine, it must not be Xue Wang's own intention. As far as the son knows, Xue Yan dotes on his second wife very much. Instead of having three sons and a daughter, the eldest son and eldest daughter are all born of the second wife. The eldest daughter is even more Xue Yan's favorite jewel, Xue Yan may not be willing."

People around Prince Rong have already found out about Xue Yan and told Prince Rong.It's just that Xue Yan's eldest son and eldest daughter are not well-known, and Prince Rong doesn't know about it.

"It's not impossible."

Concubine Zhen said that she also suspected that it was Wang Xiuyao herself.

"However, if the Xue family sends their daughter to the son's residence, it will be a good thing for the son."

The Xue family belonged to him, and the Xue family had a lot of money. If the Xue family was willing to send their daughter to his house, he would have no objection.It's just that there are more women who open their mouths, and it's not that he can't afford the majestic Prince Rong's mansion.And if Xue Yan's favorite jewel enters his residence, wouldn't Xue Yan's filial piety be more active in the future.

What he wants to do is big things, and the more money he has, the better.

Thinking about it, Prince Rong thought it was good, and he had the idea of ​​Xue Yan's eldest daughter in his heart.

"If Yang'er wants it, my concubine will ask Xue Wang to send the eldest daughter of Xue Yan tomorrow, and you can just keep her by your side to serve. I heard that Xue Wang said that Xue Yan's eldest daughter is very beautiful, and it would not be a grievance to stay and serve me." My son."

Concubine Zhen's casual and indifferent tone seemed to be saying something unimportant.

Concubine Zhen has doted on the harem for many years, and the mother and son are rich and wealthy. They are used to being aloof and have long developed a domineering habit. They will do anything to get what they want.

"Then there will be Concubine Lao."

Prince Rong took it for granted.It would be better if the concubine mother came forward.

"Then it's settled."

Just as the mother and son had made an agreement, someone from the palace outside came in to spread the word, saying that someone close to Prince Rong asked to see something and report something.Prince Rong asked someone to come in.

"What's the matter?"

"Go back to the prince, there is news from Xiyuan."

"Xi Yuan. Oh, what's the matter with fourth child?"

Prince Rong looked indifferent.Prince Rong looked down on Prince Kang whose birth mother was a court lady, of course it was also because Prince Kang's mother and child were not favored.There was no respect in his tone when he mentioned Prince Kang.

"Go back to the prince, there is news from Xiyuan that Prince Kang has accepted a concubine today."

"Concubine Nashu?" Hearing this, Prince Rong became curious.

"Isn't the fourth child not a womanizer? She actually accepts a concubine at this time. Whose girl is it that makes the fourth child fall in love with him?"

"Returning to the prince, she is the daughter of the royal merchant Xue's family, the eldest daughter of Xue Yan, the head of the Xue family."

Bang.

Prince Rong put the teacup heavily on the coffee table, and asked angrily: "What did you say? Who is the fourth son, please tell me clearly."

"Back to the lord, this morning Xiyuan's side concubine Li sent someone to the Xue family to pick up the eldest daughter of the Xue family to Xiyuan. In the afternoon, there was news from Xiyuan that Prince Kang accepted Xue as his concubine."

A prince who wants to marry a main concubine and accept a side concubine must ask for the permission of the sage, and concubines under the side concubine do not need to go through the sage.

"Well, you old four, how dare you rob my king's person."

Prince Rong was furious and swept the teacup on the coffee table to the ground, and Concubine Zhen was also very angry.

"What a prince Kang, the good son raised by Concubine De, now he dares to snatch the head of my son. It's too deceitful!"

The news spread that Prince Kang accepted the daughter of the imperial merchant Xue's parents as concubines, and the people around Prince Kang couldn't help but worry.

"My lord, the Xue family has always belonged to Prince Rong, and now you have accepted the daughter of Xue's family as concubine, so you have offended Prince Rong." Prince Kang's staff were very worried.

"My lord, is it worthwhile to offend Prince Rong for Xue's daughter at this time?"

The staff did not finish the last words.

"Xue is worth it." Prince Kang said firmly.

The method of preventing smallpox alone is worth it, let alone the grain seeds that can yield thousands of catties per mu that can save all people in the world.These are all priceless treasures, priceless treasures brought by Mrs. Xue.

Hearing such a firm statement from Prince Kang, the aides were even more worried, worrying that Prince Kang was bewitched by beauty.

Prince Kang smiled and handed a piece of paper to the staff.

"Ming Yu doesn't have to worry, this king is ready."

"My lord, is this?"

The staff member named Ming Yu took a hasty glance, then grabbed the paper with trembling hands and looked at it quickly and in detail.

"What Xue brought here, does Ming Yu think it's worth it now?"

"It's worth it." Ming Yu stood up excitedly: "It's so worth it. With this kind of merit that has benefited the world, even the most favored Prince Rong would not dare to do anything."

Prince Kang also nodded, and he felt the same way.If it wasn't worth it, he would easily agree to Jiang's request.

"My lord, has the method mentioned above been verified? Do you want to report it to His Majesty?"

"The king has already arranged for someone to verify it. As for the report to the saint, there is no rush, and the report will be reported to the saint after the verification result is obtained."

Prince Kang was not in a hurry to report to the saint, he waited to see Lao Jiuna's reaction before making a decision.It's better for Lao Jiu to jump over the wall in a hurry, so that he can get more handles on Lao Jiu.

After calming down, Ming Yu couldn't help being suspicious again.

"It's just my lord, this Xue family has always belonged to Prince Rong, since there is this thing, why not give it to Prince Rong, and Prince Rong will present it?"

If the Xue family gave this thing to Prince Rong, Prince Rong would be able to make great contributions, and it would not be impossible for the Xue family to find an official position for the Xue family with this contribution.

"Ming Yu, you don't know something. This thing was offered by Mrs. Xue, but it's not Xue Yan's."

To blame is to blame only Xue Yan for wanting to give his daughter to Lao Jiu.Jiang Shi is not optimistic about Lao Jiu, but Xue Yan listened to the instigation of the main room and wanted to send his daughter to Lao Jiu's house. If Xue Yan hadn't angered Jiang Shi, and Jiang Shi loved his daughter and liked him, how could he have picked up such a bargain? Woolen cloth.

But this Jiang family has a good eye.

Specifically who it belonged to, Prince Kang did not tell the counselor Ming Yu.

But it reminded Prince Kang of what Baoying had mentioned before.

He accepted the Xue family as his concubine, and it was not only him who offended Lao Jiu, but also the Xue family.Jiang is willing to offer priceless treasures for her daughter, but I don't know if there are other things.Regardless of whether the Xue family is related to him now, one or two must be protected.

After dismissing the counselor Ming Yu, Prince Kang called Qin Chi and told him, "Send someone to watch over the Xue family, and report immediately if there is anything to do."

"Yes, my lord."

After Qin Chi left, Prince Kang sat alone in the study, thinking deeply.

The fight between him and Lao Jiu is inevitable.

Jiang Wanyin didn't know what Prince Kang and Prince Rong were thinking.

Because Xue Yan was invited back in the morning, Jiang Wanyin had already learned from Xue Yan that Xue Yan and Wang Xiuyao had not been summoned by Concubine Zhen's mother. It's about Baoying.

So when she found out that idiot Wang Xiuyao had mentioned the matter of Baoying in front of Concubine Zhen regardless of Xue Yan's instructions, Jiang Wanyin hated Wang Xiuyao to death.

Concubine Zhen's mother and son's vengeful temperament, no one knows better than Jiang Wanyin.Knowing that Wang Xiuyao was doing stupid things, Jiang Wanyin didn't have anything to worry about. She was only worried about her three sons, especially Xue Hong who was still in the provincial examination.

If something unexpected happened to Liang Hong'er, she would never spare Wang Xiuyao.

Before dawn the next day, Jiang Wanyin was worried about her son, so she took someone to the Gong Yuan to pick up Xue Hong in person.
