The Lady of the Big House in the Red House

Son.Look at my family Zhu'er is married, you should make a marriage for the two children.Otherwise, if you spread the word and let others know, it will be said that you, the stepmother, have treated the child badly. "

You Shi's face turned red and white after being told.

Xu Hui lowered her head and took a sip of her tea, and said, "Let's not interfere with these men's matters. The affairs of the court are very deep, and what you see may not be true. Besides, we are all women and men, how can we Just stop talking about the reasoning behind these things.”

Although Youshi was unwilling, he still nodded slightly.In fact, Jia Zhen didn't mean that at all, but she was envious when she saw the Li family relying on the king of Shunjun to advance step by step.

The chirping of cicadas outside has not stopped, the scorching sun has scorched the plants in the yard, and the sweltering weather makes people reluctant to go out.Xu Hui pushed several invitations, took a sip of iced sour plum juice, and said: "Go and cut the fruit, it's too hot here."

"I've ordered someone to cut it up. My wife is most annoyed by the sweltering heat, why don't you add more ice?" Jin Mian said.

"Alright, I don't know when this hot day will end." It seems that the capital hasn't rained since returning from Dongfu, and the emperor can't stand the hot weather, so he has already sent King Dejun to the Temple of Earth Ask for rain.Xu Hui counted the time silently, "It's been a few days since King Dejun went to the Earth Altar to pray for rain?"

"It's been three days." Jin Mian said, "But looking at the weather, it doesn't mean it's going to rain."

"Just wait." Xu Hui took the round fan and shook it.Although the emperor didn't say it clearly, it was already a signal to order the king of Dejun to pray for rain on his behalf. If Qin Tian hadn't let Qin Tian monitor the time, he wouldn't have let the king of Dejun go to the altar at this time.The King of Shunjun Party has recently been building momentum in the court, and the emperor must be annoyed. "God is planning to rain, it can't just say it will rain, it seems so fake."

"I don't understand what the madam said about the slaves." Jin Mian smiled lightly.

At this time, Tweety came in with a fruit plate, red watermelon, crystal grapes and orange honeydew melon, just looking at it made people appetite.Jia Wan also woke up slowly at this time, and was carried to Xu Hui by the wet nurse.Xu Hui asked for water to be brought, and after twisting the handkerchief to clean Jia Wan's face and hands, the mother and daughter attacked the fruit plate.After taking a bite of the sweet watermelon, Xu Hui said again: "There must be some fruit left in the kitchen, you should go and eat some too, don't be too hot in such a sweltering weather."

"Thank you, madam." Jinmian and Tweety looked at each other and said with a smile.

"My wife is so kind to us." Pianran also said with a smile, "I heard that although the second wife did not withhold the third girl's things in Xikuayuan, she asked someone to reduce the use of ice at Aunt Zhao's place. If it weren't for the second master later It's hot and stuffy at Aunt Zhao's place, and the second wife will not be so quick to make up for it. That's all right, Aunt Zhou is even more pitiful."

During the past year, Aunt Zhou also occasionally recovered, which made Wang very dissatisfied.Aunt Zhao still had a daughter, but Mrs. Wang didn't dare to do anything about it. Aunt Zhao had no sons and no daughters, and Jia Zheng loved her because of her birth. How could Mrs. Wang not be annoyed.Naturally, Zhou Rui's family had winks, and secretly ordered the people below to withhold Aunt Zhou's expenses, and now Aunt Zhou is also sick because of this.

"The second room has a lot of bad things going on, brother Zhu is sick again, the second brother and sister must be upset too." Xu Hui said.

"Isn't it? If the weather continues to be this hot, I'm afraid someone in the mansion will suffer from fever again." Pianran said while fanning Xu Hui and Jia Wan.

"Madam, there is good news from Uncle Zhu today, saying that Grandma Zhu is two months pregnant." Cui'er went out and brought Jia Wan a bowl of ice milk, and reported the news when she came back.

"Yo, this is a happy event." Xu Hui smiled faintly.

"I heard that Grandma Zhu doesn't want to eat or drink these few days. I thought it was just because of the hot weather, but I didn't expect to ask the doctor to see that she is pregnant." Cui'er said, "Now I can finally make the second wife happy. Some."

Li Wan is pregnant, Jia Zhu is afraid it is time.Xu Hui was a little lost in thought, lightly bit a grape, and sighed lightly.

On the second day after Li Wan reported that she was pregnant, the weather started to become gloomy, and it didn't take long for thunder and heavy rain to pour down.It took two full days for the rain to show signs of stopping, which greatly eased the sweltering heat in the capital, and also moistened the farmland in the suburbs of Beijing, so that the crops would not fail due to the drought.

Some people in Beijing began to say that the heavy rain was due to the sincere request of the king of Dejun, and that the king of Dejun worshiped devoutly every day when he prayed for rain at the altar of the earth, so he was so moved by the heaven to send down the nectar. The king of Dejun is really a blessed person .At this time, the emperor's condition also suddenly improved, and he decided to designate An Shi, the second princess of Qianxiang Kingdom, to the King of Dejun as the side concubine, and at the same time, the father of the princess of Garend County was the first-class prince.Before the faction of King Shunjun came up with any idea, the emperor decreed to abdicate and pass the throne to the fifth son of the queen, King Dejun. The new emperor ascended the throne on the ninth day of September.

"The emperor's intention to abdicate came so suddenly that many people in Beijing couldn't react." Xu Hui said to Jia She.

"If King Shunjun hadn't been ambitious and wanted to ascend the throne, the emperor would not have made such a decision." Jia She took a sip of the grape juice, "I heard that Li's family is restless in the northwest, so we need to contact the Northwest General for support. The king of Shunjun is the emperor. The Northwest General was single-handedly promoted by the emperor, so he passed the matter back to the emperor, and the emperor finally made a decision to pass it on to the king of Dejun. Now the concubine Ning in the palace is out of favor, and the tenth son of the emperor she gave It has been taken to the queen to raise."

"I also know about this matter. I didn't expect the Li family to act so boldly, and I didn't even think that my daughter is still in the palace." Xu Hui sighed, "The glory and wealth cover people's eyes, and they don't even want their own daughter and grandson."

"The affairs of the Li family can only be dealt with after the new emperor ascends the throne." Jia She said, "No matter how unwilling the King of Shunjun is, he will be powerless."

"The ears are finally quieter." As soon as the decree of abdication came out, all the noisy voices in Beijing stopped.Those officials who used to be attached to Prince Shun are now trying their best to distance themselves from each other, and the floating atmosphere in Beijing is immediately cleared.Waiting for the successful ascension of King Jiude County in early September, those who used to jump around will try their best to protect themselves, especially the Zhen family.

No.40 four times

No.40 The fourth time Jia Lian got married

When the new emperor came to the throne, he did not pursue the fact that the king of Shunjun formed a clique for private interests at the first time. Instead, he personally sent the emperor and queen mother to the palace on the outskirts of Beijing to live up to their old age.The title of Shunjun King is Prince Zhongshun, and this title was also taken by the Supreme Emperor himself; the title of Dejun King is Prince Rende, the ninth son of the emperor Tu Miao is the king of Cheng'an County, and the tenth son of the emperor is young and has no canonization.He also canonized the empress's virtuous concubine as noble concubine, concubine Yu, concubine Ning, concubine Gong as concubine, nobleman Yi, nobleman Zhao, nobleman Wang, nobleman Han as concubine, and the rest as nobleman.At the same time, Concubine Hejun was named Queen, Concubine Wu was named Concubine Gui, Concubine An was named Concubine Mao, Concubine Yuchi was named Concubine Xi, Concubine Hong was named Concubine Rou, Concubine Yu Shu was named Concubine Xuan, and concubines Dai and Zhang were established as concubines. For Dai Guiren and Zhang Guiren.

"This Concubine Mao is nothing at all. After all, she is the second princess who is the direct relative of the Lord Qianxiang, but Concubine Xi is only the daughter of a scholar from the Sixth Rank Imperial Academy, and she can even confer a concubine with one sentence. It seems that the emperor treats this Concubine Xi very much." I love you very much." After the maiden visited the palace for the first time, Wang said in front of Jia's mother, "It's because the emperor likes it." Yuanchun's appearance and talent are better than that of Concubine Xi. It seems that the next year's draft Sure to be selected.

"That's not necessarily true." Xu Hui flipped the lid of the teacup, raised her eyelids and glanced at Wang, "The main reason why Concubine Xi was able to become a concubine is that she gave birth to the emperor's eldest princess, and she once gave birth to the emperor's eldest princess. The emperor had conceived a prince. Although the prince died young, but after all, he has made some contributions, and this is the reason why the emperor canonized her as Concubine Xi, and respected Concubine Mao as well."

"The pardon of the daughter-in-law makes sense." Mother Jia knew what Wang was thinking, but she thought it was one thing, but it was another. Let's just pay respects to the queen according to the rules, and it is better to ask less about other things. Forgive your daughter-in-law, Brother Rong and Brother Qiang in the East Mansion have started to discuss marriage, you also hurry up and give it to Brother Lian Look at each other."

"My daughter-in-law knows." Jia Lian is already thirteen today, so it's no wonder that Jia's mother is so caring. It's time for Wang Xifeng to be a filial piety, but there is no news that she is coming to Beijing.

Wang curled her lips, of course Yuan Chun and Zhu'er's wife are the most important thing right now, Jia Lian is only 13 years old, why bother to see her so soon, Zhu'er also only discussed marriage when she was fifteen or six years old.Thinking of her niece Wang Xifeng who was far away in Jinling, she recalled a plan she had in mind at the beginning, so she smiled slightly, and planned to send Zhou Rui's family to tell her sister-in-law after returning to her yard.

At this time, Jia Yuanchun also came in to greet her, Xu Hui glanced at her lightly, but found that the little girl was much quieter than before, and she looked more dignified with a slight smile.She clasped her hands holding the handkerchief in front of her body, and she was wearing a lilac-colored dress with light golden lotus patterns, which added a bit of elegance.Since Mammy Xi came to the mansion, Jia Yuanchun seldom came to serve Jiamu except to greet her every day.Jia's mother also knew that she had to practice manners and review poetry and books, and she also understood her behavior.

"Look at Yuanchun becoming more and more like a big girl." Seeing that Jia Yuanchun is getting more and more brilliant now, Xu Hui said with a smile
