Queen's Road in the Red House

Jia Min took the greeting card from Sister Feng and looked at it: "The Zhong family has a heart."

The ones who will come to Rongguo Mansion tomorrow are the eldest son Zhong Zhen and Madam Hou Gui, who correspond to Shi Taijun and Jia She of Rongguo Mansion according to their seniority.

Mrs. Marquis Changyuan is Xin Hongcheng's grandmother, and she is not as precious as others. When she came to Beijing this time, only the Dachang Princess' Mansion paid a visit in person, and the others all asked their daughters-in-law to come forward.

This time at the Rongguo Mansion, Mrs. Hou went out in person to save face.

Sister Feng was a little worried: "Mrs. Hou's place is of course no problem for the old lady to treat guests in person, but the son of the world..."

Jia Lian definitely couldn't ask for leave from the Ministry of Rites. Now Xu Shangshu himself can't wait to split it into two, so whoever asks him for leave will be in a hurry.

But let Jia Amnesty go to entertain the guests, Sister Feng said that there is still a problem.

Jia Min said indifferently: "It's nothing, the Marquis of Changyuan likes your father-in-law like this."

It was only then that Sister Feng slapped her forehead and realized: Yes, the Zhong family is afraid that Xin Hongcheng's wife's family will be strong and talented, so that their mother's family, which is thousands of miles away, will be left out in the cold.

--

Mrs. Hou Guishi has a very sharp temper, and she even has a sense of purge and slaughter in the army when she speaks and does things.

Jia Min was a little surprised, and only after talking about it did he realize that when the Zhong family first arrived in Fujian, they were really helpless: local officials colluded with each other, and in order to earn money for shipping, they even did not hesitate to make deals with sea bandits.Seeing that the Zhong family was going to rectify the navy, they stabbed in the back, and even connived at the local rogues or bandits to go to Changyuanhou's mansion to make trouble, trying to force them away.

Although Mrs. Hou is a woman in the inner house, she can stand up and direct her family Ding Huyuan to guard the door without letting her eyebrows go.

Jia Min couldn't help being awed.

Mrs. Gui sighed: "There are two things that I regret the most in my life. One is pampering my daughter-in-law so much that she can't do what she wants after becoming the first wife of the royal family."

Jia Min was slightly surprised: Why did this suddenly come to the rhythm of heart-to-heart talk?

But I still have to say polite words, after all, this is talking about Empress Xiaoyi, what Gui can say as a mother-in-law, Jia Min can never say, so I just interrupted: "Queen Xiaoyi is gentle, pure and quiet, filial and pure, is it true?" The Supreme Emperor, the old saints have all praised it."

Mrs. Hou shook her head and smiled, and continued: "The second thing is that she was blind when she married the eldest daughter-in-law. She only paid attention to her family status and forgot to check her character carefully, and married a short-sighted and stupid person back."

Jia Min: ...

Why did he go to someone else's house and scold his own wife?

Mrs. Gui said bluntly: "So today I am here to tell Shi Taijun that the last time a few girls from the clan came to the capital, it was all the idea of ​​this ignorant woman, which has completely embarrassed our Zhong family!"

Jia Min suddenly realized that it was to explain this matter.

However, Jia Min was also very angry when the Zhong family sent someone to Beijing quietly and wanted to follow the path of the eldest princess, and directly gave the girl from the Zhong family to Xin Hongcheng as a side concubine and concubine. It took half a year to enter the palace, and getting a concubine in advance, the embarrassing crisis of the concubine being the eldest and the legitimate son being the youngest, was not a trivial matter.

Originally, Jia Min also looked down upon Zhong's behavior in his heart, but after seeing Mrs. Hou's words and deeds today, she realized that Mrs. Shi Zi made her own decisions without telling others.

Jia Min smiled, and built a ladder for Mrs. Gui: "Mrs. Hou is serious. The second Mrs. Zhu brought a few girls to Beijing, and she sometimes visited the eldest princess. As for seeing His Highness the Crown Prince—it is my aunt after all."

Mrs. Gui waved her hand bluntly: "What aunt? I only gave birth to the first concubine, the concubine. She was originally born by my aunt, but because I lost my mother when I was young, I raised her under my knees. Later, in order to find a daughter for her A good husband’s family changed the genealogy and became my first daughter. Hmph, I really raised a white-eyed wolf. I found a good husband’s family for her. I didn’t let her use this to plot against the crown prince and pit Changyuanhou’s mansion. of!"

"As soon as I received such absurd news, Lord Hou and I were so angry that I immediately wrote to Shandong to let the Zhu family take care of it. Once again, this in-law will not have to do it!"

Seeing Mrs. Gui's thoroughness, Jia Min felt relieved, and said with a smile, "Ma'am, you understand, don't talk about the royal family, even people like us are looking forward to the eldest son, right? To put it bluntly, the princess is my concubine." Look at the big picture, the temperament is the most gentle and humble, not the kind of jealous and intolerable, when the time comes in the future, I will naturally take this matter into consideration for His Royal Highness."

Yuanyang snickered at the side: These words were just and fair, and reiterated Daiyu's "virtuous" issue, but when it came to the truth, they didn't promise to say anything accurately.

Jia Min was indeed deliberately speaking first.

Although the Zhong family gave the Rongguo Mansion a lot of face, they were naturally stronger than the Rongguo Mansion in terms of closeness and real power.Jia Min also didn't want to offend Xin Hongcheng's maternal ancestral family, lest Daiyu be difficult to do in the future.

Fearing that Mrs. Gui would propose to send Zhong's daughter into the palace, she made a statement in advance.

Mrs. Gui smiled, and got up to say goodbye in a short while: "We are also serious relatives, Mr. Shi, don't get bored with me, I'll come over in two days."

Not long after Zhong's family had left, Jia Amnesty came over with an ugly expression on his face, Qi Qi Ai said: "Mother, I may have offended, no, it's not offended, it's just that I can't talk to Zhong Shizi, it's a bit embarrassing."

However, he didn't get the expected scolding, but was encouraged by gentle words: "What did you all say?"

Jia She was a little embarrassed.

The eldest son of the Marquis of Changyuan, Zhong Zhen, the chief envoy of Fujian Province, from the second-rank official, the elder brother of the late empress, and the uncle of the crown prince, with a series of titles, Jia She attaches great importance to this meeting.

Not to mention the excellent tea prepared in advance, I also reluctantly took out a few precious fans, the half-person-high carved bamboo root landscape figure ornaments of the previous dynasty and other elegant and precious things, ready to be used to establish topics, as long as the bell After Zhen praised, Jia Amnesty would cut off the love immediately, and Zhong Zhen thanked again, and everyone was happy.

Unexpectedly, Zhong Shizi didn't look at these objects at all, and began to bow his hands when he came up, expressing his great admiration for Ning Rong, and then seriously discussed border affairs with Jia She: "We are all from a family of military generals, so there is no need to engage in such formalities. False style - General Jia's family has a long history, and I happen to have a few military matters that I want to ask you for advice."

First-class general Jia She began to sweat.

Zhong Shizi actually brought a simple version of the map with him, and began to question Jia Amnesty about the unstable boundaries of northern Xinjiang, northwest, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and Fujian. Focusing on Jia Amnesty: "What does General Jia think?"

General Jia: ...

Two moments later, Jia Amnesty had already collapsed, he felt that the person sitting across from him was not the son of the Marquis of Changyuan, but his own father was resurrected, and he was testing himself here.

When Zhong Zhen was finally sent away, Jia Amnesty's footsteps were floating, and then he came to Rongqing Hall to plead guilty.

Jia Min smiled, but instead said a few words of relief, making Jia Amnesty's tortured heart feel the warmth of a spring breeze, and finally left deeply moved.

Seeing Jia Amnesty left, Yuanyang couldn't help laughing.

Jia Min also shook her head: "I think the Zhong family will come again soon, this time they are satisfied."

--

Sure enough, only two days later, Mrs. Gui came to the door again, and this time she was the only one who came by herself. After a few words of greeting, she went straight to the topic: "Don't worry, Shi Taijun, and please don't worry, the princess and concubine. The Zhong family knows how to measure, for Your Highness I will do my best with the empress, and there is no reason to add to the chaos. Today I dare to guarantee you this: if the empress does not ask for it, our family will never send a girl surnamed Zhong to the palace. If someone dares to use it again Marquis Changyuan's reputation, I'll just hit her with a big ear scraper!"

The tone is close and simply different from last time.

Jia Min understood that this was all due to Jia Amnesty.The last time Prince Zhong came to find out Jia She's background, he went back to discuss with his own mother, and found that the female family members of Rongguo Mansion were good, but the man who was the master of the house was really useless.At least not very helpful to the prince.

That being the case, why don't they take a step back and simply show their friendship to the Rongguo Mansion: let the Rongguo Mansion take the way of the women's family members, and they will focus on the road of helping the prince in the court.

Jia Min let her drink tea: "This is from the Crown Princess's house just now, you should try it too - I'm ashamed to say it."

Yuanyang saw that Jia Min began to cover up with a handkerchief and lamented, so she knew that the performance was about to start.

"Now that His Royal Highness has just entered the court, it is time to employ people everywhere. Unexpectedly, our family is full of disasters. The men who support the door of the two households are not in good health and are in vain. After he got an official position, only one grandson is not a figure in the officialdom, so he had to ask favors to let him hang around in the Ministry of Rites." Jia Min looked up at Gui's family and said earnestly: "It's not like your mansion. The chief official of the frontier is also a blood relative of His Highness the Crown Prince, as the saying goes, those who are capable work harder, and everything about the court depends on the family."

Mrs. Gui's smile became more and more sincere.

The two people's eyes met, and they reached a tacit consensus, which is also a sympathy between smart people.

Madam Gui felt relieved, and simply continued to draw closer: "I didn't see the female relatives next to your house when I came back, please come and meet me today."

This means that you can't finish talking when you meet people, and meet people again.

The maids of Rongqing Hall dispatched one after another and invited Mrs. Xing, Wang Xifeng and Yingchun.

Mrs. Gui really liked Wang Xifeng's temperament, she praised her for a while, then held Yingchun's hand and looked at her for a while: "You look good, gentle and quiet."

After giving the gift, he smiled at Mrs. Xing: "Looking at the girl in the house, I think of the new daughter my wife has recognized. She is a great hero! Since the beginning of the dynasty, female officials have been in charge of book history, Or take charge of food and clothing, this is the first official to be admitted to the imperial hospital, and this female official Zhou is the first."

Mrs. Xing laughed: "If Mrs. Hou praises me, I dare not respond, but if she praises my daughter, that is really wonderful. Back then, my daughter-in-law was in danger of getting pregnant, and it was because of her wonderful hand that she was born again. The next smart brother."

The mandarin duck beside him almost got goosebumps.

Mrs. Xing hadn't spoken a few words to Zhou Huangwei before, but it's a skill to call her daughter so affectionately.

In the case of the queen's encounter with a poison, the imperial physician Wu considered his meritorious deeds, and if he could keep the head of the item and the position of the imperial physician's order, he had already burned incense and worshiped Buddha.

While the other two were rewarded for their merits, Dr. Xiao Yin directly changed from a temporary worker to a full-time employee, settled in Tai Hospital, and received a hundred taels of gold at the same time.

Zhou Xuanwei accidentally discovered the poison, and she deserved more credit. The empress dowager personally summoned her to reward and appease her.

He even wanted to marry her to an imperial guard, but Zhou Huangwei declined and asked the Queen Mother to stay in the Imperial Hospital as a doctor.

The empress dowager has never been a rigid person, so she directly agreed that Zhou Xuanwei now has the same official position and salary as the imperial doctor in the imperial hospital, except that she wears a female official uniform in the palace.

It can also be regarded as the first female imperial physician in this dynasty.

Jia Min is also very grateful to Zhou Huangwei - if Empress Yang really can't be rescued, Xin Hongcheng and Daiyu will have to observe mourning for another three years, presumably there will be countless twists and turns.And the matter of Daiyu's fate will definitely be brought up again.

Yuanyang saw that Jia Min was thinking hard and didn't know what to send Zhou Huangwei to express her gratitude, so she suggested, "Why don't you give her the status of a girl from the Rongguo Mansion."

Then he told Jia Min roughly about Fan Yunyi and Zhou Huangwei.

After Jia Min communicated with Zhou Huangwei herself, she immediately called Madam Xing and asked her to recognize her daughter.As for Zhou Huangwei's original family members, they sincerely expressed that they did not have any objections.
