The Queen Mother of the Red Chamber

In the inner bedroom hall of Changle Palace, there is a large red sandalwood bed carved with dragons and phoenixes.Xiao Rong was lying on this bed looking at the white marble Ruyi hanging from the top of the bed.

"The empress dowager, the empress dowager has come to greet you."

"..."

Xiao Rong stroked the hair on the forehead, looked at the slender hands like water onions, and sighed, hey, who would have known that this body was already of a grand age.

"Wait for Ai's family to get up."

"No." An old nanny who was slightly younger than the current Xiao Rong walked over in a soft voice, and slowly helped Xiao Rong up.

According to the memory left by her previous life, this old nanny was her personal maid. From a young age until now, her predecessor called her "Satisfactory", and the maid next to her called her "Nurse Cui". She is quite kind, of course, later After seeing her ability to handle affairs, Xiao Rong didn't dare to think like that at all.When Xiao Rong started to do it, the maids next to him prepared the toiletries, those who washed their faces, and those who rinsed their mouths. Xiao Rong felt that this would be a professional team in modern times. When Mammy Cui brought Xiao Rong After putting on the last red gold Jingfu Chang Jinfeng hairpin, Xiao Rong put on the postures seen in modern TV dramas, and went to meet his cheap daughter-in-law with all manners.

No matter how noble your status is, as long as you have a mother-in-law above you, you will suffer and suffer. This sentence has been well verified by the queen in front of you.At this time, the queen is wearing a phoenix hairpin and a red robe that sweeps the floor. Her eyes are smiling, dignified and beautiful. She has been waiting for Xiao Rong for an hour. Xiao Rong came to the Hall of Eternal Life to see her home The daughter-in-law looks like this, and I feel a lot of emotion in my heart, this is the real daughter-in-law, looking at where can I find such a submissive daughter-in-law in modern times, Xiao Rong is ashamed of himself.

"The concubine greets the queen mother, and the queen mother is always happy." Seeing Xiao Rong walking in, the queen immediately walked up to meet her, Xiao Rong greeted Ann, and immediately helped Xiao Rong sit on the throne with the red dragon holding the longevity pattern.

Xiao Rong naturally sat down with his daughter-in-law's hand. Seeing the queen's obedient manner, he was quite satisfied. It was a blessing to have such a daughter-in-law.

The queen took a sneak peek at Xiao Rong, seeing Xiao Rong's face beaming with joy, with a kind look on her face, and she felt a lot more relaxed. The empress dowager in front of her came here after going through strong winds and waves, and every time I saw her, I felt extremely nervous , be extremely careful, lest she be upset, not to mention that the majesty is a famous filial son, but that the empress dowager suffered so much for the emperor back then, and as a daughter-in-law, he should be even more filial.

"The Ai family got up a bit late today, the queen should be in a hurry." Xiao Rong really spoke the truth when he said this, as a modern person, he is really not used to not being punctual.

But this bluffed the queen for a while, and immediately leaned down, "The concubine dare not, it is the honor of the concubine to be able to greet the queen mother, how can I wait so fast, I ask the queen mother to learn from me."

Xiao Rong didn't think that his unintentional words would cause the empress to panic so much, he couldn't help feeling helpless, and said with a smile: "You silly boy, get up quickly, the Ai family cares about you, and doesn't have any intention of blaming you. Greetings, the Ai family doesn't know your filial piety. Xinxin, hurry up and help the queen up."

Nanny Cui hurriedly stepped forward to help the queen up, and sat on the soft chair beside her.

The queen sat down and saw that Xiao Rong's face was not unhappy, so she was relieved and said softly: "Mother, the three-year general election is coming, and the emperor has not yet drafted since he ascended the throne. I think this time I want to vote for the emperor. A few Ruyi caring people have come here to ask the queen mother for instruction."

The queen's face was dignified and submissive, without any trace of force, which made Xiao Rong lament once again the generosity of ancient women, "Well, it's up to you to decide such things, Aijia is old and wants to be quiet and quiet , besides, the person who knows the emperor best is you, the married wife. You can handle affairs, and I am at ease. But now there are already several concubines in the harem, so it is not appropriate to add too many people." Xiao Rong worried that too many people would come in , Gong Dou is too powerful, and it disrupts her happy life.

"No, the concubine will remember the mother's edict." The queen nodded slightly.

Xiao Rong picked up the teacup on the case, took a sip, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "How is Concubine Jia?"

This Concubine Jia is Jia Yuanchun.

When Xiao Rong came here that day, after testing it out, he thought it was an empty dynasty, but unexpectedly met Jia Yuanchun, it was like a thunderstorm on the ground.

Xiao Rong had just come here that day, and since he was unfamiliar with the place, he wanted to walk around to get acquainted with his future lair, but it happened that Jia Yuanchun happened to be flying a kite.The kite also happened to hit her on the head.Originally it was nothing, Xiao Rong had a good temper, and punished others if he didn't commit such a trivial matter, but the girl next to Concubine Jia probably was a newcomer, and she was a bit arrogant, seeing Xiao Rong's plain clothes and being alone, she thought it was a The old mother scolded immediately, and even dragged Xiao Rong to Jia Yuanchun, this Xiao Rong couldn't bear it anymore, he was the victim, and he would be punished, what kind of reason is this, Xiao Rong is not afraid, follow along The little maid went to Jia Yuanchun, this Jia Yuanchun had just been promoted to a noble concubine, she was a bit out of touch, before she could see who was coming, she cursed like a dog slave, after seeing Xiao Rong's appearance clearly, The tone couldn't be smooth, and he passed out directly. Of course, the people in the old palace next to him recognized the Queen Mother, and they all knelt down on the ground and called the Queen Mother to forgive their sins. This is a punishment method that often appeared in TV dramas in the past, and Xiao Rong also tried it today.But after coming back later, listening to the reports from the people around him, he also knew the identity of Concubine Jia and remembered her natal family, especially after hearing that she had a younger brother named Baoyu who was born with jade, Xiao Rong was even more sure of himself It was in the dream of the Red Chamber, and he immediately felt that it was bloody, but when he thought of Sister Lin in it, Xiao Rong calmed down, at least he would be able to meet his idol in the future.

"Concubine Jia is thinking about her mistakes behind closed doors, and she is copying the precepts for women and women every day. The emperor also reprimanded her and punished her with three months of confinement."

Offending the empress dowager's respect, such a punishment is still light.Xiao Rong naturally knew that the emperor had no affection for Jia Yuanchun, but because of Prince Teng behind her.

"Well, that's good. She has been promoted from a female official to a noble concubine. It is inevitable that she doesn't know how to restrain herself. At the beginning, she saw that the emperor liked it, so the Ai family didn't stop her. Anyway, her natal family is also a duke's mansion, and her ancestors are also meritorious ministers. Now it seems that this temper really needs to be tempered, Queen, you will have to worry more in the future."

"The concubine must be well controlled, please rest assured, the queen mother."

"Well, the Ai family is also exhausted. Queen, you can manage the harem, so go back earlier."

"No, my concubine will leave." With the support of her personal maid, the queen slowly retreated to the door, and then turned around to go out. At this time, Xiao Rong also felt a lot more relaxed. If it wasn't for the fact that he liked to watch ancient costume movies before, he really couldn't handle it. , This bitch is really tiring.

Now that Jia Yuanchun has just been made a noble concubine, according to the development of the plot, Lin Ruhai is about to die of illness, and sister Lin is about to become an orphan girl bullied by everyone.Thinking of those shameless members of Jia's family who greedily greedy sister Lin's property, and scolding sister Lin for free food and lodging, I feel very angry.Now there is finally a chance to destroy the bad intentions of their family. Of course, Xiao Rong will not sit idly by. The first task now is to quickly find a way to help Sister Lin keep her property and make a dowry in the future. Although she has herself to support Sister Lin now, no Worrying that she won't marry well in the future, but the girl's dowry is still not too small, no matter how cheap it can be, that family is shameless.Thinking of this, Xiao Rong thought of his cheap son. As an old lady in the harem, he didn't have much access to outside things. If he wanted to help Sister Lin, he still had to rely on this son.

"Satisfactory, pass on the decree of the Ai family, so that the emperor will come to the Ai family's palace and say that the Ai family has something to discuss."

"No." After Yixin heard the order, she went out immediately without saying a word, Xiao Rong was very satisfied with this, having such a capable assistant by her side saved a lot of trouble.

So Xiao Rong drank tea and ate snacks while waiting for the emperor to arrive, but the emperor acted quite quickly when he heard that his wife wanted to see him, so he came over after changing into casual clothes, Xiao Rong listened to the report from the person at the door , immediately sat up straight, wiped the crumbs from his mouth, and put on the posture of the empress dowager,

"Son, please greet the queen mother." Xiao Rong took advantage of the emperor's coming in to look at him carefully, and saw that he was dressed in bright yellow dragon pattern clothes, wearing a bright gold dragon crown, his facial features were resolute, sharp-edged, and he was a bit like a prince. In the same way, the most important thing is that no one else can imitate the aura of an emperor. The summary is that he is a middle-aged handsome guy. Xiao Rong is quite satisfied with his son, and he is not a fat-headed one after all.

"Your majesty has worked hard, and you still have to take time to see me, an old lady. I really shouldn't be sorry."

"It's embarrassing for the mother to say that. Since ancient times, it is only natural for a son to be filial to his mother."

"Well, if all the people in the world are as filial as the emperor, why worry? Aijia's mother is really gratified. Think about it. If your father is still here, you will definitely be happy for the emperor's filial piety." What Rong said is true or false, if the old emperor is still there, it will be difficult for her son to become an emperor improperly, but in order to make her son value her more, she still has to say these scenes.

When the emperor saw Xiao Rong mentioning the former emperor, he hurriedly expressed his opinion: "Empress mother, although the emperor father is no longer here, the sons and servants will definitely be filial to you. "

"The emperor's filial piety and Aijia naturally won't doubt it. Speaking of which, there are fewer and fewer veterans who have gone through the two dynasties. Aijia remembers that Lin Ruhai, a prostitute, has been in Gusu before. He heard that he is very clean as an official. , what is rare is that after two dynasties, it is not easy for these veterans."

Hearing this, the emperor was also a little moved, "Yeah, it's rare for them to be loyal to the country all their lives. Speaking of Lin Ruhai, I just got the news a few days ago, and I'm afraid it won't last for a few days. Following the incense."

Xiao Rong said sternly, "Emperor, I heard that the Ai family has a daughter. I heard that she is well-educated and reasonable, and she is very likable. The Lin Qing family has dedicated their lives to the court. Although there is no son to inherit their ambitions, they can't treat their daughter slowly. You can’t let others bully you.”

The emperor smiled and said: "The queen mother is kind, but the Yue family of the Lin family belongs to the Rongguo Mansion in Kyoto, and there will be no shortage of people to take care of them in the future."

It is because of that group of wolves, tigers and leopards that it is even more worrying.Xiao Rong failed to say that, and only said: "It's just that Lin Qing's family has gone, and only this one daughter has no one to take care of the funeral. She will be bullied. The emperor should be sympathetic to the old minister and take care of others. What happens after your death can be regarded as worthy of these veteran officials left to you by your father."

"What the queen mother said is very true, and my son will let people do it."

"Well, the Ai family has someone to choose. Yi Xin has been with the Ai family for so many years and has never been out of the palace. The Ai family wants to take this opportunity to let her go out and have a look. Besides, Lin Qing's family only has a daughter, so it would be more convenient for her to go. In addition, the emperor can send someone who can do things properly to help out, what does the emperor think?"

Of course, the emperor would not make his old mother unhappy about these trivial matters, and quickly replied, "The queen mother's arrangements are very appropriate, and everything should be done according to the mother's orders."

Seeing that his son didn't refute, Xiao Rong couldn't help sighing that such a good pair of son and daughter-in-law could not be found in modern times with such filial piety, and he felt more and more satisfied with his life.

Seeing the emperor looking like a filial son waiting for him to speak, Xiao Rong said again: "Then Concubine Jia, you don't want to be too fond of Concubine Jia, you are so ignorant of the rules after being named a virtuous concubine. After the confinement is closed this time, I hope she can What has changed. Anyway, the empress is the main palace, so don’t be left out in the cold, and don’t learn from those folks who dote on their concubines and destroy their wives.” Xiao Rong was quite satisfied with his daughter-in-law, so he couldn’t help suppressing Jia. Yuanchun, lift up the queen.

The emperor saw that his mother had even spoken out about doting on his concubine and destroying his wife, so he didn't dare to slack off, and quickly responded: "What the mother said is true, the son must remember it."

"Hey, seeing you like this now, the queen mother really has nothing else to ask for, the hardships she suffered back then were all worth it." Xiao Rong wiped away tears as he spoke.

Seeing Xiao Rong like this, the emperor also remembered those sufferings back then, and thought that the old emperor didn't value him the most, and the queen mother was just a concubine of low birth.Without the help of their ancestral family, their mother and son were oppressed everywhere. The queen mother saved everything for him at that time, and gave those favorite concubines a smile. After they fought to the death and life, they ascended the throne smoothly.Thinking back to when I had a dispute with the second prince, the queen mother knelt down in front of Concubine Zhen's palace for a night in order to save herself, and she insisted on killing the younger sister in her belly.Thinking of this, I vowed even more to let the Queen Mother spend her old age comfortably.

Xiao Rong saw that the play was almost finished, so he just let it go.I also said a few sweet words to the emperor, telling him to pay more attention to his body, and to spend more time with the queen after finishing his political affairs, and then sent him away.Xiao Rong feels that he is really talented to be an old woman now, and he speaks in a set way. I guess this is also related to this body itself. Those emotions just now are not all fake, but they really want to Weeping.According to the memory of this body, it was indeed suffering before.He also thought that he was replaced by him before he enjoyed anything, and he felt quite guilty. He only wanted to pay more attention to her son in the future and make up for it.Thinking about Xiao Rong, he was really tired, so he hurried to take a beauty sleep and apply a mask.
