Red Mansions I am Aunt Xue

An imperial decree, like thunder from the nine heavens, was thrown down among the elite circles in the capital.Many of them were secretly surprised, such as Wang Ziteng, Dean Li, and Lin Ruhai.And the most surprising thing was the third prince who was hit by the pie.

"That's why Cousin Lin has already secretly taken refuge in the Third Prince, and Dean Li has a teacher-student relationship with the Third Prince, so he can be regarded as a person of the Third Prince, so Cousin Lin introduced Qiu'er to Dean Li," Xue Ning said back and forth. Pacing up and down, looking at Xue Qian in disbelief.

"As you think." Xue Qian rubbed his temples, pulled the dizzy Xue Ning to sit beside him, and said, "At the beginning, I only wanted to remind cousin Lin not to participate in it, but I didn't want him Will stand in line later."

He glared at Xue Qian, "What's the matter with Qiu'er? I don't believe that Cousin Lin will just ask you and make his own decision." After a short list of these people, Xue Ning understood many puzzles before.I also understand why Xue Qian lent money to Wang Ziteng, and then transferred to him to do business.Needless to say, these so-called dividends were also taken away by the biggest one.

"Cousin Lin is helpless, and you know where he is. If he doesn't make a choice, what will be waiting for him? And our family and Cousin Lin will be married sooner or later. "Furthermore, after hearing what Xue Ning said, he thought for a long time and took refuge in the Third Prince, even earlier than Cousin Lin.It's just that I can't tell her these things, otherwise I should sleep in the study again, Xue Qian thought with lingering fear.

Xiao Xiao didn't care about these things, she only knew that if she was on the wrong team, the whole family would lose their heads.

"Then you are standing in line with Cousin Lin? Haven't you thought about Qiu'er and me and Pan'er? The master is busy with business today, so I'll ask someone to tidy up the study so that you won't be tired from running back and forth. "

Xue Qian's eyes widened, and he still had to sleep in the study room.If he had known this earlier, he might as well have confessed everything truthfully.

Get angry and get angry, and that's it.The next thing to welcome is another filial piety.Not to mention, when Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Wang passed away, apart from Xue Ning who had to guard for one year, Xue Qian and the others also had to guard the filial piety for nine months.As for next year's test, Xue Qiu will not be allowed to leave.

That's good too, Xiao Ning also wanted to take advantage of this filial piety, let Xue Qiu take good care of his body and rest for a while.He is also very tired after studying and taking exams like this.

Therefore, many people died in the second capital. Even if a new emperor ascends the throne, this year will still be deserted.

Originally, he thought that it was the same in the past few days at the beginning of the year, but unexpectedly two eunuchs came here today.This caused the Xue family, who had not received the imperial edict since Ziwei Sheren left, to be in turmoil for a while.

When Xue's family members arrived, everyone knelt down and waited for the imperial edict to be read.When Xue Qian took over Yizhi, Xue Ning was still in shock.Queen Mother, what does this mean?How come she wants to bring Baochai into the palace so well.

After giving each of the two eunuchs a bulging purse, Xiao Ning said with a smile: "You two father-in-laws, please come in for tea and rest. Let me change my clothes and come back."

The two eunuchs weighed the purses in their hands, and nodded with smiles, "Mrs. Xue just go, the old queen mother should be summoning the wives at this meeting."

Xiao Xiao smiled, and it turns out that money can turn ghosts around.

Regardless of whether the Queen Mother was free or not, Xiao Xiao quickly changed her clothes.Seeing that Baochai had also changed into her clothes, he smiled and pulled her to his side.She was wearing a pink and lotus-colored jacket, and two simple but delicate silver hairpins inlaid with beads on her head. The overall look was plain but elegant.Nodding in satisfaction, although they are keeping their filial piety, they are going to meet the Empress Dowager today, so they can't be completely white, lest they offend the nobleman and commit crimes.

"You don't need to be nervous when you enter the palace this time, it shouldn't be a bad thing." Xue Qian could see the worry in her eyes, and comforted her softly.

Xue Ning pursed her lower lip, "I know, don't worry." Ordinarily, their family was on the right team, and there would be nothing wrong with entering the palace this time.Only Xue Ning, who had never been in the palace, was somewhat worried in her heart.

Now that the queen mother has issued an imperial edict, Xue Ning can't help it.Taking Baochai to the front hall, the two father-in-laws glanced at their mother's attire and their eyes flashed with satisfaction.

"Okay, let's go."

The carriage stopped slowly, and Xiao Xiao opened the curtain and bowed out.Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, he took Baochai's little hand and walked forward slowly with his father-in-law.It took a full cup of tea to arrive at the Empress Dowager's Compassion Palace.

Then the two father-in-laws came forward and whispered a few times to a nanny, and the nanny glanced at Xue Ning, then nodded and walked forward, saying: "I have seen Mrs. Xue and Miss Xue. The queen mother has There is an order, let the old servant lead the two of you to the side hall to wait for a while."

"It's such a laborious mother." Xiao Xiao smiled, and replied neither humble nor overbearing.Following the nanny into the side hall, when there was no one there, he quickly gave her a purse.She smiled and said, "I'm a country woman, and I've never been in the imperial palace. I don't know what the old lady should pay attention to when I see the Queen Mother, so as not to be rude?"

The nanny cleverly took the purse, and it disappeared in her hand in a blink of an eye. She said with a smile, "Mrs. Xue, there is no need to be nervous. Our queen mother is the most kind person. She is especially fond of those who are quiet and courteous." Xue Ning heard the words Nodding and smiling, he gave the purse again.The nanny took it again without politeness, and then said: "I heard that the eldest brother in the family is very talented, and he looks even more talented. Mrs. Xue is really lucky."

Xiaoxue Ning's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "He is a child, he is loved by others, and he has made some achievements just now. He can't be praised by the nanny." After the nanny said this, Xiaoxue Ning finally knew why the queen mother summoned her to enter Gong, the relationship is for Brother Qiu.

At this moment, Xue Ning remembered that Xue Qian had said that Qiu'er's marriage was not up to her, could it be that she had already made a decision at that time?By the way, the third prince is single and weak, so he must use some means to win people's hearts.Now that he is enthroned, he wants no one, no money.If they get married with Qiu'er, they can win over the Xue family, Lin family and Wang family in one fell swoop.

Lin Ruhai is now sitting in Jiangnan, which can help stabilize that side.Wang Ziteng holds the military power in his hands, which can help him win the hearts of the army.And Xue's family is undoubtedly a money bag.Besides, Xue Qiu himself is outstanding in talent, he only needs some training, and he can become a useful courtier in the future.Thinking about it this way, the Xinhuang's abacus was cracking.

Before Xue Ning could think for long, the nanny walked in quickly but gracefully, and said, "Mrs. Xue and Miss Xue come with me. The Empress Dowager will summon you two soon."

"Thank you, Mammy." Inevitably, I gave Mammy another purse.Xiao Ning took Baochai's hand and followed behind, sighing deeply.It is strange that Jia Yuanchun spends money in the palace like running water. According to this situation, even mountains of gold and silver are not enough.

Without looking sideways, she walked slowly into the main hall, and after the mother had reported, Xue Ning hurriedly pulled Baochai to the ground, kowtowed respectfully, and said: "The women pay homage to the empress dowager, all blessings." Baochai He also kowtowed obediently to Xiao Ning and said Wanfu.

"Excuse me, give me a seat!" A majestic voice sounded from the front.The two of Xiao Xiao got up, thanked him again and didn't mention it, then carefully walked to the chair and sat down for a third.

The Empress Dowager saw that although the two were born, they were also well-mannered, a look of satisfaction flashed in her eyes, and she said: "Is this the girl who was born in the twins?"

Baochai hurriedly got up from Xiudun and said, "Baochai has seen the empress dowager." The queen mother looked her up and down, nodded and smiled, and said, "That's right, free of charge. Come, come to Ai's house." Baochai turned her head Glancing at Xue Ning, he walked up to the queen mother with small steps.

Xiao Ning also took advantage of this meeting to quickly glance at the Queen Mother, and saw a graceful woman in her thirties sitting there.I was slightly surprised at the Queen Mother's youth, and then I was attracted by another person.It is Yuanchun who enters the palace every year.I saw her standing beside the queen mother with her head down, more dignified and generous than before.She couldn't help frowning, she wasn't a queen, why should she be dignified.

Looking away, the Queen Mother was hugging Baochai and boasting.After appreciating a lot of things, she returned to Xiaoxiao.Then he said: "Looking at girl Bao, I think of that girl Qingtan."

At this time, the nanny who had been smiling on the side said: "That's right, Princess Qingtan was also so cute and quiet back then. I don't want to become a big girl in the blink of an eye."

"No, but this girl is heartless. It's been a long time, and she hasn't come to see me in the palace." Although the Empress Dowager complained, her tone was extremely doting.

Xue Ning smiled and said nothing from the beginning to the end.She knew that the Empress Dowager summoned her today, fearing that it was Princess Qingtan.

Sure enough, the old mother said: "You are wrong to blame the princess, no, the princess is here to see you today. But you have been busy all the time, she is waiting for you in the side hall right now."

"Really? Then don't call me."

Not long after, from the corner of Xiao Xiao's eyes, she saw a very beautiful girl in a palace dress with moon-white plain makeup and flowers slowly coming.If you take a closer look, you can see that her face is flawless, with curved willow eyebrows, a beautiful nose and cherry lips, and those black eyes that are not smiling, revealing a trace of indifference, such a gentle and elegant girl.

Seeing the admiration in Xue Ning's eyes, Xu Shi's clear sandalwood-like jade cheeks were dyed with a faint blush, making her look more charming than her hair.

The Empress Dowager sat on the head and had a panoramic view of this, and smiled inwardly.He waved to Qingtan: "Come to Ai's house quickly." After saluting, Qingtan sat next to the Empress Dowager.

"But it's been a long time?" The Queen Mother took her hand and asked lovingly.

Qing Tan is the direct second daughter of the Seventh Prince, and her biological mother is the niece of the current Empress Dowager, so she has been favored by the childless Empress Dowager since she was a child.The two of them get along more skillfully and intimately than others.

Qing Tan shook her head slightly, and said softly: "I haven't waited for long." The sweet voice revealed the same gentleness as her appearance.

The queen mother chatted with her for a while, and asked Xiao Xiaoning a few gossips, but Xue Qiu was not mentioned a word in the interim.When she was young, the Empress Dowager rewarded Xue Ning and Baochai with a lot of things, and then let them leave the palace and return home.

"Girl, how do you feel about seeing Mrs. Xue's family?" The queen mother asked Qingtan with a smile.

Qing Tan's eyes that could drip water flashed a touch of shyness, and then nodded lightly.
