In a blink of an eye, a few months have passed, Jia Zheng's birthday is coming, and the elder is here, so he can't make a big deal. Jia's mother always loves him very much. First, she discusses with Mrs. Wang to have a few lively tables at home, and then invites extra Some old acquaintances and Qing Ke Xianggong set up a few tables in the outer courtyard, and invited two troupes. When Jia Zheng learned about it, he said: "Mother's arrangement is very good, you just do it."

Mrs. Wang had complicated things in her hands, and she wanted to call Wang Xifeng housekeeper again, but as soon as Wang Xifeng heard her say that, her whole body began to shake, her face was always sallow, and Mrs. Xing tried her best to help shirk it, so she had to give up.She was not willing to lose power, so she had to ask Li Wan to help her.

On this day, Jia Zheng's birthday, people from Ningrong and Rongfu gathered together. Aunt Xue and Jia Min were both invited. Now that Xue's family population is simple, Aunt Xue carried Xiangling everywhere in order to control Xue Pan, and Xiangling also However, she was a big maid, so Jia Min brought Daiyu, because Jia's mother never liked Lin Heng very much, and Jia Zheng was not Lin Heng's real uncle, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min thought about it for a long time, but they didn't let Lin Heng go. , Go to Guozixue to go to school as usual.

In the inner courtyard, Jia Zheng was not there. After everyone came to offer a toast to Mrs. Wang, Fang sat down to eat wine and watch a play. Daiyu came with Jia Min, so she sat alone at the table with Jia Min. Jia Min and Wang Xifeng next to her Talking: "It's so cold today, can you still bear it?" Seeing that Wang Xifeng was almost out of shape, and his hands were a little less fleshy than before, he couldn't help asking and asking with concern.

"Thank you, aunt, for your concern. It's all right now, but my sister seems to be in a slump." Seeing Daiyu's absent-minded and somewhat lazy look, Wang Xifeng finally made a sound.

"No, now that the weather is a little bit colder, I'm a bit lazy, and I'll be fine later." Hearing this, Daiyu squeezed herself quietly before laughing.

"Auntie, the ancestor asked me to toast you." Baoyu came over with a jug in his hand.

Jia Min didn't like Baoyu, so she wanted to give it on the surface, so she drank the glass of wine that Baoyu poured out. Baoyu looked at Daiyu's hesitation, but seeing Jia Min's smile, he didn't dare to make trouble, and turned around again. Go to toast Youshi and the others.

"Brother Bao is still the same." Jia Min sighed.

Wang Xifeng complained unintentionally: "That's right, how old are the people who are going out to toast the old friends and relatives today."

Jia Min glanced at Wang Xifeng unexpectedly, Wang Xifeng seemed to stop talking, and smiled at Jia Min.

Sure enough, after Baoyu paid respects to everyone, Mrs. Wang sent out to serve Jia Zheng. Baoyu frowned and looked at Jiamu. With you! Go!" Baoyu had no choice but to go out with the young man outside the door.

The theater troupe was performing the scene of "The Drunken Concubine", and there was a lot of people outside. Jia's mother asked the people around him what happened?A report came from outside: "Our eldest daughter has been conferred the title of virtuous concubine, and the gentlemen have already gone to thank you!"

"Amitabha!" Jia Mu recited a Buddha, and everyone came to congratulate her and Mrs. Wang. The whole mansion was beaming with joy. Jia Min and Aunt Xue all stood up one after another because Jia Mu and other people with royal orders were going to enter the palace to thank them. , one by one to say goodbye, Jia Mu just nodded and said nothing. Aunt Xue took Xiangling and walked away quickly. Then Jia Min slowly took Daiyu across the screen wall to Yimen. I am extremely puzzled as to why the eldest sister was not named a concubine, but this is no longer her business.

Seeing the smile on Daiyu's face, Jia Min couldn't help but walk more briskly.

When they returned to the mansion, they found that Lin Ruhai had already returned to the inner courtyard, sitting by the fireside waiting for them, drinking tea with a relaxed expression on his face.

Daiyu laughed first and said, "What's the good thing, dad?" After speaking, she sat on the side first, Lin Ruhai smiled without saying a word, and poured a cup for Daiyu.

Jia Min went to change clothes, and it didn't take long before she came out in homely clothes, sat opposite Lin Ruhai, asked Narcissus to change the water, and then asked, "Is there a happy event, master?"

Lin Ruhai said: "I was summoned by His Majesty today, and said that the Zen seat will be held in the spring of tomorrow." As soon as the words came out, Jia Min and Daiyu were startled. This alternation of old and new has always been a big event. Daddy) is not heavy at all, and smiles.

Lin Ruhai comforted the two of them with a smile: "Your Majesty announced his will in front of the Prince today, and not many people know about it." Only then did Jia Min and Daiyu rejoice.

Only then did Lin Ruhai remember to ask them why they came back so early today, because the banquets in Jia's house usually last from morning to night.

Jia Min just sat, Daiyu picked up the newly changed teapot and poured a bowl for Jia Min and Lin Ruhai each, then said: "Then today, big sister Yuanchun is Jinfeng Dexian, and all the old ladies are going to the palace to thank you." Mother and I came back early."

Lin Ruhai was a little helpless: "It's fine to come back, it's so lively over there, we can't just join in."

Jia Min replied: "That's natural. It's a wish to send someone to deliver a ritual gift later. After all, the title of a concubine is a bit detached." He didn’t add any more titles, so why did Yuanchun add an extra word? According to you, His Majesty retired after the spring, so it looks like it’s just an empty title.”

Lin Ruhai nodded: "You just know."

When Lin Heng came home, Lin Ruhai talked to him in the study: "The class will start in the next year, you have to pay more attention, although everything is settled, as a father, I am afraid that there will be chaos."

Lin Heng said solemnly: "Son will definitely work hard!"

Lin Ruhai smiled and stroked his head: "You have always done a good job. I can serve as a father for a few more years, and I can support you for a few more years! The Lin family will depend on you in the future!"

Lin Heng was a little jealous and said, "Yes, father."

The prince returned to the mansion and entered the front yard. Because he was announced to the Qianqing Palace early this morning, those Qing guests did not come in after hearing the news. There was only one eunuch Xia Shouzhong behind him. He walked slowly to the study room and heard the childish Only then did he remember that his children were not too young.

Xia Shouzhong hurried forward and said softly, "Because of the cold weather, His Majesty issued a decree for the gentlemen to give lectures in each residence."

The crown prince watched the three young children shaking their heads while reading from the crack of the door, Xia Shouzhong stepped back silently.

Outside the door, the prince stood for a long time before leaving the outer study.

Thinking of Yingying and Yanyan in the mansion, the prince had a headache, so he went to his living room first and asked Xia Shouzhong to send someone to call the princess over.

The Crown Princess has always been very upright, and when she heard that the Crown Prince came back, she looked for her, and after cleaning up quickly, she brought the two maids over.

Seeing the prince, the princess first went to pay her respects, and then sat on the prince's left hand.

The prince looked at the princess who had been with him for more than ten years, with dignified makeup on her face and wrinkles around her eyes, feeling a little guilty in her heart.

The prince pushed back the others, and said: "Today, the emperor asked me to enter the palace, and made a decree that I will take the Zen seat with me in the spring of next year."

The crown prince's face was moved, and she immediately knelt down and said, "Congratulations, prince!"

The prince helped her up first, let her sit down, and then said after a while of consideration: "Father told me in private that there are always many people in the palace, and the nine concubines of my father have been filled this time. I am afraid that there are too many people in the harem to interfere with you." It’s not easy to manage, I asked the queen mother, the same is true, and the queen mother also said that in our mansion, first let you see which ones should be sealed, and mention them, and after the Zen throne ceremony is over, they will be promoted one by one.”

The princess heard this, covered her mouth and smiled, "Ask me, there are two side concubines, four concubines, eight concubines, and twelve concubines in the mansion. What do you think?"
