Jia Juan of the New Red Mansion

"What, the second wife of Rongguo Mansion is happy?" Jia Juan thought it was his hearing problem, "Isn't she practicing asceticism in the nunnery, why did she have a baby?" Shui Baobao just finished feeding , Xiaolian lay on Shuifang's shoulder and hiccupped, Jia Juan took the baby from Shuifang's arms and patted the baby on the back.

After patting for a while, the baby stopped hiccupping and squinted his eyes, and seemed to want to sleep again.Jia Juan carefully put him on his lap, covered him with a small quilt, and wiped the drool from the corners of his mouth while patting him.

Shui Fang poked Shui Baobao's chubby hand, "Eat and sleep, and sleep and eat, this child is easy to raise. Look at him, he is so fat. Don't be like the fat boy of Dongping Wang's family in the future." Jia Juan couldn't help laughing at the little grandson of Wang's family in Dongping. At the palace banquet a few days ago, King Dongping took his four-year-old grandson with him.

As soon as everyone saw his little grandson, they all fell in love with him. He has a round head, big round eyes, a fat baby's face that is as red as rouge, and his little mouth is red and pouting, and his little hands are pulling King Dongping's clothes were filled with displeasure.

The female relatives present were full of motherhood, their eyes were green, if it wasn't for the fact that the emperor and the queen mother were sitting on it, they would have rushed over to hold the child.Look how happy this child is, just like the golden boy sitting in front of the Bodhisattva.

The young master was probably frightened by the scorching gazes of the crowd, and ran behind King Dongping to hide half of his body, poked his round head out to look around, and muttered something in his small mouth, his voice was like a mosquito, and no one listened clear.

I saw King Dongping lowered his head and exchanged a few words with him, then laughed and rubbed his little grandson's head, grabbed his collar and lifted him to the front, "Let the emperor and the queen mother laugh, this child is rare Seeing so many people, I have never seen anything in the world, so I am very petty."

The little boy seemed to understand what grandpa was saying about him, he raised his face and hummed twice, then turned his head away as if he didn't pay attention to him.King Dongping was so anxious that he squatted down and hurriedly apologized to his grandson.After coaxing for a long time, the little grandson showed a smile and pulled Dongping Wang's long beard, and hummed twice, meaning, see if you dare to speak ill of me in the future.

Everyone watched it interestingly, and an old minister who was familiar with King Dongping joked, "You are a victorious general who has fought in the battlefield, and now you have met your opponent." King Dongping smiled awkwardly, and hugged his little grandson in his ear. While saying a few words softly, the little grandson suddenly smiled.

King Dongping has been stationed in Eastern Xinjiang all year round. The emperor thought that it would be difficult for him to stay alone in a barren land in his old age, so he was relieved of the post of Generalissimo of Eastern Xinjiang and let him return to the capital to enjoy his old age.

His subordinates complained, blaming the emperor for wanting to withdraw the military power of King Dongping so that he could arrange his cronies, and even more bold and extreme generals urged King Dongping to rebel, and King Dongping chopped off the heads of several leaders on the spot after being noticed. When returning to Beijing to express his sincerity, he presented the box containing the head of the traitor to the emperor upward.

When the two eunuchs opened the box, a smell of rotting meat dissipated, so disgusting that they almost vomited out their morning meal.A few older senior ministers were frightened, and several civil servants had never seen such a bloody thing, so they fainted in disappointment.The rest of the ministers either pretended to be calm, or were already frightened.

The emperor frowned and looked around, except for the civil and military officers of the Manchu Dynasty who were not surprised by the dead man's head and did not change their face, the other courtiers were useless.It's no wonder that the former dynasty's emphasis on military officials over civilian officials seems to be reasonable.

What makes the emperor most dissatisfied is that his sons are not up to date, and the prince did not go to court today because of illness, so he doesn't mention it here.

As soon as the wooden box was opened, the second prince was the first to rush to the corner to spit out his breakfast, which was quite unrespectable for a royal family.With his current prospects, his mother and concubine wanted to find a good job for him.Pull it down, make him a county king in a few days, and send him to the fief to enjoy wealth and honor, so as not to keep him in Beijing and be used by others without knowing it.

After seeing the heads clearly, the third prince turned pale, shook his body a few times, and then pretended to be calm and whispered to King Bei Jing next to him.If the spies hadn't investigated the details of these traitors long ago, seeing his unnatural reaction, they would have misunderstood that he had something to do with this matter.

The fourth prince stood there motionless, covering his nose and mouth tightly with his hands, and kept vomiting.The third prince standing in front of him saw the movement of the fourth prince out of the corner of his eye, and hurriedly took a step to the left, for fear that the fourth prince could not help but vomit on himself.

The rest of the princes couldn't get better, they vomited, endured, and fainted, none of them could survive the big scene.The emperor waved his hand, and the four well-trained guards carried away the wooden box.With another wave of his hand, the chief eunuch took up a volume of imperial decree from the dragon case, and read the imperial decree loudly.

The meaning of the imperial decree is nothing more than mentioning the illustrious military exploits of King Dongping according to the time list of the war, praising King Dongping's heroic deeds and recognizing his talent as a general.Hearing the long and long line, the blood of the courtiers, especially the courtiers of the main combat faction, clenched their fists excitedly and almost shouted to start the war.

Then he sealed King Dongping's idle position without real power, and rewarded several large boxes of gold, silver and jewelry.To reward King Dongping for his hard work in Eastern Xinjiang, and hold a banquet in the palace to welcome King Dongping.In this way, the king of Dongping, who had 30 soldiers and horses in his hand, was disarmed and returned to the fields, and went home to enjoy the blessings of Sun Xiangqing.

Unexpectedly, this big move was resolved calmly, and there was no disturbance in the court, just like the usual transfer of officials, without any setbacks.Of course, it would have been smoother without those bloody heads.

It is unbelievable that the mutiny that just happened in the Dongjiang camp was easily put down without a single soldier, and it was the king of Dongping who personally chopped off the head of his favorite general.

The emperor was merciful, and he spared the family members of these rebel generals, but within five generations, they were disqualified from civil and military examinations.In fact, this kind of punishment is worse than death for the family of officials.

It is said that it was King Dongping who interceded for them in the Holy Majesty, and the emperor reissued it for the sake of King Dongping.The weeds will not stop rooting, and there will be endless troubles. King Dongping is not afraid that their descendants will come to him for revenge.

King Dongping returned to Beijing this time with the intention of settling down in the capital, so he disbanded all the servants in the Dongjiang Palace who were unwilling to leave their hometowns, and took away only a few confidantes and a dozen or so homeless servants.

Some servants are greedy for wealth and honor, and those who don't want to go home to endure hardships and farm, have to follow them back to Beijing.After Dongping Wang found out the reason, he sent them a two-month monthly payment to drive them away. Could it be that the palace in the capital still lacks servants to serve them.Although these servants were reluctant, but with money in their hands, they no longer lingered.Besides, they know how powerful King Dongping is, who would dare to provoke him.

King Dongping is a rough man, and he is not very keen on the affairs of men and women. He spends most of his time discussing the art of war with his colleagues.There were even rumors at one time that he, the king of Dongping, loved masculinity and was not close to women.It wasn't until he married an orphan princess as his concubine that the rumors were self-defeating.

Some people who are not afraid of death are not reconciled to saying that King Dongping is covering up the facts, which made King Dongping very angry. At that time, the young and aggressive brought someone to the door and beat the other party, so that the other party could not get up in bed for three months , This is the only way to relieve hatred and dispel anger.Probably to prove the ability of her lord, Princess Dongping generously picked a few beautiful concubines for King Dongping. Although King Dongping felt awkward, he accepted all the beauties.

Princess Dongping gets along with several beautiful concubines very harmoniously. They drink tea and gossip together every day, or embroider flowers around the table. It's actually not terrible.

These women's bellies are also upbeat, and they have all conceived children one after another.When King Dongping fought in Dongjiang, he already had three sons and two daughters under his knees, which made Prince Beijing very envious and jealous.

After the war, he stayed in Dongjiang to garrison. Princess Dongping sent him two beautiful concubines, and also sent the third concubine to Dongjiang to serve him.So, after the three sons and two daughters, he added two more sons and three daughters, and they were perfect.

When King Dongping sent the children born in Dongjiang back to the capital, Prince Beijing simply said that something was wrong and he would not go to the Dongping Palace. It was serious business to go home and continue to give birth to children.

Concubine Dongping, several old aunts and their children stayed in the palace in the capital, firstly because they were not used to the hard life in Eastern Xinjiang, and secondly because they voluntarily served as hostages so that the emperor could feel at ease.This time Lord Dongping returned to the capital, they were very happy, and brought a whole family to stand outside the second gate to welcome King Dongping.

As soon as King Dongping saw the dark group of people, his complicated mood when he returned to Beijing was swept away, and his surprise was replaced by surprise when so many people were added to the mansion.He didn't even think about it, he was perfect and had reached the age of getting married, so the population in the mansion would naturally increase.

Being away all year round, King Dongping can't even remember his own perfect appearance, let alone his dozen or so grandsons, granddaughters, grandchildren, and granddaughters.He couldn't even pronounce the names of his grandchildren, counting the heads of his grandchildren, he couldn't help feeling that his family's heirs were rich.

According to Wang Hao, there are several children who are out of town. Hearing that Dong Wang is going back to Beijing, he rushed back overnight. Only the youngest son will arrive after a day or two. He blames his children for messing around. But my heart is flattered.

His youngest son was sent to be a small county magistrate in the southernmost part of the country. He drove non-stop for three days and three nights, exhausted five horses, and finally arrived at the capital. He knew that King Dongping had entered the capital, and he missed King Dongping's return. The lively scene at that time was very regrettable.

He was also a martial artist, and he was honed by his father in Dongjiang for a while when he was a child.Although he is a civil servant now, he has not changed his habit of practicing martial arts all year round, and his body is stronger than a weak civil servant.As soon as he entered the door, he didn't feel tired except that he was thirsty, and he still had the energy to find a few brothers to learn martial arts.

However, his sweet wife and weak son were tortured beyond human form after days of running around, especially his beautiful wife, a typical lady from the south, who had never suffered such hardships, and didn't even have the strength to get off the carriage. A few stronger women got off the carriage half-armed and half-embraced.

She was born in a scholarly family with good tutors, but she didn't even have a firm foothold, so she had to go to salute the princess and other elders, and a few sisters-in-law and aunts-in-law.The second wife who was in charge of welcoming him hurriedly advised her to rest for a while, the princess is kind and doesn't care.

How could the fifth wife dare to make a mistake? After thanking the second sister-in-law for her kindness, she insisted on going to the main room to meet the princess.Kneeling down and saluting, before the princess had time to call her up, she heard a plop, and she fell headfirst to the ground, which shocked everyone present.

The concubine was so frightened that she hurriedly asked Mrs. Fifth to sit aside, and arranged for a doctor to be invited. Although Mrs. Fifth's mother, Aunt Qi, was worried about Mrs. Fifth, she could only be anxious and dare not speak out due to her status.

The little young master who was stupidly staying on the sidelines, children like to see crowded places, at first they thought it was fun, and even clapped their hands and feet, and then called mother a few times, but mother didn't respond.He put away his smile in fear, and saw many adults calling mother, he became more uneasy and threw himself on the fifth wife, mother, mother.

The scream made Wang Hao and others worry for a while, Wang Hao winked at the eldest wife, and the eldest wife understood and asked the maid to take the young master to the garden to play.The little guy is quite vigilant. When he sees a stranger wanting to hold his hand, he stares at the person with puffy round eyes, and puts his hands behind his back so that no one will touch him.

The princess was annoyed and laughed, but the fourth aunt was the quickest thinker, she grabbed a handful of sugar-wrapped peanuts on the table and put them in front of the little boy. Children like sweets, and the fourth aunt also has children at home. Children can't resist the temptation of snacks.

However, the little guy didn't even look at the sugar-wrapped peanuts, and ran to the door in one breath, crying in a waxy child's voice, "Help, dad, there is a kidnapper, someone is bullying mother, want to Sell ​​us both to shameless places." Everyone was dumbfounded, staring dumbfounded at the child standing in the yard screaming vigorously.

The movement here alarmed King Dongping, who was teaching his sons a lesson in the courtyard next door, and the cup in his hand shattered to the ground.The fifth son recognized his own son's voice and lowered his head in shame.His son often asked the housekeeper to take him to the restaurant to listen to books, and when he was only three years old, he learned some messy words and came back.

Once, when I heard a new word, I came to ask my father for advice, Dad, what is a brothel, why is a beautiful sister sold to a brothel?The fifth master's mouth twitched, looking at his son's innocent face, he made up his mind to get rid of his son's love of listening to books.

The son didn't hear the answer from his father, so he went to ask his mother angrily. The mother also had a strange expression, and explained in a perfunctory way that brothels are shameless places.The little man actually memorized this word, and the fifth master deeply reflected on whether there was something wrong with his own education method.

King Dongping thought it was the older grandson in the mansion who was bullying the younger grandson, but after hearing what happened, he clapped his hands and applauded. He felt that there were so many children in the mansion because of this little grandson's temper towards him.He has such courage at a young age, and he will definitely do something when he grows up.

So, he asked the fifth son to keep the grandson in the capital, and he wanted to raise the grandson himself. Although the fifth master and his wife were reluctant to bear the child, they agreed because it was better to stay in the capital than in a small county.After sending away the unsightly fifth son, finally no one would rob him of his little grandson, and he happily brought his little grandson to offer treasures everywhere he went.

King Dongping didn't want to bring his grandson to the banquet in the palace, for fear that he would offend Long Yan by being mischievous.Before going out, he saw his little grandson peeping at the door with teary eyes, and his heart softened.Bringing the little grandson into the palace, he attracted envious looks from many people along the way, and King Dongping's proud beard curled up.

On the way, I met Wen Dinghou and Prince Beijing. Hearing that Wen Dinghou had just given birth to a baby boy, he went up to congratulate him on his precious son. When Wen Dinghou Shuifang saw that it was Dongping King, he quickly returned the gift.Before even three words of gossip, King Dongping picked up his little grandson and kept praising how cute and smart he was.Wen Dinghou's head was full of black lines, no wonder the prince of Beijing would blow his beard and stare when he mentioned King Dongping. Wasn't this intentional to embarrass others?

Seeing the timid look of his little grandson, King Dongping laughed in his heart that it turned out that he was a coward. If he was naughty at home, he would go to the house to expose the roof tiles, but if he entered the palace, he would be honest.The queen mother beckoned her little grandson to sit down beside her, and personally fed him a bite of rice cake. After the little grandson took a bite, he pointed to a bowl of bird's nest porridge on the emperor's table and said, "Grandma, I want Eat this."

King Dongping was so angry that he wanted to spank his ass, why didn't this kid know how to be polite at all, he even offered bird's nest porridge, he really knew how to choose good things, even dare to think about the emperor's things.The emperor smiled, and asked someone to put the bird's nest porridge on the empress dowager's table. He glanced at King Dongping's reaction out of the corner of his eye, and raised the corner of his mouth. With this torturer by his side, King Dongping has no time to socialize with boring people up.

After the little grandson finished eating the bird's nest porridge and ate two pieces of rice cakes, the little grandson became lively after his stomach was full. He climbed onto the emperor's lap and sat down.King Dongping was not even in the mood to drink at the moment, and stared at his little grandson motionlessly, afraid that he would impulsively pull out the emperor's beard, my good grandson, there are precious dragon legs under your buttocks, you can't move around casually.

The emperor teased the child for a while, and then asked someone to take the child back to the queen mother, so that her old man could continue to work hard, "This child is not bad, and he will be promising in the future." It is rare for the emperor to praise a child, and he is still the grandson of King Dongping. Everyone's thoughts Been alive again.

Wen Dinghou held his youngest son in his arms, and said to Jia Juan sourly, "Hmph, let this little fat man steal the limelight from our baby." Originally, Jia Juan didn't plan to bring the baby into the palace. Did he urinate during the banquet, didn't he spoil everyone's appetite for dinner?However, Shui Fang insisted on going with the baby, saying that the queen mother likes children the most, and taking the baby to make the queen mother happy.Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin popped up halfway, and a little chubby prick appeared, can you not be angry?

"Don't always say that people are fat. Children are fat and cute. I just saw that the little grandson of King Dongping is very cute. I hope that when the baby is his age, he will also grow fleshy." Jia Juan said with a smile.
