General of the Red Chamber

The long wind and snow in winter finally gradually faded away, leaving only dots of white snow, which slowly melted into water under the sunshine of early spring.There are still bursts of biting cold air in the air.

"Ahem," came a soft coughing sound from the large carved window with only a slight gap exposed.

A woman in Tsing Yi walked past the window holding a porcelain cup. When she heard the sound of coughing, she subconsciously paused, with a look of worry in her eyes.Sighing lightly, Fang continued to walk forward.Gently knocking on the pineapple wooden door.

Daiyu was wearing a light-colored scarf and a long purple smoked gown, and she was sitting on a soft couch.He looked down at a large book in his hand.The round pearl hairpin also exudes a faint halo.

"Knock knock knock" the door was knocked.

Daiyu didn't realize it, and looked at the book in her hand obsessively.It's hard to hide the smile on the corner of your mouth when you see something interesting.

The door was pushed open gently.

The woman in Tsing Yi walked in, looked at Daiyu who was reading the book obsessively, and smiled helplessly.Put down the porcelain cup in your hand.Walking to the window, closing the window tightly, he said with a smile, "Princess, let's have some sweet soup first."

Only then did Daiyu notice the person in the room and raised her head.

"Aunt Qing."

Aunt Qing walked over with a smile, and took down the book in Daiyu's hand, "I've been reading it all afternoon, I should take a good rest."

"There is a little bit more, this "Folk Customs Miscellaneous Tan" tells a lot of interesting things."

""Folk Customs Miscellaneous Tan"?" Daiyu seemed surprised that she would like to read this book.

Daiyu took the book again, flipped through it, and said, "Yuzhi found it for me. It tells the folk customs of various places, and there are many interesting stories."

Hearing that it was brought by Qin Fan, he didn't think it was strange. Thinking about the past, he couldn't help laughing, "The general liked to read these books since he was a child, and sometimes he didn't even eat. Madam even punished him for this matter." .”

Daiyu became interested, "Is Madam Yuzhi's mother? Aunt Qing, can you tell me something about my aunt?" Yuzhi never seemed to mention his mother, even his living father, None mentioned.

"En." Aunt Qing hesitated for a moment, but still nodded lovingly.

"The general actually looks more like a madam." Aunt Qing's eyes began to blur, as if she was lost in memory. "Back then, madam was a well-known iron lady in Luoyang, capable of writing and martial arts. The Qin family took care of everything very well. Others said that madam was a woman. It's just that madam was strong at that time, and she had to do everything by herself. It is inevitable that I have neglected the general. When the general was five years old, he fell from a rockery and was seriously injured. When he finally woke up, he did not speak for a full year. The doctors said it was a brain injury, and it will not heal in the future. Madam My heart was broken, and I almost went blind from crying. Later, my wife simply handed over all matters, big and small, to the master, and concentrated on taking care of the general. God was merciful, and the general finally spoke. Although he was not as lively and naughty as before, he was very smart and well-behaved. Madam never Meddling in the affairs of the Qin family and accompanying the general wholeheartedly, so the general has a very deep affection for his wife."

"What then?"

"Later..." Aunt Qing's expression changed, "Let the general tell you what happened later."

"Aunt Qing?" Daiyu saw that there was something wrong with Aunt Qing's face, as if she was trying to cover up something.

"Princess, let's eat some sweet soup first. In one month, the princess will leave the cabinet. You must take good care of your body."

Just as Daiyu was about to speak, she heard the voice of Zijuan from outside the house. "Princess, the imperial concubine Jia sent someone to invite the princess into the palace."

Since Jia Yuanchun was demoted from the position of noble concubine to concubine, the emperor thought that she was pregnant with a dragon seed and allowed her to continue to wait for childbirth in Fengzao Palace.Everyone in the harem acted according to the wind, without the protection of the family and the favor of the emperor, they could only become a stepping stone for the concubines in the harem.However, when Jia Yuanchun gained power, he did a little too much, and the Rongguo Mansion secretly did some pickling things, which brought him to the forefront of the storm.

Now that the Rongguo Mansion has no official titles and no qualifications to enter the palace, Jia Yuanchun doesn't even have anyone to discuss with. He can't help but think of his honorable princess cousin.If this cousin is willing to help him, it is not impossible to get the glory of the past.Furthermore, when the dragon fetus in his womb was born, he also needed a powerful minister to rely on.Although his uncle Wang Ziteng holds great power in the Beijing army, there are few soldiers in Beijing and they are suppressed by the emperor.It is the cousin-in-law who can really change the situation in the court.After thinking about it like this, I also had an idea in my heart.

The emperor sympathized with Daiyu's frail health, and specially allowed Daiyu to travel in a sedan chair in the palace.

Sitting in a sedan chair carried by six people, Daiyu looked at the palaces and pavilions on both sides, with a hint of gloom in her eyes.Yu Zhi had already heard about the release of the grandfather's family.Now that they have fallen from the clouds to the bottom of the valley, I'm afraid they will not be safe.These days are naturally avoidable.Concubine Jia invited herself into the palace, it was nothing more than those things.I wanted to refute it, but after thinking about it, it would be better to make it clear.

As soon as Daiyu's sedan chair arrived at Fengzao Palace, Concubine Jia led the palace people to wait at the gate of the palace. When she saw Daiyu get off the sedan chair, she hurriedly walked over with her pregnant belly, and took Daiyu's hand affectionately. "My good sister is here."

According to rank, Daiyu is the daughter of the main concubine, and Yuanchun is just the last concubine who can't even be ranked as the fourth concubine.Jia Yuanchun did not salute according to the palace rules, which was already a disgrace.Now it is even more impolite to call sister Daiyu in front of so many people.Daiyu was thinking of the only sliver of affection she had, and she didn't want to lose Yuan Chun's face in front of so many palace people.He just pulled out the hand held by Yuan Chun, and said calmly, "Your Majesty is inconvenient, so let's go to the palace to talk."

After hitting a soft nail, Yuan Chun was a little embarrassed, and gave way to the road ahead, "The princess is absolutely right."

The two walked into the inner hall of Fengzao Palace side by side, followed by the palace people behind.

In order to express affection, Jia Yuanchun asked the palace people to put away some of the decorations, making the inner hall look deserted and desolate.Even Jia Yuanchun himself only wore a light-colored palace dress, with only a single white jade hairpin on his head.This is a far cry from the previous Huaguan Lifu.

Daiyu glanced at the inner hall without any trace, and then sat on the soft chair in the hall with Jia Yuanchun, and Jia Yuanchun sat down next to him.The palace people are busy serving hot tea, melons and fruits.After the arrangements were made, they filed out.Only one or two confidantes are left to accompany them.

Today, because I saw Jia Yuanchun, I left Zijuan in the mansion, and only brought Qin Jian with me.Jia Yuanchun looked at the well-dressed woman standing behind Daiyu, his eyes flickered. "I want to have some personal words with the princess, can this female guard avoid it for a while?"

Daiyu smiled and said, "This is someone close to me, and I don't need to avoid it all the time.

"I see……"

Jia Yuanchun rubbed his stomach subconsciously, and said lovingly, "These days I've been inconvenient, so I couldn't go out. Thinking that you were alone in the princess mansion, I asked you to come and get together. After all, it's our family. Dearest."

Daiyu's eyes fluttered, and she put down the celadon cup in her hand, "Your Majesty is about to give birth, and you must rest well. If it is convenient on weekdays, I will come to see your Majesty."

"That would be great." Yuan Chun looked pleasantly surprised, couldn't help but took Daiyu's hand and said, "Since what happened at home, I haven't seen my mother for a long time, and the sisters at home have no news at all. No..." At this point, Yuan Chun was already in tears, I really felt sorry for him.

Daiyu sighed in her heart, if she didn't make it clear today, I'm afraid there will be more entanglements in the future.After making up her mind, she took out her handkerchief and wiped away the tears from Concubine Jia's face, and said comfortingly, "Mother, concubines in the father's palace, those who can't see their parents are out of ten. Given the grace of God, how can we ask for so much?" Even the Empress Dowager can only see each other during the New Year's Eve. The Empress is pregnant now, so she must be calm for the sake of the fetus in her womb. It is heaven that the things committed by the grandfather's family can achieve such a result It is a great grace. The empress should never worry about it."

Yuan Chun choked up for a moment, then lowered his head again, stroking his stomach. "Princess, if this palace and this child can live in peace, they will naturally serve the emperor wholeheartedly. But... you have also seen the situation of Fengzao Palace. Now that the emperor is no longer favored by the emperor, even those low-ranking concubines The concubine can bully me at will. It's fine if I'm alone, but I feel sorry for this child, who was bullied before he was born..."

"..." Seeing Yuanchun's situation, Daiyu felt helpless.It's not uncommon to see the high and trample the low in the grandfather's residence.What's more, in this deep palace, it is even more vivid.It's just that when Yuanchun gained power, all his actions were domineering.I'm afraid it can't be said who is good and who is not.

"The empress is a concubine, if you have any grievances, you can tell the mother-in-law. The mother-in-law is in charge of the harem, so she will naturally give the empress justice. The empress is a dragon fetus in her womb, how dare those concubines bully her."

"My good sister." Yuan Chun took Daiyu's hand and suddenly choked up and shouted, "Today I only think of you as a good cousin of my aunt's family. Poor sister, you lost your relatives when you were young. My grandparents are so good at taking care of my grandparents, so I am now in such a decent state. The pity that the child in my womb is not as good as my sister. If there is no mother by my side, the grandfather's family will have nothing to rely on. This will be in the future How do you survive in this royal family, little sister, woohoo..."

Qin Jian listened to the bursts of tearful words, and couldn't help complaining in her heart, "This woman is really pretending! It's just that my princess has suffered a lot, so she won't be fooled by such little tricks."

really--

"What does the lady mean?"

Seeing the results, Yuan Chun was overjoyed.Pretending to be apologetic on the surface, "I know you have no power and power, so how can I help me, telling you these things is just to relieve the blockage in my heart."

really?Daiyu knew in her heart that there might be more to come.

Sure enough, I heard Yuan Chun continue, "It would be great if someone with authority could speak well in front of the emperor and take care of our mother and child. It's a pity that there is no such person in the house now."

Daiyu remained calm and took a sip of tea, but the sweet eight-treasure tea had a bitter taste.

"My sister will be blessed in the future. If she is protected by General Qin, she will live happily ever after."

The tea became more and more bitter, Daiyu only felt a trace of something passing in her heart, as if there was nothing left.

Seeing that Daiyu remained calm, Yuan Chun suddenly changed the topic. "However—there are some words, although they are not pleasant, my sister still needs to listen to me."

"Oh——, I don't know what it is?"

"Nowadays in the court, all the big families have women in the palace to serve them. This harem is inseparable from the court. Helping each other is the way to survive. Now General Qin enters the court alone as an official. Looking at It is majestic, but it must make the emperor jealous. If no one in the harem speaks soft words in front of the emperor, General Qin's career in the future may not be so smooth."

When Daiyu heard this, she frowned slightly.Through the tea in his hand, he could see the gloomy look in his eyes.

"If I can still be favored, I can still help out a little bit, but now I can't protect myself. Good cousin, you have to make early plans for General Qin."

The meaning of Jia Fei's words is so clear, and Daiyu is a sensible person.It was already clear in my heart.Not to mention that Yuzhi would not agree to such collusion, even he himself would never agree.

Daddy has been a clean and honest official all his life, and even if he dies, he is worthy of the heaven and the earth.Yuzhi is the good son-in-law he affirms in his heart, if he put Yuzhi into such a situation, he would be a very disloyal and unfilial person.Furthermore, the affairs of the imperial court are always unpredictable, Yu Zhiding has his own arrangements, and it is too dishonorable for the harem to participate in it.It's better not to get involved in such court affairs.

Daiyu said sternly, "My Lady, I haven't left the cabinet yet, so it's too early to say anything about it. Besides, a woman's intervention in the government is really a risk to the world. Her Majesty, don't worry about this matter in the future, so as not to be listened to by someone who cares , only cause trouble."

"This..." Concubine Jia didn't expect that the weak cousin her mother spoke of would have such insight, and she didn't have any countermeasures for a while.Subconsciously stroking his belly, he said with a smile, "I'm also worried. My sister said so, so don't say it in the future. It's just that my sister should come and see me, my cousin, often."

Daiyu smiled lightly, "Daiyu is very grateful for the empress's heart. But I dare not let the empress disturb the fetus in her womb because of Daiyu's affairs. Besides, now she is accepted as a righteous daughter by the mother and empress, and the empress is the father's daughter." The emperor's concubine, married and obeyed her husband, the empress should not call her "sister" in the future, so as not to lose etiquette."

"Sister—— what the princess said is very true, it's because I didn't think carefully, and it will definitely not be like this in the future." Concubine Jia's face darkened immediately, she didn't expect this weak-looking cousin to be so tough.

In order not to make Daiyu's relationship stalemate, Concubine Jia never mentioned the matter of helping in the following conversation.He only talked about some interesting things about his childhood and what he heard about Jia Min from Jia's mother.

When talking about Jia Min, Daiyu felt a little relieved.The atmosphere that follows is also much more natural.The two gossiped about family affairs, and they didn't get up to leave the palace until dusk was approaching.

Watching Daiyu's sedan chair gradually disappear at the palace gate, the handkerchief on Concubine Jia's hand was crumpled into a ball. "You don't even think about nurturing, just like your mother said—a heartless vixen!"

As the setting sun gradually fell, the sedan chair drove through the palace gates and headed for the outer palace gates.Daiyu rubbed her forehead, her beautiful eyes were full of love, she looked a little tired at the moment, and she finally narrowed her beautiful eyes slowly in the swaying of the sedan chair.

After a while, in a light sleep, he vaguely felt the sedan chair stop.Reached?

Daiyu opened her hazy eyes and was about to get out of the sedan chair when she saw a black shadow flashing in front of her eyes.The familiar breath greeted us.Daiyu smiled and closed her eyes again.This man always comes and goes without a trace.

"You can fall asleep like this..." Qin Fan smiled helplessly.He reached out and hugged the beautiful woman who was leaning against the sedan chair.Carefully put it into the big carriage behind him.Qin Jian had already laid out the brocade quilt in the carriage, and only waited for Qin Fan to put Daiyu on it.

Lying on the soft quilt, Daiyu let out a sigh of comfort, turned over and continued to sleep.

"I really can't let you go out alone in the future, what should I do if I fall asleep on the road and catch a cold in such weather?" Regardless of whether Daiyu can hear it, Qin Fan self-consciously 'educates' the sleeping woman .

Covered with a thin blanket, stroked Daiyu's jade forehead.He softly ordered to the outside world, "Slow down the car, don't bump it."

"No." The entourage driving the car outside hurriedly replied.

The car drove slowly, and after a while, the originally hidden place was empty.

Qin Fan looked at Daiyu's delicate face tenderly, and knew that this person was stubborn, but his heart was transparent.The tiger-wolf heart and human-skinned mask of the Jia Mansion, how can they hide from the wise eyes of the person in front of them.It's just that Concubine Jia was so bold that she dared to take her idea.No matter what the result is, it is his heart that can be punished!

The originally tender black eyes were slightly murderous.In the original book, the result of this person is not very good.It's better not to change God's will this time.

"Yuzhi, Leng..." Daiyu groaned in her sleep.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Qin Fan responded gently, and then took off the cloak on his body and covered it on the thin blanket.As long as I'm here, the ups and downs in this world don't want to hurt you even a little bit, even God, it won't work!

In March of Yangchun, the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming.The people finally ushered in a happy day.

Everywhere in the capital was full of festivities, and the common people rushed to the market early as if they were celebrating the New Year.Today is the big day that the people of the whole city are looking forward to—the marriage of General Qin Fan and Princess Ronghua.

Throughout the ages, what the common people love most is the stories about heroes and beauties.It's just that the story is a little less realistic after all.Today, the great general who shakes the world and the legendary princess Ronghua who looks like a fairy have achieved a good story, which arouses the joy of the common people.Carrying the gifts from home one after another, they headed for the General's Mansion, hoping to have the opportunity to send their own blessings.

The author has something to say: I'm sorry, I'm late... The main reason is that these two are about to get married, and the bridal chamber is really difficult.But we understand...

Speaking of portals or something, what is it?
