Lin's Aunt in the Red Chamber

"My lord!" Xue Baochai looked at Shui Rong who hadn't returned home for a long time, with a habitual smile on his face, and bowed.

Shui Rong curled his lips and didn't respond. He sat on the chair alone, rubbed his forehead, and asked, "Is the princess still making trouble?"

Xue Baochai was used to him always being like this, the smile on his face remained the same, and he said softly: "If you go back to the prince, the empress will feel unhappy, and it is inevitable that she will be a little..."

"Okay!" Shui Rong interrupted Xue Baochai, and said impatiently: "Are you fake or not? You put on a fake face all day long, and this king doesn't understand. I have never treated you badly. After all, are you a dead person?" Who is the look for? You obviously don't like the princess, but you still speak for her, don't you think you are special?"

Xue Baochai turned pale and opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word for a long time.She also didn't understand, at some point, it became like this between them.

Seeing her appearance, Shui Rong stood up abruptly, and then said with a sneer: "That's all! This king shouldn't have any expectations of you. You have nothing else in your mind except power. In the past, you just became this king." Blind, lost!"

"Since you are going to be your side concubine, and your mother has asked you to be housekeeper, next month, the king will marry the third lady of Wang Hanlin's family as a side concubine, you, a virtuous and virtuous side concubine Xue, remember to take good care of this king! "

After leaving these words, Shui Rong strode away, but when he walked out of the yard, he stopped.

The immature and resolute face of Xue Baochai when he was young flashed through his mind. At that time, when the grandson was born, the emperor and the emperor were overjoyed, and the people also rejoiced. , because the grandson, the emperor and the emperor did not speak, the matter is a foregone conclusion.

At that time, Xue Baochai, who was crying bitterly holding her father's tablet in the forest of the Western Mountains, was still a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old. She cried that day: "Daddy, the prince does not choose a concubine. How to avenge you? Daddy, Daddy, tell me, what should my daughter do? How can I avenge you and revive the Xue family?"

Those cries made Shui Rong feel depressed. He knew that Xue Baochai, his mother and concubine had mentioned it many times in front of him. Somewhat bad, but a top-notch girl.

In the past, he didn't care. Most of the women that his mother and concubine liked were virtuous and virtuous, as if they were carved out of the same mold. Getting along with such people is the most boring. Although his concubine is a fool, every time he looks at her It's funny to be silly.

Although it was Prince Yi who took advantage of his father's mistakes and threatened the illegitimate daughter of Princess Changning whom he married, at the beginning, Shui Rong planned to have a good time with her. I don't like it, I want to learn from her mother and raise noodles...

Severely beating someone's child in her womb, maybe it was her own, maybe it was someone else's... Allowing her to live and occupy the position of concubine is already the greatest gift.

Even the palace will not have any objections to him because of this.

only!

Just a side concubine...

As a side concubine, he has always wanted to find a stunning beauty who is as talented as the crown princess. Originally, he liked that eloquent little girl from the Lin family, but she couldn't be his side concubine, and he didn't want such a lively girl to be wronged.

Before seeing Xue Baochai crying and mourning, Shui Rong's impression of her was that she was talented and beautiful, and nothing else, but seeing her now, she couldn't help feeling pity for her.

Watching her go back after crying and still get along happily with her uncle's family who is actually her enemy, watching her strictly teach her younger brother to become a talent in private, watching her try to protect her brother and mother with her immature shoulders, and support Xue's family... ...Shui Rong knew that his heart was moving.

Since her heart was moved, she didn't refuse her mother's kindness. Originally, after her father died, she could not be a side concubine, but with her persistence, she gave her a grand wedding no less than when she married the princess.

Mrs. Xue doesn't love herself, he cares more about her power, she wants to avenge her father, so she is gentle and considerate to herself, and inquires carefully. Girl, I can't love her so much, I dote on her alone, even disregarding my father's will, intervening in military affairs, making a cover for the prince, and helping her kill him!

He thought that his father was so ugly that Xue would be able to treat himself with peace of mind and sincerity if he had given birth to their child, but he was wrong.

The father was bewitched by beauty, delayed the military plane, and wiped out the Zhijun queen mother's family. Although he erased all the clues and handed over the military power to apologize, he was still uneasy.

He tried his best to pursue Princess Heyu but failed. After Zhijun Wang recovered, his father was worried that the old matter would be exposed, and he was depressed all day long.

Later, as expected, Prince Yi took advantage of this to make himself engaged to a woman named Sang Peiyu whose reputation was ruined and who had been imprisoned in Shuntian Mansion. How could he not agree?

If Mrs. Pei hadn't been really miserable, he wouldn't have locked her up like this. Although Mrs. Xue was a side concubine, she was performing the duties of a concubine in the Beijing Palace.

She is capable and filial, and handles the affairs of the palace well. He is satisfied with this, but...

But Shui Rong closed his eyes, no longer remembering, and strode away, what kind of relationship is there with a person whose mind is full of power and has no feelings?

In her opinion, only progress and power can satisfy her, but for herself... If she wants to live smoothly in this life, she can only abide by her own law, and do not seek each other's way. At the beginning... it was a mistake!

"Your Majesty, the prince is gone!" Ying'er looked at the sad young lady after the prince left, and said softly.

Xue Baochai wiped away tears, took several deep breaths, calmed down, and asked, "What is your son doing?"

"My son... my son, the king of the county took him out in the morning, and he hasn't come back yet." Ying'er said cautiously.

Xue Baochai's face was so ugly that she couldn't help complaining. Isn't it enough to have so many Yingying and Yanyan, and she wants to take away her son?

"Miss... Your Majesty, tell me, what is the prince doing?" Ying'er thought of the two years ago, when the prince and the lady got along so well, the first thing he did when he returned home every day was to come and chat with the lady. Like a person, why did he suddenly change?

What's the matter?Xue Baochai covered her heart, thinking, is it because she hates that she didn't give her heart to him?But I told him that I didn't believe it, so I really have to take it out myself?

He likes Wenhui, so he recites poems with him to fight against him. He likes to have fun, but he just said a few words to make progress, and he is unhappy!

Strange mood all day long.Do you really think you owe him?

My uncle is dead, my brother is useless, my mother has a grudge against my brother, shouldn't I take care of the Xue family's affairs?If Xia's sister-in-law hadn't been on top of her, the sky would have been turned upside down long ago. It's her natal family, her own roots, so there's something wrong with her management?

Didn't stop him from looking for flowers and asking Liu, he didn't like it, and he didn't insist on letting him make progress, so it became a mistake to care about his son?

Xue Baochai didn't understand, since she felt that she had done everything wrong, why did she marry herself?Why did you still love yourself so much in the first place?

The day before King Shui Rong of Beijing County accepted his second concubine, Shui Rong looked at the red color of the courtyard, and rushed into Xue Baochai's room after drinking, and asked her by the collar, "That's what this king has meant for you in the past." Not worth mentioning?"

The red in the courtyard was the promise she made to give her face. Although it was a concubine, it was no different from the main room. Now she chooses to give other women such an honor...

Xue Baochai's neck was caught by the collar, her neck and face were flushed, her feet were off the ground, trying to struggle.

But seeing Shui Rong wishing he could kill him, he let go of the hand that was holding him, and slowly closed his eyes.

Life is too bitter, but she can go anyway, and she is willing.

Seeing her look like this again, Shui Rong showed an ugly smile, let go of her hand, and said, "Xue Baochai, Xue Baochai, at the beginning... at the beginning... this king really regrets, regrets welcoming you in with all kinds of honors, regrets because of your Obsessed with meddling in military affairs, killing Wang Ziteng for you, regretting protecting your good-for-nothing brother, you have no heart..."

"How about the county king wanting a concubine?" Xue Baochai coughed for a while, holding his neck. Seeing that he was about to leave, he knew that if the two of them didn't agree today, there would be no chance in the future. , I was born to pursue profit, doesn't the king know? You said you helped me kill my uncle, but what did you say?"

"It's always wrong for me to do anything. I'm from a lowly background. Every day I live in fear in the mansion. I'm filial and benevolent. I don't dare to offend anyone. It's because of the honor of the county king that I gave birth to Dan'er, so I can sit firmly as a side concubine." For this, the concubine has put in all her efforts, for fear of doing something wrong and losing face to the county king!"

"The concubine's status allows you to advance. You dislike the concubine's lenient management and don't say anything about it? I have hidden worries and suspicions in my body and mind. I'm afraid it's because of the military power of the Beijing Palace in the past, so I don't dare to mention it again!"

"But just like this, even if you discipline Dan'er to study, you will take the child away from the concubine without asking why!"

"You said that the concubine has no heart, so do you have the heart? Don't you say if you have the heart? Concubine... It's the first time I'm married, how do I know what your men are thinking? I can't figure it out. I can only protect myself. There is something wrong with that." Is this wrong?"

……

Shui Rong stopped in her cries, and turned her head to see if she was telling the truth, or if she was acting once.I can't show my abilities, I can only live in a daze, and now I can't even handle the family affairs well, I'm really useless, it's not as good as Jia Baoyu's understanding!

But I can't tell that Xue Baochai is crying heartbroken, just like crying to his father's memorial tablet in the forest!

"Back then, Concubine Hui's family was wiped out, which was inextricably linked to the palace. When the father received the news, he was ready to make a surprise attack from behind to rescue...but there were spies around him, who stabbed the father. I was able to save each other in time...My father has blamed himself and regretted it since then, and after handing over the military power, let me swear that I will not take military power for three generations and not enter the court!" The actual situation is that the father delayed the military situation because of his female sex, but this matter he How can you say it.

Xue Baochai was a little stunned when he heard the words, Concubine Hui's entire family was wiped out... The Supreme Emperor has been hated for many years, and he has said it many times, and even the king of Zhijun was able to survive because of his rebellion... She now understands Shui Rong, indeed Should not enter the court.But do you really want three generations?

"What doubts do you still have?" Shui Rong looked at Xue Baochai, feeling tired and uncomfortable, he let himself go and decided to give her another chance.

"The matter of Wang Ziteng..." Xue Baochai had complicated feelings towards this uncle. He hated him for killing his father, hating him for suppressing Xue's family, so that he could not get married with red makeup, but after he died, did he have a reliable natal family?

Shui Rong closed his eyes, poured himself a glass of water, drank it, and said, "Your father meddled in the affairs of Ping'an Prefecture, and the Xue family contributed to the rebellion of Zhijun King. To be honest, even if the prince can't Do it, your father won't live for a few years. His death is actually a deal between him and Wang Ziteng, and Wang Ziteng can't be blamed. But your father's death is really good for Wang Ziteng. You don't need to know the reason. The beheading thing."

"You want to take revenge. Seeing you contact the old department of the king, the king doesn't want to see you obsessed, so I will help you take revenge." Does Xue Xun deserve to die?Naturally be damned, he is not dead.The whole Xue family was over, so this old guy colluded with Wang Ziteng, and even set up a trick for his daughter.

Xue Baochai shook her head. She never thought that her father's death would be such a willingness. She didn't want to believe it, but she had to believe it.Why do you want to do this?

A side concubine of a county king who has fallen into the palace, a side concubine whose descendants have no future, Xue Baochai couldn't control herself anymore, and buried her head in tears.

"I'll only have you from now on, don't leave me behind!" When Xue Baochai was crying bitterly, her mind was still spinning rapidly, and there was nothing left, so her husband could only hold back, recalling years of experience, and timidly pulled The water-soluble skirt, cried.

Shui Rong sighed. For so many years, he also knew his side concubine. He stretched out his hand to pull her up, hugged her in his arms, and then said softly: "Don't play with me. I have been watching plays for many years, so I can clearly tell whether it is true or not." ! Taking advantage of this king’s interest in you, give this king what he wants, otherwise you will really be doomed.”

Xue Baochai nodded tremblingly, and hugged tightly the only man she could have in the world for the time being.

Because the relationship between Concubine Xue and the king of the county has eased, the matter of marrying the second concubine is not as lively as before. Xue Baochai's obsession with Ling Shuirong feels like returning to the time when she was newly married, so she indulged her and didn't go to see her. New concubine.

For several years in a row, Xue Baochai put all her thoughts on the strategy of Shui Rong. She was already good-looking, talented, witty and clever, so after Princess Pei of Beijing County died of illness, Shui Rong asked her to do a real job. Princess of the county.

On the second day after the decree was issued, an imperial decree from the emperor caused a sensation in the world. The champion Hou Qi Feiang's wife, Lin Shi, fought against the heroes with her sharp mouth, made great achievements for Daqing, and was awarded the title of Bachelor of Lin University.

This is the first woman in the world to occupy a high position since the establishment of the Women's School. Qi Lin's family was famous all over the world and became a model for women today!

Xue Baochai clutched her chest, feeling very sad for some reason. After she went to Lin's house when she was a child, and was taught by Lin Daiyu to be kicked out, she made up her mind that one day she would stand above her and make her look down on herself again.Among women's schools, she and Lin Daiyu are on par with each other.

When she got married, she ignored her aunt's begging and chose to be the side concubine of the king of the county instead of marrying the worthless Jia Baoyu.Lin Daiyu chose to marry a small captain...but...when did the distance between them become so great...

A man's love is limited, Xue Baochai has already felt that Shui Rong is not as good as before for her, but she needs this love and the identity behind this love. After sighing, she continued to fight with the women in the mansion...

Many years later, when Xue Baochai saw his grandson entering an official position, Xue Baochai looked back at himself, and for some reason suddenly remembered the scholar he met in the Imperial College. Although that one had never been a high-ranking official in his life, he was later boasted by the emperor. It is said that he lived an extremely beautiful life. His wife only gave birth to a daughter, and he did not disappoint her all his life.He raised a smile and closed his eyes!

She doesn't regret her choice, but regrets, she can't say what she regrets, it's just regret...
