[Red Mansions] The Road to Empress Dowager

The Su family angered Mr. Su and expelled him. When Mr. Su found out in prison, he vomited blood and passed out. Mrs. Su thought it was because of her that her husband was so tired that he committed suicide. Mr. Su woke up Seeing that his beloved wife was dead, he had no hope of living and died in prison.

Xing Xiuyan couldn't help sighing, this dispute over the heir apparent was indeed a matter of blood, this family rebelled in Beijing, and Miaoyu's family could be implicated even in Jinling.And Miaoyu's family background is so prominent, it's no wonder that almost no one can catch her eyes. She is proud of her family background, so she feels inferior because she fell from the altar.

She relied on her identity, but in fact she no longer had any identity.Xing Xiuyan didn't expect things to be so complicated. She originally wanted to help Miaoyu, but it involved treason, and the Emperor is still around. It would be unfilial to overthrow the case set by the Emperor. Even if the uncle really didn't care much about the Emperor, he would Impossible to do this.

Xing Xiuyan thought for a while and said, "You two mothers, I'm afraid that I don't have the ability to change the old sage's case and turn the Su family over. However, whether Miaoyu is willing to return to vulgarity, I wonder if she can set up a female household."

Nanny Jiang shook her head and said, "I'm afraid it's difficult. For a girl like her, the affairs of the Su family can't be done. How can she return to the vulgar and establish a household?" Either for the sake of the Su family, or for the sake of getting married, otherwise Now that I am in Buddhism, I don't have to worry about food, and I don't need to set up a household.

This way of admitting that she has a big heart will attract the world's ridicule. Xing Xiuyan doesn't care about the eyes of the world, but although Miaoyu is proficient in Buddhism, she is actually just an ordinary female schoolmaster, and she doesn't care about everything.

When Xing Xiuyan left, Miaoyu locked herself in her room, covered her face and cried, hurting herself, thinking of Xing Xiuyan, she was angry and hated, and felt that even she came to see her jokes.The older she gets, the more presumptuous she becomes. She was so cute and cute when she was a child, she was smart but not vulgar, why did she grow up like this?

She wanted to throw down the embroidery screen that had accompanied her for so many years, and the two little girls embroidered on both sides were still lifelike, but she was reluctant in the end, and she just burst into tears.

……

Two days later, Daiyu, Shi Hui, Shi Zhangshi, Mrs. Xing and others came to Xing's house as guests, and Xing Xiuyan learned that none of Sanchun was selected.Xing Xiuyan doesn't know now that the emperor might have said in order to make her selection more natural, "If there were those who could play the piano before, those who could learn calligraphy and painting should be kept, and those with the same talent don't need to keep more" which had a great influence.

The emperor went to see it on the first day, but didn't watch it on the second day. On the first day, except for Xing Xiuyan, only a few beautiful girls with special backgrounds were retained, and there were no more than [-] people left in one day.Sanchun is on the second day, Jia Yingchun is the second wood, Jia Tanchun has two before, and Jia Xichun is also good at painting. The queen has the right to wipe out this noble family who can threaten her status. up.

In the end, more than two hundred beautiful women were re-elected, and 47 were selected, including women who were waiting to be married to the King of Tibet. The emperor himself should keep about [-] of them.This kind of beautiful girl selected by the general election will have a middle-low status as soon as she enters the palace. It is much more formal than a concubine born in the palace. She can also bring her own maid or nanny and bring some salutes, but she has to undergo inspection.

Both the Lin family and the Shi family sent extremely heavy congratulations, which was something they had expected.Although Mrs. Xing was disappointed that Jia Yingchun was not selected, and she could not be the mother-in-law of the empress, she was even happier when she heard that her niece was selected.

Mrs. Xing is a very calculating person, she has a lot of cleverness, and she is not a bad person. She used to be indifferent, but everyone looked down on her for being indifferent to her.Think about it, if the whole world treats you with indifference and contempt, and requires you to love the world, is it more difficult than letting you go to heaven?

Mrs. Xing is happy that the Xing family will have a concubine.

If the Jia family becomes a concubine, even if she is the aunt, the people around the Jia family will still feel embarrassed. If she has no one to support the glorious event of Jia's concubine, her aunt will not be able to compete with them.

The so-called others are not as good as yourself, now the girl from the Xing family has entered the palace, and the Xing family is her backer, she has nothing to do with the others of the Jia family, and she doesn't have her own daughter, so she can laugh three times at this kind of thing, It's fucking cool.

Mrs. Xing also asked Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng to find a way to arrange a lot of congratulatory ceremonies. Although Wang Xifeng had weighed more than eight months, she also came to congratulate her personally.

Xing Xiuyan has complicated feelings towards Wang Xifeng. Wang Xifeng has done a lot of evil, but she was the person in the Rong Mansion who cared the most for Xing Xiuyan's poverty in the original work. She also took care of Daiyu in the original work.

Those things she committed will be doomed at that time, but seeing that she has not lost a child in this life, Xing Xiuyan can't bear it even more.She is kind-hearted towards ordinary people who offend her, let alone Sister Feng who treats her best in the original book?

The Xing family held a feast, Xing Xiuyan was of course with his daughters Daiyu, Shi Hui and Yingchun, Xing Xiuyan suddenly said: "The most interesting thing is that my cousin is eloquent, but she is outside."

Daiyu said with a smile: "It's not easy. My mother told me that Xuanlian's second sister-in-law is going to see her. Ziyue, why don't you go and announce her to come in for your mother?"

"Yes, Second Miss." Zi Yue smiled and crouched down.

Their sisters are married three times in Taoyuan, but when the sisters are in any family, they will call the other two ladies with different surnames first.

Daiyu is not greedy for other people's things, but likes to be the second lady in the Xing family and the Shi family, and Shi Hui also likes to be the third lady.Of course, Xing Xiuyan won't have much chance to be the eldest lady in the future.

Xing Xiuyan's face flushed red with anger, and said, "Your hoof is on your nose and eyes, isn't it?"

Shi Hui said with a smile: "Second sister, the empress asked the crime, and you still don't admit your mistake and ask for mercy?"

Daiyu smiled and leaned over to "beg for mercy": "Ma'am, please forgive me, this servant will never dare again!" Make fun of the "sister" in her heart.In Daiyu's heart, apart from her father, the elder sister is the closest.

After Daiyu finished speaking, all the girls and maids laughed together, Zijuan, Xueyan, Qingluan, Jinyan, Ziling, Xuejuan, Qingwen, and Jinsha were more exaggerated, leaning forward and backward.

At this moment, Wang Xifeng lifted the curtain and walked in with her waist, and the laughter came at the same time: "It really is that your place is more lively, why don't you call me? I still think I'm a disgusting person!"

Shi Hui helped her to sit down and said: "Cousin sister-in-law, please sit down quickly, it is the empress who is thinking of you!"

Wang Xifeng also laughed out loud when she heard this, and said, "I haven't even congratulated your wife yet!"

Xing Xiuyan patted his chest and took a deep breath, and said: "This is not my house anymore. Is there a group of people like you who bully the Lord? Is there such a good sister who has sworn to the emperor? Whoever I provoke, a Forcefully bury me alone!"

Wang Xifeng pulled her and said with a smile: "Cousin is not overbearing, we are kind enough to suppress you first, so that it will last for a long time, right?"

Daiyu turned her eyes, and said proudly: "What Lian's second sister-in-law said is that we are just kind, and she just doesn't appreciate it!" from.

Xing Xiuyan could only pull Yingchun and said, "Second Sister, it's better for you, you are not as bad as them."

Jia Yingchun has always been indifferent to foreign things, but now that the three Taoyuan sisters and Mrs. Xing have brought her to socialize, she is much better. After the audition, she has experienced it, and she has become a little more courageous.

Jia Yingchun smiled and said, "Madam, I haven't even congratulated you yet, everyone has said all the good things."

As if Xing Xiuyan had been shocked by electric shock, all of them betrayed.

After a day of drinking and eating, Xing Xiuyan searched for an opportunity to help the heavy Wang Xifeng to a secluded corner of the courtyard to talk. Although Wang Xifeng was proud of the closeness with her cousin who was about to enter the palace, she was still a little strange.

"Cousin is dizzy?" Xing Xiuyan was toasted a lot just now.

Xing Xiuyan ordered to retreat to the left and right, and said, "Biao sister-in-law, you can accompany me to the pavilion to talk."

Wang Xifeng couldn't help it, and said: "It's good luck to get close to my cousin now, once you enter the palace, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see you again, just like the big girl in our mansion."

Xing Xiuyan sighed, and suddenly said: "You must not take what my cousin sister-in-law told you today."

Wang Xifeng was startled and said, "Oh, but what's wrong with me?"

Xing Xiuyan said: "I know that my cousin is a hero among fans. I have always loved such a straightforward person. Why is it not the case with the two younger sisters? Although we have different ways of dealing with the world, we are the same kind of people." It's just that Xing Xiuyan is a person Refreshing, but usually not competitive, and Wang Xifeng is straightforward, but always competitive.

Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "How can I compare with my cousin?"

Xing Xiuyan said: "I just met a few noble people. Cousin, I heard that sister Xue's elder brother who lives in the house has committed a crime, and finally... the house gave a name sticker to solve it?"

Wang Xifeng thought to himself that many people in Jia's mansion knew about it, so it's not surprising that Xing Xiuyan knew about it.Wang Xifeng asked: "Actually, it's just a case of robbing a girl. Killing someone is an accident."

Xing Xiuyan shook her head and said, "My cousin knows that the murderer dies according to the law. If you use a name sticker to interfere with the national law, it is also a serious crime to seize the title and exile? No one has reported it now. Once someone reports it, the sentence will be added. Also, during the big Jiangnan case, many families were imprisoned, no matter how rich they were in the past, their heads were rolled away. It turns out that these wealthy families secretly... let go of the profit and money to get their lives. I heard that many families How many people are infected, I don’t know if there are any in the family? If someone’s life is caused by profit, it is also a capital crime. The current emperor is very different from the Supreme Emperor. He pays attention to the laws of the country. The rooster warns the monkey. If there is one in the house, it must be arranged early, otherwise I'm afraid it will be..."

Wang Xifeng's face became paler and paler, her whole body trembled, she held her stomach uneasy and said, "You... are you telling the truth?"

Xing Xiuyan hurriedly supported her arm and said: "Why should I lie to you, I just feel that I have a destiny with my sister-in-law, and I can't bear that my cousin won't be able to inherit Rongguo Mansion. I will enter the palace soon, I don't have any real brothers, and I only have a foster brother from the Shi family You and Lian's second brother, they are good, and they treat me better."

Wang Xifeng said in a trembling voice: "If... what else is there besides that one? It's still in my hands, what should I do?" Wang Xifeng remembered an incident a few days ago.

Xing Xiuyan pretended to be surprised: "Really? My God... Cousin, hurry up and wipe it off when there are many clan princes and concubines flooding the court after the draft, don't lose the big one for a little money." You should discuss it with the second brother Lian and ask him for forgiveness. Some of the money you do is to subsidize the mansion. The second brother Lian may have a way. Also, the second brother Lian also wants to pay for his nephew who is about to be born. Help you. Originally, my sister-in-law is so heavy and I shouldn't say this now, but after I enter the palace, it will be difficult to see my sister-in-law."
