Red House Farm Stay

Of course Jia Lian would not let Mei Rui go just like that. After all, the Household Department's arrest of people is not justified.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs also acted very quickly. They often dealt with court ladies and aunts who committed crimes.

Mei Rui turned out to be Prince Zhongshun's former concubine, her group of women who entered the palace all served the prince.But only she got the title, was accepted into the backyard, and was quite favored.

Later, when Prince Zhongshun died, she hooked up with the second son of Prince Zhongshun, who proclaimed himself Ding Dingwang, and made a fuss for a while.

I thought that the good times would continue forever, but the Japanese pirates landed and several leaders lived in the palace.They had many women in their service, and almost all of those women were tortured to death.One day, she overheard a general among the Japanese pirates begging King Ding for her. She knew that King Ding would definitely not destroy their alliance for her, so she found a chance to escape.

It was true that she was taken in by the old couple later on.Of course, when she returned to Jinling, what she pondered the most was how to become Jia Lan's concubine Ji.At the beginning, he wanted to curry favor with Li Wan first, wait for Miss Du to marry in, and let his wife decide for herself.

Later, she found that it didn't work, and the unexpected appearance of Jia Zhuo and Qing'er made her mess up.She simply took the risk and asked someone to send a message to her parents to make a fuss in front of Du's house. These rich people want to save face, so it's fine to force the two families to recognize her.

The big deal is that when the time comes, she will be humble again, ask Jia Lan for forgiveness, and push the matter to others. She doesn't believe that she can't gain a foothold in Jia's family.

The only blame is that the parents are too greedy and want her to be the second wife. The second is that they underestimated Mrs. Du, and the third is that they underestimated Jia Zhuo and Jia Lan's tolerance for her.

She always thought that if we got to know each other once, if things were revealed in the end, there would be no way out for her.

Unexpectedly, he would be dragged directly to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to torture and extract a confession.

"However, she said that she knew the secret against the Wang family, and she wanted to tell the emperor herself." Jia Lan thought it was ridiculous, she really regarded herself as a person, and said that when she saw the emperor, she would see the emperor.

"The secret against the king, what secrets can he have?" Jia Zhuo was puzzled. The biggest secret in the past was colluding with Japanese pirates. Now it's on the surface. What secrets are there?

Jia Lan spread her hands, "Your father said that the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs have exhausted their methods, and she will kill her if she kills her, she must see the emperor."

"But..." Jia Lan glanced at Jia Zhuo, "between you father and daughter..."

Obviously, Jia Lian knew the process of this matter best, but Jia Zhuo wanted to find out through him. After coming back for so long, the relationship is still not good?

"As usual, when I grow up, I can't pretend to be an idiot, and he doesn't know how to be someone's father. He has problems, but he can't change it." Jia Zhuo understood very well that Jia Lian didn't love her, Whenever she asks for something, she does it right away.

But the missing years between them really can't bridge the level of happiness.

"Actually, Second Uncle Lian really loves you very much. He has been looking around at houses recently and wants to buy a big house for you as a dowry. He also needs to buy a group of people and keep the deeds of sale at home, just because he is afraid that you will marry and live there in the future." Not good, you have to clean and cook by yourself, and you are afraid that the Wang family will bully you, and you don't even have a helper."

Jia Lan went on to make trouble, "I'm not saying that the Wang family is that kind of people, but you also said that there are farmers and snakes in the front, but there are always stupid farmers in the back. It's the same reason. As parents, it's normal for them to worry about their daughters."

Jia Zhuo didn't know about it, but he let out a long sigh when he heard it, "I'm not short of money, and I never thought of asking him to prepare a dowry."

Jia Lan looked at her helplessly. How could there be a daughter who didn't need her parents to prepare a dowry?

"I'm going to the barracks tomorrow, and I won't be able to pass on messages anymore. If you have any questions, you can ask your father directly."

Jia Lan's luggage has already been packed, if he hadn't had to plead guilty to the Du family for dealing with Mei Rui, he would have gone two days earlier.

Fortunately, the Du family was quite satisfied with the handling of Mei Rui's matter, and Du Xiao, who had always been stern-faced, couldn't pick any thorns, so he let him go.

"I wish big brother all the best, make contributions as soon as possible, and become the support of our Jia family." Jia Zhuofu saluted and regarded it as a farewell.

Mei Rui still met the emperor as she wished, not only that, but also revealed a shocking secret.Prince Zhongshun is not the son of the first emperor, but a descendant of Japanese pirates.

Concubine Min, the mother of Prince Zhongshun, was originally from Wa Island. She learned Han culture since she was a child. When she grew up, she was sent to Dayue because of her amazing beauty. She used her identity as a Han to arrange for her to be seen by the emperor at that time.

After many twists and turns, the emperor brought her into the harem and named her Concubine Min. When Concubine Min entered the palace, she was already pregnant with a child. Of course, the emperor believed that the child belonged to him.In fact, this child belongs to Concubine Min and a general from Wajima.

After a successful plan, General Wajima tried another trick, placing a woman who was pregnant with her own child in the position of the Cha family's mistress.

Originally, he wanted to continue to concoct, but because of the defeat in the war in Wajima, he had no spare energy and money to operate the remaining ideas.

But the general who is far away on Wa Island has never forgotten his two sons.She wholeheartedly hoped that Prince Zhongshun, who was the prince at that time, would be able to ascend to the throne, but Concubine Min's background was really not on the table. Seeing that there was no chance, Concubine Min immediately turned her head to show favor to the prince who had the opportunity to ascend to the throne.

Afterwards, he became a loyal and obedient prince, loyal and obedient all his life, like an old pug.But the blood of the Japanese islanders is always flowing on his body, and it is only logical that he finally join forces with the Japanese pirates.

As for why the Cha family suddenly changed their low-key behavior and poured all their strength into supporting the First Prince in the open, but in fact supporting Prince Zhongshun, now they all understand.

As for why the Cha family was exterminated, everyone can only guess that it was because the anti-king was afraid that the Cha family would leak blood, or that he would compete with him for position based on the same blood.

No matter what the result is, there is no doubt that Prince Zhongshun's lineage is not royal blood.

"The more you think about it, the more suspicious it becomes. The old dog's eyebrows are as small as mung beans, and our royal descendants all have thick eyebrows and big eyes, even Concubine Min has big almond eyes. He must have followed the appearance of Japanese pirates, it is really hateful." The emperor and the queen Complaining, if the imperial grandfather hadn't been dazzled by a woman, how could future generations have encountered such a thing.

"Now that I know, shouldn't I express something." The Queen said cautiously.

"Of course, tell the world that the anti-king lineage will be expelled from the ancestral hall, and Concubine Min will be removed from the tomb of the first emperor and thrown into the mass grave."

If their branch hadn't rebelled, the royal family would have dealt with this kind of scandal in a low-key manner, but now, they don't care so much.

When Jia Zhuo heard the news, it was unbelievable. She never dreamed that there would be such a dramatic scene.But the imperial list was posted and sent to every corner of Dai Viet.The only thing she was worried about was where Young Master Ninth was now, whether he would see the imperial list, and whether he would suddenly go crazy, which would be bad for Ban'er.

But she is too far away, beyond reach.

The ninth son did leave Jinling City with the help of Ban'er. He confessed to Ban'er that he never agreed with the family's deal with the Japanese pirates, and most of the family did not agree.The patriarch has already had a showdown with the Japanese pirates, and they don't want to continue like this, hoping to let them go.

Unexpectedly, what they got in exchange was a whole family of tragedies.The Ninth Young Master was devoted to avenging his family, and first pinned his hopes on the emperor in Jinling City, but after no results, he went to Andu Mansion, hoping to get King Suqing to send troops.

Ban'er knew that he would not succeed, and hoped that he would go there and give up, and live his life incognito in this life.

But he didn't expect that he let the ninth son go, and followed Mr. Zhou on the way to Andu mansion.

Ban'er didn't know if the Ninth Young Master would get what he wanted, but now that the imperial list came out, his status immediately became awkward.I don't know what choice he will make, and how to face his embarrassing situation.

Jia Zhuo received a letter from Baner, and they received a super-high standard reception from King Suqing in Andu Mansion, and invited Mr. Zhou to give lectures. Hundreds of students came to attend the lectures every day.And these disciples also have countless literary meetings to attend.

The prince arranged a private meeting, mainly to ask questions about the cultivation of corn and rice seeds.Ban'er was very surprised, because from the questions he asked, it could be heard that Shizi was very familiar with farming.It is definitely not simply taking other people's problems according to the script, and even discussing farming with Ban'er without any effort.

These words were of course written in a very obscure language, but Jia Zhuo could understand them.

After finishing the letter, she got in the car and went to Jia Lan's house to accompany Li Wan. Fang Ling and Xiao Hong also often went to Xiaozuo.They brought a lot of news. Recently, there has been a lot of turmoil in Beijing, and several dignitaries have had their homes ransacked.

"The ransacking of the house has nothing to do with us. Now God seems to be dozing off, and it hasn't rained. In all likelihood, the harvest will fall again this year. We have entrusted someone to collect grain, and you should hurry up and stock up on some. Sister Qiao is not afraid, the Wang family has their own land, and they will definitely give it to their family."

Fangling's voice was exceptionally crisp, it was only spring, and she had already put on a summer shirt, and was still holding a handkerchief to wipe away sweat.

"Why are you so afraid of the heat, you must be pregnant again." Xiaohong teased her.

"No way, there's been no news for six or seven years." With that said, Fang Ling was not sure, she was already afraid of heat, although she was a little more afraid this year, she didn't feel that way.As for the body, I don't feel like I can eat or sleep at all, so I really didn't think about it.

"Then what are you waiting for, call a doctor to come in, everyone can rest assured." Li Wan hurriedly called his mother-in-law to invite the doctor.

As soon as Jia Zhuo came in, Li Wan asked someone to serve the crispy cheese, "I've already made it and put it away, and I'll wait for you to come."

"It can be seen that we are all under Qiaojie's favor." Fangling ate the food in his mouth, still not forgetting to joke.

"Even if you have food, you can't stop your mouth." Li Wan scolded her with a smile, he was very happy in his heart, knowing that they were afraid that they would be bored, so they often came to accompany her.

Xiaohong asked: "We were talking about grain just now, is it true that there will be a shortage of harvest this year?"

Mentioning this, Jia Zhuo said worriedly: "Isn't it? There is a pond next to Xiaodongshan, which is a bit better. Not every place is so lucky." She asked Wang Gou'er, and Wang Gou'er said that this year Not only is there a drought, but there may also be floods.

"God does it year after year. He really bullies people. In the past few years, there hasn't been a perfect time." Xiaohong scratched her fingers, almost every year there were disasters in places, and she didn't expect it to be Jinling's turn this year.

"Dayue is so big, there will always be extreme weather in some places. It turns out that the dispatch is good, but it is not a big deal. But it is getting worse because of the rebellion." Jia Zhuo heard that there were several waves outside during this time. The power has reversed, but it is far away from Jinling and there are not many people, so it has not been paid attention to.

But for Dayue, there were wounds everywhere, and it was nothing to look at alone. If they were not healed, waiting for them to join together, even a lot of ants could kill an elephant.

"The imperial court is raising food and grass. Once all the funds are raised, the army will move out. When the anti-king is eliminated, our Da Yue will only get better and better." Li Wan is full of confidence in the future.

"Will Brother Lang make it in time for our wedding?" Xiaohong worried.

"The Du family's furniture has all been brought in, and we've taken care of everything. It's God's will whether we can catch up. Of course, their men put state affairs first." Fortunately, the two families are in the same situation, and they can understand each other, and everything can be negotiated. Otherwise, Li Wan would not be so calm now.

"If you need help, just ask, we can't help you, we still have some strength." Fangling joked again.

"One, two or three of you, you have to bring your whole family to work as coolies." Li Wan laughed loudly, the woman outside came to report, and the doctor invited him.

Inviting the doctor to the Nuan Pavilion next door, Fang Ling felt a little flustered for no reason, and only reacted when the doctor congratulated her, and tightened the handkerchief, "Really, really?"

Covering her stomach, Fangling's tears were about to fall. Ever since the birth of her eldest son hurt her vitality, she has not been able to conceive again.The couple thought that they would never be able to conceive again, but they didn't expect to have it again at this time.

"Happy event, great happy event, hurry up and tell Brother Qiang to come and pick up the wife in person." Li Wan sealed the doctor a big red envelope, thinking it was a good omen in his heart.Think about it, Jia Lan is about to marry a daughter-in-law, and Fangling has diagnosed a happy pulse at their house. This is not a good omen, but what is an auspicious omen, she is no less excited than Fangling.

When it came time for Jia Lan and Du Yue's wedding, the food and grass for the army had not been fully prepared, and Huo Shangshu had already lost his temper a few times.But for the Jia family, they could have some fun in a low voice, and they finally caught up, so they don't have to wait any longer.

Jia Lan's marriage to a daughter-in-law was naturally a big gathering of the Jia family, and even the Li family's uncles were all there.Jia Zhuo also took the opportunity to identify all the people. From time to time, when someone came over, Fangling or Xiaohong would introduce her to her aunt or sister-in-law.

"This is Qiaojie, she really looks like your mother. I hugged you when I was a child, remember?" A rich woman came over and held Qiaojie's hand tightly.

Sister Qiao always responded with a smile, "I can't remember anything about my childhood."

"It's fine if you don't remember it. It's all family members who have an overnight feud. Your uncle and Brother Rong remember you." The woman saw that she was well-behaved and Ping'er was not around, so she let go of her courage and even took the place of Wang Renhe. Jia Rong spoke up.

Sister Qiao withdrew her hand with a snap, and said to the woman in charge with a cold face, "This aunt is drunk, help her down to sober up."

The servants of Jia Lan's family naturally listened to Jia Zhuo's words, and they didn't care where they got drunk before the banquet.He stepped forward to support the woman, smiling all over his face, "Madam, this old slave will help you down to wipe your face."

"Xiao, no, I..." The woman was helped down by the mother-in-law before she could refute.

Jia Zhuo rolled his eyes, "I didn't expect that there are still people who speak for animals. It's really useless to walk on two legs."

As soon as this sentence was finished, everyone in Jia's family fell silent. They didn't expect this girl to be as arrogant and domineering as her mother.

Both Xiaohong and Fangling covered their mouths and laughed, and Fangling even flicked the veil, "Today is Brother Lang's happy day, don't talk about these spoilers. Come, come, come, this is sister Fang'er from your eighth uncle's family... "

People in Jia's family recognized her almost, so Ping'er sent someone over to call her, and asked her to go to the house to see the bride.

The bride sat on the bed, ate raw glutinous rice balls, raw peanuts, and said a few words "sheng", which made everyone in the room laugh.

Jia Zhuo entered the house and saw one of the Li family's aunts inside. It was the old acquaintance Liu Shi, the one who took seven children to Wannian County to make a fuss. The girl's family is extremely delicate and beautiful, and she is staring at Du Yue upright.

"Okay, I want to give birth, and give birth quickly." Liu's voice was louder than anyone else.

Although everyone knew that Jia Lan might not be ready to go to war at any time, and naturally the sooner she conceived the better, but it made people feel uncomfortable to say it so loudly, as if Jia Lan would not come back.

Du Yue was really unhappy, she looked towards Liu Shi, it was not convenient for her to say anything on the day of great joy, and she didn't know Liu Shi at all, so she couldn't help asking for help to find someone she knew.

"This is the fourth aunt, and the one next to her is the eldest daughter of the fourth uncle's family." Jia Zhuo squeezed over and introduced her.

"No, no, this is not my daughter, this is my niece from my mother's family." Liu hurriedly clarified the identity of the girl beside her.

Jia Zhuo said "Oh", and then introduced someone else for Du Yue.

Ping'er couldn't help but look at Liu Shi more. On such an occasion, it's serious to bring children to watch the fun. What does it mean to bring a niece from her natal family?

Not only Ping'er, but several people looked at Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu didn't think anything, the girl next to her couldn't take it anymore.Feeling that she had been greatly insulted, her face blushed suddenly, and she dragged Liu Shi away.

As soon as they left, Jia Zhuo patted his chest, the air was really fresh.

The rest are members of the Jia family, and most of them are relatives of side branches. They can only curry favor with Du Yue, and what they say will be more pleasing to the ear.Du Yue's face also softened, and he began to smile at the big guy.

When she came out of the new house, Ping'er commented: "She has a temper, I just hope she gets married and can weigh things clearly."

Jia Lan does need a good wife who can stand up, but at the same time, Jia Lan is still young and everything has just started.It would be wrong if you still make friends with Miss Du's hospitality.

"I don't think there's any problem." Jia Zhuo has been in contact with her a few times, and knows her better than Ping'er. The eldest lady is the eldest lady, but she is by no means a spoiled and unreasonable eldest lady.

"Sister Qiao agreed, then it must be good." Ping'er squeezed her hand, "You did it on purpose just now."

"I'm just wondering why my cousin would use such a strange expression when looking at her sister-in-law. If you say it casually, who knows it's not true. No one would have thought that she would not bring her daughter and niece with her on this occasion." Jia Zhuo was straightforward. .

"This is to take advantage of Jia Lan's going out to find an opportunity? These people really don't want to stop for a moment." When Ping'er heard that she admitted that she was a niece, she knew there was a ghost, but she guessed that the Li family might not know about Liu's family. will do so.

The Li family really didn't know, who would have thought that the Liu family would have such an idea, Jia Lan is newly married, no matter how anxious they are, it will be a year later.

When Mrs. Liu returned home, her husband yelled at her, and said unconvinced: "If there is no war, I know there is no need to be in such a hurry. Isn't this going to go to war at any time? Swords and arrows have no eyes, so we must find a way to keep the child. In case One, I mean just in case."

"What's in case, it's what my sister thinks, who can say it."

"You don't tell me, I'm doing it for her own good. It's just such a single seedling. If there is an accident, then the widow is really dead, and there is no hope." Liu thought of Li Wan's head at the wedding banquet. Wearing a pearl the size of a finger, I feel so shabby.My niece seems to be a good child at first glance, wouldn't it be just right to take this opportunity.

"Your niece will be his concubine, you can figure it out."

"It's not about prostitution, a decent concubine, being a concubine for Jia Lan is better than the ones my brother found. Besides, she was willing to do it herself." She helps.She has also worried about this niece for a long time, but now, only Jia Lan is the most suitable.

No one outside the Li family knew about this conversation in the Li family, but when Li Wan heard about what happened in the new house that night, he immediately made a good guess.

"Sinister, you failed Brother Lang once, and you want to do it a second time, bah."

"Ma'am, don't be angry, don't be angry, it's not worthwhile to be angry with this kind of person. Today is a good day for the whole family, we have to act lightly and say nice things, so as not to frighten the mother who gave the baby." In order to please her, the servant girl picked up nice things to say.

"Okay, okay, you're right. Let's all go to bed early and be safe and sound. No one is allowed to disturb the lady who delivers the doll." Li Wan repeated, the expression on his face becoming softer and softer, just like a real girl. It was as if she saw a fat doll smiling at her.

Halfway down the bed, "Is there anyone to serve you, Master? Have you arranged for a midnight snack?"

"Everything has been arranged, don't worry." The servant girl covered Li Wan with a quilt, blew out the oil lamp, and walked out lightly.
