The eldest son of the concubine who crossed the red mansion

Jia Yuanchun put on a goose-yellow embroidered grass-green ruyi-pattern jacket and carmine red cherry blossom thin silk palace dress, and arranged the dishes for dinner according to his own knowledge, and then waited for Tu Qingze in a happy and expectant mood. 's arrival

That's right, Tu Qingze turned over her brand today.

This is the tenth day after the year.Apart from staying with the empress and concubine during these ten days, Tu Qingze turned over Jia Yuanchun's sign for the first time, and she couldn't help but be filled with joy.Although there are a few new young girls in the palace, Chang Zaixiao promised, they are all young girls, but Jia Yuanchun feels that although these juicy girls have good looks, they can't compare with their mature self in any case. of.

"Your Majesty, my maidservant dried some rose petals for you earlier, soaking them in water is the best way to apply them to your face." Xue Baochai handed over a wet handkerchief full of fragrance, "After applying it on your face, put on the new rose petals from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The purple jasmine rouge is even more powerful, and it can better highlight the beauty of the empress."

Jia Yuanchun held the piano and wiped her face with a silk handkerchief, and the fragrance of roses was refreshing.It seemed that she had made the right decision in keeping this cousin by her side.Baochai's poems, books, piano and paintings are good, her conversation is excellent, and she knows some things about skin care. The most important thing is to know what to say and what not to say, and to be able to advise her.

Xue Baochai finally breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Jia Yuanchun apply the silk handkerchief she added.At the beginning she "ran into" the emperor in the Plum Garden. Although she had attracted the attention of the emperor, the emperor didn't have any thoughts on her.It's rare for the emperor to come over tonight, so she must seize the opportunity.Xue Baochai knew that Jia Yuanchun should not be in contact with pollen and fish at the same time, otherwise he would get rashes all over his body.It just so happened that tonight's meal included a dish of braised yellow-lipped fish, Xue Baochai naturally would not let go of such an opportunity.

After the hot compress, Xue Baochai asked Jia Yuanchun to send Baoqin to the kitchen to watch in a few words, while he opened the rouge on the table and put it in front of Jia Yuanchun, saying: "I heard from the father-in-law of the Ministry of Internal Affairs that these rouges were imported from the south as a tribute." You can't get it from ordinary concubines. After all, it was the empress who got the favor and got three boxes, and the rest seems to be only available from the empress."

"Isn't there one with Concubine He?" Jia Yuanchun asked with a smile in his heart.

"The imperial concubine said that she doesn't like to use purple jasmine rouge, so she doesn't want it." Xue Baochai watched Jia Yuanchun smugly applying makeup in front of the mirror with a smile, and the stone in his heart finally settled down.Just in case, she went to inquire about it. The purple jasmine rouge is made of various flowers to blend the fragrance, and there must be pollen in it.

That night, when Jia Yuanchun was waiting for Tu Qingze to take a bath and change clothes after dinner, he suddenly found large red spots on his arms, back and chest, which were extremely itchy.Jia Yuanchun was startled and annoyed, and quickly asked Baoqin to invite the imperial doctor, and Xue Baochai to report to the emperor.

Tu Qingze raised his eyebrows, glanced at Xue Baochai who was kneeling at the head, smelled a different aroma from ordinary incense at the tip of his nose, and a smile that made Dai Quan who was standing beside him shuddered, and said calmly: "Since Concubine Xiande is inconvenient to serve me now, so you can do it."

Xue Baochai was suffocated for breathing, and after a long while kowtowed and said: "Slave servant, obey the order."

"I heard that there is an extra Xue Changzai in the palace recently?" Lin Yuxuan asked with a chuckle, rubbing the jade wrench in his hand.

"Yes, I heard that she is the female official next to the Xiande Concubine of Fengzao Palace. The surname is Xue, and she is the girl from the Xue family of the imperial merchant." Lin Hui hurriedly told all the things he had recently inquired about, "This matter I don’t know why it has already spread in Beijing. It is said that the emperor also cares about this Xue Changzai. Not only did he leapfrog the rank to be promoted, but he also allowed her to live alone in Xiaoyuan Palace. Xiaoyuan Palace has no main seat. It’s also very free.”

But Lin Yuxuan said: "There is a younger sister who has been favored for a while, Xue Pan is afraid that his luck will change this time."

"Xue Pan committed the serious crime of murder. Even if there is a favored younger sister in the palace, it doesn't matter, is it possible that the emperor will pardon his capital crime?" Lin Hui was a little puzzled.

"Let's just wait and see." Lin Yuxuan smiled mysteriously, "What is my sister doing recently?"

"I heard from Baozhu that I'm embroidering purses with my mother." Lin Huixian showed off the big red mandarin duck sachet that Baozhu gave him when he and Baozhu got married, "Speaking of which, Grandpa is going to get married in three months. I don't know if the princess in the palace will get along well?"

"Whether it's good or not, she also lives in the princess mansion, and my sister is the housekeeper here, so it doesn't matter." Hearing what Lin Hui said, Lin Yuxuan remembered that if Lin Daiyu got married, what should happen in the Lin mansion? Whose turn is it to be the butler?It is said that Princess Shuyi is quiet and withdrawn, so one can imagine that the relationship between the two of them is probably the kind of "respect each other like ice".Lin Yuxuan was having a headache. If he had known that it would be better to get engaged to the girl from Master Qin's family earlier, he wouldn't have to be so troubled.

Lin Hui was about to speak when he saw his sister-in-law walking in.She winked at Lin Hui, and Lin Hui understood, and quietly backed out.

"Brother hasn't had lunch yet. The servants have stewed abalone and bird's nest porridge, and asked the small kitchen to make steamed duck with fermented wine, asparagus in soup and braised yellow croaker. Try it soon, brother."

Lin Yuxuan raised his head, and found that the person in front of him was Jiayi whom he hadn't seen for a long time, he quickly smiled and said, "Why is Sister Jiayi here?"

"Master wrote to Hangzhou, asking the slaves and maids to go to Beijing to help with my brother's marriage. No, the slaves are here." Jiayi put a few dishes in front of Lin Yuxuan, "Master means, ask the slaves to find some gentle and honest The girl, opened her face and put her in my brother's room to wait on her."

Lin Yuxuan almost choked when he heard this, the people in the room! ?He quickly took a sip of tea and said, "Why did Dad suddenly think of this?"

"Isn't this normal? My brother is about to get married, how can there be no one to wait around?" Jiayi said, "At first, I thought that the palace would send someone, but I didn't know that there is no news. The slave is thinking about the uncle The pearl beside her is already married, but there is another pearl, which is about the same age as you, so it happens to be suitable."

Lin Yuxuan twitched his lips, and said, "Don't worry about this matter. The left and right palaces should send a concubine for a trial marriage. Let's not act rashly. If the emperor or Prince Gong find out, I'm afraid we will have to kill Lin Yuxuan." The government has been demolished."

Jiayi thought about it, and felt that what Lin Yuxuan said made sense, so she nodded and stopped mentioning it.

Mrs. Wang is really on fire recently.It's fine for my younger sister to move out with my birth share, but I don't want Xue Baochai, a niece who entered the palace as a servant, to be lucky enough to be favored by the emperor. The daughters of the court fought against each other.Thinking of seeing her own Yuan Chun's unguarded appearance when she went to the palace to visit her daughter a few days ago, she was very angry and annoyed, wishing she could just rush to Xiaoyuan Palace and slap Xue Baochai.

Speaking of which, Yuan Chun was also careless. He knew that his constitution was prone to allergies, so why didn't he check the things around him carefully?The box of mirabilis rouge is made of various whole flowers to adjust the fragrance, and naturally it also contains pollen, and after eating a few mouthfuls of fish, it's no wonder that you can't afford a red rash!The most inappropriate thing was to send Baochai to report to the emperor.A crisp 16-year-old girl appeared in front of the emperor, could the emperor not be moved? !

Mrs. Wang wrung her handkerchief, gritted her teeth and said to Zhou Rui's family: "I see Baochai as a restless creature. After entering the palace, she will share Yuanchun's favor. She really knows how to act!"

Zhou Rui's family secretly said: You are obviously unwilling to help the Xue family to solve Uncle Xue's matter, so how can you blame Miss Xue for seeking divine grace for the Xue family's matter with deliberation.But he responded in his mouth: "The second wife is right, but now Miss Xue is the emperor's new favorite, even the empress in the palace, I'm afraid she can't shake her half. It makes sense!"

"I don't know!" Mrs. Wang said impatiently, "It's just that the soul of the emperor has been snatched away by that bastard Baochai, what can Yuanchun do?!"

"Although the empress is out of favor now, she is a concubine after all. Isn't it easy to punish a Chang Zai?" Zhou Rui's family rolled their eyes and said, "Besides, Xue Changzai just took advantage of the empress's illness. The superior. My wife can also send a few newcomers to the palace for the empress, and ask the empress to introduce them to the emperor."

Madam Wang frowned.Sending a newcomer into the palace, isn't that just to embarrass one's own daughter, one Xue Baochai is already annoying enough, how can there be a few more charming girls!As for punishing Baochai?The emperor still dotes on her now, no matter how jealous and resentful Yuan Chun is, he can't be so blatant...

"Forget it, I'll think about it again." Mrs. Wang snorted angrily, "Have you paid out all the monthly allowances for this month?"

"It has already been posted." Zhou Rui's family saw that there was no one around, and hurriedly stepped forward and said in a low voice: "When the maidservant was putting money outside for profit, she got an excellent pot of red coral bonsai, and someone has quietly moved it back and put it in the wife's house. This red coral looks festive, so it would be good to send it to the palace for the empress.” After speaking, he took out a brocade box from his sleeve, “This is the new Qiaozhizhai that my wife ordered me to order. The red musk bead bracelet, each red musk bead is carefully selected, it is the most suitable for the empress."

Mrs. Wang took it over and took a look, and sure enough, all of them were round and delicate, with a faint fragrance, so she nodded in satisfaction: "I will hand over the plaque to the palace next month, and send these to Yuanchun. Also, Yuanchun I have been serving the emperor for many years, and I have not seen any pregnancy, so you go and ask the doctor in Huichun Hall to prescribe some good fertility medicine, and I will bring it in with you."

"Yes."
