The eldest son of the concubine who crossed the red mansion

Mo Cheng's work was very fast, but within a few days, he found out that Zhou Rui's family was giving out money for profit.Although it was through the hands of an intermediary, and there was no positive indication that Zhou Rui's family did what he did, there are still some clues that can be inquired after all.Furthermore, "money can make ghosts grind", no matter how tight your mouth is, you can't stand the temptation of money.

"Investigate this matter slowly, don't worry, this little thing is not enough to punish her." Lin Yuxuan flipped through the intermediary's confession a few times, and there were fingerprints on it, "Tsk tsk, it really is a 'wealthy' Duke The government, the interest on loan sharks really opened my eyes."

"It seems that this second wife really has a 'Bodhisattva heart' after such heavy exploitation." Mo Cheng also added, "When I went to investigate these few days, I saw Zhou Rui's son-in-law, Leng Zixing. It’s a big style. There are several shops under his command, and they all sell antiques.”

"Oh, are the things he sells real or fake?" Lin Yuxuan asked curiously.

"Most of them are fake. How can someone from a servant's family get so many good things? If they really get it, why don't they hide it all in their own home." Mo Cheng has good eyesight, and he used to be with Lin Yuxuan when he was with Lin Yuxuan. I have seen a lot of good things, and I can still see something about some so-called "antiques".

"As long as it can make money, no matter how good it is." Lin Yuxuan had already thought of an idea, and called Mo Chenglai to whisper in his ear.

"Yes, I'll do it right away." Mo Cheng nodded, turned around and walked out.

Lin Yuxuan flipped through the miscellaneous notes with his left hand, and silently tapped the desk with the index finger of his right hand. After thinking for a while, he packed the confessions in a brocade box with a lock.The plan this time could be longer. He has plenty of time to plan slowly. Only a complete and perfect plan can make the building collapse.He didn't intend to come forward to tell Jia She these news, but he might as well start with the people around Jia She, anyway, Jia She has a lot of wine and meat friends.

"Where did those people in the palace promise to go?" Jia Yuanchun asked casually while combing his well-maintained long hair lazily with a suet white jade comb.Since returning to the palace, although the emperor has often set foot in Fengzao Palace, he always ordered Hejia and Huijia to stay in bed. Occasionally, Jia Tanchun could also get a share, but her main palace, Tu Qingze, never Stepped in.

"Jing promised to wait outside to greet the empress. As for the other two promised, I heard that they have already gone to Fengyi Palace." Baoqin helped Jia Yuanchun choose the jewelry, "Jing promised is a caring person, but the other Two, but they no longer regard the empress as the master of the first palace."

"Tanchun's temperament is what I heard from my mother, and she is considered smart." Jia Yuanchun asked the maid with disheveled hair to comb her a shocking bun, and took out the golden jade steps with pearls and tassels that her ex-tu Qingze gave her. The hairpin was inserted on the left side of the hair bun, and three purple tourmaline beads were pinned on the right side. "As for the other two, they are just things sent by others. The emperor cares that they will be thrown away soon after this period. It's time for me to take care of them."

Do you think that Bengong will never be able to turn over after being neglected by the emperor for a while, you idiot!Jia Yuanchun put on a pair of gold inlaid jewel flower earrings, put on the armor, hooked the corners of his mouth and said: "Call her in."

"Yes."

Jia Tanchun's outfit today is not conspicuous.One is that she just promised, and Mrs. Wang didn't prepare a good dowry for her; the other is that the empress of the host likes luxury the most, and she can't steal her limelight.It's not that Jia Tanchun doesn't want to compete for favor, it's just that sometimes it's not his turn to show up, so he can only bear with it for a while.She has endured in Rongguo Mansion for so many years, and it's not too late.

"Greetings to Empress Xiande." Jia Tanchun took a deep breath and bowed.

"Get up." Jia Yuanchun smiled triumphantly, "Let's go, please greet the queen, not later."

"Yes." Jia Tanchun looked at Jia Yuanchun's head full of gorgeous ornaments, and thought of the few unattractive silver and gold hairpins on his head, and secretly swore in his heart that one day she would also be the lord of the palace!

The emperor's holy car returned to Beijing at the end of November.In order for the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager to meet the grown-up princes and grandchildren, on New Year's Eve, Tu Qingze once again called everyone into the palace for a family banquet.But Lin Yuxuan, the son-in-law, was not alone, because Princess Shuqing, who got married a few days ago, attended the banquet together with her son-in-law, Yang Qian, the founding hero of the country, and now the imperial censor Yang Peiqi.Lin Yuxuan and Yang Peiqi were not very familiar with each other, but they could chat for a few words after all.

"I heard from Shishi that you married Shuyi to a third-rank official?" The Supreme Emperor drank two glasses of wine, said a few words to the grandchildren beside him, and then turned his head to ask Tu Qingze.As soon as these words came out, the originally lively banquet fell silent instantly, even the Supreme Emperor himself was startled, but the words had already been asked, and he couldn't get off the stage.

Lin Yuxuan didn't change his face, it seemed that this question was not aimed at himself.

"Although Xiuhe is a third-rank official, he is not yet 25. Doesn't this just show that Brother Huang has vision?" Tu Qingchen came out at the critical moment, "Actually speaking, Xiuhe is also from a scholarly family. His father was Lin Ruhai, a former official of Lantai and the censor of salt inspection in Hangzhou, and this man's father had also praised him before."

"Exactly." Tu Qingze glanced at Lin Yuxuan, who was standing still, and felt that his vision was really accurate, so he smiled and said, "Shuyi is the eldest princess in the palace, and my son is reluctant to marry her far away, so why not marry her?" Among the educated people in Beijing, he is chosen as a talented man to marry him, and it is quite harmonious."

Lin Yuxuan put down his wine glass and thanked the emperor for his compliment.

The Supreme Emperor didn't want to find fault, seeing Lin Yuxuan's steady look, he nodded in satisfaction.

Tu Qingchen rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, Shuyi and Shuqing are both married, and Shuchen also pointed out their marriage. Among the girls of the right age, there is only Huier from the family of the fourteenth brother who has not yet discussed it." Kiss. ​​It just so happens that the father is back, why not help the fourteenth brother palm the eyes."

"There are quite a few talented people of the right age in Beijing. The emperor will help you to see. She is the daughter of the fourteenth daughter. You can't be careless." Only then did the Supreme Emperor remember that Tu Qingyi's daughter was not honored to be brought into the palace. To put it bluntly, If the emperor didn't help, he would be appointed as a princess to marry an ordinary family, not as good as Shuyi Shuqing and the others.The Supreme Emperor was definitely unwilling, so he told Tu Qingze.

"My son knows." Tu Qingze looked at Tu Qingxi's bluish face meaningfully, and took a sip of his wine with a smile.

Lin Yuxuan was speechless.Does King Zhongshun count as losing his daughter and being slapped in the face?Sure enough, you still have to think carefully before doing things. Now that you don't have the right to participate in Princess Hui'er's marriage, the marriage with Jia's family must be nothing.

"Speaking of which, Grand Concubine Zhen Gui has been ill all the time. Why don't you ask Huier to come into the palace to accompany her. I think her granddaughter Grand Concubine Gui's illness may improve after seeing her." The queen interjected at the right time.

"Alright." The Supreme Emperor also felt that the Queen's words were reasonable, so he didn't even look at the troubled face in the picture, and nodded without saying a word.

Lin Yuxuan and Tu Qingchen looked at each other, and they both pursed their lips and smiled.

The Supreme Emperor spoke a few more words to Yang Peiqi, seeing that the sons-in-law of his two granddaughters were safe people, he felt relieved, and only cared about teasing his little grandson, seemingly not aware of the ugly expression in the first picture below.On the contrary, Princess Zhongshun had a smile on the corner of her mouth, and gave the queen a grateful look.

After the Lantern Festival, Hui'er was brought close to the palace, and soon, under the wish of the Supreme Emperor, she was married to the legitimate son of the second-class Qingche Duwei's family.Although this marriage reference was beyond Tu Qinglian's expectation - he originally thought that according to his relationship with the emperor, his daughter might marry outside the Great Wall, but although this family can be regarded as the duke's family, they have no real power in their hands , To put it bluntly, he is an idle boy, which makes him quite disappointed.

Suddenly there were two more Buddha statues in the palace, and the concubines had no time to spare. Apart from currying favor with the queen, they usually paid homage to the empress dowager.You know, the empress dowager is the emperor's biological mother. As long as she is favored by the empress dowager, she will have an extra chance of winning in front of the emperor.

So when Shuyi carried Ning Chun to greet the Empress Dowager, she met several concubines chatting with the Empress Dowager in Shouan Palace.These few nobles who have only entered the palace in recent years, Zhaopin and Mi nobles are also there, but they are smarter and brought their own princes here, so the empress dowager also attaches great importance to them.

"This is Ning Chun, right? Ai's family has heard about it from the queen, so ask Ai's family to take a look." As soon as the granddaughter came out, everyone else had to avoid it.

Ning Chun was not afraid of life, she nestled in the empress dowager's arms and quietly let her look at her, occasionally showing a face-saving smile, the small rice grain-like teeth looked extraordinarily cute against the pink and tender gums.

Xue Baochai looked at Ning Chun kindly, but most of the time she cast her eyes on her son Ziheng.The queen raised her very well, and allowed herself to go to Fengyi Palace to meet her son every few days, so there was no separation between mother and child.It's just that the matter she promised to the queen has not been done well, Jia Yuanchun is still sitting on the concubine's position steadily, but he is only a noble person, and he doesn't know when he will be able to make it out.Fortunately, her management in the palace these years was not in vain. A peony was added to Fengzao Palace, and one of the people who added it was her eyeliner. Once she caught something, she could In one fell swoop reported.

"My sister is so silent, what's wrong?" Zhaopin asked with a smile while hugging her son.

"I just feel that these days are quite leisurely." Xue Baochai turned her beautiful eyes and said with a smile, "Sister, do you know that the two in Fengzao Palace are now favored and promised? It is said that they are so prestigious now that they even go to I have shirked the matter of paying respects to Concubine Xiande."

"With such a prestige, doesn't it mean that the Xiande Concubine doesn't care about it?" Concubine Zhao also has a son who is full of everything, and she doesn't care about competing for favor, and she has no time to inquire about it.Hearing this gossip today, I was a little surprised and curious, so I asked: "Could it be that Concubine Xiande just let them do this?"

"What else can I do? Concubine Xiande is naturally virtuous, so she doesn't care about these things." Xue Baochai smiled, "Aren't you afraid that she will ruin my reputation as a virtuous person in front of the emperor?"

Zhaopin almost couldn't help laughing.
