[Red House] The Twins of Purple Pearls

The funeral of the former emperor had not yet passed, and after the flying stars appeared, the message became more and more obvious.

It is said that the current emperor's throne has a wrong origin, and it was the former emperor who was so angry that he let the flying stars fly over the sky, and showed God's will to bring Jin Wang back.

Such rumors with ulterior motives are obviously intended to push the king of Jin to the bright side, so that the new king will be jealous of the king of Jin and get rid of him, so that the oriole hidden behind can reap the benefits of the fisherman.

The matter was entrusted to Zhao Yue and Zhang Yushi to investigate, and finally traced to the county magistrate of Lian County, who was the father-in-law of Xue Tang, the old nephew of the Xue family.

The Xue family was originally a rich family, and because of Princess Heqing's son Xue Bing, the Xue family could be used; but now there is a trouble like this, then Xue Tang is an idiot, and I don't know who is plotting behind him.

Lin Ruhai also cooperated with Zhao and Zhang to secretly investigate the matter, and the six departments became busy again. General Feng Qiu was recalled to the court to take over as Minister of the Ministry of War.

I thought that the dust would settle when the new emperor ascended the throne, but I didn't expect this to be the beginning of the turmoil.

Although the female family members in the backyard did not know the turmoil in the past, they occasionally heard rumors and anecdotes, and several families involved in it could not help but feel worried.

After leaving the national funeral for the first time, Jia Min was named a third-rank Shuren, and entered the palace to pay homage to the queen.

I was meeting Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Yiyang Hou, and Mrs. Shi Er, Mrs. Baoling Hou. Shi Nai and his wife had just returned to Beijing, and Mrs. Shi Er also came to the palace to meet.

It was Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Shi Er who arrived first, and they were still waiting in the side hall, when they saw the palace servants leading Jia Min in.

"Sister Min." Mrs. Shi Er smiled and stepped forward when she saw Jia Min, "I haven't seen you for a long time, how can I be safe in the near future?"

"Thank you, Second Sister-in-law, for caring." Jia Min also laughed, "When did Second Sister-in-law return to Beijing? I don't even know."

"It's just a matter of the day before yesterday." Mrs. Shi Er took Jia Min's hand and said affectionately, and then said to her with a smile in a low voice, "Master was released from Beijing for a few years, I didn't expect to be with sister Min now. Married."

Jia Min talked with Mrs. Shi Er for a while. Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Shi Er were old acquaintances in the past, and she also talked to them: "I heard that the two sons of Mrs. Shi's family are also having a happy event."

Shi Nai had two sons under his knees, both of whom were born to Mrs. Shi's second wife; the eldest son, Shi Lang, hastily settled down Liu Ning'an, the young lady of Li Guogong's mansion, after he came to Beijing; The second girl Li Shu.

After Shi Nai and his wife returned to Beijing, they told Shi Ding about their marriage as brother and sister-in-law.

After all, in their view, Shi Ding divorced the Wen family because of the wishes of the officials. Later, Shi Ding finally thought that he had given Wen's money for many years of love so that she would not be homeless; He was confused for a while, and besides, Brother Heng is still young, so he hastened to discuss the marriage with Shi Ding to avoid troubles in the future.

That woman is also a distant relative of Mrs. Shi Er's natal family, her surname is Fang.This girl from the Fang family also talked about her marriage when she was young, but her father died of illness when she was about to leave the cabinet. Miss Fang kept her filial piety for three years and her mother died, so her life dragged on for six years; The family who promised to marry Miss Fang didn't want to wait any longer, and seeing both of Fang's parents died, they wanted to regret the marriage.Miss Fang was so anxious that she wanted to cut her hair and become an aunt. Fortunately, she was stopped by her brother and sister-in-law at home, but she was discouraged from then on and only stayed at home with the scriptures.

The brothers and sisters-in-law of the Fang family also felt sorry for their sister, and they didn't want to see her be so lonely for the rest of her life; so they asked Mrs. Shi Er to find a good family for her, so that she could live a stable life in the future, and there would be incense for sacrifices in a hundred years.

Mrs. Shi Er never wanted to help her, but it is not easy for Miss Fang to be in such a situation, or to be a successor to someone else, but it may not be a good way out; Could it be that he was going to be eaten so that there were not even bones left.

Later Mrs. Shi Er thought of matching her brother-in-law and Miss Fang.Since Shi Ding divorced the Wen family, according to the rules, he should remarry again, but in this case, he can only marry a young lady who is stalking the family or a widowed woman who remarries. Leave everything in the house to the new daughter-in-law.The Shi family was also really afraid that Shi Ding would marry another Mrs. Hou who disturbed the family. It would be better to marry Miss Fang; It would be a good way for Miss Fang to marry into the Shi family.

Now it seems that the wedding date has been set, so they will marry on the eighth day of the eighth month, which is also considered to be very polite.

After hearing about the Shi family's marriage, Jia Min specially asked Guanshi Qian to go to Fang's house to inquire in person, knowing that the Fang girl's nature was indeed cold and indifferent, so she finally felt at ease.

The three of them were talking in the side hall when they saw a palace official come in and said, "Three ladies, the empress has summoned you."

Jia Mincai, Mrs. Zhao, and Mrs. Shi Er followed the palace people into the main hall; Yu Ming, dressed in a big red phoenix robe and a solemn phoenix crown, sat high on the phoenix seat.

"My wife pays homage to the empress." The three knelt down and saluted, and Yu Ming raised his hand and said, "Get up! Give me a seat."

The three of them bowed again: "Thank you, empress." Then they got up and sat down on both sides to answer.

They are the imperial wives, and they will answer to the queen about everything.Yu Ming only asked them about their daily affairs, and then said: "Now that Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, the Empress and Aunt agreed to release the palace servants from the palace. All these female officials and palace servants have served the emperor since the time of the first emperor. In the palace, this time when Enyun leaves the palace, I also hope that she will get married on her own and be happy."

"Your Majesty is merciful." Hearing what the queen said, Mrs. Zhao said quickly.

In fact, the purpose of letting the palace people out of the palace this time is firstly to show the king's kindness, and secondly, to completely wipe out the remnants left by Gong Wenwen and Zhen Erfei. In this way, it is possible to let them out of the palace instead of going to the imperial tomb first. Huangshou Mausoleum is already the supreme grace.

It's just that Jia Min didn't expect Yuan Chun's name to be included in the list of returning home from the palace.

When Jia Min came out of the palace, Shi Taijun, who got the news, asked Nanny Lai to come and talk, and Jia Min went to Rongguo Mansion with Nanny Lai.

Shi Taijun was just for the matter of Yuanchun: "Yuan girl was cautious in the palace, how could she be sent out?"

"Mother, the Empress Dowager thought of them serving in the palace for many years, so she gave them the gift of leaving the palace and returning home." Although Jia Min persuaded Shi Taijun in this way, he also understood the reason for Shi Taijun in his heart.

Yuan Chun was a female official in the palace, and she could leave the palace after three years, but she asked to stay in the palace just to get ahead.But now they were sent out together, and the reason for this can't help but make people think.

Besides, Yuanchun is not young now, and at this time she said that she would go home and reunite and get married on her own, but the best result would be to marry someone as a successor or marry at a low age. Her talent and appearance are the most outstanding among the four sisters It's a pity that it was buried so hastily.

Jia Min sighed secretly, and then Shi Taijun said again: "Perhaps there is some way to let Yuan girl stay in the palace."

Hearing Shi Taijun say this, Jia Min felt bitter.

The Rongguo Mansion is now in decline, but it puts all its hopes on Yuanchun; to cultivate her to be virtuous and beautiful, and to send her to the palace is to hope that she can become a concubine, be favored by the king, and be favored by the family.

If King Zhao or King Jin came to the throne in the past, he would definitely accept Yuanchun as his concubine in order to temporarily win over the four princes and eight princes. This is the emperor's balancing act.But now the grandson is in the throne, the forces behind the grandson are intertwined with the four kings and eight princes, the queen mother and Princess Xinning sit in the harem, and the queen is the daughter of Tingshan Hou Xu who also comes from the Emperor Supporting School.

I'm afraid Yuan Chun won't get a result even if he suffers in the palace, he might as well come out of the palace, at least he still has hope.

But after all, Jia Min didn't mention this to Shi Taijun, he only said that now the new emperor is on the throne, which is different from the previous emperor's time, and the palace is even more reforming, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Yuan girl in the palace.

If Shi Taijun thought about it, he couldn't help showing bitterness and embarrassment.

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, so mother should not be too sad about it." Jia Min persuaded Shi Taijun again.

In fact, this is not only what Shi Taijun meant, but also what Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang said to each other, but Shi Taijun came to spy on Jia Min about the tone in the palace.

If the grandchildren of the Jia family need to send a daughter to the palace as a concubine, it doesn't have to be Yuan Chun who has been a female official in the palace for many years.

Shi Taijun thought for a while and asked again: "Now that you have gone abroad for a funeral, does your majesty intend to elect a concubine to fill the harem?"

Jia Min lowered her eyes and sighed: "I went to the palace to meet the Empress Dowager, and I also met the Queen Mother and the First Princess. The Queen Mother means that His Majesty has not been on the throne for a long time, and he is busy with state affairs and should not be distracted by the harem. Besides—" She was still in the palace. After hesitating in my heart, I said to Shi Taijun again, "Besides, the queen mother hopes that the queen will give birth to a son as soon as possible, so as to stabilize the court. Both the queen mother and your majesty came from the battle for the throne in the first emperor's dynasty. something unknown."

Princes and princesses who were born in the royal family are naturally noble and supreme, but people are partial. If this partiality is placed on the emperor and queen mother who are the most respected in the world, the result will be very different.

Obviously Shi Taijun didn't expect such a situation, and he was stunned when he heard Jia Min say this.

Jia Min was very pleased.

She also watched Yu Ming grow up, watching the fifth daughter of the Xu family become the grandson concubine, and now the empress of the world; Yu Ming is intelligent, loved by the empress dowager and the eldest princess, and loves sweetly with His Majesty's newlywed Yan Er After giving birth to a son-in-law in the future, the position will be even more stable, and the Xu family has a bright future.

Shi Taijun just sighed secretly, put this matter aside, and asked Jia Min: "By the way, do you have any plans for Sister Yan's marriage? If you haven't made a decision yet, I will also talk to Sister Yan."

"I don't know whose wife entrusted my mother?" Jia Mincai asked with a smile.

"One is the Chen family of the Marquis of Baoning. His eldest son married a girl from the Zhang family. Mrs. Chen proposed marriage for the second son of his family; the other is the Li family of the old in-laws of Jinling, who proposed to marry the fourth son of his family. " Shi Taijun said with a smile, "I see that the Li family is good; the Li family is a scholarly family, and the young masters in the family are all good."

"Mother, this is not kind! If Mrs. Bao Ninghou knows what my mother said, she can't blame her." Jia Min and Shi Taijun said, "Sister Yan's marriage is also settled, it is appropriate Marquis Yang and Mrs. Hou said about the marriage, and Prince Mu."
