The Lady of the Red Chamber

When this joke about the Jia family came to the palace, Yun Qingxu just came back from Yangzhou and was paying her respects to Empress Dowager Yun at Fenghe Palace.

Empress Dowager Yun hasn't seen Yun Qinghuan and Situ Jin for many days, and she misses them terribly.The two of them were about to finish their ceremony, and they were summoned by Empress Dowager Yun.

"Eleven, how is your body? But there is still discomfort, or where is it uncomfortable?"

Situ Jin folded his hands and bent slightly, smiling like a bright moon in his arms: "Don't worry, the queen mother. Mrs. Yun Shao and Fan Shenyi have rejuvenated, and the emperor brother has given precious medicinal materials. The son and minister are already safe. It's just that the mother, stepmother and concubine are suffering from the night. Anxiety, my son is very disturbed and repents from time to time."

Empress Dowager Yun took Situ Jin's hand, patted it, and said, "You are so sensible, it makes people feel distressed. Eleventh, don't worry, the empress mother will definitely seek justice for you in this matter."

Situ Jin smiled and didn't say yes or bad, but changed the topic calmly, picked up some anecdotes on Yangzhou Road and told Empress Dowager Yun to listen to, coaxing Empress Dowager Yun back and forth.

However, Empress Dowager Yun did not forget Princess Yi who was ill.After talking to Situ Jin a few more times, he asked Lan Xia to take him to Feng'an Palace to visit.

Feng'an Palace is very close to Fenghe Palace.Empress Dowager Yun has already ordered that during this period of time, she needs to concentrate on worshiping the Buddha. Concubine Yi is not in good health and needs to rest. She ordered everyone in the harem not to disturb her.

So on the way Situ Jin went, he hardly met any maids and servants.It was also a good way to hide the news of Situ Jin's return to Beijing.

After Situ Jin left, Empress Dowager Yun asked Yun Qing to sit beside her.Looking at Yun Qingxuan's thin face and pointed chin, Empress Dowager Yun said affectionately: "Huanhua, you must be tired after traveling and traveling these days."

Yun Qingxuan smiled embarrassedly, jumped into Queen Mother Yun's arms, and secretly said good things for Situ Jin: "Auntie, I'm not tired. It's His Royal Highness who suffered a lot, but he kept it in his heart and didn't Will tell you."

Empress Dowager Yun sighed: "Why doesn't this palace know? He doesn't want to embarrass this palace and the emperor. It's also his father, who wants to keep the Zhen family and refuses to listen to anyone who persuades him."

Yun Qingxuan knew that what Empress Dowager Yun said was true.After all, the strange events that the Supreme Emperor has done these days have already reached their ears through carrier pigeons.

Yun Qinghuan didn't even know how many times she had complained to Lin Daiyu about her views on the Supreme Emperor in secret.

She even thought that since the Taishang Emperor was so insane that he cultivated immortals and made alchemy every day, it would be better to go to the Nine Heavens and practice with the Taishang Laojun as soon as possible, so as not to harm ordinary people like them.

Of course, even though she thought so, she wasn't stupid enough to say it.So at this time, Empress Dowager Yun complained about the Supreme Emperor, Yun Qingxu just pretended not to know, and nodded in agreement with "Yeah".

Obviously, Empress Dowager Yun has been complaining deeply about the Supreme Emperor in recent days.It's just that I carry it on weekdays, and there is no one to talk to.

Seeing his niece now, he wished he could express the depression of these days.After talking with Yun Qingxuan about the Supreme Emperor for a long time, they even started talking about the marriage between Jia Baoyu and Princess Jiatai.

"Speaking of which, His Majesty is not satisfied with the emperor's picky nose and eyes. It doesn't matter at all. Even the emperor's harem, His Majesty wants to intervene. His Majesty is most satisfied with Jiatai's marriage. I don't know if this is the Emperor's world or His Majesty's."

When encountering such a sensitive topic, Yun Qinghu could only laugh dryly.After thinking about it, Yun Qingxuan tried her best to find an angle that was least likely to cause fire from Queen Mother Yun's words, and followed Queen Mother Yun and asked: "Aunt, my nephew heard about Princess Jiatai and Princess Jiatai on the way back to Beijing. Mr. Jia's marriage. His Majesty even ordered the Ministry of Industry to build a princess mansion for Princess Jiatai on the edge of Rongguo Mansion. This is a rare kindness. On the way back to Beijing, I saw people talking about it and boasting about it. Your Majesty is broad-minded and magnanimous."

Empress Dowager Yun looked at Yun Qingxuan's smiling face, sighed, and said: "You child, after all, you still don't have much time to come back. Now the Jia family has made a lot of troubles. It's not a joke, but it's still a joke." Tired with the emperor."

For everything that happened in Rongguo Mansion, Yun Qingxuan was always curious about it continuously and for a long time.Hearing the Empress Dowager Yun mentioning this matter, she immediately pricked up her ears, eager to know whose taboo the Rongguo Mansion has violated these days.

The moth that Empress Dowager Yun was talking about was naturally the case of seeking medical treatment that had been raging in the capital during this period.

Coincidentally.

On the way to the imperial dining room, Lan Xia happened to hear the little eunuch who was out shopping happily describing the matter to the maids.

Lan Xia felt a little weird, so she asked the little eunuch to come to her.After he finished speaking, Lan Xia immediately reported it to Empress Dowager Yun after returning to the palace.

Yun Qingxuan was shocked when she learned that Jia Baoyu had suffered from insanity: "Auntie, what's going on?"

Empress Dowager Yun showed an undisguised dislike for the Rongguo Mansion: "Who knows? After all, the emperor just issued a decree to bestow a marriage, and Man Jingcheng mentioned it, and no one would say 'great joy'. It happened that their family was born at this critical moment. This incident happened. I don’t know, but I thought it was because His Majesty’s will was wrong, or that the son of the Jia family didn’t agree with Princess Jiatai, which offended the gods.”

Speaking of this, Empress Dowager Yun's expression was a little sleepy, she just felt that Rongguo's mansion was the nemesis of Emperor Detai.

Not only was Jia Yuanchun, who was sent to the palace first, a charmer.Even Jia Baoyu is not worrying.

Not to mention bumping into the eldest prince and the second prince at the Peony Banquet, but now he was born insane after the emperor gave him a marriage.

Although Empress Dowager Yun lived in the deep palace for a long time, she also knew that there were even faint rumors in the capital, saying that God was dissatisfied with Emperor Detai's will, and that such filthy punishment was sent down.

Although these nonsense have been dealt with by Emperor Detai with thunderous means, they are annoying to people after all.

After hearing these things, Yun Qingxuan just frowned, feeling extremely strange in her heart.

If she remembered correctly, in the entire original work of "A Dream of Red Mansions", Jia Baoyu went crazy like this only once.It was Aunt Zhao who was jealous and spent money to ask Ma Daopo to do it.

Could it be that the Rongguo Mansion has some secrets recently, which caused Aunt Zhao or someone else to be dissatisfied with Jia Baoyu, so she quietly asked Ma Daopo to tie him up as a villain?

Yun Qingxuan originally wanted to continue to ask the Empress Dowager Yun about some things about the Rongguo Duke's Mansion.But obviously, Empress Dowager Yun didn't know much about this matter.

So she had to suppress the doubts in her heart, thinking about going back to ask Yingchun.

Empress Dowager Yun talked so much with Yun Qingxuan and Situ Jin today, and she was tired.When Yun Qing saw her, she left in a timely manner, saying that she was going to visit Concubine Yi.

After talking with Concubine Yi, Yun Qingxuan went to the empress's palace to sit again.It wasn't until I walked all the places where I should go to meet that I finally left the palace.

It's just that since leaving Fenghe Palace, Yun Qingxuan has always been a little absent-minded.Even in the carriage leaving the palace, she kept thinking about Jia Baoyu's sudden madness.

Sitting opposite Yun Qingxuan, Bai Lu looked at her young lady's frowning face, and jokingly said, "Miss, what's wrong with you? Could it be that you haven't seen His Royal Highness for a few days, so you're starting to miss her now?"

Bailu and Baishuang had never been restrained in front of Yun Qinghuan.

Sure enough, Yun Qinghu was not angry when she heard Bai Lu say this, but gave Bai Lu a light look: "You girl, it's been three days since I last saw you, and you went to Jiewa. You actually started making arrangements for me."

Bai Lu pretended to be exaggerated and said: "Miss, what this servant said is clearly the truth, but you still blame this servant, you are really going to be wronged to death. After meeting Miss Biao, this servant will definitely let her seek justice for this servant."

After being interrupted by Bai Lu, Yun Qingxu's mood really relaxed a lot.

Thinking of Lin Daiyu's coming to live at home, Yun Qinghuan instantly forgot about Jia Baoyu.

who cares.

If you can't figure it out, you don't want to.

Anyway, no matter what happened to the Jia family, they couldn't escape the eyes of the emperor's cousin, so how could it be her turn to worry about it?

Emperor Detai recently appointed Lin Ruhai as an imperial envoy to go out to Yangzhou for business.

Lin Ruhai was worried that Lin Daiyu was an orphan and no one would take care of her, so she thought that Tuo Lin would take care of Lin Daiyu for a while.

Lin has always liked Daiyu, so she couldn't ask for it.

Knowing that Daiyu was coming to live at home, Yun Qingxuan was extremely happy, she was ready to sleep with Daiyu early on, counting on her fingers every day when Daiyu would enter the house.

As soon as he returned to the mansion today, Yun Qingxuan saw some strange faces in the mansion.

When he came to Lin's courtyard, he really saw Lin Daiyu sitting beside Lin talking with the two wives.

Yun Qing greeted the two elders with a smile, looked at Xueyan and asked: "Xueyan, my cousin is staying with me during this time. Have you packed her luggage?"

Xueyan Fushen: "Miss Biao, don't worry, everything has been ordered by the aunt and Miss Biao, and the mother-in-law has been sent to Miss Biao's courtyard."

Yun Qinghuan was instantly satisfied.

She took Lin Daiyu's hand and said with great interest: "Cousin, let's sleep together. This way we can have a private conversation at night."

Lin Daiyu bent her lips to look at Yun Qingxuan, and nodded slightly: "It's good."

Seeing that the two sisters seemed to have endless things to say, she covered her lips with a handkerchief and said with a smile: "I know you sisters have endless things to say. Go back quickly, I will let the kitchen prepare some pastries and fruits, and you can have a good time." .”

Yun Qinghuan smiled a little embarrassedly, flirted with the Lin family and the Yuan family for a while, and then retired with Lin Daiyu.

Back in the room, looking at Lin Daiyu's clear and beautiful face, Yun Qingxuan somehow, the four characters "marriage between wood and stone" appeared in his mind.

Seeing these four words, Yun Qingxuan inevitably thought of Jia Baoyu going crazy again.

Thinking that Lin Daiyu must know the situation of Rongguo Mansion better than Empress Dowager Yun, she took Lin Daiyu's hand and asked, "Cousin, have you heard what happened in Rongguo Mansion recently?"

Lin Daiyu sighed, frowned, and said: "Our Lin family and the Rongguo Mansion are relatives no matter what, so I must have heard about such a big event. I don't know how the second elder brother is doing now? Can we find a cure? .”

Yun Qingxuan always thought of Aunt Zhao and Ma Daopo, so she asked directly: "Could it be that there is another public case in the Rongguo Mansion recently? For example, who accidentally hit another person's face with lamp oil, otherwise Jia Why are you doing this, son?"

Lin Daiyu felt a little strange when she heard this: "I've heard that it's rumored in the capital that the second elder brother bumped into something unclean and got killed. That's why you said there was a public case?"

Yun Qingxuan's eyebrows twitched, thinking: That's right.Even in the original "A Dream of Red Mansions", no one knew that Jia Baoyu and Wang Xifeng's sudden madness was actually caused by Aunt Zhao behind the scenes.After all, this matter is really secretive.It was obvious that she asked like this,

Seeing that Lin Daiyu was still looking at her suspiciously, Yun Qingxuan did not tell Lin Daiyu her conjectures, but laughed, trying to divert Lin Daiyu's attention through other incidents: "Cousin, such a major event happened in Rongguo Mansion. Did Mrs. Jia not tell my uncle that she wanted to invite you to visit her?"

After all, Jia Baoyu's obsession with Lin Daiyu is still very deep.Maybe Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang thought that as long as Lin Daiyu called out once or twice, Jia Baoyu might be able to wake up.

In fact, Yun Qingxuan just said it casually, but she didn't expect that it was hit by her.

Because Mother Jia really thought so, but Lin Ruhai blocked her back.

Lin Daiyu shook her head and said: "Grandmother invited me to come, but my father stopped me. I just said that I returned to Beijing from Yangzhou, and I was exhausted. I have been in a bad mood recently, and my aunt has taken me to Qin Guogong's residence to rest. It is not easy to go out. In this way, even my grandmother has no reason to force me to come to the door."

"Father also told me: Jia's mansion has not been peaceful recently, and the second elder brother wants Princess Shangjiatai, so it's better not to have any contact with him during this time."

Yun Qinghuan frantically nodded, expressing her approval for her uncle.

Lin Ruhai was appointed temporarily this time, and Lin Daiyu suddenly returned to the capital from Yangzhou.

Both sides were in a hurry, and there was no time to ventilate beforehand.

Because Yun Qing slowed them down by water, they couldn't even deliver the letter, which caused the Lin family to be unprepared for anything.

If Lin Daiyu went to visit Jia Baoyu at Jia's mansion at this time, Yun Qingxuan believed that Jia's mother would definitely leave Lin Daiyu to stay in Rongguo Mansion for a few days on the grounds that there was no one in Lin's mansion and it would inevitably cause disturbance.

This is also the reason why Lin Ruhai sent Lin Daiyu to Qin Guogong's mansion so quickly.

After finally getting out of that tiger's mouth and wolf's den, why do you want to go back again?

Lin Daiyu looked at Yun Qingxuan's expression of approval, and inexplicably wanted to laugh.

What she didn't tell Yun Qinghuan was that she always felt that there seemed to be a voice in her mind telling her not to go to Rongguo Mansion.

It seemed that once she came to the door, her loving father and her lovely cousin would all be destroyed.Everything she has now will be rewritten accordingly.

Although she doesn't know why, as long as Lin Daiyu thinks about it a little bit, her heart hurts so much that she can't breathe.Even in this heartache, she felt a resentment that came from nowhere, an indescribable but deep-seated sadness.

Looking at Yun Qingxuan's carefree smile, Lin Daiyu kept the matter in her heart calmly.

Now that a decision has been made, there is no need to speak out to increase troubles.

In any case, she is very happy now.With her father around, she will live a happier life in the future.

This is enough.
