[Qing wear + Red Mansions] Guide to the Prince's Pampering Wife

The Zhen family has been rooted in the south of the Yangtze River for many years, and has quite a bit of power. However, in recent years, it has not been very peaceful. It connects with local merchants and officials, forms cliques for private interests, and eliminates dissidents. There is nowhere to ask.

This alone is enough for Kangxi to kill the whole family of the Zhen family. Besides, the evil deeds of the Zhen family are unspeakable, bullying men and women, and being domineering are commonplace. They also buy and sell officials. In order to ease the pressure on the national treasury, some unimportant idle jobs were sold to the common people by default in the form of donating officials, but they had to be handled by the imperial court, and there were strict qualification reviews.

But the Zhen family intervened in the matter of donating officials privately, not only opening up relationships for those who are not qualified to donate, but also privately accepting donations, which is tantamount to taking money from the treasury and putting it in their own pockets!

The Jia family and the Zhen family are family friends, so they also know something about this matter. The last time about Xue Pan's matter, Jia's mother asked the Zhen family first, but the matter involved Yinzuo, and the Zhen family did not dare to be professional, so she contacted him repeatedly. On the eight Fujin.

Naturally, the Zhen family is not all for the Jia family, they have long been involved with the Bafu Jin, because the Zhen family has great ambitions, even if they become the emperor of the earth, they will be dissatisfied, they still want to fight for the merits of the dragon, and seek a higher level. position of power.

At the beginning they took refuge with the eldest brother, but the eldest brother had no intention of competing for the heir, Nalan Mingzhu was sent abroad, and the eldest brother's party lost its spirit. Seeing that there was no hope of a comeback, the Zhen family planned to find another family.

It just so happened that Fujin Bafujin revealed this meaning, and it was what he said. No one thought that Fujin Bafujin would be so arrogant that he would contact foreign ministers on his own initiative, thinking that everything was ordered by Brother Ba. The Zhen family felt that Brother Ba was a A talent that can be molded, so he switched to the eight blessings...

Not to mention whether the eighth elder brother has the intention of competing for the crown prince, but the Zhen family has violated the Kangxi taboo by trying to provoke the prince to fight, and he can still contact the eight blessings who are in the deep palace... What is it to put someone in the palace attempt?

This is not the most important thing, what's more terrible is that the Zhen family used to embezzle and embezzle relief funds and food, causing countless deaths and injuries to the people. Suspected of collaborating with the enemy.

One by one, each of them is enough to kill the Zhen family eight times out of ten times. Now that they have been punished for several crimes, it is not wrong to confiscate the family and send them to jail.

But Jia's mother can't accept this result. The Jia family and the Zhen family have been close to each other for generations. A backer?

The four kings and eight princes have gradually declined, and in recent years there are only a few who have been more promising—the king of Nan'an County made a mistake, was rejected by the emperor, and is no longer useful; Wang Ziteng did not make any serious mistakes, but fell ill last year and died.Now the Jia family can only count on the Zhen family, if the Zhen family disappears, it will be a great disadvantage to the Jia family!

Oh, and Lin Ruhai!

Jia's mother hurriedly called out: "Yuanyang, go and ask my uncle to come over."

The Lin family, Lin Ruhai was silent for a moment after listening to the boy's reply, and said, "Tell people, I'm out of Beijing on business, and I won't be back until half a month later."

Anyway, there was no one in the Jia family, so they didn't know whether he really went to Beijing for business.

The boy responded and was about to go out to pass on a message, but Lin Ruhai stopped him again, hesitated for a moment and said: "Forget it, let me go."

He knew what Jia's mother was going to say, and he didn't want to go at first, but as a son-in-law, he still couldn't just watch the Jia family run behind the Zhen family like a blindfolded donkey, and then fell into the pit together. .

After Lin Ruhai freshened up, he took someone to Jia's house. When he met Jia's mother, Lin Ruhai greeted him. Jia's mother hurriedly asked someone to help him up, and said straight to the point: "The family is of flesh and blood, and they don't pay attention to such trivial etiquette. I called you here today because I heard that When I heard about the Zhen family, I was very panicked, I don't know what happened, you are the court's arm, do you know what's going on inside?"

Lin Ruhai helped Jia's mother to sit down, and then told about the Zhen family.

Jia Mu asked, "Do you know how to judge?"

Lin Ruhai sighed: "The censor listed the crimes of the Zhen family at the court meeting. The emperor was furious and ordered the family to be ransacked. All adult men will be beheaded. The female family members will not be slaves. The underage men will be exiled to Ninggu Pagoda to serve as slaves to armored men. They will not live forever. Return to Beijing."

Mother Jia clutched her chest, her heart was pounding with fear, her eyes were wet, and she said to Lin Ruhai: "The Zhen family has been friends with our family for many years, if we ignore it, it will make people's teeth cold, our family can't speak in front of nobles, You are valued by the emperor, if you have the opportunity, you should speak for the Zhen family."

Lin Ruhai knew that this was why Jia's mother asked him to come, but Yu Gong, the Zhen family's crimes were heinous and unforgivable, and he didn't want to plead for such a person. They consider?

Lin Ruhai said: "It's not that I don't help, it's just that the emperor is in a rage. Every time he thinks of the tens of thousands of people who died in vain in the south of the Yangtze River, he can't eat and can't sleep. He can't wait to tear the Zhen family into pieces. Not only is it useless to plead at this time, but It will offend the emperor. It might be better to wait for the emperor to calm down and plead for mercy slowly."

Lin Ruhai thought that it was no wonder that the emperor would calm down, but he was afraid that whenever he thought of the Zhen family, his teeth would ache with hatred.

Mother Jia didn't know about this, but she wasn't stupid either. She also knew that the Zhen family had committed such a crime, and the emperor didn't know when he would be able to calm down. By then, the Zhen family would have been reduced to dust, so what could be done if he asked the emperor to forgive him? ?After all, I can't help the Jia family.

Mother Jia was not reconciled, she thought for a while and said, "Ask Daiyu to invite the Sixth Prince to come and have a try. I heard that the Sixth Prince is very favored by the Emperor. His words should be useful."

Lin Ruhai looked at Jia Mu in surprise, this time she was really annoyed.

Does this sound like it?

He is the son-in-law of Jia's family, so it's fine for Jia's mother to ask him for something, why doesn't she even let her grandson and son-in-law go?Yinzuo's status is special, Lin Ruhai is a serious father-in-law, and he dare not trouble Yinzuo easily, why does Jia's mother take it for granted?

If it's something else, it's fine, it's more troublesome at most, it's okay to ask Yin Zuo to take action, but can the Zhen family's affairs be taken care of casually?

Yinzuo is favored because he is cautious!

All these years he has looked cynical, but in fact he has not meddled in anything he shouldn't have meddled in, but if he wants to take care of the Zhen family's affairs, what do the other princes think of him?What does the prince think of him?What does the emperor think of him?

Those who knew said that he was helping Liu Fujin's grandmother's family, but those who didn't know thought he was in collusion with the Zhen family?What's more, do you suspect that he also intends to get involved in the throne?

This is fatal!

Lin Ruhai didn't know whether Mother Jia didn't understand, or whether she only cared about the glory of the Jia family and ignored it, so she said in a cold voice, "Mother-in-law, please be careful! The sixth prince is Daiyu's husband, but he is also the prince of the Qing Dynasty. He is fair and honest, and will never condone traitors!"

Mother Jia frowned, looking dissatisfied.

Lin Ruhai just sighed, and persuaded in a low voice: "It's not that I'm refusing, but it's best for my mother-in-law not to interfere in this matter. The emperor is furious, and it's not enough to deal with the Zhen family. Right now, there is nowhere to vent his anger. At that time, anyone who bumped into it would have their head bruised, the courtiers are like this, and the powerful families are like this, do you want the Jia family and the Zhen family to be buried together?"

Mother Jia's face froze, and then she remembered that the Jia family was not innocent in this matter. One of the major crimes committed by the Zhen family was to provoke the prince to fight, and the Jia family had a part in this matter.At this time, the emperor didn't mention it, maybe he didn't know about it, or maybe he didn't care about it. If he rashly came out and angered the emperor, he wouldn't be exiled by ransacking his family.

Mother Jia was silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "Forget it, after all, the Jia family is incompetent and can't help."

Lin Ruhai didn't feel relieved, and just cupped his hands and said, "One more thing to tell my mother-in-law, these days the Zhen family must be begging everywhere, just to be on the safe side, it's best not to have any contact with her again. You can save yourself first, and then you can help me in the future."

Jia Mu nodded: "Got it."

Having finished speaking, Lin Ruhai left.Mother Jia looked at the direction in which he left and was silent for a while, then said: "After all, it's not as good as before, even the son-in-law is divorced from us."

Yuanyang smiled and said: "What did the old ancestor say? The servant girl looked at my uncle very attentively. I have considered for us what to do and what not to do. You just need to relax and enjoy your life. It's strange that people say that a son-in-law is half This is not the truth!"

Jia's mother nodded at her: "You have such a mouth!"

Yuanyang patted her mouth lightly: "Look at the mouth of this servant! The ancestors are like a mirror in their hearts, so why should the servant talk too much? It can be seen that he has little experience, and he can't hide something if he knows something. He can't help but show it off." , it made the ancestors laugh, and you have to teach the servants more."

Jia's mother was so teased that she laughed, and said: "Okay, okay, it's just your tongue. Go and tell girl Tanchun that I'm sick. I don't see any visitors these days. Let her take care of the house carefully. Don't worry about it." Overlooked."

Yuanyang Fushen should be, wait for Jiamu to lie down and rest, ask the little maid to support her, and go to Tanchun by herself.I have to tell Tanchun about the story here, so that she can know what to do.

Yuanyang left, Jia Mu lay on the bed but couldn't sleep, she couldn't help but think of Lin Ruhai.

She knew that Lin Ruhai was separated from Jia's family, probably from the time when Daiyu left Jia's family.

Daiyu said well when she left, she only said that she would go back early to make arrangements for Lin Ruhai's return to Beijing, but Jia's mother knew that she was concerned about Wang's calculations.Daiyu is not to blame for this matter, it is the Wang family who acted inappropriately and tried to ruin Daiyu's reputation, forcing Daiyu to marry Baoyu. When she didn't see her, Jia Mu couldn't help being angry and sad.

The son-in-law and the granddaughter, one is the minister of the Ministry of Industry and the other is the princess of the county. They should be powerful backers. With this relationship, it is not impossible to make the Jia family comeback again, but the Wang family is willing to die, which pushes people away. !

Thinking of the Wang family, how can Jia's mother not hate it?

Mrs. Jia hated Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang was also angry. Tanchun got Jia's mother's letter, so she wanted to take care of everyone in the house, but other people were fine, but Mrs. Wang was not very happy.

"You can't come in and out at will, and you're not allowed to see guests at will. Third girl, are you the housekeeper or the prisoners?" The person who spoke was from Zhou Rui's family. She was Mrs. Wang's confidant. Naturally, she would not come forward to embarrass Tanchun, so her confidant had to say such unpleasant words, she smiled on her face, but her words were not polite, "Even if the girl has face now, my wife is your aunt."

Tanchun laughed and said, "What are you talking about? Naturally, I dare not restrain my mother. It's just that my grandmother has a life, and my granddaughter has to obey. It's an extraordinary time, so we must be more cautious. After a few days, my wife will beat me and punish me." I can do it."

Zhou Rui's family chuckled: "Miss is joking, it's too late for my wife to hurt her, so how can she be ruthless and punish her? You mother and daughter don't need to be so fussy. Since it's what the old lady wants, we'll just listen to the girl."

Tanchun quickly thanked her, but Mrs. Wang just waved her hand and told her to go to work.

But Mrs. Wang is not a person who listens to persuasion, nor is she smart enough, but she doesn't care about it on the surface, but she doesn't take Tanchun's words seriously.Tanchun is of course careful, but Mrs. Wang has been married to the Jia family for decades, and her power is far from being shaken by Tanchun, so even if Tanchun took strict precautions, Mrs. Wang still took in two of the Zhen family under her nose. big box.

Mrs. Wang looked at the box full of gold bricks, her eyes were so bright that they could blind people.

"I'm afraid they are still planning a comeback." Zhou Rui's family said.

With these two boxes of gold bricks, the Zhen family still has a fortune, and it is possible to make a comeback.

Mrs. Wang sneered: "What's the comeback? The adult men in their family are all dead, and the younger ones are sent to Ninggu Pagoda. I don't know how many will survive. How can they make a comeback? Could it be that the family's female relatives seduce high-ranking officials and dignitaries to reverse the case for them? ?”

Zhou Rui's family was stunned: "What does the wife mean?"

Mrs. Wang laughed and said: "It's good if they don't come back. No one from the Zhen family comes, so the gold is naturally ours. If I leave it to Baoyu, I don't have to worry about it anymore."

Zhou Rui's family clasped their hands together and said with a smile: "It's still my wife who has an idea, and the maidservant didn't think of this level."

……

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the 37th year of Kangxi's New Year. This time the New Year is very lively. Several elder brothers have married Fujin, and there are several side Fujin, and several little grandchildren and granddaughters have been added. The family banquet A piece of fun.

During the meal, Qi Fujin retched, and called Yin Zuo to feel his pulse. They were happy, and everyone was even happier. They congratulated Qi Fujin and Qi's biological mother Dai Jiashu, and Dai Yu also congratulated Qi Fujin , Seventh Fujin stroked his stomach with a happy face, but Eighth Fujin next to him snorted lightly.

The joyous atmosphere froze immediately, and Qifujin's face fell "shua", and she was about to retort immediately, Daiyu pressed her hand, and said lightly: "Let me talk to my younger siblings about the maintenance during pregnancy, and I will follow along." Our grandfather has also learned something."

She lowered her voice to comfort Qi Fujin: "You are porcelain, she is rubble, if she breaks pots, let her go, we don't mess with it."

Qifujin laughed: "Sister-in-law Liu is still generous."

Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled. If she had met someone like Bafujin in Jia's house before, she would definitely have argued. But now that life is going well, her mentality is more tolerant and peaceful.

It's not that you can't argue with the Eight Fortunes, it's just that it's unnecessary, and it's useless to waste words with her. If the New Year's atmosphere is ruined and you want to make a fuss for nothing, isn't it worth the candle?

Daiyu and Qi Fujin talked about maintenance during pregnancy, but directly ignored Ba Fujin. Ba Fujin blushed with anger, and said with a sneer, "Sister-in-law Liu knows a lot, but I don't know when she will be pregnant too?"

These words really touched her heart, but Daiyu didn't care, because she knew it wasn't that she couldn't conceive, it was just that the senior brother was afraid of accidents and wouldn't call her conceived, but Qi Fujin was furious and said with a sneer, "The eighth brother and sister are talking about other people, Aren't you pregnant yourself?"

Bafujin snorted and said, "I got married late, so I'm not as anxious as Sixth Sister-in-law."

Qifujin said: "Sixth Brother and Sixth Sister-in-Law are loving and harmonious husband and wife, sooner or later there will be a child, so she doesn't have to worry about it?"

Ba Fujin's face was livid, she could laugh at Daiyu for not having a child, but she couldn't say that Yinzuo treated Daiyu badly.Six elder brothers are famous for being considerate to Liu Fujin. Even the mother-in-law Defei treats her like her own daughter. Who doesn't envy Liu Fujin's blessings among the wives in and out of the palace?

And what about the eight blessings?Notoriously arrogant and domineering, he was punished by his father-in-law Kangxi and grounded, and his mother-in-law Wei has never seen her face a few times—of course, it is not ruled out that the eight blessings are grounded when they get married, and they rarely have the opportunity to leave their own palace.

The relationship between the eighth Fujin and the eighth elder brother is just mediocre, not to mention compared with the six Fujin, even the other Fujin are not as good, at least they did not stay alone on the first night of their wedding, nor were they grounded by their master, right?

Qi Fujin's words could be regarded as poking into Ba Fujin's lungs, she glared at Daiyu, turned her head away and stopped talking.

Qifujin apologized and said: "Sister-in-law Liu, I seem to have caused you trouble, she won't hold grudges against you, will she?"

"It's okay, it's up to her whether she remembers the grudge or not, anyway, there won't be any trouble." Eighth Brother stared at it.

What Daiyu didn't expect was that Bafujin did not make any waves, but began to act like a demon.

The specific manifestation is that she started to break her head with Daiyu silently, maybe she lost in the conjugal love party, Bafujin was very concerned about this, but whenever Yinzuo and Daiyu showed affection, she would do the same with the eighth elder brother.

For example, during the Flower Festival on the twelfth day of the second lunar month, Yinzuo organized a coming-of-age ceremony for Daiyu with great care, and it was a lively and lively birthday.So on Bafu Jin's birthday, she also insisted on Ba Ye to prepare a surprise for her.

For example, Yin Zuo personally designed a set for Daiyu, and Ba Fujin also pestered Ba Age to ask for it.

For example, if Yin Zuo takes Daiyu out to play, Ba Fujin will also play with Ba Prince.

Yinzuo and Daiyu didn't notice it at first, but after many times, they realized something was wrong.The two looked at each other, both a little speechless——what kind of elementary school students' comparability is this?

Although it is harmless, it is unavoidable that it is a little strange to always be stared at and compared like this.Yin Zuo rolled his eyes and said with a snicker, "Then we'll fix her."

That night, Yin Zuo washed Daiyu's feet with his own hands, and the next day Ba Fujin had a quarrel with Ba Age.

After a few days, the couple reconciled, and Yin Zuo cooked for Daiyu himself. The next day, Ba Fujin and Ba elder brother had another fight, and then Ba Fujin almost burned the kitchen. After eating a plate of unrecognizable dishes raw, the imperial physician was invited that night.

A few days later, Daiyu suddenly wanted to eat watermelon. Yinzuo thought of many ways, and finally found two big watermelons in April weather, which made Gongli talk about it.Ba Fujin didn't want to eat watermelon, she wanted to eat peaches, it was hard for Brother Ba, and after searching for a long time, the couple broke up again.

A few days later, Yinzuo changed his tricks again, this time he and Daiyu had a little disagreement, Daiyu drove him to sleep in the study, but Yinzuo disagreed, and made up for the night on the couch outside .

When the eighth elder brother heard the news, he found Yinzuo before the eighth Fujin started to make trouble, and sighed: "My dear sixth brother, you just let the younger brother go!"

Yin Zuo secretly smiled in his heart, but his face didn't show at all, he asked in surprise, "What do you mean, what's wrong with me?"

Brother Ba looked at him suspiciously: "You really don't know?"

Yinzuo shook his head in a daze: "I don't know, how can I know what's going on when you say such a thing without thinking."

The eighth elder brother didn't bother to care whether he was pretending or not, he just briefly talked about his experience these days, rubbed his forehead and said tiredly: "This life is too tossing!"

Yinzuo's expression changed from surprise to shock: "So you also washed feet, cooked for the eighth sibling, and looked for peaches?"

The eighth elder brother nodded numbly: "Yes, if you don't agree, you will make trouble, what can I do? I didn't say, you can just give Liu sister-in-law something, why wash her feet and cook for her? Is it too conniving?

After a moment of silence, Yin Zuo said: "Because... I, Fujin, is pregnant!"

Eighth Brother: "...?"

Yin Zuo is straightforward: "Pregnant people try not to bend over, so I wash her feet; I cook medicinal food for her to recuperate her body; she wants to eat watermelon, but I don't want to care about it, but pregnant women Easy to get emotional, she cries when she can’t eat, and it’s not good for the child, so I spent so much effort to find it; as for the bed... She feels uncomfortable in her stomach, and she is afraid that it will affect my sleep, so she told me to sleep in the study, But I was worried, so I slept outside."

The more he talked, the more silent Eighth Prince became.

Finally Yinzuo asked: "Is the eighth sibling pregnant too?"

Eighth Brother: "..."
