[Red Chamber] I am Lin Daiyu and her uncle

Not long after the Shangsi Festival, the third prince Xia Xiang held a wedding ceremony. He married Pei, the niece of Prince Zhongshun, who was also from a princely family.

Nanke is a state-owned system, and all princes and princesses must get married and get titles when they get married, and only princes can leave the palace to build their own mansions.

Not long after the third prince got married, he was conferred the title of King Yu by the Holy Master, and built the Palace of King Yu outside the palace.

At the same time, Concubine Zhen began to feel unwell after receiving the letter from Jiangnan's family, and later became sick all day long.

The Holy Majesty was worried about the concubine's health, so he ordered Zhen's family in Jiangnan to visit her in Beijing.

Concubine Xian is also very anxious, there is no one else, but she knows very well that according to the Holy Majesty's feelings for the concubine, if there is any good or bad for the concubine at that time, at least one or two years will not see the marriage, Shenjiao is already eighteen, After another two years, it will be twenty!

Originally, she may have exaggerated when she called Shenjiao "old girl", but if she really reached her twenties and talked about marriage, it would make people laugh. Even if she married in, it would inevitably become a talking point for others.

This is what she, an aunt, doesn't want to see.

Xianfu Palace.

"aunt!"

Seeing that Shen Jiao had arrived, Concubine Xian hurriedly pulled her aside to sit down, and then briefly told her about Concubine Toffee's serious illness.

Shen Jiao grew up in the palace since she was a child, so she naturally understood the concubine Xian's implication. Because she had something on her mind, she lowered her head and didn't say a word.

Concubine Xian became more and more anxious when she saw that she was silent.

"What's the matter with you? You're usually generous, but why are you twitching at this time?"

Shen Jiao opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but stopped when he reached the edge of his mouth, and repeated this, making the already anxious Concubine Xian helpless.

"What's the matter with you kid? Ah? Just say something! Don't hesitate, you're going to kill my aunt!"

After Shen Jiao pondered for a while, she blushed and leaned into Concubine Xian's ear...

After hearing this, Concubine Xian's face softened, but she still frowned. After pondering for a while, she said: "It's really tricky."

But it's much easier to have a candidate.

So he patted Shenjiao's hand instead, and comforted him in a warm voice: "Don't worry, I finally found someone who can close my eyes, and my aunt will take care of it for you."

When Shen Jiao heard this, the blush on her face deepened.

Concubine Xian couldn't help but joke again when she saw that her niece, who was usually vigorous and resolute, was now acting like a girl.

Since Xia Xu was busy serving Concubine Zhen's illness recently, Concubine Xian left Shen Jiao in the palace for a few days.

After Dai Yujing's incident last time, she was grateful to her in her heart, and she got closer to Shen Jiao than before. Usually, only Shen Jiao went to play with her, but now she will take the initiative to visit Xianfu Palace to find Shen Jiao.

The fifth princess was also very jealous because of this incident, and Daiyu coaxed her several times before giving up.

Concubine Xian picked an appropriate opportunity to mention this matter with Xia Xu, and asked to find out the portraits of the unmarried and unengaged Xinke Scholars on the day of the Spring River Conference, so that Shen Jiao could identify them for herself.

Originally, this matter was out of harmony with etiquette, but firstly, Xianfei is a "favored concubine", and since she is a "favorite concubine", it is understandable to have some privileges; Concubine Xian was very concerned about this matter, so she readily agreed; in the end, this is really not a big deal, keep a low profile, and no one will touch this bad luck.

In fact, Concubine Xian is also gambling, she watched Shen Jiao grow up, and she saw Shen Jiao's shy look when he mentioned that matter, she is also a person who has experienced it, so she can understand it very well.But the difficulty lies in the fact that the person Shenjiao likes doesn't know if he has a wife or has a marriage contract.

If not, everyone is happy; if there is, no matter how good you are, you can't marry!

Although Shen Jiao vaguely revealed that it might be the elder brother of the Lin family that he met that day, how can marriage be a trifling matter?If you make a mistake, do you want to stay with me for a lifetime?

So, for now, the only thing we can do is be more careful.

Fortunately, it was confirmed by Shen Jiao that it was indeed Lin Qing that she saw that day, who had neither a wife nor a marriage contract, and was a "talented and beautiful" Tanhualang.

Not to mention that she came from the Lin family in Gusu, even Lin Ruhai's only daughter got along well with them early on. When she gets married, she can avoid the "sister-in-law" dispute.

As the saying goes: Marriage is determined by nature.

Now that I think about it, it does make sense.Earlier, I was busy with this matter, but when I arrived, the "opportunity" was right in front of me.

It can be seen that "planting flowers intentionally will not bloom, but unintentionally planting willows and willows will make shade".

So fate is such a wonderful thing...

The next thing was a matter of course, Xia Xu summoned Lin Ruhai back to the capital.

Concubine Zhen herself was seriously ill, and His Majesty allowed the Zhen family to visit Beijing to "suspend" and "suspend" the Jiangnan incident. Therefore, Lin Ruhai should take a short vacation in Beijing now, and there is no delay.

The Jia family and the Zhen family were old friends, and when they learned that the Zhen family was going to Beijing soon, they immediately packed up inside and out to welcome this old family friend.

In the evening, Rongxi Hall.

After Jia Zheng greeted Jia Mu, and said a few words with him, Jia Mu ordered people to go out, leaving only her mother and her son.

Jia's mother didn't speak, and Jia Zheng didn't dare to speak rashly, so the room was silent for a while.

"Recently, His Royal Highness Prince Yu has adopted a new side concubine."

Hearing this, Jia Zheng raised his lowered head abruptly, his expression slightly astonished.

Jia Mu didn't care about him, and added meaningfully, "She is the daughter of Zhou Fang, the official minister."

Zhou Fang, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, is the cousin of the third prince's birth mother, and is the backbone of the civil servant faction that supports the third prince.

"K-ke, His Royal Highness Prince Yu is just newly married and accepting a side concubine, isn't it obvious that he is slapping the princess in the face?"

Mother Jia ignored her and continued to sigh: "Now the concubine is in poor health, and His Royal Highness Yu Wang took the lead in marrying a side concubine. According to the queen's wishes, Yuan'er may have to wait a few more years before entering the mansion."

Jia Zheng listened and became anxious, "Yuan'er has served the nobles in the palace for many years, there is no merit but hard work, there is no such thing as the Zhou family, and our Jia family can't do it. Besides, Yuan'er is getting older, and then he will enter the palace. , what should I do after the childbearing age?"

After hearing this, Jia Mu didn't make a sound for a long time.

In fact, what Jia Zheng was worried about was also what she was worried about.Originally, everything went according to plan, but the Holy Majesty suddenly launched a purge on Jiangnan, disrupting the original plan.

Thinking about the upcoming arrival of the Zhen family to Beijing, Mother Jia couldn't help but become active, "That brother from the Lin family is not married yet."

"Mother, you..." Jia Zheng was very surprised that Jia's mother hadn't given up on marrying the Lin family.

Jia's mother said in a very helpless tone: "In the next few years, I don't know what the situation will be. Although the fifth prince is also a good man, it's not that you don't know about the Shen family and us. Only His Highness Wang has a slight chance of winning. Now that the situation in the south of the Yangtze River is getting worse, His Highness Yu Wang is also aware of it. If we don’t take the initiative to make some changes, we will definitely become "chicken ribs". It's getting worse."

Jia Zheng thought about it for a while, but still felt that something was wrong, "Mother, the elder brother of the Lin family has successfully chosen a good man, and his future is boundless. He has already been favored by several powerful families, and his power and wealth are even greater than ours. And nothing less, so..."

Mother Jia squinted at him, "I don't understand what you said? The Zhen family will go to Beijing the next day, and the concubine is still alive! After all, we are on the same boat, so let them talk about it in person. If you don’t agree, it’s better to think about it in the long run than to sit and wait.”

At the end, he sighed deeply: "Zi Ruhai recognized that Lin family brother as a brother, and the situation began to change drastically, so that it became the current mess. I am getting old, and I can't last long. When the time comes, you juniors will be in charge of the house. , I still don’t know what to do, alas—”

Jia Zhengsu is the most filial, how can he listen to what the old mother said?So she burst into tears, "Mother! You are a blessed person, good days are yet to come, how can you say such depressing words? It is because of your unfilial sons and daughters that you let mother worry about us everywhere!"

Should I say it or not, or Jia Mu is partial to her younger son. Whenever it is time to stage the "Mother and Child Love", Jia Amnesty is nowhere to be seen. Looking at Jia Zheng, no matter what he thinks in his heart, at least his filial piety on the face is unparalleled. Can be picky, old kids, old kids, who doesn't like to hear something nice?

Sure enough, Mother Jia couldn't help being moved when she saw her youngest son thinking so much about herself, and seeing how his son was still crying at a very old age, her heart ached even more, and she had some thoughtful words with him before letting him go.

After Jia Zheng returned to his yard, he thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to send Lin Ruhai a letter of divorce.

The Lin family is not what it used to be today, he can't talk to the younger generation like Lin Qing, and the members of the family are not very capable, only Baoyu and Lan'er have hope in terms of fame and fame, Lan'er is still young, Baoyu is the most important thing now, if Lin Qing can let Lin Teach him a thing or two, and he will benefit endlessly in the future...

However, it just so happened that Lin Ruhai returned to Beijing in a low-key manner. No one knew about it except the emperor, and even Lin Qing hadn't heard of it beforehand, so the letter he sent just happened to pass by Lin Ruhai, it was God's will.

After the Spring River Banquet, Li Yifang awarded Hanlin Editing, Lin Qing awarded Hanlin Editing, and Liu Daoan awarded Zhongshu Sheren.

Although the three of them are not in the same place, they are close, and occasionally invite them to get together.

This day when Lin Qing came back from get off work, he was told that the old man had returned and was waiting for him in the study.

Lin Qing was surprised and delighted, why didn't he get any news?

Not caring about anything else, Lin Qing hurried to the study.

As soon as the door was opened, Lin Ruhai was already sitting at the desk, holding a volume of books and reading carefully. He heard the sound, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Lin Qing.

Smiling and said: "Qing'er."

Lin Qing saw him in such a disfigured state, and as soon as he called out "big brother", his eyes turned red immediately.
