The Weight of the Red Mansion Walks the Road of Life

Chapter 40

"Yuan girl is a good day on the first day of the first lunar month, and she will definitely be a noble fate in the future." Ever since she was sensible, Yuan Chun had heard such words.

This was originally what my grandmother meant. It is said that my grandmother really wanted Aunt Min to enter the palace back then, but my grandfather didn't want to get involved too much with the harem plot, and he really loved his little daughter so that he could take Min away first. Aunt promised to Uncle Lin.

Later, the mother was also persuaded.

After all, the future grandma talked about was too tempting and wonderful, even she couldn't help yearning for it.

My mother has been exposed to the saying that women of the royal family are virtuous if they are incapable of talent, but if they enter the palace to seek Qingyun Road, such education is obviously not enough-no matter what their background is, they can't be the prince's concubine. The imperial concubine obviously does not need the ability of the royal housekeeper to be a director.

Therefore, most of the time, Yuanchun still focuses on learning piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, etiquette, and the ability to be a housekeeper is at best a pastime in his spare time.

After all, according to what Jiamu said, as the lord of the first palace in the future, she will also have to manage her own palace.

At that time, almost all people selectively ignored the setbacks and sufferings they might suffer in the future, and only cared about the bright future of the so-called Qingyun Road.

Even at that time, didn't I feel that there was a lot to do, and I was full of joy and anticipation.

Then, at the age of 15, she entered the palace with a small bundle full of bank notes and a change of clothes or two, accompanied only by a harp.

Then, she did not enter the backyard of the crown prince or the powerful prince as she wished, and was only sent to be a female official next to Concubine Li.

This is not the future that was originally envisioned.

If it was another time, Yuan Chun would naturally be disappointed, but at that time, there was news that her natal brother Jia Zhu was seriously ill, and it was the kind of serious disease that was basically about to die, Yuan Chun couldn't care less about being disappointed now No, just full of worry.

No one can deny the importance of her natal family to a woman, especially for a girl like Yuan Chun whose life is uncertain, she can only count on her natal family, or in other words, the future of her father and brother.

Jia Zheng had been an official for ten years, and to speak of unfilial piety, even Yuan Chun could see that her father's career prospects were limited, and all she could count on was this elder brother.

But fortunately, it is probably due to the auspiciousness of the auspicious people. Even though Jia Zhu was indeed very ill, he gradually recovered. Although he missed the exam once, it is worthwhile that he was fine in the end. Yuan Chun secretly recited Buddha once.

Later, Jia Zhu passed the provincial examination all the way, and then went to the palace examination.

Then, seeing the old minister's grandson finally reminded the emperor of the old minister's granddaughter, so he gave Yuan Chun a lifetime, promised to the twelve princes born by Yuan Chun's master, Li Cong, Tu Mingzun.

Yuanchun delayed her youth for seven years, and finally at the age of 22, Feng Guanxia walked out of the gate of Rongguo Mansion.

Frankly speaking, the Twelve Princes are nothing among all the sons of the Holy Spirit. If this marriage was held seven years ago when Yuan Chun was young, maybe Yuan Chun, who was taught by Jia Mu to think highly of himself since childhood, would be a little disappointed , but after all I heard and saw a lot in the palace, Yuan Chun also recognized his identity after all, and after all his youth is gone, even if he is assigned to ordinary officials and scholars, he will only feel grateful that he can get a princess The position is even more unexpected joy, only full of sincerity and fear.

Perhaps the Jia family should be lucky, or maybe Yuanchun was born rich and honored, as Jiamu said, and Yuanchun was married for less than three years. The twelve princes who were originally transparent people, Tu Mingxuan, unexpectedly picked it up for no reason. Cheap has become a master.

When Yuan Chun really entered the middle palace, he was still in a daze. He vaguely remembered the feeling that he never wanted to come back when he walked out of the palace gate.

She almost believed again what her grandmother had expected of her when she was a child.

----split line----

As a queen empress, Yuan Chun's life is actually very good, the only fly in the ointment is that she failed to give birth to a son after all.

She was not considered young when she got married, and the pressure to bear children as a concubine was actually not that great—in the clan of this dynasty, there has never been a saying that a concubine inherits the title, that is, Yuan Chun never gave birth to a son. Concubine, unless she is willing for the concubine to remember the concubine, she will never let the concubine become the eldest son, and Tu Mingxuan has no choice but to adopt a son from the new emperor to inherit the title.

But if Tu Ming became the emperor, then although the chances of the descendant to inherit the throne are always greater, the difference between the descendants and concubines is actually not very big.

No matter how you look at it, Yuan Chun felt that he had to give birth to a son.

However, Yuan Chun was already 25 years old at this time.

What is the concept of being 25 years old...Let's put it this way, when Mrs. Wang was 25 years old, Jia Zhu was almost ten years old.

When Yuan Chun was working beside Concubine Li, Tu Mingjun was only ten years old. Probably because of this reason, although the two were husband and wife, Tu Mingjun still treated Yuan Chun as a sister more often. Yuanchun is no longer the best age for childbearing, and it is not surprising that she cannot conceive a child.

Fortunately, Yuan Chun now has the advantage of a status, but he is not as courageous as Ying Tan and the others in their previous lives.

Then, one night before Yuan Chun had time to act excessively, Yuan Chun had an inexplicable dream.

The elder brother Jia Zhu in the dream died young, leaving only Jia Lan a son.In the dream, I had nowhere to ask for help, so I could only honestly serve as a female official by Concubine Li's side for ten years. After Tu Mingjun ascended the throne, my grandmother told me about the life experience of Rong's daughter-in-law in Ningguo Mansion. It became Tu Mingjun's concubine...

In the dream, he didn't give his father the so-called title of Duke Cheng'en. After he left the palace, Tu Mingxun got angry with many so-called noble families, so after he ascended the throne, he also wanted to eradicate the noble families.After Jia's family cooked oil with fresh flowers and brocade fire, the crime disappeared overnight, and he himself died in Huangquan.

Those crimes sound like heinous crimes, but in reality, they are nothing more than the normal state of noble families. The so-called water is clear and there are no fish. It is impossible for anyone to be innocent forever. Those who want to deal with their own excuses.

Then Yuan Chun suddenly woke up from the dream.

Although this is just a dream, Yuan Chun still feels flustered for no reason, as if the dream should be his own destiny, and even this dream is so real that Yuan Chun suspects that his current life is just a dream about to wake up.

Nowadays, Tu Mingjun doesn’t have any idea of ​​the harem controlling the former court, so he is naturally not in the mood to make any kind of family visitation or the order of Jiaofang’s family members to enter the palace. If someone wants to see his natal family, he will be able to enter the palace if he orders daily peace It is not difficult for female relatives.As the empress of today, if Yuan Chun wanted to meet her natal family, it would be extremely easy.

Jia Zheng himself knew that he probably didn't have the talent to be an official, otherwise he wouldn't have been an official for more than [-] years before he was promoted to a rank and a half. Simply resigned when the new emperor ascended Keen's title.

But even so, only accepting Mrs. Engong's super title is enough to make Mrs. Wang confidently enter the palace with her chest up.

For some reason, it was obviously just a dream, but Yuan Chun instinctively believed in the reality of the dream.

She spent more than half a month sorting out the stories in her dreams. There are actually quite a few differences between dreams and reality. Leaving aside the fates of those insignificant little sisters, she is very keen to find that all the turning points seem to be from her own. After entering the palace, Jia Zhu's serious illness began.

——In the dream, Jia Zhu passed away from illness, but now Jia Zhu passed that test, and then everything went well.

At that time, I was already in the palace, so I was still well-informed, but Yuan Chun actually didn't know many details.

But Yuan Chun knew that at least Mrs. Wang must have known about all the details and changes in this matter.

So Yuan Chun pretended to be nostalgic for the past, half nostalgic and half suspicious, bringing the topic back to the situation at that time.

Even though everything is going well in today's life, Mrs. Wang still has lingering fears when recalling the situation at that time.After all, Jia Zhu was really seriously ill at that time. It is no exaggeration to say that almost all the doctors said that they could only hope for a miracle.

Yuan Chun felt that he and his mother had nothing to say. After listening to Mrs. Wang's memories for a while, he felt that he hadn't gotten any useful news, so he simply shunned the people around him, and only let his confidant hold the piano to guard the door, and quietly talked with Mrs. Wang alone. Talk about your dream.

Mrs. Wang believed what these gods and Buddhas said, and her daughter's situation really didn't seem like a joke, but she thought about it carefully for a while, and then told the news that only she and the old lady knew at the beginning.

When Jia Zhu was seriously ill, Mrs. Wang really sent Yingchun to Jia Zhu's side by treating a dead horse as a living doctor.After all, this so-called blessing is nothing but an illusory statement, and it doesn't even have the name of a good birthday like the eldest daughter.Although at that time Mrs. Wang firmly believed in Yingchun's so-called good fortune and fate as if grasping at the last straw, but after time passed and Yingchun didn't show any weirdness, she still quickly dismissed this The statement was forgotten.

But at this moment, my daughter brought it up seriously, but I vaguely remembered it again.

"It's just some rumors when I was a child. After Ying girl grew up, she didn't show any miracles. I'm afraid that even the lucky ones in her life will be exhausted." After Madam Wang said this, she fell. Worried that Yuanchun believed too much in Yingchun's so-called good fortune, and would be disappointed if it failed in the end, he added another sentence at the end.

----split line----

Except for Mrs. Wang and Yuan Chun, no one knew what they said.

Anyway, outsiders only know that the etiquette between Cheng Engong's mansion and the married young daughter has doubled for no reason, and the relationship between Jia's family and Li's family has also become closer-but this is not unusual The matter, after all, the status of Duke Cheng'en's mansion has risen, and it would be strange if they were not close as in-laws.

Then, a few years later, the old matriarch of the Rongguo Mansion, Jia Shishi, suddenly fell asleep overnight because of his advanced age and never woke up again.Jia Shishi still had the imperial order of the Duke of Chaopin left by her husband. In addition, she was the grandmother of the Empress Empress. The married young daughters in the mansion all brought their sons-in-law and children to send their grandmothers off for the last time.

The second master of Cheng En Gong Mansion was raised by the old matriarch Jia Shishi of Rong Guo Mansion since he was a child. Even because of his lazy and playful relationship, besides his grandmother who loved him like a treasure, Cheng En Gong and his wife were his biological sons. Parents don't value this son very much, and even the marriage has been delayed because of the relationship between high and low.

But in any case, logically speaking, after Jia Shishi's funeral, the two Jia families should be completely separated, and this second master Bao can no longer live in his uncle's house in Rongguo Mansion, and he should go back to Cheng Engong The government is right.Unexpectedly, the old lady had just been buried the day before, and the second master Bao disappeared without a trace in the morning of the next day.

Although the Jia family was worried for a while, they even asked Prince Teng, who was in charge of the defense of the capital, to search for someone, but nothing came of it. After a long time, no one mentioned it, at most it was Cheng Engong Madam still thinks about this youngest son a little bit, and sighs once or twice when she is alone.

But very later, I occasionally heard someone in the family of a family friend who was an official in the south mention that he seemed to have seen a monk who looked very similar to Baoyu, but who would care at that time.

The author has something to say:

Originally, I just wanted to write about Jia Zhu’s episode, but after reading the comments, some friends said they wanted to watch the episode, so I wrote Yuanchun’s perspective.

Anyway, Yuan Chun still had no children in the end, but she also looked away, and simply grasped the palace power and the so-called model of husband and wife respecting each other as guests, and didn't care about doting or anything, so she could live smoothly.

My last article was about Yuanchun, so I didn’t intend to focus too much on Yuanchun in this article

.

Well, this part is over here, the next part is Daiyu and Baochai...

Fortunately, I managed not to write too much about Daiyu and Baochai in this part, and finally the outline of the next part can survive... Anyway, I am already revising the outline of the third volume of Li Wan and Wang Xifeng... Hopefully by then I won't be writing something that makes me feel like I'm all in the same story.

The only problem is...

I'm wondering whether it's more comfortable to change the character's name to Xue Jiadaiyu and Lin Jiabaochai, or whether it's less likely to collapse if a long-sleeved and good at dancing Lin Daiyu and a delicate and delicate Xue Baochai...

Obviously, there is no such problem when we are welcoming the spring and exploring the spring...

Volume Two: Daiyu Baochai
