Xichun is a Buddhist practitioner [Red Chamber]

After a game of chess, Master Mingkong finished what he wanted to say to the emperor, and after finishing speaking, Master Mingkong took his leave.On the second day of the new year, Master Mingkong didn't want to stay in the palace too much. As a monk, he didn't want to delay other people's visits.

Those princes and princesses always wanted to see the emperor more, Master Ming Kong naturally didn't intend to stay in the palace all the time.

"It's really fast." The emperor looked at the empty seat opposite and smiled.

The emperor is not interested in whether Buddhism is practiced or not. He just needs to know that what they are right is beneficial to the court and the emperor.He was most annoyed by those who had done good deeds and publicized them outside, as if only they would do good deeds, and the court would not be able to do good deeds.

The stability of a court is not an easy task.Great benevolent people have too much reputation, and they are also a kind of masters with high meritorious deeds.

Therefore, when the emperor saw Master Ming Kong say those words bluntly and let himself, the emperor, take the credit, he liked it very much.It's not just those people who want good fame, the emperor also wants it, okay? The emperor doesn't take advantage of it for nothing, and he will do things.

The emperor has issued a secret order to let the spies in Jiangnan cooperate.As for alarming the whole Jiangnan for one person, it is unnecessary, it will make the people panic.

A child being abducted is obviously not that important in the eyes of the emperor. What he wants to catch is the human trafficker in this country, not one human trafficker, but many, many individual traffickers.

The emperor didn't meet the other princes and princesses, but he did meet the prince. The prince is his and the queen's son. Although he is not the eldest son, in the eyes of the emperor, the son is the most suitable candidate to inherit the throne.

"Have you seen your royal brothers?" the emperor asked.

"I see." The prince replied respectfully, "They are all waiting to see the father."

"Every one of them is pretending to be filial, but they secretly want to win over the courtiers, want to fight for the throne, and pull you down as the crown prince." The emperor said to the crown prince, "Do you want to kill them?"

"I don't think so for the time being." It's not the first time for the prince to hear the emperor ask him such a question. He always feels that his father wants him to kill some princes, but those princes are all his father's sons.

Brothers killing each other... Excitement is exciting, but it is very likely to make people feel that he is cruel.

The crown prince also didn't want to be a cruel person, he also wanted brothers and friends on the surface, if they were disobedient, he would just kill them secretly.Don't be confused, the prince is also a fierce and cute person, after all, he was handed over by the current emperor.

"Do you want to marry Xiao Tai'an?" the emperor asked again.

"I don't want to." The prince replied very seriously, "The people who are really available should be allowed to live a happy life in their proper place."

Only by making them happy will they be more likely to work hard.As for making someone a side concubine or a concubine, are you sure you're not insulting others?The emperor's concubine is also a concubine, not a regular wife.

Anyway, the prince didn't want to insult Princess Tai'an, he thought it would be good for Princess Tai'an to marry someone else as his wife, not only as a regular wife, but also without concubines.The prince thought well, whoever dares to make Princess Tai'an unhappy, let them reconcile, then make that man half dead, and find a more suitable family for Princess Tai'an.

Look, he is so kind to Princess Tai'an, Princess Tai'an will always help him.

As a prince, you can't always think about relying on your nepotism to get to the top, you can't treat yourself as a stallion, and you shouldn't think of yourself as a brothel, sleeping with people you don't like every day.Even if you want a woman, it must be suitable, not to accept one after another just to win the relationship.

"Not bad." The emperor nodded, waved his hand, and told the prince to leave.

Today's prince still has a brain, so there is no need to abolish the prince today, I hope the prince will continue to maintain it.

The emperor was in a good mood. After finishing the prince examination, he felt that he was one step closer to becoming an emperor through the ages.If one wanted to become the emperor of the ages, one had to have a suitable heir. If the heir was a foolish emperor, then he would not be the emperor of the ages. People would say that he had a bad vision and did not choose a suitable prince.

The prince walked out of the palace and looked up at the sky. Today's father is so sharp, he still has to study and study, not to fall into the pit.

The concubines in the palace were still thinking about when they could see Princess Tai'an, and many people were thinking about Princess Tai'an.At the beginning, they wanted Princess Tai'an to be their daughter's companion, because they wanted their son to be one step closer to Princess Tai'an and marry Princess Tai'an in the future.

But when the queen bluntly said that Princess Tai'an would not accompany any princess as a companion, they could only think about other things.

In the eyes of the queen, those concubines are so noisy every day, they all think that others don't know what their plans are, but they don't know that their actions are under the control of the emperor.

"Sister, do you need to take care of your body so that you can have a baby in the future?" The queen looked at the imperial concubine who was sitting next to her. The imperial concubine had a very good temper.

"Elder sister of the queen is joking, the body of the concubine has been ruined long ago, and she will not be able to have children in this life." The noble concubine understood what the queen meant. The queen did not laugh at her, but wanted her to really have a child, but she couldn't.

Once a woman becomes a mother, she changes a lot and wants more for her child.It's okay if it's a girl, but if it's a boy, maybe I want to help my son fight for the supreme position.

The imperial concubine didn't think that she would be able to persevere and keep her original intention after having a son.I'm afraid that in the end, she will change her appearance, because she is a noble concubine, if she has a son, then her son may become a thorn in the side of other concubines, because her son has a high status.

"You." The queen shook her head. In the harem, only the noble concubine, a sensible person, is easier to get along with, "But someone like you will definitely get better in the future."

"Borrow my sister's auspicious words." The imperial concubine said, hearing what the queen said, she felt that it was an excellent choice for her to keep doing this.

The current crown prince is the queen's own son. The emperor respects the queen and also values ​​the crown prince. Not surprisingly, the crown prince should be able to succeed to the throne smoothly.At the time of the first emperor, all the princes wanted to fight for the throne, the deposed prince was in the front, and several princes died in the back, the current emperor didn't want to have so many troubles.

From the different education of the prince and other princes, it can be seen that the emperor does not consider princes other than the prince to be the prince at all, that is, those concubines still think that their sons are good-looking and that their sons have a chance.

"Speaking of which, Jia Yuanchun passed the age of Ji yesterday. It's the first day of the new year." The queen said with a smile, "This birthday is unforgettable."

"Unforgettable is unforgettable, but when she was born on this day, how many people will celebrate her birthday." The imperial concubine didn't care much, "This ceremony has been postponed."

The imperial concubine didn't like Jia Yuanchun, so she didn't let Jia Yuanchun marry her natal nephew.At this moment, she was not annoyed when she heard the queen's words. There was no need to care about a person who was destined to have no relationship with their family, just to talk about it as a novelty.

General Wei Lie's mansion, after Jia Xichun ate two pieces of cakes, he looked down at his belly, it was round again with so many clothes on.

"Tiantian is round and round." Jia Xichun patted his stomach, looked up at Mrs. Zhang, "roll."

After finishing speaking, Jia Xichun fell on the bed, ready to roll over.

"Okay, I just finished eating, so don't roll." Mrs. Zhang was quite speechless about her daughter's behavior of rolling on the bed. Fortunately, her daughter is only a child and the bed is big enough, otherwise she would be careless. Just rolled to the ground.

Although there were thick blankets on the ground, Mrs. Zhang was still worried that her daughter would roll to the ground.

"Oh." Jia Xichun climbed up from the bed and picked up the pastry on the plate.

Due to the small number of people in General Wei Lie's residence, no married women came back on the second day of the Lunar New Year.Mrs. Zhang then allowed Qin Keqing and Jia Rong to go to Qin's house together. At this moment, Qin Keqing and Jia Rong were already in Qin's house.

After Qin Keqing knew her background, she rarely came to the Qin family.It's just that I still have to come back for New Year's greetings. If I don't come back, I'm afraid others will gossip.

After Qin Keqing came back, she didn't talk to Qin Ye much, but Jia Rong sat with Qin Ye and talked, and Qin Keqing went to see Qin Zhong.

Qin Zhong's body is also relatively weak, not that strong.But Qin Zhong is the only male in the Qin family, and also the old son of Qin Ye. Everyone in the family is close to Qin Zhong and cares about Qin Zhong.Qin Zhong was about the same age as Jia Baoyu, but he had begun to be enlightened.

"Sister." Qin Zhong was delighted to see Qin Keqing coming.

"Into the house, don't stand outside, it's windy outside." Qin Keqing hastily dragged Qin Zhong into the house, for fear that Qin Zhong would catch a cold.Fortunately, her brother's health is much better than Jia Minsheng's brother, not so weak, but easier to raise, "Don't catch a cold, let father worry."

"During this period of time, I've been staying indoors all the time, and I'm so bored." Qin Zhong wanted to go out for a walk more, but the people around him stopped him. Only when the sun came out on a sunny day, they would let him go out for a walk.

He also knew that he was not in good health, so he didn't make things too difficult for the servants around him.

In the Rongqing Hall of Rongguo Mansion, Jia Min was talking to Mrs. Jia, and suddenly said, "Sister Yuan's birthday was yesterday, when are you going to do this ceremony?"

"At the end of the first month." Mrs. Jia told Mrs. Wang a long time ago that it's not easy to celebrate a birthday on the first day of the new year, and it's even more difficult to do it on the first day of the new year.

They used to say that Jia Yuanchun was born in the Lunar New Year and was extravagant.But now that Jia Yuanchun is not in the palace, there is no need to make such a scene anymore, and he should keep a low profile and stop messing around.

Mrs. Jia is now worried that the Liu family, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, might not like Jia Yuanchun. After all, Jia Yuanchun's words are rumored to be a nobleman's life, and he wants to enter the palace to be a nobleman.Although the servants of the Ministry of Rites are doing extremely well now, as if they value Jia Yuanchun very much, but they all know in their hearts that it is because of the marriage bestowed by the queen.

If there is no marriage gift from the queen, I am afraid that the family of the Minister of Rites may not come to propose marriage.The officials of the Ministry of Rites pay the most attention to those rules. Their marriage depends on the rules of the other party's family. If the rules are not good, it will not work.

Mrs. Jia doesn't think that the Rongguo Mansion has no rules, but there are many rumors in the mansion.But in the eyes of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, there are no rules.

As long as the family is managed better, those rumors can be controlled and the family affairs will not be spread.And their Rongguo Mansion spread a lot of things, Jia Yuanchun's, Jia Baoyu's, one after another.

Mrs. Jia knew very well in her heart that in the eyes of Mrs. Wang, she might think that her children had a good reputation.But Mrs. Jia doesn't think so, that means they think they are beautiful. In the eyes of outsiders, there is something wrong with their Rongguo Mansion.

If it was changed to another family, it would be impossible to spread it casually. It was the vision of Lin Daiyu when she was born, and the Lin family did not spread the news about Lin Daiyu to a great extent.At most, people outside knew that the Lin family's sons and daughters were not in good health. That's because Jia Min rarely took the children out, and doctors often came in and out of the house.

"Even the end of the first month, everyone is almost done and has time." Jia Min said, "If this is really the first day of the new year, how can everyone have time to come here?"

"That's exactly the reason." Mrs. Jia nodded. She didn't think the Rongguo Mansion had such a big face, and it was so lively on the first day of the first lunar month, what would people in the palace think.

Does it make the royal family think that their Rongguo Mansion has a strong appeal?On the first day of the first lunar month, so many nobles came to the door, and those nobles went to Rongguo Mansion before paying New Year's greetings to the emperor.Tsk tsk, thinking of this at all, Mrs. Jia's mood is not very good.

Fortunately, Mrs. Wang did not insist on doing it on the first day of the new year, otherwise Mrs. Jia would definitely slap Mrs. Wang in the face.

In fact, the reason why Mrs. Wang didn't insist was because Mrs. Wang was worried that few people would come to the door.After all, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, many people have to go to the temple to worship. At this time, people come to the house to participate in the Jiji ceremony of a daughter's family. What is it like?

It seems that Jia Yuanchun's daughter's family wants to compete with Wanfo, and Mrs. Wang really dare not do such a thing, lest the whole family will be lost, and the most embarrassing thing is her own daughter.

In the past, when Jia Yuanchun invited his boudoir close friends to celebrate their birthdays, it was not on the first day of the first lunar month, but moved to the back.Although the Jiji ceremony of this daughter's family is important, sometimes some important days have to be avoided.

"Sigh." Mrs. Jia sighed, "Back then, I wanted her to enter the palace and teach her more. But now I can't enter the palace, I'm afraid Miss Yuan will feel uncomfortable."

Mrs. Jia also knew that the gap was huge, as long as she was a human being, it was inevitable that she would feel uncomfortable.It's also because they always thought that Jia Yuanchun could enter the palace, so they didn't think about other situations. They raised Jia Yuanchun a little more arrogantly, and the people around her all praised her.

"It will be fine after we get married." Jia Min didn't say much. Although Jia Yuanchun was her niece, she was still Mrs. Wang's daughter.If she said too much, Mrs. Wang must be unhappy.

As for feeling comfortable or uncomfortable, when you get married and realize the reality, you have to feel comfortable even if you are uncomfortable, at least on the surface.It doesn't matter if Jia Yuanchun is tossing around on his own. After tossing around for a while, he will naturally understand after her husband is separated from her.

If you don’t suffer a little bit of setback, you can go to talk to Jia Yuanchun now, people will only treat you as chicken soup for the soul without practice, just listen to it, and take it as real.Humans always feel that they are unique and different from others.

"That's the only way." Mrs. Jia nodded.

"Don't worry too much, children and grandchildren are blessed with children and grandchildren." Jia Min said, but he thought in his heart that Jia Yuanchun hadn't entered the palace as a concubine, so he wouldn't have that much effect on Rongguo Mansion.Then her mother, Mrs. Jia's attitude towards Jia Yuanchun is naturally impossible to attach as much importance to Jia Yuanchun as before. After Jia Yuanchun entered the Ministry of Rites's servant's house, if he messed around on his own, her mother's family would only let her suffer.

Don't let Jia Yuanchun suffer, her mother's family went to the Ministry of Rites to make decisions for Jia Yuanchun, don't be ridiculous.Jia Yuanchun's heart was high, and there were such rumors outside.Under various circumstances, Jia Yuanchun was at a disadvantage before he got married.

"Now, my daughter has also returned to the capital, and I will definitely come to see you more in the future." Jia Min smiled and said, "You, please feel at ease."

"Okay." Mrs. Jia was not happy when she heard her daughter say that.Now that my daughter is in the capital, we will see each other more often in the future.Now that Jia Yuanchun is not in the palace again, as an old lady, she doesn't need to worry about whether Jia Yuanchun won't be favored and can help the family.

The servant of the Ministry of Rites' family is a well-behaved family. I'm afraid there are many things that are not so easy to say. If they are asked to recruit people from the Rongguo Mansion, they may not be willing.Let's see this kind of thing in the future, Jia Baoyu can be regarded as growing up in front of Jia Yuanchun, the elder sister is like a mother, Jia Yuanchun will always take care of Jia Baoyu.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year this year, Mrs. Zhang did not take Jia Xichun to Jing'anhou's Mansion. She is now an old lady, not when she was young, so she can't always go back to her natal home so early.

Her parents are long gone, only her brother and sister-in-law.Fortunately, brother and sister-in-law are also kind to her now, so close.The abolition of the prince had a great impact on many officials. Although the officials involved were not punished, they did not dare to get too close.

"Snow." Jia Xichun staggered out of the yard, "Snowman."

"What snowman?" Mrs. Zhang originally thought that her daughter would be able to sleep peacefully after eating the pastry, but unexpectedly, her daughter ran outside again.

"The little me, the white me." Jia Xichun pointed to himself and then to the snow on the ground.

In the past few days, the snow in the capital has not been heavy, but it snowed again last night, there was snow on the trees outside, and there was still snow in the yard that had not been swept clean.

"Cat." Jia Xichun gave a soft 'meow'.

She saw a cat with white snow on its head this morning, and she gently stroked the cat.

"For nothing." Jia Xichun said, "On the head."

Mrs. Zhang understood that the cat has snow on its body, so it is called a snow cat. Now that my daughter wants snow, is she trying to build herself into a snowman?

"It can't be on your head, let them make a small snowball for you to watch." Mrs. Zhang emphasized, "You can only watch it, you can't touch it, and you can't eat it."

To avoid waiting for the snow to fall, the daughter ran out willingly and asked for snowflakes on her head.Mrs. Zhang is helpless, others say her daughter is obedient, well-behaved and easy to raise, but at home, Xiao Xichun is not a very obedient child, sometimes she is very naughty, such as now.

The servants have already swept most of the snow in the yard, but there is always some white snow on the trees in the garden.

"You can't eat it!" Mrs. Zhang said.

"Can't eat it?" Jia Xichun was a little confused, she didn't say she wanted to eat it, her mother said so, should she have a taste of Baixue after a while.

Jia Xichun's mentality is the mentality of many bear children. If you don't let me eat it, then I will eat it anyway.

"Yes, you can't eat it." Mrs. Zhang asked someone to bring two small snowballs over, pointing at the snowballs, "You can't eat it! You can only watch it!"

"It's nothing, cake." Jia Xichun said intentionally, mother, what do you say, such a small one really looks like a cake.Build a big snowman if you have the ability, then I can't hold it, and I can't chew it.

"..." Mrs. Zhang looked at the little snowball on the table, and suddenly realized that her daughter's description seemed to be correct.
