Jia Lian of the Red Chamber

Yu Liuyue gritted her teeth tightly when she heard the words: "So, I'm bound to recognize the thief as my relative?"

Jia Lian said: "It's not that you recognize the thieves as your relatives. These people are your relatives. Even if your stepmother has such and other problems, she has been your mother for 15 years. You can go to the Beijing draft because of your stepmother's credit.

On the second day of February, you are about to enter the palace to participate in the election. In fact, you know in your heart that the palace has already made arrangements for your marriage, and entering the palace for an audition is just a formality, just a cover-up.

"Now, you and your stepmother are tied to the same boat. It has become an unspeakable secret that you are not her biological daughter. At a small scale, it is confusing blood, and at a large scale, it is a crime of deceiving the emperor. The Emperor's family For women, the paternal and matrilineal origins must be clear.

"If you're not in deep trouble, you can expose your stepmother's impersonation and make her a joke, but now you're stuck on your own, and the only way out is to continue pretending as always. Maybe your stepmother prevented you from entering Gong is not jealous, but she has discovered a hidden scourge and wants to correct it.

Whether it is good or bad, you must be of one mind with Yanhou now, otherwise, if Yanhou knows the truth, you will be the next to die. "

Yu Liuyue smiled wryly: "I was too naive. I thought that the eldest prince liked me and I could use this to get rid of the oppression of my stepmother, but it turned out that it was for Yan Hou's help, just like my father!"

In the previous life, Jia Lian didn't know about the relationship between Yu Liuyue and Marquis of Yan. In this life, Jia Lian hoped to change. After all, compared to the fifth prince's suspicious literati nature, the first prince's straightforward atmosphere is more suitable for a king.

The eldest prince has a broad mind and great ambitions, which is quite different from the little emperor's character of vengeance, so Jia Lian hopes that the eldest prince will be able to rise up and win in this lifetime.

There is another thing that Jia Lian likes about the eldest prince. His mother was just the emperor's maid since he was a child, and she died young, so there was no intertwined nepotism. When such an emperor comes to power, he will not be hindered by his family, and will really rely on the courtiers for assistance.

Unlike the third prince's mother, Concubine Wu, who came from a scholar's residence, the fifth prince's mother came from the Gu family, a prominent family in the south of the Yangtze River. The heart of disobedience, so he was suspicious first, then suppressed, and finally purged the meritorious and veteran ministers, and he always held people in his hands like kneading dough to be at ease.

Later, the outstanding military generals were either tortured to death, or retreated to save their lives. The military power was highly concentrated, and there were no rebels, but it was hard to find a general.As a result, the war broke out in the coastal areas and no one was available, so the dignitaries had to be used in a hurry, but the result was a crushing defeat. The dignified county king became a prisoner and had to pay compensation for peace and give away the beauty. The dignified empire was humiliated and peaceful.

From then on, the martial prince was despised by the courtiers and also abandoned by the king, and lost the qualification to win the heir.As a result, the fifth prince, a sour literati who can only point fingers, succeeded in ascending the throne.

Even if the eldest prince was defeated in the previous life, in Jia Lian's mind, he was more qualified to inherit the throne than the fifth prince. At least, when the country was in trouble, he dared to sacrifice his life to save him. Although he failed to turn the tide, he was defeated by an unscrupulous general in the army.It has nothing to do with him being a young prince.

The fifth prince didn't dare to stand out before the battle, but he jumped out to criticize him afterwards, because he flattered the literati, and they all praised him for his benevolence and righteousness.

The eldest prince is a martial artist. If he gains power, at least he can gradually restore the vitality of the general. Otherwise, the current emperor is a married woman who pays compensation, and the next emperor, the fifth prince, will definitely continue the bad habit of emphasizing civility over military affairs. Cede the land and seek peace.

By analogy, if you pay compensation every year, no matter how strong the country is, it will gradually weaken. Those Japanese pirates who have tasted the sweetness will only get more and more insatiable, and they will never be embarrassed to come to your door just because you send money and beautiful women.I'm afraid that when the time comes, they will break through the country and take it for themselves.

And this Yu Liuyue in front of her is hearty, generous, smart, full of poems and books, enough to capture a man's heart, and also has the ability to assist a man. Maybe she is the butterfly wing that affects the direction of the situation.

Jia Lian had a thought, Yu Liuyue was able to survive the last life and sit firmly in the position of the eldest concubine. It is estimated that after slowly studying, he understood and gradually compromised with Yan Hou's mansion. In this life, Jia Lian will do The purpose is to shorten her unnecessary running-in period and help her quickly enter the role, so she persuaded: "Yanhou is still romantic, but he is sincere to you. Of course, he thinks you are his blood, since this secret cannot be made public. , why not take it as true, follow the trend, and use it for me, the eldest prince has high ambitions, and the girl is unwilling to be mediocre, wouldn't it be a good match?"

Yu Liuyue murmured: "The years in the palace, isn't it a woman who has the ability to be safe and smooth? Yanhou, my father, can I rely on it?"

Jia Lian nodded solemnly: "Yes, both the Marquis of Yan and your father know the importance of His Majesty's grace. As long as you can bring them these, they will follow your lead."

Looking at Jia Lian's resolute face, Yu Liuyue felt a sudden movement in her heart: "If I have a brother like you, how wonderful it would be!"

Jia Lian smiled when she heard the words: "Young lady is joking, Jia doesn't dare to climb high, but according to the relationship between Marquis of Yan and Jia's house, we are considered family friends, so if my cousin Shui Ling calls me "brother", it is fine for the girl to call me "brother", although The girl is not close blood relatives, if Miss Meng does not give up, whenever there is a need in the future, Jia will definitely go all out within his ability!"

Yu Liuyue smiled when she heard the words, and blessed her body: "Whether the elder brother is sincere or not, I will treat it as the elder brother's sincerity, so I will not be polite. From then on, I will call the virtuous couple, elder brother, elder sister-in-law."

Jia Lian pursed her lips and coughed: "Come out, you've been discovered!"

Sister Feng came out with a giggle, and put her arms on Yu Liuyue affectionately: "Oh, I just heard that the second master brought back a celestial beauty, and I just wanted to come and have a look, but it turned out to be my younger sister. Seeing my sister, everything is going well for my sister, I heard that my sister, Hong Luan, is a good match, and the eldest prince is wise and powerful, this is a blessing that ordinary people can't ask for, congratulations, congratulations, sister!"

Yu Liuyue is a bold woman, looking at Sister Feng's skin that can be broken by blowing and blowing, her temper is so unrestrained, her words are unrestrained, Jia Lian doesn't think it is disobedient, but her face is full of doting, she is slightly jealous, and said with a smile: " If possible, I would like to change with my sister."

Sister Feng was taken aback and glanced at Jia Lian. How could this be wrong?

Yu Liuyue smiled: "It's a pity that my mother died early, so I don't have the blessing of my sister. No, just now the young master has recognized me as a younger sister, so I can no longer call you older sister."

After saying that, Yu Liuyue got up and gave a blessing: "Yu Liuyue has met my sister-in-law, the younger sister is very polite!"

Sister Feng was busy dodging, supporting Yu Liuyue with both hands: "I dare not take it seriously, but I like your temper against me."

When she got up, Sister Feng gave Jia Lian a hard look, and walked out with Yu Liuyue on her arm: "Sister, I am very straightforward, so don't blame me if I tell you, why is your complexion so pale at such a young age? Let me tell you, sister, I have a lot of experience in health care, since I have recognized me as my sister-in-law, I will give you a little gift, and after three to five days of keeping you, your skin will be as beautiful as snow."

Yu Liuyue hugged Sister Feng with her backhand, staring at her eyes: "Ah, really, thank you sister-in-law!"

Jia Lian frowned as she looked at the backs of the two of them. No matter how smart a woman was, she would become unreasonable and neurotic when she encountered a problem with her appearance.Yu Liuyue went to the upper room, but it was hard for Jia Lian to go back, so she got up and went to the study.

For a while, Ping'er came over and turned to Jia Lian: "Second master, grandma married Miss Yu. I heard that Miss Yu didn't bring anyone to Beijing, and there was no one around to serve her. She didn't trust Yanhou's mansion, so I want to pick two people from our mansion as dowry, and follow her into the palace for a draft."

Jia Lian mused upon hearing the words, although Yu Liuyue was already the pre-determined eldest concubine, but she still had to go through the House of Internal Affairs and the House of Clan to go through a set of procedures, and then the queen mother and emperor in the palace would jointly discuss the candidate and issue a decree to bestow the marriage, and then The auspicious day will be chosen by Qin Tianjian, and the Ministry of Rites will arrange the marriage.

Yu Liuyue first had to go through the intermediate procedures well before she could finally talk about marriage.

Therefore, Yu Liuyue borrowed someone from the Rongguo Mansion to ensure her safety during the draft in the palace.

The corners of Jia Lian's mouth turned up slightly, this Yu Liuyue was really not simple, she thought she had no time to think about other things at this time, and didn't want to enter the role so soon.

In fact, it was not difficult to have two maidservants. Later, Jia Lian secretly bought ten girls around ten years old, and put them in Changping to cultivate quietly, in order to dowry for Yingchun, Tanchun, Xichun and Qiaojie in the future. Unfortunately, when I meet Sun Shaozu again, I can't be comprehensive for a while, and there are people around me who can help the master.

Now that Yu Liuyue opened her mouth, she had to choose two outstanding ones for her to use.

Jia Lian said with a smile to Ping'er: "Go back and tell your grandma, and I will send you in tomorrow."

That night, Jia Lian sent a letter to Zhao'er, asking him to deliver the letter to Changping quickly.

The next day, Lin Zhixiao's family brought two girls into the mansion. Guan Shan thought it was unusual to enter the palace to be a court lady. These two were the most distinctive among the ten people. Clever and quick-witted, one named Liu'er has quick hands and feet and is the best at learning light skills.

Both of them have the most basic fist skills, and both know the simplest scouting skills, such as stealthy tracking, quick inspection of the surrounding environment, and searching for traces of the scene.

These girls were only sent to Changping by Pan You'an for training in October last year. The three months was a bit rushed, but their current skills are comparable to ten little girls.

Yu Liuyue earned it!
