Jia Min's Counterattack

"Ah! Miss Shi, aren't Mrs. Lin and you direct cousins? I said there is a reason why Miss Shi is so talented!" Zheng Rong, the second girl of Jinxianghou's family, suddenly Speak out, with teasing and disdain in the tone.

How could Shi Jingya fail to understand the hidden meaning in Zheng Rong's words, doesn't it mean that she is inferior to Jia Min?Shi Jingya was depressed, but on such an occasion, when so many ladies were present, she couldn't do anything that would harm the historians, not to mention the current status of the Rongguo Mansion and the Lin family, how could she be so stupid as to be used as a weapon? make.

"Miss Zheng Er is right. Mrs. Lin is indeed my cousin. When my cousin was still in her boudoir, she was one of the most talented women in the capital, and she was gentle and elegant, and good at managing the house. Otherwise, she would not have entered Seeing Lin Tanhua is so eye-catching! I know that brother-in-law Lin was attracted by many people at the beginning, and some people rushed to marry into the Lin family, but ah, brother-in-law Lin didn't like it!"

All the ladies present were silent. No one knew that Zheng Bao, the eldest daughter of the Jinxianghou family, wanted to marry Lin Ruhai. Jinxianghou personally came to propose marriage, but was rejected by Lin Ruhai. Within a few days, it was reported that Lin Ruhai and Jia Min were married. On the news of the engagement, Zheng Baopao went to the gate of Lin's house and made a big fuss, which became a big joke in the whole capital.

Zheng Rong was furious when he heard this, and raised his hand to teach Shi Jingya a lesson, but was grabbed by Niu Lianxiang, the youngest daughter of Duke Fu, "What is Miss Zheng Er doing, and I don't even look where she is!"

"Hmph! You and Jia Min have a good relationship. Do you think I don't know? You helped her bully me, and I will tell my brother when I go back!" Niu Lianxiang was betrothed to Zheng Xuan, the only son of Marquis Jinxiang, before long. We are getting married.What Zheng Rong said didn't scare Niu Lianxiang, instead he just smiled generously, turned around and walked away, which made Zheng Rong feel like he had punched the cotton.

Marquis Jinxiang has nine daughters in total, but only one son, the eldest son of a concubine.The title of Marquis Jinxiang is hereditary, and he is also the only hereditary marquis with military power.Marquis Jinxiang used to be the emperor's companion, and he could be regarded as Lin Ruhai's senior brother.At that time, Marquis Jin Xiang went to the Lin Mansion to propose a marriage. The reason why Lin Ruhai refused was firstly because of his lack of seniority, and secondly because he knew that the emperor at that time did not want to see him marry someone with military power.

Jia Min didn't know about the dispute at the gate of the palace because of Jia Min. She had already arrived at the Queen's Palace of Phoenixes.

"The concubine pays homage to the empress! The empress is a thousand years old!"

"Please get up quickly!" The queen's voice was very soft, which made Jia Min feel a little nervous, and suddenly relaxed a lot.

"Thank you, Empress!"

The queen looked at the beautiful woman standing gracefully below, and thought to herself: No wonder Lin Ruhai treats her like jewels and treasures. It is difficult to find another person like this in the capital.

"Quickly give Mrs. Lin a seat!"

Jia Min saluted the Eldest Princess who was already in the Phoenix Palace, and Fang sat down on the round stool prepared by the maid.

Jia Min raised his eyes and glanced at the empress, the same as she remembered.The queen empress is the emperor's first wife. She is nearly fifty years old, her hair is already gray, and there are inevitably some signs of age on her face.But the queen is generous and calm in dealing with things, which makes her look very kind.She and the emperor have a son and a daughter, the daughter is His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, and the son is the current Crown Prince.The emperor went to the northwest when the eldest princess was three years old, and she went there for ten years.At that time, the empress had to manage the harem while also taking care of the affairs of the previous court. It took a lot of hard work, and her body also lost vitality, so she looked a little older.After the emperor returned to the court, he was very grateful to the queen. It can be said that without the queen sitting in the rear, the emperor would not be able to successfully regain the northwest.Therefore, during the two years when the queen took care of her body, no concubine in the harem was allowed to conceive. It was not until the queen gave birth to a baby boy that the emperor ordered the concubines to stop taking medicine.It was only after the prince was canonized as the crown prince when he was three years old that there were other princes in the palace one after another.The emperor and the empress are young couples who love each other very much. Even if the emperor loves Concubine Wang, he never allows her to offend the empress.So everyone used to say: The emperor loves Concubine Wang the most, and the queen is the only one who trusts and loves the most.It can be seen that the empress's status in the harem is unmatched by anyone.

The Empress chatted with Jia Min for a long time. Originally, she was passively friendly because the Emperor wanted to win people's hearts. Maybe she still had some curiosity about Jia Min. Later, she really fell in love with Jia Min.

"Bengong has always been curious about what kind of woman can win Ruhai's heart. When I saw her today, I felt like I hated seeing each other later." The queen said with a smile.

"Mother-in-law, let me just say, Min'er is a very good woman, you will definitely like her!" Princess Jiayue leaned on the Queen's arm and looked at her with a smile.

"Yes! My little Jiayue is so smart! You must be a good sister." The queen smiled and patted Jiayue's hand.

Jia Yue blinked at Jia Min, raised her chin and said, "That's right, don't even look at who I am!"

"Jiayue! Don't be rude!" the eldest princess scolded.

The Empress gave the Eldest Princess a glance, "She is already married, and you are still so fierce to her, where is she going to put her face? She won't talk properly!" Turning around, she saw Princess Jiayue bowing her head, looking pitiful, He held her in his arms and coaxed her: "Okay! Your mother is doing it for your own good! It's fine for you to be so open-minded in front of your own family. No one will blame you anyway. If your mother-in-law sees you like this , don’t you want to say that your mother didn’t take care of you and punish you then, don’t cry to me, I won’t help you! Can you change it in the future?”

Jiayue pouted aggrievedly and nodded, "I'm very good at my in-law's house. My mother-in-law said that I'm well-behaved and sensible, and I'll make her happy!"

"That's looking at your emperor's uncle's face!" The eldest princess said angrily.

"Oh! Can't I pay attention in the future?"

"Hearing you say these words, your ears are callused, and I haven't seen you really grow up!"

"Okay, okay! Jiayue is still young! Besides, she already knew she was wrong!" The Empress quickly smoothed things over.

"Actually, Jiayue knows how to control outsiders. She just doesn't defend against her own people." Jia Min also said.

"Yes! I believe Min'er's words."

The eldest princess saw that everyone was protecting Jiayue, and it wasn't the time to teach her, so she didn't say anything.

This is, a eunuch came to report: everything is ready in the imperial garden, please go to the empress.

With the support of the eldest princess, the queen left the Qifeng Palace, and Princess Jiayue and Jia Min followed behind holding hands.
