[Red Mansion] Ronghua Road of Mrs. Hou's Mansion

The emperor was always busy, so naturally there was no need to meet Sister Feng and Mrs. Jiang, but Emperor Tianshun was also very curious about the woman Gu Xingchi liked, so he summoned the two of them, and they came out after a while.

The palace is deep and seems to be full of sinister and scheming. Sister Feng remembered Gu Xingchi's reminder that she didn't want to stay longer in the palace, and was about to leave the palace with Mrs. Jiang, when a palace official appeared in front of Sister Feng, saying that the queen wanted to invite her.

Mrs. Jiang thought it was just an ordinary woman being summoned by the queen, but Sister Feng knew that the queen might have waited for this opportunity to meet her long ago.

When they arrived at the queen's palace, the two saluted the queen. The queen didn't make things difficult for Sister Feng, and called out directly.Sister Feng deliberately showed a cautious look, like a little girl who has never seen the world.

The queen was very interested: "This is Miss Wang?"

Mrs. Jiang said respectfully: "Yes, ma'am, this is the niece of my wife."

"Head up."

Sister Feng took a deep breath, looked up at the seemingly amiable but majestic queen in front of her, her eyes were pure and timid.

Empress Xu sized her up for a while before saying: "Sure enough, she looks very good. No wonder even the Marquis of Jing'an was moved to ask His Majesty to marry her."

Mrs. Jiang was a little nervous, she smiled: "Your Majesty is too well-reputed, and it is her blessing to be married by His Majesty."

Empress Xu smiled and said, "Ms. Jiang is too modest. The Marquis of Jing'an has a high eye, not everyone can appreciate it. Since he took the initiative to ask for marriage, Miss Wang must have something special, thanks to Mrs. Jiang carefully taught."

At this time, someone from the palace showed them their seats, and they thanked them before they dared to sit down.The queen said again: "I don't know how Miss Wang and Marquis Jing'an met?"

Sister Feng lowered her eyes and said lightly: "My daughter only saw Lord Hou once at the banquet in the Gu residence, and met by chance, and had the honor to have a few words with Lord Hou."

The queen's smile did not change, "Oh, so it was the Marquis of Jing'an who fell in love with Miss Wang at first sight?"

Sister Feng didn't answer, she looked embarrassed.

"I heard that Miss Wang went to Jiangnan to recuperate before. At that time, the Marquis of Jing'an also went to Jiangnan to find a famous doctor for Mrs. Gu. It's a pity that you didn't meet them at that time, otherwise why wait until now to get engaged."

Sister Feng's heart tightened.The queen's words of probing were really malicious, perhaps, she was warning her.

At this time, the female official beside the queen said: "Although Master Gu and Miss Wang missed it at that time, they are still able to get married now. It can be seen that it is destined by heaven."

I don't know what came to mind, the queen frowned, and chuckled, "Yes, it is indeed a fate destined by heaven. Miss Wang may not know how many people want their daughters to marry into the Gu family, and some even want to achieve their goals through His Majesty. , but as long as the Marquis of Jing An is not willing, His Majesty will never issue an order. Now that Miss Wang has got such a good marriage, she must cherish it."

Sister Feng's eyes were extremely humble, "I would like to follow the empress's instructions."

Next, the queen talked about the family life with Mrs. Jiang, and she seemed a little tired.He ordered the palace people beside him: "Yuanchun, you can send Mrs. Jiang and Miss Wang out of the palace."

Before leaving, he gave Sister Feng some rewards.

The two saw Yuan Chun as soon as they entered the palace, but they couldn't say hello to Yuan Chun because of the palace rules.Furthermore, neither Mrs. Jiang nor Sister Feng was close to Yuan Chun, so there was really nothing to say.The relationship between Jia's family and Wang's family has long been different. Wang's family is now His Majesty's people. They are real royalists, let alone get too close to Jia's family.

Yuan Chun saluted, and then sent Mrs. Jiang and the two out of the palace. Not far from the palace, she called out 'Aunt, Cousin' generously.

Yuan Chun felt unspeakable.Since she is the eldest daughter of the family, Sister Feng can always be the eldest daughter at home, but her parents send her to the palace for the benefit of the Jia family.To put it bluntly, she is a female historian in the Queen's Palace, and she is also of high grade, but she is not actually a servant?Originally, Sister Feng was just an ordinary boudoir lady, and she was recognized as an illiterate and ordinary person, but now she has become the future hostess of the Jing'an Hou Mansion. Her situation and Sister Feng's situation are really different.

However, she can't back down, for the sake of the Jia family, she also wants to fight for that position.

"Auntie, Yuanchun has something to ask for your help."

Mrs. Jiang was a little surprised, "What's the matter?"

Yuan Chun secretly sighed at Mrs. Jiang's estrangement from her, and said, "I have a letter here, please help my aunt to send it to my parents."

"It's just a little thing, don't bother."

Mrs. Jiang breathed a sigh of relief. If it were something else, she would probably reject Yuan Chun directly.

Yuan Chun smiled wryly in his heart, "Thank you, Auntie." Then he smiled at Sister Feng, "Cousin Feng, I haven't seen you for many years, and she has become a slim beauty."

Sister Feng was thinking that it was not easy for Yuan Chun to get a foothold in the palace, and she needed to manage everywhere, maybe this time she was asking Mrs. Wang for money again.In her previous life, she married into the Rongguo Mansion, so she was very clear about this matter. Yuan Chun spent a lot of money in the palace, but it was all money from the public. Mrs. Wang is really good at planning.

She ignored the complicated emotions in Yuan Chun's eyes, and said with a smile: "Yes, it's true that I haven't seen her for many years. I often hear my aunt mention my cousin, so I must miss her very much."

"Since entering the palace, I have rarely had the opportunity to see my mother. Please ask my cousin to greet my mother on my behalf, and tell her that everything is fine in the palace, and let her not worry."

"it is good."

Mrs. Jiang was too lazy to deal with the Jia family, so she sent Sister Feng to Rongguo Mansion to deliver the letter.Sister Feng told Mrs. Wang Yuanchun to let her wait a while, and went to Daiyu's place.

"Miss Feng is getting more and more excited." Zhou Rui's family said looking at Sister Feng Tingting's graceful figure.

Mrs. Wang sneered, "She will soon be Mrs. Hou, and she will have a much higher order than me in the future, but it's not that she doesn't take me seriously."

Zhou Rui's family apologized and said with a smile: "Even if Miss Feng is well married, you are her elder, and she still has to be respectful when she sees you. Besides, according to our elder girl's talent and appearance, it will be a matter of time before she becomes a concubine. Now you will be the emperor's mother-in-law, and you are not comparable to a Mrs. Hou."

Hearing this, Mrs. Wang felt a little more at ease, "I heard that Master Gu has a wild and unruly personality, and he is rebellious. She won Master Gu's love for a while by virtue of her appearance, and she will cry sometimes in the future."

After saying that, he couldn't wait to open Yuan Chun's letter, seeing that he wanted money again, his eyelids drooped.

Now that she is Fu Qiufang's housekeeper, she can no longer covet the public's money, and she can't bear to see Fu Qiufang's hypocritical smile.However, for the sake of Yuanchun, she could only go brazenly.

Not to mention how bored Mrs. Wang is now, Sister Feng went to Daiyu's place and met all the sisters.

"Sister Feng is free to come today." Tanchun shook his head and smiled, "No, I have to change my name to Mrs. Gu now."

Sister Feng made a gesture to beat her, "Now Tan girl has learned badly, and she even makes fun of me, Yingchun, as a sister, doesn't care about her."

Yingchun just laughed along with them and didn't speak.

Tanchun knew that Sister Feng's current fortune was beyond his reach, so he had no other thoughts except a little envy. "At the Gu family banquet that day, I discovered that Mrs. Gu treated you differently from others. She must have treated you as a granddaughter-in-law at that time. Thanks to those girls who tried their best to get close to Mrs. Gu, now I know that you have been Your Majesty bestows a marriage, I don't know how many veils will be soaked through."

Sister Feng wasn't embarrassed at all, she looked around and asked, "I thought all the sisters were there, but now I find that there is one person missing."

Xichun said: "Second elder brother was seriously injured. I heard that sister Feng's engagement has caused another commotion. Sister Bao went to visit him. Maybe she will come here after a while."

Sister Feng was at a loss, "Why are you making trouble because of me?"

Xichun gave Sister Feng a helpless look, "Sister Feng must have some understanding of the temperament of the second brother. He doesn't like beautiful sisters getting married the most, and hates those who are officials and butchers, let alone the Marquis of Jing'an. Such a close minister of the emperor. We were all happy for you when we heard that you were given a marriage. Only he sighed and said, "I didn't expect that Sister Feng, a fairy and concubine, would be so worldly, and she would marry such a filthy man." We can't persuade him, thanks to Sister Bao who explained it."

Sister Feng was dumbfounded, "I, a layman like Baoyu, can't understand Baoyu's thoughts. Forget it, I don't need to visit the doctor, lest he see me and be unhappy."

While talking, Baochai came in, and Tanchun said concernedly: "Second brother is better."

Xue Baochai nodded, "It's over."

Xichun stood up, "Hey, what good things did Sister Bao bring?"

Ying'er handed the box in her hand to Xichun, "It's nothing, our wife got a few new palace flowers, let our girl bring them to you."

Xichun opened the box with a surprised expression.She turned around and showed the sisters, "What day is it today? Why did Sister Dibao also send palace flowers? But the flowers in the palace are so beautiful, I want to get two more."

Baochai heard the word 'also' clearly, and couldn't help asking: "Who else sent palace flowers?"

"It's Sister Feng." Xichun asked Ruhua to show Baochai two palace flowers, "Exactly the same except for the color."

Baochai looked at the palace flower and then at Sister Feng.Sister Feng explained with a smile: "Today I went to the palace with my aunt to thank you, and the empress gave it to me at will. I thought I couldn't wear it alone, so I might as well share it with the sisters."

Thinking of Sister Feng's marriage, Baochai suddenly felt depressed.She has always been high-minded, except for Daiyu, no one can match her, and she has never looked down on Sister Feng, but it is the person she has never looked up to, who has stood in a position she cannot reach.

She failed in the draft, and Xue Pan was sentenced to be killed by the autumn queen, and she felt that her future was bleak.If not, how could she compete with Daiyu for Jia Baoyu?She could tell that Daiyu didn't like Jia Baoyu, but Jia's mother was determined to match the two...

She calmed down her depressed mood, and said with a smile: "It's just that I don't like these pollen the most. If you like it, you can take it together."

Although the marriage was bestowed by the emperor, Gu Xingchi had to follow the procedures and customs of folk marriage.Sister Feng said it was troublesome, but she felt happy in her heart. Seeing that Gu Xingchi valued Sister Feng so much, Mrs. Jiang was completely relieved.

"The girl is finally getting married, and she's married so well, Madam finally settled her mind."

Ping'er looked at the pair of wild geese sent by Gu Xingchi, and said with a smile: "Lady Gu invited the girl to Gu's house tomorrow, and the girl can see my uncle again."

Sister Feng said angrily, "What uncle, you're talking nonsense."

Ping'er smiled brightly, "Yes, yes, it's Master Hou. It must be Master Hou who wants to see the girl, so he specially asked Mrs. Gu to invite you over."

Sister Feng scolded with a smile, "If you talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth apart."

Ping'er begged for mercy: "My good girl, please forgive me, I won't dare again."

"Now I am getting more and more courageous. Let me ask you, how is the matter going?"

"Maybe I'll get the news tomorrow night." Ping'er only followed Sister Feng's orders, and even if she didn't understand, she didn't want to ask too many questions. She felt that Sister Feng had a reason for everything she did.

Early the next morning, Sister Feng got the news that Jia Lan was wrapped in a sack and beaten up on the way home from school. It is said that she was disfigured.
