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

After being silent for a while, Xue Baochai said: "Mom, this marriage should not have been settled casually."

Aunt Xue thought she had heard it wrong, "Your aunt and I had planned the golden and jade marriage between you and Baoyu a long time ago. How could it be decided casually? It is a foregone conclusion now, so don't think about it."

Pausing for a while, Aunt Xue sighed, "Mom also knows that you have been wronged. If Baoyu is motivated, it's okay, but if he still doesn't know how to improve...don't blame him, we are also high-ranking. If you don't choose Jia What kind of family can you find? Although your uncle has been dismissed, but with a virtuous concubine, it is not comparable to other families outside. You have to understand this. Now our Xue family is no longer what it used to be. Now, I only have you as a child, if your marriage has another twists and turns, this day will really be over."

When Xue Pan was mentioned, sad things came to mind again. Baochai hurriedly went to comfort her without caring about her own thoughts.

In fact, Xue Baochai also knew that what Aunt Xue said was right. For her, this was already the best choice, but it was just that she couldn't make up her mind after all.

Aunt Xue wiped the corners of her eyes, "I know that my son's appearance and talent are enough to match anyone, but it's only because of his birth. This is the end of the matter, and I will find opportunities to urge Baoyu to study more in the future."

Xue Baochai nodded, but had no choice but to compromise, "Mom is right, but let's put it aside to visit my aunt in prison, those people will not embarrass my aunt for the sake of uncle."

It was not until the day of exile that Aunt Xue had the chance to see Mrs. Wang. Of course, this was the last time.

Perhaps Jia Zheng resented Mrs. Wang so much that he had no intention of sending her off. Jia Baoyu was the only one in the entire Jia family. Mrs. Jiang also sent Mrs. Wang off for the last time in the autumn wind for the sake of Prince Teng.

Mrs. Wang had a bad relationship with Mrs. Jiang, and because of Sister Feng, she didn't want to give Mrs. Jiang any good looks, so she just said goodbye to Aunt Xue and Jia Baoyu.

Jia Baoyu cried until he was choked up, lying on Mrs. Wang's body sobbing and unable to speak. Mrs. Wang hugged him tightly, thinking that she would never see her precious son again.

The jailer secretly took advantage of Sister Feng, and did not give them too long to say goodbye, and after a few words, he was about to take Mrs. Wang away.

"Sister, take care on the way." Aunt Xue quickly hung a bundle on Mrs. Wang's body, "Here are some changes of clothes, keep them for wearing."

Because she was afraid of being robbed, Aunt Xue didn't say that there was still money in it.

Thinking that I will be exiled to Lingnan, I don't know if I can be rescued successfully. Are those words that Sister Feng said true or are they scaring her?She became more and more anxious, nodded absently and said: "Sister, Baoyu will trouble you to take care of her from now on..."

Before she finished speaking, the jailer pushed her, "There is no end, so hurry up and leave, don't waste time!"

Seeing Mrs. Wang walking away, Aunt Xue couldn't help looking from afar, with tears in her eyes.

Mrs. Jiang said: "I know Second Aunt's grandma is sad, but it's getting cold, you'd better go back quickly, be careful not to catch the wind and cold."

Aunt Xue wiped her tears, "Please trouble sister-in-law to be concerned." She seemed to remember, and glanced at Mrs. Jiang, "Why didn't Feng girl come with sister-in-law today?"

Mrs. Jiang responded casually: "Sister Feng has not been feeling well these two days. Yesterday someone sent a message saying that she can't come today."

"That's a pity, I didn't see the last one." This tone, I don't know if it's a pity or a complaint.

Mrs. Jiang said with a smile: "It's also because the child is not healthy, but he just got sick in the past two days. I just hope that my aunt will not be offended."

Even so, Xue Baochai could hear the meaning of maintenance clearly.She hurriedly said: "Mom, you don't know how strong Feng girl's temper is. How have you ever missed such an important matter in the past? I must be really sick this time. If my aunt goes to visit the doctor, she will tell Feng girl for us. Just ask me."

"That's natural." However, Mrs. Jiang still felt that this sounded a little uncomfortable, and she couldn't say it for a while.

It wasn't until she returned to Wang's house that Mrs. Jiang came to her senses and her face sank.

Tweety asked: "Ma'am, what's wrong with you?"

Mrs. Jiang was helped out of the carriage by the girl, and she snorted softly, "Forget it, if you don't like it, you can't look down on it. You don't have to get mad at yourself for this. No matter what others think, as long as Mrs. Gu likes us, Sister Feng, that's fine. .”

Cui'er smiled and said, "Ma'am said, who in this capital does not envy our big girl's good marriage."

The loan shark case involved many people, some in prison, some in exile, however, this did not really close the case, but involved other people.

Within a few days, it was heard that Jia Yucun had been dismissed and would never be employed again.

"I heard that everyone was recruited. The reason why they dared to give us loan sharks was to bribe Jia Yucun. With Jia Yucun's protection, it would be much cheaper to do things, but Jia Yucun still yelled that he was wronged."

Sister Feng smiled, "It's a person's instinct to cry out for injustice, whether they are really wronged or not. Especially like Jia Yucun, who has gone through ups and downs to get the post of governor of Shuntian Mansion. How about pleading guilty?"

"So what, the evidence is conclusive. The account books searched from his room, when he took bribes, who he took bribes, and how much bribes he took, are written clearly one by one. Those people all identified him, and he There is no way to quibble." Gu Xingchi had deep eyes and said with a smile, "Obviously I can do this too, why do you use King Zhongshun?"

"Knowingly asking."

Gu Xingchi nodded her nose, "I just didn't know you had so many evil ideas."

"Anyway, King Zhongshun didn't deal with Jia's family at all, so it's not for nothing. King Zhongshun had to spare Jia Baoyu that time, and he must still be angry. Naturally, he must find a way to make up for it. It just so happens that Jia Yucun is from the Jia family's side. It is not surprising that King Zhongshun uses him to vent his anger. Therefore, I will let you secretly reveal this person in Jia Yucun to King Zhongshun. After he has checked Jia Yucun, can he still sit still? For him, making An unjust, false or wrongly decided case is definitely not a problem, and Jia Yucun's hands are not really clean, and it is easy to bring him down. More importantly, if someone really finds out, they will definitely not find us."

Gu Xingchi liked her little self-satisfaction after scheming, so he couldn't help but also laughed, "Then why do you let me appear less in front of Master Lin?"

"It's a guilty conscience. Master Lin is not stupid. We took advantage of him to do this series of things. I'm always afraid of being discovered by him. In the last few days, you just need to avoid him."

Gu Xingchi held her hand and put it on his heart, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Sister Feng shrank into his arms and sighed, "The weather is getting colder and the road to Lingnan is far away. I don't know if my aunt can bear it."

Sister Feng was talking about Mrs. Wang here. After half a month, there was news that Mrs. Wang fell ill on the way and left within a few days.

Sister Feng, who got the news, changed into more plain clothes and went to Wang's house.

Ping'er sighed secretly, "My aunt is gone like this, the slaves can't believe it's true."

Sister Feng took a deep look at her, "It's true, of course it's true, who can bear the crime of deceiving the emperor?"

"So, do you still want to go to Rongguo Mansion?"

Sister Feng shook her head, "The Rongguo Mansion must be in a hurry when they hear the news that my aunt is gone, so let's not add to the chaos, and wait until the funeral reporter arrives."

Sure enough, not long after, the Rongguo Mansion sent someone to Wang's house to report the funeral.Although she didn't want to see Jia's family, Mrs. Jiang still found time to go to Rongguo Mansion with Sister Feng.

Compared with the sorrow and depression in Rongguo Mansion, Mrs. Jiang and Sister Feng are really peaceful.

The servants in the mansion were running around, rushing in and out, and occasionally heard someone whispering together, as if they were discussing what to do about Mrs. Wang's funeral.

Mrs. Wang is a guilty body, Jia Zheng wants to keep everything simple, but Jia Mu said that she should do something big because she is afraid of causing Wang Ziteng's dissatisfaction.For a while, Jia Zheng was also in a dilemma.

The people in the lobby, whether they were genuine or not, all acted like they were weeping, and Jia Baoyu was the one who cried the most.

When she saw Mrs. Jiang and Sister Feng, Mother Jia asked Yuanyang to help her up, and walked tremblingly to Mrs. Jiang.

Mrs. Jiang hurriedly stopped, "You are not in good health, so don't get tired."

Looking at the gloomy and misty room, everyone's crying eyes were red, Mrs. Jiang said: "Old Madam, my aunt is gone, you can't fall anymore, let's mourn."

Jia Mu and Jia Zheng are not 'sorrowful' but 'sorrowful' now.The Wang and Jia families were already estranged, and now that Mrs. Wang had died, the big tree Wang Ziteng couldn't hold on to.Although Xue Baochai will marry in in the future, she is not from the Wang family.

The most important thing is that Mrs. Wang is dead, can Yuanchun's marriage still be done?

Jia Mu lamented, "She left with only one precious jade. What will she do in the future?"

"How is Baoyu now?"

Mother Jia pointed to Jia Baoyu who was squatting in the corner, "I have been crying since the news came, and almost passed out from crying. No matter how much we persuaded me, I refused to go back to rest."

Sister Feng said softly, "I'll go and see my cousin."

Mother Jia nodded, "Go ahead, your cousins ​​have been in good relationship since childhood, it's best for you to persuade him."

Mother Jia looked at Sister Feng, and found that Sister Feng's whole temperament was different after she got married. Even though she was plain, she was still graceful.At this moment, she felt somewhat regretful, if she hadn't promised Jia Lian and Sister Feng to resign, maybe Wang Ziteng would still be reliable.

But now Sister Feng is the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, and the Gu family is liked by the emperor. Whether it is in terms of in-laws or interests, what reason does Wang Ziteng have to help the Jia family?Unless Prince Teng wants to be hated by the emperor.

Mother Jia hoped that Sister Feng could get in touch with Jia Baoyu, which might be useful in the future.But Sister Feng felt that she had nothing to say to Jia Baoyu, and Jia Baoyu had a girl named Bao beside him, so it was her turn to persuade her.Therefore, she just said a few words on the occasion.

According to the rules, if a daughter marries into the royal family, she is a member of the royal family. Naturally, Yuan Chun cannot wear sackcloth and mourning for Mrs. Wang, nor can she burn paper to pay homage.But out of filial piety, Yuan Chun still needs to be informed about this matter, and let's talk about it by the way.

Therefore, when it was time to enter the palace, Jia Zheng followed Fu Qiufang and other female relatives to the palace.

When she came back, Mother Jia hurriedly asked, "What did you say, Your Majesty?"

Even though the weather was cold, Jia Zheng broke out in a sweat, "Let's not talk about Madam, when I was talking to Madam, His Majesty came suddenly."

Everyone was startled and then pleasantly surprised. Does this mean that Concubine Xiande is very favored by Emperor Tianshun?

"What did His Majesty say?" Mother Jia asked.

After resting for a while, Jia Zheng said: "It's just a random casual talk, listening to His Majesty, it seems that I didn't offend my wife and the Jia family because of the Wang family's affairs."

Jia Mu breathed a sigh of relief, put her hands together, and said repeatedly: "Amitabha, God bless, this is good, this is good."

"But there is a saying, I don't understand what His Majesty means?" Jia Zheng frowned, stood up and paced back and forth, "Your Majesty said something common to me, and naturally he talked about your empress. Rong Yan's skills are all outstanding, it must be that you, the father, taught you well, and I am very satisfied. I remember that Concubine Xiande has been in the palace for some years, so she must be very homesick."

"Then how did you reply?"

Jia Zheng stopped in his tracks, "Naturally, I say that it is your blessing to be able to enter the palace to serve His Majesty."

Jia Mu thought for a while, "Maybe this is a good thing?"

Jing'an Hou Mansion.

Sister Feng confirmed again, "Your Majesty really said that?"

"Can I still lie to you?"

Sister Feng looked at him for a while, then suddenly laughed, the smile was so bright that it seemed to fill the room with light.

Gu Xingchi picked her up and sat on the beauty's couch, "What are you laughing at?"
