The Legend of the Long Room in the Red Mansion

Baochai has no objection to staying in the Daming Palace. Looking at the Supreme Emperor does not mean that she has a crush on her, and it is not convenient to have too much real progress with the Emperor now, so it is better to please the Supreme Emperor in the Daming Palace.If the filial piety period is over, allowing the Supreme Emperor to give her to the emperor is also a kind of status improvement, which will benefit a lot.

On the other hand, Xichun didn't like staying in the Daming Palace very much, but she didn't dare to refute the emperor, so she could only hope that her family would come to pick her up soon, and at the same time, she wondered whether the idea of ​​pretending to be sick and bumping into a guest would be okay at this time Take it out and use it?It sounds like that Concubine Zhen is the favorite concubine of the Supreme Emperor, so it should be quite normal to see the ghost of Concubine Zhen in the Supreme Palace, it seems no worse than pretending outside Zi Palace.

The emperor left reluctantly, and stared at Baochai for a while before leaving.At this time, he finally remembered that the favorite concubine of the Supreme Emperor had just died, and suddenly hoped - the favorite concubine of decades had just died, and the Supreme Emperor would not immediately reach out.As long as he doesn't get his hands on her, sooner or later he will be able to get the beauty out again.

Mrs. Xing sat in front of Yuanchun anxiously, while Yuanchun was bored but had to sit with her, because she was afraid that the emperor would bring people back again, and seeing her treat Mrs. Xing, who was "the so-called family and elder", would harm her virtuousness, elegance and dignity. Kind image.As a result, the two waited for a long time, but the emperor did not come back, neither did Baochai and Xichun.Yuan Chun sent people out to inquire for a long time before he found out that both of them were left in Daming Palace by the Supreme Emperor.

Mrs. Xing was stunned.

As soon as Mrs. Xing, who was in a dazed state, returned home, Yingchun and Daiyu came to pay her respects, and took Xichun back to Lingshayuan by the way.In the end, they didn't see anyone, and the two sisters were taken aback. After finally learning the truth from the confused Mrs. Xing, they were also shocked.

Because Ning Shan hadn't come home yet, and Princess Yinghua didn't dare to disturb her, Yingchun took Daiyu and ran to find Jia Amnesty.After hearing this, Jia Amnesty was dumbfounded, and he said in a daze for a long time: "Why did you take the fourth girl down? Could it be that there is some lack of etiquette? This can't be done, my eldest son's face is there, a little bit small No one should care about the problem. And what happened to the Xue family? How did she run into the palace? Did she cause trouble and implicate the fourth girl?"

Yingchun twisted her cuffs vigorously, unscrewing all the delicate embroidery threads; Daiyu had tears in her eyes, regretting that she should not have let Xichun enter the palace.The three masters were worrying about each other, when they suddenly heard a word from outside that Lian's second master and second grandmother had come to say hello.Jia She jumped up as if his butt was on fire and shouted, "Call in quickly."

Yingchun Daiyu also looked forward to it. Jia Lian was quite good at running errands to inquire about things in the family, and he made good friends with the father, son and brother of Dongfu who were more well-informed.At this moment, they all hoped that someone would inquire about the inside story, and Jia Lian was simply a good ladder for them to run into.

Jia Lian, who was kicked away by her own father before entering the mansion, ran to the East Mansion humming, and told Jia Zhen, the elder brother, about Xichun.Although Jia Zhen didn't pay much attention to that younger sister, he paid a lot of attention to the thigh hugged by her younger sister.Therefore, Jia Rong and Jia Qiang were urgently ordered to enter the palace to investigate the situation.Jia Rong is the captain of the Dragon Guard, who is in charge of guarding the Daming Palace, and Jia Qiang is the Luan Yiwei, who travels with the emperor.

The location being inquired - in the Daming Palace, the Supreme Emperor is looking for Princess Yinghua's physical condition.Baochai didn't know this at all, so Xichun could only answer at her own discretion.Xichun was also very vigilant because she had heard too much that the Supreme Emperor intended to take away the children of Brother Ning and the princess's sister-in-law. According to the story that her sisters made up for her, she kept emphasizing that Princess Yinghua was weak and couldn't eat well or sleep well in the past. Okay, my physique is very poor, my pregnancy is terrible, and the child will probably have a weak disease after birth...

Baochai was terrified when he heard that, how could anyone dare to say that the royal family's health problems were so serious?In particular, Xichun keeps repeating that Princess Yinghua's poor health is due to too much abuse in the past - can this be said in front of the Supreme Emperor?Regardless of whether it was his negligence that made Princess Yinghua suffer so much, just telling the father that his daughter is not in good health is enough to deserve a beating, okay?What's more, even the next generation is carried along. If you say it at a young age, it's called no dignity, and at an older age, it's a curse on the princess.

But Baochai, who didn't dare to interrupt at will in front of the Supreme Emperor, had no choice but to pull Xichun's clothes corner as unobtrusively as possible, suggesting that she shut up.It's a pity that the movements were too small and the force was too light, Xichun basically didn't feel it, and just poured out what he wanted to say in one go, and was so tired that he was a little out of breath after he finished speaking.

The Supreme Emperor heard that Princess Yinghua's poor health would affect the fetus in her womb, and was not happy. However, Xichun's quick words were all attributed to the bad life in the past and the experience of being treated coldly. Unable to vent again, her old face turned black from holding back, and she scolded angrily: "This girl is so rude, she doesn't care about what she says in front of the widows, ask the director of palace ceremonies to teach her before sending her back." He regarded Xichun as a talented female officer serving Princess Yinghua, and never asked Xichun's surname and origin.

Although Baochai didn't say a word, she was also rejected by the Supreme Emperor, and was sent to the Palace Ceremony Division along with Xichun to learn palace rules and etiquette.Xichun was very happy to leave, she would rather learn the rules than stay in front of the Supreme Emperor.Baochai was not very happy, she still wanted to show it in front of the Supreme Emperor, but the fourth girl's words were really indifferent, and she was also troubled. ,

The Supreme Emperor didn't intend to do anything to the two girls. In his eyes, these two people could not just serve Yinghua. If they were taught better, they could serve well, and they would be good to his grandson who was always in his heart.The Supreme Emperor is already thinking about giving the two of them an official post after learning the rules better, and then sending them back to Yinghua's side. Presumably, doing so will also make them more loyal.

Poor Baochai was still looking forward to finding an opportunity to fall into the eyes of the Supreme Emperor so that he would be bestowed a position in the harem by Jinkou, but unexpectedly, he was already thinking about how to send two more female officials to his married daughter.

The day Xichun didn't come home caused the Ning family's high vigilance. If it wasn't for the fact that it was too late to enter the palace, Ning Shan wanted to enter the palace immediately to bring the little girl back.Fortunately, Jia Qiang came to report in time, saying that Xichun was sent to the Palace Ceremony Division by the Supreme Emperor, so that he could learn the palace rules and etiquette, and everyone was relieved.Seeing this, Jia Qiang swallowed the news that a girl suspected to be Baochai was also sent to the Palace Ceremony Division.He'd better wait for the inquiry to be clearer before reporting, so as not to make a mistake and make a fuss for nothing.

Originally Mrs. Xing met Baochai in the palace, but she was a little stimulated today, so she forgot about it, and it seemed that she didn't know when she would remember it again.Shi Taijun in the Grand View Garden also missed the news that the girl from the Xue family had entered the palace today. Mrs. Wang was afraid that she would find out why she didn't send Tanchun to her, so she kept the matter of Baochai secret and ordered someone to guard her. Tanchun gave her no chance to complain.

When Shi Taijun returned home, he sent someone to find Mrs. Wang, saying that he had something to discuss.Mrs. Wang had ghosts in her heart at first, and she was afraid that Shi Taijun would ask about Baochai or Tanchun, but when Shi Taijun saw her, he rejected everyone, not even his confidant mandarin ducks.Seeing this, Mrs. Wang was spinning all kinds of thoughts in her mind, and desperately recalled whether she had exposed her feet recently. As a result, Shi Taijun asked urgently when she opened her mouth: "Second brother, your medicine, what is it? Is there any more? If not, how can I get another pair?"

Mrs. Wang thought for a while before she realized: "The old lady is talking about the one your mother wants..."

Shi Taijun said anxiously, "Are you really interested?"

Mrs. Wang hurriedly cried out: "How can I not care about my mother's matter? It's just that I really... have nothing now."

Shi Taijun didn't care to ask how the medicine came from, how much she brought to Jia's house, and how many people in Jia's family she brought with her, so she was in a hurry to force her to find another pair quickly: " I don't care where you got the medicine, you just find me another medicine quickly? Either you ask someone to get it, or you make another medicine for me, there will be a lot of delay with the empress. "

Mrs. Wang was terrified by Shi Taijun's tone: "Old lady, what happened to your empress? You entered the palace today...but did you see your empress?"

Shi Taijun sighed, leaned on the pillow slumped, and said with heartache in his tone: "See you, ma'am... It hurts my old lady's heart..."

Mrs. Wang immediately burst into tears: "Old lady, what's wrong with your mother, tell me, but the emperor..."

Shi Taijun threw a cushion over and shouted in a low voice: "Stupid woman, keep silent. Can the emperor just say it?"

Mrs. Wang hurriedly covered her mouth, choked with sobs and said, "Old lady, what's wrong with your mother?"

Shi Taijun leaned back again, sighed and said: "I saw that the lady's complexion is gloomy, her body is unhealthy, and she's on the side of Concubine Qing, so she's being restrained a lot. Concubine Qing doesn't give us any face at all. Today, I wanted to talk to my empress, but the empress Qing didn’t allow us ladies to talk alone..."

Mrs. Wang burst into tears and promised, "I will definitely get the medicine as soon as possible. It was given by my father, and it has already been used up. I don't have it now... I'm afraid my elder brother still has it." Yes. I'll write a letter right now and ask my brother..."

Shi Taijun said angrily: "How can such an important matter be written in a letter? Send someone from your royal family who is reliable."

Mrs. Wang nodded again and again, and hurriedly got up to go back to find someone. Seeing that she was about to go out with a crying face, Shi Taijun became more and more angry and said: "You are going out like this? Who are you showing? You want people to say that I am old. Has the wife treated her daughter-in-law badly?

Mrs. Wang was burning with anger, her daughter was having a hard time in the palace, but this old lady was still picky about small things, and she really didn't feel sorry for her if it wasn't her own.But at the moment it was obvious that Shi Taijun could not be offended, Mrs. Wang then argued: "It's my daughter-in-law who is reckless, but I'm worried about my mother, so I can't help but..." Before she could finish her sentence, the tears flowed even more fiercely.Shi Taijun also felt very sad when she saw it, so she waved her hand and signaled her to go to the inner room to tidy up before going back.

As soon as Mrs. Wang returned to the room, she anxiously ordered someone to find her confidant Zhou Rui's family to come in, but this matter was so important that she didn't dare to tell Zhou Rui's family everything, let alone let Zhou Rui know, so she just asked him to bring him Go to Wang Ziteng for the letter, and you must hand it to him face to face, and you must return with a reply letter.Mrs. Wang still doesn't intend to adopt Shi Taijun's suggestion, she can't trust others, even her confidants have reservations.She just felt that it would be safer to entrust a relatively reliable person to send the letter to her elder brother to open it face to face.As for whether this letter will be lost on the road, stolen, etc., it is not conceivable by Mrs. Wang's barren mind that can only dominate the backyard.

Originally, no one would stare at such a small person as Mrs. Wang, but who let her block Ning Shan's eyes, and because of Qin's death, Ning Shan was on guard, so Zhou Rui's sneaky attempt at the curfew The soldiers who sneaked out of the city before were sent by Ning Shan to watch Mrs. Wang's bodyguards reported in detail.Ning Shan ordered people to go out to the city gate, stopped Zhou Rui, found an excuse to search for his package, and found Mrs. Wang's letter without any accident.

Zhou Rui was detained in the Beijing Camp Temporary Detention Center on the grounds that he was going out of the city close to the curfew time, and the soldiers rushed to report to Ning Shan with letters.Ning Shan tore open the letter to read it, and said with a smile: "This woman is so stupid, she dares to send such a terrible thing by letter? Then Wang Ziteng is also a traitor, and it is pitiful to have such a younger sister. Look."

Jia She sneered darkly: "That Wang Ziteng defended the Wang family regardless of indiscriminately. Back then, your mother's death was unknown, so I suspected it was related to the Wang family. Unfortunately, there was no evidence, and instead, Wang Ziteng beat him up. Now that they have evidence, their royal family is so bold that they secretly bought sex from foreign domains and played with human lives, and now they are even more arrogant, and dare to do it in the palace."

Ning Shan chuckled lightly, and said: "The emperor is also a fool, since he is so determined to get his wife into the palace, why bother to stare at the Sixth Prince and kill the Supreme Emperor directly, wouldn't it be a one-and-done one?"

Jia She shrank his head in fright, looked left and right, and remembered that this was on Ning Shan's territory, so he felt relieved, but still said in a low voice: "Son, don't be so blunt. I can't tell."

Ning Shan didn't take it seriously: "If I couldn't even control this mansion, I would have resigned and returned to my hometown a long time ago."

Jia She said with a shy smile, "That's right."

Ning Shan said: "How about giving you a chance to make meritorious service?"

Jia Amnesty asked curiously, "What opportunity? What kind of merit?"

Ning Shan raised the letter in her hand and said with a smile: "Send this to the Supreme Emperor, and I will guarantee you an official promotion."

Jia Amnesty was very excited: "You want to cheat Wang?"

Ning Shan said: "Who has time to argue with a woman? Didn't you say that Wang Ziteng bullied you? With this letter, I guarantee that he will not be able to explain it clearly."

Jia She is gearing up: "Okay, I will enter the palace at dawn tomorrow. Hehe, their royal family intends to poison the sixth prince..."

Ning Shan interrupted Jia She, and pointed out mercilessly: "I think it's not unreasonable for you to be bullied by Wang Ziteng, you're just a bit stupid."

Jia Amnesty said unconvinced, "Why am I so stupid?"

Ning Shan threw the letter into Jia She's arms, got up and took a piece of paper, intending to imitate the handwriting to forge a letter, and had to send it back to Zhou Rui before dawn so that he could deliver the letter to Wang Ziteng.One side said casually: "What is the reason why the Wang family wants to kill the sixth prince? They have traveled thousands of miles to get a prince to enter the palace, but they want to murder a prince who originally lived outside the palace?"

Jia Amnesty still didn't turn around, so Ning Shan had no choice but to point it out: "Don't you think there is one person in the palace who is more worthy of dealing with than the Sixth Prince?"

Jia Amnesty's eyes lit up with a "bass", and holding the letter in both hands, he slowly turned his head and looked out of the dark window, with an excitement that could entrap his old enemy on his face, and after a long time, he began to laugh wickedly.
