The Legend of the Long Room in the Red Mansion

After Wang Xifeng fell ill, Aunt Xue got the news and came to see her.

Aunt Xue was ushered into the house by Feng'er, who was full of sorrow. She didn't ask any urgent questions, but she saw Feng'er, who was always strong and refused to show weakness in front of others. Blindfolded, with a dying look, Ping'er stood by and cried, and was startled: "Why is this like this? Where did this start? I'm busy with Xue Biao's marriage these days, so I don't often Come here, I only heard that you were sick, and you thought it was a change of season, how did you get to this point?"

Ping'er couldn't speak, but shook her head and cried. Sister Feng heard it and opened her eyes. Although she didn't speak, the tears flowed endlessly, and Aunt Xue cried too.Although Sister Feng hated Jia Wang's family, she also knew that Aunt Xue, a little aunt, was different from her older aunt, she was not so ruthless, so she didn't take her anger out on her.

Aunt Xue was still asking Ping'er: "Silly girl, what's the use of crying, what is your master's illness, you should ask the imperial doctor to prescribe medicine."

Ping'er cried: "I want my aunt to know that our grandfather is also bedridden. Even if the imperial physician comes, he will take care of that end first. What's more... what's more, grandma... The imperial concubine's illness, the imperial physician can't..." Before he could finish a word, he couldn't make a sound.

Sister Pianfeng also came to cry: "Don't cry, you will die in such a field. What's more, you have seen her like that. If you really fell to that time... I wish I could die today. As long as you You can see me in your eyes, after I die, you raised Miss Qiao, and I will be grateful to you in the underworld."

After hearing this, Ping'er burst into tears.But Sister Feng refused to stop, and still said: "You are also a smart person. Although they didn't talk about me, they would complain about me in their hearts. If I hadn't been competitive and blind, I wouldn't have fallen into the trap and mistakenly captured tigers and wolves. To be a good person, to harm myself and to deceive him. Now that I am so sick, I will not be dismissed and go home. What do you think of the Wang family now? If I go back, there will be a way out? Why don't I just go like this, You can also have half a face behind you."

These words were not only miserable but also terrifying, and Aunt Xue burst into tears: "Sister Feng, Lady Feng, what have you done? Why did you even offend the prince and the royal family?" Even if she was afraid of being divorced, It's all out, how big a crime is this?The Wang family has suffered a complete defeat. Although Mrs. Wang's crimes have not been made public, the result is obvious to all.Now Aunt Xue still dares to live in the capital because she has a niece who has become a concubine.If Wang Xifeng really made a big mistake that would be dismissed by the royal family, her sons and daughters, let alone getting married, and the whole family wiped their necks together as soon as possible, could still die happily.

Sister Feng stopped talking, Ping'er cried even more terribly, and Aunt Xue's heart was broken, and she didn't dare to ask others in the palace, so she had to support the girl and cry all the way home, and she fainted after getting off the sedan chair.

Baochai and Baoqin are in the palace assisting the queen to count the expenses for this month, record them, and prepare to distribute them to the palaces tomorrow.After Baoqin finished her part, she went back to the Xichun Palace. Baochai was still making the final overview. When she raised her head by chance, she suddenly saw a little eunuch poking her head outside. Seeing him looking up at him, she hurriedly beckoned.Baochai understood it, and signaled the little maids who were serving beside her to go to rest, and then made an excuse and said with a smile: "This little eunuch, did you come to see me for something?"

Seeing that there was no one around, the little eunuch leaned closer to Baochai and whispered: "Aunt Xue, the young one is working in the purchasing department. I have seen Uncle Xue a few times when he went to the House of Internal Affairs to deliver and purchase items, and he has received many rewards from Uncle Xue. "This is to explain my identity and background, as well as my relationship with Xue's family, so that Baochai can believe what he said.

When Baochai heard that this person knew her brother, her heart skipped a beat and she hurriedly asked, "But is there something wrong with my brother? Or is there something wrong with the things the Xue family bought?" Xue Pan is gone, I'm afraid he will be as domineering as he was in Jinling, and I'm afraid that he won't know the general affairs and will be deceived by the shopkeeper and the slaves of the family. The most important business of the imperial merchants is the transaction with the palace. If something goes wrong, At the least, the name of the imperial merchant was taken away, and at the worst, the whole family who could be implicated or even the whole family was sent to prison and beheaded.

The little eunuch hurriedly comforted: "Aunt Xue, don't worry, it's not that bad, it's just that Uncle Xue entrusted someone to send a message, and his wife fell ill."

When Baochai heard that Aunt Xue had fallen ill, she burst into tears immediately, and grabbed the little eunuch to ask what the disease was, where the doctor was invited, what medicine was prescribed, and whether it could be cured.The little eunuch looked puzzled: "Aunt Xue, I don't know who Uncle Xue sent here, and I don't know what to do with him. But listening to Uncle Xue, I hope Aunt Xue can find a way to go home."

It is basically hopeless for a female official to leave the palace before the age limit, especially if she is a serious one, but because she met a member of the royal family in this dynasty, at least not as noble as she is now, Baochai is still quite respectable in the palace of.Especially now that Yingchun is still in charge of the palace, the most soft-hearted and nostalgic, she has legitimate reasons, so it is not difficult to ask for it.

The difficulty is that Baochai was afraid that Aunt Xue would suffer from some fatal illness, so she wanted to show her face and ask Yingchun to ask an imperial doctor to go back. Folk doctors are more reassuring.

Baochai wept and went to Yuqing Palace, and knelt outside the door begging to see Yingchun.It's a pity that when Yingchun was not there, she also took away Siqi and Xiuju. Muxiang who stayed behind had no friendship with Baochai, and would not look at her highly. She deliberately went to find Yingchun.Baochai waited for more than half an hour but did not see Yingchun coming back, and couldn't ask where she had gone, so she left crying and went to Baoqin to discuss a solution.

As soon as Baoqin took a nap with Xichun, she heard rumors that Baochai was in a hurry to find her. She hurriedly pulled her hair and went out to have a look. Tell her to try to go home, and she wants to invite an imperial doctor to go back to see it and explain all the key points.She really deserves the title of the highest female official in her palace. Even in such a hurry, she can maintain a clear mind, be orderly, be reasonable, and her eyes are swollen from crying without delay in arranging various affairs.

Baoqin was also very frightened. Now the only elder of their Xue family who can take action is Aunt Xue. Her brother's marriage and where she will go out of the palace in the future are all pointed at Aunt Xue. Half paralyzed.No matter how capable she and her elder sister Baochai were, they were willing to go out and show their faces, but they couldn't manage the outside house in the Forbidden Palace.

Baoqin hurriedly turned around and waited at the door of Xichun's bedroom, and when she woke up, she asked for a token to leave the palace, and checked to see if she could get an imperial physician.

Xichun agreed to let Baoqin go home, and even agreed to go to the queen to help Baochai ask for leave, but she couldn't help with the imperial physician.It would be fine at any other time, Baochai put up a face and begged with Yingchun for a while and there would always be a result.But unfortunately, this time is not quite right.

The doctor was squatting in the small dark room all day thinking about Jia Baoyu, and Ning Shan personally ordered him to put aside all other affairs and go all out to develop the antidote.

The old imperial doctor Zheng is old, except for Jia She, Ning Shan and Ying Hua, no one else has the face to ask him to see him.

Among the other imperial physicians, apart from those who were on duty in the palace, only the one who was in charge of taking care of Daiyu was free, but he also had to be on call at any time.The rest are either guarding Jia Lian in the palace, or helping Yizheng, and in the lobby of the imperial hospital outside, they have to prepare a share that may be used by the princes and ministers in Beijing, so they are all exhausted. A female official whose mother is sick can never even think about getting someone.

Baochai searched for Yingchun all over the palace but couldn't find it. When she went to look for Daiyu, she was told that the princess had suffered from an old illness and was closing the palace for recuperation. No one dared to disturb her.Helpless, I had no choice but to go to Fengyi Palace to beg the Empress Empress for mercy.Yinghua readily granted her leave and asked her to go home to take care of her illness, and there was no set time for returning to the palace, but she couldn't invite the imperial doctor either.The little princess who was born prematurely in the side hall has always been guarded by an imperial physician because of her weak constitution, but it is absolutely impossible for Yinghua to assign her daughter's imperial physician to someone else.

Helpless, Baochai had no choice but to go home with Baoqin in tears to take care of Aunt Xue.

As soon as Baochai left the palace, Yingchun came back. She went out of the palace for Ning Shan to comfort Jia Lian. She coaxed Jia Lian for a whole day but it didn't work.The person in charge of escorting her was Wei Ruomei, the commander of the Royal Forest Army. This person is also thinking about proposing marriage, so he took every opportunity to show positive behavior.

Wei Ruomei is very self-aware, knowing that princesses and princesses are not something he can climb up to, and he is not very happy to be blindly married to the rich ladies in the boudoir, so he focuses on the outstanding and capable female officials.What he set his eyes on was Xue Baoqin, who possesses peerless beauty, and he made no secret that he first fell in love with Baoqin's appearance at first sight, and then inquired about her character and talent.

Although Xue Baoqin is only the daughter of an imperial merchant, her natal family has fallen, and her elder brother has not yet established a family, so it stands to reason that she is not the right choice for Wei Ruomei.However, Xue Baoqin's glamor and innocence, ability and temperament are enough to make up for these shortcomings, and according to the information Wei Ruomei inquired, Baoqin has been able to read and write since she was a child, with an intelligent nature, an open-minded personality, and even more broad-minded vision, which is different from the perennial boudoir. Delicate and fragile.As a warrior, Wei Ruomei also had the dream of being a knight wielding a sword, but his family background meant that he couldn't do whatever he wanted, so the next best thing was to marry a wife who traveled all over the world.

It is impossible to get the emperor's finger to marry a female official. Generally speaking, this matter should be asked by the female elders in the family to ask the queen, but since the current queen is not in charge, Wei Ruomei feels that it is better to be in front of the eldest princess who is in charge of the phoenix seal. It shows that at least let the eldest princess see her own strengths, and then let her mother propose marriage after her own marriage is settled.

Unexpectedly, Prince Taiping became bedridden with an inexplicable serious illness. The emperor was worried about his younger brother, so he postponed the marriage of the princess and princess.The eldest princess does not refer to marriage, that is the girl in the boudoir. Wei Ruomei dared to go to the golden lady Yuxiu to say such a disrespectful offense, so she had to put down her thoughts first, and then wondered if she could find a chance to marry Bao Qin Xian has a little intersection.

Thanks to the Supreme Emperor, who is keen to protect the media, and His Majesty the Emperor's generosity and openness to the marriage of the princess and the princess, and the effect of actions, the restraint of unmarried men and women in this dynasty is much looser than that of all previous dynasties, as long as it is not frivolous. , aboveboard conversations are not prohibited.Wei Ruomei has a ready advantage in wanting to talk to Baoqin—as the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, he is responsible for the safety of everyone and everywhere in the palace. Their whereabouts are also well known.

However, no matter how good the plan is, there will be unexpected sudden changes. Aunt Xue fell ill, and the sisters of the Xue family left the palace to return home, visiting the sick and serving the sick, and the return date was uncertain.To put it bluntly, once Aunt Xue had an emergency, the Xue family would shut their doors for three years, the Xue family sisters could no longer serve as court ladies, Xue Pan couldn't control the slave shopkeeper, and the title of imperial merchant would probably be squeezed out.Xue Baoqin was not the eldest daughter of the eldest son who inherited the position of the imperial merchant, and even if she lost such affiliation, the parents of the Wei family would never agree that the eldest son married the daughter of an ordinary merchant.

Wei Ruomei, who was in a hurry, had no choice but to touch Xue's family and proposed to be happy.
