The Legend of the Long Room in the Red Mansion

Both Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng were dumbfounded by this scene.As for Ning Shan, although he had made psychological preparations early on, he still couldn't stand the fact that the Jia family would always be able to refresh his bottom line of tolerance. Thought: "If the women in this dynasty are so tough, it's better for him not to marry a wife."

Thinking of the noble daughters of the Sui and Tang Dynasties in his previous life, although they were bold and unrestrained, and even the princess dared to lead the women's army into battle to kill the enemy, but she had never acted like this at her husband-in-law?Shouldn't weapons be directed towards foreign enemies?If Mrs. Wang came towards Jia Lian or killed him, he would be able to bear it, but if she went towards Jia Zheng, she would scare him to death.Is this the rhythm of wanting to be a widow?

Although the Wang family is also the queen of the general family, Mrs. Wang can also be called the tiger girl of the general family, but she has been pampered for many years, which made her combat effectiveness much smaller than Ning Shan thought. The civil war stopped after half a stick of incense.

It's just that this is enough for Jia Lian to feel sorry for her, and secretly said: "Sister Feng can be regarded as gentle and docile. In the future, she will be well supported. Don't provoke the temper of the second wife."

And what Wang Xifeng was thinking was the same: If Lian Er dares to cheat on me again to hang out with the bastard wife, I will also learn from this aunt.

Jia Amnesty didn't come today, so he missed a good show, but thanks to the fact that he didn't disturb the situation, although Jia Zheng relied on Jia Shi's love for many years, he didn't pay attention to Jia Amnesty, and even thought he could beat and scold Jia Lian at will. , but the bullying and fear of strength and fear of superiors and respect in his bones belong to his natural servility, and he is not as daring as Mrs. Wang to directly confront Ning Shan.

Under repeated threats, he had no choice but to hand over his belongings, lest he end up disrespecting the superior and offending Lord Hou.He still expects his daughter to blow the pillow wind to ask him to be an official. After three years of clearing the magistrate, one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver, and having an official position, still worry about having no money?That is to say, Wang is a stupid woman, stupid and aggressive, she dares to attack her husband, and she doesn't know how to restrain herself when facing high-ranking officials, so she will drag him down sooner or later.If it wasn't for the empress who came out of her belly, I really wanted to divorce her.

Jia Lian took the property back to the mansion, while Jia Zheng went to court Shi Taijun who had returned from offering incense, crying.If you want to talk about why Ning Shan accompanied Jia Lian to ask for debts today, it is because of Shi Taijun's absence. He doesn't like to deal with that old lady, and he always feels that bullying an old woman is invincible.Only Jia Amnesty always loves to commit crimes because he wants to make Shi Taijun regret it, but Ning Shan only loves to deal with Jia Zheng.

Wang Xifeng is not afraid of anyone as long as he has money and power, and he is not afraid of private retribution, so he can still look up to the living?Now she is the biggest in the Rong Mansion, Jia Lian is under her strict control, and the two layers of mother-in-law live in separate houses. It is when she shows off her prestige and ability that she is foolish and bold and takes everything on her head.What's more, Mrs. Wang is not at home, Mrs. Wang is a sinful woman, so what can she do if she has given birth to a concubine, and she is not favored and has no son, so what do you dare to control her?

For the past two years, Shi Taijun has always felt that life is not going well. This time, he went to the temple to fulfill his wish through his mother-in-law's visiting relatives. He also prayed for his mother-in-law to conceive a dragon child early, so he took Baoyu and Daiyu to choose an auspicious day to go to Qingxu Temple Go incense.The old Taoist priest in this temple is still the substitute of her master. Although Jia's family also has a family temple named Tiekan Temple, they still like to come to Qingxu Temple for offering incense and praying for peace of mind.This old Taoist is very sweet-talking, very good at currying favor with Shi Taijun, always saying what she likes to hear, because the incense money Shi Taijun gives to this temple is increasing year by year.

Unexpectedly, she happily asked for a first-class lottery, and as soon as she got home, she saw her beloved young son's face covered in blood, which almost scared her to death.Asking again, it was Ning Shan who caused the trouble again, hated Shi Taijun so disrespectfully, he yelled and cursed while sitting in the hall, he was rougher than the old woman in the mountain village, but the stupid son was cowardly, he couldn't get back the belongings he gave up.Shi Taijun felt sorry for him and hated him for not being able to live up to his expectations. For a while, his mind was buzzing, and he only hated why he didn't strangle Jia She to death back then.

Jia Baoyu was so frightened by his father's appearance of peach blossoms that he burst into tears. The Jia family has always been strict with his father and his mother.But Mrs. Wang treats him like an eyeball, a sharp heart, and she can't be more pampered. When Baoyu saw such a violent mother, she developed a high fever that night, talking nonsense, like crazy.The maids in his room did not dare to hide it, and reported it to Shi Taijun and Mrs. Wang overnight. For a while, the garden was full of crying and scolding, making the Rong Mansion next door restless.

At that time, Wang Xifeng had already moved Aunt Xue and Xue Pan back to Lixiangyuan.Anyway, that little opera singer was prepared for the concubine's relatives, so she naturally wouldn't keep it for nothing, and was thrown into the garden early.No matter how Madam Wang arranges it, anyway, Lixiangyuan is vacant again, Xue Baochai persuaded her mother to move back, because Lixiangyuan, together with Rongfu and Daguanyuan, mother and brother live back, it is convenient for her to go home, what happened? Things are also communicated in a timely manner.

Tonight, as soon as there was a commotion in Baoyu's room, Baochai immediately asked someone to go to Lixiangyuan to tell her mother that the night was getting heavier, and it was inconvenient for her to go to the men's room as a girl, but her mother could visit, which was also to please her. Aunt's meaning.Otherwise, if their family lived in Rong Mansion for a long time, they would be hated by Mrs. Wang sooner or later.

She still wants to enter the palace, although the empress in the palace is not favored and cannot help her, but bad things are easy, so this aunt must not be offended.Their family had previously borrowed so much money to help build the Grand View Garden, but they must not let their efforts fall by the wayside.

Aunt Xue got the news from Baochai's maid, Wen Xing, and regardless of the dew in the middle of the night, she hurriedly put on her clothes and rushed to the Grand View Garden. I did my best.

The Xiaoxiang Pavilion, which is very close to Yihong Courtyard, was also alarmed. However, Lin Daiyu was an orphan and couldn't afford to be courteous, so she asked her maids to pass on news.Shi Taijun was so busy with his beloved grandson that he couldn't take care of his granddaughter for a while, and Mrs. Wang justifiably disliked her because Baochai did her best.

There was a night of commotion in the Grand View Garden, and the existing pills and decoctions were poured down one after another. Countless people surrounded Baoyu, shouting and crying, but there was nothing they could do.At that time it was already a curfew, the capital was under martial law, no one dared to go out, it was not until dawn that the servants were sent to invite the doctor who was sitting in the hall in Beijing.Although the imperial physician is better, but this time has not yet come to court, who dares to invite the imperial physician before the royal family.Although there are imperial physicians on night shift in the imperial hospital, it is impossible for them to come even if they are invited before the imperial court is over.

It's just that Baoyu didn't have a serious illness at first, but he was frightened, and only the Jia family who regarded him as a phoenix egg would make the whole city know about a trivial matter.

By the time all the concubines in the harem heard about it, Jia Baoyu would have been healed long ago.And because of that illness, Shi Taijun spared him morning and evening meditation, and Mrs. Wang didn't let him go to school, so he could only raise him at home with peace of mind.Jia Zheng couldn't say anything, so he simply kept out of sight and out of mind, and devoted himself to his official position.He had a fight with Mrs. Wang, and there was a quarrel between the husband and wife. They had already separated from each other, and they lived in a quiet place by the back door of the Grand View Garden. Let's take care of Baoyu's affairs.

Concubine Jia in the palace wanted to avenge her younger brother and sue Ning Shan. The treasure jade in the Grand View Garden was as happy as a bird in the forest, and she only stayed with her sisters and girls every day, reading, writing, playing piano and chess, painting and singing Poetry, as far as depicting luan and stabbing phoenix, fighting grass and hairpins, singing softly, breaking down characters and guessing pieces, are omnipresent, and I am satisfied, only to feel that there is nothing else to give birth to the heart of greed.

Because of Baoyu's illness, Shi Taijun and the entire second room turned their anger on Ningshan, and even Yingchun was not welcomed.Ning Shan thought, since the day of visiting her relatives was already torn apart, there was no need for her sister to be wronged in vain, so she called her sick, only saying that she had stood in the wind for a long time on the day of visiting her relatives, suffered from the cold, and needed to rest, and could not Seeing people, I didn't go back to pay my respects for several months in a row, but I just sent my personal maids to deliver postings on a regular basis.

Jia Amnesty also had the same reason. He only said that he was old and frail. In order to welcome the concubine Jia, he had been cold for a long time and was not feeling well, so he even asked for leave from court.However, he didn't have anything to do in his position, so the superior simply granted him a month's leave without reporting it.In the harem, Jia Yuanchun actively tried to sue Dafang's family for disrespecting the emperor, but unexpectedly, Ning Shan sent a lot of money to the imperial hospital early in the morning. They all said that from the parents to the youngest sister in Zhenbeihou's family, all were sick because of the provincial relative. The bed gave Yuan Chunsheng a mean and cruel name, and the queen took advantage of the situation to punish him for copying "The Precepts for Women" and "The Rules for Women", and he was also banned and fined.If Zhou Guiren hadn't found a target to share the hatred for him, Yuan Chun wouldn't have been able to come out.

Ning Shan dared to choose this time to make trouble, and she was confident. Now that the court has finished the first stage of quarreling over the matter of entrusting the prince, the emperor has the upper hand.In order to balance the power, it is up to the Supreme Emperor to come forward and initiate the second round.Headed by the four kings of different surnames who are in charge of the military power, for the sake of their own inherent power, it is impossible for the emperor to successfully entrust the princes, otherwise their military power and fiefdom will be taken.

The four kings with different surnames were the generals who contributed the most to the world with the Communist Party in the early days of the founding of the country. In order to commend their contributions, the four kings with different surnames were named.The descendants have always held military power. Except for the former king of Beijing Jing who was born weak, he simply surrendered his military power in exchange for not being degraded. .Among them, King Dongping guards the coast of the West Sea, King Nan'an is in southern Xinjiang, and King Xining guards the vicinity of Ping'an Prefecture in the northwest. The rebellion of Prince Xianyizhong was supported by King Xining. Although the incident failed, the Xining Palace was also implicated. The military power was forcibly taken away, but after all the years of operation, he still has power in his hands. Prince Xianyizhong was given to death, but the Prince of Xining County was only confined to the palace with his family and was not allowed to go out.

The place in Ping'an Prefecture is very close to the barbarians in the northwest. When the King of Xining was stationed, he supported the war with war for a long time and embezzled the soldiers' pay. He suffered from a lot of private illnesses, but they were exhausted during the rebellion of Prince Xianyizhong.However, the original defenders suffered from insufficient military pay for a long time, worn-out weapons, old war horses, and no advantage in killing the enemy. Since King Xining was imprisoned and returned to Beijing, he suffered repeated defeats.This is also the reason why Ning Shan was able to become a Marquis with his military exploits in Northern Xinjiang. If the Ning family hadn't replaced King Xining as a general, no matter how talented Ning Shan was as a general, he wouldn't be able to use it.It's just that he only repelled a few tribes of alien races in northern Xinjiang in that battle, but he failed to wipe them out. Many defeated troops fled into the northwest grassland.

Ning Shan picked the right time, knowing that the four kings will show up soon, and the foreign clan will make a comeback again. At that time, she is not afraid that the emperor will not use him, so it is only a trivial matter to offend the harem mother's family.No matter how confused the emperor is, it is still possible to distinguish the importance of the former court and the harem.If not, the Supreme Emperor would have taken him down a long time ago.

Sure enough, before the concubine could finish visiting her relatives, the four kings headed by King Beijing raised their voices and opposed the emperor's enfeoffment of the prince's land, saying that this move was not conducive to the centralization of power and damaged the supremacy of the imperial power.Because the four kings were originally the veteran ministers of the Supreme Emperor, this move undoubtedly increased the weight of the Supreme Emperor's side, and instantly leveled the situation that was already biased towards the Emperor.

Except for a few cronies of the emperor, those who support the entrustment of the princes are the mother families of the princes in the harem. However, the status of the emperor was not high before he became the throne, and the wives and concubines he married were not from rich families. The power of the mother's family is limited. Those who cling to the high position in the harem can give little help to the emperor, and it would be good if they don't hold back.On the side of the Supreme Emperor, not only the old forces such as the Four Kings and Eight Dukes, but also the Zhen family, who can be called the emperor of Jinling, helped control Jiangnan. Once turned over, the emperor would definitely not be able to resist it.

Thus, the almighty Ning Shan was summoned to the imperial court again.
