It's Hard to Be the Concubine of the Red Chamber

Chapter 1

Since the founding of this dynasty, the first emperor has awarded meritorious officials. In addition to rewarding his own brothers according to their merits, he has also conferred titles on some ministers and generals who have made outstanding achievements. Among them, the four princes and eight princes have the highest status.

Compared with other people who work independently, among the Eight Dukes there is indeed a pair of direct brothers, that is, the first Ning Rong Ergong.

The next generation of Jia Yan and Jia Yuan is the next generation. Jia Daishan of Ronggong's family can be regarded as the emperor's close minister and favorite minister.

Jia Daishan fought in all directions when he was young, but he had many old wounds on his body, so that he died young, leaving only two sons, Jia She, Jia Enhou, Jia Zheng and Jia Cunzhou.

However, because the Duke's wife, Mrs. Shi, is still there, the two brothers have not separated and still live together.

The talents of the two brothers are limited, far less than the heroism of their father and grandfather.The eldest son, Jia Amnesty, was absurd. Although he was a master, he only got the vacant position of a first-class general.The second son, Jia Zheng, got his father's dying plea, and got a sixth-rank real job in the Ministry of Industry. It's a pity that after more than ten years of hard work, he was only promoted to the middle class, and he really didn't see any future.

However, in the next generation, the eldest house only supported Jia Lian's legitimate son and a concubine's daughter Yingchun, but Jia Lian had no great talent and only took care of the household affairs as his own responsibility.In the second room, Jia Zheng had two sons and one daughter from his concubine and one concubine from the Zhao family. His eldest son, Jia Zhu, was a good one, but it was a pity that he had worked so hard for the imperial examination and died young, leaving only one son. The posthumous son Jia Lan, the eldest daughter of the direct line, Yuan Chun, was drafted into the palace in the early years, but she failed to get a result, and she is still in the palace. .

When Yuan Chun entered the palace, it was originally agreed between the Jia family and Concubine Zhen that Yuan Chun should be the concubine of the eldest son of Concubine Zhen. With bad luck on her body, she didn't propose marriage immediately, but kept Yuan Chun in the palace temporarily.

This stay is ten years.

Xiunv should not stay in the palace, but Concubine Zhen was in power in the palace back then and gave Yuan Chun the status of a female official, but no one dared to say anything, it's just that Yuan Chun was tainted with the bad luck of white affairs, but most of those with some connections were not Those who were willing to take in Yuanchun, who came and went frequently, were assigned to Concubine Li.

Li Bin was also born in the general election. She is the daughter of a fourth-rank official family.It's just that her luck is not bad, she became pregnant in the first day of junior high school and gave birth to the emperor's twelfth son, Tu Mingjun, so she has a place in the palace.

But Tu Mingjun is younger after all, and Li Concubine is not favored, so although these two people have a bit of status, they are really transparent people in the palace.

Yuan Chun was only thirteen or fourteen years old when he first entered the palace. Although he was brought up strictly since he was a child, it was hard to get rid of the naive idea that after Jia Zhu's filial piety passed, Zhen Guifei would keep his promise and give herself to the eldest prince as a disciple. Ming Yan, he honestly stayed with Concubine Li for a whole year.

However, Concubine Zhen was the No. 1 harem at that time, and the Zhen family was gaining power day by day due to the existence of the concubine and prince, so how could they care about Rongguo Mansion, which was already declining.

So Yuan Chun was left by Li Bin's side.

It's not that Yuan Chun didn't think about struggling a bit during the period, even if Concubine Zhen didn't make the appointment, he still had to earn a future for himself.When she entered the palace, she brought a lot of money, and her mother, Wang, also felt sorry for her daughter, and gave Yuan Chun a lot of money.Yuan Chun put in a lot of effort and spent a lot of money, but failed to leave Concubine Li's palace.

You know, most of what Yuan Chun valued was the status of the prince's birth mother or the favorite concubine's palace. None of these people were easy-going lamps. They could clearly see Yuan Chun's careful thoughts, and none of them wanted to do this. The individual is by his side.

Yuan Chunsu has always been considered exquisite, but at first he was really panicked, so he seemed anxious, and when he really calmed down, he discovered his problem.Seeing that the powerful masters in the palace didn't treat him very much, he simply gritted his teeth and fell silent, focusing on currying favor with Concubine Li.

When Yuan Chun entered the palace, Tu Mingxun was just a doll under ten years old, because he was considered a transparent person in the palace, although he was not lacking in scheming, he was not as smart as an adult.

Concubine Li is even more easy-going, except for being kind to her own son, she doesn't care much about other people.

There are many men in the Rongguo Mansion who are not capable, but I have to say that the girls among them are all beautiful. Yuan Chun, as the head of the Four Springs, is naturally a top-notch person. When she really made up her mind to please Li Concubine, it was not very difficult. .

As time goes by, although Concubine Li is still aloof and not very enthusiastic, she still gets closer to Yuanchun after all.

However, although Yuan Chun made great efforts to curry favor with Concubine Li, Nei Li did not completely give up on his own future, but after all, the Rongguo Mansion is not as good as it used to be, and Yuan Chun himself is not a character who can overwhelm the country, and no one is willing to provoke him easily. The mess in Shangrongguo Mansion.

Later, Yuan Chun struggled to the death for a few more years, until he was over twenty years old, and then he gave up completely.

However, Yuan Chun also had a ruthless attitude towards himself, since there was no possibility of climbing high branches, he had to leave a retreat for himself, so he ruthlessly devoted himself to serving Concubine Li.

I also thought that I would be like this for the rest of my life, and I would become Concubine Li's confidant. After Tu Mingjun became the king, as a person close to Concubine Li, I would be able to support her natal family after all.

But this kind of support is still limited in the end, it is far inferior to the benefits that Yuan Chun can bring to the family by becoming the concubine of the prince and even the future concubine, the Jia family is naturally not reconciled.But Yuanchun's youth is not shallow after all. Except for her mother, Mrs. Wang, who is still devoted to Yuanchun, everyone else more or less puts more hopes on the sisters at home.

There are four daughters in Jia's family. Except for Yuan Chun, the three younger sisters are about to grow up. The possibility of them getting into a good family is far greater than that of Yuan Chun, a girl who has lost her youth.

----Dividing line------

The Holy Majesty raised sixteen sons in his life, among which the eldest son, Tu Mingxi, was born of Concubine Zhen, and the second son of the emperor, Tu Mingxi, was the only son left by the former empress, and was named the crown prince when he was a baby.The concubine Shen gave birth to the eldest princess and the third prince Tu Mingye successively.The fourth prince was also the son of Concubine Zhen Gui, but he died early in his infancy.The fifth prince's biological mother, An Shi, is a palace official and is not qualified to raise a prince. The fifth prince was raised by Concubine Shu Sun since childhood.

The six princes and the seven princes all died at an early age, and the next eight princes were the successor's only son, but because of the huge goals of being the successor son, they were framed and disabled early on.

The Ninth Prince and the Eleventh Prince were born of the same mother, and the birth mother Wei was also born as a court lady, while the Tenth Prince was the youngest son of Concubine Zhen Gui.

Most of the older princes stood in their own teams. The third prince and the ninety-one three princes stood behind Tu Mingyi waving flags and shouting, while the fifth prince stood behind the prince Tu Mingxi. Had to stand behind the prince.

Because he was not very favored by saints, Tu Mingjun nominated a girl from a fourth-rank Qingliu official's family to be his concubine when he was 17 years old. Concubine Li also chose two daughters of sixth- and seventh-rank officials for his son. Make a side room.

But even if he got a finger marriage, Tu Mingjun still couldn't get a job, so he had to stay idle in his own palace.

But no one expected that the prince Tu Mingxi had been the prince for more than [-] years, and seeing that the Holy Majesty was still in good health, he couldn't bear his thoughts anymore and forced the palace to rebel.

Since he has done such a thing, Tu Mingxi will not get any good, but after all, Tu Mingxi is the Holy Majesty's beloved son, and the group of Tu Mingxi, who really waved the flag and wanted to make trouble, did not get well after all. All of a sudden demoted to go.

The third prince, the fifth prince and the tenth prince all lost their lives in the chaos, the ninth prince was disfigured, the eleventh prince was demoted to the end, the prince Tu Mingxi committed suicide on the spot, the eldest prince Tu Mingyan was imprisoned, and all the princes of the Holy Lord were deposed The useless death of the dead is actually cheap for Tu Mingxuan.

After hearing about the prince's affairs, the emperor seemed to collapse immediately, and the imperial doctor diagnosed that it was not appropriate to worry about it.

The Holy One abdicated and became the Supreme Emperor. When he was thinking about choosing an heir among his remaining sons, he realized that he had few sons left.

So Tu Mingjun, who was ranked [-]th, just took a huge advantage and was established as the crown prince, and became the throne the next year.

Concubine Li, who was silent on weekdays, was named queen first, and then queen mother, which can be regarded as the highest position among women in the world.

Yuan Chun, as the female official next to the queen mother, her status has also risen. Although her age has passed, there are always young and fresh girls in her mother's family.

In any case, of course Yuan Chun would not be willing to make wedding dresses for others, so he managed to get out of the Queen Mother's side. After going through various arrangements, he finally went to Queen He's side.

According to common sense, Rong Mansion is already in decline, and it is absolutely impossible to have the money to support the two girls to fight for this overwhelming wealth.But Jia Wangshi and Xue's four families are all in the same spirit. Although the girl of Jia's family is still young, there is an older girl in Xue's family who is in her prime, so it doesn't delay anything.

So Yuan Chun was not reconciled, and finally fought hard to get to the queen's side. Although she was six or seven years older than the current new emperor, Ming Jun, she was still not willing to give way to others because of her beauty. .

There were so many people in the Rong Mansion, and it was true that her biological mother, Wang Shi, was the only one who stood with Yuan Chun in this respect.That's all for Wang's side, but she is a genuinely loving mother. Not only has she not cut off the money supply to Yuanchun for so many years, no matter how difficult it is, she even gritted her teeth and stole it when Xue Wang's family both wanted to send Xue Baochai into the palace. He plotted against Xue Baochai, and wiped out the Xue family's small election quota on the grounds that Xue Baochai had a brother who killed someone, just to prevent Xue Baochai from entering the palace and cutting off his daughter's life.

She also secretly inquired about a shocking secret by virtue of her status as the head wife, and passed it into the palace through a secret channel, pointing to use this secret to pave her daughter's Qingyun road.
