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

Chapter 94

The movement of Yuan Chun's side has never been hidden from Tu Mingjun, and Yuan Chun has never meant to hide it.

Even Yuan Chun himself couldn't wait to complain as soon as he saw Tu Mingjun.

"I only have this nephew, my brother's posthumous son, and my mother's only grandson, but my mother doesn't like him very much. Even this time my nephew entered the palace and my mother didn't think about it. It’s inevitable that I’m a little cold-hearted.” Yuan Chun sighed, unable to hide his helplessness, “When my younger brother was born, the elder brother was still there, and he had already won the Juren, and a juvenile Juren can be considered an outstanding talent, as he is more than ten years younger than his concubine. The younger brother, but no one thinks that the younger brother should do the same, but it is delayed. The so-called three-year-old looks old, even now this younger brother is only very spiritual in poetry and songs, but he regards official career as a scourge. Although the concubine’s family also It can be regarded as a title, but it is something in the uncle's family. The line of my concubine's father now seems to depend on the ability of this nephew in the future. However... the mother thought that it was the sister-in-law's nephew Ke I have lost my elder brother, and I don’t like them very much on weekdays. Even this time my nephew got the favor, and he wanted his concubine’s brother to replace him. Let the concubine have nothing to say."

Baoyu's so-called blessing of being born with jade is something that cannot be mentioned in the palace, so Yuanchun only puts the reason why Baoyu is favored by the so-called old man.

It is often said that the youngest son and grandson are the lifeblood of the old lady. It is not incomprehensible that Mrs. Wang does not love her grandson and her youngest son.As for the so-called birth of jade, the rich people often make various arguments in order to invite pets. If there is not too much trouble, most of the time the royal family is actually too lazy to care about it.

The premise is that the Jia family can't talk about this matter all the time, and don't poke the royal family's sensitive nerves again.

Yuan Chun naturally understood this truth, so he simply talked around Jia Lan, who had a relatively safe identity: "I met this nephew when I was visiting relatives. Although he is still young, he actually looks a bit like a brother of a concubine. He is very diligent and studious. Now that he is blessed to enter the palace to study, he finally won't let my concubine worry that the family will delay him, and it can be regarded as my concubine, who is an aunt, pulling him a hand."

With the status and power of Rongguo Mansion, most of the teachers who can be invited are scholars, and even the status of Juren is probably very rare—and even if such a good teacher is found, it is impossible for Jia Lan to get the honor of.But most of those who can be teachers to the princes in the palace are the most knowledgeable people in the world.

Tu Minghao also understood this point.

The so-called people have their own ambitions. Although it must be hard work to be a prince's companion in the harem, it is naturally very sad for Baoyu who grew up pampered, but for Jia Lan who is not favored at home, even if the so-called The glory of being able to get the guidance of a famous teacher is undoubtedly the best thing.

Fortunately, although Tu Jinghuai was raised in the palace, he was not the parent and child of Tu Mingxuan after all. Although it was an honor, it was better than not being accompanied by a serious prince.And because of the embarrassing status of the son of the old prince Yizhong, it was not easy to use the son of the important minister's family in the court, so he took advantage of a family like the Rongguo Mansion and chose Jialan who was born in Baiding.

Whether it was Jia Lan who was really working hard in the harem, or Li Wan who was reluctant to part with his son in the Rongguo Mansion, they couldn't help but worship and be very grateful for this.

Although Yuan Chun was willing to persuade Mrs. Wang in advance, he had no control over the affairs of the Rongguo Mansion, so Yuan Chun had to talk to Jia Lan about some unpleasant things.

"Our family is indeed lacking in civil servants. If the elder brother had not won the position of Liandi's Imperial Academy, or he was talented, he might not be able to obtain the status of a tribute. Although your grandfather was a serious Jinshi, But after all, you have already retired, and there are not many people who can help you. And the old lady and wife in the family love your little uncle more. This person is always partial. I’m close to big brother, and I’m willing to help you out.” When Jia Lan came to Fengzao Palace with Tu Jinghuai to thank him after class on his first day in the palace, Yuan Chun made it clear to Jia Lan, “It’s just It is impossible for me to teach the elders for you, but I can only give you a chance to make progress, there will never be any better gentlemen in this world than those in the palace, and whether you can achieve something here depends on your own ability."

"Entering the palace to study with you must be hard work, but in the end it is a great honor. Although your name is written on the decree, you should know that when my wife entered the palace before, she was thinking whether Baoyu could replace you name." Yuan Chun knew very well what kind of life Jia Lan was leading at home, and at the moment he did not hide the thoughts of the head of the family at all, "Although I persuaded my wife, I only said that the life in the palace was hard and no one was allowed to serve her. Besides, your little uncle is not a person who loves to read, so he is not suitable for entering the palace. But his wife is also your grandmother, and you should know her temperament. Even if I say so, I may not really give up. Ben Although Gong is willing to help you, but I don't want to take care of family affairs. How you talk after you go home is your business. Baoyu is also the younger brother of Ben Gong, and Ben Gong persuaded his wife once before, but If your name is changed after you return home this time, Ben Gong will not help you anymore."

Yuan Chun is indeed willing to help the family members, but it is impossible to win everyone without limit.Although what happened to Jia Lan this time was the grace given by the empress, but in the end it was because of Yuan Chun's face that he chose Jia Lan.Although Yuan Chun was willing to persuade Mrs. Wang once again, if Jia Lan himself was robbed of his spot again, it would be impossible for Yuan Chun to help him in this way.

No one in this world can always help another person unconditionally. If Jia Lan fails to seize this opportunity, it can only be regarded as bad luck for the other person.

Although Jia Lan is only ten years old now, he is always more mature because he was not favored since childhood.Although what Yuan Chun said this time was not pleasant, but it really helped him.This made Jia Lan, who has almost never received kindness from anyone except his biological mother since he was born, very excited. He was very grateful for the kindness of Yuan Chun, an aunt whom he only met once.

And Yuan Chun didn't avoid Tu Jinghuai when he said this.

Because Yuan Chun felt that, compared to those princes who had grown up in the palace as princes since birth, Tu Jinghuai, who had the status of a prince but lived with the slaves in the suburban Zhuangzi for six years, undoubtedly understood human feelings better. He is cold and warm, and with his identity, he should learn how to position himself from these things.

From Yuan Chun's point of view, although Jia Lan's entry into the palace as a companion this time is beneficial to him and not harmful, it is also beneficial to Tu Jinghuai.

"There are not many people in the harem now. Although the emperor's prince is still young, your grandfather still has some princes and concubines who have not left the palace. Although you are now a prince, most of your little uncles are empty Prince, it seems that you are more noble, but some things cannot be counted that way." Although Tu Jinghuai is still young, Yuan Chun still reminds him to live carefully, "Your little uncles are serious. The prince of the Eight Classics, and because of his young age, he has no influence and will not be tabooed by anyone, but you are different. You should know that your father was once a noble man, and he had some old ministers' influence. These If people are truly loyal, they should only hope for your safe life. But there are always people who are ambitious and want to hold the emperor to make the princes. I taught you to read the Three Kingdoms, whether it is Shaodi or Xiandi, it is useless. Good results. You are the concubine son of the old prince. To put it bluntly, even if your father was able to succeed to the throne, you would never be able to sit in that position. You only see your grandfather let the emperor raise you The palace should know what the Supreme Emperor means."

Although this statement is a bit harsh, it is the real truth.Although Tu Jinghuai is still young now, but after being taught by Yuan Chun for a while, and at least two years of studying in the upper study room, it is not hard to hear the advice.

"The head of the family loves my younger brother more, but Lan Geer is the eldest son and grandson of my father and mother. Lange will be your companion in the palace. You should study quietly in the study to learn the skills to become an official in the imperial examination in the future , but you are now the prince, but there is no room for further progress. I think you should also learn from Lang Geer how to relax your mind and bide your time. After all, no matter whether it is the emperor or the emperor. I don't think about how you will be in the future, I just hope that you will live a safe and happy life in the future." Calculating that Jia Lan's situation in the Rongguo Mansion is actually more embarrassing than that of Tu Jinghuai, after all, Tu Jinghuai is just the son and grandson However, Jia Lan, with the status of the eldest son and grandson of the second house in Rongguo Mansion, was able to grow up under Jia Baoyu's aura without being raised as the second son. The two Jia Huan, who didn't like to read and practice calligraphy, and Li Wan's teaching of living in a simple life and keeping a low profile really contributed a lot.

You know, Jia Zheng has always paid more attention to the ability of his children and grandchildren to study in the imperial examinations. Even Jia Huan, a concubine who crawled out of the intestines of a slave, won Jia Zheng's favor for a while because of his disappointment with Baoyu, let alone Jia Lan. The only flesh and blood of his eldest son.Just judging from Yuan Chun's understanding of Mrs. Wang, she dared to swear to God, if Mrs. Wang found out that Jia Lan inherited Jia Zhu's talent for reading and made Baoyu even more unpopular with Jia Zheng, then Jia Lan was hers. As her own grandson, she can also raise Jia Lan for the sake of Baoyu's status.
