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

Chapter 99

Compared with the mourning after death in Yuanchun's dream, the funeral ceremony after the death of Concubine Zhen's illness this time undoubtedly seemed much more ordinary.Although the Supreme Emperor would not do such a thing as depriving Zhen's status, there is absolutely no honor of ordering a wife to cry for a funeral. The scene was not too small, but it was nothing special compared to any other concubines.

As for the one-year national funeral in the dream, there is no shadow of it. Except for the one-year mother's funeral of the King of Anshun County, if the rest of the people are caring people, they can be regarded as respect if they can keep the first seven days. Apart from Zhen's party, it is not considered a crime to be able to go online.

Reminiscent of Jia Lian's filial piety marriage in the dream, this difference made Yuan Chun secretly heave a sigh of relief.

You know, in the dream of the two sins of filial piety in the country and family, Jia Zhen's funeral date originated from her father's funeral. This is something that Yuanchun cannot change, so that's all.Although Jia Lian's side can be regarded as Jia Jing's younger generation, after all, the two families are only of the same clan, and the blood relationship is already far away. It's just that they are taboo in their hearts not to marry and do red things during the day, even if they don't keep this filial piety. There is nothing wrong with that.

If there is no such emphasis on national filial piety, even if there are some crimes, they are nothing more than trivial matters.

But here in the palace, since the Zhen family is gone, the Supreme Emperor himself ordered people to do it. The so-called tree falls and the monkeys are scattered, many people under her who are not loyal enough have been killed one after another for various reasons. Sell ​​some of what she did.

It's impossible to tell about the more distant events, and probably not many people know about them, but what she did to Yuanchun recently is obviously not a confidential matter, and it was soon dug out by interested people.

What followed was the news that the Zhen family and the Jia family had basically turned their backs.

Although Jia's mother was suppressed by her seniority, but because of Yuan Chun's rise in status, it is obvious that Mrs. Wang's status has also risen.Yuan Chun is now in his 30s, and he has already passed the golden age of childbearing. Even if everything goes well, it is not easy to conceive and have children, and after being touched by Zhen Taigui, the hope is obviously even slimmer.

Although it is still not completely impossible to have children if he takes good care of him, but at Yuan Chun's current age, after a year or two of recuperation, it is estimated that he will reach the age where he will be completely infertile.

Suddenly losing hope for the future, it's no wonder that the Jia family turned against the Zhen family.

But regarding this point, Yuan Chun himself was obviously very happy in his heart-although this happiness could not be shared with anyone.

For the concubines in the harem, the loss of hope of childbearing is undoubtedly the biggest blow, but Yuan Chun has long believed that there is no hope of childbearing, so naturally he doesn't think it's worthwhile to exchange this as a condition for some other benefits.

Although Yuan Chun didn't show it before, it has to be said that the Zhen family is indeed a thorn in Yuan Chun's heart - the crimes in his family's surface in the dream are nothing more than the crimes on the surface, but in fact the most serious crimes are mostly It's all related to the Zhen family.

——Even in the apparent crime, it was not sent by the Zhen family to accept the property of the criminal official, even if Jia Lian's marriage to the second sister You hadn't caught up with Zhen Taigui's national filial piety, it would not have been messed up so serious.

Of course, the most important reason for the Jia family to be purged by Tu Mingxuan was to participate in the seizure of the heir - the Zhen family and the Jia family had always been close, and they were inevitably dragged into the bandit boat.

Even Yuan Chun was not hesitant to intervene in this, mainly to prevent the Jia family from jumping over the wall in a hurry or having any bad thoughts-you know, Yuan Chun still has the son of a deposed prince under his knees.

"Prince Yizhong is still young. Even the Supreme Emperor only wants to make him a rich and idle person. He is very willing to let the prince learn something to cultivate his sentiments on weekdays. There is no hope. So instead of pointing at this kind of rebellious master It's a sin, it's better to focus on the future. I probably don't have much hope, but fortunately, I still have a prince, my status is not low, and I have some influence in the palace, life will not be sad. "Because of the funeral of Concubine Zhen, all the wives had to enter the palace to accompany the sacrifice, which also gave Yuan Chun the opportunity to meet his family.

Wang Xifeng's family still has a young son, it is not convenient to enter the palace to accompany the sacrifice, and Youshi can't let no one in Ningguo Mansion, so they simply reported maternity leave, and the superiors turned a blind eye to let him go. Therefore, only Mrs. Jia Mu Wang and Li Wan were the only ones who could see Yuan Chun in the palace this time.

Therefore, Yuanchun can easily speak out.

"In this palace, there have always been only people with high ranks, but there is rarely a saying that they will drop their ranks at will. It is not a problem for the left and right to protect Baoyu with my position now. Brother Lang is studying with the prince. In the future, there will always be someone The future. Baoyu is now at the age of marriage, and when the nephews and nieces grow up in the future, no matter how you want to match people, the Holy Majesty will always take care of my friendship over the years and give me some face." Yuan Chun said that I can't say how cryptic it is, but basically put the words on the bright side, "you know, the third girl has a brother from the same mother after all, and the fourth girl has a distant blood relationship, so it's not appropriate. It's better to point to the future."

Mrs. Wang and Li Wan were just that, one cared about it and the other didn't know much about the palace. Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up after hearing Yuan Chun's clear instructions.But Li Wan was always cold-hearted, he didn't give birth to a girl by himself, and this matter had nothing to do with Lan'er, so he just listened with his face down because it had nothing to do with him.

On the contrary, Jia's mother is old and refined, and after all, she is the wife of a super-pin country who often entered the palace when she was young. She understands the truth that even a stone in this palace can speak better than her daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law. Yuan Chun winks.

On the contrary, Yuan Chun didn't take this matter seriously, he had already said the left and right words, but he didn't stop, and followed Jia's mother's intention to break the topic.

Firstly, if you really look into it carefully, it doesn't really matter what you said, and secondly, it was Yuan Chun who really said this in front of Tu Mingxuan, clearly and plainly.

After all, no one in this world knows better than Yuan Chun how unreliable his natal family is.

"Although all goodness and filial piety are the first, but to put it cold-heartedly, no one knows what the concubine's family is like better than the concubine. The uncle is a complete dude, rich and idle, and probably only knows how to do nothing. The concubine's father is pedantic. I'm used to it, although I've always been respectful and diligent, but I probably don't have the ability. It's a grace to be an official at the top of the fourth rank. The male in the family is not good enough, so you can not only rely on the female relatives to get ahead, the concubine is the first girl in this life When I was four or five years old, I began to think about sending my concubine into the palace. Although I wasted many years, I finally made the other end come true." Yuan Chun had already made the concubine ruthless by virtue of being drugged. After being drunk for a while, he looked at Tu Mingjun who rushed over with a drunken look and a misty and gentle smile.

"When this family sent their daughter to the palace, they didn't think about the beautiful flowers in the palace. They always wished to forget the possible danger and suffering." It would be inappropriate for other concubines to say this, but Yuan Chun wasted ten years. A few years ago, being a female official in the palace as the granddaughter of the Rongguo Mansion was not in vain to bear the four words of danger and suffering, "But this is not a bad thing. If it was ten years ago, maybe the concubine would not be able to hear it." Ziruan listened to the so-called saying that one is prosperous, one is prosperous and the other is bad, and he is wholeheartedly seeking wealth and fame for the Jia family, it would be better to see through it now and become cold-hearted."

Although the reason is hard to say, none of the masters in the palace knew that Yuan Chun had been murdered, and Yuan Chun Sulai was quite rich, so it was not difficult to get some good wine from the imperial dining room.

Although he also drank from a small wine cup, Yuan Chun used the wine to relieve his worries all night. When Tu Mingxun got the news, Yuan Chun seemed to have already drunk a small pot of wine.

It is often said that people tell the truth after drinking, and there are some things that Yuan Chun would never say when he was awake, so he simply took this opportunity to spit them out all at once.

"The Holy Majesty should also know that what family wants to send a girl into the palace is Conglong Zhigong. At least there must be a grandson of his own family, so that he can feel at ease. The concubine is like this now, I think it’s not long before I come to the house and I have to think about sending another girl in. But why should I be stepped on and climb up.” Although people often say that married daughters splash water, there is no family that can reconcile with her. Grandchildren and nephews are like a family.However, there are obviously some exceptions in this imperial palace, after all, most of the women here are close to their natal families all their lives, and even their children are closely connected with their concubines' natal families.

Among other things, there are indeed many sisters in the Taishang Palace, which is really nothing in the eyes of the aristocratic family. It is even said that if Yuan Chun hadn't really been cold-hearted towards the Rongguo Mansion, even if she felt a little sad in her heart, she would have He will plan to let the Rongguo Mansion send another girl into the palace.

"So, the concubine has to let the family marry off all the younger sisters." Yuan Chun didn't wait for Tu Mingjun to show anything, so he said everything on his own, "The first few girls in the family Speaking of closeness is not bad, a concubine with the same father, a cousin from the next house who was neglected by the family since childhood and raised by her grandmother, and a cousin who lost her father and mother, if the concubine's family really wants to let people enter the palace , are all good candidates. So if you marry him off early and find a marriage for your younger brother, it is considered as repaying your favor."

Although Yuan Chun consciously put on a candid look in front of Tu Mingjun, he did not position his image on innocence, so it was not too abrupt to show his scheming this time. He showed to Tu Mingjun that he and the Rongguo Mansion were not in the same mind.

"It's also strange. Since the uncles and grandfathers of the Jia family, all the men except for the elder brother of the concubine are not successful, but the girls, whether they are a few aunts or a few sisters, are still pretty. It's not very long, so now the concubine only needs to bring out the words a little bit, give the family some hope for the future, and then wait until all the sisters in the family are married off, no matter how thoughtful the family is, they have to wait for ten years After that, it's hard to say whether the concubine is still alive or not, after all, it has nothing to do with the concubine." Yuan Chun's expression was not as gentle as usual, but with a sense of sadness and indifference. The two marriages that have already been married are not bad. The younger sister of the Xue family married a new Jinshi, who is also an official. The second younger sister married the adopted son of the palace. It sounds dignified, but she is incapable of helping others. That would be great."

Although Tu Mingxun loved Yuan Chun, he wanted to take advantage of him, but at that moment, watching Yuan Chun half-drunk and talking, he calmed down rarely.

Although he is still young, since he lives in the palace, what he has seen the most is the scheming and methods of fighting for favor of the women in the palace.Although some people will spare no effort to recommend their natal family members to serve in the court, but there are also some people who deliberately pretend to be impartial.

It is rare for someone like Yuan Chun who does not conceal the shortcomings of her natal family at all but also shows that she always has to protect her natal family without any concealment, and it also shows her frankness and truthfulness more realistically.

As the saying goes, a married daughter throws water away, but the women in this palace have to be closely connected with their natal families all their lives-in other words, if the Jia family is really accused, no matter how favored Yuan Chun is, it is impossible for her to be married again. The identity of the daughter of the guilty minister continued to be the lord of the first house.

So Yuanchun is so real, even if she is really selfish.

This is also the reason why Yuanchun can have no taboos in front of Jia's family at this moment.
