Dream of the Red Chamber: Rong Dai

The prince of Nan'an sent his troops to the south, and he already had a very favorable opportunity, only Dongying had the opportunity to linger.However, the arrogant soldiers were extravagant, leaving a huge gap behind, and the people from Dongying found a gap to capture Nan'an Wang Shuiyu.

After all, knowing the disparity between the strength of the Celestial Dynasty and that of the Celestial Dynasty, he had no choice but to entertain that Shuiyu, and only let the envoy bring a letter to Beijing, asking for a beautiful woman from the Celestial Dynasty to repair the covenant between the two countries.

The thin drizzle disperses into the curtain with the wind, the bead curtain shakes, the water ripples, and the circles of rippling disperse with the waves.

Xianbaisu flicks the green water with clear waves, and glances at the jumping koi with her light and clear eyes.

"Dai'er, what are you doing here?" A water-melting call came from behind, causing Daiyu to turn her head, and the tassels on her temples followed. Said: "Brother Rong, why are you here?"

Shui Rong nodded her pretty nose helplessly, and wiped away the water stains in her hand little by little with his big hand. After all, he chuckled lightly and sighed, "You."

Daiyu saw that he had never put on the coir raincoat and cloak even in the drizzle, so she gave him an angry look, and stood on tiptoe to share some of the paper umbrella with him.

Seeing Daiyu lifting it hard, Shui Rong smiled, took the paper umbrella and put it in his hand, tilted towards Daiyu, and said: "You can hit it yourself, how can I be so delicate as a big man?"

Daiyu glared at him, and said angrily, "You have a body made of iron. What are you doing here?"

Seeing that the wedding was approaching, those old mothers in the palace said they were teaching, but they all seemed to be training something, Daiyu felt uncomfortable, so she couldn't bear it anymore, she drove the mother out, only saying that she would go out Walking around, he came to the clear water pool.

"I miss you." Shui Rong stared at Daiyu with lowered eyes, and took her little hand to hold the umbrella handle together.

Daiyu's cheeks were flushed immediately by his words, she cast a glance at him, then raised her eyes suddenly and looked at Shui Rong with a sad face.

Shui Rong watched with a smile, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong with Dai'er?"

Daiyu held the jade sash on his body with her little hand, lowered her head and muttered: "Can the queen mother call these annoying nuns back? These days, I come here as if I were the number one lady in the world." It's like training, it's so tiresome. Those rules and etiquette are taught over and over again, as if deliberately tricking people."

Shui Rong paused for a moment when he heard this, and seeing Daiyu's dissatisfied little girl look down, he held up her pink cheeks and smiled softly: "It's not a big deal at all, since you entered the palace and talked to the Queen Mother, it's over." ?”

Daiyu patted his hand away, squinted her eyes lightly to look at him, and said: "If I could see the queen mother and grandmother, do you think I would tell you? I sent someone to hand over the palace sign, but was Then Concubine Li blocked her back. The reasons she found out are all kinds of strange, what do you want me to say?"

"Is there such a thing?" Shui Rong was busy with court affairs these days, but he didn't go to the Empress Dowager's Palace to pay her respects, but let people take a break. Thinking of Concubine Li, Shui Rong couldn't help but feel a little angry.

Those women are definitely the nuns sent by Concubine Li, their faces turned colder and colder, they lowered their eyebrows and thought for a while, they already had an idea, then they smiled and looked at Daiyu, and whispered in their ears A few words made Daiyu smile.

Daiyu clenched her small fists, but she also knew what Concubine Li was thinking. She snorted and said, "Since she thinks that way, we will not let her get what she wants. Let me tell you, why are those old ladies these days Mammy always looks critical, if it wasn't for the empress dowager's grandmother's sake, she would have kicked them out of the princess mansion early." Shui Rong smiled softly, took Daiyu's little hand and walked into the house.

There were a few nuns sitting on the footsteps talking and laughing in the room, which made Chunxian very angry and bored. Seeing Shui Rong and Daiyu approaching, she couldn't feel her eyes light up. Hail the princess."

The nuns in the room panicked when they heard this, hurriedly adjusted their clothes and got up, bowed their knees and said: "This old slave has seen the prince and the princess."

Shui Rong responded lightly, but Dai Yu smiled exquisitely, and her clear voice was like a yellow oriole coming out of the valley, and said: "Mommies, get up."

Shui Rong took Daiyu's little hand and walked up to the front seat and sat down. The nanny couldn't hold back anymore, she looked at Shui Rong and Daiyu's holding hands, and said, "Princess, you are a daughter who has not left the court. Although the prince He is your fiancé-in-law, but he definitely shouldn't let it go like this, if it gets out, he will lose his dignity as a princess and the air of a royal family."

Listening to this, Daiyu spread her hands towards Shui Rong, and retracted her slender hands, her innocent and pretty face filled Shui Rong with affection.

She glared at Daiyu, then took her small hand and held it in the big one. She glanced at the nanny lightly and said, "This king is only here today to see the princess. The princess is my fiancée. What kind of etiquette is there?" Lost? What's more, this is the princess mansion, if there is such a naughty servant who provokes the master, it would not be a pity to throw him into the prison of the Ministry of punishment and kill him."

The nanny who spoke fell silent immediately, Shui Rong didn't dare to offend him, no one in the court knows that the Prince of Beijing Jing has made great contributions in suppressing the rebellion, although the title cannot be promoted, the emperor has rewarded him with great kindness, who dares to underestimate him?

The remaining nuns saw that the leading nuns suffered a lot, so they had no choice but to keep silent, but they didn't see Shui Rong sending them out, so they could only stand there dryly, listening to Shui Rong's concern for Daiyu. words.

Daiyu twisted his waist, her watery eyes were somewhat questioning, but she saw the corners of Shui Rong's mouth curled up, and she looked at Daiyu with her eyes.

"How about the queen mother ordering you to teach the princess gift?"

The nanny in the head was originally the nanny brought into the palace by Concubine Li's side. She has always been favored by Concubine Li and ranks first in the palace. Prince Jing, thanks to the grace of the Empress Dowager, this old slave taught the princess the etiquette in the palace, and now only a small part of the etiquette has not been completed, and the rest is acceptable."

"Shang Ke?" Shui Rong smiled at Daiyu after hearing this, and said, "Dai'er, your etiquette is only Shang Ke?"

Daiyu gave him a hard look, then looked at the nanny with a faint smile and said, "Wouldn't it be better if the nanny said it's okay or not?"

"The old servant is terrified, I can't afford the princess to say that." After all, the mother still winked, seeing that Daiyu seemed to be angry, she hurriedly lowered her head and dared not speak.

Shui Rong looked at the woman with cold eyes, then turned to look at Daiyu with a smile and said, "I don't know if Mammy would mind showing me the etiquette you taught me?"

When the mother heard this, she complained in her heart, but she couldn't shirk it, so she bowed and said: "Since this is the case, this old slave is being rude in front of the prince."

Seeing the etiquette instruction made by the nanny, Shui Rong's eyes overflowed with coldness, and he stood up, looked at the nanny coldly and said: "This is the etiquette you taught the princess? This is the most commonly used etiquette in the palace. .Since that’s the case, why are you pointing fingers again?”

As he said that, he looked coldly at the maid standing by the door, and said coldly: "You can go to the palace and just report everything here to the Queen Mother. This king wants to see who dares to Prevent the princess from entering the palace, and send such a nanny out."

When the nanny heard this, she immediately became terrified, knelt on the ground, and begged for mercy, "I beg your lord to be merciful, these etiquettes are already like this, it's not that the old slave doesn't teach the princess, but there's no way to teach her."

Daiyu listened with a bit of coldness on her face, and looked coldly at the nanny sitting on the seat, and said: "It turns out that you are fooling this princess. Some of the things I have learned in the past, but it turns out that you are such scumbags. Anyway, now I can enter the palace, but I want to ask Concubine Li for an explanation."

The nun's face was confused when she heard this, Concubine Li ordered them to punish Daiyu a little while teaching Daiyu the rules, but who would have thought that Shui Rong would see through it, and let Shui Rong and Daiyu teach her a lesson, An old face suddenly turned green and white.

Hastily crawled forward and kowtowed, clutching the hem of Daiyu's skirt, weeping, "I beg your forgiveness, the old slave is confused, the old slave is confused."

Shui Rong looked at the nanny lightly, and said: "You are an old man in Concubine Li's palace, so you should know some rules. The princess is such a golden branch and jade leaf, how can you be fooled like this? You don't have to stay here anymore, go back In the palace, where did you come from and where do you go back.”

After hearing this, the nanny knew that this was Shui Rong Daiyu's biggest concession, so she hurriedly bowed and kowtowed, and exited the door, leading the shivering and kneeling nuns out of the princess mansion in a swift manner.

Daiyu pursed her lips, with a look of impatience on her face, she glared at Shui Rong, seeing that Shui Rong felt hairy in her heart, she stepped forward and hugged her, and said with a smile: "Dai'er, it's no fault of me, I can't Shut up the mouths of the people of the world, and prevent them from ordering things."

Daiyu really cared about this matter, she stretched out her small hand and pointed at his handsome face, and said coldly: "You are good-looking, powerful, and make people miss you. I am a poor girl, how can I fly to a branch? Occupy the Phoenix Nest?"

The waist tightened suddenly, but seeing the troubled face of Shui Rong, he didn't care too much, just hummed, and then pushed his hand away and said: "Forget it, let me go, you go back to your Beijing Palace Bar."

Hearing these words, Shui Rong tightened his grip on her, and then tightened his grip on her waist, saying: "That's all for talking about, and you won't be allowed to mention it in the future, otherwise, otherwise, me."

"How are you?" Daiyu raised her smoky eyebrows, and there was a hint of stubbornness in her bright eyes. She looked straight into Shui Rong's eyes, saw the pity and love in his eyes, and looked at him confidently. he.

Shui Rong shook his head helplessly, lowered his head and lightly pecked her pink lips, and said: "It's not good, anyway, in a few days, I will be by my side forever and ever, so why should Dai'er do such a thing?" Take it to heart?"

Hearing what he said, Daiyu felt even more disturbed, thinking that she would be living in the Beijing Palace in a few days, she was really depressed.Now that she is not married yet, so many people are thinking about her, how will she be able to pay it back in the future?Isn't it the rich and powerful who let their daughters be stuffed into the Beijing Palace?

"Brother Rong, otherwise we will not get married, it's fine like this." Daiyu suddenly said such a sentence, which made Shui Rong suddenly puzzled, and said: "Why would Dai'er think so?"

Daiyu counted her pale fingers, her brows were filled with melancholy, she raised her head and looked at Shui Rong pitifully, and said, "Since we got married, those imperial concubines in the mansion have sharpened their heads and secretly stalked the Queen Mother." Grandmother and Concubine Li said, I can't count my ten fingers, so it's a pity that I will stay there by then?"

Seeing her like this, Shui Rong laughed and cursed, and reprimanded: "What are you talking about here? You are just some boring people. As long as the mother concubine and I disagree, who can enter our palace?"

Daiyu raised her eyebrows and looked at him, pouted her lips, pushed him away in three big steps, and said, "That's not what you said. Could it be that Concubine Li wouldn't say that the empress dowager's grandmother wouldn't give a side concubine? You said this You're messing with me."

Daiyu knows Shui Rong's mind, and she doesn't hide what she thinks with her exquisite heart, she just follows her thoughts. If they don't get married, then there will be no reason for others to send her side concubine to Beijing Palace ?

Shui Rong sighed secretly, shook his head, put Daiyu in his arms, nodded her head, and scolded with a smile: "I don't know what your little head is thinking all day long? Since I have already agreed, I will naturally For the rest of my life, did it change in just a short while? Dai'er underestimated me too."

Talking about her fiery eyes staring closely at her ignorant eyes, a faint laughter overflowed her thin lips, her narrow and long eyes were like deep valleys, and she said with a low smile: "If you don't get married, how can Dai'er marry me?" Give birth to a little Dai'er?"

Hearing this, Daiyu immediately spat at him, frantically trying to push his wrist away, with a Danxia face and shy eyes, she said angrily, "Who will let you." How did one of her daughters who have not left the court say it?I didn't realize the meaning of stopping to speak again, I just put aside the gnat's head and didn't look at the water melting.

Smiling, he pulled her delicate body around, Shui Rong smiled lowly, and only embraced her and said, "Do you believe Dai'er can trust Brother Rong?"

Feeling that Daiyu in her arms nodded like a chicken pecking rice, Shui Rong nodded in satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, what else is Dai'er worried about?"

Daiyu also knows Shui Rong's mind and behavior, even if she understands, she can't be completely at ease.It's not that I'm worried about anything, I'm just upset, thinking that the life of the family in the future will not be as free as it is now, it's just a bit of bitterness.

Shui Rong hugged her and leaned against his chest, remembering that Sang Qingyan mentioned by Shui Wanyu was also restless now, presumably it was what her aunt said about her pre-marital daughter's thoughts.Worried about the future, worried about life, worried about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, so she let Daiyu talk nonsense with understanding, and maybe it would be better for her if she said it.

Silently for a long time, until the fragrance of peach blossoms came from outside the window, Shui Rong let go of his hands, looked at the peach blossoms flying outside the window, pondered for a moment, hesitated for a while, finally sat down with Daiyu's little hand, and said: "Shui Yu Although the boy won the battle, he was detained, and the Dongying island country wants to marry the daughter of our Celestial Dynasty as a concubine, saying that the covenant between the Celestial Dynasty and Dongying will be eternal."

Daiyu didn't come back to her senses when she heard this, she raised her head blankly and asked, "What?"

Shui Rong gave a small smile, raised his head and looked at the low beams of the swallows outside the window, smiled faintly, and said, "All the swallows have come back in spring. But there are some birds that want to fly out of their nests where they have been staying for a long time and spread their wings. I don't know if they will soar into the sky." An eagle, or a sparrow that is low and hard to become famous."

Daiyu was dazed when she heard that, her heart was agitated, she held her water-soluble hand and said: "You mean, for Dongying to choose a concubine, the emperor is very likely to choose someone from the lower clan or the Duke's mansion?"

Shui Rong looked back and nodded, and said: "The princess of the royal family, the princess of the clan, the emperor and even the prince of the clan must not give up, and they can only choose from the Duke's mansion. First, it will not break the imperial prestige of the heavenly dynasty, and second, it is enough." He has a better family background to match the prince of the Murong royal family in Dongying."

Daiyu was dumbfounded when she heard this, and looked at Shui Rong, thinking about the scene of the Nan'an concubine's visit to Jia's mansion that day, now she felt a little creepy when she thought about it, she was really uneasy, so she hurriedly looked at Shui Rong and said, "Brother Rong, you Do you know who was chosen?"

Shui Rong knew what was going on in her heart, so he quietly embraced her and leaned in his arms, saying: "It was chosen by Concubine Nan'an herself, I don't know whose girl it is." Daiyu felt a little disappointed when she heard this. mind.

Meditate quietly for a moment, thinking that Tanchun has an unassailable bearing.After all, there is some meaning of self-comfort in my heart.He raised his eyes and smiled slightly: "Brother Rong, tell me, if the third sister is singled out, will this be a turning point for the third sister?"

Shui Rong shook his head, smiled faintly, and said: "I don't know the third girl from the Jia family, so I can't tell who she is. If she is really Jiyue, she will have her own destiny. Dai'er needn't worry too much."

Daiyu listened and nodded, looking at the little swallows flying by outside the curtain with misty eyes, a faint smile overflowed her red lips, and whispered softly: "The third younger sister has always admired the eagle soaring high in the sky, She has her own ideas, and she has the tolerance to not give in to men, if so, it might be able to open up a vast world for her to soar."

Shui Rong saw that Daiyu seemed to have an unfounded look on her face, and couldn't help laughing: "What is Dai'er thinking? This is just our speculation, what will happen in the end, we have to wait for Princess Nan'an to confirm it herself, and Qida will just listen."

Daiyu shook her head, although she didn't agree with Shui Rong's words in her heart, she just silently leaned against Shui Rong's chest.She remembered, she remembered that Nan'an Concubine looked at the sisters a little differently, especially Tanchun, if she had to choose, the number one candidate in her heart might be Tanchun who was bright and bright.

Now that the Jia family is in trouble, although Jia Zheng and Jia Amnesty returned to their official positions because of the concubine Yuan's favor, it is still far from reaching the peak of the past. If this opportunity is used to let Tan Chunrong marry the princess far away Overseas, it can't be said that those people think it will be a great thing.

"Old lady, now that Concubine Nan'an chooses the girls and ladies of the Duke's Mansion everywhere, is it because of the capture of Prince Nan'an?"

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng bowed their heads in front of Jia's mother and answered the words. Jia's mother lightly stroked the green tea in the tea cup, put the tea bowl on the Haitang high table with a "clang", and said, "I've heard that too. However, the prince of Nan'an was kidnapped, but it was only for the purpose of Dongying's marriage."

"The old lady is worried?"

Jiamu's eyes suddenly brightened, she looked at Jia Amnesty, and said, "You just restrain your thoughts and return the 5000 taels of silver you sold that second girl to the Sun's family. Just wait for Nan'an The concubine only made a decision after the election, and now the girls in our mansion are precious."
