[Red House] Lixian

"Have you heard? It is said that the royal horses at the racecourse were disturbed yesterday, and Miss Chen's body was broken in the end."

"This horse can actually break someone's body? Could it be on the spot..."

"What are you thinking! After a violent impact, I was hit by the handle of the guard next to me."

"Knife handle? How long is that handle?"

Several court ladies whispered in the palace.

All the daughters of the Chen family had strange expressions on their faces.

Some people were angry, some were secretly happy, but Chen Mengyu gritted his silver teeth secretly after hearing what everyone said. "You still have this hand?"

No matter who did it, this move is enough to completely clear up the fact that Situ Yun had an affair with her.Even if they claimed that the two of them had an affair, no one would believe it under the circumstances.

This was verified by the Imperial Physician and the female doctors of the Shang Medical Bureau, and it was really hit by the handle of the knife.Even if someone questioned it, could they be better than the imperial physician present?

Even if it was just ordinary bleeding, as long as the imperial physicians insisted that it was a loss of chastity, no one else could refute it.

After this incident, as long as Situ Yun avoids her, how can there be any chance of entering the palace?Just find an excuse and throw her out of the palace.

"No, you have to find another way! Since you have sex with me, don't try to get rid of it!" Chen Mengyu's heart is Shi Qinglan, who knows everything about the harem like the back of his hand.If you don't enter the palace, you will be too sorry for the news you have in your hands.

Throwing out these news is enough to cause major changes in the current harem.

Chen Mengyu thought about other paths again, and at the same time Wei Qian summoned Jia Mei into the palace to ask about the news outside.

"There wasn't much reaction from the outside. After all, she was just a little girl in the Chen family, and there were no major casualties. It's fine to say a few words during the chat between the families. Everyone has a clear mind, and it will not affect her marriage in the future."

After Jia Mei finished speaking, she stopped talking.

"What does mother want to say?"

"The empress dowager deliberately summoned the Chen family's daughters into the palace, but wants to marry them?"

"That's what it means. Why, who did mother entrust to take a fancy to?"

"No, it's Ying'er from our family. After calculating the time, it's time to start a family, right?"

"Ying'er? How old is Ying'er? Not even eighteen, what's the rush." ​​Wei Qian shook her head: "What my daughter and His Majesty mean is to wait. His Majesty said that he would personally see Ying'er's marriage. As for Chen family..." Wei Qian did not intend to let the Wei Mansion marry the Chen family.

"We have calculations."

It has to be said that Situ Yun treated Wei Ying well.For Weiying's sake, Wei Qian didn't put down the shady activities in her heart.Otherwise, it is quite feasible to change the master of the country and learn from Shangguan Wan'er to exercise power.

Jia Mei thought about it, her heart suddenly jumped, and after thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be a princess in the palace.

Princess Yihe?

But seeing Wei Qian's expression, Jia Mei didn't ask any further questions.Whether this matter has a spectrum is open to debate.

"By the way, mother, do you know what happened to other palaces in the city?"

"Your Majesty broke out with a few royal children who were having fun during the mourning period. Now the city is terrified. No family dares to act casually."

With Situ Yun attracting attention in the previous court, who would care about his harem?

Wei Qian thought to himself: "In this way, Situ Yun can cover up this matter, and I can also prepare for other things with peace of mind."

"About the Mei University bachelors and their management of agriculture, what progress has been made?"

"What progress can they make? How many people have lost their crops because of their wrong actions? My lord, just wait, this winter, let those peasants who have been cheated go to their scholars' homes to spend the winter. Next year, the Ministry of Agriculture will definitely belong to my lord. "

"Where does this palace dare to intervene in the Ministry of Agriculture? It's just to intervene in agricultural planting temporarily. In the future, this will be my cousin's position."

Jia Lian's current qualifications are not enough, and he is only serving as a servant.But if he can successfully carry out the promotion of new agriculture across the country, the position of Da Si Nong (Shang Shu of the Ministry of Agriculture) will naturally be his in the future.Moreover, in the ranking of the seven departments, the Ministry of Agriculture can come from behind and surpass the Ministry of Industry.Even the Ministry of Agriculture can generate its own income, and the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture are responsible for the taxation of agriculture, which divides the power of the Ministry of Households to a small part.

A few days later, the Empress Dowager Chen issued an order to marry the daughter of the Chen family.Chen Mengyu's incident did not affect the marriage of the Chen family's daughter.And it also fulfilled an old saying: "Flies don't bite seamless eggs." Situ Yun was seduced by Chen Mengyu, and a few days later he interceded with Queen Mother Chen and left Chen Mengyu behind.

But for now, she still goes out of the palace to go home, and enters the palace again after the emperor's filial piety period has passed.

Regarding this, Wei Qian smiled, what effect would it have on her whether she entered the palace or not?

Jia Yuanchun also thought the same way, a mere inferior concubine was not enough to affect her status.What Jia Yuanchun cared more about was Jia Baoyu's marriage.

She wanted to let Chen's daughter marry Jia Baoyu, so that Jia Baoyu could win the future imperial examination with the help of the glory of the empress dowager.

Originally, Weiying was only one year younger than Jia Baoyu, and Jia Baoyu should also take the imperial examination.But last autumn, the weather was extremely cold, and Buddhism and Taoism from all over the world gathered in the capital.Jia Baoyu wanted to stay at home and watch the fun, so he didn't plan to go back to Jinling.

Jia Musi and Jia Baoyu were still young, and she was worried that Jinling would not be acclimatized, so she didn't force him. She planned to let him study for a few more years and come back later.

Jia Yuanchun excitedly came to the Empress Dowager Chen's place to discuss the marriage, and it happened that Wei Qian was also there.

Wei Qian also talked about Jia Baoyu's marriage.

"I heard from my grandmother back then that she intended to let Baoyu and Daiyu be together?" Wei Qian smiled and peeled an apple for the queen mother: "Why don't you take this opportunity and ask the queen mother to marry you? You will be more honorable than a concubine."

"For your sake, why don't you let the emperor step in?" Empress Dowager Chen pointed at Wei Qian and scolded with a smile, "Why, is it possible that you feel sorry for the emperor and are afraid of causing him trouble?"

"The concubine is worried about His Majesty's troubles. Doesn't the Empress Dowager feel sorry for Your Majesty?" Wei Qian and Empress Dowager Chen were joking, and Jia Yuanchun happened to hear it when he came in.

His expression changed. After all, he had a top-notch skill in nourishing Qi. Jia Yuanchun sat beside him with a smile.

Empress Dowager Chen thought for a while: "Which one of you will turn around and ask the old lady of Jia's mansion, if she wants to let her grandson and granddaughter be together, the Ai family has no objection."

Jia Yuanchun opened his mouth, but did not speak in the end.

"It's your Wei family, what are you going to do with your brother's marriage?"

"Weiying is so young, and he intends to go to the frontier to serve as a soldier. We will talk about everything when he comes back. If something happens, don't delay his daughter."

"Look at what you said." Empress Dowager Chen was a little displeased, and said to Jia Yuanchun: "Listen, how could this be said by a sister? You don't want to help your family carry on the family line, but you still cursed your younger brother."

"My younger sister has always been soft-hearted. This is also because she is worried that other people's daughters will have a bad life in the future."

Wei Qian said, "It's just a possibility. And if he returns from the army, his title and official status will definitely be mentioned again. Wouldn't it be better to marry by then? Since ancient times, a beauty deserves a hero, so let him sharpen it."

Seeing Wei Qian's resolute attitude, the Empress Dowager Chen temporarily stopped thinking about marrying the daughter of the Chen family into the Wei Mansion.What Wei Qian said is correct, if something bad happens on the battlefield, won't her daughter be a widow in the future?

It's a pity that the Jia and Wei families are obviously prosperous, but there is no suitable candidate to marry them.

Otherwise, the three families will be one, the harem will be peaceful, and the harem will be stable.

Empress Dowager Chen looked at the second concubine with a gentle expression. She was very satisfied with the current situation in the palace.The two concubines check and balance but also form an alliance to ensure the general tranquility of the harem.In the future, a daughter from their Chen family will be a concubine, and she will be relieved to be a three-legged rival.

After all, the prince is a prince. In order to ensure the safety of the prince, I am afraid that Situ Yun will not make another queen.So the concubine is already the limit.

Not long after, the Empress Dowager Chen and the second concubine selected other husbands of the Chen family daughters.

Jia Yuanchun and Wei Qian walked out of Ningshou Palace.

"Sister, the marriage of a man and a woman still depends on the wishes of the parties involved. Now everyone in Jia's mansion thinks that Daiyu can marry into Jia's mansion, even my uncle thinks so. When my uncle promotes my cousin, why is my sister still dissatisfied?"

At this time, Lin Ruhai was not dead yet.Moreover, he has entered the court as an official and is in charge of the Ministry of Industry.

And Huang Yuan, the governor, also entered the court and took charge of the official department.

Wei Qian's meddling in the government these days hasn't aroused everyone's backlash, and a large part of the reason is her connections.

Because of Feng Youmeng's incident, Lin Ruhai felt ashamed of Wei Qian, and with the relationship between Wei Qian and Lin Daiyu, she was on Wei Qian's side.

Huang Yuan was Wei Qian's adoptive father, so he naturally stood by her side.

There is also the support of Jia's and Wei's houses, so she is a little bit out of line.Although some senior ministers objected, it generally did not arouse any resentment.On the contrary, the young men of the new school praised the empress's actions.

They thought that this empress and His Majesty played the piano and harp harmoniously, and they had the ceremonies of the middle palace.

Anyway, she is not a demon concubine, and she has a good reputation outside, so everyone acquiesced.As long as Wei Qian doesn't pierce that layer of window paper, everyone will happily pretend not to know.

Jia Yuanchun frowned and said nothing, she had no ill feeling towards Lin Daiyu.The biggest point is that Lin Daiyu is Jia Min's daughter.

Jia Min...

At least her affection for Jia Min is not as good as that with her own mother.Mother hates Jia Min, and she doesn't want Lin Daiyu to enter the mansion either.In the future, how will mother and Lin Daiyu get along for the rest of their lives?

"Speaking of which, my sister is about to give birth, right? The better the future of this little prince's uncle, the better it will be for him."

Jia Yuanchun's expression suddenly changed, he was thoughtful.

"Yeah, so what if you win over the Chen family? If the concubine of the Chen family gives birth to her own child, who will the empress dowager support at that time? On the other hand, if Lin Daiyu marries her younger brother, the younger brother can not only use the contacts of the Lin mansion, but also win over the Lin mansion to help her." In the future, the emperor will pave the way."

"As for my mother, it's a big deal to find some concubines for Baoyu later. And if it's for my family's future, the help of the Lin family is indispensable."

Jia Yuanchun weighed the pros and cons, calculating the little prince's future backer, with a smile on his face: "It's true that my sister is thinking badly, or my sister is smart. Now that my sister is in power, our mother and son still have to trouble her to take care of her. There will be a big reward in the future."

What kind of newspaper?If you are the queen mother, give me a queen mother too?

Wei Qian dealt with it casually, and when the Empress Dowager issued an order to grant the marriage the next day, she sent her congratulatory gift to Jia's mansion by the way.

Lin Daiyu was surprised and delighted when Wei Qian gave her a pair of mandarin duck pillows, which was another incident.
