[Red House] Lixian

Aunt Liu is petty, and Wei Qian was afraid that she would teach Wei Ling badly, so she wanted to take Wei Ling with her to teach.As a result, Aunt Liu pissed off on the spot, saying that Wei Qian looked down on her half of the elders.Wei Qian has a thin face, seeing that the old lady was disturbed at the end, she was too lazy to take care of it because she was afraid of something happening.In the past few years, Wei Ling followed Aunt Liu and learned some tricks.

The mother and daughter stood in the corner and eavesdropped on the people inside.

Wei Qian frowned, suggesting to Jia Mei that the mother and daughter left temporarily under the pretext of looking at the garden.Mrs. Wei called Wei Ying to let Jia Lian and Wei Ying get close.

Ruiming Palace is a rebuilt palace, and the back yard is bigger than Jia's.The mother and daughter were walking in the garden, Wei Qian said: "Mother, my daughter caused the whole family to go to Beijing this time, so I apologize to you."

"Family, it doesn't matter, but if I have some questions, I will ask directly!" Jia Mei said with a serious face: "When I came with your grandmother, the Empress Dowager also hinted at something, and the two of us rushed to bring the whole family over. Just for the sake of fact. Why, you don't want to marry?"

"It's all over now, and it's okay not to marry now." Wei Qian sighed softly, isn't it because she doesn't want to marry? It's good to have too much, but it's not like you can't support yourself?

"I think His Majesty treats you well. We helped him a lot back then, and you owe him a lot of credit for his accession to the throne. Even if he enters the palace, would he dare to bully you?" Jia Mei raised her eyebrows: "Your Majesty has such a good temper. Is it better than your previous two fiances?"

"That's right." Seeing Jia Mei's expression, Wei Qian knew what her mother's plan was.Flying on a branch and becoming a phoenix, this is the ideal of women in this era!

"According to my daughter's method, even the queen can do it!"

Wei Qian quickly looked around: "Mother, don't say such nonsense."

"Of course I know that you won't talk nonsense in front of outsiders. But in terms of background and status, you are no worse than the one in the palace?" Jia Mei looked disdainful, which is also the thinking of most noble ladies nowadays.

Today's queen status is really not noble, and many imperial wives look down on this queen who came from a small family.If it wasn't for Situ Yun's luck to ascend the throne, what would happen to her?So each family is secretly preparing to send people into the palace. If they can be a descendant, what kind of style will it be?

"After all, this is the empress, and she will make a living under her hands in the future." Wei Qian smiled wryly: "By the way, when my mother comes to Beijing this time, although she is now living in Ruiming Palace, she must not live here permanently."

"Well, your grandmother and I think so too. When we first came here, we were planning to look at the house in the city. We will live in the capital in the future, so it can be your natal family." Thinking of this, Jia Mei smiled: " Did Your Majesty ever tell you, what position do you want to give you? According to the ceremony of a side concubine, no matter how bad you are, you should be the lord of the first palace, right?"

"It must be one of the nine concubines? After all, there is a marriage contract ahead, and..." And she cheated Situ Yun back then, no matter what Situ Yun would give her a high position.

"That's enough. As long as it's not the nobleman Baolin, you can marry into the palace in a dignified manner. The dowry that my wife and I bought for you will be shipped from Jinling tomorrow, and you must marry in a splendid manner!"

"Don't look at the many nobles in the palace. When we got married, how many bright matchmakers were married? My daughter's days of happiness are still to come!" Jia Mei was happy in her heart, and Wei Qian secretly thought that something was wrong: According to her mother's thoughts, I'm afraid there will be more marriages in the future. I'm really going to hang the line of the palace.This is not a good idea.

Wei Qian made some calculations and said, "If I enter the palace, I will definitely not intervene in Ying'er's official career in the inner palace."

In this era, the family is one, and the family comes first before the country.Jia Mei was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly said, "Are you afraid that Ying'er will not work hard in your name? Don't worry, your grandmother and I will watch over here, he won't be able to make trouble."

"I'm not worried about that." Wei Qian invited Jia Mei to a gazebo.Looking around, he said in a low voice: "Emperors have been so ruthless since ancient times. My mother sees that he treats me well today, but if my Wei Mansion is involved in something in the future, what do you think he will do?"

"This..." Jia Mei was skeptical: "It can't be. As long as His Majesty cherishes the feathers, he won't be too cruel to our family. After all, we helped him so much back then."

"Mother believes in the integrity of an emperor?" Wei Qian said disdainfully: "Which emperor can be trusted throughout the ages? Han Wu killed his son, and Tang Emperor killed his brother. The wiser the emperor, the more unreliable he is. Today, I used astrology to observe Its fate is that it brings evil spirits, but it is too expensive, and the star master must be in the future, and there will be killings that will move the world."

"This kind of emperor is really unreliable. With my daughter's mind, I have to make early plans now."

Being intimidated by Wei Qian like this, Jia Mei felt a little uneasy, yes, how many emperors throughout the ages were kind and generous?That is, the emperor is reliable, but what about the next heir?

"Daughter means, give birth to a son, we will take charge of the country by ourselves?"

"Most concubines and concubines' families have this plan, which is why they are even more tabooed by the emperor. How can I, Wei Qian, act like ordinary people? I still don't like this Situ Jiangshan!" Wei Qian smiled mysteriously: "Why does mother only value her?" China, beyond China, is so vast, wouldn’t it be wonderful for us to establish our own country in Nanyang?”

At first, Jia Mei was a bit horrified, but after hearing what happened later, she said disapprovingly, "How can the Nanyang Islands compare to the prosperity of China? What are you going to do in those remote places?"

"It's for refuge. If the emperor wants to destroy our whole family of Weifu in the future, he can leave a legacy and go overseas to take refuge temporarily." Wei Qian took Jia Mei's hand, which was also old and wrinkled: "And mother, don't underestimate overseas. Our family's business relies on Nanyang. Don't you know that Nanyang is rich in products?"

Jia Mei is a sensible person, but the royal power is supreme in this era, and she is afraid of the royal family.But he is not a pedantic person, and he has not yet reached the point where "the ruler must die and the minister must die".

"Although overseas products are good, I also know that the living customs in the mainland and overseas must be different. Oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, where do you come from?"

"Walking overseas, you can establish a country by occupying any island. And..." bowing her head in Jia Mei's ear, she said, "It is said that there is a vast continent in the south of Nanyang. Its territory is roughly half the size of China. Think about it, how much is that?" A county? If we can establish our Wei family’s kingdom there. Even if our generation can’t complete it, it will be passed on from generation to generation, and one day we won’t have to look at the faces of outsiders. What kind of achievement is this? Expanding the territory and spreading it overseas One branch in Huaxia, it is rare to have a name left in history."

Wei Qian bragged about the territory that she hadn't found yet, Jia Mei moved a little, Wei Qian continued her efforts: "And my daughter built a midway island with Tao Ping in the sea, for the purpose of serving as a transit point, so that people from Shenzhou Delivery of goods. Oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar can be temporarily transported from Shenzhou, and when there are more people, they can make their own."

Wei Qian told the whole story about Midway Island, Jia Mei felt awe-inspiring, "How long have you been preparing for this?"

"It's been several years." Wei Qian said: "Junzi Zhize was killed in the fifth generation. How long do you think our Wei family can survive today? Within three generations, there will be no one from our Wei family in the ruling and opposition parties. It’s better to fight for a happy life overseas.”

"Especially my younger brother is still young. My mother is not too old. Even if she goes to live in Midway Island now, no one can object to her own title of queen, right? The mountain is high and the emperor is far away. Could it be that His Majesty is really sending troops overseas for a tiny place? ?”

Jia Mei's heart felt hot, and she was persuaded by Wei Qian.Wei Qian simply explained what happened in recent years, and asked Jia Mei to go back and help with the management.After all, she wants to enter the palace to learn the experience of managing the dynasty, and it is difficult to be distracted to the other side, so she needs someone close to see what is going on in Peng Sangguo.

After the mother and daughter made up their minds, Wei Qian moved to Ruiming Palace that night.

When Situ Yun and Wei Qian got engaged, they cleaned up a yard in the palace for Wei Qian.Now it has been converted into a palace, and the courtyard has been upgraded to a side hall - Yuhe Hall.

It was expedient for Wei Qian to live in Jia's mansion. Now that the whole family is here, they naturally follow their own.In the afternoon, I bid farewell to Jia Mu, Jia She and others, and moved to Ruiming Palace that night.

In a few days, the Weifu mansion was repaired and moved from Ruiming Palace to his own mansion again.Jia Mei took the opportunity to return to Jinling, and began to take over Wei Qian's Midway Island on the pretext of helping prepare the dowry.

……

The Weifu bought the house of an official who committed a crime not long ago, and remodeled it for his family to live in.

Wei Qian got up early in the morning to decorate and organize with Mrs. Wei.

Mrs. Wei was dressed brightly, and with a red face, she directed the servants to put on the various utensils brought over from Jinling: "I will also entertain the wives and old friends of various families when I turn around. You should move quickly, and don't embarrass the old man!"

Aunt He was tidying up the warehouse at the back. Seeing no one around, Wei Qian asked Mrs. Wei in a low voice, "Grandmother, my grandmother's name is not right after all, and she can still be used in the name of guarding the spirit in Jinling. Now you will her If we take it to Chang'an, what should we do if Jia's mansion comes to beg people?"

"Why, are you worried about that person in Jia's mansion?"

Wei Qian lives in Jia's mansion. Although it can't be said that it's bad, it takes a lot of energy to deal with Jia's mother: "That old lady is my grandmother after all, and the principles of the law are there, how can I dare to refuse? No, the one I refined back then Didn't you give her a few pills too? She insisted on one thing in Jia's mansion, and my uncle would give her some money."

"Then Mrs. Jia is nothing more than relying on her own status to rely on her elders to sell her elders." Mrs. Wei leaned on a cane and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will teach this to your grandmother. She is old, so your grandmother is a generation shorter than her If she dares to make trouble, only your grandmother can handle it. Your grandmother and I had many old relatives in Chang'an back then, and now it's time to exercise and fight this old woman to see if she dares to bully my granddaughter."

Wei Qian's progress to this day is enough to win the Wei Mansion. The old lady is satisfied with her granddaughter, and she is not willing to let her granddaughter go to the Jia Mansion.

"Your uncle is kind to you mother and daughter. It's good for you to maintain this relationship. But don't pay attention to the old lady's thoughts. I will be responsible for everything." The old lady patted her chest, and Wei Qian was dubious.

"Let's clean up the house today, and tomorrow I'll have someone prepare presents to visit each family. After all, Jia's family is relatives, so just add an extra gift."

After all, the old lady has been doing housework for so many years. After Jia Mei came to Jinling, she walked around the city on crutches for a few days. Not long after, there were many more sedan chairs at the gate of the Weifu, and some ladies came to visit from time to time.

In this way, after the New Year's Eve, in the second year, that is, the first year of Shunde, the harem was sealed off after Situ Yun's year.In addition to Jia Yuanchun being promoted to the concubine De, and bestowing the title "Xian", the position of nine concubines also filled three places.

But regarding Wei Qian's status, there was no deep taboo in the palace from the beginning to the end, and there was no mention of it at all.

Mrs. Wei frowned when she heard the news outside, "This is not right. Logically speaking, you should prepare your position first, and then buy you a dowry and a wedding team. What does it mean that the palace is silent now?" ? You have often entered the palace during this time, what is the attitude of the two majesties and ladies in the palace?"

"It's not good, it's not bad. During this period of time, I only saw the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager, but His Majesty didn't have the chance to see her." Wei Qian also muttered, Situ Yun never met her, how could they collude?You know, there is still a palace inspection before entering the palace.She called herself a stone girl, but don't worry about her health, but why is there no news from Situ Yun?

"Tomorrow happens to be my entry into the palace, so I'll ask when the time comes?" Wei Qian was a little anxious, if this didn't work out, both herself and Situ Yun would suffer.
