The Housekeeper's Daughter-in-law of the Red House

After Jin Wenxiang and Heping'er's marriage were finished, after a while, it was the time for the concubine to visit relatives during the Lantern Festival.

Naturally, this has nothing to do with Shulan's family, no matter it's a fun to kill time after dinner, there is still a need to gossip.This time, apart from those low-ranking concubines, only the queen and Xue Cairen had not checked their relatives.

The queen declined by herself, saying that she would host the Lantern Festival in the harem.And Xue Cairen did not have time to build a family-friendly villa because of the short time in the palace, and she was pregnant again and couldn't make troubles, but the queen was very kind and virtuous and allowed Mrs. Xue's family to visit Xue Cairen in the palace on the Lantern Festival.

The topic of mother-in-law's visitation immediately climbed to the headlines of the gossip in the capital. Naturally, no one dared to underestimate the mother-in-law who had given birth to her, and no one dared to underestimate the two who hadn't.

But when it comes to Xue Baochai, I have to talk about Jia Yingchun, who is the same age as Xue Baochai. Her aunt did not change and she was raised as a aunt. Jia Yingchun's fate has changed drastically.

Wasn't Jia Yingchun engaged before, her fiancé is the eldest son of Qi Qinghou's eldest son, but Jia Yingchun is only 13 years old this year, so there is no need to rush to marry him.Jia Yingchun was young, but Qi Lei, the eldest son of Qi Qinghou's eldest son, was different, he was already sixteen.

In ancient times, it was okay for a man to get married at 89 or [-]. Anyway, if the marriage is engaged, the wife cannot escape.However, the sons and sisters of high-ranking families all have a problem that modern people think is unacceptable, that is, they like red/sleeves/addition/fragrance, especially the maids who serve around them are candidates for the maids and aunts.

Although Qi Lei is the eldest son, he is a concubine, and the two leading wives don't feel very good about him, so he inevitably grows up as a playboy. Although he is not as stupid as Jia Zhen, Jia Rong and Xue Pan in the original book, he is playful. There are still a few women.

It will take at least two years for Jia Yingchun to marry in, Qi Lei naturally cannot guard her body like a jade, and besides there is a maid who has passed through the house, so naturally she can sleep without any pressure.

Both Qi Lei and Mrs. Qi Qing Hou Ji were still a little sensible, and would force them to drink medicine when they were asleep, but they didn't expect that the big-hearted maid secretly poured it and didn't drink it, and it turned out that she was pregnant a few months later.

This matter was a romantic affair, but it immediately became popular in the capital. This was mainly because there was no news after the concubine visited her relatives, and everyone desperately needed a new news to kill gossip.

Those who dared to commit crimes would naturally have no good end, Mrs. Qi Qinghou didn't even notify Qi Lei and directly drugged the maid and locked her in a village in the outskirts of the city.After that, she immediately went to Rongguo Mansion to explain to Mrs. Zhang, and also made a guarantee that Jia Yingchun would have no children for three years after she married and then allow her aunt and concubine to become pregnant.

The Qi family suddenly became the focus of the capital, but because Mrs. Qi Qing Hou Ji's actions were quick, it did not cause much trouble. Otherwise, I don't know how long others would laugh about this matter in secret.

Shulan just listened to a piece of gossip about this matter, and couldn't help but purse her mouth after hearing it. Apart from not having to worry about her life, Jia Yingchun's marriage in this life is not much stronger. A maid can secretly hide it when she is pregnant. In the past few months, the rules of Qi Qinghou's mansion are not very good.

But soon Shulan didn't have any gossip anymore, because Chen was pregnant again. Now she only has one daughter, and being pregnant again is a great joy for her and the Lin family.

The Chen family attached great importance to Shulan's birth. In order to make her feel at ease and not let her take care of the housekeeper, after hearing the news, Concubine De in the palace hurriedly sent people out of the palace to bring many congratulatory gifts and supplements. Let the confidant pass the word to Chen: Don't worry about anything now, the real thing is to give birth to a big fat boy for the husband's family.

Just when Shulan was busy taking care of the pregnant woman, the pregnant woman in the palace finally came to fruition, and finally gave birth to a fat boy after a whole day of tossing.

All the concubines stared at the child in the emperor's arms with envy and hatred. This is the emperor's eldest son!And he is the only child of the emperor now.Just when the high-ranking concubines were eager to move, the emperor opened his mouth and said, "Reward!" They don't care about those things, what they care about is that the emperor promoted Xue Cairen to Xue Jieyu, and Jieyu can do it according to the rules of the palace. Raise your own children.

This... This... Doesn't this make their wishful thinking impossible!

All of a sudden, the faces of these concubines turned darker, but it was the virtuous concubine Jia Yuanchun and the empress who had already thought about it.

The emperor asked Xue Jieyu to raise the eldest son by himself. Is this because he loves Xue Jieyu, or he does not want the eldest son to fall into the hands of others. After all, it is undoubtedly much easier for the Xue family to take care of than other rich families.

The fact that Xue Baochai gave birth to the emperor's eldest son is of course a contribution to the country, and Xue Pan's drizzle, which was already tricky, just passed away, and no one brought it up without looking.Not only was Xue Pan sent home, but Wang Ziteng was also reinstated.

At first glance, the Xue family and the Jia family have benefited from this matter, and the Wang family has not suffered a loss, but after all, cracks have appeared in the hearts of several families, and they don't know when the cracks will expand to the point where they cannot be rescued.

When Xue Pan was released from prison, one matter was put on the agenda, that is, the matter of marriage. He is already 15 years old this year, and his sister's children are all born.He was in prison before, and everyone was watching Xue Baochai give birth to a boy or a girl. No one thought about it. Now that Xue Baochai gave birth to the emperor's eldest son and was promoted to Jieyu, in the eyes of many people, he already has a lot of respect. portion.

All of a sudden, Xue Pan, a playboy, became very popular.

Even Mrs. Wang stepped in. The candidate she recommended was none other than Xue Pan's seven-year-old Jia Tanchun children's shoes.When Mrs. Wang said this, Aunt Xue almost couldn't help spit on Mrs. Wang's face.Not to mention that in ancient times, there were many old couples and young wives in modern times, but it was basically the woman who was greedy for the man's money and power. In the kind of true marriage, the age difference between men and women is generally no more than five years.

Jia Tanchun is not only seven years younger than Xue Pan, but also a concubine, not to mention nothing about the past, even if there is something about the past, Aunt Xue would not agree.

After rejecting Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue was afraid that Mrs. Wang would use tricks to accomplish this. Fortunately, Xue Pan became much more honest after being locked up in the cell for a few months. Lived a lot of sugar-coated shells.Later, there were too many people who wanted to get married, so Aunt Xue let someone secretly say that Xue Pan's marriage was decided by the empress in the palace, and she dared not decide.

The matter of the Xue family has not yet come to an end, and the news came out again from the Lin family, saying that Lin Ruhai had resigned from office, which immediately caused an uproar in the officialdom.That little matter of Xue Pan was immediately forgotten by everyone!

Lin Ruhai was an ex-scientist, and later moved to be a doctor of Lantai Temple. Later, he was handpicked by the Supreme Emperor to be the censor of Yangzhou Salt Inspection, and he worked for several years.The richness of Yangzhou salt merchants is well-known throughout the world. The Yanyan Yushi is the official in charge of salt affairs. Whether the salt merchants can make money depends on the Xunyan Yushi. This is an important position with both real power and wealth.

Therefore, there are many people staring at this position. Before the Zhen family was finished, they were also staring at this position, but Lin Ruhai was too much valued by the emperor, and they had already controlled the three major weavings in their hands, and indirectly controlled the tea. Even if the emperor is a fool, he would not agree to intervene in the government, let alone such a shrewd person as the Supreme Emperor.

So Lin Ruhai was allowed to be the censor of the salt inspection until now, but before everyone could fight for this position, Lin Ruhai handed in his resignation directly, and waved his hand to say that I would not play with you goodbye.

In one breath, the person staring at this position can spit it out or swallow it, but the vast majority of people are happy in their hearts. For no reason and no effort, a fat job is vacated. The more such things the better.

Lin Ruhai is the confidant of the Supreme Emperor, even if he wants to resign, even if the Emperor has some very reasons in his mind, he still has to get the Supreme Emperor's consent.At first the Taishanghuang disagreed, but later he couldn't control so much, because the Taishanghuang fell ill.

The Taishanghuang's illness was very strange, people with dark hearts might wonder if it was the emperor who did it, but the emperor was really wronged.Although the presence of the Supreme Emperor is a restraint for him, it is also a restraint for those brothers under him. He has no right to sit on the throne in his hands. The longer the Supreme Emperor lives, the more power he can grasp. To a certain extent, the emperor does not want the emperor to die early.

The Supreme Emperor was ill. As sons, the emperors and princes naturally had to go to the palace to serve the bed, and then the tiankeng came, and the Supreme Emperor passed away in his sleep within a few days of attending the bed!Now the princes who are serving the bed are yellow mud falling off their crotches, and they are either shit or shit.

Regardless of whether it was a coincidence or someone's scheming, in short, the emperor took this opportunity to put the princes under house arrest, and it was the kind that was upright and justified, and no one else could gossip about it.

The emperor was dead, and several rebel leaders were also controlled by the emperor. It was inevitable that the emperor would start to clean up the government.Although there was no bloody storm when the new emperor ascended the throne, it was just the calm before the storm.

At this time, it showed that Lin Ruhai's scheming was coming. He handed in the letter of resignation before the death of the Supreme Emperor, not after the death of the Supreme Emperor.Therefore, the emperor did not embarrass him, and thinking of Lin Jin, who was also Tanhua, the emperor readily approved Lin Ruhai's memorial, and only waited for the new inspector Yan Yushi to take over the official duties, and Lin Ruhai began to escape.

Those who were not as accurate as Lin Ruhai would be unlucky. Naturally, the iron rods were the first batch to be cleaned by the emperor, those who opposed the emperor were placed in the second batch, and those fools were placed in the third batch.

Neither the Lin family nor the Lin family were on the list, but the Jia family was excluded from the third batch because of their marriage with the Wang family, a historian.

what does this mean! ?

It means that whether the Jia family will be ruined or not will be ransacked depends on the emperor's will. If the emperor is happy, he will not raid the house. If the emperor is not happy, he will directly ransack the house. It all depends on the emperor's preference.

It's a pity that neither the man nor the woman in Jia's house realized that their situation was very dangerous at this time, and if they were not careful, they would be in bad luck.
