The Red Chamber Collection

However, the fire could not be covered by paper, and this matter could not be hidden from the eyes of those troublemakers, and soon the news reached the queen's ears.The queen told the queen mother about this rumor, because it related to the royal reputation.The queen mother recruited the eunuch.

"Does anyone know about this?" the Queen Mother asked the eunuch.

"Queen Dowager, only the little ones know about this, and I haven't told anyone about it. Don't worry, Queen Mother!"

The queen mother smiled: "You have done a good job! You have taken care of Daqing's reputation, Eunuch Gu, take him to receive the reward!"

Eunuch Gu understood what the Empress Dowager meant, and took that father-in-law to a house, Eunuch Gu said: "Who else is there at home, tell me!"

"There's only one old lady left!"

"Oh, that's okay, nothing to worry about. This is 100 taels of silver, enough for your old lady's expenses!"

"Thank you queen mother, thank you father-in-law!"

Eunuch Gu chatted with him about family affairs and knew his home address.Eunuch Gu said: "It's time to go on the road. If you have anything else to say, bring it to your mother, and I'll bring it with you!"

When the father-in-law heard this, something was wrong.He looked at Eunuch Gu in surprise: "Is the Queen Mother trying to kill someone?"

"Keep it secret, who can guarantee that the living will not speak? Only the dead can't speak, understand?"

Eunuch Gu stopped talking, poured a glass of wine, handed it to him, and said, "The queen mother rewarded her, let's go! Your old lady, someone will take care of her during the holidays!"

The father-in-law had no choice but to know the rules.Since the Empress Dowager said she would take care of his old mother, she must do so.After the father-in-law left, Eunuch Gu didn't treat him badly, so someone bought a coffin that was not worth it, took his lifeblood, and buried him together.He only said that he had a disease and died.This is no surprise in the palace.

Eunuch Gu didn't break his promise either.Seal 100 taels of silver with his mother.Every festival, he asked his apprentices to send some festive items.His mother also passed away in peace.

Although this matter was hidden from the emperor, Eunuch Huang, the eunuch who followed the emperor, was not a vegetarian.Knowing the queen mother's next move, it's time to target Miss Zheng.Miss Zheng is also innocent, the key is that the emperor likes it.

he knows.After Miss Zheng.Then it's my turn, and after I pass, it will bring disaster to the ministers.Then he came out of the palace.Find Jia Daihua, so and so!

Jia Daihua thought to himself, since the Queen Mother knows about this, it is not difficult to find out that he secretly bought the ship for the emperor.The Queen Mother has been offended.Now the father-in-law came to tell again.If I don't do it myself, I'm afraid that Miss Zheng will die.In the future, the emperor will blame him, but he can't bear to walk around.Even if you don't want to go into the water, you are already in the water.So he hired Jiaozi overnight and sent the girl and woman next to Miss Zheng.He specially picked up Ms. Zheng in a house next to the Yuyingtang.Another girl was sent to take care of her.

The Empress Dowager sent someone to inspect and found out that the building was empty.I wondered if this matter had been leaked? !Think again, since it's over.Just give up.The emperor was recruited again.

Soon, the queen mother died.

The emperor was busy with government affairs.Let this matter go.At that time, the silver and property that the emperor bestowed on Miss Zheng were enough for her to survive.

Soon, Ms. Zheng gave birth to a baby girl, very embarrassed.Then he left Jia Daihua and sent him to be raised by others.

Jia Daihua knew very well that this matter was extraordinary, the emperor put his hands aside now, he had to do it himself.There are many people in the whole house, and they are afraid that this matter will be leaked out.Therefore, after inquiring about Qinye, the clerk who had contacts with Jia's family at that time, and knowing that he had no children, he sent the daughter born to Miss Zheng to him.In order to cover people's eyes and ears, he was seen carrying a son from the Yuyingtang. He only talked about a son and a daughter, but they were carried from the Yuyingtang.

When a person reaches middle age, Qin Ye is very precious to have such children.I named my son Qin Zheng; I hope that when he grows up, he can enter an official career, serve the country, and be diligent in political affairs.The baby girl is Qin Keqing, her nickname is Ke'er, she is very cute.The whole house likes it.However, his son's fate was poor, and he died before he was two years old.

When Qin Ye was in his fifties, he thought that his life would be unsustainable, so he didn't want to add a boy.Everyone is surprised.Qin Ye thought in his heart that his life was truly undeserving.He named his son Qin Zhong.

One day, Shixi summoned Jia Daihua and asked about the old man.Jia Daihua told the truth.The emperor was angry, but the empress dowager had been gone for a long time, and she was getting old, how could she blame the empress for this matter? !If the Empress Dowager knew about it, how could she forgive him?And because of the calmness on the surface of the palace recently, it is not uncommon for various princes to fight openly and secretly.How can this matter be used as an introduction to the great Qing Dynasty? !I had to give up.Just let the prince know what happened.

After the prince knew this, he wanted to be filial to the emperor and wanted to take Zheng's mother and daughter into the palace.Unexpectedly, when Miss Zheng learned that it was the emperor who redeemed herself, she felt a shadow in her heart.It's all because when I was young, my home was copied.

I also feel that if I can win the favor of the emperor, I will have no regrets in this life.Then he got rid of the romantic state and shaved his hair to become a nun.

When Shixi knew this, he was very heartbroken.I feel sorry for my daughter.However, this is not an honorable thing, and it is not good to shake the world down in your lifetime.Nai asked Jia Daihua, "Are there any married men in the mansion?"

"There is an incompetent grandson in Xiaguan's mansion, who is seventeen years old and has not yet married!"

"Aiqing, I don't have much time and I have nothing to trust, only this girl, I hope Aiqing will take good care of her! Give her a lifetime of peace"

Jia Daihua immediately knelt down: "Thank you Lord Long En!"

On the day when the zodiac is selected, a heavy dowry will be given immediately to Qin Ye to marry Qin Keqing.After Qin Keqing knew her identity, she was very dissatisfied!Before getting married, she went to Mount Wutai one day to see the emperor.Unexpectedly, the emperor is heartbroken and will never see each other.The informer said: "Your body has been fixed, and I hope you can do it yourself."

Qin Keqing wiped away her tears, her body is so complicated, and she also regards herself as a villain.However, on the day of marriage, all the princes came to treat each other with respect as the princess.The prince succeeds the emperor, although he can't come in person, he still has words to comfort him.The gifts are all better than the princess.Just nameless.

However, Jia's family did not dare to underestimate it.In addition, although the situation of Jianjia's mansion is getting worse and worse, because of Qin Keqing's relationship with the imperial palace, there are many kings here.

The respect you get, Qin Keqing thought.Life is just like that.

Soon, the emperor died.

From Qin Keqing to Jia's Mansion.At this time, Jia Daihua had already learned from the emperor to retire, chanted scriptures and chanted Taoism, and ignored the affairs of the mansion.

Jia Rong is proud of Qin Keqing and respects each other like a guest.However, Jia Rong has already become more and more comfortable, how can she guard her beauty for a long time? !After a long time, friends and friends greet each other, and it is inevitable to enter the fireworks and wine alley again.Freshness towards Qin Keqing.It's long gone.

Fortunately, Qin Keqing's life was not rich and luxurious since she was a child, and she was satisfied with living in Jia's family without worrying about food and clothing.Up and down every day, the words are more amiable.And because everyone in the Jia family knew her identity.Up to the old lady, and Jia Daihua Rongguo Mansion.Respect is added.So Qin Keqing.It was also like a fish in water, and lived a comfortable life.

How could Ningguo Mansion be so corrupt.Relying on the ancestors to build the foundation, there are also acres of land to earn money.Not enterprising.All day long, my grandson drank and had fun, courted prostitutes and sang songs, and forgot the good ancestral precepts.

Qin Keqing's heart is slightly heavy.Because I don't know what the big family did.Think this is to enjoy peace.I don't care.But gradually I felt that this was not what I wanted.Up to the father-in-law Hu Wei.Down to the husband who commits adultery.Every advice is heard today.Leave it behind tomorrow.

Or one day, drinking with Sister Feng and being drunk by a group of aunts.The body was exhausted, but when he woke up, he was naked in his father-in-law's arms.Very ashamed.

For a long time, the father-in-law disturbed each other.And consciously no one will know, get this joy.As time goes by, the taboo is not as good as before.There is a saying that "If you are someone you don't know, unless you do nothing yourself"!The news spread, it was no secret to the whole house.Only Youshi was kept in the dark.

Why is it that Qin Keqing thinks about adultery day and night, and is sick.Naiyou began to doubt again.Knowing that his fate was over, he hanged himself to save his younger brother Qin Zhong's reputation.

Jia's family kept the news from top to bottom and dared not let outsiders know about it.It only said that the sick body suffered early disasters, the treatment was ineffective, and he died.

As soon as the news came out, there were many doubters.It's just that there is no evidence to say that the Jia family is not.

This matter is what the princess said was unknown to the late emperor.

?

The emperor looked at Yanzi and said with a smile: "You underestimate Shao'er too! Besides, how can Ji'er be compared to her?!"

"It's incomparable, I'm just afraid you're going to give me medicine!"

The emperor looked at the swallow and said mockingly: "Do you think the hairdresser is like you? What's the use of getting the hairdresser's body but not the heart of the hairdresser? I have made a brother-sister agreement with the hairdresser. If you slander me any more, I can punish your sin!"

Yanzi said angrily: "You pull it down! Don't ask me whether you are guilty or not, you are dying, will I give you a favor?! Say this next time, and I won't give you face."

The emperor cried and said with a mournful face: "I am also an emperor after all, can you show me some face?"

"In front of the ministers, I didn't give you face? Didn't you say whatever you want!" Yanzi said.

"Then there is Prince Gege?"

"Pull it down, if you are serious, I will not give you face? They are all sisters of my own family. If I want to give you face again, is it still my swallow? You like face, do you want me to get you a piece from Shaoer?" Linzi?"

The emperor started to joke, clasped his hands together, and said, "Auntie, my sister-in-law wishes my brother well, why are you always against me!"

Swallow saw that the emperor was subdued, Fang smiled and said: "As long as you let me go, everything is easy to discuss!"

The emperor said: "You still use your elm head to think about Shao'er? Is that Shao'er as weak as you think? You have already taken me down. I dare to swear in front of you, if I try again, God damn it!" The five thunders are booming!"

"Yo yo yo, look at you as an emperor, you are not afraid of being laughed at when you say this. Forget it, forget it, I won't talk to you. Tell me, I want to be a little girl, and my hand is in short supply recently, can you help me a little bit?" "

The emperor clasped his hands together and said, "Auntie, you said it was over?! Just for these few money, I spared me a long time and wasted my time!"

"I'm not only for myself. Let me declare to you first, if there is a shortage of money in the hairpin, I can go to weaving mansion to get it!"

"You can't be foolish!" The emperor shook his head: "How much you take from me is a matter between us brothers and sisters. If you take it from Zhizao Mansion, the taste will be different!"

Yanzi glanced at the emperor, and said disdainfully: "Grandma, I'm going to weave in Suzhou, and that's for him. Do I still need it? Pat the table, I don't like the [-] to [-] silver!"

The emperor hurriedly said: "Swallow, I will warn you again about this matter, don't participate. Don't wait until then, things will not end well.!"

"You don't need to tell me, I've seen a lot of people in the court who are obedient and vicious. I don't believe it, these people can't be cured! Hmph!"

The emperor had lingering fears about Yanzi's last snort.He knew that she couldn't convince Yanzi.

"I'll allocate 2 taels for you, and say that you will build a palace in Suzhou. Is it possible?"

"Your sister, let me ask, it's only 2 taels, and you're ashamed to say it, I'm ashamed for you!" Yanzi said shamelessly to her brother.

"It's only 3 taels, whether you want it or not. I don't have the time to argue with you shameless rascal."

Yanzi thought for a while and said, "Then write me a sum as you said, so that I can get the money."

The emperor wrote a stroke, and when he handed it to Yanzi, he said: "This is the last stroke, there will be no more!"

"If you don't give it to me, I don't want it either. If you use it next time and it's still the same as last time, I'll go beg for food!"

The emperor looked at the swallow's back, dumbfounded.He remembered that last year, because Yanzi asked him for money and asked him to write a sum, the emperor did not write.Yanzi really went to the houses of various officials in the capital to beg.He kept saying: "I am Princess Swallow, because there is no food at home, I only need food, not money."

Prince Bei Jing was so frightened that he comforted her at home and treated her with good wine and food.I immediately went to the palace to report to the emperor.The emperor immediately got angry and ordered his father-in-law to call her into the palace and said, "Are you really poor or fake poor? Why do you ask me for money everywhere?"

"If I don't ask you, who should I ask for it? You asked me to take care of her. If I go to see her now, if you don't give me money, I have to get it myself? There is no reason!"

"Did I let you go? You want to play by yourself, and you still want money from me."

"Then it's none of your business if I ask for food?"

"Shame!" The emperor pointed at the swallow and said, "You have completely lost the face of the royal family!"

"I don't care! If you feel ashamed, give me the money! If you think the money should not be given, then I will come over tomorrow morning and ask all the ministers to comment on this gift! Who will be ashamed when I see it!"

"You, you are threatening!" The emperor pointed at Yanzi angrily.

"Yo yo yo, I have never seen you so stingy. When you see a beautiful woman, you will spend a lot of money to get her. To your own sister, you are so stingy. What do you call it? Send 1 taels of silver to my house tomorrow morning, otherwise, even if you look for it yourself, I will not enter the palace, and I will go to the street to beg for food, only to the minister's house!"

The emperor told the empress dowager angrily, and the empress dowager said: "She wants some money, so you can just give it to her! Why do you have to talk about it? You are the emperor and her brother. She doesn't act like a baby in front of you. Who is going to act like a spoiled child?"

The emperor said angrily: "If I knew she was like this, I would have married her far away. The farther the better!"

"Swallow's marriage was your idea. Who do you blame now?"

That night, the emperor reluctantly sent someone to send 1 taels of silver to the son-in-law's mansion.

Yanzi took 3 taels of silver and kicked it in her arms.First went to the Sixth Prince's Mansion: "What is Sixth Brother busy with today?"

"Whether I'm busy or not has nothing to do with you. You still go to work on you, I don't have time to chat with you. If you like something good in the house, just take it and don't need to return to me."

"Sixth brother, it seems that I have a problem with your sister! Well, well, originally I wanted to discuss with you about going to Yaner's place, if that's the case, then forget it, I'll discuss it with others!"

"Stop, no matter how busy I am with such a big matter, I have to put it down! Hey, sister, what are you going to do?"

"You can go anywhere, this is the travel expenses, and there are still shortcomings."

"How much is missing, Brother!"

"Originally 3000 taels was enough, but now my sister is heartbroken, how can 3000 taels be enough!"

"5000 taels, brother, will it work? When will you leave?" The sixth prince laughed and leaned towards Yanzi and said.

"For your 5000 taels of silver, just these two days! Sixth brother, I heard that you got the bronze sword from the Warring States period yesterday. I wonder if I can let my sister appreciate it?"

"Which son of a bitch said this?" The Sixth Prince had a bitter face, as if he was about to cry.

"Don't worry, I won't take yours for nothing this time. How about I exchange the emperor's little sword with you?"

"Don't go back on your word!" The emperor lost his spirit when he heard that the small sword was worth less than the bronze sword.

"Look at you, you're as worthless as the emperor! I'm a swallow, have you ever regretted it?!" L
