[Red Mansion] Let's listen to a general's order

"Those two girls from the Lin family are really good-looking!" Inside the Lixiangyuan, Aunt Xue dragged her daughter's hand and couldn't stop admiring.

Xue Baochai nodded in agreement, but her focus was a little different from that of her mother, "Those two are not only good-looking, but also have a temperament, and the daughter is simply ashamed of themselves. Their status is even more noble, the father is the servant of the household department, and the uncle's family is Rong En." Uncle's Mansion, I heard that the third master in the mansion loves his two nieces very much." At the end, she couldn't help showing envy in her eyes.

The Xue family has been in Beijing for half a month, and they have been living in Rong Enbo's mansion, and the Xue family's mother and daughter have become acquainted with the people in the mansion.Today, Shi Shi missed his granddaughter and nephew, so he sent someone to take Yiyu, Daiyu, and Shi Xiangyun over to the mansion, just in time for Xue's mother and daughter to see him. His three cousin girls.

Shi Xiangyun is okay, just a naive little girl who has never experienced the world, but the appearance of the Lin family sisters really hit Xue Baochai's strong self-esteem.

It can be said that the looks are evenly divided, and the talents are good at their own strengths, but the status of this family is really different.

The sisters of the Lin family seemed to have something personal to say to the old lady, so all the people who had gathered in Rongxi hall to entertain the old lady went back to their courtyards.

Aunt Xue hurriedly pulled her up, hugged her into her arms, and said dotingly: "My son's appearance is no different from the two girls from the Lin family. Chunlanqiuju is good at winning games. Besides, my son has a good character and is gifted and intelligent. , knowledge of books and etiquette, how can it be inferior to the girl of the Lin family!"

"By the way! What do you think of that precious jade?" She asked.

Aunt Xue talked about Baoyu's advantages to herself, "Baoyu is good-looking and good-natured, and she is very clever on the way of poetry and writing. She is also the young master of the Earl's Mansion, and you two are cousins ​​of the second aunt. When the time comes... you My aunt will definitely treat her like her own daughter! Besides, if you...have him, our mother and daughter can often see each other." She was absolutely sure of this golden relationship in her heart, and she wished to settle it immediately, lest such a good son-in-law Candidates slipped away.

However, Xue Baochai didn't think so, "Although Baoyu is good, the one who inherits the title is the elder, and the one who will inherit the title in the future will be Jia Hu from the eldest family. At present, it is only because the old lady is still there, so there is no separation. However, the uncle will be separated sooner or later, and Baoyu is only the second son. Even if the aunt is partial and willing to help, I am afraid that the days to come will be very difficult!" After she became successful, Baoyu was only the second son of a fifth-rank official family. Although she was quite talented in poetry and calligraphy, she was not satisfied with this.

"Mother, please answer to my aunt first, and don't agree to her." This is to use Baoyu as a spare tire.

"If my daughter is lucky enough to be selected as the school attendant of the princess princess, she will have a position of praise and kindness, and her confidence will be even higher at that time." There are more families to choose from.

One of the reasons why the Xue family's mother and son came to Beijing with their family is because the emperor respected poetry and respected etiquette, and ordered that in addition to hiring concubines, all the daughters of officials and famous families can report their names to the Ministry of Rites, so that they can be selected as the princesses and princesses. Escort.

"Okay! My son has a good personality and appearance, and he can manage the family well. I don't worry about not having a good husband." Aunt Xue agreed with a smile.

Her family's Baochai is smart and sensible, and has always been thoughtful, and there is always nothing wrong with listening to her.Moreover, compared to her sister and her sister's Baoyu, Aunt Xue still loves her own daughter more.

Aunt Xue pointed out: "In this case, my son will get closer to Sister Shan and the two girls of the Lin family."

Jia Shan has even been in and out of the palace several times, and it is said that she is quite popular with the emperor and empress, and has a good relationship with several princesses and princesses. Even many girls from top families in Beijing are handkerchiefs from her.If Baochai wants to stand out from the encirclement among the daughters of noble families who are eager to be praised by talented people, the chance is probably on Jiashan.

The father of the Lin family sisters is the servant of the household department, and they are all ranked high in the circle of ladies in Beijing. If Baochai wants to break into the circle of boudoirs in Beijing and get the attention of the wives of the first-class wealthy families in Beijing, he must marry the Lin sisters. We have a good relationship.

What's more, the three of them have the champion Hou Li Lian as their backing. If they can climb that supertree, the Xue family will be able to flourish and repeat Ziwei's reputation as a family member in the past!

"My daughter knows." Xue Baochai had already figured out these points.

When Xue's mother and daughter were discussing how to express their affection to Jia Shan and Lin's sisters, a servant rushed to report.

"Madam! Miss! It's not good! Uncle was arrested by the Shuntian Mansion and sent to jail!!"

"What!?" Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai exclaimed in unison.

Could it be that the news that the son (brother) of Jinling Mansion beat someone to death spread to the capital, and the son (brother) was arrested by the people of Shuntian Mansion! ?

Xue's family had a common painting and calligraphy shop in Liulichang. The shopkeeper rushed to report the news that his owner was sent to prison by the arresters of Shuntian Prefecture for molesting Princess Mingzhu in the street.

Hearing this, Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Brother is confused!" Xue Baochai frowned.

The capital city is not the small place of Jinling in the past, a plaque fell down and killed ten people, and seven of them were related to officials and relatives.

"Now is not the time to talk about this! Baochai, you should quickly think of a way to save your brother!" Aunt Xue had no idea, at the moment she was at a loss, anxious like an ant on a hot pot.

After all, he is his own elder brother and the pillar of the family, no matter how calm and rational Xue Baochai is, he can't ignore him.

"Princess Mingzhu is not an ordinary princess with no real power, but she is the first female general in my Great Zhou. She has made great military achievements, is highly trusted by the emperor, and loved by the people. She was promoted to the commander of Tiance Mansion a while ago! No matter how good the reputation of our Xue family's imperial merchants is, it can't compare with the real sons and phoenixes of others. The Shuntian Mansion will never give our family face, I'm afraid this matter will have to trouble the champion to take action." Champion. Hou Ruoken helped, based on his friendship with Princess Mingzhu, it was only a matter of one sentence.If it works well, maybe you can take the opportunity to become the champion.However, they don't know the champion Hou Su, and they don't have the hole cards to make the champion Hou make a move. I'm afraid it depends on the old lady, Jia Shan and the two girls from the Lin family.

"It's not too late! Mother, let's go to find my aunt immediately, and then go to Rongxi Hall to find the old lady!" Xue Baochai said decisively.

"Okay! Let's go right away!" Aunt Xue quickly grabbed her daughter's hand and hurriedly walked all the way to Wang's yard, fearing that her son would suffer an extra moment if she took a step too late.

The two mothers and daughters didn't even bother to pay attention to the servants next to them who greeted them, and the haste of walking made everyone wonder.

"Hmph! You monkey dare to follow Mingzhu to deceive me!" Taishanghuang pointed at Li Lian and cursed angrily.

"You're looking at me for getting old! I'm confused! Can't you just treat me as a fool!?"

"I'm telling you! I'm old! But I'm not confused! I'm still sober!!"

"I have loved you for more than 30 years in vain, are you treating me like this!?"

"One is like this! Both are like this! Are you trying to make me feel so angry!?"

"Where is Li Mingzhu! She dares to do it but dare not admit it!? Isn't she very courageous!? None of the young talents selected for her by her mother and concubine are in her eyes! I have to find it myself! Now! Find it! After looking for it, I found a broken Liuhan Baling!?"

"Who is that Po Liuhan Baling!? The Huns! Just a surrendered general! It is the emperor's kindness that he can be made a general! Otherwise, he would have gone to the mine with his clansmen to mine!"

Ningshou Palace had already sent away all the palace officials, only Taishanghuang, Dai Quan and Li Lian were left.

The Supreme Emperor's expression was extremely angry, and he opened his mouth at Li Lian to scold Li Lian mercilessly.

It would be unbelievable for other people to see this scene, especially the old courtiers of the Manchu Dynasty knew how much the Supreme Emperor loved Li Lian, his "little son", and he wanted the stars not to give the moon. None of the servants in the palace had ever heard the Supreme Emperor scold Li Lian.

Li Lian was so scolded that he bowed his head, and dared not give an explanation, secretly complaining in his heart that Li Mingzhu had tricked him to death this time.

God knows that he only knew about Li Mingzhu and Po Liuhan Baling an hour earlier than the Supreme Emperor!

In fact, this matter is not involved in Li Lian's head no matter what, but this time Li Mingzhu fell in love with this humble man Po Liuhan Baling without telling everyone, it really made the Supreme Emperor think of some unpleasant memories of the past.

What happened between Li Lian and Feng Zizhi back then, and what happened between Li Mingzhu and Po Liuhan Baling now are simply the same!

More than ten years ago, the Supreme Emperor wanted to marry Li Lian and Li Mingzhu, but unexpectedly, Li Lian rejected the Li Mingzhu whom the Supreme Emperor chose for him. He fell in love with Feng Zizhi in private, and refused to bow his head even if he died;

More than ten years later, the old concubine wanted to choose a good son-in-law for Li Mingzhu, but unexpectedly Li Mingzhu was a young talent who rejected the nobles of many families, and fell in love with Po Liuhan Baling in private.

This has to be blamed on the Supreme Emperor for associating the two things, and the anger in his body continued to rise, scolding Li Lian, the "culprit", to the point of blood.

After finally waiting for the Supreme Emperor to take a break for a while, Li Lian hurriedly stepped forward and walked behind him, and began to massage his acupoints familiarly.

The anger hurts the body, the emperor is not young, and his body is getting worse.Seeing that it is too late if you don't take good care of your body and bones when you are healthy and healthy.

Stealing a glimpse of the Taishang Emperor's frown finally relaxed a bit, Li Lian said weakly: "My lord! I just learned about the matter between Xuanwei and that Po Liuhan Baling!"

"I dare not hide from you even if I have the guts of a bear, not to mention what I will hide from you since I was a child? Even when I wet the bed when I was a child, I will tell you the next day!" In order to pick myself out, Li Lian is very hardworking!

Li Lian hugged herself distressedly.

"Hmph! You didn't tell me about you and Yannian!" The Taishang Emperor's face softened, and the anger still remained.

"No, you found out within two days after the start!" Li Lian smiled awkwardly.

The Taishanghuang's anger actually didn't mean that he was dissatisfied with Feng Zizhi... um... it was a big dissatisfaction.Although he is still bitter about Feng Zizhi's inability to continue Li Lian's heirs, he has acquiesced to Feng Zizhi's "daughter-in-law" for many years.It's just that it's common sense for a mother-in-law to dislike her daughter-in-law, and over the years, the only time Li Lian contradicted him was because of Feng Zizhi, so it was inevitable that the Supreme Emperor would still remember this incident.

Moreover, since Li Lian moved to Xiaotangshan with Feng Zizhi, he never entered the palace to greet the Supreme Emperor again.Old child, old child, the Supreme Emperor is unhappy, but he doesn't think that Li Lian is currently nesting in Xiaotang Mountain because of "rehabilitation". He only thinks that this "son" is capable and no longer filial to himself!Therefore, it is inevitable to take advantage of this matter and take the opportunity to vent my "grievances".

Li Lian had another round of massage to curry favor, and after making all kinds of unequal promises, the Supreme Emperor was "reluctantly" satisfied and shut up.

As the person who knew the Supreme Emperor best, Dai Quan kept laughing beside him without saying a word.

Jiang is still old and hot, and Jingya still has something to learn.

At this time, after Li Mingzhu and Po Liuhan Baling went to Fengmanlou to eat chicken, they went straight into the palace, leaving the crowd guarding the gate of her princess's mansion in vain.

However, the old concubine and the others were not vegetarians, they immediately divided into two groups, going straight to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to seek an audience with the emperor, and all the way to Ningshou Palace to seek an audience with the Supreme Emperor.

At this time, Li Mingzhu didn't know what her mother, uncles and brothers were going to do, so she walked into Ningshou Palace full of joy.

After a hurried salute, he threw himself into the arms of the Supreme Emperor and acted like a baby.

"Grandfather, granddaughter hasn't seen you for a long time! I miss you so much! It's all because Li Jingya is the shopkeeper who gave the position of commander to my granddaughter, so that my granddaughter has no time to enter the palace to greet you!" Li Mingzhu said those words without the slightest bit of guilt, making Li Lian pointing at her tremblingly in disbelief.

"Yes! It's all to blame on this bastard! Our Mingzhu has worked hard! Later, the emperor asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to create some brand-new and fashionable jewelry for you." The Supreme Emperor reversed the way he was bearded and stared at Li Lian just now, and smiled kindly. road.

Now, Li Lian turned his unbelievable eyes to the Supreme Emperor.

He promised to be a fake father and son who will be closer than his own father and son for the rest of his life!

Li Mingzhu responded with a smile on behalf of the Supreme Emperor, this is not a father and son, but a grandson!You can now understand how I felt before!

Li Lian stared back, if you have the ability, don't ask me for help in the future!

Li Mingzhu's eyes rolled away, this is not good, and this super easy-to-use candidate cannot be easily lost.

"Grandfather! My granddaughter wanted to buy some gadgets for you at Liulichang just now, but a blind man dared to tease my granddaughter!"

When the Supreme Emperor heard the words, he also laughed.

Where did the second idiot come from?How dare you moles his granddaughter, who is of extraordinary strength, what a brave man!

Li Mingzhu reported: "The most abhorrent thing is that that bastard dared to use the name of Champion Hou to bluff outside! He pretended to be the Champion's family! Every granddaughter of Li Jingya's family knew each other. The face was so vivid and obvious. It's fake!"

"What!?" The Supreme Emperor frowned, and his hands holding Li Mingzhu loosened accordingly.

Li Mingzhu stood up knowingly and sat aside.

Still be a little self-conscious!Don't wait for someone to rush you to wake up, after all, true love is not yourself!

The Supreme Emperor stretched out his hand and beckoned Li Lian to his side.

"Who have you offended recently?"

Li Lian said innocently: "I've been recuperating in Xiaotangshan recently! Except that I went to Beijing half a month to have a meal with Lin Ruhai, and slept in Lin Han's residence for a night, and then I'm gone." Lin Han couldn't be killed After being beaten up twice, he sent people to slander him with a grudge.

That's right!He beat Lin Han not once, but twice.

That night, after he had finished his work as a solutionist, he thought it was not a good taste, so he took advantage of the night to beat Lin Han up again.So, hearing that Lin Han was able to find Yiyu alive the next day, Li Lian could only say that the power of love is great.

As a terminal conspiracy theory patient, the Supreme Emperor thinks much more than Li Mingzhu.

He knew that the emperor had recently ordered Wu Bin to attack the four major families.

Is it because the Jia family saw that Lian'er had returned from a big victory, so they used his name to bully men and women?

Is it because the emperor didn't intend to let Lian'er go, so he ordered people to ruin Lian'er's reputation first?

Or did Wu Bin make up his own mind and try to curry favor with the emperor, so he attacked Li Lian in private?

"Dai Quan, you will go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation and tell the emperor later."

If it was done by the emperor, it is to show him that the emperor has already known about it, and the emperor should stop;

If it wasn't for the emperor's actions, it is for the emperor to find out the truth and return Li Lian's innocence.

However, the Taishang Huang privately thought that it was not the emperor's instigation, such a shameless petty behavior did not seem to be the emperor's handwriting.

Seeing that the Supreme Emperor had made a decision, Li Mingzhu took the opportunity to say: "Grandfather, then...then about me and Po Liuhan pulling the tomb..."

The Supreme Emperor glared at her, but fortunately the anger in his heart had almost vented on Li Lian, and he didn't open his mouth to scold her, "My daughter is shameless! What's so good about that guy whose surname is broken? Even his name is broken!" As soon as you hear it, you know it's not good!"

"I will discuss with your mother and concubine later, and choose a good-looking man from the picture scroll who has a good family background, good looks, good character, ability and a bright future for you!"

"Grandpa Huang! His surname is double, Po Liuhan, not Po!" Li Mingzhu defended Po Liuhan Baling.

The Supreme Emperor sneered, he knew that the Hun's surname was not Po, so what?A whole broken name!That sounds unlucky!
