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

"Hey! What kind of wind is blowing today? It even brought the concubine and the concubine here!" Mrs. Shi took Xiao Zhang to welcome the concubine Nan'an and the princess of Nan'an outside Rongxi hall. And because Concubine Nan'an and Princess Nan'an are in the name of reminiscing about the old days, it is not good for them to stay here, so they have to go to the study to pay close attention to the situation.

Concubine Nan'an was embarrassed and even annoyed by Shi's nonsensical words, but this was also expected.

I saw her hold Shi's hand with a stern face, and said affectionately: "Old sister, do you blame my sister for not coming to the house for a long time? My sister used to be unwell and in a bad spirit, so she stopped bothering me at home. Today, my sister has to have a good life with my sister." Reminiscing about the old days is the way to go, my sister has a lot of self-deprecating things to say to her!"

Nan'an County King's Mansion sounds noble, but the court has always disliked kings with different surnames. Compared with Jia Daishan, the old Nan'an County King is a head lower than Jia Daishan, whether in front of the emperor or in the court.What's more, Shi Shi has a son who is so outstanding that he can hang ten Nan'an County princes, and the Concubine Nan'an still has to ask Shi Shi, so she can't get tough in front of Shi Shi. How low.

Reaching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, Shi had no choice but to enter the Rongxi Hall with the concubine in a friendly manner.

After chatting for a while, Concubine Nan'an couldn't help but said: "Speaking of which, except for the concubine Xiande, my sister has never seen the granddaughter of the old sister's family! My sister has heard that the granddaughter of the old sister's family is all handed over by the old sister. Well-educated. Under the careful guidance of her elder sister, the Xiande Concubine has grown up in nature, is chaste and elegant, and intelligent, and her younger sister must be no worse." The implication is that she wants to meet the girl from Jia's family up.

Concubine Nan'an couldn't help but be impatient. Her own son was in the hands of Japanese pirates, and every moment she was late to redeem her, she would suffer an extra moment.What if the Japanese pirates suddenly find their son not pleasing to their eyes and directly click him?She has lost her husband, but she can't lose her son again!She just wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible, redeem her son, and keep the family safe...even if it would cost a good girl.

Seeing that Concubine Nan'an even brought out the virtuous concubines from the palace, Shi Shi had no choice but to send someone to invite some girls from the family to come over.

"This must be Rong Enbo's daughter-in-law! Zhen'er often mentioned you to me, saying that sister Shan of the Jia family has a gentle temperament and understanding, which is much better than her frizzy and lazy temper!" Nan'an Concubine He praised Jia Shan full of praise, looking like he wanted to be recognized as his granddaughter.

Jia Shan seemed to be shy and bowed her head in silence, but she was actually thinking that according to the original words of the little princess of the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion, it should be that Jia Shan of Jia's family loves to put on airs, put on gestures, and win over noble people, which makes her very disgusted!When she was playing with Princess Chang'an in the palace, the little Princess wanted to be with them. The Princess Bisheng looked down on her delicate, pretentious, domineering and savage temperament, and rejected her several times.The little princess is also bullying the good and fearing the evil, she dare not trouble the princess, but she hates her.

Princess Nan'an couldn't help but coughed lightly, and reminded her mother-in-law: "Miss Jia will marry Duke Zhen's younger brother next year. I have seen the young master of the Niu family. Standing with the eldest girl is really a man of talent. A match made in heaven!"

Concubine Nan'an was disappointed when she heard the words. She devoted herself to worshiping the Buddha for many years, and she had her daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law below to take care of the internal and external affairs of the mansion. Apart from some major events, she hadn't paid attention to other news in Beijing.

However, the dignified daughter of Earl Rong En's family, she did not expect that she would have such a big face and ability to make the House of Earl Rong En willing to send their first daughter to "marry" Japanese pirates.It is absolutely impossible for the daughter of Earl Rong En's family to marry those lowly Japanese pirates in the south in place of Zhen'er. Even if their family is a royal residence, their family is only a royal residence, and it is a king with a different surname, not an emperor of the royal family.

Therefore, Concubine Nan'an, who hadn't counted on this at first, quickly continued to pull herself together and set her eyes on the remaining two girls.

Shi introduced: "The one on the left is Tanchun from my second son's family, and the one on the right is my cousin Xichun."

Concubine Nan'an and Princess Nan'an hastily boasted that they were still young, and after a few words of childish Xichun on their faces, they concentrated their fire on Tanchun.

"Tanchun has met Princess Nan'an and Princess Nan'an."

Concubine Nan'an took Tanchun by the hand, asked a few questions amiably, and praised her again and again.

"Old sister! Your granddaughter is a great teacher! I like it very much when I see it!"

"No way! Not only the concubine mother likes it, but I also love it from the bottom of my heart! I can't wait to take her back to the palace and be my daughter!" Princess Nan'an hugged Tanchun into her arms and said with a smile on her face.

She motioned for a servant to hold a plate, and took a gold-encrusted jade bracelet from the plate, and carefully put it on Tanchun's wrist.

"This is too precious!" Tanchun said in a panic, his eyes unconsciously looked in the direction of Shi Shi and Xiao Zhang.

"Good boy! As soon as I saw you, I felt kind, as if you were a mother and daughter in a previous life. If you don't mind, just call me mother!" Princess Nan'an decided to settle the relationship between mother and daughter first.

Concubine Nan'an smiled and said, "Okay! Zhen'er will be very happy to have a new sister!"

Tanchun was stunned. No matter how confident she was, she would not think that she was really so cute. Even the princess was rushing to recognize her as her daughter. If it were Sister Shan, she would believe it. But she is just a concubine from a small worker, how could such a great blessing come from!

Before Tanchun could speak, Princess Nan'an smiled like a wolf grandmother and said, "Since you are my daughter, you must have the title of princess! I will go to the palace to tell the empress dowager and empress for you. Your Majesty asks for a princess title!"

Concubine Nan'an and Princess Nan'an looked at Tanchun and smiled very satisfied.

Now there is a time difference, and before the Jia family knew about the Japanese pirates' request, they took the initiative to forcefully recognize the concubine of the Jia family as the princess of Nan'an County's palace, and immediately entered the palace to ask the emperor to order this girl to marry her go south.After the matter is settled, they are not afraid that the Jia family will dare to resist the decree for this little concubine, at most they will give some compensation, at worst the relationship between the two families will be bad from now on!It's just that it's a pity that Zhen'er's position as princess is lost.The emperor was furious, and I'm afraid he would not be willing to bestow another title of princess.Since the concubine of the Jia family is going to marry her instead, the name of princess has to be transferred from Zhen'er to the concubine of the Jia family, which is considered cheap for the concubine of the Jia family!

The wishful thinking of the two mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law was clattering, but the prerequisite for all this was that the Jia family did not know what the Japanese pirates wanted.

"How can this little girl, Tanchun, be able to climb up to the Nan'an County Palace! The Nan'an Princess should take back her words!" Shi Shi regarded it as a chance for the Nan'an County Palace to change.

"Old sister, this granddaughter is really likable. My younger sister is begging for favors from you today, so that Tanchun's boy can have another family." Grand Concubine Nan'an only thought that Shi was being polite.

Mrs. Zhang didn't say much all the time, but her face turned cold all of a sudden.

This is shameless!

Although Tanchun belonged to the Erfang family, she was the one who raised her up since she was a child.Mrs. Zhang doesn't mind marrying Tan Chunfeng, but she definitely won't marry the pirates in the south after becoming the princess!

"My Jia family's daughter will be taken care of by my Jia family. The concubine and princess should go back home and discuss how to redeem the king of Nan'an County!" There are some things that the Shi family can't say, but the little Zhang family can.

"You!" Concubine Nan'an didn't realize that Jia's family already knew about the Japanese pirates' request, she only thought that Mrs. Zhang was picking on them.

Princess Nan'an was more irritated than her, and asked Tanchun directly: "Don't be afraid, just ask if you would like to be the little princess of my Nan'an Prince's Mansion! As long as you are willing, I will enter the palace to ask for a title for you! With the title of princess, who else would dare to look down on you!" He directly described Xiao Zhang's words as looking down on Tanchun's identity, so as to provoke the relationship between the two.

Xiao Zhang's face suddenly became ugly, but she and Shi didn't make a sound, they just looked at Tanchun to see her reaction.

In any case, they would not allow the Jia family's daughter to marry the Japanese pirates on behalf of the little princess of Nan'an County Wangfu's family.

This is not only a matter of face, but also a matter of the Jia family's future status in Beijing, and even Li Lian.Just imagine, even a small Nan'an Prince's Mansion dared to ride on the Jia family's head, ordering Jia's daughter to marry a lowly Japanese pirate instead of the small county Wang Yuan of the Nan'an Prince's Mansion.Others don't care if it's because of the emperor's pressure or the Jia family's sacrifice for the overall situation, they will only say that the Jia family is a soft persimmon, which is at the mercy of others.And Li Lian couldn't even keep his own niece, she was a waste, or even unwilling to help his brother's daughter, showing no brotherhood or kindness from elders.

It's just that they want to see whether Tanchun is a ruthless, snobbish, white-eyed wolf, or a good daughter of the Jia family who knows what's good and who is grateful.

Xichun was young and had never seen a big scene, so she was intimidated by the tense scene for a while, and hid secretly behind her sister Jia Shan.

While protecting Xichun, Jia Shan paid attention to the situation in front of her and analyzed it in her heart.As the eldest daughter of Jia She and Xiao Zhang's family, the Jia family will not hide many things from her.Although the incident happened suddenly, Mrs. Zhang did not have time to tell her the news of Xiao Bing, but combined with the ransom demanded by the Japanese pirates - 30 taels of silver and a princess, it is thought that Princess Nan'an now wants to recognize Tanchun as her daughter. To invite her to be the princess... everything is already obvious.

Although Tanchun is a girl, she is shrewd and capable, and knows everything in her heart. Sometimes even the aunt, Mrs. Wang, has to be afraid of her.

Although she doesn't know what happened now, she also vaguely feels that her choice will affect her future.

By recognizing Princess Nan'an as my mother, I can not only get rid of my status as a concubine, but also get the title of princess. In the future, no one will be able to look down on me based on my status, and the Nan'an Prince's Mansion will become my backer, even if the Jia family doesn't like it. I'm afraid I can't do anything to myself.

"Tanchun is very grateful for the love of the concubine and the princess. However, Tanchun is just a little concubine daughter. If the concubine accepts Tanchun as a daughter, it may cause criticism, and it will be bad for the reputation of the Nan'an County palace. And , the old lady is right, this little girl Tanchun really can't compete with the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion." His words fully expressed his attitude.

Tanchun thinks very clearly that Jia's family is her real mother's backing.Compared with the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion far away in the sky, the Jia family who gave birth to him is closer and more reliable, and the old lady and the eldest lady will never harm him.Moreover, she didn't know what Concubine Nan'an and Princess Nan'an were planning, but she just wanted to take advantage of her status as Jia's daughter.

Now that he had figured this out, Tanchun immediately showed his chariots and horses, and expressed his gratitude for recognizing Princess Nan'an as his mother.

Shi's and Xiao Zhang's faces were filled with relief, they finally didn't raise a white-eyed wolf.

On the contrary, Concubine Nan'an and Princess Nan'an had ugly faces, just like Xiao Zhang's expression just now.

Concubine Nan'an snorted coldly, seeming confident, "Since this is the case, my sister is not hiding the truth. There is a great news from the south, saying that King Shenwu has appointed a girl from your Jia family to be his concubine. The emperor is very concerned about this matter." That's why my younger sister came here specially to share some happiness. I wanted to add some glory to my old sister's house out of good intentions, and to add to the icing on the cake, but I didn't expect to be a villain and meddle in my own business!" The great news is The great joy of Nan'an County Prince's Mansion, not the Jia family's great joy.

Now she is using the emperor's tiger skin as a banner, and there are many words that the Jia family refuses to say, which is contrary to the emperor's intention and means to destroy the diplomatic relations between the two countries.

Shi Shi sneered, thinking that they didn't know what was going on, and used the emperor to suppress them!

"The concubine's words are wrong! There are many princes and county princes in this dynasty, but I don't know where there is a king of martial arts!"

"Shenwu King? Bah! It's just a group of dogs who were defeated by my son and fled back to the sea in desperation. How dare they become kings! Sister, don't blame the old sister. Little Japanese pirates, you also lift them to the height of our Great Zhou Dynasty, you think highly of them too much, let outsiders know that you admire those lowly Japanese pirates very much!" Shi said mockingly.

Concubine Nan'an's face was livid, pointing at Shi Shi with trembling hands, unable to speak.

Princess Nan'an was very calm, and said: "Old Madam, it's not that we are deceiving people too much, it's just that the Japanese have specified that they want your daughter from the Jia family to marry as a wife. You should know a little bit about the current situation, Madam. Second, there are wars everywhere, but our Da Zhou’s military strength is no longer enough. The state of Ohlos in the north is still talking about going south every day, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers from Shaoxing will go north in a few days. When the time comes, the Japanese pirates in the south It is possible to take the opportunity to go ashore again. In order to solve this problem, hundreds of officials in the court are discussing how to truce with the Japanese pirates. If marrying a Jia girl can calm the war and even recover tens of thousands of Japanese, the emperor and the officials in the court Hundreds of officials don't care about sacrificing a daughter! Compared with a legitimate daughter, sacrificing a concubine's daughter is more cost-effective."

Now it was Shi Shi and Xiao Zhang who were speechless, because according to their thinking, if it was not their turn, they all thought that it would be no problem to sacrifice a daughter to the Japanese pirates in exchange for peace.

At this time, "If you can serve the country and save countless people in Dazhou, the Jia family will definitely not hesitate to have a daughter. However, this matter is discussed by the princes in the court, and the emperor Gan Gang decides arbitrarily. It will not bother Nan'an Dowager and Concubine Nan'an." Concubine Nan'an is troublesome! And..."

"Bang, bang!" Tanchun took off the gold-encrusted jade bracelet worth thousands of taels of silver from his wrist, and slammed it on the ground.

"If the emperor really ordered the little girl to marry far away, the first request of the little girl after marrying to the south is to cut off the head of the king of Nan'an County, so as to comfort the souls of thousands of innocent soldiers in Dazhou!" Tanchun landed Said in a voice, with a face of iron bones.

Concubine Nan'an was taken aback for a moment, and then became furious. When did even a little girl dare to threaten her!

Princess Nan'an looked in disbelief at the jade bracelet that had been broken in two on the ground, and at Tan Chunning's state of being broken rather than broken, not only was she not a little bit ashamed, but a wave of admiration welled up in her heart.

This is a good girl, and Zhen'er can't compare to her in flattering horses. The old lady of the Jia family raised a good granddaughter!If it wasn't for this situation, Princess Nanan wouldn't mind at all accepting Tanchun as her daughter sincerely.

Looking carefully at Tanchun again, Princess Nan'an sighed in her heart, it's a pity that this girl was not born in the womb of the head wife, she was just a concubine.

Seeing Tanchun's toughness, Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Zhang were both surprised and delighted, "Concubine Nan'an and Princess Nan'an, please come back! Our Jia family temple is too small to accommodate you two great Buddhas!"

"Come here! See off guests!!"

Without waiting for the maid and mother-in-law to chase her away, Princess Nan'an forcibly supported Princess Nan'an and left.

She has done everything that can be done, and in this case, she can only resign herself to fate.

"Third sister is really amazing!" Xichun said with admiration, even though she couldn't understand a lot of what she said just now, she could clearly see the scene of Tanchun throwing the jade bracelet.

"Yes! My sister has done a good job. Then Princess Nan'an and Princess Nan'an probably don't dare to plot against my sister anymore." Jia Shan then praised.The Nan'an County Prince's Mansion did so many things just to redeem the Nan'an County King safely. Now that Tanchun happened, the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion had to consider the safety of the Nan'an County King if they wanted her to marry her instead.

Tanchun bowed her head in embarrassment. What she did just now didn't have such a long-term thinking, it was just a thought.One must know that she is nicknamed "Rose Flower" in the mansion, and roses always have thorns, she just wanted to take this opportunity to stab Nan'an Concubine and Nan'an Princess.

"Third Miss, come to Auntie." Little Zhang hugged Tanchun lovingly.

"He's a good boy, he didn't disgrace your third uncle!" Shi Shi set the tone.

Thinking of Tanchun's past actions, she couldn't help but nodded.

This girl can see clearly, she can be sure, she can say it, she can do it, she is a talented person, and she can be called a "min".

Thinking this way in his heart, Shi Shi decided to wait for this matter and work hard with Xiao Zhang to find a good husband-in-law for Tanchun in the capital.
