The eldest son of the red mansion

Chapter 664
Besides, when Jia Ke returned to the palace, she didn't go back to the Qianqing Palace to rest, but came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Seeing this, Li Deshan hurried over and asked, "Master, which lady are you going to rest with today?"

Jia Ke shook her head, and then said, "Don't bother, I'm resting in the Hall of Mental Cultivation today."

When Li Deshan heard Jia Ke's words, he hurried out and ordered someone to tidy up Jia Ke's bedroom.

Early in the morning of the second day, Jia Ke got up early to clean up, sat in the main hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and wrote a royal order on the royal case.

"Li Gui."

As soon as Jia Ke finished speaking, Li Gui, who served Jia Ke instead of Li Deshan, came to Jia Ke in three steps and two steps, and asked with a smile on his face: "What is the master's order?"

"You go to Rongguo Mansion and take my royal order to pick Xue Baochai into the palace."

After receiving the order, Li Gui left the Hall of Mental Cultivation holding Jia Ke's royal order in both hands.

As soon as he left the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Li Gui immediately trembled, and more than a dozen eunuchs immediately surrounded him.

Li Gui was not polite to these people, and directly ordered them to pack up the guard of honor for him, and immediately went to Rongguo Mansion.

When he got to the gate of Rongguo Mansion, Li Gui didn't dare to be presumptuous here. He got off his horse and came to the gate, cupped his hands at the young man at the gate and said, "How many brothers? Go in and report to me, and say that I have the royal order of the prince." , I want to go to the inner house to see Miss Xue Baochai."

The people at the door also knew Li Gui, and when they saw him coming, they quickly nodded and bowed their heads to greet him, and immediately sent a person to report to the inside.

After a while, the old lady's order came from inside, asking Li Gui to go to the old lady's place first, and then go to deliver the order to Xue Baochai.

How could Li Gui disrespect the old lady's order, so he came down to the old lady's room under the leadership of several women.

And this is the old lady's room, where Jia Baoyu is acting like a baby with the old lady.

It turned out that his little servant girl was forcibly taken away by Jia Zheng during this period of time and placed in the study.

The old lady also knew about this matter, and Jia Zheng personally reported it to him.

Because during this period of time, Jia Baoyu became more and more fond of this young man, to the point where he was inseparable, Jia Zheng looked really shameful.

Moreover, Jia Zheng saw that Jia Ke had reached the peak of being a courtier, and he was about to face south and north, and their Jia family was also the future relatives of the emperor. Wouldn't Jia Baoyu lose the face of the future royal family by making such a fuss?

So Jia Zheng forcibly put this beautiful official in his study, just to separate them.

And since Jia Baoyu left Qiguan, it can be said that tea and food are no longer delicious, and he feels bored doing everything alone every day.

Jia Baoyu's servant, Mingyan, gave Jia Baoyu an idea to let him go to the old lady to act like a baby, and watched the old lady send a message to Jia Zheng to let Qiguan back.

Jia Baoyu thought it was reasonable, and that's how the scene just happened.

But no matter how much Jia Baoyu acted like a baby, Jia's mother didn't say yes to him.

While Jia Baoyu was making trouble, the maid outside called out, "Li Gui, please see the old lady."

Jiamu winked at Yuanyang next to her, and Yuanyang immediately called out, "Let him in."

But at this time, when the door curtain was lifted, Li Gui walked in from the outside tremblingly.

Don't look at Li Gui outside, he has become like a dog now, but he has done his best in the Rongguo Mansion, and he still has the identity of the original servant, but he dare not offend people with a little bit of identity.

As soon as Li Gui came in front of Jia Mu, he fell to his knees with a plop, kept kowtowing, and said, "The old lady is well."

Jia Mu glanced at him, and then said, "What is the matter that elder brother asked you to come?"

Li Gui didn't dare to hide anything, and hurriedly said: "Report to the old lady, the prince ordered the younger one to pick up Xue Baochai, and Miss Xue will enter the palace."

Mother Jia smiled slightly when she heard that, and it was true. Yesterday she saw that something was wrong with them, and Jia Ke gave the order only one day later. It seemed that she couldn't wait.

Before Jia Mu could express anything, Jia Baoyu, who was sitting next to her, immediately became unhappy.

"Big brother, what's the matter? It's not enough to have sister-in-law and Xiangyun, but you still have to take sister Xue into the palace. What's the reason for that?"

Li Gui knelt down below, disapproving in his heart, what is the status of the master now, even if he brought all the beauties in the world into the palace, who would dare to say a word.

But Li Gui only dared to talk about it in his heart, but he didn't dare to refute Jia Baoyu on the surface, so he could only kneel there and wait for Jia's mother's order.

And Jia Mu glanced at Jia Baoyu, and then said, "A man is a real man, three wives and four concubines are normal things, so why make a fuss about it."

After Jiamu said this, she said to the mandarin ducks standing beside her, "Go to my storeroom and fetch the pair of mandarin ducks and jade bottles."

The mandarin duck got Jia Ke's mother's order, and immediately bowed and retreated, and came in with two little maids after a while. The two little maids each held a jade bottle in their arms, engraved with the pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water. , Exquisite and unusual, it is not an ordinary thing at first glance.

Jia Mu looked at these two things, and then said to Yuanyang: "You take this thing with Li Gui, even if I give it to Bao girl, let her serve the elder brother well after she enters the palace."

Then Mother Jia waved Li Gui and the others to retreat.

After everyone withdrew, Jia Baoyu immediately rushed to Jiamu's side again, "Old lady, how can you agree? I don't know if Sister Bao agrees. Isn't this pushing her into the fire pit?"

Mother Jia really had no choice but to explain to Jia Baoyu, "How do you know he doesn't want to? When Baochai came to live in our mansion temporarily, he was just waiting for the palace to choose? Isn't it the case now? What do they want?"

This time, Jia Baoyu really had nothing to say, so he could only mutter to the side again.

Besides, Yuanyang and Li Gui came out of Jia Mu's room, Li Gui bowed his body and said to Yuanyang humbly: "Young lady, lead the way for Sister Yuanyang."

Yuanyang smiled and said nothing, in fact, she also enjoyed the humble appearance of this powerful eunuch in front of her.

So the two of them led the maidservants and eunuchs through the corridor and across the wall to a small courtyard where Aunt Xue lived.

And there was already a little maid waiting here at this door, she saw a group of people coming in front, Yuanyang walked first, followed by an unfamiliar eunuch in Yuanyang, she knew that the messenger was coming.

So a little maid rushed in to report, and the rest came to Yuanyang to salute her.

Yuanyang didn't say anything to them, just nodded and went straight into the yard. At this time, Aunt Xue brought Xue Pan to the door.

Seeing the mandarin duck, Aunt Xue immediately smiled and said, "You chief executive, why do you have time to come to our place today?"

Yuanyang smiled, thinking in her heart, isn't this asking knowingly?
"I came to congratulate Miss Xue on behalf of the old lady."

Aunt Xue and Xue Pan knew the matter was over as soon as they heard this, and hurriedly let Yuanyang and Li Gui into the main hall.

Only then did Li Gui take out the edict from his bosom.

Aunt Xue waited to see Li Gui's appearance, and quickly knelt down together, Yuanyang also knelt on the ground.

Li Gui opened the decree and read: "Decree from the Regent: Xue Baochai is outstanding in appearance and good in character. Xue Baochai is specially appointed as the side concubine of the Regent."

After Li Gui finished reading, he delivered the decree in his hand to Aunt Xue, and then stepped forward to help Aunt Xue up.

Aunt Xue held the decree and kept trembling. It was their greatest hope over the years. When they came to Beijing, they hoped that Xue Baochai would enter the palace. In the end, it turned yellow, and now they can finally get their wish.

And this is the mandarin duck who also came forward, ordered the two maids behind him to present the pair of jade bottles, and then said: "The old lady ordered me to send two jade bottles, and asked me to send a message to Miss Bao, and let her enter the palace. Take good care of His Highness King Yan."

The next thing went much smoother. First, Jia's mansion prepared the sedan chair, and then Aunt Xue and Aunt Xue delivered Xue Baochai to the sedan chair.

Xue Baochai was thinking about entering the palace before getting into the sedan chair. Although it was close at hand, it was still far away.

Thinking of this, Xue Baochai burst into tears, clutching Aunt Xue with both hands, a little reluctant to let go.

When Aunt Xue saw Xue Baochai like this, her heart was sore. She used to only think that after Xue Baochai entered the palace, their Xue family would be able to follow suit.

Only Xue Pan, who was standing aside, urged heartlessly, and Xue Baochai saw that it was getting late, so he could only get on the sedan chair with tears in his eyes.

Then, under the leadership of Li Gui, the sedan chair was carried into the palace.

Although Xue Baochai was in the sedan chair, she was not completely satisfied in her heart, because when Jia Ke married Qin Keqing, she had heard of the scene at that time. Afterwards, Nashi Xiangyun also held a big banquet for his concubine, but when he came to her It was a bridal sedan chair carried to the palace without any publicity, it would be a lie to say that she was not angry.

But very good, the goal has finally been achieved, and it is not certain what will happen in the future.

Besides, the sedan chair went directly through the Qianqing Gate along the Wuchao Gate, and arrived at the gate of the Qianqing Palace. At this time, Qin Keqing was already waiting in the main hall.

As soon as the sedan chair stopped at the door, several court ladies stepped forward and opened the curtain of the sedan chair, helping Xue Baochai out of the sedan chair.

Xue Baochai came out of the sedan chair, looked up and looked around, only to see towering palaces all around, at the gate of Qianqing Palace, the maids and eunuchs stood there silently, waiting for the master inside to deliver a message.

At this time, Xue Baochai only felt refreshed, and the depression he felt when he just left the house had been forgotten.

Although I am overwhelmed by Qin Keqing and Shi Xiangyun now, it is still unknown who will win the battle in the future.

And at this time, a middle-aged nanny came out of Qianqing Palace, she came to Xue Baochai slowly, looked her up and down, and then a vigilant light flashed in her eyes.

"Your Majesty ordered your servants to take Concubine Xue to the palace to meet her."
