Return to the Red Chamber: Jia Min Xiuxian

Chapter 185 The Lin family and Prince Le are upset (1)
"By the way, there is also the incident at the annual banquet. That year, my grandmother wanted to let that girl take advantage of her mother's unpreparedness so that she could arrange for her to accuse her and our brothers and sisters of being unfilial. She has never been to Beijing for so many years. After seeing her, I even pointed out that my mother had a panacea but did not give it to the royal family, so as to trap the Lin family into injustice, and I wanted to take this opportunity to force my mother to take me to the family temple to see her, and Baoyu had already been picked up by her first. When we arrive at the family temple, if we go, I don’t know what will happen. However, she wants to take this opportunity to stain my reputation, but it is certain that she will be entangled with Baoyu.”

"It's just that she didn't expect her grandfather to be her confidant. As soon as the girl returned to Jia's mansion, she went to her grandfather's study and told her grandfather about it. Her grandfather hurriedly found her parents, and then exposed her identity." conspiracy."

"My grandfather loved my mother the most before, and after I came to Beijing, he loved me more than all the other grandchildren. Therefore, after this incident, coupled with the fact that my grandmother has the death penalty of taking advantage of the lawsuit and giving money for profit, I took advantage of the situation and directly put My grandmother gave up. In fact, my grandfather had this idea long ago, but he was only worried about affecting his mother's status in the Lin family, so he tolerated it all the time, and when my mother said that she would no longer have a mother-daughter relationship with my grandmother, I don't have to worry about it anymore. "

Daiyu is much calmer when talking about these things now.She has her fourth brother who will accompany her for the rest of her life, and she will not repeat the old ways of her previous life, just treat it as a painful nightmare!
"So that's the case. Dai'er, you have suffered. That Jia Shishi is really cruel, and he doesn't care about bloodlines at all." Yinzhen suddenly realized.It seems that the mother-in-law should not be easy on Jia's mother, right?Then he can act cheaply in the future?
The two of them spread the matter out, and there is nothing to hide from now on. Naturally, if there is something, the two of them will share it together.

Besides Jia Min, after Daiyu and Yinzhen left, she told Lin Hai about the emperor's decision, but Lin Hai fell into deep thought after hearing this.

"Ruhai, at this time in the previous life, the crown prince was quite favored. Although the eighth elder brother showed himself to be virtuous and won over the ministers, his power was immature and he was still hiding behind the eldest elder brother. It can be said that the most troublesome one is Eldest brother. At this time in the previous life, the emperor was still helping the prince to suppress the eldest brother. Now...the prince has given up on the prince so early and turned to target the fourth elder brother. Why is there such a big contrast?"

"In the previous life, the fourth elder brother came to prominence when the crown prince was abolished. At that time, the prince fell from the horse, and the emperor asked all the relatives and noble ministers to nominate the candidate for the crown prince. Almost all of them chose the eighth elder brother. Only the fourth elder brother recommended the abandoned prince at that time. In 48, the second crown prince was established, and the fourth elder brother became the king together with the third elder brother and the fifth elder brother. It's just that the third elder brother is good at writing, and the fifth elder brother has no intentions, which means that the fourth elder brother attracts more attention."

"Then the eighth elder brother was suppressed, and many ministers who recommended him were also punished. And the eldest elder brother was banned by the emperor because of his cruelty to the prince. I heard that after the prince was abolished, he said It's madness, the elder brother said to the emperor that he would kill the unfilial and unrighteous prince for the emperor, so he also fell from the horse."

"Ruhai, you said, the emperor will choose the fourth elder brother now, okay? Will the fourth elder brother be subjected to severe tests in the future? Although I know that the fourth elder brother has always been firm in heart and can endure, otherwise he would not have won Final victory."

"But that was before the emperor saw him. At that time, he was still hidden behind the crown prince. After punishing corrupt officials, directing disaster relief, and recovering treasury silver, he let the emperor know that he is unstoppable. More It is because he knows that he has people in his heart. Moreover, he didn't make friends with the ministers very much, and most of the ministers and brothers were offended because of the pursuit of the treasury arrears. Even the thirteenth elder brother was suppressed by the emperor at that time. Minister, that's why I didn't suppress the fourth elder brother."

"But now, because of Concubine Tong's relationship, the Tong family will not support princes other than the fourth elder brother. Now that our two families are married again, everyone knows that Dai'er is the most favored in our family, and now Sifu Jin Then there is no doubt about our family's position. If we don't help our son-in-law, who will we help? What's more, there is the Kong family behind us, and we have everything in terms of civil and military affairs."

"Now the emperor won the fourth elder brother because we will not oppose the fourth elder brother, and the fourth elder brother has a high status and is not as virtuous as the prince. How can you know that the fourth elder brother will not be tabooed for these reasons in the future, because the fourth elder brother Brother is too powerful and suppressed? The eighth elder brother in the previous life is a living example. What should we do then?"

After thinking about it, Jia Min always felt that the fourth elder brother had too much support behind him now, and he was afraid that he would be guarded by the emperor, or taboo, and thus vigorously suppressed. The lesson of the eighth elder brother in his previous life has always been lingering in his mind.Therefore, she is always a little worried.

"Ankang, you are overthinking. In the previous life, the eighth elder brother was suppressed by the emperor because he united with all the ministers to intimidate the emperor, making the emperor feel that the power has fallen, and his imperial power has been threatened. Furthermore, the eighth elder brother's background It's a flaw, even if he really will be a good king, the emperor will not choose him, the Qing Dynasty has always paid attention to the value of the mother and the child, but the first consideration on this issue is that the child is more valuable than the mother, The eighth prince's background is not enough. In addition, he has posed a threat to the emperor's imperial power, so he was severely suppressed by the emperor."

"As for the fourth elder brother, the power you mentioned mainly comes from our family and the Tong family. Let's not talk about the Tong family. It is known as Tong Banchao. And our family, as the general banner owner of the Eight Banners, can mobilize the Eight Banners, so to speak. The entire Eight Banners are included."

"But although our family covers the entire Eight Banners, it will never pose a threat to the emperor's imperial power. The Lin family has always been loyal to the imperial power and has never participated in the struggle for imperial power. Even now that Dai'er is married to the fourth elder brother, our family is very important to the princes. It may be a bit biased, but the allegiance to the imperial power will not change. As long as the emperor is still there, the Lin family will still be loyal to the emperor, and will never threaten the emperor because of supporting the fourth elder brother. The emperor knows this well. As for our family's support Fourth elder brother, as long as it does not threaten the imperial power, the emperor will not interfere. After all, fourth elder brother has a valuable status, good morals, and love for the people, so he is the best candidate."

"The Kong family is even more harmless. The Kong family has never participated in the struggle for imperial power. Even if they are married to our family now, they will not interfere. At most, they will not support the prince because the prince offended our family and humiliated Dai'er. Other things are not There will be any problems. I will not threaten the imperial power in order to support the fourth elder brother, so there is no need to worry. The emperor understands this."

"The emperor is a wise king. The successor he chooses should be responsible to the great Qing Dynasty, and even more so to the people of the world. He will know what is the best choice."

"But even so, it's better for us to stop walking around Si Elder Brother's place. The Lin family has always been a pure minister and will remain a pure minister in the future. As for the fact that our daughter is being bullied, we naturally don't care about it. After all, everyone knows that our family values ​​her the most. Dai'er, it's impossible to leave it alone once you get married. You can't leave it too clear, because it would be a bit self-explanatory. As for other things, as long as it doesn't involve Dai'er or her future grandson, it's better for us not to get involved. "
