The King of Beijing in the Red Mansion

In the original novel, when Xiaohong poured a cup of tea for Baoyu for the first time, Baoyu didn't recognize her.

What a first-class maid does is to serve her master closely in daily life, which is decent and promising.

This time Xiao Hong was able to serve Shui Rong because she was away from home and the conditions were relatively "shabby". Tanchun accompanied Daiyu to carry the coffin back to Suzhou, but Shui Rong had no one around to serve him, so he let Xiao Hong and Liu Wuer pick up the leak.

Otherwise, these two people would have no chance to serve him closely.

Xiaohong was already very satisfied with being promoted to a first-class maid. You must know that there are countless maids who were dispossessed by their masters and were nameless and insignificant. Don't think that serving the young prince will make you rise to the top in one step. Just be satisfied with the benefits.

It is good to please the Lord to be positive, but you must be very sober and calm.

Shui Rong nodded slightly, but didn't say anything else. He liked people with a clear mind and not to be arrogant. He straightened his sleeves and robes and walked away.

At this time, Liu Wu'er raised his eyes and stared at Xiao Hong, with a look of resentment in his eyebrows. What a good guy, his hard work was missed by this little hoof. It was really in vain.

This matter is like someone who has worked so hard to research the results, but at the last moment someone else signed them and published them. All the fame, fame and wealth are owned by others. You can imagine the depression in your heart.

Seeing this, Xiaohong's pretty face showed a bit of unnaturalness. She pulled the corner of her mouth and stepped forward to comfort her: "Hao Wu'er, you also know that the prince only allows you to serve by his side. It can be seen that the prince loves you more than me." You and I are just a first-class maid, and you will be Aunt Liu from now on."

Hearing this, Liu Wuer's jade cheeks warmed up slightly, and he spat: "Don't make fun of me and say, what aunt? I don't have this blessing."

It is true that, as Xiaohong said, the prince likes her more than Xiaohong, but that's just it. There are so many sisters in the prince's palace, not to mention Baoqin, Qiufang, Yingluo, Xiangling, Qingwen, Which one is not better than her? None of them have the status of aunt, let alone herself.

Now, I am just a pastime for the prince who has no one to use.

Thinking of this, Liu Wuer's beautiful face dimmed, and she couldn't help but cough again.

Xiao Hong didn't take it seriously when she saw this, and stared at Wu'er's face and figure, which looked like a queen, knowing that the prince would not turn a blind eye.

If it were you, you would have permission. Taking advantage of this great opportunity, you should take the initiative to climb onto the prince's bed and establish a deeper friendship. With the prince's temperament, you will not treat others badly or suffer any loss.

When you are a maid, you have to please the Lord.

Wu'er poured a cup of tea and sipped it. He suddenly felt a little better. After thinking about it, he poured another cup and handed it to Xiaohong, saying, "Drink some tea to moisten it."

Xiao Hong stared at Wu'er, feeling a little weird. She was still drinking, her intestines were full.

Shui Rong walked along the corridor and came to the flower hall. He saw Jia Yucun standing there and asked directly: "How are things going?"

Jia Yucun was also unambiguous. He immediately handed over a copy of the case document and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I have investigated everything clearly. Please take a look at it."

Shui Rong raised his brows slightly when he heard this, and looked at Jia Yucun with a bit of admiration in his eyes. Within a few moments, he found out the reason. Jia Yucun's talent was indeed superior.

Jia Yucun saw Shui Rong's admiring expression, and couldn't help but feel proud. After capturing Zhen Tiren and Jia Daizhai, Jia Yucun interrogated them alone. No, he should have asked about the reasons, and captured them on the spot with reason and emotion.

In fact, this is also because they are facing the Zhen family and the Jia family, especially Jia Daizhai. The grain boats for disaster relief have been detained. The words even hinted that the prince would not touch the Jia family because of the in-law relationship, but the matter needed an explanation, which made Jia Daizhai relax.

After all, those who seek advantages and avoid disadvantages will die as Taoist friends rather than as poor Taoists.

Shui Rong took the case document and started to read it. When he saw the name Jia Zhen of Duke Ning Guo's name on it, he felt slightly happy.

Sure enough, if you want to use the court's disaster relief food, there must be someone in the capital to take care of it. Not to mention that the Zhen and Jia families are old relatives and family friends. In the original work, they can entrust the family with financial gifts. In addition, Zhen and Jia at this time The family is married to Ning Guo Gongfu, and the relationship is even closer. Such obscure matters must be conspired with Ning Guo Gongfu.

Don't think that the Jia family is getting weaker and weaker and has no connections to use.

In the original work, Jia Zheng, the second eldest son of Duke Rongguo, could easily promote Jia Yucun to be the prefect of Jinling. Not to mention that Jia Zhen, as a successor to the Duke of Ningguo, had extraordinary connections and was able to use the food for disaster relief. It's easy to move your hands and feet.

The power of the Jia family is beyond your imagination, not to mention that the Jia family is now married to the Prince of Beijing, and their power is incomparable.

After a deep groan, Shui Rong said, "I will submit this matter to His Majesty, so Jiafu Yin can worry about the disaster relief."

Jia Yucun looked startled when he heard this, and felt a sense of surprise in his heart. Could this petition to His Majesty be pursued to the end?

Thinking about this, Jia Yucun cautiously asked: "What about the second master of the Zhen family and Mrs. Jia?"

Shui Rong glanced at Jia Yucun and said calmly: "I will go to jail and wait for the Lord's judgment."

They are just some clowns, and they expect him to cover for them, which is nonsense.

Jia Yucun was shocked. Sure enough, the prince was planning to pursue the matter to the end. Although he hinted verbally in front of Jia Daizhai, he also thought so in his heart.

According to the in-laws of the Prince of Beijing and the Jia family, it was most likely a small punishment but a big warning, so he "invited" the Zhen family and the Jia family to enter the Jinling government office, and they were not even imprisoned, but detained. In the guest room, act like a guest, so as not to ruin the reputation of the two families.

Unexpectedly, the prince wanted to kill his relatives out of justice.

After a few moments of silence, Jia Yucun responded: "I respect your order."

Jia Yucun didn't care about the Zhen family and the Jia family. What he cared about was Shui Rong's attitude. Since Shui Rong wanted to pursue the matter to the end, he had nothing to say and just did as he was told.

Beijing, Qianqing Palace.

In the solemn palace, Emperor Yongkang sat in front of the royal desk in an apricot-yellow robe. His deep eyes stared at King Yong who was standing respectfully below. Zhanran said: "Liu'er, it is a happy event for Prince Yong to have a daughter. I will let the Ministry of Internal Affairs Give the reward."

King Yong heard the words and respectfully accepted the promise, with a spring breeze-like joy in his brows.

The presence of a queen in Prince Yong's palace would put an end to some gossip and eliminate the disadvantage in winning the direct heir. Coupled with the reward from Emperor Yongkang, how could the attitude expressed by him not make Prince Yong happy.

Zhang Pan'er has been pregnant for nearly two months now. There is a slight bulge in her belly. You can't see it without looking carefully. From the previous vomiting, she couldn't even drink water, but now she is eating normally. The heirs of the Guan Imperial Family must report to the clan's records.

As for worrying about someone stumbling upon her, he would arrange for someone he could trust to take care of her carefully. It wouldn't be a problem, but he didn't believe that the scheming and poisonous woman would blatantly stumbling upon her.

Suddenly, a chamberlain walked in lightly and said in a tight voice: "Your Majesty, Prince Beijing has an urgent report to submit."

When Emperor Yongkang heard this, his stern brows furrowed slightly. According to his understanding of Shui Rong, he would not report anything if nothing happened, let alone an urgent report. It must be that something went wrong in the disaster relief.

Sometimes I think about it, Emperor Yongkang really doesn't want to receive a memorial about Shui Rong. This guy has always kept to himself, and he will come when he wants.

When King Yong in the hall heard the name of Prince Beijing, he was also concerned. He was "sincere" towards this sixteenth uncle, not to mention that he was the biological father of his "son", so how could he turn a blind eye.

However, King Yong also knew that the importance was relieved. Even as a prince, he could not interfere with this political matter at will, so he suppressed his curiosity and said respectfully: "Father, I will leave."

Emperor Yongkang nodded lightly, without saying anything. He took the emergency report and started to read it. When he saw the contents of the emergency report, his face was gloomy. Suddenly, the hall was filled with an icy feeling, which made all the palace maids in prison... His mind tightened and he stood solemnly.

With a "pop" sound, Emperor Yongkang slapped the imperial case angrily, and the tea cup on the case fell to the ground with a shock, and shouted: "What a great Duke of Ningguo, come here, tell the commander of the Jinyi Guards."

King Yong, who was stepping out of Qianqing Palace, was startled when he heard this angry shout. He suddenly felt something bad. His father only activated Longwei after receiving an urgent report from his sixteenth uncle, and mentioned the Ningguo Duke's mansion in a good manner. There is also news about Jin Yiwei. Could it be that something went wrong in Ning Guogong's mansion?

My goodness, the Ningguo Mansion and Uncle Sixteen are related by marriage, what on earth went on?

Thinking of this, Prince Yong became curious and was not in a hurry to leave for the moment.

Chapter 332 Zhen Hua: Nothing is as important as her having a baby

Kunning Palace, in the dormitory.

The queen of Zhou, who has a towering bun and a lotus-like face, stands on a high platform. She wears a red skirt embroidered with peonies and has graceful curves. She is long and tall, smooth and gorgeous.

At this moment, the beauty's beautiful eyes were staring at the palace people in the hall. Her gorgeous and dignified jade face was covered with a bit of frost, and she said in a cold tone: "Is this true?"

The palace attendant said in a trembling voice: "My dear, Princess Yong is indeed pregnant, and your Majesty asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send her a reward."

Hearing this, the beauty frowned. She was originally dignified and elegant, and she would never be so rude, but the news she heard now made Zhou Hou unable to calm down.

You need to know that Yong Wang is a man who has damaged his foundation. He is not good at sexual intercourse, so how can he have children? It is really unbelievable.

But if His Majesty continues to reward her, it is definitely true that Princess Yong is happy.

Could it be that King Yong found a miraculous doctor who could revive dead people, flesh and white bones, and regenerate broken limbs? No, the doctor had given heavy medicine at the beginning, and it was just short of being cured. It was difficult for gods to save him, so how could he possibly be able to cure it well?

Thinking of this, Hou Zhou seemed to have grasped something, as if he was enlightened, and secretly thought: "Could it be borrowed seeds? Is King Yong so bold?"

It is nothing more than Zhou Hou's speculation that the only way for a person who has damaged his foundation to plant seeds is to borrow seeds. After all, although this kind of thing rarely happens among the concubines competing for favor in the harem, it is not unheard of. .

Thinking of this, Empress Zhou's beautiful eyes flashed with a stern look. Not to mention the reason, the first thing is to find out the matter. If Yong Wang's majestic style is still there, now he has an heir, which is equivalent to regaining the right to fight for the crown prince. Not defensive.

But if King Yong is still sluggish, it is most likely that he is borrowing the seeds of his actions and trying to reverse the destiny of Heaven. If His Majesty finds out about this, it will undoubtedly be a fatal blow to King Yong, and King Yong will never be able to turn around again.

Just as Hou Zhou was thinking about countermeasures, another palace official came in hurriedly and said, "Your Majesty, your Majesty has sent word that the commander of the Jinyi Guards has entered the palace. They are going to Ningguo Duke's Mansion to fetch someone."

Zhou Hou was startled when he heard this and asked: "Who to take?"

The palace man reported, "I don't even know about this."

Hou Zhou frowned when he heard this, but he didn't say anything. After all, he was just a palace servant, and it was impossible to find out everything clearly. However, Hou Zhou understood that no matter who he went to Ning Guo Gong's Mansion, as long as he took it from Ning Guo Gong's Mansion, If you marry someone, it represents His Majesty’s attitude.

Your Majesty is trying to suppress the Beijing Palace?

Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall.

Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue and Wang Xifeng gathered together to wipe the dominoes.

There was only one rule when playing dominoes in the Jia family. Mother Jia was a master of dominoes, and she made a killing. After a while, a small mountain of silver was piled up in front of her, which made the old lady even more happy.

Mother Jia was very interested. She looked at Aunt Xue on one side and suddenly asked: "Auntie, have you set up the house in the capital?"

Aunt Xue replied: "It's ready. It's a three-story house next to the palace."

As she said that, there was a hint of affection in Aunt Xue's voice as she said, "There are only me and Brother Pan in our family. We originally planned to build a house with a second courtyard. We don't need such a big ostentation. The princess persuaded me that the Xue family is also a respectable family and should have some dignity, but the small family is so arrogant that people can look down upon it. Hey, when I heard it, I felt that it made sense. After all, she is a princess, and her knowledge is different from ours. "

Jia Mu smiled and said nothing when she heard this. As Yuan Chun said, no matter whether your family has a small population or not, as a wealthy family, you must show your dignity. If you don't, it will make people laugh.

There is no way, in this world, decency and pomp are very important. Once you look lonely, outsiders will have to pass on the family's poor fortune. Apart from other things, the Jia family cannot make ends meet, but they have not thought about increasing revenue and cutting expenditure. It is not about respectability and pomp. .

Sister Feng's eyes turned slightly, she took over the conversation with a smile, and said, "That's right. If I can just scratch the surface of your eldest sister's unparalleled magnanimity and knowledge, it will be enough."

Sister Feng is the best at flattering people.

Sure enough, not talking about Jia Mu, but just Mrs. Wang, she was so proud when someone praised her eldest daughter that she couldn't suppress the upward curve of her mouth.

However, Mrs. Wang still became modest and spat at Sister Feng: "It's hard to find a second-hand house in the Wang's Mansion. Maybe it's just for convenience. Little Feng, don't flatter me."

It’s okay for others to praise you, but for a mother to praise her, that’s just showing off.

Sister Feng understood clearly after hearing this. The saying "birds of a feather flock together, people sort themselves into groups" also applies to the houses they live in. Rich people such as "Tomson Yipin" live in them, and the government agencies also have their own communities, and everyone lives in them. The people within the agency, those near the Prince's Palace in Beijing, are naturally among the most powerful and powerful people in the capital.

With a playful "Hey", Sister Feng looked at Aunt Xue. There was a smile in Danfeng's eyes under the willow eyebrows, and she turned to ask: "When does the aunt plan to move here?"

Aunt Xue laughed when she heard this and said, "The princess mentioned this and asked us to move there at the end of the year, just so we can celebrate the New Year together. It's lively and auspicious."

Speaking of this, Aunt Xue was very happy. The palace invited the Xue family to celebrate the New Year together. What is this? It was just treating them as a family. Shui Rong originally proposed it, but now it is more appropriate to say that it was Yuan Chun who proposed it.

Sister Feng obviously understood the meaning, and a flash of envy flashed in Feng's eyes. A good girl born to the Xue family helped the Xue family.

But it was worth it. That precious girl had plump muscles and bones, and acted steadily and peacefully. She was highly praised by everyone in the house. How could such a lovely girl not be loved?

Thinking of this, Sister Feng felt sad. Other men were always fond of their wives, so why did she seem to have a grudge against her?

Mother Jia glanced at Aunt Xue, but she didn't know what to feel in her heart. She said quietly: "My aunt has gone to join in the fun, and our place seems deserted."

This is true. Since Yuanchun married into the Beijing Prince's Mansion, he took the three girls with him. Afterwards, he even recognized Yun Yatou as his god sister. I think he also spent the Chinese New Year in the Prince's Mansion. Later, Bao Yatou was favored by the prince again. In addition to the original Outside Yuanchun in the palace, three people left at once, how could it not look deserted?

Hearing this, Aunt Xue, Mrs. Wang, and Sister Feng were unable to speak. Among them, Aunt Xue was the most embarrassed.

She didn't care when she was living there, but now she was moving away, but she started to complain. This made Aunt Xue, an "outsider", how to answer the question.

Not only them, but also Baoyu, Yingchun and Xichun behind the screen were confused when they heard Jia Mu's words.
