The King of Beijing in the Red Mansion

Shui Rong nodded slightly. Although the beauty in front of him was beautiful, Shui Rong, who had seen the world, would not lose his composure. He glanced at her and said calmly, "Miss, if you have something to say, just say it."

He didn't believe that this pinch of red was really for the purpose of thanking him in person.

Yi Nianhong looked calm upon hearing this. She looked at Shui Rong with cold eyes and said in a clear voice, "Sir, I want to ask about Master Xue's condition. I wonder if he is in any trouble?"

Shui Rong's hand holding the wine cup couldn't help but tremble. He never expected that Yi Nianhong would actually ask about Xue Pan's situation. Could it be a scene where the hero saves the beauty and the beauty falls in love with him?

If this is true, then Xue Da Nao has not lost out this time!

Thinking of this, Shui Rong looked at Yi Nian Hong and said in an inexplicable tone: "You are thoughtful."

Regardless of whether it was as Shui Rong guessed, the mere fact that she asked about Xue Pan's recent situation proved that she was not an ungrateful person. After all, Xue Pan had committed a serious crime because of her.

Yi Nianhong pursed her lips, lowered her eyes and said: "After all, Master Xue was punished because of me."

Shui Rong didn't say much after hearing this, and said in a clear voice: "Xue Pan has returned home, and he is fine now, you don't have to worry."

Hearing this, Yi Nianhong couldn't help but relax. If Xue Pan had any accident because of this, how could she feel at peace with her conscience? Even though Shui Rong had said that Xue Pan would be fine, she couldn't stop worrying.

After a pause, Yi Nianhong bowed again and said, "Thanks to you, sir, this time, I will be at ease in Heaven on Earth and pay you back as soon as possible."

Shui Rong nodded upon hearing this. He had paid some of the money for Nianhong's redemption. Even if she didn't say it, Shui Rong was planning to do so. Now that he had expressed his stance, he saved himself a lot of trouble.

Waving his hand, Shui Rong said, "Alright, young lady, go back first. Yue Jiao and I have something to discuss."

When Yi Nianhong heard this, a faint rouge appeared on her beautiful jade cheeks. What could a man and a woman alone discuss in the room? She still remembered the graceful voice she heard outside the room.

After a pause, she pinched the red ribbon, bowed, and left with somewhat soft steps.

After the people left, Du Yuejiao glared at Shui Rong with her beautiful eyes and said in an annoyed tone, "Master, you are such a fool. You are making me be laughed at by my sister."

Shui Rong looked up, chuckled, stood up and said, "It's getting late, I should go back."

Du Yuejiao looked at the young man who stood up, her face slightly surprised, and said in a clear voice: "Didn't the boss say that he had something to discuss with me? Why are you leaving now?"

The boss only comes once in a while, and after finally getting someone here, he just leaves without even saying hello?

Shui Rong walked up to the beautiful lady and said with a smile, "This matter is nothing, it will be the same another day.

Hearing this, Du Yuejiao bit her lips lightly, her bright eyes full of autumn water, containing deep resentment, she said softly: "Then I will wait for the master to come back."

Shui Rong chuckled, reached out his hand to lift the beauty's chin, leaned over and kissed the peach petals.

Soon, Shui Rong gently pressed the beauty's head and said softly, "I know what you're thinking. Be quick, it's really getting late."

Du Yuejiao's cheeks were slightly drunk when she heard this, and she spat softly, this man's mind is getting worse and worse.

Rongguo Mansion, Northwest Courtyard, Sister Feng's courtyard.

Sister Feng saw Jia Lian walking in with a happy look on his face, leaning against the door with her graceful body, and said unhappily, "Oh, Second Master Lian's face is so rosy, where are you going to have fun?"

Jia Lian couldn't help but frown when he heard Sister Feng's sarcastic words, but he knew his wife's strengths and weaknesses very well, so he didn't argue too much. He took the towel handed to him by Ping'er, wiped his hands, and said, "I was doing errands outside today and happened to meet the prince."

It was one thing to meet her, but Jia Lian would not be so foolish as to tell where he met her.

The jealousy of a woman made Feng Jieer lose her usual shrewdness. She thought this was Jia Lian's excuse and said in a tut-tut voice, "My lord, which lord do you have such good fortune?"

Jia Lian rolled his eyes at him in annoyance and said, "Which other prince is it? It's naturally the Prince of Beijing County."

Feng Jieer was slightly surprised when she heard this, but she regained her composure in a moment and said calmly, "He's not close to us, so it doesn't matter if we meet. What's so strange about that?"

Although Shui Rong was the son-in-law of the Duke of Rong's Mansion, he was from the second branch and had basically no contact with the first branch. Even though she often stayed at Lady Wang's place, they only had a few interactions.

Jia Lian chuckled and said, "You guessed wrong this time. The prince said that if he has any business opportunities in the future, he will invite me."

"Oh"

Sister Feng's eyes lit up slightly, she stepped forward and asked, "If this good thing happens, the prince will ignore Baoyu and come to take care of you, so don't fool me."

Jia Lian laughed and said, "Why should I tease you? This is what the prince promised himself."

After hearing this, Sister Feng's eyes became brighter. If she did business with Prince Beijing's Palace, it would definitely not be a bad idea.

Chapter 153 Yuanchun: Everyone is pointing at her belly!

Time flies, and it is early summer in the blink of an eye.

The renovation of the East Courtyard of Prince Beijing's Mansion has been basically completed. "Feng Yiting" and "Qiu Shuang Zhai" have welcomed their owners. As for Keqing, she has also moved out of the warm room in the suite and moved into "Tian Xiang Tower".

Regarding the original work, Shui Rong holds the attitude of restoration.

Inside Ning'an Hall.

The women in the harem had plenty of free time. Concubine Beijing, Yuanchun, Keqing, Tanchun and Xiangyun gathered together and played dominoes as usual for entertainment.

As the weather warmed up, everyone changed into light gauze clothes. The Dowager Concubine Beijing wore a bright red silk skirt with a lotus-colored gauze belt around her waist and brilliant embroidery. Yuanchun wore a crimson long skirt embroidered with rich peonies and a water-green silk tied around her waist, looking dignified and elegant. Keqing wore a tube top embroidered with light pink lotus flowers and a floor-length skirt with hundreds of flowers tied around her waist, looking charming and attractive. Tanchun wore a green dress, a green pomegranate skirt, and a green gauze dress on the outside, looking pretty and lovely. Xiangyun wore a red pomegranate skirt with a pink silk ribbon on it, looking petite and exquisite.

Each of them has his own style, and with the beautiful girls standing behind them, the hall is beautiful and dazzling.

Concubine Beijing touched the dominoes, looked at Yuanchun, and said softly: "Brother Rong, my daughter-in-law, has the nunnery been built?"

The construction of the nunnery was an extremely important matter for Princess Beijing, who advocated worshiping Buddha. Therefore, she specially sent someone to inform Yuanchun when the east courtyard was being repaired. Now that the repairs of the east courtyard are almost complete, there must be no mistakes in the nunnery. .

Yuanchun nodded her head and said, "Mother, the nunnery has already been built. We have hired ten nuns and Taoist nuns, and even have twenty new Taoist robes. But mother knows that the person who manages the nunnery must not be casual, so your daughter-in-law sent people to look for one, but they haven't found one yet."

After hearing this, Concubine Beijing looked at Yuanchun with more and more satisfaction. On the one hand, Yuanchun kept in mind what she had informed her and did not do anything perfunctory. On the other hand, Yuanchun's strict attitude towards the nunnery also showed that she was also a respectful Buddhist.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had a common "interest", so their relationship would naturally become much closer. So Concubine Beijing praised: "In the future, with you in charge of the palace, I can enjoy my life with peace of mind."

Yuanchun was delighted to hear this. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has always been a difficult problem. After marrying into their husband's family, many daughters have to follow the rules in front of their mother-in-law, visiting her every morning and evening. Once they make the slightest mistake, they will be bullied by their mother-in-law. If they meet an unreasonable mother-in-law who makes trouble for no reason, it will be even more miserable.

Fortunately, Yuanchun has been loved by her husband since she married into the palace. Not only was she given the power to manage the palace, but she was also secretly communicated with and told some of the preferences of the Concubine Beijing, so Yuanchun was able to handle the situation with ease.

But even though Yuanchun was happy, she did not get complacent about it. She said modestly, "The affairs in the mansion are complicated, and I often feel overwhelmed. Mother is experienced, and I still hope that she can give me more advice."

Keqing and Tanchun, who were sitting nearby, all looked at Yuanchun with secret admiration in their hearts. Having such a sentence, on the one hand, showed respect for the Dowager Concubine Beijing, and on the other hand, even if they accidentally violated the Dowager Concubine Beijing's taboos when handling the affairs of the palace in the future, it would just be because they were unable to do it, and they could just let the Dowager Concubine Beijing give them instructions, which would not cause displeasure.

I have to say, this is the mistress of Prince Beijing’s Mansion.

The Dowager Concubine Beijing naturally understood this. She chuckled and said nothing more. After all, Yuanchun would be in charge of all the affairs of the Prince Beijing's Mansion sooner or later. As long as she was filial and sensible, other things would not be a problem.

At this time, Rong Mama came forward and said, "Speaking of this host, I know that there is a nun in the "Muni Temple" outside the west gate. I heard that she is very proficient in Buddhism, proficient in various Buddhist scriptures, and is also very good at performing innate divine numbers."

Hearing this, Concubine Beijing became interested and murmured, "It's rare to have such a strange person."

Yuanchun was also a Buddhist, so she became interested and said in a clear voice, "Since Rong Mama knows, please help her and invite the person over."

Seeing the princess being so polite, Rong Mama bowed her head and said with a smile, "Oh, princess, if you have anything to tell me, please tell me. This is embarrassing me."

Yuanchun didn't care when she heard this. Although the Rong Mama in front of her was a servant, she was a person close to the Beijing Dowager Concubine. Not to mention that she was a senior mama, she had to treat her politely even if she was a cat or dog around the Beijing Dowager Concubine.

Those who think they are the Princess of Beijing and look down on others may suffer in the future. In the imperial palace, there are many self-righteous people who were eventually sent away by the people they looked down upon.

Yuanchun smiled and said, "The prince has already told me that Rong Mama is an elder in the mansion, and he told me to treat her with respect. If the prince knows that I am not respectful to Mama, he will beat me."

Keqing raised her moist willow eyes and glanced at Yuanchun. Everyone in the palace knew that the prince and the princess were in perfect harmony, so how could they hit the princess? This was just a joke. If they really wanted to hit her,

Thinking of this, Keqing couldn't help but lower her eyes and look, her delicate jade cheeks turned a little more colorful. The prince really knew how to beat people. It was possible that the princess had been beaten several times without them knowing, otherwise how could the princess have said this?

Does this mean we are both wanderers in this world?

Seeing the princess's kind attitude and hearing that it was the prince's order, Rong Mama was even more delighted and quickly responded, "The princess has ordered it. I will go to the Muni Courtyard to invite someone tomorrow."

Seeing this, Concubine Beijing became more and more satisfied. This daughter-in-law is not only dignified and virtuous, but also very good at dealing with people.

Pursing her lips, Concubine Beijing raised her eyes to look at Yuanchun and said softly, "Brother Rong, my daughter-in-law, you don't have to worry too much about the affairs of the mansion. Let Keqing and the third girl take care of them."

Keqing has also started to help Yuanchun deal with the affairs of the palace recently, so Concubine Beijing did not have any reservations.

Yuanchun's eyes moved slightly when she heard this. She guessed that this was the concubine hinting that she should be fair to Keqing, so she responded, "Don't worry, mother. Sister Qin is very thoughtful. With her help, your daughter-in-law can be more relaxed."

In the original novel, Qin Keqing was highly praised after marrying into the Ningguo Mansion. This shows that she is also a person who is good at managing the rear house, so her ability is naturally not a problem.

Upon hearing this, Princess Beijing knew that Yuan Chun had misunderstood what she meant. She looked at Yuan Chun's abdomen hidden under the case and said in a clear voice: "You are the mistress of the palace, so you have to take a broader view. The most urgent matters are It’s clear.”

Yuanchun frowned when she heard this. What had she done that was not in line with Concubine Beijing's wishes?

While she was calculating in her heart, Yuanchun looked down in the direction of Concubine Beijing's gaze, her starry eyes sparkled, and she suddenly understood, her pretty cheeks flushed, the most urgent matter in the palace was to expand the family.

Yuanchun, who understood the situation, stroked her belly with her hand, bit her red lips and said, "My daughter-in-law knows."

She has been married into the palace for some time, and her husband is a hardworking man. However, her belly is not moving at all. The palace has few people, and everyone is pointing fingers at her belly!

Seeing this, Concubine Beijing nodded slightly. She didn't know when she would be able to hold her grandson.

Chapter 154: Are you talking human words?

Tianxiang Tower.

On the embroidered couch with curtains all around, Keqing lay on the brocade mattress with her delicate body, her graceful figure fully revealed. She supported her chin with both hands, staring at the booklet spread on it, her light red embroidered shoes gently circling the edge of the couch, making her look relaxed and comfortable.

Shuangjiang walked in and saw his girl's disheveled appearance. He couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled, and said softly: "Girl, I have read that book so many times, and you haven't seen enough yet."

As Keqing's personal maid, she knew that her young lady had almost torn to pieces the books sent by the Concubine Dowager. She would just glance at them casually occasionally, and now she remembered most of them. She must have memorized them by heart. She didn't expect that she was still studying them. Could she be addicted to them?

Hmm. Thinking about it, it does seem impressive.

Keqing's eyebrows twitched slightly, and she glanced at him in anger. She flipped through the book with her index finger and spat in annoyance, "What nonsense are you talking about, you silly girl? This is the account book of the shop. Let me take a closer look at it from my sister."

Now that she has started to take charge of things, she has something to do and her life doesn't seem boring anymore. Therefore, Keqing has been in a very good mood recently.

As for that book, it is said that one can learn new things by reviewing the old. If one wants to make further progress, how can one discard it like a worn-out shoe? Moreover, much of the knowledge contained in it has not been put into practice, so one must not slack off.

Thinking of this, Keqing's charming face became a little resentful again. The prince had bullied her everywhere, but she just didn't get it. However, she also knew that the prince wanted to give her a complete ceremony, so she didn't complain in her heart, but felt sweet instead.

After all, she could clearly feel the boy's impulsiveness, but she was always impressed by his perseverance.

Shuangjiang didn't know what her daughter was thinking. She thought it was a good thing that the princess let her daughter be in charge. Especially for a concubine, whether or not to be in charge was related to status, and the maids under her did not dare to neglect her.

After a pause, Shuangjiang said softly, "Then watch over the girl first. I will go and prepare some snacks so that the girl won't have an empty stomach later."

Keqing nodded slightly when she heard this. It is true that such mental work can easily lead to an empty stomach.

Frost saw this and went outside. When she reached the door, she ran into the prince and said with a smile, "The prince is here. The girl is inside!"

When Keqing, who was sitting on the embroidered couch, heard that the prince was coming, she was delighted and quickly got up and sat beside the couch. She straightened her messy light pink lotus bodice and looked out the door with eyes full of smiles.

Shui Rong, who was outside the house, looked at Shuang Jiang and said with a smile, "Go and do your thing."

Frost smiled when she heard that, and her eyes couldn't help but look into the room. This told her to go out and take care of her own things, and she wouldn't be back in a short time.

Not long after, Keqing, who was sitting on the embroidered couch, saw the gentle and jade-like figure. She looked at the young man with her bright eyes and called softly, "The prince is here."

Shui Rong saw the beauty sitting on the embroidered couch, smiled and nodded slightly, then moved to sit beside the beauty. He looked at the graceful beauty, held her delicate hand, felt it was soft and smooth, and said softly: "Let me see Ke'er."
