The Promotion of Yuanchun in the Red Chamber

The concubine is angry, and the son is angry.After all, the imperial concubine was restrained, and the news was delayed a little bit.

To use an inappropriate analogy, that is, "read three hundred Tang poems by heart, even if you can't compose poems, you can chant." Know how to read people's eyes!

The concubine Ling spent half of her life in the palace... Even if she was so passionate and acted unwisely at the time, she has already come to recall it now.

There is no need to elaborate on the intentions of those who instigated her, but the news that Beauty Shi became a concubine probably came from the Holy Majesty, which means that all of this... the one standing behind her is the Holy Majesty.

At this moment, she really wanted to call her son and scold him face to face: In order to vent my anger, what are you doing to a woman like that? !Your seventh brother's resentment towards you is secondary, because he is afraid that this move will leave an impression of your father being unworthy!

It must be known that the princes of this dynasty will be granted titles before they get married, and this starting point is very important: not all princes can get the prince at the beginning.That is to say, once the start is a bit short, it will be very difficult to catch up afterward....

The situation of her son is not quite the same as hers. Although she was caught in the trap, the Holy Majesty punished her immediately: The Holy Majesty will not punish someone twice for one thing, but she is not punished for making a mistake, so she has to consider whether the Holy Majesty wants to save more money. Together with a big fine.

The more you think about it, the more anxious your concubine is!

In fact, Ling concubine, like most women, felt that her husband was not as reliable as her mother's family, especially her husband was still a saint...but no matter how much her mother's family could count on, how could it compare to her own son?

Thinking that he would not be able to leave the palace for at least two more months, and that his son would not meet for marriage in two or three years, the concubine suppressed her anger, struggled to get up and suddenly poured down a bowl of bitter and sour concoction. Still full of vigor, he summoned his confidant female officer, "Keep a close eye on Shisi, it's fine if he wants to deal with men, but remember to stop him from letting his mind go to other people's inner houses!"

The female officer saw that the concubine's expression was not right, but she had no choice but to take the order and leave first.

The concubine ordered her to lie down and go to sleep, but at night she had a fever, to the point of talking nonsense.The imperial physician came to make a diagnosis and treatment, and found that the condition was really dangerous.

At the same time, Lingpin's "left neighbor", Yipin also suddenly "fainted out": this one just fainted from fright because the incident was completely revealed.

The father in the south not only used money to win Yipin's relatives, but also bought several palace servants along this line, and most of these palace attendants were working in Yipin's palace. Something taboo happened.

Yipin saw that her palace was first surrounded by eunuchs and guards, and then the stolen goods were seized, and the dowry maid was dragged away abruptly... How could she not faint?

In other words, Tai Hospital hasn't been so busy at night for many years.The experienced imperial physicians had already identified the Dao Yizhi based on the few words of the noble concubine sitting in the center: Diagnose and treat the concubine well, and as for the concubine Yi, it is fine if she does not die.

Little did she know that the imperial concubine was sitting high and high, and her heart was actually full of laughter: just as the ministers were speculating whether the concubine's natal family had caused trouble, the Holy Majesty finally revealed his true intentions after the feint shot - Yi who really fell. My concubine's own father, now the Minister of the Ministry of Officials!

The imperial concubine's natal family really doesn't share her temper with this official secretary... In fact, where is it just "not showing her temper"?The two families are both in high positions, and their stances and ways of doing things are very different. Over the years, there have been countless quarrels both openly and secretly.

Therefore, the imperial concubine was unavoidable this time, and gloated once.

But having said that, the Holy Majesty also remembered the old friendship, and took advantage of Lingbi's violent temper to use her as a gun, and then grounded her again-this is actually a kind of protection, so that Lingbi will not turn around for a while. And it got deeper and deeper.

Obviously, Yipin will no longer be able to win the mercy of the Holy Majesty: even though she thinks she has a magic weapon in her body.

After hearing the imperial physician's report, the imperial concubine laughed, "Concubine Yi is happy? It's a coincidence."

It is said that Yipin not only has a good background, but also has a good belly. She doesn't see the Holy Majesty a few times in a month, but besides the one in her belly, she also has fifteen princes and eight princesses.

If she is willing to live a peaceful life and only looks at the faces of the two children, Yipin's future may not be worse than Concubine Shu's, but it's a pity...to be too close to her natal family, and her ears are too soft.

The imperial concubine actually sympathized with her: Concubine Yi really made her natal family miserable.

The imperial concubine thought freely in her heart, but the cold sweat on the forehead of the imperial doctor who was lying on the ground fell on the floor tiles, making a rattling sound: at this time, the doctor diagnosed the happy pulse, and the colleague who specially asked for the safe pulse for Yi concubine might not be able to save his life. It's good that you don't get involved.

Although the fate of Concubine Yi was determined, the chief eunuch of Chengqian Palace still went to Qianqing Palace for this, and after a while, he brought back the meaning of the Holy Majesty: do whatever you want.

The Holy One has both sons and daughters, even though half of them died, they are not inferior to the one in Concubine Yi's belly, just seeing that Concubine Yi deliberately concealed her pregnancy, one knows that her natal family may have already prepared for it.

But at dawn, Zhao Zhizhen sent his confidants to the palace, Tongbing, and when they returned, they also brought back a message from the noble concubine, in a nutshell: Ling concubine can get out, but Yi concubine can't.

As for Liu Wei's death, the imperial concubine didn't care much about it: the situation in the court will change drastically, so why would she care about a daughter-in-law whose natal family has completely lost power and has to die.

On Zhao Zhizhen's side, however, there were mixed feelings.After all, the husband and wife have been married for more than ten years, even though the two had quarreled to the point where their faces were almost torn apart, he was not unmoved by his wife's sudden death - otherwise this person would be so ruthless!

However, this change in the court situation is bound to affect Zhao Zhizhen's future, and most of the grief is diluted by this important event: it is not only the Minister of the Ministry of Officials who fell, but also his allies and the money borrowed from the south. A large group of people promoted and wooed.

There are so many vacant seats... there are quite a few.

However, Liu Wei’s funeral was handled strictly according to the etiquette of the princess of the county, but it was not at all beautiful—how many people at the foot of the emperor really couldn’t see the real reason for the decline of Liu Wei’s natal family?

Therefore, some respectable families in Beijing naturally sent funeral ceremonies, but there were not many important people who came to express their condolences, at least none who needed to be entertained by Zhao Zhizhen and Yuan Chun.

And everyone's thoughts are more on the seats that will be vacated soon.Starting from the confinement of Yipin, what else can I not understand? !In particular, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials resigned from office sadly on the third day of the confinement of Concubine Yi...

After Zhao Zhizhen got out of the office, he called his son to the study, and sat down with him to drink tea.

This time, he also wanted to tell his son a secret, "This old gentleman is on the roster, and his position is extremely high."

There are too many names in that roster, so it is doomed that this matter will not be seen in the light, otherwise it will definitely cause turmoil in the court.When there are foreign enemies in the north and internal troubles in the south, it is absolutely impossible for the Holy One to do the thing of killing one thousand enemies and self-defeating eight hundred.

Thinking about this, Zhao Han said, "Kill one to warn others?"

Zhao Zhizhen had a long meaning, "But I don't know who it is to scare."

One sentence made both father and son silent.Who doesn't know that the First Prince is very "popular" among the clan?

Zhao Han also heard from his father's overtones that the uncle who wanted to poach the corner of his father's wall a while ago, this time he might have the heart to win over his father again...

In the officialdom, if you are a friend today, you can turn your face and deny him tomorrow. There is no other reason, it is because of the interests.

Zhao Han has already understood this truth, and he even knows that his father's hesitant appearance is because the uncle's chips are enough for his father's heart!

It is said that the uncle and the second uncle do not get along, and it is almost known to everyone.The uncle was busy putting aside his relationship with the south a few days ago, and he did not hesitate to let go of several family members, which was also due to the persecution of the second uncle.And if the father chooses the uncle, he will definitely stand opposite the second uncle.

The more Zhao Han thought about it, the heavier his heart became...

Seeing his son's serious expression, Zhao Zhizhen couldn't help laughing and scolding: "You think too much!" Seeing his usually calm son's face change, Zhao Zhizhen was rarely happy.

How did Zhao Han know that his father had suddenly changed his mind, so he whispered, "This...isn't worth it."

Zhao Zhizhen clapped his palm on his son's shoulder... As expected, he was much stronger than before, but he said, "I'm getting more outspoken."

Zhao Han was taken aback for a moment, and Zhao Zhizhen calmly said, "I am the good son of the Holy Majesty."

Zhao Han was taken aback for a moment, but immediately felt relieved, and smiled, "So is my son."

Zhao Zhizhen's side is as calm as a mountain without wind and rain, because he has enough capital, but Wang Ziteng is quite restless like sitting on the stove.

The eldest prince originally asked him to go to the northern border to secretly cause trouble for the seventh prince, but after a while, he said that he would fully cooperate with the seventh prince!This change of order made Wang Ziteng almost regret following the wrong person!

He tossed and turned, and finally decided to "pretend to be sick" first, and wait until the eldest prince made up his mind.

Wang Ziteng pretended to be sick, but he didn't just lay down on the bed and bribe one or two doctors.He really pinched his nose and plunged into the tub filled with cold water...

That night, he developed a high fever as he wished.

It's just that Wang Ziteng himself didn't expect that this time he almost ended his life!

He used to sleep in the wind and sleep in the south, he was up all day and night, and he had no time to be idle when he returned to Beijing. The wind and cold seemed to be a sign, and it hooked up all the problems in him in one breath, so he had a very severe attack—almost to the point of death. The point of preparing for the funeral.

He was seriously ill this time, not to mention frightening his wife and children, he also scared his sister Mrs. Wang and niece Wang Xifeng to drop their work, and went straight to visit her mother's house with good medicinal materials: I'm afraid I won't see you again next time !And...the money they donated will also be wasted.

So Wang Ziteng woke up in the midst of crying, his wife, daughter, sister, niece... surrounded by a circle of female relatives, he deeply felt that waking up would be better than not waking up!

Prince Teng was seriously ill with typhoid fever, so Yuan Chun only waited in the palace until his cousin You Shi and his own sister-in-law Li Wan came to express their condolences.

Youshi is a rare guest, and her intentions are clearly revealed, so she came here to plead for Jia Zhen: The Holy Majesty is patronizing Yipin's family, and has not yet made any plans for the Ning Mansion. Jia Zhen's intention is to ask Yuan Chun to ask the prince for a idea.

But from Yuan Chun's point of view, this was clearly a death struggle, and she wanted to ignore it, but Jia Zhen was the head of the Jia family after all, so it would be chilling to sit idly by, and it would be detrimental to her.

So Yuan Chun asked softly: "Do you have an explanation, uncle?" Naturally, this uncle was referring to Jia Jing.

With a bitter face on his face, You Shi said honestly, "I'm not seeing you behind closed doors." Jia Jing's attitude made Jia Zhen quite uneasy, otherwise she wouldn't have come to the palace when the funeral was in progress.

Yuan Chun thought for a while, and then said, "I beg the prince to inquire about it, and let's make a decision again. We must not be self-defeating, right?"

Li Wan sat and listened without saying a word until now, "The side concubine said so."

Yuan Chun smiled, "It doesn't count if we say these things. Let's just wait patiently, the prince has something to say, you come again." She suddenly felt that if Jia Zhen was demoted because of this, she would leave Beijing to take up a post... Seems like a really bad idea pretty good idea.

When Youshi heard this, it was exactly the same reasoning, so he changed his mind and flattered Yuanchun.

Yuan Chun smiled and said nothing, but he wondered if Jianer woke up...

At this time, Baoqin hurried over, and after entering the door, he whispered in Yuanchun's ear, "The princess's natal sister-in-law made a big fuss in the mourning hall, saying that we killed the princess."

Where is "we", Liu Zhi's sister-in-law's original words must be referring to me!Yuan Chun got up abruptly when he heard the words, "You don't have to drink a toast!" After thinking about it, compared with this family, her mother's family is considered better.

Baoqin added in a low voice at this time, "The uncle is in the mourning hall, I'm afraid it has already been torn apart."

Yuan Chun raised his foot and walked out, "Nonsense!"

Seeing this, You Shi and Li Wan naturally wanted to follow out, at least to give the aunt a boost.

Waiting for the "women's army" to arrive, Yuan Chun was shocked: Zhao Han's fair face had three clear bloodstains... and there was a middle-aged woman kneeling on the ground, her cheeks were completely swollen.

Zhao Han didn't say a word, and the woman was already detained by the maid.At this time, everyone bowed to each other, Zhao Han didn't seem to take the "disfigurement" too seriously, and his demeanor was still calm.

And Yuan Chun looked Zhao Han up and down for a long time, and then said quietly, "We can only let Jianer take the blame."

"What you said is," Zhao Han said while holding his forehead, "I'll let my brother off first this time."
