The Concubine of the Red Chamber

The life of the Jia family was indeed unsatisfactory, but Jia Lan was not a real child, so she didn't feel very sad, and she herself didn't have much affection for her aunt's biological father.It’s not that I don’t care about it, the Jia’s family doesn’t lack clothes or clothes. Thinking about it from another angle, it’s not like struggling like a farm girl or a maidservant through time. It’s unrealistic to leave Jia’s house. She’s only seven years old now, and she’s still a girl, a pretty little girl. , the little girl who has no family living outside, can refer to Xiangling in the future... The existence of Xiaomeishu only makes her live a healthier life, but it is not a panacea, otherwise she would not have died in her previous life.

Just when Jia Lan thought that this kind of life would last another ten years, an imperial decree changed her life. The companion of the third princess in the palace fell ill, so she had to look for it again. The courtiers, plus there is a daughter at home who is about the same age as the third princess, so they are naturally missed.

"Our Min'er's body?" It's a good thing to be a companion, and Jia Shishi is not unwilling, but it is the third princess she does not want the most. He is only eight years old, but he is the most unruly, but he is very favored by the Holy One. Even if the Jia family has a good relationship with the Zhen family, it is because of this that he knows the truth. She has served in the palace for several years, and has been a palace maid of the emperor's biological mother, even in front of the emperor, she is quite respectable.But let her daughter serve that savage princess. The third princess has been studying for two years, and has already changed two companions. Even one companion has a broken leg, and the other has been disfigured. This is the third time she has to change. Yes, when Jia Shishi got the news, he was glad that his daughter was two years younger than the princess, so she would not be selected into the palace so early.

Jia Daishan was also very embarrassed, because of gossip, it was heard that the young girl in Hong Shangshu's family was all injured after being sent home, and she was going to die soon. The third princess was jealous, so she pricked her body countless times with embroidery needles, and almost killed her with punches and kicks. The Holy Majesty changed the servants around the third princess for this reason, but the third princess used to coax the Holy Majesty to cry Kneeling, there are other companions to testify, it has nothing to do with the princess, it is the daughter of the Hong family who has always been savage and made the servants in the palace hold grudges, so this bad retribution has happened.The Holy Majesty did a lot to appease, so things didn't break out.Even if Concubine Zhen took care of her beautiful daughter in the palace, how could she feel comfortable at home?As the Duke of the state, the prince of Kilometer is getting older, not for other reasons. Apart from the eight-year-old third princess, Concubine Zhen also has the sixteenth prince who is already fourteen. Wade through this muddy water.

"You brought Min'er into the palace once. Min'er's body is a little thin. Didn't she just get sick two days ago? Didn't the imperial doctor say that you should take care of it? I'll talk to the Holy Majesty again. I think it shouldn't be too big. Question." Jia Dai thought about it, but according to his understanding of the present, he decided to tell the truth.His own Min'er was good-looking and intelligent, so it was really worrying to put her in front of the third princess. He would rather his daughter be rumored to be weak than enter the palace.

Jia Shishi nodded. If the fifth princess was the queen's daughter, she would definitely persuade her, but the third princess would forget it... Although this move can give her daughter a weak name, it will be a few years when she grows up. , The body has been well maintained, and it should not be a big problem to appear in the social circle.For this reason, Jia Shishi wrote a letter to the Zhen family to explain the situation.

Things went smoothly. Jia Shishi took her daughter into the palace to thank her. Jia Min had just recovered from her illness. In addition to the tense atmosphere in the palace, her face was pale and she shook every step. Seeing such a girl, even Concubine Zhen felt a little bit nervous. Silent, no need for an imperial doctor, Concubine Zhen understands that Jia Min is not suitable to be her daughter's companion, and her own daughter understands that Concubine Zhen is not a fool, her daughter's temper is the result of being indulged by the Holy Majesty who likes her, but so what, as If the princess doesn't have such arrogance, how can she do it?Even the emperor praised his daughter, so he didn't need to hold her back, it wasn't a big deal anyway.As for the accompanying readers who were being bullied, why should they be careless?Anyway, people didn't die, did they?

Seeing that Jia Min was not suitable, Concubine Zhen reconsidered other candidates. This time, besides choosing a companion for her daughter, she was actually trying to make contacts for her son. Since the Jia family, the Shi family, and the Wang family were not suitable, Concubine Zhen had to think about it. Other candidates mentioned by the emperor.After thinking about it carefully, Concubine Zhen felt that she should write a letter back and ask her mother's family if there was anyone of the right age.Staying by Baoqing's side for a few years can be regarded as raising his status, and he can marry better in the future.

The eight-year-old Princess Baoqing heard that her future companion would enter the palace today, and she was curious for a moment. She thought that if she still knew everything like the previous one, she would refuse directly, but she didn't wait for her to go. Looking for his mother and concubine, he saw Jia Min. From a distance, Jia Min's face was more delicate than his own, and the sixth prince beside him said casually, "When you are quiet, you are like a beautiful flower shining in the water, and when you move, you are like a weak willow supporting the wind."The heart has one more opening than the stem, and the disease is like Xizi's three points. 'Although she is not very old, what Princess Baoqing dislikes the most is that other people's appearance is better than her own. Now she looks very annoying.

"This sick man still wants to be my companion?" Princess Baoqing said displeasedly when she heard that even her cousin Zhen Yingjia praised Jia Min's appearance.

Zhen Yingjia understands the temperament of her princess cousin, and has long learned how to please her. Although Zhen Jia and his family are old relatives, compared to the family's explanation of pleasing the princess cousin, she still smiled and said: "Although The appearance looks good, but compared to her, you are a natural beauty, the princess. That girl's face is too pale, and her hair doesn't seem to be black enough, so she can't compare to you, the princess."

Princess Baoqing smiled smugly when she heard the words. Thinking about it carefully, isn't that the case?Even if you want to be your own companion, you can't surpass yourself in appearance, you can only be your own green leaf.

"What do you want Baoqing to read with? I think that in the future, Baoqing will not be allowed to read with his companion, so as not to make troubles about the princess torturing and killing courtiers' daughters." Emperor Longchang looked at Concubine Zhen and said directly.

He first heard that the daughter of the Jia family's concubine was very talented in learning, so he decided to ask her to be his daughter's companion, because Jia Zhen's family was married, and with Zhen Concubine's suggestion, he thought that his daughter would not overdo it.But the news I got just now is that Hong Shangshu's daughter went there this morning, and Emperor Longchang realized the seriousness of the problem. He didn't take it seriously before, and even rewarded Hong Shangshu to appease Hong Shangshu, but now he is gone?Only then did I expect Concubine Zhen to conceal things about the daughter of the Hong family from time to time, and ordered someone to tell the truth to herself, only to find out that almost everyone in the palace knew about the three princesses beating her companion. A lot of them.Hong Shangshu was originally someone he could use, and now he had to do more to comfort him, and he might not be able to use it in the future. No matter how much he thought his daughter was savage and cute, she couldn't say that she did right in torturing and killing the minister's daughter.

Concubine Zhen was taken aback for a moment, and then Emperor Longchang said quietly that the daughter of the Hong family was gone. Concubine Zhen's expression changed suddenly, she was afraid that this matter would have a bad influence on her daughter.Hastily and nervously asked: "Why is it gone? Didn't I ask the imperial doctor to say that it would be fine to raise it?"

"Your good daughter, you ask me, who do I ask? I see that Baoqing's courage is getting bigger and bigger!" Emperor Longchang glared at Concubine Zhen angrily, and said sharply.Originally, she thought she was somewhat similar to her sister, so she doted on her more. As expected, those born by concubines were born by concubines, and they couldn't get on the stage, and they couldn't even raise a daughter well.

Concubine Zhen's legs softened when she heard the words, and she knelt on the ground to intercede for her daughter.

"Father, please calm down. Although my sister is a bit arrogant, but she is young, and it is true that she will not look good on her companion because of a moment of anger, but if she wants to beat someone to death, my son will never believe it." The sixth prince Jun Zeyang Bringing the third princess, Baoqing, and her cousin Zhen Yingjia, they came here to greet the concubine mother, but as soon as she came in, Princess Baoqing was slapped twice by Emperor Longchang, and she scolded her head and face. After she understood what happened, she hurriedly Kneeling down to intercede: "My son knows about this. The third sister did scold Miss Hong a few times at that time, but she was not the one who did it. It was Miss Hong's slaves who wanted to please the third sister."

Emperor Longchang slapped his daughter twice, and the anger in his heart had already subsided a lot. Now he looked at his daughter who was stupidly covering her face in pain, and felt pity in his heart. Well, none of the companions around me came to a good end, and she was the only one in the palace who was capable and capable! I didn't dare to kill at will, but she did. Fortunately, she is a princess. If she is a prince, she may not be able to decide Do something like killing your father and brother."

"Your Majesty's redemption is due to my concubine's incompetence. I beg you not to get angry because of this wickedness." Concubine Zhen knelt in front of Emperor Longchang holding her beaten daughter, begging.While crying, he pinched his daughter on the back.

Princess Baoqing has always been favored, and it was the first time her father treated her like this. After being stunned, she also cried and shouted: "Father, it's really not me, it's really not me, so I scolded her, I really didn't do anything!"

"The emperor calms down..." Zhen Yingjia didn't know what to say at this time. He didn't expect his aunt to be in such a situation in the palace. Although the three princesses were right, the emperor didn't show any face to her aunt. It seems what grandma thought That's right, it is right to send another girl from the Zhen family into the palace.

Emperor Longchang got angry, and only then did he realize the existence of Zhen Yingjia. He felt a little uncomfortable, and said coldly, "Since the matter of Baoqing has already happened, you are too careless. Now it has spread all over the palace. Who else would dare to be Baoqing's companion in the future?"

"It's all about the concubines. The concubines have no way to discipline them and are not strict with their orders. Please give your Majesty three days for the concubines to handle this matter." Concubine Zhen looked at Emperor Longchang weakly and choked up.

Although Concubine Zhen's color is good, she has already passed her best years. Even if she takes good care of herself, Emperor Longchang has gotten used to it after seeing her for so many years. An explanation." After finishing speaking, he turned and left.
