White Moonlight is Not Easy To Do - Chapter 276
Yingchun said: “Why not? The emperor’s harem is three thousand, just after the audition, how many 16- or 17-year-old fresh and beautiful girls are waiting for him in the palace, and he won’t favor my eldest sister. Although my second uncle is in front of me Dad’s house, but after all, he’s only a fifth-rank official. Could it be Wang Ziteng…”
Sima Xuan said, “Don’t tell others that when you are outside.”
Yingchun said: “What the **** is that, tell me!”
Sima Xuan said: “The emperor sent us to clean up the province of Jiangsu, and the old ministers of the emperor’s dynasty were beheaded one after another. Now those old ministers have resentments in their hearts and people are panicked. Slow down.”
Yingchun said: “Then you don’t have to choose my big sister.”
Sima Xuan said: “We don’t want to study the matter of the emperor’s inner curtain. Why do you feel so disgusted with your big sister being the emperor’s concubine?”
Yingchun snorted coldly and said, “Is it a good thing to be an emperor’s concubine in the way my parents’ family is? All the men in the family are not good at anything. How can women be strong in this era? They can’t recognize themselves. When a lady in the palace goes out, wouldn’t she cook oil on fire?”
Sima Xuan said, “I thought you were jealous of your big sister.”
Yingchun smirked: “Why am I jealous of her? To be honest, you are much more handsome than the emperor, and you only married me. The emperor is so old and has three thousand harems, so it’s a good thing he didn’t like her. He wants to accept me. I must run away.”
Sima Xuan was in a happy mood and smiled: “You girl, don’t talk nonsense when you are outside.”
“My old birthday star thinks he has a long life?”
Sima Xuan pulled her to sit on his lap, stroked her hair, and pinched her chin.
“Don’t worry about the private affairs of outsiders, including the affairs of your mother’s family. You married me. No matter how bad your mother’s family is, as long as I’m here, it won’t affect your life.”
Yingchun said: “You said it lightly, what about some girls in the Rong Mansion?”
Sima Xuan said: “Everyone has cultivated their own fate, and it is difficult for outsiders to control. Besides, as the so-called “no breaking, no standing”, how many girls in the Rong Palace will now recognize your kindness, accept your kindness completely and thank you for it Unless, you marry them all to Houmen.”
Yingchun couldn’t help but sigh, knowing that what he said was the heart of the world. At this time, how could she set up a shop and ask the maids in the Rong House to make ends meet, instead of holding Jia Baoyu in order to be a concubine, everyone would think she had a bad conscience.
In this era, which woman doesn’t want someone to take care of the rest of her life, in their thinking, Jia’s house is the place to make a living, working in a shop and showing up, where is a good future.
Sima Xuan added: “Your favorite sister Lin already has a good future, and Lin Ruhai has been appointed as a young master, so it’s not in vain for you to save his life. I guess he will thank you even more in the future. When you get married, His uncle is too busy to take care of himself in the south, and he didn’t add makeup to you. He didn’t give you a big gift from me as a mediator. “
Yingchun laughed: “Are you thinking about the Lin family’s property?”
“I miss you.”
Saying that, he leaned his head and kissed her lips…
Lin Ruhai’s result is that the dust has settled, and he is ready to give Yingchun makeup and Sima Xuan’s media gift. Gold and silver jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings are collected a lot. He also knew that when he was gone in the future, he was afraid that the Wangfu would be Daiyu’s reliable “mother’s home” and would be more dedicated.
Two days before Jia Zheng’s birthday, he brought Daiyu to the door and delivered several carts of gifts, but the palace declined one or two, and finally accepted it.
…
Because Lin Ruhai didn’t die, he didn’t have to go to the funeral, Jia Lian didn’t have to fight with the Lin family members in Jiangnan, and he didn’t have to spend time selling the Lin family property. Therefore, Lin Ruhai’s father and daughter entered Beijing earlier than the original.
At this time, Jia Zhengcai’s birthday, Yingchun also asked Si Qi to bring a small gift to his door, but he did not return to his parents’ home. At this time, the incident of Baoyu’s infatuation had passed. He started not wanting to accept the reality, but gradually got used to it. He took Xiangyun into the mansion to play together, and the emotional hurt was gradually forgotten.
However, it was said that relatives in the clan congratulated Jia Zheng on his birthday, and the Rong Mansion held a banquet and set up a stage. It was a lively time, and some eunuchs passed on Jia Zheng to the palace to see him.
When Jia Zheng sent Lai Da and other housekeepers to come back to report the good news, and then let the old lady lead his wife and others into the palace to express gratitude, the Rong Mansion was filled with joy.
Mrs. Wang was always worried because of Yingchun’s high marriage to the prince. When Yingchun returned home that day, she mentioned Yuanchun, and she felt humiliated, but she could not help Yingchun. At this time, I was happy, Yingchun was nothing but a princess, and Yuanchun was an imperial concubine!
As for Yuanchun’s grade is lower than Yingchun, but she believes that people around the emperor are naturally worth three points, in short, Yuanchun is stronger.
Not long after, another decree came out from the palace: On the 26th, the family members of Jiaofang can enter the palace to welcome them. If you have a family in the Chongyu other courtyard and can be stationed at the gate, you may wish to invite Luanyu from the inner court to enter his private residence. First, the commoners can do their best to share the pleasures of family and family.
Jia’s house was full of expectations to welcome the princess to save her relatives and to build a royal courtyard.
Jia Lian’s burden became heavier. Jia Mu, Jia Zheng, and Mrs. Wang all asked him to discuss various matters, and finally let him be responsible for implementation.
At this time, the Jia family did not get the property of the Lin family. Although there is still a lot of money in the private treasury of Mrs. Jia and Mrs. Wang, but the inner pocket of the public has been exhausted, how to build the imperial concubine’s courtyard?
How could Mrs. Wang give up saving relatives? How could she raise her eyebrows without letting Yuanchun save her relatives?
Mrs. Wang wanted her relatives to collect money and went to Wang’s house. Wang’s family was only willing to pay 50,000 taels. She found Aunt Xue. Aunt Xue wanted to facilitate Baochai’s marriage and did not want to offend Baochai’s future mother-in-law. One hundred thousand taels. In fact, the Xue family is not as good as before, and the money left by the ancestors has been scattered into seven or eight out of ten.
Mother Jia summoned Lin Ruhai to discuss it, and also hinted that she would raise money to build a garden, but Lin Ruhai actually took out 20,000 taels. Madam Wang’s face turned dark on the spot, and Mother Jia was angry.
It turned out that Yingchun took Daiyu to play at the palace two days earlier. He had anticipated these behaviors of Jia’s mansion, and reminded Daiyu not to invest money in this bottomless pit.
Although Lin Ruhai saw that Yingchun’s training was not qualified at all, she highly respected her vision and talent. But wanting that Prince Yu is the most trusted and favored younger brother of the saint, the princess Yingchun is also deeply favored by the queen mother and the queen, the eldest princess and the princesses love, even if the emperor is the emperor, she also turns a blind eye to the matter of her boudoir training, Song Fan, Close one eye. Yingchun said that he didn’t need to invest money, and naturally he knew more about the inside story of the royal family, but it was inconvenient to speak bluntly, I was afraid that Jia Yuanchun was a fake.
But the Rong Mansion is Yue’s family in the end, and Mother Jia said, he can’t do it if he doesn’t contribute money. So he gave 20,000 taels first. He guessed that after a while, the Rong House would speak again because of insufficient money, and he would give out a little more. If you give too much the first time, you will have to make up more next time.
Besides, Jia’s mother also sent Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng to Prince Yu’s residence. Sima Xuan was there today, and the husband and wife entertained them together.
Because Jia Lian is Yingchun’s brother, even in a society of ethics, it’s okay to speak directly with brothers and sisters in public.
Jia Lian talked about the fact that relatives pooled money to build the other courtyard. He talked about the Ning, Wang, Xue, and Lin families who all gave money, and even the poor Shi family put together 10,000 taels.
Yingchun saw Jia Lian’s smug look on her face. Although Jia Lian was also smug when she married Sima Xuan, but not to this level. Maybe they will think that the emperor’s concubine will give birth to a prince, and it may be possible to inherit the throne in the future. People in this era must have this kind of hope with a very small success rate.
Earlier, Jia Lian was asked to take care of the tyrants and clansmen in Jinling, and he could still accomplish some things.
Also, there are many people in Jia’s house who are shrewd in small things and confused in big things. This is the case with Jia’s mother, Madam Wang and Wang Xifeng. This Jia Lian is not so confused in some important matters, such as: he will not bully others, but in Jia Yuanchun It was very confusing.
Yingchun took the tea, blew it, took a sip, and said, “Brother Lian, are you joking? I, a first-rank concubine Yu, paid her a virtuous concubine from a first-rank virtuous concubine to build a different courtyard for her filial piety? Hehe, since she has served Your Majesty, it is also my little sister-in-law. I can ask the Queen Mother if I want to give this little sister-in-law a share.”
Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng couldn’t help being stunned. In this day and age, how could anyone be so arrogant? Will the scene be politely declined?
Jia Lian said: “Sister, but this is also our Rongfu show of loyalty to the royal family. Rongfu is my sister’s family after all, and it also represents my sister’s face.”
Yingchun said: “Your Majesty is so loyal to your Majesty, can your Majesty not know? My husband sings as a wife, and the Majesty knows it. As for my face, how could my face be in the other courtyard of the big sister, if brother Lian and father have the ability of their ancestors , I have a prettier face than anyone else.”
Wang Xifeng was inconvenient to say more because of the presence of the prince, and Yingchun said, “Brother Lian, I think you are treating my kindness as a donkey’s liver and lungs again.”
Jia Lian was taken aback and said, “Sister, I’ve been too busy lately to touch the ground. I…”
Jia Lian wanted to say that he had no time to touch other people’s daughters-in-law.
Yingchun said: “Just say you are stupid. Who will belong to the Rongfu in the future? Gongzhong’s money has been spent on building a garden for my cousin. In the future, will the garden belong to you or your mother? Or is it the second uncle Baoyu? If it belongs to you in the future, will you have to repay the favor? The princess is all empty, and you haven’t become a high-ranking official, will you have money to repay in the future?”
Wang Xifeng was taken aback: “This… filial piety to the goddess, how can you ask your brother to return the favor.”
Yingchun said: “I don’t want my brother to pay it back, then the other courtyard belongs to my cousin. My cousin has a garden. Are you grateful to my parents or my brother? My cousin gave the garden to the second uncle’s house, can you still go and ask for it back? If my cousin brought glory to the family, would Brother Lian become a high-ranking official because of his cousin’s concubine position? It is said that Concubine Yang Gui, who was the favorite of the harem in Tang Dynasty, was ‘sisters and brothers are all broken, pitiful glorious door. The hearts of parents in the world do not regenerate males and females. ‘Could my cousin have the ability of Concubine Yang? If there is, I would first seal Second Uncle, Baoyu, and Lan Ge’er. Where can Brother Lian be ranked? Fool.”
Jia Lian’s head was a piece of paste: “Isn’t it an honor to be an imperial concubine?”
Yingchun said, “Even if my cousin has the beauty of Concubine Yang, I have never seen the emperor as Tang Minghuang, and you don’t have the ability of Yang Guozhong to control the court. If I were your husband and wife, I would call myself ill as soon as possible, and it is important to keep my family wealth.”
Wang Xifeng said, “But how do you explain this to the old lady?”
Yingchun said: “It’s a joke that I want to pay this money. If the old lady is angry with me, I can’t do anything. You should be round in front of the old lady, and you should think more about your own affairs.”
Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng returned disappointed. No matter how euphemistic they used to repay, both Mother Jia and Madam Wang understood, and Yingchun’s reply was two words: No money!
