Chapter 296 There is no good or bad, only people call themselves
Wang family, in the inner hall.
Seeing that Mrs. Wang had no doubts, Aunt Xue smiled and said: "Brother, I also have something to ask my brother for advice."
When Wang Ziteng heard this, he was stunned for a moment, looked at his sister, and asked curiously: "Oh, what's the matter?"
Mrs. Zhao looked at it with a smile, feeling proud in her heart.
Aunt Xue sighed, pointed at Xue Pan, and said: "It's not Wenlong yet. I saw him wandering around in the capital every day. It's not a big deal. He might cause trouble again. My brother is in charge of the capital camp now.
, I am thinking about letting Wen Long serve as an errand beside my brother, no matter what kind of official he is, even if he is leading a horse and riding a pedal, it would be good to gain some experience."
Hearing this, Wang Ziteng turned to look at Xue Pan, and happened to see the honest smile on his nephew's face. He looked up and down, nodded, and said to Aunt Xue beside him: "Pan'er is tall and tall.
Good material for becoming a general."
Aunt Xue couldn't help but be so happy that the thin crow's feet at the corners of her eyes opened with laughter.
Wang Ziteng muttered: "I have soldiers from the Central Guards under my tent, going back and forth to the camps, delivering orders and letters, etc. They are not tired at all. Let Pan'er do it first to gain experience."
Generally speaking, the soldiers of the Central Guards Army followed the commander, delivering documents and running errands, etc. They mainly followed the prince to gain knowledge.
Aunt Xue was overjoyed. She quickly looked at Xue Pan who was staying where she was and said, "Pan'er, why don't you come over and thank your uncle?"
Xue Pan smiled and said: "Thank you, uncle."
I thought secretly, I don’t know how many people the guards are in charge of here?
Thinking of those people shouting and hugging each other and giving orders, my heart felt hot.
The prince made a serious face and warned: "Come to my house on time from now on to listen to your duties, don't be lazy."
When Xue Pan heard this, the joy on his face gradually faded away, his eyes the size of copper bells rolled up, and his heart felt gurgling.
Why doesn't this sound like a good job?
Not to mention the small thoughts on Xue Pan's side, Jia Heng, accompanying Empress Song and Princess Xianning after lunch, sat in Kunning for a while, until the meeting of Shen and You.
He got on a carriage and left the palace.
The carriage rumbled past the six-foot-wide bluestone road with high red walls. The sound of wheels and cold stones echoed in the long alley, adding a bit of coldness and loneliness to the twilight winter evening.
meaning.
On the carriage, Jia Heng and Yuan Chun were sitting opposite each other. Yuan Chun's maid, holding the piano, was sitting quietly aside, looking at the young man opposite who was wearing the official robe of a second-grade military attache.
The girl took off her official robe and put on a light yellow dress. She wore no makeup, she was pure and elegant, and her beauty was not reduced at all. However, at this moment, her jade face, which was originally overflowing with joy, calmed down, and there was a hint of sadness.
Seeing the confusion on Yuan Chun's face, Jia Heng asked: "Sister, what's wrong?"
Yuan Chun retracted his absent-minded gaze, stared at Jia Heng, and said softly: "It's nothing, just for a moment, something..."
Jia Heng said: "A little confused?"
Yuan Chun's eyes lit up, his beady voice trembled slightly, and he said softly: "It's suddenly... a little empty."
Jia Heng smiled and said: "This is human nature. After all, the eldest sister has lived in the palace for eight or nine years. If she suddenly returns home, there will be a process of adaptation."
Jia Heng could understand Yuan Chun's mood, the excitement of having fulfilled his wish for many years, but what was left was confusion about the future.
And it can be predicted that Yuanchun will definitely be even more uncomfortable in a few days.
"Sister, have you ever thought about the future?" Jia Heng thought for a while and asked.
Yuanchun sighed softly, raised his white and rosy face, and reflected the boy opposite him with his clear and bright eyes.
Jia Heng looked at the girl who was hesitant to speak, and said softly: "Sister, please stay at home for a while. If you really can't stay idle, I have a good place to go."
When Yuan Chun heard this, his bright eyes sparkled under his curved willow-leaf eyebrows, and he asked curiously: "Brother Heng, what's a good place to go?"
Baoqin on the side also raised his eyes to look at the young man opposite and listened quietly.
Jia Heng smiled and said: "I am familiar with the eldest princess of Jinyang. She has recently been in charge of some businesses in Dongcheng for the emperor. I have also invested some money in it. If eldest sister has some free time, how about helping me take care of these businesses? No.
The eldest sister needs to show her face, just keep an eye on the account books, come up with ideas and so on."
The atmosphere of Chen Hanzhi was much more open than that of the previous Ming Dynasty. Of course, Yuanchun was not allowed to show his face and let his mother-in-law and maids come and go to do things.
As for whether it will affect future marriages.
In fact, I was a little worried. When I returned from the palace, in the eyes of those who should be disgusted, I should have been disgusted long ago.
Yuanchun's beautiful and beautiful jade face showed joy, and he said in surprise: "This... Heng brother, can I do it?"
Originally, I wanted to ask Hengdi how he knew the eldest princess of Jinyang, but suddenly he remembered that she seemed to have heard some rumors in the palace.
Jia Heng smiled and said: "Eldest sister is helping the queen in the palace to handle some affairs in an orderly manner. These little things are not a big deal."
Yuan Chun thought for a while, with complicated eyes, and said gratefully: "Then... I'm sorry for bothering Brother Heng."
The two of them had never met each other before, but this young man took himself out of the high walls of this deep palace and asked for the help of noble people to help him settle down.
Jia Heng smiled and said, "It's right for my eldest sister to have worked so hard in the palace for so long for the sake of the clan. As for marriage, don't worry, I will always find a good home for you."
When Yuan Chun heard this, his fair face turned red, his eyes lowered slightly, and he was a little shy, and said softly: "Brother Heng, don't always bring up marriage. I don't hate getting married, so let's talk about you. I'm leaving home.
It’s been a long time, and some things at home are unclear.”
"Okay, let's not mention it for now." Jia Heng smiled. Although he was generous, it was his daughter's family after all, and it was not easy to talk about it all the time. He asked, "What do you want to know, eldest sister?"
Yuanchun said softly: "It's Baoyu. I heard from my family that Baoyu didn't study well, and he had a lot of twists and turns because of it. What do Hengdi think?"
In fact, the last time Mrs. Wang came to the palace to meet Yuan Chun, she mentioned Jia Heng to Yuan Chun and complained to Yuan Chun about Jia Heng's reprimanding Baoyu.
Although Yuanchun thought there was nothing wrong with Jia Heng, he also wanted to know what the young man in front of him thought of Baoyu.
Jia Heng muttered: "Baoyu, he is studying in the school now. In two years, if he really doesn't like studying, he will follow his wishes and just become a wealthy and idle person."
Yuan Chundan opened his lips lightly and said softly: "After I go back, I will also urge him to study hard."
Jia Heng nodded and said: "The eldest sister is like a mother, Baoyu should be able to listen to the eldest sister."
Yuan Chun was silent for a moment and said: "Brother Heng's previous concerns, after I went back yesterday, I also thought about it. Our family is really rich and noble, and we really don't dare to have extravagant hopes anymore. It's like that burning fire.
Oil and flowers are covered with brocade, but I am afraid that when the water is full, it will overflow, and the moon will wax and wane."
Jia Heng said: "What eldest sister said is right, but not everyone in the clan thinks so."
Yuan Chun's jade face paused slightly and was silent for a moment. She looked at the young man opposite her with bright eyes and said softly: "Brother Heng, I'll just explain the pros and cons to my mother when I get back."
Jia Heng looked at the shrewd girl opposite him with gentle eyes, smiled and said: "Sister, I know what I know, let's not talk about it for now."
"Yeah." Yuanchun responded softly.
Rongguofu
It was in the evening, and the lights in Rongqing Hall were as bright as daylight, and there were crowds of people.
Mrs. Wang, Sister Feng, Aunt Xue, Baochai and others who had returned from the Wang family were chatting with Jia Mu, and were served by a group of maids and the mother-in-law with their hands down.
Jia's mother looked unhappy, frowned, looked at Mrs. Wang, and asked: "Baoyu, did his uncle really say that?"
Mrs. Wang said softly: "Old lady, his uncle said that he is not in a hurry to get the eldest girl out of the palace. He is thinking of a way to wait for Brother Heng to come back and discuss this matter. There is no rush in a day or two.
Yes, right?"
Yuanchun's entry into the palace was not only a matter for the Jia family, but also a matter for the four major families.
Jia Mu was silent for a moment and said: "Brother Heng said yesterday that he could not enter the palace this time, so he asked for grace and brought the eldest girl out."
When Mrs. Wang heard this, her heart was shocked and her eyes were filled with doubts: "Brother Heng... he shouldn't be so fast?"
When she thought about it, even if she wanted to seek grace from the palace, she couldn't be on the same foot with her front and back. She had to wait a few days. Otherwise, wouldn't she be afraid of the queen being upset?
Jia Mu said: "When has Brother Heng ever failed?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a woman walked in quickly from outside and said with a smile: "Old lady, madam, Uncle Heng has led the eldest daughter out of the palace and is on her way here."
Mrs. Wang: "..."
The hands holding the beads turned slightly white.
Seeing Mrs. Wang's face, Jia Mu sighed inwardly, waved her hand and said, "Yuanyang, hurry up and greet her."
The mandarin ducks responded.
After a while, Jia Heng and Yuan Chun entered the inner hall with Qin in their arms, greeted everyone's eyes from the outside, and saluted Jia's mother.
Facing everyone's gaze, Jia Heng said loudly: "Old lady, I have asked the Queen for her grace to bring Sister Yuanchun back."
Yuanchun also stepped forward to salute at this moment, with excitement and joy on his face, and called out: "Ancestor, mother, my daughter is back."
Mother Jia stared at Yuanchun, her face filled with joy, and she said excitedly: "Okay, big girl, just come back. Yuanyang, you can clean up a room in the courtyard and let the big girl live in it."
Yuanyang smiled and greeted the women, and went to help clean up the house.
For a while, Daiyu and her sisters all came up to talk to each other, and Baoyu also came up to talk to Yuanchun.
Jia Heng was so close that he sat down next to Jia Mu.
Jia Mu quickly asked: "What did the Queen say?"
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Wang on the side turned her eyes and listened attentively.
Jia Heng smiled and said: "The Queen is grateful for my eldest sister's filial piety, so she happily agreed."
Jia Mu smiled and said, "That's good, that's good."
Sister Feng smiled at the side and said: "Old ancestor, it's getting late, why don't you ask someone to pass on the food?"
Jia Mu was about to respond.
However, at this moment, a woman came in from outside and said, "Old lady, the eldest gentleman is here."
The faces of the people who were talking in the room were all stunned, and their smiles gradually froze. Xichun, Tanchun and other sisters who were talking with Yuan Chun all looked at Jia Heng.
Ever since Jia Lian was "caught stealing his mother", in the past few days, although there has been no public discussion in the Rongguo Mansion, there have been secret rumors and rumors.
Ru Xichun, why did she follow Jia Heng back to Dongfu without much hesitation yesterday?
Because in the original work, the rumors about Ning Mansion were so unbearable that Xichun said, "I am an innocent person and don't let you lead me astray."
But now the East and West mansions have just been adjusted.
On the corridor, Jia She walked quickly with a gloomy face, a burning anger already hidden in his heart.
The eldest girl was taken out of the palace by Jia Heng's son. Such a big matter was not even discussed with him.
For so many years, he had been making arrangements for the palace, and finally brought it to the Queen. The results were about to come, but Jia Heng, the child, ruined it.
This is simply unreasonable!
At this moment, in the Rongqing Hall, after hearing that Jia She was coming, Jia's mother's face changed slightly, and she felt something bad in her heart. She looked at Jia Heng aside and saw that his face was dull, and she thought to herself, could it be because of the eldest girl's matter?
While thinking about it, he saw Jia She bypassing the screen, walking into the main hall, standing still, cupping his hands and saying, "My son has seen his mother."
Over there, Yuanchun had already stopped talking and laughing with his sisters, stood up from his seat, and saluted Jia She.
Jia She looked at Yuanchun, who was sitting among the warblers and swallows, for a long time, then turned to look at Jia Mu, and said in a deep voice: "Mother, when did the eldest niece come back from the palace?"
Hearing the unkind tone, Jia Mu frowned and said, "I've only been back for a while."
Jia She's eyes flashed coldly, suppressing the anger in his heart, and asked: "Okay, why did you get out of the palace?"
Jia's mother said: "The eldest girl has been in the palace for so many years. Brother Heng means that staying in the palace all the time is not an option, so I asked for the palace's grace."
Jia She said angrily: "Why don't you discuss such a big matter with me?"
As soon as these words came out, there was silence in Rongqing Hall.
The smile on Sister Feng's face gradually faded, Danfeng narrowed his eyes, looked at his father-in-law, and then glanced at Jia Heng.
Jia Heng put down the tea cup and said in a cold voice: "Sir, I have made clear my interests and concerns with the second master and second wife about this matter, and the eldest sister also agreed. Although the matter was a little hasty, there is nothing wrong with it. Besides, I
As the leader of the Jia clan, the affairs of the eldest sister are closely related to the clan, and I have the right to make the decision! Why, does the eldest master have any objections? "
As soon as these words came out, the Rongqing Hall became eerily quiet.
Because this scene has not appeared for several months.
Yuan Chun, Aunt Xue, and Baochai all looked at the two people who were faintly confronting each other.
Jia She was stared at by the young man wearing the robe of a second-grade military attache across from him. He thought of the past disputes for a moment, and his aura weakened by three points. He said in a deep voice: "Since my eldest niece entered the palace, I have been busy. You
Although I am the leader of the clan, how can I make decisions without knowing the details? I don’t know what the benefits are."
Jia Heng chuckled lightly and said coldly: "I told my eldest sister on the way back. My eldest sister said that I, Ningrong Erfu, have a family and two kingdoms. I am extremely rich and noble. There is a saying that the moon waxes and wanes, and the water is full."
If you overflow, if you continue to have those extravagant thoughts, I am afraid that there will be no blessings and misfortunes, but people can only bring it to their own devices."
Yuanchun: "..."
After everyone heard this, they all looked at Jia Heng with complex eyes and various expressions.
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "Now that I have received the grace of the Queen, my eldest sister has returned from the palace to serve her parents. What else does the eldest master want to do?"
Jia She said: "You..."
Yes, now that the done thing is done, what else can he do?
Jia Heng said: "If the eldest master has that spare time, he might as well take good care of his own affairs. It would be better to spend less time on important matters related to the fortune and misfortune of the clan."
Now he is qualified to say this. In terms of status, he is a first-class general, and he is also the clan leader. In terms of dignity, how can Jia She still have much dignity in the house now?
On the day Aunt Xue came to Beijing, a scandal broke out about Jia Lian stealing people from the house. She couldn't control her back house and her children, and she was embarrassed in front of her relatives. She didn't know what to say, so she came here to ask for trouble?!
When Jia She heard this, his face changed and he felt angry.
Looking at the "weird" eyes one after another, I felt a sense of shame and anger coming over me.
Swearing doesn’t expose the shortcomings!
Seeing that the fuss was really going on, Jia Mu gave some advice and said, "Okay, everyone is back, can we still send them back? Brother Heng has his own opinions on big things in the clan. It's different now.
There is no need for the eldest girl to suffer in the palace all the time."
When Jia She heard this, his face turned livid, and he calmed down the anger in his heart. After a long time, he said coldly: "Mother, he is very proud now, young and energetic, but he is becoming more and more self-willed and does not listen to others. I want to see him
Being so capable, how far will it take my Jia family in the future!"
After saying the harsh words, he snorted coldly and walked away.
Jia Heng looked at Jia She's leaving figure, his eyes dark and his heart cold, "I'm afraid... you won't be able to see him soon."
Jia She's smuggling and smuggling matters will be exposed after this year.
After Jia She's "provoking an investigation", the Rongqing Hall broke up unhappy, and the atmosphere was somewhat strange.
