Chapter 36: The Marquis of Changxin's Mansion (1)
The little guy who had gone to deliver the word came back after a while, followed by a woman in a red shirt, both of whom looked respectful. The little guy www.biquge.info in the pen "Fun" Pavilion said: "Mrs. Tai invited the two sisters to go to Qingsongyuan to talk," and pointed to the woman in the red shirt, "This is Sister Hongxue beside Mrs. Tai, and the sisters follow her." ”
Huichun nodded slightly, and greeted Yiying and Hongxue with both salutes, and followed her into the weeping flower gate.
"I don't know what the little brother said about Qingsongyuan, but Mrs. Tai's residence?" Huichun came this time to be familiar with the Hou Mansion, and after walking a few steps, he started talking to Hongxue.
Hongxue knew that this family affair was a certainty, and she didn't dare to take it big, so she responded with a smile: "Exactly, Mrs. Tai still lived in the Changchun Pavilion a few years ago, and then she thought that Master Hou had grown up and it was time to get married, so she took the initiative to move to Qingsong Garden, thinking that the Changchun Pavilion would be left to the future Mrs. Hou to live." ”
Huichun was also relieved when she heard this, so it seems that this lady is a kind person, unlike some people, who live and die in the main house, making things difficult for their daughter-in-law, and the eldest girl can't think about it if she marries in the past.
Yi Ying pouted, Chang would not think so much about her daughter-in-law, she didn't want to live in the Changchun Pavilion, it was really because she had a ghost in her heart.
It was only after she became a Tongfang that she overheard the old people of the Hou Mansion talking about it.
The old marquis was very romantic during his lifetime, and there were dozens of concubines, of which three were particularly favored. Chang's family pressed the ordinary concubines to death, but they treated these three very differently, never making things difficult, and blindly retreating.
The old marquis saw that his heart treasure was not wronged, and he didn't care much about the Chang family, because although there were many beauties in the Hou Mansion, Chang's position was quite stable.
But the good times didn't last long, and soon one of the concubines became pregnant, and the old marquis was overjoyed and obedient to her.
First, he proposed to ask the housemother for peace because she was pregnant, and saw that the old marquis agreed without much hesitation, and was even more proud, and later said that the Changchun Pavilion had good feng shui and was suitable for raising a fetus, and I wanted to move in by myself.
At this time, the old marquis was already very sacred, and the Hou Mansion was becoming more and more prosperous, and he no longer needed to rely on the power of his wife's mother's family, and he was more and more following his own temperament, no longer respecting the Chang family, and directly proposed to let the Chang family move to another courtyard.
Seeing this, Chang naturally couldn't pretend anymore, crying and making trouble, but it only made the old marquis who was faint even more disgusted with her.
Chang couldn't, gritted his teeth and moved out, and since then he has hated and poisoned the concubine's room.
The concubine was not blessed, and after more than five months of prestige, the new emperor ascended the throne and the old marquis died violently.
The day after the old marquis passed away, Chang returned to the Changchun Pavilion, and in front of the maids, the three favored concubines, including the concubine who was more than seven months pregnant, were strangled to death with white silk, and the corpses were thrown into the mass grave, and the rest of the concubines were all sent to Zhuangzi to be indiscriminately matched.
Chang moved back to the Changchun Pavilion, and he didn't even have a nightmare.
But that's not the end of the story.
When Chang was thirty-five years old, he had a serious illness, and for nearly a year, he had seen all the famous doctors in the capital, and Xu Xian was desperate, and even began to prepare for the future. One day, a Taoist priest came to the door and said that Mrs. Tai's long-term illness was due to incompatibility with the feng shui of her residence, and she only needed to change her residence to be cured.
Xu Xian has never believed in Buddhism, and he thought that Chang was seriously ill now, and if he tossed around again, it would only aggravate his condition in vain, so he just thought that this Taoist priest was a swagger again, sent him a little silver, and ignored it.
But Chang doesn't think so. She finally became Mrs. Tai, she was only in her thirties, and a lot of time had not passed, how could she die now, so she insisted that Xu Xian change her to Qingsong Garden, which has a pleasant scenery, and Xu Xian had to do it.
Everyone didn't have much hope, but on the third day, Chang's illness was getting better day by day, and within a month, he could get out of bed and walk around. Chang was overjoyed, so he completely believed the Taoist priest's words, and refused to take a step closer to the Changchun Pavilion.
In the eyes of the people in the house, some people began to discuss, saying that the Chang family forced the three concubines to death, and one of them was pregnant, which greatly damaged the luck of the Changchun Pavilion, which was originally a blessed land, and became an ominous place.
When Chang heard it with his own ears, the words had already spread outside, and Chang was furious, so he issued a strict order, and anyone who mentioned this matter again would be killed. The means are harsh, but it is too late.
Although the people outside didn't know exactly what Chang had done, they decided that this was a ruthless and jealous woman through rumors that she was ruthless and jealous. Fortunately, there are not a few jealous housemothers in Beijing, and Chang's has only become a momentary conversation.
Yiying remembered that after Zhao Qingyi heard about this in her previous life, she was also very scared and wanted to move out of the Changchun Pavilion, but she saw Xu Xian taking concubines one after another, afraid that others would pick up the benefits, so she put out her thoughts, and would rather set up a room of candles at night, and she couldn't sleep brightly, rather than move out.
She sighed secretly, Zhao Qingyi's obsession had already begun to emerge at that time.
She lowered her head and thought about things here, and over there Huichun and Hongxue had already chatted, discussing all the popular tricks in Beijing.
When the two heard her sigh, Hongxue turned her head, glanced at her, and said to Huichun: "This sister doesn't talk much, is she also serving your in-laws' wife with you?" ”
Huichun smiled and shook her head: "This is the Zhilan who is serving next to the eldest girl in our family, her temperament is a little calmer, but she is still doing things safely, don't worry about her." It was already a familiar tone.
Yiying saw that Huichun secretly glanced at her, and it was not good not to speak, so she smiled and said: "I was only interested in watching the good scenery of the Hou Mansion, and I was fascinated, but I forgot about the two sisters......"
Hongxue heard Yiying praise the Hou Mansion, and her face also showed a bit of pride: "Our Hou Mansion was built by Emperor Taizu himself, and it expanded a lot when the first emperor was here, so naturally there are good scenery everywhere." Sister Zhilan, since you are the person next to Miss Zhao, you will have to enter the mansion together in the future, and I will say hello to Mrs. Tai in a while, I can take you around this Hou Mansion, and I want you to be familiar with it. The tone softened a lot.
Huichun listened and nodded again and again, isn't this the purpose of the two of them, this Hongxue is very enthusiastic.
Yi Ying also nodded and thanked her, but she complained bitterly in her heart. She just said casually, what does this Hongxue do like to show off, if you talk about the scenery, the scenery of the eldest princess's mansion is several times better than this, and she was tired of seeing the Hou Mansion in her previous life, and now she is really not interested at all.
