118 Wang's Family (Catching Insects)

Xiao Wang asked about Huairou's stomach with concern, and learned that there was no major problem, so he only recited the Buddha: "Amitabha!" Buddha blessed. Fortunately, my niece and daughter-in-law are fine, otherwise it would not be too much for me to be killed. He added: "I'm really sorry for the previous incident, I'm here to make amends for my family Baoyu to the princess." It's just that Baoyu was beaten by the master, and now he is still lying on the bed, and he can't come in person. I hope that my sister-in-law will not care. ”

Liu waved his hand again and again, "Huairou's body is not so delicate. It's just that Baoyu's temperament has to be changed. Fortunately, it is my own family, if it is some princess outside, it is not as easy to talk as we Huairou. ”

Is this a page? Xiao Wang's family was overjoyed, and suddenly heard the sister-in-law say: "It's just that brother and sister, Baoyu has never been able to talk to Hu'er and Lian'er, so let's take him into the house less in the future, just a few of our mothers to talk." ”

Xiao Wang smiled: "Baoyu is also big, so it's not good to mess around." ”

Liu smiled implicitly. At the end, he served tea to the guests: "Things have been busy lately, but fortunately Yu'er has shared my worries." It's just that she's young and can't hold back the scene, I'm afraid she's going to come to me now. ”

As soon as the words ended, a maid said, "My cousin asks my wife to come over and discuss the matter." ”

Xiao Wang had no choice but to retire.

I thought I could sit back and relax in the future, but after more than a month, one day Baoyu was clamoring to see Sister Lin, and Xiao Wang was shocked to find that in the past month, my sister-in-law had never posted to herself. Ask again, the Rong Mansion held a peach blossom banquet just a few days ago, and the princess recovered and came out. Because it was the first banquet after the New Year, the relatives and friends who had made good friends came, but Duxiao Wang did not go.

After that, Xiao Wang's family went to Rongfu several times, but either they were hung out for a long time, and the sister-in-law was late, or they simply said that they were busy and had no time, so they avoided it.

If something really happened to the princess, she would admit it. But she obviously heard that the princess only took a few doses of decoction and was fine, why was the sister-in-law so unforgiving? This time, Xiao Wang, who didn't even eat a few pots of tea in Rongfu, didn't see anyone, held his breath in his heart.

The green silk carriage drove on Ningrong Street, and the wheels were ringing. The general walked out of Ningrong Street, and the little Wang in the carriage suddenly said loudly: "Go to the palace!" ”

The groom said "hey", and the carriage turned a corner, heading for a completely different road from the return to Jiafu.

The "palace" in the mouth of this little Wang family is not another family, it is her cousin, Wang Ziteng's family. It turned out that Wang Ziteng married this daughter to Jia Zheng, under the pretense that the Jia and Wang families were rein-laws, and after Xiao Wang's marriage, Wang Ziteng's wife Yuan sent many posts and invited her to come to the house to contact her feelings.

It's a pity that once the family was separated, relatives and friends were estranged. Because of the situation, Xiao Wang's came to the door, and Yuan's was not easy to avoid, but Xiao Wang's name was no longer on the list of guests who enjoyed flowers in summer and snow in winter.

Hearing that Jia Zheng's step-room came to the door, Yuan's heart was also wondering. This person has always been arrogant, and he came a few times in his early years, and when the nobles of Qin got up and their hearts were high, they looked down on their royal family. Now that you're here again, don't you have something to ask for?

It's really not the heart of the Yuan family's villain, it's really that the little Wang family is indeed a person who can't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.

Entering the palace, I saw pavilions and pavilions along the way, majestic and severe, simple and atmospheric; The flowers and trees are sparse, and the unmelted snow in the courtyard is all over the ground; Looking around, the servants were in a hurry, and they were very busy.

When he inquired, he learned that it was the prince who had ascended to the control of the nine provinces and was ordered to go out of Beijing to check the borders, so the whole family was packing up their things and preparing to leave, so they were naturally busy.

If you want to talk about the change of Wang Ziteng's official position, there is another hidden secret.

Prince Tengyuan was the envoy of the Jingying Festival, in charge of the safety of the capital, and this position was not competent for the emperor's confidants. It's just that he saw that the emperor's temples were full of white frost, and he was no longer full of anger when he spoke, and a few princes under his knees, but they were all strong and strong, and he was eyeing that position, so he had strange thoughts in his heart.

This person is also smart, and he doesn't know which prince he falls to, but in private, he hooks up with several princes and allows them to provide convenience at a specific time.

And Emperor Chengping is indeed old.

Everyone has to be old, can it be that if you become an emperor, you can live forever? That's not how it works. Although "long live the emperor, long live, long live", since ancient times, no emperor has lived to live to long live. Don't say long live, it's hard to be 100 years old.

So like all emperors, after being an emperor for more than 20 years, Emperor Chengping entered his old age - suspicion, jealousy, and even began to pursue immortality frantically.

But he wasn't confused. Or rather, he's not old enough to be old and confused.

If Jia Hu is the Heshi Bi left to him by the first emperor, then Wang Ziteng is the pearl that Emperor Chengping found in a pile of gravel. If Jia Hu is a person who can only have the Heshi Bi by virtue of his own ability, and has become a person who can become an emperor if he has the Heshi Bi, then Wang Ziteng is an ordinary or even ordinary courtier - capable, but the brilliance of the pearl needs the appreciation of the emperor.

Therefore, Emperor Chengping is jealous of Jia Hu, very jealous, more jealous than anyone in the world, and even everyone who intersects with Jia Hu He is paying close attention. As for Wang Ziteng, he is undoubtedly more at ease. This can be seen from the fact that Prince Teng Ming has an in-law relationship with Jia Hu, but he still serves as the envoy of the Jingying Festival.

However, Jia Hu, the courtier he was afraid of and suspicious, didn't make any moves, but Wang Ziteng, a henchman, stabbed him in the back.

How important is the position of the envoy of the Jingying Festival, Emperor Chengping naturally will not let this "henchman" who is not a confidant occupy it, so the prince was promoted.

The control of the nine provinces is an errand that offends people, it has great power and high rank, but the Beijing officials are half a level higher than the local officials by default. Another one, the capital is the center of power, far away from the capital, but it rises and falls. This is not a good thing for Wang Ziteng, especially when he wants to get involved in taking the heir.

Of course, this is a wonderful move for Emperor Chengping.

As an emperor, such as Kangxi, the more people come, the softer they are - or the more they pay attention to reputation. But the older Emperor Chengping gets, the harder his heart becomes, and his reputation is good enough, so he doesn't care about a little flaw. Not only is he hard-hearted, but he's becoming more and more cautious.

How could the person who betrayed him be easily let go?

Emperor Chengping prepared the fate of Lord Wang early.

As for the emperor's thoughts, does the king know about it?

Although Wang Ziteng's contact with several princes is very secretive, although the only people in the know are Wang Ziteng himself and the princes himself, although the surface work is very good...... But just because the emperor transferred himself out of this position, Wang Ziteng had enough reason to be suspicious.

If you don't rise early, you don't rise late, but you rise when you're being co-opted, don't you know, what is it?

Since ancient times, no one who has been an emperor is really tolerant and generous. Only those who have a strong desire for power are motivated enough to fight their way to the throne, and they are often the least able to bear the coveting of the throne under their ass.

But Emperor Chengping was lenient and ...... Besides, he didn't really do anything! After being appointed, he confessed the names of all the princes and their demands, saying that he wanted to get more information, but he didn't have time to tell the emperor yet......

But none of this can save Wang Ziteng from anxiety. He shut himself in his study, sleepless, thinking day and night, and then he didn't go.

The anxiety reached its peak after the letter from the Xue family.

When he saw Aunt Xue's letter saying that Xue Pan had killed people and begged him to use the power of the Wang family to settle it, Wang Ziteng laughed directly and was angry.

Xue Pan: You can, why don't you go to heaven?

Wang Ziteng himself is still difficult to protect, how can he be in the mood to pay attention to these things.

However, Wang Ziteng ignored it, which does not mean that the matter has not been resolved. Soon, he received a letter from Jia Yucun, the prefect of Jinling, who said in general, "The nephew's business is over, don't worry about it." He sneered, and burned the letter. This Jia Yucun is not an honest person, so vague, there must be a hidden secret. Wang Ziteng didn't bother to care, but another letter from Aunt Xue changed his mind.

is a person who has no eyes, and he will not ask someone to do things when he is busy getting up to take up his post when someone else is promoted, not to mention that Xiao Wang is a fairly shrewd person. After learning the reason, Xiao Wang was not in a hurry, and only smiled: "It's not the right time for me to come, don't delay my brother taking office!" He complained again: "My brother is going to go out of Beijing, and my sister-in-law has sent someone to tell me that I am in a hurry and I haven't even brought a congratulatory gift." It's time to fight! It's time to fight! ”

Hehe, not how close a relative, as for it? Besides, I told my relatives everywhere who were not on the business card that my lord had been promoted and was going to leave Beijing, and people might think that the Wang family was so frivolous. Yuan Shi was so slanderous, but he explained with a smile on his face: "I only came down a few days ago, and I just sent someone to deliver a letter to Xue's house in Jinling, and I haven't had time to tell my relatives and friends here." ”

"The Xue family? But the Xue family of 'good year and heavy snow'? Xiao Wang asked with interest.

This is what is said to be an official talisman circulating on the face of Jinling officials: "Jia is not fake, Baiyu is a horse for Tangjin." Afang Palace, three hundred miles, can't live in a history of Jinling. The East China Sea lacked a white jade bed, and the Dragon King invited King Jinling. In a good year, there is a lot of snow, and pearls are like earth and gold. They allude to the four major families of Jinling, Jia, Shi, Wang, and Xue.

Thinking of the four major families in Jinling, I can't help but sigh: everyone was originally a nouveau riche, but now they have their own opportunities.

The Jia family is still the most prominent, and even more prominent, everyone is guessing, maybe when Lord Jia attacks the title, the Jia family will be the fourth generation of princes. It is said that "three generations look at food, four generations see through, and five generations read poetry and books", and when it comes to Jia Hu's generation, it is already the fourth generation. If the next generation also excels in the imperial examination and does not fall into the prestige of the ancestors, the Jia family can be regarded as a family.

The historian is a double marquis, and he is also famous in Beijing; The Wang family has a prince Teng, and the rest are not used; As for the Xue family, they have been in Jinling. The head of the Xue family died early, leaving only one son, and he still doesn't know what his temperament is.

"It's this Xue family," Yuan said with a smile, "My sister-in-law is married to his family, and I haven't seen him for many years, and I don't know how." ”

Xiao Wang couldn't help but persuade: "Although we can't meet in person, the letter can be expected." What's more, when you go to Jinling, you can visit her. ”

What feelings can the sister-in-law have? Yuan said with a smile: "You don't know, Mrs. Xue wrote last time that she wanted to move her family to Beijing to visit us old relatives, and by the way, she would send the daughter of the Xue family named Baochai to serve as a waiter." My lord is going to leave Beijing...... Alas! ”

I haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and when I finally met in person, the Wang family had to leave Beijing, which is really unfortunate!

Xiao Wang persuaded: "Why should my sister-in-law be discouraged, if the Xue family can settle in Beijing, there will be a time to meet in the future." What's more, I don't know where the Xue family is now. If you can arrive before the sister-in-law leaves, wouldn't everyone be happy when the sister-in-law misses each other! ”

Yuan Shi was half sighing and half funny, "It's hard to have both worlds." ”

Although it is a pity, in Yuan's heart, the old man has been promoted, which makes her happier than any relative.

Xiao Wang looked at the glory on his sister-in-law's face, and said half-sourly: "People are in good spirits when they are happy, and their sister-in-law looks more than ten years younger." Alas, if my lord had half the talent of his cousin, I wouldn't have to worry about it. ”

Yuan's showed off, he was satisfied, and when he heard the words, he hurriedly asked, Xiao Wang's told him, "Sister-in-law, you have a fair word, the two families have the same father, and I am also the elder of my nephew and daughter-in-law. ”

Listening to the chatter and complaints of this sister-in-law who was still in the fifth suit, Yuan kindly mentioned: "Just now you said that Baoyu smashed the jade for that Miss Lin?" ”

Xiao Wang said angrily: "Yes! Miss Lin looked soft and weak, and she didn't expect that she had a tough personality, but when she told a story to coax Baoyu, she dared to quarrel with her elders. ”

"What's the story you told?" Yuan asked curiously. Before Xiao Wang finished speaking, she understood. I admired in my heart: I didn't say anything about being humiliated, but I dared to come forward when my elders insulted my ancestors, this Lin girl sounds like a filial piety. The older woman naturally has a good impression of the filial child, and before they met, the Yuan family had a love for the girl Nalin.

As the saying goes: the dead are greater. Mrs. Lin's bones are not cold, and Xiao Wang, as a sister-in-law, can't listen to the Yuan family anymore when she arranges the dead sister-in-law like this. She couldn't help but dislike it, and said angrily: "You coax Baoyu, what are you doing with Miss Lin and Mrs. Lin?" ”

Baoyu is a person with great creation, can Miss Lin compare with him? Xiao Wang didn't realize it, and he still argued for himself.

Yuan didn't want to say more to her, so he said: "You said that your sister-in-law actually let a cousin take care of the house, but you don't want to think about it, Miss Lin is a foreign surname, but she is in charge of the Rong Mansion, what is your sister-in-law's mind." You are a bully when you are Miss Lin, but the Rongfu is supporting Miss Lin! ”

Serve tea to guests.

Xiao Wang's family walked out of the palace in a daze, and her heart was extremely humiliated: she had already bowed to the princess, did she still bow to the little girl surnamed Lin!

Not to mention how the Xiao Wang family was sad and angry, just talking about the Xue family, Xiao Wang's was actually in one sentence.

However, a few days later, someone from the Xue family said that Mrs. Xue and her children were about to enter Beijing. 166 Reading Network
