116 Honor and disgrace
"Mother, please get up." At the suggestion of the noble Qin, he hugged the qin and helped the kneeling Xiao Wang, his eyes were worried, and he couldn't wait for Xiao Wang's complaint to complain, so he couldn't wait to ask, "What happened at home?" ”
Xiao Wang was stunned, but the mother expected that there was something at home, so she couldn't help but hide her face and cry, and said with added fuel and vinegar to the matter: "...... What messy relatives dare to throw their faces at my son, this is not to put nobles in their eyes! Nobleman, Baoyu is the younger brother of a nobleman, he was born with great creation, and the future of our Jia family depends on him! The girl of the Lin family looks down on Baoyu, doesn't she look down on our Jia family and the nobles? ”
"I heard that Princess Huairou was frightened, didn't you?" Qin Guiren was impatient with her evasion, and asked, "What happened to the princess?" Can the fetus be stable in the womb? ”
Xiao Wang's lips trembled, could it be that such a noble person who was favored by the emperor was not as good as a princess who married early? She said nervously, "I...... I...... I was in such a hurry that I didn't hear the follow-up. ”
"And what about later? Madam, didn't you send someone to Rongfu to condole? Qin Guiren said angrily, "The sign handed over by my mother three days ago, I still don't know about the princess's condition today?" ”
Xiao Wang said aggrievedly: "Nobleman, Baoyu's psychic treasure jade fell like this, I'm worried that something will go wrong with Baoyu." Besides, Baoyu is so fortunate to copy books, I take care of Baoyu's body, how can I have the energy to ask the princess how it is? She was bold enough to say, "Why should you care about her? Although the princess is the emperor's own daughter, she has already been married. The nobleman is deeply favored by the emperor, are you still afraid of her? Besides, I'm also a princess elder, but I'm just frightened, so I'll ask Baoyu to make amends for her! ”
They all say that they are favored by the emperor, but the noble status is so low, and the nobles know that if they have no children to live by, their lives will be like this - as the only one in the family who has entered the palace, the honor and disgrace are all tied to the Rong Mansion. Seeing that his stepmother was so self-aware, Qin Gui was angry, and immediately stroked his chest, and said in a trembling voice: "How about me, okay, the emperor said that he would come to me, and in a blink of an eye, he was intercepted by the new beauty who entered the palace." The palace said that I was going to fall out of favor, I thought about it, since I entered the palace, I have always been careful, pay attention step by step, and do not do anything to anger the emperor. Seeing that my wife handed over the sign, I guessed that there was something going on in the family, so I begged the queen to let me see my wife early. ”
The noble Jean has fallen out of favor?! Xiao Wang was shocked, how could it be?
Since Baoyu did something wrong, Mrs. should have taken Baoyu to take the blame as soon as possible, and sincerely compensated the princess, and came to the palace to see what I did! My wife should remember that I am walking on thin ice in the palace, and I don't ask anyone in my family to support me in the court, I just hope that I won't cause trouble and drag me back! The nobleman changed the topic and said without question.
This person who is dragging his feet, isn't he talking about Baoyu? Xiao Wang's face was blue and white, and he changed the topic forcefully: "The new beauties in the palace have faces like flowers, and they can pinch out the water when they are tender." How can a noble man compare with her in this? It's just that Israel is a person, and it won't last long, so the nobles should think about themselves as soon as possible! He glanced suggestively at Huqin.
This fool who can't figure it out!
Qin Guiren felt powerless, so he had to say to the left and right: "You all go down." ”
"Yes!" Baoqin and another honest-looking palace maid retreated, and before leaving, Baoqin glanced at Xiao Wang with a complicated expression, with an unknown expectation in her eyes that she might not even find herself.
The eyes of the noble qin were dark, this maid had a big heart.
Xiao Wang didn't know why, watched Qin Guiren come down in person, took her hand and said closely: "I'm not afraid of other people's jokes, I thought that when I was at home, my mother treated me very well, and our mother and son were very close." The mother is a rare clear person in the family, and there are some things that the daughter doesn't know whether to say or not. ”
The nobleman showed goodwill, Xiao Wang nodded again and again, and said lovingly: "After the nobleman enters the palace, my heart is empty, and I just wish that the nobleman is still at home." If you have anything to say, you might as well say it, and between mother and daughter, what can't you say? ”
Qin Guiren casually played with his long and luxurious nails, his eyes flashed with amazement, and slowly recalled: "I used to stay in the palace of the former queen for several years, and stayed in this palace for more than ten years...... I don't like a talented woman like me who is round and jade, and gentle and gentle. ”
"Maybe it was fresh at first, but the emperor spoiled me for a few days, and I quickly got tired of it. But the emperor still comes to me from time to time, listens to me play the piano, and talks to me. Most of them stay at night, but ...... But I was rarely lucky. Speaking of this, it can be regarded as involving the selfishness of the emperor and the concubines, and the Qin nobleman looked embarrassed, and only said this sentence, so he didn't emphasize it anymore.
"Nevertheless, on the second day, a reward like flowing water was sent into my palace, so everyone in the palace thought that I was very favored by the emperor. Later, many people learned from me, but none of them lasted long, everyone only said that I was the first, and the emperor was very special to me. ”
Xiao Wang said happily: "The emperor is really nostalgic, this is very beneficial to the nobles, why are the nobles not very happy?" ”
"The emperor likes the new and hates the old very much." Qin Guiren shook his head, "Let me ask you, since the emperor loves me, why didn't he promote me?" Why is it that none of my father and brother are prosperous? If the elder brother and Baoyu have not yet entered the ranks, they can restore their father's official position, isn't it a trivial matter? I tried to mention it, but the emperor didn't answer, and he didn't mean to restore my father's official position. Even my brother and Baoyu, the emperor never mentioned them, and only occasionally praised them when I mentioned them. But Hui Meiren was the daughter of a local petty official, and she only showed off yesterday that her father was going to enter Beijing as an official. And most of the time, the emperor only asks me about my eldest uncle, about my eldest cousin......"
"That's a noble man who hasn't given birth to a son and a half daughter yet!" Xiao Wang was anxious, "Nobleman, Baoqin is a good child, her family's deed of sale is here with me, you can only use her ...... with confidence."
Qin Guiren interrupted her words and said to herself: "Later, I thought about it carefully, every time I get a big reward, it is always because of my eldest cousin's meritorious service; Every time someone gives me no face, it's always because Baoyu has done something again. I think about it again, I have no position, no children, and no emperor's sincere favor, and I, a nobleman, am just a tool for the emperor to show his favor to the Rong Mansion. ”
The noble Qin smiled sadly, and Xiao Wang cried: "The noble man must not be presumptuous, the emperor is to the noble, the emperor is ...... to you" If people drink water and know themselves, how the emperor treats the nobles, the nobles know best. Xiao Wang immediately hugged her and cried: "My hard-working daughter, ......"
A hint of sarcasm flashed on the face of the noble Qin, "Since my honor and disgrace are tied to the Rong Mansion, then the honor and disgrace of the Jia Mansion are of course also in the Rong Mansion." If Mrs. and Baoyu really anger the people of Rongfu, they can hold both a noble person and a woman surnamed Jia. When I say that, can my wife understand? ”
"There is a noble person in Jiafu, not the capital of the wife to show off her power in the Rong Mansion!"
Xiao Wang's back was dripping with cold sweat.
Since the nobles in the palace have become more and more favored, she has indeed become more and more straight in front of her sister-in-law and others, and she has much more confidence. This time Baoyu's matter, she also insisted on not pleading guilty because of the little contempt for the princess in her heart.
Xiao Wang's heart was very resentful, but the form was stronger than people, and she was also a decisive person, so she immediately said: "After I leave the palace, I will take Baoyu to make amends to the princess!" ”
Only then did the noble qin show a comfortable smile. She stroked her lower abdomen and murmured, "The emperor still ...... with me occasionally I can still give birth, I will always get pregnant. ”
When Xiao Wang's family was about to retire, Qin Guiren looked at Baoqin who was standing on the side, and chatted with Xiao Wang: "Baoqin, how long have you been in the palace with me?" ”
Huqin curtled and said: "It's been fourteen years since I returned to the nobleman's words. ”
"How old were you when you entered the palace? A few more years in the palace? Qin Guiren smiled and asked her to squeeze her shoulder.
Wen Yin pursed his lips and smiled: "The noble man only asked the slave maid once a year ago, and now he forgot it?" It can be seen that the nobles say that they have a good memory, they all coax us. The slave maid was thirteen years old when she entered the palace, and as soon as she entered the palace, she was assigned to the nobleman's flowing water pavilion, and she had been serving the nobleman for two years. It's not as good as the deep friendship between Sister Baoqin and the nobles. ”
"Fifteen, it's not big. Serve well, and you will have a future in the future. Qin Guiren smiled and said to Xiao Wang, "It's been fourteen years since I entered the palace in a flash, and time flies so fast." My mother can still enter the palace once a month to see me, but Baoqin has to be separated from her family, and I can't bear it in my heart. I heard the queen mother say that a group of palace maids will be released in the palace in April, and Huqin is not young, I want to take this opportunity to let her go out to reunite with her parents, what does my mother think? ”
"Amitabha," Xiao Wang sighed, "Your noble man is really kind-hearted!" In this case, after I went back, I told Baoqin's family that she must be very happy! ”
When Baoqin knelt down to thank him, the nobleman smiled and said: "Baoqin will serve me for a trip, and the dowry is indispensable." and her family, who are also heroes, how can they be errands? Mother should be a good student and place them. ”
That is to put the whole family in the Zhuangzi, Xiao Wang thought, the noble is difficult in the palace, and the hugqin has been serving for more than ten years, and he must know a lot of Xinmi, but she can't let her make trouble for the nobleman.
So in April, he really went out of the palace, taking two boxes of himself and two boxes of dowry from the nobles. The family entered the Zhuangzi to do things, and the Baoqin family hated her for offending the master before being kicked out of the palace, and looted all her valuable things, and Baoqin had no dowry and silver, and was old again, and finally married a widowed wife and three children in the Zhuangzi.
After Xiao Wang's family entered the palace, Jia Zheng also went out.
Although his official position was taken away, Jia Zheng couldn't look down on him as a five-grade petty official, but he was embarrassed for a while, and he gradually let go. It just so happened that he had a few literary friends outside, and he talked in the teahouse bookstore almost every day, and Jia Zheng became more and more proud. There was nothing to do today, so Jia Zheng simply made an appointment with a friend and went to Moxianglou to see the paintings. 166 Reading Network
