Chapter 16: Scandal

The royal is a very peculiar storage zĂ i.

There are the most beautiful carved beams and paintings in the world, but the most filth and filth are buried under the splendid palace; Here are the most beautiful women in the world, and there are countless abandoned women; There are some of the best healers in the world, but there are also the most young people who die at birth.

In the midst of darkness and filth, it is very much imaginable; Looking at the resplendent of gold, it is actually the Shura Hell Field of human nature.

That's really not a good topic.

The third prince asked that question with a sense of nostalgia for his life experience, and as soon as he said it, he woke up, and Jia Yu gave such an answer, which was in line with his mind and made him wonder at the same time: Who does this person know his identity? Did you just say it casually or did it have a deep meaning? Could it have been sent by the crown prince or someone else?

As soon as he thought of the last possibility, the whole of the three princes became alert: "Nonsense, the most important concubine of the heavenly family."

"Although there is a difference between the elders and the young, the young and the young are orderly, but the virtuous and the foolish cannot be determined by the elders and the young." Jia Yu said softly, and the voice could only be heard by the two of them: "In the previous dynasty, Sejong ascended the crown prince with a virtuous mind."

Sejong of the previous dynasty replaced his brother with his good reputation and superb political skills, and finally ascended to the throne.

Speaking of which, it would be too explicit to say it, and this is really not the place to talk about such things in public. Jia Yu changed the topic casually: "Brother Huang has not been in Beijing for a long time, do you know about a strange thing that has happened in Beijing recently?" There is a temple in the north of the city, and the surrounding residents have recently said that there are strange ...... in the temple."

The third prince looked at him complicatedly, changed the topic cooperatively, and the two talked like a real pair of scholars who had just met. Jia Yu is a human being, and there is always something slightly better than the current three princes, and the more they talk, the more they agree, and when they break up, they agree to meet here next time.

When Jia Yu returned home, it was close to curfew, and the little servants came up to serve, Jia Yu thought about talking to his father about today's affairs, and casually asked the little servant to hold the fan: "Where is the master now?"

The fan peeked at the master, and replied: "Go back to the uncle, today the master went to the wife, saying that if the uncle comes back late, he doesn't have to go to ask for peace." He also said: "In the afternoon, the master inspected the second master's knowledge and praised the second master's article for doing a good job." There is another sentence that he dare not say, one by one, the old man said that the second master "will become a great weapon in the future, and glorify the ancestors." ”

That said, it sounded like the uncle was better than the second master now, and he couldn't compare with it in the future.

Jia Yu paused, turned in one direction and walked in another direction, and said flatly: "Since the old lady is considerate, it is not mine to disturb, then go back to Ningbi Courtyard first."

When the biological father and son met, they still had to use the word "disturb", Jia Yu only felt that his mouth was bitter, and secretly swore that he would never treat his Hu'er like this in the future!

But when he arrived at the Ningbi Courtyard where he lived, Jia Yu didn't want to go in anymore, and after thinking about it, he walked towards his grandmother's courtyard.

The old lady was born in a clear stream, and the scholarly family will not believe in the nonsense that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, and the subset of the girl's qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, and history is all to be learned, like the daughter of the Jia family in the previous life, she can't handle housework internally, and she can't distinguish the situation externally, and people who shouldn't come and go are very rare, and she will only be a woman with red poetry, to say a vicious word, the Jia family is raising a daughter, and it is clearly raising a thin horse!

The old lady comes from a serious scholarly family, has a very good upbringing, and her vision is no worse than that of a man, and even more vicious because of her experience in the world.

The old lady hadn't slept yet, and she was very happy to see her grandson: "Yu'er is here, why did you come back so late?"

"Grandmother, ...... today" Jia Yu told his grandmother about today's events, did not hide the identity of the third prince, and focused on the personal character and ability of the third prince, at the end, he asked tentatively: "Grandmother, do you look ......at it......?"

The old lady interrupted her grandson's words without waiting for him to finish, and called the maid Danju: "Bring that Huanghuali carved moon flower box to your uncle."

Tan Ju was puzzled: "But, old lady, that's the ...... in it."

"You just have to bring it." The old lady just laughed, but when Jia Yu got the box and was about to open it to see what it was, she pressed his hand and said, "Go back and look again, I'm tired too, you can go back and rest."

So the confused Jia Yu was "driven out" by his grandmother and stood in a daze in the moonlight as clear as water.

The moonlight was really bright, and Jia Yu couldn't hold back his curiosity, so he opened the box by the moonlight, there was only a piece of paper in it, Jia Yu pinched it up and looked at it, and the names and quantities of tea, wild geese, silk, antiques, gold and silver and other things were written in hairpin flowers.

Jia Zheng's dowry list, why did his grandmother prepare the dowry for him is what the maids of the house should do, not what he should do as a big man...... Wait, isn't he in charge?

Grandmother is telling him, it's okay to make friends, don't stand in line? But...... As for using such a subtle method?

For the first time in his life, Jia Yu went back to Ningbi Courtyard with an embarrassed face.

Jia Hu has a lot of small sleep, Zhang Xian just coaxed him to sleep and personally shook a fan for him. Jia Yu couldn't find Zhang Xian in the main house, and when he ran away from the house, he saw this scene, so he casually threw the list at the end of the bed, and reached out to grab his son's little hands and feet.

Zhang Xian knocked a fan on her husband's hand, and said angrily: "It took me a lot of effort to coax him to sleep, and you came to make trouble again!"

Jia Yu was confident: "I saw this kid either eating or sleeping today, it's still early, I'll play with him, anyway, he will sleep tomorrow." He has to get up early tomorrow to go to court, but Jia Hu is only more than three years old and favored, but he doesn't have to get up early.

Zhang Xian didn't bother to pay attention to his childishness, but she no longer stopped him from touching the child's little face, picked up the list he threw on the bed and glanced at it, covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled: "Uncle, is this going to share my worries?" I really can't ask for it, if I don't know if we change our position, I'll go to the court on behalf of the uncle? ”

Looking at the beauty under the lamp, the more beautiful she looks, Zhang Xian's smile and her eyes are crooked, Jia Yu only felt that the blood was gushing up, and he reached out to scratch her armpits: "Okay, even you come to laugh at me, look at how I fix you tonight, uncle!"

The maids had already hid out, and Zhang Xian was so rubbed by him that she didn't dare to speak: "Doing, doing death, Hu'er is still there......"

Jia Yucai didn't care about that, picked up his wife and went to the main house, only to be so ashamed that Zhang Xian's head was buried in his chest. Jia Hu was woken up by the heat in a daze without his mother's fan, his eyes opened, he kicked the small quilt, turned over and went to sleep.

Hmm, there seems to be a strange sound just now...... Xiao Jiahu thought in a daze, and then seemed to hear someone coming lightly to continue to fan and cover the quilt, and the cool breeze came, so he continued to fall asleep again.

Early the next morning, Jia Yu got up and went to the court refreshed, leaving Zhang Xian alone to pound the bed in shame and anger.

The day went exceptionally smoothly, Jia Yu met with the three princes smoothly, both of them were very "stiff", and it seemed that the three princes also investigated him. However, half a month later, when he saw "Huang Cheng", who was dressed more low-key, come as promised, Jia Yu's heart finally let go.

The two are still referred to by pseudonyms, meet once a month or every other month, and are polite and courteous to each other. Jia Yu thought clearly, he just had to leave the impression that he was not an enemy in the third prince's name, the current Jia family didn't need to earn anything from the dragon's work, and he was not a faint monarch today, it was not a problem to live for more than ten years, it was enough for him to do things honestly and safely, and he would die faster if he stood in line.

This year is the thirty-seventh year of Xiyuan, Jia Yu is twenty years old, Jia Zheng is sixteen years old, Jia Minxu is four and a half years old, and Jia Huxu is three and a half years old.

In October, Jia Zheng married Wang, and the wedding was not particularly grand, but according to the rules, this made Shi hold his stomach. So after the tea ceremony the next day, Shi said to Zhang Xian: "I'm also old, and the housekeeper can't help you much, and it's too hard for you to take care of the house alone, the second family can give you a hand when you pass the door, don't be stingy, teach her more."

Zhang Xian gently blocked back: "Where is the old wife, the daughter-in-law walks with you and others still treat you as the sister-in-law of the daughter-in-law, but what the wife said is very true, the younger brother and sister will also have to manage their own yard in the future, it is better to learn early."

Shi almost fell back in anger, what she meant was that the Wang family could sit on an equal footing with Zhang Xian, so that she could join forces with the Wang family to suppress Zhang Xian. But what Zhang Xian said not only implied that the Wang family didn't understand that the housekeeper couldn't even manage his own yard, but also implied that the second room would be divided into separate ones in the future, how could she stand it? At that moment, his face was about to sink and become angry, but he remembered that today was a good day for the second son, so he could only smile reluctantly: "That's right, you can help her more."

Wang is also a big heart, but God doesn't help her, she has only been over for more than two months, and she has not even touched the side of the housekeeper's right to get pregnant, almost at the same time, Zhang Xian also found out that she was pregnant for nearly three months, and only moved the precious things that the old lady liked to have a car to Ningbi Courtyard, and the Wang family, who could only get a fraction of it, was envious and jealous.

Jia Yu is a little listless, without him, this one should be Jia Lian, but thinking of the son and daughter-in-law in the previous life, Jia Yu is very guilty.

After coming and going, Zhang Xian vaguely knew his thoughts, and teased him: "I don't know if it's a boy, are you worried that he has a daughter-in-law and forgets his father?"

Jia Yu thought to himself: I want him to marry that Wang family girl, I am stupid! But when I think about it like this, my mood is much better, and I no longer show my face at Zhang Xian's stomach.

There are many things that no one can handle, and Shi can't be busy alone, so the old lady asked Feng Huanhuan to assist in management, so that Shi couldn't get a sum of money from the public into his private treasury as expected, and secretly complained about how many times the old lady was nosy.

The days came to June in a flash, Zhang Xian's delivery date was approaching, and Jia Yu was getting more and more nervous day by day.

On that day, Shi took Wang, who was already pregnant, to the old lady to ask Anga to see her daughter, Zhang Xian used to walk back and forth between her own yard and the old lady's yard every day to avoid the child being too big and difficult to give birth in the future, and then the month was old and changed to two or three days, and this day was also just a little rest at the old lady's place. Two generations of mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law and two pregnant women are naturally sitting and talking. Shi Shi saw that the big girls around her daughter were all sixteen or seventeen years old, so she said: "The maids around Min'er are also older, so it's better to let them out, and choose a few more clever □ and then be promoted to the big girl."

This is a normal thing, and Zhang Xian agrees: "What Mrs. said is very true, it is better to pick a few from the second-class maids and let them teach a few of them, so as not to wait for them to go out and let my sister be wronged."

Several of Jia Min's maids were either blushing or calm, but only one of them turned pale, trembled all over, and knelt down: "Old lady, wife, eldest grandmother and second grandmother, be gracious, slave maid, slave maid can't go out, slave maid has ...... already has a child, it's the second master's! ”

With a snap, the Dingyao teacup in Shi's hand fell to the ground and shattered; Zhang Xian was dumbfounded, Wang's body shook, grabbed the handrail and didn't fall backwards, looking at Jia Min with the same eyes as a knife!
