Chapter 236: Change of Fortune (Subscription Requested)
Rongguo Mansion can't save things!
As long as the subordinates who are on an errand in the mansion can easily find out the rumors that the second wife has fallen a lot of things because of the New Year's ceremony.
Several mothers-in-law guarding the back door were peeling peanuts while gossiping about the house.
"The second wife was furious yesterday, but she scared the maid on the other side of the second room!"
"Hey, the second wife is not in charge of the house now, and she still wants the aunt who married outside to give a heavy gift to the second room, how is this possible?"
"It's not that the heavy gifts given by my aunt's wife were all in the second room's pocket, and suddenly there was no psychological discomfort, and there was a big room to receive a heavy gift foil, and the second wife broke out!"
"Hehe, Mrs. Gu is not stupid, the big house master is so powerful, he is very popular in the officialdom, he is the powerful helper of the uncle, if you don't care about the relationship with the big house, do you want to continue to take advantage of the second room?"
"Yes, there is no such reason in this world, and the second wife is too greedy!"
“……”
There was a commotion in the house, and all kinds of miscellaneous rumors were heard, but the eldest man didn't care, the reaction of the second room was extremely embarrassing, so there was no need for him to continue to step on a few feet.
has her own Jia Mu to clean up Mrs. Wang, can Jia Min also be arranged by her at will?
Sure enough, within a few days, I heard that Jia Mu called Mrs. Wang faceless, and I didn't know what reason she found.
Time passes slowly, and the New Year has passed in the blink of an eye.
During the Chinese New Year, the entire court almost stopped operating, and there was no need for a major event, and the courtiers gathered together to stare at each other, and the eldest lord was also rare to be idle for a few days.
It's still the same as before, but it's just to worship the ancestors at home, go to the palace on the first day of the new year to pay New Year's greetings to the emperor and other activities, and the rest of the time is basically spent in eating and drinking.
In the blink of an eye, it was the tenth day of the first month, and the old man went out early on this day.
In a few days, it will be the Lantern Festival, and then there will be a lantern festival in the capital as in the past, whether it is the common people or the sons and daughters of powerful families, they will go out to enjoy the lanterns.
It was a lively and festive festival, but for the officials of Shuntian Prefecture, it was definitely a hard day that made people feel their scalps tingle.
Maintaining order, strictly preventing accidents, and other things are enough to make thousands of officials of the Shuntian Mansion so busy that they don't even have time to eat a bite of food.
The eldest lord is also the first time to experience this, but fortunately, there is a precedent to follow Xiao Gui Cao, and he will add some regulations according to the actual situation, and call the Shuntian Mansion to work early.
"Master, there is an urgent matter in the house, please go back!"
was busy in the dark, and the henchmen around him suddenly came to the front and whispered.
"Well, what emergency can there be in the house?"
The eldest man frowned, didn't move and asked directly: "Do you figure it out, I'm very busy now!" ”
"It seems that there is a letter from the palace, which is related to Miss Yuanda!"
Jia Jie, who was following him, looked left and right, and whispered: "The old lady and the old lady in the second room are so anxious that they are like ants on a hot pot, please go back quickly to discuss things!" ”
Something about Yuanchun?
The eldest lord nodded, got up and said hello to his officials, and hurried back to the Rong Mansion.
"Old lady, what happened to Yuan Chun?"
When I came to Rongqing Hall, I saw that the atmosphere in the room was depressing, and Jia Mu and Zheng Lao Er were there, but they were all gloomy and ugly, and they asked directly.
"Boss, there was an accident in the palace, Yuan Chun was cut off by the queen and left in Kunning Palace!"
Seeing the eldest master coming, Mother Jia waved her hand to drive the maid in the house away, and said in a deep voice: "In a short time, Yuan Chun is afraid that it will be difficult to get ahead!" ”
"What happened, and what happened?"
The eldest lord found a chair and sat down directly, and asked unceremoniously: "Was it deliberately done by the queen, or was it calculated by others?" ”
"I don't really know ...... this."
Speaking of this, Jia Mu showed a trace of bitterness on her face, and originally said the little information.
It turned out that not long ago, a father-in-law who was out of the palace suddenly came to the door secretly, and in addition to asking for five hundred taels of silver, he told Jia's mother a very bad news.
Yuan Chun was asked by the queen to be a female history just yesterday!
The father-in-law who came to the door was entrusted by Yuan Chun to bring the news to Rongguo Mansion, and Jia's mother and Zhenglao and his wife were suddenly stunned by this sudden change, and they were at a loss for a while.
"Boss, do you have any way to find out about the collective situation?"
After explaining the matter, Jia Mu directly made a request: "Let's see what went wrong, and if there is a remedy!" ”
"I really can't help this!"
The eldest lord spread his hands and said helplessly: "This kind of news is definitely not a secret in the palace, but how can I contact the palace in a doorway, even if I want to ask for help, I don't have a clue for a while!" ”
Hearing this, Jia Mu's face stiffened, and she asked directly: "Aren't those old friends of yours related to the palace?" ”
"Old lady, you don't know what's going on with my friends!"
The eldest man shook his head and said: "It's no problem to find out the general news, but the news in the palace is not good to inquire indiscriminately, and if you accidentally have a lot of trouble, the old lady should think of other ways!" ”
"Big brother, Yuan Chun is your niece!"
Zheng Lao Er suddenly spoke, and said with a sad and indignant face; "Can't you help Yuanchun for the sake of your niece?"
"I said second, why do you think I have the ability to meddle in court affairs?"
The eldest lord has no good airway; "Instead of begging me, it's better to beg your second brother, Wang Ziteng, he should be able to find out the specific news!"
"Yes, yes, I'll go back and ask!"
Mrs. Wang got up suddenly, hurriedly walked out of Rongqing Hall, and didn't say hello to Mother Jia, obviously her mind was completely confused, otherwise she wouldn't be so unwise.
Jia Mu was not angry, but just glanced deeply at the eldest master, and said indifferently: "Boss, do you really have no way?" ”
"What can I do?"
The eldest lord asked unceremoniously: "Is the relationship in the palace so easy to make friends, but there should be some ways on Jia Zhen's side of Ningfu, why don't you call him over and ask?" ”
"No, it's not good!"
Without waiting for Jia Mu to speak, Jia Zheng hesitated and said, "It's not good if the news spreads!" ”
Tut!
It's just to save face, what's good or not, things have developed to this level, and the most important thing at the moment is the way out for Yuan Chun.
The eldest master glanced at this guy lightly and looked back at Jia Mu.
"Come on, go to Ning Mansion and invite Brother Zhen'er!"
Mother Jia obviously knew the priorities, and hurriedly ordered her henchmen to go to Ningfu to invite someone.
"Old lady, Uncle Forgiveness, why is Uncle Zheng so urgent?"
Jia Zhen hurriedly came, with a smell of wine and rouge on her body, this guy is really good, and then it is time to start having fun.
"Brother Zhen'er, do you have any friendships with several managers in the palace?"
Although she didn't like it, Jia Mu didn't say anything, and asked directly; "Yuan Chun has had something happen in the palace, and I want to figure out what's going on!"
"What, Yuan Chun had an accident in the palace?"
Jia Zhen was startled, and her head, which was still a little confused, immediately sobered up, and hurriedly asked, "What happened, does it matter?" ”
Looking at the nervous look on his face, he didn't understand how much he cared about Yuan Chun, but the eldest master knew that this guy was afraid that Yuan Chun's matter was too big and implicated Ning Mansion.
"Yuan Chun was suddenly asked by the queen to be a female history!"
Obviously, Jia Mu also knew Jia Zhen's thoughts, and said in an indifferent tone: "I don't know what the situation in the palace is, I heard that you have some connections in the palace, so I want to ask you to help investigate, and if possible, do some remedial measures, maybe Yuanchun still has a chance!" ”
"That's it!"
Jia Zhen was obviously relieved, and after a little deep groaning, she nodded and responded: "Don't worry, old lady, I do know some people in the palace, so I'll go back and investigate!" ”
As he spoke, he turned around and swept the last words of the eldest master, and left in a hurry.
The time to inquire about the news is not short, and the eldest master naturally can't stay in Rongqing Hall all the time to wait, and after sitting for a while, he will leave and leave, and the affairs of the Shuntian Mansion are busy.
As for Yuanchun's matter, since the queen intervened, it means that she is also aware of it today, and it may even be the act of today's instructions.
The eldest lord's hand couldn't reach into the palace, and he didn't plan to meddle in this matter.
Not to mention that Yuan Chun has been a female historian in the queen's palace for many years in the original book, and he can't directly intervene in today's harem affairs at the moment.
Unless he is willing to defect to Prince Zhongshun or one of the King of Yizhong, and then fish Yuan Chun out of the palace directly through their hands, he can only sneak into the palace in person to take people on the way.
These two choices are not very good for the eldest master.
It's not that he is cold-blooded and ruthless, he has no family affection with Yuan Chun, this Yuan girl is seriously influenced by Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang, and she is an out-and-out power creature.
There may still be a chance to stay in the palace, if the eldest master finds a way to take her out of the palace, her so-called great creation is basically hopeless.
Maybe, the eldest master tried his best to get people, but in the end he couldn't please him.
This kind of thing, before Yuan Chun himself expressed his attitude, the eldest master would not take action easily, and it was impossible to put the entire big house in a dangerous situation because of Yuan Chun alone.
Fortunately, the two princes are very secretive, neither Jia's mother, Mrs. Wang nor Jia Zheng know, otherwise they may have to sell the eldest lord in exchange for Yuanchun's 'great creation'.
In this regard, the eldest master has a clear understanding!
On the side of Shuntian Mansion, he wanted to arrange the precautionary task for the Lantern Festival, and he was so busy that he didn't know the passage of time at all, and when he returned to Rongfu, Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang's faces were long, as if it was his fault that something happened in Yuanchun.
Knowing that they were uncomfortable, the eldest lord didn't bother to care, so he simply stayed in Rongqing Hall and waited for the news, and he didn't know that Mrs. Wang said that she didn't say anything about moving Wang Ziteng after returning to Wang's house, since she didn't want to take the initiative to speak, the eldest lord didn't force it, and the news from Jia Zhen's side was the same.
