Chapter 24: The Beginning and the End

It is not unusual for the Li family to be the first to come to Zhiyun early in the morning to say goodbye, although she has never arrived late in the past. But what happened last night, Zhiyun didn't want to hide it from her, if she didn't come today, it would be abnormal.

"Xing'er's cheap maid took the opportunity to accompany Gege to incense, and actually met with a foreign man privately, the concubine just taught her a few words, and before she had time to punish, the cheap maid committed suicide by throwing herself into the well, hey, Jingrou is not young, Xing'er is her personal girl, the concubine is worried that it will hurt Jingrou, and it will also hurt the reputation of our palace, so she didn't publicize this ugly thing, and gave her brother and sister-in-law a few taels of silver, so that Xing'er can be safe."

"It's just that Jingrou is still young and hasn't experienced anything, because she saw the death of her personal slave and maid, she felt uncomfortable, so she was frightened and fell ill, and the concubine asked her to cultivate in the room, and then drink a few pairs of soothing soup, it would be okay to think about it, but I never thought that it would alarm Fujin ......"

Li Shi sat down with low eyebrows, and his tone was also gentle and soft, "Forgive the concubine for saying something disrespectful, it is a good thing for Fujin to be kind, but after all, we are here after all, and this access control is better to be strict, otherwise, those little girls always show up and run out one by one, and when others see it, they still think that there are no rules in our palace." ”

Zhiyun listened casually, and saw that Li's words were accusing the women of the palace for not letting the women in the palace go out, and there was a vague hatred, she didn't think that these women took a large group of family guards, and the servants and girls went out to make incense, what was wrong, but if the women were not confined to the house, it would be easy to cause trouble, which was right.

This thing is really not so easy to say, those women are all suffocated in the back house, it is easy to catch fire in the backyard, it is easy to give birth to right and wrong, let them relax, they can go out from time to time, open their eyes, and it is also harmful, it is easy to make these women's hearts become wild, so everything must pay attention to a degree......

After talking about the conversation, the other women also came to ask for peace one after another, Zhiyun sent people away early, and then nested in the house alone to recuperate, the beginning and end of the matter, she asked Cui Mama, July, and October to find out last night, although the Li family issued a gag order, but this Prince Yong's mansion, after all, it is not her turn to call the shots, Zhiyun doesn't care, what she really wants to know, absolutely no one dares to expire her.

In the past few months, because Ouyang and Zhiyun are not there, Jingrou is depressed in the house, she often goes to Xiangyun Temple to worship the Buddha, she has always liked calligraphy and painting, not only she is good at, but also likes to collect famous masterpieces, that day, on the way to incense, Jingrou sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain of the car, secretly looked out, and saw a scholar sitting on the side of the street, holding a book in his hand, while reading, while selling calligraphy and paintings.

This peeked, but saw the accident, that day, Jingrou saw the scholar's new painting of 'Green Bamboo Forest' Danqing, and immediately couldn't take her eyes off, and she loved it very much, so she asked Xing'er to buy it back and show her.

Although Jingrou is only a daughter's family, in Prince Yong's mansion, Zhiyun did not give her the famous calligraphy and paintings of various dynasties and generations to play with, which can be said to be well-informed and has good eyesight, but the painting made by such a poor scholar is very much in the eyes of our aunt and grandmother.

Since then, every time Jingrou goes to the street, she has to ask someone to buy the scholar's painting, and later, Jingrou even asked Xing'er to bring her the words and paintings she wrote, and wanted to ask the scholar for guidance, and occasionally there were letters, the so-called letters, but only a few words, mostly talking about calligraphy and painting. The scholar also admired Jingrou's talent very much, and praised it in his words.

Just like this, although the two people have never really spoken, but across the crowd, through the thin veil on the window, a glimpse, and they are both young men and women, and they have not read the stories of those talented and beautiful people on weekdays, and they still have a longing for the word 'love' in their hearts, and it is inevitable that they will have a few different thoughts.

In fact, Jingrou also knew that this was not right at all, but this sneaking meeting with her sweetheart was an extremely exciting thing, the more she knew that this was wrong, the more she couldn't control herself, so under the pretext of 'Shangxiang', she left the house more and more often, and in the end, she even went out four or five times a month......

With a matter of heart, the day is not a thought, I can't sleep at night, and there is a charm between my eyebrows, so what a shrewd person Li is, how can I really not see it, when I see my daughter's behavior, I feel bad in my heart, this attention, quiet and gentle behavior can not hide from her, and I was found by my own mother The letterhead written by the scholar.

In an instant, like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, Li was shocked and angry, scolded Jingrou with her head and face, detained her in the house, and then did not allow her to go out, and also taught Xing'er who passed the letter privately for Gege, beating her so that she couldn't get out of bed for several days, Jingrou Gege also knew that it was inappropriate, although her heart was painful, but she also learned the rules since she was a child, what should not be done, what not to do, she understood in her heart, so she stayed in the room with her mind suppressed, and honestly copied "Women's Ring" and "Women's Rules".

Seeing that his daughter was honest, Li was still worried and scared, not only did he go to Concubine De Niangniang every day to fulfill his filial piety, but by the way, he asked Concubine De Niangniang to help her daughter find a husband, it is best not to marry Mongolia, at least she should marry a Mongolian vassal king who stayed in Beijing, so that her daughter does not have to go to Mongolia to suffer, and she can help her in the future.

Although Jingrou made a decision in her heart, after all, it was the first time, regardless of ancient or modern, the taste of this first love was just as wonderful, and the loss of love became more and more painful, she couldn't eat for a while, and she lost weight in a few days. But let Li kick him in the chest.

After scolding for most of the day, seeing that his daughter didn't eat oil and salt, and only sat on the bed in a daze, Li was anxious, looked at Xing'er who was kneeling on the ground, and said: "It's all you, a cheap, you don't know how to persuade Gege, and you dare to instigate Gege not to learn well...... Come on, pull this shameless out of me and kill me with a rod."

Since Ouyang came, there have been almost no slaves in this mansion who have been killed by canes, but after all, it is the palace, and the Li family is a side Fujin, she said a word, killing a slave with a cane, and no one will really run out to oppose it.

This frightened Jingrou She was only a teenager, Prince Yong's mansion has always been kind to the people, where has she seen this, crying and pleading for mercy, watching her personal maid being gagged, only a dozen boards, and then she died, Jingrou was so frightened that she fainted, and she had nightmares for a long time.

Seeing her daughter like this, the Li family was not distressed, but she was so ruthless that she just ignored it, and only went to Jingrou every day with her henchman, and told her that if the daughters of other Manchurian nobles did not follow the rules, what would happen to her, saying that if this matter was known to Changfu Jin Zhiyun, for the reputation of the palace, Jingrou could only die, and the royal family died a little, which was not a big deal, and the man in her heart could only be skinned and cramped by the prince to vent his hatred......

Therefore, it is best for her to be married at home obediently, and she will not harm her own daughter, and she must find a good forehead in all aspects.

Jingrou was already scared, and she was scared by Li's three days and two ends, and she was still unwilling to marry early......

Zhiyun sat on the kang, looking at her belly that had not yet shown her pregnancy, and smiled bitterly in her heart, it is not strange that Jingrou likes a man, after all, she is a young girl, and it is normal to be emotional, but in such an era, it is very problematic to be a child, after all, this is not an era when you can fall in love freely, not to mention the daughter of the palace, how can she be disordered, I just hope she can figure it out for herself, and pass this hurdle.

Thinking about it, Zhiyun reached out and took a plum blossom note, wrote a few words, and asked July to send it to Ouyang, planning to let Ouyang check it, what kind of person is that person who seduced Jingrou and didn't think about it, and what is his character and temperament? His encounter with Jingrou was an accident, or was that guy malicious and deliberately provoked.

In fact, the latter possibility is very small, Zhiyun and Ouyang still attach great importance to the girls in the palace, although they are allowed to go out, but they have not relaxed their safety at all, every time they are accompanied by secret guards, the surface is low-key, and the carriage they ride is also ordinary, under normal circumstances, no one will notice that it is the people of the palace who travel, but they are not afraid of 10,000, just in case, in case that man spies on something and deliberately provokes Jingrou, then don't blame Zhiyun for being ruthless.

However, if that person is really talented, can read well, can be named on the gold list, and get the top three, then even if he is a Han person, Jingrou is not without a glimmer of hope, the emperor married her, and it can be said that it is for the sake of 'Manchu and Han families', in order to win over Han people.

However, if you don't grow up, even if you have to use strong means to attract resentment in the end, you will have to give up the idea of being quiet.

Zhiyun pursed her lips, shook her head, and put these unpleasant things aside, if someone else encounters this kind of thing, you have to be tired of it, but Zhiyun encountered, although she was also upset, but in the end she was much more open-minded, and she never took it to heart, "July, you have nothing to do to accompany Ergege, she is very depressed in the house, you can also chat with her and tell her stories." ”

It's best to talk more about bread and love, which is more important, you must let Jingrou understand, the princess and the king can be happy together, the toad never wants to eat swan meat, life is in the world, love is not everything, life is the most important...... In short, get vaccinated first to avoid future troubles

A glance passed, and Zhiyun's intimate maid understood.
