Xian Sun of the Ning Mansion of the Red Chamber

Chapter 256 Spring Hunting
"Disrespect in front of the palace?"

What kind of shitty reason is this.

Jia Ying didn't use the chess pieces in Fengzao Palace, afraid of being targeted by others, and it would implicate Yuan Chun if she got caught.

The Shangyi Bureau has the responsibilities of the guests, guests, and musicians. Whenever there is any big event in the palace, the maids of the Shangyi Bureau must participate, so it is convenient to inquire about the news.

It was a young eunuch from the Shangshi Bureau who spread the news, not someone arranged by Jia Ying, but a dirty and dark transaction in the palace. It's okay to come out.

Snakes have snake paths, rats have rat paths, and the people in Shangshi Bureau are responsible for shopping outside all the year round and dealing with guards, so naturally they have their own paths.

In terms of safety, as long as there are no major incidents, there will generally be no problems. Of course, Jia Ying has other protection measures for the information passed on. Even if others get it, what they see is just an ordinary letter from home.

It's not difficult to train a few court ladies who can read and understand the rhythm, but it's not easy to train a eunuch. Who would want to cut off their children and grandchildren if they can behave in an upright manner? The other party used the power of the court to follow the clues to find him.

Jia Ying has never seen the punishment methods used by the inner court to punish prisoners, but he has seen the things of Bingmasi. To put it bluntly, they are all light, and ordinary people can't bear them.

To be on the safe side, Jia Ying will never take this risk lightly.

The disrespect in front of the palace was obviously an unqualified excuse, and it was probably just for outsiders to see. I am afraid that Yuan Chun himself can explain the specific reasons.

But what can be confirmed at present is that it is the queen who made the move, and the side of the West Palace is just a pretext, but why the queen is targeting Yuanchun, this is probably not something that ordinary court ladies can inquire about.

After three days, Mrs. Wang, as an imperial order, asked for the order to enter the palace to visit, but there was no hindrance.

Jiamu didn't accompany her. After all, it wasn't the time for Jiaofang to enter the province. It's one thing to express one's position, but it can't be too much. After all, it's the home of heaven.

Yuan Chun was only grounded for three days, and there was no other treatment, but Yuan Chun didn't tell Mrs. Wang why he was punished, just to let the mansion feel at ease.

Yuan Chun doesn't say anything, Jia Ying can't do anything about it, there are people like him in Fengzao Palace, but it's not easy to bury a secret, and he won't activate it without a reason.

"Second master and wife, please relax. It shouldn't be a big deal. I think you can handle it with your intelligence."

He had never seen Yuan Chun's skills, but he was definitely better than her mother. It was not just a lucky person who could stand out from so many women.

Troubles come and go quickly, and we should live a life and continue to live.

The first month has come, can February be far behind?
As soon as February is over, Daiyu will be fourteen. If nothing happens in the coming year, the process of hiring and Najib will take more than half a year, and she will be out of the cabinet next year.

Second Master Jia is about to usher in his own home in this world. Thinking about it, I am still looking forward to it.

Even if the little girl is married, she still needs to be raised for a few more years, at most she can play with her in her hands, but Jia Ying still feels impatient.

Why do you feel guilty?
"I swear, I am definitely not greedy for Daiyu's beauty, let alone have the heart of a beast."

Jia Ying comforted her in her heart: "The main reason is that after the main room is settled, I can take care of my aunt."

Before the emperor made up his mind to recognize his relatives, he had to marry Qi Sixian through the door, and make rice for cooking. If he waited any longer, he would become an old girl.

At that time, even if the emperor is not happy in his heart, he can only be deflated secretly.

A good brother-in-law suddenly became a son-in-law. Can this kind of thing be announced to the public?Does the emperor lose face?
As for whether Jia Ying would be hated by the emperor, Jia Ying was not worried. At most, he would be given some shoes to wear. In a word, he had decided on his son-in-law.

Now that the county master is in his hands, Xu Wenyu, who is Zanshan, followed him into the mansion, so it's a matter of course.

Finally, I don't have to run to Yunji anymore.

There are still snowflakes in the sky, and the frost is cold, but it is a real spring day.

A few days after the Shangyuan, the emperor suddenly sent an order to the nobles in Beijing to hold a spring hunt in Nanyuan, a suburb of Beijing. All the nobles in Beijing were invited. This day is also the first day after the opening of the government offices of various ministries.

This is a festival exclusively for the emperor and nobles, and it is also the first hunt since Jiade ascended the throne.

The nobles in the entire capital began to boil, no matter whether they are still in the army or not, whether their children have inherited the martial arts of their ancestors, anyone who can be hooked with the word "Xungui" has begun to prepare, even to be able to Participating in this hunt, many disciples of honorable families started a secret contest, each showing their abilities, for the opportunity to show their faces in front of the emperor.

Even those families that have long since broken the lineage of titles are trying to get involved, just because of an illusory opportunity. Maybe they are lucky enough to use this opportunity to rejuvenate the family.

Because there are too many nobles, the Ministry of Rituals has to do its best to reduce the number of people. It is hesitant to participate in these families that have no title inheritance. However, although these families have no titles, the plaques to build the mansion are still there. what.

As a result, a strange scene occurred in the capital where the year has not yet passed.

Many old men who were about to be buried in the ground began to hold their own plaques and cry outside the yamen of the Ministry of Rites, shouting that the Ministry of Rites was unfair. outside meaning.

A good happy event, if the Ministry of Rites handles it improperly, it will soon turn into a funeral.

Even the stern and selfless Feng Hengshi felt a headache for this.

It is true that these families are in decline now, but the plaques they hold in their arms are real.

In the end, it can only be played to the emperor to make a decision.

Jiade felt sympathetic and allowed these families to send two people to participate in the hunt.

As for nobles like the Jia family, naturally they don't have such troubles, and they even have to pick and choose within the family to see who is suitable to participate.

Naturally, Baoyu is indispensable for such a grand day, this guy has a high-spirited mouth, and whenever there is a lively occasion, he will always get involved, and if he is not brought along, he will go to the old lady to cry.

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zhen all have titles, and they were going to guard the emperor that day, but with their physical fitness, I'm afraid they can't even draw a stone's bow and arrow. Letting them guard the emperor is just pretending .

Jia Zheng is the biological father of the imperial concubine, and he will also attend that day. Jia Lian and Jia Rong, as the heir to the title, must go to such an occasion.

As for Jia Ying, he is an honorable man himself, so he doesn't need to occupy the place of Jia's family.

There are quite a few children in the Jia family, and those who may participate are only a few people. Others, their identities are not enough.

On the contrary, Jiade decreed that each mansion can bring its family members to go together.

Probably the emperor would also bring his own concubine, and the orders of these big families were all to serve as a foil.

This day, I turned to the Grand View Garden, and before I entered the door, I could hear the laughter and noise from the Yihong Courtyard from a long distance away, it seemed that Sister Feng was also there.

That's right, if she wasn't there, the voice wouldn't be able to travel so far.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw that Baoyu had taken off the red arrow sleeves of the past, and was wearing a nondescript armor that he got from somewhere, with a purple gold crown inlaid with hair on his head, and a scarf on his forehead. The Erlong Xizhu Jinmo forehead is surrounded by all the sisters, commenting.

When everyone saw Jia Ying coming in, they didn't deliberately come to greet them, the brothers and sisters were all used to it.

"Yo, is Master Bao going to war?"

Jia Ying looked him up and down, and said, "If this is paired with a golden iron rod in his hand, and a few tufts of hair on his face, it will make the scene even better."

"Didn't you become a monkey grandson?" Sister Feng loved to joke and was always the first to answer.

"The devil king of the world, he has become the monkey of the world, and it fits well." Jia Ying nodded.

Baoyu said to Sister Tanchun and Daiyu angrily, "I just said, he always wants to laugh at me, and you still want me to wear it to compare with him."

Then he turned his head and said to Xiren beside him, "Quickly, help me take off this hard hat, don't wear it again."

"Stop teasing him." Daiyu advised Jia Ying, knowing Baoyu's temper well.

"Brother Ying is just joking, he is well dressed." Tanchun and the others comforted him.

"Huh, since he returned to the mansion, you all love to see my jokes. Don't you know that I am also familiar with the six arts of a gentleman. I can also do it by riding a horse and bending a bow." Baoyu was unwilling to lose face.

"This guy has a lot of resentment towards him." Jia Ying smiled inwardly.

But he doesn't care about these, this is still a child.

Between men and women, it's like things that complement each other. Baoyu's temperament is qualified to be a friend of women, but what else?
Jia Ying shook her head.

"Why do you compare yourself to him? You are a noble person in the mansion. Second Brother Ying grew up in southern Xinjiang. He rides a horse and shoots and hunts. On the contrary, everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Comparing them is meaningless." Baochai was as usual Big sister general governor.

"The armor is used to prevent being stabbed by the enemy. This is for hunting, not killing the enemy. You can't run with this horse, and you can't even catch a rabbit."

Jia Ying stopped teasing the other party, interjected, and said to everyone: "Have thought about it, do you want to go?"

Everyone nodded one after another. It is rare for such a grand event to happen once in many years.

"I heard from the wives of other families that there are quite a few people they want to go to their mansions, but they may not bring many with them. It must be an imperial order to bring a few female relatives and maidservants. Although there is no restriction in the palace, let's go home. Is it okay to go to so many people?" Sister Feng asked.

If you talk about catching up with the scene, Sister Feng is the favorite, but it's a pity that Lian Er doesn't live up to it, and can't even earn a life.

Jia Ying shook her head with a smile and said, "Our family is a family of three masters, how can it be compared with other families? Just go down-to-earth, this kind of excitement is very rare."

"That's true." Sister Feng nodded in response.

"I heard that there is a word from the palace that the younger generation will have to compete. His Majesty has another reward. Will Second Brother Ying participate in the hunt?"

Jia Ying shook her head and said, "Probably not. I have received a new job. I will escort Luanjia, and I cannot leave His Majesty's side."

Furthermore, what is his identity, there is no need to end it in person.

"This competition is not easy. This year, foreign vassals came to Beijing to pay tribute, and even the Xiongnu sent people here. I am afraid that this reward from His Majesty will not be light. Many outstanding children in Beijing will participate. On their own land, Naturally, we can’t let outsiders take the lead.”

Jia Ying knew something inside, shared it with everyone, then looked at Li Wan and said:

"At that time, let Lan'er and Jun'er go together. Although they are younger, it does not prevent them from gaining insights."

"Lan'er is still young."

Shooting and hunting on horseback doesn't have to be unusual. Although she hopes her son will become a dragon, she is also worried about accidents.

"If the young eagles want to become men, they have to go through a lot of beatings. They don't have to fight for anything. The most important thing is to participate. When the time comes, I will send personal guards to protect them."

Hearing this, Li Wan felt relieved, and a warm feeling rose in his heart, if they were only orphans and widows, who would worry about these things, Lan'er had to rely on herself.

Sister Feng and Daiyu looked at Li Wan almost at the same time, as if they felt that there was too much interaction between the two today.

Li Wan noticed the eyes of four people looking at him, and hurriedly lowered his head, but felt that there was no silver in this place, and suppressed the beating of his heart, he forced himself to lift up and throw it, so as not to show timidity.

"Woman, what a horrible creature."

Jia Ying couldn't help thinking silently.

Unavoidably being noticed, Jia Ying could only change the subject and focus on Sanchun.

"At that time, there will be a lot of talented children in Beijing, and it is rare to have this kind of opportunity on weekdays. If you like someone, remember to tell the second brother, the second brother will catch you and marry him." Jia Ying said half-jokingly.

The usual good sister has become someone's tool to divert attention.

Sure enough, everyone's attention was attracted.

"Second brother, how can you be so joking." Tan Chun said angrily.

Yingchunxiu covered her face with her handkerchief, she didn't talk much, and she didn't know how to respond at this moment.Xichun bowed her head, she was still young, she was already at the age to talk about marriage.

Although it was a joke, but they didn't know Jia Ying's worries, it would be better to make a decision early, so that one would not be used for trading, and the other would be paid off by Lao Tzu, and the remaining one would be empty-minded.

Jia Yingsui wanted to protect them, but for some things, he couldn't guarantee that they would be successful. When things came to an end, there was often no choice.

Fortunately, Xichun said that as long as the family stays together, they can always find a way.

On Yingchun's side, what he was worried about was how his elder brother would intervene in "the order of his parents".

As for Tanchun, Nan'an Prince's Mansion came second, mainly because of the meaning of the palace.

The only blame is that Mr. Cao's writing style is too old, so he can't be sure which foreign feudal clan it is, otherwise it will save trouble if he leads the troops to destroy it in advance.

"There's nothing wrong with it. Our daughter's family has more choices for us. Naturally, we can't miss this kind of good opportunity." Sister Feng urged from the side.

When Daiyu heard the words, she supported her in her heart, but she didn't know how to open her mouth. The sisters got along with each other all day, and of course they had a deep relationship. Although she and Jia Ying were also a matchmaker, at least they had met before, and they got along well. She loves it, but not everyone is as lucky as her.

"That's right, why can't we girls choose?" Xiang Yuntian was not afraid of anything.

"You can teach some good ones, but this will ruin one." Li Wan pointed at Sister Feng and said with a smile.

Baochai stood up at this moment and said, "I'm afraid that even if you want to choose, it may not be possible. There are differences between men and women. By then, we will probably be separated."

"There is always a chance." Jia Ying said.

Baochai glanced this way and thought, "I can really choose? I'm afraid I can't beat my parents."
