Xian Sun of the Ning Mansion of the Red Chamber

Chapter 270
"What do you think?"

For two or three days, the joy of having a second wife in the Dong Mansion gradually dissipated, and the girls often came here to look after them, and Daiyu was even more frequent.One day when Jia Ying went back to the house, she saw that Daiyu was not talking to anyone in the house, but was in a daze on the porch, so she stepped forward and asked.

"Why is it so early today? I heard from people in the mansion that His Majesty spared you from your errand. There have been a lot of gossip outside recently, but what is the matter?" Daiyu saw Jia Ying, stood up, and said , said with some worry in his expression.

"I said you're so worried, so it's because of this." Jia Ying smiled slightly, and while helping Daiyu to straighten her hair, she said, "Yes, my errand is indeed gone, but I asked for it myself. resigned."

"Is it because of impeachment?" Daiyu asked.

The female relatives in the mansion didn't worry about the outside affairs, but at some point, Daiyu couldn't help but began to care about the outside affairs. She knew that she couldn't help much, so it was inevitable that she didn't need someone who knew the cold and the hot. of.

It seems that there are many people and relatives in the mansion, but each room has its own thoughts, and it is hard to guarantee that they are all on the same mind.

Jia Ying was holding on alone, which made her feel bad.

Jia Ying shook her head and said: "After becoming an official, I often walk around outside, and it's rare for me to rest for a while. It's because I'm bored, and I just go home to accompany you."

There are indeed people in the court who are impeaching him. What he did in Jiangnan, if others want to make trouble, they can always find a reason.

For example, since he returned to Beijing, those Japanese pirates who ran into the deep sea have reappeared in the inland waters of Zhejiang and Fujian. It is always no problem to impeach you for being unfavorable in suppressing the Japanese.

For another example, when he was in charge of the military affairs of the sea, there were still private ships that bought a certain sea frontier guard and went to sea to sell profits without permission. I impeach you for the crime of secretly colluding with merchants and smuggling trade.

Of course he has done these things, but it is impossible for people to get the handle easily. What those people impeached is nothing more than their own despicable calculations. He has only been in Jiangnan for more than a year, and the guards in Zhejiang and Fujian It is possible to control all of them, and it is not difficult to plant them.

There are also officials who impeached him, used arrests and smuggling, forcibly seized goods, and then sold them privately to amass money.

Unfortunately, everything can be hooked on him, but he did all these things with discretion. Some of them were reserved for the navy's military salary, and most of them were shipped to Liaodong. He really crossed them out That part, others can't find out at all, because all the books are still in his hands.

Even if you get the ledger and want to find loopholes in it, the accountants outside, every three to five years, can't be studied clearly, and the accountants are all brought out by him from the ethnology, so others can't understand the ledger of.

Except for this part that could not be found out, he had endorsed with the court about the whereabouts of the rest of the property, but not many people knew about it.

In fact, these are all subsections. In the final analysis, it still depends on what the person in the palace thinks.

Therefore, he went to Shushu to resign.

There is nothing to be sorry about, even if he resigned from all official positions, he is still a high-ranking Uncle Jingning.

Such things as rights are ultimately given by others. If you rely too much on external things, there will always be a day when your backing will fall.There is nothing wrong with adapting in advance.

What is interesting is that Jia De agreed, and only left him with an errand as the admiral of the military department. Without the background of the Ministry of War, the military department simply cleaned the streets for the nobles in the capital.

In the eyes of others, isn't this a loss of power?

Jia Ying doesn't care what other people think, the key is what people think today.

Probably there is suspicion in my heart, but not all, otherwise, I would not leave one for him. Bing Ma Si said it was not important, but after all, he is a not weak military force at the foot of the emperor's imperial city, Jia Ying thought In fact, it is not easy to throw away.

The emperor left him such a job, which shows that the trust is still there.

It sounds contradictory, but actually it's nothing if you think about it. With so much power in his hands, it's normal for the emperor to be jealous, but he hasn't done anything disloyal, so the emperor is still willing to hand over part of the defense of the capital to him.

Just like flying a kite, if you go too high or too far, you have to tighten your hands tightly.

The means of the above are just mediocre.

Jia Ying could see it clearly, so she simply removed them together, and it just happened to be clean, and the recent situation in the court is not as peaceful as it seems on the surface.

"You don't have to worry about me. Ups and downs, like my aunt, I have experienced a lot. Isn't this a common thing?"

Daiyu laughed and said, "How do you know that these things are on my mind?"

"That's not it?"

"Why is that?" Jia Ying raised her eyebrows.

"It's sister Baochun."

"What happened to Baochun?" Jia Ying asked puzzled.

Daiyu's bright eyes flickered, she looked at Jia Ying and said, "You really don't understand what I mean?"

"What does my sister want to say?" Jia Ying had some guesses in her heart, but she still chose to pretend to be confused.

"Sister Baochun's status, shouldn't it be changed?"

"Eh, my sister didn't tell me, I almost forgot about it. Now that Baochun is pregnant, I really can't be a maid anymore." Jia Ying looked stunned.

The spring and green velvet were brought by Jia Ying from southern Xinjiang. Strictly speaking, they are not counted as maids in the mansion. Of course, there is no such thing as elders deciding to bestow titles. Everything depends on Jia Ying's intentions.

In the past few days, all the girls have treated Baochun as their concubine, and when they used servants, they were rewarded according to the master's order. However, Jia Ying never mentioned that Baochun should be considered as concubine. , which means that the name is not right and the words are not right.

Even Baochun himself has been in a trance recently, and Lvrong walked away pouted when he saw Jia Ying, two of the three sentences were yin and yang.

It's not that you can do whatever you want as a concubine, and Jia Ying has never acted like a master in front of the two of them, but being famous and not having a famous name are two different things after all. It is an external presentation of the status of the two women in Jia Ying's heart.

"You really forgot?" Daiyu didn't believe it.

After staring at Jia Ying for a long time, Jia Ying was finally defeated.

"I have plans for Primrose Lvrong, I just thought, wait for a while."

"What are you waiting for?" Daiyu asked.

"When we get married in the coming year, we will officially put them into the house together. Left and right are just a status, and there is not much difference from my feelings for them. Even if I don't have the status of aunt now, I have never put them in the present. People have seen it."

"They were left behind by my mother. Although they have no blood relatives, they grew up dependent on each other. Compared with blood relationship, it is even worse."

This is Jia Ying's true thoughts, he is not yet married, even if Aunt Na is nothing more than an elder who has returned to the mansion, and ordered a few words to let the people in the mansion know that he has admitted their identities, The personal servant girl was promoted to a house, and she couldn't even wear the red wedding dress once.

Of course, in addition to the main wife, there is also a wife, and it is impossible to make a big deal of it.But taking advantage of the lively days after the big wedding, letting the two go back to the house once can be regarded as going through the process of getting married. Although it seems a bit formalistic, but life still needs a sense of ceremony.

The other thing is to give Daiyu an explanation. Although Jia Ying doesn't want to admit it, there is a difference between people. The Lin family has had hairpin tassels for generations.

This side has not yet passed the door, and your side has adopted a new aunt. Jia Ying is not sure whether the Lin family and Jia Mu's side will think too much.

But since he was born in such a world, he had to follow the rules, and he couldn't break the rules just because he spoiled anyone. He could ignore these, but it didn't have to be the case with Primrose and Lvrong.

The two of them don't have the support of their natal families, and they will have to deal with the two governments in the future.

Maybe he was overwhelmed, but he had to think about it.

Of course, if Daiyu didn't object, that would be another way of doing things, but he couldn't open his mouth about this matter, after all, no woman would easily want to share the other half with others.He also couldn't guarantee that Daiyu wouldn't think too much.

But Daiyu said: "Are you afraid that I will be unhappy?"

Jia Ying shook her head and said, "You two get along all day, how can the affairs of the two of them escape your eyes."

"Besides, in my heart, you have never been the kind of jealous person."

"The fate bestowed by God has allowed me to meet you in this life. No matter what, I will always give you an explanation. If I fail this today, I will not guarantee that I will fail that tomorrow. If I really become such a person, you will like it Such a person?"

"A man should always be a man." Daiyu said softly.

"Thank you, sister, for your understanding." Jia Ying was secretly delighted, not ignoring his painstaking nonsense.

But Daiyu said again: "But this is not an excuse for your fickleness."

"Cough cough."

With such a sudden change, Jia Ying almost lost her temper, feeling ashamed in her heart, showing embarrassment on her face, after much deliberation, she didn't know how to justify herself.

"But I don't mind being sisters with Sister Baochun and the others." Daiyu continued.

Can we stop playing like this?To put it bluntly, it can scare people half to death. Why didn't you find out that this girl is so skillful in manipulating people? Is it a family tradition?

But it's not like a gentleman with such a cunning style as my aunt.

Could it be brought from the mother's womb?

Well, let me think about it, it seems that the two aunts of the Lin family were promoted after the death of Aunt Jia Min.

Jia Ying felt that she seemed to have grasped some secrets of his future father-in-law, and she didn't know how the aunt came here in those years.

Seeing Jia Ying's appearance, Daiyu couldn't help but sneered, before giving up, she said, "Sister Baochun is pregnant, but the wedding date hasn't been set yet. When a girl is pregnant, her heart is most fragile and sensitive." , if you don’t give her a name, how can she feel at ease, if she gets pregnant because of this, then it is a crime, how can she procrastinate any longer. "

These days, she also listened to a lot of gossip, mostly talking about how she was jealous or something, Daiyu listened to it, although she didn't care, but she was always uncomfortable in her heart.

She also knew that Jia Ying probably took care of her state of mind, and Daiyu was unwilling to share her future husband with others, but she also knew that this was impossible, not to mention that Priming Lvrong was no better than others. Yes, I grew up with her since I was a child, and I have a good relationship with her, but the grudge in my heart is not deep.

Now that the matter has come to this point, she must learn to accept it and behave like a mistress, so as to avoid family discord in the future.

Jia Ying glanced at Daiyu, and said kindly: "Your sister is right, but I didn't think carefully about this matter, so I will take Baochun to pay homage to the old lady tomorrow."

Aunt Na, you don't need to make a big fuss, you just need to take her to pay homage to the elders and hold tea, and it's done.

"Second Master, the prince of Lixiao County is here." Xi'er walked in and said.

Yang Bi?

Jia Ying frowned slightly, turned to Daiyu and said, "Sister, let's talk in the room, I'll go and have a look."

Daiyu nodded obediently.

Although Yang You had already left Beijing, Yang Bi still used various methods to call on him. Jia Ying had tried to shirk him no less than three times, but the other party still found a way.

Concubine Yi suddenly announced Qi Sixian to enter the palace yesterday.

Last time in Nanyuan, Concubine Yi summoned Qi Sixian. Although Concubine Yi didn't say why, Jia Ying could guess that it should be the emperor's order, but yesterday's summoning came suddenly.

Qi Sixian mentioned this matter to him yesterday. She met Yang Bi in the Concubine Yi Palace, and he asked her about Jia Ying. So fast.

"Chen Jiaying, pay my respects to the prince."

Before Jia Ying bowed down, Yang Bi had already stepped forward to help him up.

"Uncle Jingning, you don't need to be polite. You and I are not much different in age. You don't need to be so polite, just talk about them as your peers." Yang Bi said with a smile.

Jia Ying has already resigned from his official position, and he is only serving as the admiral of Jingning Bo, hence the name.

"I've wanted to ask Uncle Jingning to talk about it several times, but it's not a good day. I'm going to take the liberty of visiting today, and I hope I won't be offended."

"My lords, it's the glory of the scorpion. It's the brilliance of the minister's family. It's such a great honor. Don't you think it's strange. My lord, please come in and sit down." Jia Ying greeted Yang Bi.

After the servant girl served tea and left, the two began to exchange pleasantries again.

"Yesterday I met Sister Yiyang in the palace of my concubine, and when I mentioned Uncle Jingning, my concubine was deeply moved when she learned that Uncle Jingning had saved her life that day, so she just ordered me to come and pay my respects. "

"By the way, this is the hazelnut cake made by my mother and concubine herself, and ordered me to bring it to Uncle Jingning to taste."

Yang Bi was familiar with himself, so he ordered his followers to carry the food box and put it on the table.

Jia Ying faced the direction of the palace, cupped his hands and saluted, "Thank you, Ma'am, for your concern."

"I don't know which princess the lord is talking about, I'm a little confused." Jia Ying pretended to be stupid and said in a daze.

He naturally knew that Yiyang was Qi Sixian's title, but the emperor hadn't recognized his relatives yet, so how could the other party dare to regard him as his younger sister openly and aboveboard.

You know, even though the emperor recognized his adoptive daughter, the court, inside and outside the court, has always avoided mentioning it.

"It's the Yiyang County Lord. Uncle Jingning doesn't know that when the mother and concubine were in the imperial father's residence, they had an old relationship with the Qi family. When Yiyang sister was young, the mother and concubine hugged her. Seeing you now is even more cordial. I recognized her as a righteous daughter, and reported this matter to my father, who also agreed."

　After a festival, today's condition is not good, adjust.
