The upgrade of Concubine Xian in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 482 The lingering visit

The news that Mrs. Li Xu brought Li Wan to pay a visit to Zarafen spread to the ears of officials and family members in the south of the Yangtze River, and they all became curious.

In Li Xu's mansion, the skinny horses are divided into grades, and Li Wan's grade is very high, which can be regarded as the one that stands out among the skinny horses carefully cultivated by Li Xu. The only thing is to let the pure prince Yinzhen come forward to do business in the south, as if he was careless, but in fact, he started to investigate the business affairs from the side.

In the main hall, Zarafin sat on the main seat, with a smile on his face, he didn't hear their words with his ears, and didn't keep them in his heart.

"Cian Fujin, Wan'er has always respected you, and I hope to visit you more often in my free time." Li Xu Fujin looked at Zarafin and said.

"I don't have the time. If you are free, you can leave first." Zarafin put down the teacup, looked at the mother and daughter and said.

Mrs. Li Xu heard Zarafin's words, and knew that the mother and daughter had to leave, otherwise, they would hit Zarafin's bottom line.

"Cian Fujin, the minister's wife has been out for a long time, let's take my leave first!" Mrs. Li Xu and Li Wan, who was carrying her, saluted and left.

Looking at the backs of the mother and daughter, Zarafin felt very strange, why did the two leave so easily?
Ordinarily, Li Xu must have repeatedly persuaded her to send Li Wan to his side.

"Let's go to see the Lord." Zarafin got up.

In the side hall, Hongli happened to hear Mrs. Li Xu's words, the mother and daughter obviously came prepared.

"Master, you heard me, Li Xu probably wanted to send someone here for you." Zarafin's face tensed up, "Before leaving Beijing, Fujin told me to take good care of Master, if Fujin finds out I have arrived at the south and actually brought back a skinny horse, my crime is really great."

The corners of Hongli's mouth twitched slightly, and he sighed, "Jiaojiao, Fujin told you? Are you jealous?"

Although Zarafin had been in the mansion for a short time, Hongli knew very well that she cared about him more than ordinary female relatives, and only cared about him, not what was behind him.

"Master" Zarafin acted like a baby.

"Don't worry, Li Xu's skinny horse won't come near me, how did you find out?" Hongli asked Zarafin.

"Master, Li Wan is obviously older than Li Xu's concubine daughter. According to Li Xu's temperament, if she is a daughter, why not send her to the palace to participate in the general election, but give it away secretly?" Zarafin turned her head and looked Zhu Hongli said.

If they participate in the general election, the other party obviously has a background. Entering the mansion of the elder brothers should be Gege's status. If the current practice is followed, it will be a concubine at most.

"Well, it's good to learn to use your brain." Yin praised with satisfaction.

Zarafin blushed, Hongli was very stingy in complimenting others, it was really rare to be able to praise her today.

"My lord, your praise made me blush." ​​Zarafin leaned on Hongli's side and said.

Hongli laughed loudly: "Tomorrow, Li Xu's wife will invite people from the Cao family to come to the other courtyard to persuade you."

Zarafin was a little confused, why did the disabled Cao family come in?It stands to reason that the Cao family should be wise and safe. Kangxi repeatedly urged the Cao family not to participate in the officialdom in the south.

In the early morning of the next day, Zarafin was sitting at the desk, flipping through the ledger, which showed the expenses of the other hospital for this month, and had to admit that after Hongli came to the south, the expenses really increased very quickly.

"Master, the second young lady of the Cao family and Mrs. Li are here." Huang Ah frowned slightly, the two ladies obviously had no human identities, and they still wanted to use their identities as first wives to suppress Zarafin.

"Huang, invite people to the main hall." Zarafin explained.

Hongli explained, what is his bottom line, at least, he can't let other female family members enter the mansion, besides that, he should avoid socializing with the officials and family members in the south.

Pure Prince Fujin appeared on the bright side to socialize with officials and family members in the south, while Zarafin hid behind the scenes to make up for possible loopholes that Pure Prince Fujin might have.

In the main hall, Mrs. Cao and Mrs. Li looked at each other. Zarafen was only a side Fujin, but he left them here for nearly half an hour.

For them, it was intolerable. In the south, no matter whose mansion they went to, the master was waiting for them.

Dressed in an apricot-colored summer uniform, Zarafin came over slowly, with a faint smile on his face, and he said sorry, but there was a trace of apology in his eyes.

"The two ladies are rare visitors. Is there anything important to discuss here today?" Zarafin asked bluntly.

Mrs. Cao's face was a bit ugly, and Zarafin obviously did not welcome their arrival, and even Fourth Master would not say it directly.

"Cian Fujin, you don't like us coming?" Mrs. Li asked suspiciously.

The royal family members are all there to entertain the officials, and Zarafin is a female family member who does not play cards according to common sense. Even Jiufujin greets them with a smile when he sees them.

"I only met once or twice, but I actually wanted to impress someone to come in," Zarafin looked embarrassed, "Before leaving Beijing, Fujin repeatedly explained that he hoped that when he was on business in the south, he would take good care of the master and not bring a younger sister back. Woolen cloth."

After the words fell, Mrs. Cao and Mrs. Li were surprised. Sifu Jin is a man who knows the rules. Even the Queen Mother and Lord Long Live praised him. How could it become like this in just one or two sentences?
"Zalafingerge, is what you said true?" Second Young Madam Cao looked at her, "It's definitely Sifujin's fault. It's definitely not enough for Master to have only one person to serve him."

Zarafin's face was a bit gloomy, and the officials and family members were able to criticize the prince's first wife, which was obviously a sign of breaking the rules.

"Second Young Madam Cao, what you said is a bit out of order." Madam Su said, "Master shuts down good words first, so don't dig a hole for him here."

When Mrs. Cao heard what Madam Su said and saw the old lady's appearance, she hurriedly got up to greet her, which was even more polite than greeting Zarafen.

"Madam Su, mother often mentions you in front of us." Mrs. Cao said.

"Mommy has been away for so long, yet she still remembers me." Nanny Su had a smile on her face, "At the beginning, in the palace, Nanny's rules were very good, you still have to learn it carefully , to prevent someone from taking advantage of it and directly attacking Mammy."

"Yes, Mammy criticized it!" Mrs. Cao regretted, why did she come with Mrs. Li, this person is definitely not easy to mess with, and followed Zarafin again, it was obviously arranged by the fourth master himself.

"Mrs. Li, I heard that you sent your concubine over yesterday?" Su Momo pointed her finger at Li Xu's mansion.

It can be seen from this that the royal family has been dissatisfied with Li Xu for a long time.
