Red Chamber Fellows: You Are Not Guilty

Chapter 109

Yes, Daiyu is now a member of the royal family.Even if everyone didn't have this concept, everyone has already known this truth from the queen to the queen mother's reward to leave the palace today.You must know that the queen mother has ignored affairs outside the palace for many years, and this is the first time that she has given a reward to an unmarried daughter-in-law.

Not to mention what the Jia family was thinking, well-informed people in Beijing already knew that the future Princess Pingjun's birthday was today.A long time ago, people who were old with Jia's family sent gifts, and some old families of Lin Ruhai's same year also sent people over.

Daiyu hid in her room early and did not come out. Mrs. Xing didn't call her, but said to the person who came to give the gift: "Although today is the child's birthday, she is still young and in the filial piety, so she shouldn't disturb everyone. Accepted by everyone." Only accept gifts and rewards, not to mention leaving people to sit at the table, and you don't even return the gifts-it was originally delivered to your door by yourself, but it's just a child's birthday, and the child is still observing filial piety, there is no reason to hold a banquet .

When Mrs. Xing managed to get rid of everyone, it was already lunch time.He also took Yingchun to the west hall to invite his family to the table—it is not easy for outsiders to hold a banquet, but he always invites his family to have a bite of this longevity noodles.

Before entering the house, just looking at the girls on the porch listening to greetings, the house is already full of birds and flowers, and the fragrance of flowers is everywhere.At this time, not only the girl from Jia's mansion and Li Wan came, but Shihou's mansion also sent Shi Xiangyun to pay homage to Daiyu's birthday.They thought very well. Shi Xiangyun and Daiyu grew up together and were raised by the old lady. They should have more affection than others.But the reality is that as long as Shi Xiangyun meets Daiyu, he will be sharp-tongued and relentless, and he has already offended people to the point of twelve points.Even this time she brought the two gifts specially prepared by Mrs. Shi Hou, and she was not angry in her heart. Why did the two aunts prepare such a heavy birthday gift for just a distant cousin, but when she was at home, who would think of giving herself alone? have a birthday.That's why he said it with a gun and a stick: "After all, Sister Lin is blessed. These people come to celebrate your birthday. Fortunately, you are still in the filial piety, or else people from the whole capital have come here."

This is not the case.When outsiders heard this, they only thought that Daiyu was flamboyant and unwilling to keep her filial piety at ease.But Xichun couldn't wait for Daiyu to speak, so she sneered and said, "This person is going to gain influence, who can stop him? It's not that Sister Lin sent a post to invite someone to come." Didn't you also come to the door in time to catch up.

Mrs. Xing heard this when she came into the room, she was amused, that Youshi didn't show her mouth, but she got used to her tongue like a knife's edge, and she didn't look at Shi Xiangyun's colorful face, she just smiled and asked Xichun: "How many days have you been?" At home, your sister-in-law gave you something delicious, and she raised her mouth so much."

Xichun is still young at this time, far from the time when she was cold-hearted in the original novel.Since Mrs. Xing and the others treated her monthly money as the same as Yingchun, even her elder brother and sister-in-law were scolded by uncles, and they became more concerned about themselves. They became close to the people in the big house, and heard Shi Xiangyun's words to Daiyu. Listen, don't just refute yourself.Seeing Mrs. Xing asking her, she said: "I don't know what my sister-in-law thinks. She only talked about steamed fish once, and I can't wait to serve the steamed fish right away. Good aunt, talk to her, and it will be like this again." .”

Youshi scolded her from the outside with a smile: "Who said he wanted to eat enough as soon as he went back? Now he's suing me again. Let's see what you can eat when you go back." While talking, the man also entered the room, facing Xing The lady said: "The meal has already been placed in the east hall, and someone has already invited the old lady. The old lady sent someone to say that she is happy today, and she must have a good drink. If the food is not good, the old lady will not follow her."

Mrs. Xing and others had listened respectfully, and Yingchun said: "Whether the meal is good or not today has nothing to do with my mother, but it was brought in from outside." Then she turned her eyes to Daiyu.At this point, everyone knew that it was probably the rice noodles sent by the Pingjun Palace.Coincidentally, my sister said to Jia Cong: "I don't know if today's meal is also sweet. It's just a snack. If the meal is too sweet, how can I eat it?" Mrs. Xing and Yingchun laughed together, and Daiyu couldn't hold it. laugh.Although the others didn't understand, they all laughed along.

It took a long time for everyone to sit down in the east hall. Naturally, Mother Jia took the first seat, and Mrs. Xing didn't follow the rules at this time, so she took the first seat on the left.Because Mrs. Wang said that she could not come because she had to take care of the garden and move, etc., she asked Aunt Xue to sit first on the right. Daiyu is the birthday star today, next to Mrs. Xing, and Youshi Li Wan sat next to Aunt Xue. And sit, enjoy not mentioning.

After the guests dispersed, Mrs. Xing fell on the soft couch to rest for a while, the little girl beat her legs, and Yingchun Daiyu was gossiping.Mrs. Xing said to the two of them: "You don't say go back to your room for a rest, what are you still doing here?"

Daiyu replied, "I dragged my second sister and refused to go back. I really can't bear to let my aunt suffer today."

Mrs. Xing nodded her head: "If you can't get through this, you just go back to rest and don't get tired, just thank me. But there are so many people here today, I didn't bother to ask you, those old homes of your father , I know the few shops I visited before, why are there more of these today.”

Daiyu's mouth moved, and she also said some reason: "Today's extra work is not limited to these, many people we have no relationship with have come here. Auntie can just walk around with the original ones."

Mrs. Xing nodded: "Isn't that the truth, you just know it in your heart. I'm afraid that you are cautious and soft, thinking that it's your father's past, so you will be coaxed away. You are the only one in the Lin family now, you have to make up your mind. good."

Daiyu nodded and said yes, and said a few words to Mrs. Xing, and then she was sent to have a rest with Yingchun.

When Jia Amnesty came back, he saw Mrs. Xing was already asleep, and asked the little girl to find out about the bustle in the mansion.He was going to take the opportunity not to go to court today, but he was called into the palace early in the morning by the emperor.Because he was the one who came up with the idea of ​​making it crazy if he wanted it to perish, the emperor didn't let him have a chance to get out of it.

I thought it was nothing serious, but my brain was troubled by Niu Jiye's arrangement.To say that after Jin Yiwei invited people to drink tea last time, Niu Jiye really stopped for a while, but after all, it is under the control of the Beijing camp, and he has a few military powers in his hands. Zhongping didn't know that he had been poached by Zhongan , How can it be easily let go.These days, the secret guard discovered that Zhongping had private talks with Niu Jiye more than once, and because the place where the conversation was held was open, it was impossible to know the content of the conversation.

Jia Amnesty didn't take it seriously at all, according to his thinking, he didn't need to pay attention to what Niu Jiye thought, he just took away his military power, and he didn't believe that he dared to rebel with the little soldiers in his hand.Unexpectedly, Zhang Qing who was next to him took out a ruler early in the morning and scolded: "Don't be afraid of [-], just in case. If he jumps over the wall in a hurry and really reverses, even if he can control it, don't forget that this is the capital."

Well, there are still many mouths.As a nervous [-]B youth, Jia Amnesty really didn't expect this level.He thought for a while and said to the emperor: "Zhongping is anxious to see Niu Jiye, is it for military power?"

The emperor thought that this is not nonsense?Not even a supercilious look.Jia Amnesty could only say to himself: "Does Zhong An know that Zhong Ping sees him?"

The emperor and Zhang Qing felt that this sentence was reliable, and they all waited for his next words.The uncle is here, and Jia Amnesty has no place to play tricks: "We know about Zhongan's poaching, but Zhongping doesn't. Now there are two ways to do this. One is to disclose to Zhongping the fact that Niu Jiye has voted for loyalty." Let him suspect that Niu Jiye can't be used by him, and give up the Beijing camp by himself. Or you have to tell Zhongan about Zhongping's secret interview with Niu Jiye, and let him think of his own way to get Niu Jiye out, so that you can replace the newcomer with your own, Zhongping’s chess game in the Beijing camp will also be useless.” Anyway, they are going to kill the dog themselves, and the emperor can watch the show on the sidelines.

After hearing his words, Zhang Qing knocked on the ruler and said to the emperor: "The person who speaks has to be considered."

Jia Amnesty was surprised: "I can't. They both hate me to death. Especially Zhongping, who even used his disgust to win. Can any of you guarantee that the next time you see me, you won't just give me a knife?"

The emperor was amused: "Perhaps he thinks that you are a talent that can be created, so he cherishes your talent and takes you under his command?"

"Impossible. He is not afraid that I will give him a knife if I falsely agree." Jia Amnesty could not let the emperor really have this idea.Zhang Qing also knew the seriousness: "I dare not say anything else, but when I first saw him, I wanted to give him a knife."

The emperor also knew what the two of them meant, and sighed quietly.Time always takes something away and never returns.Even Jia She, who has always been heartless, has a heart of fear, which makes him feel happy.Seeing that people are still looking at me pitifully, I can only reassure them: "I won't let you go. Even if I agree, father won't." You still have something that father valued. I don't know where it is.

Only then did Jia Amnesty become happy: "Then you two can discuss it, and I have to go home to celebrate my child's birthday."

The emperor was puzzled: "It's just a child, why should you be so concerned?"

Jia She hurriedly educated him: "It's only children who care about it. How many important events in a year can children remember? Naturally, his own birthday is the most anticipated. Who can give him any gifts? Who can give him a gift?" Remember his birthday, isn't this a big deal in the eyes of the child? Just say you, isn't it..." There's no need to mention the past, just say: "I'm going back."

The emperor didn't stop him anymore, he just recalled the winter of that year, that woman covered the sky with one hand in the palace at that time, his adoptive mother didn't have a high status in the palace, he was just a transparent prince, no one except his adoptive mother knew his identity Birthday.However, the crown prince sent someone to bring birthday noodles, and he personally brought himself to kowtow in front of his father, only then did his father remember that he was a prince and rewarded him for the first time in his life.Thinking of Jia Amnesty's statement about having to call the child by his name, he couldn't help saying to Zhang Qing: "This bastard really cares about the child."

Zhang Qingruo said thoughtfully: "I'm afraid I know how to cherish it only after losing it. I don't know."
