Chapter 274 Peugeot Daughter

In the outer hall of the Queen Mother’s bedroom, under the side window.

After the Empress Dowager Zhihei lost a son, she asked Yuan Chun: "What do you think Jia Lian wants to do when he comes to see me?"

"Thanks to the Empress Dowager's respect, I am willing to give him Princess Zhaoyang married him, so he came to thank the Queen Mother for her kindness."

Yuan Chun replied without thinking.

The Queen Mother paused slightly as she put her slender fingers into the chess jar, and glanced at Yuan Chun. She didn't know whether Yuan Chun really didn't understand Jia Lian or was pretending to be stupid.

"So, you support him in marrying Zhaoyang?"

"It is his blessing and the Jia family's honor to be able to marry the princess."< br />
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "I feel the same way. I just hope that he can feel the same way."

Yuan Chun paused for a moment and looked up at the Queen Mother. , said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I, my cousin, have always been the most sensible person.

But after all, he is young, and sometimes he may be a little stubborn. I and the elders in the family I will advise him well, and I also beg the Queen Mother to be more lenient."

"Don't be nervous, he saved me once, even for this matter, I will treat him more. Tolerant.

However, I hope he is as you said, a person who can listen to advice, otherwise..."

Although the Queen Mother's words were not finished, Yuanchun was already feeling slightly. A chill.

I sighed in my heart, hoping that Brother Lian would not disobey the Queen Mother, otherwise, she would not be able to help him.

The small garden at the back.

Faced with Princess Zhaoyang’s increasingly direct and revealing words, Jia Lian cupped his hands and said, “Thank you very much for your kindness, your highness. With your heroic appearance, you have countless admirers in the capital. Your highness can choose at will. I will finally find the right man."

Princess Zhaoyang smiled and said: "I have already chosen you, but unfortunately, people seem to look down on me."

In this regard, Jia Lian said seriously: "Princess, you are serious. Although tens of millions of people cannot match the princess's heroic appearance.

I also admire her very much.

It's just... ...If today I break my promise and abandon my wife who is a loser because of His Highness’s style and status.

In the future, maybe I will do something unworthy of Your Highness because of other people or things. It’s something.

His Highness must look down upon someone who is so gullible and breaks promises, so I hope His Highness will understand.”

“You are right.Yes, but..." Princess Zhaoyang laughed, casually tucking a strand of hair that was blown in front of her eyes by the wind behind her ears. She placed her hands on the stone table, leaned forward, and looked directly at Jia Lian: "I Let me ask you, if there was no Wang family, would you still refuse the Queen Mother's marriage grant to you and me today? ”

All high-sounding words are just excuses.

Just like her, she doesn’t like to force others to do things, let alone take away their husbands, but because she is Jia Lian, she is the first person in her life to Once she found a man she liked and admired, she acquiesced to the Queen Mother's behavior.

It can be seen that Jia Lian was unwilling to violate his principles and abandon Wang, who was not outstanding, just because of her attraction to him. It’s just not enough.

But Jia Lian didn’t know what Princess Zhaoyang was thinking. He thought about it and shook his head.

Seriously, Wang Xifeng It is true that she is not the best internal manager in his heart. In the past two years, he has spent a lot of effort to suppress her.

But if she really doesn’t exist, or if she is divorced now, what I want most is The person to marry...

Lin Daiyu seems to be a bit young.

Xue Baochai, maybe.

In short, she will not be a princess, even if This princess is as charming and charming as Qin Keqing.

Thinking of this, Jia Lian suddenly felt that he was not a person who judged people by their appearance. What he valued more was a woman's soul?
< br />Facing Princess Zhaoyang’s solemn and expectant gaze, Jia Lian said softly: “No. ”

Since you are asking for something from someone, you must tell the answer the other person wants to hear.

Sure enough, Princess Zhaoyang laughed immediately. She sat back and smiled. To Jia Lian: "Thank you, General Jia, for telling me frankly. I understand what the general means, but the Queen Mother is not as easy to deceive as me.

Let me ask you again, if the Queen Mother insists on making things happen between you and me, how would you treat her? ”

Jia Lian frowned slightly, what can he do?

But he can only use reason and try to persuade.

Fortunately, he is right The Queen Mother is a little kind. Judging from the Queen Mother's attitude towards him before, the Queen Mother is not an overbearing person.

Fortunately, Princess Zhaoyang has superior conditions, so she does not necessarily need him to be her successor.

Therefore, this matter is not irreversible and will definitely anger the imperial power.

“The Queen Mother understands the righteousness and Her Royal Highness the Princess understands the common sense. I hope Her Royal Highness can help. , to help persuade the Queen Mother to withdraw her orders. ”

He also asked her for help, didn’t he know? He said this,Is it very sad?

Princess Zhaoyang glanced at Jia Lian one last time, turned around and walked out of the tea pavilion.

"Let's go, I will take you to see the Queen Mother."

　...

Because Princess Zhaoyang is personally leading the way, she will be here soon Go to the Queen Mother's bedroom.

It was almost the same place and the same situation as before, except that after Jia Lian got up after saying hello, he found a woman in palace clothes sitting inside.

You can’t see clearly through the bead curtain, but at a glance you can see that he is about twenty years old, with a dignified demeanor and an elegant temperament.

Based on some guesses from the memory of his predecessor, Jia Lian judged that this should be the famous Jia Yuanchun, the leader of the four springs of the Jia family.

She is indeed the third-ranked woman in the list of the Twelve Beauties of Jinling. Just from her body shape and outline, you can tell that she is an extremely outstanding beauty.

It’s a pity that the Queen Mother didn’t dare to take a closer look in front of her.

Inside, the Queen Mother looked unhappy and asked directly: "Jia Lian, why did you come to see me?"

"I came here because I wanted to I beg the Queen Mother to take pity on her and take back her life."

"Jia Lian, how brave are you!"

The Queen Mother was so angry that all the maids and eunuchs inside and outside the palace fell into silence, even Yuanchun did not dare. Sitting upright, he quickly stood up and gave Jia Lian a quick wink.

Jia Lian hesitated for a moment, but he knelt down to apologize.

…

Ningrong Street, Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Mu and others entered the palace happily to express their gratitude, but when they came back, they were not very happy. There was a kind of depression that could not be concealed between the smiles.

Especially, Sister-in-law Lian, who always liked to join in the fun, no longer came to Rongqing Hall to make fun of Jia Mu to please her. Instead, she hid in her own yard as soon as she returned home.

Li Wan, his sisters and others couldn’t help but feel doubtful.

After some inquiring, I found out the truth.

It was actually the palace that asked Brother Lian to divorce his sister-in-law Lian! !

As word spreads, everything is said.

There are only two kinds that Miharu and other sisters have heard about.

One way is that the princess in the palace fell in love with Jia Lian, so she asked the Queen Mother to come forward to marry him.

Wang Xifeng naturally became a stumbling block and could only be abandoned.

The other way is that Wang Xifeng did bad things outside, and the palace found out about it, and thought that her moral character was lacking and she could not become a royal concubine.Madam Ming, so she asked Jia Lian to divorce his wife!

As for marrying the princess, it was because Jia Lian had saved Jia Lian, so the Queen Mother gave an extra favor to marry him...

Nian, and having the power of housekeeping, offended many people, and there were countless people who hated her secretly.

Now that I heard that she was in trouble, it was natural that there were arrangements and everything. It was not surprising.

However, the sisters still have a good impression of Wang Xifeng, because although Wang Xifeng is cruel to the servants, she is still very considerate and tolerant towards her family.

When they heard that Wang Xifeng was treated in this way, they were all shocked and sympathized with her, and even couldn't help but shed tears.

Coming out of Rongqing Hall, Sister Sanchun and Daiyu made an appointment to visit Wang Xifeng.

Walking to this courtyard, it turns out that the once prosperous Fengjie Courtyard is now in a bleak state.

All the maids seemed to have been cast under a spell. The expressions on their faces were surprisingly consistent, and they were all taciturn.

When they saw them coming in, they all hid away.

Ping'er heard the noise and came out.

"Sister Ping'er, where is Sister-in-law Lian? Let's take a look at her."

Ping'er's face also had faint traces of tears. She shook her head and tried to calmly say : "Grandma said thank you for your kindness in coming. She accepted the kindness. However, she was not feeling well and was sad to see her. She also asked the girls to go back. She..."

Ping'er said, Thinking of my grandma's current situation, I still couldn't help but shed tears.

When Daiyu and others saw Ping'er being like this, they were all deeply affected, and they all wiped their tears with handkerchiefs.

Daiyu and the others, as well as their respective girls, are all women, so they can naturally sympathize with Wang Xifeng's situation.

So I really cried for her.

Seeing the girls and the maids shedding tears in groups, Ping'er was afraid that it would make the people in the room unable to control themselves, so he quickly wiped away his tears and said with a forced smile: "Everyone, please go back, our grandma will meet again some other time. Come to the door in person to say thank you..."

Tanchun and others saw Ping'er's thoughts and felt that it was useless for them to cry here, so they gradually stopped one by one and each left a word or two of comfort. , said goodbye and went out.

They had just left for a while when Li Wan, Baochai and Jia Baoyu came together again.

Wang Xifeng was also missing, and Li Wan and the others didn't bother them much. After coming out, they heard that the sisters were talking in Tanchun's room, so they walked over.

After walking a few steps, we arrived at the back of Mrs. Wang’s CourtyardIn the three-room back-to-back building, Daiyu and others were talking in Tanchun's room. Naturally, they were all talking about Wang Xifeng.

"Sister-in-law, Sister Bao, you came just in time. What do you think Sister-in-law Lian should do now?"

Li Wan has always been responsible for taking care of the elders of the family. Sisters-in-law are responsible for the lives of sisters and others.

Because Baochai is the elder, well-informed, calm and rational, she is deeply admired by Tanchun and others, so at this time, faced with such a problem that they could not reach a conclusion through discussion, they naturally I just wanted to ask them.

Li Wan and others sat down, took the tea handed over by the maids, and looked at each other. Finally, Li Wan sighed: "This matter is not something we can discuss, let alone decide. .

Everything has to be decided by the old ladies, we just have to wait.”

Baochai drank tea quietly without saying a word.

For a moment Xichun said cautiously: "If, if the second brother Lian really marries the princess, then the second sister-in-law Lian will not be able to live at home. What will she do?"

What else can I do? Naturally, I can only go back to the Wang family.

However, both Wang Xifeng’s parents are deceased, and his only brother Wang Ren’s family is also in the south. If he is really divorced, he will probably have to go back to his second uncle’s house.

Since ancient times, abandoned wives have not even wanted to see their biological parents, let alone uncles and aunts?

After thinking about it, everyone couldn’t help but feel even more sad for Wang Xifeng.

“I heard that Brother Lian is still in the palace, maybe there is a chance for this matter to turn around.

After all, Brother Lian and Sister-in-law Lian have a deep relationship, and he I definitely don’t want to leave Sister-in-law Lian behind."

Tan Chun said.

But everyone finds it difficult to agree with this.

It may be reasonable to say that Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng have a good relationship, but it is fantastic to think that there will be any improvement based on this.

That’s the princess, the emperor’s daughter!

What's more, this princess has the support of the Queen Mother behind her, and she can persuade the Queen Mother to help her make the decision.

Who can disobey the Queen Mother’s decree?

As women, they can sympathize with Wang Xifeng’s experience, and even do not want to see Wang Xifeng in trouble. But as members of the Jia family, or people related to the Jia family, they had to consider the interests of the family.

In fact, if Jia Lian can marry the princess and go home, it will be a great event for the Jia family, comparable to the promotion of a noble concubine in Yuanchun!

It goes without saying about the benefits of the family.

After all, you don’t need to think about how glorious it is to have the royal blood integrated into your own family.

If the princess gives birth to an heir again, it will at least allow the family to maintain the closest relationship with the royal family for several generations!

Because of such inconvenient reasons, the discussion in the room always falls into silence.

Because Tanchun suddenly saw Jia Baoyu, who was usually very active and liked to talk about important issues and express his own opinions, sitting in the corner blankly, he asked him: "Brother Bao, what are you thinking about?" ?"

Jia Baoyu came back to his senses, looked at Tanchun, and replied in a daze: "I just heard in the old lady's house that the princess is a very outstanding and beautiful woman... I am here I thought, such a woman is one of the most talented people in the world, why would she compete with the second sister-in-law Lian for the second brother Lian?"

This is Jia Baoyu's cover-up. In fact, he is a The person with the most broad thoughts and the most capable of lustful thoughts.

His status as a princess alone was enough. If coupled with the unique favor and extraordinary appearance, he would immediately fall into different thoughts.

People like Ge Yin are people who can be passed down in unofficial history, and those who can have grudges and entanglements with such people are destined to be no ordinary people.

But, why is it Brother Lian and not him?

Since childhood, he has always been the most favored person in his family because he was born with a jade in his mouth. He also feels that he is very extraordinary and cannot be compared with all the ordinary people in the world.

However, since Jia Lian's sudden rise, his self-confidence has been insufficient.

Because he discovered that the Duke's Mansion, which had always revolved around him, now revolved around Jia Lian most of the time.

Even now, even such a famous princess has a close relationship with Jia Lian?

This made Jia Baoyu feel a little inexplicably sad.

Could it be that I am really not the only darling in this world?

Jia Baoyu was a little stunned.

Looking at his stunned look and silly speech, Li Wan and others expressed no surprise.

Jia Baoyu was originally a person with unusual thinking. He couldn't hear the words "daughter" and "beautiful", especially when they were combined together. Once you hear it, you will definitely become crazy and say some silly, crazy things.

My mind is in a mess, I can’t write more, I’m crying (with the expression of Wang Xi’s pineapple flower with rain)
