Chapter 250 Princess Rongguo
At the Prince of Nan'an's Palace, the Nan'an Concubine couldn't fall asleep after watching the lively scene.
Shen's meeting with Jia Wen was different from what she had imagined.
The emperor's attitude towards the Jia family because of her cannot be used as a basis for their family's choice.
What should I do? Should I let my son endure the hardship in the south and be beaten to dust by Wang Ziteng? Or should I just quit now?
Concubine Nan'an was undecided for a moment.
But one thing is certain, in the battle between Dazhao and Rakshasa Kingdom, they can only win, not lose.
At this moment, the emperor may need their family's military power.
Although handing over the military power at this time is not a timely help, it can barely be considered as timely relief.
Concubine Nan'an put on a thick cloak, walked out of the bedroom and turned towards the ancestral hall.
Shen is a very capable person who can help the Jia family break the impasse. She...
The Concubine Nan'an burned incense for her husband.
If she doesn't retreat now, when the emperor has time to deal with the Nan'an Palace, he will probably add to her charges just because her surname is Zhen!
What will happen to the children then? She sat silently in the dark until dawn, then she slowly stood up and said to the tablets: "Xiao'er is neither good at literature nor martial arts, and he is strong in the south. The reputation of our Nan'an Palace will be ruined by him."
Concubine Nan'an sighed, "That's it. I'll ask him to... write a memorial and come back."
Maybe it's not bad to be a stay-at-home like Jia Zhen.
When she turned to walk out, the nanny who was accompanying her covered her mouth in surprise and said, "Toffee, your hair..."
It turned out that in just one night, Concubine Nan'an's hair turned a lot whiter.
"Don't worry about your hair for now, prepare your pens and ink!"
The royal family should monitor the letters sent out from the Nan'an Palace. She used to be very cautious, but now, she hopes that the emperor is not so busy and can take a look.
But in fact, the emperor was very busy.
The first thing to do in the morning court was to present the Book of Eight Kings to Wohe, which was presented by the head of the Huihe Hall.
The princes who were the leaders of the Eight Banners and who had once founded their own country and were able to participate in politics all expressed their loyalty and regarded Emperor Da Zhao as the ruler of the world.
Not only that, Wohe also submitted a personal letter expressing his loyalty.
The sincerity of the words is beyond words.
It also lists the various benefits that his being king brought to Dazhao.
When the emperor saw that Wohe actually asked him to help bring the Jia family and Jia Wen together, he was so angry that he almost laughed.
Did he not know why this man suddenly became honest? The man in black was under the surveillance of the secret guards last night.
The Jia family wanted to kill him, and he was afraid!
Humph~ They are indeed a group of people who fear power but not morality.
There was harmony in the court, with everyone talking about the Book of the Eight Kings and praising the emperor.
You know, from Taizu to Taishanghuang, how many wars did they fight with those people? Every time they united with the Tatar tribes to resolve the conflict.
Unexpectedly, a beating from Mrs. Shen of Ningguo Mansion made them behave themselves immediately.
The censor, who had originally wanted to impeach the emperor, quietly put away the impeachment letter when the situation became so favorable.
These days, although Woher has been running around posting messages everywhere, his attitude of asking for help is almost nonexistent.
Anyone who has met him can only be described as unruly.
Now honestly...
A group of old foxes all know how to deal with them.
So, after taking the medicine and eating breakfast, Jia Wen met the little niece who was clinging to her eldest sister-in-law. Just as Jia Wen said that she wanted to go back to the West Mansion to pay respect to her stepmother, a maid ran in hurriedly, "Madam, someone is coming from the palace, and they want to see the second aunt's wife."
What? Jia Wen's face changed suddenly.
"Who is coming?"
Shen Ning asked while patting her noisy daughter soothingly.
This little girl, she was crying so sadly yesterday, as if she had done something unforgivable.
She was so distressed by the crying.
Last night, the little girl slept with her, even if her hand was inconvenient and she told her it hurt and asked for a snooze, she would still sleep next to her uninjured left hand.
Today, she is even more afraid that others will rush to hug her and resists any outsiders.
"Madame Wu, who is beside the Queen."
"Nothing, old friend."
Shen Ning breathed a sigh of relief. "Let's go. I'll go with you to see her. The Queen is a very kind person. This nanny is her personal friend. We've met many times."
Nanny Wu still had that smile on her face. After paying her respects, she first quickly looked at Jia Wen, and then immediately looked at Shen Ning's hand. "The Queen heard that Madam's hand was injured, so she specially asked me to bring a few boxes of white jade cream and some blood swallows."
"Thank you for your concern, Madam. I am sorry to bother you, Madam."
"Actually, this time I came..."
Nanny Wu glanced at the little girl who was looking at her curiously and said with a smile, "The Queen also asked me to bring Miss Yue'er a few small toys made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
Madam Shen had just left the capital when the Empress asked her to come here twice, "Xiao Yue'er, do you still remember Madam?"
“Ahh~~”
Jia Yue seemed to know him. Under normal circumstances, she would be willing to extend her hand and let others hug her.
But not now!
Her mother suddenly passed away.
I couldn't find it anywhere.
Now that they have met, no one can separate her from her mother.
"I've been away from home for a few days, and my child missed me."
Shen Ning smiled a little embarrassedly, "Thank you, Queen, for your concern."
After being away from home for a few days, the queen had things delivered to her home twice.
From Youshi, Qin Keqing to Yue'er, all were taken care of.
Although Shen Ning knew that the gifts the Queen sent home were mainly for Qin Keqing, she never left out Youshi and Yue'er.
"It's because the Queen and you get along well!"
The relationship has become closer, which can be said to be the key.
Nanny Wu felt that Jia Wen had become much more natural at this moment, so she said, "The Emperor and the Empress were very concerned about what happened yesterday. That Wo He asked someone from Huitong Hall to deliver the Eight Princes' Letter this morning, and also wrote a letter expressing his loyalty, asking the Emperor to help him talk to the Jia family and the Second Aunt's wife."
What? Jia Wen and Shen Ning's expressions changed at the same time.
"The queen wants to meet the second aunt," Nanny Wu said without changing her expression, "It's also a stroke of luck. Concubine Chen in the palace has no daughter and was present at the time. She said she wanted to adopt a daughter."
Hmm? Shen Ning understood a little.
"Don't be afraid, Madam Second Aunt. Concubine Chen has actually seen you."
Nanny Wu said, "You were still very young back then, probably as old as Miss Yue. The Emperor brought Concubine Chen to Rongguo Mansion incognito and said that he liked you very much when he saw you."
The emperor emeritus has always left state affairs to the prince and wandered around everywhere!
At that time, Concubine Chen was in great favor.
"Being the daughter of Concubine Chen means being the princess of Dazhao."
Even if she is not given the title of princess, a county lady is definitely indispensable.
"If you have any problems in the future, not only will the Jia family, but also the Emperor and the Empress will support you."
Nanny Wu bowed and congratulated him, "Second Aunt, please follow me to the palace first and meet Concubine Chen. I will come to the Jia family with an imperial decree later."
"...Thank you, Mammy!"
Jia Wen's heartbeat was a little faster.
What she feared most was implicated the Jia family, but if the royal family intervened in this matter, it would be completely different.
"Sister-in-law~"
Jia Wen looked at Shen Ning, tears welling up in her eyes.
“…This is a happy occasion!”
Shen Ning was also quite emotional, "Go ahead, anyway, the door of Ningguo Mansion is always open for you."
It is indeed better to have the royal family take over.
She watched Jia Wen being taken away, and felt helpless about her daughter hanging on her body. "If you continue like this, we'll just lie on the bed! My arms can't take it anymore!"
“Ah~”
The little girl stretched out her chubby little hands and hugged her neck. I don't know whether she bit or kissed her, but she drooled a lot for her.
Finally, Shen Ning had no choice but to have someone make a strap for her to hold more easily. She hung it around her neck and then held her daughter's little butt, thus freeing her arm.
Of course, while doing these things, someone was also sent to send a message to the Western Palace.
Jia Wen is not the daughter of Ningguo Mansion.
Don't let her end up getting angry and snatching the person away from her.
But it would have been fine if she hadn’t heard the news. Once she heard it..., Grandmother Jia felt terrible.
If Jia Wen was given the title of princess or princess consort, would she still recognize her as her legal mother?
She came over twice, but not only did she not see her, she also refused to let her in.
"old lady!"
Lin Zhixiao hurried in, looking a little unhappy, "Beile Wohe sent a gift to Huitong Hall."
Grandmother Jia: “…”
Everyone: “…”
"What did you give me?"
Wang Xifeng, who was serving here with her mother-in-law Xing, asked.
"There was music and dancing outside, and thirty-six loads of gifts were sent."
There's music and dancing, and thirty-six people are performing?
Jia Min frowned, suspecting that this guy wanted it as a betrothal gift.
But the betrothal gift was sent too late.
"Hit him out! Ignore him!"
My sister-in-law just said yesterday that it was a good thing that Wohe died.
Jia Min also thought about it for half the night yesterday and felt that it would be better if this man died.
"Min Er~"
The old lady disagreed, "Your second sister and your sister-in-law from the East Mansion..."
"Mother!"
Jia Min said: "Second sister will listen to the eldest sister-in-law of the East Mansion, and the eldest sister-in-law of the East Mansion will never accept anything from Wohe at this time."
This? "Okay!"
Grandmother Jia sighed.
"Then I'll let Lin Zhixiao bring a few more people."
Wang Xifeng looked at everyone and said with a smile, "Kick them out of Ningrong Street."
She also learned something from her aunt's operation yesterday.
In the evening, Jia Lian sighed to her again, regretting his stupidity.
When the second aunt came back, they thought that she had brought disaster to the reputation of the Jia family's daughter and the Jia family. If something bad happened in the future, even the entire family would be implicated by her and their property would be confiscated and the family would be exterminated, and they would be despised by others.
They tried hard to protect themselves.
They are on the defensive.
But when my aunt comes back...
One night, the couple banged their heads for a long time.
Now that Woher is here to disgust them again, of course they will be beaten out of Ningrong Street.
"Well, let's do it this way. Let Lin Zhixiao bring more people."
Jia Min's eyes flashed with admiration, "Go!"
After a while, the teams that were sending gifts with music and drums on Ningrong Street all left, and Woher became famous again.
However, he was not discouraged.
In their opinion, women who have the support of their families are different.
Therefore, they attached great importance to intermarriage with various Tatar tribes.
Now that Jia Wen has someone to back him up, shouldn’t he put an end to his prestige? If one time doesn’t work, then two times. If two times don’t work, then three times.
With three children around, Woher was not afraid that she would really fly out of his palm.
His main problem now is to correct his attitude, please the Jia family, and be loyal to Da Zhao. When he gets what he deserves...
Once you have taken control of the backyard, everything will be easy.
"Lord Baylor!"
The secret guard sneaked in, "The concubine has been brought to the palace. The emperor of Dazhao may want to raise her status!"
What? Woher was surprised and delighted.
What surprised him was that he had not yet reconciled with Jia Wen, but what made him happy was that her status had been raised, and that meant that his status in the clan would also surely rise.
"Go and find out what's going on."
The letter I wrote yesterday should have been delivered to the clan via the Saker Falcon by now.
"Also, if there is any letter from the tribe, send it here immediately."
The news of him being beaten yesterday must have been spread back to the clan.
I think it won’t be long before they realize that the Jia family and Dazhao are not easy to deal with.
Woher didn't think so. They would laugh at him for being useless.
Anyone in his position yesterday would have been beaten.
"yes!"
The secret guard left quickly to inquire about the news in the palace.
But in fact, there is no need for them to ask.
Dai Quan personally went to Rongguo Mansion to issue an edict, and the emperor adopted Jia Wen as his adopted daughter and conferred the title of Princess Rongguo on her.
The emperor has long been confused and doesn't even recognize people, so how could he make someone a princess?
Needless to say, everyone knows that this is the emperor's intention.
Seeing the endless stream of rewards, Grandmother Jia was not very happy, because the retired emperor mainly praised the Jia family and Shen in the imperial edict, and he was just short of praising her as the eldest sister-in-law like a mother.
Even though he didn't praise her in the end, who couldn't hear the meaning of the tone?
Although half of the reward was left in Rongguo Mansion, Grandmother Jia was very upset.
But what can I do?
She really didn't support Jia Wen.
The old lady waved her hand, asked someone to move the things to the warehouse quickly, and then went back to the house and lay down.
"Mother!"
Jia Min could only come over to comfort him, "Why are you upset? Weren't you worried that your second sister would bring trouble to the family? Now it's good, we don't have to worry about her bringing trouble to the family anymore, how good is that?"
For many things, it really depends on how you look at them.
Jia Min originally thought that she was a very qualified mistress of the house, but when her elder sister-in-law bravely attacked Huitong Hall yesterday, she realized that she still had a long way to go.
However, there are really few people in Beijing who can compare with her sister-in-law.
"Didn't you tell me last night when you were sleeping that before your father passed away, he was still thinking about your second sister?"
Jia Min was very emotional, "Father would be happy if he knew that my second sister could live well."
Grandmother Jia: “…”
"Mother, let's think about the bright side of things."
Jia Min consoled her mother, "My second sister came back but was not allowed to enter the house. After she was crowned a princess, she was able to have Eunuch Dai come to the house to announce the decree, which means she still misses us. Otherwise, if she went directly to the East Palace, wouldn't that be even more embarrassing?"
"...Where are you from?"
"I'm everywhere!"
Jia Min smiled and said, "I am your daughter, and also the younger sister of your second sister. Likewise, I am also the youngest sister-in-law of the eldest sister-in-law of the East Mansion."
"Go! Go! Go!"
Grandmother Jia was helpless with her daughter, "Since she is someone else's youngest sister-in-law, why don't you go and congratulate her?"
It is not convenient for her to go to the East Palace, but her daughter can go.
Shen played an indispensable role in Jia Wen's title of princess.
Grandmother Jia was emotional, but she also wanted her biological daughter to have a better relationship with her family.
