The Red Chamber: The Rise of the Shuzi

Chapter 207
First of all, Jia Baoyu ran back from the outside first, but Mrs. Wang took him aside.

He hated iron and said: "Your sister came back from the palace, why didn't you wait outside to greet her, why did you run in first?"

Jia Baoyu's heart froze when he heard this.

He hesitated for a long time, but couldn't speak.

At this moment, on the Ningrong Street outside, the sound of ritual and music was loud.

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang could only sigh, "Forget it, go to Tanchun and the others first! But don't run around!"

When Jia Baoyu heard the words, as if he had received an amnesty, he hurried over without mentioning it.

In a short time, the concubine's husband had already entered the three gates of Rongguo Mansion.

First, there are pairs of phoenix and dragon banners, pheasant feather palace fans, and gold burners burning imperial incense all the time, then a golden umbrella with seven phoenixes on a crank, and then the crown gown and shoes.

Afterwards, a group of deacons and eunuchs were holding incense towels, embroidered handkerchiefs, washing bowls and dust whisks.

After these people passed by in groups, a golden-topped, goose-yellow and phoenix-embroidered Luanyu, carried by eight eunuchs behind, slowly entered the door.

Jia's mother hurriedly led a group of female relatives to greet her with big salutes.

On the side, there were eunuchs who had already come up and helped Jia Mu and others up one after another.

Luanyu came in from the main entrance of Rongguo Mansion seemingly slowly but quickly.

Then go all the way in, until it stops in front of a courtyard door, at this moment, a eunuch and maid of honor kneel down and ask the concubine Xian to come down and change her clothes.

After that, everyone came all the way to the five gates of Xingqin Bieyuan.

Get in the door.

I can only see the lights of various colors in the garden, all of which are tied with gauze and silk, which are very delicate. At present, there is a plaque on the head, with the four characters "Tiren Mude" written on it.

The crowd surrounded the concubine Xian and continued to walk inside, only then did they really enter the family-sacrificing garden.

If you look around, you can see that the garden is surrounded by cigarettes, colorful flowers and shadows, embellished with Zhu Cui everywhere, and the sound of music is loud from time to time. There are endless scenes of peace, endless wealth and romance...

Concubine Xian watched the past all the way, so she nodded and sighed: "The family built such a separate garden for the family, but it is too extravagant and wasteful!"

Just as they were talking, everyone invited the concubine Xian to board the boat, and then they saw a clear stream in front of them, like a dragon swimming.

So Concubine Xian stepped onto the boat.

On the stone railings on both sides of the road, there are various glass lanterns on display.Just seeing these lanterns of various colors, I can already imagine in my heart what kind of colorful scenery it would be if the lanterns of various colors were lit at night!
After a while, the boat had already entered Yishi Port, and when everyone went ashore, they saw a piece of graceful Lin Palace and majestic Gui Palace, and the four characters "Treasure of Heaven and Immortals" were written on the stone archway.

When Concubine Xian saw this, she couldn't help being startled, she said "too ostentatious", and then ordered people to change it into the words "family-sacrificing villa", and then entered the palace.

Afterwards, the etiquette eunuch invited the virtuous concubine to ascend to the seat to receive the ceremony, so the two eunuchs began to laugh, and the two eunuchs led all the men and women of the Jia family to come forward one by one to meet the ceremony.

After such a lot of tossing, it was not until half an hour later that everyone finished seeing the ceremony.

So the concubine Xian descended to her seat, and the music stopped.

So far, the concubine Xian has returned home to visit relatives, and all the etiquette has been completed!

The number of etiquette before is to distinguish between superiority and inferiority, which is related to the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers, so it is unavoidably strict.And the next time is the time that Concubine Xian can freely control.

At the moment, everyone was sitting in the palace, chatting about the daily routine there.

Compared with the intrigues in the palace, at this time, talking about the family members of the Jia family, the long-lost tranquility in his heart made him feel relaxed.

……

It was getting closer to noon.

It was also until this time that Jia Jing came back from training in the middle of the camp in advance.

And because she knew early on that Concubine Xian was going home to visit relatives today, so after Jia Jing returned to the mansion, she didn't talk nonsense. After changing her armor, she went straight to the relatives' garden in Rongguo Mansion!

After the cup of tea time, he had already arrived in the palace of Concubine Xian.

When Jia Jing arrived, it was just as the last episode of the opera was coming to an end, and everyone was preparing to go to the main hall to hold a banquet.

First bowed to Concubine Xian, Jia Jing respectfully said: "Chen Jia Jing, I have seen Concubine Xian!"

Up above, Concubine Xian saw that it was Jia Jing who came forward to greet her, she hurriedly excused herself with a smile on her face, and then asked the little eunuch beside her to move a stool for Jia Jing to sit on.

Seeing that Jia Jing's wet hair was still wet, Concubine Xian asked, "Third brother Jing just came back from the camp?"

Smiling and nodding, Jia Jing replied, "I just finished practicing Dianmao, luckily I didn't miss the hour!"

"What's the matter?" Concubine Xian also showed a bit of a smile on her face, "The military affairs should be the most important thing, so I don't have to worry about it here! Only the third younger brother Jing came from the army and was tired all the way. Rest for a while?"

But Concubine Xian was thinking about Jia Jing who had just returned from the camp, so she hurried over, worried that he was tired and tired, and could not rest, so she wanted to ask him to rest for a while.

Jia Jing first thanked Concubine Xian for her concern, and then said with a smile: "It's just a little practice, I'm used to eating and drinking water, why are you tired?

Besides, it's getting late now, but it's not good to miss the empress's lunch time! "

When Concubine Xian heard the words, she saw that Jia Jing did not look tired, so she stopped talking.

He just nodded and said, "Then let's go together!"

After all, everyone moved to the main hall in unison.

Concubine Xian first issued an order to ask everyone to return to their seats without courtesy, so everyone in the Jia family was able to sit down one after another.

At this moment in the main hall, the concubine Xian is at the top, and Jiamu and Daiyu are at the bottom. As for Youshi, Wang Xifeng and others, they are next.

On the male side on the other side, only Jia Jing, Jia Zhen, Jia Lian, and Jia Zheng, the biological father of the concubine Xian, were present, and the rest were not allowed to enter the main hall without a title.

And just after taking her seat, Concubine Xian immediately asked, "Why is Baoyu missing?"

Jia's mother replied from the side: "No job outsider, dare not trespass!"

Concubine Xian laughed and said, "Baoyu is my younger brother, but it's okay, just ask him to come in!"

After a while, a young eunuch led Baoyu in.

Baoyu first met the concubine Xian in the state ceremony under the hall.

During this period, Concubine Xian saw that Baoyu had grown up so much compared to when she entered the palace, she couldn't help showing a lot of smiles on her face.

He asked again: "How is your homework recently? Have you made any progress?"

When Jia Zheng heard the words, he immediately stepped forward and said, "I have made some progress in my homework recently. When I came here, all the pavilions and pavilions in the garden were inscribed by Baoyu."

When Concubine Xian heard that Baoyu was able to write questions, she said with a smile, "It's really beneficial!"

He ordered Baoyu to come closer, looked at him carefully for a while, stroked his head and neck, and said with a smile, "it's a lot longer than before..."

Without a word, tears fell like rain.

But it is said that this virtuous concubine Yuanchun was raised by Jia's mother since she was a child before she entered the palace.

After Baoyu was added, Yuanchun, because he was the eldest sister of his compatriots, also thought that Baoyu was the son of his mother, Mrs. Wang, when she was old.

Moreover, the two of them served by Jiamu's side together and never left. It can be said that Baoyu was brought up by Yuanchun alone.

Although the two are siblings, they are like mother and child.

Even after Yuanchun entered the palace, he would write to Jia Zheng and Jia Zhu from time to time, saying that they wanted to raise them well, saying: If you are not strict, you will not be able to become a child, but if you are too strict, you will be afraid of life, and it will worry your grandmother.

The heart of nostalgia can be said to never forget.

It's just that after the eldest son Jia Zhu died of illness, Mrs. Wang was left with such a single seedling, which was naturally well protected and doted on by Jia's mother, but it was crippled by the forced provisions!
Yuan Chun didn't know how worried he was in the palace.

At this time, seeing Jia Baoyu have made such a great improvement, and also seeing Jia Baoyu not seen for many years, how can he not cry?

And when Yuan Chun pulled Jia Baoyu closer, the expression on the face of the ceremonial eunuch couldn't help but changed. Later, Yuan Chun stroked Jia Baoyu's head and neck, and then cried again, his complexion was completely gloomy.

I just endured and endured, but I suppressed it, so I didn't speak.

Not far away, Jia Jing had a panoramic view of this scene.

……

At the same time, outside the Rongguo Mansion, an eunuch in a dark blue robe came to the gate of Jia's house arrogantly...
