The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Chapter 269 Dimension Reduction and Suppression
The queen mother ordered someone to open the bead curtain, and looked at the woman standing alone in the hall.

Then even the queen mother had to admit that in terms of color alone, this woman is really outstanding.

"My wife Jia Wang, I pay my respects to the Queen Mother."

The voice was faint, a little fearful, and a little apprehensive.

She folded her hands on the ground and knocked on her forehead, unable to get up.

The queen mother nodded, this was the normal reaction of the courtiers when they saw her, unlike Jia Lian, who dared to peek at her through the gap at the end of the bead curtain!
"Flat body."

"Thank you, Empress."

Wang Xifeng was also taught the basic etiquette of visiting the palace.

It's just that after she stood up, she still didn't know what to do.

This is the first time she has met a noble person alone. In the queen's palace, there were old ladies staring in front of them, so she can be a little transparent with peace of mind.

"Come here."

The Queen Mother's voice was flat and full of majesty, so that Wang Xifeng did not dare to resist in the slightest, and walked a few steps forward along the ground covered with red carpet.

With such a close distance, Wang Xifeng had the opportunity and courage to look up at the Queen Mother,
This glance naturally shocked her heart.

The queen mother looks so young and beautiful!
But Wang Xifeng was not Jia Lian after all, she was shocked for a moment, and then her demeanor became more respectful.

After all, this is the most honorable woman in the world, not one of them.In the folk, she and the Supreme Emperor are both called "old sages".

"It really looks good."

The Queen Mother praised it, but Wang Xifeng didn't know how to respond.

Facing Yuan Chun, the former cousin, she dared to seize the opportunity to make jokes, but she didn't dare to face the Queen Mother, so she just smiled shyly.

In this way, the Empress Dowager didn't want to look at her too much, because the Empress Dowager could see that this was an ordinary aristocratic family, except for her beautiful appearance, there was nothing special about her body.

Judging from the information learned by sent people, she is neither virtuous nor virtuous, and is far behind her Zhaoyang.

"Do you know why I called you here today?"

Wang Xifeng responded awkwardly: "I also ask the Queen Mother to expressly..."

"More than a month ago, I went to the prince's other courtyard to play, when the prince invited me to hunt on horseback, but accidentally lost control of the horse.

Fortunately, Jia Lian, the second-class Zhenyuan general who was in charge of guarding at that time, rescued the palace, and the palace was able to be preserved..."

When the queen mother said this, Wang Xifeng's eyes suddenly lit up.

It turned out to be so!
What the queen mother said immediately solved all the doubts in her heart. No wonder Yuan Chun would say that she was promoted to imperial concubine because she had no conscience.

It turned out that by a coincidence without conscience, the queen mother was saved!

Who is the queen mother?That's the emperor's aunt, who saved the queen mother, such a credit... Wang Xifeng doesn't even know how to describe it.

It's just that, for making such a contribution without conscience, why not reward him directly, instead let Cousin Yuanchun be honored?Wang Xifeng, who was excited and happy, couldn't fully figure out the joints inside for a while.

Seeing the look in Wang Xifeng's eyes, the queen mother shook her head even more in her heart, and continued:
"Jia Lian saved Bengong, and I owe Bengong a kindness.

Besides, I see him as a young hero, and I want to betroth my most beloved princess to him as his wife. I don't know what you want. "

In the eyes of the queen mother, she really didn't see Wang Xifeng's "charming", only saw and heard Wang Xifeng's shortcomings.

Therefore, she didn't have a good sense of Wang Xifeng, and her tone of voice was naturally not very good.

And Wang Xifeng, who was still happy just a second ago, suddenly heard the Queen Mother's words, like falling into an ice cellar.

The queen mother, she wants, betroths the princess to someone who has no conscience? ?

what about me……

For a while, it was clear that midsummer was coming, but Wang Xifeng felt cold all over, suppressed tears, looked at the Queen Mother, and wanted to see from the Queen Mother's face whether she was joking with her.

"Why, you don't want to?"

The empress dowager's indifferent demeanor made Wang Xifeng unable to hold back tears any longer, and cried in a low voice: "But, empress dowager, my wife... If I follow the queen mother's words, how will my wife deal with herself..."

"This palace, and even the royal family, will give you enough compensation."

Tears blurred Wang Xifeng's eyes, and she could no longer see clearly the empress dowager's indifferent expression.

Facing the coercion of power, no matter how much she hates in her heart, she dare not reveal it.

In fact, she had expected this day, since she discovered that the unconscionable ones are getting better and better, and they are getting better and better, and even fascinated her.

That's why she accommodated him like that, watching Qingwen's little hoof jumping under her nose!
Do you really think that she, Lian's second grandma, can punt a boat in her stomach?

It's just a means to keep Jia Lian's heart at home.

It's just that she didn't expect that even though she was so careful and cautious, this day would still come.

Moreover, it arrived so quickly, it was so powerless to refute!
This is the empress dowager, who wants to betroth the emperor's daughter to a heartless person, what can she do?Not to mention her, she believes that any woman in the world will feel powerless from the inside out when facing her current situation.

yield?Complete?
However, she really likes heartless people, she has liked them since she was a child, and now, she can't extricate herself.

The unwillingness in her heart made her pluck up the courage to say while crying: "But, Queen Mother, my wife did not make a mistake, you, you can't do this..."

You are the empress dowager, how can you help your granddaughter rob me of my man without understanding the truth?
The Empress Dowager naturally knew that Wang Xifeng was not reconciled, but as a figure above the imperial power, even the life and death of ten thousand people was taken lightly, not to mention the mentality of a tricky woman.

"You didn't make any mistakes? As a great Wei girl, you don't practice virtue, you don't pay attention to the three obediences and four virtues. After you get married, you don't care for your husband and raise your children. You only know how to fight for power and win, greedy for fame and fortune, and even beat your own husband. How can you do this?" Dare to say that you are right?"

The queen mother's questioning made Wang Xifeng both feel aggrieved and indisputable.

Because what the Empress Dowager said was not out of thin air to slander her, she had obviously visited her secretly, and from this we can see that this is what the Empress Dowager deliberately planned to do!
The Empress Dowager had thought hard about what she wanted to do, not to mention just robbing her man, even taking her life would be as easy as pie, Wang Xifeng was sure of this.

So, besides crying, she couldn't think of what to do for a while.

The beautiful pear blossoms are raining, which arouses people's pity. Seeing this, the queen mother finally couldn't bear it.

But this bit of intolerance is insignificant compared with Zhaoyang's lifelong event.

Therefore, he continued to suppress Wang Xifeng's confidence, and said coldly: "Let's forget about these things, as the wife of an imperial court official, she should know the law and abide by the law, how dare you collude with local ruffians to do that deed of lending money to harm people and destroying the family! !"

This blow made Wang Xifeng's soul tremble.

His already weak body suddenly slumped on the ground, looking at the Queen Mother in horror.

The queen mother even knew about this.

"NO, I have not……"

Knowing the seriousness of the matter, Wang Xifeng subconsciously wanted to deny it.

The Empress Dowager interrupted mercilessly: "Since I have told you face to face, it is natural that I have found out your details.

Why, do you still want to confront Ben Gong in court? "

Wang Xifeng's face was ashen, confronting the queen mother in court?She's not that stupid.

So he said: "The ministers dare not, the ministers are also deceived by others, they say that most noble mansions in Beijing will release their spare money to generate interest, and the ministers also misheard their words.

But my wife has never thought of harming anyone, and has never done harm to anyone, and the people from those families and I just spend a thousand taels of silver every month, and they pay back the principal and interest on a monthly basis, that's all..."

Wang Xifeng was originally a smart person, but he never expected to be attacked by the Queen Mother.

She was unprepared, so naturally she couldn't organize effective words, so she could only pretend that everyone was doing it, and I was not the only one, trying to get rid of the crime.

The law does not blame the public, it has existed since ancient times.

But who is the queen mother?
"Oh, according to what you mean, you are not the only one who lent money to the noble mansion in Beijing, if this palace only deals with you, is it unfair?
Let me tell you, who else in Beijing is like you, lending money privately, look at this palace, do you dare to bring them all out and bring them to justice! "

Wang Xifeng's neck suddenly shrank.

Among all the nobles in the capital, even Shangshu Zaifu would be shocked by this name.

However, to the queen mother, it was nothing.

If she really dared to say it, even if the Queen Mother didn't deal with her, those people would hate her to death. From now on, she wouldn't be able to mess around in the elite circle of Beijing.

When you go out, you have to be careful of being tricked!
