Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 98 Tips (Part [-])
When he came out, Jiang Changning told him about Xie's family, and explained: "When I was in the boudoir, I got along well with her, so this time I will see her."

Hearing her words, King Jin knew that Jiang Changning was worried about Xie Baoyin's marriage to Qin Zhaoxi.

Qin Zhaoxi is the empress dowager's nephew, a natural royalist.

"It doesn't matter, you can associate with her if you want." King Jin smiled.

Jiang Changning smiled, but he had already made up his mind that he would not have too close contact with Xie Baoyin, and would pay more attention when getting along.

The next day, Xie Baoyin came as promised, and Xiulan led her into Zhengzhengyuan.

Seeing Jiang Changning, Xie Baoyin smiled and said, "Princess, Happy New Year."

"Sister Yin, happy new year, sit down and talk." Jiang Changning smiled.

The maid came in with tea and then withdrew.

"When did Sister Yin come to Beijing? Is the journey all right?" Jiang Changning asked with a smile.

"I came to Beijing on the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month. Everything else was fine, but it was too cold. It was unbearably cold on the road, and my grandmother also fell ill." Xie Baoyin explained why she didn't visit the mansion before the year before.

"It's really a pain to drive in winter." Jiang Changning also suffered from this when he went north.

After Xie Baoyin echoed a few words, she said: "Sister Ning, I won't play around with you. I'm here today to ask Sister Ning to remind me."

"If you don't want to mention something, just ask if you don't understand something, and if I know something, I will tell you." Jiang Changning laughed.

"My father is just a small military officer. The various prefectures in the capital are deeply intertwined, so I'm afraid that I might offend someone if I'm not careful."

Jiang Changning laughed. Xie Baoyin's words were too modest. Xie Jiancheng was promoted after he was transferred to the capital, but now he is the leader of the Second Rank Left Wing Battalion.

In this capital, he can be regarded as the No. [-] person.

"Although there are many mansions in the capital, those are the ones you need to care about. Among the palaces, Prince Qing's mansion is the most respected by the emperor."

"Concubine Qing is getting old, she doesn't care about things, and now the concubine is in charge, and the concubine is the niece of Mrs. Long Xibo."

"The eldest grandma in the mansion, Mrs. Xu, is the eldest daughter of Duke Wei's son. She is a kind person when you first meet her, but when you get along with her, you just know people and know each other. Be careful when you deal with her in the future. That's all."

It is impossible for Jiang Changning and Xu Shi to get along well, and when they speak ill of her, they are straightforward.

Xie Baoyin was greatly moved, and felt that Jiang Changning treated her sincerely, "Sister Xie Ning reminds me."

Jiang Changning smiled, and continued: "When I got married, the eldest princess of Jiashan was the family of Quanfu. When I went out, the Duke of Xinjian and the eldest princess of Jiashan agreed to be my parents. Our two houses have very close contacts."

This is all on the bright side, even if she doesn't say it, Xie Baoyin can find it from other places, and there is nothing impossible to say about it.

"The lady of Xingzhou County is the younger sister of the empress dowager. I met her twice at the banquet, but I didn't have a chance to talk to her. She seems quite amiable."

"On the day of the New Year's Eve, the Duke's wife sent a gift." Xie Baoyin said.

Jiang Changning sincerely blessed: "It seems that the Qin family is quite satisfied with this marriage. Congratulations, Sister Yin."

Xie Baoyin pursed her lips and smiled, she was also full of expectations for this marriage.

"Jiang Shi, the second grandmother of Baling Prince's Mansion, likes to take the younger sisters of her natal family to various banquets, and tries to send the younger sisters to various mansions to serve as concubines for the men of the mansions."

"This Jiang family is too willing to degenerate." Xie Baoyin said with a frown.

"When you see her in the future, don't be too polite. If you are polite, you will be covered with dog skin plaster. If you don't accept a daughter of the Jiang family, you won't be able to escape."

"This is truly the world's largest, full of wonders."

"Concubine Yu is Zhao Xifang, and King Ningxia is Song Yirou. You have also met them in the palace and know what kind of people they are, so I won't say more."

"Wives of officials, I don't have much contact with them. I have met Mrs. Chen's aunt in our mansion, the wife of the left servant of the Ministry of Rites a few times. She is quite rich and very resourceful."

After talking about the situation in each prefecture, I talked about the gossip in Beijing in recent days.

"Grandmother is really willing to let Miss Zhuang Wu be the concubine of the son-in-law?"

"If you can climb up to the princess mansion, why don't you want to?"

Xie Baoyin bit the corner of her lower lip, and said in a low voice, "Aren't you afraid that Princess Yirao will leave her mother and keep her child?"

Jiang Changning took a sip of his tea, "Princess Yirao doesn't have to do this."

Even if Zhuang Qingmei successfully gave birth to a son, a concubine's eldest son would not be able to shake Yirao's position as the eldest princess.

Jiang Changning left Xie Baoyin for lunch in the mansion, and then prepared a gift for her to take back.

Not long after Xie Baoyin left, Shu Fei came in to report: "Princess, people from Baling Palace came to report the funeral."

"Princess Baling died, right?" Jiang Changning guessed.

Jiang Changning didn't want to discuss condolences with Mrs. Qiao, so he went to Liuxuanyuan.

At the gate of the courtyard, I met Mrs. Qiao who came in a hurry.

Jiang Changning smiled and nodded, "Sister-in-law."

Qiao sneered coldly, and rushed into the yard.

Hearing the bad news, Princess Jin was not surprised, "She has been ill for so long, and it is not easy for her to survive this year. When she gets older, she will return to her roots like fallen leaves in autumn."

Mrs. Qiao hurriedly said: "My concubine is in good health, and she will surely live a long life."

The concubine glanced at her, "Get the silk money ready first, don't rush to offer condolences, wait for the prince to come back and talk about it."

"Mother and Concubine, how suitable is this silk and gold seal?" Qiao asked.

"You don't have to ask me about this, as long as the old regulations are, I can seal as many as possible." The concubine said displeasedly.

Mrs. Qiao hurriedly went to the account room to seal the silk gold. Jiang Changning explained to her: "There are many things during the Chinese New Year, and my sister-in-law is busy going in and out. She got dizzy for a while, and lost her way of doing things."

The concubine curled her lips, "I know I'm busy all day long."

"Kang Ren grew up gradually, and his sister-in-law is also a kind mother, and she wants Kang Ren to have a good reputation as a talented woman."

"Does the Princess of Jin Palace need to use this method to gain fame? She is just stupid." The concubine became even angrier after being persuaded by Jiang Changning.

"My concubine is right, so I said, if there is no concubine in the mansion, I don't know what kind of chaos it will be." Jiang Changning complimented.

Concubine Toffee smiled, stretched out her fingers and tapped her twice, "You are sweet-talking."

Half an hour later, King Jin came back, "Tomorrow I will take the princess to Baling Palace to express my condolences."

Joe was anxious, "Don't I have to go?"

"Sister-in-law, isn't it enough to have King Jin and Princess Jin go to offer condolences? A county princess died of illness, even if she is an elder, the whole family did not go there." Jiang Changning's eyes turned, "Mother, what do you think?"

"Brother Yu's daughter-in-law is right." The concubine glared at Mrs. Qiao, "You, just stay at home and rest, so as not to get dizzy and do stupid things."

At the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, Mrs. Qiao asked Princess Kangren to come out to perform. The concubine couldn't bear it from the bottom of her heart.
