King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 333

Imperial City, East Palace.

Outside the gate of the East Palace, wives of third rank and above had gathered one after another, and the number of them exceeded two hundred.

But like the imperial concubine and family members, no one knows the specific situation, so they can only discuss in private at the moment.

Outside the crowd, Mother Jia waited anxiously in the ear room with her two daughters-in-law and You Shi, the grandson-in-law.

They were left alone, and being out of the group made them feel very insecure.

In the cold wind, everyone waited for half an hour before they saw someone coming out from the Donghua Gate, it was the family members who came to congratulate.

Zongjuan was also a foreigner, and she was very familiar with the people waiting outside the East Palace. They gathered together and started chatting.

After this chat, everyone knew what was going on, and they were greatly surprised by what happened today.

At this moment, in the main hall of the East Palace, the prince was sitting dumbfounded. The strange thing was that he only knew the news.

This was actually because the emperor and the empress knew him very well, knowing that he had a deep affection for the first consort Lu, and would not want anyone to be the crown princess again.

From this point of view, Zhu Jingyuan is also a love interest.

But his emotional orientation does not affect his parents' arrangement, even if he is unwilling to accept it now, he can only sit in the hall and wait for Yuanchun to worship.

Like Zhu Jingyuan, the members of the Jia family in the ear room also knew about Yuan Chun's concubine at this moment.

They were in disbelief at first, and then they were surrounded by great joy. This was really something they couldn't even imagine.

The Crown Princess, the future Empress of the Central Palace, the Mistress of the Ming Dynasty...

Mother Jia was happy, and Mrs. Wang was even happier at the moment. She gave Mrs. Xing a provocative look, but the latter didn't dare to look at her at the moment.

"Holy Majesty Long En, Holy Majesty Long..." Jiamu knelt facing north.

Mrs. Wang and the others did not dare to be negligent, and they all knelt down, but their moods were also different.

"That girl Yuanchun, it's really amazing that she can be as good as she is today..."

Before Mrs. Wang could finish her sentence, she heard Mother Jia sternly teach her a lesson: "What girl? That's Her Royal Highness, the Crown Princess, and she should be honored as your empress!"

"Yes... yes, my daughter-in-law made a slip of the tongue, she deserves to be hit!" After realizing it, Mrs. Wang really slapped herself in the face.

At this moment, outside the ear room, there are eunuchs from the Eastern Palace guarding them, so they must be careful in their words.

When Yuanchun paid homage to Fengxian Hall and slowly returned to the East Palace, in the living room of Rongguo Mansion, Jia She and others who had not received any news were sitting together with sad faces.

Early this morning, someone came from the palace to order a high-ranking wife from Ningrong Second Mansion to enter the palace, but two hours have passed, but no news has come back.

When everyone was silent, they only heard Jia Zheng say: "It's approaching the end of the year, so it won't be a bad thing!"

But Jia Amnesty then said: "Nowadays, the situation in the court is unpredictable, and the officials who were punished have been implicated from the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Punishment. survived..."

Speaking of this, Jia She sighed: "Fortune and misfortune are really unpredictable!"

This made Jia Zheng unable to refute. Hundreds of officials in the court had been fined and dismissed. He really couldn't figure out what was going on behind the scenes.

At this time, Jia Zhen interjected: "You two uncles, is it a blessing or a curse, a disaster that cannot be avoided..."

But before he finished speaking, he heard someone shouting outside: "Second Master Lian is back..."

Everyone cheered up, and then looked at the door of the hall, and the next moment Jia Lian rushed in.

Since becoming the backup Dragon Guard, Jia Lian has not been idle during this period of time, pulling Jia Rong to practice continuously every day, his whole temperament has undergone a huge change.

"Master, Second Uncle..."

"What's going on in the palace?" Jia Amnesty stood up and asked.

After taking a few deep breaths, Jia Lian replied: "Sister Yuanchun, she..."

"What's up with her?"

"Today the Queen issued a decree to confer the title of eldest sister as Crown Princess!"

Upon hearing this, the reaction of Jia She and the others was similar to that of Jia's mother. They couldn't believe it at first, and then they were surrounded by great joy.

Of course, while being happy, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng had different moods.

Jia Zhen got up and walked in front of Jia Zheng, smiled and cupped her hands and said, "Congratulations to my second uncle, and congratulations to my younger sister Yuanchun for being crowned princess!"

"Fortunately, fortunately!" Jia Zheng couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Then he said: "Quick... inform the people in the house, let's open an ancestral hall to worship our ancestors!"

Jia Zhen is the head of the patriarch, and she immediately agreed upon hearing the words, and then went out to make arrangements.

"Second, congratulations!" Jia She said solemnly.

Sensing his brother's mentality, Jia Zheng also said solemnly: "Brother... we are all a family, we don't differentiate between each other!"

Following Jia Zhen's order to gather the clansmen, the news of Yuan Chun's appointment as the crown princess also spread in Rongguo Mansion.

In Baoyu Courtyard, Xiren hurried into the room, the joy on his face made all the girls very curious.

"Sister Xiren, what is the happy event?"

"A happy event, a great happy event, a great happy event!"

While talking, Xiren walked into Baoyu's study, only to see the master lying on the couch, covering his face with a book.

Going forward, she first added charcoal to the brazier, and after waking Baoyu awake, she said, "Second Lord Bao, what a joyful event!"

However, Baoyu didn't respond, and put the book on his face again.

He didn't go to school in Tianhan recently, but Mrs. Wang regarded him strictly, and he was upset if he didn't go anywhere.

What's even more disturbing is that even when they went to find Daiyu, they couldn't say a few words, and the relationship was obviously much more distant than before.

He felt that Daiyu had changed, but after thinking about it, he felt that the other party hadn't changed, but she knew a lot more than before.

It was as if, like Baochai, he would say some empty and grand truths, which made him feel uncomfortable...

Just as Baoyu was thinking about these troublesome things, the attacker took away the books on his face, and then listened to him softly say: "Second Lord, it's a great joy...the young lady has been crowned the princess!"

This news also surprised Jia Baoyu, but before he could be happy, he lost interest again.

In his heart, only Daiyu...

"Second Master is not happy?"

"Happy!" Baoyu responded casually.

Seeing him acting strangely again, Xiren reminded: "Today is a happy day. The masters have said that they will open an ancestral hall to worship their ancestors. Second Master, you should pack up quickly and get ready to go to the ancestral hall!"

"This is a business, don't delay!"

With Xiren's words, even if Baoyu didn't want to move, he had to get up and clean up at this moment.

Opening an ancestral hall to worship ancestors has basically nothing to do with the female family members, but when the news spread to the inner house, it still caused quite a stir.

"Princess, Sister Yuanchun is really amazing!"

In the study, Yingchun opened her mouth without haste. Seeing her like this, she must be able to improve her study of the Taishang Induction Chapter.

"Yes, this is a blessing!" Tan Chun couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and he was also very envious in his heart.

But at the same time as he was envious, Tanchun also felt a little bit sad, secretly sighing that he didn't have such a blessing in his life.

Of course, Tanchun would never reveal her thoughts like this, because if she told her, she would be laughed out of her mind, mocking her for not knowing how high the sky is.

At this time Daiyu said: "If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight... I am afraid that the position of the crown prince is not so easy to sit in!"

Tan Chun nodded, now that the Crown Prince is fighting with Prince Rui, Yuan Chun has become a royal daughter-in-law, while gaining honor, she will definitely encounter even greater difficulties.

But I heard Yingchun say: "The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, so it's not difficult...it will be fine once it passes!"

Hearing this, Daiyu and Tanchun looked at each other and smiled.

The two of them are actually very envious of Yingchun, they don't hear anything outside the window, and they only read sage books.
