Red Mansion Beijingwang

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is the summer solstice. The sun is like a big furnace, baking the earth hot. Even the air is hot, and people sweat all over when they move.

Daiyu, Yingchun, Xichun, and Xing Xiyan were originally guests at the palace, and it was not suitable for them to stay there for a long time, so they returned to the Rongguo Mansion not long ago.

In the Rongguo Mansion, in the wing where Daiyu lived, there was an ice cube in an ice container, and a slight cool breeze spread throughout the room, making the room less hot.

At this moment, Daiyu was lazily leaning on the soft couch, her black hair spread out like clouds, her silky purple dress was loose, revealing her soft and smooth white skin, her two curved eyebrows seemed to be frowned, her pair of sparkling eyes were in a trance, she murmured in a low voice: "I don't know what my brother is doing."

The two had just established a relationship, but they separated within two days. Naturally, they thought about each other all the time.

But the girl felt resentful when she thought of the young man. Even if she was no longer in the palace, he could come to the Duke's Mansion to see her. At worst, he could take them back to the palace as soon as possible. But there was no news at all.

"It must be that my brother was tripped up by his good sister."

When Daiyu thought of her brother's character, her two thin eyebrows raised slightly and her fair face began to murmur, which was actually very cute.

At this time, Daiyu couldn't help but envy Tanchun and Baochai. After all, they were truly her brother's women.

On the other hand, she was sneaky.

Just as the girl was hesitating, Zijuan came in and whispered, "Miss, Master Bao is here."

After saying this, Baoyu lifted the curtain and walked in. Daiyu could not help but frown. She hurriedly got up and tidied herself up. A bit of displeasure appeared on her pretty face. She could not help but spit, "Second Brother Bao, how could you just barge in?"

It's not like we were kids, there are so many differences between men and women, Baoyu just barged into a girl's bedroom, he was so ignorant, it was his brother
When Baoyu heard this, his silver-moon face, which was originally filled with joy, was stunned. Under his delicate eyebrows, his eyes slightly widened, with a hint of disbelief.

In the past, he would just lift the curtain and enter, and he had never been unfamiliar with Lin Daiyu. Why was he being so distant now?

After a long silence, Baoyu looked at Daiyu who was adjusting her clothes, shook his head, and said with a smile: "I am a little rude, please don't be angry with me, sister."

I think it’s because his sister is getting older, not because of being distant. His Lin Daiyu is still the same Lin Daiyu.

Daiyu sighed slightly when she saw Baoyu's playful smile, but she didn't care. She nodded and said softly, "Why is Second Brother Bao here at this time?"

After all, they had grown up together and had a friendship. Baoyu had always been playful and had no other intentions, so Daiyu didn't want to say too much.

Could it be that she told Baoyu that she had someone in her heart, so that Baoyu would be sensitive about the difference between men and women and not let her brother misunderstand?

Baoyu sat down on a brocade cushion nearby. Seeing Daiyu regain her composure and her moon-like face filled with smiles, he knew that Sister Lin was no longer estranged from him. He said, "I was thinking of you, so I came to see you."

Ever since his sisters from the mansion went to the prince's palace, Baoyu could only read those books, and he had been bored for a long time. Now that his sisters have come back, what kind of books is he still reading?

Especially Lin Daiyu, after not seeing her for a while, her complexion looks much rosier than before, and she becomes more charming and lovely. Just looking at her makes people feel relaxed.

Daiyu frowned slightly when she heard this. In the past, she didn't think of him when she heard him miss her, but now thinking about this, Daiyu felt a little unhappy.

But Daiyu also understood Baoyu's innocent nature and pretty face, so she didn't say anything.

Baoyu took the tea handed to him by Zijuan and took a sip. He did not notice the strange look on the girl's face and asked with great interest, "Did my younger sister and second elder sister have a good time at my brother-in-law's place?"

Talking about this, Baoyu felt a little annoyed. His sisters could all go to the palace, but he couldn't. Moreover, he had to study some stupid books. It was really biased.

Oh, I really miss the time when my sisters and I were all in the Duke’s Mansion. We were so happy!

"Well, it's okay." Daiyu replied calmly.

Baoyu chuckled, not caring about the girl's calmness. He smiled and changed the subject, saying, "By the way, are Sister Bao and the third girl okay?"

With Bao-jie, San-ya-tou, Yun-ya-tou and others in the palace, it must be very lively.

Daiyu smiled and said, "They are very nice, especially Yun. She hangs out with Baoqin all day long, running around everywhere and can't calm down."

Baoyu heard this and his eyes were filled with envy. He could not help but said sourly, "Yun girl is the same. She always runs to the Prince's Mansion and doesn't even know how to come to the Duke's Mansion. She is so heartless."

Baochai and Tanchun are from the palace, so naturally they have nothing to say to each other. But Xiangyun is not like that. If she cares about something, she should think of her second brother.

Daiyu glanced at Baoyu, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said mockingly, "Just think of Yun girl and invite her. Do you really want a little girl to come forward? What a fool."

Xiangyun is a little girl. How could she not come to the palace without the invitation of her elders? Even if she lives in the palace, it is because of her brother. Otherwise, Xiangyun would not be able to leave the Shi family.

If Baoyu really wanted to do it, he could have begged Lady Jia to ask for help, but now he is just making sarcastic remarks.

In fact, Daiyu has always known about the boy's soft character, but she thought that his character was unsettled and would be fine when he grew up. However, at the moment, Daiyu doesn't like it very much.

Without a filter, smart characters like Baochai, Daiyu, Tanchun, etc., know that although Baoyu is a caring person, he cannot handle things.

When Baoyu heard Daiyu's sarcastic words, he didn't agree with it and was even happy about it.

After all, Daiyu, who spoke in this tone, was the sister Lin that he had been thinking about all the time. It had been a while since he had heard Sister Lin's pungent words, and Baoyu was still missing her strangely.

After a pause, Baoyu said with a somewhat sullen look on his face, "Sister, you are absolutely right."

Let him ask Lady Jia to intervene. If the master finds out, he will be scolded.

Daiyu obviously knew what Baoyu was thinking. She felt sad and had no interest in chatting. She pursed her lips and said softly, "Second Brother Bao, I am a little tired. If you have nothing else to do, you might as well go back first."

Baoyu: “.”

He had just arrived, had just said a few words, and hadn't even finished his cup of tea, so why did his sister want to chase him away?
At this moment, no matter how slow Baoyu was, he noticed that something was wrong with Sister Lin. If it had happened in the past, Sister Lin would have been so eager to welcome him that she would never have let him go.

Thinking of this, Baoyu's face fell and he stared at the petite figure. Although it was right in front of him, it seemed as if it was at the horizon.

As expected, my sister became estranged from him.

Daiyu saw that Baoyu looked dazed and a little worried, but since she had made up her mind, she couldn't do anything inappropriate.

As her mind turned to a thousand thoughts, Daiyu softened her tone and said softly, "Second Brother Bao, I am really a little tired. You should go back first."

Baoyu looked dazed, feeling empty inside. He stood up and walked out of the house, like a body without a soul, with a dazed look on his face.

Zijuan looked at Baoyu's lost figure and said worriedly, "Miss, Master Bao will be alright, right?"

She was not worried about Baoyu, but more about her own girl. As the saying goes, the past mistakes are lessons for the future. Generally speaking, Baoyu's behavior would definitely cause chaos in the Duke's Mansion, and in the end her own girl would be blamed.

Daiyu heard this, her bright eyes flashed under her willow-leaf eyebrows, and she finally sighed and said helplessly: "Second Brother Bao is always like this, his character is uncertain, let him be for now, if he really makes trouble..."

Daiyu did not say what came next. After all, she was just suffering from some cold remarks from the people in the mansion, which had happened before.

Although she understood it, Daiyu couldn't help feeling aggrieved.

At this moment, the girl thought of that gentle figure again, her eyes full of water. If she was in the palace, she would not be as worried and scared as she is now.

After all, you are always living under someone else's roof and have to depend on others for what they do.

Upon hearing this, Zijuan stared at the sentimental girl, with a hint of sadness lingering between her curved brows. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart and didn't say anything for a while.

In fact, Zijuan felt that her daughter did nothing wrong. After all, it was she who helped to break the barrier between the daughter and the prince, so it would be better for her to separate from Master Bao as soon as possible.

It doesn't mean to abandon the friendship between childhood sweethearts, but it should be distinguished from the love between men and women.

Over here, Xiren was in the courtyard. When she saw Baoyu coming out of the house, her eyes lit up slightly. When she realized that the young man seemed to be absent-minded, her heart tightened and she hurried forward to ask with concern: "Second Master, what's wrong? Did you quarrel with Miss Lin again?"

These two ancestors are like this. They think about each other when they are not together, but start quarreling as soon as they meet, and no one can persuade them to stop.

Baoyu seemed to have heard nothing, and kept walking out, but he was muttering in his heart: "Sister Lin is chasing me away, sister is chasing me away." Seeing Baoyu's distraught and deaf ears, Xiren was terrified. Her beautiful eyes widened, and there was worry between her eyebrows. She thought to herself: "Is the Second Master crazy?"

Thinking of this, Xiren could not care about anything else at the moment, and hurriedly shook Baoyu's arm, calling out: "Second Master, Second Master, wake up."

At this moment, Xiren, having been warned by the last time she shouted loudly, did not dare to make it known to everyone. She just kept on calling out, the nervousness in her eyes and brows was evident.

Seeing that Baoyu was indifferent, Xiren bit her pink lips lightly with her pearly teeth. She no longer hesitated, a determination flashed in her eyes, and she reached out and pinched Baoyu's philtrum.

I still remember that last time Baoyu was possessed by a demon, it was the experienced nanny who reminded him to pinch the Ren Zhong point.

"hiss"

Girls' nails are naturally long and thin, and Xiren had no experience, so her nails, like blades, dug into the flesh, causing Baoyu to cry out in pain.

At this moment, Baoyu was already upset about Daiyu's matter, and being pinched like this made him even more furious. He didn't even notice who was in front of him, and kicked her, cursing, "You obscene thing, get out of here!"

Xiren was kicked unexpectedly and fell straight to the ground, holding her abdomen in pain, her pretty face full of pain.

In a moment, Xiren raised her delicate head and looked at the young man. Her bright eyes under her willow-leaf brows were filled with tears, and there was a deep sense of sadness between her brows.

She didn't expect that the Second Master would kick her.

To be honest, ever since she started serving Baoyu, she has served him wholeheartedly and never dared to be absent-minded. She has given her whole heart to Baoyu. Even though Baoyu failed to protect her last time, Xiren felt disappointed, but she did not take it too seriously.

But this time, she was kicked by Baoyu for no reason and was scolded as a vulgar thing, which made Xiren feel ashamed, angry and painful.

But the other party was the master after all, so Xiren could only endure it and keep any grievances in her heart.

At this moment, Baoyu realized that he had kicked Xiren, his face changed, and he hurried forward to comfort her: "Sister Xiren, are you okay?"

"Cough cough."

When Xiren heard Baoyu's words of comfort, she felt a little relieved. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly felt unbearable pain. She couldn't help coughing a few times and spitting out phlegm.

When Baoyu saw the blood, he was shocked and let go of Xiren's hand, with a look of panic on his face.

When Xiren saw this, her heart sank.

At this moment, she was kicked by Baoyu and was about to vomit blood, but Baoyu's first reaction was to look down on her and show no concern at all. How could this not make people feel heartbroken?

Baoyu couldn't care about anything else at this moment. The blood made him nervous and a little confused.

Inside the house, Daiyu and Zijuan heard the strange noise and came out. When they saw the scene in front of them, they were immediately panicked and hurried forward to check on Xiren's condition.

Seeing the blood on the ground, Daiyu could not help but get angry. Her bright eyes showed her anger and she said angrily, "Why did you hit Xiren? Are you crazy?"

There were only Baoyu and Xiren in the yard. It was obvious that Xiren had been beaten like this at this moment. Who else could it be except Baoyu?

He just said a few harsh words before, but he actually took his anger out on Xiren. Didn't he know that Xiren was his close friend, and how could he be so heartless?

When Baoyu heard this, his face turned as pale as liver. He wanted to refute, but the fact was that he was the one who kicked Xiren, so he had no way to refute it. His lips trembled with anger.

At this time, Baoyu habitually reached out and grabbed the spiritual jade around his neck and threw it hard to the ground.

When he was undecided, he would throw the jade, which was Baoyu's usual practice.

With a "crack", the spiritual jade broke into two pieces, drew several arcs in the air, and flew towards the bushes. It disappeared in an instant.

Seeing this, Daiyu and Zijuan's faces changed drastically. Even Xiren, who was coughing up blood, was concerned about the pain in her upper abdomen. Her bright eyes under her willow-leaf eyebrows widened.

At this moment, even Baoyu's eyes widened, and his silver moon-like face turned pale.

The spiritual jade was broken.

Beijing Prince's Mansion, Fengyiting.

Yuanchun was wearing a loose dress, leaning lazily on the soft couch. The bronze ice jar was filled with ice cubes, and a hint of coolness filled the room, refreshing the heart.

After all, Yuanchun is the inheritor of Prince Beijing's Mansion, so she cannot be careless at all. Ice cubes, which are essential in summer, are supplied in Fengyi Court in an endless supply, and she does not care about the cost at all.

At this time, Shui Rong was holding a bowl of cooled bird's nest. He carefully scooped a spoonful and handed it to Yuanchun's lips. He then started to do the work of a maid and servant, serving her carefully and meticulously.

Bird's nest can nourish yin and moisten dryness, maintain skin, replenish blood and activate blood circulation, and is suitable for pregnant women.

Yuanchun took a sip, and beneath her brilliant eyebrows, her crystal clear eyes looked at the young man affectionately, and said gently: "My husband still has official business to attend to, so it is more important to go and take care of the business first. There is no need to stay here with me."

The dignified Prince Beijing had to do the work of a servant, serving her and making soup for her. When the news got out, people said that the princess was a seductive woman who seduced her master.

Shui Rong couldn't deny what he heard, and said with a smile: "It's okay, there's nothing wrong, accompanying my wife is more important than anything else."

Since he is here, he naturally has no official business. I believe Yuanchun herself understands that what she said now is nothing more than the little thoughts of a girl.

If Shui Rong really agreed, Yuanchun would probably roll her eyes at him.

Pregnant women are very sensitive. The two nephews' wives are a lesson for us.

As expected, after hearing this, Yuanchun's bright starry eyes narrowed slightly, her eyebrows and eyes smiled, and two dimples appeared on her plump face, just like a bright crabapple.

Yuanchun took a bite of the bird's nest that was passed to her lips, wiped her lips with the handkerchief in her hand, and said with a hint of coquettishness in her voice: "Okay, I can't eat any more."

Although she enjoyed the young man's service, she really couldn't eat anymore.

Shui Rong nodded, but didn't say anything. After drinking the bird's nest in one gulp, he smiled and said, "The bird's nest that my wife has eaten has a different taste."

When Yuanchun heard this, her plump face heated up slightly. She caught a glimpse of Baoqin laughing secretly with her hands covering her mouth. She felt ashamed and annoyed. She glared at the boy with her bright starry eyes and spat, "My husband is always so frivolous and rude."

When the young man was outside, he was humble and behaved like a gentleman, but at home, especially on the bed, he acted like a scoundrel, with all kinds of tricks.

But Yuanchun knew in her heart that she did not hate this kind of boy. On the contrary, she was happy about him because he always brought her a fresh feeling which made her feel thrilling.

After a moment of silence, Yuanchun's eyes flickered, and she suddenly said, "I know that my husband loves me, but he should not neglect the other sisters."

He is young and full of vigor, and now his body is not fit for service, so he can only let other sisters serve him. While serving his husband, he can also gain a reputation for being magnanimous.

How could that be? Are we just going to let the young man just sit there and watch? That would be harmful to his health.

Shui Rong chuckled and nodded, but didn't say anything. What else could he say to such a gentle, respectful and frugal wife?

Looking at the young man's calm expression, Yuanchun knew that this was a tacit understanding between husband and wife. She pursed her lips and reminded him, "My husband, the two sisters of the You family have been in the mansion for quite some time. You should go and comfort them when you have time."

Speaking of which, the sisters of the You family are close to her. She has been in the palace for more than half a year, but has been delayed until now. The prince is not in a hurry, and the sisters of the You family are helpless.

Now is the perfect time for the You sisters to take the stage.

Shui Rong was stunned for a moment, then he thought about it and felt that it made sense. The You sisters had indeed been left alone for too long, especially since they had been honest with each other. It was time to give them some peace of mind.

"Your Highness, Xueyan, who is with Miss Lin, is here." At this moment, Jin Chuan'er, who was guarding outside, reported.

Hearing this, Shui Rong frowned. Xueyan came to look for him, so it must be that something serious happened to Pin'er. Otherwise, she wouldn't have sent someone to look for him. (End of this chapter)
