My Red Mansion Career

Chapter 196

Seeing that Queen Bai really planned to give the medicine to Queen Mother Li, the chief physician quickly stepped forward to persuade her:

"The Supreme Emperor...the Queen, the origin of this medicine is unknown. If it is given to the Queen Mother rashly, I am afraid that something will happen to me."

"Physician Zhou, have you figured out how to cure the Queen Mother's fever?" Queen Bai asked in return.

"This……"

Doctor Zhou was at a loss for words. If there was a way, he would have used it long ago, and a group of people would not be helpless now.

Finally, the Supreme Emperor made the decision: "Okay... I have made the decision. Let the Queen Mother take the medicine."

Now that the Emperor had made the decision, Doctor Zhou finally stopped trying to dissuade her.

In fact, the reason why he came to dissuade him was not a means of self-protection.

Queen Bai ordered people to get warm water and helped the Queen Mother up. After a while, several people worked hard and finally let Queen Mother Li swallow the pills.

After taking the medicine, not only did everyone not feel relaxed, but they became even more nervous.

Time passed slowly, and Dai Quan personally brought the stools and asked Emperor Changping and Queen Bai to sit down.

The two of them didn't go far and sat down beside the bed.

There was silence in the palace. The Emperor, Emperor Changping and the Queen, the three most noble people in the Great Xia Kingdom, did not speak, let alone the others.

The surrounding maids and eunuchs all watched with their noses and noses in mind, and they were all silent, not even daring to cough.

It was dark at night, and suddenly a palace maid shouted in surprise: "The Queen Mother is sweating... The Queen Mother is starting to sweat!"

"what!"

Several imperial doctors around him almost jumped up when they heard this.

Especially Dr. Zhou, who rushed to the bed at a speed that was incompatible with his age, reached out and touched the Queen Mother's forehead.

When he took his hand back, he looked at the sweat on his fingers with a look of surprise on his face, "I'm sweating, the Queen Mother is saved, the Queen Mother is saved!"

Several imperial doctors from around also rushed to the bed, diagnosing the pulse and checking the tongue coating, and they were all busy for a while.

Seeing that Queen Mother Li was finally sweating, Queen White's small hands that had been clenched into fists finally slowly relaxed.

To be honest, Queen Mother Li was still worried after giving her medicine.

After all, she had given the medicine herself. If it had no effect or even worsened, even if the Emperor did not pursue the matter, with so many people in the palace looking at her, her reputation would be greatly damaged once word spread.

Now that she is fine, Queen Mother Li begins to sweat, which proves that the medicine is effective.

The imperial doctors were busy for a while, and then the imperial doctor Zhou bowed to the Supreme Emperor, Emperor Changping and Empress Bai:

"Congratulations to Your Majesty... Congratulations to the Empress Dowager. Her fever has finally begun to subside. Just now, Wei Chen took the Empress Dowager's pulse again.

Now my pulse condition has become much more stable, and I can start taking some mild medicine to regulate my body.

If there are no accidents, the Queen Mother will be able to recover with just a few more days of conditioning. "

"Okay...very good...come...see the reward!" The Supreme Emperor finally showed a smile on his gloomy face, and with a wave of his hand, he rewarded these imperial doctors.

After the several imperial doctors withdrew with gratitude, the White Empress also smiled and said: "Father, you have rewarded these imperial doctors. Don't forget the real owner who presented this medicine."

The Emperor still valued this well-known daughter-in-law very much.

Hearing this, he smiled and said, "You just said that this medicine was presented by Dingyuan Bo Jia Yu's wife, right?"

"Exactly!"

The Supreme Emperor turned to look at Emperor Changping: "Fourth...what do you mean?"

At the mention of Jia Yu, Emperor Changping couldn't help but snorted: "This bastard is always causing trouble, so let me wipe his ass.

If you don’t punish him, it’s considered a good thing, but he still wants to be rewarded, how beautiful he is!

Father, please ignore him. "

"Fourth!"

The Supreme Emperor's face darkened when he heard this, "The most taboo thing for a king is not to reward one's merits and not to punish one's faults. Have you been the emperor all these years in vain?

This time, the medicine he presented saved your mother. If our royal family doesn't even show any signs of it, how will the people and officials in the world view our royal family if word spreads about it? "

Faced with the scolding from the Supreme Emperor, Emperor Changping could only bow down and accept the instruction.

After the training, the Supreme Emperor pondered for a moment, then turned to ask Dai Quan, who had been standing behind Emperor Changping like a clay sculpture, "Dai Quan... As the magistrate of the Zhongche Mansion, you are in charge of the royal family's eyes and ears.

Let me ask you now, what has Jia Yu been doing recently? "

Dai Quan secretly glanced at Emperor Changping, and when he saw that his master had no reaction, he lowered his head and whispered: "If I go back to the Supreme Emperor, if Jia Yu wants to take a concubine in the future, the one she takes will be the concubine sister of his original wife Jia Yuanchun.

Therefore, Jia Yu held a grand banquet in Rongguo Mansion the next day, and wanted to invite several princes of Dongping County, Annan County, Beijing County and those from the Duke's Mansion to attend.

It is said that the post has been sent out. "

The Supreme Emperor couldn't help laughing and said: "Haha... It seems that what the fourth child said is really right, this boy is really not a peaceful master, he even made it so grand to take a concubine.

It stands to reason that I should reward this guy for saving the Queen Mother, but a few days ago, Fourth Brother, you just rewarded him with a hereditary and irreplaceable Uncle Dingyuan, and his first wife is now a countess, which is a bit difficult to deal with. . "

"Hey... I have it!"

The Supreme Emperor seemed to have thought of something, stroking his beard and said: "Fourth!"

"My son is here!" Emperor Changping responded.

"Isn't that kid going to take a concubine the day after tomorrow? So... on the day after tomorrow, you send someone to..."

The third day is coming soon

On this day, the huge Ningrong Street was extremely lively, and all the dignitaries in Shenjing City who considered themselves respectable gathered here.

And today, the central gate of Rongguo Mansion is also wide open.

Jia Yu stood at the door to greet the guests personally.

Today, the dignitaries in the Shenjing circle are also very generous. The head of Zhenguo Palace is Bo Niu Jizong, the first-class son of Li Guogong Palace is Liu Fang, the third-rank powerful general Chen Rui of Qi Guogong Palace, and the third-rank Wei Guoguo Kungfu Far General Ma Shang and the heads of the Twelve Marquises' Mansion all came.

Among the four kings with different surnames, Mu Shibai, the king of Dong'an County, and Shui Rong of the Beijing Prince's Palace also personally congratulated, and the concubine of the Nan'an County Prince's Palace also came with her grandson.

Also joining him were family members from various prefectures.

There were hundreds of people in the crowd.

In order to receive these people, almost the entire Ning Rong Mansion was mobilized, and thousands of subordinates were so busy that they almost flew into the air.

When the people passing by Ningrong Street saw how lively Ningrong's Second Mansion was, they couldn't help asking each other curiously.

When they finally learned that it was because Jia Yu, the son-in-law of Rongguo Mansion, Dingyuan Bo, made such a big fuss in order to take a concubine, everyone was amazed.

"A while ago, Uncle Dingyuan didn't make such a fuss even if he got a wife, and now even if he takes a concubine, he won't make such a fuss.

Who among you brothers knows the background of this concubine? "Hey...I know this."

The cousin of one of my cousin's cousins ​​works as an errand in the Rongguo Mansion. I heard that the concubine that Lord Jia took today is the sister of the main wife of Uncle Dingyuan. She is just a concubine, so... you know …”

"Oh……"

Everyone exclaimed in surprise. As for what they really understood, only they themselves knew.

Some well-informed people were also muttering in their hearts. It seemed that the Rongguo Mansion was starting to tremble again. Taking a concubine actually alarmed so many big shots.

No one else knew whether Rongguo Mansion was shaking or not, but Jia Yu, who was in charge of welcoming the guests, felt that her face was about to freeze with laughter.

After standing for almost two hours, the guests were welcomed into Rongguo Mansion.

After checking that there were no more guests outside the door, he checked again and then turned around and entered the mansion.

Today, Rongguo Mansion also placed the welcoming venue in Rongxi Hall.

Different from Rongqing Hall, Rongxi Hall was the place where two generations of Rongguo Mansion entertained important guests.

Since Jia Daishan's death, Jia's mother was afraid of seeing things and missing people, so Rongxi Hall has been semi-closed until today.

It has to be said that Rongxi Hall is indeed magnificent. The plaque with the words "Rongxi Hall" hanging at the door was written by the founding emperor of Daxia. There is also the emperor's seal underneath: "Treasure of Ten Thousands of Chenhans" "

Today, all the heads of the Royal Palace and the Duke's Palace gathered in the Ronxi Hall and took their seats one by one.

Niu Jizong from Zhenguo Duke's Mansion glanced at everyone and said, "Brothers and brothers, we haven't sat together for a long time."

"Yes!"

First Class Liu Fang also sighed: "It seems to have been more than ten years. Ever since Uncle Daishan passed away, we old brothers have never gotten together like this again."

This sentence brought back everyone's memories, yes... Ever since the incident at Tiewan Mountain, the four princes and eight princes of the past could never return to their original harmonious relationship.

Shui Rong from the Beijing Palace smiled at Jia Zheng who was sitting next to him and said, "Uncle Zheng Shi, I didn't expect that I just drank your wedding wine a few months ago, and today you are inviting us to drink it again.

Fortunately, you only have two daughters. If you give birth to a few more daughters, no matter how much wealth we all have, you will have to wipe out it! "

"Hahaha……"

Shuixu's words also made everyone present laugh.

Outside the steps of Rongxi Hall, Lin Zhixiao and dozens of servants stood respectfully below, ready to obey orders at any time.

You must know that most of the people in Daxia's noble circle are sitting here. If anything happens, it will be a shocking event, and you must not be careless.

Furthermore, he had only been in the position of chief steward of the Rongguo Mansion for only two days, so no matter what he did, he did it himself with trepidation.

Amidst the laughter, Jia Zheng blushed and said with cupped hands: "I am ashamed, I am ashamed... I have made all you brothers, brothers and nephews laugh."

Looking at Jia Zheng's performance, although everyone's smiles did not change, they were also sighing in their hearts.

In the past, Mr. Daishan was so wise. Of the two sons he gave birth to, one only knew how to hide in the yard and drink with his wife, while the other was stupid in reading.

If the original trend continues, the decline of Ning and Rong Mansion will be a matter of time.

Unexpectedly, Jia Yu came out of nowhere and pulled Rongguo Mansion back into the quagmire.

On the surface, Jia Yu, as Uncle Dingyuan, is just Jia Zheng's son-in-law and has little relationship with the Rongguo Mansion.

But who would let him also come from one of the twelve houses of the Jia family in Jinling? Just because of this relationship, Jia Yu would not ignore Ning Rong's second house.

Everyone here is well-informed. The night before yesterday, Jia Yu led hundreds of soldiers from the Wucheng Military and Horse Division to ransack the homes of the two housekeepers of Ning Rong's second house, and obtained hundreds of thousands of taels of property. The news had already spread throughout Shenjing. of high-rise.

Everyone shook their heads secretly while being amused.

The dignified master of Ning Rong's second mansion actually allowed two sons born to a dowry girl to take over the power of the two mansions, and almost emptied the two mansions.

If Jia Yu hadn't taken action, everyone in Rongguo Mansion would have gone to the streets to beg for food in less than two years.

However, although the men in Rongguo Mansion were useless, they gave birth to good daughters.

Whether it is Jia Yuanchun or Jia Tanchun, I heard that they are both smart, capable, and stable in running their families.

It seems that the sky will never stop the Jia family.

Just when everyone was thinking, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and then a tall and handsome Jia Yu, wearing a unicorn robe, strode in.

"Dear uncles and brothers, today is the day for Yu to take concubines. It stands to reason that Yu just received the money from all the brothers a few days ago, so I shouldn't bother you anymore today.

But there is nothing I can do, because my little brother is too tight on money recently.

I have no choice but to shamelessly apologize to all my relatives and friends again, and hope that the rich will support me and the poor will support me personally.

No matter how much or how little money you have, it all means the same thing. As for if you all take concubines in the future, just send someone to inform Rongguo Mansion.

As for Uncle Dingyuan's Mansion, there is no need to notify you. After all, you are all respectable people, so you are too embarrassed to ask for two copies of the money, right? "

"Hahahahaha..."

Hearing what Jia Yu said was interesting, everyone burst into laughter, and the laughter even spread to the Rongqing Hall outside.

Seeing Jia Yu, who was still able to talk and laugh happily in the face of the top nobles in the sacred circle of Beijing, Niu Jizong, Liu Fang and others looked at each other, and at the same time, they felt that having a child was like Jia's three thoughts.

Shui Rong laughed so hard that he pointed at Jia Yu and said, "Brother Jia Shi, before, Xiao Wang only knew that the Brotherhood could train soldiers and fight. He didn't expect that he could be so funny on weekdays. No wonder he captured the hearts of Uncle Zheng Shi's two daughters."

"Eh……"

Jia Yu waved her hand, "Brother Shui Rong deserves the award, but Yu was just wrongly loved by His Majesty and won two battles based on luck. This matter is not worth mentioning.

However, what Yu is most grateful for is that his father-in-law betrothed two daughters to Yu. This is what makes Yu most grateful and proud. "

Jia Yu's words were not only self-effacing, but also elevated and thanked Jia Zheng, making him smile from ear to ear.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Jia Yu said seriously: "Brothers, the reason why Yu sent invitations to you today is to invite you to come over and have a glass of wine. I also have something to discuss with you. I wonder if you can do it." Would you like to listen to Yu chatter for a while?"

As soon as everyone heard this, they knew that today's matter was about to get down to business, and they all solemnly said: "I would like to hear the details!"

"Ok!"

Jia Yu nodded and suddenly shouted loudly, "Zhao Qiubai!"

"Here!"

Zhao Qiubai, who was holding a knife at his waist, came in in response, cupped his fists towards Jia Yu and said, "Please give me your orders, Sir!"

Jia Yu waved her hand: "Clear the place and let all irrelevant people leave!"

"Here!"
