"The great empress dowager wants life (immortality), the little emperor wants money, these grandfather and grandson want Baoyu's life..."
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) knows that there are still many people who want his life.
When he walked out of the hall, the ministers were all smiling at him. These smiles were really annoying, one part sincere, one part polite, and one part polite... Everyone was performing, this is officialdom.
How many people’s interests are involved in a Yangzhou?
Baoyu had a fierce look on his face, said nothing, didn't say hello to anyone, and got directly into the sedan chair.
If you don't talk, you won't know my trump cards.
Returning to Jia's Mansion first, I was scolded by the old lady as soon as I entered the hall.
"You also named your son Xiong Da Xiong Er. Are you a blind bear? You are still a poet and calligrapher. I am so ashamed for you!"
"Old lady, this is just a temporary nickname. I will reward you with the name when I come back."
"That's pretty much it... If you were born in the Northeast, let's call you Xiaodong or Xiaobei."
"Old lady, what a good name, it's memorable."
"What does it mean to commemorate? You went to Northeast China these few times... Okay, okay, you killed people..."
The old lady knew that the "First Lady" belonged to Daiyu, so she said this.
"this……"
"If you have anything to say, just don't say it. Old lady, I have never experienced anything? Come down and let me have a good talk with Baoyu."
The others quickly left the hall.
The old lady got up and looked around for herself, then asked in a low voice: "There is no sadness at all. Daiyu is not dead?"
"Old lady, Sister Lin has transformed into a maid...and is now my little maid..." In front of the old lady, you have to tell the truth.
"Okay, it's best to have someone by your side. You must have such a reliable person by your side... Being a real official is not as easy as you think, right? No one envied those officials who were awarded by the emperor in the past, because those officials looked like
Big, in fact, it is fake and empty. It does not touch the interests of others, and others will not pay attention to you... It is different now. There are too many people involved in the Yangzhou Prefecture..."
"The old lady knows everything."
"Don't try that officialdom thing on me... Come with me and I'll show you something."
The old lady tinkered with a pillar a few times, and the main wall of the hall slowly opened, revealing a secret room.
"There is such an institution? Why didn't I know about it?"
"There are still many things you don't know... If you want to become a century-old family, you have to have some secrets." The old lady said very proudly.
Entering the secret room is a very quaint room where ancestors' tablets are enshrined.
More than twenty black wood tablets are arranged neatly.
But those tablets only have surnames, not first names.
"The position of the Zhao family", "the position of the Qian family", "the position of the Sun family", "the position of the Li family"...
Zhao Qian, Sun Li, Zhou Wu and King Zheng...are they moving the surnames of hundreds of families here?
Just when Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) was confused, the old lady said: "These women all died for our Jia family. Baoyu, you have to remember that we can be dandy, but we can't forget our roots and these benefactors."
"My grandson will definitely not forget it, but I am a little confused."
"These women are the most outstanding talents trained by the Jia family... They are indispensable for the Jia family to be what it is today... Their names are all called Shadows."
"Ah? Shadow? Shadow killer? Isn't this the secret organization of the Queen Mother?"
"Yes. This is the Shadow Killer Organization. When the Queen Mother and I founded this organization, it was divided into two departments, A and B. She was in charge of Department A, responsible for killing people; I was in charge of Department B, responsible for collecting information."
"It turns out there is such a connection. No wonder our Jia family has gained power."
"Gains and losses also complement each other. Gains are sometimes losses; losses are sometimes gains."
"My grandson is stupid and doesn't understand."
"Dong Xiaowan is a shadow, a top shadow."
"Ah?" Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) was shocked all of a sudden.
Emperor Shunzhi’s most beloved woman, Concubine Dong E, was actually a member of the “shadow organization”?
Isn’t this too shocking?
"Dong Xiaowan, a genius agent in the shadow organization, was ordered to marry Shunzhi's younger brother, Prince Xiang, but she disobeyed the organization's strict orders and had a relationship with Fulin... and later became Concubine Dong E and Queen Xiaoxian. You all know these
.”
"Old lady, please tell me what I don't know."
"Dong Xiaowan's entry into the palace is a betrayal of the organization. The Queen Mother is furious, and of course I am not too happy. But Dong Xiaowan insists on going her own way, and I can't help it..."
"It seems that the old lady really likes you as a disciple."
"She dotes on her...so much that she has no rules. I went to ask the Queen Mother for mercy, but the Queen Mother agreed on the surface, but she was up to no good behind the scenes."
"The death of Concubine Dong E's son, as well as her so-called death from depression, are all related to the Empress Dowager?"
"It's all the fault of the Queen Mother. However, Concubine Dong E is not dead...she should be in Yangzhou. If the information shows that it is correct, Shunzhi is also in Yangzhou and lives with Dong Xiaowan." The old lady gave the answer directly.
.
This is even more shocking than the old lady saying that Concubine Dong E was a "shadow" just now!
Emperor Shunzhi no longer loved the country and loved the beauty.
It is said that Shunzhi became a monk. This is not a monk at all. It is simply a world-famous "elopement".
Prince An is so weird, could it have something to do with this?
"Old lady, do you mean that those Liu Rushi are closely related to Concubine Dong E?"
"Many of Liu Rushi's techniques and methods are what Shadow used to do back then. As for being able to charm men, Dong Xiaowan is best at the charm and sexual intercourse techniques."
My guaiguai uses both charm and sex skills, and even a man can't stand this.
No wonder the four former prefects fell.
"This is Concubine Dong Xun. I specially asked a Western painter to paint it." The old lady took out an oil painting from a small wooden box in the corner.
The woman in the oil painting has a small oval face, skin like snow, a quiet sweet smile, and a captivating gaze.
"This is the real Concubine Dong E, who looks half or six times like Daiyu."
"Of course there will be some similarities, because she and Jia Min are biological sisters."
"ah?"
"Jia Min sent it here. She and Dong Xiaowan are both the daughters of General E Shuo and the sister of General Fei Yanggu."
"Old lady, if you have anything more shocking, bring it out so that your grandson won't be shocked again."
"No more. You go to Yangzhou, give this to Dong Xiaowan, and say that I have forgiven her a long time ago. Let her serve Lord Shunzhi properly..." The old lady took off an East Pearl hairpin from her head and gave it to Baoyu (
Burning pebbles).
"Does the old lady have other more important things to say?"
"If there is any accident, I'm talking about just in case. If there is any accident, I will kill you without mercy!"
