Chapter 276 I won’t point this brother-in-law out to you anyway!
"Aunt Jialan and Aunt Tanlin are very strict. On the 5th and 6th day of the month, more than a dozen showgirls were abandoned." In the evening of that day, Lan Ruo came to report the situation of Huifang Hall.
That's right, the person in charge of Huifang Pavilion now is Grandma Jialan, followed by Grandma Tanlin, and then Lan Ruo.
Shu Jin nodded, "I'm afraid I have to buy another batch."
On the day of the palace election, it seemed that the elimination rate was extremely high, but among the Eight Banners of Manchu, Mongolia and Han, there were only forty or fifty people selected. At Yongzheng's age, he would not leave too many concubines for himself. He did not have the energy.
, and there are not many close relatives who are qualified for the emperor to grant marriage. Even if you count the likes of Fu Jin, Shu Fu Jin, etc., there are not so many beautiful girls. Therefore, they have to be eliminated again.
After entering the Huifang Pavilion, most of the beautiful girls who were eliminated were those whose etiquette rules were not strict enough - of course, Gege, who belongs to a wealthy family, has been taught by her grandmothers since she was a child, so she can never make any mistakes in etiquette.
of.
So, when it comes to choosing rules and etiquette, in the final analysis, the choice is family status.
Of course, there are also some beautiful girls who are smart, clever, or good at stuffing money, and they can also be retained.
Shu Jin played with the civet fan in his hand, "Among these beautiful girls, is there anyone who stands out?"
Lan Ruo said with a smile: "Needless to say, she is the Fucha family, the daughter of Li Rongbao, the general manager of Chahar. Needless to say, her family background is very good, her rules and etiquette are very good, and her appearance is also good."
Shu Jin naturally remembered, "What else?"
Lan Ruo whispered: "The Tong family does have a direct descendant of Princess. Although she is outstanding, she still has to give up her brand in the end."
He was once an emperor and a courtier, but now he has been implicated by Longkodo, and his life is not easy. Although the rich heritage of the family is there, it will not completely decline, but there is no need to think about the marriage or anything like that.
Shu Jin said "Huh", "That's a pity."
Lan Ruo added: "There is a girl from the branch of Niu Hulu's family. She is only of average quality, so I think the empress does not like her. But there is a woman named Wu Zhaku who is wearing a red flag. She is the daughter of Wushitu, the second-rank deputy capital official.
, it looks really good.”
Shu Jin was most interested in beauties, so he asked with a smile: "How is it not vulgar?" - Manchuria lowered the five flags, it seemed to have some impression...
Lan Ruo smiled and said: "In terms of appearance, he is considered to be the best in Huifang Hall. The important thing is that he is not the kind of weak Liu Fufeng. He looks upright and generous. It's a pity that he does not have a rich family name..."
Lan Ruo sighed, "Of course the Fucha family is better." - Her uncle is Ma Qi!
Stealing Hongli's wife? Shu Jin felt a little weird.
Lan Ruohu whispered in a low voice: "I see, Grandma Tanlin takes great care of the Fucha family."
Oh? Although this Aunt Tanlin is from the royal family, she took care of the Niu Hulu family for a period of time when she was staying in the mansion in the early years... I'm afraid that in all likelihood, she has now become a bridge between the Fucha family and Concubine Xi.
Already.
Lan Ruo listened and said, "I also discovered that Sister Tanlin has some contacts with Guifu from Yinghui Hall."
Shu Jin raised his eyebrows: Sure enough.
This Concubine Xi's hands were quite long, and she was able to bribe the people in front of her.
However, there are only a few nuns in charge of Huifang Hall. If you don’t bribe Tan Lin, how can you bribe Aunt Jialan? Or is it her Lan Ruo?
"Mother Tan Lin is not young anymore..." Take the opportunity to make a fortune, or retire.
"Your Majesty, why don't I, this slave, also look for opportunities to get in touch with the Fucha family?" Lan Ruo couldn't help but said.
Shu Jin shook his head, "No need, just treat her as normal."
The real decision-maker in Huifang Pavilion is Aunt Jialan. How can these little things below escape the emperor's eyes? This draft is no better than before.
Lan Ruo was a little worried: "If the Fucha family is trapped by Concubine Xi and her son..."
Shu Jin said: "In the final analysis, the prince's marriage has to be decided by the emperor."
Lan Ruo was startled, "Does your Majesty have a chance of winning in your heart?"
Shu Jin couldn't help but laugh. How could she have any chance of winning the marriage? It's just that this Fucha family was Hongli's wife in her previous life. Yongzheng must not have such a bad taste in marrying his sister-in-law to his brother-in-law.
"The Emperor is testing me. At this time, we can't do anything unnecessary." Shu Jin could only say seriously.
Lan Ruo sighed helplessly, "The empress holds her body upright, but Concubine Xi keeps making little moves..."
Shu Jin said calmly: "Let her go. At this time, the more you do, the more mistakes you make."
Lan Ruo thought thoughtfully, "Actually, the marriage is not about the Fucha family." How can she, a little girl, have the final say? Even the Fucha family may not have the final say. In the final analysis, it still depends on the Sacred Heart.
...The noble concubine is fighting for the Sacred Heart now!
Lan Ruo nodded, "I understand what I mean, but I am too passive in this way."
Shu Jin was very calm. The worst outcome was that Hongli married the Fucha family as in history.
But did Hongli succeed to the throne because of his wife?
"The Fucha family can only add icing on the cake, but cannot influence the overall situation." Shu Jin said seriously.
Lan Ruo understands what her mother-in-law means. She has become more and more stable in recent years. Concubine Xi, on the other hand, only has contacts with the Fucha family. Even the undecided Fucha Gege secretly contacts her. If the emperor finds out,
, must not be happy.
Lan Ruo said: "If Grandma Tanlin has discovered it, that's all. If she hasn't discovered it, I will give her a proper reminder." Naturally, the emperor should know about the good deeds done by Concubine Xi.
Shu Jin smiled, my opponent!
Lan Ruo left a list of details of the show girl and hurried back to Huifang Hall to run errands.
At dusk, Shu Jin handed the list to Hong Zhou.
Needless to say, Hong Zhou felt energetic for a moment, but after seeing it, he couldn't help but feel a little wilted, "Among these, only the Fucha family is better..."
Yes, among this year's show girls, this one is the only one with good looks and good family background.
Shu Jin said calmly: "Yes, that's why Concubine Xi has been eyeing her since early in the morning."
Hearing this, Hong Zhou's face darkened a little, "Mother, this Fucha family is Ma Qi's niece! If the fourth brother is asked to marry -"
Shu Jin patted Hong Zhou on the shoulder, "Whether you can succeed or not depends not on your wife's clan."
Hong Zhou said sullenly: "Having said that, even the third brother's Fujin is the daughter of the minister, Dong E. His son can't be inferior to the third brother, right?"
Shu Jin knocked on his forehead with some displeasure: "Don't just focus on the wealthy family! When marrying someone, it's not just the Fucha family that has outstanding quality among the beautiful girls this year."
Hong Zhou then had the patience to look at the beautiful girls below, but he still couldn't help but sigh, "It's still a little bit worse after all..."
Shu Jin said quietly: "Hong Zhou, you need to be prepared for this marriage."
Hong Zhou was slightly stunned, "Is it possible that Khan Ama wants to point out the Fucha clan to Fourth Brother?"
Anyway, I won’t point you to this brother-in-law!
Shu Jin sighed: "Don't worry, you will suffer a little loss here. Your Khan and Ama will definitely compensate you later." - After all, Hong Zhou today is not the Hong Zhou in history. As a noble concubine, she has been in charge of the Sixth Palace for so many years, and she has worked hard.
It's not a small task. If the Fucha family proposed marriage to Hongli, Yongzheng would have to show some respect for others, right?
Now Yongzheng did not care about Hongli. If the marriage matter was given to him, other things would have to be put aside.
