Chapter 2797 Extra - Nine Kings Seize the Crown Prince (5)
"Grandma, how could the imperial concubine wipe her face to find the imperial concubine? Aren't you deliberately trying to embarrass the imperial concubine?"
Although Xiangling was a little dazed, she also knew that Baoqin was the last person who wanted to lose face in front of the other concubines.
Concubine Miao, Concubine Yun, Concubine Ying, Concubine Xi, Concubine Xiu and Concubine Tan, these were the most familiar people in the Jia family in the past, and they became the ones Baoqin cared about the most.
On the contrary, she didn't care so much about the other people, such as Li Min, Li Qi and the Zhen sisters, and even had a closer relationship with them.
I don’t know where the conflict between this imperial concubine and the other empresses from the Jia family came from. All in all, they just didn’t get along.
Baochai sighed softly.
Of course she knew Bao Qin's temperament and was not willing to bow down in front of other people.
But now that something like this has happened, you can't ask the emperor, right? I'm afraid Baoqin will feel even more uncomfortable.
Xue Biao went to Nanyang, and now he spends most of his time in Guangzhou and Ningbo. He can only stay in the capital for at most one month a year, which is considered a long time.
And the more this happens, the more Xue Biao has to avoid suspicion.
The Xue family's business is getting bigger and bigger, and it has become one of the so-called plutocrats in Dahua. This is pure nonsense, but it can't stand the gossip of the people. Plus, Bao Qin and I are the East Palace.
One of the imperial concubines is a noble concubine, and the son she gave birth to is a strong contender for the crown prince's position, which is even more dazzling.
Xue Biao's success in business has also attracted many opponents in the business field and even some people with ulterior motives who hide deeper to criticize for various reasons.
The Metropolitan Procuratorate received many reports, most of which were based on rumors, but even so, Xue Biao was very wary.
The tree is big and attracts the wind, but Zhijie is unsatisfactory and often causes trouble, leaving himself and Baoqin helpless and not knowing how to deal with it.
No matter what, I'm afraid there are still people who will take advantage of the topic and make the story more and more mysterious, making it even more difficult to deal with later; no matter who comes forward, it will be a problem, and someone may take the opportunity to attack and point the finger at the Xue family.
It even involved the kings of Chu and Wei.
Baochai knew that he had to come forward in the end, so he couldn't just ignore it, right?
But how to come forward and who to find are all problems.
Of course she couldn't go to Tanchun, but maybe someone else could go to Jia Huan.
"Let's go and bring a message to Mr. Bao of Zongren Mansion. Just tell him what I said and ask him to talk to Brother Huan. Don't bother the palace and the emperor with such trivial matters, causing everyone to worry.
It’s ugly.”
After thinking for a long time, Baochai came up with this idea.
His brother can also come forward, but the Xue family's matter is more solid, so it is most appropriate to let Baoyu come forward for a while.
Now Baoyu is the right Zongzheng of the clan's mansion, which is considered a noble and idle position, and is most suitable for Baoyu's temperament. Therefore, Baoyu has been hanging around in the clan's mansion for twenty years and has become a truly wealthy idler.
Being pampered inside, my temperament suddenly changed a lot from before and became more transparent.
The three sisters of the Jia family are all concubines in the palace, plus Baochai, Daiyu and Baoyu are all cousins, so he is well placed in the clan mansion.
After all these years, Baoyu is no longer tangled, but has a good relationship with all the princes in the palace. Everyone also thinks that his uncle has no thoughts, so he was very close to Baoyu when he was a child.
Hearing Baochai's arrangement, Xiangling was stunned and said, "If you tell me this, how about you bring a message to the uncle to talk to Mr. Bao? This will help avoid suspicion."
"You are enlightened. It's okay, you can go and talk to the uncle." Baochai thought the same and asked his brother to tell Baoyu that they were already familiar with each other and it was just right.
As for whether Huan Laosan would buy into his elder brother's fault, Baochai didn't think it was a problem.
Huan Laosan is no longer the extreme young man who liked to be hot-blooded. Decades of career development have made him mature, otherwise Ziying would not have placed him in the key position of Zuo Du Yushi of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
When Xue Pan came to visit, Jia Baoyu was a little surprised.
Although the two of them interacted quite a lot in private, it was still a bit rare for Xue Pan to come directly to the clan's mansion.
"Wenlong, why are you so anxious?" Baoyu ordered someone to make tea, then sent the others down, leaving only two people.
The job in Zongren Mansion is actually very suitable for him.
He is You Zongzheng, and there is Zuo Zongzheng above him, who is the one who usually does real work. He, You Zongzheng, is even more unusual because of his special relationship with the palace, and only takes action at critical moments.
In the east and west palaces, there are three more concubines surnamed Jia and Concubine Yun, who are either his cousins, cousins, or biological sisters.
There are rumors in the outside world that the reason why the Jia family is now more glorious than the previous dynasty is because they made a bet on the current emperor and married all the suitable daughters in the family to the emperor. It can be said that as long as the prince and prince are not married to the Shen family in the middle palace,
If you leave, then you basically can't escape and have something to do with the Jia family.
Because of this, Baoyu has been particularly nourished and comfortable in the clan's mansion in the past few years.
All those things in the past have long been buried deep in Baoyu's heart. Whether it's Sister Bao or Sister Yu, they have become the most beautiful memories.
After he married the Niu family, although the Niu family was domineering, she never had any children, so she had no choice but to agree to Baoyu taking a concubine. However, Baoyu didn't want to take a concubine anymore, so she was forced by her family to take a concubine with two rooms.
But still only gave birth to two daughters.
In the end, Xiren and Sheyue came back, and Sheyue gave birth to a son, which became the only seedling in the Jia family.
After having a son, the Jia family didn't care much about Baoyu. Baoyu was pure-hearted and had few desires. He felt that he had accomplished his mission, so he basically stayed away from women and devoted himself to practicing Taoism. Even in this sect's public house, he
He was also dressed as a Taoist and didn't care.
Xue Pan explained his purpose, and Baoyu also frowned: "Why is this child Zhijie so dissolute? Isn't this intentional to tarnish the emperor's face? And where can I put Concubine Qin's face?"
"If you ask me, this is also the fault of the Emperor." Xue Pan is still the same carefree and big-mouthed person who speaks out whatever he wants. He is even more unscrupulous in front of Baoyu. They are both uncles of the country. After so many years, they also know Feng Ziying thoroughly.
There's nothing to hide.
"Why did Wenlong say that?" Baoyu was surprised.
"The emperor just conferred a group of princes and princes last month. You should know that, right?"
, King Chen, King Zheng, and King Yue have all been promoted to princes. Isn’t this a bit too much? That’s fine, why can’t even the county king give Zhijie a child?”
The King of Song is the son of Xing Xiuyan, the King of Shu is the son of Li Min, the King of Chen is the son of Qingwen, the King of Zheng is the son of Yuanyang, and the King of Yue is the son of Ping'er.
