The title of Minister of Fengzao Palace still hangs on the front. I don’t know if it still belongs to the female official or the concubine of the harem?
The only difference from the original work is that there is no "virtuous concubine", just an ordinary concubine, the kind without a name.
Mrs. Wang was overjoyed to get what she wanted. After seeing off the father-in-law who delivered the order, she was so proud and proud that even the old lady who was equally happy couldn't help but look displeased.
The news spread like the wind throughout Rong Mansion, and then to Ning Mansion. Suddenly, both houses were in a state of excitement and excitement.
After receiving the news, Jia Rong, Qin Keqing and his wife, and even Youshi, who took care of Jia Zhen who was seriously injured, came to congratulate her.
Wang Xifeng was very active at this time. She was busy and smiling, and acted as if she was following the lead of her aunt, Mrs. Wang. She stole the show.
Although Dafang and his party were equally happy, they could see that Mrs. Wang and Mr. Zheng suddenly started to tremble and became the focus of everyone's attention, so they couldn't help but feel depressed and left early.
"Why are you so proud? Yuanchun came to power, didn't he rely on the opportunity of Yong'an County Lord (Qin Keqing)?"
Although Mrs. Xing no longer cared much about the affairs in the mansion, she found it extremely distasteful to see Mrs. Wang being arrogant and proud. She couldn't help but muttered on the way back to the general's mansion.
"Shut up, don't say such harsh words again, be careful of trouble coming from your mouth!"
The eldest master angrily reprimanded: "Besides, Concubine Yuanchun has nothing to do with our eldest son..."
"I'm afraid it's not a good thing!"
Jia Cong suddenly answered, making the elder roll his eyes.
"You kid, don't talk nonsense. Why isn't it a good thing that the Rongguo Mansion is unified?"
If Jia Cong's ability hadn't been recognized in recent years, the elder would have the urge to take action now. Who are they? They can't see Rong Mansion doing well, right?
"Yes, third brother, having a queen in the palace is a good thing for us!"
Lian Er echoed from the side: "No matter what happens in the future, if someone wants to target us and the house, we have to weigh the consequences!"
Of course, there is something left unsaid, that is, with the harem empress at his back, his future promotion will be smooth sailing.
"I'm afraid the one who will be most affected is you, Brother Lian!"
Jia Cong glanced sideways at this guy and said amusedly: "Maybe Brother Lian will become the target of many court officials and even the censor. I just don't know if Brother Lian can handle it!"
These words shocked everyone present.
The eldest man and Mrs. Xing looked at each other in confusion, while Lian Er's face changed drastically, his voice trembled a little, and he stammered: "No, it can't be!"
hehe……
When they returned to the main hall of the General's Mansion, neither the eldest master, nor Mrs. Xing, nor Lian Er had any intention of leaving. They wanted to hear Jia Cong speak clearly, otherwise there was no need to expect to sleep tonight.
Jia Cong first drove away the serving maids, and even threatened that if anyone dared to sneak up and eavesdrop, they would be sent directly to the mine, and the whole family was reunited.
These words frightened all the thoughtful maids. No matter what they thought in their hearts, they waved their hands to express their fear.
After there were only a few people in the room, Jia Cong found a chair and sat down. He smiled bitterly and said what was in his heart: "I only feel the intense malice today!"
After saying that, he glanced at the people in the big room with different expressions, changed the subject and said: "Let's wait for the first and second sister-in-law first. I will only say this once, and I won't admit it when I leave the house. I better let everyone understand.
!”
"Lao San, is it serious?"
The elder frowned and said in a deep voice: "If it is not serious, there is no need to call the second wife of the chain to come over. I think she is very happy waiting on the other side of the second room!"
These words made Mr. Lian Er blush, and he was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to speak.
Speaking of which, his wife's behavior was indeed a bit too snobbish.
"Of course it's serious!"
Jia Cong laughed and said: "We are all being targeted with evil intentions today, how can it not be serious?"
"Then you can still laugh?"
"If you don't laugh, why are you crying?"
Jia Cong spread his hands and said leisurely: "It's also interesting nowadays. Against a family like ours, they resort to such unflattering methods!"
I really couldn't tell whether his words were derogatory or complimentary, but at this time, the minds of the elder master and others were gradually sinking to the bottom.
Being targeted with evil intentions today, can there be a good ending?
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became solemn. No one was in the mood to speak. They were all thinking about their own concerns.
"Yo, what's going on?"
When Wang Xifeng hurried over, she felt that the atmosphere was not right when she entered the door. She smiled and said: "Today is the happy day of Yuanchun's concubine..."
What he said is to remind everyone present to pay attention. If the second wife finds out, who knows how many troubles will be caused?
She thought that the big family was jealous of Yuanchun's concubine, so everyone looked ugly, and she couldn't help but feel full of disdain in her heart.
"You'd better sit down and listen to the third brother!"
How could Lian Er fail to hear the implication of Wang Xifeng's words? He waved angrily and signaled Wang Xifeng to sit down quickly.
Wang Xifeng was a little confused now. She thought that she might have made a mistake. She was also a little embarrassed for a moment. She didn't say anything nice. She saluted the eldest man and Mrs. Xing and sat down.
"Third brother, it's time to talk!"
Lian Er said impatiently: "How can you tell that the concubine in Yuanchun is full of malicious intentions?"
Wang Xifeng was shocked when she heard this, and wanted to laugh a few words, but the atmosphere in the room was weird, so she subconsciously looked at Jia Cong, who was tall and strong and did not look like a boy.
This kid is growing up too fast. Isn’t he likely to be nearly 10 feet tall when he becomes an adult?
"Previously, by taking the opportunity to attend Uncle Chengyi's funeral, the Xungui Group teamed up to show off their muscles. At this time, which Xungui Group will you have a favorable impression of?"
Jia Cong was not polite and spoke quite directly. He glanced at the elder and Lian Er, and the father and son subconsciously turned their heads to dodge.
joke!
Even if it were them, they would not have a good impression of the Xungui Group in a short period of time, let alone a good impression.
Wang Xifeng was extremely shocked and thought there was something wrong with her ears.
Did she hear it right? The majestic funeral that caused a sensation in the capital was the work of the Beijing Xungui Group to show off its muscles to the present day?
Although I couldn't believe it in my heart, I subconsciously felt that it was probably true. Otherwise, how could the funeral of a mere Uncle Chengyi cause such a big fuss?
Subconsciously, he looked at Lian Er beside him. The heavy look on his face said it all.
Okay, how dare you hide such a big thing from her...
"The matter of Brother Rong's daughter-in-law may be a big deal in our eyes, but it's nothing in today's eyes!"
Ignoring everyone's panic, Jia Cong continued: "This is not what I said. The news revealed by the Prince of Chu said that after seeing the proposal from the Zongren Mansion, he agreed to grant the title of daughter-in-law without thinking at all.
For the county leader!"
The eldest master, Lian Er, Mrs. Xing and Wang Xifeng were suddenly shocked. It turned out that Rong's daughter-in-law's position as county head was so worthless in today's eyes.
"Even Brother Rong's daughter-in-law is in this situation. Sister Yuanchun in the palace just reported the situation in advance and showed her face in front of the present. Even if the reward is only one noble person at most, the concubine's position is already considered a great compliment!"
After breaking down the situation inside and explaining it clearly, the situation becomes quite clear.
Jia Cong grinned lightly and asked: "Now that I have been granted the title of concubine, I think it is like putting Sister Yuanchun on the fire!"
"Perhaps, you are particularly fond of Yuanchun today?"
The elder man was covered in cold sweat, and he gave excuses that he didn't even believe. He could only try his best to cheer himself up in his heart.
"hehe……"
Jia Cong smiled lightly and said leisurely: "Sister Yuanchun has been working as a female historian in the Queen's Palace for many years, so there will be no shortage of opportunities to meet today!"
"Then tell me, what is going on?"
The eldest man said a little irritably: "You can't. Now do you think our Ningrong Second Mansion is an eyesore?"
"It's really possible!"
Jia Cong nodded solemnly, causing the elder's face to turn green and white.
The people like Lian Er and others next to him were heartbroken and their faces turned pale.
In the age of imperial power, it makes me feel chilly to think about what it would be like to be stared at and disliked by today.
"Brother Cong, are you being too alarmist?"
Wang Xifeng didn't believe it, and sneered: "Our government hasn't done anything extraordinary, so why should we deliberately target it now?"
"Then second sister-in-law, tell me, Yuanchun was included in the harem for the first time. His family background can only be considered to be above average, she is not an unparalleled beauty, and she has no heirs. How can she surpass the concubines who have given birth to princes and princesses in one go?"
Jia Cong was not angry, but asked quietly: "What should we do if those princes and princesses are influenced by their biological mothers and hate our Rongguo Mansion?"
this……
Wang Xifeng was dumbfounded for a moment, how should she answer?
"This is called 'virtue does not match the position'. If you don't have the same strength as the concubine, it is definitely not a good thing!"
Jia Cong said leisurely: "As for why we are deliberately targeting them now, the answer is actually very simple. This time the Beijing Xungui Group's collective muscle-flexing initiative, both Ning and Rong Mansion were involved!"
After saying this, he paused and said with a smile: "I want to vent my anger now. It just so happens that the name of Ning Rong's Second Mansion is famous enough. The Eight Dukes of the Founding Kingdom are ranked first and second, but their current strength is at a low point.
The state is just a soft persimmon to pinch!"
"It's all just your guess!"
Wang Xifeng's face looked equally ugly at this time, and she retorted bravely: "Even I know that if you want to deal with Ning Rong's second house now, you don't have to spend so much energy, right?"
"The palace is under the control of the emperor, and the Ningrong Palace is protected by the Xungui Group!"
Jia Cong spoke quite directly, casually saying: "Nowadays, of course we cannot act recklessly. The best thing is to use some means to completely separate us from the Xungui Group first, and then wait for Ning Rong's second house to make mistakes. As long as we have enough handles, we can strike with one blow.
It's easy to kill him, it's a warning to the monkeys and there won't be much trouble in the future, no matter how you look at it, it's a good choice!"
The next chapter will be around two o'clock. I can't wait to read it tomorrow.
