Chapter 170 Jia Yuanchun Visits Her Parents
Chapter 170 Jia Yuanchun Visits Her Parents
The visit of Concubine Xian De to her parents was on a grand scale.
The team leading the street cleaning had already reached Rongning Street, while the team carrying the boxes at the rear had not yet left the palace gate.
Ever since the fall of the three princes, everyone in the world knew that as long as she gave birth to a son, she would be destined to be the future empress dowager.
Countless people tried to curry favor with him, but he didn't even have a chance to say a word.
I had no choice but to follow the Jia family's route and curry favor with them.
This is also the reason why the Jia family was at its peak at this time, and even the servants dared to call him "Master" when they went out.
The jealous people secretly complained that she would give birth to a daughter, just to see how unlucky she would be then!
If the baby is really a daughter, no matter how glorious she is now, she will be very miserable in the future.
Jia Yuanchun herself was also very worried.
But she couldn't show it, because she had already reached this position and could only move forward and had no way back.
The grand procession arrived at Rongning Street. Looking at the streets filled with colored glass lamps that looked like stars in the sky, and looking at the streets that were almost blocked by colorful silks, Jia Yuanchun's heart suddenly tightened.
When passing by Ningguo Mansion, looking at the tightly closed door, Concubine Xian De couldn't help but think of that almost crazy month.
"I don't know if he will come to see me." Jia Yuanchun stroked her bulging belly, her cheeks flushed, as if she remembered some past cramps.
The male members of the Jia family were waiting at the street corner and followed them all the way to the gate of the mansion.
Grandmother Jia and her female relatives were waiting outside the door. When they saw the huge procession approaching, they knelt down and saluted.
They were not kneeling for Jia Yuanchun, but for the imperial authority~~~
When the ceremony was over, eunuchs came forward and helped everyone to stand up.
Jia Yuanchun would not show up at this time. She sat on the imperial sedan chair and was carried into the mansion by eunuchs.
When they arrived at the courtyard where she had lived before entering the palace, the eunuchs retreated one after another, and Concubine Zhaorong and Concubine Cai helped Jia Yuanchun get off the imperial carriage.
Today is the Lantern Festival. The yard is filled with colorful lanterns and silk gauze hangings, which are very beautiful.
Looking around, Jia Yuanchun felt emotional and recalled her childhood.
After reminiscing for a while, she went into the house, changed out of her heavy and complicated palace dress, put on simpler clothes, and then left the garden.
At this time, incense was burning in all the gardens of the Jia family, and countless lit lanterns illuminated the entire Jia Mansion.
The music of the band, which was specially maintained at great expense, was played constantly.
In this era, this is enormous wealth.
Looking at the joyous Jia family, Jia Yuanchun couldn't help but say, "That's too much."
It was indeed too much, but the Jia family didn't care at all.
On the one hand, they were immersed in the prominence of their family, and on the other hand, these things were all spent on money from the national treasury and they did not have to pay out of their own pockets.
Jia Yuanchun had no choice but to suppress her frustration and tour the Grand View Garden.
"Every scene here has a name inscribed by Baoyu."
Mrs. Wang took the opportunity to say with a smile, "Although your brother likes to play, he is quite capable. Can you please ask Your Majesty to find a future for him?"
"Please ask His Majesty?" Jia Yuanchun smiled bitterly, thinking, 'I haven't seen His Majesty for several months. It's better to ask Chen Ran than to ask His Majesty.'
"Baoyu is not young anymore." Mrs. Wang hadn't finished her request yet. "May I ask Your Majesty to find a noble lady from among the royal relatives to marry?"
Jia Yuanchun was speechless. Such matters should be sought from the Empress Dowager. How could the Emperor possibly interfere?
"Your uncle has suffered an unexpected disaster." The topic continued, "He has been sitting at home all day sighing. He is loyal to His Majesty. Why don't you talk to His Majesty and ask him to reinstate your uncle?"
Jia Yuanchun couldn't help herself and simply replied, "I haven't seen the emperor's face for a long time."
After saying that, he no longer had the heart to wander around any longer and went straight to the palace.
Only Mrs. Wang was left standing there dumbfounded.
A banquet was held in the palace. Jia Yuanchun sat on a high platform, with the Jia family members sitting on both sides.
There was no gossiping or small talk; the numerous eunuchs and palace maids were all watching intently.
All the actions were carried out in a ritualistic manner, all the conversations were about the emperor and his subjects, and Jia Yuanchun felt like she was chewing wax during the meal.
She had no intention of continuing and ate some food casually to show that she was tired and wanted to rest for a while.
According to the rules, concubines were not allowed to spend the night outside the palace, so they had to return to the palace before midnight.
The period between the end of the dinner and the departure for the palace was the best time for Concubine Xian De to communicate with the Jia family.
The pain of missing someone and the love of parents should have been relieved at this time.
Unfortunately, Jia Yuanchun was too disappointed. She wanted to take a rest first, and before going back, she would give a few more instructions, saying that one should not disobey the law, and that being too extravagant and ostentatious was not a good thing.
The core of the Grand View Garden is Jia Yuanchun's palace.
Although she would not sleep here even for one night, this palace was still the best place in the entire Grand View Garden.
Baoqin closed the door and left with the palace maids. Jia Yuanchun lay on her side on the bed, stroking her belly with one hand and resting her face with the other hand.
Pregnant women are sleepy and fall into a deep sleep without realizing it.
In her sleep, she dreamed of Chen Ran again.
He pounced on me with a wicked smile and tormented me in all kinds of ways.
Even though Jia Yuanchun had read various popular science picture books in the palace and at home, she had never imagined that there were so many things in the world.
Whenever she dreamed of Chen Ran, she would feel hot and unbearable.
"How annoying~" The feeling in front of her became stronger and stronger, and Jia Yuanchun in her dream couldn't help but reach out to push.
Suddenly, she grabbed a pair of big hands. In an instant, Jia Yuanchun woke up from her dream.
I subconsciously opened my mouth to scream, but the next moment I saw clearly the face of the person lying opposite me.
That face with a smirk was so familiar, as if it were still in a dream.
"Really you?!"
Jia Yuanchun was so surprised that she reached out her trembling hand and gently stroked the face of the man opposite her.
Feeling the real touch, tears fell.
They haven't seen each other for several months, and she is missing him so much that she is almost falling ill.
"Your Majesty, how are you~"
Chen Ran said with a smile, "Do you want me to serve you until you go to bed?"
"Hmph." Jia Yuanchun said with a little girl's face, "Now that I'm pregnant, how are you going to serve me?"
"My lady." Chen Ran said swiftly, "Have you forgotten that besides the place where you give birth, there are other places where you can serve~~~"
Jia Yuanchun had many words of love she wanted to express to Chen Ran, but in the end she was blocked from saying it.
Everyone in the Jia family was waiting outside the palace, waiting to be summoned by Concubine Xian De after resting.
They had many things they wanted to say to Concubine Xian De and many things they wanted her to do.
But what puzzled everyone was that they waited from the hour of You to the beginning of the hour of Hai, but never received a summons from the Goddess.
It was the Lantern Festival now, and the night was freezing cold with a raging wind. The Jia family was shaking with fear and were extremely depressed.
Baoqin finally came out, but unfortunately she said, "It's getting late. Your Majesty is tired and disappeared. Let's go back to the palace."
The Jia family members looked at each other in confusion, what did this mean?
What's the point of visiting relatives if you don't see them?
"Hold the harp." In desperation, Grandmother Jia stepped forward and said, "We have something important to discuss with the queen. Can you please let her know?"
The benefits that the Jia family wanted have not yet been promised by Concubine Xian De, so how could they let her leave like this?
Baoqin is Jia Yuanchun's personal maid and also a member of the Jia family.
If he were at the Jia family, he would not dare to act rashly in front of Lady Jia and would have to do whatever she told him to do.
But now it’s different. She is already a lady-in-waiting in the palace, and Jia Yuanchun is her future support. Naturally, she will not disturb the empress for the sake of the Jia family.
"The queen said so." Baoqin responded calmly, "I am tired and I will not see anyone. I will return to the palace now."
After saying that, he turned around and left without saying anything else.
"What the hell~" Jia She, who was full of anger, couldn't help but yell, "She is just a dog raised by my Jia family, and you dare to control her. When I see the queen, I will definitely ask her to come to my courtyard and treat her well~"
Everyone rolled their eyes, Jia She was really shameless.
Jia Yuanchun left anyway, without even seeing the Jia family again.
He got on the imperial carriage directly, said a few words of farewell and left.
There's no way. The few marks on my pretty face make it inconvenient to see people.
When she returned to the palace, before she could remove her makeup and rest, the emperor came over.
Jia Yuanchun was horrified, but there was no time to hide her face, so she could only lower her head and bow, not daring to face him.
The emperor's intention of coming to see her was very simple, which was to give her a heads-up in advance so that she would be mentally prepared for the affairs of the Jia family.
After talking for a while, he saw Jia Yuanchun kept her head down, and he was unhappy. "Raise your head."
Jia Yuanchun's delicate body trembled slightly. She had no choice but to look up and let the emperor see the marks on her pretty face.
The emperor was silent.
After a while, he said in a deep voice, "Did Chen Ran go to look for you?"
Jia Yuanchun trembled and responded, "Yes."
"Hey." The emperor didn't know what kind of mood he was in. After a lot of thoughts, he left a sentence "He is a passionate guy" and left.
Originally, the emperor planned to keep the son and leave the mother, and he did not want to keep either the Jia family or Jia Yuanchun.
This was to follow the example of Emperor Wu of Han and clear obstacles for future emperors.
As for Chen Ran, he was used as an assistant to Huo Guang.
The emperor was not worried that Chen Ran would do what Huo Guang did and find Liu Bingyi to seize the throne, because that was his son!
However, Chen Ran showed his liking for Jia Yuanchun, which forced the emperor to consider whether to keep Jia Yuanchun.
"Forget it. A mere woman without the support of her family, what kind of trouble can she cause in front of a capable person like Chen Ran?"
The emperor rubbed his forehead and said, "But the Jia family must be completely wiped out."
The virtuous concubine did not leave any promises, which made the Jia family very dissatisfied.
Perhaps the only one who was happy was Jia Baoyu, the handsome man with a big face.
He had already been promised that he could move into the magnificent Grand View Garden.
When they were happily preparing for the move, someone came from the palace to inform them that the place where Concubine Xian De was visiting her parents would be sealed off and no outsiders were allowed to enter.
The expression on Dabao's face suddenly fell.
"Why?! This is my home!"
No one paid attention to his complaints and dissatisfaction because the court's attitude gradually began to turn against the Jia family.
An imperial censor filed an impeachment complaint, accusing the Jia family of embezzling money from the national treasury!
