dream of red mansion

Wang Ziteng saw that Jia Qing looked modest, and he was not impatient or mad about his persuasion, so he nodded secretly, relieved a lot.

Now the Jia family and the Wang family can be said to be the two most closely related, and they are also the two most powerful in Beijing.

He didn't want to see Jia Qing go astray.

But when they are in their position, they can only talk to the point, and they can't say much.Now that Jia Qing understood it himself, he skipped over this again and talked about the current situation:

"However, we should not be careless. Although there is not much movement in Niwang now, he was the prince several decades ago, and his mother was the first queen of the Supreme Emperor. He is one of the most prestigious princes in the clan.

His reliance must not be limited to the soldiers of the northern and southern camps who were deceived by him outside the city.

I have been observing their actions for the past few days. They are manufacturing siege equipment outside the city, and they are probably preparing to attack the city as soon as the reinforcements arrive.

We should also think about how to deal with it next. "

Jia Qingdao: "Now His Majesty's confidant, General Wei Lize, is reorganizing the Imperial Army, and Zhao Donglai is also recruiting the Jinyi Army. These days, there are some achievements. There are still at least [-] regular troops. Recruit some new soldiers and conscript some yamen servants. , government soldiers, a reserve army of [-] to [-], plus the Beijing camp, is enough to defend the city."

Wang Ziteng nodded.

It is enough for so many people to defend the city.The capital city is also a strong city, as long as there is no chaos inside, it will be difficult for the opponent to break through the city.

Thinking of this, Wang Ziteng suddenly admired Emperor Zhengqing.

With a Tianzi sword in Jia Qing's hands, no one in Beijing would dare to hold back the Beijing camp and the city army.

It can be described as great.

After talking with Jia Qing, Wang Ziteng went down the city wall to inspect the city defenses. Jia Qing still stood at the top of the city, looking at the camp where Prince Kang was.

Are you waiting for reinforcements?

Ha ha.

Jia Qing had a hunch that reinforcements from the imperial court might also be arriving.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In front of the mourning hall of the Mei family, Bao Qin suddenly lifted her hijab and stared blankly at the scene in front of her.

On the carved beams, red and white shine.

Under the eaves, the characters Xi and Dian coexist.

In the depths of the main room, a coffin was placed there dazzlingly.

Bao Qin is not an ignorant girl, she immediately saw that this was a ghost marriage.

"What does it mean?"

Baoqin asked in a murmur.

A woman came out from inside, she didn't care about Bao Qin's move to lift her hijab ahead of time.

What a beautiful little girl!

Even though the woman is suffering the pain of losing her son, she can't help but be attracted by Bao Qin's beautiful and lovely appearance.

In the past, I only heard that the girl from the Xue family had a good birth, but I never met her formally.

Originally, this marriage was for the sake of their friendship with the second master of the Xue family, and for the second master of the Xue family and the Ministry of Internal Affairs to have something to say.

Later they heard that the second master of the Xue family had died, and they felt remorse.

They are noble and famous, and they want to be "useful" when they marry a daughter-in-law.Before Xue's father was around, at least the Xue family was still useful.

Now that he is dead, there is only a sick woman and a pair of weak children left. How can they be worthy of their family, Mo Feng?

In particular, when Mo Feng became a scholar at the age of 14, he was awarded Juren, and he could be the next Hanlin of the Mei family.It is even more impossible for them to let him marry a rootless and unlucky daughter, which will not help him in his future career...

But directly destroying relatives is not good for reputation, besides, the big family of Xue's family still lives in Jia's family, and they have close contacts, and they are not common people who can be rubbed by others, so they are going to delay first, anyway, the man's family will not worry. marry.

Of course, this is mainly what the master meant.

Now that the matter is at this point, she feels that if Feng'er married this girl before, she would not be considered tarnished.

Unfortunately, after all...

Madam wiped her tears, and said to Baoqin: "Your name is Baoqin, right? What a poor child. Originally, I discussed with your uncle's mansion, and I will come to the door in person after our family Feng'er is admitted to the university, and we will marry you in a beautiful manner. You, but..."

The woman continued to wipe away her tears and said: "However, there was a rebellion in Beijing earlier, Feng'er happened to be outside, unexpectedly he got into a dispute with the rebels, and was beaten to death by those goddamn... "

Baoqin's complexion turned pale, and she couldn't help but take two steps back.

"It's fine if Feng'er is dead. Your uncle and I have discussed these two days. Our Mei family and your father are close friends. We can't watch you, a girl, suffer from being a widow at home at a young age. So I'm ready to take you over.

Although Feng'er died, you were wronged.But from now on, your uncle and I will treat you as our own daughter. In this mansion, you are the eldest young mistress. Besides your uncle and me, Feng'er's two brothers and their future daughter-in-law , I can't get past you.

From now on, this is your home. "

The woman came down and affectionately touched the golden hairpin on the head of the Baoqin.

Baoqin burst into tears in an instant.

The person I was married to died, and I became a widow?Or the widow who only listened to people's jokes before?

Look at the family widowed, unmarried but the husband died.

These times are extremely unfair.If a man does not marry a dead wife, he will be matched with a good matchmaker.If a woman dies unmarried, she is considered a widow.

It will be difficult for any widowed daughter to remarry.Besides, good people would not marry such a woman. Firstly, their reputation would be damaged, and secondly, they would be afraid of her husband.

In addition, Joan of Arc requires women to be widows.Therefore, most widowed women in the world choose Qingdeng Ancient Buddha as their companion in the end.Or, it is to marry a trafficker, a pawn, a rogue widower, and be a concubine.

Thinking of this, Baoqin's complexion turned pale again.

When the woman saw her, she helped her to go in, and said: "Don't be afraid, after you go in and perform the big ceremony, you will be a member of our Mei family, and we will treat you well in the future."

If the little girl next to her saw such a scene, she might have no choice but to submit.Because there is no room for objection.

However, Bao Qin suddenly pushed away the kind-hearted aunt in front of her.

"No! I don't want to marry a dead man!!"

Baoqin turned around and wanted to run, but the woman beside her had expected that she might have such a reaction, and pulled her ahead of time.

Furthermore, with so many servants and servants of the Mei family around, where is she going?

The two companion maids that Aunt Xue had arranged for her were already dumbstruck when they saw the scene in front of them, and they were useless.
