Chapter 150: Transmigrated into an Unlucky Marquis (1)
"Yuan girl has been in the palace for many years, but there is still no result. In three years, she will be 25 years old, and she will be granted grace and released from the palace. But if she really wastes time until that age, how can she find a suitable family..."
As soon as Ning Ning walked in, she found herself in a magnificent main hall.
He sat on a carved mahogany chair. On the table next to him was an exquisite bronze incense burner, emitting a faint fragrance.
There are also famous calligraphy and paintings on the wall, and several pairs of exquisitely carved armchairs are placed around them.
Next to him, in the seat for important guests, sat an old lady in luxurious clothes, wiping tears from the corners of her eyes.
There was also a middle-aged lady who, seeing the old lady crying, hurriedly stood up and went to serve her, but she herself could not help crying and seemed to be even more worried than the old lady.
The old lady continued, "Yuan girl grew up by my side, and it was my idea to send her to the palace. If her life is ruined, it would be my fault! I am also a filial daughter-in-law, and I would be sorry for her if Yuan girl's youth was wasted. Your second brother has been sent out of the capital again, so I can only ask you with my old face, can you help Yuan girl think of a solution? No matter what, our Shi family and Jia family are blood relatives for generations!"
The old lady said, looking at him expectantly.
Ning Ning, "I think what my aunt said is very reasonable. My aunt's vision and strategy are definitely not bad. I watched Yuan girl grow up, and she is definitely a talented person. It's really unfair for her to be paired with those vulgar people. She should be paired with noble people."
When the two people opposite heard him say this, their eyes suddenly lit up.
The middle-aged lady couldn't help but speak, "Then please, Lord Shi, do it for me..."
"Cough, puff!"
Before she could even ask for help, Ning Ning suddenly coughed twice, her face turned red, she covered her neck with both hands as if she couldn't breathe, and then a mouthful of blood spurted out!
"Lord Shi, what's wrong with you?"
"Ding'er, how are you? Someone come quickly, call the imperial physician!"
"Ahem, aunt, it's not that I don't want to try my best, but, it's just that my body is really useless now..."
The old lady became even more anxious, "Didn't you say you were just ill occasionally? How come you are so seriously ill?"
"Hey, ahem, that's all hidden from outsiders, haha!"
As he spoke, he spat out another mouthful of blood. The two ladies could no longer sit still. The housekeeper of the Shi Mansion also ran over in a hurry, "Madam, our master is just too stubborn and never talks about his illness. In fact, he, alas -"
"Forget it, help him back to the inner hall to rest. Have you called the imperial physician?"
"I have sent someone to invite him."
The Marquis' Mansion was able to invite an imperial physician, so the old lady didn't say much. She just gave a few instructions, sighed, and left with the middle-aged lady.
The middle-aged lady looked unwilling, but the other person was so sick, and she still forced him to do things for her. It was really unreasonable, so she could only give up.
As soon as they left the house, Ning Ning's expression softened and she began to tease the housekeeper, "The imperial physician said that soaking some wolfberries in tea can strengthen the body, but you put too much."
The housekeeper grew up with him and knew that he was not angry, but he pretended to be very painful, "You are too difficult to serve, didn't you say that I should put more wolfberries in it, and you can chew them for fun when you have nothing to do, and treat them as blood when you have something to do. Why are you blaming me now? I have it so hard!"
"Stop talking nonsense and go find your connections at the Gusu salt merchant. I have some information to pass on to my cousin's husband."
"I'll do it right away."
The butler took the order and left. Ning Ning still felt a little unreal, "Little Tongzi, am I really in that book? That book is so famous, it's a huge masterpiece!"
"I didn't travel into the book, but into a world derived from the book. Because the book was not finished, people in later generations speculated about its future direction, and even developed it into a discipline. There are countless fan fictions. Everyone is obsessed with it, so many small worlds were derived from the book. This is one of them. The characters and events in it may not be the same as the original."
"Oh, now I understand. The original body never appeared in the original book."
"Even if you don't appear in the movie, since this is a world of book evolution, I can't help you change your name here. You can only be called Shi Ding. Be careful and don't forget your name."
"Shi Ding..."
Ning Ning silently thought that he had transformed into the third master of the Shi family, inheriting the hereditary title of marquis.
This book is written from the perspective of the Jia family, but if you change it to someone else's perspective, the feeling will be different.
The Shi family is actually a powerful family that woke up early. The eldest brother died early, leaving only Shi Xiangyun, an orphan, to live with the second wife.
The second and third branches of their family had communicated with each other early on and began to advocate thrift and diligence in housekeeping, otherwise "the grace of a gentleman will be cut off after five generations", and they were afraid that the glory of the mansion would not last long.
At the same time, they also began to distance themselves from those corrupt dignitaries. They wished that titles like "the Four Great Families" would be forgotten.
So in the original novel, they had very little contact with the other three families. Only Shi Xiangyun was taken in by Grandmother Jia to stay with her for a few days from time to time to show that she had not cut off contact with her natal family.
But in this world, there are many rich plots that are not mentioned in the original work.
Jia Yuanchun had been in the palace for many years, but she was just a female servant. This made Grandmother Jia, who had placed high hopes on her, very disappointed and even worried about her lifelong affairs.
But the men of the Jia family now only have empty titles. Even if they have official titles, they are just honorary titles. They don’t even have the qualifications to attend court. They are anxious but there is nothing they can do.
She had no choice but to put aside her elder's airs and run to Shi Ding to discuss the matter.
After all, Shi Ding and his second brother Shi Nai both hold official positions, and their positions are not low. They also have connections in the palace. If they want to help, they will definitely be able to help.
In the original plot, the original body politely declined. After all, reaching out to the palace is not a trivial matter, and the situation in the palace is complicated now. If you are not careful, you may be guilty of the serious crime of confiscating the property and exterminating the clan!
