Across the heavens in the Red Mansion

Chapter 197 Congratulations
Zhongshun Prince's Mansion held a poetry meeting in an arty manner as usual.

Officials, courtiers or land tycoons like to hold these banquets that can gather literati, one is to attract diners, and the other is to make friends with young talents, no matter people from big places or small towns in the countryside.

Today, Jia Lang was invited to participate in the poetry meeting held in Prince Zhongshun's Mansion, where Jia Lang met many seniors of the same age and imperial examinations.

The Poetry Club is naturally about composing poems and reciting them correctly. Jia Lang will not be so divorced from reality. He just composed a well-regulated poem. Seeing the young people who won the first place were very excited, Jia Lang followed the crowd and handed over his congratulations.

Immediately, there was a lot of drinking and drinking. There were not many entertainment activities in ancient times, and this wine was a great way to relieve boredom. It could not only enhance the relationship but also pass the time.

The banquet was over, and before Jia Lang was about to leave, he was invited by the housekeeper of the palace to the courtyard hall in the back yard of Prince Zhongshun. After stepping into the hall, Jia Lang realized that he was not the only one, but there was also a rich man among them. Li Dafu.

Seeing this, Jia Lang understood the general idea, and it did not go as Jia Lang expected.

First, King Zhongshun praised Jia Lang's honeycomb briquette, but Jia Lang also used an excuse to be modest.

But then King Zhongshun pretended to be mysterious again, and said with a smile: "Zicheng, this king is here to congratulate your Jia family first."

Jia Lang was a little confused when he heard it, and then asked without hesitation.

"My lord, forgive the students for being rude, what's the point of this?"

Following Jia Lang's question, King Zhongshun asked back: "Is your eldest daughter of the Rongguo Mansion in the palace?"

Hearing this, Jia Lang was taken aback for a moment, and then he began to recall in his mind, and finally remembered that Jia Zheng had an eldest daughter, Jia Yuanchun, who had already entered the palace when Daiyu entered Jia's mansion, and even Jia Lang had only seen her a few times. I vaguely remember a girl like Xue Baochai.

Thinking of this, Jia Lang already knew what King Zhongshun was congratulating, and Jia Lang still had some impressions of this incident. The rare event in the Red Mansion was also a short-lived recovery of Jia's power. The return of Jia's mansion.

"My lord, there is such a thing. It's the eldest sister of the second uncle's family. Could it be that something in the palace has settled?"

Although Jia Lang guessed it, he still pretended to be confused and asked tentatively.

Seeing this, Prince Zhongshun smiled slightly and said mysteriously: "That's the case, your elder sister is about to be selected by the imperial brother as Shangshu of Fengzao Palace, and named Xiande Concubine, and you may be summoned to the palace after a while."

"Isn't this a happy event?"

After hearing King Zhongshun's words, Jia Lang looked serious and solemn and said: "Thank you for your majesty's great kindness, which makes my Jia family honorable!"

With an appearance of loyalty, there are still two days on the side, one is the housekeeper of Zhongshun Palace, and the other is Li Dafu.Li Dafu's eyeballs couldn't help but roll when he heard this, he is the confidant of King Zhongshun.

"Wang Ye means Your Majesty, Your Majesty means Your Majesty, so to speak..."

After King Zhongshun heard Jia Lang's words, he narrowed his eyes slightly and the corners of his mouth as well. Although he didn't know whether Jia Lang was sincere or not, this was the effect he wanted. Not everyone could do such a good job in acting. Don’t we often have to act in front of us?

Regardless of whether the two of them are brothers of the same country, he has deep experience in the saying that being with a king is like being with a tiger.

No matter how good it is, the relationship between the brothers is still solid, as long as he is a transfer station for the money bag in the hands of the emperor brother, as long as there is no hope for any position.

After waiting for a few minutes, King Zhongshun said mysteriously to Jia Lang: "Your Majesty is very satisfied with your father's and your performance. As long as you stand in a good position, your Majesty will never treat your Jia family badly."

Jia Lang naturally expressed his position again. Jia Lang knew what Jia Amnesty was running around. He was able to ventilate, especially after Jia Lang worshiped Lin Ruhai, Jia Amnesty told Jia Zheng and Jia Mu that he would vigorously support Jia Lang's superior position.

Both Jia's mother and Jia Zheng had a lot of affection for Jia Lang, and with the fact that there were no promising children in the Tongning State Mansion, Jia Lang became unique at this time. Consider adding that Jia Amnesty has repeatedly spoken for Jia Lang.

Naturally, there is no disagreement between the two. If Jia Baoyu was a little more promising, Jia's mother would not be so helpless. At this time, Jia's mother also thought from time to time that after her death, the great Jia family would not be defeated. It would be great to add a protective umbrella to Jia's mansion, so that Baoyu can live a better life after his death.

It doesn't mean that Lin Ruhai is better than Jia's mansion, it's just that the name of Lin Ruhai's disciple is much better than Jia's mansion just because of his civil service career.

The Lin family is a family of Zhong Ding, a family of scholars, and Lin Ruhai has made a lot of achievements in the civil service examination.

"If there is a good business like briquettes to make money again, don't forget about this king. This king is also acting for the emperor." With a smile on his face, King Zhongshun teased: "But next time, your dividend..."

Why did King Zhongshun do this? Naturally, this time the briquettes indeed made a lot of money, but counting the money that was handed over to the emperor's brother, although he earned a lot, who would think it was too much money!In this way, if Jia Lang can get a few more businesses like this, it would be good to make more profits. If Jia Lang makes a concession, he will naturally earn more.

"It's a student's duty to do things for His Majesty. It's not good if you don't take any money. I'll just take some money!" Jia Lang hurriedly continued.

That being said, anyway, I don't have much need for money, but whether or not to offer advice depends on whether I am willing or not, but I still have to say nice things.

King Zhongshun heard this, and lightly patted Jia Lang on the shoulder as if to signal: Well, that's how you guys are!

···After leaving the Palace of Zhongshun, Li Dafu congratulated Jia Lang for a while, Jia Lang still gave Li Dafu a lot of face because of Li Tong, and complimented each other.

······
too illusory,

A monk, a monk, and two people stood respectfully outside Jing Huan Fairy's retreat.

Immediately a ray of precious light flew out from the arms of Master Miao Miao, turned into a stream of light and flew towards Fairy Jing Huan, and then a flash of light flashed in the eyes of the fairy, and a stream of light flew out, falling in front of Master Miao Miao, the great man, the body was still in place.

I saw that she was not angry at all, and said in an empty and cold voice.

"Boundless, insignificant, and impressive, what is its origin?"

"Fairy Hui, the two of us..."

"In that case, you guys go back first!" Immediately, the incarnation waved at the monk and the Taoist, and then the stream of light flew back into the main body of the Tao.

A puzzled, suspicious look slowly floated up.

"Let's do this for now, as long as it doesn't ruin my way...if not..."
