dream of red mansion

"Brother Xue, don't worry about it, I have my own opinion on this matter." Jia Qing said, still sent Wang Shun and others to go, recruited the old man by himself, and walked in with their brothers and sisters.

When Xue Biao saw it, he couldn't help but sighed in his heart and asked: Is this the bearing of a dignitary who came out of Beijing?

Only the younger sister, Bao Qin, looked at the indifferent Jia Qing, with a flash of understanding in her eyes.

"Tad'er, what happened outside?"

Walking to the inner courtyard, before entering the house, I heard Mother Xue calling anxiously.

Xue Biao hurriedly ran into the door, comforting him repeatedly.Xue's mother was relieved when she saw that Xue Tiao's brothers and sisters were all fine, and then stared at Jia Qing who came in with them.

Jia Qing also saw Mother Xue, she was a pretty woman, but her expression was so sluggish, she seemed to have trouble moving.

Xue Biao quickly introduced: "This is Sister Baochai's fiancé, he is from the Jia family in Beijing, and he helped drive Zhang Huai away just now."

Xue Biao took care of his mother's state of mind and only talked about things in the simplest direction.

"Thank you for your righteous nephew..." Mother Xue wanted to thank her.

Jia Qing hurriedly helped her, and said sincerely: "Auntie, you don't need to be polite, such trivial matters are nothing to worry about. In the past, I often heard my aunt talk about my aunt, but I never came to visit, so please don't blame me."

"Don't blame me, I wish you could come. Qin'er, why don't you pour tea for your brother!"

"Oh."

Baoqin poured tea and offered it to Jia Qing. Jia Qing took it and thanked him, and said: "Today, my nephew took the liberty to visit, but because I heard that my aunt was ill, I invited a doctor to come and see her."

Doctor Fei came forward after seeing Jia Qing and the others finish their simple reminiscence.He saw it just now, this young man who is suspected to be Lord Hou is very vicious, he dare not show any disrespect or negligence.In case it makes him unhappy, order someone to hit the little old man with a stick, the little old man can't stand it.

"Thank you, nephew, for your trouble."

Mother Xue was even more moved. If it wasn't for etiquette, she would have pulled Jia Qing to thank her.

I have never seen such a sensible and sensible boy.

Taking advantage of the time when the doctor was seeing her mother, Bao Qin walked up to Jia Qing and asked, "I heard your subordinates call you Lord Hou just now. Are you really Lord Hou?"

Jia Qing turned around and said with a smile, "Why, it doesn't look like it?"

Bao Qin wrinkled her small nose and said, "Is it true?"

Jia Qing smiled and said nothing.

Perhaps it was Jia Qing who gave her a very good first impression, and she called her brother-in-law before, but Bao Qin didn't admit that she was born, and said: "But I have seen the generals of the clan's Zhen Guo and Fu Guo going out. The title is not as high as yours, but they are all impressive!"

The implication is that Jia Qing is not imposing enough.

Jia Qing said with a smile: "I can't tell, Sister Baoqin knows a lot."

The title of the royal family, the first rank is naturally the prince, and the next is the county king, then the king of the state, the prince of the state, the general of the state, the general of the state, the general of the state, and again, just like Liu Bei, there is nothing. .

According to the Dachu system of unequal ranks, most of the clans that remained in Nanjing were in the series of generals of Zhenguo and generals of Fuguo.

However, the first and second rank titles, only receive a meager salary, except for the name of the clan, they have no real power at all.

The so-called style is nothing but swagger.

This point is completely different from the former Ming court.Apart from being cruel to the clan, the benefits are obvious.Great Chu has been around for a hundred years, and there has never been a situation where the clan's tail is too big to lose.

That’s right, not only will it be downgraded by one level or even a few grades, but it will disappear after a few generations. How old are you?

Jia Qing went south this time because he had business to do, so naturally he wouldn't talk about pomp.If we really want to talk about ostentation, his Marquis position can support three hundred soldiers alone!

That's a soldier, not a servant guarding the courtyard, and he can clearly hold a knife and a gun.

However, Jia Qing has just been knighted, and the personal army has not yet been built.Otherwise, if you really want to bring hundreds of soldiers to swagger through the city of Nanjing, you will definitely crush these fringe clans.

It's just that it's easy to be impeached...

Baoqin blushed slightly after being praised, and asked curiously after a while: "I see that other people's servants are all men, why are there so many girls in your subordinates?"

She had seen those Plum Blossom Guards dressed in white and disguised as men.

Jia Qing looked at Baoqin carefully, thinking that this girl is not as polite and introverted as ordinary girls in the boudoir, but has a bit of Xiangyun's liveliness and Daiyu's cunning.

Jia Qing couldn't help teasing her, saying: "You really want to know?"

"Uh-huh."

"Come over here."

Baoqin came over by ear.

Jia Qing whispered: "Actually, they are all my accompanying concubines."

"Ah?" Baoqin opened her mouth wide, and suddenly her face became hot, and she cursed: "Rogue!"

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

Xue Biao and Xue Mu originally saw Jia Qing and Bao Qin talking amicably, so they both smiled.Seeing Baoqin swearing at people unexpectedly, she was startled.

Mother Xue said: "Qin'er, why did you talk to your elder brother Jia and still not apologize?"

"Hehe, it's okay." Jia Qing said with a smile: "It turned out that I was careless in speaking and offended Sister Qin. I should apologize to her."

Mother Xue was even more impressed.Only a child like Baochai can be worthy of such a good character.

Hey, I don't know how the Mei family's child behaves, and whether he will treat Qin'er well in the future...

Mother Xue was a little worried.

Baoqin's marriage was arranged by Xue's father when she was there, and she had never met the eldest son of the Mei family.

At the end of the doctor's diagnosis and treatment, there was no definite cure, only some prescriptions for medicinal diet and conditioning, and he left.

Mother Xue asked Jia Qing when he would return to Beijing, and Jia Qing replied that it would be about ten or twenty days later.Mother Xue said: "Since that's the case, I have an unfeeling request. I also ask my nephew for help."

"Auntie, please tell me."

"It's about your sister Qin. Her father arranged a marriage for her, and she was the son of Mei Hanlin's family in Jingzhong. Now you have seen my illness. If you delay any longer, I'm afraid I will miss your sister Qin. .

It just so happened that her aunt was also in the capital, so I wanted to ask them to go to the capital to find your aunt, and let her help make the decision and conclude the marriage for your sister Qin.

But the road to the capital is far away, and the two of them are still young, so I am a little worried about going to Beijing alone.Therefore, when I want to trouble my nephew to go to Beijing, I would be very grateful to bring the two of them along. "

At this time, Baoqin couldn't care less about annoying Jia Qing, and cried, "My mother is here, and I'm not going anywhere."

Mother Xue just patted her head without saying a word.
