Jin Yuliangyuan of the Red Chamber

The days passed by so quickly, half a month had passed before I knew it, and it was the New Year's Eve.

Before dawn, the Lingyan Pavilion was brightly lit, and the servants came and went, and a row of stone lanterns on the Yudai Bridge was as bright as day.There are snowflakes floating in the sky, one after another.

In the room, both Baoyu and Daiyu got up. They had just bathed and were eating breakfast.Today is also going to enter the palace early in the morning. Although I got up early, I couldn’t help but went to bed before eight o’clock last night. The two of them usually have a regular schedule. They both go to bed early and get up early, so it’s not particularly bad. Spirit.

"When you enter the palace, you should go to the empress's place. You have been there last time, so you shouldn't be afraid, right?" He said to her while eating the fat and cute soup buns, then squeezed his eyes and smiled: "And This time, the princess will enter the palace with you!"

She drank the hot sweet porridge and rolled her eyes: "Understood, I'm not afraid anymore, okay?"

He smiled, thinking that maybe when you come back, you will be so happy and silly!

The two had their own thoughts, he was imagining the scene when the marriage was given, and she was thinking that she didn't have time to tinker with medicinal materials recently, and she must continue to learn after the New Year is free.Soon after eating, it was time to get dressed and get ready to go.

Because of the New Year, both of them wore red clothes that they don't usually wear.Not to mention, this kind of person who rarely wears bright colors once in a while does have a different feeling.

Daiyu was different from her usual beauty and elegance, but delicate and beautiful like a flower; Baoyu was heroic, not as mature and stable as usual, but more like a boy of his age, with more vitality.

Putting on a purple-black mink fur cloak outside, the two of them walked out together, beautiful and conspicuous in a piece of silver, with a handsome and beautiful appearance, which made the people of Zhuangzi pleasing to the eye and in a good mood early in the morning.

He went out and got into the carriage, and soon after walking forward, he met Jia Lian's carriage. Sister Feng would not enter the palace because of her heavy body, and she also told Shuihong and Du Yueyan.

The three of them left after saying hello. Not far away was a water-soluble vermilion cart. Gu Qing was pregnant for more than three months, but she still followed her out. Seeing them coming, she wanted to talk to Daiyu.

Shui Rong hurriedly stopped her: "Grandma, please be careful! After entering the palace, you will have to talk for a few days! It's not too late. Be careful, children!" She gave up her thoughts, and only stayed through the window After saying hello and saying a few words, he was pushed back into the car.

At this time, the sky was only slightly white, and it was snowing again, making it even more gloomy.The clatter of horseshoes was amplified infinitely in the mountains, like knocking on people's hearts.

In this rhythmic melody, Daiyu leaned in his arms relaxedly, and the fresh and elegant spices were burning in the warm and comfortable carriage, which made her a little drowsy.

He found that she seemed to be sleepy, so he let her head rest on his lap: "If you are sleepy, just take a nap for a while, the road is still long." The car is very spacious, and the two of them are sitting on the big couch. You're welcome, quickly adjusted his posture, and squinted after a while.

At the gate of the palace, everyone got out of the car, wrapped their cloaks tightly and walked in.The whistling north wind raged on the wide palace road, and a group of people moved quickly, and soon approached the main hall.

As a member of the clan, Shui Rong naturally went with the group of princes and sons. Baoyu Jialian found Yunteng Gu An with the courtiers, and the four of them got together to say happy new year to each other.In addition, there is Lin Ruhai.Everyone is familiar with each other, and it won't be embarrassing even if they sit together without talking.

Daiyu and Gu Qing parted ways with the men and went to the queen.

When the time comes, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven and ancestors will be held.Shuihong was dressed in an ocher-yellow dragon robe and carried Shui Xingyun. Behind him were the princes and then the ministers. They knelt down outside the Fengxian Hall in a mighty manner, and began a lengthy speech amidst the howling wind and falling snow. Heaven sacrifice speech.

After all the tossing and tossing, the whole morning has basically passed.Baoyu didn't notice anything because of her internal strength to protect her body, but the others were all too cold, and even Shuihong probably wasn't much better.

Back in the warm hall, everyone was busy looking for the stove to drink hot tea to warm up their half-frozen bodies.Lin Ruhai is not young anymore, even with the method of breathing that Daiyu taught him, he is in much better health, but he can't stand standing outside like this for a long time, and when he comes back, he puts his arms around the stove and pours cup after cup of tea.

Fortunately, Baoyu persuaded him to add a cloak before going out, or if he can survive it, he can't talk about it!

At noon, the banquet was finally about to begin.Baoyu sat in front, with Gu Anjialian and the others beside him.He glanced back a few times and saw Jia Zheng and Jia She sitting at the back, almost at the end.

The two of them, one is a small official named Wailang, and the other has a hereditary title. If it weren't for Baoyu Jialian's face, they might not have been able to get a place in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty!As an elder, he still doesn't have the face of his children, so I won't say what it feels like.

But Baoyu couldn't control that much. Years ago after watching Jia Lian and Shui Rong, Baoyu took Daiyu to Lin Mansion for two days, and then went back to Rong Mansion to have a look.

Both Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang were dissatisfied with their noses and eyes, probably dissatisfied with him for taking so long to come back, and they were very cold.

Jia's mother probably had some effect on what she said half a year ago, so she didn't care much about it anymore. Seeing them go back, she still enthusiastically pulled them to talk, and also saw Yingchun Tanchun and the others.

Li Wan and Jia Lan's attitudes were the same as before, and Baoyu was naturally amiable as well.Jia Lan's child is more handsome and well-behaved, not as wretched and impetuous as Jia Huan, Baoyu thinks it's good, and thinks he can be promoted and helped.

As for Mrs. Wang, he really didn't want to see her face anymore, just like how much money he owed her, he didn't even bother to pretend.

He actually didn't want to make the relationship as bad as it is now, but the other party is really resentful, and often secretly makes some tricks, so let's just let each other go their own way and let each other not be an eyesore, there is no need to whitewash the peace.

The banquet started soon, and Shui Hong first delivered a New Year's speech on it, summarizing the political situation of the past year, and praised Jia Lian, saying that he had made great contributions to fighting against foreigners and maintaining the country's prestige.Then I looked forward to the future, and then began to serve.

Now the atmosphere became lively, and after Shui Hong spoke, everyone could walk around and toast at will, and the feast began to be filled with laughter and laughter. Not to mention how many cliques there were, at least they seemed to be in harmony.Shui Hong changed his clothes, ate and drank with Shui Xingyun on it, and seemed to be in a good mood.

Because Jia Lian was called by Shui Hong, there were quite a few people around at the moment, and he had to deal with them one by one. with.

Yun Teng had a serious face, and after drinking a few cups, he pissed, and before he left, he gave him a dark look.Gu An was able to drag and greet people there with ease, it seems that this person was born to be a mess in the officialdom.

Because he joined the household department and had to manage the tribute war horses, many people came to inquire about which firm he would hand over to for business. This is a huge profit!Who is not tempted?

Jia Zheng drank alone from the beginning, but Jia Amnesty was lenient and enjoyed singing and dancing on his own.The relationship between the two is not very good, so they didn't exchange a word for a long time.

Jia Zheng has aged a lot in the past six months, and now at first glance he looks like a man in his 60s.He took one cup after another, looking up at Baoyu and the others in front of him from time to time, he was having a good chat with King Beijing Jing, both of them looked happy with red faces.

Looking at Jia Lian again, there are many people around him, and it is not difficult to see their friendly intentions on the face.Even Lin Ruhai, who has always been a bit unconvinced, now holds a high position, and no one dares to underestimate him. The emperor often rewards dishes to show his favor!

He is not reconciled!Most of his life has been spent without success, he might not be as good as a few juniors, he feels that he can't hold his head up in front of his colleagues, although they always envy him for having a good son, but he always feels guilty when he hears it Yes, the number of times has increased and there has even been resentment.

This is also the reason why he always smiles stiffly when he sees Baoyu now.I am not as good as my son or something, the most shameless!

He was depressed here, but Baoyu was in a very anxious mood, just waiting for Shuihong Jinkou to open and settle the matter quickly!So for the rest of the afternoon, I was restless and restless.

Shui Hong and Shui Xingyun looked at him scratching his ears and cheeks in a hurry, the father and son met their eyes and laughed quietly.Shui Hong suppressed a smile and said to his son: "Look at your Uncle Baoyu, if Emperor Father didn't say anything today, he would probably go crazy!"

Shui Xingyun is already [-] years old, and knows a lot about Baoyu and Daiyu, so he laughed when he heard his father say that.

But after laughing, he still said kindly: "Father, please stop teasing Uncle Baoyu, if this continues, he will become a resentful woman!"

When Shui Hong heard the word resentful woman, he couldn't help it anymore, and burst out laughing.

The people below didn't know the reason, but seeing that His Majesty was in a good mood, they were also happier. It's better than this time, right?

After laughing, he had seen enough of Baoyu's anxious look, so he said, "Baoyu, come forward quickly." The hall was quiet, and everyone stopped talking and laughing and waited for the next sentence, guessing what His Majesty the Emperor was going to do again up.

Baoyu's eyes lit up, and he quickly got up and bowed down: "The minister Jia Baoyu is here!" Oh oh oh!Is it finally coming?

His heart was beating like a drum, and he heard Shui Hong from above asked with a smile: "After the new year, you will be eighteen?" He was taken aback: Why do you ask this?

However, he still answered quickly: "Return to Your Majesty, that's right." Shui Hong said again: "Since you are an adult, it is inappropriate to call it Biaozi. I will choose a name for you, Jin. Jin is beautiful jade, but also It suits you. How do you like it?"

So the bottom exploded.

It is a great honor to be given a name by the Holy One!I really don't know how this young Mr. Jia got into His Majesty's attention. First, he was hand-picked as the second place, and then he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by a high-ranking official, and now he is even given a name!Everyone is jealous!Is it possible...

Some people began to speculate maliciously, but Baoyu didn't know it, but responded quickly and happily accepted the name. In fact, he had wanted to get rid of the tacky name of Jia Baoyu for a long time!

"Jin's calligraphy is very good, I thank the Lord Long En!" He kowtowed his head upright to thank him.

Shui Hong smiled and asked him to get up.After he stepped back, the banquet continued, and all the ministers looked at him enviously.Although Baoyu has won such a title, seeing that Shuihong just let him down without mentioning the marriage, he is full of suspicion and not very interested.

It was not until the afternoon when the play started and everyone began to entertain themselves. After the banquet, Shui Hong, who had left the banquet, had people call him and Lin Ruhai into the inner room, and he became happy.

After entering, only Shuihong was there, and everyone knew each other well, but Shuihong probably wanted to play out of boredom, so he pretended to ask the two of them a few words and said some high-sounding words.Then he changed the subject and asked about Lin Ruhai.

"Lin Qing's family has worked hard this year, and I want to reward them well. I don't know what the Qing family wants?"

When the emperor wanted to do it, Lin Ruhai naturally bowed and resigned in cooperation: "Your Majesty is benevolent! I have nothing else to ask for, but I can only do my best for my great Zhou, and I dare not be greedy for merit!"

Shui Hong touched his chin and nodded, "Lin Qing's family is really my humerus ministers! If all the ministers of my Great Zhou are like you, why worry about the country's prosperity!"

He sighed, then suddenly remembered and asked: "By the way, if I remember correctly, there is a daughter in Lin Qing's family who has always been close to Baoyu. Is there such a thing?"

Lin Ruhai hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty is right. I do have a daughter. Her mother, Jia, is Jia Jin's biological aunt. She passed away more than ten years ago, and she is now 16 years old."

Shuihong smiled and clapped his hands: "That's just right! When the Chinese New Year is celebrated, I will be a matchmaker and marry your daughter to Jia Jin. Would you like it?" After speaking, he looked at Baoyu again.

Baoyu and Lin Ruhai looked at each other, and they both saw joy in each other's eyes.

The two went forward and knelt down, shouting: "I am willing! Thank you Your Majesty for the marriage! Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"
