The Red Mansion's Dress to Become the King of Beijing

When the favorability reaches golden, it means that the "worship" standard has been reached.However, after listening to the explanation of the small icon, the intuitive feeling of water solubility is: worshiping it is useless.

It can only be said that the goodwill has turned to gold, and after becoming a fan of his late brain, he will basically not question his decision.But now that the palace is full of green, isn't it true that no one questioned him?

Moreover, reaching the favor of worship does not mean that there will be no betrayal: Human nature is inherently complicated. Feelings are one thing, and interests are often another. Don't you just cut it?

After listening to the small icon, he said that although the example of water solubility is reasonable, it is a bit extreme.

Shui Rong smiled and said nothing more.

But he said that Shui Rong had carefully checked the paving of the cement road and was satisfied.

In the barracks next to the Wangfu school grounds, first summoned the commander of the guards, one officer and two assistants, and then summoned the top business people, and everyone sat and chatted together—everyone came, except for checking and accepting the cement road, and then stopped by to observe~ Min ~Love.

The guards, including their commanders, are all young, the city is not deep, and Shui Rong has a rhythm at will, so the boys are more open-minded and can speak the truth.

For example, the meat and eggs in the food are enough, but the taste is a bit average; the summer clothes are a bit thin, and they are worn out after a few days when it is cool; Already...wait wait wait.

At first, the commander thought that the prince was young and looked very kind, so it would be good to let his subordinates have a good time with the prince... But the mouths of his subordinates became more and more uncontrollable, and he finally couldn't help it: why do you even wear clothes and socks to take a bath? It's all said!Thanks to the bathhouse, it has now changed to a shower!

As a result, the dark face of the young commander was visibly reddened by the naked eye.

Shui Rong is always having fun: It's always interesting to hang out with a group of simple-minded young men.

The guards stationed in the palace are all elites. Although the cost of food and clothing still has room for improvement in Shui Rong's view, he doesn't want to start now.

There are two reasons.

First, as far as he knows, the guards of the Beijing Prince's Mansion are already well-known for their high salary and good treatment, but ~practice~practice~ are also really fierce, and the intensity is very high.At the same time, the real wealth of the palace, the elite in the fiefdom, are more diligent than those here, and the treatment and benefits are not as good as here.The water dissolves in its place, and a bowl of water must be as flat as possible.

Second, who made him live under the eyes of the emperor?If he took a big step, he might have to quickly activate the accident insurance that the deity left him.

Returning to the study from the school yard, Shui Rong just sat down and was about to drink herbal tea when his two younger brothers... followed the sound.

The third brother came up and confessed, "We sent someone to wait at the gate of your yard with elder brother."

The servant sent by the younger brother to "sit down" was standing by the courtyard gate at that time, and he saw it when Shui Rong came back.He smiled and asked his two younger brothers: "Show me courteousness for nothing?"

The two younger brothers looked at each other, and this time it was the second younger brother who said, "Brother, we two are wondering if we can pave the entire school ground with cement bricks?"

What kind of cement bricks are laid on the school grounds?Every day the boys go out~fuck, it is inevitable that they will be beaten, and falling on the concrete floor is much more painful than falling on the sand.

After thinking about it, Shui Rong understood what his brothers meant: the two brothers were reminding him to repair the dormitory of the guards.

Although cement is cheap and easy to get, everyone thinks that water-soluble cement is aimed at "building high walls". Therefore, cement is a well-deserved part of the imperial capital, and anyone who uses it needs to get the personal permission of water-soluble.

And if such a suggestion is made in public, the two younger brothers are afraid that the eldest brother will think that they are inviting people's hearts.

Shui Rong laughed, "You two are too careful." Without waiting for his brothers to respond, he continued, "You two really reminded me."

The current cement production bases are the two Zhuangzi in Xiangshan, and the output and quality are good.Not only is there a surplus for paving, but it can also be used as building materials.

Shui Rong originally wanted to let his craftsmen practice more.After practicing their skills, when they return to the Northeast, these craftsmen will be masters and guide their apprentices.

Water-soluble is going to make a cement floor.

He remembers that in the late 80s and early 90s, he went back to his ancestral hometown with his family, and the floors of the hundreds of years old ancestral halls in the village were still land, not floor tiles.

It should be noted that his family has always been a prominent local family, and there have been more than a dozen high-ranking officials in hundreds of years-the standards of high-ranking officials in his family are consistent with those here, all of whom are third-rank and above.

In the Beijing Prince's Mansion, apart from the main building, the ancestral hall where the memorial tablets are placed, and the courtyard where the masters live, there are earth dragons and floor tiles, while the indoor floors in other places are mostly compacted earth.

Shui Rong didn't know the technical essentials of making concrete floors, but he just had to give orders—he never underestimated the wisdom of the working people of this era.

Afterwards he told Wang Dong: Everyone will be rewarded for doing a good job this time, and when we go back to the Northeast, the ground will be treated in the same way, especially the warehouses where medicinal materials are stored in the mansion, and the courtyard where doctors are enshrined, will be very rewarding. Carefully.

However, just as Wang Dong quit the door, Shui Rong was reminded by the small icon: the small icon was still nestled in the corner of his field of vision, but it kept flashing golden light wildly, and he couldn't ignore it at all.

"Your total mission progress has increased!"

The small icon didn't refresh the screen, it was just an ordinary line of words, and Shui Rong suddenly lifted his spirits, "Completed the stage tasks issued by the system, and the progress of the overall task has not moved at all. Why did I just ask the housekeeper to take someone to lay the concrete floor? It is estimated that even the small division of labor meeting has not been completed, but the overall task has progressed?"

Although this progress... the small icon was shown to him, well, the progress has increased by [-]%.

Regarding the judgment method of the system, the small icon is of course clear, "The progress is not only based on what you have already done, but also refers to every decision you make. If this decision will have a huge impact on the future, the progress of the total task will change accordingly."

Shui Rong thought about it for a while, then suddenly realized, "The toilet and bathhouse are only used at home, without promotion, at most it will benefit more than a hundred people, so the progress of the overall task can be ignored. I made cement, and I only wanted to use it in Building the wall... Building the wall to save glutinous rice is just for self-protection, and I just said to use cement to pave the floor... Is it because I want Wang Dong to work hard in the yard where the medicine warehouse and the doctors stay? ?”

Could it be... this sentence will promote the establishment of modern clean hospitals?

Although Shui Rong felt that: Wang Dong followed his instructions carefully, and the doctors in the mansion said that the prototype of the hospital ruined the word "hospital"...

But the small icon decisively replied: "Correct."

That is to say, the degree to which improving the living quality of the Wangfu and the Wangfu Villa will advance the overall task is far less than a decision to establish a direct life-saving organization.

Shui Rong suddenly understood: When he returned to the fief, how should he prioritize a lot of scientific research.

The next day when the court went down, Shui Rong followed the agreement and took the two younger sisters out for a stroll: food and drink included, shopping included, and money included for a stroll.

It has to be said that when the two younger brothers and two younger sisters were in Xiangshanzhuangzi, they had mixed mud, burned soil and moved bricks with their own hands. During this period, no one thought it was dirty or tired.

As a "return", Shui Rong roughly explained the principle of cement solidification to his younger siblings - thanks to the elite education that the Beijing Palace has always implemented, Shui Rong's four younger siblings also have a certain mathematical foundation.

But after Shui Rong's personal assessment and confirmation, the math and science level of the younger brothers and sisters is only in the first year of junior high school, which already has some emotional bonus points, and it really cannot be higher.

Fortunately, the siblings also lived up to the painstaking efforts of the water solution. After hearing the principle of cement curing, they actually asked by analogy whether it is the same reason to order tofu with brine.

Shui Rong was very pleased, not only promised his two younger brothers to give them each a good horse, but also promised his younger sister to take them out to play... three times.

In this era, BMW is almost equivalent to a sports car, and the latter is more directly equivalent to eating, playing, shopping, and spending all the money...

Shui Rong deserved it to his heart's content, and of course he would not regret it afterwards, but he felt emotional: elder brother is like a father, sincerity is not deceitful.

On this day, taking advantage of the concubine's entry into the palace to conclude her marriage with the girl who went to the palace wholeheartedly to walk Qingyun Road, Shui Rong took the younger sisters out and wandered around the capital all day.

After the concubine returned to the mansion, she heard that her daughters had gone to "have fun" with their elder brother. She waited until after dinner before bringing her two daughters back.

The concubine was happy to see her brothers and sisters getting close, but she still pretended to scold the daughters, "What are you doing pestering your elder brother! I just think about eating, drinking and having fun all day long, and my heart is wild!"

Shui Rong sat on the edge drinking tea, and listened with a smile on his face.

The two younger sisters were also quite patient, and when their mother drank tea to moisten their throats, they took out the fresh jewelry they specially picked for their mother from the small boxes they brought back, and presented treasures to their mother with playful smiles. .

The concubine was still disgusted, but the satisfaction and satisfaction in her heart were all revealed on her face.

Coming out from the concubine's side and returning to his study, Shui Rong thought about it again: After getting along for a while, he has a certain understanding of the talents and conducts of his younger siblings.The younger siblings are also natural helpers, so he wants to find another teacher for the younger siblings in Beijing, who is good at math and science.

Teachers of this level, it is estimated that Sui Rong should at least start out, the key is to be good at mathematics and science, and it is quite difficult to find teachers who can be liked by Sui Rong in this era.

In order to avoid taboos, the Beijing Palace has always seldom made friends with scholars.

Moreover, due to the difference between civil and military, not only the Beijing Palace, but most nobles who have made military achievements are not easy to find a good teacher, unless the children themselves are extremely capable, such as the dead Jia Zhu.

Shui Rong thought for a while, and this matter is best left to Feng Ziying, who knows everything: Of course, if you invite someone to do something, at least you have to have a meal first to show your sincerity.

Since he was going to be the host, it didn't matter what he was asked to do: the teacher of mathematics and science only needed to sit in the lecture hall while his family was still in the capital.

So Shui Rong invited Feng Ziying, Baoyu, Wei Ruolan and others together.

Both Feng Ziying and Baoyu will come whenever they are invited, so there is nothing to say, but after Wei Ruolan received the post, he sent someone to ask: He has an appointment with the eldest son of the Shi family that day, will the prince allow the eldest son of the Shi family to come and sit with him?

What's wrong with this?

It was Shi Nai's eldest son who wanted to come over to "cengfan".

The four major families in Jinling, plus one Zhen family, make a total of five families. The historian should be the only one left at the end, and the glory is no less than that of the past.

After personally contacting the Jia family and the Xue family, Shui Rong felt that these two families were doomed to become dilapidated. As for the historians in the original book whose painting styles were completely different from those of the other historians, he was of course very curious.

When the appointed day came, Shui Rong sent a second steward there ahead of time, and he left the house two quarters of an hour earlier than the scheduled time—the palace was at most a quarter of an hour away from the restaurant.

When he entered the private room, he found that all the people had arrived.He cupped his hands, "It's late."

How could Feng Ziying and others take this seriously?After greeting each other and having some wine and food, Shui Rong brought out what they asked for today.

What can be said about this?Feng Ziying responded directly.Feng Ziying himself is also a noble descendant, but he has a mother who came from a scholarly family.

Feng Ziying drank half a glass of wine before saying, "I have a ready-made candidate. My third uncle." He finished his third uncle's situation in one breath, "My third uncle won the Juren, and he refuses to take the exam again, and he also refuses to be a candidate. Officer, I have been thinking about arithmetic at home all day long. My grandpa, uncle and uncle have nothing to do with him."

Having said that, everyone in the room could tell that this was a derogation and a real compliment. Feng Ziying was partial to his third uncle, thinking that his third uncle was very capable.

So Shui Rong smiled and said: "Just let your third uncle come to Beijing to hide from the gossip. I only have two younger brothers and two younger sisters here. If they don't study, they will be fine. We just need to lay some foundation for them."

"My third uncle is in the capital," Feng Ziying paused, before agreeing, "It's absolutely fine."

Feng Ziying's mother's family is not from the capital, and his third uncle is staying in the capital right now... Shui Rong didn't ask for details, but just said: "It seems that your third uncle has great skills. Please tell your third uncle, Brother Feng, I'll come to invite you."

Feng Ziying said: "It's a deal."

After finishing their business, the few of them naturally started chatting.

In fact, the brothers present here are only Feng Ziying who is good at dancing and can chat with anyone.The rest of them, including Baoyu, can only talk more on specific topics.

Feng Ziying was in a good mood because he successfully "sold" the third uncle out, and the wine was hot, and she was more courageous, "My lord, did the eldest son of the Xue family finally come to make amends?"

Feng Ziying and Xue Pan were friends, and he just called Xue Pan "the eldest son of the Xue family" to show his closeness.

As soon as this remark came out, Baoyu's face turned reddish, after a while he shook his head, took another look at Shui Rong, and then answered, "Of course not."

Shui Rong added, "I have received the Xue family's compensation. Two calligraphy and paintings, four good horses, and some money."

In fact, this gift is quite thoughtful, Shui Rong feels that Liang Ju should be added by Baochai.According to Wang Dong, although the horses sent were not high-quality, they were at least serious military horses, not draft horses.And the Xue family's business has never included military funds, so it is rare to have such a thought.

Seeing Shui Rong's attitude, Feng Ziying knew that the prince didn't care about it at all. While he was relieved, he said, "Prince Xue is rude, and I will be there the next day..." Before he finished speaking, he was surrounded by people around him. Wei Ruolan gave a punch.

Wei Ruolan thought: You drank too much!Do you still want to add fuel to the fire?

However, Shui Rong could understand Feng Ziying's incomplete meaning.He smiled and said: "He's him, we belong to us when we brothers make friends, it's two different things." After finishing speaking, he glanced at the eldest son of the Shi family who hadn't said much.

It's not surprising that the historian would choose Wei Ruolan for Xiangyun: the eldest son of the historian and Wei Ruolan basically have the same style of painting, and they don't cause trouble.

how to say?According to Shui Rong's understanding, Xiangyun gets along with his good-looking and gentle cousin Baoyu day and night. It is very common for boys and girls to have some affection. "But it's far from it.In the original book, Xiangyun seems to be quite satisfied with his marriage with Wei Ruolan, and the young couple seem to have a good relationship after marriage.

Anyway, Shui Rong doesn't recognize this part of the plot in Gao E's continuation book, "Wei Ruolan got tuberculosis, Xiangyun ended up a widow early", but thinks that Cao Xueqin's original intention should be that Wei Ruolan and Xiangyun's husband and wife are deeply in love However, Wei Ruolan led the expedition and was stationed in the frontier. The lover had to separate the two places and miss each other for thousands of miles all the year round.

Shui Rong squinted his eyes: After personal contact, he found that Baoyu's quality is good, and he can be saved with a little effort.He thought that he would come out with Baoyu when he had nothing to do, and hang out with a group of scheming buddies, so as to stay as far away from his short-sighted and extremely selfish parents.

Looking at it today, although he can only get a glimpse of it, he also thinks that the historian is very good, not to mention Wei Ruolan's family.Wouldn't it be great if these young talents could get him on the "thief ship" early?

It's really not that the water-soluble self-feeling is good, but that the teenagers in front of him have lumps of green on their heads, and he really can't justify it if he has no idea!

He did it when he thought of it, and while his family was still in the process of construction, he didn't plan to climb the technology tree for a while, so he invited Feng Ziying and others to come out every now and then, so as to foster relationships.

It is said that Shui Rong was only socializing with a group of young people, but the emperor noticed it but didn't take it seriously: the King of Beijing was in contact with the son of a family friend who was of a similar age... No matter how good their relationship is for ten or twenty years, it may not be enough. !Because the old foxes in these people's homes are all living well, and it's not up to the younger generation to have the final say.And ten or twenty years later, whether the Beijing Palace is still there or not, the emperor has confidence in himself.

As for King Beijing's friendship with the younger generation of his old friends, this gossip was specially told by Concubine Wu Gui to the emperor. After she finished speaking, she added her own opinion with a smile, "King Beijing thinks long-term, but... it's unavoidable. It's too long!"

The emperor loves Concubine Wu Gui deeply, and this tacit understanding is the key.When the emperor heard the words, Longyan was very happy, and he hugged Concubine Wu and said, "My concubine understands me best!"

Concubine Wu Gui never paid much attention to King Beijing, because King Beijing was too young.

The current goal of the Wu family is the Northwest: the most lucrative large-scale trade today, one is in the southeast coast, and the other is in the northwest provinces. No matter how big the fiefdom of King Beijing in the northeast is, because there is not much money, no one can see it now. superior.

This time, I don't know whether it is the queen or the concubine Jia who wants to bring the fiancée of Prince Jing into the palace. Concubine Wu Guifei knows it well, but she will not stop her.

That girl entered the palace voluntarily... The hatred of taking his wife depends on whether the King of Beijing can endure it.

Concubine Wu Gui also knew that the Beijing Palace was not willing to fulfill the marriage contract, so the Beijing Palace was probably quite happy to be able to get rid of the burden.But when the news got out, outsiders didn't know about it, and rumors and sarcasm were inevitable, so they didn't know how King Beijing would react at that time... Thinking of this, Concubine Wu Gui fell into the emperor's arms, smiling brighter and brighter.

Shui Rong didn't know anything about Concubine Wu's little abacus, and even if he knew, it didn't matter: he was prepared to deal with gossip when he wanted to follow the wishes of his betrothed's family.

As a modern person, how can we underestimate the influence of public opinion?

But he said that the situation is calm for the time being. When Shui Rong met Feng Ziying for the third time in a month, Feng Ziying apologized to Shui Rong directly in front of his buddies, "My third uncle should agree, but he went out for a wandering yesterday, and his return date is uncertain..."

Shui Rong knew there was a story in it as soon as he heard it, "Huh? How should I say it?"

Feng Ziying showed embarrassment, "My uncle is here."

According to Feng Ziying, his uncle is a standard image of the patriarch of a feudal family, serious and strict.Feng Ziying's third uncle was the youngest son, and he was smart since he was a child... Smart children are often not so well-behaved and obedient.

Feng Ziying's uncle is a second-class Jinshi, and now he is going to Beijing to report on his work, and he will become a Beijing official when his term of office expires.Anyway, there are no outsiders at this time, Feng Ziying has all her family affairs "bald", "Grandpa is not here, my uncle will not be lenient in disciplining my third uncle, and my third uncle ran away after hearing the news, my mother has nothing to do! My father... He also revealed the news to the third uncle in advance."

Everyone is happy.

When everyone was happy enough, Shui Rong said, "Your third uncle is not too far away from Beijing, is he? Tell him that I will block him when I go out to invite him to sit in the restaurant. Can you show my sincerity? No matter how powerful your uncle is, he can't come to my house to ask for it." people."

Feng Ziying smiled, "It's a good feeling."

Just listening to these small details, Shui Rong reckoned that Uncle Feng Ziying is a very lively person, if such a person can teach while entertaining as a teacher, then he will really make a lot of money!

After the banquet was over, Feng Ziying and Baoyu walked along the same road, while Wei Ruolan...would rather take a short detour to visit the Shijia: at the moment Xiangyun is still at her second uncle's house, not staying in the Grand View Garden of Rongguo Mansion.

So... Wei Ruolan and Xiangyun are going to have sex right now?With the nourishment of love, Xiangyun may be a little more peaceful.After all, it is normal for this girl to have a sensitive mind since both her parents died.

After Shui Rong heard Wei Ruolan say to the eldest son of the Shi family, "Today is also on the way", he patted Wei Ruolan on the shoulder without saying a word, and then walked away.

Wei Ruolan drank some wine, and his brain was not as good as usual, so he asked the eldest son of the Shi family who had always been friends and had a good capacity for alcohol, "What does the prince mean?"

The eldest son of the historian was expressionless, "The prince is laughing at you."

Of course, brother Wei and his cousin hit it off, and the eldest son of the historian family is happy to see it succeed: Brother Wei wants to stop by to see Xiangyun... Anyway, it's still early, so let's see it.

The next day, Feng Ziying sent someone to inform him of his third uncle's whereabouts and where he was hiding now, and Shui Rong planned to find a good day to invite him personally as soon as possible—as a king with a different surname, he was not allowed to leave Beijing without an edict, but this "Beijing" meant It refers to the capital in a broad sense, and the suburbs of Beijing are included in the capital.

Feng Ziying's third uncle won the letter from his nephew, so he would not go far, so Shui Rong invited him home without any trouble.

In order to hide from the eldest brother, the third uncle Feng Ziying didn't ask for anything, and hit it off with Shui Rong, and directly moved into the palace with his wife and children...

Shui Rong's younger siblings had heard about the new teacher's family affairs, but when they came to their home as if they were fleeing, the four younger siblings were somewhat suspicious of the teacher's level.

Feng Ziying's third uncle's move to hide from his elder brother seems unreliable. When it comes to teaching and his own academic level, it is another matter.

In fact, high-end teachers in ancient times also specially prepared teaching materials and lesson plans, but the lesson plans were all in their hearts.

Water-soluble can't ask about the lesson plans at this time, but you can read the textbooks.After receiving the textbook from the third uncle and flipping through it casually, Shui Rong was shocked: What?Teach equations and Euclidean geometry?By the way, do you want to popularize astronomy?Although the level of astronomy at this time is a bit... hard to describe, teachers who can teach students astronomy definitely have two brushes and are rare, so... the third uncle Feng Ziying is Mei Wending's template?

This is equivalent to buying a lottery ticket for two yuan and winning the special prize...

Shui Rong is enjoying himself at home, and is about to have another dinner to thank Feng Ziying, but he gets the news that Baoyu is seriously ill.

Shui Rong thought for a long time: Brother Jiang Yuhan is still moving bricks in his own villa, so Baoyu must not have been beaten by Jia Zheng, that is, Aunt Zhao asked some Taoist woman to curse Baoyu?

Because he knew that Baoyu was fine in the end, Shui Rong was not really worried, but he didn't say anything when he got the bad news, so he sent someone to remind Jia's family, don't bump into something.

The people sent to Jia's house in the afternoon came back, and brought Jia Zheng along... The second old master bowed straight to the end as soon as he entered the door, begging Shui Rong to save his son's life.

This attitude... is really weird.

The author has something to say: the first update.There is another chapter tonight.
