The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Since Jia Lian's speech last time, he gained face and was able to see the emperor frequently. Although the Imperial Academy was originally a place to train people to participate in politics in addition to studying, a small editor can have an audience with the emperor. , is still a remarkable face.

The Zhang family also reminded Jia Lian a little bit about what it means to be with the king like a tiger, and Jia Amnesty just cared about being happy. If he hadn't put out his thoughts now, he would be a nerd at home all day long, and he would probably be angry with him. Many people showed off their son, but it was because of his personality that Mrs. Zhang raised him to be an otaku.

Whether the emperor would know King Zhongshun's thoughts, Jia Lian didn't know, but he thought in his heart that the emperor might know. After all, if he were the emperor, he would have to keep an eye on those who threatened his throne.What he knew better was that unless he was the emperor's male favourite, the emperor would not do anything to King Zhongshun for him in such a situation. If he wanted King Zhongshun to be unlucky, he could only do it himself.

Lin Ruhai is in the south of the Yangtze River, so it can be said that the battle with the Zhen family is in full swing. Although he has the emperor's support, he is not the emperor's closest confidant after all, and he dare not do it often, so as not to put himself in embarrassment realm.And the Zhen family was really brilliant at first, but it's a pity that the Supreme Emperor is gone, King Zhongshun is just a prince, and the gap between the noble concubine and the queen dowager's family is not the slightest bit, and their family has to pay attention to their affairs. .It is precisely because of this that the two companies are still testing, and some of Lin Ruhai's actions in the salt administration can still be carried out. Although the effect is not [-]%, it still has the desired effect.

It's just that even if it was like this, the emperor was still not happy. He was short of money, not just a general lack of money.It can be said very bluntly that what the emperor took over from the Supreme Emperor was a mess. It would be fine if there was no Supreme Emperor at the beginning. In terms of official administration, there must be no less policies that should be implemented. Anyway, it is wholeheartedly for the sake of the national treasury.

But unfortunately, although the emperor ascended the throne, he can be regarded as the most unlucky emperor. There is a Supreme Emperor on top of him. King Zhongshun, the youngest son born to the concubine.After becoming an emperor, the Supreme Emperor also changed his good habit of thrift and love of extravagance, and the emperor couldn't help being satisfied. Over the past ten years, the emperor thought of many ways to collect money, but it is a pity that he still can't change the reality of his poverty , If he wants to be well-off, the emperor still has a long way to go.

A penny is hard for a hero, not to mention how miserable an emperor who is short of money will live. Lin Ruhai's actions in the Jiangnan Salt Administration can be regarded as slightly easing the emperor's predicament, but he is still short of money of.

In Lin Ruhai's heart right now, he wanted to return to the capital as soon as possible so that he could have a happy reunion with his daughter, and then watch her marry and have children. Naturally, she didn't have the idea of ​​being a model worker and forcing herself to death.Under such circumstances, it is even more impossible for him to admit that it is because he is not good at doing things. Jia's mansion is very clear-headed now, and Lin Ruhai doesn't care about the so-called old relationship with the Zhen family.The old fox who has been promiscuous for so many years, Lin Ruhai was very rude and tactfully expressed to the emperor that it is not easy for him to do this. After all, a strong dragon does not overwhelm a snake, not to mention, he is not a strong dragon. Woolen cloth!

The emperor read his notes, and was quite dissatisfied with it. Some of them were dissatisfied with Lin Ruhai, but most of them were naturally dissatisfied with the Zhen family.Jia Lian was very lucky to feel this, and he was even more worried that he would become an unlucky person being used by the emperor, so he worked hard to gain a sense of presence.

When he met the emperor that day, he smiled and told a western story he had seen recently, but, where is there any western story?Jia Lian was just making it up. The advantage is that he made it up in the emperor's heart.

"Listen to you, the mistress of the West is really hiding a traitor inside," the emperor squinted at Jia Lian, and his tone was a little unclear, "Is that so?"

Jia Lian's face was calm, and he replied calmly to the emperor's question, "Actually, although what she did harmed the original heir, she helped her child obtain the position of heir, and guaranteed her own glory and wealth, didn't she? A poor heir, but the means are insufficient, maybe if he can think of these things, he will not be stingy with using these means."

What kind of story did he tell?In fact, it is very simple. It is a matter of a stepmother killing the original heir in order to let her son inherit the family property.It can be said that this kind of story exists in all ages, and they are around them. For example, in the Jia government, Li Shi was very rude to kill Jia Baoyu, and even Jia Huan, she did not forget to use some means .

It’s just that Jia Lian chose to say that this is a Western story, and the reason is extremely simple. If he told the emperor that such a thing happened in a minister’s family or a wealthy businessman, he would definitely be speaking ill of others. , even if you say it casually as a joke, it will make you look low-level.But if it borrows Western stories, it becomes the spread of culture, and it suddenly looks very tall, is there any reason!

Jia Lian is not a tall person, but as a shameless person, he doesn't mind copying those tall people's methods, and this is also the inspiration he got from Lin Daiyu.

When he went to visit Mrs. Zhang that day, he happened to meet Jia Yingchun and Lin Daiyu who were whispering in the garden. Seeing the two smiling like flowers, he couldn't help asking, "What do you mean you are so happy?"

Jia Yingchun wanted to tell him, but Lin Daiyu tugged Jia Yingchun's sleeve and said to him, "It's a matter between us little girls, it's not something that a gentleman like Cousin Lian should listen to, Cousin Lian should not ask. "

He obviously didn't want to tell him, but he said it as if it was for his sake. This is called packaging. Jia Lian had some experience about it, but seeing this from Lin Daiyu, a lolita, he still felt that his darling Lungs were hit.

The emperor's face was still calm, and he asked with a smile, "It seems that you appreciate that mistress quite a bit?"

Of course, Jia Lian could not express that he admired a woman, but it did not prevent him from admiring a method, "Praise and kill this method seems to be extremely effective, especially in the face of such a situation." His commanding heights made everyone feel that he was a good guy, and he hit his opponents unceremoniously, and he deserved nothing less, which is nothing short of remarkable.

So, when facing a shrew, if you become a stronger shrew, yes, you can win too; but if you become a cute and pitiful little white flower, then you are absolutely invincible.

'Praise and kill', the emperor said silently in his heart, such a method can be said to be quite disgraceful, not to mention, these are all methods that women like to use, but governing a big country is like cooking a small fish, as long as it is effective, what kind of method Not good?

However, his eyes turned to Jia Lian, he didn't do it just to tell himself a story, did he?The hidden guards around the emperor had been watching King Zhongshun all the time, and he would know immediately what the prince was thinking, not to mention, this time, he was very obvious.

It seems that Jia Lian deliberately told such a story today to show his brains?Since he is a loyal and intelligent courtier, he still doesn't mind getting a guarantor.

Jia Lian still had less time to stay with the emperor, and he was already very satisfied with simply brushing up his presence, not to mention, it was not his own idea, the reason why the emperor still tolerated those things A person he doesn't like, he must think so in his heart, what he needs to show is that he and the emperor's thinking are similar.

King Zhongshun already felt Jia Lian's indifference, and he was very dissatisfied in his heart, "Jia Lian is just a mere one, this king is his face, can he still resist?"

Feng Ziying and Wei Ruolan only found out about this matter after hearing Shi Guangzhu's gossip, and their faces immediately turned ugly, "Misfortune comes from your mouth, and you can't talk nonsense."

Shi Guangzhu looked at Feng Ziying and Wei Ruolan. Speaking of which, his status was higher than theirs, and now he was not as good as these two, and considering their close relationship with Jia Lian, he sneered Said, "I'm not talking nonsense, but actually there is such a thing. Besides, Prince Zhongshun fell in love with Jia Lian, and it's also his..."

Before he finished speaking, Feng Ziying had already slammed his fist on the table in front of him. If his temper hadn't worn down a bit as he got older, this punch would not have been on the table, but on Shi Guang. beads on the face.

It's a pity that he thought he was giving Shi Guangzhu face, but the other party didn't feel that way. Instead, he felt insulted, "What's the matter, Feng Ziying, could it be that you are reluctant?"

After Feng Ziying heard this, she was about to rush up to smash Shi Guangzhu, but Wei Ruolan was not a vegetarian, so she grabbed him, "Ziying..."
