After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

Looking at the tall towers of the capital, Shi Nai was filled with emotion.

After his rebirth, he has been busy with funerals and filial piety.When I left Beijing, I was in a hurry, and I never looked back.

Speaking of which, he and the imperial capital of Great Xia really looked back in a lifetime.

Feng Bao urged: "Master Shi, the sage told you to enter the palace directly after you enter the capital."

Shi Nai came back to his senses, and smiled apologetically, "I've been away from Beijing for a long time, and when I come back suddenly, I can't help but be moved."

"Master Shi's mood, our family understands." Feng Bao said with a smile, "Let's go now?"

"Please, Eunuch Feng."

Shi Nai turned around and asked Tian Liuxian, the second housekeeper, to take his luggage home, and followed Feng Bao into the palace on horseback.

After entering the outer city, as far as the eye can see, there are igloos everywhere, making people feel as if they are in a fairy tale world made of ice and snow.

It's just that those old clothes, yellow and thin people who went in and out of the igloo immediately made people sober: this is not a fairy tale, but a cruel reality.

Shi Nai sighed secretly: He still did too little for these people, and I feel a little sorry for the rewards issued by the system.

Thinking this way, he touched a piece of paper hidden in his arms, and thought: I only hope that this cement recipe can save the people from the snow disaster next year.

Although he had such expectations, Shi Nai himself knew that this was impossible.Not to mention the efficiency of the Ministry of Industry, even if the Ministry of Industry is working hard, the cement produced must first be used to strengthen the border defense and repair the imperial road.

It's really the people's turn, I don't know when it will be.

But he couldn't just do nothing because of this.

"Master Shi, we have arrived at the gate of the palace." Feng Bao's voice came over.

Shi Nai immediately returned to his senses, smiled gratefully, put away all his thoughts, handed over the horses to Jin Bao to take care of them, adjusted his normal clothes, followed Feng Bao, and headed for Qianqing Palace.

"My humble minister Shi Nai, see the sage, may my emperor live forever."

"Shi Qing please hurry up." The saint was obviously in a good mood.

"Thank you saint." Shi Nai stood up and stood with his hands down.

The saint asked: "Shi Qing, on your way back, did you see those igloos?"

"Go back to the saint, I saw it."

"Haha, with these igloos, many people whose houses were crushed by the snow were saved from freezing to death. Shi Qing, you have made a great contribution!"

Shi Nai said sternly: "This matter is all due to the wise man who is willing to listen to the advice of a commoner. If not, the minister has a thousand ways, and it is all in vain."

Who doesn't like to hear good things?

What's more, the saint may not have such thoughts in his heart.

This kind of courtier who can do things without taking credit is exactly what the sage likes.

The sage encouraged: "I put you in the household department, you have to work hard."

"Thank you saint!" Shi Nai did not pretend to refuse, but said firmly, "Although I have no experience, I will definitely ask my colleagues for advice with humility, so as not to miss the state affairs."

"Good!" The sage praised, "I just like a young man with a drive like you."

Shi Nai showed a shy smile: "I also want to thank the sage for giving me a chance."

As he said that, he seemed to suddenly think of something, "By the way, the sage exempted the debts of the minister's family. The minister was so grateful that he had nothing to repay, but by chance, he got a prescription. The minister thought that it was God's will to borrow the minister's money." hand, dedicate this prescription to the saint."

As he said, he took out the cement formula from his pocket, "Let the sage take a look."

The prescription not only introduced in detail the materials and steps of making cement, but also its uses, usage and effects.

The sage could tell at a glance that this was a good thing, and its value was definitely more than 30 taels.

"Shi Qing really wants to dedicate this prescription to the imperial court?" Even though he had already held the prescription in his hands, the sage couldn't help but confirm it again.

Shi Nai looked sincere, "The thing made here is a sharp weapon of the country, how dare I keep it for myself?"

"Okay, Shi Qing is indeed a capable minister, a loyal minister!"

"The sage praised it."

******

Even though he had dealt with saints in his previous life, when Shi Nai came out of the Qianqing Palace, he still felt that his underwear was soaked.

There is no other reason, it is really the prelude to the king, so we have to be cautious.

But today's sin, he obviously hasn't finished.

He belongs to the prince, and he must go to see the prince when he returns to the capital.

However, he remembered that in his previous life, the crown prince didn't like them very much, so he should be able to go home soon.

But he soon discovered that he was wrong.

I don't know why, but today's crown prince is very warm to him, giving him both a seat and tea.That's all, the prince even cared about his family affairs, as if he was treating him like a confidant.

Shi Nai was at a loss, but had to deal with it carefully.

It wasn't until after talking for a long time that he figured out the reason from the prince's words.

It turned out that after Jia Jing received his letters and memorials, he did not pass them directly to the saint, but first came to find the prince.

This incident made the prince realize: Although these descendants of the four kings and eight princes are the power that the sage gave the prince, they are not all saints. There are also people like Jia Jing who are dedicated to him, the prince.

And because he wrote the memorial, the prince mistakenly thought that he asked Jia Jing to show the purpose to the prince first.

This misunderstanding is really... great!

To be honest, although he didn't think of it when he asked Jia Jing to perform on his behalf, Shi Nai was not at all surprised that Jia Jing would put the crown prince first.

Jia Jing is such a person, he will do his best.

Anyway, in the end, the successor must be the prince's family. He has the experience of his previous life, as long as he handles it carefully, he will always end well.

After thinking through this point, Shi Nai paid more attention when talking to the prince.He even confided, intentionally or unintentionally, what he had learned about the Jiangnan officialdom during the past six months in Jinling.

Shi Nai has lived a new life, and he has experience in dealing with the monarch, and he thinks that he is careful enough in what he says, and he can't reach the trace.

But although the crown prince didn't have his adventures, he was also a prince carefully cultivated by the sage, and he still faintly noticed a trace of excitement and strangeness in him.

However, with the fact that Jia Jing came to the East Palace first with his memorial, the prince only thought that he was too shy about these four kings and queens in the past, so that Shi Nai, Jia Jing and other people who were loyal to the East Palace were loyal. Nowhere to put.Now that he is suddenly taken a fancy to by himself, it is inevitable that he is excited.

The prince felt that the other children of the four kings and eight kilometers might be able to screen again.

When he came out of the East Palace, Shi Nai brought a lot of rewards, all of which were gold and silver, cloth, jewelry and other things that could be used at any time.

Even though he has been reborn, Shi Nai still feels very moved.

Because, although the crown prince didn't say it clearly, he obviously knew about his family's situation and found an excuse to subsidize him.

If there is such a monarch, it is indeed the luck of the ministers and the blessing of the people.

Although the sixth prince is also a Mingjun, he is too strict after all.

When Shi Nai returned to Bowling Hou's mansion, Yan's beamed with joy and led people to welcome him: "Master Hou is finally back."

Yes, he is already Lord Marquis.

Shi Nai also couldn't help showing some joy, stepped over the brazier, walked in while holding Yan's hand, and asked about some family affairs: "Have you been okay at home for the past six months?"

"Everything is fine at home, Lord Hou don't have to worry."

Then, Mrs. Yan said that Jia Mu wanted to pick up the eldest girl several times, but she refuted it in the name of keeping her filial piety.

"My wife has done a good job on this matter." Shi Nai patted Yan's hand approvingly, "The eldest brother and sister-in-law are gone, since I have inherited the title of the family, our husband and wife will naturally treat the eldest girl as our own." Wait. Our own daughter will naturally have to be raised by herself, so why worry about her as a married aunt?"

The eldest girl has lived in Yan's west wing for so long, and Yan sees her every day, and the child is so cute, Yan has already cultivated feelings, and agrees with her husband's words very much.

"What Hou Ye said is that it is very rare for a concubine to look at a big girl."

Seeing the look of joy and regret in her eyes, Shi Nai understood her thoughts and comforted her: "We will have our own children soon."

Yan Shi smiled shyly and couldn't help blushing.

Yan supported Shi Nai and walked all the way to Jingsui Hall.Shi Nai raised his eyebrows, and thought, "Is this going to be moved to the main courtyard?"

However, he can also understand his wife's mind.Although his younger brother has no intention of competing with him for the title, the third younger sibling has always been cautious.

Mrs. Yan estimated that as soon as she received the news, she asked someone to clean up the main courtyard and move in. There must be some intention of demonstrating and showing off to Mrs. Ma.

He didn't bother to care about women's affairs, anyway, the third brother was sober, and the brothers wouldn't have any quarrels because of women's fights.

Shi Nai's luggage was piled up in the yard and hadn't been unpacked yet, so Shi Nai took advantage of the early morning to tell Yan Shi which box was brought by the third son to Ma Shi and the second girl; Souvenir, used as a gift between relatives.

"Those two boxes are newly produced Suzhou embroidery, which has not yet spread to the capital. I just cut two clothes for you. And those two boxes are the gouache produced in Hangzhou and the latest soap made by the Xue family. Whether you keep it for yourself , or take it as a gift, it’s fine.”

Yan's face blushed upon hearing this.She didn't care what Shi Nai brought her, what she cared about was that her husband always thought of her.

In this regard, Shi Nai, a straight man of steel, said: Madam, you think too much, it is not me who thinks about you, but the system fairy.

At that time, he had packed up all the salutes, and the system fairy suddenly asked him: "You have been away for so long, don't you bring a gift for your wife?"

Shi Nai: "..."

--what?

He was really dumbfounded at the time.

They are old couples, why are they still playing with those vain things?

The system said: "According to data analysis, long-term separation of husband and wife can easily lead to marital infidelity. If a man travels for a long time and does not bring his wife a gift when he returns home, it will arouse his wife's suspicion, which is not conducive to family harmony."

Shi Nai: "...so?"

Continuing to be confused.

"So, you get the idea."

Shi Nai: "..."

--I am sorry, I do not understand.

"Hey, no, System Immortal, were you teasing me just now? Did you actually tease me?"

In his impression, the system fairy was very mechanical and rigid from the very beginning, it would only run according to the program, and would not lie, let alone be funny.

"The first program of the system simulated humanization, but the energy was insufficient, so I had no choice but to start the second program. This time, you have made great contributions to the disaster relief, which is considered to be for the country and the people. The Qi you get has been transformed into energy, allowing the second program to gradually move towards the first program. A program of evolution."

It turned out to be the case.

Shi Nai nodded, and asked worriedly: "Is there no problem with this transformation?"

The system said: "This is the first time that this kind of program is gradually transformed into another program. I have already declared to the main system and am waiting for the main system's instructions."

There has always been a simple and neat direct switch between programs, and the gradual transformation is the first case in history.

Shi Nai was a little worried, but he couldn't help with this kind of thing, so he could only secretly make up his mind to earn more merit.

However, the most important thing now is to prepare a gift for his wife.

Well, what the system fairy said is right.
