After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

At this time, the prince also realized that what he just blurted out was inappropriate, and he couldn't help but feel apologetic.

Jia Jing gave the prince a comforting look, put his eyes on Zhang Chun, the prince's uncle, and asked again: "May I ask Mr. Zhang to explain the confusion for you."

Since there is a dispute, it is at least divided into two factions.

After Zhang Chun got the crown prince's approval, he glanced at the three people sitting opposite him intentionally or unintentionally, and stated the facts objectively: "Master Liu suggested that you should contact your classmates, the same year, and play the saint of love, on the 25th lunar month. At that time, His Highness’s kneeling mat was moved from outside the threshold of Fengxian Hall to inside the threshold. Lord Wang and Lord He reconsidered, and Lord Lu and others objected.”

Jia Jing's eyes froze, he took a deep look at Mr. Liu who proposed, then looked into the prince's eyes solemnly, and asked in a deep voice: "Then what about Your Highness? What is your Highness thinking?"

If you look carefully, you will find that Jia Jing's hands clasped in his sleeves are trembling faintly.

At this moment, there is only one thought left in his mind:

--coming!

He didn't expect that he had just recruited some people for the prince earlier, and some people couldn't help it earlier and used this trick in advance.

There was such a thing in my previous life.

At that time, Jia Jing was still a fledgling bachelor's student, and he couldn't figure out the muddy water in the court hall, let alone how cold the so-called emperor's mind could be.

At that time, after hearing this proposal, he only felt that this would further announce to the outside world the different status of the prince and the princes, and let those who are interested understand what is the difference between a monarch and his ministers.

Naturally, the prince was also very moved.

However, they all ignored, or were unwilling to think about, what the saint would think.

That's right, for the prince and the princes, the prince is the king, and the prince is the minister, so naturally there are differences between the prince and the ministers.

But for the sage and the prince, the sage is the king, and the prince is the minister, so why is there a difference between the king and the minister?

When the royal family offered sacrifices to their ancestors in Fengxian Hall, only the sage knelt in front of the ancestral tablet in Fengxian Hall.

The rest, even the crown prince, could only kneel outside the threshold.

The rest of the people, led by the princes and clan relatives, knelt under the jade steps.

Layer after layer, the identities and statuses of the people were clearly and decisively separated.

Last time, many people jointly wrote a letter, asking the sage to move the prince's kneeling mat to the threshold, and the prince was also motivated, planting a thorn in the sage's heart.

Jia Jing didn't know whether Master Liu who made this suggestion really wanted the prince, or he was ordered by others, and had other plans.

Because at that time in the previous life, Mr. Liu had already left Zhanshi's Mansion and sent him to Suzhou to be judged.It was an adult surnamed Su who proposed at that time.

However, these are not important, he just needs to dispel the prince's thoughts.

No, Jia Jing's heart skipped a beat: Maybe, he can take this opportunity to trick those princes a little bit.

To be honest, this proposal really moved the prince's heart.

But the current crown prince is no longer Wuxia Amon. The more he understands the mind of the sage, the more he knows that the sage will never allow others to challenge his majesty.

But such a temptation is definitely not something the prince in his early twenties can resist.

The impulsive and rational entanglement made the prince hesitant to decide.

Until he saw Jia Jing's deep gaze, the prince's heart trembled, and then he sighed deeply, saying: "If you say that Gu Ban has never been tempted, of course it is a lie. But Gu knows father, and knows that this thing can't be done."

"Your Highness..." Lord Liu was impatient, and eagerly persuaded, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Seeing that the princes are all grown up, if you don't take this opportunity to frighten one or two, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for Xiao Qiang in the future. !"

Heh, he spoke so impassionedly and with an air of utter loyalty, as if if he quit this vote, the sage would abolish the crown prince tomorrow.

On the contrary, Mr. Wang and Mr. He, who had just agreed, were awakened by the prince's words, and their expressions hesitated.

Mr. He said humanely: "Your Highness, what Mr. Liu said is a bit alarmist, but it is not unreasonable."

"Yes, Your Highness." Lord Wang also said, "Aside from other things, the Third Prince is quite disrespectful to His Highness on weekdays. And the Ninth Prince, always taking advantage of his young age, is quite perfunctory towards His Highness's etiquette .”

Lord Liu immediately said: "They neglect His Highness so clearly, they clearly have different intentions, Your Highness must guard against it!"

He was so impatient that even the prince who had been seduced by him before was quite speechless: "That's all for the third child, how old is Xiao Jiu? What Master Liu said is too much, isn't it?"

Even if the prince doesn't like Concubine Zhen's mother and son, he knows that the Ninth Prince is just spoiled by Concubine Zhen and spoiled too much by the servants in the palace, so his eyes are unavoidably high.

Besides, the sage just laughed it off. If he was fussing with a child, what good would he end up with?

Mr. Liu seemed to realize that he had acted too much, so he couldn't help being a little embarrassing, but he still insisted: "I am loyal to Your Highness, please think twice."

The prince shook his head resolutely: "Let's let this matter go, don't bring it up again."

Mr. Liu seems very unwilling, but the prince has made up his mind, and he has nothing to do.

Jia Jing glanced at him again, and said with a smile: "Since Your Highness has made up his mind, the ministers will naturally follow His Highness's orders. After all, we are all His Highness's people now, and we can only be better if His Highness is well. If Your Highness is here Something went wrong, the sage has a deep affection for His Highness and his son, but he is determined not to spare us."

He is not alarmist.

Master Su, who suggested it in his previous life, was quickly relegated by the sage to a remote area as a county magistrate. Until Jia Jing died, he was still wandering around in several poor counties!

When he said this, Jia Jing had been secretly paying attention to Master Liu, and he clearly saw that Master Liu's pupils shrank and he lowered his head slowly.

Zhang Chun was also the one who saw this scene.

Zhang Chun secretly sighed: It's really not easy for him, the prince's nephew.It had only just given birth to some wings, and some people couldn't get used to it and wanted to trip it up.

"Chen Gong is right." Zhang Chun's voice is like the spring water that is about to thaw in the early spring. will be suspected."

This is almost clearly saying that if someone teases the prince again, he will betray the master.

Master Liu didn't dare to speak anymore, and Lord He and Lord Wang changed their words quickly, expressing that they would follow His Highness's instructions.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was naturally very satisfied with this, and he comforted everyone with some words, and wrote a few empty checks by the way, and all of them were united for a while.

Seeing this, Jia Jing felt that if he didn't take the opportunity to trick those princes, he would be sorry for the people sitting in the study.

"Your Highness, I have an idea." Jia Jing looked solemn, as if he was reporting important military and state affairs in the Golden Temple.

The prince has been with him for a long time, and he also knows his virtues, and knows that once he shows this kind of expression, he is going to risk bad luck.

This huge contrast between appearance and heart, no matter how many times the prince looks at it, he still feels stomach ache.

But the prince is still willing to cooperate with him: "Let's listen."

Jia Jingdao: "The princes are also the sons of saints, brothers of His Highness. But His Highness can kneel on the jade steps, but they can only kneel under the jade steps. It is inevitable to feel resentment."

There are no stupid people present, Jia Jing doesn't need to speak clearly, everyone will understand.

The prince looked around for a week, and finally fixed his eyes on Zhang Chun: "Master Zhang, what do you think?"

The Zhang family is a heir to the family and attaches great importance to the rules.

Even though the crown prince's biological mother is Zhang Chun's sister of the same father and mother, Zhang Chun is determined not to let the crown prince call him uncle.

Zhang Chun raised his eyebrows, looked at Jia Jing with a new look, and said to the prince: "As long as no one is aware of the manpower of the Eastern Palace, whether this matter is successful or not, we have no loss. "

"Actually, this is also easy." Master Liu was a little scared by Jia Jing and Zhang Chun, and he also understood that he was making a big death earlier.

Seeing that he had an opportunity at this time, he quickly turned his merits into crimes, "The Zhen family has some contacts in the court over the years, and the Ninth Prince has gradually grown up. Just find someone to challenge them one or two."

At the same time, he also thought: After returning, he should return the 300 taels of silver.

Mr. Liu is a truly noble son from a poor family. After so many years of hard work, the whole family has only supported him as a second-class Jinshi.Although his nephews have a few qualifications, they have not yet entered school.

In other words, for many years to come, he will be alone in the family and will not have the capital to take risks.

If it was replaced by a family with many talents, it might not be as easy to solve as Mr. Liu.

Of course, if he was a son of a rich family, he wouldn't have such shallow eyelids and be bought off by 300 taels of silver.

Seeing that the prince had no intention of pursuing it, the rest of the people nodded and praised Mr. Liu's plan. They couldn't help but feel relieved, thinking that if they follow the prince in the future, at least they won't be convicted for no reason.

Zhang Chun also said: "Master Liu is right, but I don't know which lord can take on this important task?"

Although he was asking a question, his eyes were fixed on Jia Jing.

Jia Jing is also very bachelor: "Don't look at me, although the Zhen family is related to our family, but my father has always been critical of his family's sending their daughters into the palace. Meaning."

This "sending a daughter into the palace" is obviously referring to Concubine Zhen.

Of course, what Jia Jing said was beautified in order not to offend others.

Jia Daihua's original words were "send a daughter as a concubine".

Although Zhen Gui is the emperor's concubine, she is not the real wife after all.

Jia Daihua has always been critical of this, thinking that a good daughter's family would marry a well-matched family unscrupulously, but instead send her to serve others...

In short, this made Jia Daihua, who had read several ancient books of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, look down on him at some point.
