The Honor of the Red Chamber

Jia Rong never knew that Shui Mu had such thoughts in his mind at the moment, and saw that Shui Mu's expression was a little strange. Although he was puzzled, he knew it was not the time to ask.

For a while, Shui Mu saw that Jia Rong was in a state of embarrassment, so he couldn't help being embarrassed, so he called the housekeeper, and only ordered to invite the imperial physician. , the prince still wants to call the imperial physician, is this to embarrass Mr. Jia or the prince himself?

Jia Rong also only wondered if Shui Mu didn't beat her up enough and intentionally took revenge on herself—she hurriedly stopped her, "They are all people who practice martial arts, so it's just a matter of applying some medicine for minor injuries. I think the prince's house must have these commonly used medicines. What kind of imperial doctor is called, the prince will save some face for me."

Shui Mu gave him a sideways glance, turned her head and left, Jia Rong's ears were sharp, and she only heard Shui Mu muttering "I really don't know good people...", while angrily pulled her face and walked straight away, leaving him in the original place. place!

Jia Rong rubbed the wound on her face, blinked her eyes, and didn't know whether she should walk away in anger, or touch her nose and leave feeling unlucky, but the housekeeper apologized to herself with a guilty face, "My prince was young. So he went to the frontier, all these years he only knows how to train soldiers, he really doesn't know the world and people, if there is something impolite, I hope Mrs. Jia will forgive him."

Jia Rong waved her hand, the real master has left, so what crime is there to blame?

While the two were talking, a servant came over and said with a respectful smile, "My lord invited Mr. Jia to the study, saying that he has prepared medicine."

When Jia Rong and the butler heard the words, the back of Shui Mu leaving in high spirits coincided with the word "囧" on their faces.

This time, Shui Mu did not invite Jia Rong into the bedroom. Although there was a bit of aftertaste from the last time, it left a shadow, so Jia Rong saw the deserted study of Prince Xining—a few books dotted with empty space. There are a few half-new writing brushes and a half-dry Duan inkstone on the large mahogany desk.

Shui Mu also noticed Jia Rong's eyes, looked over, couldn't help but blush, and said in a rough voice, "What's so interesting, I just don't like reading, so why bother to be arty? I don't believe you alone General, the study room can be organized like those sour scholars, besides, my subordinates will never want that waste that needs to be divided into three paragraphs to complete the sentence, don't let me catch it!"

Jia Rong was touching the bookshelf and sighed, but she didn't even have a military book. Hearing Shui Mu's strong words, she smiled casually and didn't take it seriously.

Shui Mu was just arguing with Jia Rong to say a few words to divert his mind. Seeing that Jia Rong didn't answer, he felt bored, and when he thought about the reason for his depression today, he let out a long sigh—although he has a bad temper, it's not because of his brain. Not good, why didn't the emperor call him back suddenly, and was anxious to tell him about the intentions of his relatives, but his brothers were so defensive, he became the heir to Uncle Wang of Xining, and then hid and fought for ten years. He couldn't escape all kinds of calculations. I'm afraid that in this life, there is no other way but his death. What else is there to say?

Thinking about the seventeen brothers when the father was there, the crown prince was still there. Although there were open and secret fights, after all, he was too young to be involved in anything. Only that year when the father passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne, I went to eight or nine brothers at once, and I went to a few more one after another during the years when the emperor was in power. Now, except for the princes of the older generation, among the same generation, only the oldest loyal prince and himself Well, the rest of them, Dongping, Nan'an, and Beijing, all belong to Uncle Wang's family, and they won the title of county king, which is not very eye-catching.And he has won countless battles in battle, and he has already qualified to be a prince. The emperor's brother has continuously rewarded him with gold, silver, jewels, and manors, but he has never mentioned that he will be promoted to the prince. Although he doesn't care about these things, he can think of various reasons. , still couldn't help but feel chilled.

Although he is not in the capital, he still has some channels to know the news. The absurdity of Prince Zhongshun has not been a day or two, but he still remembers how the gentle and elegant elder brother was when he was a child. Afterwards, although he was guarding the east side, it was not like him. He always stayed in the middle of Beijing for half a year. The Prince of Dongping, Shui Wei, was originally close to the deposed prince, and he was in an awkward situation. Only the mild-natured Beijing King Shui Rong was left.

Isn't Brother Huang tired after such a day?

"Your daughter-in-law has gone, and your family didn't point you to another one?"

Jia Rong was taken aback when she heard Shui Mu's question, daughter-in-law?Then Fang thought of Qin Keqing who had gone away, and the relationship between Qin Keqing and Shui Mu. He didn't know whether Shui Mu knew about it. He didn't understand what he meant for a while, so he said vaguely, "Although there is no need to guard for a year, after all, um, they are also husband and wife. One... I didn't intend to remarry at first, but my mother was very worried. Besides, I am the only child in a family like ours, and I will always have a daughter-in-law in charge of the house in the future. Now my mother is making arrangements for me, and the day when I want to remarry is too late. It won't be long."

Hearing this, Shui Mu's complexion suddenly darkened, and he lowered his head to stare at a point, uncertain about the weather.

Jia Rong also suddenly thought that during these two visits to Xining Palace, she didn't even see a woman, not to mention maids, concubines and the like. It's really unreasonable to be angry, is there something hidden?

But seeing Shui Mu's expression, Jia Rong stopped the topic. Anyway, under such circumstances, it's always a bit uncomfortable to say this.

But Shui Mu said in a low voice, "You don't care at all? Didn't you have Qiang'er before? Could it be that he is not angry when you marry a wife?"

Jia Rong smiled in surprise, "Is this your idea? I didn't know you had such a clean idea... It's a pity... It's just that the world is not as you want? Let's not say that we are separated, and now Brother Qiang has The senior official who has been thinking about it will inevitably be accepted as a concubine in the future, even if we are still together, why is he angry? Well, aren't all the men here like this, no matter what, they have to pass on the family line."

Speaking of the last few sentences, Shui Mu was caught in his own emotions, but he didn't hear the indifference in Jia Rong's tone. If there was no matter about Jia Qiang and Qin Zhong back then, wouldn't Jia Rong have the same thoughts as Shui Mu? ?If you only have one heart for yourself and another for the other, how can you allow others to intervene in the world of two people?After all, in his life, the word "loyalty" was engraved in his bones, and it was the same in love, but after all, he received a blow in the face before he understood how unrealistic his thoughts were here.

Thinking about it, Shui Mu has been far away from ordinary life for too long, so that he can still maintain such a simple idea, but, how long can he keep it?It's better to let yourself do that one blow.

The sentence "...it's a pity..." was a pity that he and Shui Mu hadn't met earlier.

At this time, Shui Mu raised his head, looked at Jia Rong, and smiled provocatively, his eyebrows and eyes were flying wildly, shining with a wild and unruly light, which only made Jia Rong lose his mind, and his heart beat like thunder, "I But I don’t accept it. Just to carry on the family line, I want to marry a strange woman and give birth to a so-called heir? Such behavior will not only harm myself, but also harm the other party. What fun is there in life? If I can’t go my way, I will So what if I lose my offspring? Besides, with my status, it’s better to adopt a cub from my clan, which is much easier than having one myself. You don’t dare to fight or resist, so why do you have to act helpless? You just wait Look, if I get married, it must be the one I love, and we will be a couple for the rest of our lives, and that will be called beauty and live a good life!!"
