Jia Juan of the New Red Mansion

Shui Fang smiled, and while kneading Shui Baobao's fat hands, he said in a low voice, "You also saw it at the palace banquet, the emperor's attitude towards King Dongping is very ambiguous, it would be nice for our two families to get closer in the future." It doesn't matter. Besides, Princess Dongping is easy to get along with, so it's not a bad thing for you to get in touch with her more."

Jia Juan also heard about the inner house of the Dongping Prince's Mansion, and said curiously, "Princess Dongping is a princess with royal blood, and her demeanor is not comparable to that of ordinary people. I heard that she gets along with several concubines. Like my own sisters, I treat the children of concubines as my own. Tsk tsk, if it were someone else, how could they have such a measurement."

When Princess Dongping stuffed women into the prince's room, in addition to stopping rumors, she was also worried that if something happened to King Dongping on the battlefield, it would cut off King Dongping's blood.So, she made a decision that every woman in that era would make, and selected a few good-looking women for the prince, who were blessed and looked after to be able to bear children as aunts, in order to spread more branches and leaves for the Dongping Palace.Looking at the prosperous population of the Dongping Palace now, one can see how hard the Dongping Prince worked.

It is common for rich families to have one husband, one wife and multiple concubines, but there are very few people who are truly as close as a family like the Dongping Palace.The wives of most families look virtuous on the surface, but secretly trip up the aunts and oppress them everywhere.And none of these aunts can really keep their own place, and they all have small thoughts to make trouble in the house, so they are very uneasy.

Therefore, don't look at some masters who are enviable and enjoy the blessings of the same people. In fact, here is a mixture of ups and downs, sweets, bittersweets and various tastes. Slowly taste another unspeakable taste.

"This is the shrewdness of King Dongping. You think he is an old man who only knows how to fight. In fact, he also passed the Juren when he was young. Moreover, he is not a martial artist, but a Wenju who passed the examination based on his real skills." Jia Juan Suddenly he opened his mouth wide, because the Lord Dongping is still an all-rounder in civil and military affairs, he couldn't tell it at all, he thought he could only lead soldiers to fight, and he was a vulgar man who could only wield knives and guns.

Shui Fang took a sip of water, and then said, "This is why you don't understand. You think that leading troops to fight the enemy, as long as they can fight and kill without fear of death is enough? If all the generals of our dynasty are like this, Could it be that he was defeated by foreign enemies a long time ago. How can the dynasty still have the vast territory it has today." King Dongping was one of the few generals in the dynasty who were good at fighting and well-versed in writing.

Jia Juan nodded in agreement with his statement. Famous generals such as Sima Yi, Zhou Yu and Lu Xun in the Three Kingdoms period, Sun Bin in the Warring States period, Li Jing in the late Sui and early Tang dynasties, and Han Xin, the founding hero of the Western Han Dynasty, were all famous Confucian generals. Become famous by one force, but convince the world by his strategy.

If you want to say why Jia Juan is familiar with these historical allusions, you have to thank your parents in the previous life.On her tenth birthday, her father gave her a set of 5000-year-old picture books as a birthday present. Jia Juan was attracted by the stories in the book.

So I asked my father, who is a history teacher at school, to buy books about history for her. Of course, my father was very happy. In order to let Jia Juan learn more professional historical knowledge, he even went to the provincial library to borrow several books. Understandable history books, and take the time to tell Jia Juan short stories about historical figures every day.Under the influence of his father, Jia Juan naturally became a master of history.

It's a pity that I didn't get into a major related to history during the college entrance examination. Although my father didn't say anything, Jia Juan sensitively sensed that my father was very disappointed.Thinking of this, Jia Juan's eyes darkened.

"The university said, Qi family governs the country and the world. Those who want to govern their country first have their families in order, family affairs and then the country, and the country and then the balance. This principle is also applicable to the talents of the generals. The old fox of Dongping Wangfu Dongping Wang , That’s called great wisdom and stupidity.” Seeing Jia Juan’s distraction, Shui Fang thought she was tired, “Madam, if you are tired, you should rest first. I’ll let the nanny come in and take the baby out.” After finishing speaking He was about to call the nanny to come in, but was stopped by Jia Juan. "I slept too much during the day, how can I sleep now."

The entertainment life in ancient times was really boring. After being busy with the big and small things at home every day, I was too idle. The standard ancient women could not go to the streets to show their faces, and could only stroll around the house to relieve boredom.When I first came there, I found everything strange.After a long time, it seems that the scenery is the same, so I feel boring.

Apart from taking a walk after dinner to digest food, Jia Juan is too lazy to go to the garden to enjoy the flowers and feed the fish by the lotus pond every day. First, she can’t learn the leisure and elegance of these women in the boudoir, and second, she sees too many flowers. I started to get tired of aesthetics, and the fish were too fat to swim.

Reading, practicing calligraphy, painting, playing the piano and embroidery are things that women in the boudoir often spend time, not to mention. The traditional Chinese characters in ancient books are a headache to look at, and the written characters are like chicken feet scratching people's jokes. Painting I got ink all over my body and was complained by the washerwoman. Playing the piano is not as good as playing cotton. Even threading is a problem, and there is no need to talk about embroidery.

This doesn't work, and that doesn't interest me, I can't just sit in the room all day long drinking tea and gossiping with my aunts.Jia Juan had no choice but to use the simplest and least troublesome way to pass the time, that is, taking a nap.Jia Juan has always been able to sleep well, and is used to napping for three or four hours at noon, so that at night, she becomes so excited that she cannot fall asleep.

"Since my wife can't sleep, let's do something with my husband." Shui Fang rubbed his hands, imitating the wretched @wretched look of a local ruffian, taking advantage of Jia Juan.Jia Juan's face was slightly red, and she shyly slapped his hands away, "The baby is still here."

Shui Fang subconsciously lowered his head, the baby was sleeping soundly, his face was wrinkled and looked very funny, he rubbed the center of the baby's raised eyebrows with his thumb, "This child, I don't know what I dreamed about. "While speaking, he squeezed Jia Juan's chest@, "Why is it getting bigger and bigger?"

Probably because of the good nutrition after giving birth, Jia Juan's breasts are getting fuller @ full.After her breasts got bigger, she couldn't wear the old clothes anymore, so she had to rush to make new clothes. For this reason, Yuan Yue and the other maids made jokes several times, which made Jia Juan very embarrassed.

Shuifang came back to Beijing this time for business, and found this change after rolling the sheets with Jia Juan. He felt that Jia Juan was soft, and kneading it was as interesting and tight as rubbing glutinous rice balls, as if he had found a new toy. When only the couple get along alone, they will come to dawdle a few times, which makes Jia Juan feel ashamed and embarrassed.

"I hate it." Jia Juan turned around and patted the baby who was woken up by the water, "Didn't it mean that you can stay in Beijing for a longer time? Why are you leaving the day after tomorrow?" Aunt Ma is about to give birth. The doctor said that Aunt Ma's pregnancy was unstable, and it might not be easy to give birth, which made Jia Juan worry.

Although she didn't like to see Aunt Ma very much, the child in her belly was born by Shui Fang after all, and the blood of the Shui family flowed through her body.For the sake of the child, Jia Juan would not be harsh on Aunt Ma at this juncture.If this child is brought up well in the future, Shui Baobao will also have a right-hand man in the future, won't he?

Therefore, Jia Juan also thought about it. These days, Jia Juan is almost offering up Aunt Ma as a Bodhisattva, but all the food and drink are sent to Aunt Ma's room, and people are guarded at Aunt Ma's room day and night. Here, I'm afraid that something bad or bad will happen to her accidentally.

I thought that when Shuifang came back this time, he could see Aunt Ma’s child was born. Who knows, Lin Ruhai from Yangzhou sent someone to send a letter in his own hand. After reading the letter, Shuifang looked serious and decided to return to Yangzhou in advance the day after tomorrow. .

"I thought that Yangzhou would stop for a while after catching a few people in their early years. But I never expected that some people couldn't sit still. Actually, during the time when I returned to Beijing, I openly sent a dozen Murder and assassinate Lin Ruhai." Shui Fang regretted it, and should have sent more people to protect the Lin family.

Jia Juan hurriedly asked, "These villains are too rampant, even the court officials dared to assassinate. It can be seen that the people behind this are not young, you must be careful when you go back this time, and you must not confront them head-on. Otherwise, you will stay All the guards in the mansion were brought there. Wending Hou's mansion is at the foot of the emperor, so I don't think they dare to mess around. Moreover, the people living around here are not ordinary people. Even if they want to send someone to sneak attack, they will have some scruples of."

"These vicious and reckless people can break into anywhere, madam, don't take it lightly, let them stay in the house, so that you can feel at ease outside." Shui Fang waved his hand, as if thinking of something, his eyes lit up, "Madam, please rest assured, the emperor has already made preparations, but the current situation has changed, and a long-term plan is needed. Hehe, although the water in Yangzhou is bottomless, it will not disturb the real dragon of the emperor." Jia The corner of Juan's mouth twitched, Ganqing Shuifang is still a loyal supporter and die-hard fan of the current Holy Majesty.

Before Shui Fang returned to Beijing, he sent people to secretly protect Lin Ruhai. Unexpectedly, the mastermind behind the scenes was so rampant that he dared to assassinate Lin Ruhai in the yamen in broad daylight.Fortunately, the emperor also placed experts beside Lin Ruhai to take down all the assassins.

It's a pity that these assassins committed suicide by biting their tongues after being captured. The deceased did not have any objects to prove their identity, so the clues were cut off.Although it is possible to guess who sent the assassin, but because there is no evidence, there is no way to catch the murderer behind the scenes.

This time, Lin Ruhai asked Shuifang to go back in a hurry, but it was because of another matter.The people behind the scenes not only sent assassins to assassinate Lin Ruhai, but also bought two female assassins who knew kung fu to sneak into the Lin family as maids.Taking advantage of the chaos in front of the yamen, two female killers sneaked into Lin Jiashi's yard, intending to kidnap Lin Jiashi.

The two female killers seemed to be in no one's land, holding kitchen knives and broke into the inner courtyard, all the maids in the courtyard turned pale and ran around.Female murderers don't kill innocent people indiscriminately, they only identify Lin Jiashi.Jin'er and Yin'er, Lin Jiashi's close maids, were loyal, they stood in front of Lin Jiashi and took the knife for Lin Jiashi.

Lin Jiashi had a woman who knew martial arts by her side, but Lin Jiashi sent her to the street to buy Raoshizi's jujube cake.There is no one available at critical times.Lin Jiashi stood in the courtyard with her big belly. After all, she was a child of an aristocratic family who had seen the world. Although her face was pale from fright, she still maintained the demeanor of the mistress, without a trace of begging for mercy.

Just when the female killer's hand was about to touch Lin Jiashi, Lin Jiashi suddenly felt a dull pain in her stomach, and cold sweat dripped from her forehead. She sat down on the ground along the pillar and yelled for pain.A sharp-eyed woman pointed at the hem of Lin Jiashi's skirt and exclaimed, "Blood, it's blood. It's not good, Madam may have a miscarriage."

Her voice stopped the busy servants in the courtyard, and the guards who came to the door and the young and strong servants in the mansion were also dumbfounded. They stood at the door not knowing whether to invite the doctor or go first Catch the assassin.The captain of the guards sent someone to report to Mr. Lin, and at the same time drew his sword and stepped into the courtyard to protect the lord.

Seeing someone coming, the female murderer flew out a sleeve arrow and shot @穿卫卫长阴头. The guards and servants died before seeing the captain’s move. Knowing how powerful the female killer was, they dared not even see the wife in their hands. I acted rashly.

Lin Fu, the housekeeper of the Lin family, is already an old man with gray hair. His family has worked in the Lin family for generations, and Lin Ruhai respects him very much.Lin Fu tremblingly followed the people to the main courtyard, his eyes turned black and he almost fainted when he saw his wife's miserable condition, his son Lin Zhong hurriedly supported his father.

It was the first time that the female murderer encountered such a situation, and the two women looked at each other blankly, as if hesitating whether to tie him up or kill him on the spot to save trouble.Later, one of the purple-clothed female killers waved the kitchen knife a few times in the air, and the meaning was obvious. The other red-clothed female killer laughed sideways, and walked up to Lin Jia with the kitchen knife.

The hearts of all the people present were in their throats, and they couldn't bear to see the lady's head in different parts and all closed their eyes.At this moment, Lin Jiashi was in so much pain that she was dying, she knew in her heart that she might not be able to keep the baby again, her face was full of sadness, and all hope was lost, she just wanted to die clean.The red female killer's kitchen knife landed on Lin Jiashi's neck, drawing a bloodstain, and then wiped the blood off the kitchen knife with her tongue.

There was a joyful expression on her face, as if she was enjoying this tormenting process, and she was about to make another slash, but the murderous woman in purple raised her hand to stop it.It seems that the red-clothed female murderer listened to the purple-clothed female murderer very much, and he couldn't get enough of it. He added a kitchen knife that had no blood on it, and slashed at Lin Jiashi's neck while smiling slyly.

Lin Fu didn't know where the strength came from, so he knocked the red-clothed female killer away with all his strength, stretched his hands around the red-clothed female murderer's waist, and shouted, "Madam, go, madam, go."

The red-clothed female killer was suddenly hugged by someone, which ruined the good thing. Seeing that she was an old guy looking for death, she kicked Lin Fu to the gate of the courtyard.Lin Fu died after spitting out a mouthful of blood. Lin Zhong hugged his father's body and wept loudly there. One of Lin Fu's little grandsons, Lin Bao, knelt on the ground and wiped his tears.

Brother Lin cried and threw himself into Lin Jiashi's arms, with tears on his face, pointing at the killer angrily, "Why did you kill my mother? I want my father to catch you." Brother Lin and Lin Bao was playing on the rockery behind the garden, Lin Geer felt hungry, and when he turned around, the maid and mother-in-law who had been following behind disappeared, so he had to hold hands and go back to get some snacks by himself.As soon as he squeezed into the crowd, he saw the scene of Lord Lin Fu being kicked to death.

Because everyone in the yard was focused on the killer, no one noticed that the young master was here.Lin Ge'er appeared out of nowhere, causing the people present to gasp. Lin Jiashi heard Lin Ge'er's voice, hugged Lin Ge'er tightly, comforted Lin Ge'er, and stared at the killer's face vigilantly. Every move.

The purple-clothed murderer looked at Lin Ge'er thoughtfully, pointed at Lin Ge'er and waved his hand, and the woman in red walked forward knowingly. "No, I beg you, don't hurt my son." Lin Jiashi cried and said, Lin Geer knew he was afraid, and when he saw his mother crying, he also cried loudly.

The red-clothed murderer got impatient after being quarreled by their wives, and stretched out his hand to lift Brother Lin out of Lin Jiashi's arms. After looking him up and down, he said in a choked voice, "Why are you so skinny? You eat only a few taels of meat and only a few bones. .” The voice was hoarse like a man.

As soon as the words fell, Lin Jiashi was frightened and lost too much blood and passed out.Lin Ge'er's short legs were dangling in the air, and his small body was struggling non-stop, crying for his father and mother, which made everyone feel anxious.At this time, hurried footsteps came from behind, and the crowd was agitated and consciously parted to make way.It turned out that Lin Ruhai was here.

As soon as a group of assassins were dealt with in the yamen, someone came to report that the backyard had entered the backyard.Lin Ruhai hurried back to the inner house with his people, and encountered another group of killers on the way. This group of murderers was more ruthless than the previous assassins. It took several people to capture the killer.

Only at this time did Lin Ruhai realize that he had been tricked by the enemy, and he deliberately sent people to pester her so that the female murderer could succeed smoothly.Seeing Brother Lin being held in the hands of the female murderer, Lin Ruhai wished he could step forward and replace his son.Seeing Lin Ruhai, the female killer in purple knew that the people in front had already been defeated, "It's not suitable to stay here for long, you go first." The voice was also low.

The female killer in red nodded and carried Lin Geer on her shoulders and jumped up the wall. Lin Ruhai's guards followed, and the two became entangled. If he dared to get closer, he was afraid that he would accidentally hurt the young master of the Lin family.

Below, the female killer in purple was surrounded by the guards and couldn't get away for a while, she raised her head and said to Hong Yi, "Leave him to the master, you don't have to worry about me." The guard was about to jump off the wall.Suddenly, a black-faced woman appeared on the roof.

She pierced the heart of the killer in red with a sword, and snatched Brother Lin from her. The killer in red rolled from the wall to the middle of the yard, and died with his head sideways.Lin Ruhai hurriedly jumped down below, and quickly sent someone to chase after him.When the purple-clothed murderer saw that the red-clothed murderer was stabbed to death by a sword before he could make a move, he immediately lost his position and was quickly taken down.

Lin Ruhai already had experience, and immediately had someone open her mouth, take out the hidden poison from between her teeth, and have someone pick her tendons.Ziyi's murder was like losing a rooster and being tied up and taken away for interrogation.

This assassination incident severely damaged the vitality of the Lin family. The fetus in Lin Jia's miscarriage was gone, and Brother Lin was taken away by someone of unknown origin.The old loyal servant Lin Fu, the protector, died, and Lin Jia's two maids, Jin'er and Yin'er, were seriously injured and would not be able to get up for a while.

Lin Ruhai stayed by his unconscious wife's side, worried that something bad would happen to his son, and his hair turned gray overnight.The Lin family's encounter with the assassin caused a lot of noise, so it didn't take long for the whole city to know about it.

Some sympathized, some speculated, some doubted, some pretended to visit from above, some gloated, some watched jokes, and they all watched the Lin family's every move by coincidence.The situation in Yangzhou's officialdom is changing, the torrent is undercurrent, and all kinds of monsters and snakes appear one after another. Lin Ruhai is dragged down by personal affairs and cannot deal with these people alone.
