Survive in the world of Red Mansions

As soon as he got in the Lin family's car, Lin Rui's face darkened. Lin Hai talked to him, but he didn't make a sound. After returning to the Lin Mansion, he went to the back yard and began to vent his anger.

"Father, just now the old lady asked me to stay, why did you almost agree? I sat there and wanted to leave a long time ago. It was because I had to wait for you that I didn't leave early!"

"Didn't I think that it would be difficult for you to come to the capital this time? You follow me every day, and you don't have a chance to play. I will enter the palace early tomorrow morning. I may have to stay in the palace for a day. You are the only one left at home. I'm afraid you'll be bored. It doesn't matter if you miss a day of reading, your progress is already much faster than others. Although I also know that you don't like Jia Mu very much, you don't have to stay with her all the time. Are there any other people, just so you can play with other people more, besides, it’s not good to give you a chance to get in close contact with a few beauties? Son, I don’t understand why you are so angry? "

Speaking of the latter, Lin Hai himself laughed.

"It's not that I don't want to go out to play. Daddy, do you know that as soon as you left before the luncheon, that Jia Baoyu took my hand and asked me, 'Cousin, do you have jade?' I I read it right, and every time I asked questions later, I always looked at me bewitched.

Is Jia Baoyu [-]th or [-]th this year, isn't this ancient man too precocious?I tried my best not to slap him in the face, shit, what?The old lady was still watching with a smile, saying that cousins ​​just want to get closer.

This old lady is also a mature person, can't you see what Jia Baoyu's eyes mean, this kid is a pervert!If the old lady knew about Jia Baoyu's virtues and kept him with these girls, wouldn't that be a disaster?It's a good thing Daiyu didn't come here, not to mention that there are different seats for men and women at the age of seven, even if you don't need to be so particular about the law, you should be more or less taboo, even in our place, half-grown boys like Jia Baoyu look at people bewitchingly. , no matter whether you are looking at a man or a woman, it is the rhythm of fighting. "

Lin Rui became more and more excited as he spoke, and Lin Hai's expression turned cold when he heard the back.

"In the future, they will be far away. In the eyes of Jia's mother, Jia Baoyu is naturally good. How could she think of her sweetheart in this way? Even if there is something wrong with this kid, it's not him. It's his fault, it's someone else who led him into trouble, and it's also someone else's fault!

Well, don't be angry, you know this kid is virtuous, and he will go to Beijing in the future, so you and Daiyu don't go to Jia's mansion.By the way, he asked you if you have a jade queen, did you drop his piece of jade later? "

"I didn't throw any jade today. When I was watching Dream of the Red Chamber, Jia Baoyu scolded that piece of jade, what a rarity, and he didn't want it. But now I see that Jia Baoyu is very proud of his piece of broken jade that came out of the womb. As soon as he asked if there was any jade, I said there were a lot, and he immediately became a little embarrassed, and it was not in vain that I dressed like a nouveau riche today, it seems that dressing like this is still useful.

Dad, aren't you curious about Wang Xifeng? Later, when he came over, he was dressed so blindingly that he was slightly worse than Jia Baoyu.When I was having dinner today, I was seated on the first seat to the left of Jia's mother, Xue Baochai sat next to me, Jia Baoyu was on the right of Jia's mother, and Shi Xiangyun was next to Jia Baoyu.

Father did not agree to the old lady's marriage proposal. It seems that although the old lady on Daiyu's side has not let go, Shi Xiangyun is already on the side as a substitute, and there is Xue Baochai, Mrs. Wang's favorite, beside her.It's okay so far. In a year or two, when Jia Baoyu is about to get engaged, there will be a good show to watch.Dad, you said that Jia Baoyu is not a wonderful character, except for his good-looking face, other advantages are really unflattering. What do those people think of him?

Forget it, let's not talk about it, Dad, you went to the front later, what do you think of the other men in the Jia family, are they really that useless? "

"When the banquet was held later, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong from Ningguo Mansion also came over. The men of the Jia family are really a bunch of dudes. But Jia Zheng among them is a little different. It's hard to say, I think he looks down on those men from Ningrong and Rongfu, and I don't know whether he is really too polite, doesn't know how to adapt, or is just prudish.

The Jia family didn't set their position right. If they didn't meddle in things that shouldn't be meddled, and the whole family is honest, at least they can guarantee the prosperity of one or two generations.The emperor really has no interest in taking care of a noble family that does not cause trouble, but it is a pity that he has to seek his own death!He wanted to benefit from the success of the dragon and invest in both sides, but unfortunately he didn't get his wish.Now that the fourth prince is enthroned, there is Jia Yuanchun, just watch, the Jia family will not stop. "

"Indeed, if the two generations of Jia's family are honest and honest, it is not impossible to raise Jia Lan's generation well. Unfortunately, Jia Lan, as the fourth generation in the mansion, today From what I saw, I knew that he was not taken seriously at ordinary times, the child of how old was sitting there, he was too well-behaved, even Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang ignored him.

When I was eating today, although I looked at the rules when I sat in the seat, I was very reserved.I asked him about the contents of the Four Books. Although he didn't understand many of them, he could recite a lot of them. Li Wan should be teaching him.It's not that the Jia family can't afford this little money. It's rare that a descendant is willing to make progress. How important is it to hire a husband for him? "

"Neither the old lady of the Jia family nor Mrs. Wang would like to see Jia Lan suppressing Jia Baoyu, so why would they be willing to hire him a husband alone, or just go to free school for nothing.

Well, I'm in a better mood. I'll go out later. I've made appointments for a few years. I should be back later. After you have dinner, go to bed early. "

Lin Hai talked with Lin Rui for a while, and seeing that Lin Rui finally calmed down, he was relieved and prepared to go out for a few appointments in the same year.

"Come back later? Dad, are you meeting in a brothel?"

"What brothel? It's just to invite a few people from the same year to get together in a restaurant. We haven't seen each other for such a long time, so we can get in touch with each other."

"Father, drink less, and let Lin An, who followed out, pay more attention."

"I have a sense of proportion, stay at home well, and I'm going out."

Early the next morning, Lin Hai ate a few dumplings, drank a small bowl of ginseng soup, and didn't eat any more.

Lin Rui saw that his father ate so little, and persuaded him: "Father, today the emperor's throne and the new emperor's ascension to the throne, the whole process is finished, and I don't know when it will be over. Daddy, if you don't eat more, how can you bear it by then?" ?”

"I can't eat anymore. It's because the whole ceremony takes a long time, so I don't dare to eat too much. When the ceremony is held, you can't walk away and let you go to the toilet. It's better to be hungry than to make a fool of yourself. Well, no matter how hungry you are, It will only take a long time, just bear with it, don't worry. Today you are alone in the mansion, if you want to go out for a stroll, remember to bring some people with you."

"I see, father, it's time for you to go out. There must be a lot of people entering the palace today when the new emperor ascends the throne. It's not too crowded when you arrive near the Forbidden City. It's safer to leave early."

"Take care!"

"……"No return on a good deed!

This time, the new emperor's enthronement ceremony was called the ceremony of granting and accepting because the throne was handed down from the new emperor's father, Emperor Kangwen, to the next emperor.Unlike the previous generation of new emperors who ascended the throne, the first emperor was newly mourned. This must always be considered during the enthronement ceremony. The ceremony is more grand, solemn and luxurious.This time, because it was a ceremony of giving and receiving, the Ministry of Rituals gave the ceremony a somewhat celebratory atmosphere while taking into account the grand, solemn and luxurious atmosphere.

Lin Hai's ranking today is not very high, but it's not too bad either. It's almost in the middle.

Participated in this grand ceremony, really can only be described as a grand ceremony, it is said that the new emperor asked to streamline the ceremony, compared with what I saw on TV and movies before, I can only say that the ones that were filmed are fake or fake , Compared with the scene here, it is really weak!

During the whole award ceremony, Lin Hai didn't know how other people felt, but for Lin Hai himself, there was only one word: Tired!Bowing, worshiping, worshiping, flat body, wat, bowing, kneeling, and getting up again, I really kowtowed too many times. At the beginning, Lin Hai still had the leisure to count, but later the number of kneelings increased, and there was no time. After thinking about it, I just followed the actions of the person in front of me.

The whole ceremony started at the time of Mao and was completed. It took almost 3 hours. Lin Hai was still in good condition. Even though he was injured at the end of last year, after the wound healed, he resumed his exercise. Just like that, he was exhausted.What's more, some other civil servants, especially some elderly civil servants, in the second half of the ceremony, their faces turned pale and blue, and their whole body was on the verge of collapse. They were afraid that they would faint because of the new emperor's enthronement ceremony. In the past, being charged with a disrespectful crime not only punished themselves, but also affected their family members. These officials really relied on their strong self-control to hold on.

When the ceremony was over, many veterans walked out of the palace with the help of others.Lin Hai himself got into his sedan chair as soon as he left the palace, without saying a word, drank a few sips of water, ate a few pieces of snacks, just leaned there and didn't want to move.

As soon as Lin Hai returned to the mansion, the people below were busy putting the food on the table, but it might be that they had stood for too long, and they were exhausted, so they really had no appetite. After eating a little, they were ready to go to rest .

"Father, tell me what the emperor's enthronement ceremony is like today!"

"I'm going to rest, dear son, I'll wait until I wake up to talk about big things, I'm going to sleep now, don't disturb me!"

After resting all night, Lin Hai didn't feel fully recovered until he had breakfast the next day.

"Father, you've been wearing an official uniform since you woke up this morning. Are you going to enter the palace today?" Lin Rui asked curiously when he saw Lin Hai wearing a formal official uniform after training.

"Well, today is the first grand court meeting for the new emperor. Those of us who have returned to the capital to congratulate us will also participate. After it is over, we can probably leave the capital and go back to our respective homes. It's hard to come to the capital, you don't want to go out Shopping? By the way, buy something for Daiyu."

"I'm not interested, let's see."

More than half of the time before the entire court meeting was spent talking nonsense, and finally announced a few orders. Do not change the reign name, continue to use the emperor's reign name, reduce taxes and so on.Probably because he was afraid that too many actions would cause dissatisfaction with the emperor, so there were basically no changes to the officials of the cabinet and the six ministries, but these basically had nothing to do with Lin Hai. It's Yangzhou.

When Lin Hai returned to Lin Mansion, just as he was about to change his official uniform, Lin An's voice came from outside.

"My lord, the servants in the palace came over and the emperor ordered you to enter the palace, my lord!"
