Youwei, the heir of the Red Chamber

After Jia Rong left the gate of Ningguo Mansion, she came to Rongguo Mansion in the west, planning to discuss with Jia Lian about her training in the army.Now that Jia Zhen is gone, the imperial decree to inherit the title is probably coming soon. Although he can inherit the title now, he deeply feels that he is not capable of inheriting such a great lintel, so he wants to accept Jia Lian's previous suggestion and go to the army for training. Like the ancestors, he started his career with martial arts.

After entering the Rongguo Mansion, I realized that Jia Lian had gone out.

"Uncle Lian went out so early?" Jia Rong was a little surprised.

Liu'er smiled and said, "I went out early, I didn't even have breakfast."

In such a hurry?Jia Rong was a little surprised, and then thought that Jia Lian must be busy now that he is in a high position.

"If Uncle Lian comes back, send someone to report to Ningguo Mansion."

"Yes, Uncle Rong." Liu'er quickly replied respectfully.Nodding and bowing to send Jia Rong away, Liu'er straightened up and rubbed his head, Master went out last night, where did he go?

It is true that Jia Lian went out at night, and he left in a hurry, even wearing ordinary clothes.

At this time, he was sitting beside Zhongshun's bed, looking at Zhongshun who was pale and sweaty on his forehead, his eyes were dark and turbulent.There is guilt and helplessness.

He took off the silver needle from the acupuncture point and put it away slowly. His expression was very stable, completely ignoring the long sword on his neck.

Liu Xia couldn't bear it any longer, and stared at Jia Lian coldly, "Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?"

"I don't think you're capable of that."

Reaching out with a handkerchief, he wiped Zhongshun's sweat gently and meticulously.Looking at his movements, Liu Xia froze slightly, then gritted his teeth and took the sword down. "As long as the master speaks, I will fight to the death and take your life."

"Who gave you the courage." The voice was weak, but firm.It was Zhong Shun who had just opened his eyes. Although he was talking to Liu Xia, his eyes were fixed on Jia Lian.

Seeing the gentle look in Jia Lian's eyes, he felt slightly depressed, and turned his head, "Liu Xia, you step back first."

Liu Xia worried: "Master, he wants to kill you!"

"Back off!" The voice could not be refuted.

"No." He jumped out of the window with a leap.

There were only two people left in the room, and it was quiet, neither of them spoke.

Jia Lian looked at him with dark eyes, and then sighed helplessly for a moment. "You do not trust me."

Zhongshun tilted his head, and said with a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "Didn't you almost die in order to gain the trust of this king? I didn't expect this king to be so important to you, hehehe."

"Those people have been with me for a day or two, haven't they?" Jia Lian looked at Zhongshun quietly, and when he saw a trace of discomfort on his face, he said, "From the day I was entrusted, Follow me. My lord, is this your trust?"

When Zhongshun heard this, he was surprised, frowned and said, "You, you know?"

"The dark ones are hidden in the invisible. I admit that the prince's dark ones are all outstanding, but it is not easy to hide them from humble ministers." When he was the son of the regent prince, the dark ones he brought out were called Jingwei. .

Zhongshun's face was a little flustered, "You, then why do you still talk to Wang Ziteng like that?"

Jia Lian also had a trace of ridicule in his eyes, "Wang Ziteng's hidden guards are probably no less than those around Weichen. If Weichen is talking carefully, isn't the dark line that the prince has laid down for so many years a failure?"

"Jia Lian." The panic in Zhongshun's eyes became more and more serious, he stretched out his hand to hold Jia Lian's hand, "You, did you do it on purpose? You lied to him with all the things you said? You didn't lie to me, did you?" ?”

"Does the lord care?"

"Of course I care. Jia Lian, please don't call me prince, I, I'm not used to it." The two were so close before, but now they suddenly became so unfamiliar, which made him feel empty, and always felt that he was about to lose something.He held Jia Lian's palm tightly, but he felt that there was no response at all. "Jia Lian..."

"Hey..." Jia Lian finally sighed deeply, the helplessness in his eyes became more and more intense, and when he closed his eyes and opened them again, the cloud was calm and breezy again.

"Why did you do that? I thought we had already made up our minds." He asked calmly, but it made Zhongshun even more frightened.

Zhongshun didn't dare to look him in the eyes, so he had to tilt his head to look at the wall inside, "I... am Brother Huang. He still can't trust you."

Jia Lian twitched the corners of his mouth, as if he wanted to laugh, but couldn't, but his eyes were full of frost.

Withdrawing his palm from Zhongshun's hand, ignoring the sweat stains on it, he directly picked up the silver needle box next to him and stood up.

"Where are you going?" Zhongshun was really anxious this time, and stretched out his hand to grab Jia Lian's robe. "I, I..." wanted to explain, but couldn't say a word.At this moment, he really regretted his infirmity. When the emperor brother mentioned this matter, he should firmly defend Jia Lian instead of sending someone to monitor him according to the emperor's wishes.

Jia Lian didn't look back, but just replied indifferently: "The prince's secret guards can be kept by my side all the time, and I won't say much. As for the prince, please take care of yourself. I can help him once, but I can't help him the second time." Twice." As he spoke, he strode out, and brought out the foot of the robe in Zhongshun's hand.

"Jia Lian, don't leave, cough, cough, cough." Zhongshun's voice came from behind.Jia Lian paused for a moment, then strode forward again and walked out the door.

Everyone in the palace knew Jia Lian, and no one paid any attention to him when he went out all the way.After leaving the gate, Lin Tuo had already got a carriage and was waiting outside. Seeing Jia Lian coming out, he hurriedly got out of the car and stood there, "My lord, you have come out."

"En." Jia Lian responded lightly, and got into the car.

Lin Tuo didn't dare to speak when he saw his serious face, so he drove the carriage after getting in the carriage.

The car was driving on the Qingshi Road, making a rattling sound.Jia Lian leaned against the carriage, his eyes were tightly closed, his hands were tightly grasped, and his knuckles were white.

After a long time, he let go of his hand and sighed deeply.It really broke this time.Originally, the two of them shouldn't have started. His motives were not pure, and Zhongshun didn't fully trust him.One chased and the other hid, and the momentary emotion led to this evil relationship.It's better to take advantage of this break now, so as to avoid many worries in the future.Even though he was thinking so, his heart was throbbing with pain.He stretched out his hand to cover his heart, but felt that it was still being torn violently, and a puff of sourness also surged out.

He couldn't help laughing at himself, trapped by love?I didn't expect that I would have today, it's really ridiculous!

"My lord, where are you going?" Lin Tuo walked halfway, and just now he forgot where Jia Lian had not told him to go, so he hurriedly slowed down and asked inside.

Jia Lian opened his eyes, tiredness appeared in his eyes, he narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a while, and then said: "Go to Longnan."

Longnan is not far from the capital, after passing Jinling City is the great city of Xiangcheng in Longnan.Jia Lian's maternal grandmother Xu Li was from the Li family in Xiangcheng, Longnan.

Mrs. Li is getting old and homesick. In addition, her daughter left early and her grandson is not around, so her mind is inevitably depressed.After feeling a little uncomfortable, I missed my hometown more and more.Xu Ru was considerate of his old wife, so he simply asked for leave and took his wife back to his hometown to recuperate.

It is said that they have returned to their hometown, but the two have never lived in Li's house.Xu Ru built a courtyard near Li's house, which was not very luxurious, but very quiet.Only an old couple is responsible for cleaning on weekdays.When Xu Ru and his wife came back this time, they also brought the old lady's personal nanny Baozhu, as well as a few young and clever little girls.

On weekdays, the old lady went out to visit relatives and friends, and her life was relaxed.Some of her old sisters from back then have already gone, and the rest are doing well, full of children and grandchildren.After all, she and Xu Ru were the only ones who were the most unlucky, and there was only one daughter under her knees, and she died early. The neglect under her knees made her take extra care of the grandchildren of her old sisters.

She walks a lot on weekdays, and her body is much better.Xu Ru didn't accompany him every day. He didn't like to chat with the old lady, and he couldn't chat with people from aristocratic families. He read books in his small yard with three acres of land every day. Writing and writing is also very leisurely.

When the news of his grandson Jia Lian's victory reached Longnan, the small courtyard of the Xu family was really lively.Some came for Xu Ru, while others came for Jia Lian.

After making a fuss for a while, Xu Ru simply closed the door to prevent anyone from coming in.

The old lady was held back for a while, and she was annoyed. She yelled that she was going to go out. After washing up early in the morning, she ran to the yard and yelled at Xu Ru, who was practicing boxing, "Huh, I'm getting old, fight!" It’s like punching cotton, and you’re ashamed to practice behind closed doors all day, with your little things, you will never be my grandson’s opponent in this life.”

Thinking of her grandson Jia Lian, she felt resentful towards Xu Ru, "You old man, if you hadn't speculated about my return all day long, how could I miss my grandson's return to Beijing. Now that the child has been back for so long, I I haven't seen each other before, and I don't know if I can see them again.

She spoke miserably, with a sad look on her face, which made Xu Ru's heart soften.He hurriedly closed his fist, and ran over to give the old lady some relief, "Oh ma'am, can he still run there? How about taking you back for my husband when you recover in a few days?"

"What's wrong with me, you old man, you've been cursing me for being ill all day long, do you want me to die earlier so that you can take another beautiful wife and beautiful concubine?"

Xu Ru had a headache. Since the old lady recovered from her illness this time, she has become a little hypocritical, especially after returning to her hometown, chatting with those old ladies, seeing her family full of children and grandchildren, and talking about how many beautiful women her husband married. Those who have wives and concubines began to doubt his thoughts.He rubbed his head, "Ma'am, you have been thinking about your husband for so many years, and you still don't understand?"

The old lady blushed, and felt that the old man had been honest all these years. Although she thought so, she still said a few cold words, "Hmph, who knows if you will be late. The Wang Hui family The old man knows the age of destiny now, and he even begged for Aunt Fang."

"..."

Xu Ru felt that the gentleness and delicacy of the old lady in her youth had all disappeared with age, and the older she got, the more she showed her true nature.

He wiped the cold sweat that came out of his forehead, and swore to the sky: "Okay, I promise you, if I have other thoughts, I will make Xu Ru feel bad..."

"Bah." The old lady slapped Xu Ru on the arm, "You have a good idea, and you want to die earlier than me, so that I will be alone in my old age. You go down to find those young ghosts by yourself, right?" she said. As he spoke, his eyes were also red.

Xu Ru was speechless, he put his arms around the old lady's shoulders, and comforted him: "Madam, don't worry, my husband won't abandon you." How could he not know that the old lady was becoming more and more insecure? feeling.After she had nothing to do to give birth to her daughter, she began to blame herself, and as she got older, she began to lose confidence.Although he didn't show it on weekdays, there was something hidden in his heart.Now this illness has made her vent.Xu Ru felt that his wife had never lived a good life with him.When I was young, I suffered hardships with myself, when I was middle-aged, my only child died, and in my later years, I realized that I was lonely under my knees.He knew that his wife was worried that even if he didn't want her anymore, she was really alone.

"Ma'am, don't worry, everyone is gone, and there is still a husband. We have finished this life, and we will be together in the next life. You must not dislike me."

"Old man, I miss my grandson, woo woo..." She was really afraid of being alone, she was really afraid in this life.

"Okay, I'll pack up my things and take you back to the capital tomorrow, and let the brat move in and stay with us."

"Yes." The old lady nodded.

When Baozhu hurried into the yard, she happened to meet two people who were lying crookedly, their faces were a little embarrassed, "Hehe, the servant didn't see anything."

"..." Xu Ru felt uncomfortable, this fat lady was really at odds with him for the rest of his life.The old lady wiped her tears shyly, "Bao Zhu, why are you so flustered?"

"Oh—" Baozhu yelled, "Oh, I almost forgot to mention it, ma'am, Young Master Sun is here."

"Who are you talking about?" the old lady asked in disbelief.

Baozhu's face beamed with joy, "It's Miss Hanzhang's Young Master Sun."

The old lady was overjoyed when she heard the words, she turned her head and pulled Xu Ru happily and said, "Old man, grandson is here to see us."

The corner of Xu Ru's mouth twitched, "Hmph, the brat has a bit of a conscience." There was an uncomfortable expression on his face, but his eyes were full of kindness and joy.

The author has something to say: The son of the world is now in a very difficult stage, with love and resentment in his heart, stubbornness for the past life, and nostalgia for the present life.
