Jia Lian of the Red Chamber

Everyone laughed for a long time before it stopped.

For a while, everyone continued to chat.

Feng Ziying shared some news that made Jia Lian uncomfortable: "You know, Shi Guangzhu's son Shi Keming is going to fill in the guard camp. The third-class guard is Shi Kelang's vacancy."

Jia Lian was stunned: "Didn't it be rejected by King Xi, and it will be postponed until the end of the year? Why come to fill the vacancy again?"

Feng Ziying nodded: "Hey, you don't know that, this Shi Keming was the one who applied for the bodyguard exam with us last year, but at that time he was injured because of his arm during the sword competition, so the spot fell to Shi Kelang. Now half a year has passed, and Shi Kelang has been abolished, but he is healed. His grandfather Shu Guogong went to the palace to meet the Supreme Emperor a few days ago. Speaking of this, it is said that the Supreme Emperor felt sorry for Shan Guogong because of what happened to Princess Fuqing back then. , Only then did he speak, asking Shi Keming to make up for it, let alone King Xi dare not object, even His Majesty dare not make a sound!"

Wei Ruolan froze for a moment: "But don't worry, Shi Keming and Shi Kelang won't deal with each other. Over the years, Shi Keming relied on his mother, Princess Fuqing, to torture Shi Keming's brothers wantonly. When his arm was injured, Shi Kelang seemed to be the one The shadow of your brother-in-law, as well as your brother-in-law, are actually broken in the hands of this Shi Kelang."

Jia Lian frowned: "Why did Gong Shan enter the palace? Didn't the Supreme Emperor stop seeing his old ministers these years?"

Feng Ziying smiled and said: "I really know this, it's Shi Guangliu who caused the trouble, he is the son of the prince's concubine, Shi Guangzhu's concubine brother, he was smart and smart since he was a child, he was loved by the Duke of Shan, and he was as beautiful as he was when he was a child." As the heir of Shi Guangzhu, Lord Shan Guo even personally applied for the seat of the Imperial Academy for him, which was truly glorious. After Shi Guangzhu's father died, Shi Guangliu jumped up and down, wanting to compete for the position of the son, Duke Shan Guo became alert , Afraid of the tragedy of brothers looking at the wall, they began to suppress Shi Guangliu, and quickly confirmed Shi Guangzhu's position as the eldest son."

Jia Lian nodded: "This duke of the state is finally not confused."

Feng Ziying sneered: "It's a pity that he awakened late. Shi Guangliu was spoiled by him, so how could he bear this blow? In a fit of anger, he took refuge in the King of Zhongyi County, and then recruited a son-in-law. At the time, the status of Princess Fuqing was embarrassing, and ordinary people were not happy. The Duke was not happy, but the Supreme Emperor personally recruited Duke Shan to enter the palace to persuade him, and Duke Shan finally agreed to the marriage. Not wanting the King of Zhongyi County to be a moth again, he secretly pressured Duke Shan to give away half of his family wealth As a dowry gift for Princess Fuqing, Duke Shan had no choice but to agree. Shi Guangzhu was not convinced, and the two brothers almost went to the yamen, but was finally subdued by Duke Shan. Targeting everywhere is tantamount to a rupture.”

Feng Ziying patted Jia Lian: "So, you don't have to worry!"

But Jia Lian shook his head: "If Zidong provokes me, and I have no choice but to beat Zidong, will you help me or him?"

Feng Zidong scoffed: "How dare my brother not help me? My father can beat him to death!"

Everyone was silent, this group of people said that they all had hatred against Shi Kelang, that is to say, against the entire Shanguo Duke's Mansion.No matter what Shi Keming's thoughts are, he is not easy to get along with!

Jia Rong broke the silence: "What are you afraid of, we are two fathers, can he do it alone?"

Wei Ruolan smiled and said: "That's right, a group of us are afraid that he will fail alone? If he dares to show his teeth, kill him!"

Feng Ziying nodded: "Exactly, if the soldiers come to block, if he is smart, he should be alone and not mix with Shi Kelang. After all, the king of Zhongyi County is in decline now, and there is no good fruit to eat by getting close to him."

Hearing this, Jia Lian couldn't help but take a few more glances at Feng Ziying and Wei Ruolan. He remembered that in the previous life, Feng Jiawei's family was rejected by His Majesty because of their defeat in the army.Although he is no longer the prince and grandson, the family has been passed on.

The Wei family was in a much worse situation, because the Wei family was the main force in the battle, and the Feng family just failed to rescue them.General Wei and his eldest son, Wei Ruosong, died in battle, and he was charged with underestimating the enemy and taking the lead to command incompetently. In the end, Wei's family was confiscated, the men were allotted, and the female relatives were sold by the officials. Xiangyun was also sold by the officials as a boat prostitute.

Thinking about this, Jia Lian's dislike for the present has increased. He puts more emphasis on literature than military, and when he loses in the army, he takes revenge on the generals' family members, whatever.

If one day, let him taste it for himself, that would be refreshing.

This is a taboo, even if Feng Wei and Feng Wei are brothers, Jia Lian dare not say it.

After a while of wine and food, the exchange of news was over, and Jia Lian was still on duty, so everyone dispersed.

The next day, when Jia Lian came home from the palace, Sister Feng was not at home. After asking Zhao Liangdong, he found out that Youshi took Qin Keqing to pay his respects to Mother Jia, and Sister Feng went to accompany her.

Ever since Qin Keqing entered the mansion, Youshi saw that she was smart, sweet-mouthed, caring, filial, and acted appropriately. Every time Youshi wanted to order, she had already done it first. Youshi loved her so much that she would not allow her She called herself nephew and daughter-in-law, and directly ordered her to call Jia Zhenyou's father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Jia Qiang was naturally willing. He grew up with Jia Zhen, and Qin Keqing naturally followed the good advice. Since then, the family has lived a very prosperous and harmonious life, so that Jia Rong has no sense of belonging when she returns home.

This Youshi came to the mansion, firstly to visit Jia Mu, and secondly because some pomegranate trees in Ningfu have turned red. It is said that this year's pomegranates are red and big, full of branches and branches. Youshi is overjoyed, and only said It's a good omen, I'm afraid Ningfu will have more people to import this year.

When Mother Jia heard the news, she put aside her troubles for a while and received You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law under pressure.

Sister Feng's breasts are now puffed up, and she got a big basket of red pomegranates, but it was You Shi who heard that pomegranates are good for pregnant women, so he picked some more for her. There are still some on the tree, but there is no such red. It will be ripe in a few days, and I will pick it up and send it."

Qin Keqing supported Sister Feng on the other side, and described for her mother-in-law: "My mother-in-law asked the imperial physician beforehand, and the imperial physician said that pomegranate is the best for pregnant women to have an abortion. She said that it is not only good for the mother, but also for the fetus. Well, when the mother-in-law finds out, she will talk about it every day, and when the pomegranate turns red, she will send it to the second aunt, and when she gives birth to a big fat boy, my eldest aunt will also be glorious!"

Qin Keqing spoke softly, her voice was soft and clear, imitating You Shi's words, so vivid that it made Jia's mother laugh out loud, pointing at Sister Feng, she said, "You are being compared to Brother Qiang and his daughter-in-law!"

Sister Feng smiled on her face, but she was just torn in her heart.In her heart, Sister Feng liked Qin Keqing, who was charming and full of poems and books, but Jia Lian's slip of the tongue made her feel a little offended, and she couldn't be enthusiastic anymore.

When Jia Mu saw that Sister Feng was tired, she didn't answer much. She thought she was tired. Looking at her huge belly, she couldn't help worrying: "What did the imperial doctor say, your belly is only five months old, how can I look at her bigger belly?" Is he still old at seven months?"

Speaking of the baby in her womb, Sister Feng burst into joy. In March, the imperial physician made a clear conclusion that it was a twin, but Jia Lian was a little skeptical, so she told Sister Feng to keep quiet, so as not to make trouble.

Sister Feng thought of the past and was afraid in her heart. Wang Shi was her aunt and even hurt her.At this moment, when he saw Jia Mu asking, he was stunned for a moment: "Oh, the imperial doctor I just saw before said that both of them are good!"

"Two?" As soon as the words came out, the room was silent.

Sister Feng came as soon as she opened her mouth, there was no warning at all, and Ping'er wanted to stop her, but she was powerless at all. Seeing that Sister Feng was still cheerful, she didn't know that she had slipped her mouth, but Ping'er was just worried. How long will it take to be stupid to return to normal?

Jia's mother, Youshi Qin Keqing, including Yuanyang Hupo and other girls all looked at Sister Feng. Youshi now regards Sister Feng as her own sister, full of surprises, and walked around Sister Feng back and forth: "Really, look at this belly, it is really comparable to eight people. It’s been a month, old lady, look, isn’t it?”

Jia Mu's eyes were full of shock, and her heart felt a little chilly. When did Jia Lian and his wife become so estranged from her?She was pregnant with a child and refused to tell herself the truth. Did she do something inhumane?

Mother Jia felt insulted and contemptuous, and for a while, blue veins burst out on her forehead: "Feng..." But the mandarin duck behind her grabbed the sleeve of her sleeve, stretched out two fingers silently, and whispered: "Old lady, you are the one who saved me!" she!"

Jia Mu's mouth was sawed off immediately, and she opened her mouth a few times before making a sound: "Feng girl, this is such a happy event, but have you sent a letter to your wife?"

Facing Jia Mu, Sister Feng still felt a little guilty. Hearing that Jia Mu didn't blame her, Sister Feng breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, "No, it's just because the imperial doctor said that twins are dangerous, and Lian'er said that she was afraid of scaring the elders, so I did it." ... I also ask the old lady to forgive me, it's because we, the juniors, didn't think carefully."

Sister Feng was willing to redeem each other's affection, and Mother Jia finally felt a little better, and said with a smile: "This is your filial piety, but how do you know that the elders would rather be afraid than enjoy it?"

Sister Feng knew Jia's mother very well, and it was best not to tell them apart at this time, so she apologized repeatedly: "The old lady taught me a lesson. It's all because my grandson's daughter-in-law has little experience and experience, so she panicked and lost her composure."

"Well, this is your first child and you are inexperienced, so you can't help but panic. It will be fine in the future, everyone is called like this."

At this point, Mother Jia couldn't blame Sister Feng for being a pregnant woman, so she comforted her a few words, and then told Yuanyang: "Let Lai Da go to Liufuju to get the best gift box, and go to the in-law's house to announce the good news, saying that Second Mistress is pregnant with twins."

Sister Feng hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, old lady!"

Ping'er Youshi supported her on both sides. Sister Feng said it was a salute, and she couldn't bend down. She was just making a show, which scared Jia Mu: "Hurry up and help the ducks, don't nest!"

Here You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sent Sister Feng home happily, but Jia's mother was paralyzed as if her muscles had been cramped.

The young lady Jia Lian and Feng were full of surprises, which made Jia's mother surprised, happy, loved and hated. Jia's mother couldn't figure out what Jia Lian would do next, and what happened in the court also made Jia's mother vigilant. If you want to come, something big will happen.

However, now Jia's mother has inexplicable confidence in Jia Lian. It seems that Jia Lian should be able to handle any major incidents.

Jia's mother didn't know it, but before she knew it, she trusted Jia Lian more than his beloved son, Jia Zheng.

To be honest, Jia Zheng's performance is really unsatisfactory now.

Ever since Mrs. Wang got into bed, she looked like a dead person, but he didn't pay any attention to it, and spent all day hanging around with Aunt Zhao, and even those Qingkemen had a hard time dealing with it.Mother Jia really gritted her teeth with hatred. For Jia Zheng's good reputation, she spends a lot of money every year to support those idlers, isn't it just to show off Jia Zheng's status as a scholar?Even being led by the nose by Aunt Zhao all day long, he is no different from Jia Amnesty.

Looking at Baoyu again, although she is clever, she is only seven years old. There is also Li Wan and Jialan. There is no backbone in this second room. Mother Jia is really worried!

Thinking of this, Mother Jia felt resentment for a moment, what does the old man mean? Didn't he say that Zheng'er is the only one in the Rongguo Mansion who is quite the legacy of his ancestors?Why not give the family's unique skills to Zheng'er, but to Lian'er?

Since he likes Lian'er, why did he follow his own way and put Jia Zheng's room into the Rongxi Hall?

Don't say that Mother Jia couldn't understand these things, even Jia Daishan didn't know that things would come to this point!

Turning around, he said that Jia Lian was working as a servant in the palace today, and his days were like years, his expression was in a trance. Fortunately, he was no better than a foreigner, and he had to pass the money on time every night. Long live God and the shift foreman can see it.

That night, Jia Lian couldn't sleep again, so he simply meditated and practiced, and finally stayed up until dawn to leave the palace.

Fortunately, Feng Ziying was also on the night shift, so he didn't delay his work. The two met at Qianqingmen. When Jia Lian saw Feng Ziying, his eyes lit up as if he saw silver.Feng Ziying shuddered: "Isn't it, brother?"

Jia Lian urged: "Let's go quickly, I will serve wine at noon, treat your brothers to eat and drink!" But his heart kept humming, you have never died, of course you are not in a hurry.

After leaving the Xihua Gate for a while, Zhao'er was already waiting with a food box. Jia Lian took the food box and handed it to Feng Ziying. Feng Ziying took the food box and turned east. As soon as he emerged in the yard, his brother-in-law came out, obviously waiting for him a long time ago.

The two greeted each other for a while, Feng Ziying only said that he brought breakfast along the way, Luo Shicheng thanked him, took the food box, and put the things in Feng Ziying's sleeve pocket.Uncle Erlang said a few more gossips and parted ways.

Here Jia Lian was leaning against the wall and waiting for Feng Ziying to give him a smug look, Jia Lian almost cried.The brothers flew on their horses and went directly to Qingyaju in Wufenglou.

Only then did Feng Ziying pass the cuff to Jia Lian.Jia Lian took it with trembling hands, as if holding the lives of the whole family.

Jia Lian spread out the printed copy, and took out an IOU for reference, which showed the Yin and Yang sides of the redemption card.The difference from other mansions is that this word is written by the imperial pen, not made in the palace.

Jia Lian's heart skipped a beat, if this thing got caught in the eye of the present, the Rongguo Mansion might have to raid the house again, the Taishanghuang is really harmful!

No, before these IOUs are presented to the emperor, I have to draw out the IOUs, redeem the redemption cards, and then, then, smash them to pieces!

Jia Lian couldn't care less, got up abruptly, and patted Feng Ziying: "Brother, I don't want to thank you for your kindness, I won't say anything today, when I get over this time, our Rongguo Mansion will open the middle door and hold a big banquet to reward you! "

Feng Ziying frowned when she heard the words: "What do you mean? Brothers are too alienated. Since my brother has something to do, let's go. If there is anything, as long as the brother can help, just talk!"

Jia Lian didn't care about being polite: "I've taken care of all the eating, drinking and having fun here, you can do whatever you want!"

Jia Lian rode home and ran straight covered in white sweat. After entering the gate of the mansion, he went straight to the study, and told Zhao'er Xing'er who had been waiting early in the morning: "Keep the door and don't allow a fly to come in!"

After entering the study, Jia Lian dared to spread out these borrowed residences one by one. Suddenly, Jia Lian's face turned livid. It was true that the 80 borrowed residences were signed by the old man, but Jia's mother signed more than 40. 60.

Because it was a rubbing copy, Jia Lian couldn't identify whose handwriting it was, but Jia Lian could guess whose handwriting it was.Either Lai Da fished in troubled waters to deceive the old lady, or Lai Da and the Wang family conspired to deceive the old lady.

Jia Lian pondered nervously, and finally decided that this matter should not disturb the old lady for the time being. The people around the old lady may not be reliable. If it disturbs the old lady, it will definitely disturb Lai Da.

I hope the old lady hasn't told Lai Da about the debt collection in the house, otherwise, it will be tricky to make Lai Da alert and prepare.

Jia Lian clapped his hands, and Zhao'er entered the door: "What's the second master's order?"

Jia Lian said: "Pan You'an can calculate the property of the Lai family. How much money is it worth?"

Zhao'er said: "Second Lord is in a hurry and can't do an on-the-spot investigation. A rough estimate shows that it will be worth a million dollars. However, Lai's jade field in Yunnan is not included, and even if there is Leng Zixing's pawnshop, there is also Lai's share. , this also involves the Palace of Zhongshun, so there is no alarm."

Jia Lian couldn't help sneering, Leng Zixing is really all-round, the weird Prince Teng only dared to kill Zhou Rui, not to disturb Leng Zixing, he is the King of Zhongshun and the King of Zhongyi County, so he really can't be touched right now.

Jia Lian was really not reconciled, if Leng Zixing could be eliminated at the same time, the debts of the Rong Mansion would be like a drizzle.

After being silent for a long time, Jia Lian had a plan in mind, and beckoned Zhaoer Xinger to approach: "Zhaoer, go to Changping quickly, and bring everyone back to me together. The customs clearance master has returned to Beijing to sit in town. He must hurry back today. After returning to Beijing, don't let him go." Go back to the residence, go directly to the Liuli Street Commercial Store to wake up, and return to Rongning Street to stand by after dark."

Zhao'er took Jia Lian's business card and went out.

Jia Lian was instructing Xing'er: "Send a safe person to Lai's mansion to invite Nanny Lai to enter the mansion. He said that the old lady is lonely at home and wants to talk to some old people, and then ask someone to bring some uncles and grandmas from the back street into the mansion. Come and accompany the old lady to draw cards. Also, you personally inform Jia Yun and Jia Ling to come and see me."

Xing'er responded and left.

Jia Lian called Long'er again: "Quietly inform Zhao Liangdong that the second grandma is not allowed to know about the entry of the uncle and grandma into the mansion. Tonight, the Hemerophyll Hall is closed at night, and the door is not allowed to open when the sky is falling outside. This alarmed the second grandma, and told him to carry it. Head to meet me."

Half an hour later, Xing'er returned to the mansion, told the pick-up people that the chariots and horses had already set off, and brought back Jia Yun and Jia Ling.

After Jia Yun and Jia Ling saluted, Jia Lian handed Jia Yun a token representing the rights of the Rongguo Mansion: "I'm not here tonight, there is a big matter about the life and death of the Rongguo Mansion to be entrusted to you, do you dare to accept it? "

Hearing this, Jia Yun felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling. The boy knelt down and took the token in Jia Lian's hand with both hands: "Second uncle, please tell me, I dare to level him even in water or fire." Already!"

Jia Lian smiled: "You are not allowed to go in water or fire. Tonight at five o'clock, I want you to take someone to copy everyone of Lai. At that time, Pan You'an will help to count the property of Lai's family. When it gets dark, there will be 30 people in the mansion to pay for the crime." You dispatched, there are 30 people in the hands of Master Guan outside to meet you, are you sure you can take down the Lai Mansion?"

Jia Yun squinted her eyes and thought for a moment, then said: "Others should be fine, it's just that Lai Da has accumulated power in the mansion for a long time, I'm afraid the boys will not dare to do anything to him!"

Jia Lian pointed at Jia Yun with a smile: "Good boy, you have grasped the key point at once. Lai Da Lai Sheng will be caught by someone, so you don't need to worry."

When Jia Yun heard this, she slapped her chest immediately: "I can't do it like this, and I won't dare to see my second uncle again in the future!"

Jia Lian took another token and handed it to Jia Ling: "I want you to surround the Rongqing Hall with people starting at five o'clock tonight, and no one is allowed in, which will disturb the old lady. I only ask you, how dare you accept the order?" ?”

Jia Ling also knelt down, "Jia Ling will never let my second uncle down!"

Jia Lian nodded: "Okay!"

Only then did Jia Lian turn around and draw another token to Xing'er: "You take them to hand over the manpower, and then you go to Liulichang to wait for Master Guan, and then go to Lai's mansion with Zhao'er, and wait for Pan You'an to check the finances. box, you are responsible for transporting it back to Rong Mansion, you are familiar with Lai Mansion, I want to catch them all in Lai Mansion, and no one is allowed to escape, can you do it?"

Xing'er's eyes lit up with excitement, and he knelt down to accept the token: "Xing'er will never disappoint the second master's cultivation!"

The three of them acted according to plan without mentioning it.

Jia Lian was silent for a moment, Jia Lian put the rubbings of the IOU into a palm-sized red sandalwood box, stuffed it into the cuff, ordered the car to be harnessed, and went to the east courtyard to meet his father Jia She.

Jia Amnesty still lived a life of debauchery, while Sister Feng asked Ping'er to send some soup and water to honor her father-in-law every now and then, but the more Jia She drank, the more energetic she became.

The author has something to say:

I specified 17 points, but the hand slipping turned into 17 days.

I didn't publish it for half a day before I realized I was wrong.

I'm really a 250
