The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

It is said that Situ Yue, the son of King Yan, was having a banquet with his son, when someone came to report that his younger brother had been assassinated, so he rushed to the next door.I saw the two guards brought by Situ Yan guarding the door, and when they saw him, they hurriedly knelt down.Situ Yue walked in.The room was in chaos, and more than a dozen students collapsed on the ground and shivered.Situ Yue was stabbed in the chest and fell down beside the wine table, already dead.After all, they are biological siblings, Situ Yue couldn't help crying.

Nai asked the two guards to pass by.It turned out that Situ Yan had only drank two glasses of wine when he returned to the house, when suddenly a black shadow jumped in like lightning, stabbed him carefully without waiting for others to notice, and then flew away.Because there was a terrace outside, the guards chased after a few steps, only to see a shadow falling rapidly as if flying, and hurriedly jumped down, still don't know what happened.They asked the assassin what he looked like, and the guard said that he covered his face with a black veil and was dressed in black.

Not long after, the guard who jumped downstairs came back, knelt down and cried, "We've been fooled! The downstairs is just a black dress wrapped in fir wood."

Before the prince could speak, the staff beside him shouted: "I'm afraid the assassin is still there! Hurry up and seal this restaurant, don't allow anyone to leave!" The prince immediately ordered people to guard the gate and not come in or out.This matter is very important, so I quickly reported it to Yan Wangfu.

Situ Pan was discussing matters with his staff in the mansion, when he heard this, he was stunned and ran to the courtyard where Situ Yan was locked up.Pulling off the curtain, it was not his son lying on the bed at all!Filled with grief and indignation, he picked up the young man pretending to be Situ Ying and threw him to the ground, kicking him out, the young man died instantly.At this moment, someone came back and forth, and the princess passed out after hearing the news.Situ Pan mourned: "It's her! She killed my son!"

Then gallop to Demenglou.When he entered the room, he saw that the eldest son was weeping bitterly while stroking the dead body of his second son. He couldn't help but burst into tears from his grief.Seeing his father coming, Situ Yue rushed over and hugged Situ Pan's leg.Situ Pan's legs went limp and he fell to the ground, and the father and son cried.

Feng Ziying just followed, and immediately asked the guards who followed Situ Yan, and ordered to search the restaurant carefully.But after a while, someone came back and forth: "In the next room, a man in the clothes of Xiaoer was beaten to the ground." Feng Ziying hurriedly turned to the next door.

I saw that the room was neat and tidy, and a teapot was broken on the ground, which was smashed by the little boy before. There was a small wooden barrel next to the waiter. Clean up the house.The terrace of this house is very close to the terrace of the house where Situ Yan was assassinated. There is a pink dress on it, which is exactly the color of the curtain on the terrace on the second floor of Demeng Building.

Feng Ziying suddenly remembered the old case many years ago.At the end of the first lunar month seven years ago, Huo Xuan, the king of Nan'an County, was assassinated on the second floor of Demenglou. Not only did he break his leg, but he also forcibly earned him a reputation of being a broken sleeve.Afterwards, it was found out that the person who plotted against him was wearing clothes of the same color as the curtains on the balcony. He first threw off an eye-catching white dress and went downstairs, causing Huo Xuan to jump off the building to chase after him. behind.After the guards left the terrace, the man took off his clothes and left them behind, and escaped calmly.That day, the imperial court searched for a long time but failed to find out half of it. Situ Pan also praised him many times, and ordered him to be found out so that he could be reused.The assassination of His Highness the Second Highness is exactly the same as that of Huo Xuan.Thinking of this, Feng Ziying felt uneasy, feeling something bad—I am afraid that this matter will not be found out again.

Hurry up to wake up the waiter in the shop for questioning.It turned out that when he came to tidy up the house, someone tapped him on the shoulder suddenly. He turned around and fainted. Before fainting, he saw only two figures, one black and one white.Feng Ziying blurted out: "Black and white evil spirits!" I knew in my heart that these two people probably had already fled the restaurant, but they still needed to question others carefully.

I thought, since Black and White Shuangsha prepared clothes, they must know that the Second Highness is coming back tonight, so there must be some accomplices among the group of people drinking with him.So these people were tried first.Some of the members of this gang guessed that Situ Yan was of a good life, some sincerely flaunted it around, and some helped him win people over to join him, and it was the date set before, so it's uncertain how many people knew about it.He also asked why he chose this place, but he said that Demenglou had six new dishes today, and everyone wanted to come here to catch up with the freshness.Originally, there was no place they reserved, and it was Lou Xiucai who got one.Feng Ziying couldn't help smiling wryly: This is because I was in a hurry to seek death.

Situ Pan cried for a while, and took his son's body back with his own hands and sent it back to the mansion.The princess saw it like crazy.Situ Pan ordered people to investigate how the Second Highness went out in public.Who else can release Situ Yan from the mansion, except the concubine?In the blink of an eye, a large number of them were found, all of whom were confidantes of the princess. Situ Pan ordered people to beat them to death one by one in front of the hall. They shouted, "They all got the order of the princess." Situ Pan didn't let him stop.All the women in the mansion were excited: the princess is finished.The princess herself had already passed out.

At first, Shizi just knelt and said nothing.Seeing that the person had been dealt with, the servant beside him tugged at his clothes.Shi Zi secretly sighed in his heart.Just now his staff took advantage of the nonsense and said, "The prince will definitely deal with the princess when he returns to the mansion. For the sake of the son, he will not divorce his wife, but he must deal with the important people around her to vent his anger. The son must wait for the prince to vent his anger. Be sure to remember to intercede for the concubine." Therefore, he knelt and walked half a step forward, choked with sobs and said, "Father, you are all villains, don't you know that the concubine mother is so lively? Want to go out for a walk…”

Situ Pan sneered and said, "You mean, because I didn't allow him to go out, he just wanted to go out and was plotted against?"

"The son dare not. The father has his own reasons."

Situ Pan said: "How many days ago, Third Aunt Qin reminded you that you need to strengthen your guard around you, lest someone want to make him blame you."

Shizi was surprised: "What?!"

Situ Pan snorted and said, "What a coincidence, he was assassinated, and you are eating wine next door."

"This..." Shizi panicked, "I don't know!"

Situ Pan said sharply: "Of course you don't know. What can you know?" The prince hurriedly lowered his head.Situ Pan burst into tears, "Because I was thinking, the mansion is heavily guarded, and it is difficult for anyone with great ability to reach in. Your mother is good, I am afraid that people will have nowhere to attack," he pointed at the princess, "special I’m going to send you out to harm others!”

The prince prostrated himself on the ground, not daring to speak again.

Situ Pan was silent for a long time, and then said coldly: "Check, check that Demenglou. Every restaurant and restaurant always has fresh dishes. Why do you brothers know how many fresh dishes they have? Go and check."

The prince hurriedly answered "yes".

The assassination of Prince Yan's son was naturally no small matter.Feng Ziying, Zhao Cheng and others interrogated her overnight.Because there were assassin's clothes in the room next door, and the young man who had a drink with Situ Yan said that the young man who invited Qu Shen had just seen that he had a bad look, and was busy searching the two of them.When Situ Ying was assassinated, they had just left and did not catch him.Feng Ziying went to visit Qu Shen in person, and at the same time sent people to Yihong Courtyard.But Qu Shen was not in the post house, Mrs. Yingge was invited away and never came back, and he didn't know who invited her, so he became more suspicious.

Early the next morning, Feng Ziying went to Rongguo Mansion to look for Jia Huan.Jia Huan listened for a long time in a daze, and only said one word: "Huh?"

Feng Ziying was in a hurry: "This matter is urgent, quickly find that lady of yours!"

Jia Huan said, "It's in a separate courtyard from our house."

"What?" Feng Ziying jumped up, "What the hell are you doing!"

Jia Huan was aggrieved and said: "Why did I play a trick?" After thinking for a while, he asked, "Have you reported it to King Yan? Has he become suspicious of that young master? If not, I can just say a few words to you. "

"Naturally." Feng Ziying said, "Now the prince is most suspicious of him."

Jia Huannai stood up and said, "Brother Feng, wait for me for a while, and I will change into clothes and go to the Yan Palace with you. That young man did a great deed to benefit the country and the people a few months ago, and I will have to invite the prince You must cooperate with the lords of the Ministry of Rites, and it may be that she is the credit for the stability of our dynasty for a hundred years."

His face was serious, but Feng Ziying was a little confused by what he said.For a while, Jia Huan changed his clothes and came out, and they went to Yanwang's mansion together.

Situ Pan just lost his son yesterday, and he didn't sleep a wink all night, and now he is waiting for the news of the investigation.Feng Ziying went in first and told what Jia Huan had said.Situ Pan was originally a person who focused on major matters, and when he heard the words "benefit the country and the people" and "a hundred years of stability", he put Situ Yan aside for the time being, and ordered Jia Huan to come in quickly.

His son died, so Jia Huan naturally wore a plain shirt, and first saluted Situ Pan when he entered the door: "My lord's condolences." Looking up, Situ Pan seemed to have aged several years overnight.

Situ Pan waved his hand and sighed, "It's fate too. What do you think that little boy did to benefit the country and the people?"

Jia Huan said with emotion: "I really didn't expect her to do that. It sounds easy, but it's really not easy for her." Nai whispered, "My lord, that young master is not a man, but my fourth sister."

Situ Pan was startled: "Didn't all your sisters go to the south?"

Jia Huan said: "My fourth sister is lively and can't stand restraint. Taiwan is just a deserted island, there is nothing interesting, and she gets bored after staying for a while. The second elder brother Pian Lian found a very good salt worker and got it. An excellent sun-dried salt recipe. Another Conger found a kind of South American potato, which is easy to grow in cold areas and can be used as food. Taiwan is too poor...so I thought about selling these two recipes in the north Money. Originally, I wanted to choose a suitable person, but it was a barren land and no one was available! The fourth sister took the initiative to ask for it... She has been walking around for the past two years, selling prescriptions."

Situ Pan and Feng Ziying looked at each other for a while, and said with neither laughter nor laughter: "If there is no one, why not come and ask me for two? There is no one who asks everyone to go out and sell things!"

Jia Huan said: "Thank you, my lord. It's just that I didn't think so much at the time? My uncle, that man, the lord, also knows about it. He has never had any rules. If she wants to go, let her go."

Situ Pan shook his head and said, "Nonsense."

Jia Huan smiled wryly and said: "I'm used to messing around anyway. A few days ago, my fourth sister met someone sent back by the Russian embassy in Liaodong to inquire about their domestic situation. After two days of hesitation, she finally did something. "

"What's the matter?"

Jia Huan thought for a moment, and said, "It must be a leak of the heavenly secret."

After our court was in great chaos, and after the general stability, the Russian envoy sent someone back to the country to report to their lord, and happened to meet Jia Xichun and Wu You.Because Xichun heard Jia Cong tell the story of Catherine the Great when she was a child, she was very curious and asked them for a long time.The Russian envoy has lived in the capital for several years, he knows what a family like Rongguo Mansion looks like, and he is also curious how she knows so many things about his own country.Today, the head of Russia is still Empress Elizabeth Petrovna, and Ekaterina is just an unfavored daughter-in-law.

When Xichun heard this story when she was young, she was naive and young, and she also thought that one day she would be our country's envoy to Russia, and have a good time with this strange woman who will surely occupy the annals of history in the future.The world has changed over time, and now she has traveled to many places and seen the cruelty of the world, and knows that the law of the forest that a master Jia Cong said is the truth.There will never be friends between countries, only temporary common interests, and they can turn against each other anytime, anywhere for no reason.The Russian state is adjacent to our dynasty, and its territory is as large as a behemoth.Once it is prosperous, it will definitely go to war with me.But right now I am torn apart, it is impossible to gather the power of the whole country to fight, I am afraid that it will be like strengthening Qin and destroying the six countries.

Mr. Cong Erzhi obviously has someone who is good at calculating the secrets, and has already calculated that the current Russian emperor has mixed merits and demerits, the next monarch is an incompetent waste, and his wife will become a great emperor of the next generation.Jia Xichun secretly admired Empress Ekaterina for many years, and she was unwilling to change her fate in her heart.However, the threat of the other country is too great.She thought for two days before making up her mind.But the Russian envoy was about to return home, and before he left, he came to see her again, still wanting to find out where she got so many things about her own country.

Xichun gritted her teeth, and said with a fake smile: "Because I was curious about your Russian Emperor Zetian in the future, I asked a lot of stories about your Russian court situation."

The Russian envoy wondered, "What Russian Zetian the Great?"

Xichun said in a low voice: "My Cong'er's gentleman who is good at divination and calculation calculated it. Your current princess is the order of the heroine, and sooner or later the prisoner will take the throne."

The Russian envoy was shocked: "Miss Fourth, you talk nonsense!"

Xichun pouted and said, "I didn't talk nonsense!" Then she picked and told the story of Ekaterina that Jia Cong said back then, focusing on how she didn't like her husband, how she won over the general and the church, and repeatedly told her about Ekaterina. Said that she had abandoned her because the emperor had the intention to change her to a shameless vixen as the queen, and she had no choice but to fight back.Naturally, ignoring the heroine's general talent, literary and martial arts, she will usher in a prosperous era for Russia.At the end, he said, "The destiny cannot be violated, and the strong violation will be condemned by heaven. She was destined to be the empress, but your prince happened to marry her. If the prince of another country married her, her fate would be the same, only for one country For the Empress." After saying that, seeing the envoy's face look ugly, he wondered, "Isn't your current ruler also an Empress?"

The Russian envoy forced a smile and said, "Yes, our lord is also a woman. But she is the biological daughter of the former Tsar."

"So what." Xichun bit her lips and said, "Isn't this Crown Princess also the daughter-in-law of your Empress?"

The Russian envoy looked embarrassed, and thought, the succession of the emperor, can a daughter and a daughter-in-law be the same?Nai hurriedly found an excuse and left.

Jia Xichun sighed dejectedly: I don't know if the destiny she talked about for half a day is useful to foreigners.I only hope that she will not die because of this, but instead go to a country that does not border our dynasty and continue her life.
