The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

The prince of Shu called his younger brother to come to the mansion to talk.Situ Cen was careless at first, but after hearing a few words, he realized something was wrong.He raised his eyes and stared at Shizi and said, "Second brother, why did you say this? Is my marriage going to change?" While talking, his mind went back and forth 720 times.Everything is in order, how could there be any changes?

The son was silent for a moment, and said: "What if there is a change?"

Situ Cen stood up abruptly, clenched his fists in a daze for a while, and said, "Please tell me, brother. It definitely has nothing to do with you."

"Nonsense!" Shizi frowned, "Isn't it up to you to discuss it?"

Situ Cen took a few deep breaths and calmed down a little: "Second brother, as the eldest son, seems to have a high position and authority, but in fact he has a lot of worries, and his actions are governed by all parties. I am different. At worst, I don't want to go to the West as a prince. I have been in Nanyang for a few years, and I can't afford to borrow tens of thousands of silver from Jia Cong to become a sea merchant. Don't worry, brother, we will write letters back honestly, and don't let the father, mother, concubine and her parents worry about it. In a few years, we will raise two A child, are you afraid that the elders will not soften their hearts?"

Shizi glared at him angrily: "Why did you take him away?"

"There is always a way. What they worry about is that our brothers will not get along in the future. I just leave, and this worry will naturally disappear."

"Just go, what's next?"

Situ Cen sneered and said: "Zuo is just a face, it will be fine in a few years." After a moment of silence, he picked up the wine glass on the table, held it up in his hand, looked at it for a long time, and smashed it hard on the ground. "Go fuck yourself!"

The prince sighed: "Don't worry, I haven't found out yet." Situ Cen turned his head.

The son just learned about this from Jia Cong today, and he didn't have the time to investigate in detail, so he had to repeat what Jia Cong said.At first, Situ Cen's face became more and more ugly, but after listening to it, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "It's good that you are fine." Nai smiled and looked at his brother, "Second brother, I'm sorry, your brother probably really wants to run away from marriage. "

The prince shook his head: "Is it easy for you to run away from marriage? The old man of the Qiu family holds the military power, and the Taoist temple where the girl lives must not be guarded by heavy soldiers." Situ Cen thought about it, biting his lower lip unconsciously.The prince was slightly stunned.The third child bit his lips when he was in trouble, and he hasn't changed since he grew up.After a long time, Situ Cen squeezed his fingers, and said steadily: "Check it out first before making a plan. Try to contact her. She is not someone who just sits and waits to die." Shizi's heart moved inexplicably.Seeing his brother in a daze, Situ Cen asked, "Second brother, what are you thinking?"

The prince unconsciously blurted out: "Third son, why don't you want to be the prince."

Situ Cen bit his lips again and thought for a long time before saying, "There are too many restrictions. Apart from other things, you can't even be free to have any kind of woman you want." Nai smiled bitterly, "Look at this moment, if you don't want to be a prince, you won't be free." Not free, it’s always better. I can escape marriage, but you can’t, my second brother. You have to accept the woman you don’t want, and I don’t have to. Today’s world is different from the past, and opportunities are full. For me, it may be a shackle." After thinking for a moment, he said seriously, "Second brother, science schools must not be taken lightly. Not to mention the Taiwan government, the first to build a science school was Wang Ziteng of Guangdong and Guangxi, and Lingnan became rich in the whole country; It has also started to be done in the capital; recently, it is believed that Wu Guowei Ruoheng has persuaded the king of Wu. If we stand still, we will have to let them cover it in a few years."

Shizi nodded: "I know. You made it very clear last time, don't worry."

Situ Cen smiled and stretched his waist: "Okay, I have to think about being a hero to save the beauty." He sighed again, "It's not easy to marry a daughter-in-law!"

In just over two quarters of an hour, the prince has thought about many things: weighing the pros and cons of all parties, guessing everyone's thoughts.This kid only wants to escape marriage with Mei Jiao Niang!I couldn't help but sigh in my stomach: I still only cause trouble, and every time I cause more trouble than the last time.He hurriedly warned: "Don't mess around, think long-term."

Situ Cen pursed his lips and said, "Time is urgent, so we can't make a long-term plan!" His eyes rolled around, as if he was thinking about something in his head.

The Shizi said: "What can you think of now with white eyebrows and red eyes, it is serious to find out where the person is and what precautions are in place."

Situ Cen's eyes flickered, and he said in anticipation: "Second brother, you will help me."

The son said angrily: "I didn't want to help, I was afraid that you would cause a bigger problem, and I would clean it up for you in the end!"

Situ Cen chuckled, shook his second brother's hand, and said coquettishly, "Second brother, you really saved my little brother's life!"

"That's all." The prince waved his hand, "You just promise me that if nothing happens, you can bear it for a while."

Situ Cen stood up and smiled and said, "Nothing is impossible. For life's major events, only success is allowed and no failure is allowed." After a long while, he murmured again, "If I fail this time, she will never forgive me. Speaking of which, I would like to thank them It’s such a big commotion..." I ran away as if I was a deserter when I could get over it.Everyone in the world could see his expression, his heart was like a wind-blown stone rolling down from the top of the cliff, he was really relieved.If this bastard can be the lord of a country, unless the sun rises from the north.

In the next few days, the two brothers went out together to find out where Miss Qiu was.However, only Elder Qiu Liang knew her whereabouts, not even her own father.Qiu Liang is the backbone of the Qiu family, who has the ability to get words out of his mouth?The son thought, Qingcheng Mountain is not big anyway, so it is good for every Taoist temple to find it.Coincidentally, he wanted to investigate the way of the celestial master, so he named it after that.The quickest to do things for the emperor's family, the people of the son found out that there was a very secluded Taoist temple in Qingcheng Mountain guarded by heavy soldiers, and it happened to be the second master of the Qiu family.

The son thought about it for a long time, and he was afraid that the youngest of his family would not hesitate to look forward and backward, so he didn't tell him for the time being; he just quietly sent someone to send a note to Jia's horse shop, and asked Jia Cong to come out for a while.This time I didn't go to Taibai Tower, I found a very small tea shop deep in the alley in the west of the city.When Jia Congyi passed by, he saw that there were no other customers in the shop, and the eldest son, Bailongyu, was sitting in it.Jia Cong made a bow and sat opposite.The crown prince gave a rough overview of Miss Qiu's hiding place.

Jia Cong frowned when he heard the words: "There are soldiers...it's not easy to deal with if there are soldiers." Then he broke his fingers, "If you want to save a weak woman, there are only a few ways. Steal the beam and find someone to replace her— - There must be an internal response to this. Miss Qiu's mother and younger brother must be willing to help?"

Shizi said: "What else?"

"Tune the tiger away from the mountain. Try to divert the guarding soldiers away. This is a bit difficult, we can't get the soldier talisman. Forget about this one."

The prince sighed: "I dare not tell the third child because I am afraid that I will be too bold and dare to tamper with the military talisman."

Jia Cong hummed, and then counted: "The other thing is the trick of a fox pretending to be a tiger, using the banner of the princess to trick people out. Anyway, Ah Cen is a brat in the first place, at worst, he will be beaten up by the prince in the future."

The prince laughed and said: "You don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement."

Jia Cong clapped his hands and said: "But here again! The matter was caused by her old man, how could she get a bride without using her as a cover! After all, no one else is to blame. We can combine the two tricks of stealing the beam and changing the post and the fox's fake tiger's prestige. .”

The prince asked, "Have you got a solution?"

"Have a rough idea." Jia Cong said with a smile, "Let's discuss together with Acen! Without him, we can't do it."

The prince frowned slightly: "Isn't it possible without him?"

Jia Cong shrugged and said: "I am a passer-by, and you are the eldest son. What can we do to win the trust of Mrs. Qiu San? No matter how sad a woman is these days, she dare not disobey her husband's wishes. A Cen's mother-in-law has to be settled by himself. " He raised his head and glanced at Shizi, "Now I just say that you found out this matter, so A-Cen owes you a huge favor."

The prince lowered his brows and thought for a moment, "It's not necessary, just tell him the truth. He owed me a lot since he was a child, and I don't know how much he owes me in this life anyway."

Jia Cong was surprised!He clapped his hands and shouted: "I knew I was right!" Immediately stood up and poured tea for both of them, "Tea instead of wine, my son, I respect you." The son shook his head slightly, raised his glass with a smile and drank it all .Jia Cong also drank the tea in the cup and filled it up again. "For this cup, I congratulate the prince for opening his heart. As the master of others, he can gain someone he can trust with all his heart. Whether it is a brother, lover, or friend, life will not be lonely." Seeing his crooked smile, the prince couldn't help but raise Drink up.Jia Cong poured tea for the third time. "With this cup, I wish the son will find true love one day. Love can be met but not sought, but there are many women around you and they must be excellent, so the chance of meeting true love is very high."

The prince drank his tea again, put down his cup and said, "I can't be as self-willed as you are."

Jia Cong slapped the table and said: "If you don't go crazy once when you are young, wouldn't you come to this world for nothing?"

The prince smiled and shook his head.After a while, he asked: "How did you find out about the secret work of Tianshi Dao in the capital?"

Jia Cong waved his hand: "I don't know, Brother Feng found it." Nai explained, "Isn't there a post office in our horse shop? Brother Feng asked the post office to help check that person's letter. The letter for you was originally Brother Feng entrusted me to send it to the Kingdom of Shu, the King of Yan must have nodded his head. Otherwise, how could such an important thing fall into my hands."

"So that's the case." Shi Zi secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Jia Cong went on to say: "God knows this matter, your family knows it, they know it, do you want to tell the princes of other families and discuss it with your two countries. If the prince is willing, you can discuss it with Situ Yue, the prince of Yan after the prince's ward."

The prince raised his eyebrows: "So, the prince of Yan Kingdom will not change?"

"I don't think there will be any major changes. For the time being, the younger sons of King Yan can't see any outstanding ones. The third child who caused a lot of trouble a while ago was the third child, but that person was somewhat cunning. The officers are unwilling to defend him."

The son thought for a moment and asked: "Mr. Jia, how am I compared to A Yue?"

"You are stronger than him." Jia Cong said bluntly, "but not strong enough to destroy him. You will coexist for a long time. Since this is the case, wouldn't one more friend be better than one more opponent? Both Yan and Shu are expanding In the future, it is still uncertain how many international affairs will need to be cooperated. Multilateral win-win and strong alliances are the kingly way.”

The prince looked at him with a smile: "Where is the prince of Wu?"

Jia Cong pursed his lips: "I haven't seen it before. Judging from the current news, he is a bit worse than the prince of Yan Kingdom." He snorted, "In the future, the entire Wu Kingdom will be his, and he is as big as a rat. Racked his brains." To collect money, you either move money from his father's treasury to your own small treasury, or plunder from the merchants and common people of Wu State, how can you have the consciousness of being an heir!"

The prince nodded: "I didn't expect this section."

Jia Cong said: "It's also because of this that I think His Highness Yan Guo has no chance. What he did was aimed at the boss. I don't know, even if he gets the boss down, can it be his turn to take the chair?" He smiled and said , "My son, from this point on, your younger brothers have all missed you by a thousand miles. You are more stable than the one from Yan Guo." Then he filled the tea and raised the cup.The prince raised his eyebrows and smiled, and the two drank the fourth cup of tea together.

The prince couldn't help but stroked his heart and let out a sigh of relief: "It's been a long time since I feel so comfortable." Jia Cong chuckled.

Since there were only ten days left before the wedding, the prince immediately sent someone to invite the master to go; Situ Cen hurried over immediately.He was shocked when he saw Jia Cong, and the son briefly explained the cause and effect, and the three of them discussed in secret.

The next day, Situ Cen wrote a post to his future brother-in-law, inviting him to come to the mansion as a guest, saying only, "If you have something to discuss, it's very important." The second master of the Qiu family held the post so as not to cry.When Master Qiu San heard about this, he called him over to give him careful instructions for a long time.Qiu Erye only answered "Yes" with his head bowed.At the end, Master Qiu San let out a long sigh, opened his mouth a few times, and then swallowed the words abruptly.Finally choked up and said: "Why don't I feel sorry for your sister!"

Qiu Erye stared straight at the blue bricks on the ground: "Our family secretly made friends with the sixth prince back then, didn't we also participate in Seizing the Inheritance?"

Master Qiu San said: "At that time, only the sixth prince had soldiers in his hands, and the rest of them, including the Supreme Emperor, had no soldiers."

Qiu Erye said: "All he has is military merit, and he doesn't have the tiger amulet. Besides, my brother-in-law doesn't have that kind of thought at all."

Master Qiu San said: "What do you know? Back then when everyone looked at the virtuous king, why did they have that thought? He just assisted the Supreme Emperor with all his heart...Now everyone knows that the Supreme Emperor has been imprisoned by him for so many years." Second Master Qiu closed his eyes tightly. Mouth silent.His old man let out a long sigh and waved him away.

Second Master Qiu went back to the yard to change his clothes in a muffled voice, and pulled his horse to Situ Cen's residence.Situ Cen happily went out to meet his brother-in-law-to-be, dragged him around three times, and showed him all the things he had carefully prepared as if offering treasures. "Your sister likes this!" "She likes this on purpose!" "She said she wanted this since she was a child, but your family said it was for boys to play with and refused to buy it for her." "This is customized according to her paintings Yes." "Brother, look at this..."

Second Master Qiu couldn't bear it any longer, and hissed, "She doesn't like any of this!" Situ Cen shut his mouth.Qiu Erye clenched his teeth and clenched his fists and shouted, "The one who lives in the east courtyard is not my sister!"

Situ Cen smiled and said: "I know. I won't marry the one who lives in your east courtyard." He pointed to the things in the room and said, "I asked you to come here today to be a witness, so that I can tell your sister It proves that I have prepared these. She may not be able to see it." Second Master Qiu was taken aback.Situ Cen sighed and put his arm on Second Master Qiu's shoulder, "Brother-in-law, your sister and your brother-in-law may be going to die in a few days."

Qiu Erye's heart moved: "What desperation! Bah, it's unlucky to get married."

Situ Cen said solemnly: "If the two of us can flee to the end of the world, we still have to ask my mother-in-law to help. How about us being self-willed together?"
