The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

It is said that Jia Cong was so hung up that a person surnamed Mei coaxed him to a secluded place and shot him indiscriminately. Chen Ruijin, who was at a loss, cheated by relying on his early experience.Jia Congnai asked: "How do you know that he is the Supreme Emperor's man?"

"Guess." Chen Ruijin said, "Since we didn't plan to let us leave alive, we can't be guilty of cheating on the mansion. The mansion has been at least five or sixty years old, and ordinary mansions don't have two engravings. It must be the first emperor."

Jia Cong held his chin and said, "They want to kill me at this point, obviously they have something to do with that beautiful woman Fan. They are the ones who helped beautiful woman Fan steal the dragon and turn her into a phoenix." Chen Ruijin nodded slightly.Jia Cong said again, "Thinking about it from the beginning, the most uncontrollable thing is that I go to buy dim sum. It is impossible for them to count on me to go back to buy dim sum today. Unless they are waiting in the dim sum shop."

Chen Ruijin said: "The dim sum in that shop has a bit of Beijing style."

"Oh!" Jia Cong said, "Then they probably opened the dim sum shop... Huh? Why are they so familiar?" He frowned and thought for a long time, then suddenly clapped his hands and shouted, "Oh! I remembered!"

When Beijing and China were in chaos in the early years, Jia Huan sincerely set a trap for the little prince's family, declaring that he would eat all the dim sum shops in the capital.Sure enough, someone took the bait and opened a delicious dim sum shop waiting to get acquainted with him.And there was a scholar surnamed Mei who ate with him, and in the end he claimed to be the eldest prince.In the end, the dim sum shop was opened by the sixth prince's mother's family - that is, the Zeng's family in Lu country; Mr. Mei later became a member of the seventh prince, and it seems that Han Quan was sent to the Rongguo mansion because of his contribution.It was only later that Jia Cong found out that Mr. Mei was Mei Hanlin's son, the one who was originally betrothed to Xue Baoqin.The Mei family finally divorced Xue Baoqin, and it was the fifth prince's mother's family who intervened.This person never showed his face afterwards, and everyone in the Jia family never paid attention to him.Now, looking back and thinking about it again, he was involved in four of the seven sons of the Supreme Emperor.

Chen Ruijin asked: "Since he is Mei Hanlin's son, have you ever met him?"

Jia Cong said: "It is reasonable to say that he should have seen it in the Imperial Academy, I have no impression. If he does his work carefully, it is normal for him to be sincere and not attract attention. I suspect that this person surnamed Mei flirted with all the princes and mothers, including the Zeng family. One copy. His token of being a secret agent of the Lu Kingdom is real. Since he boarded the boat of the Zeng family, it was too easy for him to sneak into the subordinates of the King of Lu. Especially when the King of Lu was poor and poor when he first arrived in the fief, he could be selected by Liu Dengxi as a secret agent. Yes, the ability must be not small. Whether it is coaxing the little boy of King Lu or the Zeng family, it is easy."

Chen Ruijin nodded and said, "The Kingdom of Shu is not far from the Kingdom of Qin. The Supreme Emperor and that illegitimate son escaped from Chang'an, and it would be cheaper to avoid the Kingdom of Shu."

"If this is the case, it can be concluded that Fan Meiren must have their people beside them." Jia Cong scratched his head, "Then they are very powerful. The timeliness is too strong. I remember that it was autumn when the special battalion left Dajiala for Chang'an It’s almost the end of the new year when Fu’er and the others come back. This Seventh Princess seems to have been born in the first month?”

"It's the first month. It was November of the old year when the Supreme Emperor escaped from Qin."

"Suppose the Supreme Emperor sent Taoist priests from Mount Hua to Shu Kingdom to contact the bald old man as soon as he escaped. It would take less than two months to make a plan to steal the dragon and turn the phoenix into a phoenix, seduce Meiren Fan, and get a baby boy born around the same time. Jia Cong frowned for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Where are those four Wen women from?"

Chen Ruijin said: "They are all locals from Chengdu."

"Could there be a bald old man in Wenpo?"

"That house...whether it's a bald old man or a hunchbacked old servant, it looks like two guards. I just don't know what they are guarding." Chen Ruijin said, "So the two of them should not be careful."

Jia Cong was silent for a long time, resting his cheeks, and suddenly bared his teeth and said, "We do some detailed work in Chengdu, right?"

"Yes. What do you want to do?"

Jia Cong chuckled: "To sow dissension!"

"Divorce who?"

Jia Cong whistled: "My son and I." Chen Ruijin raised his eyebrows.

There is a small side door leading to the outside of the mansion near the big kitchen in the Shizi's mansion, in order to send vegetables, rice, firewood and charcoal cheaply.Open during the day and locked at night.Early the next morning, the people in the kitchen opened the small side door, and they were startled when they heard a "bang".It was still dark at this moment, and the man lit a lantern.Nai looked down to the ground and saw something shining brightly outside the threshold.Looking closer, it turned out to be a dagger!A letter was inserted into the tip of the dagger, and there was writing on the letter.This time the person couldn't read, so he hurried out to look around for a long time, but he didn't see half a person.Then he turned back and locked the door, not even daring to take the letter off the dagger, so he stuck it in and ran to give it to the steward.

The manager can't read very well, and the gentlemen of the counting house have not yet come to the mansion.The steward walked around the room a few times in a panic, remembering that there were some cleansers living in the guest house in Fuzhong, so he rushed to smash the door of a cleanser under the west corridor.The Qing Ke woke up in a daze, and it took him a long time to understand what the steward said.He took the dagger and the letter and looked at it. On the envelope was written: From your son, hurry up.Qing Ke didn't dare to disassemble it, let alone neglect it, and together with the steward, woke up the butler.Not long after, Shizi finally got into trouble.

The son opened the letter and took a look. The person who wrote the letter claimed to be "a secret work from another country".He said that he knew that His Highness the Third Highness and the Third Master Jia of the Rongguo Mansion were investigating the case of the daughter-in-law of the little princess, so he stood guard at the gate of the Third Highness's mansion every day, in order to get a glimpse of the expression on the third master Jia's face.It was the same yesterday.

Yesterday, when Third Master Jia came out of His Highness's residence, his complexion was gloomy at first, but he suddenly smiled after getting on his horse.Although he didn't know the reason, one must be careful in this business, so he quietly followed Mr. Jia.Unexpectedly, Mr. Jia went to a dim sum shop to buy dim sum.Xi Zuo thought he would return empty-handed again today, and was about to go home for dinner, but saw someone calling Jia Cong to buy him some snacks.Xi Zuo didn't recognize the man, so he stayed for a while.Then he saw Jia Cong and the man going to have tea with snacks.Then Grandma Jia San also came.After a while, the two of them actually left with the man, and it was obvious that the man was leading the way.Xi Zuo followed them far behind, and followed them through the city until they came to a strange mansion in Zhuzhi Lane.Because he didn't dare to get close, Xi Zuo only peeped a few times from a distance.They just stood at the gate of the house and did not go in. Mr. Jia sang a dozen ditties at the top of his voice!Then they went back home... I couldn't figure it out, I don't know what Mr. Jia and his wife are doing.As a foreign spy with mediocre martial arts, it is too risky to investigate a weird house.Xi Zuo went back and thought about it for two hours, and decided to give this piece of information to the prince of Shu for free.I don't know if Mr. Jia told the prince about this?If not, did he come to Shu for other business?

The prince held the letter and pondered for a long time.He did not doubt Jia Cong.If Jia Cong had any ill intentions towards the Shu Kingdom or himself, he would not have helped the King of Shu dig out the Qiyin Formation in the tunnel last time, nor would he have exposed Ding Wangji's mother and son's trick of pretending to be real.It's just that Jia Cong is not a minister of the Shu Kingdom, but just hopes that the Shu Kingdom will occupy more overseas land.Not only Shu, but also Yan and Wu sent troops abroad, and now Lu, Chu, Qin, Lu and other countries have been added.If the house had anything to do with other countries, I'm afraid Jia Cong would not care about it.Although he knew that the person who wrote the letter had bad intentions, Shizi couldn't turn a blind eye to it.So he ordered someone to invite Mr. Qiu Liang to come to the house.

It's not yet daylight.In his sleep, Qiu Liang heard that the son was in a hurry to invite him, so he sat up in fright, and hurriedly changed into the clothes he was going out with and rushed over.After the two met, Shizi just handed over the letter on the dagger silently: "Last night, someone stuck in the crack of the side door of my house."

Qiu Liang was shocked after seeing it: "This..."

The prince said: "I think, what this person said is probably true."

Qiu Liang said: "Since he is careful, why doesn't he investigate secretly?"

"Master Qiu, what do you think?"

Qiu Liang thought for a while: "Could it be that he knows who owns that house? Or, Wu Guoxizuo discovered that Jia Cong had contacts with Yan Guoxizuo, and deliberately led us to investigate Yan Guoxizuo?"

The prince said: "Whether what is said in this letter is true or not, we must first find out." Qiu Liang took the order and left.

Qiu Liang is a capable person. He did not know how many times he caught thieves and thieves at night in the middle of Beijing in his early years.Immediately went back and lit [-] fires. The gun team, while it was still dark, charged at the house in Zhuzhi Lane like tigers and wolves, and surrounded them in the blink of an eye.Qiu Liang rode his horse around the house twice, and seeing that it was blocked, he ordered someone to knock on the door.There was no answer for a long time, and the soldiers began to knock on the door.The door was so broken that a hole was smashed every two times, and all the soldiers rushed in.

Everyone went in with torches and took a look, but there was no one inside.The huge house was dusty, as if no one had lived in it for a long time.Partial basement, tables and cases are very clean.What does Qiu Liang do?Standing in the front yard and looking around, you can see the clues.Pointing to the patio in the small courtyard on the right, he said: "There is water in the tank." Then he ordered people to look at the kitchen.At that moment, the soldier came back and said, "There is rice, noodles and water in the kitchen." Qiu Liang nodded and ordered to search carefully.Not long after, the soldiers found quilts in many houses, which were warm, and it was obvious that someone had just left.It's just that I couldn't find anyone, I searched inside and out, I don't know if those people flew away with wings or escaped.

If someone else came to search, they would have to speculate hard to find clues; Qiu Liang personally checked the tunnels of Xianshu Palace, and later also checked the tunnels of Ding Wangji's house, so the first thing he suspected was the tunnels.Naiming lifted up the green bricks in the ground and turned the ground inch by inch.Insufficient manpower and then call some more.

When the soldiers lifted the green bricks, Qiu Liang wandered around with his hands behind his back.The house is very big, Qiu Liang took a closer look at it.Turning to a small courtyard next to the garden, suddenly looking up, the old man saw a pair of gate blocks standing at the gate of the courtyard.Ordinary door piers are all at the gate, and it is rare that there are also piers at the entrance of the inner house.Looking at it again, I can't help frowning—this door is actually a pair of stone blocks, and the courtyard wall is much higher than the wall of the ordinary inner courtyard.Qiu Liang raised his leg and was about to walk in, when suddenly he felt a strange feeling, and abruptly took back his steps.He ordered the soldiers around him: "Call more people over."

After a while, dozens of soldiers came over, and Qiu Liang asked them to go in and check.The soldiers kicked open the door, but no one was inside, and Qiu Liangfang walked in.There are only five houses in this courtyard, one main house and two side rooms on each side, but there is not a single tree, and there are neat green bricks on the ground.Qiu Liang took a few glances, and found that the blue bricks on the ground were badly damaged and hadn't been repaired for some time.And the strange thing is that there is not even a grass.The yard is huge, unlike the small yards next to ordinary people's gardens.The five rooms are also huge, square and square, with gray bricks and tiles.A pair of owls are placed on the ridge of an ordinary house, and quan are placed on the roof of these houses.

A soldier asked: "Lord Qiu, do you want to go in and take a look?"

Qiu Liang felt weird again, he stood in the courtyard and looked at it for a long time, then waved his hands and said: "The old man is a little dizzy." Then he turned and left.He didn't go in, and several guards followed him out.After leaving the hospital, the strange feeling in Qiu Liang's heart disappeared.Qiu Liang concluded that there was something wrong in the yard, so he ordered more men to come over and dig the yard first.

Although he came out, there were still many soldiers left in the courtyard, and he had to go into the house to check.Suddenly, I heard a chaotic "bang bang bang" inside, which was the sound of fire and guns.Qiu Liang was shocked: "There are thieves inside!" Everyone shouted, "There are thieves—"

Then he heard a very eerie and unpleasant laughter coming from the courtyard, like an old owl crying at night.A strange voice said: "Qiu Liang, you old thief, you run so fast!" Immediately after two "dong dong", two shadows flew out from the gate of the courtyard and fell to the ground—it was the hands of two Shu soldiers. The corpse, the head has been chopped off.

On the contrary, Qiu Liang calmed down, turned around at the door, stood with his hands behind his back, and said with a sneer, "Which family's elaboration is so rampant! Don't forget that you are in our country of Shu!"

When the two of them were talking, there was constant fire and gunfire in the courtyard, and there were screams.The Shu soldiers immediately surrounded him.Suddenly, another shadow flew out from the courtyard wall and hit the ground with a bang—it was another corpse of a Shu soldier, but this one was killed by a fire gun, so the head is still there.Then one after another corpses were thrown from the doorway or the courtyard wall by the people inside.Roughly counting the numbers, none of the soldiers left inside should have been spared.The old owl-like laughter sounded again: "Old thief Qiu Liang, do you dare to come in?"

Qiu Liang took a few deep breaths, helped the guard beside him stabilize, and said loudly, "Is there someone guarding you? Otherwise, you are so capable, why don't you come out?"

The man snorted coldly: "If I go out, wouldn't I be sent under your hands?"

Qiu Liang smiled and said: "I think the ability of the honorable master is nothing more than that." Then he gestured to a confidant who followed; the confidant ran away.

The man said: "My ability is only so good, you can't get in."

Qiu Liang said: "You can't come out either! How dare you come out?"

"Do you dare to come in?"

The two chattered for a long time amidst the corpses all over the floor.During the conversation, the soldiers of the Shu Kingdom surrounded the courtyard.Qiu Liang laughed and said: "Your Excellency can't come out anymore! If you want to come out, you will be fired indiscriminately."

The man said inside: "I won't go out for the rest of my life?"

Qiu Liang snorted and said, "Just don't worry, it won't be as long as a lifetime." Then he ordered the soldiers to carry Paozhe's body down.

It was daylight now.After another half an hour, the sound of gurgling came from a distance, getting closer and closer, as if some kind of car was driving into the house.A soldier turned his head and took a look, and was immediately overjoyed: I saw a group of soldiers pouring in from the door of the round moon cave in the back garden, pushing or pulling a cart - a Western artillery was placed on the cart, which was the latest money.
