The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

The concubine of Shu claimed to be ill and asked Situ Cen to visit her; Situ Cen actually sent a boy to Jia's horse shop to inform Jia Cong.Jia Cong guessed that his chastity might not be guaranteed.Qiu remained calm, thought about the meeting and said: "I definitely can't pass."

Chen Ruijin agreed: "If you go, you will make her play a lot of tricks."

Jia Cong thought for a while: "It's still early. What does your Yingluo look like? Where did you make it?"

Chen Ruijin pointed to a drawing on the desk: "Here, do it according to that. It's okay to meet a master craftsman and change the idea a little bit. I just think that the colors and styles are not bad."

Jia Cong stepped forward to pick up the artwork: "Where did you make it?"

Qiu said: "I don't know either. I bought it at home. Go back and ask my sister-in-law."

"Thank you." Jia Juanna raised his fist in his arms, turned to his wife and said, "I'll go back to the yamen right away."

Chen Ruijin smiled and said, "Be careful on the road. Every time it's your villain's business." Jia Cong winked and left.

Qiu Liang and the others were still discussing matters when they suddenly saw Jia Cong come back.Qiu Liang wondered, "Don't you have a headache and a stomachache?"

Jia Cong patted his chest: "It's all good!" Qiu Liang snorted.Jia Cong smiled and bowed to his colleagues, and sat down as if nothing had happened.After a while he suddenly asked, "Does your son know about this?"

Qiu Liang said: "I'll go back to him after the discussion."

Jia Cong rubbed his chin: "I think it's better to invite him to discuss it together. He was in charge of this matter. And there is something that has to be troubled by him. Others don't have that much face." He winked.

Qiu Liang thought about it for a long time, but he didn't think it was necessary to invite the prince here.Instead, Jia Cong called out to Qiu Liang's entourage: "Go to the residence of the dead son, and said that your lord has something important to ask the son." Seeing that Qiu Liang didn't stop him, the entourage went.It's getting late now, and it's time for you adults to go to the Yamen, and the prince hasn't come yet.Jia Cong said with a smile, "Master Qiu, how about we work overtime and let the prince treat you to dinner?"

Qiu Liang thought that he really had something important to do, so he said sullenly: "Forget it." The colleagues next to him knew that there was a secret, looked back at the sky, and left one after another.

Before they left, Jia Cong took out the picture from his bosom and said, "Lord Qiu, this is Ling's niece's Yingluo. It's really well done. She said it was bought by her mother's family. Where are these things from your family?" The silver building fought?"

Qiu Liang stared at him: "How does this old man know this!"

Jia Cong said: "Most Yingluo strings are vulgar, but this one is unique." He muttered for a long time.

After waiting for a long time, the prince has finally arrived.Qiu Liang and Jia Cong rushed out to greet him.The prince smiled and said: "It's all over now, Mr. Qiu invited me here, can I have wine?"

Jia Cong looked at Qiu Liang: "Yes! I still expect the prince to invite you to drink, but this means that you can't count on it." Qiu Liang stroked his beard and smiled.

The three of them entered the door together, Jia Cong ordered the outsiders to guard and not allow anyone to disturb him, and bowed deeply to the prince: "It is really a last resort to lure the prince to come under the banner of Lord Qiu." The prince and Qiu Liang were both surprised.Jia Cong said with a wry smile, "Actually, Master Qiu and his niece and son-in-law have to trouble the prince to help." Both of them were stunned.Jia Cong said in a low voice, "If I'm not mistaken, Princess Shu is probably pretending to be sick, and she has sent someone to call Ah Cen to go there just now. I don't know if I will meet someone like uncle or aunt by chance."

Qiu Liang asked, "What's going on?" Jia Cong looked at Shi Zi with his hands outstretched, but didn't answer.

The prince frowned and said after a long time, "I see."

Jia Cong said: "There is one other thing, I have to trouble the prince to let the word out." The prince raised his brows, and Jia Cong smiled, "Because you are the prince, your words are more credible than others. Right, Mr. Qiu."

Qiu Liang suddenly understood what Jia Cong was referring to, so he put aside the matter of his nephew and son-in-law, and whispered the plan they had discussed.At the end, he said: "I originally thought about this matter, it would be good for Weichen to let me know."

Jia Cong poked his head from the side and said, "I think both officials and thieves know that Mr. Qiu is treacherous and cunning... well, he is resourceful, and people may not believe what he says. It would be safer to ask the prince to come forward. If the prince can persuade the prince to personally It will be even better.”

The prince couldn't help nodding: "You can really give it a try. I'm going to see my father right away."

Jia Cong clapped his hands: "Soldiers never tire of deceit since ancient times. The prince has fought in war, so I think he won't object." The three of them discussed again.

The prince left the Yamen and went straight to the Shu Palace.The King of Shu had just finished his supper and was sitting in the small hall to rest.Seeing him coming, he asked what was the matter.The prince sent the left and right out, and quietly returned to Jia Cong and Qiu Liang's plan.The King of Shu laughed and said, "What's the matter? It's good to be alone."

The son said with a smile: "The son also said that the father and king will agree." Then he said, "It's been cold recently, and the concubine is sick?"

The king of Shu was taken aback: "I never heard of it."

The son said: "Jia Cong said that the third child had invited him to have a drink tonight; he just sent someone to tell him that the third child could not go because he had to attend to the illness of his mother and concubine."

The king of Shu frowned and said, "You actually called the third child to attend to the sick?"

The son said: "The mother and concubine always love the third child the most. I'm afraid he is seriously ill. My son will also take a look."

The king of Shu said, "I will go with you alone." The prince smiled slightly.

Then the prince went to the princess's courtyard with the king of Shu.As soon as he entered the room, he smelled the smell of wine, and the king of Shu frowned.The concubine of Shu was safe and sound and came up to meet the king of Shu.The prince and the king of Shu looked at each other, saw his mother, then looked into the house and asked, "Where is the third child? Isn't his person standing outside?"

Concubine Shu smiled and said: "He has drunk two cups of wine and is a little drunk. I will ask someone to help him go to the wing to sleep for a while."

The crown prince complained: "Mother and Concubine also let him go. I just went to my place last night to drink for half the night, and today I drink again. Don't damage the liver and spleen."

Princess Shu said angrily, "Can I eat your wine or mine?"

The son said helplessly: "Mother and concubine—how can someone be drunk for two days in a row. I didn't stop him yesterday, otherwise he would not be allowed to eat so much."

"But it's coming again!" Princess Shu said, "You can't usually stop him, can you?"

The prince had no choice but to look at the king of Shu and gave him a look: "Father, the son said that the mother and concubine are not good enough, let's look at the third child." Before the princess of Shu called him, he ran away like a hot wheel under his feet.

The princess of Shu scolded from behind: "Little bastard can run fast!" The king of Shu was thoughtful.

The prince went out of the house and asked a follower of Situ Cen outside: "Where is your Highness?"

The attendant hurriedly pointed to the east wing: "It's here."

The prince walked in and said, "Why don't you go in and serve?"

The entourage lowered their heads and said: "The princess thought we were clumsy, so she sent two girls to serve."

While speaking, the prince has entered the east wing.I saw a goose-yellow soft curtain hanging on the bed, and an eighteen or nine-year-old woman stood by the bed, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute him when she saw him come in.The prince waved his hand, and opened the curtain straight away—heaved a sigh of relief.The tent was still full of alcohol, and Situ Cen was lying alone, covered with blankets, his face flushed.The prince sighed: "I was drunk last night and I still eat today." Nai stretched out his hand to caress Situ Cen's forehead, and tucked the quilt for him twice.He turned around and looked at the woman a few times, seeing that her eyes were looking at her nose, nose and heart, and asked, "How about the third child?"

The woman said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the Third Highness just drank a little too much wine, and it will be fine if he wakes up."

"How about hangover soup?"

The woman lowered her head slightly: "Princess Wang said, it will be fine for him to sleep for a while."

The crown prince shook his head, and ordered Situ Cen's entourage: "Go and make sober soup for your master." The entourage responded and left.The prince stroked Situ Cen's forehead again, and said to himself, "It seems a little hot?" Then he called his own people in, "Please come and take a look, doctor." He quietly glanced at the woman from the corner of his eyes.But she saw that although she lowered her head, the corner of her mouth clearly smiled.Shizi nodded secretly, and glanced around the room with his eyes.

Not long after the hangover soup was brought, the son ordered the woman to feed it for him.But seeing that this woman is very well-behaved, she can't even see the expression on her face, and she has no intention of showing off in front of the two brothers.After a while, the doctor came.The woman faintly smiled again.Since Situ Cen was very drunk, the doctor had no choice but to hear about it.The prince kept his eyes fixed on the doctor's face.After tossing for a long time, the doctor said with a stiff smile: "It's okay, Your Highness is just drunk." Then he prescribed another hangover soup.The prince ordered someone to stand by, and sent someone to cook sober soup.The doctor stood by and did not dare to move.

For a while, Princess Shu sent someone to ask Situ Cen Ke to wake up.The son complained: "It's the mother concubine who allowed him to eat as much as he wants, like a drunk cat." He asked the doctor to go over and answer.The doctor was slightly startled, and unconsciously glanced at Shizi.The prince looked at him calmly, "You just tell the truth, don't drop your book bag. Anyway, tell my mother and concubine not to let Ah Cen drink so much wine in the future." The doctor took a few deep breaths, and left in response.The prince motioned his entourage to follow and have a look.

After a while, the doctor came back and looked at Situ Cen again.The prince asked him to go to the next room to rest for a while.The attendant who went with the doctor took the opportunity to reply: "The poor son specially told him not to drop the book bag. This stupid doctor keeps dropping the book bag, and the prince and princess are confused."

The prince smiled and said: "Forget it, he doesn't dare to talk nonsense."

The entourage persuaded in a low voice: "Master hasn't had dinner yet."

The prince said: "I don't know why, I don't have an appetite today. I feel a little hungry after being so drunk." Nai glanced at the woman standing there, and seeing that her face was still motionless, he ordered her to take some snacks Come.

Decocting hangover soup is no better than decocting medicine, and it will be cured in a short time.When Situ Cen poured down the hangover soup, the prince had already eaten most of the plate of dim sum.Situ Cen felt uncomfortable after eating the soup, so the prince put down the snacks.Situ Cen rolled over on the bed a few times and vomited "Wow".Shizi nodded at him, shook his head and cursed: "You deserve it! See if you dare to eat so much."

After resting for a while, Situ Cen's eyes gradually cleared up.Seeing Shizi sitting on the bed, he exclaimed in surprise, "Brother!" Shizi snorted, poked his forehead hard with his finger, and covered his mouth and said, "This room smells bad." It was Situ Cen Someone came in, "Help your master to lie down in another room." He flung his sleeves and left first.

When he got outside, Shizi whispered a few words to his confidant, and casually entered the next room.For a while, Situ Cen was also helped over, and said with a wry smile, "I didn't eat much."

The crown prince snorted, "Forget it, why are you so drunk?" Nai said earnestly, "It's not that you are not allowed to drink alcohol, you just have to eat so much all at once. Do you get a headache when you get drunk?" Situ Cen curled his lips.The son sighed, "You should deaf to all the good words." So he didn't bother to say it.

Situ Cen is still young.Now that you're sober, just rest for a while.The two brothers went back to the room of Princess Shu, had a chat with the elders, and left hand in hand.

After leaving the gate of Shu Palace, Situ Cen breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest a few times and said, "What kind of flying talisman did Jia Cong use to alarm the second brother."

The crown prince glanced at him: "What's going on? Too drunk to be unconscious."

Situ Cen cried out: "I really didn't drink much. The concubine mother said she was sick and asked me to go see her. I took it seriously at first. When I went over to see her, she didn't wear makeup, had a sallow face, and didn't look sick. I didn't see any signs of illness. I was afraid that she would call my uncle out later, and I was afraid that she would take advantage of the situation and give me two women, so I sent someone to tell Jia Cong. But she said that she was in a panic and wanted to drink, And ordered me to eat two cups with her."

The son pondered: "There are restless people beside the concubine mother."

"Ah? Really?" Situ Cen squinted at his second brother.

But at this moment, the attendants of the two of them led the horse over, and the two brothers got on the horse.The prince said: "Sit on my house."

Situ Cen rubbed his neck: "I went to your place yesterday, and I'm going to my house today! My second brother hasn't seen my glass flower hall yet, it's the most interesting. It's even more interesting at night."

The prince smiled: "Alright."

Arrived at Situ Cen's mansion.Situ Cen ordered to pack tea and refreshments and prepare more candles, so the two brothers sat and rested in the glass flower hall.When the prince saw the flower hall, he praised it as "interesting".Situ Cen said: "Speaking of it, this one is modeled after several shops on the streets of Dajiala, Taiwan Prefecture."

The prince nodded, thinking about it, he said: "There must be something wrong with the wine you are drinking today."

Situ Cen was startled: "Mother Concubine..."

The prince snorted and said: "Your people said that the mother concubine sent two women to serve you, but there was only one in the room. The other one probably heard my hurry and hid in a hurry."

Situ Cen wondered, "Why is she hiding?"

The crown prince looked at him with a smile and said, "Of course it's because I'm wearing the clothes of a palace lady, so it's inconvenient to see me."

"Second brother recognizes her? Have you seen her?"

"I haven't seen it. What do I think of it hiding in the cabinet? I sent someone to pay attention. You and I went out of that room to the next door. After a while, two women of average dress and average height came out from the other side." The crown prince paused for a long time, then frowned and said, "Why did my concubine start to use such silly tricks? If you want to plead for uncle, there is no need to send your cousin to your bed."

Situ Cen frowned and said, "Uncle told my cousin to avoid the three of us since I was a child. The concubine mother has no intention of getting closer, otherwise the second sister-in-law must be a cousin. Even if she wants to send me a woman, she doesn't have to send her cousin. Brother, did you guess wrong?"

The prince took two sips of tea and said: "Well, I guessed wrong. Think about it for yourself. Who else can hide from me and dare not meet? I have seen portraits of my uncle's cousin several times. Come on, we have to walk through the scene."

Situ Cen thought for a long time, then shook his head: "I still feel that uncle is reluctant to fill in his cousin."

The prince put down the teacup and sat upright, looked at Situ Cen and said, "Ah Cen, you have something to hide from me."
