old lady in red

It turned out to be the three grandparents of Emperor Jiahe!

After Jia Lian was stunned for a while, he immediately raised his robe and saluted.

When the emperor comes, he must kneel down and worship.

Emperor Jiahe waved his hand: "Forget it, it's not the court, so feel free."

Jia Lian then bowed and saluted the three generations of his descendants.

Emperor Jiahe said with a smile: "Little Liu, when he talks about marching and hunting, and burying pots to make food, he is full of energy.

Today, your fourth master and I, to benefit from the honor of your masters and apprentices, will also go and have a look and eat something ready-made. "

Jia Lian hurriedly said: "This is out of order. I am in the wild with the emperor's grandson. I eat whatever I find. I don't bring anything except the salt bag. I just look for it outside.

Your Majesty, you are the son of heaven, rich in the world, so there is no need to be like this.

We have explored the nearby mountains and forests, and there is nothing left. We will go far away. It is hot today. Your Majesty, you are in such a body, I am afraid that you will not be able to bear it..."

The fourth master said: "This matter has to be considered. In this way, today you don't need to find food or hunt. It's just a picnic. You bring your own condiments and food. You are responsible for finding drinking water, wild vegetables, collecting firewood, and burying pots for cooking. become?"

Although the sixth emperor's grandson is not as lively as before, Jia Lian can tell that Emperor Jiahe and the fourth master accompany him to go out to play. He is very restrained and happy at the same time.

He held Emperor Jiahe's hand and looked eagerly at Jia Lian.

When the fourth master mentioned this, Jia Lian couldn't refuse it, and said, "Your Majesty, the fourth master has orders, and I dare not obey them!"

This time, Jia Lian took him directly to Baijiawan.

There is a Xiaohe in Baijiawan, but there are large river beach pebbles.

Here is surrounded by mountains and rivers.

There are firewood on the mountain and fish in the river.

The river beach is also convenient to bury, and it is a good place for a picnic.

This time, Shuiyang's performance is remarkable.

First of all, I chose a fishing place for Jiahedi to actively choose a river beach mouth with shade.

Then, he ran to help Emperor Jiahe make fishing rods and dig earthworms for bait.

Emperor Jiahe and Fourth Master both fell into the fishhook.

Shuiyang ran to help Jia Lian bury the pot and cook.

Although it's just a slap in the face, it looks good.

Jia Lian consciously let Shuiyang take the lead, and let Emperor Jiahe see these days, he led the six princes out, not all for fun.

He taught Liu Huangsun many useful things.

I didn't bring green vegetables when I came out, and the two nobles probably couldn't swallow the wild vegetables alone.

Jia Lian then asked the guards to carry a bundle of firewood and go to the village to exchange vegetables.

Jia Lian thought that the two nobles stepped out today, definitely not to eat, but to cultivate a relationship with the sixth prince.

Just at this time, Emperor Jiahe and Fourth Master both caught a few fishes as long as a stick.

Jia Lian said, "I guess these firewoods can't be exchanged for much. If there are a few fish, they can be exchanged for more vegetables."

In this era, most people seldom eat meat dishes.

Moreover, many ordinary people disdain to spend time on fishing.

Thought it was not doing business properly.

However, if someone delivered it to their door, they were still willing to exchange things to satisfy the child's master's gluttony and improve the food.

Shuiyang frowned: "It's too late to make fishing rods now?"

He dare not ask for fish!

Jia Lian smiled at the two noblemen.

The meaning was obvious, it was to ask Shuiyang to get close to his grandfather and father, begging for some fish in exchange for vegetables.

Shuiyang stared at Jia Lian with moist eyes, wanting to ask Jia Lian but begging for it.

Jia Lian spread his hands to show that he dared not.

And whispered with mouth shape: "It's not my grandfather's father..."

Shuiyang walked up to the fourth master lightly and took a look, and the fourth master caught four fish that were more than one stroke long.

Then he went to look in Emperor Jiahe's fish basket, and only caught two fish that were one span long.

Logically, you should go and ask fourth master for it, because he catches a lot.

Shuiyang babbled and dawdled, not daring to move.

Jia Lian gestured at the side and gave encouragement again and again.

In the end, Shuiyang didn't dare to ask the fourth master for it, so he decided to discuss it with Emperor Jiahe: "Grandfather, there are still many fish in the river, and you can definitely catch many more. Take these to the village to exchange for some vegetables, okay?" ah?"

Emperor Jiahe saw at a glance that Shuiyang did not dare to be naughty with Fourth Master, put his finger on his mouth and hissed: "Shut up, the fish is biting the hook."

Shuiyang didn't dare to make a sound.

He waited for a while, but Emperor Jiahe's fishing rod didn't move, and the fish hadn't bit the hook yet.

Emperor Jiahe looked at Shuiyang eagerly, and then pouted at the fourth master, suggesting that Shuiyang should discuss with the fourth master.

At this time, fourth master caught another fish.

If it was Marquis Yan, Shuiyang would have snatched it from him long ago.

But facing fourth master, Shuiyang didn't dare.

Fourth master waved at Shuiyang at this moment.

Shuiyang's eyes lit up, and he ran over: "Si, father, you..."

Fourth master flicked the fishing rod and continued fishing, but handed the fishing rod to Shuiyang: "Take it."

When Shuiyang saw five fish, he immediately smiled: "Thank you Si...Father."

Fourth Master nodded with a smile: "Go ahead, I'll catch a few more here, and I'll roast them for you later."

After Shuiyang saluted and thanked him, he went to the village with the fish basket.

After half an hour, I turned back and brought back a basket of cabbage, radish, spinach, onion and garlic.

Emperor Jiahe and Fourth Master had stopped fishing at this time, and they had already packed up four medium-long white strips.

The guards are grilling on the tree branch.

Emperor Jiahe and his father and son were looking at the river beach from a distance, talking about the history of this river beach in a low voice.

Seeing Jia Lian carrying a basket of vegetables, he suspected that they had spent money, and said with a smile, "Yo, business has to be done wrong."

Jia Lian said quickly, "I went to that house to exchange things, and I ran into the grandson who cut the valley.

There are few men in his family, and we are a few helpers.

Then, the old man packed these dishes for us. "

Shuiyang held four eggs.

Emperor Jiahe laughed: "What is this for?"

Shuiyang smiled and said: "The grandson chatted with his grandson and asked his name, he said it was Shi Dian.

The grandson asked what the two characters were, and he said he couldn't write them, but they were the stone rollers used to crush the rice.

The grandson taught his grandson to write his own name.

His mother thanked her grandson for giving these eggs. "

"Two words for four eggs?"

Shuiyang laughed and said, "Three words, his name is Niu Shidun."

Grandfather, grandson is very powerful, right?

In the future, if I can't find anything to eat, I won't be hungry even if I sell calligraphy!

Four eggs, together with spinach, can cook a big pot of soup! "

"Ok!"

Emperor Jiahe beamed: Silly boy, I only exchanged four eggs for three words, and I still feel that I have taken advantage of it.

Jia Lian also laughed in his heart, if this stone drum could keep these three characters for more than ten years, it would be worth a thousand dollars!

The picnic atmosphere is very good today.

You can't go back immediately after eating, you have to rest and digest.

At such a time, Emperor Jiahe took fourth master Shuiyang for a walk.

Fourth master also asked a few things about Shuiyang's study.

Shuiyang is currently reciting homework sentence by sentence.

The main content is the university, and a small part is the Book of Songs.

Fourth Master asked how many times a day he had to read and how much he had recited.He also asked how many articles he practiced every day.

Fourth Master had asked Lin Ruhai these questions earlier, if Shuiyang dared to lie, he would be exposed immediately.

Suo Xing Shuiyang has developed good habits since he was a child, and he is a child who can't lie.

Responding one by one, there is no loophole.

From the corner of Jia Lian's eyes, Emperor Jiahe and the fourth master Shuiyang were covered.

Fourth Master's gaze would often fall on Shuiyang unconsciously.

It's just that the eyes are calm and unwavering, bottomless.

Jia Lian didn't know what he was thinking.

However, it is certain that at the moment, fourth master has no liking for Shuiyang.

It's like looking at a partner's eyes.

When Emperor Jiahe looked at Shuiyang, his love and affection were clear at a glance.

Jia Lian couldn't help worrying about Shuiyang in his heart. If Emperor Jiahe was a little early, Shuiyang would be a little hanging.

Jia Lian was worried about His Majesty's health, and hoped that Emperor Jiahe would at least live until Shuiyang became an adult.

Time soon arrived in early June.

Si Ye brought officials from the Ministry of Rites to pay his respects and asked about Wanshou.

Emperor Jiahe was still unwilling to return to Beijing, and he did not accept the worship of all officials, only saying that he was irritable and did not want to see people.

In mid-June, Jia Lian gave Shuiyang a half-day vacation, and he wanted to go home.

Shuiyang understood in seconds: "Master, do you want to buy a birthday gift for grandma?"

Jia Lian nodded: "I have good pomegranates at home. Do you want to eat some pomegranates? How many shall I bring for you?"

In the past, Shuiyang didn't eat pomegranates. Although they look pretty, they are troublesome to eat. Not only can't eat anything into their stomachs, their mouths are full of scum and their teeth are smashed, and their hands are also sticky.

Very uncomfortable.

This time, he nodded: "Bring a few."

He doesn't like eating pomegranates.

However, his sister likes to eat pomegranates.

My sister likes to eat one by one.

That gesture seemed more delicious than his eating roasted venison.

This time, he wanted to savor the taste of his sister eating pomegranate.

Then he asked Jia Lian: "My sister also has it? You give it to my sister first, and then bring the rest to me."

Jia Lian patted Shuiyang and sighed.

This little grandson is so obedient that it is unbearable.

When Jia Lian returned home, he went to Rongqing Hall to pay his respects to his grandmother, and discussed with his grandmother about the birthday gift on the Longevity Day.

Shi Mei recruited Mrs. Zhang, and Jia Zhu, the eldest grandson of the second household, came to discuss with them.

The two rooms agreed with Shi Mei's opinion, although His Majesty does not accept courtiers' birthday greetings.

However, the gift of Wanshou cannot be saved.

As for what gift to give, Jia Lian had a different opinion from her grandmother.

Jia Lian argued that since His Majesty does not accept pilgrimage, it is estimated that some formal gifts will not be accepted either.

Such as beautiful jade, screens, and antiques, Emperor Jiahe didn't pay attention at all.

Jia Lian said: "Isn't there a lotus pomegranate at home that is ripe, and each of these spiritual plants picks a basket and sends it away. Your Majesty may like it more.

Besides, His Majesty likes the spirit tea at home very much, so why not take the leftover tea into the palace for a catty or two. "

Shimei is now expanding its planting, and can produce more than ten catties of high-quality tea a year.

Jia Lian stated: "The half catty of tea in the grandson's room has not been opened, and the grandson is willing to take it out."

Jia Lian actually had a catty of tea, and he gave half a catty to Yan Hou, his father-in-law.

Shi Mei thought it was a good idea.Even if respect is expressed, it will not make people feel flattered.

Shi Mei said that she had moved out her own case.

Mrs. Zhang naturally obeyed her mother-in-law and her son, but said: "Why should you wrong mother, Cong'er doesn't drink tea."

He also suggested whether to go to Yan Hou's house.

Now Yingchun Xichun is helping, and Ye Yun and Yuanchun are secretly assisting.

Mrs. Zhang is not bad for her daughter-in-law, but she is anxious and delays her grandson.

Jia Lian is also twenty this year.

There are two Yuanchun Jia Cong waiting to get married.

Jia Cong is not in a hurry, the Du family has asked about Yuan Chun's marriage several times.

Shi Mei actually wanted to take advantage of Jia Lian's marriage to keep Yuanchun a few more years.

It is safer for girls to get married when they are older, and it is safer to have children.

However, Mrs. Zhang was in a hurry. Jia Lian didn't care much about his family now, and he was all about working in front of the imperial court.

Mrs. Zhang was very afraid that Hou Yan's family would have ideas.

In fact, Yan Hou's family is kept in the dark except Mrs. Yan Hou and Shui Ling.

The two sensible people, the old lady and Yan Hou, were very grateful to Jia Lian.

Although Mrs. Chen did not show up in public, she often went to Jingshan to visit her grandson.

She knew that Jia Lian took good care of Shuiyang from life to study.

As for why Madam Yan Hou and Shui Ling were not informed of the truth.

Because, Yanhou Mansion must really lose his son.

Madam Yan Hou also had to show the pain of losing her son in order to hide it from everyone's eyes and ears.

I didn't hide it from the old lady, because she is the decision maker.

Secondly, she would often meet with His Majesty, and she couldn't hide it.

Three years later, she was aged and couldn't bear the blow.

Here, the old lady of the Duke of Yan's mansion learned that the three generations of the Rong mansion's grandparents came to visit, and at the same time ordered the middle door to be opened to welcome her.At the same time, someone went to inform his son to return home.

Madam Yan Hou is still seriously ill, although she is not skinny, but her complexion is pale.

Jia Lian came to visit with his grandmother and mother.

Madam Yan Hou cried a lot when she saw Jia Lian.

This woman's heart is broken into eight petals, and she has to hurt her youngest son who died young, and she also feels sorry for her daughter who missed the flowering period.

However, now she really can't bring herself to prepare for her daughter's marriage.

Shui Ling is also worried about her mother.

Therefore, the marriage was delayed.

Therefore, facing her son-in-law, Mrs. Yan Hou felt very guilty.

Jia Lian repeatedly said that it doesn't matter if he is not, he can wait.

One year or three years are fine.

Hearing that Jia Lian said that three years would be fine, Mrs. Zhang almost objected, but was stopped by Shi Mei's eyes.

There are sick people in Yan Guogong's mansion, Shi Mei and others are not good to stay, but Jia Lian is left to wait for Yan Hou, Shi Mei leaves the mansion with Zhang Shi.

Then, when the old lady of the Duke of Yan's mansion sent Shi Mei and Mrs. Zhang out, she said: "We won't let the marriage be delayed for three years, and Shui Ling will wear mourning for his younger brother for only one year.

After one year, we will be able to host weddings in our mansion. "

Shi Mei and Mrs. Zhang were very happy to get the letter of approval.

Not long after Shi Mei left the house, Marquis Yan returned home.

Jia Lian then followed Yanhou back to the old lady Xuantang.

Yanhou may have an agreement with Jiahe Emperor Fourth Master.

Since the grandson of the Six Emperors entered the palace, Marquis Yan seldom entered the palace to meet Emperor Jiahe.

The old lady had limited contact with her grandson.

Because the emperor and grandson want to study and practice martial arts, they don't have much time to play with their grandmother and grandfather.

Therefore, the mother and son listened very carefully to Jia Lian's narration, for fear of making any mistakes.

Hearing how Lin Ruhai was patient and meticulous with the emperor and grandson, the mother and son were very grateful.

The old lady left a meal and ordered Shui Ling's elder brother Shui Che to accompany Jia Lian to the backyard to relax.

In fact, it was for the unmarried couple Jia Lian Shui Ling to meet.

As for whether Jia Lian will reveal the secret, both mother and son believe in Jia Lian's integrity and overall view.

Now that we have reached this point, there is nothing wrong with one step.

Jia Lian and Uncle Shui Chelang left Xuantang.

Old Mrs. Chen sighed a long time and said, "Looking at your daughter-in-law, I really can't bear it.

This matter is that we are sorry for our daughter-in-law. I will not interfere with how many women you find in the future.

However, no children can be born.

Don't say I can't get over it, Xiaoliu won't forgive me if she knows the truth in the future. "

Marquis Yan said: "Your Majesty is arbitrary in this matter, and we have no control over it."

Old Madam Chen said: "Then be more considerate to the Mei family. Those childless Yingying and Yanyan in the backyard will be sent away, and it will be fine to keep a few old ones."

The old lady's words are not aimless, there are really many people who send beauties to Hou Yan.

The Marquis of Yan took them all and kept them in a large courtyard.

Mrs. Chen got upset just thinking about it.

That day Jia Lian had dinner at Yan Hou's mansion before returning home, and then came to pay Shi Mei's greetings.

When discussing the birthday ceremony before, Shi Mei saw Jia Lian's expression, showing a melancholy that was not commensurate with her age.

Shi Mei thought that His Majesty was afraid of something bad.

At this time, he dismissed the crowd and said: "Your Majesty's health is not very good?"

Jia Lian was stunned.

Grandma suddenly asked such a question, and Jia Lian was a little confused: "Ah? No."

Shi Mei said: "No?

Why are you restless, and why are you recruiting Luo Lingzhi to take care of your body for His Majesty?

I asked your second uncle to look for you several times, saying that you were not on duty in the afternoon, but he disappeared.

You didn't go home either, is there someone outside?You can't mess around.

Today, Mrs. Chen, the grandmother of Shui Ling girl, said that she will arrange marriage for you next year at the latest.

Ling'er girl is a good girl, her mother has always been served by her herself, and she never pretends to be a girl.

Such a girl is rare, so don't make fun of it. "

Jia Lian was really wronged, but he couldn't explain it, so he had to explain vaguely: "Your Majesty entrusted my grandson with an errand, and my grandson has been busy with it these days.

You know Second Uncle's temperament, I was afraid that Second Uncle would leak after drinking a few glasses of wine, and he often went to the Wang's house for entertainment, so I didn't dare to let Second Uncle know. "

Shi Mei nodded, and then asked worriedly: "Is there really nothing wrong with Your Majesty?"

Jia Lian said: "It's almost the same as before, I still feel sad, I'm thinner than before, and I often close my eyes and meditate by myself.

The spirit is not bad.

In short, the grandson feels that there is no change from the beginning of the year.

Because every time the imperial physician came to ask for the pulse, the grandson would take the initiative to avoid it. "

Shi Mei calculated again, and there was no record of the death of the old emperor in the red building.

Yuanchun concubine should be at 23.

At that time, the old emperor was still struggling with the young emperor for power.

When the concubine died, the old prince was still alive and well.

At that time, Baoyu was sixteen.

Later, there was no mention of the death of the old emperor.

How to calculate, the old emperor can live for at least ten years.

The old emperor is 77 this year, could he live to be 90 years old?

This is modeled after Qianlong!

Shi Mei breathed a sigh of relief, probably the old emperor is fine right now.

In view of Jia Lian's concern about Emperor Jiahe's body, and because Emperor Jiahe did not sit on the throne, it would be more beneficial to Rongfu.

Shi Mei made a fuss and picked several baskets of fresh fruits such as lotus rice and peaches at home.

Pomegranates are easy to wither in storage, and pomegranate wine is made from pomegranates.

Together with the wine at home, two jars of pomegranate wine were also presented to His Majesty.

If you don't give expensive gifts, you have to put together a few more things, otherwise it won't look like it.

Jia Lian also entrusted his grandmother to carve a pendant for Shuiyang with the Lingyu gifted by His Majesty.

It was agreed that Xiumu would come back to pick it up next time.

Jia Lian only said vaguely that the sixth prince's birthday was coming soon, and did not elaborate on the rest.

Shi Mei then asked: "Are you very familiar with the little emperor's grandson?

Is the little emperor's grandson fully recovered?

I heard that he was poisoned deeply, there must be some sequelae, right? "

Jia Lian's eyes tightened for a while, and then he said calmly: "I'm a little weak, the sequelae are fine, my grandson is only on duty in front of the imperial court, and my grandson doesn't know anything about asking for pulse."

Jia Lian pushed it all out.

However, Shi Mei noticed that when Jia Lian mentioned the sixth prince, his breath was a little unsteady.

Shi Mei suspected that Jia Lian had a very close relationship with the sixth emperor's grandson, but he didn't want outsiders to know.

Shi Mei became a little suspicious because of this.

Jia Lian is a guard with a knife in front of the imperial court.

The little grandson is raised in front of His Majesty.

Jia Lian's contact with the little emperor's grandson is not a secret at all.

However, Jia Lian kept a secret about the little emperor's grandson, for fear of leaking any news.

Jia Lian never hides anything from her.

Shi Mei felt that Jia Lian's behavior was not right.

However, Shi Mei doesn't know how to read minds either, so she has no choice but to keep silent.

The next day.

Jia Min arrived at Rongfu.

Since Ruhai was on duty in Yuqian, he went home once every ten days.

Because sapphire, purple jade and Daiyu are all attached to schools in Rongfu.

Jia Min escorted the children here every morning, sometimes they went home, and sometimes they rested in Rongqingtang if they didn't like it.

On this day, Ruhai went to the palace to accompany him, and Jia Min followed the three children to Rongfu.

Suddenly, Shi Mei's heart moved, and she asked Jia Min: "Is my uncle still serving as an attendant in front of His Majesty?"

The old emperor has poor eyesight and needs someone to read to him, or to read memorials.

Jia Min said: "It seems so.

He didn't speak carefully.

However, these days, Xianggong found out some of his childhood reading notes one after another, and some annotated books, some were given to Qingyu Ziyu, some were taken away, and he said he was going to give it to someone..."

Shi Mei had doubts from the beginning.

Hearing this, my brain opened up with a bang.

The old emperor definitely didn't need the reading notes and annotations from his childhood.

Who else is in the palace?

It must be the grandson of the Six Emperors.

Why should Lin Ruhai worry about the sixth emperor's grandson?

The answer is about to come out.

Lin Ruhai became the emperor's grandson's master.

The emperor's grandson was still lingering on the sick bed a few years ago, and all those who were poisoned died young, but he was the only one who survived strong.

However, May started reading.

There is only half a year in between.

The emperor's grandson not only recovered, but also started to study?

Shi Mei knows the hard work of studying.

The children in Rongfu have all practiced martial arts since they were young, so they don't need to start studying.

Shaking my head with the master every day, I feel tired after reading it dozens of times.

A five-year-old child was out of danger in the twelfth lunar month.Start school in May every year?

His brothers are all dead, and his uncles are still lingering on the sick bed?

This grandson...

Suddenly, Shi Mei remembered Jia Lian's worry.

He is a talented young man, favored by the emperor, and he will be admitted to the junior high school soon after his senior graduation. What is there to worry about?

The grandson of the Yanhou family!

Shi Mei couldn't believe this answer...

Shi Mei was also depressed.

The emperor who copied the house!

That night, Shi Mei went to offer incense to Jia Daishan: "I have tried my best.

Today's things are beyond my control. You have a spirit in heaven, so please protect your grandson.

Bless the old emperor to live for a long time, live until that child can be alone! "
