The Red Chamber: My Stunning Confidante with a Variety of Styles
Chapter 219 Looking forward to your arrival
Capital, Baifu.
As a prominent family in the capital, the Bai family has always been visited by visitors.
But today, the White House is closed and no visitors are accepted.
The reason was because Bai Ying, the ancestor of the Bai family, was receiving a distinguished guest. As for who that distinguished guest was and what he looked like, no one knew.
"After so many years, brother Liu Sheng, you are still so mysterious."
In the study room, an old man with white beard and hair said to the thin figure wrapped in a cloak.
This old man is Cao Shida's teacher!
And that thin figure was Liu Sheng sent by Tang Zexiong.
"I'm the same old man, but Brother Bai is really good at it. He turned from a traitor that everyone shouts and beats to an emperor teacher that everyone respects." Liu Sheng said in a strange voice.
Bai Ying used to be the grand tutor, and she had a lot of power for a while.
He was stunned when he heard the words, and said coldly: "Could it be that your excellency is drunk and talking such nonsense?"
Liu Sheng smiled strangely: "Bai Ying, there are only two people waiting here, who are you showing?"
Baiying's face became even colder: "If you keep talking nonsense like this, don't blame me for not caring about my past friendship."
Liu Sheng glanced at him and nodded, "Okay, I'll just leave it alone."
Bai Ying's expression became better now: "Tell me, what is the matter of coming to look for me this time?"
"You don't know?" Liu Sheng asked back.
Bai Ying suddenly smiled: "Could it be that you want me to facilitate the marriage?"
"Would you like to help?"
Bai Ying picked up the cup, took a sip, and asked leisurely, "What's the reason?"
Liu Sheng stared at him deeply: "Bai Ying, you haven't changed at all, it's better to die."
Bai Ying didn't speak, just drinking tea. Although he was asking why, he was actually waiting for the other party's quotation.
Liu Sheng was silent for a while, before he opened his mouth: "20 taels of silver, [-] dead soldiers."
Bai Ying put down her cup, smiled lightly and said, "Can the majestic first family of Fusang only have these?"
Liu Sheng said coldly: "You only need to say a word in front of the emperor! Besides, do you think that only you can do this?"
Bai Ying squinted her eyes, with a calm expression on her face: "Oh? I don't know who else are you looking for?"
"Jia Jue."
Bai Ying's heart skipped a beat. Jia Jue won three prizes in a row and won the first prize. He was the first prize in high school, and he was named the servant of the emperor. No one can match the grandeur of the holy family. If he came forward to facilitate this matter, I'm afraid it will really happen.
"If you want Jia Jue to come forward, you will have to pay many times over," he said.
Liu Sheng looked straight at him.
"This guy is not simple. The person behind him is very powerful, so how can a little profit move him?" Bai Ying said.But after the words fell, his heart had a flash of inspiration, and a wonderful idea appeared in his mind.
"Liu Sheng, you and I are old acquaintances. How can I just sit idly by and ignore you when you have a difficult matter? Well, I don't want money or dead soldiers. I only want one thing. If you can give me that thing, I will help you facilitate this." He added.
"Oh? What do you want?"
Bai Ying looked at him, and said word by word: "The formula of Brain God Pill."
"Don't even think about it!" Liu Sheng's voice was full of annoyance, "Brain God Pill is a secret of my family, how can I give it to you!"
Bai Ying quickly said: "Okay, I don't want pills, but I just want a Brain God pill, right?"
"No! It's not easy to refine the Brain God Pill. It takes decades to make one. At this time, I only have three in my hand." Liu Sheng still shook his head.
Bai Ying sighed: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work either, you can't let you take all the benefits, and I sold this old face for no reason, right?"
The look in Liu Sheng's eyes changed for a while. After he weighed it, he finally took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom and threw it to him:
"The Brain God Pill is in it. I've given you something. I'll wait for your news."
After speaking, he left quickly.
Bai Ying looked at the small porcelain bottle in her hand, a flash of light flashed in her eyes:
It would be an excellent thing if he could control Jia Jue in his hands. Whether it was Zhao Qi or the people behind Jia Jue, they were all in his calculations.
He walked outside the door, called a confidant, and told him:
"Let Zi Yan come to see me quickly."
……
"I don't see a sparrow in the hedge, but I see a harrier throwing itself into the trap."
After seeing off Tang Zexiong, Jia Jue recited a poem happily.
He originally thought that he was going to visit Honglu Temple at night, but he didn't expect that he would take the initiative to send it to the door.
How could he let go of such an excellent opportunity at the right time and place.
At the moment, while talking with Tang Zexiong, he kept planting psychological hints, and finally succeeded in hypnotizing him, digging out the inside story of this incident from his mouth.
This matter has to start from the country of Fusang. The Lord of Fusang is old, and he is about to die.
Among his many heirs, the second and third princes are the most likely to inherit the throne.
Tang Zexiong's family supports the second prince, but their opponent is the third prince who supports it.
Originally, the two forces were relatively balanced, and no one could overwhelm the other.
However, the third prince suddenly married the princess of Goguryeo, which not only received strong foreign support, but also made his domestic prestige soar, and the second prince fell into a disadvantage in an instant.
Therefore, Tang Zexiong's family couldn't wait to retaliate by marrying the princess of the Han Dynasty, and even paid a high price.
Of course, he doesn't have a good impression of the Han people. In his plan, in addition to using the status of the princess to consolidate the second prince's position, and using the power of the court to help the second prince ascend the throne, he also formulated some plans to use the princess. Identity, to plunder the plan of the Han people.
For example, in his plan, if he was in a disadvantaged position when confronted with the third prince, he would use the death of the princess to motivate the imperial court to send troops.
In short, this Tang Zexiong is a qualified family heir and politician, with a vicious heart and cruel methods.
Although Jia Jue knew the inside story, he didn't intend to report it to Zhao Qi immediately. The efficiency was too high, which would arouse suspicion, especially if Zhao Qi was still so suspicious.
In addition, he also needs a certain amount of time to plan how to protect Zhao Jing and gain benefits from it.
It's reasonable to talk about it in a few days.
Just when he was planning to go back to Linglong Xiaozhu, a servant came to report suddenly, someone sent an invitation card.
He opened the invitation and looked at it, but saw a few lines of beautiful small characters written on it:
Farewell to the Flower God, how are you doing?
Wen Jun dominates the ranking list, Jinshi and the first place, the concubine is very happy, I would like to dance a light dance for you, congratulations to Jun high school.
Qingxin Yayuan, Ziyan, I hope you will come.
This is actually Zi Yan's invitation to him.
Seeing this, Jia Jue frowned slightly. None of these world-renowned courtesans was simple.
It might not be that simple for her to see herself at this time.
Do you want to see her yourself?
