[Red Mansion] Master Jia

"Ah? Are you from the Jia family?"

Jia Lian had a smile on his lips, and looked at the boy with a smile in his eyes.

Before, he guessed that the two people in front of him were either the princes or the yellow belts of the clan.Judging from the sound of "Sixteen", the young man in front of him should undoubtedly be the sixteenth elder brother Yinlu, and the older one should be the first elder brothers. From the historical results, Yinlu is a hardcore The Four Brothers are a party.

The results are already obvious.

The last time Jia Lian came into contact with Ninth Brother Yinzhen, he had no intention of getting close to them.He is now a member of the Jia family, and he has already set foot on a rotten boat, so why bother to board Eighth Prince's gorgeous-looking boat that is destined to sink.

Choosing or being close to the future emperor is obviously beneficial to his plan to build a tower.

Jia Lian looked away, and his eyes fell on Yinzhen, who was opposite Yinlu, with a very "soft" expression.

Yin Zhen frowned, he was not as innocent as Xiao Sixteen, looking at Jia Lian's appearance, he guessed their identities.

Children of the Rongguo Mansion?

Hmph, she does have good eyes.

Yinzhen touched the emerald jade ring on his thumb, and suddenly asked Jia Lian, "Are you Jia Daishan's grandson?"

Before Jia Lian spoke, Xue Pan said in surprise, "Yeah", "How do you know?" He turned to Jia Lian and asked, "Second brother Lian, did you report your identity just now? Why don't I remember..."

The corner of Jia Lian's mouth twitched, too lazy to talk to him.He cupped his hands towards Yinzhen, and said, "Jia Lian, I have seen..."

"Call me Fourth Master." Yinzhen rubbed his fingers and took a sip of tea. "This is Lord Sixteen." Now that his identity has been exposed, there is no need to hide it.

Xue Pan kept his mouth slightly open.Recently Lian's second brother was talking to someone, why didn't he understand at all, it was the same last time, alas.He scratched his head in frustration, and muttered softly, "How did you know?"

Fool!Yin Lu glanced at him instead.This person's brain is not very good. It is obvious that they have conflicts with that Hanyu from Jia's family. They also exposed their identities just now, so it's probably not far off the mark.

"Fourth Master, Sixteenth Master." Jia Lian nodded in salute, thinking that it was indeed Prince Yong and Sixteenth Elder Brother.

"Hearing people say that about your brother—are you not angry?" Yinzhen asked playfully.

"It's just a cousin." Jia Lian added.

When Yinzhen and Yinlu heard this, they both raised their eyebrows, knowing instantly.It seems that the two houses of the Jia family are really at odds.

"But Jia Lian who passed the Jinling Mansion Junior Sanyuan?" Yinzhen was surprised.

Jia Lian said "yes", Yinzhen really didn't expect that Jia Lian was Jia Lian from Rongguo Mansion.

In terms of the small three yuan, it is nothing, but this year the only scholar who has won the small three yuan in the whole country is the Jinling Mansion.

It was only then that Yinzhen began to look at Jia Lian carefully, and was obviously very interested in him, but he kept ignoring Xue Pan who was next to him.Xue Pan didn't care, he drank by himself and continued to listen to those individuals "chatting" Baoyu by the way.

Yinlu also looked at Xue Pan with enthusiasm, this person looked very clear, the people in the palace were not so simple and straightforward to be interesting.

At this time, Yinzhen exchanged a few words with Jia Lian. During the conversation, he found that Jia Lian had something to say, and he was not like an ignorant person. He didn't take it seriously, and even he wondered if the magistrate of Jinling had done the trick, after all, the Jia family was deeply rooted there.

Observing Jia Lian silently, Yinzhen began to have some thoughts of soliciting.In other words, the Jia family was once in the emperor's heart. The former Jia Daishan was a close minister of the emperor, and was highly valued by the emperor. It is a pity that there are no successors in Rongning and Ningfu...

Jia Lian answered Yinzhen with a few words, with some utilitarian thoughts in mind, his attitude and answers were considered submissive, and Yinzhen didn't mind.If he really knew their identities and pretended to be ignorant or self-indulgent, he might not be angry, but he would definitely think that this person is not what he looks like, and he is used to putting on an air.

The two talked about the end, and Yinzhen knew that Shi Taijun of Rongguo Mansion actually prevented his grandson from making progress, and pressed him not to let him continue the rural examination.

"What kind of talk is this!" Yinzhen said angrily. The imperial examination is a grand ceremony for the country to recruit talents. In order to balance the power of the two families, a woman actually suppresses her eldest grandson from taking the exam. What a shame!

Jia Lian smiled wryly, then put on a dejected look, and laughed at himself: "Perhaps my ancestors were right. I am not as good as the late brother Zhu of the second room. Being a scholar is already a virtue of my ancestors, and I still focus on being me." It's just a playboy."

Yinzhen tapped his knuckles on the table, Yinlu's expression was puzzled and angry.

Xue Pan also heard a few words at this time, and yelled: "Second Brother Lian, what kind of scholar are you looking for? According to me, you just wait for the title. What's the point of studying."

He curled his lips, looking resentful.The fact that Jia Lian was admitted as a scholar gave Aunt Xue some hope. After all, this is also a typical example of "the prodigal son turns back", and was used by his mother and sister to educate him.

Jia Lian shook his head and sighed: "You don't understand. This title will come to an end one day... People who have no foresight must have near-term worries. Besides, I also want to share the worries of the court and do something for the people." In front of Liu Ye, he still had to express his opinion.

Jia Lian had been secretly thinking about the township examination in his heart.He didn't want to do what Jiamu and the others wished. It's one thing for him to take the exam, but another thing to be pressured not to take the exam.

If he really participated in the provincial examination, according to the rules, he really had to go back to Jinling to take the examination, and he could only participate in the capital after the general examination.

It stands to reason that Jia's Mansion is an old noble family after all, and if other family examination talents have some connections, they can also take the exam in the capital, let alone Juren. The exams in Shuntian Mansion have always been much easier than those in Jiangnan. One went back to Jinling to take the Juren exam.But the premise of these is that the Rongguo Mansion has to take care of it.

But Jia She, who was admitted as a scholar as his son and gained a lot of face outside, actually went to meet a few friends in private because of this matter, but it was a pity that Jia She came back with a stinky face, and instead avoided seeing Jia Lian.As soon as Jia Lian saw it, he knew that he couldn't do this. Jia Amnesty's ability was limited, and the Rongguo Mansion was also in the west, and no one gave him face.

What's more, there are also the handwriting of Jia Mu and Jia Zheng.

Yinzhen knocked on the table with his fingers for a long while, and after pondering for a long time, he said to Jia Lian: "I know about this matter. The guarantor and the qualifications for the test will take care of it for you." Speaking of this, he glanced at Jia Lian with special meaning , Jia Lian was grateful, and he continued: "In a few days, you will take the exam directly at Shuntian Mansion..."

"Thank you for your kindness!" Jia Lian bowed his hands, as if he had accepted the love of the fourth elder brother.They looked at each other and knew a lot.

Yinzhen can now be sure that Jia Lian from Rongfu can even be said to be knowledgeable and talented, and has an extraordinary character, and is not as incompetent as the rumors say.The sons of honorable families in the middle of the capital, he has an account in his heart. Jia She and Jia Lian's father and son were all of the same kind in previous reports: dandy, lustful, incompetent and talented.The obvious contrast between before and after made Yinzhen's curiosity about Jia Lian aroused in his heart, but just raising his hand, maybe he could get another talent and help in the future.At this moment, he thought of Wang Ziteng from Daying in the suburbs of Beijing. They were relatives by marriage.

When Xue Pan went back, he asked Jia Lian, "What is Chengqing?" and "Who is this fourth master?" Xue Pan was really curious. Let me tell you. The fourth master is the current fourth prince—that is, Prince Yong. "

"What, what?" Xue Pan stammered.

"And the ninth master and the third master from last time are both the current princes."

After Jia Lian finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows slantingly, and looked at Xue Pan leisurely.

Xue Pan's face suddenly turned red when he thought of what he said to the "Ninth Master" last time, and his heart felt a little guilty. He said he didn't say anything that was taboo.

"Brother Lian, brother Lian, please save me! Last time I..." Xue Pan slapped his thigh, wanting to cry, "I didn't commit a capital crime, did I?"

"What capital crime?" Jia Lian smiled, "Just be more careful in what you say in the future."

"Second Brother Lian, I'll mess with you from now on." Xue Pan pondered for a while, then suddenly said this.

This second elder brother Lian seems to have a real future. I didn't see that the elder brother, the prince, paid so much attention to him after talking with him. Just now, Prince Yong wanted to deal with the second elder brother Lian's qualifications for the exam.

Jia Lian glanced at Xue Pan unexpectedly, and asked slowly, "You, have you thought about it?"

"Thought it out!" Xue Pan nodded vigorously. Lian's second elder brother looked promising. The Jia family, mother, and younger sister all said that Jia Baoyu would be promising in the future, and he also had a sister in the palace. But he, Xue Pan, didn't see what was so great about that "stone". On the contrary, Lian's second elder brother not only passed the examination as a scholar, but was also treated so well by the princes when he went out... Xue Pan is not stupid!

Pooh!Don't think that he doesn't know the nicknames of "Big Xue" and "Big Xue".

Jia Lian remembered the fan problem that Jia She had mentioned before, so he stopped for a while on the road, but Liulichang found three good-looking ancient fans, a total of 1000 taels of silver. He took out all the silver, happened to be enough, and slapped it on the table with a "slap", and continued to carry forward his bold style, saying that he paid the silver.

Jia Lian was disrespectful.

After returning to Jia's mansion, Jia Lian pondered whether it was time to unleash his ultimate move.

Jia's mother wanted to balance the house, so that the first house and the second house were equally snobbish. When the two houses fought, they would not hesitate to let him suppress her "talent", and she sat in the middle of the show, depending on whether he was willing or not.

Jia Lian sneered, his eyes were dark, and the cold light flashed away - it was time for the witnesses from Jinling to appear!

Calling Xing'er and Long'er to come in, Jia Lian met Jia She again alone, and presented three ancient fans.Seeing that he had finished admiring it, Jia Lian talked about Mrs. Wang's sale of sacrifice fields.

Jia Amnesty couldn't care less about the fan he just got, and his complexion suddenly changed.

His eyes were wide open, he gritted his teeth and said, "You are so bold! You are too deceitful!"

Although he wanted to sell the land for offering sacrifices when he had no money, he refrained from doing so.This Mrs. Wang is such a daring dog!He insisted on letting the second child divorce her.Otherwise, separate completely.Erfang, get him out of Rongguo Mansion!

Jia Amnesty has long wanted to drive the second wife out of the house, but since Jia's mother is still alive, whoever brings this up first will be unfilial.Unfilial piety is a heinous crime.

Jia Lian saw that Jia She was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, and his provocative purpose had already achieved more than half: "Master, this matter must not only be reported to the old lady, but also to the clan..."

"Yes, Lian'er, you are absolutely right!" Jia Amnesty rubbed his hands and walked around a few times. "As for the sacrificial fields, although our Rongning and Ningfu prefectures manage them separately, in short they are together in name, and selling the sacrificial fields is a major event for the whole family.

Ha ha!The Wang family committed such a heinous crime, let's see what the second child's family is still arrogant about?

"My lord, the witnesses and account books are all in the hands of my son. It's too late, I'm afraid it will leak." Jia Lian said cautiously.Except for magic, he never dared to underestimate the scheming Mrs. Wang.

"Yes, this matter has to be done immediately." After Jia She said that, he couldn't wait for the next day, so he took Jia Lian straight to Ning Mansion without even eating dinner.

After entering the Ningguo Mansion, Jia Lian still twitched his fingers slowly. This was his habit before casting spells, and he didn't get rid of it after his rebirth.He squinted his eyes and looked at Jia She, who was walking like the wind in front of him, and felt that it was too troublesome to have to go back and forth every time he did something to let his father in this body stand out.

Perhaps, at the right time, he can replace Jia She and directly control the Rongguo Mansion...
