Jia She, the drama of Red Mansions

"A rich life really limits my imagination of poverty!" Jia She reflected, and then boasted, "But I have a good plot, right?"

Jia Zhen nodded like a pest, and urged another update, "Uncle Xi, hurry up and continue writing. One tael of silver and one egg are fine, as long as the words are good-looking. Haven't we all eaten chickens raised with ginseng?"

"It's a big crowd, so be careful what you say." Mu Shi said angrily, "Do you think Brother Jing doesn't build enough houses?"

"Uncle Mu, isn't my father an official? How can he build houses?"

Hearing this, Jia Amnesty tugged at Jia Zhen's sleeve and cast a warning look.His brother Jing's official position is the Ministry of Construction and Cleaning up officials, in charge of the construction and repair of palaces and government offices. To be simple and crude, it is not just a house repair.What's more, now that the princes are choking that dim-witted one, brother Jing has too strong a brand of empress and son party, and everyone wants to choke the last power of the abolished prince.

Looking at Jia She's pensive look, Mu Shi had a smile on his lips, and looked at the upstairs in the evening sun.

This building is well-known in the capital. Apart from the luxurious decoration, the food is really good, and the cooks are served by old imperial chefs. The most important reason is the owner behind it—Huang Liuye.

Anyone with a little family background knows it.Emperor Dejia, ranked sixth, loves the pseudonym Huang Liu Weifu.This is one of his private properties.Therefore, these rich and idle people basically come here for meals and banquets, and make some contributions to Huang Liuye's purse.

As soon as the three of them stepped into it, they saw a commotion coming from the stairs.Jia Zhen inquired curiously, and found out that a new rich man wanted to eat in the private room on the third floor, but the private room was full today, so she got angry and threatened to buy a restaurant, and immediately shared the gossip with Jia She and Mu Shi.At the end, Jia Zhen shook her head and sighed: "How can there be such a stupid person? I know that persimmons have to be picky. You must first inquire about your wealth and background."

"You really have self-knowledge. But the third floor is full?" Jia She was horrified, "Is it possible that all the royal relatives in the capital are here?"

The third floor is quite big, and entertains the relatives of the emperor, old ministers, powerful dignitaries and so on.In the past, he, Jia She, might be able to go up to the third floor, but now that his father left, it would be considered decent for him to be able to stay in the box on the second floor.

The shopkeeper who persuaded the troublemaker to leave saw the three people coming slowly. After saluting, he carefully offered a bamboo stick to Mu Shi with both hands. He was a little numb at the moment, who was used to smiling and dancing with long sleeves, and only smiled politely. , and said: "Master Lingfang, let me tell you, this is the only lot left. You have to be called to consult about repairs."

"Have to be called?" Jia Zhen grasped the point of the words, and raised her sleeves angrily, "Who dares to pull like that? Doesn't this insult my Uncle Mu?"

"It should be your own father." Mu Shi took the bamboo stick in the shopkeeper's hand, and flicked Jia Zhen's forehead, "Before I left today, I received several invitations from my son-in-law, asking me if the house is broken or not."

The princess with brothers was also involved in the battle for the throne, so the son-in-law naturally helped to make the sky dark.Like their few sons-in-law who have no brothers, they can only follow the crowd and destroy a house.After all, only by advancing together and retreating together can we survive the bloody storm.

Unexpectedly, Brother Jing is also a genius, and they all gathered together, and that scene was completely unimaginable.

"Let's eat somewhere else." Mu Shi said decisively.

"That's right, this kind of Shura field can be filled with brain power." Jia She swallowed nervously, "Let's go to Yaxuan to eat."

"Go up and have a look." Jia Zhen was full of curiosity, and pulled one with each hand, very familiar and coquettish: "Uncle, Uncle Mu, I haven't seen what my father looks like in office. I haven't seen so many princes and grandchildren. Besides. , Didn't my father accompany the second prince before? It shouldn't be him."

Hearing the words, the shopkeeper looked at Jia Zhen inexplicably, and wanted to shake his shoulders and growl to tell him, "Because I was with the second prince, I ran into the fourth prince, fifth prince, and sixth prince... and then we all gathered together. Together."

After a stick of incense, Jia Amnesty, with Mu Shi in his left hand and Jia Zhen in his right hand, walked up the steps cautiously with a complex appearance of watching a play, three parts nervous, three parts hopeful and one part anxious.

Holding his breath and holding his breath, he arrived at the largest Tianzi hall on the third floor. Jia She looked at the scene before him in disbelief. His brother Jing was sitting in the middle, with the prince on the left and the son-in-law on the right.Everyone is holding a book, the name of the book is "Yin Wen Wen"!

This is simply the scene of passing on and selling in the later generations!

In particular, his brother Jing still said in a serious way: "As the saying goes, one fate, two luck and three Fengshui, since you nobles want to build a house, you should naturally understand some Fengshui. Take the house as your home, if you live in peace, the family will be prosperous. If you are uneasy, the family will decline.]..."

Jia Amnesty looked dazed.

Mu Shi's tone was a little uncertain, "Did we go to the wrong place?"

"That's right." Hearing the thought outside the house, someone came out of the house openly and greeted with a smile: "Big brother-in-law, Enhou, Jia Zhen, come in and listen together. Enhou, I didn't expect you to respect brother Can read palmistry, sure!"

"Six...six princes, can I, Brother Jing, show you palm reading?" Jia She said in a low voice, becoming more and more uncertain.In his previous life, he respected his brother's beliefs, and he did comment on "Yin Prey Wen", but other than that, he seemed to focus on practicing alchemy, and he had never heard of someone who could read fortune-telling. He only took heavy metal bullets and medicine as elixir scandal.

And to tell fortunes to the royal family, isn't this a Shura field? ! !

"For...for...what?" Jia Amnesty stammered as he felt more and more frightened.

Hearing the words, the sixth prince narrowed his eyes, put his hands on Jia She's shoulders, and said mysteriously: "Career."

Now Jia Zhen also stuttered, "What... karma?" Dear father, my son has eight lives and can't save you!What is the career of the prince besides the throne?

"Hahaha, Marquis Jia En, why are you still so cowardly?" The sixth prince pulled Jia She, whose legs were limp, and laughed loudly, and then slowly explained: "I asked Jia Jing to count it as a marriage! Who told them to say that I have robbed my wife? I don't have a son yet. It's too embarrassing."

Jia She took a deep breath: "What happens after you finish the calculation?"

"My second elder brother is so annoying, he directly said that he would repay the kindness of saving his son with his own body. The fourth elder brother asked Jia Jing if he would like to be his in-laws. The fifth elder brother asked him if he would like to give up his favorite painting. Is it a beating or a beating, the eighth brother asked how people take care of it, the ninth brother..."

The sixth prince counted with his fingers, paused, stepped back into the room, glanced at the unknown ninth prince among the brothers, thought for a while, approached Jia She, and continued to chat: "Oh , Brother Ninth seems to have been robbed of the opportunity to ask questions by Brother Eleven, and Brother Eleven asked if Brother Ten could come out earlier."

After finishing speaking, the sixth prince looked at Jia She's face, and hurriedly said: "This question is too embarrassing, and then everyone came, Brother Jing started to talk about "Yin Prey Wen", seriously teaching the feng shui that needs to be paid attention to when building a house Yes, I almost became sleepy, that is to say, brother Jing is good-looking and has a good voice, so I can listen to it."

"Of course, my father is the best." Jia Zhen said proudly.

Mu Shi looked at the sixth prince silently. He really wanted to know why the sixth prince was confident that he could compete for the crown prince.Jia Zhen outside the womb of the Six Emperors in the palace is a well-known little fat sheep in the entire bureaucratic circle.Of course, before Jia Zhen and the others, Jia She and Dong'an County King were well-known.

Well, he is now Lingfang's son-in-law.

That is, there are many titles!Change it if you want!

"Let's eat somewhere else." Jia Amnesty looked at the missionary scene where the atmosphere was getting weirder, and said solemnly.

Mu Shi nodded.

This time, there is no room for Jia Zhen to act like a spoiled child and drag her away by herself.

The sixth prince opened his lips, looked at the three who left with a nod of his head, and involuntarily glanced into the room, squeezed his fists, unwilling to say goodbye to the three, and walked in by himself.

His mother and concubine said that this kind of group activity must be participated in, otherwise the monthly fee will be deducted.The candidates for his wife changed three times a year. One Shangxiang ran away with a poor scholar; one fell into the water and was hugged by his cousin; No one paid attention to him; therefore, he is the only prince who has left the palace to build a mansion, and still relies on his mother to manage the backyard and rely on his mother to send monthly money.

Just when the sixth prince entered the room mournfully, he suddenly felt a line of sight shot at him sensitively. It was not like the friendly gazes he usually met with his brothers, but instead had an indescribably jealous and murderous look.But when he turned his eyes and glanced over, he found that the row of brothers and sisters-in-law on the opposite side were all honestly like quails.Even the relatives, friends and staff they brought over are honest.

Unknown why, the sixth prince sat down again.

Compared with the carefree sixth prince, Jia Jing, who was only wearing a Taoist robe at the top, had deep eyes, and continued to talk about Feng Shui absent-mindedly, but his thoughts were wandering.

Shen Shen, although he did not appear at the Jia family's banquet to entertain guests, but if it was a family banquet between the two houses, he would also appear as the young master Biao.And this person was originally thought of as a right-hand man.

But in the end, his uncle drove him away without hesitation.Even though he used the reason of returning home for the exam to Jia Amnesty and others, he knew the real reason—Shen Shen possessed, possessed, and desired Jia Amnesty, that kind of exclusiveness and uniqueness.If it's just a general idea of ​​breaking sleeve Longyang, his uncle might not bother to care about it.This kind of thing is very common no matter in the military camp or in the bureaucracy.

Speaking of being discovered, it was because of his stupid son Jia Zhen.

Jia Shishi has a pair of large glazed vases, equal in height.Jia Zhen made a fuss about Jia She and hid it when she was playing hide and seek, but she couldn't get out and dropped the vase.One of them was Jia Zhen's fall, and the other was Shen Shen who came out to hold Jia Zhen, and accidentally fell again.Jia Zhen saw that Jia She was helping Shen Shen to take the responsibility but not helping him, so she got into a temper, hugged his favorite uncle and grandpa and cried, howling earth-shatteringly.

Every old man always has some relatives from the next generation.Besides, at that time, there was only such a fourth generation in the two mansions, the only seedling in a thousand acres, precious.

Furthermore, my uncle wanted to teach Enhou a lesson at that time, since he said he was honest and trustworthy, he had to treat everyone equally.Unexpectedly, after an investigation, his face turned black.The fact is that Shen Shen lured Jia Zhen to die and drill the vase.

At that time, Jia Zhen was just in good health, and even a noisy dog ​​would be disgusted, so even if the investigation was made, not only the uncle, but even Jia Zhen's own father couldn't believe it at first.After all, Shen Shen has always been calm and reliable, honest and grateful, and was played by Jia Zhen several times, and even rode a horse without complaint or regret, and he was full of pampering.It wasn't until he summoned the hidden guards arranged by the prince next to Jia Zhen that he proved the matter.

After investigating along this line, I found out that people treat Jia Zhen well or badly, just to let Jia She spend less time playing with his nephew and be able to be with him.

As for why the prince arranged the hidden guards by Jia Zhen's side, that was helpless.

Strangling Du Miao to death, planting the blame on a certain family, and making the Jia family vengeful with him are relatively easy operations.After all, Jia Zhen is the fourth generation of the Jia family, and is the child of her grandparents, grandparents, generals, marshals, and aunts and concubines.It is also the representative of the political marriage of the first family of generals, officials and officials in the entire court.

In the past 16 years, Jia Zhen has been on the verge of death dozens of times, but inexplicably, she always managed to get out of danger.Even if I killed myself, I was in danger several times, but it is really puzzling. Before the dark guards came out, the vicious dogs ran away, the hornets flew, the water plants did not bind their feet, and they went to the lake to save people, and fell from the rockery No head was injured when the treetop fell, at most a foot was broken and an arm was broken.

Just before, Jia Zhen galloped to death, Hong Xiao seemed to be spiritual, straddled three hunting pits, and got rid of two groups of followers.

Hellish.

Jia Jing's thoughts were drifting, and he sighed psychologically.The future heir has many problems, he cannot leave this world of mortals.

Looking back at the crowded royal family and relatives beside him, Jia Jing squeezed out a slight smile and responded seriously.The other princes are not familiar, and there may be a series of dirty things about seizing the heir, with dirty hands. Although the second prince's methods are cleaner, the chances of winning are not great, and the most important thing is that the second prince is not as smart and decisive as his mother.If you support the superior, you have to fight against your relatives, which is not worthwhile.

For the Jia family, for him, the most cost-effective thing is to create a thing that has never happened in history-to help the deposed prince ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

Of course, a good grandson is fine too.

Just when Jia Jing was planning to turn over his capital and felt like a gambler, Shen Shen, who followed Zhou Shangrui, lowered his eyes to cover the hatred in his eyes.

He hated one word—circle.

He still remembered Jia She's grandmother, the old lady was kind-hearted and persuasive: "Shee'er, it's not that grandma doesn't let you make friends with Shen Shen and take him out to play. But you take him to Mu's house and talk to your elder brother Mu Playing, no. You, Brother Mu, are the eldest grandson of the king of Dongan County, the future prince of the county, and you are the eldest son and direct descendant of Duke Rong, the future heir. Today, the eldest grandson of the Wang family of Beijing, the direct descendant of Duke Xiu's mansion, is also going today. The eldest son and so on, these children are the sons of the same family at worst. It's not that Shen Shen is not good-looking and has a bad temper, but when you think about how you get along, will you say who my father is and how powerful my grandfather is? You let What did Shen Shen say?"

"Maybe your casual words can hurt others. Think about you little stinkers, a bastard came to make friends with you, some of you don't like it. If a child without an official and no rank meets someone who is outspoken, he will What is it like to be ridiculed?"

"But grandma, didn't you teach me how to make friends and judge character? Heroes don't ask where they come from."

"Silly boy, you can tell your background at the banquet. You are going to attend the birthday banquet of the son of the prince of Dong'an County. You are attending on behalf of the Duke of Rongguo. You can teach your friends in private, but you can't bring people to the banquet unless you are strong enough." , To be like your father, from a soldier to a marshal, let others forget that he is the son of the prince, not Jia Yuan's son, but Jia Daishan, even your grandfather can become Jia Daishan's father, you have to fight to the end Only in this way can he be regarded as capable. Of course, he can also be full of talent, unparalleled in the world, and able to make people forget his origin."

"It's so difficult, so difficult, is there something simpler for grandma? Grandma, grandma, grandma, grandma..."

"Xie'er, there is nothing simple. This is the circle, you know? The grandparents fought hard, and your grandparents, Brother Mu, also fought hard. The children who are familiar with you, his father and grandparents either shed blood on the battlefield or suffered ten years of hardship. Reading, you have paid unimaginable heartache and suffering to get you today. Neither Shen Shen’s parents nor grandparents struggled, but you brought him to a celebration banquet for strugglers. This is a humiliation to our hard work and tears. In this world There is no shortcut, your shortcut was created by your father and grandparents."

At that time, he was next door, and he could hear clearly without saying a word.Now, the old lady may have just told him.
