Infrastructure masters in the red building

Jia Fang didn't "officially" wake up the next day until he went up three poles.Seeing him waking up, a young eunuch immediately rushed out of the bedroom to report, and then Dai Quan and Eunuch Dai hurried in and said with a mournful face, "Oh, my good third master, you are finally awake."

Jia Fang pretended not to know anything, stroked the back of his head gently, and asked, "Director Dai, what am I..."

Eunuch Dai stomped his feet and said, "Master Jia, you don't know this, do you? Thanks to you for saving your life yesterday. Otherwise, I don't know where Dai Dai's head is now."

Jia Fang wanted to ask what was going on with the strange case of "calling on the soul" yesterday, so he looked behind Dai Quan.

Dai Quan understood and transferred all the people in his bedroom, and then put a big pillow on Jia Fang's back so that he could lean on comfortably.

Jia Fangyuan was not so weak, but in order to maintain his "dizzy escape" personality, he accepted Mr. Dai's kindness, lay down and asked: "How is it after yesterday? Is Sheng Jia okay?"

He made fun of himself and laughed: "Yesterday I just felt dazed and stared, and my heart seemed to be awake, but I couldn't control myself. Thanks to Mr. Dai for taking care of me, thank you so much."

Dai Quan made a "harmful" sound, and said, "Why are you being polite to the miscellaneous family?"

He asked again with concern: "Do you still feel dizzy? Do you need to see a doctor?" After getting a negative answer, Dai Quan lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Jia, you must have been poisoned yesterday."

Jia Fang knew about it a long time ago—he felt something was wrong at the time, and saw the emperor beside him vomit a mouthful of blood, and immediately realized that there must be something wrong with the incense smoke lingering in the boat hall.

"The imperial physician checked the incense candles left in the ship hall and said that there are two types of poison, one is chronic and the other is acute."

Jia Fang immediately guessed: "Could it be said that the slow one was aimed at the emperor? And the acute one was used by the Taoist priest after I exposed the truth of the illusion?"

Eunuch Dai nodded: "Exactly!"

"Since the last time the emperor went to your mansion to inspect the garden, he occasionally felt a little sick after returning, but it was not a serious illness. It was just that the depression in his heart became heavier and heavier, so he wanted to 'recall the soul'. Who knows, when the Taoist summoned the soul, he lit it The scented candle will release a kind of fragrance, which can make the emperor feel more restless, distracted, and more irritable. At the same time, the feeling of nostalgia will become more urgent, and the more he wants to "recall the soul"..."

"According to the imperial physician, if this continues for three or five times, the emperor's bones will be severely damaged."

Jia Fang asked again: "What about the acute one? I remember that the emperor vomited two mouthfuls of blood yesterday, so there is nothing serious about his body!"

Eunuch Dai smiled and said, "So it's all thanks to you, Mr. Jia?"

"The imperial doctor said that this acute medicine would have caused great damage to the emperor's body, but fortunately, the inhalation time was short, and he left the ship's hall not long after, and entered an open place, no longer inhaling those fumes. , so the medicine was stimulated for a short time, and it coughed up the two mouthfuls of blood that the emperor has been stuffy in his heart for a long time!"

Jia thought at ease: ... such a coincidence?

"You said this is not a blessing in disguise," Eunuch Dai said with a smile on his face, "Even the imperial physician said that you are truly a lucky general!"

Jia Fang was taken aback, and then bypassed the logic: last night he opened his mouth without permission, piercing the trick of forming a small hole, which provoked the Taoist priest to use his trump card and then committed suicide. Who would have thought that the "killer trump card" was noticed by him again, Then he recited the emperor out of the boat hall abruptly, so there was a series of "coincidences" later.

No wonder the emperor looked much more energetic than before last night, and he didn't cough anymore. It's probably because he vomited out all the blood.

Jia Fang hurriedly humbled: "This is all about the emperor's great fortune, what does it have to do with me... What is the origin of the Taoist priest, have you found out?"

Eunuch Dai shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, but if you want to ask something else, Old Dai will certainly know everything, but just this matter..."

Jia Fang knew it was inconvenient for him to ask any more questions, so he quickly stopped.But the other party didn't finish: "You must never ask about this matter again. The less you know, the better for you."

Jia Fang already knew a lot, he heard Dai Quan answer last night: That Taoist was recommended by the crown prince.This secret murder has nothing to do with the prince.At this time, Jia Fang nodded quickly, indicating that he passed out early last night and didn't know anything.

However, according to his guess, the crown prince's suspicion is not too great, so how can there be any reason for him to recommend someone to harm his father?The prince is already in this position, so he can't act so stupidly.

After this incident, His Majesty the Emperor must be vigilant—Jia Fang believes that an emperor who was once deposed, then successfully restored abruptly, and re-ascended the throne can never be just a person with a love brain.

"Master Jia, if that's the case, you should have a good rest. A little eunuch will come in to help you wash and eat. After that, you can walk around the courtyard by yourself and wait for the emperor to summon you."

After Dai Quan finished speaking, he resigned and left, while Jia Fang had a few young eunuchs come in to help him wash and change clothes.

Someone took Jia Fang to clean the room, and Jia Fang took a look, yo, it was a modern bathroom, with a toilet that flushes automatically, a faucet that automatically produces hot water, a bidet in the bathroom, and tiles on the walls—this is simply amazing. It was as if he had been moved from his small courtyard in Rongguo Mansion.

After Jia Fang took a shower, he changed into the clothes prepared here for him—the clothes were not his own, but both the outer robe and the inner garment fit perfectly, almost cut according to his size.The fabrics were of fine quality and soft to the touch, and all the clothes looked freshly cut and had never been worn before.

Jia Fang was dressed properly, and carefully tied his accessories around his waist one by one, and the food was served there immediately.The breakfast prepared here is very simple, a bowl of porridge, side dishes, and steamed buns.

But the porridge was boiled with minced chicken, I don't know how long it took, the fiber of the minced chicken has long been melted, and I can't taste it at all, but when Jia Fang tastes it, it tastes like a whole mouthful.Needless to say, the white steamed bun was very sweet, but the side dishes were pickled by Mrs. Sun, which made Jia Fang wonder if the imperial dining room here went to Rongguo Mansion overnight to buy these things for him.

Jia Fang was full, so he asked the little eunuch for a pen and paper, and recorded all the experimental principles of "small hole imaging" and the experimental principle of refracting colorful light with a prism yesterday. Leave a scientific basis.

After finishing all these, he really had nothing to do, so he decided to go out for a stroll, after all, Dai Quan had ordered him to go around the courtyard by himself, he didn't say he had to stay in the house.

When Jia released the courtyard, he asked casually, "Has this courtyard been inhabited in the Li Palace?"

The answer is: "Since it was built more than ten years ago, it has been uninhabited, but the Holy Majesty visits it from time to time, so people have been taking care of it to keep it as it was. Recently, it has been renovated and a new clean room has been installed."

Jia felt relieved: Could this be the house where "Ms. Xiaoyuan" once lived in?

He pretended not to care, walked out of the house with his hands behind his back, came to the courtyard, and was completely shocked by the scene in front of him——

In front of him is a group of huge lake rock rockery, and in front of the rockery is a pool of clear water.This lake stone rockery is made of piled stones. Its structure is very peculiar. There are two passages on the left and right, leading to a stone peak in the middle. Castles in the Air".The entire rockery has a single peak with towering emerald greens, beautifully mirroring the clear pool, which is so steep and outstanding that it is rare in the world.

Jia Fang was so dumbfounded that he stood on the opposite side of this rockery in a daze. He stared blankly for a long time, and the more he watched, the more he realized something, and he even danced.

He took a step back, chose a better angle to observe the rockery and the reflection in the water, and suddenly asked in surprise, "The moon in the water?"

Indeed, a crescent moon appears in the reflection of the rockery in the water—this is because the rockery deliberately hollowed out the lake stones according to a certain shape when the rockery was piled up, so that light can shine through, so that the water surface can reflect the skylight.Coupled with the appropriate angle of the observer, this rare spectacle can be seen in the water.

Jia Fang found the moon in the water, turned around immediately, and went to look for the "flower in the mirror". Sure enough, not long after, he found a huge mirror on the side of the Chaoshou corridor leading to the rockery. In front is a garden of flowers.Now a branch of green peach has bloomed quietly, and it is also reflected brightly red in the mirror.

"The moon in the water, the flower in the mirror—" Jia Fang said in surprise.

"Flowers in the mirror, water, moon, and castles in the sky—" There seems to be a voice echoing in the garden, echoing secretly.

Jia Fang was moved by this weird and even somewhat depressing image. To be honest, he had never seen such a beautiful and majestic pile of rocks in his life, with such an extraordinary manner, but he had never seen any garden owner give him a Yuanzi designed such a pessimistic theme.

This garden seems destined to tell a sad story.

He immediately turned around and went to look for the little eunuch serving in the garden: "Which room here belongs to the owner of the garden?"

The little eunuch was dumbfounded: "This is the Imperial Palace!" Everything here belongs to the only owner, His Majesty the Emperor himself.

Jia Fang shook his head: "No, there is a room here that left traces of previous people's lives, such as books in the room and paintings on the wall..."

As soon as the little eunuch heard the words "there are paintings on the wall", he immediately came to his senses and led Jia Fang to a small study.

Jia Fang stepped into this study, and finally knew what kind of people lived in this garden, and probably knew why he was arranged to rest here——

The four walls of the study room are covered with paintings of ladies, some of which are still fresh in ink, while others are of old paper, which must have been hung for many years after the paintings were completed.The ladies in these paintings, whether sitting or standing, or smiling sweetly, or contemplating, are all the same person.

"Ms. Xiaoyuan, I see you again." Jia Fang greeted secretly in his heart, knowing that this garden should be the place where this once lived.After that, she left for unknown reasons, but the emperor's yearning for her has never diminished for a day. Every time he came here, he would have a heart of nostalgia, and then draw a picture.Over time, Ms. Xiaoyuan's exclusive gallery has been formed here.

Jia Fang looked intently at the inscriptions on the paintings, and suddenly found a sentence: "In March of the Yiwei year, I visited Xiang's hometown, recalled the old days, and couldn't stop crying. Hui Xiaoyuan played in the hometown when he was a child."

In the painting is a young girl sitting on a swing, which is raised high.That girl has only one back.

But the person who drew it seems to be full of emotion. With just a few strokes, the figure of the girl swinging on the swing is depicted so vividly that people can faintly hear laughter like silver bells in their ears.

Jia Fang was a little touched: this drawing paper is so old, it was many years ago in the year of Yiwei, but the king's longing has never faded even today.

But Jia Fang immediately noticed something: "Xiang's hometown".

Xiaoyuan played in the hometown when he was a child? ——So this Ms. Xiaoyuan's surname is neither Qian nor Shi, but Xiang?

Xiang Xiaoyuan?

And Xiang's hometown is the one he is rebuilding?

If what His Majesty the Emperor said last night when he was in a turmoil meant that he was the son of that lady Xiaoyuan, then...King Qing Xiang Fengyi, maybe his grandfather?

Jia Fang suddenly remembered that on the fish scale book he had seized from Lai Da earlier, the early seals were all stamped with the name "Xiang Fengyi".

The entire Grand View Garden used to belong to King Qing.

In other words, the emperor sent him to build this garden with a reason, a purpose, and a purpose?

Looking at the portraits of "Ms. Xiang Xiaoyuan" all over the room, Jia Fang couldn't help scratching his head——

Jia Fang has a very clear understanding of his identity. He comes from another time and space, where he has parents and relatives. He received a good education with full care and love, and then he pursued his career relentlessly.

In this time and space, if the original owner has never been "passed" by Jia Fanghun, there will definitely be problems with his identity recognition now. Is he a concubine of the Duke's mansion, a prince with a shady status, or an emperor who has committed a felony? His grandson?

Jia Fang faced this problem, but he didn't have any problems——

This kind of "no problem" stems from his inner strength, his clear goal, and he only wants to complete the task and realize his ideal.

As for the real identity of the original owner, what kind of blood has been poured in this time and space, it has no effect on him.When various possibilities of the original owner's life experience surfaced, he would not be particularly shocked, and even had a little bit of gossip and curiosity... After all, it was completely a bystander's mentality.

But, he really didn't expect it to be Xiang Xiaoyuan.

He remembered that Jia She and Jia Daihua had told him about King Qing's past. For the sake of the country, King Qing established a new king and imprisoned the abolished emperor. die.

But who would have thought that there was a figure of a woman here.

Just put yourself in the shoes of this woman and think about the feelings of this woman. The person she loves is imprisoned by her father, and the person in turn seizes the throne and restores her father and kills her father.A woman's love and happiness seem too insignificant in the face of power, interests, political situation, and party struggles, but for her, this is her whole life.

Even if this woman is willing to accept the emperor's love, this kind of happiness is illusory and fleeting-a dream in the mirror, a castle in the air, a word is a prophecy.

For the king, it is not the case.

"This is the last time I visited the garden. I recalled the old things and drew the scenes in my old dreams." At some time, His Majesty the Emperor appeared in this study room and came to Jia Fang, and saw him staring at this book for a long time. Then he opened his mouth to explain for him.

"When I first met your mother, she was only seven years old, and she was a little delicate flower." Recalling the past, the corners of His Majesty's lips raised slightly, his eyes filled with tender memories, "At that time, I only Treat her as a junior sister, the jewel in the palm of Master's palm."

"Later, when I met her again when I was in the most difficult and unrepentant time, my status and circumstances were completely different. Being able to know and love her, I regard this period of time as a great gift from God."

Jia Fang listened to these words and thought about it for a long time before making the gesture of suddenly discovering the Ninth Five Lord next to him. Pretending to be surprised, he hurriedly wanted to salute, but was stopped by His Majesty the Emperor.

The emperor turned to the painting, paused, and asked Jia Fang: "Did your father... Duke Rong reveal these things to you?"

Jia Fang shook his head and said, "Father didn't mention a word."

As long as the emperor himself didn't testify against him, Duke Rong Jia Daishan would still be his father.

The emperor nodded when he heard the words, and said: "Fang'er, the reason why you were brought up by the old lady of Rongguo Mansion is because of your mother's obsession. She insisted on not letting you grow up in the palace, and she forced me to let you go." , forced me to make an oath, let you stay away from the court, be raised by a loving person, and grow up freely..."

"Even your name was chosen for you by her."

Please let him go, let him be a free person, not bound by the fate of the family——

Jia Fang could even vaguely hear Ms. Xiang Xiaoyuan's voice.

"To this day, when I think of this incident, I still brood over it." The emperor turned his face away and looked at Jia Fang's elegant and handsome face, "If you grow up by my side, you will definitely be my best son. .”

Jia Fang could only kneel down, not even daring to say.

"Why don't you dare? You did a great job in saving your car yesterday, and I haven't figured out what reward I should give you," the emperor said loudly, "As long as you want, I can immediately restore your identity and tell the world that you are my son." Parent and son, grandson of King Qing—it’s nothing to be included in the family tree of the Jia family, but you, the prince, can only feel honored by the entire family of the Jia family.”

Jia Fang: ...

Who would have thought that he would actually fall into the emperor's favor, making the emperor want to return to his knees?

Jia Fang secretly yelled bitterly: Don't do it!

He didn't want to be a sixth prince who suddenly became the new target of other princes.He just wanted to do a good job of what he was doing, and leave as soon as he was done, leave this time and space, and return his happy life to the original owner.

"Xiaoyuan insisted on doing this back then, which made me really sad." The emperor continued, "But I promised her first that no matter what she asks, I will satisfy."

To make the emperor so obedient, one can imagine that this woman must have the most unique charm.

"Today I only see what you mean." The emperor's words were resounding, as long as Jia Fang nodded, the palace and court would immediately be turned upside down, "Because I have regretted it for a long time. If I could predict the future, I would never let Xiao The garden will do anything recklessly, and if it hurts her, it will also hurt you."

Jia Fang was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "I think everyone has the right to choose the life they want."

"You have the right, Ms. Xiang Xiaoyuan, you also have the right to choose!"

I, too, have the power to choose.
