[Red Chamber] Jia Lian has an ancestor system

The next day, Han Fu saw that His Royal Highness King Jia had been smiling since he woke up in the morning. When drinking tea, he had clearly run out of tea, but he still held the empty cup and did not put it down.Ask him something, and after he finishes speaking, the smile is still hanging on his face and can't be wiped off.

As soon as Han Fu rolled his eyes, he knew that it was unusual. Seeing that His Highness was smiling at a blooming winter plum again, he finally couldn't help asking: "What good thing happened to Your Highness? Reward the little ones, too It’s very festive.”

Qing Yan squinted at him: "Practice in winter, and you have time to practice your skills. This winter, it is not uncommon for you to be lazy."

"My subordinates practice every day, and never slack off every day...By the way, Master Zhang said yesterday that the King of Beijing is selecting ten officials to bestow plaques, and asked His Highness to go down and have a look."

"I'm too young and inexperienced to intervene in these matters, so I will answer them for me."

"Yes. This subordinate will do it now."

"Wait, go and invite Mr. Zhang here first, and I will talk to him personally."

"Yes."

Knowing her thoughts, he was relieved.

Although there will be many obstacles in front of us, the most difficult thing to ask for has already been obtained.

Qing Yan looked at the red plums in full bloom on the branches, and secretly said in his heart: "You don't let me down, and I don't let you down."

Zhang Shaochang soon entered the Jia Palace.He has been promoted to the Governor of Liangjiang, but he will not go to the post until the beginning of next spring, and he has been idle recently, so he assisted the King of Beijing in the selection of the plaque in the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

The King of Beijing Jing has always liked these honest people, and he handled this matter with ease.

Qing Yan unreservedly confided his heart to this Master Zhang who has been by his side all the time since he opened the mansion.

In the past two years, Zhang Shaochang saw that His Highness had been reluctant to marry the concubine, and he knew that he would definitely find someone he liked. Now seeing Miss Lin singing in harmony with him, he was naturally overjoyed.Hearing King Jia's real plans again, he was as happy as an old father who loves his son.

"Your Highness, don't worry. Your Majesty has always urged His Majesty to get married as soon as possible to settle your mind. Now that Miss Lin's family background, character, appearance, and talent are one in a million, the Holy Majesty is naturally willing to give her a marriage."

Qing Yan shook his head, and said with some concern: "That may not be the case. Father's thoughts are never easy to guess, and looking at the current situation, Miss Lin's grandparents' family is at the end of their battle, so I am worried about this... In case my If the marriage spoils Royal Father's plan, then Royal Father will naturally not agree to it."

Qing Yan hadn't thought this far before, but now that he analyzed it, he became more and more worried.

Zhang Shaochang pondered for a while, and asked: "From His Highness' point of view, if something bad happens, how will His Highness choose? Will you give up Miss Lin?"

"No!" Qing Yan said firmly, "I'd rather not be a prince, not have this life, and I don't want to let Miss Lin down."

"Okay!" Zhang Shaochang applauded, "What the old minister wants is your words. The most fearful thing to do is that you will not be strong. If you make up your mind, the matter will be half done."

Qing Yan handed over this matter to Zhang Shaochang, but he didn't know if it could be done.However, besides a firm mind, he has no other ability at the moment.Although he is a prince, in fact, every word and action must obey the holy will, and the matter of marrying a wife cannot be casual.

In the past few years, he has always thought that he is still young, studying is important, and there is no need to rush to marry the princess, so he declined the marriage offer twice.But at that time, the father also had other considerations, so he didn't really make an order.Now that he has found that person, he has to worry about whether he can successfully obtain the order.

Who said that the emperor's family can be satisfied, in fact, there are too many things that cannot be satisfied...

In the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Zhang Shaochang discussed with the King of Beijing and determined ten officials who received the plaque.

When the two were sipping tea, Zhang Shaochang said: "It's strange to say that His Royal Highness King Jia and Mr. Fan met that day, and they hit it off right away."

"I've also heard that this old Mr. Fan is a man of high morals and integrity. He returned it because he disobeyed the emperor's wishes. Later, he rejected the current emperor, but now he has become friends with the third generation. It can be seen that fate in the world is really unpredictable." Bei Jing Wang Qing smiled brightly.

"What's even more strange, they not only chatted happily, Mr. Fan even talked about a marriage for His Royal Highness King Jia."

King Bei Jing raised his eyebrows: "There is still this matter? Tell me, whose daughter is it?"

"It was the daughter of Lin Tanhua, his fellow family member. Later, His Highness saw a portrait of the orphan girl of the Lin family in the Lin residence, and heard people in the residence mention that the orphan girl of the Lin family is a beautiful and quiet person who is proficient in poetry and calligraphy, and was moved for a while."

The King of Beijing Jing has always been quite familiar with the world, and said with a smile: "I said why he mentioned the Lin family in front of His Majesty. I dismissed it, but now I am attracted to the woman in the portrait."

"I made the lord laugh. This matter is also a subordinate's daring to make up his own mind. I thought that the fourth prince has indeed reached the age of marrying a wife, and I heard the subordinate officer Lin Hong say that her niece Lin is indeed a pure person... Then I thought. It is a good thing that this marriage can come true.”

"Of course, it is best to go to the imperial court to talk about marriage, and it is best to be a person with high morals and high status. Considering that niece Lin is now living in Jia's ancestral home, I always think it is most appropriate for the prince to mention it to the emperor, but I don't know the prince. Willing to be the beauty of an adult."

King Bei Jing raised his eyes: "It's actually at Jia's house? So it's her!" Nodding his head, "Since it's her, she is indeed a rare person, and I've heard of it."

As soon as Zhang Shaochang heard this, the matter was settled.

"However, why didn't King Jia mention this matter first when he faced the saint?"

Zhang Shaochang: "At that time, face-to-face with the saint was for official business, so how could we seek personal relationships with our sons and daughters?"

King Bei Jing laughed: "It seems that King Jia is really sensible. Forget it, I'll go and walk for him."

In Prince Jia's mansion, Qing Yan was walking back and forth.

Zhang Shaochang said to leave this matter to him, but he didn't know if it could be done.Although the King of Beijing Jing is kind and generous, he has never been close to the King of Beijing, and he has not dared to form an alliance with these princes in these years... If it fails, he will have to go to seek the order himself.

Han Fu persuaded: "Your Highness, be safe and don't be impatient. I think you and Miss Lin are a match made in heaven, and they are destined to be together. When I went back to Hanshan Temple, the beggar also said that Your Highness's marriage is coming soon."

Qing Yan stared at him speechlessly: "Han Fu, since when did you start to believe this?"

"The subordinates have always believed in it."

"absurd."

"Don't dare."

But Zhang Shaochang hurried in and said, "Your Highness, Your Highness."

Qing Yan's heart was about to jump in his throat: "How is it?"

"It's done! The King of Beijing has agreed. In the afternoon, I will go to the emperor to see the list of plaques and propose marriage for His Highness."

A stone fell to the ground in Qing Yan's heart, not knowing what to express, Han Fu took the lead in clasping his hands together: "Congratulations, Your Highness."

"It's too early to say congratulations on this matter. Before the dust settles, I'm always worried that something will happen."

Until the evening approached, there was no news from the Beijing Palace.

Qing Yan didn't sit or stand, he kept asking Han Fu: "The people who were sent to Beijing Palace haven't come back yet?"

It wasn't until night fell that someone came to report: "Reporting to Your Highness, the King of Beijing Jing asked His Highness to wait for His Majesty to summon you."

"..."

It was another sleepless night, and Qing Yan flipped through the book of poems under the lamp, staring at the red leaf with fascination, and didn't fall asleep until very late.

The next day, a decree came from the palace: "His Royal Highness King Jia, the Fourth Prince of Xuan, has an audience."

Qing Yan was determined to go all out no matter what.

In the hall, the emperor stood tall and asked with a serious face: "I heard that your heart belongs to you?"

Qing Yan replied without hesitation: "Yes, my boy saw Miss Lin's portrait in the Lin Mansion, and heard that her character, temperament, talent and learning are all one-in-a-million. She is a well-educated lady, so I thought about it."

There was a faint chill in the emperor's gaze.

"However, this son-in-law is not the kind of person who only cares about his children's private affairs. He just thinks that since ancient times, he first started a family and then established a career. In the past few years, the son-in-law was ignorant and only wanted to study wisely. Marriage also made his father, queen and queen worry a lot. Since there happens to be such a fate, why not give it a try."

These words were all taught by Zhang Shaochang. If he behaved too decisively and infatuatedly, the emperor would turn his back on him. After all, the emperor would not like a prince who is too affectionate.Only by acting like nothing, can he be more at ease.

Now it seems that this trick really works.

The emperor saw that he was so calm, and sighed slightly: "It's rare to see you move your mind and take the initiative to ask for a marriage. But if you only focus on your children's personal relationship, you are afraid that you will disappoint your father." Looking forward to you."

But Qing Yan said: "Father, please don't worry, my son and minister will get married sooner or later, if the marriage is fixed, then naturally I will have no worries in the future, and I will wholeheartedly share my worries and solve my father's problems."

The emperor nodded: "You really have grown up."

Qing Yan's tense heartstrings loosened.He secretly thought that Zhang Shaochang really deserves to be a person who has been in the officialdom for a long time. On the surface, he doesn't like to mix in, but in fact, he is like a mirror in his heart, and he can even feel the holy will so clearly.

The emperor was silent for a while, and Fang said: "The Lin family has been a generation of princes, and the daughter taught is naturally educated. I heard that she was raised by the grandfather Jia's family?"

"Yes, I heard that he lived in Jia's mansion for several years, and now he is in the mansion of his uncle Lin Honglin."

"In your opinion, if you leave the court in the future, should you leave the pavilion from Jia's mansion or Lin's mansion?"

"My humble opinion... Since her surname is Lin, it's better for her to leave the court from her uncle Lin Hong's mansion, and if she becomes a princess in the future, the Jia family will be regarded as the maternal ancestral family after all, and the relationship between people and relationships can be based on common etiquette."

After Qing Yan finished answering, he felt a little dangerous... When his father first came to the throne a few years ago, he had to rely on the influence of several big families in order to stabilize his position. Now that the foundation has been stabilized, he began to rectify and guard against these big families. Everyone knows.Looking at the current situation, I am afraid that none of the big families in Jinling will be spared. His father asked him this question, which naturally has a deep meaning.Therefore, it is better to clear up and downplay some.

After hearing this answer, the emperor didn't speak any more, only secretly weighing in his heart.

After Qing Yan returned to the mansion, he recounted these conversations to Zhang Shaochang.

Zhang Shaochang stroked his beard and said, "According to the old minister, this matter is [-]% sure."

Even so, Qingyan was still uneasy after all, especially before leaving, his father only said lightly: "Got it, you go down first."
