After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

After the ceremony is over, the historians will continue to retreat and observe filial piety.

But this time, the two Shi Nai brothers will not really close the door like last time, completely ignoring the outside world.

Although it's not easy for them masters to go out, don't they still have servants?

The historian also started with military exploits, and many of the servants in the family are descendants of the first generation of Bowlinghou's personal soldiers.

Shi Nai found Wang Wu, the descendant of the scout, and asked him to take advantage of the time when the Hou's mansion was keeping his filial piety and the people behind the scenes were bound to relax. People, and who have a close relationship with them in the past.

Since the death of the first generation of Marquis Baoling, these soldiers and their descendants have not been highly valued by their masters.After all, when it comes to serving people, how can they compare with those children who have learned to serve people since childhood?

This time, Shi Nai used Wang Wu to give hope to the descendants of these soldiers.That night, many people went to Wang Wu's house to talk to Wang Wu and his father.The inside and outside of the words are all: let your kid do a good job, don't lose face to our old brother.If it's useful for our kid, feel free to squeak.

Wang Wu and his father also felt that his face was bright.If it weren't for the funeral in the mansion, he would definitely have to make a couple of small wines, pull these old guys, and brag about it.

Wang Wu has his father's spur, and he has a slippery temperament.Coupled with the fact that there has been no movement in Bowlinghou's Mansion for so many days, the other party seems to have let down his vigilance.Wang Wu quickly found out that the person who went to drink with the old man was Jia Zhen from Ningguo Mansion.

"Are you sure it's really Jia Zhen?"

Shi Nai could still ask calmly, but Shi Ding clenched his fists, wishing he could rush to Ningguo Mansion and beat Jia Zhen up.

Wang Wudao: "The young man found the book apartment where the old man drank, and spent money to talk to the boy in it. After he came out, he randomly picked a few shops along the way and asked. The people described by the shop assistants, and Uncle Jia is very similar. And the boy in the book house also said that the old man called him his great nephew."

Shi Ding said angrily: "We are still relatives, is there such a person who only cheats relatives?"

Shi Nai frowned, and couldn't help but ask, "How much money did you spend?"

Wang Wu chuckled, stretched out his hand and made a gesture: "Five coins."

As expected of a book apartment, it's really dark!

Shi Nai felt a pain in his flesh.But he also knew that it was not easy to save some money for a young boy who was not valued like Wang Wu's family, so he said: "Later, you can go to the second wife and pay five taels of silver. Help the master's house, and I can't let you Out of pocket."

Wang Wu's eyes lit up: "Thank you, Second Master."

Shi Nai waved his hand, motioning for him to continue talking and stop talking about money.

——Thinking about the hundreds of thousands of debts, he feels pain when he spends money.

Wang Wudao: "Apart from frequent visits to Rongguo Mansion recently, Uncle Zhen has been very close to a doctor of the Ministry of Rites surnamed Du. Mr. Du has a daughter who works as a side concubine in the Seventh Prince's Mansion.

Shi Ding said: "Is it the Seventh Prince?"

"No, it should be the third prince." Shi Nai said, "The seventh prince has always followed the lead of the third prince, and the power of the mother's family is not obvious, so she will not leave the third prince."

"It can be seen that the third prince is usually a person, it doesn't seem like he can do such a thing!"

No wonder Shi Ding said that, in fact, even Shi Nai himself felt the same way.

The third prince Gein was a very high-minded and self-proclaimed person, and he was full of arrogance. He really didn't seem like someone who would use such methods.

But... hehe, as far as he knows, the third concubine, Ma Shi, was married because the third prince used tricks to make Ma Shi fall into the water in the palace, and he came to save the beauty with a hero.

This happened after the third prince's misfortune in the previous life. The third younger sibling heard about it from her natal family and told the third younger brother, who then told him.

Shi Nai said: "Know people, know face, but not heart. We haven't had close contact with the third prince, so we can't be sure. Of course, it can't be ruled out that the seventh prince made his own decisions."

Seeing Wang Wuyi hesitated to speak, Shi Nai said, "If you find out other things, you can also tell them along with it. Don't be afraid."

"Yes." Wang Wuyi gritted his teeth and said, "Every time before Uncle Zhen goes to visit Du Langzhong, he will go to Rongguo Mansion to meet our old aunt first."

The old aunt is the Shi Nai brothers' aunt, Jia Shishi, and Jia Zhen's great-uncle.

Logically speaking, given the relationship between Ningrong and Rongguo Mansions, Jia Zhen traveled more frequently to Rongguo Mansion, which is not a big deal at all.But Wang Wu's grandfather was a scout, and his father was also a scout. Although he is no longer fighting, Wang Wu has learned all his father's skills.

Relying on his professional sensitivity, he discovered unusual things from various clues.

After discovering that Jia Zhen often went to Rongguo Mansion, Wang Wu made a special inquiry, only to find out that Jia Jing, the head of Ningguo Mansion, the first-class general, never went to Rongguo Mansion except when it was necessary during the New Year and festivals.

This is very strange.The father and son's attitude towards the Rongguo Mansion is too far away.

Shi Nai asked irritably, "Second Brother, what do you mean by Jia Jing?"

"What do you mean? Heh," Shi Nai smiled ambiguously, "Maybe, Jia Jing doesn't know about this at all."

Others may not be clear about it, but Shi Nai, who has experienced it once, knows it all.Although Jia Jing is not a core figure in the prince-party, he is quite loyal to the prince.

When the crown prince was defeated, no one dared to move forward, including the sixth prince.Only Jia Jing, taking advantage of the prince's suicide and the chaos in the palace, stole the prince's youngest daughter and put it at the door of a Yusheng hall.

It was just a twist of fate that this girl was later adopted by Qin Bangye, a doctor of the Ministry of Construction and Repairs, and married Jia Rong, Jia Jing's grandson by accident.But because of her beauty, she was coveted and persecuted by Jia Zhen, a hungry ghost, and hanged herself to death.

These things were originally kept secret.It was also later that the Jia family was defeated. When Jia Rong was on trial, he confided with resentment that Jia Zhen had bullied his wife, just to make Jia Zhen die in ruin and to avenge his wife.

The people of Dali Temple followed the investigation and found out that Jia Rong's wife's identity was unusual.The minister of Dali Temple did not dare to be negligent. After in-depth investigation, he took a deep breath and quickly reported to the saint, and Qin's life experience was finally clarified.

Later, when the sage was looking at Qin Keqing's belongings that Jia Rong had put away, he found a jade tablet bestowed by the emperor, which was obviously not something the Qin family could have.The sage asked the chief executive to check the records of rewards in the palace, but found that this Eryu tablet was awarded by the late emperor to the former first-class general Jia Jing.

How could Jia Jing's jade plaque be in Qin Keqing's belongings?

Originally, the saint thought Jia Rong gave it to her.But after asking Jia Rong, it was discovered that Jia Rong didn't know this Eryu tablet at all before, and the first time I saw it was at Qin Keqing's place.

The sage thought it was strange, so he asked people to take the jade card to the nursery school where Qin Keqing was adopted.The old man inside said that this jade tablet was found in Qin Keqing's swaddling baby when she picked it up at the door.Along with it is a black fox cloak, which wraps the baby.

Combined with the situation back then, Jia Jing suddenly became a monk. Not only is he a saint, but many people have also speculated.

——It turned out that Jia Jing risked his life and stole one of the blood of the former prince.

But it is an indisputable fact that Qin Keqing was forced to die by Jia Zhen.For the sake of Jia Jing, Jia Zhen and his son were still unable to escape death, but the death penalty was changed to beheading.

In short, with Jia Jing's loyalty to the prince, it is absolutely impossible for him to switch to the third prince.On the contrary, it was his good aunt who was used to being in two boats.

"Second brother, you mean that Jia Zhen voted for the third prince behind Jia Jing's back?" Why did Shi Ding not believe it?

Shi Nai glanced at him and smiled: "Don't believe me, think about it for yourself, does Jia Jing look like such a stupid person?"

Now the prince is still in full swing, Jia Jing is not stupid, how could he turn to the third prince?

That's the reason, but Shi Nai asked, "Then why is Jia Zhen?"

"Oh, Jia Zhen is probably being fooled by our good aunt." Shi Nai's face was full of sarcasm, obviously looking down on Jia Shishi who was obviously stupid but pretended to be smart.

Shi Ding looked at him strangely: "Second Brother, you seem to have a big opinion on Auntie."

Shi Nai said in his heart: That's right, I just have a big opinion on her.

But now Jia Shishi hasn't done anything to their brothers, and he can't arrange people out of thin air.

But he didn't want the third child to be led by the nose by this aunt again, and to be tricked again.

So, he straightened his expression and asked, "Third brother, who do you think is in charge of the Rongguo Mansion now?"

"Jia Zheng? No, his skills are all played out for him." Shi Ding curled his lips in disdain. Outsiders don't know about this matter, and their cousins, don't they?

But if it wasn't Jia Zheng, could it be Jia Amnesty?

"It's my aunt." Shi Ding said firmly.

Since the old Duke Shan passed away, my aunt used filial piety to suppress Jia She and let Jia Zheng live in Rongxi Hall, Jia She has been deaf to the outside world.If it weren't for this, given that Jia She is the heir taught by the good man, even if he is not very capable, the Rongguo Mansion, which always has vision and insight, would not have fallen so quickly.

When the old man was alive, he also told his aunt about this matter, but the aunt didn't know what was blinding her eyes, and she just thought that only Jia Zheng was capable, and Jia She was an ignorant dude.

"Second brother is saying that my aunt secretly brought the Rongguo Mansion to join the third prince?"

"How can she have that ability?" Shi Nai's ridicule was undisguised, "Jia Amnesty doesn't care about world affairs anymore, but he is the legitimate heir of the Rongguo Mansion. At best, my aunt brought Jia Zheng to vote for the third prince."

"Jia Zheng? A head of the Ministry of Industry?"

It's not that Shi Ding looked down on the sixth-rank officials, but how could he look down on the ignorant Jia Zheng with the dignity of the third prince?

"Second Master, Third Master," Wang Wu said suddenly, "The seal letter of amnesty seems to be in the hands of an old aunt."

Shi Ding suddenly said: "No wonder!"

"Eh?" He suddenly reacted, "Second brother, they have the seal of the first-class general, is there any difference between taking Rongguo Mansion and taking refuge?"

Shi Nai said, "Of course there is?"

Shi Ding listened with all due respect, and Wang Wu was also very curious.

A strange look suddenly appeared on Shi Nai's face, as if it was unbelievable, but he took it for granted.

He said, "Jia She is really a ruthless person."

"Ang?" Shi Ding was even more confused, "What does this have to do with Jia She?"

Shi Nai smiled, and with that strange look on his face again, he asked, "Do you think Jia Amnesty is behind this matter?"

Shi Ding said bluntly, "I don't know."

Shi Nai stared at him speechlessly.

"Don't stare at me, second brother!" Shi Ding said with an innocent face, very bachelor, "You know me, I don't like to think about these things the most. Just tell me directly."

My own brother, what else can I do?I can only do my best.

Life is not easy, Shi Nai sighed.
