The Zhen Family Brothers in the Red Chamber

King Yong's words of righteousness made Zhen Zhu terrified after entering the door, but she was touched on the head and face. After being touched for a while, she accompanied King Yong to read the scriptures in his hand, and she completed the task honorably.

——Emotional master is just a plaything to pass the time!Zhen Zhu thought about it displeasedly, but she shrank her head silently when she saw King Shangyong's half-smiley face: "Master, what do you want to do~ The little one promises to be washed clean and ready to be touched at any time!"

Jin Bao stood at the door and followed Song Zhaoyong with big eyes and small eyes. After an hour, he saw a group of three people outside carrying hot tea and went in. After a while, he saw Cui Liu coming out from inside and said to the two: "Young Master Zhen wants Stay here to accompany the prince to have dinner, you two can go back alone, and wait until after dinner to serve."

It's a holiday here, Jin Bao replied with a smile, Song Zhaoyong couldn't speak well and could only thank him dryly, Jin Bao stepped forward and said to Cui Liu: "The young one is a new book boy, now I'm here at Prince Yong's mansion, please invite my sister Take care."

Cui Liu didn't have much expression on his face, but he still mentioned: "Ran Hong and Zhang Qing were serving in the mansion at first, remember to say hello later, and there is nothing else to do."

On the second day, when Zhen Zhu went out, she heard a lot of gossip outside. Even the teahouse waiters knew that the Seven Sage King was reprimanded. At the foot of the emperor, the place closest to the imperial court, anyone under the ground would know up.

Zhen Zhu took Jin Bao and Song Zhaoyong to sit on the teahouse. With the screen on the other side, she heard someone on the other side discussing the affairs of the court. The two people who spoke seemed to have backgrounds. One was the household servant Tian Zhongqing, and the other was him His colleagues would recognize Tian Zhongqing's name because Zhen Zhu had met him when Zhen Zhu followed King Yong.

"Who in the court would have thought of it today, the Holy Majesty is really angry this time." Tian Zhongqing couldn't help sighing and then heard the other party say.

"This has resulted in a life-and-death lawsuit. Thinking about it, I can't be kind. If I say it, I'm not greedy enough. In order to win over more people, I end up intimidating and luring them. After I failed, I actually squeezed them out. It's better to find someone who is not angry. This angry one will die for you to see, and the posthumous copy will be presented to the imperial court."

"No, at the beginning, I only heard that King Xian is a corporal who saves the weak and helps the needy. Who would have thought that a servant would do such a thing, or at this level. If he fails to deal with it, the position of the crown prince may be in danger. "After Tian Zhongqing finished speaking, he drank with the other party and didn't talk much about anything else.

Jin Bao listened with pricked ears, then moved closer to Zhen Zhu's ear and whispered, "Master, do you want to pass this news on to Jiang Ning?"

Zhen Zhu thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "It takes a month to go back and forth, and I don't know what will happen after waiting for a month." But after hesitating for a moment, he still said to Jin Bao, "You write a letter to father After he finished speaking, seeing Jin Bao agree, he got up and left.

Before Jin Bao left, Song Zhaoyong, who was waiting on the side, silently held some food for Zhen Zhu. After taking two mouthfuls, Zhen Zhu suddenly remembered, and turned to look over: "How is your family doing now?" Song Zhaoyong's mother was implicated in the Zhang family's affairs, even though she was The noise of the wind and the rain did not hurt the bones, but in Zhen Zhu's view, a family like Nanny Song would absolutely not tolerate it.

"Aniang and Dad went back to Jiangning. Grandpa said that there is no need to contact them in the future. I will make my own decision after I get married and start a business."

Zhen Zhu nodded, the Song family's family style is good, but it's too honest to ask Zhen Zhu to come, but it's also because of his honesty that he will always let Song Zhaoyong stay by his side.

"You don't need to be as knowledgeable as Jin Bao, he is a smart person and will not do anything bad to you." Zhen Zhu still thinks highly of Song Zhaoyong, so he mentioned that he is a nostalgic after all, and he is lazy to change it when he is used to it. .

Song Zhaoyong lowered his head in shame when he heard what Zhen Zhu said.

Zhen Zhu stretched out her hand and patted Song Zhaoyong's arm as comfort, then continued to eat the food, and after a while Jin Bao came back drenched in sweat.

"Already settled the matter?" Zhen Zhu raised her head and glanced at Jin Bao.

Jin Bao answered in a hurry, Zhen Zhu nodded: "Go and settle the bill, let's go to the south of the city, I heard it's a bit lively today."

There are only a few friends that Zhen Zhu really makes, but there are always some playmates on weekdays. The south of the city is the Antique Alley, and anyone who has some hobbies will go there. Zhen Zhu once bought some sketches and played with them. It went smoothly, he wanted to give King Yong some small things as his own wishes, but he didn't want to show himself vulgar by smashing things with money, so he called a few people to go and have a look together.

Before reaching the south of the city, Zhen Zhu from a distance heard that it was quite lively inside. He only took two steps inside and saw a very familiar person. Zhen Zhu was about to turn around, but was stopped by the other party.

The third elder brother Hongshi happened to be out today. He used to come with the servants in the mansion, and he would nod and bow when he saw anyone who asked him to do so. But today he wanted to see things from ordinary people, so he put The waiters were all chased away, and he was wandering around the city by himself, and then he left the restaurant after lunch, and the money on his body disappeared, and at this time he was looking at an inkstone and was about to take out the money.

The owner of the inkstone was kind and generous, and he didn't dare to say anything else when he saw Hongshi's attire. He just saw that this gorgeously dressed man hadn't taken out any silver for a long time, so he suggested: "Young master, why don't you bring enough silver tomorrow?" Next time, I will definitely keep this inkstone." Anyway, if you don't come tomorrow, you will sell it the day after tomorrow, so as to offend as few people as possible.

But Hongshi was going to study in the palace tomorrow, where did he get the time, he happened to be resting today, so he insisted on taking it back first, and then asked someone to send the money over tomorrow.

If he went to a shop he was used to in the past, all the business people in it would recognize him, it would be fine, but this is the south of the city, there are many people coming and going, and the shopkeeper doesn't recognize anyone, and Hongshi didn't bring a flatterer with him. He was too embarrassed to call his own name, so the two hit it off.

While talking with the shopkeeper, Hong Shi saw Zhen Zhu at a glance. After all, Hong Shi, who was two years older and had begun to understand things, treated Zhen Zhu better than before, so he changed his mind and called out Zhen Zhu. .

Zhen Zhu was facing away from Hongshi at that time, but when the other party called out his name, his footsteps were caught by many gazes, he glanced around, because there were more people coming, it seemed that the surrounding shops They all knew him, so they could only turn around silently and stepped forward to salute.

As soon as the shopkeeper heard Zhen Zhu call the third elder brother, he quickly ordered the boy to pack the inkstone, and then nodded and bowed and stuffed it in front of Hongshi. Hongshi raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Zhenzhu. Yantai then asked: "Brother San is going back home?"

Hongshi suddenly felt bored, he clicked his tongue and couldn't explain what it was like just now, he just reached out and patted Zhen Zhu's shoulder: "You're smart, let's go!"

Then he strode forward to lead the way. After taking two steps, he paused and looked back at Zhen Zhu. Zhen Zhu cleared her throat, probably because the other party realized that she didn't know whether Zhen Zhu had a sedan chair or a carriage.

Jin Bao stepped forward cleverly, bowed to Hongshi and said: "I have seen the third elder brother, the third elder brother is auspicious, and our young master's carriage is ahead." Then he walked to the front to lead the way.

Hong Shi arrogantly followed behind Jin Bao, Zhen Zhu was three steps behind, Song Zhaoyong followed behind Zhen Zhu, and the private party left like this.

When they arrived at Prince Yong's Mansion, the servant who came to pick him up saw his third elder brother get off from Zhen Zhu's carriage, his eyes widened immediately, and he hurried forward to serve her. Zhen Zhu left without saying hello when she saw Hongshi After that, I just raised my eyebrows and saw a person rushing in from outside.

Zhen Zhu gave way to the right, Jin Bao quickly and carefully supported his left arm, Song Zhaoyong took a look, seeing that the man was about to bump into him, he quickly stretched out his hand to resist.

It was Xiaoliuzi who ran in. Seeing Zhen Zhu hurriedly bowed his head and saluted, he said again: "It's really an important matter, the little one has to go to the prince to get a report."

Zhen Zhu nodded understandingly, he was also familiar with Xiaoliuzi, and asked him to be careful while asking: "What's the matter?" It wasn't that he wanted to ask, it was that King Yong always asked him to participate in it recently, such as this time looking for someone He had heard the story of planning the matter of the virtuous king, and among them, it can only be said that King Yong was exhaustive.

If King Xian can only get [-]% of the officials to support him, then the other two achievements are the means of King Yong. Now he is trying his best to add bricks and tiles to King Xian just to make the opponent stand higher, and fall more dead in the future.

Maybe others still can't see how much bargaining chips King Yong has, but for Zhen Zhu, the throne is simply in his pocket. The key depends on when King Yong is going to take it. , and because of the matter of the virtuous king, he was extremely entangled, so he waited for the court to go to the garden in the garden.

In the harem, Concubine Hui is the one who has served the Holy Majesty the longest. Among the concubines in the palace, there are only a few who can be called old people including the empress. Concubine De and Concubine Min are separated by a generation. After the prince was imprisoned, Concubine Hui rarely appeared in front of the Holy One.

"Maybe it's my fault." When the Holy Majesty mentioned it to Eunuch Su, he would always feel a little bit regretful, but Eunuch Su never answered before, but this time he suddenly mentioned it cautiously.

"Whatever Concubine Hui thinks, why don't you go and see her, no matter what, you can tell." Eunuch Su added carefully after finishing speaking, "Master Hui seems to be a bit chilly recently."

The Holy Majesty looked back at Eunuch Su, and after thinking for a while, he ordered someone to drive to Wenhui Garden.

There are two masters living in Wenhui Garden, one is Concubine Hui, and nobleman Wei lives in the side hall to the west. When the emperor entered the door, he saw nobleman Wei standing on a stool and cutting camellias from tea branches. , the maids serving on the side surrounded Wei Guiren, supporting him carefully.It is the beauties with red flowers, willows and green seals, so it seems that the scenery here is unique.
