The Zhen Family Brothers in the Red Chamber

After Zhen Zhu packed her luggage, she went out and saw a group of people in the distance. The leader was wearing a first-class bodyguard uniform, and rode to the front, and greeted Zhen Zhu after dismounting.Zhen Zhu called out and asked, "But what's the matter?"

The guard said: "Your Majesty is afraid that the young master will have a long journey and encounter bad people, so he ordered me to follow and serve for safety."

Jin Bao looked back and forth, and found that twelve people came, all on horseback, and he didn't know any of them.Zhen Zhu also took a closer look and was sure that she didn't know her, so she kept silent.

"Aside from following me, does the Holy Majesty have any other orders?" Zhen Zhu asked, he felt that there should not be only such a thing, or else he would not have specially sent so many people.

The guard leader said: "There is no other important matter."

Zhen Zhu nodded, since she refused to say it, then she definitely couldn't say it, so she got into the carriage silently, Song Zhaoyong drove, Jin Bao sat on the side, Zhang Qing originally rode a horse to follow, but now she sat behind On the carriage, the four of them took care of the luggage and went into battle lightly, followed by Twelve Cavalry all the way south.

Along the waterway, the twelve guards also led the horses. Zhen Zhu told Jin Bao to greet him.

"They are all newly mentioned by the sage. This is the first errand. They work well. I think the long live master is also for your safety, young master." Jin Bao did not hesitate to praise the sage in front of Zhen Zhu, even if the other party Can't hear it, it's good for him to have a mouthful.

Zhen Zhu smiled, reached out and tapped Jin Bao on the head: "Everything has your business." He rubbed his forehead while talking, "Have you heard back from the letter to Jiang Ning?"

Jin Bao shook his head: "The letter was delivered, but the one who came back hasn't come back yet. The younger one also asked about it when we stopped along the way. He only said that he didn't have any other news. It must be delayed." It's a flood disaster.

Zhen Zhu narrowed her eyes and thought for a while, the world is getting more and more uneven, if there are natural disasters, there are also man-made disasters.There is an uneasy emperor at the top, and a new emperor who is very assertive. The people below are not related to each other, or the wall is swinging on both sides, and there is a reconciled Seven Sage King.

Zhen Zhu guessed that Emperor Yongzheng would make a move, so sooner or later it would depend on the longevity of the Supreme Emperor.

Seeing Zhen Zhu, Jin Bao thought for a while, and when he looked at himself, he said again: "The leader's surname is Ma. It is said that he is of the same clan as Ma Qi, but they are all members of the side branch. Six of the twelve people One has no father and no mother, but it is more clean and tidy, one of them specially raises pigeons, and he often puts them outside, but he doesn’t know where to communicate, young master, do you want to go and find out?"

The people who followed him were always sending messages outside, and Jin Bao always felt a little unsafe.

Zhen Zhu shook her head: "If it's a hindrance, it's the Holy Majesty's intention. Can you still carry him?" He sighed, not wanting to mention this again, and said, "It's boring to be on the boat now, just read the book Come, pass the time."

Jin Bao groaned, and went out the door, he came out of the cabin, and saw two people walking along the side of the boat from a distance, he recognized that they were two of the twelve riders, and went forward to say hello.

The other party waved his hand and said no, Jin Bao smiled and said: "I don't know what the two officials are?" His tone was a bit drawn out, and he looked behind the other party.

The taller of the two guards said: "Today, the fourth brother and I are on duty, and this club is patrolling the ship."

Jin Bao hurriedly said, "My young master asked me to find idle books to pass the time, so I won't bother you two."

The two guards nodded, and turned sideways to let Jin Bao pass through the aisle, and Jin Bao walked back. After he left, the shorter fourth brother said to the taller one: "Third brother, what do you think this young master of the Zhen family is from? It’s fine if you say it’s the fourth brother’s sworn brother, so the sage also recognizes it?”

The third child was cautious, looked around and said to the fourth child: "You don't care, anyway, now our wealth and life are tied to him, you don't care what his identity is, I just heard it said, this kid My grandmother is not a mortal, that is to say, she will be reincarnated."

The fourth child nodded, he turned his head to look at Jin Bao's back, and the third child patted him on the shoulder: "Come on, let's go and have a look first, and then we'll talk about it later."

The two walked around the cabin, making sure that there was no suspicious person, and then returned to their own rooms. The twelve people were divided into three rooms, and it was not crowded for four people to live in one, but it was their first time. It was a bit of a rush to get out of the mission, but fortunately the head of the guards was skilled, so he told them to prepare everything early.In fact, there is no need to worry too much, as long as you have enough money on your body, and they are on business, no matter how bad they are, they will not starve and freeze them.

The head of the guard saw them entering the door, and continued to wipe the knife in his hand, but the second child who was packing up at the side turned around and asked, "How is it?"

The third child cupped his fists: "Everything is normal."

The second child nodded and continued to tidy up. The second child is a tall and somewhat delicate man, but he is responsible for the heaviest job among them. There are very few people who can't be asked when they are in his hands. If you want to say how disgusting it is, there is none. Anyway, these people don't need to be clean.

The fourth child leaned closer to the boss, saw the shiny blade in his hand, and asked in a low voice: "Didn't we say we were going to the south of the Yangtze River when we came out? Could it be that we just followed the young master and didn't have to do anything else?"

The head of the guard looked back at the fourth child, and stretched out his hand to push the other's forehead: "You just do your job obediently, what else do you have to do, don't mess it up when you go out for the first time, or wait until you go back. Twelve people can't even take care of one person, and you will never have anything to do in the future!" The head of the guard said firmly, and patted the other party's head vigorously while talking.

The fourth child shrunk his neck and sat aside aggrieved: "No, I just asked, isn't this boring."

The third child stepped forward to touch the fourth child, and then said to the head of the guards: "This young master doesn't seem to have any enemies, and he went to his own house when he went back. No matter how you think about it, there is nothing wrong, so the fourth child asked one more question. "

"It's nothing but nothing." The guard leader had no choice but to insert the knife into the scabbard.

"What do you mean?" The fourth child poked his head, and when he said this, the second child who was tidying up at the side also stopped and turned to look over.

The leader of the guards sighed, knowing that he had to say something, so he only said a name in disguise: "Seven Sage Kings."

The room became quiet in an instant, and the four of them had their own thoughts. The head guard saw that they would not ask any more questions, so he continued to pack his things with peace of mind.

After living on the boat for more than a month, they finally arrived at the land. Zhen Zhu arrived in Suzhou first, and when the boat docked, she heard someone calling Master Zhen Zhu. When Zhen Zhu turned her head, she saw a man she didn't know, wearing clothes like a housekeeper. Seeing Zhen Zhu and his party rushing forward: "This is Young Master Zhen Zhu, right? The younger one is serving your uncle and master, and the master ordered the younger one to come and pick up the young master back home."

This man is very good at talking, and before Zhen Zhu could respond, he said a lot, and Jin Bao who was beside him stepped forward and said, "So it's from my uncle's family, so the news came so quickly?"

The man hurriedly said: "My little one sent someone to wait on the shore every day. I sent a letter from Jiangning before, knowing that Master Biao is coming. I calculated that it will take about a few days, so I was able to receive Master."

Zhen Zhu nodded, and took a step forward. The housekeeper of the Li family hurriedly ordered the sedan chair to be brought over. Song Zhaoyong, Jin Bao, and Zhang Qing who were behind them all arranged for the sedan chair and horses, which were all available.

The sedan chair passed through Suzhou Street, and the street was vaguely lively, but the parade riots that I heard before were not seen at all, and there were occasional yells among the crowd, because it was a long time ago when I came to Suzhou, so Zhen Zhu didn't have too much trouble in her head. Many impressions, the memory of the previous life has been gradually lacking, and more is the influence of this life.

Li's house is not small, but the staff is actually very simple. Zhen Zhu's grandfather had many children, but most of them were sent away. Now only Zhen Zhu's uncle is left in Suzhou. The uncle has three sons and three daughters. The official position alone is much stronger than Zhen Yingjia in terms of heirs.

Li's eldest son has married a wife and had a son. He is 25 now, and his son is also eight years old.

When Zhen Zhu entered the door, she felt that the Li family was no different from her own. Anyway, no matter where she went, she would always be greeted and hugged.When he lifted the curtain, he saw a corner door open, a group of people crowded at the door and waited, and when the sedan chair arrived at the door, he saw that his uncle happened to be returning home.

It was also the first time that the nephew and uncle met. When Master Li saw Zhen Zhu, he held him up before Zhen Zhu could salute: "It can be regarded as waiting for you to arrive. If you don't come again, your wife won't even eat gone."

Zhen Zhu felt that these words sounded a little strange, so she turned her head to look, and among a group of people who were familiar to him but also unfamiliar, she saw Li Shi at once. Seeing Zhen Zhu's probe, Li Shi hurried forward One step, but the body swayed, and the nurse at the side hurriedly helped her up.

Everyone welcomed Zhen Zhu into the door, but they had to arrange the twelve first-class guards first. Fortunately, the Li family got the news earlier, and Master Li personally entertained Zhen Zhu, so he stuffed Zhen Zhu into the backyard. Although he is now an adult, But anyway, now at my uncle's house, I don't have too many taboos.

How should I put it, anyway, those of his generation are already married and have children, and those who are younger than him are still ignorant, so Zhen Zhu is missing a lot.

The old lady of the Li family went there a few years ago, and because of this, Mrs. Li was sad for a while. She had been kept from knowing her biological mother.On the contrary, Zhen Yingjia and others knew the inside story. Mr. Li's wife's surname was Gu, and Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Li were on good terms with each other, and they were all concubines who served her. There was nothing to worry about at all, so this time she heard that Zhen Zhu was going to Jiangning first, so she discussed with Zhen Yingjia and packed her things early and returned to her mother's house to wait for her son.

Zhen Zhu didn't know the reason, so she was a little confused, but the mother and son could talk about it at night, first they had to recognize the person, needless to say Mr. Li, the eldest wife of the Li family, Zhen Zhu, had met once, so she also knew each other. The eldest cousin was born tall and burly, but he is not similar to Master Li. The second cousin was born from a concubine and was somewhat weak. The third cousin was born from a concubine, but he was used to domineering since he was a child, because the youngest is the most favored by his mother.

The cousins ​​are all married, so they haven't been able to see each other. The younger one is the eldest son of the eldest cousin's family. He is about the same age as the daughter of the second cousin's family. The better one, seeing that Zhen Zhu had a sweet mouth, but the boy shyly hid behind his mother, unwilling to come out.

Zhen Zhu ordered Jin Bao to give each of the two children a sachet, and then went to wash up. Zhen Zhu's yard was not far from Li Shi's boudoir. Although Li Shi had been married for many years, she still kept her room. After washing, I felt a little sleepy, but thinking that Mrs. Li would come over later, I sat at the table in casual clothes with loose hair, but after waiting for a while, I saw Jin Bao enter the door, facing Zhen Zhu reported: "Someone came from my wife's place and said that the young master was tired from the journey. Why don't we talk about it tomorrow and let's go to bed early today."

Although Zhen Zhu was surprised, he was really tired, and finally he was able to lie on the unshakable bed, so he closed his eyes for a while and fell asleep.
