The Zhen Family Brothers in the Red Chamber

On the second day, Zhen Zhu went back to Zhen's Mansion to find the old lady. After all, the turmoil in the capital had just passed, and he was still interested after hearing about the actions of some empresses.When Mrs. Sun heard that Zhen Zhu was coming, she hurriedly ordered people to welcome them in quickly, and also ordered the servants in the mansion to prepare melons and fruits.

"I also brought over the jacket that I ordered them to make a few days ago. I happened to see Brother Zhu coming here to try on the size. If it doesn't fit, I can change it again." The old lady touched the bun on her head, thinking After thinking about it, he looked at Jin Hua'er, "I also took out the satin that was sent from Jiangning a while ago, and ordered the sewing room to come over, and this time I kept the size of the young master, so that it will be gone when I make New Year's jackets in the future. Don’t worry about size anymore.”

Jin Hua'er responded, then turned around and left the room. Nanny Song comforted Sun with a busy smile, "I just measured the size today, and there are still some days to wait until the Chinese New Year. By then, my brother will grow taller, isn't it?" I don't usually come here, and the old lady is too anxious."

Mrs. Sun sat on the step with a smile on her face, and waited for Zhen Zhu to enter the door. Then she kowtowed and got up. She found that the old lady seemed to be much older. Because of maintenance, her black and white mottled hair was almost completely white now, and her face The wrinkles on the skin are more clearly visible.

"I haven't seen the old lady for a long time." Zhen Zhu followed Sun's wishes and sat on her left, and then saw a servant girl serving two cups of tea in the room.

Mrs. Sun stretched out her hand to Zhen Zhu, but Zhen Zhu was taken aback for a moment, but she took it. The old and the young held hands together, but Mrs. Sun's temperature was higher.Mrs. Sun looked at Zhen Zhu carefully for a while, then smiled and said, "A few days ago your father wrote to me asking me how you are doing now, but I don't know how to answer, going to Rehe is fun?"

Zhenzhu didn't let Sun ask about this first: "The palace in Rehe has just been built, but many grandchildren can't go there, and the ones who can play occasionally are similar to Jiangning's courtyard." Thinking it was in front of Mrs. Sun, they described it in shallower words, using colors and shapes directly. Mrs. Sun listened intently, and drank the tea at hand after Zhen Zhu finished speaking.

After Zhen Zhu finished drinking, a maid in an emerald green coat stepped forward to pour tea, her face was slightly rounded, she looked familiar, Zhen Zhu thought about it but didn't remember it.The maid poured the water and retreated to the side, only then did Zhen Zhu realize that many of the people serving in the room were unfamiliar faces.

Mrs. Sun ordered people to drag the fruit plate up, and then ordered Zhenzhu to eat some, and then said: "The palace in Rehe was built because the tribes on the grassland were afraid of getting smallpox after entering the Central Plains. The Holy Majesty built it to reassure the tribes. , the style of gardens in Suzhou and other places in the south of the Yangtze River is naturally used, that is, you don’t think it’s unusual.” Sun waved her hand and ordered the people below to bring up the finished clothes.

As a young man, Zhen Zhu never cared about food and clothing. Most of the time, he would wear whatever the people below sent him. Therefore, the only things left on him were King Yong and His Majesty. give something.

"It's enough to wear on weekdays, why bother the old lady so much." Zhen Zhu felt a little embarrassed.

"Where is the trouble? There is nothing to worry about on weekdays. Now that your wife is not in the capital, everyone who waits around you is not at ease." Sun rested her chin on one hand, and then smiled on her face, when she said this , glanced at the little maid standing aside with her head bowed.

It would be too stupid for Zhen Zhu to say that he didn't know Sun's plan, but he was only ten years old, so wouldn't it be too early to arrange people in this room?

Mrs. Sun didn't explain it, but just said to Zhen Zhu: "If you have no objection, I will arrange some people to watch over the unoccupied yard for you on weekdays. I have brought in a few fresh-looking ones here. Just take a look. If it suits you, I will serve you in your yard in the future."

Zhen Zhu thought for a while, and then agreed. Anyway, now that she is not in the yard, the old lady still has to give her face.

"Since the old lady looked good, grandson naturally has no objection." After he finished speaking, Sun smiled and praised Zhen Zhu for being sensible, and then asked Zhen Zhu to try on two clothes and changed her clothes. It's just two eleven or twelve-year-old girls who can be seen to be well-trained and skilled in serving others.

Waiting for Zhen Zhu to have dinner with the old lady, she left, and when he returned to the courtyard of Prince Yong's Mansion, she heard Brother Si waiting in her room, Zhen Zhu felt that she hadn't breathed evenly yet, Bring it up again.

Seeing Pearl entering the door, Brother Xiaosi said strangely: "What kind of physical work are you doing here? You are listless. If you don't know, you might think someone is bullying you." He paused and swallowed his saliva while talking. , and then wondered, "It's not really that unlucky to meet my second and third brothers, right?"

Zhen Zhu hurriedly waved his hand, and Song Zhaoyong, who reached out his hand, told Zhen Zhu, and put the clothes he brought from Zhen's residence into the closet.

Brother Xiaosi saw the new clothes and hurriedly asked Song Zhaoyong to bring them over. He picked out a brightly colored one and shook it off, and gestured to Zhen Zhu: "This material is really good. Where did it come from? Why haven't I seen you wearing it before?" ever so fresh?"

Zhen Zhu's view of the color of clothes has always remained in the aesthetics of adulthood, so to other young teenagers, it looks too old-fashioned and too simple, but Zhen Zhu herself is not aware of it, but any new one is the same as a new one. An old one, he must reach out for the one he is used to, if he has a good temperament, it is okay to say, but Zhen Zhu can't bear to be wronged, so Zhang Qing and Ran Hong both greeted the sewing room workers, the same The problem was solved by making a bunch of clothes of the same style.

Zhen Zhu rubbed her head and said: "You also know that my old lady is in the capital now, didn't something happen a while ago, so I went to see, why is the fourth elder brother in my room?"

"Ah, what's more, because of the turmoil in the palace, the Holy Majesty ordered everyone to go back to the mansion to study. The princess arranged for a few gentlemen to teach. I thought that if this is the case, we will still sit together in the future, and you are still the fifth younger brother in the mansion. It is also time to go to school, and although the sixth brother is still young, it is said that he will follow." The fourth elder brother replied sullenly, he went to his biological mother before, but still did not get any eager response, but he is used to it , but the other party said something that made him quite depressed, so he couldn't bear it.

Zhen Zhu carefully looked at Brother Xiaosi, and saw that the other party buried her face in her arms while talking, obviously there was something else going on, so he took the clothes from Brother Xiaosi and handed it to Song Zhaoyong, Then he ordered Ran Hong to make tea, and he sat next to Brother Xiaosi.

"What's the matter, don't you want to study in the mansion? Isn't there more people and more chaos in the upper study room?"

"Go to my mother's concubine today. My mother's concubine told me not to get close to my younger brother." Brother Xiaosi still didn't feel that there was nothing wrong with saying this, and he regarded Zhen Zhu as his own, so he silently complained.

"Since my fifth brother was born, my mother and concubine have been a little strange. Now that I have my sixth and seventh brothers, my mother and concubine are even more strange. She even told me not to get together with them, as if something would happen between my words, but I asked my concubine, but she didn't tell me."

Ever since Brother Xiao Si became sworn brothers with Zhen Zhu, he felt that Zhen Zhu was no one else, and he only felt that he had a clear conscience, so he also said what other people could not say, but after saying it, he felt that he He made a mistake, so he anxiously waited for Zhen Zhu to reply.

Zhen Zhu didn't care too much, anyway, he knew everything about Prince Yong's mansion, whether it was on the bright side or under the sun, most of the time he was still watching things from the perspective of a bystander, even though he still felt that before The feeling towards King Yong is because lard is confused, but he is still like this now, so he can only give up on himself. The person she likes slept with someone else, after all, it was King Yong. Zhen Zhu reckoned that it was because she died once, so she was so daring, and maybe it was because she hadn't seen her family for a long time, so she turned to King Yong. There was an emotion similar to that of relatives, who made them always so close, in the final analysis, it was because King Yong took too much care of him that caused this.

Brother Xiao Si was still waiting for what Zhen Zhu would say, but seeing Zhen Zhu in a daze, he felt depressed for a while, and stretched out his hand to push, but Zhen Zhu was not prepared, and fell down in an instant, only hearing the touch bang!Scared everyone in the room!

When King Yong knew about this, he went down to court. Because of the downfall of the prince in the court, a lot of people are making trouble now. In the past, all the members of the prince’s family were expelled. No matter how big or small the official position is, the emperor dismissed them all and investigated them. He cut off the prince’s wings. It was completely clean, King Yong looked so sad, but in the end, the struggle for imperial power has always been like this, if you are not prepared for failure, you don't need to say anything about desperately now.

He rested in the sedan chair, and listened to Liu Jinzhong's report about Zhen Zhu's head injury except for the palace wall. His face turned cold, and he asked in a low voice, "What's going on."

Liu Jinzhong replied cautiously: "I heard that when I was arguing with the fourth elder brother, I accidentally knocked on it."

"Have you invited the imperial physician to see it?" King Yong frowned, with a dissatisfied expression on his face.

"The concubine has already taken the imperial physician with her. The imperial physician said that there should be nothing serious." After Liu Jinzhong finished speaking, he secretly swallowed his saliva, feeling a little cold on his back.

"Why did you knock?" King Yong asked again, he really couldn't figure out why he was so careless when he was so big.

He only thought about Zhen Zhu, and didn't think of his own son, but in King Yong's mind, his son was only used to choose an heir in the future, but Zhen Zhu was the one he focused on cultivating. If you put the two together Let King Yong choose one, and King Yong will naturally choose Zhenzhu. Anyway, there will always be sons in life.

"It seems that the chair that Master Zhenzhu was sitting on had a gap. When he fell down, he hit the high stool, and the Clivia on it fell down and hurt him." Liu Jinzhong felt that this incident was really a coincidence, and he used it while talking. He wiped his forehead with his sleeve.

When King Yong heard this, he raised his eyes and looked back at Liu Jinzhong coldly. The other party shrank his neck and tried to pack the quail. Then he turned his head and looked at the road ahead: "Order, all the sundries in his yard will be given to you." This king is talking about it, as long as everything with edges and corners is covered with leather, this king will not believe it, and it will still hurt you!"
