The Zhen Family Brothers in the Red Chamber

Zhen Zhu tried hard to think for a while, but his thinking still couldn't extend from his fingers to the back, and then he heard King Yong say: "Recently, someone in the court made a note to report the debt owed by your father to the Ministry of Households. payment."

"I know about this. It's just that the silver coins were used for the Holy Master's southern tour. The Holy Master also knew why. Why did someone suddenly mention it?" Zhen Zhu was taken aback for a moment, his thoughts turned twice, and he suddenly understood.

The crown prince was abolished, and King Zhongyong is now considered to be the king alone. Although King Qing and King Xian have their own ideas, they are now headed by him. The person who was going for the abolished prince was still coming for King Yong. It is hard to say that Zhen Zhu has all kinds of thoughts, but he can't say much. He only mentioned a few words, but they were all rejected by King Yong. He only told Zhen Zhu to take good care of his illness and left nothing else, after all, the household department is now in charge of King Yong.

If King Yong could be persuaded casually, he would not be called King Yong anymore. Zhen Zhu found that his life had been surrounded by people from that moment on, and even Song Zhaoyong had no chance to intervene. Other times are overwhelmed by the volume of books.

King Zhongyong's family was completely lively, and even Concubine De and others would give Concubine Hui three points of color on weekdays. When King Yong took Concubine Yong to the Concubine De's palace to pay her respects, it happened that Concubine De was kneeling in front of Concubine De. Seeing King Yong come in, he casually said to the kneeling human: "Concubine Hui, just add one more to make it work, and everyone else will follow the old rules."

The kneeling person responded, and then held up the tray and lifted it up. Concubine De took the seal from the hand of the big palace maid and printed one up, and then the kneeling person withdrew.

"Come on, long time no see, it's going to be cold again today, third child, you have to be careful about your ankles again." Concubine De smiled and leaned on the chair, her whole body leaning on her right hand. Speaking again, it was Concubine Yong who spoke up.

"I have already greeted the imperial physician of the imperial hospital. It is still the prescription from previous years. The medicinal materials in the mansion have already been selected, so please worry more about it." Princess Yong is also known as a virtuous princess among several princesses. It's because she has a relatively calm temperament, and secondly, she had the reputation of Miss Siquan before she got married. If Concubine De is a little dissatisfied, that is, King Yong has no son-in-law so far. Grandson, I can't bear to beat the third daughter-in-law with this topic. Some things are natural disasters and man-made disasters. If manpower is insufficient, I can only pray to God and worship Buddha.

"It's getting better like this." Concubine De chatted with Concubine Yong for a few more words, and the two left.

King Yong and Concubine Yong hardly communicate with each other on weekdays. If there is anything to say, it is mostly Concubine Yong who speaks, but King Yong does not speak.The two were walking on the road, and they met King Xian head-on. Concubine Xian had just given birth to a son-in-law, and King Xian walked a little lightly. When he saw King Yong and Princess Yong, he smiled and saluted: "This one is destined, this is just now. Come out from Concubine Demu?"

King Yong saw that King Xian didn't speak, but Concubine Yong responded with a smile: "Seventh brother, are you going to pay respects to nobleman Wei?"

"Concubine Hui's mother seemed to have caught a cold a few days ago. If she doesn't feel at ease, she went to have a look. By the way, she went to pay her respects to the nobleman." The virtuous king nodded. The nobleman Wei lived in the courtyard of Concubine Hui. Due to lack of status, nobleman Wei Therefore, Concubine Hui grew up under Concubine Hui's knees when King Xian was young, and Concubine Hui, who gave birth to the eldest son, had a son herself. Therefore, although he took good care of King Xian, it was not as careful as his own mother and concubine.

Counting the princes in the palace from the front, there are not many Anwen who grew up safely under the knees of their biological mothers. The eldest was raised in the Mingzhu Mansion when he was young. The prince lost his mother at birth, so he grew up under the care of the Holy One. Speaking of which, the mother and concubine of the fourth child died early, and only King Jing was loved. Although the concubine Yi, the sixth child, was still there, he was raised by the queen mother, so these brothers looked at the little concubine below. Brother, I can’t say I’m envious or not, but I really can’t understand those younger brothers raised by their biological mothers who have no rules.

The three passed by, King Yong ordered Princess Yong to leave by herself, and he left on horseback. Princess Yong watched King Yong leave, and then got into the carriage with help.

Zhen Zhu knew that there was someone in the court, so she quietly asked the fourth elder brother to go out. He didn't know many people, but he couldn't bear his father's good foundation, so he ordered someone to send it to the second child in Zhang Xiang's mansion. Letter, the three of them made an appointment to move in Xiaotianyi Pavilion.

Zhang Xiang has two sons, the eldest is called Zhang Ruoyu, the second is called Zhang Ruo'ai, the eldest is a bit more tempered, but the second is a bit offbeat. When Zhen Zhu and the fourth elder brother arrived at the place, he saw the second of Zhang's family gathered at the window to give him a hand. The two waved.

"Come up quickly, I'm waiting for you." Zhang Ruoai moved the stool under her buttocks to Chaoyangkou, and stretched her neck to look outside. Zhen Zhu felt that the other party's behavior was a bit strange, so she stepped forward and followed Looking around for a while, the fourth elder brother was also curious, pressed on the two of them and asked: "What are you looking at, okay, why don't you let the food be served?"

Zhang Ruoai looked at it carefully for a while, then pointed to a man riding a horse in the market and said, "Did you see it, did you see it, it's him."

Zhen Zhu took a serious look at the other party, then frowned: "What's the matter, you know him?"

"Wow, I can know him, hum!" Zhang Ruoai curled her lips, and then greeted the fourth elder brother with a salute, and the fourth elder brother pushed her hands: "Okay, come here every time, did you learn from your grandmother?" , I have never seen your father so rigid."

"Come on, if my father finds out about this, don't break my legs!" Zhang Ruoai made a gesture, then shrank her neck, Zhen Zhu followed, and the three of them sat on the table, "That's Hangzhou Weaving Sun The eldest son of the family is called Sun Daonan, who just came to the capital, by the way, Zhen Zhu, shouldn’t you know each other, I heard that he is a distant relative with your old lady.”

Zhen Zhu nodded: "If you're talking about Hangzhou Weaving, I certainly know him. It's just that when we first met, I was still young. I didn't expect him to be so old now. Speaking of which, he is indeed six years older than me. This year he should It’s sixteen.” But it looks like it’s in its twenties, could it be that it’s premature aging?

Zhen Zhu knew that King Yong hated to form cliques for personal gain, so he himself was quite restrained, but no matter how restrained he was, the three weavings were basically connected to the same root, and they were all relatives, so they still had to meet each other during the New Year, that is, he was in the capital now. , This has been quiet for several years.

Zhang Ruoai came to Zhen Zhu's side, Si elder brother felt that they were going to whisper, so he immediately moved to the other side, Zhang Ruoai pretended not to see, anyway, he and Si elder brother were used to being close, they regarded them as brothers.

"You know, is he... married?" Zhang Ruoai opened her mouth and asked this question.

Zhen Zhu tilted her head and thought for a while: "I should have it, but you also know that I'm in the capital now, and I don't have much contact with my family. If you want to know, I'll ask for you."

"Then you can ask for me." Zhang Ruoai chuckled.

The fourth elder brother answered: "What's going on?" He was very surprised, and looked at Zhang Ruoai with wide eyes.

Zhang Ruoai looked at the fourth elder brother seriously, and then said with a serious face: "Si elder brother, if I tell you today, you have to keep it a secret."

The fourth elder brother hurriedly said, "You still don't believe me."

Zhang Ruoai nodded: "Anyway, you two lied to me at the beginning, and now you can be regarded as my own brothers. Let me make it clear. I met a girl a few days ago, and I saw that boy fighting with that girl a few days ago. I just said hello, I just want to know whose family that girl belongs to."

Zhen Zhu suddenly didn't understand his logic: "Then you ask me now if he has made an appointment. If they make an appointment, are you still planning to intervene?"

The fourth elder brother silently clenched his fist beside him, expressing his support: "If you really like it, let's grab it."

Zhen Zhu could only sigh in admiration that these royal sons are really lively and not afraid of big troubles, and they are also like them, there are a few things that they can't handle.

Zhang Ruoai hurriedly waved her hands: "No, I just want to know who she is."

Zhen Zhu glanced at each other up and down: "And then?"

Zhang Ruoai scratched her hair: "There is no more, I just want to know who she is."

The fourth elder brother didn't think about it: "It's useless if you know it."

Zhang Ruoai didn't know what he should say, but he suddenly saw such a beautiful woman that day, and the other party's age was so much younger than himself, anyway, his biggest thought until now was just to know the name of that woman.

Zhang Ruoai is only twelve years old this year, which is exactly the age of Huaichun when she was a teenager. Zhen Zhu thinks it's not a problem, maybe she doesn't see enough girls on weekdays, anyway, she won't have such thoughts when she sees more girls in the future.

The fourth elder brother was thinking similarly to Zhang Ruoai, so he put one hand on Zhen Zhu's shoulder: "Brother, since she is a relative of yours, you can help me find out, I also want to know what kind of woman can make you happy?" Our Second Young Master Zhang fell in love at first sight."

Zhang Ruoai hurriedly waved her hand: "I told you, I don't like her, I just want to know her name."

Zhen Zhu clicked her tongue helplessly: "Okay, anyway, it's just a matter of one sentence. By the way, I can't just ask about the girl's appearance without any purpose. The old lady will also be confused by my question." gone."

Zhang Ruoai smiled when she heard it, and then hurriedly ordered the people outside to serve the dishes. The three ordered seven or eight dishes, and Zhen Zhu picked and ate some, but the three and a half kids could finish it. Wait. The food was almost ready, so Zhang Ruoai ordered someone to make tea.

Zhen Zhu asked Zhang Ruoai about her father after finishing her meal.

Zhang Ruoai thought for a while, and then thought for a while: "The person who submitted the Zhezi has no family background. His surname is Lu, but he married a descendant of the Luo family. The wife of King Zhongyong who died early is exactly Roche.
