[Red Mansion] Koi Jia Hu

On this day, as soon as Mo Daru got home, he couldn't wait to call the maid to bring a plate of sugar into the house.

Mrs. Mo came back from her great-grandson's yard and found that the bedroom door was closed tightly. She felt strange and hurried over immediately.

As soon as the door was pushed open, the sweet smell of sugar immediately hit the nostrils.Mrs. Mo stepped in and took a look around, and saw her wife sitting on a chair with a plateful of candy, eating non-stop.

Mrs. Mo's head was full of black lines, she supported her forehead and said: "You closed the doors and windows tightly, just hiding in the house and eating candies?!"

Mo Daru took it for granted, "If you don't eat in hiding, is it possible to eat outside and damage the image of the head of my family and a great Confucian of a generation?"

"Then you can stop eating, can't you?" Mrs. Mo suddenly couldn't help laughing, "Your teeth are loose, and you still eat so much that you are not afraid of toothache? I have been with you for decades, how did I not know that you like to eat this food? "

"Not only in the past, but even now, I still have a normal feeling for sugar, but I really can't help it today." After eating one piece, Mo Daru quickly stuffed another piece into his mouth.

"Can't help it? Where did you say that?" Mrs. Mo became more and more confused the more she heard it.

Mo Daru let out a long sigh, "It's not all the fault of that kid Jia Enhou."

"Jia Enhou? This name is quite familiar, I seem to have heard it from somewhere." Mrs. Mo thought and thought, and after a while, she finally remembered who the owner of the name was. "It's Jia Daishan's eldest son? What did he do to you?"

"What can he do to me?" Mo Daru snorted and said, "It's just that he gave birth to a good son, a soft white and tender ball, and smiled at me as sweet as honey when he saw me. It made me crave sugar for a whole day in the palace."

"No, I couldn't help eating as soon as I got home. After eating half a plate, I still don't feel as sweet as that child's smile."

"No way? Is it as exaggerated as you said?" His wife was dubious and became very curious about Jia Hu. "I will definitely find a chance to meet him someday."

"That kid is cute and loves to laugh. You must like it when you see it. Unlike the brats in our family, they dare not squeak when they see me, just like I am a man-eating ghost."

As soon as this Mo Daru was mentioned, he became angry. How could he, a man who dared to insult the emperor until he was speechless, give birth to such a group of timid offspring?

"Who told you to put on a tiger's face all day long, always speak fiercely, and be strict with the children. Can they not be afraid of you?"

Mo Daru was melancholy, "My face was given by my parents. I was born like this. Can I change it? Besides, what's wrong with being stricter? I also look like this in front of Jia Hu's child, and I speak hard. Yes, why don't you see him afraid? After all, they are useless."

"Okay, okay, everything you say is right." Mrs. Mo knew that she couldn't say anything to this old stubborn, so she simply gave up and stopped the topic that went further and further away.

Just at this moment, a middle-aged man's voice came from outside the door.

"Grandfather, the sixth prince outside the residence is begging to see you!"

The Sixth Prince looks gentle and polite on the surface, but he has a deep scheming heart and will do anything to achieve his goals. Mo Daru dislikes him very much.He suspected that the Sixth Prince was one of the people who plotted against the prince's deposed back then, and he played a not insignificant role.

"If you have nothing to go to the Three Treasures Hall, the Sixth Prince must come here to plead for the Ninth Prince." The corner of Mo Daru's lips pulled down for a moment, and he snorted coldly: "Let him in!"

What he expected was right, the sixth prince did come here to intercede for the ninth prince.

Since Mo Daru's punishment for copying books was set, the Ninth Prince copied books non-stop as soon as he was free from class. After only one afternoon of copying, his right hand became paralyzed and lost consciousness, feeling like he was broken.

In addition, at the end of the day, apart from the necessary physiological needs such as eating and going to the toilet, the Ninth Prince has no time to do other things at all.Let him face words and books all day long, and not let him go out to play, this is almost like killing the Ninth Prince.

He couldn't help crying to the imperial concubine that the imperial concubine loved her youngest son, and after hearing all kinds of distress, she turned and cried to the sixth prince.

The sixth prince was troubled by his mother and younger brother taking turns, so he agreed that the noble concubine would come to Mo's mansion to intercede for the ninth prince.

Not long after, the sixth prince came before Mo Daru.At this time, his wife had already left and went to another place. After the servants served tea and retired, only the two of them were left in the house.

Mo Daru didn't want to go around with the Sixth Prince and waste his time eating candy on him, so he cut to the point without waiting for the other party to speak: "Your Highness came to visit because of the Ninth Prince's punishment?"

"My lord predicts things like a god." The sixth prince smiled gently, and gave Mo Daru a hand without leaving a trace.

"Your Highness, you don't need to worry about this old man." Mo Daru said without any emotion in his heart, "Tell the truth, Your Highness, before leaving the palace, this old man asked the Holy Majesty to mention this matter. The nine princes will be punished by copying the four books a hundred times each." , was approved by the Holy One."

"If you want to intercede for the Ninth Prince, reduce the number of times he copies books, or simply abolish this punishment, please turn around and go to the palace to ask the emperor. If the emperor agrees, I have no objection."

"My lord..." the sixth prince cupped his hands and opened his mouth, and Mo Daru interrupted him just as he raised his hand.

He showed a refusal expression on his face, he didn't want to listen to the pleading words of the sixth prince Zhunlai, so he directly offered tea to see off the guests. "That's all the old man said. If there is nothing else, the sixth prince, please go back."

It can be seen that he has made up his mind, and he doesn't want to offend him because of this matter, even though the sixth prince is unwilling, he has to leave.

After leaving the Mo residence in despair, the sixth prince ordered someone to send a letter to the noble concubine, asking her to intercede with the emperor.

That night, the imperial concubine's eyes became red and swollen, and she put on a dismal make-up and begged to see the emperor.

She didn't speak when she saw someone, but kept crying silently.

Daqian Mansion was among the old people who lived beside the emperor, and now only the imperial concubine is left alive in the world.The emperor was thinking about his old love, even though he knew that the imperial concubine was showing this gesture on purpose to show him, it didn't hurt her face.

In the end, the emperor took a step back.

He warned the noble concubine that if the Ninth Prince made such a big mistake of hurting the teacher next time, he would never forgive him lightly, and it would be useless for anyone to plead, so he reduced the Ninth Prince's hundred copyings to ten each.

In addition, the emperor ordered the ninth prince to plead guilty to Mo Daru who had been punched by him, and sent eunuchs to give Tu Yuan, Jia Hu, and the seventeenth prince a batch of comforting rewards.

Up to this point, the turmoil seemed to be over on the surface, but in fact the Ninth Prince secretly hated the humiliation brought to him by Jia Hu and Tu Yuan, secretly waiting for an opportunity to make small moves.

However, the Ninth Prince has been feeling a bit bitter recently.

I don't know what kind of bad luck he had. Recently, he has been suffering from minor illnesses. His body feels uncomfortable every two days, headaches, brain fever, wind-cold diarrhea and other symptoms appear in turn.

Under such circumstances, he was listless almost every day, and even after more than ten days, he didn't finish copying half of the book, and because of this, he was reprimanded by Mo Daru in front of everyone.

What made the Ninth Prince even more frustrated was that while he had become a medicine jar and couldn't leave his mouth all day long, the sick man Tu Yuan in his mouth seemed to have taken a magical medicine, and his sickly pale face gradually became healthy. Ruddy, the body has not had symptoms for a long time.

Faced with such a phenomenon, sometimes the Ninth Prince doubts very much whether the illness that has plagued Tu Yuan for many years has come to him.

On this day, when the Ninth Prince got up, he felt a burning pain in his throat and one cheek.

He thought that the sore throat was just caused by eating too much oily and spicy food last night, so he didn't care about it, thinking that it would be good to drink some fire medicine when he came back from school.

On the other hand, because of his frequent sick leave recently, Mo Daru thought he was evading punishment and scolded him several times.The Ninth Prince didn't want to be scolded bloody again because of the minor symptoms of getting angry, so he went to the Shang study as usual.

Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, Ninth Prince's painful face swelled at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it didn't take long for it to become twice the size of the other face.

Jia Hu was the first to notice the change on his face, as if a little squirrel discovered something surprising, its eyes widened for a moment.

Due to various reasons, the eyes of other people in the room drifted uncontrollably to Jia Hu from time to time.

When they noticed the change in Jia Hu's demeanor, everyone followed his gaze subconsciously, and immediately included the Ninth Prince's swollen face.

Just at this time, the master announced that school was over, and immediately the princes started discussing one after another.

"Pfft! Look at Brother Jiuhuang's face, it's almost swollen into a steamed bun."

The Seventeenth Prince still clearly remembers what Jia Hu said about lying and bad mouth, and he spoke first: "I know, Brother Ninth Emperor is getting retribution. He lied and framed people that day, so wouldn't his mouth be bad today? "

"...It seems to make sense."

The princes thought about it carefully, and felt that it really seemed to be the same thing, but they still thought it was just a coincidence in their hearts.

After all, there are countless people in the world who utter lies every day, especially those who live in the palace, who tell countless lies, why don't you see their rotten mouths and tongues?

However, this does not prevent them from playing with the Ninth Prince.

Unlike them, Jia Hu's small face was full of seriousness, and he said like a little adult: "That's right, you must have corrected without knowing your mistakes recently."

The fourteenth prince took advantage of the situation and said, "According to what Jia Hu said that day, General Jia almost became dumb because of it. Fortunately, brother Ninth Emperor, you only have a problem with one side of your face. Before the whole mouth is rotten, you should hurry to pray to God and worship Buddha." Admit your mistakes and see if there is any room for salvation."

"Otherwise, you may become the first prince whose mouth is rotten due to lies since ancient times. When the official historian records it in the history books, future generations will definitely laugh their heads off."

The Ninth Prince slapped the table, causing the table to shake several times. "It's nonsense! This prince just got angry after eating too much spicy and hot food!"

He spoke convincingly, but actually his heart was very empty, Gein reminded him of the seventeenth prince's words, and made him recall another incident related to Jia Hu that day.

I remember that he was furious at that time, cursing that Tu Yuan would die of illness as soon as possible, but Jia Hu confidently assured that as long as he was there, no illness would come close to Tu Yuan, but would only entangle others.

He has always been the healthiest prince in the palace, and he may not get sick once a year or two, but this time he has been getting sick strangely.

Isn't everything that happened to him a true portrayal of what Jia Hu said that day?

In addition, since he was a child, he has told countless lies, big and small, and his mouth has never had any problems because of it.On that day, Jia Hu mentioned that there was something wrong with his mouth today.

The more the Ninth Prince thought about it, the more he felt that Jia Hu was evil, and the gaze cast on him turned strange.

Looking at it, he suddenly had an idea and suspected that Jia Hu was the reincarnation of a demon.

Jia Hu moved to Tu Yuan's side, grabbed his finger and shook it, and whispered: "The Ninth Prince looks at Hu'er with strange eyes."

Without even thinking about it, Tu Yuan instinctively stepped in front of Jia Hu, blocking the Ninth Prince's flashing eyes for him. "Why is Brother Jiuhuang looking at Hu'er like this?"

Then there was a rare and weird scene, the Ninth Prince didn't say a word, just snorted towards Jia Hu and Tu Yuan, and with a smile that victory was in front of him, he strode out of the Shang study.

He has to make good arrangements, even if Jia Hu is not a demon, he still wants Jia Hu to be a demon.As long as the father believes in him, Jia Hu will be separated from the palace for the rest of his life if he doesn't die. Let's see if Jia Hu and Tu Yuan will still laugh tomorrow!

"Pack up your things, let's go to the emperor's grandmother." Tu Yuan turned around and patted Jia Hu's head, and said warmly.

Tu Yuan was raised in the Empress Dowager's palace since she was a child, and now she still lives with her old man.Because every day after school, he would take Jia Hu to his palace to see the koi, and gradually, Jia Hu got to know the queen mother well.

Jia Hu forgot about the Ninth Prince for a moment, and nodded excitedly. "Okay, okay, the kidney bean cake in the Queen Mother's palace is the best."

Tu Yuan pinched his nose and said, "Little glutton."

"Hee hee." Jia Hu smiled happily with her small face held high.

Suddenly thought of something, Jia Hu puffed up her bun face, and pressed her small head against Tu Yuan's stomach with her forehead drooping. "But the queen mother's grandmother feeds Hu'er every time, so that Hu'er's stomach is round, and Hu'er can't eat any delicious food when she comes home."

Yes, as soon as Jia Hu arrived at the Empress Dowager's Palace, the picture changed to him feeding the koi and the Empress Dowager feeding him.

This picture appeared in Tu Yuan's mind, and he couldn't help but curl his lips. "That's fine. I'll tell her that I won't feed you when I see her old man later."

Jia Hu didn't agree in one breath, but shook her head and said: "When feeding Hu'er, the Queen Mother's grandma smiled very nicely! Let her feed her, she doesn't like to smile anymore."

"No wonder she likes you so much, she treats you like her own grandson within a few days." Tu Yuan smiled warmly, closed his eyes and whispered, and then said to Jia Hu: "Then I'll tell her to feed less, give me You leave half empty stomach and go home to eat, okay?"

Jia Hu smiled, nodded and responded with a long milky sound: "Okay~"
