The Young Master of the Jia Family in the Red Chamber

Although Jane promised that Chris would help him inquire about Mattia's news, he never thought that this matter would go so smoothly.Jian Ming is not the person in charge of the fleet, he just went out to learn more, so after returning to Beijing, everyone else was very busy, but he entered the palace leisurely. It was He Xi Situ Jing's upcoming wedding.

Seeing that Jian Ming got tired of being with Su Yi as soon as he returned to the palace, Situ Jing couldn't help but jokingly said: "Brother Ming is really biased, but it's just an auspicious saying, you must put Xiaoyi ahead of me." Situ Jing firmly refused to admit it He just can't understand Su Yi and Jian Ming's affectionate appearance.

Jian Ming laughed loudly when he heard the words, and nodded without hesitation: "Although the prince's wedding is a happy event, it happens in every dynasty. It's all a happy event for the Su family, why should His Highness argue with my brother-in-law."

It's okay if Jian Ming doesn't say this, but it's even worse when he mentions Situ Jing. Su Yi is a few months younger than him, and she used to call him Brother Jing when she was young.It's good now, he married Su Yi's sister, and became his brother-in-law. I saw Situ Jing raised his eyebrows, and said with a half-smile: "Brother Ming, don't be too happy, I heard Xiaoyi talking to my father a while ago. The emperor said that he wanted to marry sister Yao as his wife, and his father had already nodded, and said that he would wait for you to come back and ask for your opinion. I guess, he wanted to wait for your marriage to be settled before going down together. Purpose."

At the beginning, when Situ Yan revealed that he wanted to give Jia Hu a marriage, Situ Jing felt that it was inappropriate. Jia Amnesty had not entered the court, and Jia Hu had not yet become an official. Such kindness seemed too generous.It was only later that he discovered that Jia Hu was not the only one who was going to be married by Situ Yan, not to mention Su Yi and Jian Ming, and even Han Qi, he planned to arrange it.In this way, this grace is not only for the four families of Su, Jian, Jia, and Han, but also for the East Palace. It is not a saint who loves the crown prince, so how could he even grant marriages to all four of his companions?

Others may not find out, but Situ Jing has already seen it. Except for Jia Hu, his marriage partner was chosen by Situ Yan himself. Situ Yan did not intervene in the marriage of the other three, but let their elders decide , If you have a suitable target, report it to him.

Situ Jing couldn't be more clear about the purpose of Situ Yan's doing this. This is a warning, and he is reminding them not to cross the line.

Before Situ Jing finished speaking, the smile on Jian Ming's face disappeared, and he said in a trembling voice, "Xiaoyi wants to marry Yao'er, where did you start?"

Su Yi turned her face sideways, avoiding the concise and burning eyes, and asked back: "My fair lady, a gentleman is so good, what's wrong?"

Of course it is wrong, it is simply wrong.Although the daughters of the Jian family were raised as sons, after the age of ten, girls will still learn some things that should be learned.After all, they always want to marry and have children. Jian Yao is an exception. She is 15 years old this year, and she still often dresses up in men's clothes and travels casually. Outsiders don't know, they think that Marquis Anyuan has two sons, and some people secretly marry her. Inquiring about the marriage made Mrs. An Yuanhou dumbfounded. If this continues, how will her daughter get married.

Jian Ming and Su Yi have been friends since they were young, and they have met each other's sisters, but men and women have different seats at the age of seven, Jian Ming only met Su Yue twice from a distance, and never spoke alone.Su Yi has met Jian Yao many times. When they were not very old, Jian Yao, who was wearing men's clothes, went out to play.Two months ago, Su Yi won the first prize, and Situ Yan gave him the autonomy in marriage. Without much hesitation, he said that he wanted to marry Jian Yao.When Mrs. Anyuanhou heard the news, she was so excited that she didn't fall asleep for several nights, and kept thanking the Bodhisattva.

Jian Ming clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands were clearly visible. He wanted to say a lot, but he couldn't say anything. In the end, he pulled himself together and said with a smile: "Xiao Yi, Yao'er's temperament is very brutal. If someday you After a fight, you are no match for her."

It was obviously a joking tone, but when Concise said something sad, Situ Jing found that the atmosphere was a bit weird, so he quickly changed the topic, and took Concise to look at Mattia's two latest paintings, which are Standard portraits of the Supreme Emperor and Situ Yan.

Su Yi didn't say anything more, but cast a grateful look at Situ Jing, he didn't think he did anything wrong.Jia Hu watched everything silently, his rationality told him that what Su Yi did was right, if Situ Jing had a younger sister, shouldn't he ask to marry her too.

Jian Ming has been to Europe, and he has seen many oil paintings, and there are some better ones, but such realistic paintings are rare, so he curiously asked the artist's name.Situ Jing thought for a while, and reported Mattia's full name. He is currently painting the portrait of Empress Dowager Chu.

Jian Jian was stunned at the time. It seemed to be the name of the person Chris asked him to find for him, if it was such a coincidence.

So, when he briefly told about Chris, Situ Jing's expression suddenly became pleasantly surprised. He remembered that Mattia said that Chris's painting skills are very good, and he can even face similar people, because he has never seen him before. The portraits of people who are painted are almost the same as real people.

What happened afterwards was a matter of course. Chris was invited into the palace and reunited with Mattia smoothly.Afterwards, the second aunt of the Jian family who was married was also found by Situ Jing, as well as the palace servants who served Queen Jane back then. According to the information provided by these people, Chris quickly drew a sketch.When they saw the sketch, those who had seen Queen Jane were shocked. The one painted on this painting was clearly the Queen.

Situ Yan was very happy to see the sketch, and he told Situ Jing that his mother had drawn it like this when she entered the palace.Situ Jing burst into tears. Without this painting, he would not be able to outline the face of Queen Jane based on other people's descriptions.Situ Yan also had another idea. After Jane's portrait was finished, he wanted Chris to draw the portrait of Empress Dowager Su in the same way.The Taishanghuang also had a similar plan. If possible, he even wanted to draw portraits of the Taishang and Zuhuang emperors and their husbands for future generations to look up to.

Because it is to be used as a standard portrait handed down from generation to generation, it takes a lot of work to paint. Mattia has been in the palace for half a year, and only painted two paintings of the Supreme Emperor and Situ Yan. Fortunately, the income is not cheap. .He is always counting, and when he earns enough silver, he will go back to Italy to find Chris. Unexpectedly, as soon as the portrait of Queen Mother Chu started, Chris chased him to China, and just like him, entered He became a court painter.Mattia was so excited that he was more motivated to work every day and no longer thought about going home.

Now that her daughter's marriage was settled, Mrs. An Yuanhou shifted her focus to her son. She had taken a fancy to several girls before, and now she asked Jian Jian to respect his opinion.Although the marriage of children is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, under similar conditions, there will still be enlightened parents who let their children choose and choose a favorite within a limited range.Jian Ming shook his head, he said that he will go to sea in the second half of the year, this time he will go farther, and he will not be able to come back for two or three years, he does not want to delay other girls.

Mrs. An Yuanhou panicked, not understanding why her son would do this.At the beginning, Marquis Anyuan asked Jian Ming to go out to sea with the boat, she was very reluctant, but Marquis Anyuan said that Jian Ming is not the eldest son, and there will be no title to inherit in the future, so she gritted her teeth and endured it without her own efforts.

Now, Jian Ming came back with great difficulty. Her heart that had been suspended for a year and a half finally fell to the ground. She was thinking about choosing the right marriage for her son and settling down from now on. Going further, to some America that she has never heard of.

At the beginning of August, on the eve of the prince's wedding, the emperor personally issued a decree to marry several of his companions.Su Yi pointed to the daughter of Marquis Anyuan, Jia Hu pointed to the county lord of Xunyang who was Zhongjing Wangfu, and Han Qi pointed to the granddaughter of Marquis Pingyuan.

Facing her fledgling son, all the methods of Mrs. Anyuanhou were useless. After a period of stalemate, Jianming convinced his father that the outside world was too big, and he didn't want to be tied down in the capital. He wanted to go out, go to those Where no one has been.

After the decree of the marriage came down, the Jia family was the most surprised.After all, Su Yi's marriage was chosen by herself, Han Qi's marriage was said by her parents, only Jia Hu, the Lord of Xunyang County was pointed out to him by a sage, and the emperor's kindness seemed extraordinarily powerful.

Situ Yan has no daughter. As the eldest granddaughter of the Supreme Emperor, the head of Xunyang County has the highest status among the clan daughters of this generation.More importantly, in the Great Xia Dynasty, concubines could not discuss politics, but Yibin had no restrictions.

First, the ocean-going fleet returned and made a lot of money, and then the sage gave Jia Hu a fiancee of the county lord. During this time, Jia She and Zhang were so happy that they couldn't agree with each other. They were Shi Taijun who loved Jia Baoyu so much. He also had to look up to Jia Hu.

The only one who was unhappy was probably Jia Hu, because the day of Situ Jing's wedding was getting closer and closer.He was even a little envious of the simplicity. The royal fleet will go to sea in the second half of the year. This time, the troops will be divided into two groups. One will go to Europe, and the other will go to America.Jian Ming has already said that he is going to America, and Jia Hu has counted the voyage, and it will take two years to come back even if it goes smoothly. It is a foregone conclusion that he will miss Su Yi and Jian Yao's marriage.

Jia Hu also wanted to escape from Situ Jing's wedding, even if he knew it was impossible, he would not be happy to attend the wedding of the person he likes.

Just when Jia Hu's mood sank to the bottom, Shi Taijun also caused him a bad thing, that is, she made people publicize the fact that Jia Baoyu was born with jade, and even posted the name Baoyu. Go out and let people spread the word everywhere, saying that children are easy to raise.

Jia Hu has always felt that compared to the Wang family who has no bottom line, Shi Taijun still has a bit of brains, and would not take the initiative to deceive the Jia family, otherwise she would not have grounded the Wang family cleanly, and even took her grandson to raise herself. Come on, she is also someone who cannot be taken lightly.

Born with jade, born with visions, these are not what ordinary people should have, okay? If you change to someone else's family, you will definitely cover this matter to death, and pretend it never happened. Their family is fine, and you will Spread the word, for fear that others will not know.

That is to say, Jia Jiakong has a title, and Situ Yan and his son also trust Jia Hu very much. Otherwise, if these things are taken advantage of by those who want to, I really don't know what will happen.Jia Hu even guessed that the decline of the Jia family in the original book was one of the reasons.It's hard to stop, the matter has already been spread, Jia Hu doesn't intend to describe it, otherwise it will only become darker and darker, but Shi Taijun's approach, he must beat it, there can be no next time.

Ever since Jia Daishan passed away, Shi Taijun's status in the West Mansion has been high. Although Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng are incompetent, there is nothing to say about filial piety, they are both absolute filial sons.Therefore, when Jia Hu asked Jia Jing to warn Shi Taijun, she was completely dumbfounded.

Jia Jing spoke very harshly. He said that since ancient times, those born extraordinary are not ordinary people. Their Jia family is just the servants of the Tian family. What qualifications do their children have to say that they are born with good fortune? If people report this Going up is a matter of losing your head.

Jia Jing's words were not groundless, Shi Taijun calmed down and thought about it, but he was also terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.She didn't care to pursue Jia Jing's rudeness to the elders, and kept asking how to resolve the matter. Jia Jing sighed, and Fang whispered his idea.

After hearing what Jia Jing said, Shi Taijun's face turned pale instantly, "In this way, Baoyu's future is not all gone."

Jia Jing sneered and said, "It's better to have no future than to lose life, and it's better to have no future alone than a whole family." If Jia Hu hadn't discovered it in time, he wouldn't have known that the old lady in Xifu had done such a thing. Confused, she is putting people from the two prefectures on fire.

Shi Taijun sighed, and finally made up his mind: "I understand, let's do as you want." In April of the following year, Jia Baoyu's Zhou Ceremony, because he caught rouge, pollen and other things, the title of the Jia family The little son who was born of jade is completely famous in Beijing.

At that time, Mrs. Wang was still being grounded. When she heard the news, she immediately became stupid.She remembered that many years ago, she helped Shi Taijun prepare for Jia Hu's Catch Zhou Ceremony. She mixed rouge boxes in the Catch Zhou Ceremony, and even put odorless face powder on Zhang's books that people read to Jia Hu every day. He wanted to attract Jia Hu to take the bait, but he didn't want to reincarnate in heaven, and it was his own son who finally caught Rouge.

Because of Jia Jing's warning, Shi Taijun was in a bad mood. Her beloved little grandson might not even have the chance to become an official in the future.

A few days later, a letter from Jia Min came from Yangzhou, in which she said that she was pregnant. Shi Taijun's lost mood improved because of this.After more than ten years, her hard-working daughter is finally looking forward to her early years. Shi Taijun cheers up and asks Mrs. Zhang to prepare a congratulatory gift for Jia Min.

The prince's wedding ceremony is extremely complicated. Although there is a wedding banquet, there is no ordinary process of toasting.Even so, Jia Hu still got half drunk at the wedding banquet.During the dinner, Situ Jing cast his eyes on Jia Hu several times, but finally moved away.

After Situ Jing got married, Situ Yan officially asked him to work in the court, and he would not go to study in the palace school from now on.Su Yi entered the Imperial Academy, Jian Ming will continue to go to sea in the second half of the year, Han Qi intends to join the army, Jia Hu hesitates and plans to take Jia Lian back to his hometown in Jinling.

"There are still two years left for the rural examination, isn't it too early for you to go back now?" Jian Ming asked with his arms around Jia Hu's shoulder.

Jia Hu slapped his paw off, and said with a wry smile: "We are both degenerates in the world, why do you need to ask more?" It will not change due to the change of distance.

As a newlywed, Situ Yan gave Situ Jing half a month of marriage leave, but what appeared in his mind was another figure.No, I can't think about him anymore. If this goes on, his smart wife will definitely see the clues.

Situ Jing shook his head and continued with his hands. He was carving characters on the jade plate. The pharmacist Liuliguang Tathagata's original vow merit scripture has a total of 760 words. He has been carving it intermittently for these years, and he has only carved less than half of it. , he wants to finish it.
