The Rebirth of the Red Chamber as Lian

It was midsummer, but the atmosphere in Jiangnan was quite chilling.The commotion between Yu Wenhu and Jia Lian made the old emperor in the capital scratch his head.The administration of officials in Jiangnan has always been worrying, and he has long thought of rectifying it.This time I sent my son there because I wanted him to know what to do, but I didn't intend to make a serious move right now.I have just experienced chaos such as coercion, rebellion, etc. Now it is time to strive for stability, and it is not the time to act in the south of the Yangtze River.

Flipping through the secret reports from Jiangnan, the old emperor also hated those corrupt officials in the fish and meat village.However, these two children are also too serious.Not to mention the cannon fodder thrown out by Jiangnan officials, there are ten or twenty corrupt officials they "bumped into" by themselves, and the prefectures and counties under Liangjiang have almost made them toss all over.Fortunately, they also have a sense of proportion, and the biggest fish that was killed was just a magistrate.

"Here, take it and have a look. They are all your good sons, so courageous that even Hu'er was driven crazy by the people he led." The old emperor threw the booklet on Jia She, and said angrily.This guy made it sound like he was walking in the cabinet, but look at his lazy appearance, how can he have the consciousness to be a courtier and share the worries of the king? !If you ignore him, you will fall asleep.

The weather in the capital is already very hot in June, but the place where the emperor stays is always different.There are huge icebergs in the corners of the room, as well as large and small ice basins arranged in a patchwork pattern.The scorching sun hangs outside, but the room is refreshing and pleasant. There is no better environment for sleeping than this.Jia Amnesty leaned on the cool pillow, squinted his eyes and tilted his head. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, he would have been lying flat.

He was startled when Zhezi fell on him, he sat up straight suddenly, and subconsciously touched the corner of his mouth with his hand.Then, as if suddenly realizing where he was, he quickly put down his hand again, and frantically picked up the booklet to read.But all the attention was on the old emperor, and he didn't even know that he had taken the memorial.Seeing the old emperor blowing his beard and staring at him, he responded shamelessly with a begging smile.

In fact, His Majesty She is also suffering in his heart!You said that he is obviously an old dandy, what he knows best in his life is eating, drinking and having fun, plus pondering some antique calligraphy and paintings.He doesn't know anything about the country's major affairs, taxation and finance.Speaking of which, he is also one of the cabinet ministers now, he is so busy that he seldom returns home, but in fact he is just a show who doesn't know what to ask.

Sometimes he really felt that the emperor deliberately punished him, and would rather let him do nothing in the palace all day than let him stay cool.Facing the envious and jealous gazes of his colleagues on weekdays, His Majesty She really wanted to say, who made me suffer!Thinking about his happy and carefree days in the past, and comparing it to the present, he is simply a coolie who wakes up early, works late at night and has no holidays.

Although the old emperor glared at Jia She, he was quite happy in his heart.He knew that Jia Amnesty didn't want to participate in government affairs, and he didn't like to run errands every morning, but he was willing to see this bastard who couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to bear it any longer.It seems that there is a saying that when I see that you are not good, I feel relieved.The old boy saw his embarrassment back then, and now it's time for him to collect interest.

When the cheap father was in dire straits in the palace, Jia Xiaolian was taking Yu Wenhu to enjoy the beauties and delicious food in Shili Qinhuai.The place where the golden powder of the Six Dynasties gathers, between Yingge, Yanwu and Shengping, the two young princes wander among them, but what they pay most attention to are the various special snacks.

"The Huangqiao biscuits of this restaurant are well-known far and wide. You should buy some more to take home. Hehe, brother Wen may not know, but this is a time-honored brand. It was my father who introduced me to Jinling last time. Maybe hundreds of years from now we will no longer be around, but this craft has been handed down." Jia Lian patted the cake crumbs on his hands, took the handkerchief Kun Lun handed over and wiped the corners of his mouth.

Is there anything Yu Wenhu wants to eat in the capital, but he really has no experience of walking and eating sesame seed cakes in the street.But Jia Lian did it so naturally, he did things that should have been slightly rude, but there was no smoke and fire.Before he knew it, there was only half of the biscuits in his hand.Brother Lian is good-looking, and he looks good in everything he does!

"Second Lord Lian, my young master, please tell me about the Confucius Temple." A young man dressed as a servant wandered around a few people for a long time, leaned over with his head lowered as if he had made up his mind, and stammered.After finishing speaking, he looked up at Jia Lian with a red face, and ran away sullenly without waiting for anyone to reply, leaving Jia Lian and Yu Wenhu looking at each other in blank dismay.

"Confucius Temple...Brother Wen, come with me to have a look, okay?" Jia Lian smiled meaningfully as he watched the young servant's disappearing back.He said he was a servant, but his actions and gestures were completely like a daughter's.I'm afraid...it's not the young master's invitation, but the beauty's appointment.However, who is the good girl who can keep track of his whereabouts in Jinling?As soon as he shook the folding fan, he already had a guess in his heart.

"Brother Lian is really recruiting. Forget it, I'll let you go and see, and I'll check for you." Jia Lian could see it, and Yu Wenhu couldn't see it wrong, and his handsome face turned dark.He was still worrying that there would be no progress, and there would be poaching soon.He knows that Brother Lian is attractive, but are the girls now so sassy?Is it really possible to invite men on the street?

Wang Xifeng was dressed as a handsome young gentleman, followed by two handsome servants, standing at the Juxing Pavilion in front of the temple, stretching his neck and looking around.This time she was going back to her hometown in Jinling to pay respects to her parents, and it happened that she heard that Jia Lian was also in Jinling, so she decided to meet her.Last time, she heard her aunt talk about her marriage with Jia Lian, saying that her uncle had already mentioned it to her aunt.However, there was no news after that.

For Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng liked it in his heart.Although they had only met once, this girl seemed to fall in love with him at first sight.Furthermore, the two are very well matched in terms of appearance and family background. If Qin and Jin can achieve the good of Qin and Jin, it will be a good story.Wang Xifeng understood from an early age that women are tools for family marriages.That being the case, why not pick one you like? !

Later, she secretly inquired and found out that because of her marriage with Jia Lian, the eldest family of Jia's family had made a big fuss.Not only did he disagree with their marriage, but he also forced the second room to separate the family, driving the aunt and the others out of the main hall.For this reason, Wang Xifeng cried secretly, but secretly hated Jia Lian and his son.With her family background and personality, I don't know what else they can pick out, but they treat her like this!

As the daughter of the Wang family, one of the four major families in Jinling, and the niece of a first-rank official, Wang Xifeng is still very confident.If it weren't for her father's lack of official position, she would have gone to the draft and entered the palace as a concubine, how could it be cheaper for the Jia family.She was used to being praised, but suddenly she was disgusted, Wang Xifeng naturally couldn't accept it, she wanted to ask Jia Lian herself why their family looked down on her.

"Jia Lian, here." At this age, Wang Xifeng was flamboyant, dressed in men's attire without being too feminine, on the contrary, she was extremely beautiful.Even the two of them, who were used to beauties, had to admit that this girl was stunning.Jia Xiaolian signaled Yu Wenhu to wait aside, and he went to talk to Wang Xifeng alone.After all, she is also a little girl, so the embarrassing thing should not be seen by too many people.

"Let me ask you, do you know that our family has talked about your marriage?" Wang Xifeng really deserved the title of hot pepper, and asked straight to the point as soon as he came up.But after all, it is a girl's house, with a faint rosy face, and a pair of red phoenix eyes slightly slanted, not daring to look at Jia Xiaolian.Feng Lazi, also had a youthful and green years.

"I've never heard of this, it looks like you're a servant. When I was young, I had a fortune teller, saying that it's not appropriate to talk about marriage too early, so my family hasn't started making arrangements for me yet. One more thing, I still have martial arts exams to take. I don't have that in mind for the time being." Jia Lian shook his head and denied, it's better not to talk about it, otherwise it would hurt the face of the girl's family too much, "You, it's not right to go out like this, you'd better go home quickly and be careful on the way."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and planned to leave. He came to see Wang Xifeng just to confirm his conjecture, but he didn't intend to have anything to do with this girl.But Wang Xifeng didn't intend to let him go just like that, and she turned red with anger, "Stop! I know everything, and you don't need to lie to me. My aunt is going to propose a marriage, so it's fine if your family doesn't agree. Bully her with an excuse. What do you think of our royal family?"

Jia Lian looked back amusedly, raised his eyebrows and said, "What can I think of your royal family? Then what do you think of your royal family, one of the four major families in Jinling? After the prefect ruled the counties? The home of the Jingying Jiedushi? Isn’t this bunch of titles great? Then what do you think our Jia family is? My father is the king of Zhongrong County, and he is the emperor’s confidant and favorite minister. With my family’s power, even if we bully your royal family, so what?”

"Also, the marriage you mentioned. Even if your aunt mentioned it, so what? I don't mention it, it's for you and your family to save face. But since you don't want this face, I will tell you clearly. Girl, With your status, you are not worthy of my young master. Well, I am also a young prince, not to mention that you are just a niece, even Wang Ziteng's own daughter may not be worthy of your status."

Listening to these angry words, Wang Xifeng's eyes widened and her brows stood upright, she was so angry that she was shaking all over.Since she was a child, she has never been looked down upon like this. Even if her parents died, her life was smooth sailing.This was the first time someone despised her so much, but it also revealed the hidden scar in her heart.She gritted her teeth and vowed in her heart that Jia Lian must pay the price.

"How is it?" Yu Wenhu asked with concern, staring at his expression with good eyes, for fear that his younger brother would be seduced by a little girl.In particular, this girl from the Wang family had discussed marriage with brother Lian. Although she was later disturbed by Jia Amnesty, Prince Su was still quite hostile.He and Jia Lian are not sure about each other for a day, so they have endless troubles!

"What can I do? She's a girl, Brother Wen is still afraid that I will suffer? It's just a little girl who can't recognize her identity. She can't make big waves. It's okay." Jia Lian sneered and tapped his arm with a fan, Smiling and squinting, "However, Wang Xifeng's ability to catch our whereabouts so accurately is not something that a boudoir girl can do. I don't know who's handwriting here..."
