The Honor of the Red Chamber

However, for the concubine Yuan's family visit, the Ningrong Second Mansion did not have a peaceful life, but new decorations were arranged in various places, and the ancestors of heaven and earth were hastily sacrificed, and most of the human relations were neglected. Decorated lanterns, colored silk tied with flowers, brocade pavement, gold leaf-wrapped porch pillars, red lacquered plaques, and red candles as thick as arms, will be lit up by hundreds of them as soon as it gets dark, like a long dragon, illuminating miles around. It is as bright as daytime, brilliant in splendor, and lingering in fragrance and mist, making it look like a fairyland on earth.

When Concubine Yuan and her party entered Ningrong Street, Jia Rong had been standing behind Jia Zhen for half a day. He was in good health, but he didn't feel anything, but Jia Zhen's body was hollowed out by wine, her face was pale and her legs were shaking, and she almost fell down. Next, Jia Rong saw a group of men from the Jia family watching beside her, and she knew that ancient people valued "filial piety". To show her filial piety, she stretched out her hand to support Jia Zhen, but secretly pushed a ray of energy into Jia Zhen's acupuncture point, Jia Zhen I didn't notice it at all.

The royal rules are very cumbersome, the Jia family has prepared for several months for the family-senting villa, extravagant, wasting more than a million dollars?Only the Jia family was emptied, and it took only a quarter of an hour before and after Yuanfei visited the garden. She saw a few key scenery like a horse on a horse and watched flowers, so she invited the female family members to come in and talk clearly. Jia Zhenjia pardoned Jia Zheng and the others The concubine Yuan summoned the descendants of Jia's family, but only Baoyu, who was raised and taught by the concubine Yuan since childhood, was recruited.

Afterwards, a steady stream of poems were sent out, and everyone passed them on, and they saw that they were all written by girls and sisters. Baoyu also included several poems in it, which won a lot of praise. He nodded, but compared with the other sisters, especially Xue Lin, he was inferior, which made Jia Zheng sigh.

Jia Rong also put on the skin of a young master, and she looked a bit coquettish and weak, but she was not that kind of elegant person in her bones, and she didn't know much about it. She just watched everyone complimenting her, and felt impatient, so bored she secretly slapped He yawned, but someone pulled his sleeve quietly. Looking back, he saw Jia Qiang's uncontrollable smile, and stuffed a small bottle of something. In the nose, the spirit suddenly lifted, he couldn't help smiling, and put the vial into his arms.

Afterwards, Concubine Yuan was listening to the opera, and Jia Rong carefully sized up the old official who looked like a jade, about fourteen or five years old, very thin and weak, with a fair and small melon-seeded face, graceful eyebrows and eyes, and a slender waist , among a group of young and lively little girls, she is indeed outstanding, and seeing that Jia Qiang completely ignores other little actors waiting to sing, and only surrounds her, she is low-key and has a good voice, the senior official just Twisting the veil, bowing her head in silence, occasionally raising her eyes to glance at Jia Qiang, her eyes were faint, resentful but expressive, although she was acting petty, she couldn't help but be sympathetic, and only made Jia Qiang turn around, like It turned out that when Baoyu and Daiyu got along, they couldn't help laughing.

But Jia Zhen said in a nonchalant way in front of her, "Since you have been awarded an official position, you should stop messing around like before. Those naughty friends should also be cut off, and you don't have to be gossiped behind your back. Even with the power of the Jia family, your future cannot be guaranteed."

Jia Rong glanced sideways at Jia Zhen, and saw Jia Zhen staring at Jia Qiang closely, with coveted anger and undisguised greed and lust in her eyes, knowing in her heart that she transferred Wupinlong Banwei to Jia Qiang. Qiang caused Jia Qiang to have an official position to protect him. Even if he didn't protect him secretly, Jia Zhen couldn't make up his mind anymore. This move completely annoyed Jia Zhen, so she didn't care, and nodded lightly, "My child understands."

Jia Zhen saw Jia Rong's modest attitude, even though she was already a third-rank official, she was not disrespectful to him at all, and she became more and more complacent in her heart, "You have always been successful, and you have never done anything ridiculous. Seeing that you have done something impressive, I am afraid that you have met this champion. Is your officialdom so messy? If no one reminds you, you will die, and you don’t know what happened. I have a capable person by my side, but he worked as an aide for a first-rank official, now it is just right for you, and I will also help you, so as not to cause you to cause a big disaster, and also implicate the family."

What he said, while implying that Jia Rong's high school is the authority of Jia's family, at the same time, he asked Jia Rong to put his own person in place, just like when he had an affair with Qin Keqing before, and never took this son-in-law seriously.

But Jia Rong is no longer the original Jia Rong, even if he never showed his true nature in front of him during this period of time, he was just too busy and disdain to conflict with him. If he really bullied him like this, he is not the kind Swallowing his temper, he immediately stood up straight, frowned and refused directly, "I don't know where my father found the so-called aides. My child has never heard of the departure of a staff member with a high-ranking official in the court. If there is such a capable person, How could it fall into our hands? Kuang Haier has just become an official now, and is still learning from other seniors. How can he stand up when it is time to keep a low profile? I have to listen and watch slowly. If this person is really It's amazing, let alone put it by my side, it's just a waste of other people's abilities, it's better to stay by my father's side, so that I can give advice to my father."

This was probably the first time in Jia Rong's life to refute Jia Zhen. For a while, Jia Zhen was stunned, and even forgot the normal angry reaction.

Both father and son lowered their voices and spoke quietly, the scene was singing, everyone was shaking their heads and making noise, while paying attention to the reaction of the imperial concubine Yuan, how could they care about their father and son?

Jia Rong didn't care about Jia Zhen, she just stood up and walked out, only to see the bustle and splendor inside the pavilion, Yiyi ah ah ah, a school of luxury and luxury, the outside is deserted and clear, the cold wind pierces the bones, and the garden is full of illusory prosperity, these are two extreme scenes.Jia Rong walked into the shadow of the trees in the garden alone, and took out a cigarette he rolled himself. The smoke was rising, covering all the emotions in his eyes.

Jia Rong did not see this legendary girl of the Jia family until she sent Concubine Yuan to the palace in a sedan chair. It is said that Jia Rong is the first student of the younger generation to be the number one scholar in high school by virtue of her own ability, especially when she was awarded a real military position just now. Yes, even if Concubine Yuan has a bit of political savvy, she will win her over a little bit, which will be more conducive to her foothold in the harem, but for some reason, she never summoned Jia Rong from the beginning to the end, as if she didn't know there was such a person, but let Jia Rong She Jiazheng and the others didn't expect it, they could only frown deeply, with a worried look on their faces.

Jia Rong didn't care about this Concubine Yuan's contempt, because he understood her dismal end better than anyone else. Some people said that Qin Keqing's death was caused by her alone, while others said that her ascension to the throne was just a conspiracy of the royal family, but no matter what It is guessed that the tragedy of Concubine Yuan was already doomed.It's just a stranger who has no feelings at all, and has never had the slightest intention of getting close. It is absolutely impossible for Jia Rong to feel tolerant towards her like Xichun and Daiyu.

It can only be said that Xichun and Daiyu were lucky. They met Jia Rong at the right time and place, and thus rewrote their tragic fate.
