[Red Chamber] Come for a hexagram?

Jia Lian only got 300 taels of silver, and was planning to go out to have a good time, but who would have thought that with a word from the old lady, he would rush to Yangzhou, and it would take two or three months to go back and forth.

But no matter what, Jia Lian didn't refute the old lady's words, packed his things, boarded a fast boat, left the capital and went straight to Yangzhou.During the period, Jia Baoyu clamored several times to follow him, but was dismissed by the old lady and Mrs. Wang who loved Baoyu, so he had to ask Jia Lian many times to bring Sister Lin.

That's enough. Although sister Lin doesn't have her father to protect her, she still has an elder brother who is an official. If her elder brother refuses to let her go, why should he just rob someone directly?

As for the letter, Jia Baoyu didn't see it, but Jia Lian did. It clearly stated that because Lin Jing was an official in Yangzhou, he couldn't go to Beijing, so he didn't bring Lin Daiyu to the meeting.In addition, Lin Daiyu has a warm filial piety on her body, so she didn't go there because she was afraid of offending others.As for the marriage, Lin Jing said that he has already found a family for his sister in Yangzhou, and the marriage has been agreed upon, and the younger sister can marry after she is filial.Let Jiamu not worry.

hehe.The meaning of this refusal is too obvious.It's no wonder that Mother Jia's mood improved after seeing it.

When Lin Daiyu really married to Yangzhou, it is estimated that she will not go to Jia's house again in the future, not to mention Jia's house, unless her husband's family comes to the capital, she will never see anyone in Jia's house again in her life.

Knowing the news, Jia's mother would not be reconciled, she must let Jia Lian go to Yangzhou to find out the truth.

In fact, when Lin Jing sent the letter, he was just looking forward to a family and was negotiating peace.And when Jia Lian really arrived, the marriage had already been decided.Because Lin Daiyu was still in filial piety, she didn't make an explicit decision with great fanfare, but the betrothal gift had already been sent secretly, and her horoscope had also been changed.Lin Daiyu sewed clothes and embroidered patterns at home and was waiting to get married.

This means that the other party of the kiss is also an acquaintance.Do you still remember Tan Xiuwei whom Wang Ren accidentally provoked in Yangzhou, the man named Yi Ming, who chased after Wang Ren's ass for several days and called "Wang Xiandi" to be Qi's brother, and then became friends with Wang Ren.Tan Xiuwei once told Wang Ren that he had no one to rely on when he was young, and it was his uncle Jiang Xing who helped him to keep the property left by his father from being robbed.And the person Lin Daiyu wants to marry is Jiang Yu, the eldest son of the third-rank military officer Jiang Xing.

Jiang Yu is also capable. Although he is only seventeen years old now, he is already the Xuanfu envoy of Yangzhou, from the fourth grade.Compared with Wang Renlai, he is not much inferior.The only disadvantage is that the skin color is inherited from his father, like a piece of black charcoal, and he is not ugly.It's a pity that in the Qing Dynasty, dark-skinned people were not very popular with official ladies.Lin Daiyu didn't mind at all, because the Jiang family was a family of military officials, and the men who came out of the family were rough men who practiced martial arts. Jiang Xing's wife Tan Lin and Jiang Yu's younger sister are both well-read poems and books, and they are easy-going.Lin Daiyu used to be clean and would not suffer much.

In the past, Jia Lian could only stare on the sidelines. After the marriage, he didn't even have a chance to interrupt, and he didn't even meet Lin Daiyu in person. After all, he had already betrothed her daughter. Lin Jing said it was because of Lin Daiyu's reputation. , All men are shut out, not allowed to take a step closer to my sister.At most, Jia Lian inquired about that Jiang Yu in Yangzhou, and then returned to the capital in despair.

But Mother Jia just gave up helplessly when she found out about it. The Jiang family is considered to be the only one in Yangzhou, and the rules are very good, and there is no mess. A 17-year-old fourth-rank military officer can't go wrong anywhere.Even with Jia Mu's face in the capital, she may not be able to find such a good husband's family.

As for Jia Baoyu, when he heard the news, he cried and cried, and then wept helplessly. He was secretly sad for a long time, and his whole body was listless.

It took several months for Jia Lian of Jia's mansion to go to Yangzhou until he came back, and during these months, many things happened continuously on Wang Ren's side in the capital.

After dismissing Jia Lian and his wife, Wang Ren told the person at the concierge, and when he met these two people when he came to visit again, he refused the door no matter what happened, and told him that he was not there.Wang Ren had reminded and suggested to Jia Lian more than once, and the couple took his words as wind in their ears and let it pass.Is he still going to kneel and beg them not to die?

From time to time, the husband and wife have never been kind to him, so it is good that he can mention so much.However, seeing that they still looked like they had died young, Wang Ren knew that these two people would not change their nature, and the Jia family would eventually end up in that situation.

Moreover, the current Jia Mansion is a tree that has emptied its heart. Even if we start to repel the insects now, it may be too late.

Fate is fate after all.

Thirteen said to change their fate, can it really be done?

Shisan, who is now being missed by Wang Ren, is having a meal in Si Age's mansion.

"Fourth brother, what happened to Wei Xian's refusal to raise?" Thirteen asked suddenly.

Fourth master almost choked to death on the vegetables.Picking up the wine glass, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Now...has the news spread outside?"

Thirteen nodded.

"He doesn't care?" Fourth Master said: "Let's not let such rumors spread outside, does it mean that he doesn't want to marry a wife?"

"He also thinks he is useless." Thirteen said.

Fourth Master: =a=

"Two days ago, I tried it for him." Shisan said while picking up vegetables, "It's not useless."

Siye: =口=

"But he didn't clarify the meaning of the rumor." Thirteen said, "Fourth brother, do you know what's going on?"

Siye: ←←

Heh, he doesn't want to say anything now.You went to check it yourself, what else did he say!

"You decided on that one, didn't you?" Fourth Master asked.

Thirteen nodded.

"Forget it, I don't care." The Fourth Master sighed and said, "Since you have all made up your mind, then so be it. It's just Father's side..."

"Father has no time to take care of me now, and... I have already warned those who have unmarried girls in their families." Thirteen said: "Even if the palace mentions it, there is no suitable daughter."

Fourth master: "You... What did you say to them?"

"Hint them." Thirteen said: "To marry me, you must be mentally prepared that your daughter will not live for three months."

Fourth Master:  …

Haha, it's strange that someone is willing to marry a girl.If you can't live for three months, you can't even keep a child. Even if you send a girl as a bargaining chip, toss it as a plaything for three months and then kill it, you will only make yourself a laughing stock of others.

"Fourth Brother, it would be great if you can inherit..." Thirteen whispered again.

Fourth brother: ... so that you can marry a man and come back!Stop dreaming!Even if he is the emperor, he will never agree!Allowing you to collude secretly or even not have any children is already a great concession, if you dare to marry fourth brother in the open, I will tear your skin off!

After all, who is he doing this for!Even if you lose your face, you still have to hold on to face.He doesn't want the thirteenth brother's marriage to a man to be recorded in the history books, it will be criticized by people!

A few days later, Wang Ziteng finally came back exhausted.As soon as he arrived in the capital, he heard the wind and rain all over the streets, and suddenly he held his breath in his chest, unable to swallow it or spit it out.But after all, he was patient first, went to the capital to report on his work, and after all the reports were completed, he went home to toss about the mess.

There are many rumors on the street, and the two most popular ones are about Wang Renbuju and Mrs. Wang's family harming their parents and children.In addition, there are rumors that the maid climbed into the bed and murdered the son-in-law and then planted it on the wife. It's just that these rumors have no impact compared to the first two, so although many people have heard of them, they are not interested in discussing them. The broad ones are the first two.

After Wang Ziteng returned home, he saw that Wang Ren's small yard was empty, and none of his clothes and accessories were there, and all of them had been moved away.In addition, many servants also went to Wang Ren's place with their deeds of selling themselves. Wang Ren's previous small courtyard didn't even have a waiter, and it looked very desolate.It made Wang Ziteng feel a little cold.

He turned his head to look for his wife angrily, and the lady had already prepared Bai Zhi's confession that Wang Xifeng had left for her, and she was sitting in the room.When Wang Ziteng saw her, he was even more angry from the heart. Before anyone could speak, he went up and slapped people in the face, scolded the poisonous woman, and the Wang family wanted to end their children and grandchildren.

Madam was beaten and fell down on the edge of the table, and tears fell down her red and swollen cheeks. She felt that she had been wronged for marrying Wang Ziteng.

"Tell me! Did Wang Ren's dismissal have something to do with you!" Wang Ziteng roared angrily.

Madam shook her head quickly and cried: "This has nothing to do with my concubine! I don't know anything about it. It's just that a maid named Bai Zhi next to him wants to be in charge, and that's why this stupid thing happened!"

"It has nothing to do with you? How dare she drug a master without your instruction?" Prince Teng said angrily.

"This really has nothing to do with me." Madam cried: "After I found out about this, I also asked someone to catch that maid. She already confessed that it was for her own sake... She said that what she took was aphrodisiac, but it was just medicine." Such a consequence was caused by an excessive amount." Then he took out the document.

Wang Ziteng was a little puzzled, so he took it over and looked at it hastily. After reading it, he became even more angry. He threw down the paper and turned around and slapped his wife: "How dare a poisonous woman lie!"

Madam was shocked and frightened, but she still told herself to stand up and not show a guilty expression.She has also read the drawn confession, and there is nothing wrong with it.

"How do you say that? I'm not lying." Madam cried.

"It says that Bai Zhi was given ordinary medicine, but the dose was too large for him to use it." Wang Ziteng said angrily, "During intercourse, the poison was sent out, right?"

"...Yes." Madam said in a low voice with a jump in her heart.

"Isn't that just nonsense!" Wang Ziteng raised his hand and wanted to continue beating, scaring his wife to run away.

"I received a letter before I entered Beijing. The letter said that he had accidentally drank a few cups of medicinal wine when he was traveling with the fourth prince. It is an old imperial doctor who specializes in treating the prince! Is it an overdose of aphrodisiacs, or was it abolished during intercourse? I will ask the fourth elder brother in person. Now I don’t want to lose face. If you let me know this It's true, you just wait to be divorced!"

Madam's face turned pale immediately, and she collapsed to the ground.

Wang Ren was on a trip with the fourth elder brother that day, and he only mentioned to Ban Xia when he came back that he stayed at the fourth elder brother's mansion that night.Ban Xia is a person who doesn't like to show off, so she knows about this matter and has never mentioned it to anyone.Therefore, Madam only knew that he had been fooling around all night and hadn't returned, so she began to interrogate Bai Zhi the next morning.Madam thought it was the result of too much indulgence outside.The dose of the medicine is small, and it shouldn't be effective so quickly, but if you take too much without restraint, it may be abolished.So even if he wasn't with Bai Zhi that night, he must have been fooling around with other women.In addition, on weekdays, Bai Zhi always has a face of "I will be the hostess soon", telling other servants how close Wang Ren and her are, as if they have done something.How could Madam have thought that Bai Zhi was always a virgin, and Wang Renjie was so self-conscious that she didn't even want a maid to guard her bed in the middle of the night.It never occurred to Wang Ren that his relationship with the fourth elder brother was so good that when he went out to play and even fell ill, the fourth elder brother went to the palace to call the imperial doctor.The imperial doctor called by the fourth elder brother is an old imperial doctor who specializes in treating the emperor's princes. It is absolutely impossible for such a person to be bribed to lie.
