[Red Chamber] Come for a hexagram?

【Text Beginning】

It was originally Wang Xifeng's birthday, and there was a banquet at home on the day of the birthday. Originally, they planned to invite Wang Ren, saying that the siblings should get closer.But since the wife's incident broke out last time, she already knew that Wang Ren, who Wang Xifeng had contributed to the flames, had completely negative feelings for her, so she shirked that she had a job and didn't show up at all.This made Mother Jia a little dissatisfied, but she couldn't say anything.You can't let people put down what they are doing and go to Jia's mansion to celebrate Wang Xifeng's birthday.That's too much to save face.

But at this party, when Wang Xifeng returned to the room drunk, he ran into Jia Lian and Bao's second daughter-in-law having an affair and fooling around, and said a lot of bad things about Sister Feng.She said that Wang Xifeng will be divorced one day, anyway, she has no one to rely on in her family, so she has nothing to be afraid of.Then he straightened Ping'er.As soon as Wang Xifeng got drunk, she turned her head indiscriminately and slapped the girl Ping'er behind her several times, then entered the room and was about to drag the naked second daughter-in-law Bao out of the bed, chasing and beating her.Jia Lian also seemed to be drinking too much. After Wang Xifeng shouted that you have the ability to kill me, he became more courageous and really drew his sword to chase Wang Xifeng. I don't know how to be sensible, and after a few sips of wine, I started to mess around' as an excuse, but it was just to make Jia Lian turn around and apologize to Wang Xifeng, and the matter was over.

【Text Beginning】OVER

...It was just to ask Jia Lian to turn around and apologize to Wang Xifeng, and the matter was over.

However, Jia Lian was still dissatisfied. He thought it was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, and it was nothing to steal once in a while.But Wang Xifeng made such a fuss, it was really embarrassing.After Jia Mu let the others go out first, she stayed and said to Jia Mu alone: ​​"Huh, with her domineering temper, it should have been dealt with long ago. Because of her, I have only one Ping'er in the house now who is the housekeeper." , where are the other people in the room!"

"Bah! Dirty things." Mother Jia said angrily, "After taking a few sips of yellow soup, I became restless. If it wasn't for me, what would you do if you really wanted to hurt her life?"

"Now the Wang family has nothing to rely on, Wang Ziteng has resigned from office, so what if I really accidentally killed her." Jia Lian was still a little unconvinced.

"Hmph, Wang Ziteng is not an official anymore, but she still has an older brother. The fourth-rank Shaoqing of Dali Temple is in charge of the prison." Jia Mu patted the table and said, "He wants to throw you into the big prison, you I really think we have the ability to get you out! It doesn’t matter how many officials you know, let alone Wang Ren’s other contacts, just those few elder brothers, no matter which one said that! You have to bear the burden of killing Wife's name!"

Jia Lian pursed her lips and said, "Then... She and her brother don't have a good relationship."

"No matter how bad it is, it's a close relative." Mother Jia sighed, "He can't just ignore his sister's death."

"Beating your wife for such an unruly woman, you're going back!" Jia Mu continued: "Listen to me, go back and apologize to her, and take her home. This matter is over. gone."

Jia Lian lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and showed a flattering smile: "I listened to what the old lady said, but I was afraid that she would become more arrogant and indulgent in the future."

"What are you afraid of!" Jia Mu said: "If she offends you in the future, I will also make the decision for you." Then she asked: "This matter should be calmed down as soon as possible, and don't spread it. Don't let Wang Ren know. .”

Although she didn't know what Jia's mother meant, Jia Lian agreed happily. After everyone was called in, Jia Lian really apologized to Wang Xifeng in front of everyone.After being reconciled by Jia's mother, the matter was exposed in this way.It was not advertised.However, Wang Ren still knew.

"Weixian, you said it's not ridiculous." Zhongshun Wanghaha patted the table and laughed: "Later, that unfaithful woman hanged herself!"

Wang Ren: "My lord, if you are free, turn left when you go out, there is a new troupe. It seems that there is a playboy called..."

"Liu Xianglian." Prince Zhongshun took a sip of tea and said, "I have already read it, tsk, that's it. It's not my favorite...how do you pronounce that word?"

"Type." Wang Ren said.

"That's right, Tai Pu." Prince Zhongshun said, "Just like Xiao Jiu, you know the bird language. But this king can't remember it no matter how you look at it. It's a tadpole text."

"I only know a little bit, not as proficient as brother Jiu." Wang Ren said.

"Your sister seems to have suffered a miscarriage." King Zhongshun said suddenly.

Wang Ren's writing hand paused, looking at the smudged mess on the paper, he let out a long sigh.I finally wrote half of it, is this going to be done again?

"My lord, you really know a lot about Jia's affairs." Wang Ren said casually.

"Of course, there are few things that I don't know about the small courtyards in this capital city." King Zhongshun laughed and said, "When I think of the second son of the Jia family back then, he said, 'How do you know I have a red scarf on my waist' The look on my face makes me want to laugh."

Wang Ren: ...

"By the way, Weixian, don't you care about your sister?" King Zhongshun asked.

"I don't have the kind of sister who helps my wife and harms me." Wang Ren spread out a new piece of paper and said.

"Then is that incident really true?" Wang Zhongshun asked, "The thing you didn't mention?"

Wang Ren's writing brush was crooked, and another one was destroyed.

"My lord, you seem to be very free." Wang Ren said.

"Well, I'm very free." King Zhongshun said, "The old lady from Jia's family specifically ordered not to let you know."

"Because I had a bad relationship with Jia's mother." Wang Ren said: "She is afraid that I will make trouble for Jia Lian by taking advantage of my position. In fact, I don't have time to take care of his Jia family's affairs."

"Weixian, is it true that you didn't do it?" King Zhongshun asked again.

"...My lord, didn't you just say that there is nothing in the capital that you don't know about?" Wang Ren said, "My family's affairs are such a big mess, so my lord has never inquired about it."

"I have inquired about it." King Zhongshun replied happily: "The antecedents are all clear, but the result is not very clear."

"Where is it unknown?"

"The reason for Wang Ziteng's resignation." King Zhongshun said.

"I've already resigned, and I asked what it does." Wang Rendao: "Father used to be related to the Jia family, the Xue family, and the Shi family, and he was only acquainted with other officials. Now they have resigned, father He also taught his younger brother at home all day long, and rarely went out. He cut off contact with his in-laws and family. Whether he had or didn’t have it before, it’s all broken now. Just an ordinary old man who resigned."

King Zhongshun nodded, and after a moment of silence, he hummed the opera with ease.

Wang Ren: Can he just let this old man get out?Every few days, I come to him to drink a cup of tea and chat for a while, do I really think this is a teahouse?This is where he, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, works! (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

"My lord, it's getting late." Wang Ren said.

King Zhongshun nodded while humming the opera.

Wang Ren: ...

"The prince has become more and more absurd recently." King Zhongshun suddenly said softly: "A few days ago, he beat and scolded his concubine because of a little eunuch he loves."

Wang Ren: I don't know why I suddenly feel so guilty!

"The reason is that the little eunuch broke the most beloved white jade bottle in the concubine, and was slapped several times by the concubine." Zhongshun Wang hummed: "Then the little eunuch reported it to the prince, and the prince almost divorced her."

Wang Ren: Hehehehe...

"It is said that the prince specially asked for that little eunuch from the palace. I saw it once at the New Year's banquet, and I fell in love with it. I insisted on taking it back." King Zhongshun said.

Wang Ren: This has nothing to do with me. It has absolutely nothing to do with me!

"I don't know if the emperor will be angry if he knows." King Zhongshun said with emotion.

"No matter what, the prince is His Majesty's most beloved son." Wang Ren said softly, "The relationship between father and son is deep."

"Haha." King Zhongshun said with a smile, "You are a virtuous man, when will you accompany me to the new theater troupe on the street?"

"I'm afraid it's inappropriate for me to accompany you to be seen by others." Wang Ren said.

"Why?"

"Because the minister didn't move."

"..." The masculine King Zhongshun fell silent.He really didn't mean that.

Since he met King Zhongshun, this was the first time Wang Ren saw such an indescribably strange expression on King Zhongshun.

"It's just a joke." Wang Ren said, "When the matter is over, I will definitely accompany you when I am free."

King Zhongshun also came back to his senses immediately, and said with a smile: "Weixian is indeed a very busy person now. Forget it, I hope this king can wait until the day you are free."

"There will be. It just takes a little longer." Wang Ren said, "Are you leaving? I will see you off."

"Yes, there is no need to send it off. The king will come to you for tea again in a few days." King Zhongshun shook his teacup and said, "It's just for tea." Then he turned his head and walked away with a smile.

Wang Ren: Even just drinking tea is annoying.

But all in all, King Zhongshun's all kinds of insinuations these days, the life of hiding words in words is finally over.And one thing was confirmed, that is, King Zhongshun was no longer a pure royalist, and he began to consider which prince to take refuge in, and now he had lost expectations of the prince.

After all, Kangxi is now fifty years old, and his physical condition has begun to decline.The change of dynasty is just a matter of time.Every time there is a new emperor, there must be a new batch of blood in the court.Unless King Zhongshun supported the prince from the beginning, even the neutral royalists would not give full trust to the older generation of royalists after the new emperor took office, and the rights of King Zhongshun would definitely be ruled by then. segmentation.

King Zhongshun has no ambitions, but that doesn't mean he is willing to give away what he has already obtained.

Wang Ren put down the brush and looked out the door in a daze.

It has been four or five years since I came to this world, and I have almost forgotten what kind of life I live in modern times.

It is probably from this new year that both Jia's mansion and historians have obviously begun to decline.Now that the past of the four big families is no longer in harmony, the Wang family has gradually cut off contact with the other three families since Wang Ziteng's resignation. Even Wang Ren's new younger brother is closer to Wang Ren, and he is quite a bit towards the Jia family. I don't like it, and I like to come to Wang Ren for everything.Wang Ren also took a good look at his younger brother's face, he was very rich and powerful, and he was also quite talented.Seeing that he looked good, Wang Ren recommended his younger brother to his teacher. The old man Xianyun Yehe was used to it, and as long as he didn't lack money, he didn't want to bring another boy, so he was not very happy.Unexpectedly, after meeting Wang Ren's younger brother, the two got along very well, and even worshiped their master.

In the past year, many things have happened in Li Jia's mansion, such as Jia Lian secretly marrying Second Sister You, Sister Feng forced Second Sister You and her unborn child to death with tricks, Jia Amnesty's failure to force a mandarin duck, Qingwen died of illness, etc. .But the bigger thing is that because Jia Amnesty owed her thousands of taels of silver, she married Yingchun and had the right to repay the debt.This Yingchun was not a concubine's daughter but a concubine's, and the mother was a maid, and the child who was born after being raped by Jia She had a bad family background.Coupled with the fact that he lost his mother shortly after birth and received no attention at home, he developed a dull temperament and tolerated everything.Otherwise, no lady who is a descendant would not be bullied like this.After knowing Sun Shaozu's reputation, Jia's mother's reaction to the matter of marrying Yingchun to pay off the debt was nothing more than "I know".

But what really turmoiled Jia's family was Yuan Chun's death in the palace shortly after marrying Yingchun.Not long after the happy event was over, it was unexpected that the funeral would be ushered in.
