[Red Chamber] Come for a hexagram?

Wang Ren turned to Shisan's house. The people in Shisan's mansion saw that Wang Ren had come, and they opened the door to let Wang Ren in without asking any questions.It feels like the mansion has welcomed back its second owner.

"Where is Thirteen?" Wang Ren asked.

"Study." The boy next to him said.

"This time?" Wang Ren looked at the sky and said, it was already Wushi, that is, between seven o'clock and nine o'clock in the evening.Although this time is not too late in modern life, you can still go out for a stroll or read a book or play games.But in ancient times when there were no incandescent lamps, reading a book by the dim candlelight of one or two candles was quite useless.

No matter how boring Wang Ren is, he never reads on the vehicle or after sunset unless something is important.There is no optical shop here to provide myopia glasses for him!

Not only that, but he often told Shisan not to overuse his eyes, didn't he listen to what he said?

Wang Ren walked towards the study angrily, opened the curtain and went in directly.

"I said don't bother me." Hearing the voice, Thirteen looked up unhappy, and was surprised when he saw Wang Ren's face, "Why are you here?"

"What? Since when, I can't come here anymore?" Wang Ren asked back.

"No, it's just...you rarely come to me so late." Thirteenth Master put down the letter in his hand.Generally, if Wang Ren wanted to come and live, he would have already come during the day.

"What?" Wang Ren picked up the letter and swept it from beginning to end, "Tongjia Longkodo? I know him. The admiral of the nine-door infantry patrols the commander of the fifth battalion, and controls the guards and access control of the capital. He wrote to you do what?"

"Surrender." The Thirteenth Master pulled him into his arms and said with a smile, "I was also surprised when I first saw it." This is a military officer who holds the right to mobilize the guards in the capital, and has real power in his hands.However, a person whom all elder brothers wanted to win over actually surrendered to him, the prince who had been rejected by his father?What's more, his family are all supportive eighth princes.

Wang Ren moved his body to make himself sit more comfortably. There was no other way. There was only one chair in the study.

"I know him." Wang Ren recalled, "I remember that his father Tong Guowei and his cousin Elundai are both from the eighth elder brother. Because the eighth elder brother was reprimanded some time ago, they also settled down for a while. "

"Father's family supports the eighth elder brother, but he supports you and the fourth master in a different way." Wang Ren said, "Sincerely? A trap?"

"Haven't you seen him? Can't you guess whether it's reliable or not?" The Thirteenth Lord put his head on Wang Ren's shoulder and said in a low voice.

"I have. He is a very ambitious person. He is treacherous, cunning, greedy and never satisfied." Wang Ren said, "But he is also smart and has a long-term vision."

"It's really hard to judge." Thirteenth Master said, thinking for a while and gathered the letter into a ball.

"Ignore it?" Wang Ren asked.

"Don't worry about it for the time being. The prince is back. Now is not the time for us to act. If he is sincere, he is smart enough. He will wait until I plan to contact him." Thirteenth Master said nonchalantly.

"But I'm still curious, why did he come to you instead of fourth master?" Wang Ren said.

"Perhaps... because of Suo'etu?" The Thirteenth Master laughed, "Longkodo has an uncle, that is Orondai's biological father, who fought against Geerdan with his father more than ten years ago die."

Wang Ren nodded: "What does this have to do with Suo'etu? Speaking of Suo'etu...sounds familiar, who is it?"

Thirteen laughed: "You really shouldn't remember that Suo'etu was no longer there when you became an official. But Suo'etu's death has nothing to do with you."

Wang Ren was even more at a loss. He didn't remember that he had come into contact with Suo'etu, let alone handled any cases related to him.

"Remember when we first met?" Shisan asked.

Wang Ren nodded: "Remember, I will tell your fortune."

"No, earlier than that." Thirteenth said, "You were very young when you were a boy in his teens. You dared to set up a fortune-telling stall outside without a servant. At that time, Father I was worrying about one thing, and he didn't know whether to do it, so he took me, several other elder brothers, and ministers out to the countryside for fun, but I met you when we were in the capital. You said to the father, "according to the law 'After saying that, he really made up his mind. Suo'etu must be investigated."

Wang Ren thought about it for a long time, and then he dug out that memory from the depths of his memory.

"The dignified first-class minister of state affairs and a scholar of the Baohe Palace died in the clan's residence." The Thirteenth Lord seemed to dislike that Suo'etu very much, and there was a sense of gloating when he said this sentence.

Wang Ren: ...

"Suo'etu is the prince's right-hand man, and since Suo'etu's death, the relationship between the prince and the emperor has not been as harmonious as before." The thirteenth master smiled, "The prince has tried very hard to keep Suo'etu. Tu, the father also hesitated. But he changed his mind after going back, the prince always thought it was the elder brother who said something in front of the father."

The real culprit Wang Ren: ==

At this time, what should he say.

"You don't need this kind of expression." Thirteen said, "Even if you didn't say that at that time, father couldn't stand Suo'etu for a long time, he was too unscrupulous. You just pushed the time forward."

Wang Ren: Hehe.

"What's the relationship between Suo'etu and Longkodo's uncle?" Wang Ren was still puzzled.

"Longkodo's uncle was named Tong Guogang, and he died in the battle with Galdan." Thirteenth said, "At that time, Suo'etu was also in that battle. One of the two generals died, but the war ended Victory. Tong Guogang only got a false name after death, and it was Suo'etu who really won everything."

"Just because of this?"

"The army led by Suo'etu suffered little losses, and the army led by Tong Guogang was almost wiped out." Thirteenth said, "However, there are no omissions or suspicious places in the memorial of the battle situation in the table above by Suo'etu. Galdan's troops The troops chasing Tong Guogang fought desperately, it looked like... bad luck."

"So I suspect that Suo'etu designed Tong Guogang's troops to act as bait." Wang Ren nodded knowingly.

"But Long Kedo's family should hate the prince's party." Wang Ren was puzzled again.

"Yes, so I can understand that they support myna." Thirteen smiled, "Even though Longkodo is the fourth brother's mother's family. On the surface, the fourth brother is now on the side of the prince."

Wang Ren nodded.During the Kangxi period, the concubines in the harem did not raise their own children except the queen, so the fourth master was not close to his biological mother at all.Not to mention the fourteenth elder brother, although they are brothers, the relationship between the two is really worse than enemies.

Wang Ren stared suspiciously at the pile of letter paper on the table, and said softly, "Maybe you can believe it."

Thirteen buried his head on Wang Ren's shoulder and let out an inexplicable snort.

"Here, interests are always more important than blood relationship. This Longkodo...is not someone who would care about such things." Wang Ren said softly.And he didn't write a letter to the prince, not to the fourth master, but to the thirteenth.Must have found something.After the prince is deposed again, they can really move.But for now, let the eighth elder brother and the prince fight first.

The centipede is dead but not stiff. The eighth elder brother was only imprisoned once. It is impossible to truly defeat him without completely smashing his hopes.

Wang Ren calculated in his mind.Nine sons seize the heir apparent, only the elder brother has just quit.The third child, the eighth child and the prince are all still there.Now there is another fourteenth elder brother who has grown up, although he does not have any power yet.Among these people, he is most at ease with the third elder brother, and the most worried is the fourteenth elder brother.The plan is in progress, I am afraid that the fourteenth elder brother will become the biggest variable.For the sake of Thirteen, he had to do everything possible.

"We are worthy." Thirteen said in a low voice, "Let's go to the bed in the back room."

"Huh?" Wang Ren's heart tightened, "Well... tonight...///A///"

"You seem to be fat, and my legs are a little numb." Thirteen raised his head and said.

Wang Ren, who often goes out in a sedan chair and works indoors: ...

You fucking get locked up! = dish = convex

"My man! Long! Yes! Muscle!" Wang Ren sat down hard for a few times, then got up and lifted the curtain to go to the back room.

Thirteen, whose legs are sore from the pressure: QAQ

Where are the soft muscles?

If he is fat, he will not be afraid of being fat, and he will not dislike it.

Prince's mansion.

The prince has been imprisoned for almost a year, and was deposed a year ago because of the quarrel with Kangxi over the death of his eighteenth elder brother.Years later, he was given the position of prince again by Kangxi.But now he is very different from before.The prince in the past was high-spirited, arrogant in speech and actions, and defiant because of Kangxi's favor.But now, he restrained all his vigor and spoke cautiously and in a low-key manner.The prince has also deeply realized that his father's care and love for him for decades is actually still behind the throne.His arrogance is the arrogance of a prince in the eyes of his loving father, but it is arrogance in the eyes of his suspicious father.The prince faced the burning candle alone, watching the melted candle flow down, lost in thought.

Today, he met a veteran, a former veteran.He used to be a first-rank minister in the court, but because the crown prince was abolished, many officials in the court who had good friends with the crown prince were implicated and had no good end, so he resigned directly while he was getting old.Because his hometown is in the capital, he also stayed for the elderly.I thought that a deposed prince would have no chance to stand up again, but who would have thought that in just one year, the second prince would be established as the prince again.What's more, the eldest elder brother, the crown prince's deadly enemy, was devastated and couldn't stand up anymore.

But he has resigned.

However, his son is still serving in the court, in the Ministry of War.Because of his own influence, his son has always been obsessed with the second prince, and this time he happily told himself the news at home, wanting to strongly support the prince.The eldest elder brother was banned, and the eighth elder brother and others were also scolded.The other elder brothers are nothing to worry about. Apart from being the crown prince's, is there any other possibility in this world?

In history, this is the easiest way to reach the sky in one step from the dragon's work.The mind of this old official who resigned from office has also come alive. He used to be a first-rank official with a high position and authority.If it wasn't for avoiding...

【Text·Continued】

If it wasn't for avoiding being harmed, how could it be possible to give up the rights in hand.The descendants of his family are not as capable as him, and they are still a fourth-rank official when they are 40 or 24 years old. It is not like Wang Ren, who is only [-] or [-] now, and he is already in charge of Dali Temple alone, and he is a close minister of the emperor.If it goes on like this, his family will eventually come to an end just like the historians and Jia's.

What is the real reason for the decline of the Jia family and the Shi family?Put profit?Pick up ashes?Take power?neither.

The decline of the two families was due to Jia Yuanchun's death, Wang Ziteng's resignation, and Wang Ren's indifference to them.There was no capable person or backer in their family, so they collapsed.

His family didn't want to end up like this, and he wanted to fight again.
