Quickly pass through and refuse to be cannon fodder

Jing Lie helped Yuan Jing take inventory of the current family property, and they left the things the old lady sent them alone in a warehouse.

Both of them are not optimistic about the future of Nabo Mansion. In the future, Nabo Mansion will fall, and Yuan Jing is not willing to use his own money to fill the hole, so let's keep the things the old lady gave, and throw them to them when the time comes. No, lest others say that he is unfilial.

"Now there are three Zhuangzi, five shops, and a three-entry house. The calligraphy, painting and antique jewelry are not counted, and the cash is 20 taels."

Yuan Jing held his face and said, "That means I got rich all of a sudden? Come, come, those who reward you, follow me, and have meat to eat." As he spoke, he grabbed a stack of bank notes and stuffed them into Jing Lie's arms.

Jing Lie breathed out with his nose, pressed the little bastard on the bed and bullied him, to see how he was still pissed off, and finally when Li Yan and the others came to see him, Yuan Jing lay on the bed and quietly massaged his little bastard. waist.

Now his body is "weak", so he can't go to the uncle's house to pay respects to the old lady, no one will talk about it, so Yuan Jing can live a life of raising pigs in Zeng's house with peace of mind, is it true? Raising himself like a piglet, Li Yan and the others didn't even bother to urge him anymore. Seeing that Yuan Jing wanted to write a manuscript with a pen, he rushed over and snatched the pen away. brain.

The imperial doctor said that now his body is hindering his lifespan. No matter how beautiful Huang Liangmeng is, does it matter if he has a brother's body?

Yuan Jing felt that he had cheated himself when he was acting.

The enthusiasm about Master Zeng Sishao and Uncle Yongyi's mansion in the capital gradually subsided, and Yuan Jing also slowly adjusted his pulse according to the progress of the imperial doctor, so that his body gradually improved. Of course, this improvement is not as normal. Compared with others, even if he can recover to the point of being alive and kicking in the future, he will still be a "sick man" who will not live long in the eyes of others.

After the imperial doctor's treatment came to an end, the toxins in the four young masters' bodies were basically cleared up, and Yuan Jing was allowed to pick up a pen and take a walk in the yard. Yuan Jing stood in the yard and looked at the sky above his head. He said in his heart that it was too difficult for him, being watched by Song Shi and the others during the day, and being oppressed by Jing Lie at night, what kind of life is he living.

Because he was never allowed to start writing, Huang Liangmeng's third volume was nowhere in sight. Xia Zhou became a celebrity in the capital. Among the people he met, seven or eight out of ten urged him to ask him what the third volume was about. It's time to come out. Xia Zhou has experienced the troubles of being a celebrity. What was Xia Zhou worth in the eyes of others before?But now everyone is looking at him with eager eyes, and they are trying their best to dig Si Yao away from him.

Shun Wang and Xiang Cheng also expressed their curiosity. According to Si Yao's writing speed, the third volume of Huang Liangmeng should have come out long ago. Why is it so late this time and there is no shadow yet?

"If there is something strange, it must be that Fourth Young Master Zeng's body has collapsed and he needs to rest in the house..." King Shun suddenly got stuck at this point, looked up at Xiang Cheng, and said in disbelief, "You can't find out The Si Yao who saw the shadow, couldn't it be Zeng Si Shao?"

Xiang Cheng almost couldn't help digging his ears: "My lord, you're not joking, right? Fourth Master Zeng's experience over the past ten years is very simple. Where did he learn those things?"

Although King Shun is in the capital, he can remotely control the affairs of the fief. He asked his subordinates to implement the measures written in Huangliangmeng on his fief. Come to think of it, Siyao who wrote Huangliangmeng must be a wise man with a lot of experience and traveled to many places, and he must be not young, at least four or fifty years old, to have such a wealth of knowledge.

But what about Zeng Yuanjing?He grew up in the backyard of the Bo mansion for more than ten years. Even when he left the Bo mansion, he ate, drank and had fun with Li Yan and his friends. He had never done anything serious, and he had never left the capital. How did he know the weather? Changes, water conservancy surveys, these people's livelihood knowledge.

No wonder they were so skeptical.

But when Yuan Jing finally drove out the third volume of Huang Liangmeng, Xia Zhou went to Zeng Zhai to pick up the manuscript and send it to the workshop for printing. Shun Wang and Xiang Cheng looked at each other, and sent someone who was watching Xia Zhou back to report the situation and told them one thing The fact that can no longer be denied is that the Huang Liang Meng was indeed created by Zeng Si Shao.

It was because he had a serious illness before and needed to be bedridden to recuperate, so he couldn't catch up with the draft, which led to Huang Liangmeng's third volume not showing up for a long time.

It took King Shun a long time to come back to his senses, and he blinked at Xiang Cheng: "So, we were all fooled by a 17-year-old boy? He's not really stupid, but just pretending to be stupid, right? It's also because Fourth Young Master Zeng played it on purpose, just to let the world know about the Zeng family's affairs, so that he can move out of the mansion openly, so that people can't say anything bad about him?"

Xiang Cheng had a toothache and felt that he had been slapped in the face: "If that's the case, then Fourth Young Master Zeng is hiding too much. Then he ran after that Xie before, did he just pretend?"

Shun Wang also had a toothache, and couldn't figure out what was going on in this 17-year-old boy's head.

At the end of the year, Yuan Jing's body recovered enough to go out to play, but Li Yan and the three resolutely refused to let him go out. It was cold outside, what if Yuan Jing fell down from freezing again?He is now a baby who needs everyone's protection.

What can Yuan Jing do?I can only go out to have fun at night when there is no one else.

The sick young master Zeng Sishao, who hadn't shown his face for a long time, was rarely mentioned by others, and even Uncle Yongyi's mansion gradually became depressed, and he hadn't shown his presence in the capital for a long time. A lot of officials were involved in a corruption case, and there was a new excitement to watch, not to mention that few people paid attention to Fourth Young Master Zeng.

On the contrary, the people in the palace came twice, they were all running errands for the old emperor, and rewarded Yuan Jing with some things. From the outsiders' point of view, this is the performance of the holy master Zeng Sishao, and those princes also followed suit and gave some things. come over.

Yuan Jing asked Songshi to pack some presents, and it was the end of the year, so he had to go to Uncle Yongyi's house to show his face. He could ignore his uncle and aunt, but the old lady had to be filial, so he had to make this trip.

"Do you want me to go there with you?" Jing Lie helped clean up together.

Yuan Jing shook his sleeves and laughed: "What capacity did you go over there? But don't make the old lady so angry that she becomes seriously ill again, that's my fault. I'll come back after giving gifts, and I won't stay there for long Yes, to save those people from embarrassing me, anyway, I don't owe them anything."

"Okay, I'll drive the car for you, and I'll wait for you in the car."

Jing Lie acted as a coachman for Yuan Jing, sent him to the gate of the current uncle's mansion, watched him go in, and then waited in the carriage.

Although several months have passed, those things in the uncle's mansion have been spread all over the capital. How could the servants in the uncle's mansion not know about it, so seeing the fourth young master coming over now, they are being polite and not daring to be careless .

The old lady's body has been recuperated for several months, and the symptoms of hemiplegia have also been relieved a lot. Hearing that the fourth young master came back to visit the old lady, she hurriedly asked someone to take care of the fourth young master, and also asked someone to invite uncle and madam to return to the old lady. There are other young masters and young ladies.

Just as Yuan Jing walked to the door, he heard these orders and stopped him aloud: "Don't bother the old lady, I'll come and see the old lady, and I'll leave after a while."

The excited old lady froze for a moment, and looked up at the grandson. Yuan Jing used to pretend to be a fool in front of her, but now he doesn't want to. The eyes that are clear in black and white but with indifference and no trace of nostalgia give the old man The wife poured cold water on it.

The old lady waved her hand to save people from calling.

Yuan Jing sat at the head of the old lady, picked up the tea bowl and drank tea by himself, without saying a word, the reason why he came to give gifts to visit the old lady was just because of his status, it didn't mean that he was really willing to be a loving grandparent with the old lady Well, he did these things, in the final analysis, he did them for others to see, and the old lady had nothing to do with him for a copper coin.

Nanny Lin led her servants to guard outside, and let the old lady and the fourth young master talk alone.

The old lady couldn't hold back, and asked with a trembling voice: "Yuanjing, do you blame grandma and me? It was grandma who was sorry for you and made your second uncle and aunt make big mistakes. Are you still in good health? "

"I can't die," Yuan Jing put down his tea bowl, and said very bluntly, "Thanks to my second uncle who brought me into the palace that day, I just got poisoned because I drank a few glasses of wine, and because I was in the palace, there was an imperial guard. The doctor personally detoxified me for recuperation, and then I recovered, or I might die quietly in some corner someday."

The old lady was just about to pick up the tea bowl, but when she heard this, her hands trembled and the tea bowls rattled, so she had to put the tea bowl back on the table, and wiped the corners of her eyes: "It's not your fault, it's your fault." , It was your second uncle and aunt who did something wrong, and if you can come back to visit grandma, grandma will be very happy, and as long as you are well in the future, grandma will be relieved."

Yuan Jing found it strange and boring. The more he knew about the past, the more he could guess what the old lady was thinking. She had complicated feelings for her grandson, and wanted to keep the only blood left by her eldest son. But on the other hand, because his face looks so much like his biological mother, and his biological mother is the old lady's least favorite, he might blame his biological mother for the death of his eldest son and grandson, so he looks very much like his biological mother Zeng Yuanjing Of course, it didn't do well for the old lady, so he was left to fend for himself in the backyard.

Yuan Jing didn't believe that the old lady couldn't understand Song's intentions, she just thought that it was enough for people to live well, and felt that as long as the grandson lived well, he could be worthy of the eldest son.

And when it came time to sacrifice Zeng Yuanjing, this indifferent grandson was not that important compared to the future of the uncle's house, so knowing Zeng Kang's intentions in bringing him into the palace, the old lady still didn't make a move in the end Blocked him and watched him enter the palace.

Now that he has made a choice, why is he acting so hypocritical now, and Yuan Jing is not willing to act like a grandparent with her.
