[Red Mansion] Sir, I'm a rough man

When it snowed all night, when the door was opened in the morning, the snow-white eyes almost dazzled people's eyes.

Zhou Kai and other colleagues from the guard station went to the mansion early in the morning, and everyone had a good day.

Everyone is in a good mood. To be honest, there are many chances to be rewarded by guarding the emperor. The prince is born today, the queen’s birthday tomorrow, and the Lantern Festival later... After all, as long as there is a festive event, the emperor or empress, the overlord , Empress Dowager, a "reward" word, they are indispensable, and even the closest eunuchs around the emperor may not be much more than them.

Serving in the palace at the same time, the status of a bodyguard is as high as one can raise, and the status of a eunuch is as low as one can suppress - the Taiyi ancestor has training, and the highest eunuch rank cannot exceed the fifth rank.

It’s just that as a bodyguard, it’s easy to get rewards, but hard to make meritorious deeds. Most of them kill a few more prey when hunting with the emperor. It’s not a glorious achievement to say it out, but Jia Wan’s “assassination” like a joke this time is really Let the big guys get the emperor's personal praise, which is enough for them to be proud for a while.

When young people are together, a few bottles of beer can go crazy all night, not to mention that there are plums, snow, bows, horses, wine, and meat in Ningguo Mansion?Naturally, I came here with excitement and returned with exhaustion.

On the fourth day, Jiawan produced a "demo" of the custom-made wheelchair. He tried it himself and found that the craftsmen of this era are really good, and the things they make are even better than he imagined.

Jia Wan asked the blacksmith, who was about the same size as Zhao Yi, to go up and try it out. After making a few minor adjustments, he ordered them to replace it with good pear blossom wood, and to make a new one with a leather mattress.

The item was available the next day, and Jia Wanling sent it to Zhao Yi's mansion in April. When he came back, April's expression was very disturbed: "His Royal Highness, the eldest son, has always had a gloomy face. He looks very scary, and the little one dare not stay longer." , hastily said how to use it and left..."

Jia Wan didn't take it seriously at all: that person, 360 days a year, has a gloomy face for 360 days, and he would be scary if he suddenly laughed.

After this rest, Jia Wan's shift should be transferred to night duty.

For guards and vanguard battalions outside the shift, staying on duty at night is a hard job. They should patrol and stand guard. Mosquitoes bite in summer and snow and wind blow in winter, but for the inner shift, it is much more comfortable than during the day.

As soon as the night came, they would leave the harem and stay in the special guard room outside, sitting and warming up by the fire, chatting, and even taking a nap. If there was an emergency, someone would come to call, and if there was no emergency, wait Two hours is enough, and one day's salary will be paid.

There has been heavy snowfall these days, no matter how impatient Jia Zheng and others are, the construction of the garden has to be stopped. Jia Lian, Lai Da and others took this opportunity to sort out the accounts. As well as the budget, a "phased report" was made to Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang, etc. Jia Wan, as the main sponsor of the garden and the owner of the Ningguo Mansion, was naturally asked to attend.

Among the family members, Jia Zheng is not used to common affairs, Jia Amnesty only lies at home, and Jia Wan just donates money to avoid disasters, so he doesn't take much care of things, but now he listens to how much money is in one item, and how much in that item. How much money, inevitably a little startled.

"Brother Qiang is currently in the south of the Yangtze River, led by Brother Wan's side Yuyan to buy utensils. He wrote back a few days ago, saying that he has already done it, and he will return after the next year. I thought that since he is here, there is no need to do another Send someone to write a letter to entrust him with the job of buying actors, and when the purchase is complete, it will be cheaper to ship it back... just use the 3 taels saved by the Zhen family.

"Twelve little nuns, little Taoist nuns, have arrived a few days ago. They have been taught by decent people to recite Buddhist scriptures. Taoist robes and monk robes are already being made. This item cost a total of 7000 taels of silver..."

Jia Wan frowned. He had followed Lin Ruhai to many places over the years. He was not the kid who didn't even know how much candied haws sold for. Within the tolerance range, this is the only item that is too absurd.

Twelve little opera singers, plus 3 taels of musical instruments, is reasonable. After all, those little opera singers not only have to be outstanding in appearance and talent, but also have to play children to practice basic skills. It is not easy to raise one...the price is high Some are also normal.

However, the little nuns and Taoist nuns who can’t even read scriptures are just ordinary girls with beautiful features. They are worth 20 taels of silver, and they add up to 500 taels of silver. How did the 7000 taels be spent?

Don't say anything about faith, the price can't be compared with secular people - those people have sold little girls for money, what kind of monks are they?They're just human traffickers in cassocks.

Interrupted: "Brother Lian, who is responsible for this?"

Although he was prepared to give up his wealth to avoid disaster, he was not prepared to be taken advantage of so much.

Jia Lian was a little embarrassed, and glanced behind Jia Wan.

Jia Wan followed his gaze and turned back, and saw Jia Rong who was sweating on his forehead in winter.

Seeing Jia Wan looking back at him, Jia Rong knelt down with a thud, and howled, "Second Uncle Mingjian, my nephew has been wronged. It is my nephew's responsibility to buy nuns and Taoist nuns, but my nephew swears to God." , never greedy for a penny in it!"

Seeing him kneeling so neatly, and the uneasiness on his face didn't look fake, Jia Lian and the others were taken aback: Although the title of Ningguo Mansion fell to Jia Wan, he was too young after all, and these days Since then, Jia Rong has always been involved in such a big matter as the repair of the garden. They only treat Jia Wan as Jia Amnesty, and they only occupy the title and don't care about it. Now it seems that this is not the case at all.

Jia Wan took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and said calmly, "Get up first, and then talk about it slowly when you get back home."

Then he said to Jia She and Jia Zheng, "You two uncles, I will give you an explanation for this matter later...Second brother Lian, go ahead!"

If he didn't deal with it immediately, he didn't know how to ask Jia Lian to intercede, so he had to look at Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng. After getting their signal, he continued talking, calculating the next furnishings, tents, antiques, cranes and elks. Wait, how much silver is still needed.

Just as he was talking, Lin Zixiao suddenly entered the door with sweat on his forehead, and said, "My lord, someone is coming from the palace!"

Several people were shocked, hurriedly said please, there was a man dressed as an eunuch lifted the curtain and entered the door by himself, his expression was very anxious, Mrs. Wang hurriedly said: "But what is the imperial concubine's intention?"

As if he had never heard of it, the eunuch came straight to Jia Wan, and said, "Master Jia, you are really here, so it's easy for our family to find!"

Jia Wan said in amazement: "Prince Wang? What's the matter?"

He is the background wall, what will happen to him?

The prince said: "The emperor asked this morning, why is the guard Jia not here?"

The co-author came to find his house just for such a casual sentence?Jia Wan was speechless, and said: "My lord, I should be on duty in the palace tonight, and I won't be on duty during the day."

He is now on the night shift, not the day shift!

Wang Gonggong glanced at the people around him, hesitated to speak, stomped his feet, pulled him away, and said: "Since the emperor asked, it doesn't matter whether you are on duty or not, you hurry up and follow me!"

Jia Wan knew that this man could not be the master, and it was useless to say anything to him, so he had to complain to Jia Zheng and others, put on big clothes, and went out with him.

The people in the rest of the room looked at each other with complicated expressions, and even the excitement of building the provincial garden had cooled down a lot.

After Jia Wan entered the palace, he still went to the guards to change his clothes first. The prince saw that he was holding a saber in his hand, and hurriedly said, "Isn't the guard Jia good at wielding guns? Why don't you take a gun!"

With great difficulty, he dragged the lever over.

Seeing how hard he was procrastinating, Jia Wan didn't explain to him what weaving was or was not. He threw the knife and took the pistol.

Holding a gun is better than holding a knife. Holding a knife has to be held hard all the time, and the gun is stuck on the ground, and you can be lazy and rest on it for a while.

After changing the equipment, Wang Gonggong urged him to go out quickly. The more Jia Wan looked at it, the more he felt that this posture was wrong, and asked: "Wang Gonggong, what is the matter, you should tell me, so that I can be prepared. Don't wait until the time comes." It's bad, isn't it?"

Only then did Wang Gonggong say: "Actually, it's not a big deal. Isn't it the Chinese New Year? The new Shanyu of the Xiongnu sent Zuo Xianwang to Beijing to congratulate him, and His Majesty hosted a banquet in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Those foreign savages, every time On any occasion, I always send the warriors of the tribe to fight with my masters.

"Earlier, the emperor asked such a question. Mr. Liu thought that he might be useful to Guard Jia later, so he asked our family to quickly find you."

He said sternly: "This is a rare opportunity. If you, Guard Jia, have the opportunity to appear on the stage, it will be a great achievement for us to make a big face for us!"

Jia Wan nodded. It turned out to be this matter. He and his colleagues had talked together before and said that it was rare for the Huns to send people again this year. Unfortunately, their team stayed overnight until the beginning of the new year. The great opportunity to make meritorious service is only Can helplessly miss it.

It's just that at this time, whichever class's guards are on duty, he will take action. There is no precedent for extra people, so why did they suddenly find him?

Wang Gonggong said again in a low voice: "When the old Shanyu used to compete, most of the martial arts competitions were done at the end, but this new Shanyu acts differently from the old Shanyu, and he doesn't know the way..."

Suddenly, Jia Wan secretly stuffed a bead to the prince, thanking him for his reminder.

At the gate of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, a little eunuch was looking around anxiously. He was overjoyed when he saw the two of them. He stepped forward and whispered something to the prince. The prince hurried into the hall. The little eunuch pulled Jia Wan aside and let him Stand in line with the other guards.

Compared with the past, today's "background walls" are painted in a different style. Although they are still standing upright, their ears are focused on listening to the movement of the hall, and the faces that should be expressionless are showing a few words. Very angry and aggrieved, but also a little eager to try.

In the hall, Emperor Qian's face sank like water, until Director Liu bent down and whispered something in his ear, he calmed down a little and nodded slightly.

Suddenly there was a beast-like growl from below, and Wei Xin, the former champion of military science and technology, was completely thrown out. He rolled on the ground several times before stopping, spewing out a mouthful of blood with a "poof", and couldn't stand up for a long while.

There was a dead silence below, and none of the civil and military officials dared to speak.

This is already the third game, and every game has been defeated.

Emperor Qian's eyes fell on the young King Zuo Xian who was closest to the dragon seat and wore exaggerated earrings.

Last year old Shanyu passed away suddenly, his younger brother beheaded all his sons and became Shanyu himself. This Zuoxian King is the son of the new Shanyu.

In the past, when the envoys of the old Shanyu came to Beijing, they would also bring a few masters to the field to compete, but it was enough to let Daqian know how good they were, and it would not make the scene too ugly.

But this new Shanyu... is not only a matter of face, I am afraid that the border will be difficult in the future!

In fact, this kind of competition is not fair to Dagan, because the master of Dagan is not in the court.

After all, the guards around the emperor are all meritorious children, loyalty is the first, and martial arts is second. Their martial arts are considered excellent in the court, but they are not considered top-notch in the whole cadre.

But those warriors on the prairie are all the bravest people in the tribe.

Emperor Qian raised his hand, clapped his hands lightly for a few times, and said: "You are indeed a great warrior, reward."

Until now, the Hall of Supreme Harmony, which was completely silent, started to move again. Several servants stepped forward and quietly lifted Wei Xin, who had fallen to the ground, out.

King Zuo Xian said in his unproficient Chinese: "The emperor's warriors are also very good. I don't know if there are still strong warriors. Dare to compete with our warriors?"

Even won three games in a row and still refused to give up!

An old official stood up angrily, Emperor Qian raised his hand to make him sit down, turned to Mr. Liu and said, "Someone call that bragging brat in."

Director Liu asked: "The emperor said, is it Jia Yizhi, Jia's guard?"

Emperor Qian nodded, and said: "Yes, it is him. Doesn't he always like to brag, saying that he has never lost when he was young? Let him come to see the real master today."

The prince at the side hurried out to call for someone, Manager Liu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you forgot that the former guard Jia was defeated by His Majesty, and it has been a few days since he said that."

Emperor Qian smiled and said, "I really forgot about this."

While talking and joking, the figure of a young man in black light armor appeared at the door, making people breathless.

The young man's figure is as tall and straight as a jade tree in an orchid garden, and his appearance is even more handsome. He walked so slowly, his steps are leisurely but vigorous, his whole person is like a picture scroll that has come to life, which is pleasing to the eye.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay: This kid, it's enough to keep him by your side to make him look good, but pulling it out to compete with others is too violent, isn't it?

It's only when the emperor has given up on himself, instead of trying his best to lose, it's better to act like he doesn't take this competition seriously and find a child to disrupt the situation.

Jia Wan half-kneeled and saluted: "The minister, Jia Wan, has seen His Majesty."

Emperor Qian nodded, and said succinctly: "These envoys from the Huns came from afar, and they want to see my great skills...you can compete with them!"

Jia Wan answered "Yes", turned around and looked at Zuo Xianwang, Zuo Xianwang ordered someone casually: "Chaganbala, you go."

Chaganbala stood up, tore off his shirt, and stood in the middle of the field.

Jia Wanrui is fifteen years old and not tall enough, but these prairie men are taller and more powerful than the other. This man named Chaganbala is more than two heads taller than Jia Wan. The two stood together , Just like adults bullying children, there is no comparison.

Jia Wan clasped his fists and said, "I don't know what this envoy wants to compete with me? A collection of classics and history, piano skills, calligraphy and painting, or poetry, songs, art of war and military strategy?"

Chaganbala didn't know whether he didn't understand Chinese, or he was confused by his question, and looked blankly at Zuo Xianwang.

King Zuo Xian snorted coldly, and said: "Is this guard Jia pretending to be confused? Here, the competition is of course martial arts."

Jia Wan was surprised and said: "King Zuo Xian didn't know that we are used to emphasizing civility over military affairs, and advocating civil governance? Even military officers like me are also studying military strategy, and martial arts are only part-time...how can Zuo Xianwang You came all the way from thousands of miles away to visit me, and instead of asking me what Dagan is good at, you want to compete with us in these final skills?"

Emperor Qian coughed dryly, and said with a smile: "You talk too much, so you can fight as soon as you are told, don't you understand that the host and the guest don't understand? They compare what they say to compare."

Jia Wan was stunned, and said: "I understand, the host can do as he pleases, and my envoys go to them to compare piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting."

"Guard Jia is wrong," said the old official who just stood up and sat down, stroking his beard, "When we go to the Xiongnu, the emphasis is on doing what the guest wants, and the competition is also about martial arts... After all, it's too bullying to compete with them in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. .”

As soon as this remark came out, all four people laughed, and the originally tense and gloomy atmosphere suddenly relaxed.

That's right, martial arts is nothing more than a final skill for us Dagan, but you Huns only know this, so what if you win?

Jia Wan was still serious, and suddenly said: "Thank you for your guidance, sir, I will not be taught."

Step back a little, put the gun aside, take off the helmet, and start removing the armor.

The old minister joked again: "Why is Guard Jia?"

Jia Wan said: "This envoy is going into battle shirtless, but if the last general wears armor...it's too bullying."

The sentence "too bullying" made everyone around laugh again.
