[Red House] How to escape from a broken ship

Jia Min never told Shi Taijun about his illness before. Time has passed, and he wrote it down when he wrote a letter years ago.Who knew that Shi Taijun didn't tell himself about such a big thing about his daughter, so he was almost in a hurry, so he hurriedly sent Jia Lian to go on the road after the year, and he had to see if Jia Min was all right. famous doctor.

Now that he saw it with his own eyes, Jia Lian naturally understood that his aunt was very good.In the evening, he was alone in the guest room, thinking carefully about the four aunts of the older generation, and now this real aunt really had the best life.Back then, the old lady put a lot of effort into choosing a son-in-law for her own daughter, but now she doesn't know what will happen to the next generation.

Jia Lian is a flirtatious seed, and he never fails every night, but now that he is staying at a relative's house, he... has no choice but to concentrate on serious business.He remembered that before he left, his uncle and second master Jia Zheng only told him to say hello to his uncle and learned so much; but the old lady gave him a box with a letter inside.

Although it must be a private conversation between the two mothers, Jia Lian still felt that the old lady's prudent exhortation must be handed over to the aunt, and there must be something inside.What could it be?He racked his brains and finally got tired of thinking, and fell asleep unconsciously.

The couple in the main courtyard were talking privately, "Mother wrote, the emperor is really going to chase after the abolished prince." Jia Min handed the letter to Lin Hai, "There are rumors in the government and the public that the emperor intends to chase after the concubine. Renhong is Prince Yizhong, commoner Wen is Prince Lizhong, commoner Kai is Prince Chengzhong, and there is no posthumous title."

Lin Hai looked at the letter in his hand and smiled helplessly: "Something must have happened in the court, righteousness, reason, sincerity, plus the word loyalty, to the three princes, I really don't know if it is chasing the seal or warning... Sigh .”

"My mother is also worried. She said that some families in Beijing are now alive." Jia Min said: "Someone even mentioned the eldest son of the common man Hong and the emperor's eldest grandson, Situ Sheng. During the Chinese New Year, the emperor released the child. Come out and become king too."

"Well, Prince Shunping. Wait, someone mentioned the grandson of the emperor?" Lin Hai quickly said: "What the mother-in-law means, I'm afraid someone is messing with the eldest grandson of the emperor. Hehe, really," he didn't say anything later, but Jia Min understood what Lin Hai meant, those people were really old birthday stars who hanged themselves and were tired of their jobs.

Lin Hai handed the letter to Jia Min, and Jia Min burned the letter with his own hands, and then asked someone to come in to collect the ashes.After the servants cleaned up and left, Jia Min saw that Lin Hai was still frowning, she pulled her husband back to the couch, and asked in a low voice: "Master thinks, if His Majesty really establishes a reserve, who is the most hopeful now. "

"..." Lin Hai gritted his teeth: "Although it is said that since ancient times, heirs have been established, but heirs have been established, but in the final analysis, it still depends on the Sacred Heart. Looking through the history books, under the etiquette, in fact, the majority is love. If we follow the etiquette , naturally it is the emperor's third son Yan Wang Situ Chan, but the madam knows what Yan Wang does."

Jia Min nodded: "Yes, didn't the rumors about Li Chu scare him into becoming a monk? In my opinion, the emperor may not think highly of him. Besides, although King Yan's biological mother is the granddaughter of Taizong's chief minister, her family is in decline. , she is still a harem maid accompanied by the princess, and she was bestowed by the queen mother in her early years, so she is not very sacred."

These inside stories are not secrets among the nobles. Jia Min, as the daughter of Shaobao Rongguo, who assisted the abolished prince back then, naturally knows it well.

"That's right," Lin Hai sighed, "So, next is the fourth son of the emperor, Qi Wang Peng Zu. It is said that when he was born, Concubine De dreamed of Emperor Taizong. When the Queen Mother was alive, she loved him very much."

Concubine De is the granddaughter of Emperor Taizong, the niece of the Empress Dowager, the daughter of Marquis Gu of Boling, and King Qi is the grandson of Gu.

Jia Min frowned: "If Peng Zu was to be established, I'm afraid it would have been established long ago."

Many people also understand the inside story here, the emperor does not want the Gu family to be a queen mother again, so even though there are always voices saying "Qi Wang is quite wise", no one dares to speak out in the letter.In terms of emotion and reason, he is just one of the emperor's concubine sons with an older brother.

Going down, Lin Hai didn't know much about it, so he said: "Among the remaining princes, the sixth prince is the mother and younger brother of the common people, who was adopted to the emperor's younger brother, King Situ of Jin; the seventh prince is the noble concubine Su Shi. It comes out, but I don't know exactly how he is. It is said that he is quite popular with the emperor; the eighth prince and the seventh prince have the same mother, but died young; His biological mother, Concubine Shu, is the older sister of Concubine Han Wangzheng."

Lin Hai calculated the emperor's sons, and finally looked at Jia Min in blank dismay. At least in the limited information that their husband and wife could get, among the princes were those whose mothers were powerful, some who were well-connected in the clan, and some whose mothers were extremely favored by the emperor. .But no prince was particularly favored by the emperor, even the seventh prince, because of his mother's noble concubine, did not make an exception to confer the title early.

"According to what the master said, we can only take one step at a time, and," Jia Min smiled, "Speaking of which, I'm afraid the bosses in the court are more anxious."

That's right, "That's right, the county magistrate might as well take care of it now." Lin Hai thought that he was just worrying blindly, if the emperor didn't set up a reserve for a day, wouldn't he be able to rest in peace?If so, I'm afraid he will scare himself to death.

Jia Lian stayed in Yangzhou for two months, and then returned to Beijing with the entrustment of his uncle and aunt and gifts for the elders and relatives in Beijing. When he returned to Beijing, Jia Yan had already passed the college examination.Jia Boheng, really admitted to the linsheng, the No.6 scholar.

Xu Zhi was the first, and Sun Zhong came in third. Before Jia Lian returned to Beijing, he also participated in the celebration family banquet held by the elders for the three of them.Xu Zhi was already a junior, everyone at the banquet congratulated him, and Jia Yan said: "I can't say, brother Zhengxing can go one step further and win six poems!" Xu Zhi dared not.

Although Jia Lian did not take the scientific examination all the way, he also socialized with famous princes in Beijing, and the three young people present, needless to say, Jia Yan, the Sun brothers were also called the sons of eunuchs.Although Xu Zhi was the first scholar in his family, he traveled all over the country with his master Liang Ziyuan, and it was also a result of experience.

So there was no surprise when the young people got together, and they talked about the characteristics of the capital from the scenery of Yangzhou. Waiting for good news from everyone!"

Everyone toasted, and got drunk.

Happy to be happy, but Lin Hai still brought Jia Yan over and warned him: "Being a scholar is just the first step in career development. You are also lucky. In the first year of the imperial examination, the college examination and the township examination are taken consecutively. There is no need to waste time. The Xuezheng has also been decided, this is a topic he has written before, and his own favorite articles back then, you have to read more thoroughly."

"Don't worry, uncle, nephew understands!" Jia Yan took the manuscript and materials with full confidence. It was less than four months before the Jinling Township Examination. Discuss knowledge.

At the end of July, the three of them set off for Jinling to take the provincial exam. Lin Hai and his wife prepared the exam items for the three juniors regardless of their wealth.Lin Hai and Sun Gao told them to pay attention to what they eat and drink when they go out, and be careful.

Zhao and Jia Min each took their daughters to Qiling Temple to burn incense and pray for their son and nephew. Daiyu was finally able to come to Qiling Temple.But she felt a little regretful, it would be great if both her father and brother Ah Yan were there.

The two families burned incense, and the female relatives rarely had time to go out, so naturally they wanted to relax.Daiyu and Sun Concubine walked around surrounded by mothers and maidservants. This place has already been surrounded by two factions, so the girls can feel more at ease.

And Mrs. Zhao was complaining to Jia Min, saying how weird her second son was, and even more stubborn than his elder brother.Jia Min comforted her and said, "Siblings don't have to worry. I think Brother Zhao has a tough character. Youdao is a stubborn child who never fails. This is also a good thing. If you are worried about your child's disadvantages, just teach him slowly."

They were talking, when there was a commotion from the west, Daiyu's grandmother, Wang Momo, came over and told, "Ma'am, there is a monk who insists on coming in, crazily saying that he has something important to say to Madam!"

Crazy monk!

Jia Min got up suddenly, Zhao Shi was startled, and hurriedly said: "What's wrong with sister-in-law, what's the problem, do you want to call the nursing home!"

"No need," Jia Min said angrily, "Your siblings don't know anything." So she told the story that after Daiyu was born, a scarlet monk wanted to take Daiyu to become a monk. He was about to convert other people's children to become a monk, and he didn't think he was a decent monk at the time! But later, this person disappeared without a trace, and he dared to come here today!"

Mrs. Zhao also became angry: "There are other things like this, the only child is not allowed to become a monk, unless..." Unless the parents are not there, Mrs. Zhao turned upside down, "Isn't this a curse!"

Jia Min said coldly: "Since he is coming, let him come!"

The scarlet-headed monk was not much different from before, with his dirty robes and rosary beads hanging around his neck. When he saw Jia Min, the first Buddha shouted: Amitabha!Ma'am, how can you let Ling Ai meet outsiders?

"Listen to what the great monk said, my daughter must be stuck at home for the rest of her life?" Jia Min sneered: "It's difficult for a woman to be a woman. When I was young, I could see more people and gain some knowledge. According to you, my daughter , why don't you go out for the rest of your life!"

The monk who was choked back when he opened his mouth smiled wryly: "Madam, this is a matter of life."

Jia Min jumped at the case: "How dare you threaten my woman's life!"

"No, no," the scarlet-headed monk waved his hands again and again: "Absolutely not. The old monk is talking about his wife's nephew. Are you disregarding the child's life?"

Jia Min is about to go mad with anger, what does this mean, oh, if Brother Yan and my brother and sister Daiyu get along well, the child will die?What do you take my daughter for!Her hands trembled in anger. Although Zhao Shi didn't think about it that deeply, she also felt that the monk's tossing and turning was a threat to others?

"Come here, call the nursing home, and drag this crazy monk to me! Send it to Yangzhou Mansion to ask the master to know!" Mrs. Zhao spoke, and Jia Min waved her hand, and the Zhao and Lin families rushed up. Who knew? The scarlet monk ran away and shouted: "Human life is at stake, my wife will know in the future!"

At the same time, Jia Yan, who had just arrived in Jinling, met an old Taoist priest.
