[Red House] How to escape from a broken ship

However, seeing the emperor and the noble concubine outside that day, they were really like ordinary couples.Would he be so "destroying human desire" to exclude the eldest son of his concubine?

Jia Yan thinks that this step can be achieved unless the emperor already has a candidate for the crown prince in his heart, but if it is an elderly prince, the emperor can directly chase after the queen, and then establish a crown prince. It will not be so laborious.What's more, in the past dynasties, most of the princes were established because of love. The emperor either liked his son or his grandson.

The grandson... Could it be the eldest grandson of the emperor!It seems reasonable to posthumously confer the title of Prince Yizhong and establish the eldest grandson of the emperor.

The emperor's heart is a needle in the bottom of the sea.

Jia Yan felt that it was none of his business, and only smiled at Shi Guangzhu's headache. The two returned to Zhuangzi, and Situ Kuo also came out of the room: "We will roast venison later, depending on the weather, it might snow. Appreciating the snow, drinking wine and eating meat, nothing could be better!"

"Guests do as they please, I'll listen to you." Jia Yan got off his horse, of course he didn't see Shi Guangzhu behind him shaking his head at Situ Kuo, Situ Kuo looked sad, but he said in a moment: "That's good, Boheng Be sure not to get drunk."

"The green felt tent is warm and the plum blossoms are wet, and the red burner is fragrant and the bamboo leaves are spring. Today Zou Mei is all in Luo, who is the Liang Yuan to call for wine?" In the evening, when it really started snowing, Daiyu looked outside and said to herself: "I don't know if my brother is going out with a cloak or not."

Mianfu laughed and said, "You forgot, Madam specially told Sister Dongwan that not only the girl is worried about the uncle, but the wife is also worried about the son-in-law." The big maids all covered their faces and smiled, which annoyed Daiyu. Chasing after Mianfu, he said, "Well, you bad girl, don't run away!"

The room was full of laughter for a while, Daiyu caught up with Mian Fu, and twisted her face lightly: "Don't talk nonsense!" She blushed at first, "We still have to wait until after the imperial examination before crossing the Ming road." , Engaged in marriage. By the way, Xueyan helped me find all the poetry collections, and I helped my brother write a few poems that should be made, and I will read them when he comes back, so as not to use them."

In the team of King Qi returning to the city, King Qi Situ Peng Zu suddenly asked: "Sima Shi Guangzhu is next to Lao Qi, but who is the other young man? Which son, why haven't I seen it?"

Jia Rong and Jia Yan had only met once, so naturally they didn't have a deep impression, only Jia Lian said courteously: "Don't dare to lie to the prince, they are members of the Rong family in Jinling, and now they have passed the examination of seventeen tributes."

"Seventeen tributes," Qi Wang said in amazement, "This person is not very old, he is only in his 20s, right? It can be seen that he is very talented and learned. I didn't expect that Rongguo Mansion started as a martial artist, and now there are Jinshi."

Jia Lian burst into laughter: "My lord is wise, my younger brother will only turn [-] next year, so he is young and promising. It is also my uncle, who is now the Minister of the Ministry of Households. He was raised by Lin Gong, who is the most upright in character. .”

Jia Rong next to him wanted to laugh. As Lian's second uncle, he wanted to spend not only the money in the frying pan, but he was not far behind when it came to flattery.After all, he is from his own family, Jia Rong also said: "Your Majesty does not know, that uncle of the family is said to have quite acquaintances, it is said that he is also very close to the sons of Changle's consort Duwei. When he passed the tribute examination, Both Prince Chu's residence and Princess Changle's residence sent congratulatory gifts."

Of course Situ Pengzu knew the influence of his brother-in-law Liang Yizhi on the emperor, he rode on the horse, pointed his whip at the city gate and said with a smile: "If there is a chance in the future, I will also show me this new Jinshi, he is a pillar of the country. .”

The two Young Masters of Jia naturally agreed, smiling so hard that they couldn't see their teeth.

The Zhongshun King Situyan next to him was wearing a hood, and a sneer flashed across his mouth. These were the descendants of Rong Guogong Jia Daishan.As for that Lin Hai, I never heard that he spoke for his father back then, he was all the same, no wonder it was Weng son-in-law.

And that Jia Yan is also a member of the Jia clan and Lin Hai's son-in-law, hehe, he must be a cunning villain!

Jia Yan, who didn't know that he had already been hated by others, was exchanging cups with Shi Guangzhu and Situ Kuo. After all, although Situ Kuo wanted to recruit civil servants, the king of Chu was young and his appearance was not so ugly.What's more, after all, the two of them had a bit of affection, and Situ Kuo really became interested because he met Jia Yan twice in Yangzhou that year and appreciated Jia Yan's eclecticism.

But even if it doesn't work, as long as Jia Yan doesn't become a member of the other princes, they can still be friends, but it's a pity that they are not Wangyou.

Speaking of which, "Wangyou" is an honorary title and an official position. According to the Han and Tang dynasties, close officials such as the prince's servants, bureaucrats, or celebrities appointed by the emperor with great expertise can all be called "Wangyou".For example, Wu Daozi, the saint of painting, once served as an official as "Ning Wangyou"; another example is Feng Xiaoyan, who was once a doctor of the Ministry of Officials and Nanyang Wangyou.

The officials of the East Palace, Prince Xima and other officials of the East Palace, according to the convention, can also be called "Prince Friends".For example, Guo He in the Jin Dynasty was once a friend of the prince, and there are too many such examples.

This is all the team of the feudal lord and Donggong himself. Situ Kuo felt a little frustrated when he thought about it. Obviously, there is no shortage of father and son getting along, teaching, and taking care of everything in daily life. Why did the emperor put himself in a separate book when it came to such an important matter!

It needs to be known that Shi Guangzhu's father was Prince Yizhong and the prince friend of the deposed prince Situ Hong back then, and now among the older princes who have left the palace to start a mansion, only Situ Kuo, who has been crowned king for several years, has no Wangyou.Officials, friends of the king, concubine, nothing, Situ Kuo, who was always upright and upright, was inevitably a little frustrated, and in the end he just drank wine.

Since the acquaintance, in addition to concealing his identity, Situ Kuo has actually treated Jia Yan more like a brother and playmate.Compared with the way King Qi wants to overwhelm King Chu with just two words today, if Jia Yan has to choose, he must choose a lord like King Chu to serve.However, after all, it was not time to make a choice, and Jia Yan was not willing to drag his uncle into the water.

Who wouldn't be willing to be a loyal minister with a good reputation, don't worry!

Shi Guangzhu stared at Situ Kuo, and kept persuading him not to drink too much, seeing that he was drunk, he sent him back to his room with the eunuch Gao Ting.When Shi Guangzhu came back to continue to have a barbecue and drink with Jia Yan, he suddenly waved back the servants and said in a deep thought: "Now the princes are growing up, your wings are getting richer, and this spring and autumn are getting taller. The noble concubine has joined hands with Your Majesty for more than [-] years. The King of Chu, King Huai of Wei, and the Twelve Princesses, if not for the King of Chu's role in the East Palace, the mother and son of the King of Chu might be cooking for the five cauldrons."

These are words from the bottom of my heart, Jia Yan held the wine glass and looked straight at Shi Guangzhu, Shi Guangzhu got up and said: "I am greatly favored by the King of Chu, the King of Chu himself is not willing to pierce the window paper with Boheng, so I have to come. I am a soft-spoken person, but today I have a question to ask Bo Heng."

Jia Yan said solemnly: "Please tell me."

"Boheng probably wants to be a loyal and pure minister. Every minister thinks so." Shi Guangzhu said with a smile: "But doesn't Boheng really want to give it a try? With Boheng's character and talent, he really doesn't want to." What's more, with the current situation, with your background and age, you will definitely become the target of many parties after you enter the court. What is Boheng going to do? Sitting on the wall and watching, you are not afraid of getting hurt because of waiting too long hateful."

Jia Yan's heart moved, he didn't think of himself, but thought of Lin Hai, he looked at Shi Guangzhu and said with a smile: "Brother Meng Gui also said that he can't speak, it's really too modest."

Shi Guangzhu also smiled: "It was forced out, there is no way."

"Brother Meng Gui, I also have a question," Jia Yan said with a faint smile, "Why are you staring at me? Is it up to me? For example, my brother Xu Zhi is a great talent, not to mention he also has a relationship with the King of Chu." Then it was a coincidence."

"Xu Zhengxing is the second place," Shi Guangzhu said, "When he passed the exam, the King of Chu hadn't opened the palace yet, and Xu Zhengxing was already watching the government in the Imperial Academy and helping His Majesty draft the imperial edict. Besides, I'm just a martial artist, so I can't act rashly." Recruiting young Jinshi... You need to know that the imperial concubine has been said to be a traitor in the past, alas." In terms of reputation, she doesn't have an advantage, thinking about the unrefined Yangzhou, maybe she will step on the imperial concubine's mother and son to become famous.

This is really a frank answer, Jia Boheng is a start, but Jia Yan is not satisfied.

"Then why not the elders? Even if I enter the court and have been an official in Beijing, I am still too young." This is a disadvantage.

Shi Guangzhu sighed: "Boheng, the elders in the court should either be like Uncle Ling or the son-in-law of Changle, and stay away from both sides. The rest are nothing more than two kinds, like the great scholar Chu Jin, they all think that if you want to grow up, you should be the King of Yan." Situ Chan is the heir apparent; as for the scholar Gu Xie, he is an offshoot of the Marquis of Boling, so he is naturally long and expensive. He thinks that the mother of King Yan came from a humble background, and it is not as good as the Gu family who was born in King Qi and married the royal family for generations. Although the King of Chu He is His Majesty's fourth surviving eldest son, but Qi Ye doesn't get much attention. Besides..."

"What's more, the bosses hope that His Majesty will not make love." Jia Yan sneered: "It seems that this can make the Great Wu Jiangshan stable. The mouth is orthodox, but the feet are honest. It's not like someone is standing up to the king!"

Shi Guangzhu said anxiously: "What brother Boheng said is right, but today you see that the young masters of Ningrong Second Mansion are also beside King Qi and Zhongshun? What is your plan now?"

Jia Yan said: "Let the King of Chu talk to me after he wakes up." He raised his glass, and Shi Guangzhu also raised his glass.

Situ Kuo had a good dream. In the dream, he was the one who received the most attention among the princes when his father cared for him.After the prince was abolished and died, many people thought that the emperor wanted to establish a crown prince because of his love, and then...then that happened.The mother was blatantly slandered as: traitorous concubine!

Although the father didn't care, he still treated his mother as before, but after that, the eighth younger brother Wei Wang died, and the father became indifferent to himself.After more than ten years, I am actually going to become the safest prince in the court—Your Majesty will definitely not become a prince because of love!

Ha ha.

Situ Kuo woke up from the hangover, he hoarsely called Gao Ting to bring water, but he did not expect Gao Ting to report back: Shi Sima said, if Qi Ye wakes up, please go to the study, Young Master Jia is also there.

"Study!" Situ Kuo almost choked on water, he was able to take Jia Boheng to the study, which meant that Guangzhu persuaded him.Situ Kuo hurriedly washed and changed his clothes, and went to the study.

"What did Boheng teach me?" Situ Kuo cupped his hands: "Everyone in Chu Palace will pay respects to Boheng! I still look at Boheng and know everything."

Jia Yan leaned back and said, "Don't dare, I already know about Qi Ye's troubles, but I still want to ask, why Qi Ye wants that position?"

"... I don't have big ambitions." Situ Kuo said with a smile, "If I told Boheng now that my family and country belonged to the world, Boheng wouldn't believe it. Boheng also knows the situation of my mother and son, so I'm not afraid of your jokes. No matter whether it is the third elder brother or the fourth elder brother succeeding to the throne, their mothers are afraid that they want to eat my mother. If the adopted sixth brother's birth mother, Concubine Xian, is also there, I'm afraid it will be the same. As a brother, I can't Don't think about my sister. As a son of man, how can I let my mother fall into such a situation!"

Jia Yan thought of himself, he suddenly wanted to laugh, and looked at the three people in this small room: two parents died, and they grew up with the support of relatives and friends; there was also a father who was not just his own father, who worried about his mother and sister all day long. future.

"It's only natural for Qi Ye to think so. Do you have to engrave the words "Family, Country, and World" on your face to be worthy? To be a wise king? Haha, I don't believe this. The singing is nice, but in my opinion, there is nothing more sincere and heart-breaking than Qi Ye said to me today."

Jia Yan looked at Shi Guangzhu: "I want Meng Gui to know that my parents are long gone. I have been raised by my uncle and aunt for ten years. In fact, before the Seventh Lord was a virtuous and virtuous corporal, I avoided it because I was worried that my uncle, huh, That is, the father-in-law was dragged into the water. But Brother Meng Gui is right, the situation in the court will only become more and more difficult in the future. Your Majesty is already old. My uncle has been a patrol officer and is a minister of the household department. He is the emperor and the courtier. In the future, if the old minister is used for surgery, I'm afraid he will be the first one."

"The Seventh Master treats me with sincerity, and Jia Yan will reciprocate with sincerity." Jia Yan bowed deeply: "Yan will look forward with the head of the king of Chu."

Forest House

"Nephew thinks King Chu is very good," Jia Yan, who came back from the suburbs, sat in Lin Hai's study, speaking frankly: "I think King Chu has ideas, and he is still young, if I don't give it a try, I will regret it. "

Lin Hai was dumbfounded. How could his nephew and son-in-law who had always been well-behaved, stable and obedient change his mind after going out for winter hunting!

He was not angry, but asked solemnly: "Yan'er, do you know how big this is?"

"I know," Jia Yan said, "but Situ Kuo is still fledgling. He is a good choice. Standing on his side now is a timely help. Uncle doesn't know. Jia Lian, Jia Rong, and the younger brother of the Duke of Dongping... and I also know that the elders in the court are sticking to their own opinions, but the emperor has remained silent."

Lin Hai watched his nephew talking freely, and suddenly thought of what he had said privately to Jia Daishan when he was dealing with the three common people.
