The Bandit Gentleman of the Red Chamber

On this day, Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng were looking through the gift list for the next year to check and put it into the warehouse. They were in a hurry, but Jin Chuan'er opened the curtain from the outside and came in with a smile: "Congratulations to my wife, my aunt brought my brother." My sister is here, and the family is going to Beijing, and we are getting off outside the second gate." Mrs. Wang hurriedly brought her daughter-in-law and others, took them out of the hall, and took Aunt Xue and others in.

When the sisters meet in their old age, needless to say, there are mixed feelings of sorrow and joy, weeping and laughing.Mrs. Wang hurriedly invited Jiamu to visit again, and offered all kinds of favors and things.Waiting for the furniture to be together, I have seen it, and I am busy preparing the table to meet the wind.

Jia Zheng then asked someone to come up and say to Mrs. Wang, "my aunt is old enough, and my nephew is young and doesn't know the way of life and lives outside for fear of something. There are a dozen or so rooms in Shanglixiangyuan in the northeast corner of our house. I have been free and cleaned. It would be nice to invite my aunt and sister to stay here."

Before Mrs. Wang could stay, a woman came from Jia Mu's place and said, "Please stay here, my aunt, and let's be close" and so on.

Aunt Xue came here to visit relatives, and with the words of Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang even stayed on the sidelines, so she was overjoyed.But pretending to evade, and privately said to Mrs. Wang: "It is a common law to exempt all daily expenses and supplies." Mrs. Wang knew that his family was rich in money, and it was not difficult to do so, so she followed her wish.In this way, the Xue family lived in Lixiangyuan.

On the second day, Aunt Xue took her daughter to greet the old lady early, accompanied by Mrs. Wang.Mother Jia saw a little girl with plump flesh and lustrous skin. What was rare was her demure face and polite manners. She liked it a little bit and said with a smile, "Miss, come ahead, let me take a closer look."

Baochai lowered her head slightly, and took two steps forward. Mother Jia took her hand, looked her up and down, and said to Aunt Xue after a while, "It really is a good one, but it's a good thing for everyone in my family." I can't compare it. The concubine is blessed."

Xue Baochai blushed a long time ago, and Aunt Xue hurriedly laughed from below: "Don't make fun of us, old lady! I saw the girls in your mansion yesterday, although I didn't look carefully, I know they are the best!"

Jia Mu said with a smile: "their sisters will come here in a while. I have a granddaughter who lives here with her brother. She was not well yesterday and she didn't see any guests. Then the aunt and wife will meet together See you." Then he smiled at Baochai, "Good boy, these girls in my family are not proficient in intelligence, but they are very good-natured. If you see me, you must have something to say."

Not sure if there was a word, but a little girl came to report: "Baoyu, Uncle Lin, Miss Lin and the girls are here."

Seeing a few of them coming in, Jia Mu laughed and said, "Why are you so complete today?" When we arrived, the third younger sister said that we might as well go together, so as to make our ancestors happy. Then we waited for Cousin Lin and Sister Lin, and everyone came to say hello together."

Mother Jia glanced at Tanchun, but said nothing, just smiled at Aunt Xue: "Concubine, let's see my girl." Sanchun hurried forward to salute.Pulling Daiyu again, she said with a smile, "This is my granddaughter."

Aunt Xue saw these girls from Jia's mansion, they were all exquisite and charming, and they were all at the age of flower bones, so she liked them very much, and she was full of praise.

Xue Baochai was a little taken aback when she saw Mother Jia hugging a pretty girl affectionately, while her granddaughter was sitting on a chair under the hall.Looking up, Baoyu happened to be looking in this direction, and her eyes met. Baochai couldn't help being ashamed, and hurriedly looked away.But Baoyu is really happy that such a fairy-like sister has come to the family again, and only thinks that the sister of Xue's family is really only comparable to sister Lin.

Mother Jia looked at the two of them with a smile, pointing to Lin Chen and said to Aunt Xue, "This is my grandson. He went to school yesterday, so he hasn't seen him yet."

Aunt Xue had already noticed that there was such a young son in the hall, she also heard from my sister that this nephew of Jia's mansion, when she saw Lin Chen came forward to greet her, she smiled and said: "What a delicate child, today is I've seen it." Then he ordered someone to take a gift to the Lin brothers and sisters.

Lin Chen just sent his younger sister for a formality, and he had to go to the Zhuang Mansion, so he resigned after asking Ann.Jiamu then ordered the people who followed: "Wrap him with a bag of big woolen clothes, and the hand stove and foot stove are indispensable. If the master freezes, take care of your skins!"

Aunt Xue asked curiously, "Don't Brother Lin have a teacher who should be in the library? In this weather, you want to go out to study?"

Before Jia's mother could speak, Madam Wang interjected, "I'll tell you the same thing. If you don't want Brother Lin, you can study at our school. The gentleman I worshiped before died, so now I'm going to his house."

Daiyu was annoyed, she still remembered her brother's words, she always refused in every possible way, and she didn't say anything.

But Jia Mu sighed: "Why not? Every day we see him go out early and return late at a young age. We feel distressed when we see him. However, he is a master who is said to be very capable. Even if ordinary people ask to come Those who are not willing to teach. After all, it is the blessing of their children, and they are more tired now, so they will be better in the future."

After all, they weren't real relatives, Mother Jia just exchanged a few words with Aunt Xue, and didn't care about Mrs. Wang, who was flirting with each other, and just left lunch.But Baochai was left to play with Daiyu as companions.

—————————Brother Chen triggers the dividing line of the copy of the fifth prince———————————

When Lin Chen arrived at Zhuang's mansion, Mr. Zhuang was receiving guests. When he saw Lin Chen coming in, he pointed at him and smiled, "This is the apprentice I told you about. Just take a look."

The man looked up, and Lin Chen saw a young man with a face like a crown of jade in front of him, but he didn't know how to address him, and he was a little embarrassed standing in the hall.

Looking secretly at Mr. Zhuang, Mr. Zhuang jokingly said: "This is my new apprentice, you should call him Junior Brother." In the end, he helped him out, and recommended, "This is the official of the current official department. Shangshu's second son, Rong Yimo, has long been famous, and now holds an editorial position in the Imperial Academy. Calculated, you two are still of the same generation."

When Lin Chen heard that he was the son of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, he was slightly shocked, but his face was full of gentleness and greeted Rong Mo, calling him "brother".Rong Mo smiled and said: "But I never thought that Mr. Zhuang would have such a well-behaved apprentice. It's just that I came out in a hurry today. I didn't know that you would be here, and I didn't prepare a gift. If you don't give this clumsy thing to Lin Xiaodi Brother Yu's kindness." As he spoke, he took off a jade buckle on his waist and handed it over.

Lin Chen thanked him, but seeing an outsider was there, Rong Mo only exchanged a few words with Mr. Zhuang and left in a hurry.

Seeing people go out, Lin Chen couldn't sit still immediately, pestered Mr. Zhuang and asked.Zhuang You was laughed angrily by him, and scolded: "But you have to say this when you meet someone. If you are half as diligent when you study on weekdays, you don't even have to worry about the champion!"

Lin Chen refused, and continued to ask: "Sir, that's from the official secretary's family. There are so many pairs of eyes in the capital, are you not afraid of accidents?"

It's not that Lin Chen made a big fuss, it's just that the younger sister of Shangshu Rongzi, the official minister, is the concubine Yifei, the mother concubine of the fifth prince, Prince Zhongheng.As long as you are a normal person, at this stall, the farther you are from them, the better.Unexpectedly, the second son of the Rong family has come to visit the Zhuang mansion!

Zhuang You was really annoyed by him, and he didn't intend to hide it from him, so he said: "The day before yesterday, Shengjia came to Xian'an Palace."

Lin Chen was completely stunned. Whether it was the Red Mansion or the Qing Dynasty, it was impossible for the abolished prince to recover so early. Could it be that he had messed up the plot?He couldn't help muttering: "What do you mean today? Could it be... the time for that master to stand up?"

Zhuang You laughed at him and said with a smile: "After the former concubine left, the deposed prince fell ill. Today I just went to see him quietly, but I heard that I didn't sleep all night after I came back. Be down-to-earth. To tell you the truth, that person is not a fool, why did he do such a stupid thing?"

It is indeed a good deal to exchange a woman's life for the emperor to come to see him. Perhaps the reason why the prince kept his funeral in secret before was to secretly prepare for a serious illness?After all, it's not easy to hide the fact that it's too hospital.It's just pitiful for Miss Zhen's family, a wisp of fragrant soul was lost in the game between her husband and her father.

Sympathizing with the deceased Crown Princess, Lin Chen was most concerned about: "Who else knows about Shengjia's visit to Xian'an Palace?"

Zhuang You gouged him out, cursed secretly, and said: "The secrets of the palace, the whereabouts of the Holy One, who do you think everyone knows? After all, only the Empress Zhonggong and Concubine Yi know about it in the palace."

In today's Kunji, the Empress of the Central Palace is not a direct descendant of the Yuan Dynasty. Although the Empress Dowager of the Yuan Dynasty was mourned for a time, but for the sake of the country, he still welcomed the youngest daughter of the former cabinet scholar Zhuang Xu Zhuang as the queen.

This Empress Zhuang is the younger sister of the Minister of Rites and the aunt of Mr. Zhuang Youzhuang.It is because of such a towering tree in the harem that Mr. Zhuang can get such top-secret news.

After knowing that there were not many people who got the news, Lin Chen heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that it was probably because it was top-secret, so it was not recorded in the history of the book.It's just that what did Rong Mo want to find Mr.?

"Rong Mo wants me to help the Fifth Prince."

Lin Chen: "What???!!!"

☆、Chicken outside the episode is in Yangzhou ([-])

Seeing that the Chinese New Year is about to come, all officials in Jiangnan, big and small, are not in that mood.There is no other reason--the gods fight and the mortals suffer.The immediate boss is making a fuss, can their life be easier?

But there is something worse than them - our Royal Highness Duke Dun.His status in Yangzhou was embarrassing, and there were not many people who could order him around. Finally, there was such an unlucky person as Chen Ji, and he had to use tricks to win him over.

What's more, Zhen Xi, the former hardcore president of the princeling party, seems to want to use himself to show his loyalty to the new master.In the beginning, he only obstructed Ji Wen in the dark, but now, his actions are put on the bright side.Although Ji Wen was not very favored, no one dared to be so arrogant to him since he was a child, so he was naturally very annoyed.

However, even if he and Chen Ji join forces, there is nothing they can do about Zhen Xi.First of all, like Ji Wen, Zhen Xi is also an imperial envoy.Although Ji Wen is the king of the county, but the real power is less than others, not to mention Chen Ji, even his official position is half a rank lower than others.

In addition, unlike Chen Ji, Zhen Xi came from a grassroots background. The Zhen family has been running Jiangnan for nearly a hundred years, and the foundation is not comparable to that of Chen Ji, who climbed to the position of governor in just a dozen years.

What's more, Jiangnan Governor Shi Mude was on the sidelines to help out, and the two joined forces to control the Jiangnan officialdom.Squeeze Governor Chen, who used to call the wind and rain, into an unknown corner.Ji Wen hasn't opened her brow these days...

As usual, she wrote a letter to Lin Chen about the recent situation, and Ji Wen couldn't figure out why Lin Chen was always the first person she wanted to tell whenever she had trouble.Maybe that person would give me pertinent and effective advice that didn't fit his age every time, or... I simply wanted to find someone to talk to, and Lin Chen was the only one who was willing to listen...

When she couldn't wait to read Lin Chen's reply, Ji Wen was a little annoyed, her life in Yangzhou was not going well and she didn't see this person comforting her, but she still just wrote these troublesome news? !

Suppressing his anger, he continued to read, only to see that the humanist had changed his writing at the end of the article: "Recently, there are no major events in the capital. There is only one thing that must be disclosed. When I read history in the past, I saw Yi Ya, Kai Fang, and Shu Diao, and Shu Diao mutilated himself. Kaifang abandoned his family and turned his back on the country, and Yi Ya cooked and killed his son. He smiled foolishly, saying that it was just the ignorance of the ancients, who only saw authority. But he didn't want to see the prescription, and made things hard to find, but he heard that Yi Ya had already appeared in this world. Sad and sad Sigh! Deplorable!"

Ji Wen's eyes were a little red, Lin Chen didn't comfort him, didn't pity him, but pointed him to a clear path... This person is really... really... considerate...

Ji Wen reluctantly rubbed the Junxiu handwriting on the letter paper, and it took a long time before throwing it into the stove, and seeing that it was burnt out, she went out to discuss matters with Chen Ji.

Chen Ji also felt that Zhen Xi, an old fox, was really slippery. If this little braid was caught well, it would definitely make Zhen Xi calm down for a while.However, whether Ji Wen or Chen Ji, neither of them has the confidence to pass the news to Da Qiantui without being suspected...

In Yangzhou at the moment, there is only one person who is capable of doing it and is likely to be willing to do it—the doctor of the second-rank Lantai Temple, and Lord Lin Hailin, the inspector of salt and censor...

Lin Hai was not surprised when he saw the butler coming over with a post from King Dun, and welcomed him in himself.

This is the second time for Ji Wen to see Lin Hai, because she knows that the person in front of her is Lin Chen's father, so she is a little more kind.Lin Hai served tea to people himself, and said with a smile: "The humble house is so simple, it makes His Highness laugh."

Ji Wen hurriedly said, "Where is that?" Then he smiled and said, "Speaking of which, the king and Mr. Ling are close friends, but it's really ashamed that they didn't come to visit until now."

The two talked for a long time, but they didn't mention anything about the official affairs. Seeing that it was getting dark, Ji Wen got up to leave.He turned serious and said: "The reason for Xuanche's visit this time, I believe Ah Chen has already told Mr. Lin, but Xuanche is really worried, so he came to ask Mr. Lin for an answer."

Lin Hai smiled slightly and said: "My son is the most ghostly, bragging and horse racing, His Royal Highness must be fooled by him." The conversation changed, "Your Highness's worries and Lin's worries are all the same, and Lin dare not say anything. He only tried his best."

After getting Lin Hai's promise, Ji Wen let go of a big rock in her heart, and felt a lot more relaxed.In front of the second gate, he insisted not to let Lin Hai send him off again, and hurried back to the Governor's Mansion.

Chen Ji's thinking was much more complicated than Ji Wen's. Lin Hai believed it or not, let's not mention it for now, and said that if this matter can't drive Da Qiantui and Zhen Xi apart, and Zhen Xi retaliates, how should they deal with themselves?

Ji Wen sat on the first grand master's chair, and was given a headache by Chen Ji's endless chatter. She was really worried about her own situation after the failure, and only hoped that Lin Hai would not let him down...

Lin Hai really didn't disappoint, he didn't say anything to Da Chitose.It's just that when the children in the streets and alleys of the capital sang the nursery rhyme of "throwing pearls to pick up fish eyes, burning Ah Fang to live in a hut", Da Chitose realized something was wrong.

I said earlier that this master has the temperament of a warrior, and he always pays attention to being straightforward, and most of all, he is a one-track mind.But he is a prince after all, and he has been immersed in conspiracy and conspiracy for these years, so he can see it all, not to mention that he has a bright pearl to assist him.When the nursery rhyme spread to his ears, the first thing that came to his mind was the Zhen family.

Da Chitose was able to accept the Zhen family's refuge largely because of Ming Xiang's persuasion.In his nature, he hated those nasty things in the officialdom.As the prince's in-laws, the fact that the Zhen family was the first to abandon the prince was normal for those officials who stepped on the highs and lows.But for princes like them, the Zhen family's move is tantamount to a hot blow to the royal family!

In the eyes of these Tianhuang nobles, the Zhen family is just a slave, no matter how prominent they are, they are at most decent slaves.But in the end, this slave kicked off his master and turned to others, not to mention, he even blatantly bullied his master!

The more Zhen Xi showed off his skills in Jiangnan, the more unhappy Da Qiantui became with the Zhen family.What's more, the crown prince has already fallen, but your Zhen family raised their arms in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are still a lot of people responding to it-what do you think if you want to be a thousand years old?It turns out that those bureaucrats in the south of the Yangtze River who are "loyal" to the prince, are they loyal to the prince or your Zhen family?

The nursery rhymes spread by the Lin family completely ignited the doubts in Da Qiantui's heart. Maybe the Zhen family did not turn against him at all. The prince saves his strength!

if not?His Zhenxi's daughter is the Crown Princess, who is the future queen for sure!He didn't want to be a good uncle of the country, and following him was at most a meritorious service, so why did he come here eagerly?And those "princelings" under the command of the Zhen family in Jiangnan...

...The more Da Qiantui thinks about it, the more frightened he becomes... This Zhen family... can't stay...

I sincerely hope that Daqian's face won't be too pretty when the crown princess dies in a month's time......
