The Bandit Gentleman of the Red Chamber

Chapter 29 Strange incidents lead to three princes abandoning imperial examinations because of sinis

Although taking the college examination is not an expedient measure, Mr. Zhuang really stared at Lin Chen's homework fiercely, and Lin Chen sadly led a happy life of getting up earlier than a chicken and going to bed later than a dog.It's just that today there was an important matter that Lin Chen had to come forward, and even Mr. Zhuang couldn't do it on his behalf, so Mr. Zhuang had no choice but to send him a few men with strong fists and feet to follow him.

Unexpectedly, Lin Chen had a peaceful journey, but encountered a strange thing when he came back.At the foot of the Son of Heaven, noble people gather, but on the most prosperous East Street in the capital, there are actually people who are slaves and commit murder in the street, blocking half of the road!

The coachman at the Zhuang's mansion was still very discerning, and he immediately pulled over the carriage. Just as Lin Chen was about to send someone over to ask, he heard a menacing male voice shouting, "Where did the thing that didn't have eyes come from Mr. Zhao's?" You dare to block the frame! Hurry up and get the person away, so as not to dirty the young master's eyes!" Then there was a burst of fighting and shouting, occasionally mixed with a few begging for mercy that were too weak to be ignored.

Lin Chen wondered, at this moment, all the officials in the capital are cautious in their words and deeds to restrain their families, lest something goes wrong to provoke criticism, how could anyone dare to be so arrogant?When the carriage drove past the place where people were making trouble, Lin Chen could smell blood even more sensitively... He couldn't help frowning, who is this "Mr. Zhao"?Also too insane.

Back at Zhuang's mansion, Lin Chen first explained to Mr. Zhuang what he did today, and then remembered the incident that just happened to him. After thinking about it, he still told Mr. Zhuang about the matter in detail. , and asked again: "I think I know most of the people in the capital, but this family surnamed Zhao, but only Mr. Zhao's family, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, is it his son?"

Mr. Zhuang put down the book in his hand, sneered and said: "You are smart, you didn't get involved in this matter. What kind of son is he, he is a singer! I don't want to be taken by that person, baba lift up Entering the mansion, it’s just a joke. Have you ever heard of a serious young man being called ‘Young Master’?”

Seeing Mr. Zhuang making the word "three", Lin Chen understood and said with a smile: "Today I saw Mr. Zhao going out, huddled in front of him and hugged him in a grand manner, and another servant was shouting and drinking, but How many pairs of eyes did I fall into when I went out of the door. It can be seen... this loyal prince... is really smart."

Mr. Zhuang also said with a smile: "No, right now, only this master can see it clearly. You don't know, in the palace, apart from the Empress Empress, only Empress Defei can take care of Xian'an Palace. …The origin of family education makes people have to admire.”

The loyal prince Xingsan, whose mother is the concubine Gu of Jingren Palace, ranks only below the empress.

Although the title is the same, this Concubine Gu De is not comparable to the Concubine Zheng De of the previous dynasty. She is of the same family as Empress Zhao Jingwen, and she is the eldest daughter of Gu Hong and Grand Tutor Gu. With the help of her in-laws, the position of queen is not up to He's parents and daughter.Today, I also feel sorry for this cousin, and as soon as she succeeded to the throne, she was named a concubine, and she was favored.

Prince Loyalty has such a powerful mother family and a noble mother, but he is not seen in this battle for the succession. Concubine Gu De is not in good health and needs to be raised by generals. Jingren Palace never entertains guests, and so does the Gu family. The door is closed and no outsiders come and go...

But Prince Loyalty has always had a good reputation, and he is even more suave and talented. He has a good reputation both in Shixun nobles and in Qingliu, but why Mr. Zhao...even if he wants to be uncontested, he doesn't have to pollute himself?Lin Chen felt that he couldn't figure out this loyal prince...

At this time, Mr. Zhuang suddenly heard him say: "You don't have to go to this hospital exam, and you can just stay at my place and study at ease."

Lin Chen was stunned, and quickly asked: "Listen to what you mean... Enke will not be peaceful this time?" Mr. Zhuang sighed as if he was concerned about the country and the people: "Enke is a matter of benefiting the people. It just so happened that there was that unsightly screwdriver who used him as a name... Heh, don't even think about it, this time he opened Enke for the sake of Shengshang Wanshou, if something went wrong, he thought he could push it four or five and it would be fine? Sure enough, he came from the general's family, and he has no vision at all!" From the general's family?Although the grandfather of Prince Zhongheng, the old general Rong, had spent half his life in the army, and there were indeed many generals in the Rong family, his uncle, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Rong Ziliang, was a real scholar... Mr. Zhuang said this, in fact, it was mostly because of the recent extension Concubine Xigong Yi's behavior became more and more arrogant, and she made insulting remarks several times, which must have offended Zhonggong...

But he had seen Prince Zhongheng before, he didn't look so stupid, why did he even dare to get involved with Enke?Lin Chen looked up at Mr. Zhuang.

For some reason (Concubine Yi is deeply favored by His Majesty), Zhuang You has never been used to the behavior of the Rong family. Seeing that his family is going to be unlucky, he can't help gloating, and explained to Lin Chen in a good mood: "Zhongheng He's not stupid, he's not stupid enough to mess with Huang Jin's Wanshou, but the one in the palace isn't... If you say that Prince Lian is really ruthless, he just hit Zhongheng when he hit the snake with seven inches The sore spot." Lin Chen couldn't understand more and more, Yifei is a woman in the palace, no matter how favored she is, no matter how strong her natal family is, she can't interfere with the affairs of the court...

Mr. Zhuang was in the right mood, and he was happy to explain to his apprentice: "Of course she can't get in the way, but I can see the emperor. I heard that the wife of Rong Shangshu's family met with Jiaofang a few days ago and was sick. The family members of those generals are out of control. I have to complain about what I have and what I don’t have.” What else can I complain about?In today's prosperous and peaceful world, there are no military generals, and there is only one title. If there are many monks and few meat, the only way is the imperial examination.It's a pity... So far, the Rong family has only produced Rong Shangshu as a scholar.

As long as Concubine Yi dares to seek a future for the children of the family in front of Shang Jinshang at this moment, the Rong family will not be able to escape the huge net that King Lian has opened up!

—————————————Actually, you should have guessed the dividing line of this matter Lin Chen did—————————

Mr. Zhuang felt a lot of emotion for the tragic end of his old enemy, but when he thought of the people behind this game, he couldn't help sighing: "This Lian County King is really amazing... But, alas, it's a pity... If he can let go , that’s fine.” But he didn’t say why it was a pity.

Some things are obviously not something that people can decide on their own, but good luck tricks people, and once it is doomed, there will never be a chance for people to come back.King Lianjun's talents and methods are all excellent, but because of the entanglement of his elders, he is destined to miss the emperor... If he can see through and let go earlier, maybe the end will not be too miserable, but...

However, if he wants to let go now, those nobles who are already standing behind him will not agree, right?But that's good too, at least when the new emperor comes to power, he will have a good reason to clean up these nobles, and he won't be scolded as "mean and ungrateful" again... Thinking of someone hiding in the suburbs of Beijing Among the people in the private house, Lin Chen was happily thinking about the future.

He even smiled and said to Mr. Zhuang: "Mister, why do you feel sorry for him again? You know, the historian of his parents didn't know what he said to my grandmother the day before yesterday, and my sister cried the next day."

Hearing that Daiyu was mentioned, Zhuang You frowned fiercely, and was about to interrogate him, but he heard the housekeeper outside report: "Second Master, I report to Second Master, Second Mistress brought her brothers and sisters to pay her respects!"
