Drunken Red Mansion: Melting into Jade Madness

Chapter 091: The Capital Surprises the Civet Cat

The young master in a sky-blue robe, holding a three-month-old baby in his arms, drove a carriage and appeared in a village on the outskirts of the capital.

A sister-in-law passed by his carriage, turned her head curiously, and glanced at the blue-robed young man with a sallow complexion, "Young master, you are born."

The blue-robed young man laughed, "I came to look for a relative. It's been so many years, I forgot the direction."

"Who is the young master looking for?"

"Well... about 80 years old, known as Grandma Liu."

"Oh!" The sister-in-law laughed, "In our village, she is the only grandma surnamed Liu." After finishing speaking, she pointed to the front, "Further forward, after four houses, it is her home."

"Really?" The blue-robed young man looked ahead happily, and raised his hand in a bow, "Thank you, auntie."

Seeing that the blue-robed young master was about to drive the carriage in that direction, the sister-in-law let out an 'ah' again, "I said, young master, you went for nothing."

The blue-robed young man turned his head abruptly, "Why?"

"It's a crime!" After the sister-in-law said it, she shook her head and sighed, "I don't know why, it turns out that there are many people living here. I heard that it belongs to the Jia family whose capital has fallen. Come on, the two young masters of the Jia family won the election, and they all went to the court to become officials."

The blue-robed young master smiled, "I know from the letter my grandma gave me, that one of these two young masters is called Jia Baoyu and the other is called Jia Lan!"

The sister-in-law nodded, "Yes, that Jia Baoyu, his wife is still pregnant, what a wonderful person, he sometimes chats and laughs with us, that model is so beautiful!"

Hearing this, the young master in blue robe smiled and remained silent. Baochaiyan knew it earlier than Concubine Yang!

"Since the two young masters went to Beijing, their family members don't want to go back to Beijing, they say they are used to living here, so the two young masters come back from time to time whenever they are free. call this home."

"There's nothing wrong with making this home!" The blue-robed young man laughed, "Auntie, I heard from my grandmother's letter that Jia Baoyu's wife is going to give birth on February [-]th, no, Grandma asked me to bring a lot of children's clothes, but I didn't want to, I was delayed on the road, and I was still late."

"It was born on the twelfth day of the second lunar month." The sister-in-law sighed again, "But, I never imagined that the beautiful woman was born, and the baby was... actually a civet cat."

The young man in blue robe stood up abruptly, shocked unstoppably, "What did you say?"

The sister-in-law looked around again, "Because of this, that beautiful woman, alas, was regarded as a monster, and because of this, Grandma Liu's family didn't know what to do, so ah , in order not to be seen as a monster, the whole family moved."

"Moved? Where did you move?"

The sister-in-law shook her head, "We don't know exactly where they moved, but one morning, people in our village discovered that Grandma Liu's yard was locked, and they were never seen again. "

Hearing this, the young man in blue robe seemed to be dumbfounded and didn't respond.

The sister-in-law was very enthusiastic, "I remember, there is another Mr. Jia named Jia Lan." Seeing that the blue-robed young man nodded unconsciously, the sister-in-law continued: "That Jia Lan has now gone to work in Deng County, Huaizhou. The magistrate has gone."

"Lan'er? County magistrate?" The blue-robed young man woke up suddenly, "Thank you, auntie, you reminded me where to find them, right?"

After hearing what the blue-robed young man said, the sister-in-law just shook her head, "I'm afraid they won't go there either."

"why?"

"After the beautiful woman gave birth, Na Jialan received a document asking him to take office, and he came to pick them up, but the beautiful woman refused to leave." Seeing the wide-open eyes of the blue-robed young man, the sister-in-law He whispered: "Because that beautiful woman went crazy after she knew that she gave birth to a civet cat. She only said 'daughter', 'daughter' and kept arguing for her child!"

"Daughter, daughter!" The blue-robed young man murmured and repeated.

"It's better for Grandma Liu. She urged that son named Jia Lan and that Mrs. Li to go on the road, saying that she should not delay Mr. Jia's itinerary, let alone delay Mr. Jia's fame. She wants to stay here and put this After the matter is cleared up, the beautiful woman should be cleared before leaving."

The blue-robed young man knew that the Li family this sister-in-law was talking about was Jia Lan's mother, Li Wan, "What happened next?"

"As for us, we also advised that Mrs. Li and her son to go on the road. After all, it is widely rumored that the beautiful woman is an evildoer and a person who is full of anger. It is better not to take it with you. After hearing this, Mrs. Li had no choice but to ask that beautiful woman Grandma Liu took care of the woman and went to Deng County with her son."

Hearing the words, the blue-robed young man was full of doubts, "Then according to what Grandma Liu said, they should stay here and investigate the matter clearly, why did they disappear?"

"It's a crime!" The enthusiastic sister-in-law sighed again, "Not long after, the news came that the woman's husband had been killed by bandits, and people even said that this family was very evil, and that the beautiful woman was a There are more and more evildoers, saying that she not only made her own child become a civet cat, but also killed her husband, and more people pointed at her. Soon after, oh... so, there are One day, they moved away, and no one knew where they moved."

"Is it only Grandma Liu and the beautiful woman who left, or..."

"In addition to the crazy beautiful woman, there are two girls beside Grandma Liu. There are five people calling 'Ban'er'." The enthusiastic sister-in-law sighed, "What a wonderful family, they like to help us from time to time, how can such a good family become evildoer?"

"Civet cats? Some people believe such absurd things?" The blue-robed young man showed annoyance on his face. It was obvious that someone set the blame on him. "How can people give birth to civet cats?"

"However, the Wen woman who delivered the baby really delivered a civet cat." Seeing that the blue-robed young man didn't believe it, the elder sister-in-law said, "Later, we heard that the husband of that beautiful woman was born with a jade in his mouth. Yes, it's not normal, so, this matter spread more and more mysteriously, and we all believed it, I'm afraid, their family is a monster, otherwise, why did the whole family disappear in an instant?"

Hearing this, the young man in blue robe seemed to be quite painful and closed his eyes, "Then, that Wen Po is..."

"Grandma Li in the east of the city, speaking of it, everyone knows her name, and the children delivered by her hands are all lucky."

"Really?" The blue-robed young man laughed, and looked at the enthusiastic sister-in-law, "Thank you, aunt, it seems that I have to leave as soon as possible, so as not to be contaminated with evil spirits."

"Yes, yes, let's go quickly." The sister-in-law said, shaking her head, and said as she walked, "We all said that Grandma Liu is good, and told her not to take in that temptress, alas, but she... alas... "

Looking at the back of the enthusiastic sister-in-law Yuanyun, the young man in blue robe drove the carriage to the door of Grandma Liu's house. Sure enough, a lock was hung across it in the yard. Looking up at the yard, weeds were overgrown. The young man in blue had tears in his eyes, and he clenched his fists, "Second brother, I'm really useless, really useless, don't worry, I will definitely find my second sister-in-law and your child."

In the capital, looking at the streets that are no longer familiar, they drove past the original Ning and Rong mansions one by one. When passing by the Beijing Prince's Mansion, the blue-robed young man glanced at the sleeping child in the carriage, and said nothing. Just drove the carriage and continued to drive forward.

"Grandma Liu, second sister-in-law, girl Yun, Qiao'er, where are you?"

In Sun Shaozu's house, she had inquired in private, those people did not settle down, that is to say, Grandma Liu and the others did not come to her at all in order not to bring their anger to Yingchun!Instead, she really disappeared, in order to avoid the rumors of evildoers, she disappeared.

As night fell, when we were traveling to the east of the city, the young man in blue robe stopped the carriage and looked at a small stall owner, "Excuse me, is there a lady Li Wen who lives here?"

"Yes." The owner of the stall looked at the young man in blue robe with a sallow complexion, "The young master is looking for her..."

The blue-robed young man pointed to the sleeping child in the carriage, "This child was delivered by my mother-in-law. When it was born, it was in a catastrophe. Now, it has grown so strong. I'm here to thank her."

"Oh! Then Li Wenpo's delivery skills are the best." Xiao Tan said, pointing to the front, "Go straight, pass the second house, and turn left to the first house."

"Thank you brother."

The blue-robed young man continued to drive the carriage, and according to what Xiao Tan said, he went straight to Li Wenpo's residence and knocked on the door.

As the door opened, an old face appeared in the eyes of the blue-robed young man, "Excuse me, is this the home of Granny Li?"

"Exactly, son?"

"You are Granny Li?" Seeing the old woman nodding, the blue-robed young man hastily bowed, "Have you forgotten, Granny Li?" Pointing to the carriage behind him, a child was faintly visible, "This child was delivered by you , thanks to you, survived."

"Oh!" Granny Li smiled happily, "There are so many deliveries, I forgot, forgot!"

"I came today, and I brought some gifts, especially to thank my mother-in-law."

Granny Li was a little excited, "No, no need!"

The blue-robed young man held the child in his arms, and took out a gift from the car, and handed it to Granny Li, "Although there are few things, they are still full of heart."

"Young master, you are too polite." Granny Li said as she greeted the blue-robed young master, "Come in and have a cup of tea to quench your thirst."

The blue-robed young man nodded, "So, Granny Li is here."

Unknowingly, he put the pills that he had prepared in the teacup that Granny Li was drinking. The blue-robed young man picked up the cup and handed it to Granny Li, "Grandma, please drink tea."

"My lord, you are polite, you can drink."

The young man in blue robe picked up another cup, "I'll just drink this cup."

Seeing the young master in blue gulp down the tea, Granny Li smiled and narrowed her eyes. She also drank the tea in her hand, put down the teacup, and touched the child in the young master's arms, "How old are you? What is it called?"

"It's been three months, and my name is Lin Tianyu!"

"Huh!" Granny Li was surprised, "Accordingly, I only delivered one family three months ago, and there was no one named Lin?"

"Really?" The blue-robed young man smiled, "Then, is the surname Jia?"

"You!" Granny Li obviously couldn't close her mouth, pointing at the young man in blue robe, "Who are you?"

"I, I am Jia Baoyu!"

"Ah!" Granny Li screamed and fell down on the chair, "No, it's impossible. I just heard that Jia Yuanwai died in Wuzhou, and he returned to Beijing to bury him a while ago."

"I can't rest in peace." The blue-robed young man laughed, his face was rather ferocious, "I think I haven't seen the child born on my side, so even the soul will come back three times a day until it finds it. My child is."

"No, it's none of my business." Looking at the sallow face of the blue-robed young man, Granny Li's eyes seemed to be in a daze, and she felt countless ghosts shouting in front of her eyes, and she knelt on the ground in fright, "Yes...it's the Xining Palace. Your Royal Physician Wang asked me to do this?"

The blue-robed young man raised his eyebrows slightly, "Xining Palace?"

"I don't know the specifics. I only know that the Royal Physician of Xining Palace came to me personally and asked me to find a baby born in February. It just so happened that the Xue family in the suburbs of Beijing was about to give birth to me, so ,so……"

"So, you replaced my baby with a civet cat, didn't you?"

Granny Li shook her hands in fright, "No, no, it wasn't my idea. The civet cat was given to me by the doctor Wang, and he put it in a medicine box, and then replaced the newborn baby. You know, People in the palace, I am an old woman, I can't afford to offend you!"

"My poor child, is it a son or a girl?"

"Yes... a daughter!"

The blue-robed young man seemed to be trying his best to calm down the anger in his heart. After a while, "Do you think you can take this money with a clear conscience? Don't be afraid, the King of Hades will knock on the door in the middle of the night."

Hearing this, Granny Li screamed and passed out.

"It's only this amount of medicine, so it's so intimidating." The blue-robed young man kicked Granny Li who was lying on the ground, "It seems that this Xining Palace is not much better, I'm afraid it is someone in the Xining Palace The concubine has come to 'change the civet cat for the prince'!"

Trying to calm down the excitement in my heart, I looked up at the sky, "Second brother, don't worry, I will help you get your daughter back, and I will avenge you, but I have to find the second brother first. Sister-in-law, Grandma Liu and the others said again, in that case, let your daughter be a little princess in the Xining Palace for the time being, and enjoy her happiness."

Helping Granny Li, who was unconscious, into the carriage, the young man in blue robe looked up at the sun blocked by the dark clouds, and touched the blood book in his arms, "It's too dark here, Nan'an Palace, Xining Palace, your debts, I will I want to get it back. Don't rely on anyone, only rely on me, only rely on me!"

Finally, when he came to the majestic small courtyard with four squares, he saw the words 'Jianghulou Fenzhuang' written on it, and the blue-robed young man jumped off the carriage and knocked on the door of the Fenzhuang.

Seeing the token in the blue-robed young master's hand, the person in charge hastily greeted him, "Young master is..."

"It doesn't matter who I am!" The young man in blue robe shook the token in his hand, "As long as you know this token."

The master hurriedly bowed, "Please come in."

The blue-robed young man waved his hand, "No need." Pointing to Granny Li on the carriage, "Please send this token and Granny Li to the Shen Mansion in Qinghai Lake. Tell Master Shen that to save Granny Li's life, It will be of great use in the future.”

"Yes!" The master took the token and waved his hand. A few people who looked like his subordinates had already lifted the unconscious Granny Li from the carriage. Where to go, do you want our staff to help?"

"No need, you just send Granny Li to Qinghai Lake, President Shen knows what to do." After finishing speaking, she jumped into the carriage and drove away with a whip. She had to get out of the city before closing the city gate. She wanted to find the second brother's family. Only by finding them could she get back the child for the second brother.
