The Second Master Lian of the Red Chamber

The local yamen servants went all the way to heaven and earth and failed to find the court official, but was "coincidentally" rescued by someone who was temporarily transferred by order for rotation. When Yang Yuan ordered Xia Shouzhong to read Yan Ran's memorial at the court, there was always a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

The memorial is naturally written in a high-sounding style, saying that it was a fluke, and it was only with the blessing of His Majesty and the Emperor Ziqi that Jia Shilang was successfully found back. Yun Yun, even the gods have something to do with this matter. The old man floats on the sea waves, his stick points to the southeast."

The most remarkable thing is Jia Lian, who has been missing for these days, and he claims to have been in a daze. ".Therefore, he not only returned safely, but also offered the auspicious pearl unicorn.

Even though all the ministers knew that there was not a half-truth in it, no one refuted it. Otherwise, wouldn't it mean that the Holy Majesty and the Emperor were not born with purple energy and could not protect the people?As for the truth or falsehood of auspiciousness, anyone who is insane will know how to say it.

Among the generals, Wang Ziteng took the lead to bow his head and bowed down, saying that your majesty is holy and auspicious from heaven, and the clever ones also knelt down. A lot of special writing.

Auspiciousness shows His Majesty's sageness, and those who offer auspiciousness will naturally be rewarded generously.Yan Ran was promoted to the post of garrison. Although Jia Lian's official position remained unchanged for a while, he also received a generous reward.Xia Shouzhong, the chief eunuch of the former imperial eunuch, rode a horse to Rongguo Mansion to announce the decree in person, and after the decree was announced, the elder Jia She accompanied him to have a cup of tea alone.

Because Jia Lianjian was in the emperor's heart, Xia Shouzhong came to Jia's mansion to proclaim his decree quite often, but before, it was just a few pleasantries with Jia She, and he had never directly rejected Jia Zheng like this time.Mother Jia and the others couldn't help feeling very worried, and wanted to call Jia She to go over and ask about something, but unfortunately, Jia She said that she had a headache and felt uncomfortable, and she didn't even give Jia Mu face.

A few days later, the court was over, and it was rare for Jia Amnesty, who was dressed neatly to go to court, hadn't returned to the mansion. The young man who was next to Wang Ziteng who was waiting for him rushed to the Rongguo mansion on horseback, and reported a shocking court incident to Mrs. Wang. Church event.Jia Amnesty, who is now a general of the first rank, said that because of his old age and sickness, he could not bear the heavy burden, so he begged to let his eldest son Jia Lian become a noble.

Mrs. Wang's face was pale with shock at that time, she shook her hands and splashed half of her body with hot tea, but she was just in a daze, unable to speak a word for a long while.If Zhou Rui's family hadn't taken a second look, she would have gone directly to Jia Mu's upper room in such a disheveled and distraught state.

After all, Zhou Rui's family learned the ups and downs of eyebrows and eyes a little more in Wang's house. While he was busy changing his master's clothes and freshening up, he also remembered to send someone to deliver a message to Jia Zheng.Although their master usually doesn't care about things, he is the master of the second room after all, when it comes to big things, he always has to count on one or two.What's more, for such a big matter as Xijue, only he can speak in front of the old lady.

According to legal principles, national laws and family rules are inherited from father to son, and Jia Lian is both a descendant and elder, so Jia She's title should belong to him. Now it's just a matter of finding a reason to pass it on earlier. The only thought was to rely on Jia Mu and use filial piety to force Jia Amnesty to change his mind.

Jia Zheng had a cough for the past few days, and was drinking tea and composing a composition with all the guests in the study. die.He coughed earth-shatteringly for a long while, and went out while his face was still flushed. He arrived much earlier than Mrs. Wang who had washed up carefully.

By the time Mrs. Wang arrived, Jia Zheng had already finished talking with Jia's mother. The mother and son were relatively silent, and the only sound in the huge room was the slight sound of mandarin ducks serving tea.

Before entering the door, Mrs. Wang subconsciously glanced at the maids and women who were far away from the outside. Seeing that the respect and obedience on everyone's faces was the same as before, she walked over the threshold holding the handkerchief in her hand, and saluted Jia Mu sincerely. hello.

Mother Jia nodded, and raised her hand to signal Mrs. Wang to sit under Jia Zheng. After she sat down, she looked at the couple intently for a while, and finally closed her eyes and shook her head and sighed: "You think the old man has always been filial, and he will never disobey him." I am an old lady, but what happened this time is not a matter of our family? Eunuch Xia talked with the Elder for a long time after the edict last time before leaving, could it be that he was against him by reciting poems?"

In all honesty, although Mother Jia preferred the second son, Yifang, and loved Jia Baoyu to the bone, Jia Amnesty and Yifang were also her flesh and blood, and Jia Lian was also the grandson of a direct relative, so she loved them somewhat.Jia Lian's succession to the title was a matter of course, he himself was competitive, and he had a bright future at a young age. For their branch and even the Jia clan, Jia Lian's succession to the title would be beneficial but harmless. There is no objection in my heart.Besides, this matter obviously has the meaning of the sage, how many heads do they have, can they do it right in the same day?

Jia's mother was very clear in her heart, knowing that the matter of letting the prince this time was a certainty, and seeing Jia Zheng and his wife became more and more embarrassing.She had always preferred the second son to have more than one room, and felt that the eldest son was useless and had fallen into the prestige of the ancestors, so she forced them to stay in the Rongxi Hall after the old Duke left, and let Xi Jue's eldest son's family live in the east courtyard.For so many years, she always felt that this arrangement was very appropriate, but at this moment, she really felt a little regretful.

When Jia She took over the throne, Jia Zheng and his wife lived in the Rongxi Hall, and their reputation was not right, but she talked about filial piety, and the higher-ups had a little dislike for Jia She, so naturally no one took care of this kind of family affairs.But when Jia Lian took over the title, it would be difficult for Jia Zheng, as an uncle, to continue occupying the Rongxi Hall. After all, there is no longer a yard suitable for the head of the family in this mansion.Once the yard was changed, Jia Zhengfei became an embarrassing person in this mansion. When he and Jia Baoyu and his son went out to dinner, their status was even worse, even worse than never living in Rongxi Hall. Be careful.

If he had known Jia Lian's ability earlier, please move the real Buddha to give up the title as soon as possible. How could Jia's mother let the second room move into Rongxi Hall, and avoid such an embarrassing incident today, which would cause Jia Zheng and the others to suffer for no reason.

Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang were panic-stricken at the beginning and didn't think carefully. When Jia Mu mentioned it, they recalled it, and their faces turned pale again in an instant.Madam Wang choked and wanted to speak, but Jia Zheng frowned and made up his mind.

He took a deep breath, stood up and saluted, and pleaded in a deep voice: "If you want to come to the palace, there will be a decree soon. Since Lian'er is going to become a prince, it's not good for me as an uncle to live in my nephew's house. Please ask the old man My wife forgives my son for being unfilial, and let me take my wife and children out of the house to live separately, so as not to break the rules and etiquette."

Even though Mrs. Wang knew that she would probably be separated from the Rongguo Mansion when she got married back then, she had been in charge of the mansion for more than ten years, and she had long forgotten about it. Now she heard Jia Zheng mention it, It was like a thunderclap on the ground. When I was terrified, I wanted to speak out to dissuade, but I was a step behind Jia Mu.

Mother Jia's face turned blue this time, and she pointed at Jia Zheng's fingers tremblingly. She almost didn't think about it, so she scolded "Nie Zong", beat her chest and said sadly: "I'm not dead yet, how could you kill me?" The family will be separated, and the ancestors will not tolerate you! Such words are not allowed to be mentioned again!"

After scolding Jia Zheng, Jia's mother felt even more sad.This son is so pedantic, but he doesn't want to think that although he is not a high-ranking official, he is the second master of the Rongguo Mansion, Baoyu is also the young master of the mansion, if they leave the mansion, how will their family deal with themselves.Sighing, Mother Jia's heart was a little more off, and she couldn't help thinking about how to protect the second room more in this unavoidable turmoil.

Although Jia Mu sent all the servants out while Jia Mu was speaking, and Jia Amnesty had already written the excerpt, the matter of asking to be the noble was still spread all over Ning Rong'er's second residence, and the next day, even the people from the Jing family who were not far away got it. The news caused people to panic for a while, and everyone from the master to the slave talked about it.

In the small courtyard in the Northeast, Wang Xue, who heard about this from the subordinates, was shocked but also a little bit afraid. He chanted a few times, and then took his daughter Xue Baochai in his arms and said some heart-to-heart words between mother and daughter.

"Fortunately, my son is stable." Xue Wang said in a low voice with a bit of joy in his brows, "I didn't expect the old man in this mansion to move so fast. He is not yet fifty, and he will pass the seat to his son." , In this way, the two families will have to calculate their own, poor Baoyu is such a good child, it is neither awkward nor embarrassing."

After such a big event happened, seeing that the Rongguo Mansion was about to change, Xue Baochai's face was calm, and now hearing Xue Wang's vague talk about the plan at that time, there was still a trace of just right shallowness. She smiled, but couldn't help but caressed the golden lock hanging inside her coat with one hand.

The mother and daughter were very close, and when Xue Baochai moved, Xue Wangshi naturally noticed it, and the feeling of rejoicing disappeared at once, why not: "Then...the two are always kind, and they said you This gold can only be matched with jade, which is a bit troublesome." If not for this, she would not be so convinced that Jia Baoyu would be her daughter's destined marriage.

The Xue Wang family took this matter very seriously, but Xue Baochai smiled lightly and said softly: "Mom, this is a sign. Which decent family in the world doesn't have a jade. It doesn't count those vulgar things. The precious jade of origin is not limited to this place."

The jade that Jia Baoyu brought with him when he fell into the grass had a good history. Could it be that the jade seal used by His Majesty in the palace is not the most precious jade?Her gold is meant to be matched with jade, and it doesn't necessarily have to be the Jia family's stubborn stone.

Mrs. Xue knew all about her daughter's aspirations for success, but she always had concerns in her heart.Although Xue's family is rich, they are not expensive. If their daughter wants to enter the palace, she must either take the path of small elections like Jia Yuanchun, or rely on relatives to pull her out.My family somehow offended Grandpa Xia in front of the imperial court, so I couldn’t go through the small election, and the girls from the Wang family’s family could not be finished. not on.No matter how talented and beautiful a daughter is, she can't accomplish anything without a ladder.

Xue Wang's face was full of worries, Xue Baochai knew what she was worried about, so he held her hand and persuaded in a low voice: "Mom, don't worry too much about me. I am always my uncle's nephew, my blood and blood. Can you not love me? Even my aunt treats me closer than a daughter."

Although there are many girls in the Wang family, Xue Baochai calculated carefully, but no one is closer to Concubine Shu than her, the royal nephew of the Wang family. In the Jia family, even if the mother really chooses Jia Tanchun, her good aunt will definitely accept it. No such thing.And that Cousin Lian who finally saved the day may not be willing to let the second room produce a nobleman.

The four major families are connected with each other and support each other in many things. It's hard to say who can enter the palace.
