The Rebirth of the Red Chamber Xue Pan married Lin Daiyu

In Kyoto, Xu Qian received a letter from Xue Pan and went to visit Liu Hong with a name card from Xue's family.

After reading Xue Pan's letter, Liu Hong recalled the nephew he had recognized in Jinling, and couldn't help being puzzled.The Xue family heard that there are two big backers in the capital, namely the Jia family of the Rongguo Mansion and the Wang family of the nine provinces.

Liu Hong didn't agree or refuse, but asked Xu Qian to go back first and wait for the news.After Xu Qian resigned, he asked his subordinates to inquire about the news of the Wang family, Jia family, Shi family and Xue family.

He has been an official in Jinling for many years, so he naturally knows the four major families in Jinling very well.It's just that I don't know what happened in the past six months.

In the evening, Liu Hong got the news.

Nothing happened to the Shi family, but Mrs. Jia Zheng's accompanying roommate and his wife were sent to the Yamen for charging usury in the name of the owner and stealing the owner's property. The accompanying room's son-in-law was also wanted.But from the servants of the Jia family, I heard that Mrs. Jia Zheng of the Jia family had surrendered the housekeeping rights, and went to worship the Buddha in a deserted courtyard at home, without seeing outsiders.

Liu Hong has been in the officialdom for many years with ups and downs, and there is still something he doesn't understand.What is the crime of accompanying the room? It is obviously Jia Zheng's wife who committed the crime and was found out.

And Jia Zheng's wife, and Mrs. Xue's family are sisters.

The news from the Xue family is that the Xue family missed the quota of the imperial merchants. The Xue family's lumber business was also pocketed by several shopkeepers.

Liu Hong looked at the news, and then looked at Xue Pan's letter, and felt that the Xue family probably used a trick to get out of their shells.

It can be seen from this that either the Xue family did not trust the Jia family and felt that the Jia family was greedy for money, or the relationship between the Jia family and the Xue family broke down, and the Xue family wanted to find a new backer.

A breakdown in the relationship is unlikely, as the Jia family and the Xue family are still in frequent contact.The Xue family left the capital and went to the Jia family to bid farewell.Besides, the Wang family is in full swing.

Then it should be that the Xue family doesn't trust the Jia family.

After all, the Jia family has always been headed by Jia Zheng's wife.The housewife would steal the property of the house and give loan sharks, so greedy for money, it is really untrustworthy.

Liu Hong also looked down on the Jia family.

The Jia family relied on the favor of their ancestors and in-laws to gain a foothold in Kyoto, and none of their children became successful.However, Jia's family is a well-established noble family, and Liu Hong cannot be offended.

The Wang family is no longer in the capital, and has a close relationship with the Jia family, and the Shi family is separated from the Xue family after all.

In this way, the Xue family didn't know anyone else in the capital, so it was normal to find him.

Since the Xue family is rich, since the golden cicada has escaped its shell, the amount of money used by the timber company that has come to rely on him must not be a small amount.Thirty percent of dry stocks is really a lot.

Moreover, he observed Xue Pan, not like a thing in a pool, he really admired Xue Pan.

Now, Xue Pan trusts him so much and votes with his wealth, will he agree or not?

Liu Hong summoned Liu Dong, his confidant retainer.Liu Dong is the son of Liu Hong's family. He grew up with Liu Hong since he was a child and is Liu Hong's book boy.Later, Liu Hong returned his deed of prostitution to him, and Liu Dong is now a commoner.

The businesses in the Liu family are all under the name of his cousin, and most of his own businesses are under the name of his wife.Now that Xue Pan came to vote, Liu Hong decided to put Xue Pan's business under Liu Dong's name.

Liu Dong's parents and brothers are all his domestic servants, and the contract of prostitution is held in his hands.Although Liu Dong's child is free, he is accompanied by his own child.Their family lives by their own family, and there are three generations of them. The decades-old friendship is the most heartfelt.

Those who are interested will know that the business under Liu Dong's name is actually standing behind him.He is now the servant of the Ministry of Rites, and he is already from the second rank. This business can still be protected by himself.

However, Liu Hong felt that Xue Pan still had too little experience.

The correct approach is that Xue Pan should find someone he can absolutely control and trust, put the business under his name, and then ask himself to be the backstage.

Like what Xue Pan is doing now, he is not afraid, will he swallow his business?Fortunately, I am not such a person.

Liu Hong didn't know that Xue Pan wanted to earn a quick sum of money, and to guard against the Jia family, he must not let anyone know that he was involved in this business.But it is true that Xue Pan is too young to think about it.

Now that Liu Hong agreed, Xu Qian and Zhang Fa went to Liu's house to go through the business procedures, and Liu Xue and his family signed the contract.In the official procedures, Liu Dong's name was used.

Xu Qian sent a letter back to Xue Pan with the results of the processing.

Xue Pan felt relieved when he received Xu Qian's letter.At the same time, Xue Pan also received another letter from Kyoto.

Jia Lian wrote him a letter saying that Sister Feng gave birth safely, a healthy boy weighing five catties and six liang.

When Xue Pan received the letter, he was sincerely happy for Jia Lian and Sister Feng.In this life, many things are changing. I hope that the Jia family can escape the fate of seizing the title, and I also hope that my aunt's plan will fail, and Jia Baoyu will not be able to get the title of the Jia family.

What Jia Lian didn't say was that when Sister Feng gave birth, a monk quietly appeared outside the delivery room together.

Jia Lian wanted to go up to ask what was going on, but he couldn't get to the monk.Jia Amnesty stopped Jia Lian and drove all the maidservants out of Sister Feng's yard except those in the delivery room.

Following Sister Feng's cries of pain, the midwife came out and said that Sister Feng had dystocia, and that she might die twice.Jia Lian didn't care about the rule that men can't enter the delivery room, so she went into the delivery room to accompany Sister Feng, holding Sister Feng's hand with her hand, and kept cheering Sister Feng on.

And Jia Amnesty was waiting outside the delivery room, pacing back and forth anxiously.

Jia She suddenly saw the scarlet-headed monk reciting Buddhist scriptures, and the lame Taoist chanting Taoist hymns. A layer of golden light appeared from them, protecting the delivery room.

Jia Amnesty seemed to hear a woman's scream, which seemed to come from a very far away place, very piercing, mixed with Sister Feng's cry of pain.Jia She was dizzy for a while, the door of the delivery room opened, and Sister Feng gave birth safely.

When Jia Amnesty regained his composure and looked carefully, the golden light had disappeared, and so had the monks and Taoists.

Later, Jia She asked Jia Lian if he saw a layer of golden light. Jia Lian said that in the delivery room, he didn't see any of them, and he didn't hear any screams except Sister Feng.Jia She was thoughtful.

Jia Lian said with a smile: "Our family said that Yuanchun was born on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Baoyu was born with jade in his mouth. He has a great fortune. I think my son is a great fortune. There are monks and Taoists who come to protect him. , is not a great fortune!"

Jia Amnesty said firmly: "If you want your son to live, you must not say it again. Fortunately, when the golden light appeared, only you and I saw it. , Could it be someone like us who said it? Wang is just a woman who dares to spread the word because she doesn’t understand the affairs of the officialdom.”

Jia Lian broke out in a cold sweat.

After Jia Amnesty finished speaking, he went to clean up Jia Lian.Fortunately, there were not many maidservants in Sister Feng's yard, and they were quite busy, so they didn't see the monks appearing suddenly, so Jia She said that he had invited the monks here, and took advantage of Sister Feng's chance of giving birth, and gave them a reward. Threatened again, and shut up all the people who saw one monk and one.

Jinling.

Xue Pan handed over the books Lin Ruhai gave him to Mr. Lu, and asked Mr. Lu to select the content involved in the boy's test, explain it to himself and Lu An, and he often studied it.In February of the following year, Mr. Lu said that Xue Pan and Lu An were ready to take the county examination.

Seeing that Xue Hong was not participating, Lu An couldn't help asking about it in private.

Baochai was a little lonely, and forced a smile: "My knowledge is not enough, I will participate in it later."

Lu An was puzzled and said: "Xue Hong, your knowledge is not enough, then Xue Pan and I are even less qualified."

Mr. Lu happened to come back, and when he heard it, he said to Lu An: "Xue Hong's ambition is not here, the Xue family has their own arrangements for him. You study hard, your "Book of Changes" is not very solid, although you did not do well in the imperial examination. There are many, but just in case, you go to read it again."

Lu An is good at everything else, only "Book of Changes", he can't learn it by life and death. Hearing what his grandfather said, he can only bow his head and accept it.

He also couldn't see that Xue Hong should have a reason not to take the imperial examination.Since he didn't say it, he didn't ask any more.He was just dumb, not stupid.

The county test needs to take the test in the county or city where the domicile is located.

Since both Xue Pan and Lu An were originally from Jinling, they didn't have to rush to take the exam in Jinling.

The county examination requires five people who take the examination at the same time to join each other, and needs a guarantor from the county to take the examination.Xue Pan didn't need to do these trivial matters in person, Xu Sheng arranged them properly.It's just that Xue Pan and Lu An came out together and wrote a five-child mutual insurance policy when they got married.

When the time came, Xue Pan and Lu An took the test baskets prepared by Mrs. Xue and were sent to the door of the examination room by the Xue family's carriage, and went to take the test with the candidates.There were five county examinations this time, and the content of the examinations were mainly stereotyped essays, post poems, scriptures, verses, and so on.

One month before the exam, Mr. Lu had given special training to Xue Pan and Lu An according to the schedule and content of the exam, and they all followed the exam.Therefore, Xue Pan was quite adaptable, and his performance was not affected by the situation on the spot.

After the exam, Xue Pan felt that he performed well.At the very least, I have answered all the questions on the paper.However, Xue Pan had no idea. Since studying, Xue Pan has always been with Lu An and Baochai, and has never had contact with other students.There is a strong style of writing in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many scholars, Xue Pan can't compare it.He didn't know what level his own level belonged to among the students.

When the county tried the case, Xue Pan mentioned that he reserved a room in a nearby restaurant and asked Fu'er to watch the list.Both Xue Pan and Lu An are on the list, with Lu An sixth and Xue Pan eighth.

In April, take part in the government examination. This time, there are three examinations, divided into three examinations: post scriptures, essays, and policy theory. Those who pass the examination are called Tongsheng.The content of the exam is also related to the Four Books and Five Classics, so it is not particularly difficult.

Xue Pan and Lu An also passed, and obtained the qualifications of Tongsheng.This time Lu An No. 14, Xue Pan No. 20 two, among all the people who participated in the government examination, they belonged to the middle level.

Next, they worked hard and took part in the hospital examination.This time, the exams will be invigilated by teachers from various provinces. The exams will be divided into a main exam and a re-examination.

This time the exam was a bit risky, Lu An was fine, his grades were average, but Xue Pan was at the bottom of the list.However, he finally passed the exam and became two freshly released scholars.

Scholars have left the class of ordinary people and belonged to the class of "scholars" among scholars, farmers, businessmen and commerce.Scholars can be exempted from duty tax, and they are called students.If you don't kneel when you see an official, if you break the law, you need to report to the official to deal with it, and you will not be punished like ordinary people. (Note 1)

In other words, from this moment on, Xue Pan and Lu An already belonged to the ruling class of the Daqing Dynasty, although they were still at the bottom of the ruling class.
