Red Mansions Are Floating Clouds

She guards, and when Baoyu and Daiyu get married, Baoyu can live a stable life even if he does not become an official.

Jia's mother made up her mind to ask Jia Lian to take care of Daiyu Fuling when she returned to her hometown. In addition, Baoyu was required to accompany Baoyu. Ling went to Suzhou, and outsiders should know that Baoyu and Daiyu's marriage has been decided, and there is no need for others to kiss

Within two days, the imperial court officially announced the news of Lin Ruhai's death. Because Lin Ruhai "died in the line of duty" and couldn't even find his body, the emperor specially conferred him the title of Hai Guogong in recognition of Zhongliang. , with all my sorrow

In addition to the officials of the Ministry of Rites and King Beijing who came to Jia's mansion to make an order, an incense table was set up in the main hall of the main courtyard, and the middle door was wide open to welcome the messenger to come in. The Lin family's situation is special, there is only one underage orphan girl, so there is only Daiyu alone. Kneeling alone to receive the decree

The king of Beijing Jing came here because he did not want to drink wine. He had been thinking about Daiyu because of that poem a long time ago, and he also heard from Baoyu's servant that Daiyu is a beautiful one, and his heart itch was unbearable. It's just that the king of Beijing already has a regular wife, and Lin Daiyu has an extraordinary background and can't commit herself to being a concubine, so she has been holding on to it. Therefore, he can marry her as his side concubine, and such a philanthropic person has always kept a side concubine for this reason.

Daiyu was supposed to be wearing a heavy filial piety, but the person who passed the decree represented the emperor. Wearing filial piety is disrespectful, so she only wore a beige white dress with tangled lotus flowers and a hairpin of suet and white jade lotus on her head.

The king of Beijing Jing saw that Lin Daiyu was really beautiful, and the beauties he had seen in the past were not worth mentioning in front of her. He also saw that although her face was sad, her actions were graceful and natural, she was not like Jia Baoyu. The paper beauty that the boy said would fall when the wind blows, King Bei Jing seems to be satisfied, but it is a pity that the beauty is too old and needs to wait patiently. General

After Daiyu knelt down, the officials of the Ministry of Rituals opened the imperial decree and read it aloud. The words in front of it were just some clichés praising loyal ministers. It’s not easy to live like this. After reading a long imperial decree, Daiyu hurriedly called Long Live to accept the decree.

Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian went up to greet all the decree officials to sit down and have tea. Daiyu had already received the decree and went back to the inner courtyard.

Because Daiyu was the only official in the Lin family, she had to go to the palace to kowtow to thank the saint, so Daiyu hurriedly changed her dress and went to the palace to thank her. Although Daiyu has traveled here for several years, her concept of dignity and inferiority is still very weak, so she doesn't feel panic when she enters the palace alone.

For a while, Daiyu went back to Jia's mansion and asked Jia's mother to send the imperial decree back to Lin's family for enshrining in the ancestral hall. Because the Qin Tianjian chose three days later for the funeral and sent the obituary, all the things for the funeral were not prepared, so Jia's mother ordered Jia Lian Sister Feng went to the Lin family to take care of things together with a few stewards of the Jia family.

Sister Feng had held Qin Keqing's grand funeral, and she thought she had experience, so she went to Lin's house with Daiyu without refusing.

The brigade went to the Lin family in a mighty way. After hearing the news, Steward Lin and Nanny Song rushed out to welcome them. When they learned that the emperor issued a decree to make the master Hai Guogong, the two couldn't help but burst into tears when they were relieved.

Only Aunt Qin ate fast and recited Buddhism for a long time. At this time, she heard that Lin Ruhai was dead, so she simply became a layman, but she didn't lose her hair.

Three days later, the funeral will be held and the news of the obituary will be delivered. There are many things to be busy. The Lin family does not have many hands.

Daiyu couldn't stop her, so she had to quietly order Housekeeper Lin and Nanny Song to secure the important places and not allow people from Jia's family to move around. Because of the funeral, she also ordered to put valuables into the warehouse and clean out another place for the funeral. Sister Feng's living, sitting and lying down

For a while, Jia Lian called Steward Lin to ask questions, and Sister Feng asked Nanny Song to lead the way around the Lin residence, and Daiyu asked her cronies to follow them, so she only took Zijuan to the ancestral hall.

After Daiyu enshrined the imperial decree in the ancestral hall, she walked to the Qingyan Building where the books were stored at the back. The gatekeeper was still the very old man. The other places seemed to be occupied by magpies and doves. Only here was quieter. Daiyu let Zijuan go outside. Wait, go in and walk around by yourself

The ground was cleaned clean, and the air smelled of books. Daiyu walked slowly, thinking about what happened these days, she was still much luckier than the original owner, and she was always able to avert danger

Daiyu was very relieved to think that her father did not die as early as in the original book, but she didn't know when her father would come back safely. Thinking of how many people would be scared by Lin Ruhan's appearance, Daiyu couldn't help smiling happily

When she was just fantasizing, Daiyu's eyes flashed, a man in a white gown and holding a folding fan descended from the sky and landed lightly in front of her. In his early twenties, Fengshen is handsome, and when he smiles with a folding fan in his hand, he is like a hundred flowers blooming

Before Daiyu could ask her a question, another person fell in front of her in a fraction of the time, and this person was Su Yunheng, the son of Duke Ding who had met once before. Daiyu felt relieved and took a step forward to salute. Su Yunheng and the white-clothed The men also paid back the gift

When Daiyu was about to thank Su Yunheng for sending the letter in advance, Su Yunheng said first: "Our two families are family friends, so you don't have to be so polite, you can just call me brother."

Daiyu called out Brother Su Shi as she said, and Su Yunheng said again: "This is Cheng Mengxing, the leader of the Cao Gang, and now he is a fifth-rank government official conferred by the imperial court."

Daiyu called him Mr. Cheng, Cheng Mengxing shook his head and said, "You call him Brother Su Shi, but you call me Mr. Cheng? No, no, you have to call me Brother Cheng."

Seeing that he was serious, Daiyu had no choice but to change his name to Brother Cheng, but it is not easy for this person to be the leader of the Cao Gang at such a young age. From his appearance, he looks more like a gentle scholar, but unexpectedly he is a martial artist

Cheng Mengxing put away the fan and touched the things on his body, and took out a palm-sized magnifying glass from his arms, and handed it to Daiyu: "There is nothing to give you, this mirror can burn ants under the sun, here it is Let's play." This magnifying glass is made of crystal, and the handle is an exquisite ivory carving, inlaid with jewels. Cheng Mengxing will occasionally scoop it out and burn ants to relieve boredom when someone is waiting outside the hospital.

In ancient times, magnifying glasses were all made of flawless crystals, which were expensive, so Daiyu refused to accept it, but she couldn't accept Mengxing's enthusiasm. The things Daiyu wore were all women's, and most of them had emblems. It is inconvenient to give it away, so he said to Cheng Mengxing: "I will embroider a purse later and give it to Brother Cheng. I hope you don't want to dislike it." Cheng Mengxing was very happy and nodded again and again.

Su Yunheng couldn't help secretly regretting that he forgot to give the meeting gift before, and let Cheng Mengxing get a purse first, it's really unreasonable!

Because Daiyu asked Su Yunheng why he came here, Su Yunheng said: "This time Fuling returned to his hometown, besides the officials from the Ministry of Rites, the emperor also ordered me to bring a team of guards to protect him. You don't need it."

Daiyu was inexplicably relieved when she heard that he was also going with her.

I only heard Su Yunheng say again: "There is one more thing I haven't told you, I hope you will forgive me" and said to the side: "You two come out!"

In front of Daiyu, two girls in gray dresses suddenly appeared, and they saluted Su Yunheng as soon as they landed

In just a short while, four people fell from the sky, and Daiyu was no stranger to it. Su Yunheng explained: "These two are your secret guards, and they have been by your side these days."

Daiyu couldn't help being embarrassed when she heard this, she wondered in her heart that she would be seen by others when she couldn't take a bath, but she couldn't ask

Because Su Yunheng's expression was full of apology, Daiyu hurriedly said: "What did Brother Su Shi say? Am I a person who doesn't know what is good or bad? Thank you so much, Brother Su Shi before it's too late!"

Only then did Su Yunheng heave a sigh of relief, and said: "Since that's the case, I will give these two people to you. They have some martial arts and can protect you personally."

Daiyu hesitated for a moment, seeing the two girls looking at her with complacency, she nodded.

Su Yunheng said again: "Going back to Suzhou by boat, they are inconvenient to move in the dark, so as not to be discovered, why not send them to Jia's mansion tomorrow in the name of my mother?"

Daiyu nodded in agreement

Seeing Su Yunheng's thoughtful arrangement, Cheng Mengxing couldn't help snickering, and interrupted: "I'm going to Suzhou this time, so why do I need these two female guards?" Chi Xiao and Chengying immediately glared at him, and Cheng Mengxing said I dare not speak out

After the discussions were over, Daiyu was afraid that Zijuan would come in, so she said her goodbyes and left Qingyan Tower

Cheng Mengxing saw that Daiyu was gone, Fang tutted and said, "No wonder such a cold-faced gentleman like you has turned into soft fingers. My sister is not only beautiful, but also not as shy as those young ladies. It's really rare!"

Su Yunheng gave him a sideways glance, and said coldly: "You are not from the Lin family, so don't flirt with your relatives!" He quietly left the Qingyan Tower first, and Cheng Mengxing hurriedly followed

Everyone went back to Jia's mansion that day, and they just waited to pack their luggage and stay at Lin's house the next day until the end of dan.

Housekeeper Lin and Nanny Song naturally took this opportunity to tidy up the mansion. They changed all the expensive and conspicuous decorations, replaced the brightly colored curtains and curtains with plain colors, and replaced the lanterns with white ones. The accountant of Songyintang and the Qingyan Building have been assigned appropriate manpower to roughly clean it up. It is already after the second watch, but the housekeeper Lin is still not at ease, so he summons the stewards of the mansion and reiterates that if he hears unreasonable demands, he will take "non-discipline." Violent non-cooperation" method to deal with (to be continued, you are welcome to tweet
