Enter the red building

Back at Xue's house on West Street, Xue Qiu was preparing for the examination in a few days, looking at the Four Books and Five Classics that he had read many times in his hand, he felt bored for no reason.But I knew in my heart that these things were also the core of the imperial examination, and I had to endure it.

Bai Xia ran in and said anxiously: "Master, it's not good. Now everyone in the capital is saying that Jinling's top talent is a hypocrite who actually embezzled the righteous sister's property."

Xue Qiu was not surprised at all, Xue Qiu knew that the Jia family would not easily give up the Lin family's property, but he did not expect it to be such a clumsy way.

Seeing Xue Qiu's not surprised and angry look, Bai Xia asked in confusion, "Why aren't you angry at all, sir?"

Xue Qiu smiled, and continued to look down at the book in his hand, "Is it useful to be angry? They just want to make me notorious, and they have to hand over the Lin family's property due to rumors. Why should I have the same knowledge as them."

Bai Xia didn't know what was going on in Xue Qiu's mind, he only knew that people outside were slandering the uncle, and said anxiously; "Master, you still have to take the imperial examination. They're ruining your reputation, maybe those The examiner directly disqualified you from the exam. What should I do?"

Xue Qiu said with a smile: "You think too much, don't you know where this is?"

"Where is it?" Bai Xia didn't understand.

Xue Qiu said two words coldly, "The capital!" Xue Qiu turned over a page of "The Analects of Confucius" and continued; "Don't other people in the capital know who made such a statement and why they made such a statement? Besides, there are people more powerful than the Jia family, maybe Master Ji Zhou will solve this matter.” After Xue Qiu came to the capital, he has not yet visited Master Ji Zhou.Only then did I know that after Ji Zhou returned to the capital, he directly served as the admiral of the Nine Gates, in charge of guarding and public security in the capital.

Bai Xia didn't pay attention to Xue Qiu's other words, but only heard Mr. Ji Zhou and he understood, and said with a smile, "I'll just say it, how could the uncle not be worried? It turns out that Mr. Ji Zhou is backing us. It's just that after we came to the capital, we still It doesn’t matter if you didn’t visit Lord Ji Zhou, right?”

Xue Qiu was very speechless to Bai Xia, and he didn't want to talk to him, so he waved him out.Xue Qiu thought in his heart that if he wanted to obediently hand over his adoptive father's family property, it would depend on your abilities. If the emperor knew about the Lin family's property, he would only listen to the Jia family's one-sided words.The Jia family's thinking was really simple, and they didn't know that they were already in the state of "cooking oil with fire, and blooming flowers".

The people in the capital are quite familiar with Xue Qiu now, and those who have been through the ages have not all been matched up to now, which really makes the literati and students in the capital admire. The title of the first genius.But what I didn't expect was that it would be rumored that Xue Qiu was a sinister and cunning person who embezzled the family property of his step-sister.Although it is said that rumors only belong to the wise, but following others' opinions has gradually led many people to believe those rumors. They are quite contemptuous and disgusted with the number one talented scholar in Jinling. Some of them were passed down by Jinling students. He was very upset that Xue Qiu was called the number one talented scholar in Jinling.

"I heard that the Jinling talent who gave eternal absolutes is a hypocrite, and he actually embezzled the family property of his sister-in-law. It is really insulting to the gentlemen and loses the face of us literati!"

'Indeed, in vain I admired him very much at the beginning, but I didn't expect him to be such a person, which is really disappointing.Such a person is simply not qualified to participate in the scientific examination with us! "

"Where, that's not the case at all. I heard that the Jia family was unwilling to be reconciled to the loss of the Lin family's property by Mr. Xue Qiu. They held a grudge and wanted Mr. Xue to hand it over. I heard that they are also detaining Lin Ruhai's only daughter. , that is, Mr. Xue's righteous sister."

"What, it's like this? Where did you hear that?"

"That's the truth. Otherwise, how did these things get out? Otherwise, it's all right. Why are you targeting Mr. Xue?"

······

In the face of these rumors, there are still some people who still don't believe it. They think that Xue Qiu must have been slandered by others, or it may belong to the Jia family.No matter what, Xue Qiu's reputation is getting bigger and bigger, and he is well known by everyone.On the other hand, regarding Jia's mansion, some people said that only the two big stone lions at the entrance were clean, but now many people believe that Xue Qiu was slandered by Jia's mansion.

But now Jia's mansion is full of murderous atmosphere, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng are standing in front of the couch, listening to Jia's mother's lecture.Mother Jia asked coldly, "Have you two heard about what happened outside?"

Jia Amnesty shook his head. He had heard a lot of rumors in the capital recently. He didn't know what Jia's mother was referring to, so he bowed and asked, "I don't know what mother is referring to?"

Jia Zheng didn't know either, so he listened carefully.

Jia's mother said coldly: "It's the matter of our Jia's slandering the adopted son of the Lin family." Speaking of which, Jia's mother was very angry and patted the bed.

It was only then that Jia She realized that he knew a thing or two about this matter, but he didn't care, and said, "Mother, these are all rumors. There is no such thing in our Rongfu."

"No? Everyone in the house has spread the word, and they still say no. It was spread by the second family." Jia's mother was annoyed that Jia Amnesty seemed ignorant when she asked, and she was annoyed that the second child, Jia Zheng, didn't understand at all.

When Jia Zheng heard that it was his wife, he repeatedly begged Jia's mother to calm down, "Mother, my son really doesn't know about this. I will definitely ask her when I go back!"

Listening to Jia Zheng's words, Jia's mother sneered, "Ask her? It's funny to think about it or to think about ourselves. You go back and tell her so that she doesn't bother. I have my own opinion on this matter." .”

Only then did Jia Amnesty understand how much the Lin family's property was worth, and felt that it was a bit of a fuss, and said, "Mother, why bother thinking about the Lin family's property."

Jia's mother was very angry at Jia She's saying such a thing in her heart. She thought that when the old Duke was in Jia's house, she said: "My son-in-law only left one jade, and I want to plan for her. You can't ask outsiders to take over Yu'er."

Jia Zheng acted like a filial son, and comforted him: "Mother, don't worry, the son will definitely not let the niece be wronged."

Jia Amnesty also expressed his position again and again.

In the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Qian Que told Lin Daiyu about the rumors in the mansion, and Lin Daiyu was very angry that these people ruined Xue Qiu's reputation.It's not that she doesn't know the purpose of spreading these things, and she feels very guilty. Her grandmother's family actually did such a thing. This is a serious blow to her brother who is about to take part in the test. She understands the reason why three people become tigers .

Qian Que was also very shameless towards the Jia family, but she could only comfort Lin Daiyu, "Miss, don't worry too much. Rumors are rumors after all."

Lin Daiyu didn't speak, but what she was thinking about was what she should do for her brother.

Everyone should support Shijia!
