[Red Chamber] Jia Huan's Army

To be honest, Jia Huan himself was not very willing to live in the palace for a while.Although there may be no way to rest in Jia's mansion, he is still very comfortable in his own yard, and Tanchun and others visit him from time to time.If you go to the palace, not only do you have to abide by all kinds of rules, but you probably don't even have anyone to talk to.Although he didn't want to, Jia Huan was also a knowledgeable person. This kind of thing that not only showed the fourth prince's love but also showed that he was valued, could not refute the opponent's face.

Because the injury on his arm had already healed, Jia Huan decided to go directly from the palace to take up his post in the military camp, so before going to the palace, Jia Huan had to bid farewell to the old lady Mrs. Wang and Jia Zheng according to the rules.

The old lady was still so kind-hearted, she stroked Jia Huan's hair lovingly, and said: "In a blink of an eye, you are all so old, and it's time to go out and see."

Jia Huan lowered his head and got goosebumps from the old lady's cool hand.Jia Huan held back his discomfort, and replied obediently: "It is thanks to the blessings of our ancestors that we, the ineffective descendants, have the opportunity to see the world."

Jia Mu smiled and said, "You can't tell it on weekdays, and our Huan'er is also a mouth smeared with honey."

Although Jia Huan was impatient with such hypocrisy, he had to coax the old lady well so that his mother-in-law could live more comfortably.Therefore, he said with a sincere face: "The old ancestor must believe in his grandson, this is what he said in his heart."

Then seeing Mrs. Wang, who was different from the expressionless face in the past, seemed to want to say something, Jia Huan took over the conversation first and asked: "This time, my grandson was lucky enough to live in the palace. I wonder if there is anything my wife can entrust to the elder sister?" of?" This is the main purpose of Jia Huan's farewell today.Jia Huan had expected that Mrs. Wang and Jia's mother would entrust him with something for Yuan Chun, so it would be better if he offered to sell it first.

Sure enough, upon hearing Jia Huan's mention, the faces of both Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang became softer.In front of Jiamu, Mrs. Wang has always been silent, so Jiamu said with a smile: "It's hard for you child to think of your eldest sister. It doesn't matter, but your eldest sister is not in the house every year, which makes people think about it." Hurry up, just write a letter." After that, Jia Mu paused, sighed, and continued: "You didn't remember when your elder sister entered the palace. After all these years, you can see the brothers of your mother's family. I must be happy too, if it is possible, you sisters and brothers will be closer. I am afraid that other daughters in the family will not be as blessed as your elder sister."

Jia Huan knew that Mother Jia was beating him, so he agreed with a low eyebrow, but he didn't think so.Speaking of which, although his own elder sister married far away, she still has the title of princess anyway.I thought it was a blessing back then, but now I think it is just a misfortune. Yuanchun went there in his 20s, and Tanchun may not be able to return to his hometown in his eternal life, and he doesn't even have a family to support him.For a truly good family who loves their daughter, who would be willing to send their pampered daughter to the palace? Only those who are greedy for glory and wealth will do so.Jia Huan secretly decided that this time, no matter what, he would have to see Tanchun's consent to marry with his own eyes.

After saying goodbye to the women's family, Jia Huan had to go to Jia Zheng to say goodbye.As usual, it was in the study, but Jia Zheng's attitude this time was much more interesting.He didn't reprimand Jia Huan blindly, but he didn't give Jia Huan a good look either. He just gave Jia Huan a few words of admonishment and let Jia Huan go, feeling a bit embarrassed.

When Jia Zheng saw his obedient son, he was really embarrassed.Speaking of which, I have been an official for so many years, but I am not as fast as Huangkou Xiaoer who is so young in half a year.Although there are differences in civil and martial arts, but the son of the sixth rank Lao Tzu is a bit ugly.When Jia Zheng first heard the news of his son's promotion, his face turned green, especially since his troubled son went to the camp in the suburbs of Beijing without telling him, and he didn't know how this rebellious son did it. It's simply unfilial.He had to put on a proud face of my family when his colleagues talked about it, which really made Jia Zheng panic. He even felt that his colleagues around him praised Jia Huan openly, but secretly mocked himself as an old man.When Jia Zheng saw the bloody hole on Jia Huan's left arm with his own eyes, the anger and jealousy turned into guilt with a hint of relief.In short, it was so complicated that Jia Zheng didn't want to see this miserable son now.

Of course Jia Huan didn't know the various entanglements in Jia Zheng's mind, and he didn't care about today's abnormality, so he took the packed luggage and got into the carriage that came to pick up the man from the palace.

When he arrived at the palace, he was told that he was staying in the palace for a while, but it was not the case.It turned out that Mo Lian also considered Jia Huan's rest, and decided to rest in the palace for one night and take him to the hot spring village in the north tomorrow.When Jia Huan heard this, his brows were filled with joy.He has never been in a hot spring when he grows up.It seems that although Mo Lian is a prince, he is indifferent, but seeing how he treats others, it is really ironic, no wonder he can go to the end.Jia Huan was even more grateful for this.

Just as he was thinking, he saw Mo Lian slowly walking over from a distance, accompanied by a few servants.The man was dressed in the vermilion prince's uniform, which made his face look like a crown of jade, but his usual serious expression and thin lips pursed turned the handsome young man into a high-ranking fourth son of the emperor.Jia Huan saw that although the man was thin and thin, his back was straight when he walked out of the wind and snow, as if he alone could shoulder all the responsibilities in the world. honed out".

When Mo Lian approached, this aura of admiration disappeared suddenly, and Jia Huan still couldn't recover.

"Why are you standing here?" Mo Lian was already used to Jia Huan's distraction, which often couldn't keep up with the rhythm, so he didn't say much.

"Just as I was about to enter the house, I saw His Highness came back, so I waited here." Jia Huan regained his composure and saluted before explaining.

Mo Lian nodded and walked into the main room first.Jia Huan followed behind, looking carefully at the main hall of the palace. It was indeed like the fourth prince, Mo Lian, restrained and elegant, and there were no exquisite gadgets in the whole room, but at first glance, it was arranged just right. A little deserted, without a trace of humanity.But thinking about the luxurious Rongxi Hall, it is actually the same.

"How's the injury?"

"I've stopped talking, and it will be fine after a while. I also want to thank you for the medicinal materials rewarded by Your Highness. The effect is better than that in the mansion." Jia Huan said hastily after hearing this.Before when he was injured and just woke up and his mind was not clear, he could still play coquettishly with Mo Lian to please Mo Lian, but now that the injury is healed, if he acts disrespectful again, he might die somehow.

Mo Lian looked at Jia Huan's smiling expression for some reason and felt a little uncomfortable. If it wasn't for his own identity, Jia Huan's temperament would never have saved him with his own body. There is no escape from mutual use.At first, I thought that Jia Huan was a well-informed person with a clear goal, and it was best to win him over, but now it seems that this kind of knowledge and interest really makes people angry.Of course, although Mo Lian was unhappy, he was not someone who would vent his anger casually, especially when facing such a young man who had just saved him, he just said, "You don't have to be like this, you deserve it."

Of course, Mo Lian is not a very easy-going person, even if he doesn't want to vent his anger, it's always okay to tease him a bit.So he stood up, with an extremely upright face, and said, "Take off your clothes, let me see."

Jia Huan first looked at Mo Lian in disbelief for a while, to confirm that the other party was not joking, and replied with some embarrassment: "That's unnecessary, it's just a wound, so as not to stain His Highness's eyes."

Mo Lian did not refute, and looked straight at Jia Huan, showing no intention of giving in.Jia Huan was very embarrassed, curled his lips helplessly, and slowly untied his belt, anyway, he was a man, and there was a lot of meat at a glance, no matter how he thought about it, he felt that the fourth prince had been stimulated by something.

When Jia Huan unbuttoned his belt and stretched out his arm, Mo Lian was convinced that he was really healed. Looking at the new pink tender flesh on his white arm, Mo Lian felt a little uncomfortable , this scar should be left behind.Mo Lian nodded expressionlessly, and said, "The wound has healed well, but the skin is a little tender, and the small body can't help but practice."

Jia Huan became angry when he heard it, look, is this what the upright and boring fourth prince said.What does it mean to have a small body and can't help but practice, it's not that the young master is desperate to block the wolf's teeth, what is thin skin and tender meat, the young master is brought out of the mother's womb, no matter how hard you practice, you can't get black.Of course, Jia Huan only dared to say these words in his heart. Although his face was a bit distorted, he still replied with a smirk: "Your Highness is joking."

Jia Huan thought he was quite calm, but his expression of daring to be angry and dare not speak out could not escape Mo Lian's eyes, so the fourth prince, who was bound to revenge, regained his mental balance.He didn't continue to tease, but instead talked about Hot Spring Zhuangzi.It's a pity that Jia Huan, who was being teased, didn't realize Mo Lian's sinister intentions from the beginning to the end, and could only blame Mo Lian's serious face for being too deceptive.

When it came to going to the hot spring village to recuperate, Jia Huan asked curiously, "I don't know what to do with His Highness's business?"

"Father said that I was frightened and granted a few days' vacation."

Jia Huan was startled, it was the end of the year, and the evaluation of officials from all over the country was going on, and it was also the busiest time for the officials where the fourth prince was.Giving Mo Lian a vacation at this time, how can this be sympathetic, isn't it taking away Mo Lian's power in a disguised form?Jia Huan also didn't care about tidying up the clothes he just put on, and asked in surprise, "Your Highness, are you not in a hurry?"

"Don't think too wildly," Mo Lian patted Jia Huan on the shoulder, and comforted him, "This is indeed due to my father's consideration, and most of it is for my own good."

Jia Huan was still puzzled, could he not be in a hurry.Not to mention anything else, let’s just say that the fourth prince was saved this time, and Yuan Chun is the concubine of the fourth prince. It seems that there are people from the fourth prince inside and outside. No one is clear about the petty actions among the princes now, if the fourth prince has made any mistakes and cannot get along with him, even Aunt Zhao, Tanchun and even the entire Jia family will be implicated.Although, in my memory, the fourth prince was the last person to be crowned the Great Treasure, but who knows that everything has changed so much now, is this memory accurate?

Seeing that Jia Huan was really anxious, Mo Lian had no choice but to explain the matter clearly: "The assessment of the Ministry of Officials has always been complicated by factions, and I don't want to be a living target there. Don't worry, I really can't lose."

After hearing this, Jia Huan understood.Thinking about it, when these princes didn't make such a big move a few years ago, it might be a good thing to work in the official department.Now that their actions are so big that they dare to plan to kill their brothers, the evaluation and transfer of officials from the Ministry of Officials must have a hand in it, so Mo Lian has become a big villain.Only then did Jia Huan nod in reassurance, and put aside all the scary thoughts before.

In fact, apart from these, the emperor's tactful dismissal of Mo Lian's appointment in the Ministry of Officials also had a tentative meaning.If all these restless sons were staring at that position, and Mo Lian had no idea at all, no one would believe it.So now the Holy Majesty wants to take this opportunity to take a good look at whether this son really has no thoughts, or whether his thoughts are hidden too well.So Mo Lian simply took Jia Huan to Zhuangzi, ignoring such a mess in the imperial city.As a father and a son, in this respect, I am afraid that the royal family is really unique.

Seeing Jia Huan's sudden realization, Mo Lian shook his head helplessly. This kid really isn't suitable for an official career. I just hope that he won't let him down.
