Aristocratic family's career in the Red Chamber

If it weren't for asking for help from others, why would Jia Hu put down his face and beg his apprentice Youhao so much.Not only did Tu Youhao dislike Jia Hu, but Jia Hu also didn't like Tu Youhao, the titular "master" in his heart.

Speaking of this, Jia Hu simply put away his hypocritical smile, and sneered at Tu Youhao's complacent look as if he had won him over, "Fourth prince, the emperor ordered me to go with Han Yan." Accompany you to overcome difficulties, but the reality is that Han Yan and I have been staying in the other side room, and there is no reality of company at all. At the beginning, Han Yan and I were not well, but now we are much better. The prince is waiting in front of you, serving tea and water, serving soup and medicine, and please don't refuse the fourth prince!"

As soon as the words came out, Tu Youhao was stunned for a moment, and even Han Yan who came behind was also stunned there, and when he recovered, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Jia Hu, do you know what you are talking about?"

Tu Youhao also sized Jia Hu up and down suspiciously. Jia Hu's face remained unchanged, as if he hadn't seen the bewildered faces of the two of them, and said: "The emperor's order must not be violated, it's just that there is nothing you can do ahead of time. Now I and Han Yan is getting better, so naturally I dare not neglect the emperor's orders. It is only right that Han Yan and I come to serve you."

It was as if Han Yan had swallowed a Coptis chinensis, all the features on his face were crowded together, he couldn't believe it and resisted in surprise, not to mention how weird it was.Tu Youhao stared at Jia Hu for a long time, pondered for a while, and suddenly sneered, "No matter how high-sounding your words are, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is you who want to come to my side, and you want me to be your flag." , so that those palace people dare not neglect you, right? Jia Hu, your wishful thinking is really good, then I am a fool, how can you be sure that I will fulfill your wish?" It seems to have discovered Jia Hu. He squinted at Jia Hu like a handle, full of provocation and malice.

These days, Tu Youhao stayed alone in this room, suffering from pain and suffering. What he could do every day was to look at the outside world through the window. As for Jia Hu’s room, he knew without looking at it. It is absolutely impossible for the servants with red tops and white to serve them with all their heart, not to mention that he has seen several times that the eunuchs carrying food boxes are always late to deliver food to them.Every time Tu Youhao sees such a scene, he feels an indescribable joy in his heart. Although he is lying here alone, suffering from illness, there is still someone more unlucky than him, isn't there?

He had always disliked Jia Hu, now, why did Jia Hu come here to beg him?Still refused to tell the truth, beating around the bush.He doesn't know if he can survive this illness, why should he go against his will to help him when he is about to die? !

Han Yan was a little moved.These days, they have been neglected. Although Tu Youhao is not doing well, he is also a serious master. If he wants to be with him, those slaves dare not go too far, right?Among other things, at least the food, soup and medicine should be delivered by hint?Compared with his own name, it seems that it is no big deal for this short figure to serve Tu Youhao.In short, alive, there is hope for everything.Dead, but nothing left.Although Han Yan, who had witnessed the death of several brothers, sisters, and cousins ​​in his family's Hou Mansion, was young, he could see this very clearly.

Immediately he smiled, and said: "The fourth prince misunderstood, Jia Hu didn't mean that, we really wanted to come and accompany the fourth prince. Not to mention the emperor's fate, we also had a fever, and the blisters on our bodies We are also very clear about the itching in the bones. The fourth prince stayed in the room alone and felt unwell for a moment. How could he recover so quickly? With us by his side, let’s not talk about anything else, just talk to you and relieve boredom OK."

But Tu Youhao looked at Han Yan sarcastically, and sneered, "I've been with you for so long, Han Yan, this is the first time I've discovered that you have such a good mouth, you can say black things into white things. I'm surprised , Han Yan, when you were kicked into the pit by me and cried so much that you cried for your mother, didn’t you just pretend?”

Hitting people is not a slap in the face, Tu Youhao only picked these embarrassing things that Han Yanyong didn't want to mention again.Han Yan's face instantly turned red.

Tu Youhao sneered, leaned against the head of the bed, glanced at the two of them, sneered, and took them back again, looking at the curtain on the top of the bed with a smile on his face .

Jia Hu knew that it was impossible to softly persuade Tu Youhao to let them live in.

But they must live with Tu Youhao.As Tu Youhao said, their illnesses have not healed for a long time. Many people in the palace have already gotten sick and were dragged out. It's getting worse.If he and Han Yan could live with Tu Youhao, and the three masters would serve together, the palace servants would save a lot of effort, and they could rely on Tu Youhao to eat and drink medicine on time.

Not to mention, recently, he had a faint feeling that something was wrong.

Since Tu Youhao couldn't be fooled, Jia Hu simply stated the truth: "The fourth prince is alone these days, it may not be easy, right?" Seeing Tu Youhao opened his mouth to refute, Jia Hu interrupted and continued. , "Smallpox is a disease, since those who suffer from this disease are close to death, high fever, acne all over the body, dizzy every day, and itching all over the body, this pain is unbearable for ordinary people. It is always the fourth prince Tian Huanggui, who has the best medicine. Who can guarantee that it will be fine? The fourth prince never thought that he might die?"

Tu Youhao's face changed drastically, his eyes widened and he shouted, "Jia Hu, you are so brave, you dare to curse me to death?"

Jia Hu was not afraid, and just said: "I'm just telling the truth. I'm not cursing the fourth prince. I'm happy to see you here too. Who knows if I can survive this? Maybe I will die before the fourth prince." What?!" Han Yan blinked and blinked, but said nothing.First of all, in private, Jia Hu swore that he would be fine, but now, he might die first.

Tu Youhao had nothing to say, and only heard Jia Hu say again: "It's not nice to say, Fourth Prince, our future is uncertain, and the future is unpredictable. Who can guarantee that he will survive? Dare?" Ask the fourth prince, have you really never worried at all? Have you ever been anxious? Does the fourth prince really feel good when he is alone?"

Tu Youhao's face was already extremely ugly, and he couldn't say anything.

How can it be good to be alone, facing the fear of possibly dying?

These days, he is the only one in the huge west wing room, the cold room, the smell of decay, lifeless, with an ominous atmosphere, Tu Youhao will feel uncomfortable and lose his temper at the palace at first, He was seriously ill, and he was in a daze with a fever, but he found that even if he cried out for pain, there was no one around him to talk to him.

The personal eunuch he was familiar with had long since fallen ill and was dragged away. His mother and concubine had never visited him since he was sent here, and they didn't even send anyone to send a message.The nanny did not say that she would come to serve him.Tu Youhao understands that regardless of how the nanny He Nanny treats him well, in her bones, she is just a person who is afraid of death.Tu Youhao can understand the weakness of human nature, but he cannot tolerate it emotionally.He was so kind to him on weekdays, and his affection for Nanny He was even more than that for Concubine Chen.But something happened, and no one came to accompany him.

Several times, he was so itchy that he couldn't bear to scratch the blisters. Several times, he was so hot that he was drowsy and sweating all over his body. I can only tell myself over and over again, don't scratch, it will leave scars in the future.It's okay, I have a fever, and sweating is a good thing.It doesn't matter if you have no strength, you can always make it through.How could he die like this at such a young age? !

No one comforts him, he can only comfort himself.No one to talk to him, he can only talk to himself.Tu Youhao didn't believe it, he couldn't make it through!

But no matter how much he comforted himself, Tu Youhao was still terrified in his heart.Why doesn't he want to find someone to accompany him, even if he doesn't do anything, as long as he knows that someone is by his side, being with him is enough to make him feel much better and give him some comfort...

With a lot of thoughts, Tu Youhao seemed to have been discovered a weakness, and his whole body exploded, and he said angrily: "You think I am like you, and I have no courage. A small illness can kill me. Scared? It happens to be quiet alone, what's wrong with it!"

This picture of a dead duck with a stiff mouth makes people angry and funny.Han Yan had never seen Tu Youhao like this before, so he almost didn't laugh.Of course, it's a good thing he didn't laugh, otherwise, Tu Youhao might not be able to let him go.

Jia Hu's eyes were also stained with a smile, this was the first time he saw what a child should look like in Tu Youhao.But soon, Tu Youhao realized that he was cold and disdainful again, Jia Hu restrained his mind, and said in a warm voice: "Even if the fourth prince is not afraid, Han Yan and I will do our best to do what we should do. We are your companions, the fourth prince, and the emperor Jinkou Yuyan asked us to come in to accompany you, how can we let you stay alone in the room all the time?"

Tu Youhao was disdainful: "That sounds nice..."

Jia Hu pretended not to hear, and continued: "Don't tell me you want to disobey the emperor's order?!" Tu Youhao choked and was speechless.Jia Hu said again: "These days, the palace people did have omissions about our house, but the fourth prince might not know it, the Han family and my parents also took advantage of their relationship to manage some people. The guards at the top level can take care of us to some extent. The palace people always neglect, but they will not go too far, and it is not enough to come to the fourth prince to find a backer to deter the palace people."

It's not all a lie.Han Yan is the only legitimate son of the second wife of the Han family, and is valued by Mrs. Han. Now that he is stuck in the palace, how can the Han family not ask someone to make arrangements?As for Jia Hu, although Jia Daishan did not allow Jia Shezhang to intervene, but they were related by blood, how could the husband and wife really see their son alone in the palace?Surreptitiously, Mrs. Zhang begged her natal elder brother and Xu Wei to take care of her, and a lot of money was stuffed.It is true that the guards are entrusted, but it is just a message to ask how you are. The palace people have benefited, so they are not completely thrown aside, and they will clean the house occasionally.Without this arrangement, Jia Hu Han Yan's life would not be the same as it is now.

Who said this is the palace, what they got is smallpox?No matter how powerful the Han family and Jia family are, they can't manage or supervise this place.Palace people have a heart to do things with money, but if they don't do things with money, what can you do?Speaking of it, there is only a slight difference between whether it is managed or not. Sometimes, there is not necessarily a difference.

Jia Hu knew this, and Han Yan, who had experienced it, knew it, but Tu Youhao didn't.

After hearing Jia Hu's righteous words, Tu Youhao couldn't help wondering, did he really wrong someone?Look at Han Yan again, his face is expressionless, and he can't see anything.As for Jia Hu, with a calm expression on his face, he couldn't help but tentatively said: "Someone from your two families has ordered the guards in the palace? What a face!" The guards in the palace are all carefully selected, so it is so easy for Han and Jia The family bought it?Tu Youhao was a little suspicious.

Jia Hu said lightly: "The commander of the guards, Commander Jiang, once received the favor of the old general Bai. The Bai family and the Han family are family friends."

As for the Jia family, Jia Hu didn't say anything, but for Tu Youhao, having one was enough.After the upper layer is managed, the lower ones are naturally to be helped.For a moment, Tu Youhao became a little more subtle. He also saw that Xi Xi was isolated, but Jia Hu and Han Yan's family paid so much attention to it. On the other hand, he...

Jia Hu clearly sensed the displeasure surrounding Tu Youhao. Although she didn't understand why, she tactfully didn't ask, but said, "Fourth prince, with us by your side, we can tell you about the outside world. You won’t be bored alone in the room, will you? If you agree, we’ll have the bedding brought over later.”

Who knows, at this stall, Tu Youhao still refused to let go: "I want to know what is going on outside. I am recuperating here right now, and outside things can still concern me? I just want to be alone. Whether you are sincere and want to take advantage of me, anyway, I am lazy to see you." He lowered his face and said, "Don't be an eyesore here, get the hell out of here and go back to your East Wing!" This is already extremely impolite .

Han Yan was the first one who couldn't help it, and jumped to Raja Hu: "The fourth prince has spoken like this, what are you waiting for, let's go." Tu Youhao's words were really annoying, and Han Yan was not without temper Yes, how can I bear it?Even if he knew that he and Jia Hu had something to ask for, when it comes to this, Han Yan would rather eat those cold meals than suffer this.

Where is Jia Hu willing to go?In the East Wing, they burned almost everything that could be used for cooking. After the food and soup were cold, what else would they use to heat them up?Called a palace man?They spent almost all the valuables on them, those palace people are no good, who will help them?It is already very good to be able to deliver food and medicine to them three times a day.They still have fever and illness, how can they eat cold food and drink cold medicine?Jia Hu knows better than anyone that he can live a new life, even if he has all kinds of grand ambitions, it will never be realized after death.

Jia Hu was inevitably annoyed by Tu Youhao's reluctance. He suddenly smiled and said, "The fourth prince doesn't need us to take care of him, so he really thinks that he can get through it by himself? For a disease like smallpox, you don't need it." So confident that you can survive? The fourth prince really can't see clearly the situation in the palace now?"

Seeing Jia Hu's blunt attitude, Tu Youhao also became angry, and sneered, "What's not clear to me?"

Jia Hu shook his head and laughed, "Fortunately, I think the fourth prince is brilliant, but I don't think so, you are also short-sighted!" Ignoring Tu Youhao who changed his color instantly, he sneered, "You only see that the palace people treat me and Han You are negligent, why didn’t you see the attitude of the palace eunuchs towards you? Remember the first day we came, it was the imperial hospital and several associate academicians who came to see it together? Such an old imperial doctor is highly skilled in medicine, and his words are well-founded, How did you disappear after that?"

Tu Youhao's face was gloomy and he didn't speak.Why doesn't he know that all the princes and daughters in the palace are recruited by Jianxi, this old doctor with high qualifications and high medical skills is naturally sent to another place, can he still guard the unfavorable prince all the time?

Jia Hu was not polite at all, and chased after him: "Look at the fourth prince's room, the decoration is not very good, and it is also a little dirty in this life, why don't you see anyone come to help you change it? These eunuchs and maids, look, Not very diligent!" Although Tu Youhao is better than them, he is a decent master in the palace, but he is only a little better than them, the master who is not favored, the palace is in a hurry now, and the children of the courtiers like them can't get it. With good care, how can Tu Youhao, a prince who has never been favored, be better?He showed weakness at the beginning because he didn't want to make matters worse.Tu Youhao thought he was really amazing?Jia Hu is already tired of trying to reason with him, since he is too soft, let's just cooperate directly.

"The fourth prince has been guarding this room all the time. I'm afraid he doesn't know that the sky is upside down?" Facing Tu Youhao's gloomy and puzzled eyes, Jia Hu told him, "All the princes and princesses are happy to see you. The incident has caused a sensation in the entire court. The emperor was furious and asked the Ministry of Criminal Justice to intervene to investigate the matter. It has been found out that shortly after His Highnesses fell ill, a court lady in the clothing bureau committed suicide. After careful investigation, it was found that her family was outside the palace. They were killed by the whole family."

Tu Youhao frowned: "Where did you get the news?" Tu Youhao is not surprised that someone caused trouble to kill him and all his brothers and sisters. Anyone with eyes can see that things are different this time Usually, all the princes and princesses are sick, this is unavoidable, and it is too coincidental.What Tu Youhao was more curious about was, where did Jia Hu get so much news?The criminal department is investigating the case. How did he get the news that he is in the palace?The Jia family is also willing to pass on the news to a child like Jia Hu?

Jia Hu ignored him, and smiled instead: "Looking at the appearance of the fourth prince, I know that you have a good idea of ​​this, so I don't know, do you know that in the evening after your highnesses fell ill, the west camp outside the capital The imperial guard camp put the entire capital under martial law? The people in the city are not allowed to enter and exit at will? The soldiers searched the streets and alleys of the entire capital, and they don’t know what else to look for.” As if he was afraid that Tu Youhao would not be shocked enough, he dropped another sentence, "Someone in the court recently started to mention Prince Yizhong..."

A terrible thought flashed through Tu Youhao's mind, and he was shocked, and blurted out: "Could it be..."

Jia Hu just looked at him: "I don't know the fourth prince, would you like to keep me with Han Yan to talk with you?"

Tu Youhao looked at him for a long time, struggled all over his face, nodded for a long time, and said, "Jia Hu, you are so courageous." It was not very loud, but Jia Hu could clearly hear the displeasure in the words.

That's right, it feels uncomfortable for anyone to be forced to make a decision with the benefits of news, let alone Tu Youhao, who has a high temper.

But would Jia Hu care?It's just a prince without any background, just wait for him to recover and leave the palace, what happened before, what will happen in the future, how can he be patient with him?

Right now, if Tu Youhao wants to know how the soldiers and horses of the imperial guard camp in Xidaying were mobilized so quickly, and also wants to know what happened in the court, why can't he be patient with him? !

"Then thank the fourth prince, I'll let outsiders bring over the bedding and a soft couch." Jia Hu looked at Tu Youhao who was full of displeasure, raised his eyebrows, and called out to Han Yan, "What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you thank the Fourth Prince for your kindness?"

Han Yan came over with a smile: "Thank you, Fourth Prince!"

Tu Youhao's jaw clenched, watching them almost burst into fire...
