[Red Mansion] Young Master Lin Yan

back to the house.

Jia Yuanchun backed away, and directly poured the contents of the porcelain bottle into the spittoon basin.There was a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

After a long time, one wisdom.She has made a mistake once, and she will not make it again.If it wasn't for the fact that she took out the medicine in the Wang Xifeng incident, how could she have fallen into such a dilemma.

She originally thought that the secret medicine of the palace would not respond normally, and when Wang Xifeng gave birth, the event would be accomplished.After destroying the sachet, it is even more difficult to find traces.But now I realize that as long as you make a move, you will leave clues.And the rarer the boutique, the easier it is to leave a handle.

Just like the porcelain vase given by Jiamu.

Jia Yuanchun smiled slightly as he watched the colorless, odorless powder that melted into the spittoon basin and disappeared in an instant.Mother Jia wanted to drag her into the water and increase the handle on her in order to better control her.Unfortunately, she doesn't want to.

Now that things have come to this point, she can see clearly.The so-called love is fleeting, and once it involves more immediate interests, it will become a pawn that can be used.

Now that the second wife is in trouble, she needs Mother Jia's protection, but she cannot fully place her hopes on Mother Jia's protection.She has to think for herself.

There are many ways to achieve the goal.Poisoning is the stupidest way.She will never use it again!

Baoqin lifted the curtain and came in, "Miss, sister Fei Cui from the old lady's yard sent a food box and said that the kitchen is ready. Shall we go now?"

Jia Yuanchun came out in response, took the food box in Fei Cui's hand, "Let's go!"

The weather in the twelfth lunar month was bitterly cold, and the cell was even colder and damper. Jia Yuanchun walked alone in the dark corridor.Every step is very heavy.

"That's right here. Miss Jia can do as she pleases. But the girl also knows that this matter is too much trouble now. Although it is common for children to visit their mother, please pay attention to the time, don't take too long."

Jia Yuanchun smiled and handed over a piece of silver, "Don't worry, the official, I won't embarrass you."

The yacha took the silver and weighed it, then retreated satisfied.

Jia Yuanchun turned into the cell, only to see that although Madam Wang was still wearing the same clothes that she went out that day, her body was a little messy, not unkempt, but she was also a little embarrassed. Also out of sight.

"Miss Yuan!"

Mrs. Wang's eyes were amazingly bright, and her voice trembled, hiding endless joy.

Jia Yuanchun's heart trembled, and tears suddenly fell.

"Mrs!"

The mother and daughter cried for a while, and Jia Yuanchun took out the food from the food box and served Mrs. Wang to eat, then took the clothes from the bag, and spent a tael of silver to ask the official to change a basin of hot water to help Mrs. Wang Wash and change clothes.Then he took off the golden hairpin on Mrs. Wang's head, let her hair loose, and re-arranged and combed her hair.

Because after all, there is a commandment in the body.She pleaded guilty again.Perhaps there is also an order from Mr. Fu Yin later.The yamen servants were not too embarrassed. The gold and silver jewelry on Madam Wang's body, except for a jade bracelet, was probably exchanged for preferential treatment in the prison.Everything else is still there.

Jia Yuanchun was inexplicably relieved.Comb the hair in a good bun, apply oil on the hair, and then redecorate the gold hairpin that was removed just now, and show Mrs. Wang a glass mirror the size of a palm in her arms, "Madam is still so beautiful!"

But at this sentence, Mrs. Wang burst into tears again. She didn't care about looking at herself in the mirror, so she just pulled Jia Yuanchun and said, "You are the only one I can trust now. Promise me and take good care of Baoyu!"

"Baoyu is my direct brother, so there's no reason for me not to take care of him. Just don't say such things, my wife, she will be safe. I... I'll go beg my uncle. Uncle won't ignore me."

Mrs. Wang shook her head, grabbed her and refused to let go, "Don't go!"

"Madam...this..."

"Promise me, don't go!"

Her brother, she knew.If Wang Ziteng knew about the powerful relationship, he would definitely abandon Jia Jiabao Wang's family.But the terrible thing is, which one of Yuanchun and Baoyu is not from the Jia family!Their surname is Jia, not Wang!Besides, Baoyu is still in the old lady's house!

Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but shuddered, and grabbed Jia Yuanchun even tighter.Jia Yuanchun's delicate boudoir girl has delicate skin and flesh, and a red circle suddenly appeared on her wrist.

"Ma'am, what's the matter with you, ma'am?"

Mrs. Wang opened her mouth, "Why didn't Baoyu come?"

"Baoyu was not feeling well a while ago, although he has no diarrhea now, but he is still young. The old lady was afraid that he would blow the wind again when he went out, so she detained him in the house."

Mrs. Wang's eyes flickered, "He... is he okay?"

"I heard it's pretty good. It's just that I haven't seen my wife for a long time, and I had two quarrels and cried a lot. Fortunately, the old lady calmed down."

"I heard? You didn't go to see him with your own eyes, okay?"

The strength in Mrs. Wang's hand became a little stronger, Jia Yuanchun was in pain and almost cried out, but fortunately he held back.Looking up and seeing the eagerness and reproach in Mrs. Wang's eyes, she felt cold and lowered her head with her lips pursed.

"Don't worry, ma'am. Baoyu is the lifeblood of the old lady. Since the old lady said it's okay, then it's okay. Because Baoyu was sick, I was also sick a few days ago. The old lady was afraid that both of us would get sick, so we just Don't ask me to go in and see him."

Mrs. Wang swayed a little, only to hear Jia Yuanchun turn around and arrange the food again, "My wife didn't eat much. I went to find the messenger to ask for a stove to heat it up, and my wife would eat more. Otherwise, the food in the prison Where is it edible.

Don't worry too, madam.That is... that is, what did the wife really do to the late eldest aunt.In any case, the old lady was worried about Baoyu and me, and she always thought of her wife's good, and she would make a move. "

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but sneered.

"Don't believe me, ma'am. Today I can come to see my wife because of the old lady's relationship. The old lady told me yesterday that no matter what my wife does, it is my mother. I should come to see my wife, otherwise I will just I'm afraid we won't be able to see each other in the future. He also said, "Poor Baoyu, I'm afraid that when the disease recovers and she can go out, she will lose her mother..."

Speaking of this, Jia Yuanchun's complexion changed drastically, and he spat several times, "Madam, ma'am, I'm talking nonsense, don't take it to heart. Madam, we always have a solution. Don't worry, I will definitely go Find a way. I..."

Mrs. Wang's complexion was pale, and she grabbed Jia Yuanchun, seemingly unable to hear what was behind her, so she murmured: "The old lady said this?"

"what?"

When he recovered and went out, he lost his mother.Is this implying her unless she dies?

Mrs. Wang closed her eyes, ruthless, really ruthless!She sneered inwardly, took a deep breath, opened her eyes again but seemed to have made up her mind, looked at Jia Yuanchun obsessively, and stretched out her hand to straighten her hair.

"Mother knows that you are a good person. Didn't you say that the First Prince met you during the Plum Garden Banquet, and even hinted that he was interested in you? It's a pity that you are now implicated by me. Trouble. But the royal family is no better than other families. It is a concubine, as long as you can win the heart of the eldest prince, even an ordinary concubine will give you three points.

Among the several adult princes, only the eldest prince and the second prince were crowned princes, and the rest were county princes.The second prince saw that he was going to die.The eldest prince is also the elder, so he might be a man of great fortune.If you can get a noble concubine at that time, why worry about not being as beautiful as Zhen Guifei today. "

Jia Yuanchun's heart sank, the previous lobbying for her to marry the Fifth Prince was almost the same rhetoric.In Mrs. Wang's opinion, is it possible for anyone to be in the top position?Is it worth a fight as long as it is royal?

But if she fails, what will happen to her?Not to mention, concubine concubine?What's the difference between that and a concubine!

She held her breath in her throat, but Mrs. Wang was still talking, "Mother knows that you have been wronged, but now the situation is like this, and mother also wants you well. Only when you enter the royal family and get favored can Baoyu get up. otherwise……"

Baoyu... in the end it was for Baoyu...

Jia Yuanchun felt cold inside.

Mrs. Wang turned her head away and started crying again, she wiped away her tears when she was almost finished crying, looked around, and made sure there was no one, then she started talking again, but her voice was more than a little bit softer than before, as thin as a mosquito Yin, fortunately it was said in Jia Yuanchun's ear, otherwise I'm afraid I wouldn't have heard it.

"That's the end of this matter. Promise me, don't bring it up again in the future, let alone ask your father, don't ask the old lady. And then..."

Mrs. Wang paused, and her voice became softer, "The matter of the medicine is also rotten in the stomach, forget about it. There is only one thing, you need to always remember that no matter what, Baoyu will always be yours." My dear brother. As long as you take care of him and treat him well, I am willing to die."

Jia Yuanchun's heart skipped a beat, he was startled, he opened his mouth, and just said "Ma'am", Mrs. Wang covered his mouth, and after Jia Yuanchun nodded in response, he let go, crying and said: "I I'll give you Baoyu!"

Jia Yuanchun didn't know how to answer for a while, so he should be in a daze.

Mrs. Wang seemed to finally let go of her heart, and suddenly laughed.It's just that this smile made Jia Yuanchun inexplicably flustered and at a loss.She had never seen Wang's smile like this before, and she couldn't tell what emotion she was feeling.

The previous yamen turned around and reminded: "The time is up."

Jia Yuanchun was in a daze, he didn't know how he got out of the prison.It was the Baoqin outside who called her several times before she came back to her senses.

She turned around, looked at the solemn and solemn Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, stayed for a long while, finally gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and knelt down with a plop.

********

The sky is snowing again.

More and more pedestrians gathered on the street to watch the excitement. The newcomer didn't understand the situation, so he couldn't help asking people around, "What's the matter? Who is kneeling outside the yamen, but what is wronged?" "

"Where is there any grievance. Who doesn't know that this is at the feet of the emperor, Mr. Fu Yin is still upright and upright. If someone complains, there is no way to ignore it! This kneeling is the eldest girl of Rongguo Mansion!"

The person who asked jumped, "Why is Miss Qianjin of the Duke's Mansion kneeling here? What are you doing!"

"Recently, the Jia family in Rongguo Mansion made a lot of noise, and the second-bedroom wife framed the late wife and grandma of the first house, you must know!"

"I know, I know, everyone is talking about it. Now there are still people who don't know."

"Hey, the one kneeling is the second wife's daughter. It is said that she came to beg Mr. Fu Yin. She said that her mother had harmed someone. The evidence is solid, and she dare not argue. Even if she is punished by the king's law, it should be done.

It's just that she has the grace of giving birth to her in the end.As a daughter, she couldn't ignore it.Therefore, I think that there are human feelings outside the law, but I ask Mr. Fu Yin to let her replace her mother for the sake of her filial piety.She is willing to suffer on behalf of her mother, even if she dies to apologize. "

The person who asked the question was stunned, shook his head and sighed: "It is said that good bamboos produce bad bamboos. Now I see a bad bamboo that produces good bamboos. Looking at it this way, this young lady from the Jia family is a good one. She is the same as her mother." Not the same. I saw that there was already a layer of snow on her body, I'm afraid she must have knelt for a while!"

"It's not just for a while. Didn't you see that there is a girl who is dying of anxiety? The snow on Miss Jia has been swept off by her several times, otherwise, it would be more than that. That girl is also loyal, and she took the cloak again. , and stuffed the hand stove again. Miss Jia refused to accept it. She said that only in this way can Mr. Fu Yin see her sincerity.

She was ill a few days ago, but today she felt better and went to see her mother in the prison, only to find out that the prison is not easy to stay in.She couldn't let her mother suffer like this again.Although I dare not let Mr. Fu Yin violate the king's law.But I also ask Mr. Fu Yin to be considerate of her heart of being a child, so that she can take the place of this sin. "

Three or five people beside him sighed and joined the topic one after another.

"That's right! I heard that too. Speaking of which, I'm afraid I was the first to find her kneeling here. Counting the time, I'm afraid she has been kneeling for two hours."

"How can a delicate lady from a great family bear such suffering? If she hadn't been supported by the girl next to her, she would have passed out long ago. I can see that her face is pale now, and she can't stand on her knees."

"In this case, it's not like pretending, it should be from the heart."

"Master Fu Yin didn't say anything?"

"I didn't come here. I came out twice and advised Miss Jia to go home. Miss Jia refused. Mr. Fu Yin said that one person should do something and one should be responsible. There is no reason to replace one's body. Miss Jia said, as the saying goes, Parents' debts should be paid by children. Since there is such a saying, it should be possible to do so.

He also said that it may not be without precedent since ancient times.At that time, Chunyu Tiying also wrote a letter, wishing to demote himself to be an official slave to atone for his father's crime.So what if she imitated it today!Mr. Fu Yin couldn't say no to her, so the stalemate came to an end. "

Everyone was talking vigorously, when suddenly a petty official ran out of the house in a panic, shouting: "Madam Wang committed suicide!"

Jia Yuanchun swayed, but didn't lift it up in one breath, and passed out.

********

glass factory.

While drawing the blueprints, Lin Yan was fiddling with the equipment in his hands. He had no time to spare. When he was thirsty, he only asked Bai Zhi to pour a cup of tea and drink it with her hands.Unfortunately, when the door opened, Situ Yue walked in and saw this scene, so he couldn't help joking, "What a mess the Jia family has become, you are lucky, you are here to add fragrance to your red sleeves, how happy you are!"

Lin Yan looked at the messy table with a bitter face, "Your Highness thinks this is happiness?"

Situ Yue laughed, "That's what you asked for! Who made you not want to go back to Jia's house! I said, since the incident with Jia's house came out, you have been hiding here and haven't gone back for so many days! The Imperial College didn't even go, I am ashamed to say that it is the emperor's life. You are not afraid that the father will punish you for the crime of falsely preaching the imperial decree!"

Lin Yan blinked, and pointed to the tripod telescope that was about to be completed beside him, "I'm not lying, everything is true, isn't this the emperor's order?"

Situ Yue choked. In terms of business, he couldn't compete with Lin Yan;He simply stopped playing, grabbed a chair and sat down, wondering: "Don't you really care about the Jia family at all? That's your mother's family!"

"Your Highness also said that it's only my niece's family, not mine! Why should I be in a hurry. Besides, I don't have time to spare. The emperor is hurrying to make it, how can I not be in a hurry!"

Situ Yue scoffed.Lin Yan said again: "However, if Your Highness wants to talk, I'd like to hear it."

Situ Yue was so angry that he had never seen such a thick skin. He obviously wanted to know, but instead pushed it to others.

"Ms. Wang is dead!"

As soon as the four words came out, Lin Yan opened his eyes wide, and the things he was assembling almost fell to the ground, "Dead?"

Situ Yue recounted the news he had heard.Lin Yan frowned more and more as he listened.

"Wu Zuo has repeatedly examined the body, and it is indeed suicide. Because she was ordered by law, she was not searched when she entered the prison. She used the gold hairpin on her head to insert herself into her heart. Before that, she had to ask for pen and ink with the yamen.

Because Jia Yuanchun had only come to visit before, and he had given the Yacha a lot of benefits, the Yacha didn't think much about it, and gave it away happily.As the wife of a rich family, it is not uncommon to be able to read and write, and it is not uncommon to ask for pen and ink.Little did she know that what she wrote was a suicide note. "

Lin Yan frowned, "What did you write?"

Situ Yue handed over a letter directly.Lin Yan opened his mouth wide, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Your Highness, you wouldn't go and ask for it yourself, would you?"

Situ Yue rolled his eyes, "How is that possible! Is my master the one who does this kind of thing? My master has nothing to do with the Jia family and the Wang family, so what's the point of asking for this thing! I want the little eunuch next to me to go!" You see, I knew you wanted to read it, so I copied another copy. The suicide note must be included in the case file. The Ministry of Criminal Justice is in charge of it!"

Lin Yan nodded, he didn't really want to see it.But since it's right in front of you, it doesn't hurt to take a look.

It's just that there is nothing wrong with this suicide note. The central idea is that he has already confessed his crime, and punishment cannot be avoided.I didn't want to suffer in prison, and I didn't want to involve my children anymore, so I had no choice but to die.

Situ Yue said again: "The governor has also checked the handwriting, there is no problem. This case is considered closed. It's just that after her death, I'm afraid you will have to go back to Jia's mansion. But please help me Go and talk to your father, and he will directly issue an imperial decree to let you stay in the glass factory and make this stuff."

Situ Yue's face was full of "you come and beg me", Lin Yan almost laughed, stood up and stretched, "No need. I should go back, I can't stay in the glass factory every day. It's not very comfortable here .”

Situ Yue's face collapsed, and he was disappointed for a while.But then he became excited again, and pulled Lin Yan out the door at almost flying speed.After getting into the carriage, he turned directly to the carriage and horse dealership at the entrance of Liuli Street.

"Look, is it the same as the drawing you gave last time!"

Improved carriage!Lin Yan was pleasantly surprised, and walked around the carriage several times to check, and then went inside to try it out, and it felt great!This feeling is just going to fly.

"Master Jiu made it?"

"Of course! It was made a few days ago. It's just that you stayed in the glass factory and didn't go out. The emperor told me that unless you come out by yourself, don't ask me to use this thing to distract you. I'm almost suffocating. !"

Situ Yue, like him, likes to tinker with these new things. He understands the feeling of having new things without a bosom friend to appreciate together!

"How about it, Master didn't let you down!"

"No, no! It's a surprise! Master Jiu is a great talent!"

Situ Yue's buttocks almost turned up.

Lin Yan looked at the carriage and thought, "How many cars has Master Jiu made?"

Situ Yue pointed at the car dealership, "Jiu Ye, I have all the car dealerships open. Taking advantage of your new year's festival, they have already started selling and accepting customization. How many cars do you think you have?"

Lin Yan laughed, "Then I would like to ask Master Jiu to give me one."

Situ Yue scoffed, "Of course there is one of yours, does your master seem so stingy?"

"That's not what I mean. I mean, send me another car and send it to Jiangnan!"

Situ Yue was dumbfounded, "Don't tell me, you are going to send it to your father!"

"Of course! I can't enjoy it in Beijing while my father suffers in Jiangnan. What's more, there are my mother and younger siblings!"

The corner of Situ Yue's mouth twitched, it was just a carriage, how could it involve suffering!

"However, Mr. Lin will go to Beijing in just a few months, what about you?"

Lin Yan was startled, his face changed greatly, "What did you say?"

"The Cao Gang has changed. I heard that the former gang leader found out that the concubine was stealing, and wanted to cut off the adulterer/husband/prostitute/wife, but he was cut off by the adulterer/husband. The head of the family made a lot of trouble. The gang suffered heavy losses and could not be handed over.

Master Lin invited the new magistrate to come to an agreement, ask for an order to recruit security, and merge the Cao Gang into the Water Transport Yamen for rectification.Who doesn't know that the Cao Gang was in the hands of the Zhen family before, Master Lin's move can be said to be a unique way, and the sword is slanted!Without saying a word, he took over the entire Caobang!From now on, there will be no more word Caobang!

At this rate, Jiangnan will be pacified in about a few months.According to Father's intention, he wanted Mr. Lin to go to Beijing. "

Lin Yan staggered and almost lost his footing, his face turned pale in an instant.Situ Yue jumped, "You...you don't know, right? Logically speaking, I know all about it. You are from the Lin family, so you should know it before I do."

It stands to reason...

Arguably, it is.But if Lin Ruhai deliberately hides it from him!How did he know!

Lin Yan clenched his hands into fists, every inch tightening.

The faster you return to Beijing, the greater the action, and the greater the danger!

Thinking of this, Lin Yan galloped out, grabbed the reins, jumped on the horse, and returned to the glass factory in a hurry.

The capital is thousands of miles away from Jiangnan, no matter how anxious he is, there is nothing he can do.For the current plan, all he can do is to increase the weight of the Lin family in front of the emperor.Therefore, the matter of the telescope cannot be delayed.

The author has something to say: Did everyone think they would use that medicine?Hahaha, Jia Yuanchun just stumbled on medicine.How could you still get in.

So don't worry everyone, maybe the plot of the next chapter is something you didn't expect.

Um.I feel that Jia's family has been blacked out by me. [Ahem, I feel like I'm a little ruthless. 】

I think Mrs. Wang and Jia Yuanchun are both egoists.

It is true that Mrs. Wang loves Jia Yuanchun, but it cannot be compared with Baoyu.It's as if Mother Jia really loves Daiyu and Lin Yan, but she can't compare with Jia's family and Baoyu.If you leave Baoyu aside, just look at Jia Yuanchun.Mrs. Wang is willing to go this far for her.no one knows.

But the most important thing is that Jia Yuanchun doesn't believe Mrs. Wang can.In fact, Jia Yuanchun's mood is quite complicated.But she chose herself in the end.

Of course, this is only her first step.There is a second step behind.Don't ask me what the second step is.No spoilers.You can see it when you read down.

Let’s write about Brother Lin first.After all, Brother Lin is the protagonist.
