The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, the bright moon is like a ghost.A group of chariots and horses galloped like thunder, and instantly surrounded Chongshan Temple in the southeast corner of Taiyuan City.Soldiers rushed into the temple like tigers and wolves, holding open flames in a threatening manner.The eunuch shouted loudly: "My lord is here~~" King Jin got out of the car swaggeringly, and all around, fat and thin eunuchs, big and small, were holding oil lamps and whisking dust and other things, making a lot of noise and prestige.

There have long been monks in the temple bowing down.King Jin asked, "Where is the Queen Mother?"

The monk said: "The empress dowager just paid homage to Guanyin Bodhisattva in the Great Compassion Hall, but now she has retreated to the side hall to rest."

King Jin sneered: "Your temple is really good, even better than the palace. The queen mother doesn't even want children and grandchildren, so she came to the temple for reunion." The monks were so frightened that they chanted Amitabha Buddha.King Jin shook his sleeves and left.

The general who opened the way ahead had already found the empress dowager.As the king of Jin said, the official is too young, and if the queen mother does not allow him to enter, he will not be able to enter.Not long after, King Jin came in person.He ordered the eunuchs and nuns who were guarding the door: "Get out of the way!" They didn't dare to stop them any more, they lowered their heads and stepped aside.

King Jin pushed open the door of the wing room himself.Then I heard the empress dowager say leisurely inside: "The prince is so majestic."

King Jin sneered and said, "It's not as majestic as the queen mother." Then he stepped in.

Just entered half of the body, suddenly heard a sound above the head.King Jin couldn't help but looked up and was stunned.A figure hangs down from the lintel, the black gun barrel pointing directly at his own head.The queen mother sighed softly: "You careless child. Come in by yourself. Close the door and let others wait outside. Let us talk about our own things."

King Jin looked up at the assassin.The assassin was a woman, pretty in her thirties, with a deadpan expression in night clothes.Then he shuddered, turned around and ordered the people following him not to come in, and closed the door himself.A little maid flashed out from behind the cabinet, and locked the door with a click.Only then did the King of Jin discover that the house was actually locked with a Dajiala spring lock.Looking back, seven or eight people suddenly appeared in the room.Some are under the table, some are on the top of the cabinet, some are on the beam, and one is squatting halfway behind the chair where the queen mother sits; all of them are wearing night clothes and holding guns, all of which are aimed at King Jin.King Jin's heart beat like thunder.

The Queen Mother glanced at him leisurely: "Sit down."

King Jin straightened his back and walked to the chair beside the Queen Mother and sat down.A gunman immediately rushed to the back of the chair, and put the gun against the back of King Jin's head.The King of Jin glanced at the Queen Mother: "What is the Queen Mother going to do?"

The queen mother smiled indifferently: "I just got your father Tuomeng, saying that your boss is useless, and the Jin Kingdom will perish within ten years if it falls into his hands. But Xiaosi is a good kid, sensible and obedient. You are old, so pass it on." Give him a seat and take care of yourselves. It’s not bad for us two to wipe the dominoes and listen to the opera.”

King Jin said: "Father will never say such a thing."

"That's what he said just now."

King Jin stroked his beard: "When my father was alive, I told me repeatedly that my mother has a lot of power. You can give you everything, but you can't give you power. If you don't pay attention to miss a little bit, you will suddenly become ambitious , Sooner or later, he will listen to the government behind the curtain."

The queen mother was slightly startled: "Is this what your father said?"

"Yes." King Jin said, "it's the same with the father. Everything is given to the mother, except that you are not allowed to get involved in the affairs of the previous dynasty. It is for this reason that neither the grandfather nor the uncles have real power. The father knows that, They all listen to your queen mother. But if you give them real power, you will give real power to your mother." He looked at the queen mother and said, "Therefore, the father will never let the lonely king pass on the throne to him just because Xiaosi is sensible and obedient. Listen to mother, The old man doesn't like the prince that grandma said."

The queen mother actually laughed, and let out a sigh of relief: "Half a lifetime of husband and wife, your father really understands me. Yes, I really like Quan. Your grandparents' whole family, from your grandfather to your niece, listen to me." Nai snorted, "What did I say, why is your uncle and cousin so useless? It turns out that you father and son jointly suppressed them."

The King of Jin also laughed and said: "It's not about suppression, it's about banning. Anyone who marries with the grandfather's family will lose their official position immediately, and it's good to enjoy the blessings with spare money. Anyway, the queen mother is not allowed to have any excuse to get involved in the court." He said seriously, "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. It has been an iron law since ancient times. The mother's fault is that she didn't give up until my father passed away. The mother," he moved closer to the queen mother, "my son remembers very clearly. When the father died, You always had a smug look in front of his coffin. He had just been buried, and you sent a list to your son, which was full of more than 30 names, and you always wrote it down to the lonely king who would be the official."

The queen mother blurted out: "Didn't he also appoint a lot of officials to his family as soon as he arrived in Jin?"

"It was sealed by him, not by my grandmother." King Jin said solemnly, "Grandmother and uncle went to beg him. Grandmother begged him, he agreed, and sending a list of officials to Gu is not the same thing." What happened. If the mother later begged the lonely king, the lonely king would more or less agree."

The queen mother took the case: "You crawled out of my intestines yourself! Do you still want me to beg you?"

The King of Jin shook his head and said, "When you get married, obey your husband, and when your husband dies, obey your son. Queen Mother, do you know the word 'cong'?"

The Empress Dowager was about to speak in a rage when she suddenly heard a sneer, which was very loud and piercing.The mother and son looked up and saw the woman in black on the lintel full of teasing: "Pick up the bowl to eat meat, put down the chopsticks and scold your mother. Empress Dowager, your food and clothing are all given by your husband and son. Zhou Xiaolan, the king of Java in Nanyang Who dares to touch her power? Liu Mingqiu, the queen of Western England, took her husband's throne by herself, and she has the final say on any differences between her and the king. Dare to ask the queen mother, Jin From the founding of the country to the present, how much effort have you made?"

King Jin clapped his hands and praised: "This heroine is a sensible person."

The queen mother said angrily: "Presumptuous! Who hired you!"

"I know who hired me." The woman looked at King Jin and said, "Accept money to do things, and recognize money but not people. Although I don't approve of the queen mother, the contract is the only code of conduct in our business. If the employer needs I killed the prince, and I shot immediately. The prince must not have the fluke idea of ​​persuading me to help you escape, or you may lose your life."

A lot of words had flowed out of King Jin's mind just now, and she blocked them all with a few words.A second thought: "How much does she pay? The lonely king doubles."

The woman said indifferently: "It's the biggest taboo for mercenaries to get out of battle because of receiving money. But if this happens once, I won't have to be a fool in this business for the rest of my life. The prince should admit it."

King Jin hurriedly said: "I'll give you money alone, so much money that you won't have to work any more in your life."

"No, I like this line of work. Besides," the woman looked at King Jin several times, "it's up to us who is richer." King Jin was speechless, and the queen mother laughed.

The Empress Dowager waved her hand: "Stop gossiping. Write down the imperial edict, everyone. Hello. I am your mother after all. I don't want to kill you after giving birth to you."

King Jin sneered and said, "Empress Mother thought that Xiaosi would be able to take the throne with an imperial edict? Do you think Lin Dongyang is dead?"

The queen mother laughed, pointed at him and said: "You are still dreaming! Lin Dongyang is already a junior. Your good son is so good that he hangs in the street to snatch someone's bride. If Lin Dongyang doesn't mind, is he still a man?"

King Jin was shocked: "He dares!"

The queen mother said politely: "If you had listened to my advice and asked him to marry your cousin, wouldn't this be the case today?" Nai slapped her hands twice.

The little maid had thickened the ink at some point, spread out the brocade silk, pressed the paperweight and said in a crisp voice: "My lord, the model of the imperial edict has been prepared for you, you just need to copy it."

King Jin glanced over, and there was indeed a piece of paper on the case.Nai sneered: "What if the lonely king doesn't write?"

The queen mother smiled and said, "It's not too late for you to go and see the template first." The king of Jin wondered, stood up and went to the case to pick up the template, and suddenly gasped: the template was actually his own handwriting!The Queen Mother said leisurely, "Although Concubine Yin is simple, she has such a skill. Except for Han Qi and Lin Dongyang, others must not be able to tell the difference. Han Qi is a civil servant, so what if he can tell the difference?"

King Jin's fingers trembled slightly, which could be regarded as somewhat frightened.Since Concubine Yin has this ability, they can do everything cheaply.After a while, he said with a cold face: "The lonely king doesn't know that she is so promising."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "You don't know much about women's abilities."

Jin Wang said angrily: "The lonely king won't write it! If you have the guts, just forge the imperial edict, and someone will see it."

A man in black came over and poked King Jin a few times.King Jin was about to cry out in pain, but his mouth was already gagged.King Jin's body suddenly went limp, and the little servant girl quickly supported him and moved him to the chair.After a while, King Jin came over slowly, and the man in black pulled out the cloth towel from his mouth and immediately stuffed a pill.King Jin swallowed it unexpectedly.The man in black said: "There are seven kinds of chrysalis here. You need to take medicine every three months to restrain the chrysalis, otherwise the worms will devour your brain and die."

King Jin was so frightened that he was out of his wits, pointing at the queen mother: "You...you are so cruel!"

The Queen Mother replayed the case again, clenching her teeth: "Are you not cruel? If there is any way, why would I do this!"

The little girl sighed pretendingly: "My lord, write quickly, it's good for everyone."

King Jin looked up at the woman on the lintel, her face turned as cold as frost again, and the musket in her hand was still aimed at his head.King Jin suddenly remembered something. "People from the Imperial City Division heard a man talking in this room—"

The little maid opened her mouth with a man's voice: "No problem, unless the prince comes in person, no one will recognize me." King Jin was stunned.

The queen mother snorted, "Do you think it's your second brother's concubine?"

King Jin was stunned for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "The queen mother is good at planning. The monk from Sensoji Temple and the Hao family who are under my son's door?"

The queen mother smiled: "There is no monk in Sensoji Temple. They are two peasants who shaved their heads and pretended to be. Each of them gave them ten taels of silver. That kid from the Hao family is just playing for others to see. Not so, the library's People are all around you now, can you seduce my good son and throw yourself into a trap?"

King Jin nodded: "So that's the case."

The little maid yawned: "My lord, anyway, you are poisoned. You have taken the medicine, so just admit it. Write the imperial edict quickly so that you can finish work and go to sleep. I am sleepy. It is useless to delay if you come back after the daughter is gone." ah."

King Jin laughed a few times, looked at the queen mother and said, "How obedient do you think Xiaosi is?"

The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "You just need to rest assured, Xiao Si will naturally obey."

The King of Jin glanced at her mockingly, picked up a pen and dipped it in the thick ink, copied it according to the template, and finally took the King Jin's seal from his pocket to stamp it on.Throwing away the seal, he sent a beggar like: "Take it."

The little maid hurriedly picked up the brocade and inspected it, nodded and said: "That's right. Thank you, my lord." Then she put the brocade back on the desk, walked back to the door and opened a crack, and shouted to the outside, "Hey~~ Send two people away Go and invite the Fourth Highness, hurry up!"

Then I heard Gan Kexi anxiously asking outside: "May I ask what the Fourth Highness is doing?"

"Don't ask so many questions, please go if you want." The little maid slammed the door shut, turned around and took the brocade silk and handed it to the queen mother.

The queen mother nodded after reading it and said: "That's right." Then she said proudly to King Jin, "Do you know that Xiao Si is the son of your second brother."

King Jin was stunned: "What?!"

The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "It's just that the doctor is very capable and saved Yin's pregnancy and gave birth late."

The woman in black on the beam suddenly interjected: "Queen Mother, I'm curious. Is this your own child? Or did you leave the child behind?"

The Empress Dowager said indifferently: "If it wasn't his own, he would still be alive right now? With his second brother, wouldn't he have to go to the King of Hades?"

The woman was puzzled and said, "Then why are you partial to this?"

The queen mother's eyelids twitched: "If you don't listen to half a word, what's the use of raising such a son?"

The woman shook her head: "So you raised your son to be obedient."

The queen mother said solemnly: "I worked so hard to conceive and give birth to him in October, and raised him with painstaking efforts, but he guarded me like a thief! He even knows how to wag his tail when raising a dog."

The woman laughed and said: "You are not a thief, but a robber. You have no ability to rob, and you can only hope that Babaer will give you the money. They are not stupid, so why give you for nothing?"

The man who fed the poison to King Jin said: "Speak less. What are you talking about with her? We are just here to do something." The woman shrugged and said nothing.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and Situ Wei shouted outside: "Father, my son please see me."

The little maid skipped to open the door and said, "It's so fast! Is he waiting outside?"

The door lock rang, and Situ Wei stood eagerly at the door, shouting: "Father, grandma!"

The Queen Mother said slowly, "Let him in."

Situ Wei quickly stepped into the room, and the little maid immediately closed the door.Situ Wei stepped forward to salute: "Father, grandmother."

King Jin raised his hand and slapped him: "Who is your father!" Situ Wei fell to the ground so much that he beat him so much.

The Queen Mother smiled and waved: "Little Four, come." Situ Wei approached her.The Queen Mother picked up the brocade edict and waved it, "Take it."

Situ Wei was overjoyed, knelt down on his knees and kowtowed his head three times: "Thank you grandma." Fang took the edict with both hands.Turning around, he kowtowed three times to King Jin, "Thank you, father."

King Jin sneered and said: "It's not your father alone, go to Dongying to find your father!"

"Exactly." The Empress Dowager said, "Hurry up and bring your father back. Dongying is full of snakes, insects and beasts, he can't bear it."

Situ Wei got up from the ground and said with a smile, "Second Uncle? I heard that he is doing well in Dongying, so don't bother him."

The queen mother was taken aback: "What did you say? That's your father!"

Situ Wei smiled and said: "Father is my father." Then, he took out a piece of paper from his bosom and handed it to the little maid.The little maid took it and sent it to the Queen Mother.

The queen mother looked at Huizi and said, "This is Zhang's usual anti-fetal medicine prescription."

"That's right." Situ Wei said, "It's a prescription for anti-pregnancy, not a prescription for late birth. I'm not a late baby, but a full-term baby." The queen mother was confused.Situ Wei tilted his head, "Back then, my mother and concubine really loved my second uncle, so I tricked my grandmother into saying that she was pregnant with my second uncle's flesh and blood, thinking that you would give her to my second uncle. You just believed it without verifying it, in a hurry... "He glanced at King Jin. "Later you sent someone to find the doctor. You threatened and lured him, and ordered him to just say that my concubine mother was pregnant for two months. The doctor was at a loss because she was indeed pregnant for two months."

The room was instantly silent.After a long time, King Jin suddenly laughed.
