Love in the Red Chamber is full of Xiaoxiang

Shui Rong entered the palace, before the morning court, everyone was discussing in the small court room.When Shui Rong saw King Zhongshun coming, everyone in the room stood up one after another, and went up to flatter him again.

Then King Duan also came. King Duan was born of the current Empress Dowager Jing Xian, so his status should not be underestimated.Therefore, Duan Wang and Shui Rong's father can be regarded as cousins, and they are cousins ​​in front of Shui Rong.The two stood and talked for a while.

Immediately after Shi Lang and the others came, King Zhongshun hurriedly went up to greet him: "Your Highness, I set up a banquet in the mansion yesterday to entertain His Highness, but the Third Highness didn't come after waiting."

Shi Lang smiled: "That's because the King Zhong invited him by chance, but something happened, so I'll come to the door another day."

Shui Rong felt that someone was pulling his clothes from behind, and when he turned around to look, he saw Shiheng standing behind, and exchanged winks with Shui Rong.Shui Rong naturally understood what was going on in his heart and just smiled.

I thought that everyone in this room would flatter and joke with Shilang again, who knows how many of them would start impeaching him.But they were all wearing masks.He suddenly thought of what Baoyu said. It seems that there is indeed a disgusting hypocrisy in the court.

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry said: "Now there is a Jia Hua who came up from somewhere."

The person in front of him hurriedly said: "My surname is Jia. Could it be that he came from the residences of Ning and Rong?"

Shui Rong has a fairly deep friendship with the Jia family, but he has never heard of anyone mentioning this person, so he didn't say anything.

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry said: "Judging from his conversation, he doesn't look like a son of a noble family. He came to visit me the day before yesterday. It can be seen that he has been in the officialdom for many years. He knows everything here, and he is a smart man."

There was chatter here for a while, and then I heard the hall clock ringing again, thinking that it's time.They adjusted their clothes one after another.Only then did they line up their shifts and head to the Jiyuan Hall one by one.

Two eunuchs in red were cleaning their whips. The whips made of yellow silk were coated with wax and fell to the ground. The sound resounded outside the spacious hall, declaring that the imperial power was inviolable.

The princes and ministers filed into the hall.After finishing the arrangement, the chief eunuch led the emperor out.

All the officials kowtowed and saluted.

The emperor sat on the throne, raised his hand slightly, and the people below stood up.The rustling of clothes and ornaments, there was no noise at all.

The hall was discussing major affairs in the world. Some of them said that Jia Zheng was good at managing coastal defenses, and proposed to reuse Jia Zheng's affairs. This was a matter brought up by General Hussars. The emperor just said: "I know, let's discuss it later."

Then the Minister of the Household Department stepped forward and handed over the impeachment of the third prince.Then many princes and ministers came to hand over the book, but Shi Lang was not prepared at all. Their tricks made him a little bit at a loss.

The emperor looked at the memorabilia in front of him, and if he opened any of them at random, it was all such big things as Shangbiao Shilang's murder of money, bullying others, and bribing officials in private.The more the emperor looked at it, the more serious his face became. He slapped the dragon case and shouted: "Third brother, is this what you did?"

Shilang knelt down immediately, and said in a panic: "Father, these are all planted by them, and please look into it."

The emperor said: "I will ask people to investigate. Don't think that I don't know about the good things you have done. Now I don't want to take care of it anymore. How to end up, you can ask for good luck." Shut Shilang to Fuqing Pavilion, and wait for the verification in the future before releasing him.

Shilang knew that he was under house arrest by his father, and saw that the only one pleading for him was his own uncle.Everyone ignored it, and felt cold at the moment.The disgraced man was taken down by the guards who came up.

Among the current princes, there are also quite a few wishful ones. Among them, the eldest prince Shijin thought he saw hope, and inadvertently smiled. Shiyu thought that he could not see hope because of his mother, but he did not expect that the third brother really wanted to. Falling down, so I have a lot of hope.After all, the eldest brother was born too low, and the concubine's natal family was only a county magistrate.Now I haven't seen how to get promoted, so it can be seen that the father doesn't like it.

The other princes with lower ranks thought that they had little to do with them, but let's look down.Only Shiheng couldn't see any expression on his face, but he didn't know that today's turmoil was all planned by himself.He had been looking forward to this day for a long time. In order to win Shilang, he spent a lot of effort, and finally took the first step successfully.His layout is not small, so Shilang can't give Shilang another chance to counterattack.

The matter of Shilang naturally upset the emperor, and he retreated when he saw that everyone had nothing else to perform.

Shi Heng quickly found Shui Rong, and took Shui Rong elsewhere: "Can the King of the North consider it?"

Shui Rong just asked: "What does His Royal Highness want me to do?"

Shiheng said: "It's not difficult, I just wrote down the things about the west tour and handed them over, the emperor will understand."

Things got so watery that he had no choice but to agree. Fortunately, he was prepared last night, and the difference was not too much.Shi Heng was very relieved, and patted Shui Rong on the shoulder: "The prince is young and talented, with a bright future. You should have some courage. I'm still waiting for you to do something with me."

Shui Rong said modestly: "The Sixth Highness thinks highly of Xiao Wang, that is Xiao Wang's blessing."

Shiheng laughed twice, and said: "Then I will leave this matter to the lord." He suddenly saw Zhongshun Wang Yongze coming out of the door there, so he said goodbye to Shui Rong, and was in a hurry to find Zhongshun Wang.

Shui Rong frowned slightly, thinking that King Zhongshun had sons and daughters with the Sun family, and the Sun family was the uncle's family of the third prince, so naturally they were on the side of the third prince, why did the sixth prince act this way?

After dealing with the government affairs for a while, Shui Rong felt a little irritable and boring.He didn't let anyone follow him, so he rode a horse and wanted to go out to relax.In the downtown area, the sound of yelling and selling can be heard everywhere. When we passed the Drum Tower, we saw a few people walking towards us.Among them, there was a young man in Chinese clothes who turned out to be Jia Baoyu.

Baoyu sees Shui Rong and rushes up to say hello.

Shui Rong smiled and asked, "Where are you going?"

Baoyu smiled and replied, "Walk around at will." He really dared not say that he came out of hiding.

Among them, Shui Rongjian is familiar with Feng Ziying, and there are several princes of aristocratic families.Among them are Xue Pan, Chen Yejun and others.

Shui Rong said to Baoyu again: "You and I go to the mansion together, I have something to tell you."

Baoyu also likes to associate with Shui Rong, and immediately said, "I dare not refuse the invitation of the prince." So he said goodbye to Xue Pan and others.

Chen Yejun and Xue Pan laughed and said, "Your Xue family is married to the Jia family again, Second Master Bao is your brother-in-law. I'm afraid you will gain a lot of benefits."

Xue Pan shook his head and said, "What's the benefit? Come on, don't mention it. It was my mother who wanted to make this marriage. Let's go, let's go drink." Xue Pan didn't want to go home, and there was another As for the tigress, he hides outside for a while.He has experienced Xia Jingui's prestige, and he has been playing with Xiangling again these days.That's all, he is willing to take care of these disputes in the room, there is always a place to have fun, enjoy it day by day, and don't worry about other things.

Baoyu followed Shui Rong to Beiwang Mansion.

Shui Rong invited him to talk in the small study, and entertained him with good tea as a tribute.Baoyu also likes to talk about what he has seen and heard at will.

Shui Rong said again: "Today, we are talking about the political elders. It seems that your father's reinstatement is imminent. After all, it has been two years. I'm afraid he will have to let go of his post again."

Baoyu liked it very much after hearing this, thinking that if his father went to a foreign job, no one would take care of him at home, and he would not be forced to ask about his homework, so he hurriedly said: "If this is the case, it is really a kindness. My father is at home all day. Comfortable."

But Shui Rong knew Baoyu's thoughts deeply, so he said: "I used to praise you when your jade was still there. Then why did the jade disappear? Didn't someone go looking for it? It would be a pity if it was really lost. "

Only Baoyu knew where his jade was, and said: "If you lose it, just throw it away. Everyone has it, and it's not a good thing if I have it. How can it be locked up?"

After hearing this, Shui Rong patted his legs and laughed, "It's still the same. I thought you'd become calmer after marrying a wife, and you're still the same."

Baoyu didn't care at all, and just smiled.

Shui Rong said again: "Actually, I have something to teach you."

Baoyu hurriedly said, "Please give me your advice, my lord."

Shui Rong said: "It is said that in life, filial piety is the great ethic of people. Elder Zheng now has only you as his son, so naturally he expects more. Naturally, he hopes that you will establish something. Our two families have a good relationship on weekdays. Ancestor Take care of each other, if there is no way, I can find one for you, talk about it, if you want to do something, I will try my best to help."

But Baoyu laughed, bowed his head to drink tea again, but didn't open his mouth.

Shui Rong suddenly sighed: "Actually, I am envious of seeing you like this, but there is nothing I can do in my position. All the burdens of the family are on my shoulders. When the father returned, he was also extremely naughty, and the family was even more naughty. No one dared to care about it. I did a lot of absurd things. It’s funny to think about it now. In fact, whether you really don’t like reading or pretend you don’t like reading. Why don’t you make a show and let the elders like it? Filial piety."

Baoyu thought to himself that the prince didn't talk about these things with him, so why did he suddenly bring it up today.I was very puzzled in my heart, but I didn't dare to ask.

Shui Rong said again: "Why don't you go to the Guozijian to study for a few days, and you will naturally make a lot of beneficial people, which will be beneficial to you in the future. The last time Mrs. Zun came to mention this to the princess at home, saying I haven't taken care of you on weekdays. If you want, I will run for you, and it is not difficult to go to the Imperial College."

Baoyu felt that it was annoying, so he got up quickly.As soon as he put down the teacup in his hand, he bowed and said goodbye: "Your Majesty, you don't need to see him off, so Baoyu will leave here." So he withdrew and left.

Shui Rong doesn't blame him for being impolite, thinking that Baoyu is still a child who hasn't grown up.But after all, it's not too small. If it continues like this, what will happen in the future?
