Daiyu of the Red Chamber owes no one

It's all right for Jiamu to hear this. Who among these people in the palace doesn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing?Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said: "Master Xia really has a very effective prescription. Please also give a copy to Jia Nushi. I am very grateful."

After hearing Mrs. Wang's words, Xia Shouzhong looked at her contemptuously and said, "Who is this? I'm afraid you can't make the decision."

Mrs. Wang is domineering and has the same temperament as Wang Xifeng. Although she has pretended to be indifferent to the world for many years, she is really unhappy when she hears this, and she is almost about to explode.But she didn't dare to offend the people in the palace, so she endured it.Jia Mu was afraid that Mrs. Wang would offend the nobleman, so she quickly glanced at Mrs. Wang and said, "How does Mr. Xia formulate this prescription? Please give me an accurate explanation. If the old man can afford the money, I will save my granddaughter." Saved."

After hearing this, Xia Shouzhong looked at Jia Mu with a smile, turned around and said to Mrs. Wang, "You retreat to the corner of the wall." Although Mrs. Wang was dissatisfied, she finally withdrew.Then Xia Shouzhong whispered in Jia Mu's ear for a while, Mrs. Wang saw Jia Mu's expression changed drastically, and she was very anxious, but she couldn't hear anything.

After listening to Jia Mu, she pondered the meeting, ordered someone to call Yuanyang to fetch 500 taels of silver, sealed it, and handed it to Xia Shouzhong and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xia, for the virtue of reporting the letter. This idea of ​​tea money, Mr. Xia, is good. Don't dislike it." Little. Let the old man think about what Master Xia said just now, and give Master Xia an accurate answer tomorrow."

Xia Shouzhong listened, and said with a sharp smile: "Old Feng Jun is so polite, how can there be any tea money or not? If so, I will just make another trip tomorrow." He put a bag of silver in his arms, said goodbye and left.

What did Xia Shouzhong say to Jia's mother?Jia Yuanchun was just a cover. From the moment a woman was sent into the harem, her words and deeds, her life and her death were all about the fate of the family. Who really cared about their lives?What Xia Shouzhong said was naturally about Jia Daishan's old department in Ping'an Prefecture taking refuge in the new master, so Mrs. Wang couldn't hear it.

Mother Jia is getting old, she lost her ambitions after Concubine Zhen lost her power, and she only thought about the safety of her children and grandchildren. As for the future, rich and poor, let them each rely on their own abilities.But Xia Shouzhong said: When he was in charge of searching Zhen Guifei's palace, he found some things from Jia Nu Shi's room. These things were seen by the saints, and Rongguo Mansion might not be able to bear the consequences.The Jia family and the Zhen family had a very deep collusion, although every important letter they sent was burned after reading it, and Jia's mother couldn't tell if Xia Shouzhong's words were true.That's why Jia's mother was hesitant, and gave Xia Shouzhong another silver, and asked him to give herself a day to think about it.

Although Jia's mother prefers the second son, Jia Daishan is a sensible person who established the eldest son. Therefore, although Jia Amnesty was squeezed into the East Court, he took the title when Jia Daishan was still alive.Jia Daishan's former Ping'an State Ministry also only sold Jia Amnesty's face.After the fifth prince died of illness in the previous life, Concubine Zhen took the influence behind her to vote for the seventh prince, and it was Jia Lian who went to Pingan Prefecture for business.Later, the Seventh Prince killed the donkey, and among the crimes against the Jia family, the Rongguo Mansion was charged with "advertising with foreign officials" because of this.

In the previous life, because the Lin family had suffered a crushing defeat, Jia's family had no status in Jia's mansion, but Jia Mu and the second room negotiated and sent Jia Lian to do it.Jia Lian's wife, Wang Xifeng, is also the niece of Mrs. Wang's direct relative. Jia Lian became more and more confused when he heard the pillow wind, and actually took the matter of the second room as his own.

In this life, because Jia's family did not take part in the murder of Lin Feng, and because Lin Ruhai wanted to preserve some blood for the Jia family because of his wife's sake, Jia's family and the Lin family got closer.Lin Ruhai occasionally mentioned something to Jia Lian, so how much Jia Lian listened to it depended on his luck.Jia Lian was originally a smart person, but because of Lin Ruhai's suggestion, Jia Lian was more knowledgeable than in his previous life, he acted cautiously and understood a lot, and even Wang Xifeng was less likely to commit many crimes under his suppression.Jia Amnesty is a foolish person, he thinks it is respectable to have a capable brother-in-law, and seeing that his brother-in-law is good to his son, he likes to discuss everything with Jia Lian.Looking coldly at the changes in the long house, Mother Jia speculated that now Jia She and his son might not be willing to go to Ping'an Prefecture to do business. Mother Jia saw this and hesitated.

The day passed quickly, and Xia Shouzhong came again the next day. Mother Jia was thinking about the things that the former son and Concubine Zhen had done. As long as it was pierced, the Rongguo Mansion would be a death sentence, and now she had to submit another application. other people.It was rare for Xia Shouzhong to point out a way, and Jia's mother agreed to Xia Shouzhong's conditions.

On this day, Jia's mother ordered Jia She and his son to come to the room to discuss, and wrote a secret letter with Jia She's famous post, asking Jia Lian to set off for Ping'an Prefecture on a certain day.Jia Lian led the order and came out, thinking: Uncle always said that people like us are most afraid of corruption and perverting the law. Going to Ping'an Prefecture this time is not a trivial matter. I don't know what disasters will be caused in the future. I will leave in three days or so. Why don't I quietly ask my uncle for advice? , can you go on this trip?

It's hard for Jia Lian to be intentional this time, and said to Jia's mother, "since I'm going to Ping'an Prefecture for business, I have to buy some new things in the middle of Beijing for easy handling. I don't have to go empty-handed." Yes, so Jia Lian went to the official to pay the money, and took his confidant Xing'er out to buy.After buying all the things, Jia Lian asked Xing'er to send the things back to Rongguo Mansion, but he found a teahouse for dinner.Said it was for dinner, but quietly changed clothes in the teahouse, and came to Lin's mansion alone.

When Jia Lian arrived at Lin's mansion, he didn't go directly to the concierge to deliver the post, but went to the second gate to find Wang Gui and told him what he wanted, and Wang Gui quietly returned to the master.Wang Gui is the son of Mother Wang, and he is smart in handling things. Seeing that the Second Master Lian of the Rongguo Mansion came quietly by himself, and came to look for him first, he guessed that there was something important.So Wang Gui didn't dare to be negligent, and found his mother, Wang Momo, who then went to the inner house to ask Jia Min and Daiyu.

Daiyu also felt that it was unusual, so she ordered Mother Wang to take Jia Lian to Lin Ruhai's study and go back to Lin Ruhai herself.Lin Ruhai was about to come back from get off work and changed into his regular clothes. Hearing that Jia Lian didn't hand over postcards and came to visit at night, he felt that it was unusual, so he went straight to the study.

As soon as the generals met, Jia Lian saluted, and Lin Ruhai dismissed the servants with a wink.Jia Lian came up and bowed, saying, "Uncle, save me."

Seeing Jia Lian's expression, Lin Ruhai helped Jia Lian up and said, "What is Lian'er doing? Get up and speak slowly. Don't panic. The most important thing now is to explain the cause and effect clearly. Don't panic so much that you can't speak clearly." .If I make a mistake or omit a little bit, I'm afraid it will have a big relationship."

After Jia Lian heard this, Fang calmed down a little, and while thinking about it, he said, fearing that there might be some omissions, he detailed the things Jia Mu ordered: how did Jia Mu ask him to discuss with Jia She, and wrote in Jia She's famous post I got a secret letter and asked him to send it to Ping'an Prefecture.And how to tell the road to be careful to keep it secret, don't let irrelevant people know, etc.It's just that Jia's mother didn't tell Jia Lian and his son all the inside information, and Jia Lian didn't know much.It's just that Jia Lian in this life understands a little better than the previous life, and he faintly senses that the matter is important, so he quietly came to ask Lin Ruhai for advice.

After hearing this, Lin Ruhai ordered Wang Gui to send Jia Lian out as before, and be careful on the way so that no one would notice, while thinking about the matter carefully.While whispering a few words in Jia Lian's ear, Jia Lian nodded and smiled.

Because it was almost Haishi after Jia Lian left, Lin Ruhai saw that it was getting late, so he had to discuss countermeasures with his family tomorrow.Unexpectedly, when he returned to the room, not only did Jia Min not go to bed, but even Daiyu and Lin Feng were still in the room.Therefore, Lin Ruhai rarely had to tell Jia Lian's intentions.At the end, he said: "I reckon this matter is not simple, I'm afraid it has something to do with the previous dynasty and the harem. Now that the sage is in power, and the crown prince is keeping a low profile, the only one who wants to act like this is the Seventh Prince."

When Daiyu heard this, she also felt strange. After pondering for a while, her eyes lit up, she raised her head and said, "It's easy to understand the fact that the sage hid Iron Net Mountain. I only heard about it a while ago. Many of the palace servants were released, and some were still transferred to work in other palaces, I thought it was strange at the time, but now, I understand the intention."

Lin Ruhai listened, glanced at Daiyu admiringly, and said with a smile: "Our Yu'er's agility even admires me. Yu'er is right, and the Jia family's incident may also stem from this." So everyone in the Lin family paid close attention. After a detailed analysis: the first batch of palace servants released from Concubine Zhen's palace were originally rough envoys, and their backgrounds were not very good, so naturally they would not know any secrets.Therefore, letting these people out is to confuse people with ulterior motives, and make people feel that Zhen Guifei did not commit a serious crime, otherwise these palace officials should have all been executed.

Later, those who got up and returned to other palaces and still worked as errands had some influence in their families, but these people lost their way, so they were put on errands in other palaces.It doesn't matter whether these womb people are dead or alive, so let them still work as errands, which is the second level of confusion: since all the palace people in Zhen's palace have recovered, it turns out that the people who colluded with Zhen's family are afraid It will relax its vigilance, give birth to hope, and come out to move again.

In the end, the last group of palace servants who entered the cold palace with the Zhen family was Jia Yuanchun's group.These palace people were originally Zhen's confidantes, and they knew a lot of secrets, so it was very easy to use these people to contain the people behind them.The families behind these palace people and the Zhen family were originally on the same boat, both prosperous and bad, if someone came forward to release people like Jia Yuanchun, I'm not afraid that the families behind these people would not be devoted to this person who worked secretly.

After clarifying these interests, Jia Min sighed: "The people behind this are really inferior. They can take over the power under Zhen's hands at this moment, but don't know if they have fallen into the sage's plan to lure the snake out of the cave?"

Lin Ruhai laughed and said: "It should be like this. It is for nothing that these people messed up the court. In the end, it is the people of the world who will suffer. Since some people are ready to make a move, it is necessary to send them a yellow bird."

The family discussed for a while, and went to bed separately. The next day, Lin Feng still went to Xie Shangshu's house to study with the third emperor's grandson, and Lin Ruhai still went to work.Two days later, Jia Lian still set off according to the original plan, and everything seemed to be no different from the original plan.More than a month later, the Zhen family and other palace people in the cold palace contracted the epidemic and died. Jia Yuanchun was diagnosed by the Taitai Hospital and was in good health, so he returned to work.

Although Jia's house kept the secrets tight, because Lin Feng was the companion of the third emperor's grandson, the Lin family still found out that the person who went to contact Jia's house was Xia Shouzhong, the eunuch of Liugongdu.After hearing the news, Daiyu pondered for a moment before she understood the truth: there are two very powerful eunuchs in the harem, one is Dai Quan, who even came to the Lin family to reward the screen; the other is Xia Shouzhong.

Refusing Daiyu's analysis, Xia Shouzhong might have secretly taken refuge with the seventh prince at this moment. After the new emperor ascended the throne in the previous life, he went to Jia's house to announce that Jia Yuanchun's imperial decree was Xia Shouzhong.Later, when Jia's family became increasingly depressed, it was Xia Shouzhong who went to Jia's house several times to blackmail him.From this point of view, the one who secretly recruited Concubine Zhen to leave power after she lost power was probably the Seventh Prince.But the father also felt that it was the seventh prince who secretly tried to rescue Jia Yuanchun and others, and he didn't need to worry about it, so Daiyu put the matter aside.

Not to mention how it is in Ping'an Prefecture, but to say that it is March, spring flowers are blooming, and finally the day of the general election has arrived.
