Red Mansions Dressed Into the Forest

Jia Daishan couldn't let the prince sit and wait while he was alive.

When Jia's mother heard about it, she let him go quickly. Jia Zheng was quite helpless: he wanted to have a good chat with his brother-in-law.

When his brother-in-law first came to Beijing, he thought that his brother-in-law would be unemployed at home, and that his brother-in-law would not come to ask for help, so he was a little cold.When his brother-in-law arrived at the household department, he didn't want to come to please him right away. It's been almost a month since he came and went, and his brother-in-law also continued... It's better to hit the sun than to pick up the sun. Today, I met him and I should talk about it. Why did I think the prince came to the door of my brother-in-law's house... …

Not to mention Jia Zheng, even Wang Ziteng didn't expect Lin Hai to be appointed to the Ministry of Households by the Holy Lord. He regretted it even more than Jia Zheng: Lin Hai was expected to become his own.He wanted to sink into Lin Hai's temperament, not rush to make a move, so that he could "use it in the future" or "be a helping hand", and a cooked duck flew away without paying attention...

Fortunately, Lin Hai didn't know Wang Ziteng's thoughts, otherwise he would have laughed his teeth off: "It's very useful"... Lin Hai would be farting when the emperor said this.

Originally, the scholar-bureaucrats who had been mixed to a certain extent had nothing to do with the imperial power, otherwise, where did the "rebellious officials and thieves" who usurped power and throne in the previous dynasty come from?

Lin Hai came from modern times, and he didn't care about painting big cakes, even if the emperor himself painted big cakes for him.Wang Ziteng's official position is not stable, so of course he wants to fool people into joining him... I just don't know if Jia Yucun regrets it now.

What does Jia Yucun regret?

A down-and-out Jinshi, relying on a letter of recommendation from her student and her father, and settling the murder case for Wang Ziteng's nephew, completely climbed up to a first-rank official. I got in touch with the nobleman behind Wang Ziteng...

Jia Yucun had nothing dissatisfied, at least not dissatisfied with it.

What worries him now is that the Zhen family, one of the top snakes in Jinling, is not very satisfied with him.

But he said that the Zhen family and the Jia family have a close relationship, but the Zhen family and the Wang family are not friendly, and there is a slight discord because of business matters.

In the past, Wang Ziteng and Zhen Yingjia might have taken a step back tacitly, but not now, Wang Ziteng needs to use money to secure his position. Although he has never shown any merit, in fact he has indeed helped his niece Yuan Chun.

Jia Yucun is the capable confidant who helped Wang Ziteng earn money in Jinling, and there is no "one".The three-year Qing magistrate's one hundred thousand snowflake silver is for nothing?

Because of his wife's pregnancy, Zhen Yingjia finally "raised her eyebrows": her confidence and ambition have also returned.

He wants to use money to pave the way for his daughter, especially himself—yes, he wants to find a good marriage for his daughter in the capital. Let's just get by.

Jia Yucun would pull sides, but between the Wang family and the Zhen family...he couldn't find a balance in this kind of real conflict of interests.He didn't say that the Wang family was his benefactor, but the Zhen family and Jia Yucun couldn't afford to offend him.At least he had been a teacher for Zhen Baoyu, and he had seen and heard about the Zhen family's family background.

Let me say with conscience, a person with a clean family background is actually a humble scholar with no family background at all. It is really difficult to be an official.

It is basically impossible to do it without looking for a mountain or without the appreciation of noble people.Don't forget, Jia Yucun was once a clean and honest parent official...and then he was dismissed.Jia Yucun was able to stand up today because he found a way and hugged his thigh.

In other words, after suffering from Zhen Yingjia, Jia Yucun thought about it and wrote a letter to Wang Ziteng who was touring the northwestern provinces to explain his situation.

"If you can't fight, find your parents" is not the only thing that Jia Yucun can do. Zhen Yingjia also writes letters to find relatives and friends so that she can build up her reputation...

So when the family of three left Rongfu to rush home, Lin Hai received a letter from Zhen Yingjia while sitting in the carriage.He opened it and looked at it, smiling while reading it, and handed the letter to Wang Chan after reading it, so that his daughter-in-law would be happy too.

Wang Chan took it over and took a look: Oh, the word is so big, no wonder the master gave it to me after reading it in the carriage.

She knew that Lin Hai and Zhen Yingjia had a good friendship: when the master was seriously ill in bed, Zhen Yingjia also went to visit.After the master recovered, he gave the prescription to Zhen Yingjia.

Daiyu leaned to her father's side and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Lin Hai also told the truth, "Your Uncle Zhen is complaining to your father and me."

Daiyu was taken aback, "Ah? Why?"

Lin Hai teased his daughter, "What do you think?"

Daiyu didn't even think about it, "For money?"

Lin Hai laughed: My daughter really understands something.

At this moment, Wang Chan just finished reading the letter, so he asked, "What kind of regulations is the master?"

Zhen Yingjia said in the letter: His wife and daughter will go to Beijing soon, and I hope Lin Hai can take care of them a little bit.

In the original book, the ending of Zhen's family was also ransacking, which fell earlier than Jia's family.But in Lin Hai's view, Zhen Yingjia is more clear than Jia Zheng, and the root cause of the decline of the Zhen family is probably "following the wrong person".Anyway, it's still too early to talk about seizing the heir apparent, the princes are only in their early twenties, so there is really no need to deliberately stay away from the Zhen family in order to avoid risks.

So Lin Hai said, "Help if you can. But I guess the mother and daughter of the Zhen family will go to the Xunjia Mansion first if they have something to do. Let's just watch the excitement."

Wang Chan thought for a while before asking, "We don't care about marriage?"

The couple also deliberately did not avoid Daiyu when they spoke.

Daiyu tugged on her father's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Take care of the marriage? What's going on?" But she didn't question her stepmother Wang Chan at all.

Daiyu could feel it: her father treated her stepmother very well, and her stepmother tried her best to treat her well in return.So she will try her best to get along well with her stepmother, even if she doesn't embarrass her father.

Seeing that Daiyu was interested, Wang Chan explained the words: there are many dandies from famous families in Beijing, and they just look at the bright fire pit, and they are also those girls who have just entered the capital and don't know the basics, such as the Zhen family. This kind of family background is quite suitable.

In fact, Wang Chan wanted to say one or two more words, such as Tiansheng... That's it, Daiyu is still young, so Wang Chan swallowed it back.

What Lin Hai thought was: Zhen Yingjia's daughter-in-law is also a mother after all, if she is blinded by the power... don't mess with the capital with her IQ.

Wang Chan understood Lin Hai's unfinished meaning, and smiled without saying a word.And Daiyu blinked her eyes, "Anyway, Mom and Dad know it well."

Rong Mansion and Lin Mansion were not far apart, the carriage passed through the gate of their own house and stopped in the courtyard, Lin Hai had a daughter-in-law in one hand and a daughter in the other hand, as soon as he stood in front of the Chuihua gate of his house, he saw Bao Huaishang leading the two princes to appear in front of him.

Lin Hai's family of three quickly saluted.

The eyes of the two princes also lingered on Daiyu for a while.

Wang Chan is the cousin of the two princes, and also the aunt of the ninth prince, so she is quite casual when talking to the prince, "Is this negotiated?"

The Ninth Prince smiled and said, "Fifth Brother dragged me out without saying a word..." This was also thanks to Lin Hai becoming their brother's cheap cousin, otherwise it would be even more difficult to come to the door.

How many days has the fifth prince's wife been pregnant?How can we find out based on the current medical level?Because the fifth prince felt very good after drinking the medicine, he greeted his father and brought his ninth brother to thank him. At the same time... he had something to say.

However, Lin Hai always felt that the timing was a bit delicate, and the two princes might not only be...one came to thank him, while the other was to accompany him.

After hearing the Ninth Prince's answer, Lin Hai could verify his guess.

Lin Hai invited the two princes into the study, and Wang Chan took Daiyu to leave for the time being: she had to go back to her room to freshen and change clothes, and then hurriedly recruited people to prepare dinner...

But he said that the guests and hosts were seated in the study, and after a few pleasantries, the fifth prince solemnly thanked, "Thanks to Master Lin's prescription, not only have I slept well and eaten well these few days, but my energy is also stronger than before."

The Ninth Prince put down the tea bowl at this time, and said with a smile, "Fifth Brother."

The fifth prince also laughed, "Ninth brother, are you impatient?" He looked at Lin Haidao again, "Master Lin turned over the accounts involving that money today."

Lin Hai could understand clearly: the so-called sum of money was about Wang Ziteng's deception, which caused his former household minister Youshilang to be imprisoned, and the appropriation that should have been used for the repair of the Northwest Camp.

But this morning he asked the clerk to fetch the files from the warehouse of the household department, and in the evening the two princes came to discuss the matter... He immediately lifted his spirits.

Mr. Lin is on the ninth brother's side, and he is half on his side... The fifth prince doesn't want to see Lin Hai ruined in this big case.

"Actually, the money was allocated by the Ministry of Accounts."

Even if it is a special appropriation, it has to be exploited once in the Ministry of Households, and then another layer or two is peeled off at the Ministry of War and the governor. ~Governance is still considered the result of Qingming.

It is said that the amount of money is put aside, but whether it is dialed or not is really a qualitative difference.The dossier that Lin Hai read was also a bit vague, but the meaning on the paper was that the payment was not made.Combined with what the fifth prince said, Lin Hai knew that the money must be swallowed up by a big man.

Things that he can think of in an instant, there is no reason why the Holy Spirit can't see through.

At this moment, the Fifth Prince pointed up with a secretive look on his face.

Lin Hai understood in seconds: The Supreme Emperor? !

But at the same time, he didn't understand: If the Supreme Emperor wants to use money, he can just send his servants out to hug him. Why do he have to swallow the money from the Ministry of Accounts?

Unless the Supreme Emperor is also covering up for someone.

The Ninth Prince suddenly sighed softly, "It's not difficult to know the whole story, but...it's just that everyone knows the truth but can't pursue it."

Now that it is said that it is not difficult to know the truth, Lin Hai is really curious.He intuitively felt that the big man behind this incident was related to Wang Ziteng.

And the insider who is willing to explain to him, there really is a ready-made... the abolished prince Yizhong Wang.

But rushing to send a message to this prince is too smug... Lin Hai suddenly looked forward to the chance encounter with King Yizhong, who had never seen the end of the dragon.

It's already noon now, he was thinking with his head down, and walked out of the household office, and when he looked up again, he saw King Yizhong standing under the sun and smiling at him.

Lin Hai was a little helpless when he saw the ceremony: he sincerely hoped that his "All wishes come true" skill would not be activated at this time.

The author has something to say: If there is no accident, I will enter V on Friday, 5.27, and the [-]D update is guaranteed. I will try to write more (new chapters should appear in the afternoon).Still the same old saying, I implore everyone to support the original version, the more friends you have, the more motivation you will have, and my article is not long.

In other words, I really can't write long articles... I tried to challenge it a few times, but all failed.

By the way, about Baoyu's character after the Jia family ransacked the house, see my previous article on Jia Lian in "The Red Chamber Quickly Traveling Embarrassment".

In all fairness, Baoyu's nature is considered good among the dandies, especially when compared with his father's generation and peers.But this is also a bad boy, and if the bad boy wants to change for the better, the key is one word, abuse.When he experienced the malice of the world for himself, to put it bluntly, he kept stumbling until he had to reflect and consider the future.

However, after a bear child is abused, there are usually two situations, either to escape from reality, or to face reality from now on.The precious jade in this article is the latter.
