Red Mansions Dressed Into the Forest

An official candidate who has a firm stand and promises not to change his family just because of a little benefit, and most importantly, can win against King Zhongshun, or at least not lose the wind...is not easy to find.

After having a heart-to-heart talk with his father, the Seventh Prince was not only ashamed and wronged by his father, mother and concubine because of the private affairs of their young couple, but also keenly discovered... His father is not worried about anything, but worried and worried.

There is no time when the emperor is idle!

However, when the Northwest War broke out again in the past, when some passes in the Northwest fell into disrepair, and the barracks in the Northwest Camp were quite dilapidated, his father didn't seem so worried.

The seventh prince must share his father's worries out of emotion and reason, especially when he made a little mistake before.

After the princes get married, they usually let their father be thrown into the Six Departments Yamen to learn how to deal with ~government~ affairs and assign tasks: a while ago, the Seventh Prince was sent to the Ministry of Rites.

After discussing with his mother, concubine and uncle, the Seventh Prince started the road of "long-sleeved and good at dancing" - if he went to the official department, he really wouldn't dare to do it.

The princes are inevitably superior by nature, and the seventh prince can be regarded as the more friendly one among the brothers.

This year is not a big competition year, so the Ministry of Rites is not too busy.The education and examinations of the clan's children in this dynasty were in charge of the clan mansion, but a large part of the details were carried out by the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

Taking advantage of his position, the Seventh Prince started with the elders of the clan and visited them one by one to get acquainted. If he could get a few more words of advice, wouldn't he be making money?

Little did he know that this move made the Holy Majesty quite unhappy: he had done similar things before he took the throne, but that was when he had already confirmed that the dragon chair was in sight!

It's okay to learn from me, but you have to find the right time.

As soon as the Holy One frowned, he stopped going to Concubine Shu's Palace.

Concubine Shu quickly figured out something.She immediately let the sister-in-law who came to visit the palace to spread the news, and when she saw her son, she said: something is not right, we have to change it.

The Seventh Prince listened to the persuasion, and hurriedly "returned to the shore".Concubine Shu was pleasantly surprised to find that the Holy Majesty had come again.But from the beginning to the end, the Holy Majesty didn't say anything to Concubine Shu or the Seventh Prince because of this.

This is not a good sign.Whether it's praise or scolding, the Holy Majesty has to have something to say to Lao Qi.It happened that the seventh concubine came to complain—in fact, it was more appropriate to say that she was complaining, so Concubine Shu solemnly told the emperor about this private matter.

Didn't the father and son have a good chat afterwards?

Although the seventh prince was a little frustrated and aggrieved, he could already understand the painstaking efforts of his mother and concubine, and at the same time, he was able to figure out the father's thoughts when the father and son were talking.

Even the emperor father can't do anything to the emperor's grandfather, the seventh prince is quite self-conscious: if there is no holy order, the northwest is not a place for him to manage, so why not continue to focus on King Zhongshun.

Careful investigation in King Zhongshun's lair, what if we can follow the vines and find out the details of Taifei Ling's family?

Among the people sent to the southwest, a few were "glorious", and the rest were able to persevere, but the news sent back was not exhaustive, and if anyone wanted to dig deeper, the Seventh Prince's people would encounter a "natural disaster* *".

Because the officials in the Southwest, apart from those who belong to the loyal and obedient king, are mostly protecting themselves, leaving the princes' confidants with no help.

The encounters of the princes' subordinates were similar.

After the princes got together again, they reached a complete agreement: the Southwest must be moved... Then they went through the resumes of the officials who could be transferred to the Southwest.

Obviously, Lin Hai is on the list of brothers, and the ranking is still very high.

In fact, King Bei Jing didn't come here to find Lin Hai for a drink and a chat today.He came out from the Ministry of War and walked on foot for a while because of something on his mind, just in time to bump into the Seventh Prince who came out from the Ministry of Rites.

I met King Zhongshun at the Ministry of War today, and King Beijing's face...you can imagine it.

The Seventh Prince knew at a glance that something was wrong.The relationship between the two has always been very good, seeing this situation, the Seventh Prince must ask clearly.

By the way, in the generation of the Holy One, the throne of the pinnacle of beauty has always been firmly held by King Yizhong.

When it comes to the generation of princes, seriously speaking, the fifth prince is the most handsome, he is full of masculine handsomeness; the seventh prince is neutral, although his facial features are not too delicate, he looks very seductive...

King Beijing Jing prefers this style the most!Don't forget that Baoyu also has an indisputable and delicate appearance.

But King Beijing didn't do anything to Baoyu, let alone the Seventh Prince.To put it bluntly, I just like you, so I treat you well.It can't be compared with King Zhongshun's blatant "sensual desire" appreciation...it can't be compared at all.

Speaking of seeing a good buddy, King Bei Jing naturally didn't hide it.

The Seventh Prince also hated King Zhongshun's old problems. The two brothers scolded King Zhongshun all the way, and then naturally talked about the topic of "how to deal with King Zhongshun, or make him suffer a lot".

Asking Lin Hai to be transferred to the southwest is also in line with King Jing's wishes.After counting, it happened that the two governors of Yunnan and Guizhou, as well as the chief envoy of Yunnan, were almost full. As long as the Holy Majesty could nod, it would not be difficult to get Mr. Lin to work there.

As soon as they thought about it, they planned to meet Lin Hai and talk about it.In other words, today's small gathering was completely impromptu.

With the personal explanations of a prince and a county king, what else can Lin Hai say: It makes it look like he has been appointed to the Southwest next...

Of course it’s no problem to go to the Southwest, but he “airborne” King Zhongshun’s lair alone?It won't take long for his wife and daughter to collect his body.

"Well... Actually, I can't say for sure." Xiao Jin muttered, "If King Zhongshun can't think about it alone, he will feel sorry for the fragrance and cherish the jade."

Lin Haiping said calmly: "Xiao Jin, you have learned badly too..."

Shaking his chubby body, Xiao Jin begged for mercy, "Don't dare."

Lin Hai paused for a moment before saying something in his heart, "Yungui is the home of the loyal and obedient king, and I will not agree easily without the right to appoint personnel and mobilize troops."

As for these two rights, the two nobles in front of them have no control over them.Therefore, no matter whether Lin Hai agrees or not, or how to bargain, it is not the two of them who have to deal with it.

Besides, this time at the wine table because of "talking speculatively", he was able to handle such a big event. In the future, if these two ask for anything, should he or should he not?

Xiao Jin was very considerate of Lin Hai, and at this time he proposed another possibility, "Even if the benefits are enough to tempt you, if you accept these two, will you be considered as the generals of these two in the future?"

"I will listen to whoever gives the hat." Lin Hai smiled, "But they can't give me my hat. Besides, although these two are young, they are not so overconfident. King Yizhong's means, maybe these two Knows better than me."

Xiao Jin quite agrees with this point, "So it is good to suffer more when you are young."

"Only when you hit a wall will you learn to be good. Princes are not frivolous, so you can rest easy."

As Lin Hai continued chatting with the seventh prince, King Beijing, he had a new idea, "This is the beginning of testing what I and King Yizhong are going to do?"

Xiao Jin said: "I think so too. They seem to be trying to find out what King Zhong said."

Think about the letters between him and King Yizhong every half a month, which fall into the eyes of those who care... It’s not easy to ask King Yizhong, can’t you get some information from him?

Lin Hai couldn't help feeling emotional, "It turns out that I will also become a sweet potato one day."

Xiao Jin said seriously: "That's because you are too unconscious."

Lin Hai didn't argue with Xiao Jin, but raised his head slightly and said to the Seventh Prince and King Bei Jing, "These days, I just listen to the prince complaining about King Guangqing."

After all, King Beijing came back from the northwest, and he couldn't help but sneer when he heard the words, "That one spends all day trying to figure out what to do."

The Seventh Prince has also heard about the situation in the Northwest, "The one who is used to not working hard."

King Guangqing is Wang Ziteng's current backer, and it is not surprising that his style is similar: there is no shortage of speculators in any era.

Thinking of this, Lin Hai asked Xiao Jin, "Does King Guangqing know that the Supreme Emperor has a young son?"

"Very likely."

"The Mu family's base camp in the previous dynasty was just outside the pass. The Mu family went in and out all day long. King Guangqing, as a local snake, couldn't see any clues, and he would be sorry for his title of Northwest King. Such a rough calculation, The youngest son of the Supreme Emperor is not only supported by his father, but also supported by King Suduan, King Zhongshun and King Guangqing, so he really has the confidence to challenge the Holy One."

Xiao Jin responded, "So... if you want to be transferred to Southwest, it won't be easy."

This potato is very hot, you can think about it.That's what Xiao Jin means.

"At least in a short period of time, you don't have to worry about getting into trouble with that little highness. How do you know it's a blessing?"

After eating and chatting for a while, the Seventh Prince hurriedly left - he lives in the palace, but there is a gate control.

Beijing Prince's Mansion and the Lin family are also old friends, so they can do a lot of homework: recall the friendship of the ancestors.As soon as the Seventh Prince left, King Bei Jing took the initiative to inform Jia Rong and Liu Xianglian of the situation in the northwest.

Both young men were brought to King Yizhong's side.Liu Xianglian is good at kungfu and has a scheming heart, so there is nothing to worry about; it is Jia Rong's hard work in practicing martial arts that impressed King Beijing deeply.

Jia Rong stayed away from his twisted father, and she really became very motivated.Lin Hai felt relieved that it was not in vain.

The two sat for a while, and King Bei Jing seemed to have enjoyed himself, so he walked out of the box with Lin Hai and prepared to go home.As soon as the two of them left the house one after the other, the confidant of Prince Jing suddenly stepped forward and whispered in the ear of his prince.

King Beijing Jing's expression darkened almost immediately.

Lin Hai couldn't help but look sideways. At this moment, several guards and handsome young men poured in from downstairs, followed by the star-studded... King Zhongshun, and beside King Zhongshun was a beautiful young man whom he had just met once. Son—the youngest son born to the Supreme Emperor and Ling Taifei.

King Zhongshun is obviously very confident: King Beijing and Lin Hai must not know the names and details of the nobles around him.

Probably because he was really full of ambition recently, although King Zhongshun smiled and said nothing, he looked at King Jingjing and Lin Hai with fiery eyes.

Seeing this, Lin Hai just smiled slightly, and said to Xiao Jin in his heart, "He wants to fuck me and Prince Jing."

Xiao Jin was not surprised at all, "In fact, King Zhongshun is interested in many members of the clan. It's just that he dares to think but may not dare to do it."

Lin Hai thought about it carefully, but he still refused to accept it, "You are right."

Back home, Lin Hai obviously felt that...the atmosphere was a bit wrong.He put his arms around his daughter-in-law and the eldest daughter in the other, "What's wrong?"

Daiyu was not in a good mood, "Second Sister didn't come. I posted a post for Second Sister."

The second sister in Daiyu's mouth refers to Yingchun.

Lin Hai asked, "If you have anything to say, you can say it."

Daiyu frowned because of the slight smell of alcohol in her father's mouth, "Second Brother Bao, Sister Baochai, Tanchun Xichun and Sister Xiangyun are all here today. With so many people, how can we hide it from me? It turns out that the second sister is getting married."

Yingchun is slightly older than Baoyu, and it is not too early to talk about marriage in this era.

Lin Hai thought about this time period, Jia She would not sell this concubine daughter for another 5000 taels, would he?Taking a step back, Rongfu still has Jia Lian who had a "big dream".This time, I want to promise to Sun Shaozu, how can Jia Lian agree?

Wang Chan said at this time: "Young girl has a thin skin, and she is saving face for me."

Lin Hai became more and more curious, "Why did it involve you again?"

"The family of Xu, the second girl of the Rong Mansion...cough," Wang Chan confessed in a heartless heart, "is my earliest fiancé...his father."

The wormwood in front of the grave of his wife's earliest fiancé must be half a person tall... The man who is going to marry in the Spring Festival must be at least fifty years old, right?

Wang Chan answered his master's question, "I'm 55. I'm the same age as my father, I remember it clearly. Even though it's filling the house, the age difference is too big."

Being able to get married with Wang Chan's family at the beginning shows how powerful and powerful the family is.No wonder Jia She and Mrs. Xing were so moved that they married off their concubine's daughter.

However... even Baochai, who wanted to fly to the top of the branch, felt that this was definitely not a good match.

Tanchun, Xichun, and Xiangyun are also half helpless and half sympathetic, but Baoyu, apart from sympathy, is a little more involuntarily angry because of fate.

Daiyu said about the attitudes of her cousins, then hugged Lin Hai's arm and said, "Second Brother Lian came to pick him up in person today, and he even asked me to ask Dad how he could mess up this matter. "

Baoyu's reaction was a little bit beyond Lin Hai's expectation: But anger alone is of no use, you are not as good as your cousin who knows how to ask for help.

As for Yingchun, Lin Hai was a little bit "sorrowful for his misfortune, angry for his indisputability"... Before he could answer Daiyu, Wang Chan simply said, "What can I do? Just wait and see! That lord is said to be seriously ill in bed."

"Oh? Still happy?" Daiyu listened, and the frustration on her face became more and more intense, "Mother, I escaped this time, it's hard to guarantee that my uncle and aunt... will do the same trick again." She wanted to say "again I sold it last time," and changed his words in time.

If you can cure the disease, you can't save your life.Similarly, Tanchun, who is not loved by his father or mother, at least makes people dare not underestimate him easily.Therefore, Yingchun's personality does not change, even if she marries into a commoner's family, she will probably be bullied.

Lin Hai touched his daughter's head, "Why don't you go and persuade your second sister."

When Wang Chan heard it, he knew what the master was up to, "The eldest girl has been busy these days, and she hasn't missed her studies yet. After working so hard for so long, it's time to relax."

If you don't try your best, you may not be reconciled. Anyway, sisters... Daiyu nodded in response.

After Daiyu left, Lin Hai vaccinated his daughter-in-law, "I might go to Southwest next year to work."

Wang Chan nodded, "Master is from Suzhou, so it's not easy to supervise Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It seems that there will be no one in Guangdong and Guangxi next year? The master in the Northwest will not be able to go, leaving the Northeast, Central Plains, and Southwest. Thinking about it, it is really better to go to the Southwest, which is more convenient." Congratulations."

Lin Hai tapped his daughter-in-law's forehead lightly, and kissed her, "You...why are you always so smart."

Although the master smelled of alcohol, he was still very happy.

Wang Chan threw himself into Lin Hai's arms, "Master, that family," which means the family of his first fiancé in the past, "it's okay, I remember that there is a concubine who matches the age of the second girl from Rongfu... If the master is willing to help, I can talk to Xiang, anyway, it is a joy."

Lin Hai put his arms around Wang Chan and said, "I'll remind you a few words later. If it's not serious, let's not be such bad people."

He is always bad at dampening his wife's enthusiasm.Although he knew that it was because of Daiyu's face that the daughter-in-law was so caring, and in fact it was also because of his own face.

On the second day, Lin Hai took advantage of his lunch break to call Jia Lian to him, so that he could "educate" him.A quarter of an hour later, Jia Lian said goodbye happily.

In fact, apart from reminding Jia Lian that he can marry his concubine sister to the other party's concubine, Lin Hai also pointed out to him: If the old lady can't stop the person you can't cure, you can go ask your mother, don't be afraid of things Small but disturbed the purity of the imperial concubine.

Jia Lian entered the palace through Baoqin's parents passing the news... already familiar with each other once.

Yuan Chun, who got the news, really called Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang into the palace together... When she left the palace, Mrs. Wang looked as usual, while Mrs. Xing blushed with embarrassment.

A few days later, Yingchun was indeed pointed out by Yuanchun to the concubine of that family.

Jia She only muttered a few words in his room, while Mrs. Xing secretly scolded Yuan Chun for meddling in her own business...

Sister Feng had admired the expressions of her father-in-law and mother-in-law before, and she smiled without saying a word: They were all going to celebrate, but the dowry difference between marrying a master and marrying a concubine is too much.

Now that Sister Feng is going to watch the housekeeping with Li Wan, if there are too many Yingchuns or too few to match her hands, of course she will not regret it.

Turning her head, she went to Li Wan to discuss how to entertain her uncle Lin Hai and cousin Daiyu——Wang Chan was still a few days away from confinement, so he would not come this time.

Just the night before Lin Hai was going to be a guest at Rongguo Mansion, he received a letter from King Yizhong: The beginning of the article is to ask him, have you met the national teacher?The national teacher is indeed an expert, you'd better take what he said seriously, at least half of it.

This is to say... King Yizhong knows that he has a "good brother".

Lin Hai replied casually on the letter paper: Not only have I met the national teacher, but I have also met your younger brother.Your nephew doesn't know his little uncle.

The author has something to say: two in one.
