The Hulk of the Red Chamber

Shi Hong soon discovered that the role played by Zhen Baoyu was obviously not as pure as Jia Baoyu.Because of Jia Baoyu's "natural vision", she was raised by the Jia family almost ignorant of world affairs. In a certain sense, she can be called stupid.But Zhen Baoyu is obviously much more sensible than Jia Baoyu. Of course, Zhen Baoyu has more experience than Jia Baoyu.

Although the Jia family has always had no real power, but the other side of having no real power is that they don't have much right and wrong. Therefore, the men of the Jia family can eat, drink, whore and gamble as much as they want, and can play all kinds of tricks.But the Zhen family is different. Although the Zhen family is the local emperor in the south of the Yangtze River, in the eyes of others, it is called a single-handed overlord, but in fact, the Zhen family also has many political enemies. Basically, no matter which emperor is in power, the officials there are no matter how many The Zhen family was a little unresponsive.Especially since ascending to the throne today, in order to prevent the Zhen family from becoming big again and weaken the power of the Zhen family, although it is not easy to do anything on the surface, but behind the scenes, they use any means.Although Zhen Baoyu was well protected, he still knew something.After he entered the capital, Zhen Tiren has already regarded him as an adult, and will tell him some more private things, and he follows the Twelve Princes, not only to support his own family, but also as the Zhen family. A bridge to communicate with the Twelve Princes.

Therefore, although Zhen Baoyu didn't talk much to others at the dinner party, it can be seen that his attention has not left the people present, and he is guessing and trying to figure out the relationship between the people present, and speculates what it represents. relationship between families.However, those present are either royalists or neutrals, Zhen Baoyu wasted his thoughts in vain.However, Feng Ziying also complained a little secretly, Jia Baoyu, you just came here by yourself, why did you bring this person here too, isn't this intentional to cause trouble for him!Therefore, at the banquet, Xue Pan deliberately only talked about Fengyue and nothing else. Xue Pan made a lot of jokes, which made people laugh.

Shi Hong returned home reeking of alcohol. As soon as he entered the door, he heard that the master told him to go to the study after he came back. Clothes, and then went to the study.

Shi Ding is actually writing alone at the moment. To be honest, although Shi Ding can’t be said to be a standard rough person, after all, historians, even in the past, were also the so-called landlord class, and their children could read and write. At that time, historians had already made a fortune. Although Shi Ding did not read a lot of poetry and books, he was proficient in some literature and ink, but that was all. In the cabinet, Shi Ding's knowledge was not enough. In the memorial, other people wished they had to write four Li six, but Shi Ding was very straightforward, most of them were in plain language, but the Holy One felt that he was straight and straightforward.Although Shi Ding said he was paying close attention to his son's homework, he himself was not very interested in it, but now he leaned over and splashed ink with all his heart, and the paper was already dripping with ink. Tao Te Ching.

Shi Hong stood with his hands down and watched without making a sound, knowing that Shi Ding finally put down his pen, let out a sigh of relief, turned his head to look at him, and then bowed to salute.Shi Ding took a paperweight and pressed it on the paper, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and said, "How is today?"

Shi Hong talked to the people who were going to the banquet, and then said: "Feng Ziying is a shrewd person, that cousin of the Jia family is still a little naive, but it can be seen that the Jia family wants to be a fool, otherwise However, my aunt would not agree with him going out with that Baoyu from the Zhen family. Well, there are fewer people in the Zhen family who can use them now, otherwise, Zhen Baoyu would not be allowed to do these things. You know, Zhen Baoyu is young , if these things are not involved, maybe nothing will happen in the future, if it is involved, the Holy One is not a kind person blindly!"

"Zhen Tiren was knocked out of his head before. Although he found something wrong now, he can be regarded as a thief ship and can't get off!" Shi Ding said bluntly, "Now the Zhen family has to go all the way to the dark. We can only hope that things will come true! If Zhen Baoyu doesn't show up, how will the Zhen family win the trust of the Twelve Princes? Zhen Baoyu has been in the Zhen family for more than ten years, and now sacrifice is a matter of course!"

Shi Hong's heart trembled. When he used to read novels and watch TV, he saw many masters and young ladies rebelling against the arrangement of the family, and even doing some things like exterminating relatives. If they want to fight back, they are simply ungrateful to the extreme. This kind of cruel and tender life is common no matter where they are.Although Zhen Baoyu is the favored youngest son, that's all. He is not the hope of the Zhen family. The Zhen family places all their hopes on their grandson. Therefore, Zhen Baoyu's life and death are not so important.If the great event is successful, even if Zhen Baoyu dies, he will be honored after death. If he is alive, he will be reused because of it. If he fails, the Zhen family will naturally be buried with his family. Slave, it's better to die.

Shi Ding said slowly: "Hong'er, you have been studying since you were a child, and you have read too many sage books, so you will inevitably soften your heart. However, this kind of thing, there is no room for soft-heartedness. Now the Zhen family is just dying, but they don't feel it yet! On the other hand, the Jia family..."

Shi Ding shook his head, and continued: "Without that strength, just keep your head down and live in peace, but you want to get involved in it, thinking you can have a good time, my aunt is really getting old, and she is getting more and more confused! Fortunately, the Jia family All the men have no skills, and they don’t have the ability to intervene, but, even if it’s just a thought, it’s despicable! Although the Holy Majesty is a face-saving person, but if the Holy Majesty wants to rectify any family, he can only do it. Need a hint, of course it can make people suffer from being dumb, and I have to thank the Lord Long En!" At this point, Shi Ding became a little uneasy, Shi Taijun is his aunt, and she took care of their brothers before. When Jia Daishan was around, the historians did take advantage of the Jia family.It's just that historians don't care about ordinary things, but historians can't bury Jia's family with such a big event.It’s not that Shi Ding never persuaded Shi Taijun, it’s just that Shi Taijun has been the old lord of the Jia family for five or 60 years, and his feelings for the Shi family’s natal family are far less than those for the Jia family. Since Jia Daishan passed away, he has been obsessed with the revitalization of the Jia family. Seeing an opportunity, there is no reason to give up easily. Besides, Shi Ding can't make it too clear, lest he will be guilty of not reporting what he knew.

Shi Hong admired the old fox Shi Ding very much. Isn’t that the way it is? In the end, the Jia family ended up like that. I can't say it clearly, even if the sentence is a capital crime, it is not wronged. In the end, the most serious thing is nothing more than exile. With Jia Rong as a junior, both Jia Amnesty and Jia Zhen died outside.However, everyone has to say that the Holy Majesty has been extremely magnanimous to the Jia family, and it can be said that he has exhausted his benevolence.

Shi Ding then carefully instructed Shi Hong, telling him to go out and have fun in the future, but to talk less and stay away from Jia's and Zhen's. Shi Hong quickly complied, and then went back.

Shi Hong's life was not smooth sailing. Within a few days, he received news that Lin Ruhai had contracted a cold. It was just a minor ailment at first, but within a few days, he was actually bedridden.

Most of the time, the Ministry of Rites is the Qingshui Yamen, and there are not many affairs. It is said that in a sense, it is a good place for the elderly.But Lin Ruhai's foundation is poor, and a series of accidents in the past few years also caused his body to suffer a near-destructive blow. Although he has been carefully adjusted and maintained, it is like a broken glass. Even if you pour water into it, the water will Seep out.Lin Ruhai was facing this kind of situation, the wind and cold was just a small introduction, which brought out the old troubles in his body before, so it seemed particularly menacing.

The Holy Majesty specially sent imperial physicians to consult Lin Ruhai. The medical skills of the imperial physicians are all good. However, in order to protect themselves, most of the imperial physicians adhere to the creed that if a minor illness becomes a serious illness, it is their own ability to cure it. Of course.If it is a serious illness, they will naturally have a way to make it a terminal illness. They are not the same as their colleagues in later generations. In order to promote some imported medicine, they want you to spend as much money as possible from head to toe, from the inside to the outside. Doing inspections or something is just to shirk his responsibility as much as possible.

Lin Ruhai is an important minister, and his status is not low in the eyes of the Holy Majesty, otherwise, the Holy Majesty would not have personally sent the top leaders of the Imperial Hospital.These imperial physicians are all weather-beaten people. Once they checked the pulse and dialectically, they knew that Lin Ruhai's inner vitality was about to be emptied, almost as if the oil was exhausted and the lamp was dry. Now, he must tell the truth That's enough. Therefore, the prescribed prescription is the kind of warm and tonic prescription that is stable and stable. Slowly replenish the vitality, just drag it slowly, and after this winter, you can always survive for a while.

Lin Daiyu was not informed of the truth, and only thought that Lin Ruhai was suffering from the cold, but she still waited on the sick bed every day. Lin Ruhai looked at her daughter, thinking that her daughter was not married yet, so she couldn't help feeling a little more desperate to survive.

Shi Hong came to visit Lin Ruhai, a teacher, and his future father-in-law with some medicinal materials.The Lin family had long regarded Shi Hong as his son-in-law. As soon as Shi Hong came, they rushed to report. Lin Ruhai happened to be in good spirits, so they saw him lying on the bed.
