Red Mansions: No Tears

?But Zhao Hua is the daughter of the royal family after all. Even if she has no choice, she can't just find a young man to marry. How, what is the character, how good is the talent and learning, but it is not possible to draw a conclusion based on a few words of a person, not to mention that Zhao Hui also knows that Lin Yu is Jiang Ke's future brother-in-law, so he may not be able to replace him. Say a lot of good things.

So this time they met, Zhao Hui and Zhao Hua brothers and sisters each had a ruler in their hearts, not only to measure whether Zhao Hua and Lin Yu had the fate, but also to measure whether Lin Yu was worthy of being a part of them. Ke was also judged by these people for a long time before he finally broke into the circle of children of their aristocratic family, but what about Lin Yu?In fact, the three people present were quite looking forward to it.

Jiang Ke dragged Lin Yu into this elegant room, and after introducing the three present to Lin Yu, Lin Yu felt a sigh in his heart: Sure enough, what kind of environment raises what kind of people, the sons and brothers who come out of the palace are considered to be wearing clothes. No matter how ordinary she looks, she can't hide her extravagance.

Looking around, isn't it so! ?It turned out that it was Zhao Hua's elder brother Zhao Hui who ordered people to lead Lin Daiyu to the apartment, and the other two sat on the left and right sides, vaguely looking like he was the leader, of course it was because of their unequal status.

Niu Shan and Cheng Huai'an's identities are as high as the sky, but they are descendants of aristocratic families, while Zhao Hui is a serious member of the royal family, and before they got married, the emperor granted him the title of Duke of Zhen. Cheng Huai'an, who was able to obtain the title of marquis by relying on his mother's face, is naturally higher than one level, but their respect for Zhao Hui is probably due to more than one reason.

"Since we got to know each other by fate today, and we will become classmates again soon, you don't have to be overly cautious, you can say and do what you want, anyway, we are usually straightforward, after all, status is there , If you have to be more scruples about everything, then you can hardly talk." Niu Shan picked up the cup and first expressed his kindness to Lin Yu.

"Thank you...uh~ Brother Niu..." Lin Yu paused nervously, and then used a polite and unfamiliar title.

"Hey! Hey! Don't call me big brother. Among the few of us here, Guangheng is the oldest, followed by Shu En. Zixu and I are about the same age, but...it happens that he is two or three older It's just a month." Niu Shan shook his hands repeatedly and laughed.

"It doesn't matter who is the oldest? Lin Yu is the youngest on the left and right." Cheng Huai'an interjected.

"We are all commensurate with the courtesy of the same generation, but Lin Yu has not yet reached the weak crown, so there is no word to use, so let's call you Ayu, what do you think?" Zhao Hui said.

"It's just a title, brother Zhao thinks it's easy to say." Lin Yu nodded indifferently.

"That's a good way to call him. Unfortunately, I'm used to being called by my first name. I didn't expect such a subtlety. I only know that the elders in the family call him Brother Yu, and the older brothers call him Younger Brother Lin... No The method, the same reason, who told him to be the youngest, and he and our brothers usually play together, so I finally have someone who can hold me down." Jiang Ke echoed Zhao Hui's meaning with a smile.

The topics that men talk about at gatherings will certainly not be about rouge, gouache, jewelry, etc. Most of them tend to care about the trend of the court or the direction of literature, especially those like Jiang Ke who are about to embark on official careers in the future, they pay the most attention to the affairs of the court. Is there anything that could affect their future.

Not to mention Jiang Ke who was originally from a non-political family, Zhao Hui, as a member of the royal family, is much more informed about certain news than Niu Shan and Cheng Huai'an. At this time, he was talking about things in the palace with several people.

"I heard that a few years ago, Concubine Zhen suddenly reported that she was ill. I guess the emperor is probably ready to do something." Zhao Huiru said.

"The emperor wants to touch the Zhen family? But... isn't the emperor afraid that the emperor will be dissatisfied because of this?" Cheng Huai'an asked suspiciously.

"After these years, the emperor's foundation in the previous dynasty has been very solid. No matter how angry the emperor is, he can't move the emperor even a little bit now. At most, he can only play tricks. Since he can't move the emperor, how can the emperor be afraid of him?" Zhao Hui smiled lightly.

"No wonder my old man suddenly said that he was going to resign from office. I think it's not just the Zhen family who wants to touch the emperor?" Niu Shan frowned and said anxiously.

"It's a good thing for him to know how to retreat bravely. Don't be like some people who are stupid and don't know what to do when disaster is imminent." Zhao Hui glanced at Lin Yu while speaking.

"You mean..." Cheng Huai'an understood Zhao Hui's eyes, and he couldn't help looking at Lin Yu.

"What, what's the matter?!" Although Lin Yu didn't have strong political sensitivity, he knew that the Jia family would fall sooner or later, and that all four kings and eight princes would fall, and the Zhen family would fall first, so when he heard When a few people talked about this incident, they felt a little flustered in their hearts, and now they saw that they were all looking at him one by one, and they immediately felt a wave of panic...

"I remember that the Lin family and the Jia family are related by in-laws? Miss Lin lived in the Jia family for a while before? It seems that the two of you haven't gotten close after the death of Miss Lin's mother, Mrs. Jia." Zhao Hui asked calmly.

"Who said that?! My sister and I wish we didn't have this kind of relative! It's just...it's my sister's direct grandmother. How can the blood relationship between them be broken?" Lin Yu retorted hastily, but was helpless sighed.

"Hey! Even brothers can still fight against the wall. It's just the relationship between grandmother and granddaughter. What's there to be afraid of? Besides, who doesn't know that Mrs. Shi has always been partial? His heart is so biased that he doesn't even care about the rules. Now, I don't believe that Ms. Lin's status in Mrs. Shi's heart is higher than that of that family." Niu Shan's family and Jia's family are old friends, and he knows more about the right and wrong of Jia's family than others.

"Ah~ isn't it just such a partiality? It's so biased that you can raise your grandson as a granddaughter in the inner house. A big man raises him who is more tender and delicate than a girl's family. I'm almost ashamed of myself." Lin Yu seemed to have a look on her face replied in shame.

"Pfft!" Cheng Huai'an spit out a mouthful of water, only to see him wipe his mouth with a towel, and said: "Isn't that exaggerated?! I have seen that second master Bao once or twice, without you Are you so delicate? At least you can ride a horse."

"He's fifteen or sixteen years old, and he's tired of being coquettish and coquettish in his grandmother's arms all day long, isn't that considered delicate?! So what if he can ride a horse? Haven't you heard that some girls can also ride a horse and shoot arrows?" of it?" Lin Yu curled his lips and said contemptuously.

"Uh..." Zhao Hui could only be speechless to Lin Yu's rebuttal, because as far as he knew, there was a girl who was good at riding and archery sitting next door...Luo Xinru, although that girl The girl is a little bit special. The Luo family is obviously a family of scholars, but there is a martial artist named Luo Yong, and Luo Yong... Luo Xinru is like her father. Not only Luo Xinru understands these things, but also many girls from families of generals. One or two, so he really dare not say that he has never seen such a girl.

"Although it's a bit exaggerated, but Jia Baoyu now lives in that grand view garden, and several cousins ​​and cousins ​​live together. As long as the gate of the garden is closed at night, it means that idlers are not allowed to enter there. Living in the inner house is not too much." Niu Shan said with a smile.

"That's why my younger sister is smart, and she never lived in the garden from the beginning to the end. If anyone dares to say that she is not, I will dare to turn my face and deny anyone." Lin Yu raised his chin and glanced at Jiang Ke from the corner of his eyes, which seemed to be a bit of a warning.

"It turns out that I'm the one who knows how to love my sister, okay! I just said this to you. If there is anything good or bad about Miss Lin in the future, we don't need you to take the initiative to speak up. We will help you out." Zhao Hui heard Lin Yu's words Then, I suddenly had a feeling of finding someone in the same way... In fact, it was the feeling of being a sister-con.

Everyone chatted happily for a long time, and before they knew it, it was nightfall. Zhao Hui decided to order a few dishes, and the few people had to feast on their mouths. Then Cheng Huai'an suggested: "Since a It would be a pity not to go to the streets to see the Lantern Festival once a year, and besides, some girls might also want a beautiful lantern or two."

Zhao Hui and the others nodded in agreement, so they called Zhao Hua and the others in the suite, and told them to put on their veiled hats. Five big men protected the three little women, surrounded by a circle of women and servants. He went to the street in a mighty way.

What is the most popular program at the Lantern Festival?Needless to say, it is of course guessing lantern riddles, and guessing lantern riddles in ancient times is also a kind of knowledge. If you haven’t read the book to that level, you may not be able to figure out the answer even if you think hard, so Zhao Hui took advantage of the crowd’s rush to guess lantern riddles. At that time, Lin Yu's knowledge was tested indirectly, and of course the result was satisfactory to him, but what he was most satisfied with was that Lin Yu's manners and manners were good, and he didn't have the aura of nouveau riche that he might have imagined. Sometimes it seems that there will be a strange feeling in a trance...

Lin Yu didn't know that he had become a "prospective sister-in-law" in the eyes of others. He only knew that there were two strange girls around him, and he always felt uncomfortable, and one of them would look at him from time to time, which made him feel uncomfortable. Along the way, I kept thinking hard, did I offend anyone? !Could it be that one of them had been dressed as a man and played in the street before, and he had met him?

Lin Yu doesn't remember Shi Xiangyun who had the experience of disguised as a man in the original novel, he only remembers that the heroine disguised as a man to enter the world is indispensable in all time-traveling novels...

After the group circled the Lantern Festival, they bid farewell to each other directly on the street, and each went back to their homes. Before leaving, Zhao Hui asked Jiang Ke if he would like to live in his mansion for a few days, but Jiang Ke seemed to be grateful. She politely declined, and Lin Daiyu found out later that it was said that a certain cousin of Zhao Hui's wife accidentally bumped into Jiang Ke when he first went to Zhen Guogong's mansion, and then she fell in love with him wholeheartedly. Not yet married, she begged her cousin several times, hoping that her cousin's husband would be a matchmaker for them. Zhao Hui already knew that Jiang Ke had a marriage contract, so it was impossible for her to agree. The cousin was sent back to her mother's house after a few days of quarreling. After all, there is no natal family who lives in the cousin-in-law's house for a long time, right?Moreover, I heard that the cousin's family made an engagement for her not long after, and it was thousands of miles away from the capital, probably because they didn't want to offend Zhao Hui or Prince Zhongsu's residence.

Although it was only unfortunate that he encountered such an accident, Jiang Ke can't guarantee that the next time, the other party will be as easy to deal with as that woman, especially in Zhao Hui's house, there will always be some royal relatives and relatives, so he seldom Then go to the town government. ?
