[Red Chamber] Daiyu's Rebirth Without Regrets

Chapter 9

In other words, Gao Qi didn't know where he went, and even Lin Ruhai didn't know, he was only worried about what to do if something happened to him.They couldn't send people out to investigate, so Gao Qi only waited for a few days before returning to Lin's residence.

Lin Ruhai saw that he was dusty and disheveled, and asked, "I don't know where Mr. Gao has gone. It makes me very worried."

Gao Qi drank the tea on Lin Ruhai's table in one gulp and said, "Don't ask more questions if you shouldn't ask. If I hadn't been injured this time, I wouldn't have been bothering Lin Ruhai for many days."

Lin Ruhai knew that this person was a confidant of Shengshan, so he must have told him some private matters, so he didn't ask any more questions immediately, but said: "I have sorted out some of the things I have investigated in the past few years. When you return to Beijing Please bring it to the emperor."

Takasaki looked at the pile of things coldly, and was quite displeased with Lin Ruhai's way of handling things.According to Takasaki's temperament, he directly accused those people and seized the opportunity to ransack the house. By then, all the evidence would be available, so why bother to spend so much time.It's just that Takasaki thought about it in his heart, and he would never say it out loud, after all, Lin Ruhai's behavior was also the emperor's intention.

Although the emperor has been in power for more than ten years now, the Supreme Emperor still has some prestige, not to mention other things, but most of the military power is still in the hands of the Supreme Emperor.

What's more, even though the deposed prince died, the Supreme Emperor didn't know what to do, so he just made the deposed prince's son a county king.It's all right to be an idle clan, but the king of Fan Jun is ambitious, secretly wins over the old department of the abolished prince, and on the face of it, flatters the Supreme Emperor three times a day, coaxing the Supreme Emperor to only listen to him.

Anyone who has a plan knows a thing or two about these things, so the officials in the capital are divided into three factions, the Taishanghuang faction and the emperor's faction, naturally there are still many neutral and wait-and-see.

This Gao Qi said a few words to Lin Ruhai about the affairs of the capital, Lin Ruhai didn't have much to say after hearing this, and just sighed: "It's not easy for the emperor."

Looking at Lin Ruhai, Gao Qi felt that although this person was born in a noble family, he did not have the exaggeration of a son of a noble family, but was full of literati style.Before coming here, although I heard that Lin Ruhai was the son-in-law of Rongguo Mansion, I was still a little worried, but now it seems that Lin Ruhai's behavior has nothing to do with Rongguo Mansion and others.

Gao Qi asked intentionally: "Master Lin, I want to ask you something, but I'm afraid of being abrupt again."

Lin Ruhai looked at Gao Qi, and said that Gao Qi was really not used to his style of acting like Hai Ruhai, he really didn't look like a man in the family, but he was sent by the emperor, so he had to pretend to be false.Hearing his question like this, I just thought it was something important, so I said: "But it's okay to say."

Gao Qi smiled and sat on Lin Ru's seaside, and asked: "I heard that Mr. Lin is the son-in-law of Mrs. Shi of the Rongguo Mansion."

Lin Ruhai frowned, nodded, and said, "Exactly."

"I see Mr. Lin is quite a literati, and his style of doing things is as careful as a hair. He is really not like the people in Jia's mansion."

"Joke, my surname is Lin, so I'm naturally different from the Jia family." Lin Ruhai was a little annoyed when he heard these words, which were really abrupt.

Gao Qi snickered and said: "Master Lin has been in Yangzhou for a long time, and there are some things that I don't know much about. Now this Rongguo Mansion has long since lost its name."

Lin Ruhai and Jia Min's marriage was considered a match made in heaven at the beginning. I don't know how many people in the capital envied it. Although Rongguo Mansion has been in decline since Jia Daishan left, it is not like this.Lin Ruhai deliberately defended with a few words: "Although my two brothers-in-law have not made much progress in their official careers, they must still be able to maintain the dignity of the Rongguo Mansion."

Gao Qi laughed out loud when he heard this, pointed to Lin Ruhai and said: "I didn't want to say more, I think others will not talk to you about Jia's affairs because of your relationship with Jia's. Today I Just be a good person once, and tell you well." Gao Qi poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and said: "The Ningrong Second Mansion is originally a family, and the Ningguo Mansion is on the East Street, and the Rongguo Mansion is on the West Street. Together, it is quite spectacular. It looks like a big scene, but there is no one who is planning a strategy. Those men spend all day fighting birds and dogs, wandering in Huajie and Liuxiang, content to enjoy themselves. What is even more ridiculous is the Ningguo Mansion That Jia Jing didn't know how to teach his children and grandchildren, but blindly pursued cultivation and self-cultivation. He handed over Nuo Da's family fortune to his ineffective son Jia Zhen. That Jia Zhen is the most famous one in the capital. Besides, Rongguo Mansion Jia pardoned Jia Zheng The two brothers, Jia Amnesty is useless. He was held hostage by Mrs. Shi, and he would fool around with girls every day or bully the common people. Jia Zheng gave birth to a son. But when the child was seven or eight years old, he said: "Daughters are made of water, and men are made of mud. When I see a daughter, I feel refreshed. When I see a man, I feel stinky." It's compelling.'" Gao Qi said here, peeking at Lin Ruhai, he saw that his face was red at first, and he seemed to be unable to vent his anger.

Gao Qi knew that what he said just now must have made Lin Ruhai angry, so he persuaded him: "Master Lin, don't worry, even though you are the son-in-law of her Mrs. Shi, you have been in Yangzhou for these years. Nothing to do with you."

Lin Ruhai was afraid that Jia's mansion would ruin her reputation, but she just thought of sending Daiyu to Jia's mansion before.Fortunately, Daiyu insisted, so she didn't send Daiyu, or she would send her precious daughter to the fire pit.

After these words, Gao Qi knew that Lin Ruhai would never send Lin Daiyu to Jia's mansion again.

In addition, although Daiyu went to the courtyard several times without seeing Gao Qi, she still went there once a day.It so happened that on this day, I saw Takasaki practicing sword in the courtyard in neat clothes, and Daiyu didn't want to disturb him when she saw that he was dancing vigorously, so she just watched and didn't speak.

That Gaoqi had seen Daiyu coming, danced a sword flower and put away the sword.He turned to Daiyu and said, "I helped you, how can you thank me?"

When Daiyu heard this, she hurriedly asked, "What did you help me, don't lie to me."

Gao Qi said: "Don't you just want to stay by your father's side and fulfill your filial piety. Don't worry, your father will never let you go to Jia's house again."

When Daiyu heard this, she hurriedly asked, "What did you do?"

Gao Qi said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's nothing to do with you. I just gave a general introduction to the situation in Najia Mansion."

"Then thank you." Daiyu thought for a while, as long as she could not go to Jia's mansion and serve her father with peace of mind, how does Jia's mansion have anything to do with her.

Gao Qi saw that Daiyu was not very happy when he heard the news, but rather lost interest.Thinking that this girl lived in Jia's house in her previous life, she still has some feelings for Jia's house anyway, so she said: "Don't worry, I'll just talk about it roughly."

After hearing this, Daiyu pouted at Gaoqi and said, "It's so shameless, it's still a good thing to say bad things about him."

Seeing her joking, Gao Qi also said with a smile: "When you go to the capital in the future, ask two people, and you will know that what I said is considered light."

Daiyu knew that there were still many unspeakable things about Jia's mansion, and I am afraid that outsiders may not be as clear as she is.It's just that she didn't want to tell others about it, she only thought it was a dream.

Now wake up from the dream and go with her.

Daiyu said: "I've come to tell you something these few days. The girl who just came in my yard is probably a spy sent in by someone."

Gao Qi looked at Dai Yu with a smile and said, "Come and ask me about this, just send it."

Daiyu glared at Gao Qi and said, "I thought, if these two people are used well, wouldn't they be of great use."

Gao Qi didn't expect Daiyu to have such an idea, so he looked at her and said, "You have a good idea, but we don't know who sent them here, and we don't know who their upline is."

Daiyu whispered: "I know who their upline is, it's Widow Zhao who manages the green house in my mansion."

Looking at Daiyu, Gao Qi really admired him, and asked, "Why didn't you tell your father about this directly?"

Daiyu looked at Gao Qi and said with a smile: "You don't know, my father loves me very much, not to mention food and clothing, and even hired a gentleman to teach me to read and write every day. In my father's eyes, I should be a lady who doesn't care about worldly affairs. But he doesn't know, her daughter is still a bit more worldly after all." Daiyu's eyes were red when she said this.

Gao Qi heard this, shook his head and smiled and said, "I'm telling the truth, don't be annoyed."

Daiyu said, "Please tell me."

Gao Qi looked at Daiyu and said: "Your Lin family is a lord's family, and it is also a scholarly family. Lin Ruhai is also highly regarded by the emperor. Your father Lin Ruhai also cares for you very much, and I am afraid that you will be hurt a little, but your father Lin Ruhai has nothing to do with you. You are an only daughter and have no heirs. When your father is gone, you will still have his protection. To put it bluntly, once your father leaves, you may not even be able to keep your family property. "

As soon as Gao Qi said this, Daiyu sneered and said, "You are right. I really can't keep the family property." Daiyu didn't expect Gao Qi to look a little informal, but his words hit the nail on the head. The matter was told.

Now that she has said this, Daiyu simply said everything, when she heard Daiyu say that she died in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion of Jia's Mansion.Gao Qi couldn't help but feel sorry for Daiyu, sighed and said: "The Jia family is really hateful. On the surface, they say they like their granddaughter, but everything is bullying you when you are young and ignorant, and they are greedy for your family property. What's more, they let the government do what is even worse. The girl and mother-in-law look down on you.

Seeing that Gao Qi was defending herself against injustice, Daiyu persuaded him, "I'm not angry myself, so why bother."

Seeing that Daiyu was really not angry, Gao Qi thought that she was different from him, after all, she still had a father and relatives.Thinking of this, Takasaki sighed and said: "Since we lived aggrieved in the previous life, we must live happily in this life."

Daiyu looked at him as a child and asked, "How is it now?"

Gao Qi was stunned for a moment, thinking that he is now listening to the emperor's orders every day, and he is really not happy, so he sighed and said: "People can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes!"

Daiyu said with a smile: "I think you are asking for it yourself. If you don't see your future. With your ability, as long as you have enough food and clothing, you can't go anywhere."

Listening to these remarks, Takasaki said with a smile: "When I was just reborn, I also thought about it, but later I discovered that people have faith in life, and it is not so easy to abandon the family and the country."

Seeing that Gao Qi suddenly became serious, Daiyu wondered if she had mentioned his pain.Just as he was about to divert the conversation, Gao Qi suddenly took out a dagger from his boot and handed it to Daiyu.

Daiyu reached out to take it, and it turned out to be a sterling silver dagger with repeated patterns on it, and a piece of beeswax inlaid on the handle.Takasaki said: "I got this yesterday. It just looks good. Giving it to you can be regarded as our acquaintance."

Hearing what he said, she was afraid that she was going to leave, so Daiyu hurriedly thanked her, and then said: "Then what about the Widow Zhao I just mentioned?"

Gao Qi jumped onto the eaves, it was the first time for Daiyu to see such kung fu, Dang even was very surprised, and said: "There is such a skill in the world."

Gao Qi smiled and said: "My ability is only average. I will tell your father that I found out about Widow Zhao."

What Gao Qi said was right, as expected within two days, Lin Ruhai found an opportunity to deal with Widow Zhao, and even dealt with several servants who had been friends with Widow Zhao in the past.
