The Red Chamber: The Rise of the Shuzi

Chapter 122
But it is said that the third day of August this year is Jia Mu's [-]th birthday.

Therefore, all relatives and friends of Jia's family came to the mansion to celebrate Jia's mother's birthday. Although the birthday banquet was held on the third day of junior high school, from the end of July, there was an endless stream of birthday presents.

When Jia Jing came back, he saw that Ningrong Street was crowded with people who came to give gifts.

After returning to the Hou's mansion, and being served by Amber, Jia Jing went directly to the Rongqing Hall of Jia Mu after changing into the regular clothes.

When Jia Jing arrived in Rongqing hall, he saw that everyone had already arrived.

At the top of the room, Mother Jia was holding an agarwood crutch, rubbing it back and forth and looking at it.

On the table next to it, there are two large red lacquered wooden trays cushioned with satin.

On one of the trays, there was a luxurious and exquisite gold and jade ruyi; on the other red lacquered wooden tray, there was a golden birthday star, a string of Ganan beads, and a box of incense.

After showing the ceremony to everyone, Jia Jing sat down next to Lin Daiyu, pointed her chin towards the two lacquered wooden trays, and asked in a low voice, "What's the situation with that?"

Seeing this, Lin Daiyu also replied in a low voice: "The gold and jade Ruyi on the tray on the left was specially rewarded by His Majesty from the palace when he learned of the old lady's birthday; the objects on the tray on the right were sent by the empress Xianfei from the palace. Congratulations to the old lady."

Jia Jing nodded, expressing understanding.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Jia's mother was thinking that Jia Jing had just returned from the palace and had not yet had food or water, so she asked Yuanyang to arrange for the maids to prepare and serve the food first.

After they were full with wine and food, the maids took away the dishes and chopsticks, and made hot tea for everyone.

Jia Jing stopped a maid who was about to bring hot tea to Lin Daiyu, and ordered: "Madam has a weak stomach and can't drink tea after meals, so go and make a cup of hawthorn honey water!"

Hearing Jia Jing's words, Jia's mother couldn't help laughing: "If you want to say that you love your wife, brother Jing in our family is the first!"

Pulling Jia Jing's sleeves, Lin Daiyu was quite embarrassed, "My body has almost recovered a long time ago, and it's okay to drink a cup of tea after dinner once in a while!"

"Always pay attention!"

As he said that, Jia Jing also smiled and said: "Besides, the old lady's place is the same as our own home, it's a little trivial, so don't be polite to the old lady here!"

Seeing that Jia Jing is willing to get close to her, Jia's mother is also very happy.

Afterwards, everyone gathered together to discuss matters such as the arrangement of the banquet and the order of the guest list.

After some calculations, because there are too many guests to come, it is impossible to organize a banquet just in Rongguo Mansion.Therefore, everyone decided to have a banquet in the three houses.

Among them, Rongguo Mansion hosted banquets for guests alone, while Ningguo Mansion and Wuhou Mansion hosted official guests.

After discussing the matters concerning Jia Mu's birthday, everyone sat there and chatted.

During the period, it was inevitable that the marriage of Yingchun was mentioned.

Jia Zheng suddenly asked, "Brother Jing, at the court meeting, the censor said that you beat the court official for no reason. Was it Sun Shaozu?"

Jia Jing nodded and said: "There is such a thing, there was a celebration banquet in the palace yesterday, and I was greedy for a while and drank too much, and then I became drunk. I think I played while drinking, but I don't remember the details. Already!"

When Jia Amnesty over there heard Jia Jing's words, his complexion changed slightly.

Regarding Jia Jing's behavior, Jia Zheng said with a smile: "Brother Jing's actions are very suitable for me, and I don't like their Sun family, and I don't like that grandson Shaozu.

Although our two families are family friends, they are only from his grandfather's generation, admiring the grandeur of our family as a family of two countries, and there are unresolved matters in our family, so we bowed our heads to worship under our family.

Such an act of following others is beyond the capabilities of a gentleman of integrity!

So what if their family is rich?People who don't understand poetry and etiquette will never be able to enter the elegant hall! "

Jia Amnesty was beside him, his expression was already extremely ugly.

Hearing Jia Zheng's words, Jia Jing looked at him in surprise. Although he was pedantic, timid, face-saving, and an official fan, but he had to say something, what Jia Zheng said today was indeed very good. it is good.

Therefore, Jia Jing nodded in agreement and said: "What the second master said is very true. According to the rumors in the market, Sun Shaozu is not a loyal and benevolent generation. Letting my sister marry him will not push her into the fire pit?!"

Hearing this, Jia Amnesty finally couldn't bear it anymore, and reached out to pat the table, "Yingchun's marriage has been decided, you don't need to say anything more!"

Jia Jing glanced at Jia She, without arguing, just picked up the teacup on one side, and said lightly:

"Whether this matter will be accomplished or not, everyone will just watch!"

…………

An hour ago, in the Sun family, an uninvited guest was standing in front of Sun Shaozu's hospital bed.

"So, our plan to get Jia Jing on board through Jia Yingchun failed?"

Sun Shaozu nodded with difficulty, and said: "That's true, this person is determined, but he can't win him over!"

The man pondered for a while.

"Since you can't marry Jia Yingchun, and now you have become a half-useless person, why don't you do one last thing for your master!"

"Being loyal to the master is..." Sun Shaozu was halfway through his words, and then he realized what the other party said, and Dang even hurriedly shouted: "My lord, listen to me, I..."

Before he finished speaking, a fist hit Sun Shaozu's chest heavily through the thick quilt.

Sun Shaozu was thrown on the door wall by Jia Jing yesterday, his chest ribs were broken into several pieces, and he was finally picked up by the imperial doctor in the palace. At this moment, he received a heavy blow , how can I stand it?

The broken bone that was temporarily straightened was dislocated in an instant, and under the tremendous force that came down through the quilt, it was inserted into Sun Shaozu's heart and lungs in an instant...

"Then use your life to do one last thing for Master!"

The man said softly: "Since you can't win over, let's destroy him! Beating the court official to death is enough for him to drink a pot temporarily! Let's wait and see..."

"Ho...ho..."

Lying on the bed, Sun Shaozu stared at his upline. In his eyes, apart from burning hatred, there was also deep regret.

Scarlet blood with foam kept pouring out of his mouth. This tall and burly man was completely speechless at this moment...

……

"Oh!"

The door of the room was suddenly kicked open, and Fang Zheng rushed in with several Jin Yiwei.

"Find the remnants of the former prince, arrest him!"

Several Jin Yiwei brandished the sheathed long knives in their hands, and rushed forward in an instant.

"Damn it, it's hit!"

As soon as the man's face changed, he wanted to escape outside, but it was all futile in front of a group of Jinyi guards.

After only three or five rounds, the man was firmly pressed to the ground by the two Jin Yiwei.

After checking that there was no poison sac in his mouth, the Jinyi guards randomly found a piece of cloth, rolled it up vigorously, and stuffed it into the man's mouth.

From Jin Yiwei's rushing into the Sun's mansion, to arresting people and leaving now, the whole process was only a short effort of dozens of breaths.

Seeing Fangzheng and others coming in, Sun Shaozu couldn't help showing a bit of desire for life, exhausted all his strength, and uttered a few vague words,

"Save... save... life..."

But after arresting the person, Fangzheng turned around and took the person away, as if he didn't see Sun Shaozu on the hospital bed at all.

Just as he was about to leave the room, Fangzheng couldn't help but pause.

Afterwards, with the look of hope on Sun Shaozu's face, he ordered Jin Yiwei next to him: "Go to Zhaowuhou's mansion and inform him, and tell him that the remnants of the former prince have been arrested, and Sun Shaozu was injured by the remnants and died!"

Jin Yiwei bowed to accept the order, "Yes!"

"By the way, give him a good time, it's too worrying to watch!"

After all, Fangzheng took people away in a hurry...

Behind him, there was another muffled sound...
