The Red Chamber: The Rise of the Shuzi

Chapter 123 The Trail of Remnants

Chapter 123 The Trail of Remnants
Honor Hall.

Ever since Jia Amnesty slapped the table angrily, and was interrupted by Jia Jing in a bland manner, they sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and everyone fell silent for a while.

There was silence in the main hall.

Outside, Hu Po came in and said, "Master Hou, the servants at home came to look for you, and said that there is a Jin Yiwei looking for you, and they are sitting in the living room!"

Hearing the words Jin Yiwei, Jia Amnesty couldn't help but froze, looking quite uncomfortable.

Jia Jing was not surprised that Jin Yiwei was coming, and said with a smile: "You tell him to go back first, just say that I will be there later!"

After finishing speaking, Jia Jing turned around and said goodbye to Jia Mu and others on the side.

……

Jia Jing returned to the Hou Mansion.

In the living room, Fang Zheng, the commander of Jin Yiwei, was sitting there.

When Jia Jing saw it, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Master Fang came here in person, it really is so radiant!"

The so-called flower sedan chair people lift people.

Hearing Jia Jing's polite words, coupled with the fact that he had provided himself with a lot of information about the remnants of the abolition of the prince, Fang Zheng's face became more sincere and bright with a smile.

"Master Hou is the pillar of our Great Zhou, so to say that is a disgrace!"

Fangzheng hurriedly stepped forward to meet him and said, "This time, the officials came here, one is to tell Lord Hou that Sun Shaozu died not long ago, but he was murdered by the remnants of the deposed prince!"

"It's a pity!" Jia Jing said quietly.

"The second thing is to inform Lord Hou that Jin Yiwei has already locked down the approximate area where the remaining gangsters are hiding. Presumably Houye will be free from harassment by those gangsters in the near future!"

Hearing this, Jia Jing couldn't help but look serious, and cupped his hands to Fangzheng, saying: "As for the remnants of the abolished princes, the family has been in trouble recently, Mr. Fang's words are really great news, then I will be quiet." Waiting for the good news from Mr. Fang!"

Then, he seemed to remember something.

Jia Jing said to Fang Zheng again: "If you encounter a confrontation that Jin Yiwei is not very good at, Mr. Fang might as well come to Ben Hou and tell him that the soldiers under Ben Hou's hands are all good fighters!"

What Jia Jing said was equivalent to saying to Fang Zheng that if you need reinforcements who are good at fighting against the enemy, you can come to borrow someone from yourself!

After all, Jia Jing still coveted the soul points of those people!

In addition, it is also equivalent to a nomination certificate that completely puts himself on the opposite side of the remnants of the abolished prince. After all, Fangzheng has given himself such a big deal, so Jia Jing naturally wants to reciprocate.

Faced with Jia Jing's kindness, Fang Zheng naturally thanked him again and again.

Immediately afterwards, Fangzheng asked softly: "The lower official heard that Master Hou is collecting some rare and exotic objects, I wonder if there is such a thing?"

Jia Jing couldn't help raising her eyebrows, "Master Fang is really sharp!"

"Xiaguan, there is an object handed down from our ancestors, which is a fragment of a meteorite from the sky."

After a pause, seeing that Jia Jing really showed an expression of interest, Fang Zheng hurriedly continued: "It's useless for me to keep this iron bump that can't be burned, smashed or chopped down every day. These things are interesting, so I brought them here, and I hope that Lord Hou will not dislike them!"

Can it be burnt, smashed, or chopped?

After hearing Fang Zheng's words, Jia Jing couldn't help but become more interested in these two so-called "iron lumps".

"It's just that the Marquis wants to thank Mr. Fang, so there's no way there will be talk of dislike!"

……

After a while, Jia Jing saw two Jinyi guards enter with some difficulty carrying a strong net bag.

"Boom!"

With a dull landing sound, the net bag was placed heavily on the ground.

The two Jin Yiwei felt relieved in an instant, as if they had been relieved of a heavy burden.

Fangzheng went over and opened the net bag woven with thick hemp rope. Inside was an irregular black metal ball with a diameter of about one foot.

Jia Jing came over curiously.

"Please look, Lord Hou, this is an object handed down from the family of the lower officials. Although it is so small, it weighs three and a half stones."

Three and a half stone?
Isn't that more than 350 catties?Looking at the size of the metal ball in front of him, such a big iron ball is only about two hundred catties, but it is so much heavier than iron...

"Master Fang, can I try it?"

"This object itself was taken and given to Lord Hou. Now it is already Lord Hou's property. Lord Hou can dispose of it by himself. Why do you need to ask the lower officials?!"

Hearing this, Jia Jing was also blunt, stretched out her hand and pressed it.

Feeling the information transmitted from the system, it really looks like this kind of extraterrestrial meteorite, which is also a special material.

It's just that this kind of metal material can only be used as a magic weapon for armor and weapons, so it can only be temporarily thrown there to eat ashes.

But even so, it is something that can be encountered but not sought after!

Jia Jing reached out and turned it over again, looked at it for a while, and said: "It is indeed a rare and rare object! Thank you, Mr. Fang!"

Then, after another round of courtesies between the two, Jia Jing sent Fang Zheng and his party out.

………………

Two days passed by in a hurry.

On the third day of August, Jiamu's birthday.

On this day, the entire Ningrong street was cleaned up in advance, and festive lanterns were hung all over the street.

On the three mansions, there are even more colorful decorations, red and green makeup, and everyone is beaming.

Entering the mansion, there is even the sound of the shengxiao, the drum and the zither, which is melodious and melodious, leading to the alleys.

Early in the morning, Lin Daiyu urged Jia Jing to get up and change clothes, and then asked Xue Yan to wait for her to put on her imperial makeup.

Today is Jia Mu's birthday. Among the people who came to congratulate her, there are many princes, nobles, princesses, princesses and concubines.As the only imperial wife of the Jia family, Lin Daiyu naturally wanted to accompany Jia's mother to welcome the imperial wives in Rongguo Mansion.

Naturally, Lin Daiyu was extremely concerned about this gathering of the top imperial wives in Shenjing.

……

As the sun rose, many guests arrived one after another.

Among the officials and guests entertained in the Ning Mansion and Hou Mansion, those who need to be entertained by Jia Jing in person are the King of Beijing, the King of Nan'an, the Prince of Yongchang, the Marquis of Baoling and other counties, and the rest are pardoned by Jia. It is enough for Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen and Jia Lian to greet them.

After drinking for three rounds, Jia Jing prepared to withdraw first under the guise of being too drunk.

They are all princes of aristocratic families who are on good terms with the Jia family, and there is a case of the eldest son Jia Jing beating Sun Shaozu while drunk. Naturally, everyone will not care about Jia Jing's slight faux pas, so they just joked twice and let Jia Jing go first with a smile I left the table.

After getting out of the gate of Ningguo Mansion, Jia Jing turned and turned into the gate of Rongguo Mansion.

……

In Rongguo Mansion, it is different from the interlacing of wine and wine in Ningguo Mansion and Wuhou Mansion.

Everyone had already finished their banquet, and at this time they ordered a few auspicious operas, chatted and waited for the actors on the stage to start singing.

Jia Jing went straight to the Rongqing Hall, and then amidst the bowing of all the maids, the mandarin ducks gently raised the bamboo curtain, and Jia Jing entered the main hall.

Looking up, Jia Jing saw that the two upper seats in the hall were the Princess Nan'an and the Princess Beijing, and the wives of the princely and noble families were sitting below in order.

The seat on the left is accompanied by Hou Gaoming of Baoling and Gaoming of Jinxiang; the seat on the right is the position of Jia Mu and Lin Daiyu.

As for Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang, they led the daughters-in-law of Youshi, Sister Feng, and Qin Keqing, and they stood behind Jiamu like wild goose wings.

Further outside, there are Lin Zhixiao's family, Lai Da's family and Zhou Rui's family, leading all the maids and daughters-in-law, all waiting carefully outside the bamboo curtain.

 The third update, it's a bit late, I'm really sorry!
