Red House Shoufu

Chapter 133 Water Soluble
Among the founding nobles, the 24 martial arts families of the four kings, eight lords and twelve princes have been in close contact for nearly a hundred years.

As time goes by, although they each have their own small groups, they still interact with each other as family friends on the surface.

Because the former king of Beijing County made a big mistake during the war, the military power of the palace was confiscated by the Supreme Emperor. Compared with the other three kings, the power of the Shui family fell sharply.

After Shui Rong took over the title, he intensified his efforts to win over the founding warriors, trying to restore the former glory of the Beijing Palace.Xiang Ningrong and Rongfu are gradually falling behind, but still have a huge influence in the army. Wu Xun is his best target.

Jia Lian also understood that since his grandfather Jia Daishan passed away, the Ningrong and Rongfu were like a piece of delicious fat, and everyone wanted to take a bite.If he hadn't voted for the emperor early, I'm afraid the Jia family would have been divided up.

Hearing Lin Shu's reminder, Jia Lian nodded and said, "Before I became an official, I had been with this 'virtuous king' several times. At that time, I felt that this person was a hypocrite with a smiley face, and I always reminded myself not to fall for others. Gradually, he may feel that I am not easy to be controlled, so he turned his attention to Big Brother Zhen and Baoyu."

Jia Zhen and Shui Rong have frequent contacts, and they are stupid, so it is not surprising that they were calculated.Now being confined at home by Jia Jing, it would not be a big problem to come to Ningguo Mansion.

Jia Baoyu, on the other hand, was easily tricked by water.When he was in the Lin Mansion last time, Lin Shu discovered that the relationship between Jia Baoyu and Shui Rong was unusual, and even exceeded the level of ordinary friendship.

"The old lady also invited Qingyao county head of the Prince's Mansion of Beijing County this time. In order to appease the old lady, I have sent someone to send the post. Just taking advantage of this opportunity, let's also explore the bottom of the Prince's Mansion of Beijing County. But your sister-in-law is not very convenient, I still want to ask my cousin about this..."

Jia Lian turned his attention to Daiyu. Wang Xifeng was pregnant with Liujia, and many things were not very convenient.Although Yingchun has grown up now, she is still too immature compared to Daiyu.

On the other hand, Daiyu's growth over the past few years surprised him.Sure enough, the teachings of the two palace nuns, Zhang and Lu, were really extraordinary.

"County Master Qingyao is about the same age as her cousin. It is rumored that Shui Rong dotes on this younger sister very much. Even if she doesn't know the specific situation of the Prince's Mansion in Beijing County, she can always find out some details."

Daiyu was very interested in this kind of "difficult task" like a secret agent. She asked, "Then what should I inquire about? What if the Lord Qingyao finds out?"

"Shui Rong is extremely meticulous in his work, and has been wandering between Prince Yizhong's residence and Prince Zhongxin's residence. I don't think Qingyao county master is very clear about other things. My cousin just needs to inquire about the residence of Prince Yizhong in Beijing County and Prince Yizhong's residence. The degree of communication with Prince Zhongxin's Palace is fine."

Jia Lian told Daiyu about the general situation of the Prince's Mansion in Beijing County, and asked Daiyu to inquire about the extent of the three families' contacts, perhaps hoping to find out which side Shui Rong was on.

Seeing Daiyu's eager expression, Lin Shu didn't stop the matter.

"Cousin Lian wants to find out who Shui Rong is supporting? I'm afraid you won't be able to find out from the usual courtesies alone. It's better to let the Xiuyiwei directly send spies in."

Jia Lian shook his head and said, "Your Majesty sent people in eight years ago. You can't even imagine how meticulous the water solution, which was only 12 years old at that time, has become. Several spies have been changed in eight years, but nothing has been found. "

Jia Lian's words made Lin Shu really want to say that this son is so terrifying.Having said that, Lin Shu has a slight interest in water melting.There must be some ulterior secrets behind a seemingly gentle and gentle 'virtuous king' who can do this.

……

After sending Jia Lian out, Lin Shu said to Daiyu, "You don't need to participate in this matter."

Daiyu replied with a stubborn face: "I don't want to be that vase on the shelf. Before that, Shui Rong and Wang Ziteng came together to put pressure on my brother, wanting my brother to agree to Wang Ziteng's marriage proposal... He can plot against us home, then I can plan to go back."

It turned out that this girl still remembered the last time Wang Ziteng brought a group of people to propose marriage, and she was quite vengeful.

"Besides, I heard from my elder brother that the Shui family has close contacts with the Zhongxin Palace and the Zhen family, and these two families are inseparable from the father's poisoning. I can't help my elder brother in major matters, but I can always do what I can."

Daiyu's expression dimmed, and she finally said firmly: "I am no longer a child, I can't always hide behind my brother's back and let him protect me from the wind and rain..."

Seeing Daiyu with a firm face, Lin Shu reached out and rubbed her head: "Since you have already made up your mind, go ahead and do it boldly. The young eagle will eventually spread its wings, and my brother will always be your backing !"

……

Daiyu and Gao Yunwan met at Rongguo Mansion before the poetry meeting and flower viewing feast at Prince Zhongshun's Mansion.

The relationship between Jia Amnesty and Zhongshun Wang Gao Yonghuan is very good, when people in the capital mention one of the two dudes, they will definitely mention the other's name.

This day Rongguo Mansion was full of guests and friends, and Gao Yongheng brought his two sons and daughters to celebrate Jia She and Feng Bo's great joy.

The male guests in the front yard are still drinking and drinking, while in the back house Daiyu is playing with Wang Yuan, Gao Yunwan and other sisters.

Wang Xifeng's stomach is already very big, and many things can only be entrusted to Yingchun, the eldest daughter of the house.

She sat in the room and rested for a while.Listening to the noisy sound outside, there was a trace of pride on the corner of his mouth.

Rongguo Mansion was able to regain its glory, thanks to her husband Jia Lian.According to the emperor's emphasis on Jia Lian, when Jia Lian inherits the title, it is very likely that he will not be downgraded to the title.Then she will be a super uncle in the future, on the same level as her own second aunt, the wife of the head of the Wang family.

"Grandma, the second girl asked Siqi to come just now, saying that Mrs. Xue's family has arrived, and she will be in Rongxi Hall."

Ping'er lifted the curtain and asked Wang Xifeng if she wanted to go there.Wang Xifeng struggled to get up from the couch: "Let's go, I don't know if my aunt is here or not..."

Just as he was talking, Mrs. Xue Wang had already walked in with Xue Baochai.Seeing that Wang Xifeng was going to meet her with a big belly, she hurried over to help her sit down.

"They're all from my own family, why are you so heretic. I felt uncomfortable staying there with the old lady, so I came out on the pretext of coming to see you."

Although the Xue family is one of the four major families, they are only merchants after all.Sitting among a group of noble ladies, Xue Wang felt uncomfortable all over. It happened that Wang Xifeng came back early to rest because of her pregnancy.She took her daughter out of Rongxi Hall.

Wang Xifeng held Xue Wangshi's hand: "It's my aunt who loves me so much. I went to greet these ladies today, and my legs are weak after tossing about. The house is full of noise, but my side is quieter, and I just happen to Use the excuse of entertaining my aunt to have a lot of leisure."

Ping'er brought tea to the three of them, and went to guard the door.Wang Xifeng pulled Xue Baochai to sit down, and saw that although she had a smile on her face, she could still feel the worry on her brow.

"What's wrong with Sister Bao? Why are you frowning? But what's the problem? If there's anything I can help, just say it."

Xue Baochai glanced at her mother and shook her head.But Wang Xue seemed to be meeting a happy event, holding Wang Xifeng's hand and said happily: "What's the problem? Our family has a happy event. His Royal Highness Wang Zhongxin entrusted your uncle to be a matchmaker, and wanted to accept Bao girl Be a side concubine!"
