Red Chamber: Bring Xue Baochai home at the beginning

Chapter 172 Father and Son Confused Behavior Award
When others recommend someone in a letter, they all think about it.

A look of hesitation.

Because to a large extent, most recommenders and recommendees will be bound.

Since then, it has been regarded as a political alliance and forcibly classified as a party.

However, for Jia Zheng to recommend him, he only needs to meet two conditions.

First, read well and be knowledgeable.

The feeling of being underappreciated must be strong.

It's better to be squeezed out by others, and the kind of knowledge that has nowhere to play.

Of course, the threshold for being educated is not low.

At least a Jinshi.

Second, they are close and have relatives.

There are not many people who have relatives and knowledge with him.

But it's not easy to be quick without knowledge, but you can recognize relatives if you don't have relatives.

So this condition is more flexible.

The last person who agreed to the conditions was Jia Yucun.

Jia Yucun was born as a second-class Jinshi, and has a letter of recommendation from Lin Ruhai.

After joining the Jia family, he became his nephew.

Therefore, Jia Zheng spared no effort to recommend the book.

Now, with the Xue family's relationship, Mei Hanlin has also become his god-in-law.

As a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, Mei Hanlin was also born as a scholar.

His academic qualifications are even higher than those of Jia Yucun.

Both conditions are satisfied.

For the rest, Jia Zheng has only one word.

"Baobao" is over!

Last time, Jia Yucun, whom he recommended, has now become the Minister of the Ministry of War.

In the imperial court, he cooperated tacitly with Wang Ziteng who was in the border area.

It also helped a lot for the four big families.

In Jia Zheng's view, Jia Yucun is definitely a person who knows how to repay his kindness.

Before Jia Yucun returned to Beijing Hou Que, he would be invited to visit the mansion from time to time.

It was only later that the vacancy of the Minister of the Ministry of War was filled, and the busy work was less frequent.

But since the concubine was appointed in Yuanchun this year, Jia Yucun seems to be free again.

Moved a lot more than before.

Who doesn't recognize the uncle on Xinglong Street?
The Rong Mansion already regarded him as one of their own.

And until now, people often use Jia Yucun's affairs to flatter Jia Zheng.

It is said that he knows people with eyesight.

Slowly, Jia Zheng himself believed it.

In his eyes, Mei Hanlin now is the same as Jia Yucun back then.

I need my own pair of discerning eyes to give this Hanlin Academy scholar a helping hand in the snow.

If you say that Jia Zheng is really capable of dealing with him, he really doesn't say anything about it in memorials.

He also wrote a letter to Prince Teng who was far away in the north.

Of course, this is something for later, Wang Ziteng has not received it yet.

At this time, the palace and the cabinet are still waiting for the follow-up of the Four Kings, Eight Dukes and One Party.

But it was soon discovered that this was Jia Zheng's personal behavior.

Because after a few days, Jia Zheng was the only one who recommended it.

Obviously, it was not the ambition of Xungui's party.

Nor is it to win over the old party.

Purely an extremely rare personal behavior.

It was only then that Emperor Jingshun remembered that he beat Jia Zheng by himself the last time when Yuan Chun was named his concubine, but he didn't understand at all.

This is a good illustration of a problem.

That is, this person has no political awareness and follows his own feelings.

In other words, it is very likely that this matter is not what he thought.

So he called Prince Zhongshun for questioning.

"You mean, this Jia Zheng recognized the daughter of the Xue family's second wife as a goddaughter, so he became a relative of the Mei family, so he went to the bank as a guarantee?"

After hearing Prince Zhongshun's return, Emperor Jingshun had the expression of an old subway man looking at his mobile phone.

Prince Zhongshun is not in his usual unruly appearance at this time.

Instead, he smacked his lips, with an indescribable expression on his face, and said:
"That's right, the news our people have found is almost like this."

You know, Prince Zhongshun is in charge of the Dragon Scale Guard, few people can escape his eyes.

What kind of weirdness he has never seen before.

But obviously, with his knowledge, he didn't expect someone to be like this...

How to describe it?
He usually looks humble and kind, with a lot of legacy from his father and grandfather.

It is by no means a frivolous stream.

It's just that I don't have a brain when I do things.

To say that he is straightforward is to praise him.

Emperor Jingshun still couldn't believe it, and confirmed:

"In other words, this is indeed Jia Zheng's own behavior, and has nothing to do with Xungui's party?"

He used the word "sure enough", which means that he already believed it [-]% in his heart.

It's just a habit of confirming again.

"It seems so." Prince Zhongshun curled his lips.

Only then did Emperor Jingshun nodded, indicating that he already knew.

Then he shook his head and sighed: "Back then, in the East Palace, there were scruples about this Jia Cunzhou, but now it seems that it is unnecessary."

"Hehe! With his intelligence, it might be difficult for him to be a Jinshi."

Prince Zhongshun sneered and made a mocking statement.

Obviously know this too.

Then he showed disdain again, shook his head and denied himself, saying:
"No, it's a fluke for such a pedantic person."

Regarding what Jia Zheng did, Prince Zhongshun could only think of the word "pedantic" to describe it.

Because he has good intentions, not for profit.

But Emperor Jingshun obviously had a different opinion.

"Back then Rongguo Mansion declared that the second son of the second house was born with jade, and that person just made a little arrangement."

Thinking of Jia Zheng's performance, Emperor Jingshun underestimated Donggong who had attacked him.

Thinking of this, he shook his head and said:
"Now it seems that Jia Zheng is not pedantic, but stupid."

In the city of Emperor Jingshun, it is rare to make such an extreme evaluation of a person.

It can be seen how angry he is today.

"you do not say!"

Prince Zhongshun nodded in agreement, and seeing Emperor Jingshun's gloomy expression, he wanted to adjust the atmosphere and said:
"If the old man knew what he was like now, he would probably crawl out of the coffin in anger!"

The old Duke he mentioned naturally refers to the last generation of Duke Rong.

Mrs. Shi's husband, Jia Daishan.

When their brothers were teenagers, they all met the old Duke.

Unexpectedly, such an amazingly talented person would end up with no successors.

"Go and say hello to the cabinet."

Emperor Jingshun took a deep breath, ordered Xia Bingzhong beside him, and said:
"Just say this and let it go first, just ignore it."

"Yes!" Xia Bingzhong quickly led the order out.

When Xia Bingzhong left, Emperor Jingshun said to Prince Zhongshun:
"These nobles are really worrying, and you will pay more attention to them in the future."

Prince Zhongshun nodded upon hearing the words, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, Brother Huang, everything is under control!"

In a blink of an eye, it's August, and the third day of the junior high school is Mrs. Shi's birthday.

Because it is not a birthday, and the house is building a family-saving villa, Mrs. Shi will not let it happen.

The order is to close the door, and let the family have a drink.

Even so, everyone in the house knows that she always likes to be lively.

Wang Xifeng discussed with Mrs. Wang and others, and arranged for people a few days in advance to set up a stage in Mrs. Shi's courtyard.

In addition to performing in the theater troupe bought earlier, two new troupes have been ordered, both Kunyi and Kunyi.

After the stage was set up, and before it was the right day, Mrs. Shi couldn't wait, and invited the female family members of the mansion to come.

Wang Xifeng knew her preference early on, so she asked people to arrange a few family banquets in Mrs. Shi's upper room.

There were no foreigners present, only Xue Mu, Baochai, Baoqin, Daiyu and Miaoyu.

In addition, Xiangyun who knew the date and came early.

The rest are all from Jia's own family.

Mrs. Shi asked Xue's mother to play first.

This is the way of hospitality.

How could Xue's mother be willing, she refused again and again, and finally she couldn't let it go.

Just clicked "Journey to the West".

This is a lively drama that Mrs. Shi usually likes.

Next, Mrs. Shi asked Baochai to order.

Baochai asked Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing and other elders to order first.

After the elders finished ordering, Mrs. Shi asked Baochai to order plays again.

Just like her mother, Baochai clicked "Mountain Gate".

Baoyu thought that she also followed Mrs. Shi's usual preferences, so she curled her lips while listening, and muttered:

"I have to order these plays."

Baochai didn't want to sit with her, so she heard it, so she said with a smile:
"You Bai has listened to the play for the past few years, how would you know that this play has good rhetoric?"

Baoyu showed disbelief when he heard the words, curled his lips and said:

"I've never been afraid of these lively scenes."

He must be the only one who dares to say this.

Everyone else knows that Mrs. Shi likes it, and every time they order a play, they order it according to the excitement.

It may be because of this that Baoyu listened too much.

Tired of hearing it all.

Baochai was not angry when she saw this, she just smiled and said: "If you want to talk about this lively scene, you don't even know the show!"

Seeing Baoyu's disbelief, Baochai said again:

"This play is a set of "Crimson Lips at the North Point", which is sonorous and frustrating. Needless to say, the rhythm is good."

"What's more, there is a parasitic weed in that rhetoric, which is wonderful. How did you know it?"

Seeing that Baoyu had spoken so well at this time, he came closer and begged:

"Good sister, read it to me!"

When Baochai saw that he was making a play by himself and had nothing else to do, he read:

"While weeping for the heroes, I left the family of the scholar, thanked you for your mercy, and was ordained under the lotus platform.

There is no way, and we are separated in a blink of an eye.

Naked, come and go without worries.

Where is it a single line to discuss smoke, rain, hats and hats?

Once my straw shoes break the bowl and follow the fate! "

"Mountain Gate" is also called "Drunken Beating the Mountain Gate", which is a section of the Water Margin story.

It tells the story that after Lu Zhishen beat the bully Zheng Tu to death, he avoided misfortune and became a monk in Wutai Mountain, and because he was drunk and smashed up the monastery and monks, he was sent elsewhere by his master Zhizhen.

Parasitic grass is the name of the song.

The passage that Baochai said was exactly the passage that Lu Zhishen sang when he said goodbye to his master, which is quite Zen-like.

Baoyu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he patted his knees and shook his head happily.

He was full of praise for a while, and kept saying:

"Okay, okay! Sister Bao is really well-read and knowledgeable, and she knows nothing without books!"

Seeing Baoyu making a fuss, Daiyu gave him a blank look.

"Sister Bao is very knowledgeable and knowledgeable, but you don't have knowledge without reading, and you don't want to be quiet when you watch a play?"

Speaking of this, he curled his mouth again and said with disdain:
"You haven't sung 'Mountain Gate' yet, you've started to 'play crazy'."

Baoyu didn't dare to provoke her, so he could only laugh dryly.

But I still savor the song "Parasite Grass" in my heart.

For a moment, it only seemed to suit his state of mind,
Especially the sentence "come and go naked without any worries".

At this time, it was Wang Xifeng's turn to play.

The grandson can disregard the old lady's preferences, but her granddaughter-in-law naturally doesn't.

Moreover, Wang Xifeng not only knows that Mrs. Shi likes to be lively, but also knows that she prefers to have a lot of jokes.

Immediately, I clicked on "Liu Er Dangyi", and Mrs. Shi really liked it more.

It can be seen from this that Wang Xifeng, the grandson's daughter-in-law, is really a hundred times stronger than her grandson.

All of a sudden, Baoqin, Daiyu, Miaoyu, Shi Xiangyun and other foreigners ordered.

Baoyu, Ying, Tan, Xi Sanchun, Li Wan and other family members also ordered.

Three troupes, press out to perform.

So everyone went to the theater and left in the evening.

After returning to the room, Baoyu was still immersed in the song, looking as if he had lost his soul.

Seeing this, Xiren sighed: "Ladies and sisters all like it, why are you like this again?"

Baoyu was still mad when he heard the words, but said in his mouth:
"Women and sisters, what does it matter to me whether they like it or not?"

He spoke and sang, saying:
"There is no fate, we are separated in a blink of an eye."

Xiren was taken aback, frowned and said, "Second Master, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"There's nothing stupid to say, I'm just naked, and I don't care about coming and going."

He said and sang again, and when he reached this sentence, tears fell down without realizing it.

Seeing this, Xiren dared not speak to him again.

Baoyu thought about the meaning of this sentence and couldn't help crying.

Weeping and crying, he turned over and stood up, went to the desk, and wrote a verse with a pen:
You prove me, you prove your mind.

There is no evidence, Si Keyun evidence.

There is no proof, it is a foothold.

After finishing writing, I feel that although I understand it, others may not understand it after reading it.

So he filled out another "Parasitic Grass" and wrote it after the gatha.

Read it again, and feel that you have nothing to worry about before going to bed.

The next day, it was the right day.

Feng Yibo, the grandson-in-law, also came to celebrate the old matriarch's birthday.

After he went to the back to worship his birthday, he went to the front hall to be entertained by Jia Zheng and other men.

Many of Jia Zheng's clean-ups also arrived.

As soon as there were more people, Jia Zheng decided to let his son show his face.

Immediately, he called Baoyu and asked with a smile:

"Have you read any books recently?"

When Baoyu heard this, he fell silent.

In fact, even if he said a few words casually, everyone praised him and passed.

But now that he is silent, Jia Zheng loses face.

Knowing that Baoyu had been listening to operas in the back house for the past two days, he slapped the table and cursed:

"You bastard, you only watch operas and listen to music all day long, so you might as well write plays from now on!"

Baoyu shrank her neck in fright, but was also reminded, and said:
"What my father said is that I wrote a song yesterday, and I asked my father to taste it."

As he spoke, he went to the desk and raised his pen to write down the Buddha's gatha.

Lay another piece of paper underneath, and write the title: "Parasitic Grass · Interpretation"

No self is not you, since he doesn't understand Iraq, he can come and go without hindrance.

Feeling sad and happy?Are they saying how close they are?What was the reason for the mediocrity in the past?
So far, it's boring to look back!
This song "Parasitic Grass" was written by Baoyu after writing "San Chan Gather".

So the topic is called Jieyao.

"There is no self, it is not you", which is taken from "Zhuangzi Equality of Things":
"There is nothing that is not there, and nothing that is not for me."

Without it there is no me, and without me there is nothing to embody it.

"I" and "that" refer to the relationship between "I" and "Tao".

Baoyu was borrowed and placed in the Buddhist gatha, which became the relationship between "I" and "Zen".

Jia Zheng was in a daze at this moment, and he never thought that Jia Baoyu would do this.

Speaking of writing a song, I really wrote a song.

Look at the content again.

Well!Also realized the Zen machine.

Fortunately, the song is a good song, so I don't delay showing my face.

As for the others, wait for everyone to disperse, and then settle accounts with him.

So Jia Zheng handed it to everyone for circulation.

Because Feng Yibo's status was considered top among all the guests, it was in his hands first.

It's not the first time he has participated, and he knows the process of this matter.

Praise is over.

So as soon as he read the first Buddhist verse, he smiled and said:
"Brother Baoyu is really amazing. He has already gained a bit of the sincerity of Master Shenxiu at such a young age."
