serious man in the red chamber

Chapter 489 The psychic jade is broken
  The fifth watch is the darkest time of the night.

Several lanterns on the Dong'anmen Gate Tower were blown by the night wind.

The sound of horse hooves coming from Dong'anmen Street pierced the night sky, and then several fast horses crossed the street like lightning, galloping towards Dong'anmen. A stream of sparks burst out from the street stones passed by their galloping iron hooves!
  "Who!" the imperial guards patrolling the city tower shouted.

"it's me!"

Jia Lian suddenly reined in the reins and shouted back: "I have something urgent to come to the palace and want to see the emperor!"

"Hey, it's Mr. Xiaoge! Please wait a moment, I'll report it right away!"

The man from the tower replied loudly, his tone already very respectful.

Jia Lian dismounted and threw the reins to the guard.

At this time, a torch was raised on the city wall, and then a rough voice came: "Mr. Xiaoge, don't embarrass me with such an errand at this time. It's almost dawn, so you can wait a little longer."

Jia Lian: "General Wang, you know, if it's not a big deal, I won't alert the Emperor now. Please go in and report it."

Wang Wu was in trouble. After thinking for a moment, he had to say: "Let's do it. I'll go in and take a look."

Jia Lian breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the stone steps aside.
  A long key was inserted into the large copper lock of Donghua Gate.

Two eunuchs lifted and removed the heavy door bars on their shoulders.

The huge palace door clicked open.

Under the light of a lantern, Jia Lian walked quickly into the palace gate surrounded by four forbidden soldiers.
  According to the rules of the palace, all palace maids and eunuchs must get up at the beginning of the Yin hour and light the lamps at the end of the Yin hour.

People were looking forward to it, and lanterns were lit up one after another under the eaves of Qianqing Palace, Jiaotai Palace and Kunning Palace. The inside and outside of Kunning Palace were brilliant.

In the brightly lit Kunning Palace hall, many maids and eunuchs were busy.

In the bedroom, Jia Hu had already gotten up and was sitting on the couch wearing his outer robe.

At this time, Lin Daiyu walked out of the gauze curtain wearing a big-breasted coat and said, "What's going on right now?"

Jia Hu: "It must be about Rongguo Mansion." Then he yawned, "Go back to bed quickly."

Lin Daiyu listened, thought for a moment, turned around and walked in.

Zicuckoo hurried in and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to wash up?"

Jia Hu waved his hand: "No, I need to take a nap later!" After saying that, he breathed again.

Zicuckoo thought for a while and handed a bowl of hot tea to Jia Hu.

At this time, Ma Shun walked in quickly and silently, and said softly: "Your Majesty, Xiao Ge Lao is here."

Jia Hu put down the tea bowl and said, "Let him come in."

Ma Shun: "Yes." He replied and walked out.

After a while, Jia Lian hurriedly walked in, said hello to Jia Hu, and then said softly: "Something happened, Brother Bao killed the attacker!"

Jia Hu frowned: "That's it?!"

Jia Lian: "Brother Bao not only killed the attacker, but also almost stabbed the second wife."

"Oh?"

Jia Hu became interested and looked at Jia Lian, "What's going on?"

Jia Lian continued: "The old lady originally planned to drive Miaoyu out of the Grand View Garden. Brother Bao knelt in the Rongqing Hall for most of the night. The old lady felt soft, so she pinched her nose and admitted it. But the attacker told him about it again. Second Madam, by the way, the attacker was instructed by the Second Madam to report the matter in front of the old lady."

"Sit down and sit down."

Pointing to the chair, Jia Hu said to Zijuan: "Hurry up and serve the tea." After saying that, he picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, put it down, and looked at Jia Lian with excitement.

Jia Lian sat down on a chair nearby. "The second wife has been watching indifferently at the Cuicui Temple all these years, so she can see clearly. How could she tolerate Miaoyu seducing Brother Bao, disregarding etiquette, and corrupting his moral character! There has been no trouble before, It's because the emperor didn't issue a decree to confer a treasure reward brother, so there was an informant! I'm sorry for bothering Sister Zicuckoo." As he spoke, he stood up, took the tea on the tea tray, took a sip, and then said: "The second wife doesn't like Miao Jade at all. , thinking she was a fox. Brother Bao knelt in the old lady's house for most of the night for her. He felt more and more that she was a fox who could manipulate Brother Bao. After getting the news, Brother Bao rushed to Brother Bao's courtyard with Xiren and Zhou Rui's family. , while Brother Bao was still in the second master’s room, he forced the mother-in-law to throw Miaoyu out while she was still lying on the hospital bed.”

Jia Hu quickly interrupted: "Thrown it out?"

Jia Lian smiled bitterly: "If this were not the case, Brother Bao would not have gone crazy. According to Lai Sheng's family, Miaoyu was stripped down to her thin underwear and thrown directly into Ningrong Street. Fortunately, she was already three years old. It’s almost midnight, no one can be seen on the street.”

When Jia Hu heard this, the light in his eyes flashed. This was no different from being naked!

"Brother Bao went crazy at that time, smashed the psychic jade, tore off the sword on the wall, and killed the attacker with one sword. If the Zhou Rui family hadn't blocked the sword for the second wife, the sword would have struck directly on the attacker. On the second wife’s neck!”

Having said this, Jia Lian picked up the tea bowl and drank, his hands trembling slightly, "It was so dangerous! It almost caused a human tragedy."

Jia Hu nodded and suddenly came back to his senses: "The psychic jade is broken?!"

"Broken."

Jia Lian took a sip of tea and put it down. "It fell on the corner of the large marble table and shattered on the spot!"

Jia Hu: "Oh? What material is it made of?"

Jia Lian was silent for a moment and replied: "Yuhua agate stone."

"Yuhua Stone?" Jia Hu was stunned for a moment.

As big as a bird's egg, as bright as a bright cloud, as smooth as a crisp, and wrapped in five-color patterns, isn't this a fine rain flower stone?

Jia Lian cleared his throat: "Brother Bao is sick. His eyes are staring blankly, he is hot and sweating, his face is purple and swollen, fluid is flowing from the corners of his mouth, and his hands and feet are cold. Mr. Wang said it is phlegm syndrome."

"Baoyu is crazy?!"

"Mr. Wang said that as long as he takes good care of himself and rests well, the disease will get better."

At this point, Jia Lian sighed, "The second wife is crazy, she is really crazy this time!"

After a pause, "The second master was so angry that he still hasn't woken up. The old lady is not doing well either."

Before she could finish her words, Lin Daiyu came out and asked urgently: "How is the old lady doing?"

Jia Lian stood up in a hurry and said, "Your Majesty."

Lin Daiyu: "What's wrong with the old lady?"

Jia Lian bowed and replied: "It's because of the anger. Mr. Wang said that this is also a common disease for people in the Spring and Autumn Period. They can take a few doses of medicine and nurse themselves back to health."

Lin Daiyu felt relieved after hearing this, and asked again: "Where is the second master?"

Jia Lian: "I came to the palace to ask the emperor to send Dr. Wang to treat the second master."

Lin Daiyu nodded. Doctor Wang is now the dean of the Taiyuan Hospital. Without her and Jia Hu's orders, he cannot treat others.

Jia Hu shouted: "Ma Shun! You lead ten imperial guards to go to the Imperial Hospital immediately and protect Imperial Physician Wang as he goes to treat Prince Rong."

The horse outside the door responded with a sound, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps.

There was silence.

The chiming clock on the side of the hall rang. Jia Lian glanced at it and saw that it was a quarter past two o'clock.

Jia Hu breathed a sigh of relief.

Jia Lian bowed and saluted: "I take my leave!" After saying that, he walked out of the palace door.

Jia Hu stood up and said, "It's okay." He held Lin Daiyu in his arms and walked into the gauze curtain, saying at the same time: "Mr. Wang is very skilled in medicine, so everything will be fine. As for Baoyu, isn't he getting married soon? It's a good time."

　I just wrote one, there will be no update tomorrow.
