Pingyang Fu of the Red Chamber

Chapter 309
in Beijing,

When Emperor Wu Zhou Shihong was furious in the imperial study,
Zhang Jinyu was in Jinling City in the south of the Yangtze River, and was about to go back to rest with someone. The girls were still whispering excitedly, discussing how beautiful and talented the oirans in Yunliang Pavilion who were about to be elected were, which was a bit pitiful.

Zhang Jinyu walked behind and listened to the conversation of the women and shook her head. Isn't this just a cat crying and a mouse pretending to be merciful? Those women in this land, some of them are concubines, it's better to live here, those rich families, aristocratic families A lot of women who went in died unjustly. Besides, the oiran had a master, and he didn't accept customers, and he didn't sell himself as a performer.

If you save enough money, you can still redeem yourself, and if you meet your favorite scholar, maybe you can get a Dawu version of A Chinese Ghost Story.

Jinling City,
The Jufang on the west bank of Jinghu Lake in Beicheng, where many dignitaries and dignitaries from the south of the Yangtze River have their homes.

The mansion of the transshipment envoy Xu Delin was also closed, and the mansion was brightly lit.

on the street,
There was a figure running quickly on the street, who was Cheng Yafu's long follower, hurried to the mansion of Jiangnan transfer Shi Xu Delin in one breath.

When they reached the gate, they didn't stop, they reached out and slammed on the door, shouting;
"Quick, open the door."

The long follower yelled and slammed on the door vigorously, the sound of "bang bang" knocking on the door was heard in the mansion, and the steward of the porter cursed angrily,
"Whoever doesn't have eyes, dares to come here to mess around, be careful of your skin."

With that said, he opened the side door and walked out.

Chang Sui took a deep breath and shouted without waiting for the steward to speak again;
"I am the long follower of the head of Yuelin Academy. Hurry up and tell Mr. Xu that your young master offended Luo Yunhou in Yunliang Pavilion and is now being taken into custody by Mr. Xu. Please think of a way quickly, Mr. Xu. "

The steward who wanted to scold at first, heard that something happened to the master's young master, so he asked anxiously;
"Which Luo Yunhou is it? Didn't the young master go to the academy with him?"

"It's the Marquis Luo Yun outside the pass. I'm following, but the young master offended Lord Hou. I'm too anxious about this matter, and it will be too late."

The long follower was also talking out of breath for a long time, and the steward hurried into the yard when he saw it, and immediately shouted,
"Hurry up, prepare the frame quickly, and wait at the door. It's better for this man to wait here."

After finishing speaking, he trotted all the way, and after entering the courtyard, he ran to the master's study room. He did not shy away from it all the way, and shouted when he saw the servants;

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way."

Menacing and making a lot of noise, when they arrived at the study in the backyard, they entered the room without knocking on the door, shouting;
"My lord, my lord, it's urgent."

in the library,
Xu Delin, the transshipment envoy from the south of the Yangtze River, was still practicing calligraphy on the desk. When he heard that the steward rushed in without any rules, he was also unhappy, and asked,

"What's going on in a hurry."

After finishing speaking, he slammed the brush in his hand and threw it on the table.

The steward entered the room, saw that the master was angry, and shrank his neck in fright, but still shouted;
"My lord, something happened to my son. I somehow offended Luo Yunhou in Yunliang Pavilion. I heard that he was detained by Lord Hou. It was the long follower of the head of Yuelin Academy who came to complain."

"What, something happened to Tao'er, but what did you say?"

Xu Delin was also startled, what's going on, how did he offend Luo Yunhou, and quickly asked what happened.

But the steward shook his head and replied,
"Master, I don't know, that kid didn't say anything, but the young one has arranged for his servants at the Foreign Office, the frame is ready, and he can leave at any time,"

"Then what are you waiting for, take the guards and that long entourage, and go, to see Luo Yunhou."

Xu Delin also felt sorry for his beloved son, so he was not willing to wait. After explaining something, he walked out of the study and ran to the front yard in a hurry. Because he was walking too fast, he almost fell, and the steward behind him hurried over to help him.

"Master, please slow down, master, the younger ones have been called."

"Quick, quick, go."

After arriving outside the mansion, Xu Delin boarded the carriage, the steward himself drove the carriage in front, and the rest followed behind on horseback.
"Then follower, sit up quickly and tell me what's going on?"

After hearing this, the chief follower hurriedly jumped onto the front of the carriage, sat down, and shouted loudly with the steward;
"Drive, drive."

The carriage also got up, Chang Sui sat in front and held the door and said;
"Reply, master, the young master should have arranged for someone to design the Xue family, and beat the young master of the Xue family. It was fine, but Luo Yunhou was upstairs, and he directly took the young master down, and the young master was also killed." beated."

Although the long follower didn't say clearly, but Xu Delin knew what was going on in his heart. She was not his wife. Her mother's family was interested in the property of Xue's family, but she couldn't do anything about it. She wanted her to be her main wife, so she never went to Xue's family to propose marriage, and she knew a thing or two about this matter.

What the Xue family said was backed by the Wang family and the Jia family, what did the woman think, Xu Delin had a headache.

Could it be that people from the East Prince's Mansion intervened in this matter? Thinking of the East Prince's Mansion, Xu Delin was even more skeptical. Jiangnan, which had been peaceful for a long time, is now being sought by various forces here, hey.

However, why Luo Yunhou would get involved, I can't figure it out, the Wang family?But Patriarch Wang didn't make a move either.

"Hurry up,"

"Yes, sir, drive!"

The carriage moved a little faster.

And Zhang Jinyu and his party walked out of Yunliang Pavilion slowly, and were about to go back, and then everyone got into the carriage, and the team drove forward slowly.

Not far after walking out of the Qinhuai River, after passing the street in front, I heard shouts from behind,

"Master Hou stays behind, Lord Hou stays behind."

It turned out that it was Xu Delin who was driving all the way, and he hurried to catch up here. Seeing the driver in front, surrounded by many guards, the long follower pointed and shouted;

"My lord, the frame that left in front is, hurry up, they are all gone."

"where?"

Xu Delin lifted the curtain of the car, saw the convoy that had left in front, and shouted directly behind.

"Stop, wait, see who's coming."

When Zhang Jinyu heard the cry, he also uttered aloud to the outside. Duan Hong heard Hou Ye's order from outside the carriage, and immediately yelled,
"stop,"

The convoy stopped immediately, and the guards around them were also guarding the surroundings.

Behind,

Xu Delin was overjoyed when he saw the convoy of Lord Hou stopped in front, and urged,
"Quickly,"

"Yes, sir, we are here."

In a blink of an eye, he chased after him, and the carriage stopped on one side, then Xu Delin got out of the carriage with the support of the steward, stopped him directly in front of the carriage, and said;
"Your Majesty, Jiangnan Transfer Envoy Xu Delin pays a visit to Lord Hou."

After she finished speaking, she bowed deeply, and Zhang Jinyu lifted the curtain of the car and walked out. Seeing that the thin transferer was so sincere, she also sighed in her heart, pity the parents of the world.

They came quickly enough. Seeing that Mr. Xu was dressed casually, with a pair of wooden clogs on his feet, he must have come out in a hurry and didn't even change his shoes.

Zhang Jinyu also knew that the transfer envoy had little to do with Jiangnan, but the warning was to be warned, so he patted Xu Delin on the shoulder and said;
"Do you know what's going on?"

"Going back to Lord Hou, I know a thing or two. It's the dog and his wife who are troublesome. They hated Mr. Xue, which caused the disaster. It's the officials who are not strict in discipline. Please forgive me, Lord Hou."

Xu Delin also answered simply and neatly, bowing directly again, but Zhang Jinyu was taken aback for a moment,
"Master Xu is also an open-minded person. This Marquis is not a small-hearted person. The Xue family is attached to the Marquis Mansion. Besides, this Marquis still has some small businesses in the south of the Yangtze River. See?"

Xu Delin knew that Master Hou was negotiating terms. For some small goods, Xu Delin couldn't help but be stunned. Which aristocratic family in the capital and the nobles, the so-called small business in the south of the Yangtze River is transported north by boat. He directly agreed;
"Don't worry, Lord Hou, I understand in my heart that all goods outside the customs will be released in the future."

"Refreshing, Mr. Xu is refreshing, Duan Hong, let Mr. Xu go."

Zhang Jinyu also appreciates this person, he is a man of work, so it is difficult to ask Duan Hong to let that kid go, and it is difficult to keep it in his hands. The children of those academies don’t know what ugly words they will spread tomorrow, and the children of Jiangnan civil servants are also the same. It's getting more and more lawless.

And in the back, Duan Hong untied the rope tied to Mr. Xu, and then brought him over with his collar. Xu Delin saw Aiko's hair was scattered, his cheeks were red and swollen, and he didn't look like a nobleman. Although he felt distressed, but The mouth is not slow;

"You rebellious son, just listen to your mother's words and fool around. When you go back this time, go to the ancestral hall and kneel for me, and reflect on yourself."

When Mr. Xu saw his father, the tears of grievance poured out all at once. He didn't know that he heard his father's scolding before he could speak. He couldn't react and stood there for a while, not knowing what to do good.

Seeing this, Xu Delin also sighed in his heart, a loving mother who lost his way, without winking, came over and slapped Xu Rentao on the head, cursing;
"If you don't come here yet, make amends to Master Hou."

When Xu Rentao saw his father like this, he knew he couldn't offend him, and his expression was no longer arrogant, so he calmed down instantly and said honestly;
"Master Hou, this disciple realized his mistake. He offended Master Hou. He offended him so much. Please forgive him."

Then he bowed honestly and stood there.

Sure enough, it is worthy of being a family of officials and eunuchs, with a scholarly family, it really has a way, can bend and stretch, Jiangnan civil servants really have successors.

Zhang Jinyu also thought about it, and then said;

"Get up, don't do these dirty things in the future, go back and treat it well, it's all skin trauma."

"Thank you, Lord."

The father and son thanked each other again.

Zhang Jinyu waved his hand and returned to the carriage,

"Set off."

"drive."

The convoy continued to drive forward slowly, slowly leaving the sight of the father and son.

It wasn't until Lord Hou walked away that Xu Delin and Xu Rentao straightened up. The father and son touched their waists at the same time, with tired expressions on their faces.

"Father, why are we doing this, so that Xungui can't offend him?"

Xu Rentao asked in a distressed and puzzled manner, and then there was still some resentment in his heart. It was planned well and he had already said hello, but such an unexpected thing happened.It fell short.

Xu Delin looked over coldly, and only said one sentence;

"Yes, you're right. We can't interfere with the noble affairs, because he has a big official, great power, and many soldiers. He can control our life and death. Is it enough?"

After Xu Rentao heard his father's cold voice, he also shrank his neck, knowing that his father was angry, and what he said was straightforward enough, so he stopped talking.

"Father, what about the Xue family?"

I wanted to ask the Xue family what to do, but Xu Delin was furious when he heard the Xue family, and cursed;

"Xue family, Xue family, you and your mother are simply obsessed with ghosts. Behind the Xue family are the platforms of the Wang family and the Jia family. Let me ask you, when did you have this idea, or your mother arranged for you to do it, tell me Say, it stands to reason that your marriage is arranged by your father, why are you in such a hurry?"

"This"

Xu Rentao also dodged his father's stern eyes, and was speechless for a while, thinking about it, he felt inappropriate.

"Say it!"
