King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 277 What Are Rules?
"It's past the Shen time now, let's hurry up and arrive at the Rongguo Mansion earlier, so I can go to see the ancestors first!"

After Xiangyun ordered the outside woman, the little girl beside him couldn't help but asked: "Girl, there are two wives who are helping you so much, there is no suspense for you to enter the palace, why bother to make a special trip to see that Miss Xue!"

"What do you know... don't the two wives be more thoughtful than you!" Xiang Yun had a look of hatred.

That's right, this was unprecedented. For the first time, his two aunts reached an agreement to let her go in to Jia's house just to talk to Xue Baochai.

Seeing that the two girls were still in a daze, Xiang Yun explained: "This elder sister of the Xue family is highly appreciated by the empress, and the ladies must be thinking... If I have her to take care of me in the future, I will have a better life in the palace. !"

Although she does not agree with the arrangement of the two aunts, Xiangyun understands that the two elders have no bad intentions, they are indeed thinking about her future.

Xiangyun continued on her way, but she didn't know that someone was still thinking about her.

At this moment, Zhu Jinghong was very surprised. Sure enough, there are many beautiful women on the ground in the capital, and they are all beautiful.

What makes Zhu Jinghong deeply regretful is that these beauties are all confined to the boudoir. Normally, except for his father, brother and family, it is basically impossible for outsiders to see them.

When Zhu Jinghong was thinking wildly, Deng An outside told him that it was time.

Undoubtedly, martial law has been imposed inside and outside the palace, and there is no idler within 100 meters, which can guarantee absolute safety.

After getting out of the sedan chair, Zhu Jinghong smiled with great satisfaction when he saw the magnificent gate ahead.

However, the next moment, his smile gradually disappeared, only because he looked up and saw the plaque on the gate.

"Prince Xiang's Mansion...why is it Prince Xiang's Mansion?"

Hearing this, the left and right were extremely surprised, what else could it be if it wasn't Prince Xiang's Mansion?

Zhu Jinghong was conferred the title of King Xiang. This matter is still under procedure in the Ministry of Rites, but the news has spread in a small area.

It's just that Zhu Jinghong never asked and didn't care about this matter, so no one secretly revealed it to him, but everyone thought he already knew.

"Master Thirteen, this is Prince Xiang's Mansion...we went to the right place!" Lu Yuxin bit the bullet and explained.

"You... well, what I mean is, how can I be named King Xiang!"

These words surprised everyone even more, why can't you be named King Xiang?
At this time Zhang Lin explained: "Master Thirteen, according to the system established by the ancestors, the emperor's sons are all crowned princes, and you are right to be crowned King Xiang!"

Seeing that these two people were not on the same channel as him, Zhu Jinghong simply stopped talking, and he was not in the mood to visit the mansion at this moment.

"Master Thirteen, please?"

Prince Xiang's Mansion has basically been repaired, and its layout is similar to that of Prince Rui's Mansion, after all, there is nothing to see.

But since he came, Zhu Jinghong couldn't come in vain, so he held his nose and went into the mansion to visit.

After simply turning around, Zhu Jinghong left the mansion, and ordered to return to the palace immediately after getting into the sedan chair.

He planned to see the emperor and discuss with him about the next king.

He is a majestic thirteenth master, how can he be granted the title of King Xiang, and people in later generations will not laugh at him when they know it, just like a condiment.

Of course, there is another key reason why he is so against King Xiang.

King Xiang intends that goddesses are ruthless... If this old saying is followed, there are so many beauties and goddesses in the Red Chamber, wouldn't they all have no fate.

When Zhu Jinghong returned to the palace, Jia Lian, who was drinking flower wine in the brothel, received a report from the servant.

Today, when Baochai was taken back to the mansion, Jia Lian greeted Xue Pan and came to drink in his favorite brothel.

Xue Pan is also really ridiculous, his sister finally took leave to go home, but he didn't go back to talk to the family.

Of course, Xue Pan had a valid reason to go out, and whenever Aunt Xue asked, he used the errand assigned by Zhu Jinghong as an excuse.

Jia Lian was no exception, so he lied to Wang Xifeng that he had gone to practice martial arts on the grounds that the clan had restarted martial arts.

"Second Master, something happened in the mansion again?"

Hearing that something happened to the Jia family, Xue Pan, who was drowsy with the woman in his arms, came back to life in an instant, wanting to hear the gossip of the Jia family.

"What's the matter?" Jia Lian asked casually, he didn't think any major event would happen at home.

"I heard the rumors from the girl in the mansion that Second Master Bao..."

When he heard that it was about Baoyu, Jia Lian immediately turned pale and asked, "What's wrong with him?"

The little servant replied hesitantly: "Second Master Bao... broke into the inner house and scolded... Miss Xue!"

Upon hearing this, Jia Lian stood up immediately in fright, and woke up mostly drunk for a while.

Feeling the chill from his back, Jia Lian asked coldly, "What's going on? This bastard...how dare he be so presumptuous!"

In Jia Lian's view, this Baoyu is simply a lunatic, and now he is getting more and more insane.

"Brother Xue... this bastard, I have to go back and teach him a lesson, so farewell!"

Seeing that Jia Lian was about to leave, Xue Pan hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother Bao is still young, he just quarreled with Girl Bao, so childish...why do you have to go to war so much!"

Obviously, Xue Pan has a very good impression of Baoyu, who is delicate and handsome, so he will lightly reveal this matter at this moment.

My own elder brother was fine, but he made Jia Lian's cousin so anxious, it seemed strange no matter how you looked at it.

Does Jia Lian have ideas about Baochai?
As a man, Xue Pan thought he understood Jia Lian, so he couldn't help feeling wary at this moment.

How could Jia Lian have thought that Xue Pan's brain circuit would be so strange.

"What childishness? I think this idiot just needs a beating. Let's see if I don't teach him a lesson when I go back!"

Zhu Jinghong had told him to take care of Baochai, how could Jia Lian dare to neglect him.

What's more, Jia Baoyu's behavior may bring disaster to the family, and it is very likely that Jia Lian himself will be implicated. Even for himself, he has to teach Baoyu a lesson.

Jia Lian left in a hurry, Xue Pan wanted to stay longer, but when he thought of his wronged sister, he had no intention of staying any longer.

The two returned to Rongguo Mansion on horseback. Jia Lian rushed to Baoyu Courtyard angrily, but saw that the gate was closed tightly.

"Open the door..."

Jia Lian scolded coldly, followed by two young servants, and soon Xue Pan followed.

Seeing that Jia Lian was really angry, Xue Pan couldn't help but stepped forward to persuade him: "I said, Second Brother Lian, it's just a child's vindictiveness, it's nothing serious..."

Apparently Xue Pan thought things too simply. If he had personally experienced the phenomenon of conflict, he would roll up his sleeves and hit someone at this moment.

"Brother Xue, this is our family matter, don't interfere..."

Damn it, if this story spreads to the palace, Master Thirteen will blame himself for not being able to shed his skin?
Thinking of this, Jia Lian became more and more angry, and his fingers were clenched into fists.

"Second Brother Lian, but this..."

Xue Pan was about to speak when the door of the small courtyard was opened, but it was Xiren himself who opened the door.

"Second Lord Lian..."

Glancing at Xiren, Jia Lian asked sharply, "Where is Baoyu, tell him to get out!"

In fact, Jia Baoyu, who heard the commotion, was sitting by the window at the moment, observing the situation outside through the gap.

"Our second master... he's not here!"

Xiren wanted to help Baoyu hide it, but she still missed her timidity after all, and Jia Lian saw the clue.

Even a servant dared to lie to him, which made Jia Lian's teeth itch, so he kicked the attacker.

The attacker didn't have time to hide, after being kicked there was a scream, and then he fell to the ground and cried.

Seeing this situation, the other girls in the yard were terrified, and they all stood still and dared not vent their anger.

Seeing Xiren being beaten made Jia Baoyu feel distressed, but he still didn't have the courage to go out.

However, Jia Lian didn't wait for him, and went directly to the house to look for him, but Jia Baoyu couldn't avoid it.

Since you can't avoid it, you might as well admit your mistake obediently.

Thinking of this, Jia Baoyu simply appeared, lowered his head and called "Second Brother".

"You bumped into your sister Bao today?"

"It's her talking nonsense and slandering sister Lin, that's why I..."

The matter has been determined, Jia Lian doesn't care about the specific situation, and immediately scolded: "How many times have I told you to respect sister Xue, have you ever remembered it?"

"Nowadays, the family rules are strictly enforced in the house, and today you go to the back house again, can you take the family rules to heart?"

Hearing Jia Lian's question, Baoyu had no way of answering, so he could only stand obediently and listen to the training.

"A bastard like you who is so rebellious, disrespectful, and reckless, wants to kill our whole family?"

Jia Baoyu didn't dare to refute at this moment, he could only keep begging for mercy, and promised that he would never do it again.

Seeing Jia Lian rolling up his sleeves slowly, Jia Lian said indifferently, "Today, I will replace Second Uncle and teach you what is called rules and what is called decency!"

When Jia Baoyu was stunned, Jia Lian's slap had already slapped Jia Baoyu's face, and then the second slap rushed over, hitting the other half of Jia Baoyu's face.
