King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 71
In fact, Jia Lian, who raised his head, was also seen as dizzy at this moment.

He is a majestic son of Rongguo Mansion, how can he be stared at like now, this feeling makes him very uncomfortable.

On the other hand, Hou Jing and the others all had smiles on their faces, and they were discussing something quietly, which made Jia Lian feel even more humiliated.

At this moment, Zhu Jinghong also came back to his senses, and after putting aside the messy thoughts in his head, he asked, "Are you Jia Lian?"

"If you go back to Lord Thirteen, the villain is Jia Lian!"

However, before Jia Lian could answer, Hou Jing replied, "Master Thirteen, just now a woman reported that this person was trying to cheat along the way!"

"I think that with the family education of the Duke's Mansion, such a villainous mind cannot be cultivated, so this person is probably a fake!"

"Hou Jing, what do you mean? How did I offend you to plot against me in front of Lord Thirteen!"

Although the Rongguo Mansion is in decline, it is still the mansion of the dignified Duke. Being bullied to such an extent by Hou Jing, Jia Lian will have to justify his family's name no matter how cowardly he is.

Hou Jing immediately retorted: "Master Thirteen, we have witnesses, how can we say it is slander!"

It doesn't matter if Jia Lian's matter is big or small, it all depends on Zhu Jinghong's wishes.

But Hou Jing's rush to speak made Zhu Jinghong suspicious, wondering whether there was any festival between the two.

Zhu Jinghong can deal with him at will, but he can't be used as a gunman, especially if this person is his subordinate.

Hearing that the two were still blaming each other, Zhu Jinghong slapped his palm on the table with all his strength, and there was a "bang", which made everyone's hearts tremble.

The musicians stopped playing, and several singers also froze in place, not knowing how to deal with themselves for a while.

Hou Jing quickly knelt on the ground, quietly glanced at Zhu Jinghong's face, and found that the other party was already angry.

"The two of you are both queens of the state, but now they are like shrews swearing at the street, and they are not as free and easy as they used to be..."

"Today I am having fun with all the talents, what do you two mean by tearing up like this?"

Although he was training Hou and Jia, when Zhu Jinghong spoke, everyone around him trembled, especially He Jiayan's hands were trembling.

"What are you thinking? Don't look at me. I don't know. I'm not blind..."

Speaking of the last three words, Zhu Jinghong slapped the table again, causing He Jiayan to stand up in fright.

"Brother He, I didn't mention you, sit down!"

"Yes, Lord Thirteen!" He Jiayan's complexion turned pale, and he sat back with half of his buttocks.

"Jia Lian, what's going on, tell the truth!"

After finally having a chance to defend himself, Jia Lian quickly replied: "Master Thirteen, I came following the sound of singing and dancing, but unexpectedly stepped into the security zone of the Beijing camp, so I was arrested..."

"This is all a misunderstanding, I hope... I hope the Thirteenth Master will find out!"

With a gloomy expression, Zhu Jinghong looked at Hou Jing and asked, "Is that so?"

Unsure of Zhu Jinghong's intentions, Hou Jing could only reply: "This... I don't know very well, Jin Yiwei arrested him!"

"Not very clear? Huh...then you are confused!"

Hou Jing hurriedly borrowed the slope to get off the donkey: "I drank two more glasses tonight. I am really confused. I hope the thirteenth master will forgive me!"

At this moment Hou Jing couldn't help guessing whether Zhu Jinghong had noticed his desire to use Zhu Jinghong to punish Jia Lian.

Ever since the Thirteenth Lord fell ill, it seems that he is no longer a simple reckless man...Hou Jing felt a little wronged.

"It's shameful to make a fuss over a molehill, get out!" Zhu Jinghong scolded directly.

In fact, the imperial court can also be regarded as a family. The royal family is the master of the family, and the courtiers are the servants of the family.

If the master does not use his majesty to intimidate him, today the subordinates can use the master, and tomorrow these people will be slaves to suppress the master.

The reason why the prince can't do errands is because he is too easy-going, so that the people below dare to prevaricate.

"Yes!"

Hou Jing and the two answered again and again, then retreated out respectfully, and the peaceful atmosphere in the courtyard was restored, but the atmosphere was always a little strange.

Everyone in the garden put aside their innocence, and would never believe Zhu Jinghong's "nonsense" again, and believe that everyone is friends.

Just now when Zhu Jinghong got angry, he let them intuitively feel the power of the royal heir.

In their eyes now, Zhu Jinghong is just a tiger, and they are just vegetarian little white rabbits, but now they are sitting together in groups.

The tiger smiled warmly, spoke kindly to everyone, and was condescending, unknowingly making them let down their vigilance.

Now that the tiger is showing its power, not to mention the second generation of local officials, even the sons of top honors like Hou Jing, they are equally frightened and trembling.

Let's talk about the two of Hou Jing, when they left Feiyunzhai, the calm two began to curse on the spot.

"Hou, you are really not a thing. I offended you, and you want to hurt me like this..."

"Hit you? It's obvious that you harmed me. In front of the Thirteenth Master, you just said that I slandered you. Did I slander you?"

"I harmed you? Then why don't you explain it clearly to Lord Thirteen?"

Explain clearly?At that time Zhu Jinghong was angry, but Hou Jing didn't have the guts.

"It's none of your business, I'll write down today's account, let's settle it slowly when we return to Beijing!" Hou Jing looked unhappy.

"I'm afraid you can't do it?" Jia Lian boldly replied, he was really afraid in his heart.

Then he turned around and was about to leave, he always felt flustered staying here.

But someone shouted: "Brother Jia Lian wait a minute, Lord Thirteen wants to see you, please wait in the tea room!"

The person who came was Lu Yuxin, and what he said made Jia Lian feel bitter, and his legs trembled when he thought of Zhu Jinghong.

Hou Jing was also worried. He was afraid that Jia Lian would speak ill of him when he was summoned alone.

"Yes!"

"Brother Jia Lian, please!" Lu Yuxin stepped aside.

After the house re-entered the gate, Hou Jing suddenly said, "Brother Jia Lian, Yuxin...you called him very kindly!"

Lu Yuxin was about to enter the door, but he could only stop when he heard this, and explained with a smile: "Brother Hou, don't make fun of me, we are just following orders!"

He, Lu Yuxin, whose father was only a matter of the local guard, was completely incomparable with these top dignitaries, so naturally he didn't want to get involved in their fight.

It was not easy for him to make up for the Dragon Guards. It was his pursuit to seal his wife and son under the lintel of Guangyao, and nothing else was important.

"That person surnamed Jia is not a good guy, don't let him hurt you!"

Nodding his head, Lu Yuxin said in a deep voice, "I remember it!"

Afterwards, Lu Yuxin also entered the door. He had to settle Jia Lian and take him to see Zhu Jinghong in a while.

Seeing Lu Yuxin following behind, Jia Lian immediately stepped forward and asked, "I don't know what to call Xiongtai?"

The attire of Lu Yuxinlong's imperial guards certainly does not come from a low family background. Now that Jia Lian has a request from him, he will call him "Brother".

"Under Lu Yuxin!"

"It turned out to be Brother Lu. I don't know why the Thirteenth Lord wants to see me?"

"Master Thirteen didn't say anything!"

"How does Thirteen feel?"

"It's hard to guess!"

Jia Lian saluted solemnly and said, "I'm really uneasy. Brother Lu, would you like to go and have a look for me? Today's great kindness, Jia Lian must be kept in mind, and there will be rich rewards in the future!"

He was also really frightened, so he took the liberty to ask Lu Yuxin at this moment.

Picking up the teacup, Jia Lian's hands trembled, causing all the tea in it to spill out.

"If the Thirteenth Master is in a happy mood, then thank God. If the Thirteenth Master is still angry, I'll be prepared!"

Seeing that Lu Yuxin remained silent for a long time, Jia Lian pleaded: "Brother Lu, you will never die without saving your life!"

The Jia family is now in decline, but after all, it is still the residence of the Duke, and now it is just a small favor, and Lu Yuxin is actually not very repulsive.

If he refuses at this time, it will cause Jia Lian to feel hatred, and it will be troublesome for Lu Yuxin.

"Look at my gestures for a while!"

Hearing this, Jia Lian bowed deeply again and said, "Thank you, Brother Lu!"
