Corrupt official in the Red Chamber

Chapter 191 Jia Rui
Jia Rui and Zhao Jin chatted for a few more words, and then they came to the main hall of Longshou Palace together.

After arriving here, Jia Rui waited outside while Zhao Jin went in to report.

After a while, news came out, asking Jia Rui to meet him.

After receiving the news, Jia Rui straightened his clothes, pretended to be trembling, and entered the main hall. When he looked up, he saw that there was no one from the Supreme Emperor on the throne.

Jia Rui immediately followed the wall to the next cubicle.

When I entered the compartment, I saw that the Supreme Emperor was sitting on the Kang.

Jia Rui quickly stepped forward and knelt down to kowtow.

"Hurry up and help Mr. Jia up."

A young eunuch next to him immediately stepped forward and helped Jia Rui up.

After Jia Rui stood up, he raised his head and peeked at the Supreme Emperor. He was relieved when he saw that the Supreme Emperor's face was calm.

"Are you scared?"

The Supreme Emperor's ridicule came from above.

Jia Rui pretended to be scared, touched the sweat on his head, and then whispered back: "I am so scared that my whole body is weak."

The Supreme Emperor sitting above nodded, and then said: "You don't need to take this matter to heart. No emperor in any dynasty has ever encountered this kind of thing. This is just a way for the people below to fight for power."

After saying this, the Supreme Emperor looked at the zenith with his eyes, thought for a moment and then said: "Although this matter has been suppressed, I don't know if any stupid young man will arrest him and talk about it in the future. I think about it after a while , you also serve as a bachelor in the cabinet, so that it will be legitimate for you to handle the government affairs in the future."

After hearing this, Jia Rui burst into tears of gratitude.

He must be the Supreme Emperor!The soul-catching talisman was indeed useless.

"Okay, get up!"

After the Supreme Emperor asked Jia Rui to stand up again, he waved his hand and immediately the little eunuch came and carried the table over.

Jia Rui was already very familiar with this routine, so he immediately thanked the Supreme Emperor and sat down at the table.

Afterwards, Dai Quan held dozens of memorials and placed them in front of Jia Rui.

Jia Rui immediately corrected the memorial with familiarity.

It was a bit late today because of the morning court. At noon, the Emperor asked Jia Rui to have lunch with him, and did not let Jia Rui go back until the afternoon.

After Jia Rui left the palace, the smile on his face disappeared, and his whole body felt weak.

I had been waiting for Jia Rui for a long time to make a fortune, so I hurried forward to help Jia Rui.

"Master, what's the matter with you?"

Jia Rui said nothing and waved his hand, which meant to go home quickly.

Wangcai immediately understood what Jia Rui meant, and quickly ordered someone to find a sedan outside. After helping Jia Rui into the sedan, a group of people gathered around the sedan and led the horse, and hurried back to Dingxihou Mansion.

And this is the Supreme Emperor who is in the Dragon Head Palace, and he is also listening to the reports from the people below to Jia Rui.

"Master Jia seemed to be so frightened that he almost collapsed to the ground as soon as he left the palace. His servants hired a sedan to carry Master Jia back."

The Emperor nodded gently after hearing this. Although he trusted Jia Rui very much, he still didn't want Jia Rui to lie to him.

It seems that Jia Rui's behavior in the palace is the same as outside. This incident should have frightened Jia Rui quite a lot.

The Supreme Emperor let out a long breath, and he understood in his heart that the reason why Jia Rui was able to control the situation in the court was because of himself.

If one day he is gone, the first person his successor will probably get rid of is Jia Rui.

"Hi!"

The Supreme Emperor sighed. Since he couldn't interfere with what happened after his death, he might as well let Jia Rui have fun while he was still alive!
"It is decreed that in the future, the memorial to impeach Jia Rui will not be sent to me for my review, but will be kept without publication."

"Yes." Dai Quan next to him agreed.

Besides, Jia Rui hurried home, entered the mansion, went to Xue Baochai's room, and lay on the bed motionless.

It has been smooth sailing for Jia Rui since he entered the imperial court. It has never been as dangerous as it is today. Even during the battle in Gansu, Jia Rui was not as unsure as he is today.

Just when Jia Rui was thinking wildly, a jade hand held a wet towel and wiped Jia Rui's face.

Jia Rui opened his eyes and saw that it was Brother Ying.

"Where has your eldest grandma gone?"

"Grandma went to Aunt You's place."

"What's going on there, Second Sister You?"

"Aunt You's place has been activated. It's been an hour and she hasn't given birth yet, so Grandma went over to take a look."

After hearing this, Jia Rui frowned and reluctantly supported his body, "Let's go over and have a look."

After saying that, he dragged his tired body and took Brother Ying out of the main house and walked to a luxurious courtyard.

The maid at the door of the yard saw Jia Rui coming and quickly saluted.

Jia Rui turned a blind eye and stepped into the yard, where he saw Xue Baochai standing in front of the yard with Ying'er and several maids.When they heard the noise, they looked back and saw Jia Rui coming, so they quickly came over to salute.

Jia Rui waved his hand to let them get up, and then asked Xue Baochai directly, "How is it inside?"

"Back to uncle, it started working not long after breakfast, and it hasn't been born yet."

Just such a plain sentence made Jia Rui's heart skip a beat.

In this way, it has been more than three hours. According to the modern timetable, it is already seven hours, but the second sister You inside still has not given birth.

Is it that Second Sister You is destined to not be able to escape this disaster?

It is reasonable to say that Second Sister You had a difficult delivery. Second Sister You's fragile body, coupled with the fact that Dingxi Houfu ate well and slept well, the fetus must be very big.

It is reasonable for Second Sister You to have a difficult delivery in this situation, but Jia Rui didn't notice this before, and now he feels a little regretful when he thinks about it.

Second Sister You must be saved.

Jia Rui thought for a moment, took out a bottle of medicine from his arms, and handed it to Brother Ying beside him.

"Take it in and feed it to Second Sister You."

Brother Ying has been following Jia Rui for a long time, so he naturally knows that the medicine taken out from Jia Rui's arms must be a panacea.

So she carefully took the medicine bottle, and then carried the medicine bottle into the delivery room.

As soon as Brother Ying went in, he didn't come out again. After another half an hour, a baby's cry suddenly came from inside.

Following the cry of the baby, a burst of colorful clouds suddenly appeared in the sky, and then countless birds gathered to this side, and then stood on the branches or eaves of the house and began to chirp.

Jia Rui felt very happy when he saw this scene. It seemed that his child was not a mortal, and had a strange vision when he was born.

Xue Baochai, who was standing next to Jia Rui, had a trace of ugliness on his face.

However, Xue Baochai soon covered it up, but there was still a hint of viciousness in his eyes.

The door to the delivery room opened, and Brother Ying ran out happily.

"Congratulations, uncle, Aunt You got a girl."

After hearing this, Jia Rui's face was also beaming with joy. For people from modern times, girls are more considerate than boys.

Now that Second Sister You has given birth to a caring little cotton-padded jacket for him, how can Jia Rui be unhappy?

Xue Baochai, who was standing next to Jia Rui, felt relieved when she heard that Sister You had given birth to a girl.

Fortunately, it was a girl. If this was a boy, plus the vision he had just had when he was born, Jia Rui's attention would not be all on the child, and it would be a threat to his son Jia Xuan.

Fortunately, she is a girl. In this way, Jia Rui will be more pampered and will not pose any threat to his son. Even Xue Baochai will not interfere in any way.

"Hurry up and take the baby out and let me take a look." Jia Rui said excitedly.

Xue Baochai looked at Jia Rui's helpless look and frowned. Although he knew that there was just a girl inside, Xue Baochai still felt a little uncomfortable.

When he gave birth to Jia Xuan, Jia Rui was not like this.

Although he thought so, Xue Baochai said: "The uncle is confused. The baby is fragile when he is just born. If you take it out at this time, what should you do if something goes wrong?"

After Jia Rui heard this, he patted his head and said repeatedly: "I was confused."

So Jia Rui could only wait outside for a while, until everything was almost tidied up inside and Po Wen and the maids had all exited, then Jia Rui took Xue Baochai in.

When I went in, I saw Second Sister You lying on the bed tired and weak, with a package beside her.

Jia Rui walked over in a few steps, sat on the edge of the bed, and looked at the package next to Sister You that contained a small person.

Jia Rui gently stretched out his hand, opened the package a little, and saw a wrinkled baby inside.

Although the baby is still wrinkled and red, it is so cute in Jia Rui's eyes.

Jia Rui gently touched the baby's little face. The baby chirped but did not respond.

A smile appeared on Jia Rui's face again, and the unhappiness of today seemed to have disappeared.

Second Sister You, who was lying on the bed, looked at the smile on Jia Rui's face and knew that he was not angry because she gave birth to a daughter, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Uncle, give the child a name!"

After hearing this, Jia Rui immediately clapped his hands and said, "When Xuan'er was born, the old man took away the right to give her a name. I can't give it up this time."

As he spoke, Jia Rui stood up and walked a few steps back and forth in the room. He suddenly stopped and said, "Just call her "Jia Rui"."

The name "Jia Rui" surprised everyone in the room.

You must know that "Rui" and "Rui" have the same pronunciation, which was a taboo in ancient times.

And Jia Rui can make his daughter's name have the same sound as his, which shows how much he dotes on this daughter.

Sister You, who was lying on the bed, also had a smile on her face. She gently hugged the girl next to her. Looking at her young face, she felt that the pain from childbirth had disappeared.

Xue Baochai, who had been silent all this time, said now: "Aunt You has just given birth, so why not take her mother and sister over to stay with her for a while. Even after the confinement, it can also alleviate the pain of missing relatives."
