Red Mansion Beijingwang

Chapter 55 Water-soluble breaks the defense

"Which Xue family? There seems to be no famous Xue family in Beijing?"

Although Shui Rong had some guesses, he still had to confirm, just in case they had the same name!

Du Yuejiao originally planned to send Xue Pan away, but seeing that Shui Rong seemed to be interested in the Xue family, there was something strange in her eyebrows, and she said with a smile: "The Xue family is not from the capital, but from Jinling."

The Xue family from Jinling was most likely correct, but just in case, Shui Rong still confirmed: "But it's the Xue family from Jinling who "has heavy snow in good years, and pearls are like earth and gold is like iron."

The so-called "Jia is not fake, and white jade is the hall gold and horse." refers to the Jia family with two fathers. "Afang Palace is three hundred miles away, and there is no one in Jinling who can live in it." It refers to the story after Baoling Hou Shangshu ordered Shi Gong. , "There is a lack of white jade beds in the East China Sea, and the Dragon King came to invite the King of Jinling." It refers to the fact that after the Du Taiwei took control of the county prince, "there is heavy snow in good years, and pearls are like earth and gold are like iron." It refers to the Xue family of Huangshang.

Although they are far away in Jinling, the names of the four major families in Jinling are well-known far and wide. Even if Shui Rong has not read the original work, he has heard about it.

Du Yuejiao nodded slightly when she heard this and said, "Exactly."

It's not surprising that Shui Rong knew about the Jinling Xue family. After all, she had heard of the Jinling Xue family's name.

When Shui Rong heard this, he suddenly realized that they were Xue Baochai's family. It seemed that the Xue family had gone to Beijing.

According to the original records, it was in the name of sending Xue Baochai to Beijing to be selected.

It's just that the Xue family takes it for granted. Generally speaking, the family background of the Xue family should not be a problem when it comes to selection, but this is not always the case. It should be noted that the selection of candidates is extremely strict, and family background and physical condition must be considered one by one. There is no room for carelessness in review.

Moreover, there is another important reason for the Xue family to go to Beijing, that is, Xue Pan beat someone to death and came to Beijing to avoid disaster. There are flaws in his family background. In addition, Xue Baochai has heat poison. Even without Xue Pan's She couldn't be selected, even if she couldn't pass the first level.

Although Shui Rong is not obsessed with gold hairpins, everyone is curious. Xue Baochai, who "hangs jade belts in the forest and gold hairpins are buried in the snow", is quite interested in Shui Rong.

Speaking of next year's draft, Shui Rong will choose the princess of Beijing County from among them. This is a coincidence. I remember Emperor Yongkang once said that he should choose a few more people. Shui Rong can do some manipulation and take them as his own. If you don't want it delivered to your door, wouldn't you be a fool?

As for the princess of Beijing County, the Xue family can't even think about it. No matter how rich she is, she is just an imperial merchant. Moreover, Xue Baochai's family background and physical condition are lacking. Her condition is much weaker than Keqing's. How can she be the princess of the county? .

Although the four major families in Jinling are all related to each other, and all suffer losses, and all prosper, and all have support and care, the Xue family at this time is different from the past, almost in decline, and no longer as dignified as before.

Moreover, the Beijing Palace was also severely damaged. Even if Shui Rong took Xue Baochai into the palace, Emperor Yongkang would not say much.

If you think about it carefully, Xue Baochai's lineage is the main branch. He lost his father when he was young, leaving his widowed mother and her brother alone. The population is simple. The only trouble is Xue Pan. This is not a worry-free master, but it is not a big problem. The family also plans to settle in the capital. With people around, they won't be beyond reach, so they can just exercise more control. It is completely feasible.

It's just that Xue Baochai was estimated to be thirteen or fourteen years old at this time, too petite, but it didn't matter, just put the good vegetables into the basket first and raise them.

Just as Shui Rong was thinking about it, Du Yuejiao groaned and then ordered: "Lian'er, go and invite Mr. Xue in."

Lian'er was a little surprised when she heard this. She must know that her young lady didn't want to see Mr. Xue. She would always say a few words when he came back. She never thought that her young lady would actually invite him into the house. How strange!

But after all, it was my own lady who gave the order, so I retreated to ask for help.

When Shui Rong saw Du Yuejiao inviting people in, he was a little surprised. He must know that this "Luoyue Residence" did not entertain guests except Shui Rong and Feng Ziying. He never thought that Xue Pan could also invite in!
Thinking of this, Shui Rong was quite curious and asked, "Miss Du, are you familiar with that Xue Pan?"

Du Yuejiao pursed her lips and smiled when she heard this. She held her chin with her jade hand and looked at Shuirong with full eyes. She said in a clear voice: "It's not that we are familiar with each other, but we met Mr. Feng a few times last time. It's hard to refute our feelings. Yes, it’s just that Mr. Xue is a bit troublesome, so I happened to meet him today, so I’ll ask Mr. Young Master to send him away for the slave family.”

After hearing this, Shui Rong understood and wondered why Du Yuejiao knew Xue Pan. It turned out that Feng Ziying had brought her to him. She was thinking of Feng Ziying's affection, so she naturally treated him differently.

This is "a bit annoying". It seems to be caused by Xue Pan's playboy temperament, but it is understandable. After all, Du Yuejiao is a very colorful girl. Even Shuixun will look at her twice, not to mention Xue Pan. A dandy who only knows how to spend money like water and has no knowledge or skills.

Thinking that Du Yuejiao was his subordinate, Shui Rong nodded lightly and agreed.

Du Yuejiao responded when she saw the water melting, and the corners of her small mouth were slightly raised. Two shallow dimples were exposed on her delicate jade face, which was as beautiful as a blooming peach blossom.

Not long after, Lian'er led a man in brocade clothes to walk in. He had an ordinary face and a slightly fat figure. The most eye-catching thing was his big head, which was very conspicuous.

Xue Pan happily entered the elegant room, and when he saw the colorful figures, he couldn't help but feel excited. Just when he was about to say hello, he suddenly saw the man sitting opposite Du Yuejiao, and he couldn't help but frown.

When he took a closer look, he saw that the man's features were delicate and his lips were like peach blossoms in March. Xue Pan's eyes immediately lit up and his body softened.Hiss. Xue Pan let out a long sigh, looked at Du Yuejiao again, and asked: "Miss Du, who is this young master? I don't want to recommend him."

Du Yuejiao did not doubt that he was there, she covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Mr. Xue, this young man is probably a good friend of the slave family!"

Du Yuejiao had already guessed about Shui Rong's identity, but they had been together for a long time and had never heard Shui Rong take the initiative to talk about it. Shui Rong must have not wanted to expose his identity, so Du Yuejiao looked at him and used his friends as a cover.

After saying that, Du Yuejiao glanced at Shui Rong. Seeing that Shui Rong was calm and serene, she didn't refute, and her heart gradually started to ripple. Others were ashamed to be associated with a woman like him, but Shui Rong didn't care. This shows the young man's courage. Very human.

Involuntarily, Du Yuejiao recalled the disgusting look in her eyes, and her eyes became gleaming. People were really different. After all, they were the people she had trusted before.

"Miss Du's best friend shouldn't be a pretty boy, right?"

After hearing this, Xue Pan began to care. In his opinion, "heaven and earth" was the brothel, Du Yuejiao was the madam, and the circle of "friends" was very narrow, and nine out of ten of them were the pretty girls.

Xue Pan, who "understood", felt excited and looked at Shui Rong with strange eyes.

Shui Rong, who was looking at Xue Pan, seemed to notice a chill behind him. He thought it was the cool breeze that came in when Xue Pan opened the curtain, so he didn't pay much attention to it, so he greeted: "Brothers of the Xue family, please sit down!"

Since Shui Rong has Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, he should be polite. Maybe Xue Pan can be regarded as his brother-in-law in the future. If he wants to give him a beating, don't think of attacking Du Yuejiao, a bitch.

Hearing this, Xue Pan stared at Shuirong and sat down softly.

Du Yuejiao wiped the corners of her eyes with her handkerchief, stood up and said politely, "Young Master and Mr. Xue are sitting slowly. Your sleeves are a little dirty. Please go to the inner room to change your clothes first."

Shui Rong didn't say anything when he heard this. Changing clothes at his daughter's house was normal. As for Xue Pan, his thoughts were not on Du Yuejiao for a long time, so he naturally didn't say much.

After Du Yuejiao left, Shui Rong and Xue Pan were the only two people left in the elegant room. Xue Pan moved to sit next to Shui Rong and said enthusiastically: "Don't you know your brother's name?"

Shui Rong frowned when he saw this, but didn't say much. Looking at Xue Pan's silly smile, he really looked like a fool, worthy of the name of "Stupid Overlord". After hesitating, Shui Rong said casually: "My surname is Chuan. "

Water accumulates to form a river. Water is the surname of the country. There is no need to tell Xue Pan, just make it up.

When Xue Pan heard this, he started to worry about it. Since he came to Beijing, his family had told him that Jingzhong was different from Jinling. There were a lot of nobles and nobles, so that he would get into less trouble. The surname Sichuan was rare, and Jingzhong also There is no rich family with the Sichuan surname, which makes Xue Pan completely relieved.

Thinking of this, Xue Pan smiled and said: "Brother Chuan, right? I am Xue Pan, my ancestor is from Ziweishe, and I am now a banker in charge of the government."

Shui Rong didn't take it seriously when he heard this. He also knew the background of the Xue family, but why did Xue Pan say this, to show off in front of him?

The Xue family's background is considered powerful in front of ordinary people, but in front of Shui Rong, it is not worth mentioning, and showing off is nothing more than clown behavior.

Thinking of this, Shui Rong looked slightly joking and said: "The Xue family of Jinling has heard about it."

Xue Pan did not hear the contempt in Shui Rong's words, and thought Shui Rong was shocked by the name of the Xue family, so he patted his chest and said: "Good brother, although my Xue family is originally from Jinling, we also have relatives in the capital. From now on, with your If there is any important matter, leave it to my brother. Just don't be busy. With you as my brother, it will be easy for me to become an official and make a fortune."

Shui Rong smiled dumbly when he heard the words. Xue Da's head was really big-headed. He was a brother and he was an elder brother. Fortunately, he could say it. However, Shui Rong didn't care. It's not a fault for others to be enthusiastic. What's more, Xue Pan didn't say it was anything important. Leave everything to him, and even become an official and make a fortune. If it were an ordinary person, Xue Pan would be a noble man, but he would not be happy.

If you think about it carefully, Xue Pan is still a very righteous man.

Xue Pan chuckled when he saw Shui Rong, and the corners of his lips curved into a beautiful curve. It was sweet and warm, like a breeze blowing by. Involuntarily, Xue Pan became crazy and his old illness relapsed.

Just when Shui Rong was about to hit Xue Pan, he suddenly felt his jaw being grabbed. The incident happened suddenly. Shui Rong didn't react for a moment. When he did, he saw a crazy face.

Shui Rong looked astonished. He remembered that Xue Pan was the first person in Jinling City to practice Xing Shangqi. Could it be...
For a moment, Shui Rong was so disgusted that he couldn't care less about etiquette. He picked up a fist as big as a sandbag and hit that disgusting face.

"I'm an idiot"
