Red Mansion: I am Jia Lian

Chapter 108 The only innocent person is not innocent either

Jia Lian didn't know whether there were innocent people in this case, but he knew that in a case like this, there was no need to get involved too deeply. Jia Lian is a time traveler, not a moral gentleman. Just do whatever is best for you.

In fact, Zhang Ting'en also meant the same thing. There was a tacit understanding between the master and the apprentice. When they communicated through the door in Shuntian Mansion, they could understand what the other person meant. Jia Lian said "It's very troublesome", Zhang Ting'en understood immediately "Why don't you get out quickly?" 】. Jia Lian [understands].

In the guest room, under the care of the servants, Li Dong went to bed early after washing himself. He was really exhausted both physically and mentally today. Physical fatigue could be recovered after a night's rest. Mental fatigue caused him to not sleep well at night. During the period Woke up several times.

At dawn, Li Dong woke up again. What happened yesterday was repeated in his mind. Li Dong's sleepiness disappeared and he simply got up and put on his clothes. The servants of the Jia family had a very good service attitude. When they heard the noise, they stood at the door and asked, and after getting permission, they came in to wash themselves.

In contrast, Li Dong felt that the boy next to him was simply a rough guy.

The yard was very large. Li Dong took a few steps to stretch his body and refresh his mind. Unexpectedly, he saw Jia Lian boxing at a glance. The movements are slow and slow, seemingly weak and feeble, but yet they give people a feeling of being light and heavy.

It probably feels like I'm always holding a heavy ball in my hand while still doing various movements.

Persistence in exercising is the most perseverant thing Jia Lian has done since time travel, and the reason is that he is afraid of death. Without antibiotics these days, a cold would kill someone. It’s not that TCM is not good, it’s just that there are very few good TCM doctors and there are many quacks.

Chinese medicine is close to Taoism. From the perspective of studying medicine, it depends too much on talent and understanding.

Jia Lian understood what he meant. It was boring to be an official like Shuntian Mansion.

Before being severely beaten by the same kind, a person's self-confidence will gradually expand. As long as you can achieve something, you will feel that you can do anything. People will swell after being praised by people around them for a long time, just like those traffickers who are obviously out of the blue, but have no self-awareness at all and dare to set up any personality.

"I'm ashamed. I woke up several times last night and my mind was a little confused. Brother Jia seems to have had a good rest and is full of energy."

Man is such a creature. The two-legged god of war stands out from nature, with the word "confidence" engraved in his DNA.

"Zhang Gui greets Young Master Lian!" As soon as the middle-aged man spoke, Jia Lian knew who this was. He was the nephew of Zhang's old housekeeper and a member of Zhang Ting'en's tribe. The old butler Zhang Fu was getting older, so he called his nephew to help and trained him to be his successor.

Therefore, officials like Zhang Ting'en are extremely valuable!

The two of them walked for more than ten minutes, with Jia Lian talking casually and Li Dong listening silently.

After finishing a set of simplified Tai Chi, Jia Lian closed his fists and smiled at Li Dong: "Brother Li got up early."

Li Dong nodded, and the gloom in his heart faded a lot, and finally sighed: "What I saw yesterday was very disappointing."

After breakfast, Li Dong remained silent throughout the whole process, and Jia Lian didn't say much. He said everything he needed to say during the walk.

Jia Lian felt that if a person like Li Dong became an official, he would be incompatible with the current official atmosphere. If he couldn't control himself, he would start fighting with others, just like when Jia Yucun first entered the officialdom. They will be caught and magnified infinitely, or they may be used as a scapegoat and dismissed from office.

If you don’t become a high official, how can you realize your original intention? But in the process of climbing up, can you still maintain your original intention?

"Don't think like this. If those insects are in official positions, it is good to do nothing. If they do something, it will be a disaster for the people. Instead of them being in official positions, why don't people like you and me be in official positions? At least you and I can be officials. It will not bring man-made disasters to the people. If there are more people like you and me, there will be one less insect in the officialdom."

Many things must be experienced personally before they will be remembered, and you will not remember them if you rely on others to teach you.

Jia Lian smiled, took the hot towel from Guixiang and wiped his face and hands. He asked Li Dong to walk slowly for a while and said, "Brother Li, there is no need to be ashamed. Everything happens for a reason. As far as Lin Ping is concerned, if not If you want to break off the engagement, no one will use it as an excuse. As far as the Yang family is concerned, if there is no intention to cling to the powerful, there will be nothing to do next. I am afraid only the person involved can tell the specific reasons that caused the daughter to hang herself. It’s clear.”

Outside Shuntian Mansion, as soon as Jia Lian and Li Dong got off the carriage, Xu Tuiguan appeared. Seeing that he had dark circles under his eyes and could pretend to be a panda, Jia Lian knew that he had not slept all night. Next to Xu Tuiguan was a middle-aged man dressed as a servant, who looked familiar to Jia Lian.

The most important point is that Western medicine makes money! Moreover, the entire industry chain makes money. In the face of huge interests, even if Chinese medicine can become immortals, it will be difficult to compete with Western medicine.

Li Dong was a very disciplined person. When he saw Jia Lian practicing boxing, he was curious, but he just stood aside and watched quietly.

The officialdom was one of the darkest places in the world of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Officials like Zhang Ting'en who wanted to do things were also full of evil intentions. As for whether he has changed his original intention, you can tell by looking at Li Qing. In order to become an official, he completely changed himself.

Li Dong knew very well that due to his background, many things were incomparable to Jia Lian. Jia Lian was willing to tell him this because he really regarded himself as a true friend. Otherwise, there was no need to say this, and he could even have rejected himself yesterday.

All the knowledge of Western medicine can be seen intuitively, although there are many vague areas, and one symptom can have many causes. But from the perspective of studying medicine, Western medicine is indeed more intuitive and the system is clearer.

Jia Lian is really not forming a clique, but how to put it? Corrupt officials work together to form cliques for personal gain. Officials who want to do something serious must naturally stick together, otherwise how can they fight with others?

These words made Li Dong feel relieved, and Jia Lian continued to increase the dose: "Since you become an official, there will be struggles. How to fight is a struggle that requires effort. I will try it next year. I am optimistic that Brother Li will be able to go to high school and become an official in the future. He must first learn to protect himself. Only by protecting himself can he have the capital to continue fighting against the insects."

Zhang Tingen sent Zhang Gui with a very clear intention, reminding Shuntian Mansion that I am watching.

"I'm tired!" Jia Lian didn't need to show too much courtesy to a servant, but he didn't mean any disrespect either.

"It should!" After Zhang Gui finished speaking, he took a step back, indicating that he had brought ears and eyes, but now his mouth was gone.

"Young Master, Lin Ping's case has been closed. The subordinates are waiting for the report. When we go in, the two of us can pick up our classmate Lin Ping." Xu Tuiguan went straight to the point. Jia Lian did not respond immediately. First, he folded his hands and saluted: "You're welcome, Mr. Xu."

Li Dong was imitating others on the sidelines, with a completely learning attitude.

"Enough gossip, last night the plaintiff Yang Feng took the initiative to confess everything. Because Lin Ping shied away many times and refused to get married as soon as possible, Yang Feng was resentful. When his daughter learned that Lin Ping had shied away, she couldn't think about it and hanged herself. Yang Feng I took this opportunity to sue Lin Ping."

Xu Tuiguan directly explained the facts of the case without delaying at all. After hearing this, Li Dong hesitated to speak. Jia Lian asked directly: "Don't say more about the official version. Tell the truth."

Xu Tuiguan looked around and walked to the corner by the wall. He waited for Jia Lian and the others to catch up before he spoke: "Yang Feng was born as a military attache. He was ordered to kill prisoners in the northwest battlefield twenty years ago. Return to the capital. Later, he was implicated by Shangguan and left the capital, relying on his savings to buy some land and become a country squire."

Xu Tuiguan paused for a moment, looking at Jia Lian's intention of not interrupting, and continued: "I asked Wu Zuo that Yang Feng's daughter was two months pregnant. After she was hanged, she lost one body and two lives. After investigation, it was found that there was a powerful man in the capital who liked hunting. I stayed overnight at Yang’s house many times.”

At this point, Xu Tuiguan shut up, as if he was unwilling to continue talking no matter what.

"MD, a bunch of insects!" Jia Lian, who connected the truth, broke through! It's okay to make someone's fiancée pregnant and break off the engagement with money, but why do you want to do this? Then I thought again, that's not right, Lin Ping didn't tell the truth.

After scolding, Jia Lian turned to Li Dong and said, "We won't go in. You have someone go to the inn to bring Lin Ping's mother over, so that mother and son can meet each other and go home together. I really can't bear it, so give me some money." ”

After saying that, Jia Lian took out a fifty-tael silver ingot from his sleeve and gave it to Li Dong: "My share of the money!"

After doing all this, Jia Lian turned around and left, refusing to stay for a moment longer. Jia Lian had long known from Jia Rong what happened in the restaurant on the day when the results of the provincial examination were released. Even if Lin Ping was angry at the rumor that Jia Lian was bound to win, he spoke uprightly in the restaurant, even if he killed Jia Lian, he wouldn't believe it. Combined with the scene when he first met Lin Ping in Shuntian Mansion, his stupid look must be a sign of the huge mental shock after losing sight of life. It can be seen that Lin Ping himself is not clean either.

Li Dong was used to Jia Lian being calm and unhurried, and the series of performances just now opened Li Dong's eyes.

It turns out that Brother Jia is also a temperamental person, and there are things he cannot accept.

The question is, why do I seem to understand it but not fully understand it?

What is the truth? Li Dong was still curious, but not that curious anymore. Jia Lian's class was not in vain.

Li Dong strode to catch up with Jia Lian: "Brother Jia, stay."

Jia Lian stopped and turned around, glanced at the stupidity in Li Dong's eyes that was no longer clear, and whispered: "Don't ask me what the truth is, I'm not interested at all. If you have to ask me the result of my guess, I can give you one, It’s not necessarily right.”

Li Dong immediately clasped his hands and said, "Ask me for advice!"

"If I'm not wrong, Lin Ping went to Yang's house because the two parties agreed to break off the engagement. Lin Ping paid a little bit in exchange for breaking off the engagement. Lin Ping should know a little bit about why he wanted to break off the engagement. But in the end, Lin Ping also Unexpectedly, he was so cruelly manipulated that Yang Feng deserved his death and does not deserve sympathy. The only innocent person in the whole matter was the widowed mother of the Lin family."

"Where is Shuntian Mansion?" Jia Lian was a little surprised that Li Dong's focus was on this, but he still gave a very frank answer: "Simple, take people's money and eliminate disasters with them! It's just that Shuntian Mansion can be hidden. Forget it, I didn’t expect you to pull me in and throw a bunch of punches, causing things to almost get out of control. No matter how it is, Lin Ping will definitely seek revenge in the future if he is alive. Haha, if Lin Ping wins the Jinshi, he will definitely be far away. Region. Just wait and see, I will still step in to cause trouble."

"Why? Is it really for Lin Ping? This is not Brother Jia's style." Li Dong finally said the right thing.

"For no reason, just to hurt others and not benefit myself, for no other reason than to disgust him. No, I also want to help Lin Ping get promoted and let Lin Ping go fight with that person. Dog bites dog, a hairy mouth, watching It's so lively." Jia Lian was already gritting his teeth.

Li Dong was even more confused: "Brother Jia, you can completely stay out of this matter!"

"A bunch of insects, I don't know, let it go. If I know, I can't act in front of others. I'm disgusted by others. I have to be disgusted." Jia Lian was unusually decisive. He had no choice but to be so willful. This is the kind of Jia Lian I am.

Li Dong completed his understanding from another angle: "So, the meaning of righteousness lies in not seeing or hearing, nor wanting to be involved in it, so let them bite each other and learn from it!"

Jia Lian was stunned when he heard this. Where does the justice come from? I just want to be a shit stirrer. Although the original intention of the shit stirrer is passive, but now that I have done it, I must be an excellent shit stirrer with due diligence!

Okay, you can understand it how you like. Jia Lian can explain it, but deep down, he still can't understand it.

Li Dong personally went to the inn to meet the widowed mother of the Lin family. After the meeting, Lin's mother wanted to kowtow to Li Dong. Although Li Dong felt very uncomfortable, he quickly supported the old man and refused to accept the gift. He also explained: "Lin Ping can heal his whole body." The person I want to thank is my classmate Jia Lian. Without his intervention, it would be difficult to reverse the case."

This was said openly, and there was a hint of unnaturalness on Mother Lin's face. Li Dong looked at it carefully and thought to himself, "Jia Lian's guess must be right. Not only Lin Ping knows something, but Mother Lin also knows it." 】

If Jia Lian were present, he would definitely shout "Isn't this bullying an honest person?" 】(Chen Kun is performing!)

Li Dong decided to start well and end well, and personally sent Lin's mother to Shuntian Mansion. After waiting at the door for a while, Lin Ping came out. Xu Tuiguan sent it out personally. Mr. Fu Yin of Shuntian Mansion didn't know where he hid it.

Lin Ping, who saw his mother, rushed forward, knelt down and cried loudly: "Mother, my son is unfilial and deserves death."

The mother and son held each other's hands and cried. Li Dong, the bystander, turned his head away because he was not moved. Instead, he felt that he would not have come if he had known better. The complexity of this world once again opened Li Dong's eyes. No wonder Jia Lian avoided it.

Jia Lian was not having a good time at the moment. Zhang Ting'en went to go on duty, but the mistress called him to make it easier for him to talk.

"I thought you were a shrewd kid, but I didn't expect you were also a fool. You just got involved without knowing it clearly. You talked about being classmates, meaning being in the same year, but others treated you like a fool. And that Li Dong , is also a confused egg."

Jia Lian listened obediently, not daring to refute a word. Only people who really care about you would say this about you.

"By the way, go home quickly. There's something going on over there again."

Jia Lian: "Ah?"
