Jia Zhen, Uncle of the Red House

　　Jia Zhen nodded, "I don't worry about your work!" She sat down and asked, "What news is there in Shenjing?"

　　Master Luo said with some uncertainty: "There are several reports of smallpox disease outside the city, all of which are cases. Although there are more than usual, there is no need to pay too much attention."

　　Jia Zhen didn't pay attention to any epidemics. Seeing that Master Luo finished reporting and was still here, Jia Zhen smiled and said, "Do you have anything to say to me, sir?"

　　Master Luo hesitated, but finally couldn't help but say, "Master, do you want to clean up your general's mansion as well?"

　　"What cleanup?" Jia Zhen suddenly thought: "Did you say that San'er was remodeled there? It doesn't matter, it will be over in a month at most."

　　Master Luo said: "It's not this, I mean that you still have a dozen or so female relatives of criminal officials in the General's Mansion. What should I do? Do you have a charter?"

　　Jia Zhen wondered: "I clearly remember that they were dispatched to go out, but didn't they stay?"

　　Master Luo said angrily: "Except for those who were picked up by family members one after another, and those who left voluntarily, the rest are homeless, young ladies and grandma. It's not a problem to keep them like this. it is good!"

　　Jia Zhen frowned and said, "Give them some money and send them away!"

　　Master Luo hesitated for a while, "They stayed in your house for so long, who would believe their innocence?"

　　"Joke!" Jia Zhen was angry when she heard this: "When did I go to harm them? It's just slander!"

　　Master Luo spread out his hand: "In short, your reputation as lustful, sir, has been completely spread. Perhaps, this is why the emperor trusts you. Your ambitions are all used on women. Don't worry!"

　　Jia Zhen looked at him with a half-smile, "Sir, do you know that I deliberately pretended to hide this? I actually wanted to play a big game of chess?"

　　Master Luo laughed and said: "The students next to you don't dare to say that you are very clear about your temperament, and it's a bit too much to describe it as lustful. Lewd but not lewd, romantic but not obscene."

　　"Okay, okay." Jia Zhen waved her hand, "I'll take a look at this when I have time."

　　There are also some trifles the size of sesame seeds, which are skipped one by one.

　　Master Luo took out another letter from the sleeve and handed it to Jia Zhen: "Today, an unsigned letter was delivered to the mansion. The students did not dare to open it, so it was specially delivered."

　　"Muni Academy?" Jia Zhen immediately thought of a person and hurriedly opened it to see.

　　Sure enough it was her!

　　In the letter, removing some unnecessary ambiguous words, talking about various rumors in the palace, there are always no less than [-] or [-] articles, all of which are where the emperor went, what happened to a certain empress, and so on.Jia Zhen looked blank and thought about it for a long time.Turning to the last page, I saw that she had written a few sentences in elegant small script, "From the above analysis, it can be seen that the emperor's illness has not recovered, and Concubine Wu should have changed, but Concubine Xiande is worry-free."

　　What does it mean?

　　Explain her importance?Can you find out the key factors from a lot of messy information to form a clue, and then analyze and deduce according to the facts, so as to seek profit and avoid disaster?

　　Jia Zhen took this letter and couldn't calm down for a long time.

　　Today, the news in the palace will be taken out of the palace with the water truck that delivers water every day, and someone will answer it in the middle, and then send it into the hands of Muni Academy. shop, and then send it back to Jia Zhen of Ningfu.After such a circle, you can usually know what happened yesterday, and only in an emergency, you can know what happened in the palace that day.

　　This is already very good!

　　The only downside is that the status of the chess pieces in the palace is too low, and it takes some thought and planning.

　　It's just that this information channel will be in her hands in the future, and she must use some means to prevent information from leaking and being controlled by others.

　　Thinking of this, Jia Zhen burned the letterhead to ashes.

　　"In the future, such letters will be sent directly to my study, sir, you don't need to pay attention."

　　"Understood." Master Luo lowered his head without even looking at it, knowing the way to protect himself.

　　After a while, Timur reported from outside the door: "Master, the Jingzhao House has sent Fu Shi to see you."

　　"Fu Shi?" This person has no contact with him, "Just ask Huang An to send him away!"

　　But Timur said again: "Then Fu Shi said he had something important to see."

　　Jia Zhen sneered, "Everyone says what's important, an official the size of a pinhead, what else is more important?" He pushed open the door and walked out to Ning'an Hall.

　　In the Ning'an Hall, Jia Zhen took the high seat.

　　Then Fu Shi immediately knelt down in the hall and kowtowed to Jia Zhen, "Xiaguan Jingzhao Mansion has sentenced Fu Shi to pay respects to Lord Guogong."

　　Jia Zhen raised her eyes to see that he was kneeling properly, and she didn't stand up. She held up her hands and smiled, "Master Fu doesn't need to make such a big gift, just get up and sit down and talk!"

　　"Mr. Xie Guogong!" Fu Shi stood up, carefully sat down against the edge of the chair, and cupped his hands again, saying, "I'm taking the liberty of coming from an official position, please forgive me, Lord Guogong!"

　　Jia Zhen looked at him nervously and nervously, just as he was when he gave gifts to the leader back then.

　　Just, what gift are you giving empty-handed?

　　"Master Fu is here, you must have some advice?" He didn't bother to beat around the bush with him. It's better for everyone to be direct.

　　Fu Shi smiled awkwardly, still suffixing the words, "Xiaguan... Actually, it's nothing important."

　　Jia Zhen's face suddenly collapsed, co-authoring is deliberately amusing the public?He took a deep breath, maintaining a generous self-restraint, "That's the case," his hand had already touched the lid of the tea cup, "Master Fu please..."

　　Seeing that Jia Zhen was about to serve tea to the guests, Fu Shi quickly stood up and said, "My lord, Xiaguan will greet you as soon as you come, Xiaguan is the disciple of the second master of Rongfu, and that is your disciple. , I can't say that I have to run under the door. If there is a trivial matter of running errands, even let the officer do it. Second, I came to Jingzhao Mansion to receive a case.

　　"The case of the eldest man over there?" Jia Zhen asked curiously, "What is the case? Forcibly robbing people's daughters as concubines, or robbing people's property? You should be careful, you must not bend the law for personal gain. Those who deserve to be caught, those who should be sentenced!"

　　When Fu auditioned it, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes. Is this telling the truth or telling the truth?He pretended to be calm and said with a smile: "If you go back to your grandfather, it's just something that doesn't matter, so it's clear."

　　Jia Zhen gave a "hmm" and looked at Fu Shi sideways, what the hell is this person doing?

　　"Daddy!"

　　"Daddy!"

　　With two crisp calls, two girls with pink makeup and jade Zhuo ran out.

　　The nanny behind them couldn't stop it.

　　Jia Zhen saw clearly that it turned out to be sisters Wan'er and Wei'er.As soon as they came up, they climbed into Jia Zhen's arms, one grabbed his beard and the other grabbed his shirt.

　　Jia Zhen had no choice but to hug them, fearing that they would fall off, she glanced back at the two wet nurses, and then smiled: "Why are you here? Daddy is meeting guests now, go back with the wet nurse first, and Daddy will look for it after a while. How are you?"

　　Wan'er said, "Dad, as long as you promise us one thing, we'll leave without disturbing you. Is that Sister Wei'er?"

　　Weil just nodded.

　　Jia Zhen couldn't help them, so she asked, "Okay, what do you want?"

　　Wan'er smiled sweetly: "Dad, why can all boys read and write? We want too!"

　　Wei Er also echoed: "Yes, we want too!"

　　Jia Zhen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Daddy thought it was what, Wan'er, you can't find your mother?"

　　Wan'er pursed her lips, "My mother is not free at all!"

　　Jia Zhen said again: "Then you can also find Aunt Xiangling!"

　　Wan'er also shook her head, "Aunt Xiangling has gone to the West House to talk to the aunts."

　　"Then..." Jia Zhen smiled and said, "Daddy tomorrow, will you find a gentleman to teach you?"

　　"Yeah! Dad is the best!" The two sisters achieved their goal, and just got off Jia Zhen. Seeing that there were still people in the hall, they suddenly turned into famous ladies, and were led back by the nurse.

　　Who taught this?There is no system!

　　Jia Zhen said to Fu Shi, "The little girl was making a mess just now, please don't mind Mr. Fu!"

　　Then Fu Shi hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "The two young ladies are naive and eager to learn. It's too late for the lower officials to envy them! I just heard from Mrs. Guo Gong that you want to invite gentlemen for the young ladies?"

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "That's what I mean! You don't need to be knowledgeable about Confucianism. You have read a few books and you can teach children. They don't go to school. They can teach whatever they want."

　　Fu Shi hurriedly said: "Since this is the case, there is a good candidate for the lower official. I don't know what the king of the country thinks?"

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "Who are you talking about?"

　　Fu Shi paused for a while, then smiled: "This person is Shemei. She has been very intelligent since she was a child. She has read most of the classics, poetry, calligraphy and painting. She is also beautiful and beautiful, and she is the most knowledgeable..." The benefits of girls are exhausted.

　　Jia Zhen had listened to it as if she was introducing Mr. Teacher, but then how could she seem to recommend her sister to the mansion?

　　Just now, Jia Zhen remembered, does this Fu Shi have an unmarried younger sister in her twenties called Fu Qiufang?

　　So he asked casually, "Is your sister's name Fu Qiufang?"

　　Then Fu Shi's spirit was shocked. It turned out that his sister's reputation had long been in the eyes of Lord Guogong, otherwise how would he know her sister's boudoir name?

　　Heaven and earth conscience, how can Jia Zhen ask for the names of other girls' names?Wasn't this written by Cao Xueqin?

　　Only listening to Fu Shi smiled and said: "My sister made a vow in the early years, she would rather marry a hero in the world when she was young, otherwise she would rather not marry for a lifetime. Just because I heard the deeds of the Duke of the country, I know that the great man has both humanities and martial arts, and is full of heroism. Then I secretly thought about it, and asked me to convey a piece of lovesickness to the adults."

　　Saying that, he took out a roll of Juanpa from his arms and handed it to Jia Zhen.

　　Jia Zhen took it over suspiciously and opened it, a delicate small print, a small poem, and a strong sense of resentment and lovesickness came from the surface.

　　Jia Zhen praised: "Sure enough, it is quite literary. It's a pity to be a gentleman!"

　　Fu Shi's heart was beating wildly, and he said quickly, "If Lord Guogong doesn't dislike Shemei's vulgar and vulgar appearance, Shemei is willing to enter the palace as a slave and a maid, in preparation for sweeping."

　　Jia Zhen has read a lot of this kind of thing in the book, but she didn't expect to encounter it herself today.

　　"How old is your sister Fang?"

　　Fu Shi said in a trembling voice, "Twenty this year...there are three." Everyone in Shenjing knew that the Duke of Guo was such a good little girl.His sister is already in the age of a letter, and in case... he is worried, for fear that his sister won't be able to send it out this time, it's not a problem to keep it at home and no one cares about it!

　　Jia Zhen is also entangled in her heart at this moment, should I accept it, or should I accept it, or should I accept it?

　　"Pity!"

　　Does Fu Shi know something is wrong, or is it because he is too old?He hurriedly smiled and said, "My lord, my sister doesn't care about her status. If you can watch Gu Yi or two with blue eyes, or stay outside, it's okay."

　　Even Jia Zhen's face had a fever when he said this, "Are you two brothers and sisters?"

　　Fu Shi smiled and replied: "It's really a compatriot. If the adults agree, the lower official will send my sister over tonight." Only when the women in the brothel are combing their clothes will they take a sedan to get home at night.Is this Fu Shi comparing his sister to advocating excellence or something?

　　It's a hard life to stand on this brother.

　　Jia Zhen was still pondering.

　　Seeing that Jia Zhen had no objection, Fu Shi handed over and quietly retreated.I thought that what happened today, even if the bundle was tied, the girl would be tied into the Ningguo Mansion.

　　Just when he walked out of Ning'an Hall and was about to go down the steps, Jia Zhen stopped him.

　　His legs were also weak, for fear that Jia Zhen would go back on it. "Sir? Don't worry, the subordinate will do it properly."

　　Jia Zhen stroked her beard and finally made up her mind, didn't she live up to her wishes if she didn't want it? "That being the case, go back and talk to your sister. If she wants, I'll hire her to be the west seat of my Ning Mansion. It's easy to repair it, and I have a house in Wicker Lane, which can be lived in if you clean it up. Every one or two days, my own sedan chair will be brought into the house to teach my daughters how to read and write, and that's two things. What do you think?"

　　What else could it be?

　　Fu Shi was already overjoyed, as long as he could be next to this man's body, with the appearance of his own sister, would he be able to let him go?Look at it, maybe soon, my sister will be the aunt of Ning Guofu!Then if you haven't risen to the top, the chicken and the dog will rise to the sky?

　　The long-cherished wish for many years was finally fulfilled, and Fu Shi hurried home to tell his sister the great news.

　　At the same time, a large sedan chair was parked outside the gate of the Rong Mansion, and a lady in her forties walked out from inside. She was covered in splendid gold and jade. But every move has everyone's style.

　　She taught people to go and report.
