The Red Chamber: Lianyufengchai

Jia Lian hurriedly echoed: "It's time for you to discuss the business. Let's go out first!"

Immediately. After a few steps, the door will be opened. Unexpectedly, that Niu Jizong will catch up in a few steps and drag Jia Lian: "When you come to me, you still want to escape and tell you, our brothers, before you come, It has already been agreed, and we will all listen to your arrangement."

Jia Lian smiled and said: "Don't make trouble, Uncle Niu Shi, I'm not familiar with you! Even I don't work in Beijing."

Liu Fang also came over, "As long as you are willing, we will jointly send a letter to the emperor, asking you to serve as the Jingying Jiedu."

Jia Lian suddenly smiled bitterly, "My uncles, you are trying to harm me, be careful I turn my face!"

Niu Jizong said with a smile: "If you don't want us to play, then talk about your method, what should we do?"

Jia Lian shook his head, "I said, uncles, you are wrestling with the emperor at this juncture, don't you feel timid?"

Liu Fang and the others looked at each other in dismay. Only Niu Jizong urged: "Hurry up and say something serious!"

Jia Lian said: "What I said is serious!"

Niu Jizong was unmoved, "I didn't know you had an idea!"

Jia Lian shook his head firmly, "The emperor is the most holy, and we will firmly support the emperor, only the emperor's order is to follow!"

Niu Jizong said with a smile: "We must be like this, we don't dare to go beyond. Say it!"

Jia Lian looked at Niu Jizong deeply, "Do you dare to rebel?"

Niu Jizong sneered, "If anyone rebels, Lao Tzu and your uncles will be the first to cut him off!"

Jia Lian spread his hands and said: "Then the emperor wants to rectify the capital, we should actively cooperate, long pain is not as short as short pain, we will clean up those incompetent, greedy and contemptible. At the same time, we should promote the capable Paoze. Subordinate, only in this way can you impress the emperor and trust us again."

Only then did Niu Jizong let him go with satisfaction, "Brothers, what do you think?"

Hou Xiaokang smiled and said: "It's the same as what we mean. It's just that the statement is more moral, and it really is a Jinshi who has passed the third tail."

The word "three tails" has become Jia Lian's dark history. Seeing Jia Lian Shi Shiran walking out, Niu Jizong said, "If you want to stand on a dry bank without getting your shoes wet, how can it be so cheap?"

He and Liu Fang both laughed. Then Ma Shang was still worried: "Let's do it this way, what should we do if Jia Lian really turns his face and sees death?"

Niu Jizong said with a smile: "That's enough. He's a smart man. Since King Beijing was defeated, we people actually take him as the leader. It's just that he knows how to keep a low profile and bide his time, so we'll give him a push."

Everyone nodded. At this time, Niu Jizong said to Shi Guangzhu, "Brother Shi, has your title been down yet?"

That Shi Guangzhu just shook his head and sighed.

Chapter [*] Jia Lian only said two high-sounding remarks at that point, nothing else. How come Niu Jizong and the others all seem like Jia Lian said something incredible. In fact, they translated Jia Lian's words into In the vernacular, it is nothing more than that you have to fight with the emperor now, it is absolutely impossible, you must pay attention to strategy. You must make up your mind, take the opportunity to pick out the incompetent, show your favor to the emperor, and at the same time, vigorously promote yourself The capable subordinates of the lord turn passive into active. This is called leveraging strength to kill birds with one stone. Not only did it resolve the crisis and win the emperor's favor, but it also actually strengthened the control of the Beijing camp and improved the combat power of the Beijing camp. Then, It is the routine operation of the nobles, and they do not need to be mentioned by Jia. , even if it was put on the air, and a few people insisted on being loyal, they could not resist the wind blowing from all sides, and gradually stood aside. The emperor knew this, but he was not in a hurry. Now, there is another siege incident. With his current weak body, it is still unknown whether he can survive. It is better to be slower, but to be more stable. So, Jia Lian led Jia Rong for a walk in Niufu, I have seen what I should have seen. Now the old man Niu Jizong, who is over [*] years old, really has a young concubine. On the days when Jia Lian came back from Niufu, the nobles in Shenjing seemed to be more and more friendly to Jia Lian, giving gifts and inviting appointments from time to time. The position of Jia Lianxungui's leader can be regarded as recognized. Because he has no competitors. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the king of Beijing is yellow, and the king of Zhongshun rushes to retreat. Although there are still several princes of the county, they are worse than Jia Lian. Many. Jia Lian simply complained about illness, and stayed in Fengyi Garden with all his heart, and compiled "Fengyuan Elegant Collection". He easily refused to see guests go out. Today, Jia Rong came again from the east. The dog was about to be released. Jia Rong could only stand outside the second door, shouting loudly, "Uncle, someone from the palace, the old lady told you to go back quickly!"

"Palace"

Jia Lian asked: "Is it sent by the emperor, or sent by the empress?"

Jia Rong smiled and said, "It was sent by the mother."

Jia Lian dared to go home suspiciously. In the Rongqing Hall, there was only a steward eunuch. When Jia Lian came in, the eunuch hurriedly stood up and bowed, "This servant has seen the grandfather of the country."

Jia Lian looked at Miansheng and asked with a smile, "I dare to ask my father-in-law, what's your name?"

The eunuch hurriedly replied, "I dare not ask the lord of the country. This slave is the steward of Fengzao Palace's virtuous concubine Niangniangluan. The cheap surname is Chen."

"It turned out to be Eunuch Chen!"

Jia Lian handed over. Eunuch Chen stepped aside and said to Jia Lian: "Guo Gong, I sent my servants here today for a trivial matter."

Saying that, she took out a letter from her arms and gave it to Jia Lian with both hands. Jia Lian took it with one hand. The old lady sitting above and Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Lian. The old lady also asked, "Brother Lian. Son, let me see what is written!"

Jia Lian paused for a while, but looked at Eunuch Chen. Eunuch Chen said: "Old lady, the empress has explained it, I can only teach Grandpa Guo to read it, not a third person."

Jia Lian smiled and said, "Big sister is still so cautious."

He opened the letter in front of everyone's eyes. It was full of three pages of beautiful handwriting, and only said one thing. Concubine Xiande went to the old lady's palace to say hello today. , made the emperor unhappy, and her old man was not easy to inquire about. So the concubine Xiande took the initiative to ask Ying and promised the old concubine. It was like a diary, the cause and effect, the narrative process, concise and clear at a glance. Jia Lian was not allowed to do it at all. What. The old concubine didn't have it, and neither did the virtuous concubine. But Jia Lian clearly felt that the old concubine meant that she had to find a way to protect the Zhen family! When the concubine Xiande relayed the old concubine's words, it was nothing more than making the old concubine unhappy. , she will not be happy, her seat will be unstable, and the Jia family will be unlucky because of this. Jia Lian, you can do it! Jia Lian has read the short three-page paper dozens of times, but his brows are still furrowed. The wife urged anxiously by the side: "What the hell is going on, tell me quickly!"

Seeing Jia Lian's appearance, Mrs. Wang was also worried, and asked, "Brother Lian, is there something wrong with the empress?"

Jia Lian just shook his head and didn't answer. Sister Feng on the side hurriedly smiled and comforted: "Old lady, madam, the empress must be fine, otherwise you wouldn't say no to the second master Lian."

After a while, Jia Liancai said to Eunuch Chen: "My lady really gave me a problem! Let me ask you, is there anything else your lady has explained?"

Eunuch Chen cupped his hands and said, "My lady said, everything is according to the meaning of the grandfather of the country, and it will be handled as appropriate."

It's okay to guarantee it as appropriate, but if there is a reason for it, Jia Lian smiled and said, "If you go back and report to the mother, just say that I already know."

Seeing that Jia Lian didn't mention anything to them, the old lady thought it was an important matter, and it was not easy to inquire about it, but her old man was very dissatisfied with Jia Lian's attitude. Do it properly, and tell your maiden not to worry about it."

Mrs. Wang also said: "Exactly, Eunuch Chen, if the empress needs anything, just send a message, and we will send it to the palace immediately."

Eunuch Chen smiled at Madam Wang, "Mrs. Xie, the Empress has everything in the palace."

Mrs. Wang loves her daughter very much, for fear that Yuanchun will be wronged in the palace. I feel sorry for the parents in the world. I just think badly. It's a joke. Then Eunuch Chen bowed to Jia Lianzuo and said: "The slave must return the meaning of the grandfather to the empress. ."

Jia Lian nodded with a smile, and then called Yuanyang: "Bring the lamp here!"

Yuanyang didn't know why, so he hurriedly lit the lamp and brought it over. In front of Eunuch Chen, Jia Lian burned the letter to ashes, "You can't keep yesterday's day, but today's day is so troublesome. You can only save a hundred days if you endure it for a while. worry."

Eunuch Chen's eyes lit up, he meditated a few words, and then said: "The words of the grandfather, the slaves will pass them on to the empress."

"Go!"

Jia Lian just sent Eunuch Chen away. Eunuch Chen didn't hesitate, turned around and left. When they were far away, the old lady couldn't hold back and asked, "Brother Lian, what is the most important thing? Say what you can!"

Jia Lian shook his head and said, "Old lady, it's a matter of confidentiality, so I can't reveal a word."

The old lady could only keep her anxiety in her heart, "Then you can always tell me, is it related to the empress?"

Madam Wang hurriedly stood up and walked up to Jia Lian, "Is there any danger to the lady?"

Her face changed, and she panicked. The old lady was used to the situation, and the palace was full of unspeakable secrets. If there is any danger to the empress, what should I do? "Brother Lian, we must protect the empress at all costs!"

Jia Lian smiled and said, "Where did it get to that point?"

Chapter [*] What I play is that the heartbeat is right. The tree wants to be quiet and the wind is not stopping. Originally, Jia Lian was playing with the sisters Chai Dai in the garden, and he was indescribable with his beautiful wife and concubine. The Zhen family took him into the ditch, so that he could watch a good show on the shore. But he counted the beginning, he didn't expect the process, and he didn't know the end. He was really making trouble for himself! If the Zhen family died, how could it be guaranteed? What should I do with the old concubine? It is said that the old concubine has always been good to Yuanchun, and Yuanchun is a very filial child. If the emperor is allowed to take care of the Zhen family, can the old concubine encourage the emperor to abolish Yuanchun? The emperor didn't even want to see the emperor. What's he afraid of? If the emperor wanted to appease the old concubine, even if he knew that Yuanchun was being angered, he would be abolished. It reflects the perfection of Lingli. Is there any way to copy the Zhen family and make Jia Lian scratch her hair without saying anything. The old lady and Mrs. Wang saw that Jia Lian couldn't make any sense, so they had to invite Jia Zheng talked to him. Jia Zheng listened to what the old lady sent, and thought that Yuan Chun was at a critical juncture, so he hurried in and asked Jia Lian: "Lian'er, what's the matter? "

Jia Lian couldn't help laughing and said, "Where did my uncle get the news, the mother is well!"

Jia Zheng looked at him suspiciously, and then looked at the old lady. Jia Lian explained: "It's just that the mother asked the little eunuch in front of her to send back a letter from home. It doesn't matter."

Jia Zheng nodded gratified, "Lian'er, you have to take your mother's affairs to heart in the future. Don't be careless."

Jia Lian smiled and said, "Nephew knows."

The old lady and Mrs. Wang were so nervous that they just finished talking in three or two sentences. Mrs. Wang was too anxious to speak. When it was time to speak, Jia Lian was already far away. Mrs. Wang couldn't help complaining: "It's okay to ask, sir. what!"

Jia Zheng said displeasedly, "Isn't Brother Lian more knowledgeable than you and me? Don't worry about this matter!"

After he finished speaking, he went. Besides, in the warm pavilion of Daming Palace, the emperor insisted on reviewing the memorial. His face was very bad, and even his hands trembled from time to time. Dai Quan stood guard outside the door in fear. Was killed by the emperor. "Come on!"

The emperor sat upright, as if he didn't exist just now. Dai Quan immediately lowered his head and went in: "Your Majesty, the servant is here."

The emperor said angrily: "Go to the Rongguo Mansion and call Jia Lian. You have been enjoying yourself all day, and you should do something for him."

Dai Quan didn't dare to remind the emperor that he had already declared Jia Lian into the Daming Palace just now. Jia Lian was counting the dragon's claws against the pillar of the palace. Dai Quan walked over quietly and said, "What about the emperor's announcement! It's just that there are still some points left. After the approval, it will take a while for our family to bring the father-in-law to face the Holy Spirit."

Jia Lian is also boring, why didn't you eat when you talked about it casually?"

"My lord!"

Dai Quan was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and almost asked, "Don't ask anything, I won't say anything. Otherwise, we will have to be together on the road."

Jia Lian glanced at him, and then asked softly, "The emperor is very angry now, should I ask for sickness?"

Dai Quan stayed away from him. Cherish life and stay away from Jia Lian. When Jia Lian saw his reaction, he was sure of one thing. I don't know how long it took. Jia Lian felt that he could go back and forth from Rongguo Mansion. Dai Quan led him into the warm pavilion just now. After kneeling and worshipping Ruyi, Jia Lian stood with his hands down. The emperor's face was ruddy and his voice was like Hong Zhong. "If I don't call you, you don't plan to come here in your life, do you?"

Jia Lian smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I still think about being able to face the Holy Spirit in Jiying Hall every day!"

The emperor laughed and scolded: "You treat this palace as a restaurant. You can eat and drink every day."

Jiying Hall is the place where the big inside gives banquets. Jia Lian looked at the emperor seriously, "Or, ask the emperor to borrow two royal chefs for his ministers."

Looking at the excitement, he was actually empty inside. He stretched out another finger, "It's okay to have only one!"

The emperor was displeased, "Not one!"

Immediately, he coughed lightly, and lowered his head to read the memorial, "I don't have time to chat with you. I'll go back to pack my things in a while and go to Jinling to stay behind."

Jia Lian exclaimed: "Your Majesty, are you going to send a minister?"

The emperor angrily knocked on the imperial case, "You bastard, Jinling stays behind, but he is a second-rank official in the frontier of the frontier, is he not worthy of your Duke Rongguo?"

Jia Lian shook his head, "Your Majesty, the subject is young, and the place in Jinling is very beautiful. I'm afraid I can't handle it, and I won't be able to come back in two years. You are considerate and considerate of the fact that there are still beautiful wives and concubines in the family."

The emperor said: "I thought you were going to play in Jinling, but you have to do something for me! Do you know that?"

Jia Lian understood, "It's natural to do things for the emperor, but, the emperor, the Zhen family still owes our family money over the years, can you allow the ministers to come back together or send them into the treasury!"

The emperor glanced at him coldly. Jia Lian immediately said: "The interest is not needed. And their family's property, can you let the ministers?"

"enough!"

Immediately, there was no sound in the warm pavilion. The emperor shouted: "Are you bargaining with me?"

Jia Lian became: righteous and awe-inspiring, and replied: "The minister must act according to the law! Never bend the law for personal gain! If the minister is in Jinling, the emperor can have no worries."

"You lazy bum!"

After a while, the emperor said quietly: "I still send someone else! You go, I don't worry."

Jia Lian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, the emperor picked up another book and said: "Since you don't go to Jinling, then you can go to the Ministry of War and give it to the governor of Jingying Rongzheng. Others can't believe it."

For a while, Jia Lian only felt the thunder rolling in. "Your Majesty, it is not suitable for me to go to a place without women."

The emperor stood up in a rush, and threw the folding in his hand as a knife and axe, "Jia Lian, believe it or not, I will cut you now"

With a ferocious expression, Jia Lian really believed that the emperor definitely wanted to kill him. Jia Lian took a step forward and said, "Your anger, you don't know that this minister is just a playboy with no ambition, and he will always be chaotic. The knife cuts through the mess, and things that are too complicated can't be done."

The emperor smiled lightly and said, "You are the only generals in the court who have experienced the battles, come from a famous family, and are also civil servants. With you, Admiral Jingying, whoever dares to disobey orders will be able to sit back and relax."

Jia Lian's heart was raised in his throat, "I have a request!"

The emperor said: "Speak!"

Jia Lian whispered: "Can the prince be the governor, the minister is willing to be the deputy"

The emperor straightened his waist a little, "Prince is young, how can he control the army?"

Jia Lian said with a smile: "Aspiration is not old age"
