The Red Chamber: Lianyufengchai

The light and fluttering sentence is actually a bloody and cold reality behind it. Yang Jihe continued to destroy more than 1 secret strongholds, hunted down and killed hundreds of people, and seized more than a few million taels of gold and silver. Jia Lian himself even took tens of millions of taels The above. Otherwise, how could the emperor be exempted from the land tax in the south of the Yangtze River? In addition, Jia Lian vigorously supported himself and small and medium-sized businessmen, quickly filled the vacancy of the Zhen family's collapse, and made the originally turbulent Jiangnan more prosperous. It is said that Jia Lian removed a tumor in the south of the Yangtze River, and he built a shrine for Jia Lian. Little did he know that Jia Lian took this opportunity to wantonly merge, collude, and integrate his own forces into one, which is even bigger than the Zhen family. , and more secretive. These will not be told to them. The old lady sighed: "After all, the Zhen family is the family of the emperor's wet nurse. Even if you can't save it, you should persuade the emperor."

Jia Lian smiled and said: "Old lady, if you follow your method, I'm afraid that it's us who are raiding the house and being sold. We are the one who sweeps the snow in front of our own door, and who cares about the frost on other people's tiles, the crime committed by the Zhen family is appalling. , If we keep colluding with them, we will be implicated sooner or later. So this time, the grandson will be destroyed by thunder. Fortunately, the emperor Shengming has worked hard with his grandson to enrich the treasury, and will not pursue the crime of Zhen Yingjia's escape. It's worth it."

Chapter [*] After all, the old lady did not speak. Jia Lian added: "The old lady of the Zhen family is always honored and enjoys all the glory. Once it is checked, the whole family will not be protected. They tried their best to save their dignity, so they robbed them all at the time. It is now determined that all the crimes were committed by Zhen Yingjia alone, so they redeemed the female family members and set up a small courtyard, and there were also several old servants. , Even in poverty, I can get by. But Zhen Baoyu was implicated and sentenced to exile, and I can't do anything about it. Since then, the Zhen family has disappeared, and the good house has become a ruin. It's a sigh!"

Jia Zheng was also amazed, "Where did Zhen Yingjia escape?"

Jia Lian shook his head: "It's obvious that he has been planning for a long time, and it is estimated that he is hiding in a corner. It's just that I have cleaned up all his secrets. If he wants to make a comeback, he will undoubtedly be a fool. Uncle can rest assured."

Madam Wang hurriedly asked: "In the old days there were tens of thousands of taels from the Zhen family, but now they have been copied, but remember to take them back."

Jia Lian smiled and said: "We originally had [*] taels there. Last year, we spent [*] taels for [*] small plays, and the remaining [*] taels have been reported to the Ministry of Households. As long as it is confirmed, it will naturally be returned to us. "

Mrs. Xing nodded, "Brother Lian's work is safe. I heard from outside that there is always some income from raiding a house, and it is not registered."

In the words, he seemed to be asking how much benefit Jia Lian got. Jia Lian shook his head: "I don't know about others. I always follow the idea, I should get it, and a tael of silver is not a lot, but I shouldn't get it, even a penny. Don't take it. That's why the emperor trusts me."

In a word, I didn't take a tael of silver. I just hid several million Jia Zhengnianxu and praised: "This is the strength of my family, the long-term way. Brother Lian's argument is: right!"

The old lady no longer asked about the Zhen family, but sighed: "Brother Lian, your uncles and nephews also need to be careful, Yin Jian is not far away, don't affect the family."

Jia Lian got up to leave without saying much. Jia Zheng couldn't help but persuade: "What the old lady taught me is, but Brother Lian has always been loyal to the state affairs, and now he has worked tirelessly to travel thousands of miles, and he has done enough."

The old lady said displeased: "I don't want the Zhen family's affairs to repeat itself in the Jia family, but it's not enough to say a few words, right?"

Jia Zheng still wanted to persuade him, and Madam Wang teased him secretly, "The old lady is also for the good of our house. Although Brother Lian is a prince, but he is young and vigorous, it is inevitable that he is not thoughtful and reckless. His uncle, it's time to raise points and return to the right path. That's what the old lady just said."

The old lady's expression turned slightly, "Where did I say he shouldn't, just pretend I didn't say it. I'm old, I shouldn't talk too much to make people disgusted!"

Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "Who dares to have such a meaning, even if Brother Lian will never, the old lady can rest assured!"

At this time, Sister Feng came in from outside, "Old lady, it will be Aunt Wang's birthday in a few days. She sent someone to invite the old lady and the lady over to play!"

The old lady was not at ease, so she said she couldn't go. Madam Wang saw that Jia's mother was not at ease, so she did not go. Besides, Jia Lian came out of the old lady's room and sneered: "After all, the old lady is only a housewife with limited knowledge. .If this family is still managed according to her previous method, if it is not another Zhen family, maybe it is not as decisive as the old lady of the Zhen family, who is willing to show her face."

If it weren't for Jia Lian's protection, there would be two or three Zhen's concubines at this time. Jia Lian was never a good person. Thinking of this, Jia Lian felt a lot better. He walked out of the backyard with his hands behind his back, passed through the hall, and returned to his own yard. Not two steps away, there is a tall figure under the shade of a tree, with a long face, wearing a silver-red jacket, a green satin vest, and a thin fold of white silk: the girl in the skirt is wiping her tears. Jia Lian approached, "This is not an attack. Why do people cry?"

When I turned around and saw that it was Jia Lian, I hurriedly saluted, and I was chasing a bee just now and accidentally lost my eyes."

Jia Lian smiled and said, "There are flowers here!"

Xiren immediately blushed. Jia Lian said with concern: "What grievance do you have that deserves you to cry secretly? Did Baoyu make you angry again? Just tell me, and I'll teach you a lesson. Or tell your second grandmother."

"no no!"

Xiren hurriedly denied: "Second Master has always been considerate to the servants, how can you make the slaves angry, but the slaves are not good enough!"

Jia Lian frowned, "You are the girl in Baoyu's room, I shouldn't have asked, but since I happened to meet, I have to find out. Baoyu beat you"

He shook his head, "Never."

"Baoyu scolded you"

"No."

"Baoyu ignores you"

Xiren just lowered his head. Ignoring Xiren is simply disgusting. Xiren lived in his room like a year, it would be better to let the family redeem him at the beginning! Jia Lian looked at Xiren soft and pretty, although his appearance was slightly smaller than Qingwen Second-class, but in the room, it can be regarded as first-class Er followed Sister Feng, Man Er Jin Chuan waited more than enough to wait on him, but he was not very thoughtful. At the beginning, he also asked a lot, otherwise she would not have gotten Baoyu's dislike and hated Wu Jiwu. So he said to Xiren: "If that's the case, don't pay attention to Baoyu, just go to my yard!"

He shook his head in panic, "Second Master, it won't work, the slave was pointed out to Second Master Bao by the old lady to serve him."

Jia Lian said arrogantly: "I'll give you half a day to think about it. If you figure it out, you can find the second grandmother yourself, say what I mean, and send you to my yard. That's it!"

"Second Master"

Xiren's heart thumped violently, only to hear Jia Lian say again: "Xiren, it's really a pity that you cast this pearl in the dark!"

He stretched out his hand and patted her on the shoulder. She shuddered and didn't know what she was thinking. She didn't move for a long time until Jia Lian was far away, and then she went back with a lot of thought. Not too far, she happened to meet Sister Feng coming over at the corner in front of her, behind her. He also followed Ping'er and Jin Chuan'er. Xiren came forward, and every time he took a step closer, he didn't dare to look at Sister Feng. When he got to the front, his head was already lowered to his heart. "Second grandmother"

After only a few words, her face was red and her ears were red, and her voice was like a mosquito. Sister Feng smiled and said: "Xiren, you have something to do with me, is it that Baoyu bullied you again? It's easy to do. When he comes back, I'll tell you about him. It's just not a problem after all. , otherwise you'd better go back to the old lady's room"

Xiren just lowered his head and was speechless. Sister Feng was even more curious, and urged: "You are usually a straightforward and straightforward person, why are you down now: if you are squeamish, say something, I still have something to do!"

Ping'er and Jin Chuan'er also persuaded, "If you have anything to say to the second grandma, she will call the shots for you."

Xiren couldn't help being shy, "Just now, the second master asked the slave to tell the second grandma that he would send me to serve him."

Sister Feng looked at her and said with a sneer: "Oh, I said earlier that the second master had a crush on you, but after waiting for so long, he finally did it. Did you beg the second master yourself, or did the second master force you to ask for it? came over"

Xiren hurriedly knelt down and said, "Second grandma, this slave knows that she is humble, and she never dares to do this and think about the second master. In fact, the second master met the slave here, what he said, the slave did not dare to screw it."

"All right!"

Sister Feng took two steps before she said, "I know about this. I'll look for a chance to tell the old lady."

Glancing at her, she just left. Jin Chuan'er went over to help her up and whispered, "You can't talk too much these days to cause trouble."

Xiren immediately nodded. Watching Sister Feng and the others leave, he seemed to have lost all his strength and leaned on the railing of the veranda. At this time, She Yue came over and pulled her, "Xiren, go back quickly, Second Master Bao is from the north. When Prince Jing's manor comes back, he loses his temper for some reason, and he can't persuade him, so go and say a few words!"

Xiren Hongxia has not retreated, "If the lord listens to persuasion, he will not be able to do so"

She Yue asked curiously: "what's the matter with you"

Xiren didn't want people to know, "Let's go, remember to put away that master's jade first, even if you drop the teacup, there is no limit. If I'm gone in the future, you must remember that master will change clothes when he comes back. I want tea."

She asked me carefully all the way. She Yue smiled and said, "Isn't this your job? Tell me everything?"

Xiren sighed: "I can still stay like this, maybe I'll be leaving that day."

She Yue was silent for a while, thinking that Xiren was going to be sent to match the boy! It was really unpleasant in her heart.

Chapter [*] He thought he was who Jia Lian was when he returned to the yard, and Sister Feng followed and said jokingly: "Second Master is so intrigued today, I finally pulled Xiren to my side, I'm afraid it's not Chaosi Mu thought about it for a long time, how did he start?"

Jia Lian pointed at her and said with a smile: "I just saw Xiren crying there, so I kindly asked what was wrong. It was because I talked a lot that made her disliked, so why don't you just go to my yard and give her half a day to think about it. , she told you"

Sister Feng said with a smile: "This girl sees me in the blink of an eye, and she says what you mean and asks her to serve you."

Jia Lian was taken aback for a moment, "That's right. It's just a little unexpected."

"I didn't expect her to hesitate at all, did she?"

Sister Feng sighed: "Second Master, you don't think of yourself as a grandfather too much. Who knows what your identity is, Baoyu's identity, who doesn't know that you love the girl by your side, if it wasn't for me, all of them would have their tails up in the sky. !"

Jia Lian took Sister Feng's hand and smiled: "It's not an example, it's not an example! Since I said this today, the second grandma can help me round it up."

Sister Feng spat: "There are only two stunners over there, and another attack here. There may be many more in the future! I'm used to it!"

As she said that, she felt uncomfortable in her chest and abdomen, and retched twice. Jia Lian stared at her and grabbed her hand, "Feng'er, you are going to have a son with me."

Sister Feng said angrily, "I don't know if it's my son or not. How to say it is really stupid!"

Jia Lian smiled and said: "Feng'er, go back to your room and rest. From now on, don't do anything, just raise the baby. If you give birth to a son, I will inherit everything. You are a great achievement!"

Sister Feng worried: "What if it's still a daughter?"

Jia Lian said firmly: "This time it must be my son!"

Sister Feng said angrily: "If it's not, Second Master, you can't give me face!"

There is always some anxiety in my heart. Jia Lian saw Sister Feng's thoughts and comforted: "Don't worry, it's not this time, we have another time, knowing that one is not safe until we have a son, and it will be safe to have another one."

Saying that, he picked her up by the waist and carried her into the room. He also hurriedly instructed Ping'er, "Go and tell the old lady and Mrs. Feng'er is not on vacation. It's better to teach the wife to take care of it these days, or let the elder sister-in-law help. Okay, let's go!"

He also instructed Jin Chuan'er, "Let the kitchen make something delicious and not taboo, and ask for it at any time!"

They all went, and Sister Feng said shyly: "It's not the first child, so I'm so nervous."

Jia Lian took the hairpin for her, took off her coat, and put Lajin on it, "Be obedient and don't run around. Don't worry about knives outside."

Sister Feng let him do the same, "If I let go, there may be trouble. I'll rest earlier, but it's fine if I'm tired."

"No!"

Jia Lian said displeased: "Listen to me! If you don't move, don't move! If you dare to refute my words, you won't be able to negotiate the price."

Sister Feng frowned, "Okay, the second master of the family has the final say. Don't come to me if something goes wrong!"

Sure enough, she lay down. Xu Shi was really tired. Sister Feng stuck on the bed and fell asleep after a while. Jia Lian stayed by her side and looked at her like that. I feel distressed! It's not good, I'm still holding on, why bother to take care of it! After a while, Ping'er came back and told Jia Lian that the old lady had asked her to be the housekeeper and the eldest grandma to help with the housework. He said that the second master Bao had returned. , I have something to tell you. Jia Lian sneered, "He can say what he has, don't worry about it, let him make trouble."

Ping'er smiled and said, "It was called by the old lady."

Jia Lian whispered, "The old lady said that she couldn't go even more, she was very partial. Listening to her scolding, it would be better for us to talk together."

Covering her face, rubbing and stroking. Ping'er blushed and broke free, pouting at Sister Feng. "What do you want to say?"

Jia Lian held her again, "Just tell me what you guys do when I'm not around"

Ping'er said: "The second master is not here, we don't care, that girl Qingwen is always lazy and can't even scream. You should still treat her, you can't say the life of the girl's body, you should also accept it. In my opinion, If it wasn't for the second master who dotes on her so much, he wouldn't be able to stay anywhere for long with his temperament."

Jia Lian smiled and said, "I spoil you all and no one dares to ask for it. You will not leave me."

Ping'er said shyly: "Second Master, we would rather die than leave."

"That's good, that's good! Let me die in the midst of a hundred flowers, and it's romantic to be a ghost!"

Jia Lian was joking with them, but fortunately, Sister Feng didn't notice. "Second Master"

When they were getting close, Jin Chuan'er's laughter came from behind, "Second Master, the old lady is calling again."

Jia Lian said angrily, "Just say I'm taking a break. I'll go to collect the punishment tomorrow."

Jin Chuan'er looked at them and turned her face to the side in shame. "Second Master"

There seemed to be the sound of mandarin ducks outside the door. Ping'er hurriedly broke free. Jin Chuan'er smiled at the door and said, "Mandarin ducks, what are you looking for with the second master?"

Yuanyang saw the figure inside slightly, and knew that it was not a coincidence, so she was so ashamed that she withdrew and did not dare to look again. Jin Chuan'er also came out and chuckled. Yuanyang gave her an annoyed look, and said crisply: "Old lady, let the second Lord. If it's inconvenient, I'll go back first."

Jia Lian straightened his robes and came out, "The old lady has said it again and again, what is it that my uncle is in charge of the big things, and the aunt is in charge of the small things, what can I do?"

Yuanyang explained: "Second Master, Second Master Bao brought back the letter from the prince from the Beijing palace."

"what!"

Jia Lian said angrily: "Baoyu is a worry! Who does he think he is?"

He strode to the old lady's main room. Baoyu sat next to the old lady on the couch. The old lady just called Baoyu, "Go and show it to your brother!"

Baoyu reluctantly took out a letter and handed it to Jia Lian. Jia linked it, without looking at it, tore it up, and said sharply: "Jia Baoyu, if you want to kill everyone and let the old lady go home On the street, let your uncle be exiled for [*] miles, and just go to the Beijing Palace! You are so daring, you dare to pass the letter of the Beijing king in private! From now on, if you take another step in the direction of the Beijing Palace, don’t blame the elder brother. Break your leg!"

Jia Lian has always been gentle and courteous, but today his tone was fierce, which really shocked the old lady and others. The old lady said angrily, "What kind of attitude do you have? Even if you dare to tear up the letter of the prince, it's you who dares to act!"

"old lady!"
