The Red Chamber: Lianyufengchai

Jia Lian only said: "The court is full of talents, no need for ministers to recommend."

Yuan Chun was silent. As far as she was concerned, she naturally believed in Jia Lian, and only in Jia Lian. Now Jia Lian has no choice but to worry, no matter who the military power is handed over to, she is not at ease. She was trembling. She vaguely hoped that Jia Lian would agree to seduce her, but she couldn't say it: she had nothing to say for a while. The little emperor also said: "Uncle, if you don't care about them, I will not sleep well. Uncle still reluctantly bears this burden for the time being."

Jia Lian declined and said: "Please forgive me, the emperor has no intention of doing anything at this time."

The little emperor did not persuade him any more, and asked, "I heard that my uncle is originally from Jinling, do you want to help Lingling back to Jinling?"

Jia Lian heard the meaning of his words, bowed and replied: "If you go back to the emperor, the ancestral tomb of this minister's origin is indeed in Jinling."

The little emperor said, "Then"

Of course, it is far away, and the emperor is far away. If Shenjing is not acceptable, it is not unacceptable to be king in Jinling. Yuanchun asked: "This is a thousand miles away from Jinling. If you go there, brother, if something happens in Shenjing, Aijia will ask. Why don't you ask someone to discuss, why don't you stop at Tiejian Temple first and keep filial piety in the capital?"

As long as the people of Jia Lian are still there: Shenjing, then there is still a helper to support the big and small matters. Jia Lian quietly looked at the face of the little emperor, his look of hope made Jia Lian in a trance. He insisted: "Now iron The coffins of Uncle and Brother Zhen are still parked in the temple. This time I plan to transport them and my father's coffin back to Jinling for burial. They will be buried in the ground for peace. As for the matter of Shenjing, with the elders of the pavilion and the ministers here, I have nothing to worry about. Just waiting for the completion of the ritual, the minister's family will get up and go south. But the old lady is too old and can't stand ups and downs, so it's better to stay in Shenjing."

Seeing that he had decided to leave, Yuanchun looked at him helplessly: "Brother, if you have to go, if there is a rush, you are not here, who can I rely on?"

Jia Lian said: "I have already explained to Jia Guo Jia Shou, and Wang Er and the others that they are both the family of the minister and the queen mother. You can definitely believe it."

Yuanchun kept it all in his heart, "So, brother, be careful all the way, and go back for a few months, and the Aijia will call you back."

Jia Lian hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "The queen mother, the younger brother Ding You, how can you?"

Yuanchun stretched out his hand to signal him to stop, "Aijia didn't let you get overwhelmed, it's just that the old lady is not in good health, you can't just do your uncle's filial piety and forget the old lady's filial piety, come back as soon as possible, your duty, grief If you say hello to your family and the cabinet, you will not appoint a new person instead. Even if you, Duke Rongguo, have no position, as long as you are still in the Shenjing, no one will dare to do anything wrong. The Ai family and the emperor can also sit back and relax."

Jia Lian pondered for a long time, not knowing how to answer. Yuanchun comforted again: "Uncle can't be filial to your grandmother. As a grandson, you should naturally be filial to your uncle. There is no doubt about this, so it's settled. It's up to you. Fake burial in Jinling, and then return to Beijing to observe filial piety. Everything in the Beijing camp is still the same, and you cannot change it.

The things that Jia Lian was worried about before were resolved by Yuanchun's move. Jia Lian neither seized love, nor was able to find another fire, and left. It seems that everyone is happy, at least the emperor is also very happy, still: and Jia Lian Inquiring about the interesting things about Jinling. Yuan Chun and the old lady Wang Madam Xing waited for the family, and when they did not move, they got up and drove back to Luan. After they left, Yang Jihe found Jia Lian and said, "Dong Weng, we have agreed on something. Son, is it a delay?"

Jia Lian pondered: "The matter of seizing love is too involved, and it has to be done as a last resort. Now that the empress dowager is doing this, it is still acceptable. It's just"

Yang Jihe echoed: "It's just that Dongweng, you lost your power to control the Gyeonggi camp. After one or two years, people's hearts are scattered, and everything will return to the original point."

Jia Lian chuckled: "If you can really go back to the starting point, that's a good thing. Don't worry about anything, just have fun at home."

Yang Jihe said, "Even I can enjoy it."

Jia Lian patted him on the shoulder, "However, I can still take this opportunity to pull a few people off the horse. I'll save myself from worrying about someone giving me a knife behind me when I'm not in Shenjing."

Yang Jihe nodded and said, "For example, our senior scholar Jiang. I don't know if he has anything to do with the group of assassins who assassinated Dongweng before."

Jia Lian shook his head, "People are serious cabinet ministers, how can they be compared to those who are savage?"

Yang Jihe cupped his hands and said, "The so-called "knowing the face, knowing the face, but not the heart" is probably the same for the scholar Jiang."

Jia Lian walked out of the house with his hands behind his back, "He is a patriarch, unless it endangers the safety of the imperial court, and is related to a certain thief, this kind of trumped-up crime, let's not talk about it! I will let you tell me that he is in the Ministry of Household. A few interesting things you have done, tell our friends after dinner, let’s talk about it as a joke!”

Yang Jihe understood clearly, "It's just that even if he goes, who should enter the cabinet?"

Jia Lian said: "According to: order, the Minister of Punishment Gao Jin! We have a common language in business."

Chapter [*] The wicked must have the wicked Mo the Empress Dowager and the emperor's grace to allow Jia Lian to take leave of absence and be buried in Jinling, and keep the system in Shenjing. They kept it all for him, and no longer gave it to anyone. So everyone knew what the empress dowager and the emperor meant. There was no pretense of stealing love, but there was a reality of recovery. On the day of the funeral, the large and small sedan chairs that the officials and guests sent to the funeral, even the family Get off the vehicle, no less than a hundred or ten rides. Even the various deacons in front, the furnishings, the hundreds of performances, the mighty, the area is three or four miles away, and just in front of the city gate, there are Jia Zheng, Jia Lian, colleagues and their families. The sacrificial shed received the sacrifices, thanked them one by one, and then went out of the city to go to the main road of Tiejian Temple. Everyone in the clan stayed in the temple. A group of female relatives went to the Shuiyue Nunnery not far away to rest. , Jia Lian came out of the incense, and faced a tall and strong black iron man who bowed his head and bowed, "The villain Sun Shaozu pays tribute to the grandfather of the country!"

Jia Lian listened to Sun Shaozu, the blue veins on his hands burst out, and he was about to do it. Fortunately, he held back in time, and said solemnly: "Get up and talk!"

That Sun Shaozu didn't dare to look up, he just bowed back to the side, and followed Jia Lian. "You are Sun Shaozu. I heard Zhang Taoist of Xuguan said clearly, and I heard that you have a good style."

Sun Shaozu responded quickly: "If you go back to the father-in-law, the villain has been good at martial arts since he was a child. It's not that the villain is boasting. There are a few dozen people who can't get close to me."

Jia Lian looked back at him, "You are still there: waiting for a post in the Ministry of War"

Sun Shaozu said: "Yes. I beg the Lord of the country to enjoy the meal!"

After he finished speaking, he knelt down in front of Jia Lian and kowtowed. Jia Lian didn't mean to help him, and asked with a smile, "You are talking about why I want to reward you with food and what can you give me in return?"

Sun Shaozu answered without hesitation: "The villain asks himself that no one appreciates and promotes his skills, so he wastes thirty years. If he is valued by the prince, the villain is willing to lead the horse to the prince."

Jia Lian shook his head and said, "My subordinates are willing to lead a horse for me, and there are not many for you, but not for you."

Sun Shaozu said: "The villain has no other ability, and there is still some spare time in the family, so he can come to offer his grandfather."

Jia Lian smiled and said: "A gentleman loves money in a proper way, but I'm a person who covets other people's money, so I don't need to say it again!"

So Sun Shaozu was stunned. Jia Lian said, "Go back and think about it!"

Immediately leaving. Seeing that Jia Lian was about to leave, Sun Shaozu hurriedly knelt down, "Master Guo, if you take him in, Sun Shaozu will be your dog from now on, and I will bite whoever you want me to bite!"

Jia Lian squinted and asked him, "What you said is true"

Seeing Jia Lian's relief, Sun Shaozu happily took two steps on his knees and bowed down, "Your Highness, the villain's words come from the bottom of your heart, if you have two hearts, you will be struck by thunder, and you will never be born! Jia Lian nodded slightly, "I will tell you what to do. One thing, you, I will lift you up!"

Sun Shaozu was overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Please give me instructions, the villain will die!"

Jia Lian stepped forward and kicked him, "Get up!"

Sun Shaozu got up and followed Jia Lian respectfully not far behind. Jia Lian therefore instructed: "Find a few people and go to No. [*], Fanzi Hutong, Xianyifang, it is a big house, and there is trouble. As long as there is no human life, the bigger the better!"

Sun Shaozu immediately agreed: "Please rest assured, Grandpa Guo, this matter is easy to handle, there are ways for the villain. It will only take a day or two, so let them move out."

Jia Lian smiled and said, "Do you know who's house this is?"

Sun Shaozu shook his head: "It doesn't matter who he is, as long as he hinders the grandfather of the country, he is my Sun Shaozu's enemy!"

Jia Lian looked at him and said, "This is the outer house of Jiang Puyang, a cabinet scholar, and he gave birth to a young son."

Sun Shaozu's eyes widened. Jia Lian asked, "Do you still dare to go?"

He chuckled lightly, and walked forward with his hands on his back. Seeing Jia Lian go far, Sun Shaozu didn't want to give up his achievements, so he didn't have time to think about it, he gritted his teeth and rushed in front of Jia Lian, and knelt down again, "Master Guo, although the villain is humble , but I also know etiquette, righteousness and shame. The dignified minister of the cabinet, to actually do such an embarrassing thing, the villain is really unbearable in his heart, and he is fighting for the villain's life to expose this scandal!"

Jia Lian pulled him up, patted him on the shoulder and praised: "You are very courageous! If you have succeeded, I will not break my promise, and it is easy for you to find a guerrilla or even a general in the Beijing camp. But, you should also know that these It's none of my business!"

Sun Shaozu cupped his hands and said, "Please don't worry, the grandfather of the country, the little one will definitely not involve the grandfather of the country! If it is smashed, the grandfather of the country can pluck the head of the villain, and even my daughter-in-law will treat you as a cow and a horse. go!"

Jia Lian shook his head and said, "I don't want your head! Also, when did you get married, I heard from Taoist Zhang, you are still naked"

Sun Shaozu said loudly: "If you go back to the country, the father-in-law was also the matchmaker for Zhang Shenxian last year. He married the daughter of the Osmanthus Xia family. She still looks reluctant, but she has a left-handed temper.

Jia Lian was very curious about how the two of them got along. Listening to his words, it seemed that Xia Jingui had suffered a lot. Jia Lian pretended to say casually, "That's it, wait for the housekeeper to give you a gift."

Sun Shaozu even said he didn't dare. Jia Lian hadn't paid attention to them for a long time, and he couldn't help hearing him talk about it today, "I heard that the daughter of the Xia family is also knowledgeable and reasonable, no matter how strong we men are, we shouldn't beat them. "

Sun Shaozu secretly regretted that no one in Shenjing knew about this... Grandpa Guo had a good temper at home. He was lustful and fond of each other. He didn't say a single heavy word. It's just that she is so jealous of this girl. The villain just asked her girl to serve for two nights, and then she won't give up. The villain is a violent temper. , press it on the table and do it. Once there is trouble in the future, the villain will do it once, whether it is in the hall or the garden corridor, if she catches it, she will come and go, and she will not dare to put her Miss Xia's spectrum in front of the villain. ."

Jia Lian could imagine how gloomy the days after Xia Jingui's marriage were. Sun Shaozu said triumphantly, but he did not think that Xia Jingui was not so easy to accept fate, and quietly hooked up with Sun Erlang and Sun Shaozong, and the two fought hotly in private. Just hide it from Sun Shaozu, that's another story. Jia Lian is also very proud, this is the wicked person who has the wicked grind, send Sun Shaozu away, and someone reported that King Bei Jing is here. Jia Lian frowned, he still remembers Bei Jing What King Jing said, I'm afraid I'm still waiting for my reply! Not long after, Jia Lian sent King Bei Jing away from the back door, and Niu Jizong, Liu Fang and others visited in pairs. Niu Jizong grabbed Jia Lian's hand and said, "Brother Lian Son, let's pay homage to your father and see you off. Listen to the old brother's words, go to Jinling and make arrangements, come back immediately, don't delay."

Liu Fang also said: "Bring more people when you go. Some of us old guys in the capital will try to watch over you as much as possible, but, you know, we are not you after all, there are people in the cabinet who are unhappy with you, what are you doing? Can't stop it."

Chapter [*] He may not be a good match. Until the next day, the funeral ceremony has been completed, and the day for the long journey has been set. Jia Lian explained the affairs of the government and the military in detail, and selected hundreds of soldiers. , helped the coffins of Jia She, Jia Jing and Jia Zhen to go south. Because of the will of the Queen Mother, she would return to Beijing to perform filial piety after the burial, so only Jia Lian went there alone, and Sister Feng waited on the old lady in the mansion. Let's also say that for the past few days, the sisters of Fengyiyuan have been filial to the country and their families, and they are not allowed to feast and have fun, and even a group of female performers have nothing to do. Li Wan led the girls to only make needles as a profession, and occasionally a poetry club was established. , also lazy, three sentences are not complete, it is meaningless. In the Pillow Xia Pavilion, Xiang Yun was crooked on the couch, holding this collection of poems in his hand, read two sentences, "He Yan is the same as Fengyue, Jibei. Jiangnan Wanli Love."

After reading it, he didn't know what to think of, so he hurriedly covered his face with the book. Baoqin just lifted the curtain and came in, jokingly said, "Shouldn't it be Jinling?"

Xiangyun blushed like xia, took out the book and spat: "You can't even remember Bai Juyi's poem wrong, how can there be anything about Jinling here?"

Baoqin sat beside her, and when she saw someone was there, she didn't reply to her words. Cuilui next to her hurriedly came up and smiled: "Miss Qin, sit down for a while, we don't have any other tea here, wait for the servant to ask Qin Yiniang for some. Come."

Baoqin asked: "I've been away for a few days, so why is there no good tea? Could it be that you girls don't like seeing me, if this is the case, I'd say it earlier, and I won't be here!"

Xiangyun heard the words and said angrily: "Then you go quickly, because you hate you!"

Cuilu hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "Miss Qin, why would you think that you are just our girl who wants to keep those big red robes, and the Longjing and other things are only used up."

Baoqin asked, "Sister Yun, you're not the one who likes Dahongpao the most, but you can still endure it without drinking it."

Before Xiangyun could speak, Cuilui smiled and said, "Our girl left it to Second Master Lian!"

"You're just talking nonsense!"

Xiangyun was very annoyed and wanted to drive her out: "Make some tea!"

Baoqin said deliberately: "Forget it, I have a poor life, so I can't eat these things. A glass of water is enough."

Cuilu went to fetch the tea leaves to brew. Baoqin saw that she was gone, smiled at Xiangyun and said, "Sister, may I have red beans here?"

Xiang Yun threw the book, and sat up to tear her mouth: "If you think I don't know what you want to say, then I'll ask you, how many sticks will Chunlai send?"

Baoqin laughed and hid around the study, "Sister, I won't say it again!"

Xiangyun twisted her face, "You are not allowed to say that in the future."

Baoqin nodded, "It's just Sister Yun, you really think about him"

Xiangyun glared at Baoqin and sat on the edge of the couch angrily, "Who would think of him, I'm so angry! It's really unreasonable to say those stupid things to us, and afraid of being known by Sister Feng and Sister Lin. Bored!"

Baoqin smiled and asked, "You really think so"

Xiangyun spat: "Who is still trying to deceive you?"

Baoqin stretched out a white jade-like finger, "I'll teach you a method, I'm sure it will work!"

Xiangyun quickly asked: "What way do you have to do Baoqin to laugh by herself first? Xiangyun grabbed her and beat her twice, scolding: "People are annoyed!"

"Good sister!"

Baoqin is holding the best. Since my elder sister has troubles, why can't my younger sister come to solve it?"

Xiang Yun urged: "Then tell me your way!"

Baoqin restrained the smile on her face, "Why don't you tell Sister Feng and Sister Lin about this, saying that the second brother is thinking of you and that you are going home."

"Pooh!"

Xiangyun was even more annoyed: "What's the way to not go back there! If I go back, my uncle and aunt will marry me out, and I won't be able to come back!"

Baoqin looked at her curiously, "Our girl's family, we are going to get married at this age. Since the elder sister doesn't want to marry the second elder brother, she hired her earlier, and if she wants to come, the elder brother won't show his face to grab the kiss. It's not up to you. meaning"

Xiang Yun's face became even more rosy, and said angrily, "I'm not ashamed either, then I'm not the only one who was there on the day you're going to marry."

Baoqin was also ashamed, "I'm giving your advice to my sister, and it has nothing to do with me."

Xiangyun asked her, "Tell me, what are you going to do?"

Baoqin pretended not to understand, "What should I do?"

Xiang Yun tapped her forehead with his finger, "I'm still pretending! Today, neither of us are hiding anything from the other, what should we do?"

Baoqin looked at her blankly, and after a long time, she sighed: "Sister Yun, I'm different from you. Not to mention that my brother has already said that, even if he didn't say that, our family would not like me to stay here. go!"

Xiangyun doesn't understand, "why"

Baoqin briefly explained the situation of the Xue family, "What can I say?"
