The Promotion of Yuanchun in the Red Chamber
Chapter 41
This is the official way.
Not to mention the prince's departure, even the seventh prince had to go this way when he went to the northern border to sit in the township, and after many years, it didn't matter to anyone who went, but it happened to him that something went wrong.
After all, he was the one who was able to deceive the eldest son of the south in a critical moment, and finally escaped unscathed. How could he hide this little trick from him?Wang Ziteng's complexion is not bad at this moment, and he can still put his injured leg on his back and say leisurely: "This is a blow to the horse."
The niece and son-in-law Jia Lian, who was supposed to take up the post a month later than himself, rushed to help because of repeated urgings from his sister and niece.
It is said that although Jia Lian is still young, he also understands that when he and his wife's uncle go to the office, the local people will never greet him with food and drink, but this... is not only a threat, but also a murder?
Jia Lian was unavoidably frightened and frightened, of course he was more frightened than frightened——Guankou City where the Dudu Mansion is located, outside the city is the camp of the Seventh Prince guarding the pass. got it?
It's just that the situation in the city must be much more troublesome than he imagined.
But what should be said still has to be said, his attitude is also very important, Jia Lian said angrily: "There is no law for the king! If they murder the court officials, they will die."
Wang Ziteng seemed to have expected it a long time ago, "Cutting off a person's fortune is like killing one's parents."
Jia Lian wondered, "Why do you still excuse them?"
"It's justifiable, and it's not true that I let it go." Wang Ziteng smiled, but no matter how you look at this smile, it makes people chill, "Besides, even if I agree, there are some people who don't agree."
Thanks to the eldest prince's blessing, the prince got the position of the lower governor. When he was at home, he thought over and over again: it is extremely rare to be able to control a state's military affairs in one fell swoop.However, he only joined the eldest prince's family last year, and it is barely reasonable to buy a horse bone with a thousand gold, but the timing is not right...
If it's really a good job, why not give it to those confidants who have followed the First Prince for several years?In addition, this time, there was such a "catastrophe" before stepping into the border of the pass city, Wang Ziteng knew it well this time, thinking of this, he couldn't help but sighed softly.
Leaving the tiger's den in the south, this is entering the wolf's den in the north again... But if you want to show your ability, of course you have to handle this tricky job well!The key is that you have enough capital: you have soldiers in your hands, and you have "relatives and friends" who are willing to help.
Seeing that Wang Ziteng's smile gradually softened, Jia Lian stepped forward and asked respectfully, "I also ask uncle for advice."
Wang Ziteng said: "Just think about what kind of people make a living in the pass city?"
Guankou City is adjacent to Xiongguan in the north, which is the main route between the north and the south, and there are many merchants: outside the pass, apart from the Beidi, the enemy of the Central Plains, there are several tribes in the northeast who have good relations with the dynasty and have been in business for many years.
They transported medicinal materials, livestock, fur, and precious stones to the pass in exchange for tea, ironware, grain, rice, cloth and other daily necessities. Most of the merchants in the pass city were dealing in these special products from the north.
Of course, there are too many merchants, and some people can't resist the temptation, so they will take the risk and smuggle goods to Beidi secretly, and at the same time, they will leak some important news under the heavy money.
In the past, this way of making money, as well as the people on the road, have been very smooth and familiar with it after many years of operation, but this time the "outsider" Prince Teng came... Naturally, there are sudden changes.
When Wang Ziteng made a point, Jia Lian also thought of these businessmen who secretly had contacts with Beidi—in his mind, only these people could have such courage!Because what they usually do is to find out and lose their heads.
Jia Lian couldn't help saying angrily: "Sure enough... If it falls into my hands, I will definitely not let them go!"
Wang Ziteng smiled again, "Don't worry about this, just put your heart into it. Even if you want to do something, you have to wait for the prince to come." As he said, he patted Jia Lian on the shoulder, "You talk to the prince better than me." Use it."
These words made Jia Lian very comfortable, and he didn't think about it deeply. Wang Ziteng meant to use him to pull the seventh prince Zhao Zhizhen into the water together.
It is said that Wang Ziteng was in danger on the way to his post, and it soon spread to Yuanchun's ears-Guankou City is only more than 200 miles away from the capital.
Yuan Chun could learn from the chief steward of the palace that his uncle had broken his leg, so Mrs. Wang could also hear about the inside story from her natal sister-in-law. It's just that her daughter-in-law Li Wan is about to give birth, and Mrs. Wang won't be able to leave for a while. I had no choice but to send my confidant Zhou Rui's family to come to the palace to complain to her daughter.
After Zhou Rui's family entered, they kept peeking at Yuan Chun's face, and said cautiously at this time, "My wife said, why did uncle and master suffer such a secret loss? It hurts so much."
Yuan Chun said with a smile, "Mother and uncle have been very close since childhood."
Zhou Rui's family knew what Mrs. Wang wanted: Mrs. Wang wanted her daughter to persuade the prince, and then let the prince firmly protect Wang Ziteng and Jia Lian... Of course, protecting Wang Ziteng is the most important thing, and Jia Lian is just an incidental.
Seeing that the side concubine just refuses to answer this question... Now even Mrs. Wang dare not force the side concubine to promise, Zhou Rui's family can only say: "Isn't it? Uncle also often asks about you."
Then let's take advantage of the situation and ask the prince... Yuan Chun doesn't care about it: Uncle is of course very capable, but it's really a bit... merciful and forgetful.
When he develops in the future, there will be villains around him, but there are not many real friends. When the day comes, there will be few people who are willing to extend their hands sincerely.
Yuan Chun shook his head, "They are all relatives, and they pretend to be affectionate in their hearts."
Zhou Rui's family was immediately confused, did the side concubine agree or not?She didn't dare to ask directly, "You are right."
Yuan Chun said again: "I happened to get some good medicinal materials here, share some with my grandmother, aunt, mother and sister-in-law, and you can take them back together." This is driving people away.
Zhou Rui's family took half a car back to Rong Mansion, and told Madam Wang what Yuan Chun said and did in detail. She was slightly annoyed because of her face; secondly, she couldn't have a relationship with her daughter, whether it was for love or profit, especially since the whole family knew that her daughter was more than just respectable in front of the prince.
There is no need for money to pave the way, and there is no need to beg in every possible way, the Seventh Prince took the initiative to support Yuan Chun's natal family for the sake of Yuan Chun!
The future of his son and nephew was settled, and Jia Zheng didn't have to burn the prince's hot stove anymore, and he could take advantage of the good season of early spring to visit the garden and chat with his diners all day long.
Fortunately, Jia Zhu didn't forget to discipline Baoyu while studying.
After Baoyu left the school, he never touched the Four Books and Five Classics. Even the poems and songs were more fond of those poems expressing his feelings of worrying about the country, the people, and making contributions.
As the saying goes, three years old is old, Baoyu is almost ten years old now, and most of her temperament and preferences can be seen.Jia Zhu, who expects his brothers to work together to make money and revitalize Rongfu's honor, is inevitably disappointed: Although his younger brother is quite talented in poetry, his knowledge in official career and economics is not as good as that of his son Jia Lan, let alone his cousin. Lin Heng.
But thinking of the father who was casually chatting with the diners, Jia Zhu felt his head hurt even more.He took the township examination this year and will take the examination next year. It took less than two years in total. He wanted to teach his younger brothers personally. Even if he didn't take the official career in the future, he could still help the family business.
Of course, it's not easy to leave my concubine Jia Huan behind when Baoyu is called.The child was raised by Aunt Zhao herself since she was a child... Rebuilding the family business requires brothers to work hard together, but if it drags down the family, one person is enough.
Therefore, no matter what Mrs. Wang thinks, Jia Zhu will not abandon Jia Huan unless he is really rotten wood.
Jia Zheng may be a bit pedantic, but he also has an advantage: he does not love power.Seeing the eldest son support the family business, he would only willingly let go of the pick.After hearing that the eldest son wants to teach his younger brother to read, how can there be any reason why he shouldn't?
It's just that Mrs. Wang hit a soft nail on her daughter first, and then let her eldest son stab her in the heart, but this kind of depression has nowhere to go, and the housekeeper is much stricter than before.
Because Li Wan was about to give birth, she handed over the housekeeping to her mother-in-law. Seeing that her mother-in-law had been upset all day, she couldn't persuade her deeply, so she told Jia Zhu the truth later.Jia Zhu laughed it off, and still went her own way.
So Baoyu, Jia Huan and Jia Lan came back from the school the next day, changed their clothes and obediently reported to the elder brother's study.
Jia Zhu set aside a special hour to tell the two of them about history... It's too early to tell them about the classics, and besides, there are still people who don't like to listen, so it's better to use the stories in the history books to give them some insight.
Jia Zhu's knowledge and knowledge are not comparable to the old Mr. Jia Dairu in the family school. Besides, he knows how to teach students according to their aptitude and entertaining them. Baoyu, who thought that studying with his brother would have a hard time, was fascinated.
Jia Huan is also willing to get close to his eldest brother because Jia Zhu treats everyone equally and is gentle and gentle... Although Aunt Zhao taught him to value money very much and is jealous of Baoyu's favor, she understands that even Baoyu will be like him in the future and have to live with her eldest brother .
The two younger brothers were quite obedient, and Jia Zhu was half relieved when he said that.
Jia Min appreciated Jia Zhu's deeds very much, so he often praised this nephew in front of Lin Hai, and he never forgot to teach his sons and daughters, "Your cousin Zhu is quite a gentleman," his eyes fell on his daughter Daiyu, "How much?" It's good to learn from him."
Daiyu smiled, and hugged her mother's arm, "Cousin Zhu is the most kind, but he is going back to Nanxiang for an exam this year, and my daughter dare not disturb him."
Daiyu and Baoyu were very close. Mother Jia saw it, and naturally thought of getting closer.
Even though Mrs. Wang was at odds with her sister-in-law, she couldn't hold back her mother-in-law, Jia Mu, and was even more unwilling to offend Lin Hai for the sake of her two sons, so she acquiesced in acquiescence—if the eldest son, Jia Zhu, could become an official sooner, her brother, Prince Teng, would come again. Make some contributions, and there may be better choices in a few years.
Jia Min also guessed what sister-in-law Mrs. Wang was thinking, and it was exactly the same. She didn't bring her children back to her natal family: how could her daughter fulfill Mrs. Wang's "up for sale"?
Jia Min thought about taking her daughter to the homes of some good wives, getting to know some new sisters, and getting along with her for a while, so that "Brother Bao" could be left alone. Right now, Lin Hai just returned home. She went to greet her with her daughter.
Seeing Lin Hai's brows stretched, Jia Min smiled and said, "What good happened to the master?"
Lin Haidao: "Maybe it will be easier this year."
According to the confession of the eldest son of the prince in the south, he followed the clues and copied several sums of money. This year, he will not have to worry about the military salary at once. Why is Lin Hai not happy?Today, even the Holy Majesty felt relieved.
Of course, Zhao Zhizhen was also happy for the same reason, and he would be more confident in fighting if he had money, but after reading the secret letter from his younger sister, the sixth princess, he had a hidden worry: after the eldest prince showed his favor twice and three times, the prince finally made a move ... He heard that the prince intends to marry the concubine's natal cousin.
The problem is that the former concubine Liu Wei died without even half a year.
The author has something to say: continue to write the second update, there is no guarantee that it will be before twelve o'clock, so everyone should watch it tomorrow morning~~
