The night is dark. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info The palace is brightly lit. In the middle of the night, the family feast was dispersed. In the inner house, the relatives of the Wang family said goodbye one after another, got into a carriage and left the palace. The daughters of the Wang family sent each other off and said goodbye. The scene is ordinary, lively and warm.

The moment Aunt Xue took her daughter into the carriage, the smile on her face faded. Sitting on the collapsed chair in the carriage, sighing. She already knew about her son Xue Pan's provocation of Jia Huan, "This evil obstacle...."

Xue Baochai suppressed the anxiety in her heart and comforted her mother softly. She couldn't do it, and she could only hope that Brother Huan didn't really want to deal with her brother.

…

When the relatives got up to leave, Mrs. Wang did not move, but continued to drink tea in the hall indifferently. Wang Xifeng told jokes in front of her aunt, enlivening the scene and atmosphere.

Baoyu felt sad and restless. Thinking about going home early to rest, going to Sister Lin tomorrow to make amends, and then looking for comfort, "Mother, aren't we leaving?" ”

Mrs. Wang looked at her son lovingly and said with a smile: "You think you're tired, right?" Wait a little longer, your uncle is still seeing Brother Huan. ”

Baoyu let out an "um".

Wang Xifeng's beautiful Danfeng eyes flashed. I have a little bottom in my heart. It turned out that her uncle wanted to see Brother Huan. Now it's up to you to see how it turns out. If Brother Huan can get her uncle's approval, it will be great.

Mrs. Wang drank her tea, thinking about her conversation with her brother. She expressed her concern: Baoyu is her sister-in-law.

…

In Mingxuan, Wang Ziteng drank the sour plum soup that relieved hangover, looked at Jia Huan who was smiling, and said lightly: "I heard that you and your mother don't have a good relationship?" ”

The tone of this sentence was very light, but it put a lot of pressure on Jia Huan.

If Mrs. Wang accuses Jia Huan of being "unfilial" now, she wants to give the people of the Jia family a hat of "the Jia family is good if you can't see it", which is a big taboo for the daughter-in-law of the Jia family. Her reputation was gone.

But if Wang Ziteng says "Jia Huan is not filial", with the identity and status of Wang Ziteng's nine provinces (from Yipin), and Jia Huan's uncle, Jia Huan's reputation will be ruined by half.

Jia Huan didn't know whether Wang Ziteng was tentative or serious, and there was a little cold sweat on his back.

It is true that he can threaten Mrs. Wang with Xue Pan's instigation of the servants to beat people to death, if you want to investigate the matter of him sending pills to Jia Zhen, ask the mountain chief to shake this matter out in the court, and see if the prince is free? Madame Wang did not have the power to choose a political opponent for the prince.

But what if Wang Ziteng had to choose his own political opponents?

Jia Huan sighed in his heart. This is the 80-level tuba bullying him the 10-level trumpet. It has nothing to do with IQ, it is a crushing of strength. Flatly denied: "There is no such thing. Filial piety comes first. I may have some disagreements with my mother, but I would never dare to be disrespectful. ”

This is talking nonsense with your eyes open. But if Jia Huan admits that he and Mrs. Wang don't have a good relationship, it will be stupid.

The prince glanced at Jia Huan meaningfully, ignored Jia Huan, and drank sour plum soup.

Time seemed to stand still. Only the indistinct sound of silk and bamboo floated from the surface of the lake. The atmosphere in Mingxuan was stagnant. After half a cup of tea, Wang Ziteng put down the exquisite white porcelain bowl and said slowly: "It's good that you understand." ”

Jia Huan let out a long sigh of relief in his heart. There was already a wet piece on the back. It's very uncomfortable. Luckily, it's winter, so you can't see it from the outside.

After Wang Ziteng knocked on Jia Huan, he stretched out his hand and signaled, "Sit down." Since you call me 'uncle,' you don't have to be polite to me. ”

Jia Huan sat in the pear blossom wooden chair with a Buddha blue mattress in the Ming Xuan. Speechless. This is obviously the rhythm of a slap to a sweet date. Just listen to Wang Ziteng's words, you can't take them seriously. The bestowal is a privilege.

Wang Ziteng pulled the rope at hand, and a moment later two maids brought tea up. Jia Huan took a sip and tasted it: Yunwu tea. The grade is probably excellent.

Wang Ziteng drank tea, looked at the young man in front of him, and his information floated in his mind. A young prodigy, a poet and a genius, can be outstanding. Said condescendingly: "You are young, don't be complacent." We must work hard to forge ahead and strive for the title of the gold list as soon as possible. Parents and brothers at home should be filial and friendly. Be at peace with your relatives at home. ”

Jia Huan got up and replied, "Yes, uncle." ”

Wang Ziteng nodded with satisfaction, "You go." lest thy mother be anxious and waiting. If you have something to do in the future, you can come to see me in the house. You don't need to see the characters of Weikang and Ninglongjiang. The tone was proud.

Jia Huan understood as soon as he heard it. It is said that the mountain chief was in front of the Wuying Hall before the saint. Mr. Longjiang met him by chance and gave him a warning. Later, he met with Wei Kang, the head of the household department and Wei Shentong's father, to negotiate the conditions and promote the operation of the mountain chief and his family in the Wuying Palace.

Jia Huan agreed to come down and saluted goodbye. Out of Mingxuan, a maid led him to see Mrs. Wang, preparing to leave the palace. Along the way, the starlight is sprinkled in the gorgeous gardens and courtyards. Wang Ziteng's last sentence today was a little carried away and revealed his bottom thoughts. Wang Ziteng has no plans to turn his face with the mountain chief for the time being. So, he passed the test today.

After Jia Huan went out, in Mingxuan, Wang Ziteng was sipping tea with a calm face. His sister told him that Baoyu was her brother-in-law's sister-in-law. Jia Huan is a concubine. He knew that.

However, even if he is a concubine, the youngest person in the dynasty has the value of wooing and cultivating. Among the descendants of the four major families, this one is currently the most outstanding.

Of course, with him, it is impossible for Jia Huan to cross Baoyu.

…

Jia Huan saw Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng, and Jia Baoyu in the main hall of the palace.

Mrs. Wang put down the teacup in her hand and asked lightly, "Brother Huan, have you seen your uncle?" ”

Jia Huan nodded, "Hmm." He was still thinking about the gains and losses of his visit to the palace.

Mrs. Wang glanced at Jia Huan, "Let's go." He got up and left the palace with a few people saying goodbye. Jia Zheng and Jia Lian have their own arrangements. Along the way, Jia Huan sat in his carriage, counting the gains and losses of his visit to the palace.

I have to admit that Wang Ziteng has brought him great pressure, so that he has to seriously weigh and think about every word of Wang Ziteng. In the future, he will have some scruples in dealing with Mrs. Wang and Jia Baoyu. Even, the materials he was carrying in his arms now to teach Xue Pan a lesson could not be used.

Jia Huan really has plans to engage Xue Pan and his family. There are several reasons for this.

First, he was really upset when he saw the dumb overlord, and even provoked him in public. The tiger is not powerful, you and I are a sick cat.

Second, if he wants to marry Sister Bao in the future, this rich second generation who is full of the atmosphere of "pit father", if he doesn't suppress it, it is very likely that he will "pit his brother-in-law". Proper pig teammates.

Third, he wanted to try if he could kill the Erwuzai in Jia Yu Village and solve a time bomb in advance. Xiangling's case can completely involve Jia Yucun. When Jia Yucun rises to a high position in the future, it will be much more difficult.

Fourth, he wanted to solve Xiangling's problem by the way. Xiangling was 13 years old in the eleventh year of Yongzhi. With Baochai and Qingwen. This was an age when marriage was possible in ancient times. Xue Pan will beg Aunt Xue to give Xiangling to him as a concubine.

There are two ways for a man to marry a concubine: first, the parents agree and help him do it. For example, Jia pardoned the concubine Qiu Tong to Jia Lian. Second, Mrs. Zhengfang agreed. When it comes to marrying a concubine, it doesn't matter if the man himself says it. Therefore, Jia Lian married Second Sister You, even if he worshipped, he was secretly married. Wang Xifeng's consent must be considered an official entry.

The sixteenth chapter of the original book of Red Mansions, the timeline is the winter of the eleventh year of Red Mansions, because Jia Yuanchun chose Fengzao Palace, Jia Lian took Lin Daiyu day and night, and rushed back to the capital from Yangzhou. accompanied by Jia Yucun, who entered Beijing to see his majesty and was about to be promoted.

Wang Xifeng led Ping'er and the maid to follow Jia Lian, and when they were drinking at home, there was such a conversation between the two.

Jia Lian said: "When I was talking, I asked my aunt, who knew that it was the little girl who came to Beijing to buy, named Xiangling, who was a fool in the room with Xue Da Fool, opened her face, and became more and more provocative." That Xue Da fool really defiled - insulted her. ”

Sister Feng said: "That Boss Xue is also 'eating in the bowl and looking at the pot', this year's situation, he and his aunt have fought a lot of famine because Xiangling can't get it." is also because the aunt looks at Xiangling's appearance is good or the end, she acts as a person, but she is different from other girls, gentle and quiet, and the same master girl can't keep up with her, so the trouble of setting up wine and entertaining guests, she is a concubine with him in a righteous manner. After less than half a month, I also saw the wind in the stable, and I felt a pity in my heart. ”

This conversation reveals the clues. Xue Pan married Xiangling in a certain month of the eleventh year of the Red Mansion. And Jia Lian and Sister Feng didn't look down on Xue Pan, and felt that it was a pity for Xiangling to give him.

Jia Huan wants to avoid the tragedy of Xiangling being abused to death in the end. Don't let Xiangling be Xue Pan's concubine is the best way. When she becomes a concubine, Xiangling will have to follow Xue Pan in her life. Jia Huan cares about it, it is not an easy matter. That was Xue Pan's family affair.

But no matter how many reasons Jia Huan has for wanting to get Xue Pan, now he has to put it away, Wang Ziteng just said to him, "Relatives in the Yu family, be harmonious." He turned his head and went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to get Xue Pan in. This is definitely provoking Wang Ziteng.

Jia Huan sighed in his heart. This is the bad news for today's meeting. And there are several benefits of this meeting.

First, Mrs. Wang is in Jiafu, and I am afraid that she will have to be restrained with him. After all, her big backer, Prince Teng, had the intention of wooing him. In short, Jia Huan and Mrs. Wang must be harmonious now, and they are not allowed to tear apart. As for what I think in my heart, that's another story. This is Wang Ziteng's conciliation.

Second, his current status within the four major families is not a newcomer, but a junior valued by Wang Ziteng. The treatment of being received by Wang Ziteng alone is not something that anyone can enjoy. As for how much benefit Jia Huan can get from the four major families, especially the Wang family, it depends on his ability.

Third, Wang Ziteng allowed him to come to the palace to ask for a meeting. This gave him more room to maneuver when faced with a lot of things. With Wang Ziteng's status, the big thing in Jia Huan's eyes may be a small thing in front of him. If it is for the sake of the mountain chief, there is also more room for exchange, maneuver, and communication.

Of course, it would be naïve to think that Wang Ziteng could be a backer. Jia Huan would never think so. Jia Huan has a clear understanding of this: he may be able to grow into a valuable chess piece in the hands of Wang Ziteng, but he will never be a candidate to inherit the position of the four major families. The pawn can be sacrificed, and the heir must be preserved.

The distinction between the two is not just talking.

He and Wang Ziteng are not related by blood. Baoyu is Wang Ziteng's nephew.

Most of the princes in the court have grown from chess pieces to chess players. But Jia Huan doesn't think that being a pawn for others is something to be happy about and to show off. Although being a chess piece shows that he is not a waste material.

Destiny is best in your own hands. Although, sometimes the strength is not enough to choke the throat of fate, but we can strive for this goal. (To be continued.) )
