When Guozi was out of school, the sky gradually wiped black. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoHowever, the days of winter are short. By the time Jia Huan followed Zhen Li and others to the painting boat moored by the Qinhuai River, it was already the beginning of the lanterns, and the night was cold with the inherent coldness of winter.

The boat is painted with lacquer and hung with lanterns. The cabin is covered with carpets, elegantly decorated and exquisite, and there are already several women dressed in beautiful clothes, each holding musical instruments such as pipa, guzheng, guqin, transverse flute, and changxiao. There were also four women in pink waiting, slender and graceful, with beautiful appearances.

There is a round table in the hall, and the servants are serving delicious food and wine. Extremely accurate point-in-time cards.

Zhen Li is twenty-eight years old, beautifully dressed, with a golden waist and jade, and gorgeous lines. Smiling and welcoming Jia Huan, he sat down at the round table and said, "This is an ugly boat under the board, don't think Ziyu is slacking off me." ”

Jia Huan was speechless for a while, looking at the calligraphy and paintings furnished in the cabin, the smooth sour pear wood furniture, the whole glass windows on both sides of the painting boat, and the thick woolen blanket with West Asian style under his feet. A bowl of cherries. Plus the fine porcelain cutlery on the round table. Not to mention the cost of raising the singer team, just to say that these decorations and usage, they will definitely not be able to buy without thousands of dollars. If this is called a bad boat, there are few boats on the Qinhuai River that can be called luxurious.

"Brother Li is polite."

Zhen Li laughed and waved his hand. The painting boat is stable in the singing, boating on the Qinhuai River.

The Qinhuai River enters the city of Nanjing from the East Water Pass, flows west to the Huaiqing Bridge and meets the Qingxi, then goes southwest to the small canal at the Lishe Bridge, and then turns to the northwest through the Wende Bridge, Wuding Bridge and Zhenhuai Bridge, crosses the pontoon bridge, passes the Confucius Temple to the west, and exits the city from the West Water Pass.

Jia Huan's residence is near Wuding Bridge. The location when boarding the boat is the Rishibu Bridge. This is the famous ten-mile Qinhuai River. Jia Huan has been to Nanjing many times in his previous life, and has rented a boat to visit the Qinhuai River many times, relying on the historical sites.

Among the modern articles, of course, Mr. Zhu Ziqing and Yu Pingbo's "Qinhuai River in the Sound of Oars and Lights and Shadows" is the best. Among the ancient texts, according to Mr. Zhu Ziqing's account, you can think of Kong Shangren's immortal masterpiece "Peach Blossom Fan" when visiting.

There is also Du Mu's famous article "Bo Qinhuai", which has a sentence "The merchant girl does not know the hatred of the country, and she still sings the flower in the back garden across the river." "To understand it in modern terms, there is always some ambiguity that ripples in the sound of oars and songs, gathering gold dust and romantic atmosphere.

The four women in pink sang "Water Tune Song Tou - When Will the Bright Moon Be There" written (copied) by Jia Huan. A delicate and beautiful woman beside her poured wine for Jia Huan, with a delicate posture, about 1.6 meters. Wearing a lake blue shirt, his breasts are straight and his waist is thin. It also has skin that beats snow and talks elegantly. A very delicate beauty. "Yuan Jingxiang, a slave, has the honor to serve Gongzi Jia tonight."

"Hmm." Jia Huan didn't realize that the beauty around him was one of the four famous prostitutes in Jiangnan, and rubbed his eyebrows slightly. It's not that he can't stand this pink battle. It's that he has something on his mind. Just imagine, come up and sing your work first, isn't that a compliment? This is a more clever way than Zhu Huazang directly complimenting him a few days ago.

Thinking about it again, when he first came to Jinling to visit the Zhen family according to the usual practice, Zhen Yingjia and Zhen Li reacted with detachment in their enthusiasm, and they could understand it.

Zhen Li has something to do with him!

Zhen Li smiled and raised his glass, entertained Jia Huan, and casually picked up the topic to chat, "I don't know if Ziyu has read the Di newspaper a few days ago." Fu - Jiandao Yushi Cheng and Feng Shangshu opposed the reform of the salt law, and was dismissed by the Son of Heaven and returned to his hometown. ”

Jia Huan smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Recently, I have only been reading sage books, and I don't hear anything outside the window. I didn't read it. His heart moved slightly, and he groaned.

Zhen Li just smiled, "I'll punish myself." Ziyu studied hard and was interested in fame. It's not like I'm already stuck in Vanity Fair and no longer motivated. ”

Just then, a tune was sung. Zhen Li stretched out his hand and signaled, "Ziyu has any good works recently?" "Poetry can be sung.

Jia Huan smiled indifferently and said, "If you have something in your heart, you don't have the intention of poetry, even wine, beauty." ”

This is urging Zhen Li not to go around in circles, and hurry up to say something.

Zhen Li laughed, clapped his hands, and asked the famous prostitutes and singers who accompanied the wine on the table, and the servants who were waiting outside, to leave, and went straight to the painting boat that followed behind.

The spacious cabin was bustling and clean again. It was still warm Ruchuan, but Jia Huan's face gradually became serious. Zhen Li actually drove all the slaves to the boat behind, which shows that the next thing to be discussed is very confidential.

Zhen Li held the cup and drank a cup with Jia Huan, the smile on his face disappeared, and he said very formally: "Ziyu, Zheng Yuanjian has found the Zhen family." ”

Zhen Li only said one sentence, but he believed that Jia Huan understood what he was going to say.

Jia Huan couldn't help frowning, didn't speak, and took a sip of wine gently.

There is no system that can guarantee absolute fairness. Therefore, in the 21st century, there are still rich and poor people in the world. Bustling metropolises like New York and London are home to some of the world's largest slums.

People are born unequal! The children of the rich do not know how many times higher than the commoners in terms of educational opportunities, nutrition, medical care, environmental and other conditions. This is not at all a matter of personal will. Reincarnation is a technical job.

The pursuit of status disparities, inequality, is human nature, is social. Only when a stable social class exists will the social order not collapse. It's just that the pyramid type that used to be admired is now the oval type—enough middle class, a small number of rich people, and a small number of poor people.

Jia Huan has always faced up to class, even the existence of class. For example, he is now in the ruling class of the Zhou Dynasty. He doesn't feel uncomfortable with it.

However, regardless of whether people are equal or not, whether the social system is fair or not, there is a bottom line to be observed: everyone should have the right to live normally!

Zheng Wenzhi was full of people. He deserves to die!

As a person with a modern university education, there is still a bottom line on this point, right and wrong.

Jia Huan slowly ate a piece of duck meat with chopsticks, and said quietly: "Zheng Wenzhi is the mastermind behind the scenes. He's going to die. ”

Zhen Li was slightly stunned. With the friendship between the Zhen family and the Jia family, shouldn't Jia Huan agree to his request? He took advantage of the situation to throw out the benefits that Zheng Jiafu gave up, and then everyone was happy? That's not how the script should be.

Zhen Li came back to his senses and said in surprise: "Ziyu has an old relationship with the Qiu family? ”

Jia Huan shook his head, "No." ”

Zhen Li was puzzled and said, "Then why can't you be accommodating?" The Zheng family is willing to give Ziyu 5,000 taels of silver as tea expenses, and is willing to give Shafutai 10,000 taels of silver as a thank you. 200,000 taels of salt were paid. ”

Jia Huan waved his hand, "Brother Li, let's not talk about it, okay?" "He will never persuade Mr. Sha to let go of Zheng Wenzhi! Not everything can be traded. He will never excuse or intercede for the murderer.

Seeing Jia Huan's resolute attitude, Zhen Li sighed depressedly, was silent for a while, and said, "Ziyu should know that my eldest sister is the crown princess." ”

Jia Huan nodded.

Under the bright candlelight, Zhen Li glanced at Jia Huan and said softly: "Zheng Yuanjian is one of the prince's financial resources. I say that, do you understand? ”

"What?" With Jia Huan's calm heart, he suddenly heard the news, and stood up in surprise.

Zhen Li said very vaguely, but what does Jia Huan not know? He made up for a while in Yangzhou the knowledge of the salt method

Salt traders often trade illicit salt for profit. According to the data obtained by Huaiyang Branch, the profit of private salt is more than two million taels of silver a year. Excluding the cost of dotting, the big salt merchant can make a profit of 500,000 taels a year.

The eldest daughter of the Zhen family is the crown princess, and the Zheng family is the source of the prince's wealth. What role does the Zhen family play in this? It must be an umbrella! According to the law of the Great Zhou, the crime of trafficking in illicit salt should be beheaded. And with the Zhen family's status in Jiangnan and Jinling, they have the qualifications to be a protective umbrella.

In fact, not to mention that the Zhen family's participation in the trafficking of illicit salt is a rebellion, Jia Huan is too lazy to be surprised. Anyway, the Zhen family will hang up in a few years. He was surprised that he had miscalculated.

At the end of August, he went to visit Zhen's house, and when he was deliberating about the crown princess, he calculated that the reason why Emperor Yongzhi wanted to abolish the crown prince may be because he subjectively disliked. With Emperor Yongzhi's skill, ability, and prestige, he can abolish the crown prince.

But now it seems that this is not the case.

Of course, being a prince requires money. But if you want money and don't hesitate to participate in the trafficking of illicit salt, this prince is too restless, right? What do you want to do with so much money? Raising armor and dead soldiers? Win people's hearts?

Death!

Jia Huan is now eager to be 108,000 miles away from the Zhen family. The prince actually died by himself! This IQ is too touching.

Zhen Li was very satisfied with Jia Huan's reaction, smiled, and drank the wine unhurriedly, waiting for Jia Huan to digest the information.

Jia Huan thought for a while and said, "Zheng Wenzhi's death sentence is nothing to talk about. I can write to Mr. Sha to explain the status of the Zheng family's general merchant. But the Zheng family must guarantee to pay 200,000 taels of silver in arrears."

Zhen Li looked at Jia Huan speechlessly. He could tell from Jia Huan's words that something was wrong. Co-authored, the Zheng family relied on the backstage of the prince behind them, and they didn't understand the situation at all!

Looking at this situation, Governor Sha planned to clean up with the Zheng family. And Zheng Yuanjian is still struggling with his son's affairs.

What is going on?

Zhen Li suddenly felt a little tired, and he was also a little dissatisfied with Jia Huan's stubbornness, but Jia Huan took a step back, he couldn't force it anymore, and said, "Ziyu, let's stop here tonight." Let's get together another day. ”

Jia Huan nodded. There was a silence in the boat.

Zhen Li ordered the painting boat to send Jia Huan to Wuding Bridge. Jia Huan got up and said, "Thank you, big brother, for your hospitality tonight." With that, he said goodbye and left.

When Jia Huan and the others went ashore, the starlight was sprinkled, and the songs and dances in the Qinhuai River moved. Jia Huan walked home, pondering in his heart.

The prince's money bag, Jia Huan didn't want Mr. Sha to touch it. There is no need for this. In the struggle for imperial power, there is no need for Mr. Sha to participate.

In addition, Jia Huan also wants to plant a thorn between him and the Zhen family. cut off the head of the Zheng family's son, and the Zheng family's thoughts can be imagined. And the Zheng family is the downline of the Zhen family. He wanted to stay away from the Zhen family. The farther away you are, the safer you are.

In the past few years, we must slowly adjust the relationship between the Jia family and the Zhen family, so as not to be implicated in the future. is similar to helping the Zhen family transfer property, after he dominates Jiafu, he will definitely not let him do it. (To be continued.) )
