Red House Shoufu

Chapter 245 Jia Rong's Worries

No matter what happened to Wang Ren, he was also Wang Xifeng's own brother and Jia Lian's uncle.Wang Ziteng deliberately chose to tell this matter today, it must have a special purpose.

Lin Shu didn't beat around the bush, and asked bluntly, "What did Wang Ziteng want to do by doing this? Did he say anything else?"

Jia Lian was stunned for a moment, and he shook his head: "I just talked about this, and didn't mention anything else..."

After being reminded by Lin Shu, Jia Lian also came to his senses.With Wang Ziteng's city, it is impossible to pick today to talk about this matter for no reason.Strangely enough, nothing else was mentioned.

Lin Shu asked: "Cousin Lian, Brother Wang Ren is the only male heir of the Wang family. If you were the head of the Wang family, would you throw Wang Ren to the battlefield?"

Jia Lian shook his head, there was only a single seedling left in the family's incense, how could he be allowed to mess around outside, it was really uncontrollable, marrying him a wife and taking a concubine to lock him up at home and have a child was better than throwing him in front of the army and putting him at risk.

I didn't think of this before and I didn't think it was a big deal. Now that I think about it, Wang Ziteng's approach is really weird.

"Second Uncle, is it possible, Uncle Wang..."

Jia Rong seemed a little embarrassed to speak, and stopped in the middle of the sentence.

"Tell me, is there anyone here?"

Under Jia Lian's urging, Jia Rong smiled wryly and said, "Nephew means, is Uncle Wang outside... Maybe he also has an illegitimate child."

puff!
Jia Lian spit out the tea as soon as he took a sip, no wonder Jia Rong couldn't tell, because his father, Jia Zhen, was staying with the pregnant Aunt Bai in Zhuangzi outside the city at this time.

But shock is shock, this possibility is also possible.

Lin Shu shook his head: "Although there is a possibility, let's not talk about whether it is true or not. When it is found out, it is estimated that Wang Ren has already set off for the Hexi Army."

Although brother-in-law is nothing, but Wang Xifeng is such a real brother, so he can't just watch him die.

Wang Ziteng's visit today really caught Jia Lian by surprise.No matter what Wang Ziteng's idea is, Jia Lian still has to find a way to solve this matter.

Ugh!
Jia Lian sighed helplessly and poured another cup of tea.He said to the two: "Forget it, tomorrow I will ask Wang Ren about the situation and see what he thinks. If you haven't thought of a solution before the army sets off, let my father tell the friends in Hexi whether there is any credit or not." Don’t mention it, just save this guy’s life.”

"That's the only way. After all, Wang Ren belongs to the Wang family. No matter whether Wang Ziteng, the head of the Wang family, is plotting or simply showing loyalty to His Majesty, it is not easy for outsiders to intervene."

Lin Shu reminded Jia Lian: "Cousin Lian has to say hello to sister-in-law in advance, don't let sister-in-law become a breakthrough point for Wang Ziteng."

When Wang Xifeng was mentioned, Jia Lian slapped his thigh: "Yes, I'll go tell your sister-in-law right now, she is entertaining guests in the Rongxi Hall, in case the Wang family say something irrelevant to your sister-in-law..."

Jia Lian turned to Jia Rong furiously and said, "Brother Rong entertains you, Uncle Lin, I'll go first."

After finishing speaking, he bowed his hands to Lin Shu, and hurried out of the study door before Jia Rong could respond.

"Nephew first ask someone to make a pot of good tea for uncle..."

Jia Rong called the maid and told her to bring some refreshments, and then chatted with Lin Shu about the latest gossip about the capital.

Compared with Lin Shu's daily life at two o'clock and one line, although Jia Rong has temporarily suspended his post in the Imperial Army, he still has a lot of time to wander around the capital.

With restaurants, teahouses, theaters, and Jia Rong's many friends, the information he heard was not as small as that collected by Wang Lun, the first spy of the Lin family.

"Uncle, do you think it is possible for the King of Dongping County to have the intention to do that rebellious thing? The four kings of the southeast, the north, and the west are the ones who are missing the Palace of the King of Dongping. Will the palace take action against the King of Dongping County again?"

The people in the capital like to discuss the affairs of the imperial court the most, no matter whether the news they hear is true or not, they always like to talk about it a few times, and Jia Rong is no exception.

After hearing Jia Rong's question, Lin Shu replied with a smile, "Brother Rong also cares about such things?"

Jia Rong chuckled, and said in a low voice: "It's not that my nephew cares about such trivial matters, but I heard people say in the teahouse a few days ago that the four kings, eight princes and twelve princes are all thorns in His Majesty's eyes. After the four kings , that is Hachiko..."

"absurd!"

Lin Shu interrupted Jia Rong's words and reprimanded him, "You've also got married, why are you so ignorant of the world? Do you believe such rumors?"

"Uncle, don't be angry, my nephew certainly doesn't believe these rumors."

Jia Rong hurriedly explained to Lin Shu: "It's just that the four kings have a very close relationship with Prince Yizhong's mansion. Now Xining County... Now that Qi Wenhua has raised the rebellion flag in the name of Prince Yizhong, my nephew is worried that His Majesty will treat Prince Yizhong. The mansion. The nephew's daughter-in-law is the daughter of the old prince..."

Lin Shu suddenly realized that this was the reason.

He comforted: "Don't worry, I don't know what will happen to Prince Yizhong in the end, but your daughter-in-law will definitely live in peace for the rest of her life. Do a good job in the Imperial Army, and avoid going to Goulan tiles, and don't let anyone take advantage of you."

Compared to Jia Zhen, who was bold enough to do anything, Jia Rong was still cautious. After hearing Lin Shu's reminder, she cupped her hands and replied, "Uncle, don't worry, my nephew understands."

Lin Shu asked Jia Jing again, and Jia Rong said, "Grandfather has been busy with ethnology recently. Third Uncle Huan and Brother Lang are going to end next spring. Grandfather is giving them extra lessons recently. Even Second Uncle Bao is not uncommon. Grandfather called to teach."

Speaking of Jia Jing, Jia Rong's attitude became very solemn.Lin Shu could see that Jia Jing, who had not returned to Ningguo Mansion for a short time, had a great influence on Jia Rong.And Jia Rong also respected his grandfather very much, and there was a lot of dependence and admiration in his words.

"Grandfather said that if you don't cut jade, you can't make it. If you don't study, you don't know. Although my nephew doesn't need to take the imperial examination, my grandfather still asks my nephew to study more. Every three days, I have to go to the study with Brother Qiang to listen to the teachings."

Lin Shu nodded, and he encouraged Jia Rong: "Uncle Jing is right. Learning is the first thing to do in life, and reading is the foundation of learning. If you read a lot of books, you will understand a lot of things naturally. You have to be alone in the end. Yes, read wisely, and your future road will be more stable."

Knowing what is good or bad, Jia Rong got up and bowed deeply: "Thank you uncle for your teaching, nephew will remember it!"

Lin Shu helped Jia Rong up and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry about Prince Yizhong's residence, just live with your wife."

Without Jia Zhen picking up the ashes, and with Jia Jing's teaching, Jia Rong's temperament is quite normal, and she does not become the second Jia Zhen like in the original book.

While lamenting the importance of family education in his heart, Lin Shu chatted with Jia Rong for a long time.It wasn't until the servants reported that Wang Qi and his son had arrived that they greeted them with Jia Rong.

……

Rongguo Mansion invited many relatives and old friends today, although there were many scruples among the nobles because of the affairs of the four kings, Yuan Chun was quite favored in the palace, and Rongguo Mansion gradually prospered again.

The number of guests invited today is not only larger than when the Rongguo Mansion held a banquet a few years ago, but the status of the guests is also more distinguished.

The Rongxi Hall was full, and after Daiyu greeted Jia Shishi and other elders, Yingchun took her to her small courtyard to play with her sisters.
