Love in the Red Chamber

Chapter 47 The Wolf of the West Chamber 【For further reading】

The snow outside Shenjing City has not disappeared.

The carriage drove out of Shenjing City, and there was a vast expanse of white on both sides of the road.Behind the carriage is the tall and majestic Deshengmen Gate Tower, which is covered with snow and is majestic and beautiful.

Car, all the way north.

The cold wind from the northwest attacked from the cracks in the curtains of the carriage like ice spears and sharp arrows.

The wind in the north of the city is more violent than the wind in the city.

Qin Zhong in the car tightened the thick felt hood on his body, he did not have such a luxury.After all, you get what you pay for, and the felt tent that Jia Mu gave him really kept him warm, and it saved him a little bit of guilt.

Qin Zhong thought to himself, this time he must stay at home and wait for the rainy solar terms to pass before coming out, otherwise he will suffer too much.

The Rain Festival is the beginning of the rainy season, and it is also a signal that the point of direct sunlight is gradually approaching the equator from the southern hemisphere.When the rain begins, the number and intensity of sunshine in the northern hemisphere increase, and the temperature rises rapidly. The warm and humid air from the ocean becomes active, and gradually advances northward to meet the cold air, forming rainfall.

It's a pity that the rain in the north is like a cold winter, warm and cold at the same time, and the snow fluctuates.

Emperor Longtai and King Zhongshun are also preparing for the rainy season.

In any dynasty, the solar term is an extremely important signal. The rain in the fourth year of Longtai will be on the 29th of the first month.

When the rain starts, swan geese come, and the vegetation sprouts.

The south should be full of spring at this time, and a hundred flowers are in full bloom.It is time to start planning preparations for clearing ditches and draining water, intertillage and weeding, and seed selection and germination in southern farmland.

At this time, Emperor Longtai had another problem in his mind.

The total number of refugees in the four shelters outside Shenjing City has exceeded [-], and there are countless refugees living outside.Now that the weather has warmed up, it's time to start the work of repatriation.

The [-] refugees, if they are a little careless, there will be great shocks.

What annoyed Emperor Longtai even more was that there was still a group of hooligans from the south going to Beijing.

"Sent back to the south of the Yangtze River, there is no land to grow, and he is still a hooligan." Emperor Longtai threw out the booklet in his hand, "I think they will not even let go of the money for sending the hooligans back to their hometown."

King Zhongshun picked up the brochure and read it, and said: "The ones who went to Beijing this time should be traitors who pretend to be donated."

Emperor Longtai sneered, "I'm afraid someone will order you from behind!"

Emperor Longtai would not have been so angry if only hooligans had gone to Beijing. What was angry was that some people had ordered the people to pretend to be hooligans to receive relief.Even if there is no one behind the scenes, it is a big mistake for the magistrates to fail to track down the hooligans.

King Zhongshun replied: "My brother will definitely investigate."

When Emperor Longtai heard King Zhongshun's response, his complexion became better, and he said: "I am the only one who can be trusted, but Lao Wuyi."

King Zhongshun looked up at his brother who was above him, bowed and knelt down and said, "I'm the sage."

"Get up quickly! It's just you and my brother here, there's no need to act like this." Seeing King Zhongshun get up, Emperor Longtai remembered something again, and asked, "Have you been to Qin's house with Xu Yuanyi?"

King Zhongshun's mouth twitched secretly, he scolded Xu Yuanyi in his heart, and replied: "I went there a few days ago, and I haven't seen Qin Jingqing."

"Oh? It's because you didn't come to the door with gifts, so you were turned away?" Emperor Longtai asked curiously.

King Zhongshun shook his head with a wry smile, "It's not true, it's just because Qin Jingqing went to Rongguo Mansion Jia's Yi School to study recently, so he only returned to Qin's house today."

"No wonder I haven't seen Xu Yuanyi enter the palace these few days, and thought he had suddenly changed his gender." Emperor Longtai sighed with emotion.

In fact, he didn't pay attention to the methods that can increase production, but Xu Yuanyi didn't even have an experiment result, so he came to Qin Jingqing to ask for a reward.

Is it empty talk?
As an emperor, how could he have a good face.

Emperor Longtai said: "Old Wu Minger will go to the Qin family with Xu Yuanyi again. If the production can be increased, the boy's benefits will naturally be indispensable."

King Zhongshun lowered his head at this moment, and reported back: "The younger brother and Xu Yuanyi went to Qinghe and never saw Qin Jingqing, but...Xu Yuanyi went to Jia's to find him alone afterward, I don't know what they talked about. As soon as Xu Yuanyi returned to the mansion, he demolished the garden of his family, and even demolished two houses, so that people dug the cellar, and he didn't answer when the family asked why."

"Is...is he insane?" Emperor Longtai asked in surprise.

King Zhongshun didn't know how to reply, because he didn't know either.

Emperor Longtai frowned and asked: "Didn't you ask anyone to inquire about the situation that day?"

King Zhongshun replied: "Someone saw Xu Yuanyi saluting Qin Jingqing on Ningrong Street, at that time everyone thought they recognized the wrong person. I'm afraid that kid said something shocking to Xu Yuanyi."

Emperor Longtai remembered that since he met Qin Zhong last year, that kid really dared to talk about anything because of his young age and lack of fame.

He pondered for a moment, then summoned the inner eunuch to "send someone to Xu's house to have a look", and then thought about when he would go to Qin's house and listen to Qin Jingqing's 'shocking' remarks.

Let's say that the garden of the Xu family has been devastated, all the flowers and grass have been uprooted, and several wintersweet, peach, cherry, and apricot trees have also been cut down.

Not to mention the house in the garden, the roof has already been removed, and the south wall is gone.

The servants of the Xu family felt distressed, but none of them dared to persuade them.

Just because Xu Xingrui, Xu Yuanyi's nephew, persuaded him twice, he was scolded bloody.

Xu Yuanyi even thought about the glass windows in Xu Xingrui's yard, because the glass windows were more light-transmitting and more heat-retaining than painted paper windows.

"Uncle Yi, it's not that my nephew is unwilling. It's just that this glass window is so precious, how could it be so ruined?" Xu Xingrui wanted to cry but had no tears.

He only earned a few hundred taels for others in Qintianjian, and he had to contribute half of it to the prison, and other things, the rest was only a few hundred taels.This is all the glass he bought with his hard-earned money, and now it is going to be used to build some kind of greenhouse.

Xu Xingrui wanted to vomit blood!

"Uncle Yi, I'm afraid you'll be deceived. Who else in the world knows more about corn than our Xu family?"

Xu Yuanyi insisted on removing Xu Xingrui's glass window, "I just asked if you would give it? Don't say it's useless."

Xu Xingrui hated that liar now.

my money!

money!

My glass!
When the news spread to the palace, Emperor Longtai hesitated for a long time with a complex expression, before he choked out a sentence: "Old Minister Xu, never disappoints!"

At this time, the instigator of the incident had just got off the carriage.

Qin Zhong looked around the door like a thief, found a young man, and asked, "Has the master ever come back?"

Hearing the boy said that the master went home and changed his clothes before going out to the banquet, this guy was even more delighted, and the tongue in his mouth was jumping with excitement.

Qin Zhong hissed lightly, and quietly entered the mansion.He walked to the hanging flower door lightly, and looked into the yard, only to see two little maids walking around in the yard.

He pursed his lips and whistled softly.A servant girl turned her head to look, saw him, and wanted to go to the West Wing to announce.

Qin Zhong hastily shouted softly, made a gesture of silence, summoned the servant girl and asked in a low voice: "Sister, what are you doing now?"

The servant girl replied: "Miss has been waiting for the uncle to come home. The servant girl just went to deliver the food, and the miss will only eat later."

"Don't make a sound!"

Qin Zhong gave an order and slowly went to the west wing.I could only hear Qin Keqing's sighing voice from inside, "Go and see Baozhu again, why hasn't Jingqing come yet?"

Ruizhu said softly: "Miss, don't worry, I just went to ask the boy not long ago, and I haven't seen the carriage coming outside yet."

But Baozhu laughed and said, "I'd better go and ask, otherwise Miss will not be in the mood to eat today."

Hearing the voice, Qin Zhong hurriedly shrank behind the door, and only asked the maid next to him to explain to Bao Zhu who had just left the room.

He tiptoed into the west wing room, and saw Qin Keqing sitting at the round table in the room, looking devoid of appetite.

ow~~
Qin Zhong was howling in his heart, and even though the maids in the room were not allowed to remind him, he tiptoed towards Miaoman.
