Spoilers for The Red Mansion, Daiyu’s mentality is broken

After Ni Er withdrew, Jia Huan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Jia Huan never expected that something like this would happen.

After King Qin came to power, how should he choose? Where to go from here?

He and the King of Qin had no friendship at all, and even became enemies.

King Qin tried to win over him at first, but he rejected him.

Although he is the cheap brother-in-law of King Qin, with the ambition of King Qin, he will definitely not regard himself as one of his own.

And he controls the Red Flame Army. The Red Flame Army is the strongest army in the world. How could King Qin not be afraid of him?
The King of Qin's accession to the throne was inherently unfair, and he must have been thinking of getting rid of himself quickly.

Jia Huan guessed that next, the King of Qin might order him to go to Beijing to report on his duties and take the opportunity to get rid of him.

But where should I go?
If you obey and enter the capital, you will definitely die.

If you stay in Jiangnan, you can protect yourself.

But if one fails, he will be labeled as a rebel and a traitor!
At that time, the entire Jia family will suffer.

Of course, Jia Huan actually doesn't care much about the entire Jia family.

And Jia Huan was not optimistic about King Qin either.

For the sake of the throne, King Qin colluded with foreigners and completely lost his bottom line. It was bound to be difficult for the scholar-bureaucrats to accept him.

What's more, how could the Jin Kingdom's wolfish ambition be dismissed so easily?
Thinking of this, Jia Huan has decided to make peace with the King of Qin for the time being, wait and see what happens, and then make a decision based on the situation.

The news of Tianqing's change gradually spread.

The entire Red Flame Army learned the news, and the soldiers had different reactions.

Some were filled with indignation, some were worried, and some were cheering.

After the deputy general Zhou Tong learned the news, he couldn't help but came to the door with murderous intent and said loudly: "General, why don't we order all our troops and horses, kill the general and go back, and King Qin will protect him?"

Jia Huan glanced at Zhou Tong and asked: "Now that King Qin has ascended the throne as emperor, the late emperor and the supreme emperor have been killed."

"Which kind of king are you working for? What kind of frame are you protecting?"

Zhou Tong glared and said, "The King of Qin colluded with foreigners and killed his relatives. He is really a beast! How can he be the emperor of Great Xia?"

"General, why don't you lead my Red Flame Army to the capital and kill King Qin to avenge the late emperor and the Supreme Emperor! As for the throne, the general can take it for himself!"

At the end of the sentence, Zhou Tong's eyes began to shine.

If Jia Huan really becomes the emperor, he will at least become a general.

Hearing this, Jia Huan glared at Zhou Tong and said, "Shut up! From now on, don't say anything about having no king, no father, and lawlessness! If you dare to do it again, you will be punished by military law!"

Zhou Tong said dissatisfiedly: "General, don't you still regard me as one of your own?"

"If the emperor is right, we will naturally be loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and fight bravely to kill the enemy in order to repay the emperor!"

"Now that the emperor is immoral, why should we imitate Yue Fei's foolish loyalty? General, don't you want to be the emperor?"

Jia Huan took a deep look at Zhou Shen. He didn't expect this young man to be so direct and wild.

Can things like rebellion be discussed openly and in person?
Some things can only be done but not said.

However, Zhou Tong's nature is like this. If someone is recognized by him, he can pour out his heart and soul for the other person.

Thinking of this, Jia Huan couldn't help but said: "The Red Flame Army only has 10,000 soldiers and horses. Even if everyone is covered with iron, how many nails can they drive?"

"And once this kind of thing is started, there is no turning back. I will not lead my brothers to die in vain."

Zhou Tong said unconvinced: "But we not only have the Red Flame Army, but also the Hu Wei Army."

"Our fighting power is unrivaled in the world. Wherever we go, we are absolutely invincible and invincible!"

"And based on the general's reputation, as long as the flag of righteousness is held high, people who raise the flag will surely gather."

Jia Huan couldn't help but glance at Zhou Tong again. He had to say that this young man was still too naive.

Living in troubled times, strength is king, but good reputation is of no use?

Of course, if something can be accomplished, a good reputation is naturally useful and can be the icing on the cake.

But if it doesn't work out, a good reputation is just evidence of cowardice.

The so-called success of the king and defeat of the bandits is nothing more than this.

Jia Huan couldn't help but said: "Zhou Tong, what King Qin did broke the rules, and he may not be able to secure his position."

"Soon, the world will be in chaos. Let's just sit back and watch."

"Build walls high and store grain widely..."

Zhou Tong blurted out: "Slowly become king."

Jia Huan rolled her eyes at Zhou Tong, "If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute."

I don’t know that some things can only be done but not said.

After Zhou Tong left, Liu Xianglian and Qin Huaiyu came to the door soon.

These two people also persuaded Jia Huan to attack the capital and ascend the throne as emperor.

However, both of them were persuaded by Jia Huan.

From this point, Jia Huan suddenly began to understand Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin somewhat.

Sometimes, as long as you're in that position.

Even if you don’t want to make progress yourself, the people under you will push you to make progress.

Because as long as you make progress, everyone will follow you to take a step further, or even reach the sky in one step.

Song Taizu may not have known about this before he was given the yellow robe.

Jia Huan estimated that the guys under him might be able to get him a yellow robe someday.

Next, Haitian Island directly recruited troops without any scruples.

Jia Huan decided to recruit 50,000 soldiers and horses in a short period of time.

Although more soldiers can be recruited by opening it up, the quality is difficult to guarantee.

And Jia Huan cannot be trained in a short time.

And recruiting another 50,000 soldiers and horses is already the best that can be achieved in a short period of time.

Adding these 50,000 troops and horses, he had 70,000 troops and horses on hand.

Although it is still not much, at least it has the strength to protect itself.

A few days later, news came from the capital.

Ning Guo Mansion is safe and sound for the time being, but Ning Guo Mansion has been monitored by the imperial court.

Therefore, according to Jia Huan's instructions, Jia Huan's men secretly brought Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, Xue Baoqin, Qingwen and other girls, as well as the fourth lady Xichun, to Xiaoqingshan to settle down quietly.

And next, prepare to send them all to Haitian Island.

During this time, the entire capital was in complete chaos.

The person responsible for the security of the capital turned out to be the Jin Army.

All the generals in the Jingying camp were replaced by generals directly related to the King of Qin, and the Jingying camp was actually controlled by the Jin army.

In this way, is this Daxia the Daxia of Daxia or the Daxia of the Kingdom of Jin?
After the King of Qin ascended the throne, he changed his title to Emperor Zhongxing.

His ambition can be seen.

It’s just that the two words ZTE are evaluated by later generations.

It is the first time that someone has used these two words as his imperial title.

After Emperor Zhongxing ascended the throne, he issued several edicts that caused the entire capital to boil. The first edict is that from today on, all reforms in the entire Daxia will be abolished.

This edict caused a round of applause.

Of course, the people who are really applauded are all wealthy people from aristocratic families, and the common people only feel disappointed and sad.

But in this world, how many people care about the lives and lives of ordinary people?

The second edict made all Xia people furious.

The second edict actually directly ceded the northern Beiqishan and Ping'an Prefectures to the Jin Kingdom.

These two places (Ping'an Prefecture appears in the Red Mansion Book, and Beiqi Mountain is made up by the author) are the gateways to the north of Daxia.

Once these two places fall into the hands of the Jin Kingdom, the Jin Kingdom can invade Daxia at any time through these two places.

This edict can be described as a loss of power and humiliation to the country.

And the security of the entire capital was actually maintained by the Jin Army.

This made the people of Daxia feel chilled.

Is this newly enthroned Emperor Zhongxing the emperor of Daxia or the emperor of Jin?

Is this capital the capital of Daxia or the capital of the Kingdom of Jin?

If things continue like this, Daxia will no longer be Daxia.

Could it be that the newly enthroned Emperor Zhongxing has lost his mind? How could he issue such an edict that was so humiliating and humiliating to the country when he had just ascended the throne?
As everyone knows, Emperor Zhongxing was also secretly complaining at this time.

He had been preparing for the uprising for more than ten years.

However, Emperor Chongkang's position became more and more secure. If Emperor Chongkang hadn't made a mistake in the end and decided to change, Emperor Zhongxing would have felt that he would never have a chance in this life.

It wasn't until Emperor Chongkang initiated changes and Jia Huan was transferred out of the capital that Emperor Zhongxing found the only opportunity.

The girl in colorful clothes he met in the palace was actually a spy from the Kingdom of Jin.

It was at that time that he colluded with the Kingdom of Jin, promised the Kingdom of Jin certain conditions, and then attracted the Kingdom of Jin to allow him to successfully usurp the throne.

What Emperor Zhongxing originally wanted was to fight with Jin Guoxu, and then kick Jin Guo away after he ascended the throne.

But he didn't expect that it would be easier to invite gods than to send them away. After the Jin army successfully helped him usurp the throne, they stationed themselves in the capital and never left.

This was not the original agreement between the two parties. When the original agreement was made, the Kingdom of Jin lent troops to the King of Qin.

After capturing the capital and helping him ascend the throne, he will withdraw his troops.

However, when things came to pass, Jin Guo changed his mind.

Not only did he stay in the capital, he also took over the security of the capital and controlled Emperor Zhongxing.

The subsequent edicts issued by Emperor Zhongxing were actually not his original intention and were all issued under the coercion of the Jin Kingdom.

Emperor Zhongxing was really helpless, because now even his life and death were in the hands of the Jin people.

Even his harem no longer belongs to him alone.

……

When Jia Huan heard these two edicts, he couldn't help but sigh slightly.

When you see a fallen leaf, you know the world is about to fall.

It can be seen from these two edicts that the Zhongxing Emperor was controlled by the evil wolf of the Jin Kingdom.

From now on, the world will enter a troubled autumn. Daxia will be in chaos.

A month later, Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, Xue Baoqin, Qingwen, Xiaohong and other girls were taken to Haitian Island.

Even Jia Huan led the Red Flame Army to evacuate from Haizhou and officially stationed on Haitian Island.

Today, there are 70,000 troops on Haitian Island.

The 10,000 Red Flame Army and the 12,000 Guard Army are veterans, and the other 50,000 are new recruits.

Now, Haitian Island no longer allows unlimited immigration.

On the contrary, the number of scholars recruited has increased.

After the girls arrived at Haitian Island, Jia Huan went to greet them personally.

After the girls got off the boat, Jia Huan hurried forward to greet her and hugged Lin Daiyu into his arms.

Lin Daiyu's cheeks were red with embarrassment. While hugging Jia Huan, she whispered: "Husband, so many people are watching!"

Jia Huan smiled slightly and said, "Where is anyone watching? On this Haitian Island, you are the queen! No one dares to laugh at you."

Lin Daiyu couldn't help but secretly look around, only to find that the soldiers around them all turned their heads and pretended to look at the scenery. No one dared to take another look here.

Seeing this, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Next, Jia Huan hugged the other girls respectively, and then connected them to the largest Jia residence on Haitian Island.

The Jia's House here is the most luxurious house on the entire Haitian Island.

Of course, there is no way to compare it with Ningguo Mansion, let alone with Grand View Garden.

However, none of the girls have ever disliked the simplicity of this place. As long as they can stay with their husbands, even if the conditions are more miserable, what does it matter?
Jia Huan looked at Lin Daiyu and the other girls and said humbly: "Sister Lin, Sister Bao, Sister Qin, you are shocked."

Lin Daiyu looked at Jia Huan, pursed her lips and smiled: "My husband has arranged everything, how can we be so delicate?"

"On the other hand, it's my husband who is out there, wearing the stars and the moon, waiting for the day ahead, and that's the real hard work!"

Xue Baochai laughed and said, "We sisters are not afraid if we are together! Rujun doesn't have to worry about us."

The other women also spoke in agreement.

Qingwen patted her chest and said, "Third Master, please take care of yourself. As long as I, Qingwen, am here, I will not let anyone hurt my wife!"

Yuanyang chuckled and said: "Qingwen, stop shooting, be careful if you shoot again, the ball will explode."

Qingwen was so angry that she rushed over to catch the mandarin duck with all her teeth and claws.

He said: "Humph, Yuanyang, you still have the nerve to accuse me, but look at yourself, you are almost as big as a cow!"

Yuanyang blushed and said, "I don't know what you're talking about. It's nothing! You're talking about how much younger you are."

The two girls, Qingwen and Yuanyang, were bickering and playing with each other.

When Jia Huan saw this, he laughed, stepped forward, hugged the two women on the left and right, and separated them.

That night, Jia Huan stayed in Lin Daiyu's room.

The clouds cleared and the rain cleared, the two of them chatted.

Jia Huan couldn't help but said: "Sister Lin, I sent someone to the Lin Mansion to contact my father-in-law, saying that I could bring him to Haitian Island together."

"It was just rejected by my father-in-law. I have sent people to secretly protect my father-in-law. If the situation is critical, I will send people to secretly take him out of the city."

Lin Daiyu said softly: "Thank you husband for doing so many things. I also talked with my father before I came here."

"My father is unwilling to leave the capital. He said that he would be safe if he stayed in the capital. He is waiting for Mingjun to come to the capital."

……

Emperor Zhongxing continued to issue edicts one after another, fully opening up trade with the Jin Kingdom. Items that were previously prohibited from being sold to the Jin Kingdom, such as salt, iron, tea, etc., were now fully liberalized.

At the same time, Emperor Zhongxing made Jia Huan the Duke of Ning and ordered Jia Huan to come to Beijing to express his gratitude.

However, after the eunuch who delivered the order arrived at Haizhou, he discovered that General Jia had led the Red Flame Army to the sea to exterminate the Japanese pirates.

Where exactly he went is unknown.

Because Jia Huan could not be found and no one accepted the order, the imperial edict had to be temporarily sealed. (End of chapter)
