Red Mansion Jia Enhou

If a person does not suffer, how can he make progress?

Although Lin Ruhai did not take Jia Min's conversation with him that night seriously, he was taken seriously.

Grandmother Jia asked the maid beside her about Lin Ruhai's situation after his return.

The old woman behaved timidly, looking as if she wanted to say something but didn't dare to, which made Grandmother Jia a little annoyed.

"I can eat people?"

The old woman remained silent.

"Just say it!"

There was a flash of anxiety in the old woman's eyes, and under the urging of Lady Jia, she had no choice but to speak.

"Madam, my uncle didn't reply."

The old woman knelt down, and Lady Jia clenched her hands unconsciously. She rarely did not lose her temper, so she just asked the old woman to leave.

The old woman left with a worried heart.

Green gauze cabinet,
Jia Baoyu was reading by lamplight at night. He didn't believe that his feelings were wrong.

But if he collected the books, he would be wrong.

It seems that everything about the scholar described in the book is arranged by God, but upon closer examination, how could it be arranged by God?
A young lady from a respectable family would be surrounded by three or five maids and old women when she went out.

How many of them would easily let a scholar see their appearance?

Jia Baoyu threw what he was holding on the table in frustration. Xiren, who was accompanying him, saw this and walked over.

"Why are you suddenly unhappy?"

"But you encounter something you don't understand?"

Xiren walked slowly to Jia Baoyu, took out a candle from a drawer on the side, and relit the candle in front of Jia Baoyu that had burned out.

All the movements were done in one go, and their faces were roasted red under the light of the candles.

Jia Baoyu's brows were furrowed.

"Xiren, do you think there is really no such thing as a marriage destined by heaven?"

Jia Baoyu asked the same old question. During this period of time, he had been thinking about this question, unable to figure out all the memories that appeared in his mind and the feelings he had when he first met Daiyu. It felt as if Daiyu was supposed to be his.

Jia Baoyu, who didn't understand, asked several people in a row, but they all gave him vague answers, which made Jia Baoyu very distressed.

Until now, the problem has not been solved and is looming as a nightmare for Jia Baoyu.

"Why do you keep thinking about this?"

"So what if it's fate?"

"Both sides could not withstand the sufferings of the world, and finally separated!"

Xiren then took the kettle and filled Jia Baoyu's bowl with water.

Jia Baoyu's brows were still furrowed as he thought deeply about Xiren's words.

For a moment, he even showed signs of being crazy, which made Xiren's face show worry.

"How can fate not withstand the sufferings of the world and finally separate us?"

Jia Baoyu was muttering about Xiren's words. Looking at Jia Baoyu's expression, Xiren suddenly felt like talking to Jia Baoyu about these things.

"Second Master!"

Xiren gently shook Jia Baoyu who was sitting on the chair, and tears flowed from Jia Baoyu's eyes.

"Sister Lin must have suffered too much in her dream, so she doesn't want to be with him anymore in reality."

Jia Baoyu suddenly felt enlightened and wiped away the tears from his eyes. At the same time, he suddenly wanted to see Daiyu.

Thinking about this, Jia Baoyu stood up from his chair and stumbled towards the courtyard where Lin Ruhai and his family of three were temporarily staying.

Xiren kept chasing after Jia Baoyu.

"Second Master, it's getting dark, where are you going?"

Xiren wanted to stop it, but couldn't.

"Sister Lin!"

Jia Baoyu's voice, with a hint of resentment, sounded outside the courtyard of Lin Ruhai and Jia Min.

The old woman who was sleeping against the courtyard gate was startled awake.

Jia Baoyu was standing outside the closed door, and the old woman rubbed her eyes with her hands.

It is indeed Jia Baoyu.

The old woman was shocked.

Mr. Bao, what is he doing here in the middle of the night?
"Second Master Bao?"

In order to make sure she was not mistaken, the old woman called out Jia Baoyu's name.

Jia Baoyu turned his head, tears in his eyes.

The old woman frowned and stood up from the ground.

"Second Master, why are you here outside my courtyard in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"

The old woman kindly stepped forward.

"I want to find Sister Lin!"

As Jia Baoyu spoke to the old woman, her brows furrowed even more tightly.

"My cousin is already asleep. If you want to play with her, you can come tomorrow!"

Jia Baoyu was silent.

"I want to see you now!"

After being silent for a long time, Jia Baoyu finally spoke.

"I have something to ask you, can you let me see you tonight?"

The lights in Jia Min and Lin Ruhai's room were still on, and the old woman shook her head at Jia Baoyu.

"It's late at night, it's not appropriate for you to be here!"

"Second Master, let's go!"

The old woman stretched out her hand to ask Jia Baoyu to leave, but there was a hint of reluctance in Jia Baoyu's eyes.

"Mammy, please help me inform them!"

"I'll leave after I finish asking what I want to ask!"

Anxiety appeared on Jia Baoyu's face, and the old woman's face was full of helplessness.

"My aunt, uncle and cousin are all asleep, why are you asking?"

"Second Master, you should listen to your mother-in-law. Come back tomorrow!"

Faced with the old women who were guarding Lin Ruhai and Jia Min, Jia Baoyu wanted to break in, but his arms and legs were too weak and he had no choice but to retreat.

The old woman looked at Jia Baoyu with helplessness on her face.

This second master must be an idiot. How many people would open the door when he visits in the middle of the night?
Jia She had a very exciting night. After meeting Princess Jincheng, he met Suo Tu again.

Unlike Princess Jincheng, Suotu came without any notice.

Looking at Suotu, who was dressed in black and rushed in like a shadow.

Jia She, who was not asleep yet, was awakened instantly, and the dagger that Tatar always carried with him was pressed against Suotu's neck.

"who are you?"

There was a cold flash in Jia She's eyes, and Suotu took off the mask on his face, revealing an extremely young face.

"I've heard of Lord Rong's name for a long time, but I didn't expect him to be so alert!"

"who are you?"

Jia She, who remained calm despite the praise, continued to ask questions.

The man in black did not answer.

Jia She's face was full of seriousness.

What do you mean by not answering?
Jia She cut deeper with the knife, but Suo Tu, who didn't expect Jia She to really dare to use the knife, finally felt fear and moved his neck away from Jia She's knife.

He covered his neck with his hands and felt a slight warmth, shock flashed in Sotu's eyes.

"Marquis Rong is really serious!"

"Your Excellency raided my camp, how can I not do something real?"

Jia She held a knife in his hand and assumed an attacking posture.

Suotu was afraid of attracting attention from outsiders, so he quickly admitted his identity.

"Marquis Rong has always wanted to see me. I came here uninvited, and yet Marquis Rong treats me like this!"

Suotu looked at Jia She, blaming him for what he had done.

Jia She frowned.

As soon as Suo Tu came, Jia She guessed his identity.

In the entire Tatar world, apart from him who wanted to rebel, no one would dare to come to his tent.

"Come here uninvited and you are called a thief. I didn't kill you with my knife. I am grateful to God for his mercy."

"Lord Rong, put down the knife!"

Thinking that Jia She was really going to chop off his own Suotu, he began to back down for fear of something bad happening.

"Tell me, what is your purpose here?"

"Did Lord Rong forget that I wanted to form an alliance with Great Chu?"

"The old Khan has been unjust to the Great Chu, and I also feel that this is too much. As long as the Great Chu is willing to support me, I am willing to send troops to defeat the Later Jin, hand it over to the Great Chu, and cede the land of Mobei." "This will be used to atone for the crimes committed by the Tatars!"

Suotu's high-sounding words rang out, and Jia She remained silent.

"Lord Rong, put down the knife!"

Suotu’s eyes were always on Jia She’s knife. He was a mean man who bullied the weak and feared the strong!
Jia She had determined Suo Tu's nature in his mind.

Jia She snorted coldly and put away the knife in his hand.

Suotu felt relieved.

"Tartar and Great Chu have always been friendly countries."

"Why would Lord Rong attack me like this?"

Suo Tu started to talk bad again, and Jia She drew his sword again. The sword was illuminated by the moonlight and flashed a cold light.

Seeing the knife, Suotu wilted again.

Seeing Suotu's ugly look, Jia She closed the knife in his hand.

"What does Lord Rong think?"

"I have already given the most generous conditions, as long as Rong Hou and Da Chu are willing."

"I will immediately launch a rebellion and replace the old Khan."

The Sotu tribe has always had this intention, but their power is not as strong as that of the old Tatar Khan, so they can only suppress it.

And now the old Tatar Khan has sent most of his forces to Liaodong.

The Sotu tribe no longer had to suppress their wolfish ambitions and could boldly launch an attack on the Tatar Khan.

Jia She was silent.

Anxiety appeared on Suotu's face.

“But the conditions offered by my tribe are not enough?”

Jia She couldn't help laughing. If you dare to kill the old Tatar Khan who treated you well today, you will dare to wield the sword to attack the Great Chu tomorrow.

Do you think your conditions are sufficient?

"I am tired. If you have anything to say, please wait until tomorrow morning."

As he spoke, Jia She, holding the knife in his hand, lay back on the bed in the tent.

Looking at Jia She's back, murderous intent flashed in Suotu's eyes, but he didn't dare to act rashly, so he could only leave in anger.

Jia She turned around, looked at the open window of the tent, closed it himself, and went to bed with his clothes on.

As the sun rose, Jia She slowly opened his eyes. As an envoy of the Great Chu, he was not allowed to wander around the Tatar king's tent without someone to lead him.

Jia She slowly ate the breakfast provided by the Tatars. When Jia She had almost finished the mutton soup in the bowl and the bread in his hand, the Tatar Khan sent Wuzhener.

Listening to the Tatar Khan saying the same things as yesterday, a hint of boredom flashed in Jia She's eyes.

Speaking of the past, the conditions are still the same as yesterday.

This Tatar Khan is not sincere.

Little did they know that this was the only offer the Tatar Khan could make.

He was the one who initiated the conquest of Liaodong, and if he suffered a disastrous defeat, he would gain nothing. Facing the Tatar tribes, he would have no choice but to die.

Jia She stood up.

"If the Khan doesn't understand what I'm saying, I have nothing to say."

"Marquis Rong!"

Jia She left again, and the Tatar Khan was completely in despair.

Wuzhen'er also chased out and appeared in front of Jia She, facing the man who had been with him since the beginning.

A look of appreciation for talent flashed in Jia She's eyes.

"The Great Chu never thought of making peace with the Tatars from the beginning!"

Jia She looked at Wu Zheng'er without saying a word, and a moment of silence passed.

Jia She continued walking forward.

Wu Zheng'er followed Jia She and kept asking questions.

"Since Great Chu has never thought of making peace, why did they send you, Marquis Rong, here? Is it really just for negotiations, or do they have other plans?"

Wu Zhenger followed Jia She's footsteps, and Jia She stopped.

"What do you think, General?"

"The Great Chu has other intentions."

Jia She forced a smile on his face but remained silent.

"Is it Sotu or Princess Jincheng?"

"What kind of benefits did they give to Da Chu to make Da Chu help them!"

Jia She paused again, you know too much.
Jia She looked at the burly man in front of him again.

"Do you know what it means to be innocent but guilty of possessing a treasure?"

Jia She spoke Chinese to Wuzhen'er, who had been trained by the Tatar Khan since childhood.

Wuzhan'er was proficient in Chinese and also understood the history of Da Chu.

Jia She paused for a moment and then spoke.

"The Later Jin is a villain, and the Tatar Khan is also a villain."

"The Chu Kingdom trusted the Tatars so much, but the Tatar Khan sent troops to attack the Chu Kingdom and was killed at Humen."

"Now that the Jin have been punished, it is time for the Tatars to take their turn."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

Jia She stared at Wuzhen'er with sharp eyes, and Wuzhen'er gagged because of what Jia She said.

"This Tatar Khan can be anyone, but it can't be this old Khan in front of us!"

Jia She left.

Wuzhener returned to the Tatar Khan's tent in disappointment and looked at the Tatar Khan in front of him.

Wuzhener collapsed on his knees and began to cry.

"Sweat!"

Realizing something, he put his hand on Wuzhener's head.

"What did Jia She say?"

Wuzhener raised her head, tears filling her eyes.

"Send the troops, Great Khan!"

"The Great Chu has never thought of making peace with the Tatars. They sent Jia She here just to test the Tatars's true intentions."

Wuzhener could not bring himself to ask the Tatar Khan to commit suicide, so he only advised him to send troops to attack Da Chu.

The Tatar Khan's hands began to tremble.

Is it so easy to defeat the Great Chu?

"Sweat!"

Wuzhener shouted to the Tatar Khan in front of him.

The Tatar Khan's eyes rested on Wuzhener for a long time without saying a word.

"That's probably not what Lord Rong said!"

After a long time, the Tatar Khan looked at Wuzhener and spoke.

After being exposed, Wuzhener couldn't help but continue crying.

"Under such conditions, Da Chu still refuses to agree, which can only mean that he wants to kill me!"

"It was because I was the first to disobey the Khan that the Chu State targeted the Tatars."

"Sweat!"

Wuzhener interrupted the Tatar Khan from saying anything else.

"Does Jia She have anything else to say?"

Wu Zhenger remained silent.

"I know everything, please leave!"

The Tatar Khan asked Uzan to retreat.

Knowing what his fate would be, the Tatar Khan wanted to lead the army in person.

Rather than dying in disgrace, it is better to die on the battlefield, leaving a way for his descendants to survive and leaving the Tatars with a fighting spirit.

"Give the order, we Tatars will never be humiliated. This Khan will go to war with the Great Chu on behalf of Tatars!"

The Tatar Khan drew the scimitar from his waist, and the people in his tent trembled when they heard what the Tatar Khan said.

The Tatars are also going to go to war with the Chu.

Jia She returned from the Tatar tribe.

The Tatar Khan personally selected the Suotu tribe to join him in the war against the Chu State.

Suotu was a little anxious. The Great Chu side hadn't reached an agreement yet, so how could he really go to war?

The war between the two sides was about to break out, and the Tatar troops, led by the Tatar Khan, appeared outside the Yumen Pass.

Jia She, Niu Ben and other guards of Yumen Pass stood on the city wall, looking down at the Tatar Khan who was already a hero in his twilight years. (End of this chapter)
