The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 471 Change of ideas
"Who's looking for me?"

Hearing the clear and familiar yet unfamiliar voice, Jia Baoyu felt dazed.

He took two steps at a time and came to the door. He leaned close to the crack of the door and said shyly, "It's me!"

Seeing the round face peeking out from the crack of the door, Qingwen was startled and took a step back, saying in a repulsive manner, "What do you want to see me for?"

Qingwen was not completely without any intentions. As early as when she entered the mansion, Zhang Yunyi had already told her to go to Rongguo Mansion less often.

It was not just directed at her. Although Zhang Yun逸 never said it explicitly, time reveals a person's true character. Qingwen had already seen that he was quite calculative in certain aspects.

This can be seen from the strict access control of Jiaomen and Huifangyuan.

Qingwen had no complaints about Zhang Yun逸's strict defense.

On the contrary, for maids and concubines who had no autonomy and might even be given away at will, it was a rare sense of security.

She wanted to turn around and leave, but she was also worried that there might be something fishy going on.

Jia Baoyu had been pampered for a long time and was quite narcissistic. He was completely unaware of Qingwen's rejection and instead thought that she was just timid.

For a moment, he even forgot the purpose of calling her here, and asked with a licked face: "Are you...are you doing well?"

Qingwen frowned and said coldly, "Very good! Don't worry about it! If you have something to say, just say it. If not, I'm leaving!"

After that, he turned around and left.

"No, no, no!" Jia Baoyu hurriedly called out, "Open the door for me! I can't get through to this old woman!"

"My master has ordered me not to open this door. Please don't embarrass us, Master Bao!"

Jia Baoyu had no choice but to settle for the next best thing: "Then...then please help me call Brother Yi over, and I will talk to him!"

After hearing this request, Qingwen couldn't help but feel troubled.

She hesitated for a moment and evaded the question, "There are many people coming up ahead, and I'm afraid I can't get away. Instead of asking me to make a trip for this matter, you might as well go through the front door by yourself."

Hearing that many people had arrived, Jia Baoyu hurriedly asked, "By the way! Has Rong's daughter-in-law arrived? Is she in the garden, or with the old lady and the others in the backyard?"

Qingwen spat, "Pah! If you want to find Xiaorong's grandmother, go to Xiaorong's house yourself. Why are you making a scene in our house?"

"Girl, how come you are so rude now?"

"Rude?" Qingwen turned around and said, "You didn't go through the front door, but broke into the backyard and complained first! Aren't you the one who is rude?"

Jia Baoyu was speechless for a moment, and then he tried to make up his mind: "How can you say I broke in by force? I have always been like this before..."

"Before? How long ago?" Qingwen sneered, "Second Master Bao, have you forgotten whose mansion this is now?"

Still not satisfied, she said angrily, "Second Master Bao, don't forget that I have always been like this! Didn't the Second Madam drive me away because she thought I was sharp-tongued and causing trouble? The Master didn't say anything, so why are you complaining?"

Qingwen was not making up stories. Since she wanted to find Zhang Yunyi to take the blame, Mrs. Wang couldn't openly say that it was the Peach Blossom Evil, so she found an excuse for someone who was sharp-tongued and causing trouble.

Jia Baoyu's face flushed red, and he didn't know how to refute for a moment, so he could only say angrily: "It's true... it's true that those who are close to vermilion will be red, and those who are close to ink will be black!"

Qingwen was too lazy to argue with him anymore. She turned to the old woman guarding the door and complained, "Just send her away. I still have a lot of things to do in my room!"

After that, he left without looking back.

Seeing Qingwen so determined, Jia Baoyu became even more furious. He reached out and grabbed the jade in front of his chest and was about to smash it.

Seeing this, Xiren didn't care about being kicked anymore. She quickly got up from the ground, grabbed him and said, "My Lord! The old lady and the mistress are not here, please stop making trouble!"

Jia Baoyu then remembered that his mother Jia and Mrs. Wang were not around, and no one saw the jade fall. He could only withdraw his hand in dismay, beating his chest and stamping his feet, saying, "This is really outrageous! I have to go and ask!" "My lord, please be quiet!" Xiren said earnestly, "If it weren't for Master Yi who forgave the past, I don't know what would have happened to you! Now even the old lady and the mistress are accompanying you to be careful. If they knew you were fooling around here, I'm afraid they wouldn't let you off easily!"

After hearing this, Jia Baoyu became even more furious.

He had hoped so much that Jia Zheng left. It would be good if Zhang Yun逸 could help Jia Zheng keep his official position.

But not only did he fail to keep his official position, he was dismissed from office. After returning, he no longer had to work in the government office. He had nothing to do. How could he live a good life?
It would be better not to help...

He was a loving father and a filial son, and he thought that if he could have a falling out with Zhang Yun逸, it would be worth it even if he had to endure some punishment.

He also remembered that Lin Daiyu's cold and hostile attitude towards him was also caused by him. For a moment, all new and old grudges were aroused, and he ran to the front yard with all his might.

Xiren secretly thought that something was wrong and quickly said to the maid at the corner gate, "Quick! Go and inform the old lady and the mistress, I'll go to the front to block them!"

After saying that, he quickly chased after him.

"Hey! Hey!" The old woman responded, looked in the direction of Jia Baoyu and Xiren, glanced at the back door, and ran out in the opposite direction.

We will not discuss for now how she rushed out of the back door of Ningguo Mansion to report to Lady Jia.

Xiren endured the pain in her stomach and hurried on, but she was still a little late. When she arrived at the corner gate of Ning Mansion, she saw Jia Baoyu angrily asking Xue Pan who came to congratulate him, "Where is Zhang Yunyi?"

Looking at the endless stream of guests, Xiren felt her scalp tingling. She was afraid that things would get out of hand, so she could only secretly wink at Xue Pan.

But Xue Pan was staring into the distance in a daze. Not only did he not notice her expression, he also turned a deaf ear to Jia Baoyu's questions.

Jia Baoyu also realized that Xue Pan didn't notice him, so he nudged him with his shoulder and continued to ask, "I asked you where Zhang Yunyi is and why are you in a daze?"

Xue Pan turned his head and glanced at him, impatiently saying: "The prince is here, Brother Yi is greeting him, but he has no time to deal with you!"

Jia Baoyu is just relying on the doting of his grandmother Jia and Mrs. Wang to bully others. The reason why he dares to challenge Zhang Yun逸 is that he feels he has nothing to fear.

Hearing that Zhang Yun逸 was accompanying the prince, Jia Baoyu's momentum weakened a little and he did not dare to rush to argue with him.

Then he followed Xue Pan's gaze.

"Hey!" His eyes immediately lit up when he saw it, and he couldn't help but exclaimed, "Whose son is this? He is so handsome!"

"Ha!" Xue Pan sneered, "What young master? Look at your eyesight, this is Jiang Yuhan, the official of Zhongshun Palace!"

Jia Baoyu had also heard of Qi Guan's name, and could not help but look him up and down. Seeing that he had a feminine appearance, charming and gentle, he could not help but feel close to him.

Xue Pan saw that he had stopped moving, so he turned his head and looked at him. Seeing that he looked silly, he smiled and said, "How is it? Is your reputation well-deserved?"

Jia Baoyu nodded his head like a chick eating rice and asked, "Could he also come to congratulate me?"

"He's just an actor, how can he be qualified?" Xue Pan said disapprovingly, "I just heard the prince talking to Brother Yi, it seems that it's because of some new play for the Wanshou Festival that they asked this Qiguan to come and learn!"

Xue Pan rubbed his hands and said, "This Qi Guan is the prince's forbidden delicacy, hidden in the mansion and rarely seen outside. This time he has to stay and learn for a while. A while ago, I asked Brother Yi to help introduce him. I didn't expect that I could get him without any effort!"

"Learn opera?" Jia Baoyu showed surprise, "Could it be that Tang Bohu is attracted to Qiuxiang?"

"seems like it……"

Jia Baoyu took out the folding fan from his arms, put on the posture of a handsome young man, waved the folding fan in his hand, and walked towards Jiang Yuhan with ease.

As for the purpose of this trip, he had already thrown it to Java.
