The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 113
Jia Min offended Luo Hanlin, that is, the last time he went to test Jia Min and left in disappointment.

However, that time, Jia Min was actually not to blame.

First of all, it was Luo Hanlin himself who posted to Jia's residence.The purpose of going was not pure, basically as a Taoist priest, he went to Xingshi to inquire about his crimes.

His mistake was only that he was misled by the news that Baoyu and Jia Rong were walking.

Perhaps it was this reason that led him to retaliate against the Jia family.

If this is the case, it can only show that this Luo Hanlin is too narrow-minded.

Another reason might be related to the news that Jia Min heard from Shen Bingyi last time.

That time, Shen Bingyi told him that Niu Jizong and the others invited Luo Hanlin to drink and discussed the transfer of the bus and carriage.

There is a possibility that this move was done by Luo Hanlin and Niu Jizong in partnership.

In terms of motivation, both of them have this motivation.

Niu Jizong and the others started this project because they listened to Jia Min's suggestion, but they were stuck in the end.From their perspective and values, it is entirely possible to attribute this to Jia Min.Taking advantage of the disagreement between Jia Min and the Jia family at this time, stepping on Jia Min is also in line with their style.

After they got Jia Min's idea, they could squeeze Jia Min out, and then do this kind of thing, which is also logically reasonable.

As for Luo Hanlin, in addition to venting his personal anger, the teaching of Hanyu Pinyin may also pose a potential threat to the interests of his academy.

If Hanyu Pinyin is popularized, there will be a conflict of interest with him, whether it is in terms of teaching performance or the source of students.If Jia Min does this well, Ludong Academy's reputation as the No. [-] Academy in the Imperial Capital may be shaken.

In fact, it is still too early to shake the foundation of Ludong Academy.If it was really because of this reason, Luo Hanlin really worried too much.

Ludong Academy has a history of at least several decades.Starting from Luo Hanlin's father's generation, he was relatively famous in the imperial capital.

The reason why the Luo family has more energy in the officialdom today is actually related to the Ludong Academy.

The students of Ludong Academy, from the enlightenment to the imperial examination, are almost one-stop.Over the past few years, the imperial examination scores of Ludong Academy students have been really good.Many officials who have already served as officials can be regarded as students of the Luo family.

In this era, teachers are very respected. The so-called "heaven, earth, monarch, relatives and teachers" are second only to parents.Therefore, the influence of the Luo family on these officials should not be underestimated.

It can be said that Ludong Academy is for cultivating talents for imperial examinations, taking the route of elite education.

From the bottom of his heart, Jia Min looked down on people who were born in the imperial examination.I think they are just some bookworms, full of officials.What I have learned is only the art of power struggle in the officialdom.

In his opinion, these people are actually similar to silverfish in society.With them, there is nothing good to see.On the contrary, without them, the burden on the society and the people may be lighter.

Be it Liujiazhuang's enlightenment education or Jia's ethnology, Jia Min's plan is to follow the route of civilian education, that is, to teach practical skills and cultivate professional talents.

This point, not only does not conflict with the elite education of Ludong Academy, but is also a useful supplement to it.

However, this is just Jia Min's opinion, and Luo Hanlin doesn't necessarily think so.

After going around for a long time, I actually went back to the starting point.Or the difference of the times, the difference of concept.

Jiang Xiucai's nonsense at Fang Xiucai's house was probably part of a conspiracy.

This conspiracy may be Luo Hanlin's single act, or it may be a collusion with Niu Jizong and Liu Fang.But definitely not Jiang Xiucai's personal behavior.

So far, Jia Min has drawn three conclusions.

The first one: He has Luo Hanlin as his enemy.

The second one: It is extremely suspected that there are enemies of the small group of Niu Jizong and Liu Fang.

The third one: It is very likely that Luo Hanlin and Niu Jizong's gang will be together as an enemy of this force.

As far as individuals are concerned, Jia Min is sure to kill any of them in an instant.

The problem is their background, that is, their family power.

Behind Niu Jizong and others are the four princes' mansions.It is an equal existence with the Jia Mansion.In terms of current strength, there is still a hint of the Gaojia Mansion.This is also an important reason why they dared to overshadow the Jia family in the bus and carriage business this time.

Behind Luo Hanlin is naturally the Luo family and their official relationship network.The strength is even stronger than that of Niu Jizong.A very important factor is that the power of the Luo family is different from that of Niu Jizong.

Almost all of Niu Jizong's influence is open and on the bright side.Many of the power of the Luo family are hidden.You don't even know who belongs to them, maybe from somewhere, someone will come out and bite you.

Niu Jizong's power belongs to the Xungui Group, while the Luo Family's power belongs to the Civil Service Group.The two major forces that constitute the two pillars of the imperial power have become Jia Min's enemies, and this matter will be troublesome.

Although the teammates of Jia's scumbags who had just settled down temporarily compromised, they were not reconciled to failure, and were always waiting to seize the opportunity to counterattack.

There is also an emperor above, who inexplicably issued an imperial decree, like a sledgehammer, hanging above his head.You never know when it will come crashing down.

It seems that he has achieved a staged victory in the confrontation with Jia's house, but in fact he has fallen into a bigger vortex.

A sense of powerlessness rose in his heart, and Jia Min felt extremely depressed.

People in this world, can you do something serious and stop fighting all day long?

How did I travel to this ghostly place?This time travel was a complete failure.

At the beginning of the hour, Jia Mu's upper room began to become lively.Eight carriages lined up in the yard.The maids and women are loading things into the car.

That thing can be called a whole.

There are quilts, chairs, tea sets, footrests, hand warmers, tableware, mosquito nets, incense, toiletries... It's almost like moving.

When everything was ready, Mother Jia got into the car, and Lai Da drove the car himself, and drove out of the house.

Except for Jia Zheng, a salaryman who went to work, Jia She, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Jia Zhen, Wang Xifeng and other high-level officials all came to say goodbye in person.

Among them, Youshi also accompanied Jiamu to visit Yeduju together.

It was rumored that Mother Jia had already made up her mind about the matter of the bus and carriage, and now she went to Yeduju to relax.

However, only these high-level officials knew that it was the ancestor himself who went to Yeduju to invite Jia Min back.

The ancestors all went to relax. It seems that there should be a solution to the problem of the big hole in the bus and carriage.

The servants who had a stake in the fate of Jia's mansion breathed a sigh of relief, and their expressions gradually relaxed.

However, only the masters and sons are still upset.

Can the old ancestor invite that brother Ming back?

Of course, among these depressed masters, Baoyu is the king of depression.

It's really uncomfortable to pretend to be sick.Now Baoyu really realized this.

A person who is obviously not sick, but pretends to be sick, is actually more uncomfortable than really sick.

It's okay to pretend to be a little sick, you can go out for a walk and relax around.When there is nothing to do, kissing in the name of eating rouge, and molesting female staff members will not be delayed.

However, now he is pretending to be stupid, not only can't take care of himself at all, even opening his eyes to look at the world around him makes him feel like a thief.He had to hear that there was indeed no one nearby before he dared to open his eyes and take a look.

The girl is gone, the ancestor is gone, and Jia Rong, the co-accused who was involved in troubles, has been hiding these days.

Good gay friends Liu Xianglian, Jiang Yuhan and Qin Zhong came for a visit, but never showed up again. I don't know if they got on good terms with others again.

Miss Lin has been living in the wild for the past few days. I don't know if she spends all day discussing poetry with that goddamn fourth brother Min.

That muddy, rough, and muddy fourth son Min who is covered in copper-smelling mud, now he has to seduce sister Lin with his crooked poems all day long.This Emperor Wenchang is also true, I don't know which string was wrong, but he just gave the poem to Min Lao Si, a vulgar and boring man.

Hearing the noise of carriages and horses going away, and listening carefully to the fact that there was no movement around him, Baoyu opened his eyes, but there was no one around.

So he got off the ground, walked to the window, and looked in the direction of the ancestor's upper room.While watching, thinking about the scene where the old ancestor arrived at Yeduju, where the girls were singing and dancing, he couldn't help being a little stunned.

So he resented Min Laosi, and scolded Min Lao Si countless times in his heart.

After scolding Min's fourth son, I felt a lot better.As soon as he turned around, Xiren opened his mouth wide and stood at the door, looking at him in surprise, obviously stupid.

Baoyu saw that the secret was broken by the attacker, so he didn't bother to pretend anymore. He rushed over and covered Xiren's mouth to prevent her from speaking out.

Xiren couldn't help but struggled, and the two became entangled.Baoyu took the opportunity to attack people personally.

Xiren struggled away, but Baoyu hugged him tightly.

"You don't take good care of your illness, you just think about bullying me all day."

Seeing Xiren's shy face, Baoyu couldn't hold back for a long time, and was ready to move.

"Isn't this to block your mouth and prevent you from speaking out?"

"If you gag, you can gag, and if you are good at it, it is the same. Why do you have to use your mouth to gag? If people see it, I will be ashamed to face others."

"Good sister, it's not the first time. There will be such a coincidence, and people will see it by accident."

In fact, Xiren and Baoyu had been close by skin for a long time.Even Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang have heard about this.They also believed that Xiren would be Baoyu's concubine in the future.Therefore, a tacit attitude was adopted towards the relationship between Baoyu and Xiren.

Baoyu pretended to be sick and depressed for a long time, and today he is clean and no one is around. If he has this opportunity, how can he let it go.Xiren also knew that sooner or later he would be Baoyu's man, so he half pushed and half agreed, so he obeyed.

Baoyu begged at first not to let Xiren tell the story of her pretending to be sick, Xiren naturally agreed.Seeing the attacker like this, Baoyu naturally forgot about it.Thinking of Miss Lin in my heart, I actually yelled out, causing the attacker to shed two lines of tears.
