Jia Zhen, Uncle of the Red House

　　In the Ning'an Hall, Baoqin greeted Jia Zhen with a dignified face, and said, "Master, the niangniang ordered to come down, to play a safe ceremony for three days from the first to the third day of Qingxuguan, sing and offer sacrifices, and ask Master Zhen to lead it. The gentlemen are kneeling incense and worshiping Buddha. And the Dragon Boat Festival's boxing ceremony is also rewarded." His own little eunuch carried several things.

　　"Master, yours is a high-class palace fan with two handles, two strings of red musk beads, two ends of a phoenix tail, a hibiscus mat with a collar, a fragrant ruyi, and an agate pillow. Grandma and grandma also have fans with the same number of beads. My son, there are two more yarns, two loaves, two sachets, and two spindle medicines. The other concubines only have fans with the same number of pearls, and the others are gone."

　　Jia Zhen picked up a bunch of red musk beads and stuffed it into her arms, "The goddess has been bothered. Does the goddess have anything else to explain?"

　　Holding Qin squinted to the left and right.

　　You Shi and other wise men took Boxing behind him.There was no one else in the hall.

　　Baoqin suddenly knelt down in front of Jia Zhen and begged, "Master, please save the concubine!"

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "But there are rumors in the palace that the emperor has neglected the concubine, is he going to deal with the Jia family?"

　　Baoqin nodded, "Yes, my lord! You don't know, those people in the palace are the most eye-catching and tend to be flamboyant. Seeing that the emperor has not been to Fengzao Palace for a month or two, there are strange words, and it is also the honor of the moment. The affairs of the second master of the house and the second master of Bao are all over the city, and they are even more terrifying. The empress has no relatives in the palace, and has no one to rely on. Even if she is anxious, she can't imagine it. When I have a chance, send me to ask you for help. The situation in the palace is already in danger, and when I leave the Fengzao Palace, even a little eunuch doesn’t regard the empress as a master.”

　　Jia Zhen frowned. It stands to reason that Dai Quan should not be unaware of the current situation.There must be a problem here.His eyes are deep, it is time to find some of his own people in the palace, no matter how reliable an ally is, there will be a day of betrayal.

　　"Who is the most favored right now?" Jia Zhen asked.

　　Baoqin said: "Of course it's Concubine Wu, the emperor is with her eight or nine out of ten days, and one day is given to the empress."

　　Wu Guifei?Her father Wu Tianyou has been very happy recently. Among those who impeach Jia Zheng, there is his shadow.

　　Jia Zhen sneered: "The foundation is unstable, be careful when you climb high and fall heavy." He said to Baoqin: "Tell the empress, you don't need to worry too much. Right now the emperor is relying on me, and a little suppression is just because of this, and it's nothing to worry about. Then Concubine Wu, it's just because of the Seventh Prince that she has some ideas. It's still early to see if it can be done!"

　　After Baoqin heard it, she raised her brows and said with a smile, "The servant also persuades the empress to relax, knowing that you will definitely find a way, Master."

　　Thinking of Dai Quan, Jia Zhen had to persuade a few words gently, "The lady's body is still too small. If you don't come out with things like this in the palace, I don't know. It can be seen that others are always unreliable."

　　Baoqin understood, bowed his head and said, "My servant understands."

　　After sending them off, Jia Zhen came inside.

　　You said with a smile: "Just now, the concubine discussed with my sisters, and also went to Qingxuguan for a walk. Although my home is good, but after staying for a long time, I am tired and panic. It's good to see the quiet scenery elsewhere!"

　　Jia Zhen said: "Qingxu Guan is not a quiet place. A group of Taoist priests have no heart to help the world, and they all devote themselves to fame and fortune, which is very annoying."

　　At this time, You Shi gave Qingwen a wink.

　　The third sister Qingwen stepped forward and took Jia Zhen's hand, and said coquettishly: "Master, you will allow us to see and see, I heard that there is a lot of fun! Please, master!"

　　"Okay, okay!" Jia Zhen couldn't stand their begging the most, "First ask Huang An to check the Qingxu Temple inside and out, drive out the Taoists, clean the building, and hang up the curtains. An idler is not allowed to enter the temple. There are guards on all sides, and nothing can go wrong!"

　　"Okay!" Qingwen stood on tiptoe and quickly touched Jia Zhen's face.

　　Besides, Mrs. Wang came back from the East Mansion, and when she arrived in the old lady's room, she happened to meet the eunuch Xia in the palace and passed on the will of the empress.

　　Mrs. Wang sighed: "This kind of thing happened in the mansion, just by rushing."

　　Then she went to ask how Jia Zhen was, and the people who came back said that they would all go there. The old lady pondered for a moment, and then said, "Since this is the case, let's go too, it's good to be sincere!"

　　Sister Feng took the opportunity to smile and said: "They are cool there, and there are buildings on both sides. These days are also very boring, so it's better to relax. If I'm at home, I can't watch it comfortably."

　　Li Wan joked: "You have such a big belly, and you are still running around. You are really an uneasy master."

　　Sister Feng didn't look at her, she just looked around and said with her arms crossed, "Everyone will go tomorrow, but don't let the fun down."

　　Xiangyun is a lively person, and naturally he entices his sisters to go there.Daiyu has nothing to do with it. Baochai's body and heat didn't want to go, but Jia Zhen, who had just heard about it, would also go.

　　In the early morning of the first day of the new year, Jia Zhen rode first, You Shi, Keqing, Yindie, Keren, Miaoyu, Qingwen, Sanjie, Xiangling, Erjie, Yinping, Xieluan, Peifeng, and Youshi. The girls Caifeng, Qinger, Zixiao, Bihen, Yindie's girls Zuoer, Huier, the lovely girl Liuer, Suier, the third sister's girl Qiuwen, Tanyun, Qingwen's girl Sheyue , Qiuxiang, Xiangling's girls Qianxue, Zhener, Miaoyu's girls Xinlian, Xinyi, Keqing's girls Ruizhu, Ruiyun, Xiluan's girls Huixiang, Peifeng's girls Jiahui, and Jin Chuan Er, Yuchuaner, Meiren, Zhuer, Laner, Yiyi, Linlin and other maids in the house, as well as Jia Shu, Jia Wan, Jia Yu, Jia Bing, Jia Qing, Jia Qin and several children have wet nurses Holding, or cramming four or five together, they rode in a dozen or so vehicles, guarded by Li Wan and Jia Qing on both sides, no gongs and drums were used, and no deacon was used, so they just walked through the streets. Then came to the Qingxu view.

　　A group of Yingying and Yanyan got out of the car, and when they saw the gatekeeper with clairvoyance, clairvoyant ears, and local land, all the clay statues of the city god in this realm, they all felt novel. Several children ran around as soon as they landed, and Jia Wan still wanted to climb. Go up and touch Shunfeng's long ears.

　　Jia Zhen hugged her in her arms, and the little girl kept making a fuss: "Daddy, touch, Wan'er wants to touch."

　　Jia Zhen couldn't resist, but she really let her stand on her shoulders, and she smiled contentedly while holding the mud tire with her small hands.

　　There were also Jia Shu and Jia Yu looking at them, Jia Zhen glared at them, but picked up the smaller Jia Bing and Jia Qing one by one and let them touch them.Only Jia Qin was still young and slept in the arms of her wet nurse.

　　You Shi stepped forward and pulled Jia Shu, Ke Qing also protected Jia Ju, and looked at Jia Zhen with resentful eyes.

　　Jia Zhen just turned a blind eye, and when she met the judge who came to greet her, she led everyone to the back hall to watch the ceremony.

　　Not long after, the bells and drums sounded outside, and it was the old lady of the Rongfu who came.

　　Jia Zhen and You Shi went out to greet him.

　　I saw that the deacon with the flag plate outside the mountain gate filled the road, the sedan and horse carriages blocked the traffic, the old lady in front was waiting in front of the view, and the maid and old lady who was accompanying her were still at the gate of the Rong Mansion, and Wu overwhelmingly took up a street of cars.

　　"What a big battle!"

　　You helped the old lady get off the sedan chair, and Madam Wang and Aunt Xue also accompanied her.Jia Zhen cupped her hands and walked past Madam Wang.

　　Mrs. Wang flashed a little, but there happened to be a little Taoist priest of twelve or thirteen years old, holding a scissors, taking care of cutting wax flowers everywhere, and running out when she wanted to, not wanting to bump her head into her arms.Unable to stand, she fell onto Jia Zhen.

　　Jia Zhen squeezed her hand and helped her up. "Auntie be careful!" He led the rambunctious little Taoist out and handed it over to the judge.

　　Aunt Xue gave Jia Zhen a meaningful look, then turned to ask Madam Wang how?Madam Wang was confused for a while, holding her hands and not speaking.

　　When he came back, Jia Zhen saw Ping'er supporting Sister Feng, and whispered, "I don't care about some children."

　　Sister Feng spat: "You don't have a conscience, you haven't looked at me for so long!"

　　Jia Zhen wanted to speak, when Li Wansanchun came over, followed by Daiyu and Baochai who were holding hands, "You are here too?"

　　Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, "Sister Bao and I are chasing after my brother."

　　There was tenderness in Baochai's eyes.

　　Baoyu's voice sounded inappropriately in his ears.I was following the attacker and revolving around her!

　　"Why is he here? Don't you want to study with your uncle?" Jia Zhen asked in surprise. Could it be that Jia Zheng was just talking about it?

　　Daiyu said with a smile, "The old lady specially asked for an hour's leave for him, and she will have to make up for it when she returns."

　　"No wonder, I thought it was such a nonsense!" I don't know if he was talking about Baoyu or the old lady?

Chapter [-] Qingxu View Golden Unicorn

　　The old man was still in front of the old lady and talked about the various things of Mr. Xianrong back then, which made the old lady reminisce about the past and sighed at the present. She couldn't help tearing up and holding Baoyu's hand, "It's so hard for this child! Forcing him to study, I was terrified." But Baoyu still hated the kiss he told himself just now, but he didn't have a good face to show him.

　　The old man became refined, turned around in a pretentious manner, and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

　　I saw Fengjie smiled and said: "Grandpa Zhang, don't you change our girl's name Fu'er. You have such a big face in the past, and sent me to ask for yellow satin! If you don't give it to you, I'm afraid You can't get over your old face." Zhang Daoshi laughed and said: "Look, I'm blinded, I didn't see my grandma here, and I don't want to say thank you. The talisman is already there, and it was supposed to be sent the day before yesterday, so I don't expect her to come. If you do good deeds, forget about it, and stay in front of the Buddha. Wait for me to fetch it." After speaking, he ran to the main hall, fetched the talisman, and asked Jia Zhen to go to the front hall for a salute.

　　During the viewing, the altar was opened, the flags were raised, the ritual ceremony was built to greet the gods, the judge stepped on the gang, chanted scriptures and worshipped the repentance, and the men from the two houses of Rongning and Jia Cong were all present.It's just that Jia Zhen was really impatient to watch these tricks, so she taught Jia Lian to watch it casually, turned around and left quietly.

　　But only when he walked to the porch, Daoist Zhang followed up with interest, holding a tea tray in his hand, and wearing a big red python satin sutra, he went to the front and said with a smile: "Everyone knows that the grandfather and his family are here to watch the ceremony. There is nothing to congratulate, this is the magic weapon for each of them to preach, and they are all willing to serve as a gift of congratulations. The grandfather doesn’t care about it, just keep it for the brothers and sisters.”

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said: "You just took out the plate and bluffed me, thinking that you are coming with me." When he looked inside the plate, he saw that there were also golden huang and jade jue, or something went well, or Every year, they are safe and sound. They are all made of pearls and jewels, jade-cut and gold-engraved, and there are thirty or fifty pieces in total.

　　Shouldn't this old Taoist take Baoyu's jade to show off, and then in order to curry favor, he scavenged so many so-called magical instruments to please Rongguofu?The world has changed today, have you changed to please him?　　

　　Taoist Zhang said with a smile: "My grandfather has visited Gu Xiaoguan many times, and thanks to the grandfather's blessing, the days are still prosperous. I can't stop it if I have a little respect. Otherwise, they see me as meager, and it doesn't look like I came from a family."

　　"If that's the case, am I going to lose face if I don't accept you?" Jia Zhen carefully selected and fiddled with it. Sure enough, there was a unicorn with red gold and green dots. She took it in her arms and asked Timur to take the plate, "Take it back and give it to me. Brother Shu and the others, let Keqing keep the rest." Then he said to Daoshi Zhang, "Do you still go to the old lady to serve?"

　　Taoist Zhang postponed: "I've seen it before, so it's inconvenient to disturb it again. And I have to restrain the crowd, so it's not good to disturb the family members. The master has already arranged a clean room, which is near the downstairs, surrounded by trees. Surrounded by shade, it was also the place where Old Master Rong rested. Would you like me to take him there now?"

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "Don't be busy, wait for the show in front of God, and I can go by myself later."

　　Here, the old lady and You led the people of Rongning and Ningfu for a tour around, before going upstairs.The old lady, Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue, You and Keqing were all in the main building. Sister Feng, Li Wan and other sisters occupied the east building. Keren Yindie Qingwen and others went to the west building.

　　Jia Zhen went to the main building to report the show, "The first book, "The Story of the White Snake," is the story of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty. The second book? It’s okay. Gods and Buddhas want to do this.” Asking for the third book, Jia Zhen said, “The third book is “Out of the Five Passes”.” Jia’s mother said nothing.Jia Zhen withdrew and went outside to prepare the application form, burn the money and food, and start the show.

　　After doing all this, Jia Zhen remembered what was in her arms, walked down the east building, saw Miaoyu coming down, and held her hand: "Today, you have changed your daughter's clothes, you are beautiful, and your temperament is like an orchid. It's the real you. How am I, Jia Zhenxing!"

　　"Bah!" Miaoyu threw off his hand and spat: "You removed the nunnery of Shuicui'an, what am I doing aunt? Go back and replace the plaque! Otherwise, I'll ignore you."

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if there is a layman in front of the Buddha and Bodhisattva, but Jia Zhen can't live without a wonderful jade in his heart."

　　"Humph!" Miaoyu gave him a sideways look, "I'm talking nonsense, you have so many concubines, what am I? It's just bullying me and being helpless."

　　Jia Zhen was about to go forward and hug her, but she avoided her, "I will be your support in the future!"

　　Miaoyu chuckled, "You're kidding me, it's yours, it's too late to regret it! Don't get in my way, I'm going to sit at the frown's treasure hairpin."

　　Jia Zhen stepped forward and held her again, walking downstairs.Miaoyu followed him obediently, covering her face with a fan ashamed, but her little hand held Jia Zhen tightly.

　　Upstairs, Daiyu saw it and spat, "I knew it would be like this."

　　Baochai teased: "Froe is jealous?"

　　Daiyu was annoyed: "Sister Bao, aren't you angry?"

　　Baochai hugged her, "Why are you angry? My brother is already a prince at a young age. He is both heroic and talented, but how many girls dream of a husband? Now that my brother is favoring me, it is my blessing."

　　Daiyu spat: "Sister Bao, you have been poisoned by him, and there is no cure."

　　Baochai leaned over and whispered, "You still talk about me, what about you? Who secretly compiled my brother's poems?"

　　Daiyu blushed and sighed, "Who else can I marry besides him in this life? It's really cheap for him."

　　Baochai covered his mouth and smiled.Fortunately, their voices were so low that even Xiang Yun, who was next to them, could not hear them.

　　When they came upstairs, Miaoyu pulled out her hand and sat beside Daiyu.

　　The three of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they didn't like watching dramas, so they chatted on their own.Leave Jia Zhen aside.

　　Jia Zhen was not angry either, she sat in a corner by herself, with Daiyu on her right and the wall on her left.

　　Seeing their smiling faces, he just watched from the side, took Daiyu's hand silently, and took a string of red musk beads from his arms around her wrist.When this pearl was given in Yuanchun, Baochai's boxing ceremony was the same as that of Baoyu. In addition, the saying that Jinyu was a good match made others wonder.Jia Zhen was careful and put it on her specially.

　　Whether it is a good relationship between Jin Yu and Mu Shi, it is impossible to do anything in front of Jia Zhen, and it will disappear from now on.

　　Daiyu looked at the red musk string, suddenly blushed, and wanted to take it off and return it to him.Jia Zhen hurriedly grabbed her hand to stop it.

　　Daiyu quickly broke free, lowered her head and said shyly, "Brother, they are all watching! What is it like to be dragging and pulling with me? Hurry up, hurry up, don't sit here!"

　　Only then did Jia Zhen look around, and everyone on the other side was laughing, and she didn't know if it was a joke or something else?As for Sister Feng, Li Wan, Xiangyun and others, they didn't pay attention.

　　The old lady upstairs had an angry look on her face, and she didn't even want to watch the play.Mrs. Wang said with a smile, "Brother Zhen and Daiyu have always had a good relationship, so they can't be regarded as ordinary brothers and sisters. Besides, Daiyu is a girl who has a lot of thoughts. Thanks to Brother Zhen, she has often accompany her, whether it's food or clothing. Yes, it has always been for the best. I used to have frequent coughs and my body and bones were not good, but now I am better. It is all thanks to the strength of Brother Zhen. They have suffered together, even if they overstepped the rules a little, it would be fine. There's no need to worry too much, madam. Sister, don't you think?"

　　Aunt Xue's mind was in a mess, and she suddenly heard Madam Wang's question, and hurriedly replied, "That's right!"

　　The old lady just realized: "Yes, I forgot about this festival. It was all caused by Brother Zhen."

　　Only to hear Mrs. Wang laughed again: "Daiyu is getting older every day. Although it will take two years for her to get married, she has to prepare to look for it." Seeing the old lady's expression as usual, she jokingly said, "It is such a talent for Daiyu's appearance. , where is the general prince worthy of the prince? After all, we have a limited circle, why don't we entrust this matter to Brother Zhen? He has seen so many young heroes, I am afraid that such as Brother Zhen, it will be difficult to find. "

　　The old lady pondered for a moment, she originally intended to let Baoyu marry Daiyu, to have a kiss on top of another, but the two really couldn't get along, so she put out her mind.So she turned her head and said to You: "Go and talk to Brother Zhen, as long as the door is opposite, pay attention no matter what, and you mustn't wrong my Yu'er."

　　You thought that what Mrs. Wang said was very true, but she was always worried. "Don't worry, old lady, she will definitely find a Ruyi man she likes for Sister Daiyu."

　　Ke Qing quietly looked at Baoyu who was in a daze.
