The filial son of the Red Mansion

All of a sudden, the ladies in the room tensed up.

Qin Keqing was the most nervous because she didn't know that the Wang family had already made arrangements. Wang Xifeng, on the other hand, was much calmer and just waited for Hubo to come in and tell her the result.

Xing, Li Wan, Aunt Zhao and others had different expressions, but they all pricked up their ears as if they wanted to hear the sounds outside.

"Great news, great news!" Amber came in after a while, smiling, "The Feng family sent someone to report that Master Xiaorong ranked first in the review."

There was a sudden silence in the room.

Not to mention Lady Jia, Qin Keqing, Mrs. Xing, Lady Wang and the others who were all in disbelief, even Wang Xifeng, who knew the truth already, was stunned.

After Jia's mother was stunned for a while, she hurriedly asked Hubo: "Where is the Feng family? Let them in for questioning."

Amber said, "The servant of the Feng family went to the second master to report the good news. It was Zhou Rui's wife who came to tell him the news."

Grandmother Jia kept muttering something like "Second Master, may your spirit appear, may our ancestors bless you" and said anxiously, "Give us a reward, all of you!"

Today, Jia Zheng was playing chess with a group of guests and heard the news. He hurriedly invited the Feng family's servants to come in and confirm it again and again.

"really?"

"My master was at the review site. He saw Master Xiaorong receive the gold belt and the goose-feather knife, so he sent me back to report the good news."

Jia Zheng couldn't believe his ears. He murmured, "Given a gold belt and a goose-feather knife?" The more he murmured, the happier he became. But he also had doubts in his heart.

Impossible, absolutely impossible. Doesn't he know what kind of person Rong Ge'er is?

"Isn't this a mistake?"

Feng family servant: "..."

The guests around him were already toasting and congratulating him, making Jia Zheng feel as if he were in a dream.

He asked his servants to reward the Feng family servants, feeling mixed emotions. He slowly sat back in his seat, thinking of Jia Rong's past misdeeds, and was very puzzled as to how he got first place.

The gentlemen who had been with him for many years also expressed their feelings.

Hu Silai sighed, "In previous years, I always heard that Master Zhen of the Ning Mansion taught Master Xiaorong a lesson. Now Master Xiaorong has finally become a talent. Master Zhen must be so happy if he is still alive."

Yes.

lesson!

Jia Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up.

All the boys in the two mansions have been beaten since childhood. There is a saying that if you don't beat them, you won't become a useful person. If you don't beat them, you will be beaten. If you don't learn archery and horse riding, you will be beaten. Zhu'er was beaten a lot in the past, so he entered school early and became a scholar. Rong'er was also beaten a lot, so he got the first place in the review now.

Jia Zheng frowned, and without even bothering to thank his ancestors for their spirits, he called someone to ask, "What is Baoyu doing?"

At this time, Baoyu and Xue Pan were talking together.

Jia Baoyu was just sighing, "It would be great if Jingqing could also come to the charity school to study!", when he suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck, as if something bad was about to happen.

He frowned and asked, "Brother Pan, has nothing happened in the mansion recently?"

Xue Pan shook his head and said, "No. It's just that my sister has been nagging me about something lately. It's so annoying."

Baoyu's bad feeling became stronger and stronger, and he murmured, "Did Sister Bao also persuade you?" Suddenly, he saw a familiar-looking servant coming over from outside. Baoyu's body shook violently and he couldn't stop shaking.

He cried out in a sobbing voice: "Brother Pan, go and ask my aunt and the old lady to save me."

Chapter 63: Chaos at Tiewang Mountain

pain!

Jia Rong felt like his shoulder bones were about to crack.

General Feng Tang patted Jia Rong's shoulder with great pride and laughed: "You won the first place in the review and were awarded a gold belt by the emperor. Our family finally has another brave boy. This time you will definitely be promoted to the Dragon Guard, and you will have to serve in the palace in the future. When you have a promising future, don't forget to treat us to more drinks. Brother Zhen has raised a good son. Who will say you are useless in the future..."

Feng Tang pulled his sleeves up to his arms and said, "I'll beat him to death."

hiss!

Jia Rong took a deep breath and felt the back of his neck was cool and his shoulders were hot.

He saw a bunch of people coming to congratulate him, and he was so scared that he was numb. If everyone came to hit him like this, his bones would be broken.

"Master Feng, let's keep a low profile. Being high-profile will easily attract jealousy."

Feng Tang said generously, "If you are not envied by others, you are a mediocre person." As he said this, he suddenly remembered something. He sighed, "Brother Rong got married too early. Our Feng family also has a daughter. It's a pity."

Huh?

Jia Rong was excited when he heard this. A daughter?

Why does Feng Ziying look like that? It's like he's eaten shit.

Feng Ziying said speechlessly: "My little sister is only two years old, father, don't talk nonsense. Don't be like the younger sister of the Shen family, unable to get married... cough cough cough, cough, Shen... Brother Shen is here."

Jia Rong felt his hands and feet go cold, and an awkward smile froze on his lips. He bowed and said, "Greetings, Uncle Shen."

Feng Tang slapped Feng Ziying on the head and cursed, "How can a brother curse his sister? If your father wasn't in a good mood today, I would have hung you up and beaten you." Then he turned to Shen Nian and said, "Nian boy, you and Ziying will look after Rong for the next half month. If he gets beaten up on the mountain right after getting first place in the review, our families will lose face."

When Jia Rong heard Feng Tang's instructions, he was so moved that he dared not move.

General Feng is a rough but delicate person, but can we change someone else? Don't let Shen Nian beat you up instead of others.

Jia Rong didn't dare say this, for he was afraid of being beaten by Feng Tang on the spot.

This life is so hard!

He sighed secretly.

Feng Tang suddenly whispered, "The atmosphere in the enclosure has been a little strange these past two days. You guys should be more cautious when you get to the mountain."

Shen Nian slowly shifted his gaze away from Jia Rong and nodded, "My nephew also felt it."

Feng Tang didn't say anything more. The others who gathered around him also understood what was going on, and simply congratulated him before leaving.

Jia Rong raised his eyebrows. He felt that many eyes were staring at him, as if they were all waiting to beat him up when they got to the mountain.

"How unlucky I am to get first place."

"Ok?"

Shen Nian and Feng Ziying turned their heads abruptly, the corners of their mouths trembling.

"Want to beat him?"

"Next time."

"When?"

"On the way back from hunting."

"Okay, I'll take him out then. It's better to call your sister too, so we can beat him together."

Ok?

Jia Rong was speechless as he watched the two guys discussing how to beat him up. "Well, is there a possibility that I am not deaf and can hear what you are saying?"

I don’t know whether Jia Rong will be beaten later.

Baoyu was already in a state of panic. Unfortunately, after the beating, Aunt Xue asked the old lady and Mrs. Wang to come over.

"What a tragedy!"

The feeling of riding in the mountains is completely different from that of riding on flat ground. It is thrilling and scary.

Jia Rong held the reins in his hands, grasped the saddle with both hands, and led four strong servants to the edge of the dense forest without realizing it. Not far away were Feng Ziying, who was riding at full speed, and Shen Nian and others, who were shouting loudly.

“There are no tigers in the mountains, right?”

He had a lot of things to think about, but it was all in vain. Even if there was a tiger, it would have been driven away by the other people who had entered the mountain.

Miserable! It's more comfortable to sleep with my wife at home.

What if he slept with Wang Xifeng?

He glanced at Shen Nian cautiously. He hoped that he would not be beaten up by both Shen Nian and Jia Lian!

Tiewang Mountain had already chosen an area for the enclosure, and a square yellow tent had been built on the high ground of the enclosure area, which was used as a watchtower for watching the enclosure. When the beasts from all directions were driven to the center of the enclosure by the soldiers of each camp, the emperor first practiced archery and horsemanship to chase the beasts.

The mounted attendants, princes, ministers, and soldiers from the Shenji Camp and the Huqiang Camp followed closely, leading dogs, driving eagles, and delivering arrows, never leaving the emperor's side.

After the emperor hunted alone, the whole audience cheered. The princes and sons of the royal family finally had a chance to display their talents, and the emperor returned to the city to watch the young men hunting.

Jia Rong was very depressed, and walked slowly among the mountains and rivers with four strong men.

“There’s not even a single rabbit in sight.”

Perhaps because he muttered this, a group of elk suddenly appeared from behind the mountain and rushed towards him.

Damn it?

Jia Rong was stunned for a moment, then quickly pulled the reins and turned around to run. As he ran, he shouted, "Uncle Feng, Shen's eldest brother-in-law, come and save me."

hunt?

Hunting with a plane.

Damn, there are dozens of people following the elk. These guys must have done it on purpose.

I even saw Qiu Jiheng grinning evilly on horseback!

Jia Rong now understood what it meant to bump into someone accidentally while fighting over prey. This was a fight over prey, and then they bumped into each other 'accidentally'.

If he was knocked off his horse, he would be kicked to death by the horse's hooves, or he would be hit a few times for no apparent reason. Even if the injury was not serious, he would definitely lose face. The emperor and the princes and ministers were all watching the city and admiring it.

Grass!

Jia Rong quickly urged the four strong men around him to run faster.

Shen Nian and Feng Ziying, who were not far away, heard the noise and immediately shouted "Not good". They could tell at a glance that the crowd was deliberately driving the elk towards Jia Rong.

Looking at the side of the city, Feng Tang, Chen Ruiwen and other nearby people also discovered the situation in the distance.

Feng Tang cursed in a low voice: "Chen kid, look at the trouble you've caused."

Chen Ruiwen had no words to express his pain.

Am I that stupid? I really didn't mark the first place for Rong Ge'er. When you saw Rong Ge'er get the first place, where did his excitement go? Now he blames me.

"Help!"

"Help!"
