191. Chapter one hundred and ninety

It was said that Jia Huan wrote a letter saying that he wanted to marry Princess Jian'an. Jia She asked: "But the one who fell in love with Baoyu's poem?"

Jia Cong said: "Yeah. Reading at midnight is too abrupt and abrupt. Brother Yao'er and I both find it strange. There must be other reasons. Anyone who Brother Huan likes must not be a fool."

Jia She said: "No matter what the reason is, the second brother and the ancestors will never agree."

Jia Cong twitched the corners of his lips: "It doesn't matter what they say."

Jia She was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "What you're talking about is, why do I keep forgetting this matter? It's obvious that I'm getting old." Then he asked, "How old is the princess?"

Jia Cong said: "I checked, this year is twelve."

Jia She immediately put down his chopsticks and cursed: "It's not even a flower bone! Why is the little bastard so anxious? Let him wait! At least he has to wait for the girl to be fifteen, right? He is so frustrated that he has to open two first.

A common-room girl."

Jia Cong couldn't help laughing: "Brother Huan must not be anxious about this. What are you thinking about? There is Yihongyuan in Beijing. The King of Lu is going to Luzhou. It's a long way to go. It's fatal to be unfamiliar with the place. She is from Lu

Wang's sister, if her mother's family couldn't protect her, she could marry someone? Brother Huan is probably afraid of an engagement."

Jia She waved his hand and said: "It's worthless! What's the point of getting engaged? Since he likes it, he can just grab it before we get married."

Jia Cong held out his thumb: "Dad, you still have the guts!"

Jia She stroked his beard and said proudly: "Where did you come from if I didn't grow it?"

Jia Cong made a face and suddenly said "Ah" again: "If Brother Huan wants to marry Princess Jian'an, won't he inevitably meet Han Quan?"

Jia She said: "So what if we meet? Even if they look alike, how can we know that they are the same person? She has no evidence, but we have evidence. Besides, there are many rules in the palace, and the two of them may not have been together since they were young.

I've seen her a few times, but she might not recognize her. If that girl wants to marry, she'll have to wait until four or five years later. How big is Han Quan's idea? She might have changed her appearance by then, and she might not recognize her."

Jia Cong pouted and said, "Dad, you are showing off your strength."

Jia She glared at him, and then said: "The capital has been decided, Grand Master, what are your preparations?"

Jia Cong was stunned: "Ah? What kind of master?"

Jia She said: "Lin Hai, I have decided to be the official. I will be the best tutor."

Jia Cong thought about it for a while and said with a smile, "It's okay if dad says it." He frowned and thought for a long time. Jia She urged him to eat. It wasn't until the meal was over that he said, "If Han Quan doesn't use the hook,

I'm afraid there's no way to coax Uncle Lin over to our side."

Jia She was busy coaxing Meng'er to eat at the moment. When he heard this, he didn't even look back and said, "You can do whatever you want, as long as you don't reveal it clearly."

Jia Cong responded and went down to write a letter to Jia Huan. After he finished writing, he picked it up and read it over again, and added the section that Jia She said, "Since he likes it, he can grab it before they get married."

.

Two flowers bloomed, one on each branch, and we turned back to Hengwuyuan. The old men received notes one after another describing the situation in the capital. At first, when they saw Fang Xiong killing ministers wantonly, some stood in the hall crying and some scolding.

After that, Lin Hai returned to the house and sighed and said to Su Zheng: "No wonder Cong'er insisted on locking us here. Otherwise, I would be the one who died in the first group, and you would inevitably be among the second group."

Su Zheng said: "I'm just trapped here. I have no time to be angry but can't do anything. I'm very depressed."

Who would have thought that a note would arrive the next day, which said: "I imagine that all of you will be filled with righteous indignation and become a poet. If you have any poems that denounce the thieves, you can write them and put them in the hall. They will be copied and sent to the capital."

If it is spread on the streets, your writing will not be in vain."

Lin Hai was speechless! After a long while, he shook his head and said, "A hundred useless people are just scholars!" Then he threw up his sleeves and left.

Later, when he learned that the imperial guards had returned to Beijing, he thought that the saint would also return to the court, and started making noises to go back to Beijing. However, no one paid any attention to them. Until he saw that Liu Dengxi's house was attacked at night, Lin Hai took the note and looked at it several times.

Suddenly, his calf became soft and he could sit down on the ground. Fortunately, Su Zheng was beside him, and he quickly supported him with quick eyesight and hands. Lin Hai's eyes were as blank as if he had lost his soul, and he hurriedly invited an adult to come over and help him.

He sat down and asked, "Ruhai, what's going on?"

Su Zheng was a member of the Imperial Academy and did not know how important Liu Dengxi was. Others knew about it, and he said at a loss, "Eunuch Liu is the most powerful person around the saint, and he is even more important than Eunuch Dai."

Lin Hai suddenly shouted: "Dai Quan! Is Dai Quan still alive?"

They left a note asking about this matter. After a few days, the "last general" replied, "Eunuch Dai Quan is still alive and is currently taking care of the Empress Dowager in the palace."

Only then did the old men remember that although the late Emperor passed away, the Queen Mother was still there! Lin Hai cursed: "What a cunning old thing!"

Some days later, the fifth prince ascended the throne again and sent the remaining two princes out of the capital. Lin Hai gave up completely and couldn't eat or sleep for several days.

Su Zheng advised: "Is the wise king really a last resort? I don't know where the saint has gone."

Lin Hai sneered and said: "Other than him, who else would kill Liu Dengxi? Dai Quan is still alive. Although this dynasty has not established a royal guard, there are still people in the court who are responsible for secret investigations. The wise king used to take care of this together with Liu Dengxi."

Su Zheng suddenly realized: "Eunuch Liu knows too many things!"

Lin Hai sighed: "It's not that he knows too much, it's that he is both capable and extremely loyal. To be honest, Dai Quan may not be as loyal as him. Of those who are still alive in the court today, except Situ Pan, who else

Knowing that Liu Dengxi is so important, why must he be killed?"

Su Zheng was silent for a long time, and then sighed: "Who in the Tian family doesn't want to sit on a chair? Besides, he has no self-reliance, and he is afraid of his reputation after death."

Lin Hai shook his head and said nothing.

The old man fell ill the next day and stayed ill for more than a month. The doctor who came to see him was obviously a military doctor, and he could not find anything to say other than seeing a doctor. By the time Lin Hai recovered from his illness, King Chen and King Lu had already left the capital. Lin Hai's body

Although he was well, his spirit was much worse. Su Zheng persuaded him to read poems and books and raise flowers and plants, and also wrote a note asking the "final general" to send some flower pots; Lin Hai still sighed every day.

The other dozen or so elders all understood that the wise king had turned against him, and they were all wilted.

Some days later, one night, after all the adults had gone to bed, someone knocked on the door gently outside Lin Hai's house.

Lin Hai had been having trouble sleeping recently, so when he heard the sound, he asked: "Who is outside the door?"

Someone outside said: "Mr. Lin, please stop making a fuss and keep your voice low!"

Lin Hai frowned and said, "Who are you?"

The man said with a smile: "The general is the one who leads the way. Some people want to see Mr. Lin, please don't shout."

Lin Hai had climbed down from the kang, put on some clothes and said, "It can't be that boy Cong'er who came from the south."

I heard a very familiar voice complaining outside: "He is in Taiwan and I am in Beijing. Why do you only think of him and not of me?"

Lin Hai immediately recognized Jia Huan and cursed: "I knew it was you brats who caused the trouble!" As he said this, he went over to open the door.

Under the moonlight, I saw Jia Huan wearing the moon-white Confucian robe that he usually wears every day and a Confucian scarf on his head. He still looked like a child. He couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know what night it is today."

Jia Huan bowed to him first and crept in. The young general who robbed the prison that day stood outside and said, "You guys can speak for yourself, I'll leave first."

Jia Huan nodded: "Thank you, Brother Liu."

Then he lit a candle. Although Lin Hai had guessed that this place was arranged by them, he was put under house arrest for many days, and he could not help but complain a little in his heart. He had not seen his relatives and disciples for many days, and he missed him. So he first brought Jia Huan over to take a closer look.

After looking at it for a long time, he said, "Why have you lost some weight?"

Jia Huan hurriedly complained: "Uncle, they have all gone to hide in the south. I am the only one left in the capital. There are also a large group of elder relatives who are worried about me at home. I am exhausted these days!"

Lin Hai suddenly remembered that he only had such a big idea. The capital was in turmoil. He had to protect his family among many traitors and traitors, and he also had to protect his own home and the Su family. It was not easy. The idea he had just now disappeared immediately. He sighed.

Said: "It's really difficult for you."

Jia Huan nodded vigorously: "It's really difficult. Fortunately, I caused a lot of trouble because I happen to be a son!"

Lin Hai was dumbfounded when he said this. Thinking of Jia Zheng's character and knowledge, he guessed it, so he just shook his head, stroked his head and said, "It's hard for you to be a child." He also felt that they and the other children could think of something to do.

This group of loyal ministers were rescued from the imperial prison, and they were able to conclude that the current turmoil was not temporary, and imprisoned the old men here. Although they were not able to move freely, they saved their lives and property, and they did not drag down the family.

It's extremely difficult.

Jia Huan saluted him again as an apology to the old man.

The two men sat down on the edge of the Kang, and Jia Huan recounted all the chaos outside these days. He said: "Because our East Mansion has some contacts with the Sixth Prince, we got a very confidential piece of information."

When Prince Xian was imprisoned by the Sixth Prince, some of Prince Yi Zhong's extremely loyal and powerful subordinates, who did not know where they came from, imitated a large box of tiger charms, which were just like the real ones, and gave them all to you.

Your Majesty, one piece for each person."

Lin Hai was shocked: "Is this news reliable?"

Jia Huan said: "It's reliable. If you put it together with the truth, even the Sixth Prince, who has been leading the army all year round, can't tell the difference between the truth and the truth."

Lin Hai was very anxious: "As a result, the generals leading the troops will not be able to tell the truth from the false!"

Jia Huan said: "Not even the Xian Prince was left out. I just don't know why Prince Zhongshun was left out. Is there some disagreement between Prince Zhongshun and Prince Yizhong in the early years?"

Lin Hai thought: "I have never heard that there is any danger between the two of them. Prince Zhongshun is a debauched and unrestrained person. He loves to make friends with people in the green forest. It is unknown that he has offended Prince Yi Zhong."

In fact, Jia Cong and the others suddenly remembered that they had had some unpleasant experiences with Prince Zhongshun, and did not want to give him an advantage, so they temporarily sent an arrow book to the Sixth Prince's house, asking him not to give Prince Zhongshun the Tiger Talisman. The whole story cannot be said. Sixth Prince

After receiving such a huge benefit from him, Prince Yi Zhong was already dead, so why not give him a tiger talisman? So he didn't give it to him.

Jia Huan added: "Therefore, I guess that after the wise king knew about this, he completely gave up his desire to support the saint, and gradually began to think of self-reliance. The sixth prince probably also used sweet words to persuade him."

Lin Hai sighed: "How can he be so sweet and talkative?"

Jia Huan said: "It just awakened the thoughts in his heart. Everyone in the court, except those without eyes, can't see that the wise king is much smarter than the saint? In the past, it was just obscured by other things. What's more?

, the saint's suspicion has become more and more severe in recent years. He ignored everything in order to protect himself, which makes him feel very aggrieved when he thinks about it. Uncle, I think there is nothing wrong with the wise king."

Lin Haidao: "A saint is a king after all, and he is a minister after all."

Jia Huan said helplessly: "After a long time of trouble, we still have to go back up there."

"What boss?"

Jia Huandao: "The dispute between Confucius and Mencius is whether the king is more important or the people are more important."

Lin Haidao: "We are talking about ministers, not people."

Jia Huan spread his hands and said, "It's the same. I'm just a citizen who has received a salary."

Lin Hai glared at him and said, "Don't try to change someone else's situation!"

Jia Huan said: "Who changed the pillars? Mr. Lin, you can say it yourself, a saint or a wise king, which one will be better for the people and officials if he becomes the emperor? There is no need to pretend to be blind when everyone understands. Besides, why was the saint chosen?

You know exactly which chair you sit on, right?"

Lin Haidao: "Since he has been chosen, he is the king. Those who serve as ministers can hang up their titles and retire in seclusion, but cannot replace them."

Jia Huan curled his lips and said: "The wise king is not your elder. If he hangs up his crown and goes into seclusion, he will definitely die! Besides, he has not been replaced by him, so he has not given birth to a son. The saint has not set up a prince."

Lin Haidao: "The saint intends to establish a second prince, and most civil and military officials in the entire dynasty know about it."

Jia Huan said: "It's one thing to intend it, but it's another thing to establish it. It can still be abolished after it's established! Prince Yi Zhong has been the crown prince for decades."

Lin Hai was speechless! After a long pause, he waved his hand impatiently and asked again: "Where is this place? Who is that general?"

Jia Huan waved his hands repeatedly: "I really can't tell you this! It's such a mess outside, it's already a huge favor for someone to help rescue you and protect you. I don't know how to repay it in the future. You live here

This yard was prepared for my daughter-in-law, and the bed tents and daily utensils purchased were all paid for by me! It’s nothing to honor you and Mr. Su. All the other adults have benefited from it. I will have to find an opportunity to let them thank me in the future.

.”

Lin Hai heard that he refused to say anything at first, and wanted to ask a few questions. But when he heard it, he couldn't laugh or cry: "Nonsense! These are all loyal saints. What's wrong with buying some utensils for a few adults?"

Jia Huan made a face. Seeing that Lin Hai seemed to want to ask more questions, he quickly interrupted: "I have something to tell you quietly, but you must not tell anyone! Not even Mr. Su or Sister Lin."

Lin Hai hurriedly asked what was going on.

Jia Huan ran outside and opened the door, looked around for a moment, then closed the door and came back. He pulled Lin Hai and said in a low voice: "When Fang Xiong was running rampant in the capital, Mr. Xie in the palace sent the seventh prince to our house in a roundabout way!

"

Lin Hai was shocked: "What?!"

Jia Huan shushed: "Other than Xie Guiren herself, I am probably the only one who knows about this matter in Beijing. I wrote another letter to the south to tell my uncle, Cong'er and Yao'er brother that both I and the old lady have nothing to do with it.

I don’t know!”

Lin Hai grabbed his hand anxiously and asked, "How is the Seventh Prince?"

Jia Huan said: "I don't dare to tell you more. It's not that I'm afraid that you won't be able to keep the secret, but it's actually safer if one less person knows about it. The seventh prince has already been taken care of by proper people, and the people who take care of him don't care about him at all.

I don't know that he is a prince. The current situation is really unpredictable. No matter where the chair is, it's not his turn to sit on it, so let's just leave it like this. In case something happens in the future, there is always one left for the saint.

Bones and blood, our family can be considered worthy of this monarch and his ministers."

Lin Hai closed his eyes, with thousands of thoughts in his mind. It took him a quarter of an hour before he opened his eyes and said: "It's only one day in the mountains, but a thousand years have passed in this world. Huan'er, you did the right thing. You can't tell anyone else about this matter, and I won't

I won’t ask too many questions. I have no choice but to give birth to and raise the Seventh Prince. If I don’t keep it together, I will really leave a foundation for the saint.”

Jia Huan nodded and added: "It's just that I have no choice but to hide you all here these days. Now...that General Liu outside...well, I'm afraid I can't keep you here for a long time."

Lin Hai became more and more curious about who "Second Brother Liu" was, but Jia Huan had already said it before, so he couldn't ask again. In fact, Jia Huan's words were just misleading the old man. They were not under house arrest, but in hiding.

"Sir, do you want to send you back to the capital? The King Xian probably won't do anything to you. Or should we send you somewhere else? Back to your hometown? How about you go to Taiwan to have some fun? I heard that Sister Lin is very busy."

Lin Hai thought for a long time and said: "I will discuss it with you adults in a few days. Your families are all in Beijing, and you have to go back."

Jia Huan nodded, glanced at the moon again, and said, "It's not convenient for me to stay here for a long time. Your Excellencies, we have already discussed it and just tell General Liu. I won't see Mr. Su for a while. My uncle only said that General Liu came to look for you."

say."

Lin Hai didn't know what kind of relationship General Liu had with them, or what kind of situation General Liu was in, so he had to agree. He also said: "He is not allowed to give us any more drugs!"

Jia Huan curled his lips and said, "I can't handle this. I'll try to persuade him later. I don't know if it will work. He also took a huge risk to do this. Adults have enough

There are more than a dozen people. Even if he can trust you, he may not be able to trust others."

Lin Hai had no choice but to give him a few more words, caressed his head and neck, and watched eagerly as Jia Huan quietly opened the door and slipped out like a thief. His whole figure gradually disappeared from view in the moonlight.

I had so many thoughts in my mind that I went back to the desk and wrote a melody of more than 500 words called "A Long Song Under the Moon".
