The Red Mansions

Chapter 103
For a quarter of an hour, looking at the performance table on the desk, Qin Ye's old face was full of shock.

"Hengben is simple and straightforward, born in a humble background, living among the weeds in the fields, on the duckweeds of the rivers, yesterday inherited the grace of his ancestors, and now he is anointed with the kindness of the Holy Emperor. The ancestors' martial arts were fierce, and Jing Cong followed them to serve the clan... My mother respected the name and taught, respected courtesy, and blamed her for her reading, earnestly teaching, and her last words are still in my ears. Studying classics, history and war strategies, every time I look at historical records, I often cover up and hide my hatred for not being able to be the leader of the former Han Dynasty, to spread the prestige outside the borders for the great Han, and to be the eldest, follow the mother's will, and marry the daughter of the Qin family... but the leader of Ningguo , Zhen is surly, cruel and lustful, and because of this, she harmed Yu Heng. Fortunately, there was Mrs. Rong Guotai who loved her relatives first, and she dealt with justice and reconciled her sons and daughters. However, Zhen did not want to repent. Candles illuminated by the holy light, Jingzhao Yasi, ruled out, thieves and bandits tried to commit crimes, Zhenyou was convicted and lost her title..."

The above is just a review of things, the language is simple and unbiased.

"After the sage sympathized with the meritorious officials, didn't the nobles of Ningguo be wiped out for their past crimes, and Heng was bestowed with the nobles, the emperor's grace was so great, and the saint's virtues were transformed, and all the Jia clan were grateful, and Heng was so heartless to repay the holy ones? But the nobles of Ningguo, is Because Heng saw harm to Jia Zhen and lost it, now it is easy to change to Heng, and the slander is added to the body, Heng is not afraid day and night, tossing and turning..."

In fact, there was another reason why he didn't want to attack the noble.

Jia Zhen lost her title because of him, so he will make up for it?What has he become in the eyes of others?
"The sages said, if the name is not correct, the words will not go well, and if the words don't go well, things will not happen, and things will not go well, and rituals and music will not flourish. Heng is stupid and straightforward, rarely does not change things, has a rough understanding of etiquette and righteousness, does not seek deep understanding, and looks forward to the kindness of the sage... To show fear His heart lies in Emperor Que, and his desire to write grand plans rests in Danbi."

First I quote the words of the sage to prove his heart, and then he said that I am stupid and straightforward, and I do not seek to understand the righteousness of the sages. If there is a wrong interpretation of "the name is right and the words are right", the sage will not give me a child's insight.

Then, with a humble posture, the grand ambitions were written in Dan Bi, written on the jade steps of the palace...

"Heng is four years old this year. He is the same age as Emperor Jian Zuo Gaiyuan. He lost his father when he was young. His father is kind. He sees Heng's strength... Heng only wishes not to be kind to his ancestors, but to take fame and fame for himself. For all to learn from, may the Holy One be merciful to the foolish and straightforward, listen to Heng's weeping words, and dare to exhaust his mind and repay the community? Heng is so grateful, I would like to ask you to hear about it."

In the last paragraph, it is almost the father of the king, which is undoubtedly politically correct in the feudal era when the subjects regarded the emperor as the father of the king.

Hai Rui said in the prison after reading "Zhi An Shu", "I have no father. I eat the king's salary, and the king is my father. All the subjects in the world regard the king as their father, but today's sages treat the people like fish..."

Jiajing, who was talking in one word, was silent and his heart was heavy.

After some debate, Hai Rui was finally given eight words, young man...without king and father, abandoning country and family.

However, in terms of Emperor Chongping's age, compared with Jia Heng, he was considered to be the age of his father's generation. When Jia Heng wrote this, he didn't feel much strange.

The "Cijue Biao" was written, and when the handwriting was dry, Jia Heng paused, and on the cover of the memorial again, the book was full of names, from beginning to end, with an indifferent and solemn expression.

Qin Ye was already in a daze, with an unspeakable emotion floating in his old eyes, looking at the young man in amazement, unbelievable.

What kind of husband did he find for her daughter?
This memorial to "Ci Jue Biao" is simple and simple, with both reason and reason. Even the emperor has to think twice, and then as long as he changes his mind, he can spread the memorial to China and abroad. The world will only sigh with emotion. Wanfang, and the people respect the way of propriety and righteousness, and practice it.

Qin Keqing, who was on the side, also witnessed the publication of this memorial, with a beautiful face and trembling heart.

This is her husband, no matter how difficult the situation is, he can always find a way out.

Jia Heng's complexion was light and his eyes were calm.

Even though the words he wrote in the memorial were sincere, they were just a business card in the final analysis. The key was to meet Emperor Chongping and completely untie the knot in the emperor's heart.

Even if he attacked the Jia family, could he really seize some military power from the four princes and eight princes?

In the past two days, he also collected some information about the Beijing camp from Cai Quan.

It can only be said... the nobles who led the army are dead, how much combat power can we expect from the soldiers of the Beijing camp?
Fanguo far away along the West Sea can't win, and the bandits in Sansuke, Gyeonggi, can't even be defeated.

He knew that he couldn't expect anything from Chen Han's soldiers.

Let Wang Ziteng do the work of weeding out the old and the weak, fighting for fame and fortune, and fighting with the four kings and eight princes in the Beijing camp.

Otherwise, you will be easily blamed and constrained up and down.

In the old system, if a new army cannot be bred, it is better to recruit another new army and build a new army that belongs to him from the ground up. Whether it is Yuan Xiangcheng or Zeng Wenzheng in the future, he can do it at a thought.

He is a frontier soldier of later generations. Although in this world, based on the old economic foundation, it is impossible to reproduce a disciplined and faithful king's army, it is also possible to create an army of "Yue Family Army".

With this in mind, Jia Heng put away the notebook and looked at Qin Keqing. His wife's eyes, which were full of autumn water, soothed the complicated emotions in his heart, and said softly: "Keqing, you are at home first, and I will go and see you soon." back."

Qin Keqing paused slightly, then nodded vigorously.

Jia Heng put the memorabilia into his sleeve, cupped his hands at Qin Ye, and said: "My lord Yuezhang, my son-in-law is not sure whether he can make the Holy Majesty change his mind, but you have to try to do it or not. .”

Qin Ye looked at the boy quietly and nodded.

On Qin Zhong's weak face, there was also a dazed look, looking at his brother-in-law, he just heard the conversation between his father and sister and brother-in-law, and knew that his brother-in-law wanted to change the emperor's mind, this...

At this moment, looking at the boy who was not a few years older than himself, he seemed to feel a very firm force from him, and a seed was faintly planted in his heart.

After Jia Heng finished speaking, he didn't say much, and walked out of the Qin's flower hall, and walked towards the gate.

Lin Zhixiao had been waiting for a long time, when he saw Jia Heng coming out, his face was overjoyed, and he said: "Brother Heng, you finally came out, the old lady and the second master are waiting in the ancestral hall, and the angels in the palace have been waiting in the ancestral hall for a long time." Yes, the clan has already decided that you will be the patriarch of Ningguo, and you will be the patriarch of the Jia clan..."

This Lin Zhixiao, known as the deaf and dumb, had seen the heroic demeanor of the Rongfu Dai Shangong when he was young, and he had a steelyard in his heart. Nothing to miss.

Jia Heng nodded at Lin Zhixiao, but didn't make any sarcasm because it was unnecessary.

He took the reins of the horse from the servant at the side, got on the horse, and headed towards Ningrong Street.

The imperial decree in the palace is waiting for him, just as Lin Zhixiao said before, he can't be negligent and delay.

Several riders rode through the spotless street after the rain on Ningrong Street, and dismounted in front of the stone lion in front of the Ning Mansion Gate. A vigorous young man with a green shirt and a straight gown, standing with his sword.

Jia Heng and Lin Zhixiao got off their horses, met the eyes of the servants and inner guards of the Ning residence, tall and tall, and entered proudly.

Gui Ning... Gui Ning?
Jia Mansion Ancestral Hall——

It was already noon, and the people of the Jia clan who were waiting felt hungry and thirsty, and they were suffering. Looking at Jia She and Mrs. Xing, they couldn't help feeling a little bit of resentment in their hearts.

They were summoned early in the morning and were busy with the expulsion of their nationality, some of them hadn't even finished their grains of rice, and then encountered the imperial decree, they wanted to leave but couldn't.

Not only the members of the Jia clan, such as Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Sister Feng, and Li Wan all felt that their stomachs were empty, and their chests were pressed against their backs.

Fortunately, if you don't eat a meal, you won't starve to death.

Jia Zheng looked at Dai Quan with a distressed expression on his face, and said, "Mr. Dai, will you allow my family members to disperse and go to the front yard?"

Dai Quan looked around, suddenly raised an orchid finger, and said in a sharp voice with a hint of femininity: "When the miscellaneous family went out to pass the decree, they only drank a bowl of porridge."

Everyone of the Jia clan: "..."

My heart is full of curses, eunuchs fight hunger after castration, how can we compare?
Dai Quan didn't know if he had heard the crowd's scolding, or if he saw Mother Jia and the other female relatives who had been ordered to look awkward, he pondered for a while and said, "Can your residence prepare some snacks first, so that everyone can be cushioned first?"

Jia Zheng shook his head quickly and said, "The place where the ancestors and spirits still eat, how can we allow the younger generations to eat here?"

Jia Zheng's words are really polite. What's the matter with eating in the Jia clan's ancestral hall?
Dai Quan's face became silent for a while, and he was about to speak, when suddenly the joyful voice of a servant of Jia's mansion came from a distance, "Butler Lin and Uncle Heng are here."
