I pretend to be a unicorn in the Red Mansion
Chapter 9 Jia She must work hard
After the redness and swelling on Jia Baoyu's body caused by the wasp sting was treated, Grandmother Jia and Mrs. Wang couldn't wait to take him back to Rong Xi Tang.
When leaving, Grandmother Jia didn't even look at Jia Cheng, her heart and eyes were full of Jia Baoyu.
However, Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Cheng with a cold gaze. She felt that Jia Cheng was a bad match for Jia Baoyu.
Otherwise, how can we explain that Baoyu was safe and sound for the past six years without meeting Jia Cheng, but unfortunately got injured the next time he met Jia Cheng.
If this isn’t a contradiction, then what is?
Mrs. Wang decided to find someone who could tell the fortunes of Jia Baoyu and Jia Cheng and see if they were incompatible. If this brat Jia Cheng influenced Baoyu, Mrs. Wang would definitely not show mercy to him, even though he was the eldest wife's legitimate son.
Mrs. Wang had already ruined Jia Lian, so she didn't mind killing another Jia Cheng.
After Lady Jia and Lady Wang left, peace returned to the main house.
Mrs. Xing complained to Jia She with some dissatisfaction, "Master, Jia Baoyu is clearly unlucky himself, why do you blame my Shuanbao? My Shuanbao is really wronged."
Madam Xing picked up Jia Cheng and rubbed his face.
Jia She also had an ugly expression on his face. In the past, he didn't care about being ignored or the unfair treatment he received. After all, he was on the wrong side and followed the wrong person.
But he couldn't bear to let his son be ignored and looked down upon, which made him feel heartbroken.
Jia She looked at Jia Cheng guiltily, then locked himself in the study, thinking about how to break the impasse.
It was clear that he was appointed by the Emperor as the deposed prince's study companion, and it was not him who chose to follow the deposed prince.
But after the prince fell, he was implicated. The emperor did not give him the opportunity to choose. In the end, the prince made a mistake, but he still blamed them.
What's wrong with him?
Jia She is not someone who would lead the prince astray. He usually stays with the prince just to eat, drink and have fun, and never gives him any advice.
When Jia She thought of the deposed crown prince, he felt unfair for him. The deposed crown prince did nothing wrong, he was just too outstanding, so outstanding that the emperor felt threatened.
The prince is still in confinement now, but because of his personal charm, there are still many old ministers who are loyal to him and want to make trouble secretly.
Jia She had never participated in their business before, he just wanted to live the rest of his life in peace and stability.
The emperor took away his father-in-law and original wife in a rage, and even his eldest son Jia Hu was killed. He was no longer willing to participate in the fight for the throne.
He was scared.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the Jia family is a wealthy family, a superior family, and seems to be glorious.
But in the final analysis, the Jia family were just bondservants of the royal family, not members of the Eight Banners, a group of Manchu nobles.
A family like his can't afford to fight for the throne. If they make a mistake, they will only pay with their lives and there will be no chance to regret.
If it weren't for the grandmother's face and the brotherhood between his father Jia Daishan and the emperor, the Jia family would have been ruined long ago.
But Jia She is now unwilling to give in.
He didn't want his smart brother Cheng to be a useless person all his life.
His son is a god who has descended to earth, a Qilin, which is a good omen.
Jia She felt guilty whenever Jia Cheng suffered any injustice.
In the past, Jia She was willing to use decadence and depravity to confuse everyone, and was unwilling to get involved in the mess of deposing the crown prince.
It’s different now, he wants to create a future for his son.
After Jia She made up his mind, he carried Jia Cheng to the study with a relaxed look on his face and asked him softly, "Shuanbao, do you want to be the Duke of Rong?"
Jia Cheng was stunned and didn't understand why Jia She asked such a question.
He couldn't become the Duke of Rong just because he wanted to. After all, the Jia family was only a first-class general's mansion and would be confiscated in the future.
It's lucky that he managed to keep his life, but it's absolutely impossible for him to inherit the family business.
In the Qing Dynasty, the only way to inherit a title was to demote it to a lower rank. Without any great achievements, it was impossible to raise the title.
The Jia family is a family of military generals, and each generation is weaker than the previous one. Now there is no war to fight. How can he possibly become the Duke of Rong?
His current small goal is just to stop the Jia family from being confiscated and to take over their property first.
He didn't even dare to think about things like rapid success.
Jia Cheng suppressed his thoughts and said with an innocent smile: "Master, will you be happy to be the Duke of Rong? If you like me to be the Duke of Rong, then I will be the Duke of Rong, as long as I can be with you and your wife."
Jia Cheng’s words made Jia She feel sad. His son was so sensible, how could he bear to let him waste his life?
His son Qilin should live a life of superiority!
Jia She hugged Jia Cheng tightly, trying to listen to his inner thoughts, but he could hear nothing.
Jia She lamented that he was just a mortal after all, and he was lucky to be able to hear Qilin's voice occasionally, and he could not ask for more.
But Jia She had no idea that it was Jia Cheng who was causing all this. He was unwilling to increase his favorability towards other people.
After all, the system was jumpy and would occasionally talk to him in his mind, and he was afraid that if he was careless, others would become aware of the system's existence.
This is his biggest secret.
He will only open up his inner voice when necessary and let the person he designates hear what is in his heart.
Of course, Jia Cheng’s inner thoughts are just like everyone else’s diary. Who would write the truth in a diary?
He certainly wouldn't speak his true feelings when he knew others would hear them.
Jia She didn't know about this situation, so he tried to probe Jia Cheng about his future ideals, wanting to hear his son's thoughts.
As a result, Jia Cheng's answer was flawless, just like a filial son.
He seemed to care little about fame, wealth and power, and was not that eager for money. He behaved like a god who had descended from heaven to experience tribulations.
When the training is over, he will return to heaven. These things in the mortal world cannot hold him back at all.
Jia She was both relieved and sad. How could he deserve to have a divine son? But they were only father and son in this life.
When his son returns to heaven, he may not be able to continue their father-son relationship in the next life.
It’s a bit of a pity for Jia She.
Through this son, he truly experienced the joy of being a father.
When Jia She had his first son, Jia Hu, Jia She and Zhang were in love, and his focus was on his wife.
He also loves his eldest son, but he loves his whole family more.
As a new father, Jia She didn't dare to get close to his son, for fear of hurting the little bastard.
He was always afraid that he did not have the authority of his father, so he always had a stern face, just like Jia Zheng did to Jia Baoyu.
When his second son Jia Lian was born, Zhang had just passed away. Jia She became disheartened and no longer paid attention to this son.
In addition, he was implicated by the deposed crown prince at that time, and he did not want his son to suffer with him, so he sent his son to be raised by Lady Jia.
He didn't dare to get too close to Jia Lian. The closer he was to Jia Lian, the less Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang would treat his son well, so he could only be cold and distant towards Jia Lian.
Jia She did have some resentment towards Jia Lian in his heart. After all, it was the birth of his second son that caused Zhang's death.
Only through Jia Cheng did Jia She learn how to be a father, because he could hear Jia Cheng's inner voice from time to time.
He didn't have to guess what the child liked or disliked, Jia Cheng would tell him in his heart.
Jia She also knew that Jia Cheng liked to be close to him, and Jia Cheng was full of respect and admiration for him.
For the first time, Jia She felt the sense of accomplishment of being a father and became very fond of his son.
If you love a child, you can't help but worry more about him.
The more money and time Jia She spent on Jia Cheng, the more he cared about him.
Jia She touched Jia Cheng's fair face, feeling the smooth touch of his hands, and promised him: "Shuanbao, Dad will let you live a good life. Dad used to have many good friends. They are doing a big business together. If it succeeds, we can rise to the top in one step."
Jia Cheng analyzed Jia She's words and felt that this matter was not simple.
His father first asked him if he wanted to be Duke of Rong, and then said that he had a big business deal with an old friend.
Jia She is not a businessman, what kind of business can he do? And the business that made him the Duke of Rongguo is to participate in the fight for the throne, right?
This thing can kill people.
Jia Cheng learned about the situation of the world from the books given to him by Jia She and the conversations with maids and servants.
All of them are in the world of "Dream of Red Mansions", but they are combined with the Qing Dynasty in a different way.
The titles of the Qing Dynasty emperors all match, and the overall world is also similar. We are now in the Kangxi period, and the battle for the throne among the nine dragons has begun, but it has not yet reached the critical moment.
The crown prince had been deposed for the first time. Logically, he should have been reinstated soon after the first deposition, and then deposed for the second time.
This is how it was historically.
But in this world, Kangxi did not depose the crown prince in this way, nor did he give him hope and then push him into despair. Instead, he simply imprisoned the crown prince after deposing him once.
It seemed like the situation was treated coldly, but in fact it was a way out for the deposed prince.
Kangxi conferred the title of Prince Zhong on the deposed crown prince, and showed favor to the crown prince's eldest son Hongxi, allowing him to live in the palace.
This made it difficult for everyone to understand Kangxi's intentions, and they didn't know whether the emperor intended to establish a crown prince.
Because Hongxi was favored, the prince's old subordinates were not resolutely killed by the emperor.
As long as someone pleads for mercy, as long as there is still a little affection, many of the prince's followers can still stand safely in the court.
Most of the capable officials under the crown prince were not criticized too harshly by Kangxi, especially the Manchus, who were only beaten and scolded and demoted.
The only unlucky ones were the bondservants and Han officials, such as Lord Zhang, the Prince's tutor, and Ling Pu, the Prince's wet nurse.
And there is the unfortunate Jia family who has no successor.
Jia Cheng went over the general background of this world in his mind and didn't understand why Jia She wanted to get involved in the fight for the throne.
Is this the reason why their Jia family was finally destroyed and exterminated? If it was really because he participated in the fight for the throne and stood on the wrong side, which led to the downfall of the Jia family, then he would definitely stop Jia She.
Jia Cheng organized his words, trying not to sound too mature. He said in a childish tone: "Master, is there any danger in doing this business? The greater the gain, the more we have to pay.
If it succeeds, it's fine. But if it fails, won't it cost me everything I have? Then, won't Cheng-ge be able to eat so many delicious foods in the future?"
Jia She touched Jia Cheng's head and said, "Shuanbao, wealth and honor are achieved through risk. Dad doesn't want you to be looked down upon by others."
Jia Cheng frowned. The Jia family was not as strong as the best but better than the worst. If Jia She was allowed to mess around, the family would be defeated sooner or later.
Jia Cheng was determined to stop Jia She, at least not to let him participate in the fight for the throne now. Kangxi was in good health, so there was no need to rush.
"Dad, no one looks down on Cheng Ge'er, Cheng Ge'er feels that his life is very good now.
If Dad wants to do business with others, can you wait for me and do business with you when I grow up?
The book says that brothers fight together to fight tigers, and fathers and sons fight together in battle. Maybe Chenggeer and his father can do business together and make the business bigger. "
Jia Cheng shook Jia She's arm in a coquettish manner, which caused the system to laugh at him.
In order to enjoy a few more years of rich life, Jia Cheng tried his best.
He didn't want Jia She to commit suicide. As long as he could achieve his goal, what was wrong with acting coquettish and cute?
Anyway, he is only six years old now, just a cute and pretty little kid. This is not his original body, so what is he afraid of?
Eat enough shamelessly!
