The True Winner of the Red Chamber

Jia Zheng's letter of resignation went up, causing quite a stir.

Unlike Zhen Yingjia who took the path of the emperor back then, Jia Zheng didn't have the resources and ability to listen to the heavens, so his book was to follow the official path.

This is to talk about the normal way for the court to get rid of the official status.

First, dead.

Second, be convicted.

Third, retire when you are old.

Jia Zheng didn't touch anything, but being fooled by Zhen Yingjia, Jia Zheng, who was over [-] years old, got into the horns of the horns. He held his breath and didn't discuss it with anyone. He only thought about the huge benefits in the future. He deliberately avoided it.

Of course, the reasons written in his resignation letter are quite high-sounding and sufficient.

Looking back on my love of reading since I was a child, and my heart full of feelings for the country, and then I want to take advantage of my spare time to take the imperial examination and so on. In short, it is not much different from Zhen Yingjia in the past.

It's just that the target is different. Zhen Yingjia gave the secret book to the emperor, and the emperor smiled knowingly and agreed.But Jia Zheng's book came to the Ministry of Officials, and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials frowned after reading it.

"These people have the most troubles! How many scholars in the Hanlin Academy are waiting to fill the vacancies. Fortunately, he resigned."

The servant of the Ministry of Officials turned his head and glanced twice, and sneered, "It's just a small Beijing official, and people like them probably don't like it, so yes. Such trivial matters don't need to be submitted to the Holy One for approval."

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials saw that his original official position was bestowed by the Holy Spirit on the booklet, and thought that this person would really look for trouble. Could it be that he thought he was a junior and hadn't been promoted for many years, so he pretended to resign in order to retreat?

However, the Holy Majesty has become more and more sympathetic to the old minister in the past two years. It may be possible to be fooled by him like this, but it is a pity that the Minister of the Ministry of Officials is an upright minister. It’s approved here.”

That's how Jia Zheng's future was decided.

Neither of the two parties wanted to let many people know with great fanfare that this was a perfect match. Within half a month, Jia Zheng's resignation procedures would be completed from the process. Apart from the title of the second son of Duke Rong, he had nothing else to do. .

Only Jia She, who was always waiting to pull the braids of the second room, vaguely knew something from the servants in the study, but he only had a four-word comment on it: I am happy to hear and see.

In this way, it would be difficult for Jia Zheng, who is white, to dominate the Rongxi Hall.

The female family members of the Jia family are still guarding the princess's spirit in the Taimiao. Mother Jia doesn't know that her youngest son, whom she has always been proud of, has resigned impulsively. To lose her proud identity.

Of course, Mrs. Wang herself didn't know that the five-rank mandate on her body had disappeared.

However, Wang Ziteng, who was an official in the court, knew the news. After thinking about it back and forth, he immediately slapped the table viciously, "Zhen Yingjia!"

"Prepare the car! Go to Zhen's Mansion!"

It's just that when Wang Ziteng rushed to Zhen's mansion angrily, Zhen Yingjia was not there.

He is currently studying in the Imperial College, to be precise, he is eating the small stove that Sun Jijiu gave him.

The first ten days of mutual probing period have passed, and Zhen Yingjia has fully proved that he is a beautiful young man with a bright future and worthy of a large investment, so Sun Jijiu has already started to write propositions for him.

Of course, Zhen Yingjia was not proud to think that the exam questions would come from these questions, after all, this was a bit too much.

What he pays attention to is Sun Jijiu's comments, such as what books he recommends him to read, or think about what a sentence says, and so on.

The relationship with Sun Jijiu has progressed so smoothly, Zhen Yingjia thinks it's because she also has a lot of bright spots in her body.

There is still a good start - when he was a boy, he met Sun Jijiu in front of the emperor's study, and unlike Sun Jijiu, who met the emperor with a large group of people, Zhen Yingjia met alone Holy.

What came down was the approval document for him to study in the Imperial College, which was written by the eunuch Dai Quan, who was in charge of the Si Li Jian.

Furthermore, Kang He's eunuchs came to him from time to time.Of course outsiders can't tell that this is Kang He's subordinate, they can only tell that this is an eunuch, so in Sun Jijiu's eyes, his relationship with the palace is unimaginably close.

Of course, the most important thing is that he, Zhen Yingjia, is not a piece of mud that can't be supported on the wall, he can be regarded as a material that can be made.

But there may be something else, for example, he secretly smacked his predecessor Li Jijiu.

No matter how harmonious the two leaders in the same leadership position are on the surface, they must be fighting for power in private.

Zhen Yingjia held Sun Jijiu's latest reply in his hand, and it mentioned "read more about Mencius" again, thinking that the exam questions this time should come from Mencius.

As soon as he sat in the study, Ji Chu came in with tea.

"Master, Prince Teng Wang is here today."

Zhen Yingjia raised her eyebrows, "What did you say?"

Ji Chu put the things on the table with a smile, "I invited him to the side hall. When he came, he was quite angry. After drinking two cups of good West Lake Longjing, his anger subsided."

"You dare to let him in when I'm not here?" Zhen Yingjia asked with a smile.

"Your Master Wang can only come in if the master is not here."

The master and servant looked at each other and smiled, Zhen Yingjia asked again, "Have you ever—"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Ji Chu continued, "Say it, Zhang San, the concierge, said, 'It turns out that people in the capital can come directly to the door without handing over the post? I have learned a lot today', and then Mr. Wang's His complexion is exactly the same as when he first came."

"Okay!" Zhen Yingjia laughed and said, "Go to the cashier to pay the money, five taels per person."

"Thank you, Master!" Ji Chu hurriedly saluted, and said regretfully, "I'm afraid that Lord Wang will be stimulated too much, what if he won't come tomorrow."

Zhen Yingjia laughed again, "If he never comes to the door again, I will reward you another 100 taels!"

"It can be seen that this money is really hard to earn."

However, it was mostly because he was humiliated by the concierge at Zhen's mansion that day. In the next half a month, Wang Ziteng really did not come to the door. Of course, even if he handed over the post first, he still would not see Zhen Yingjia.

First of all, he wants to study, which is a reason that is so legitimate that it can hardly be more legitimate.

Secondly, the Crown Princess is going to be buried, and Zhen Yingjia is going to see the ceremony, so fasting and bathing are essential to cultivate peace of mind.

On the third day of June, Zhen Yingjia went to the Ancestral Temple again. Because the burial time calculated by Qin Tianjian was in the early morning of the fourth day, he went to the Ancestral Temple on the third day of the third day, and stayed overnight to avoid traveling the next day.

It was already getting dark, Zhen Yingjia finished washing up, holding herbal tea to cool off the heat, and poked her gold finger open, so he would take a look at what the two women had said if he had nothing to do these days.

Speaking of which, he still didn't believe that the crown prince planned to let the two wives go just like that. They obviously knew some great secret. Zhen Yingjia couldn't figure out how the crown prince could keep the two of them until now.

So even though Kang He was watching inside, Zhen Yingjia still went to scan whenever he had time. He had an idea in his heart to lure the snake out of the hole, that is, the crown prince would always attack these two people one day. The crown prince has held so many secrets in his heart, and he will always show his feet.

Zhen Yingjia watched for a while, and found that the two of them were not moving at all, they were just talking about "burning incense" and "wiping the altar". Just as she was about to turn off the gold finger and go to sleep, she found an unusual piece of news.

Mrs. Qi: "Prince Princess... will be buried tomorrow."

Mrs. Zhou: "The two of us have finally lived up to our trust and survived until this day."

Even if she couldn't see the expressions and movements, Zhen Yingjia could still imagine the helplessness and sigh in Mrs. Zhou's tone.

Zhen Yingjia was shocked, what does it mean to live up to the trust!What does it mean to survive until this day!Could it be that the princess had expected it long ago!

Or all of this... is the plan of the Crown Princess!

Zhen Yingjia turned over and sat up, staring at his golden fingers.

The conversation between the two women began again.

Mrs. Qi: "Shut up! Be careful that the walls have ears."

Mrs. Zhou: "Look at who else is outside."

Another moment of silence.

Mrs. Qi: "Master Zhao wants us to die, and the crown prince wants to save us..."

Mrs. Zhou: "You can rest in peace—"

Pausing for a moment, Zhen Yingjia felt that the woman surnamed Zhou had gone to burn incense, and she said again: "You risked your own life, and at least you didn't let that bitch—"

He stopped before he finished speaking.

Zhen Yingjia anxiously wished she could spread her wings and fly to those two women.

What does it mean to "take your own life!", and what kind of words are followed by the bitch!

But Zhen Yingjia waited for a long time, but the two of them didn't say any more important things, and then the conversation between the two started again, such as: the crown princess likes red the most, the crown princess likes sweet things, etc. It doesn't make any sense.

Zhen Yingjia was so anxious that he couldn't sleep at all, he kept walking back and forth in the room.

What exactly does this mean.

According to the conversation between the two women, it was Mrs. Zhao who wanted them killed?The prince wants to keep them?

And why do you say that the princess took her own life? Wasn't the princess killed by someone?She died on her own initiative?

suicide?

Zhen Yingjia was a little stunned by her speculation.

What kind of deep-rooted hatred would make a person use his own name to make a plot, will——Zhen Yingjia thought of the slut that the two women said again, and knew it was Mrs. Zhao without thinking too much.

What did Mrs. Zhao do to make the Crown Princess hate her so much!I hate it so much that I would rather not live!

Zhen Yingjia couldn't figure it out.

At this time, his door was suddenly knocked open, and Zhiyin rushed in with a pale face.

After seeing Zhen Yingjia, he immediately rushed into his arms, his voice full of tears.Zhen Yingjia hugged her daughter tightly, and felt her whole body trembling involuntarily.

"what happened?"

"I, I see." Zhiyin trembled as she spoke, "Princess, what is missing in her room!"
