Jiazhu of the Red Chamber

It is said that Jia Zhu and Shui Rong got Wu Zhaoqi's help when they had nowhere to go, and they lived in the Lingnan Palace. Jia Zhu never expected that Wu Zhaoqi, who has always been quiet and cold, would suddenly say something sincere. Sincerely, but I have no intention to get involved with him too much, although I know that it will hurt people if I say it flirtatiously, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain,

Still don't want to give him a little thought.

Wu Zhaoqi seemed to know the answer already. Although he was a little disappointed, he didn't continue to pester him. He just said, "I've spoken out what's in my heart today, and it's a lot more comfortable. You just need to remember that no matter when, the gate of Lingnan Palace is always open. open for you."

Jia Zhu suddenly thought of the scene in the nightmare, which was so similar to the present, and couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. She looked at Wu Zhaoqi with gratitude in her eyes, and said, "Thank you, Brother Wu."

Wu Zhaoqi didn't notice his strangeness, and talked about his experience after parting from the capital. It turned out that two years ago he received a secret report from Lingnan that the king of Lingnan was critically ill and asked him to return quickly. Originally, there were secret sentries in the capital to monitor him all the time. At that time, the situation in the court was turbulent, and he had always followed the rules, so he neglected to monitor, so he found a chance to escape with Miao Yun.When the court found out, he had already returned to Lingnan. Soon, the King of Lingnan died of illness, and he took over the throne.

Jia Zhu was calm when he heard what he said, but thinking of the hardships of Zhong Congyu's succession to the throne, she also knew that the process in the middle might not be as peaceful as he said.He also heard him say: "I heard that King Beijing came to Sichuan to manage the border government affairs, but I didn't expect you to follow."

Jia Zhu explained: "My mansion donated the county magistrate for me, and I was transferred to the Jiedushi's mansion after King Beijing came."

Wu Zhaoqi's heart moved, and he asked tentatively, "Did you quarrel with the emperor?"

Jia Zhu hurriedly covered up: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Wu Zhaoqi suddenly smiled and said: "Yes, I made a slip of the tongue, don't be angry."

Seeing that he was honest, Jia Zhu felt embarrassed, sighed lowly, and said bluntly: "It's my fault. You treat me honestly. I shouldn't deceive myself. I really broke up with him, so I hid in Shuzhong. I have already engaged for me, and we will get married after the Chinese New Year, because I don't want you to misunderstand me, I just said this."

Wu Zhaoqi gave an "en" and said, "Don't worry, I won't force you."

Seeing his seriousness, Jia Zhu laughed and said, "Brother Wu, I didn't expect you to be joking."

Wu Zhaoqi stood up and said goodbye: "Okay, you rest early, and I will take you for a stroll tomorrow."

Accompanied by Wu Zhaoqi, King of Lingnan, the next few days will be much more convenient, and he will not mention what happened that night again, as if it never happened, Jia Zhu feels at ease.After visiting several scenic spots, Wu Zhaoqi personally sent the four of them to the border of Yunnan. Before parting, he took a deep look at Jia Zhu and said, "Don't wrong yourself, remember what I said that night." Follow the entourage to leave.

This trip lasted for more than a month. After Shui Rong came back, he was busy with government affairs, and even if he returned to Kyoto, he would not be able to catch up with the New Year. He also thought that it was cold in the north, and he was used to staying in Sichuan, so he was a little afraid of the cold, so the two of them It was agreed that each of them wrote a letter to the family to report their safety, and agreed to go back in the spring.

Chinese New Year outside is not as lively as in the mansion, but with a group of sergeants guarding the frontier, it has a special flavor, especially when drunk, some young soldiers weep silently because of homesickness, Jia Zhu feels uncomfortable looking at it, and then thinks The grandmother in the family is very old, and she can't help feeling sad.

It took another two months before Jia Zhu left for Beijing. Shui Rong didn't accompany him back because he couldn't leave due to political affairs. .

Not to mention the trivial matters along the way, and it was said that it was March when Jia Zhu returned to the capital, and it was inevitable to greet his family when he saw his family. Three days later, Jia Zhu was about to marry Miss Li, and Jia Zhu's joy at returning home was halved, but this was a marriage he had promised, so he had to reluctantly cope with it, and he was inevitably a little nervous and uneasy.

In a blink of an eye, the day of great joy came, and all the trivial matters in the mansion were taken care of by a dedicated person. He, the bridegroom, was the most relaxed one, and he just had to follow Jia Zheng to greet guests. For some reason, he suddenly remembered Xichun back then. The scene at the time of his mother's funeral was strikingly similar to what he is now, with one good thing and one good thing, but his current state of mind is completely different.At that time, he was aware of the problems in the mansion, and he wanted to improve it by himself, but in just three years, his mood had changed. He just wanted to stay away from everything in the capital and live a free and unfettered life.Is the change of mood just because of that nightmare?Jia Zhu has also thought about this question countless times, but unfortunately, after much deliberation, she can't think of a reason, and she is still at a loss.

With a dazed expression on his face, he obediently obeyed everyone's orders, worshiped and toasted, and then was pushed into the bridal chamber.

The bridal chamber was set in the courtyard where Jia Zhu used to live, and everything was changed to red, the red quilt, the red window paper, and the red hijab. He couldn't see anything but red in front of his eyes. In the house, his nurse, His girl, everything he was familiar with since childhood was different from before, Jia Zhu suddenly felt at a loss, wishing to return to Shuzhong immediately, everything here made him uneasy.

Xi Niang stuffed the title into his hands, and said with a smile, "Master, quickly take off the red hijab."

Jia Zhu took it in a daze, and was about to pick it up, when suddenly there was a commotion outside the door, and a group of people poured in, holding trays in their hands.The leading eunuch announced the decree, saying that these were rewards from the empresses in the palace, and asked Jia Zhu to enter the palace immediately to thank them.

Jia Zhu wanted to change into his wedding clothes before entering the palace, but the eunuch said no, the empress was waiting, and told him to hurry over.Jia Zhu had no choice but to go in her wedding dress, and as soon as she went out, she saw a warm sedan chair parked in the yard. The little eunuch lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, and Jia Zhu sat in.

It wasn't until after getting off the sedan chair that someone lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, and Jia Zhu followed that person into a room, that he suddenly woke up after a day of sleepwalking.

This is where!This is not a harem at all!

Jia Zhu has also been to and from the palace many times, although she hasn't been here for more than a year, she still remembers where it is!This is clearly the Hall of Mental Cultivation, where Zhong Congyu usually rests!

He knelt down in a daze, with his head on the ground, the door behind him was closed inaudibly, and his heart began to sink: the rewards, summons, and rewards from the empress are all deceitful, it is obviously Zhong Congyu Find an excuse to call him in.

He didn't dare to look up, today was his day of great joy, the young lady of the Li family was still waiting for him, that was the wife he was marrying, and Zhong Congyu was the emperor, his sister's husband.He didn't know what Zhong Congyu called him to do, it was obviously over, why did he have to see him tonight, sooner or later?

His knees were numb and he was sweating, but he didn't dare to raise his head, he only hoped that Zhong Congyu would spare him!He has been hiding for a year, why not let him go?
