Chapter 19: Good Fortune
The shopkeeper of the opera garden and the troupe owner squeezed in desperately, and the troupe owner pulled down the curtain on the stage table, wrapped Zhou Jianning, jumped on his feet, shouted at the top of his voice, and dragged Zhou Jianning, who was still turning in circles and bumping around.
Such a fresh and lively event instantly stirred up the entire capital, spreading all over the capital like the wind, and was spread by the excited crowd word of mouth, adding fuel and vinegar, and countless more unbearable versions were transmitted.
Before Zhou Jianning was sent back to the Hou Mansion of Zhenning by the shopkeeper of the opera garden, three or five versions of the incident had been spread throughout the Hou Mansion, and the Hou of Zhenning was like thunder, and directly let Zhou Jianning kneel outside the ancestral hall.
Zhou Jianning was so frightened that he was almost naked, and he didn't even kneel for half an hour, so he fainted straight upright.
The milk desperately dragged Zhou Jianning back to the courtyard, took out the private money, and hurriedly asked the doctor to come.
Zhou Jingran and Cheng Ke picked up the eldest prince, there were still two days away from the capital, in the evening, rested at the post station, the two accompanied the eldest prince to eat, went back to the courtyard next to him, bathed and washed, and looked at the line newspaper sent by the capital.
Cheng Ke took out the tissue paper in the box, glanced at it, immediately opened his eyes wide, hurriedly swept it quickly, looked at Zhou Jingran with a strange face, and handed over the tissue paper,
"Look at this, it's too ......"
Cheng Ke couldn't help laughing, Zhou Jingran hurriedly took it, looked at it quickly, raised his head, looked at Cheng Ke, and without saying a word, he leaned back and fell on the couch with a smile, patted the couch hard, and shouted:
"It's a pity that we missed such a bustle"
Cheng Ke also laughed on the couch.
The two of them laughed enough, Cheng Ke took a sip of tea from the cup, calmed his breath, waved his hand to rebuke Qingping and Luo Chuan and others, looked at Zhou Jingran, smiled and whispered:
"I always feel a little strange about this, maybe there is something behind it."
Zhou Jingran nodded,
"Well, no matter how unbearable this bastard is, there is always a little bit of shame, I will never do such a thing, I'm afraid it's too stupid, someone will calculate it, let people check it."
Cheng Ke nodded and agreed, raised his voice and called Qianyue to come in, and commanded in a low voice, Qianyue agreed, turned around and went out.
In the study outside the Zhenning Hou's mansion, the Zhenning Hou sat on the top chair with his head hanging and his face like ashes, staring blankly at the fold covered with bright yellow satin in front of him.
King Cheng has not yet entered the capital, impeaching him for not being careful in governing the family, teaching his son to be at a loss, hurting morals and customs, and hurting the virtues of the four virtues and righteousness and being heard of were handed into the palace, and the emperor asked the chamberlain to seal the fold and let him defend himself, but this thing that everyone in the capital knows, how to argue?
The wording of this excerpt is so fierce, this self-defense is slightly wrong, I am afraid that the title of the Marquis of Zhenning will not be kept, and the inheritance of the ancestors, if it is buried in his own hands like this, it will be death, and such a big crime will not be redeemed
Zhenning Hou sat upright, and the eldest young master Zhou Jiangong looked at his father worriedly, and said in a low voice:
"Father, you have to think of something."
"Method? What else can I think of? ”
Zhenning Hou leaned on his back and asked weakly, Zhou Jiangong thought about it and said in a low voice:
"This matter, now I can only ask for King Jing, the emperor favors King Jing the most, if King Jing is willing to say something for us, this matter can be big or small."
Zhenninghou seemed to have lived a breath, and said in a loud voice:
"What you said is that what you said is that if King Jing is willing to say something, it will naturally work, but"
Zhenninghou paused suddenly, looked at Zhou Jiangong, and said with a bitter face:
"If this matter is begged by King Jing, then in the future, won't our family and King Jing be more and more torn apart?"
"Father, don't think so far ahead, let's get through the difficulties in front of you, if you can't get through this pass, what else can't be opened, our Hou Mansion will ...... No, let's keep the title first, and then talk about the future. ”
Zhen Ninghou nodded, his back bent even more, and said in a low voice:
"Let's get over the difficulties in front of you first, you let people inquire, has King Jing returned home, alas, just send the jade carving that won thousands of miles."
"Father, that decisive piece is specially made for King Cheng, if so, will it be inappropriate to send it to King Jing?"
Zhou Jiangong said hesitantly, and the Marquis of Zhenning let out a long sigh,
"I also know that some are not suitable, but it can only be like this, in our house, you don't know, in the past few years, it has become more and more difficult, and I sold two big Zhuangzi in the south, so I can scrape together enough silver to buy such a thing, at this time, where can I find a tens of thousands of taels of silver to buy things? Even if there is silver, it will be too late, alas, if this gift is light, I am afraid that it will not be used, King Jing has never seen anything, ordinary objects, how can I put it in my eyes? ”
Zhou Jiangong shrugged his shoulders and sighed,
"Then I'll let people inquire, if I come back, I'll accompany my father?"
Zhenninghou nodded weakly, and Zhou Jiangong got up and went out.
As soon as Zhou Jingran returned to King Jing's Mansion from the palace, the Marquis of Zhenning took Zhou Jiangong and carried the jade carving that won thousands of miles, and came to the door to ask to see him.
Zhou Jingran sent away Zhenning Hou's father and son, stood in front of the jade carving, squinted his eyes and looked at the jade carving, snorted coldly, and commanded without looking back:
"Please come to the house."
The little servant agreed, hurried out of the mansion, asked for a horse, and galloped towards the Runan Palace.
Not long after, the little guy led Cheng Ke into the inner study, and in the middle of the inner study, there was the jade carving that won thousands of miles.
Zhou Jingran was lying lazily on the rocking chair, and when he saw Cheng Ke coming in, he raised his hand, pointed to the jade carving and said:
"Sitting at home behind closed doors, good things fall from the sky, you see, the lord has received such a thing"
Cheng Ke circled around the jade carving, shook his clothes, sat on the rocking chair next to Zhou Jingran, took a sip of the tea served by the little servant, pointed to the jade carving and said:
"The jade is okay, the carving skills are passable, the things are okay, is this decisive thousand miles for you? This person is also a brainless person, this thing is suitable for King Cheng. ”
Zhou Jingran squinted at Cheng Ke and said slowly:
"Guess who sent it?"
Cheng Ke was stunned, turned his head to look at Zhou Jingran and asked:
"Something to ask you for?"
Zhou Jingran nodded, Cheng Ke was stunned, got up suddenly, circled around the jade carving twice, stomped his feet, sat back on the chair, and leaned back with a sigh.
Zhou Jingran turned his head to look at Cheng Ke, wrinkled his brows and said:
"Your uncle's family is actually a ...... The old Hou Ye was pretending to be confused, and now this town Ning Hou is really confused."
Cheng Ke sighed and nodded, Zhou Jingran pointed to the jade carving, and there was some coldness in his voice,
"This is our good luck, but it happened that the day before yesterday, the eldest brother was on such an excerpt, if it weren't for this, this thing, maybe it will be sent to the Chengwang Mansion today, the eldest brother ......"
Zhou Jingran gritted his teeth with hatred,
"Big brother can put this broken thing in the foyer, put it at the gate, and let everyone in the capital see it."
Cheng Ke picked up the cup, took a sip of tea slowly, turned his head to look at Zhou Jingran, and said slowly:
"You better let people keep this thing, maybe it will be used in a few years, but it also saves you a birthday gift, you have to send it over as soon as possible, otherwise, it will not be sent out, but copied out."
Zhou Jingran looked at Cheng Ke in amazement, stayed for a moment, jumped up suddenly, pointed at Cheng Ke, and was speechless angrily.
"You, you, you"
Zhou Jingran stuttered for a long time before scolding,
"You bastard"
Cheng Ke stretched out his legs comfortably, put his hands behind his head, squinted at Zhou Jingran, and continued slowly:
"After the New Year, I want to discuss with my father, send someone to the south to clean up the old house, send my grandmother and mother to live there first, or let the princess follow first? I'm on the edge of Jade Lake and let someone build you a house again? ”
Zhou Jingran pointed at Cheng Ke, his fingers kept pointing, but he couldn't say a word, and after a while, he sat down heavily in the rocking chair, waved his hand and said:
"Let me think about it, think about it again, Xiao Ke, if we really go that way, we will never go back"
Cheng Ke stood up and looked at Zhou Jingran who was about to speak, Zhou Jingran hurriedly waved his hand and said:
"I know, I know, there's no going back now."
Cheng Ke lay back again, the two sat in silence for a long time, Zhou Jingran raised his voice and called someone in, pointing to the jade carving impatiently and ordered:
"Take this thing out and put it in the storeroom, don't let the master see it again"
A few little guys carefully carried the jade carving out, Zhou Jingran snorted and drank tea, Cheng Ke looked at him, with a smile on his face, and said in a low voice:
"Qianyue has a letter there, that Zhou Jianning, he was really calculated, even the person who calculated him, you must not guess"
Zhou Jingran suddenly changed his interest, straightened up, and his eyes lit up,
"Speak Fast, Say Talk"
"That night, Qianyue rushed back to the capital overnight and began to investigate this matter, Zhou Jianning was kicked out of the small dark room where the troupe stacked costumes, and there was originally a door separated from the stage in the dark, that day, the door was secretly unloaded, this matter must be related to the people in the theater, but coincidentally, the day after this incident, a guy in the theater resigned from the owner's house, saying that he was going home to get married."
Cheng Ke paused, and Zhou Jingran shook his head slightly,
"There are no three hundred taels of silver here."
"But no, Qianyue sent someone to find this guy, and soon found it, and really went home, with a beautiful woman, before he did much, the two of them fell clean, the woman is a Ji family, and the guy got along, and has always wanted to redeem herself from the good, but not enough silver, a few days ago, someone found her, allowed her to redeem herself, and then allowed her five hundred taels of silver, let her hook Zhou Jianning to the flower theater, when the play started at night, put this Zhou Jianning naked on the stage, these two people, and really came up with a way, Make up this joke that stirs the capital. ”
Zhou Jingran raised his eyebrows, surprised, Cheng Ke gently patted the arm of the chair, sighed and said:
"The unexpected is yet to come."
