Chapter 334: Red Mansion (9)
Xue Juan laughed: "Why do I think Jia Baoyu is very pitiful!" Isn't his father distressed? ”
"His mother doesn't have the energy to take care of him, and his father saw him catch Zhou and Rouge, and it's too late to be grateful for my arrangement, how can he object." Yao Huang smiled, "But this kid is really smart, although he put most of his mind on miscellaneous studies, he still passed the children's exam." ”
"Jia Baoyu doesn't like to read, so you must have put a lot of effort into it, right?"
"It's nothing. This kid likes to do poetry, calligraphy and painting, so I told him that after becoming a Jinshi and becoming a Hanlin, not only do you not have to worry about economic articles, but you can read whatever you want and do whatever you want, which is called elegance. If you don't have fame but are obsessed with miscellaneous studies, it's called a plaything. So the boy was bent on being admitted to Hanlin, lest his father always teach him a lesson. If it weren't for the fact that he was still young and afraid that he would be weak, he would have to take the Xiucai exam now. ”
Xue Juan gave two thumbs up: "You have the ability to fool people, you are absolutely amazing!" ”
Yao Huang smiled, took out a medical book from the space and handed it to Xue Juan: "This medical book, you can take it to study, if you don't understand, you can ask me at any time." ”
Xue Juan took the medical book, only to see the six big characters "Essence of Hu's Medicine" written on the cover, and asked with a smile: "Your surname in your previous life was Hu?" ”
"You turn the second page, and the name of the person who wrote the book is written on it."
Xue Juan did so, and then she raised a hand and rubbed her eyes violently: "I'll go, it's not the person I think, right?" ”
"Exactly who you think."
"Your golden finger is ......," Xue Juan didn't know what to say, "It won't be the "Nine Yang Divine Skill" and "Nine Yin True Scripture" that are practiced, right?" ”
"It's not. I practiced "Northern Shengong". ”
“…… Compared to you, I find that the great god of crossing is too stingy with me. ”
“……”
February is cold. The capital is a lively scene. Students all over the world have been studying for ten or even decades. In order to be from February 9th to 15th, if it is the title of the gold list, the carp will jump into the dragon gate from now on, and the future will be open. On the ninth day of the first lunar month, Jia Lian and Jia Zhu took several of the children of the side branch of the Jia family who were promoted in the examination to the Gongyuan together.
"Madam, the second master will definitely go to high school." Ginkgo said playfully.
Yao Huang glanced at Ginkgo, she didn't care if Jia Lian would go to high school, Jia Lian was the heir of the Guogong Mansion. The examination is nothing more than a licking of the head: "You have been idle lately? ”
"What's the matter, the slave has been very busy lately." Ginkgo hurriedly shouted injustice.
"What are you up to?"
"The slave maid helped the second master and Uncle Zhu collect the information of this scientific examiner." Ginkgo had a "praise me, praise me" expression on her face.
Yao Huang laughed: "You have really become an intelligence chief." ”
Ginkgo was very proud: "That is, there are people I know among almost all the descendants of rich and noble families in the capital, and no one's news can come faster and more comprehensive than me." ”
"Alright, don't get scared. Let's talk about it, in addition to these students who are rushing to take the exam, what else is new in the capital? Yao Huang asked.
Yin Xing thought for a while, and said one by one: "The eldest prince of the Duke of Qi married a wife, and the woman turned out to be the daughter of a minor official...... Zhong Shangshu's little son fell from a horse...... The caravan of Akane brought a lot of interesting goods...... The emperor sealed the harem. There are several more concubines......"
"Wait, you said that the emperor has sealed the harem?" Yao Huang asked suddenly.
Ginkgo nodded: "Yes." I heard that Lord Zhou's family was holding a birthday banquet for Mrs. Zhou, and suddenly a eunuch came to Mrs. Zhou's house to announce the decree, which scared Lord Zhou's family enough. Later, I learned that the girl of the Zhou family had been named a concubine, and the family was happy again. ”
I'll go, does the emperor like to tease the concubine's family so much? When Jia Yuanchun was concubine in the original book, wasn't the Jia family having a banquet? As a result, the emperor's appearance scared the entire Jia family a lot.
"Jade Cicada, go and call Brother Yun to me!"
The emperor's harem should soon be promulgated to let the concubines marry the concubines, and the shops controlled by the royal family will definitely benefit from the garden, and their own family will follow behind quietly to drink some broth.
Instructed Jia Yun to buy all kinds of wood and antique paintings and calligraphy, and in Jia Yun's completely puzzled gaze, Yao Huang smiled incomprehensibly.
The results of the spring festival came out quickly, Jia Lian scored more than 100 in the exam, and Jia Zhu scored more than 200 in the exam, and the rankings were not high, but it was rare for the noble family to pass the two jinshi, and the two brothers Jia Yu and Jia Zheng were so happy that they went crazy, and they held a running water banquet for three days to celebrate. Yao Huang let the two brothers make trouble, the two brothers have been a lot more honest in recent years, and now let them be happy. In the eyes of the emperor, there is no one more interesting than the Jia family. Even if the two brothers make trouble again, the emperor will not take the Jia family under the knife.
After the palace test, one of the two brothers was released, and the other entered the Hanlin Academy. Jia Zhu is sincere, and the relatively simple environment of the Hanlin Academy is just right for him; Jia Lian became the magistrate of a county, he was smart and sleek and flexible, Yao Huang was very relieved of him, but he still found two experienced masters for him.
Lin Ruhai passed away as in the original book, and before he died, he divided the family wealth into three parts: half of the family wealth was dedicated to the emperor, asking the emperor to take care of the orphan girl he left behind; A quarter was entrusted to his friend, so that the friend could use the property as Sister Lin's dowry when she got married; The rest was carried into the Rongguo Mansion with great fanfare - this was all Xue Juan's idea, although Yao Huang was there, the Rongguo Mansion was no longer the Rongguo Mansion in the book, but the influence of the original book was too great, and Xue Juan was always on guard.
Not long after Lin Ruhai died, Shi Taijun also died. This old lady is very strong, and she has been unable to move or speak for more than ten years, and she has lasted so long. Then, Mrs. Wang also went. By keeping filial piety, Rongguofu stopped all kinds of social activities and faded out of everyone's sight in a low-key manner. Compared with the low-key of Rongguo Mansion, other families in Beijing are lively. The emperor issued the will of the concubine to save the relatives, and the family of the daughter with a position has begun to repair the garden with great fanfare, and the silver money is spent like flowing water, most of it goes into the emperor's pocket, and a small part flows into the Rongguo Mansion. Jia Yun's reverence for Yao Huang reached a new height.
Qin Keqing married into the Mansion of Qi, and the atmosphere of the Mansion of Qi was much better than that of Ning Mansion in the original book, and Qin Keqing's life was also comfortable. The emperor knew her true identity and acquiesced in her existence, and the Duke of Qi was taken care of by the emperor and the royal family, and the children and grandchildren had their own way out, which made other families envious. Mrs. Hou sighed for her best friend, the original scenery was their Jia family, but unfortunately, Jia Rong's kid was not blessed. Yao Huang just smiled, she didn't want to get involved in royal affairs at all. (To be continued......)
