Chapter 309: Heartbreak
When Baochai just heard that the eldest prince had entered the mansion to marry Daiyu today, she immediately knew that something might be wrong, so she ordered Ying'er to find Xue Pan and ask him to stop Jia Baoyu.
Although it may not be very useful, for her, the only one who can direct the movement is her brother.
It turned out to be really useless, because before Ying'er could return to Xue's house, Jia Baoyu came back.
When Jia Baoyu passed under the Wuyuan, she knew. It's just that she heard that Jia Baoyu was leading soldiers, so she didn't dare to step forward. Coupled with Jia Baoyu and the others, she couldn't catch up.
By the time she arrived at the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Jia Baoyu had already left again.
Originally, she was hesitant to enter the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, after all, even if she was Jia Baoyu's personal soldier, she was also a foreign man. However, it was later found that Jia Baoyu's personal soldiers were very regular, just standing outside the door of the museum, holding the handle of the knife, hanging his head motionless, and as long as the people inside let him in, he would not look at it at a glance.
So she followed Yingchun and others into the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
The sisters waited together in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, comforting Daiyu while waiting for news from outside.
When Jia Baoyu's personal soldiers withdrew, they knew that the matter was over, but then the news came that Jia Baoyu was injured and hit by the sword, which scared them a lot.
They are all girls with fine clothes and fine food, and they have rarely heard of such a terrifying thing, let alone what happened to Jia Baoyu?
However, they also knew that Rongguo Mansion must be busy now, and it was not good for them to go out to make trouble again, so they waited in Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
They knew that Jia Baoyu would definitely come back. Because Tanchun said it, Jia Baoyu said before leaving, ask Daiyu to wait for her to come back.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Jia Baoyu to really come back.
They were all a little scared, afraid of seeing Jia Baoyu who was carried in. Especially her, like Daiyu, she has already identified Jia Baoyu, if Jia Baoyu has something to do, what will she do in the future?
Lucky! Jia Baoyu doesn't seem to be in a bad situation, no, can he still joke with Xichun......
She stepped forward and looked at Jia Baoyu with bright eyes, and Jia Baoyu also looked at her.
She saw that Jia Baoyu was no different, and even smiled, but her complexion was still pale, and she knew that the injury was real.
A long-standing tear fell on the clothes on her chest, she hurriedly wiped the corner of her eye with her little thumb on the side of her face, and then looked up and said, "It's okay, let's go into the house first." ”
The kind of appearance that is obviously very worried and sad, but still shows generosity and calmness, and hides his emotions, is touching and distressing.
Jia Baoyu's heart suddenly warmed. For such a girl, it's worth it to die, not to mention a small injury?
Quietly answered her, Jia Baoyu didn't say much, looked around at the sisters, took all the eyes full of concern in their eyes, and then bypassed them, walked to the front of the steps, climbed the steps, came to the most beautiful, the most delicate, and the person with the most tears, and laughed softly: "I'm back." ”
The tone of his voice was the same as he had said to her when she was lying on her side on the couch before.
Daiyu couldn't hold back her tears anymore and started crying. She was very delicate, and when her heart was in a state of great sorrow, she would have palpitations, so she had to put one hand on the railing, the other hand covered her chest, and said with sadness: "You, how can you be so stupid, if something happens to you, call me, so how can I live?" ”
Jia Baoyu knows that her emotions fluctuate a lot, and she dares to reveal her true feelings like this, so what is Jia Baoyu afraid of? So he gently hugged her and comforted: "Don't worry, I'm fine, don't you often say that I'm cunning, how can a cunning person be so easy to get into trouble?" ”
If Jia Baoyu said this in the past, she would definitely take a sip of him, and then become proud, but now she can only be moved and blame herself.
She felt that Jia Baoyu's injury was all because of her.
Therefore, the crying is even more sad.
Jia Baoyu didn't want her to cry all the time, let go of her, wiped her tears with her right hand, and quipped: "Okay, don't cry, you see the sisters are laughing at you." ”
Although Daiyu could catch a glimpse of Yingchun and others out of the corner of her eyes, she didn't have the heart to pay attention to it, her eyes were on Jia Baoyu's body.
The handsome and pale face turned out to be concerned and doting. Seeing that he was just soothing her with his right hand, and his left hand had not moved, he knew that he was injured on the left side, so he gently touched Jia Baoyu's left hand, and Pear Blossom said with concern: "Where is the injury?" Let me see~"
"On the shoulder."
Jia Baoyu took her hand, looked back at Yingchun and the others, and said, "Let's go, go into the house and talk." ”
......
The eldest prince and the second prince came to Rongguo Mansion one after another, and this kind of news can't be concealed if you want to.
Moreover, an even more shocking news was immediately spread from Ning Rong Street to all directions:
The eldest prince came to ask for marriage, but was rejected by the Jia family, and in anger, he instructed the guards to cut Jia Baoyu with a sword, if it wasn't for the second prince who arrived in time and saved Jia Baoyu, he was afraid that Jia Baoyu would have died on the spot.
This news has been confirmed by some people from the eunuchs under the second prince.
In the capital, rumors spread for a while. All kinds of complaints against the eldest prince were transmitted from the top to the Houmen Mansion to the peddlers' pawns.
The academies of Guozijian and Tai Academy are naturally the main force of this voice!
What is the literati study? The scientific examination will enter the office, and the general will enter the phase, and become the first-class person in the Shinong industry and commerce, that is, the superior person.
It can be said that characters like Jia Baoyu are their ultimate target. But such a character was actually bullied by a waste prince to this point!
This has completely stimulated the bottom line of the students and is shaking their faith.
It's tolerable, it's unbearable!
As a result, in Beijing, a debate on the eternal topic of "establishing a long and virtuous person" was once again sung in various literary circles in Beijing.
It's just that the Lichang faction, which used to be able to compete with the Lixian faction, this time, they were scolded for their blood, and many of them didn't even dare to go out of their homes again.
They even had deep doubts about the doctrines of the past.
When someone like the eldest prince ascends to the throne, will there really be a way out for the country? They have studied hard for ten years before they have the opportunity to leap into the blood of the dragon's gate, can they still have the opportunity to throw away?
In Daming Palace, there is another person who has been scolded like them, and he is the culprit who caused them to be scolded, and the eldest prince Yuan Jingxiu is also.
"Father, really, you didn't see how arrogant and domineering Jia Baoyu was, and you didn't put your son's ministers in your eyes at all, if it weren't for your sons' actions, I'm afraid that I wouldn't be able to leave the Rongguo Mansion today, and I won't be able to see my father when I come back."
The eldest prince's voice was aggrieved. It was obvious that he was frightened today, and in turn, his most beloved father still wanted to scold him.
"Idiot, I ask you, what are you doing in Rongguo Mansion?"
"I'll go, I'll go, by the way, I heard that Jia Zheng will go to Shandong to serve as a Shandong academic administrator in the near future, Erchen thinks that a province will study politics, be in charge of a province's Wenhua students, and focus on the middle and heavy, Erchen is going to remind him that he must be diligent and self-denying after he arrives, and he must not have the grace of his father!" The eldest prince has a heartbeat.
Emperor Jingtai above looked at him in a daze, and suddenly felt so tired.
Feelings, he thinks that his father is such a waste, and he doesn't even know about him going to Jia's house to ask for relatives with such fanfare? Many times, he wondered if his son was deliberately pretending to be so stupid in front of him in order to win his pity.
It's a pity that after so many years, he can't find a flaw......
After a few breaths of staring straight at his sincere gaze, Emperor Jingtai gave up the exploration and said, "I finally ask you, is Jia Baoyu really injured, did you order someone to do it?" ”
"He was injured, and he had a long hole, but it had nothing to do with Erchen, he made it himself. Erchen is not stupid, he is also the younger brother of Jia Guifei's mother, how dare Erchen kill him? ”
The eldest prince swore an oath and tried his best to clear his relationship.
Emperor Jingtai exhaled, "Okay, I know. You evil obstacle, I have already selected a candidate for the side concubine for you, that is, the daughter of Lord Wang, the capital of the nine provinces, you go back to prepare for marriage, if this matter goes wrong again, I will not spare you! ”
When the eldest prince heard this, he muttered: "If I marry Wang Ziteng's daughter, won't I be related to Jia Baoyu?" How can I take revenge in the future......"
"Huh~?"
"Okay, son-in-law retire!"
The eldest prince got up neatly, turned around and hunched out of the south study.
After he left, Emperor Jingtai's face became gloomy.
Dai Quan came over to serve him tea, and when he saw his face, he said: "Your Majesty, don't be angry, the slave thinks that His Highness is not lying." ”
"I know."
"Then Your Majesty, ...... this?"
"Hmph, he's a fool, knowing that the Jia family and the second child are getting closer, and he still went to the door to ask for a kiss? Isn't that stupid?
The rabbit is anxious and bites, not to mention a young and vigorous person like Jia Baoyu. ”
Although Emperor Jingtai was scolding the eldest prince in the open, Dai Quan knew that Emperor Jingtai was dissatisfied with the Jia family.
He is not afraid, although he is close to the Jia family, but the capital is deep and the relationship is complicated, how can someone who is who can sort out the relationship in one or two sentences?
Except for a very small number of Second Princes like Qian Zhao who don't even want their lives, everyone else is actually just a willing support.
After all, it was Emperor Jingtai who was sitting on the dragon chair now.
As Jia Baoyu said that day, everyone in the world is His Majesty's subjects, and their allegiance will always be to the emperor.
Otherwise, Emperor Jingtai would not have supported the prince to ascend the throne, he is Jia Guifei's maternal uncle and in-law of the Jia family! Re-kiss!
Besides, who can say what will happen in the future, the second prince who supports today, who said that he will not turn to support the eldest prince tomorrow? It's just that the behavior of the eldest prince is too annoying, and he has cut off the path of others.
The excitement of Guozijian and Tai Academy has been sent to Daming Palace as soon as possible, and Dai Quan already knows about it.
"What did the second child do when he went to Rongguo Mansion?"
"I don't know, I only stayed for a while and came out, I guess I was really worried that Jiafu would suffer a loss in the hands of His Royal Highness, so I rushed to the rescue."
Emperor Jingtai sneered when he heard this: "Go and find out, who is the boss who went to Jiafu to ask for a kiss." ”
Dai Quan was a little surprised, and said, "Does Your Majesty think that His Royal Highness went to Rongguo Mansion to fall into someone else's trap?" ”
"Otherwise, how do you think those people in Guozijian know all about Rongguofu so quickly?"
Emperor Jingtai said expressionlessly. This kind of method, he didn't use it back then, how could he not know, even if Jia Baoyu was not injured today, this situation would happen, and now it is just a more sufficient reason.
Dai Quan didn't dare to speak again. If this is the case, the gap between the eldest prince and the second prince is too big, if it weren't for His Majesty's secret help over the years, I am afraid that the eldest prince would have been abolished by the second prince.
Uh, it seems to have been scrapped......
