The next morning, two o'clock.

There is still a long time before dawn.

Buzheng Fang, Lin Mansion.

Jia Qiang, who hadn't slept all night, said goodbye to Ping'er, Xiangling, Qingwen, and Keqing...... Li Jing had already brought people on board in advance to arrange.

I didn't do anything last night, but the family gathered around the round table, ate some food and drink, and talked a lot of things, but it was also warm......

When he arrived at Yin, Jia Qiang set off and came to Buzhengfang.

If it is not delivered over there, it will come here.

They all go to the mountains and rivers to open their eyes, but here they go to sweep the tombs.

……

Zhonglin Hall.

As soon as Jia Qiangfu entered the door, he saw Daiyu sitting sideways under the moonlight, looking sideways.

She was wearing a silk pipa top, a flower and smoke shirt, a butterfly play narcissus skirt underneath, and a big red feather veil with a crane folded on the side.

Under the candlelight, tears are dotted, just like the person in the painting......

"Yo! Is the junior sister reluctant to leave Beijing, or does she dare to go south by herself? ”

Jia Qiang looked at Daiyu and asked with a smile.

Daiyu snorted, turned around, turned her face away, and ignored the bad guy......

Jia Qiang smiled and greeted Lin Ruhai, what the two said was not Daiyu's going out......

"Sir, after sending my junior sister to the dock in a while, I'll do it when I come back."

Lin Ruhai frowned slightly when he heard this, looked at Jia Qiang's face a little solemn, and said, "Do it now?" Do you think the time is right? ”

This is what Lin Ruhai respects most about Jia Qiang.

Although he is knowledgeable, experienced, and intelligent, he is also respectful.

But Lin Ruhai will never be like the elders of this era, shouting orders to the younger generations, only allowing them to do so, and not asking more.

He always talked with Jia Qiang in a consultative manner, and imparted his experience and wisdom to Jia Qiang......

Jia Qiang said softly: "Sir, in my opinion, the root of the new deal is in the rule of officials? But it is the household department that is directly confronted. The hardest, except for the officials? Is it the household department? Or even the difficulty of the household? It may still be above the ministry. There are too many difficulties and obstacles to overcome, and too many people have to be offended. Of course, many things can be done, but to do it? It is far less convenient than the embroidered guard. What do you do? The difficulty should be increased more than tenfold, and the embroidered clothes guard will do it, although it is rough and domineering? But relatively speaking? It's much easier, too.

Again? I'm also worried about those people behind my back? I can't say that I will fight the idea of the two ships of my junior sister? I want to get revenge on one or two. So? In addition to arranging the manpower on the boat and along the way, I am also preparing to make a surprise in the capital to let them know what is important. ”

When Lin Ruhai heard this, a touch of complexity flashed in his eyes? He said softly: "Why do you need to be this pawn for the teacher?" ”

Jia Qiang said with a smile: "I don't do this pawn for Mr.? Can you still let Mr. go into battle in person? And if Mr. really went into battle in person? And I, who is a disciple? It doesn't make much difference, it's better for me to be ruthless first, it's more convenient. ”

Daiyu on the side is no longer angry? Xing Yan looked at Jia Qiang in a daze, and her heart was indescribably moved......

Lin Ruhai pondered for a while, no longer entangled in these, he said slowly: "Only for the officials of the Internal Affairs Office, or even the ...... behind the back"

Jia Qiang said: "I was going to clean up the palace behind me and be ruthless, but Kehe and the king of the county stopped me, saying that this was a death." Later, the emperor also said that the means should not be too drastic. Therefore, the disciple plans to take no one first, but only land and wealth......"

As he spoke, he said his intentions all over again.

Then I saw Lin Ruhai shaking his head again and again: "There is no reason for this, the involvement is too wide, and the backlash is too heavy, you can't afford it." What does the emperor say about this law? ”

Jia Qiang shook her head and said: "There is no will yet, let's do it to the Internal Affairs Office today, and the palace will ...... tomorrow at the earliest."

Lin Ruhai slowly bowed his head and said: "I will discuss this matter with the emperor, Qiang'er should not be impulsive, too impatient, and will make mistakes." For the clan, it is impossible to wipe it out in one fell swoop, that is the dragon son and the dragon grandson, all of them are the blood of the ancestors, how can it be cleaned up? How do people in the world view the heavenly family? Therefore, you can only kill chickens and monkeys, take down one or two ruthlessly, and deter others. I expect that the emperor will still have a will after today, so you don't have to rush it. ”

After Jia Qiang bowed down, Lin Ruhai's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly picked up the pen, wrote a line of words on the desk paper, and looked up at Jia Qiang.

After Jia Qiang stepped forward to take a look, her complexion changed suddenly, and she looked at Lin Ruhai dumbfounded.

Gain wrote on the paper: Don't judge corruption as a crime, use the emperor to make a big case, and ask the Internal Affairs Office.

Jia Qiang thinks that he is a human being, and he has no awe in his heart, so he has the tendency to break the sky repeatedly.

He thinks that the people of the world today are bound by stereotypes and customs, and they definitely do not have such courage.

Now it seems that he is still underestimating.

Shandong flicked his fingers to destroy the six great families, and even included the Yansheng Mansion as an example, today Jia Qiang once again saw what is the means of the unparalleled national warriors!

Yes, if you ask for the crime of corruption, the backlash of the clan will definitely be 10,000 points violent!

They may go to the Crying Taimiao, or they may kneel to the Queen Mother, in short, they will definitely make Jia Qiang pay a certain price.

Even if Jia Qiang was ready to let Emperor Long An pay this price, such as recruiting back Li Han, the king of Yiping County, from Jingling, and crowning the prince to appease the queen mother.

It seems that it can be settled, but doing so will inevitably make Emperor Long An extremely depressed and annoyed in his heart, and afterwards, being in the palace with Li Han will also make him more and more annoyed and disgusted.

If this continues, Emperor Long'an's perception of the initiator Jia Qiang is bound to decrease day by day......

That's a very heavy price!

However, Lin Ruhai used this trick to eliminate the aftermath of the clan's rebound invisibly.

There may be, but at least on the surface, no one will make any waves!

The only thing to consider is the attitude of the palace.

But Lin Ruhai and Jia Qiang can be sure that although the Emperor Taishang Daxing does have a strange situation, this strange thing does not come from Emperor Long An.

That's enough!

"Got it?"

Lin Ruhai asked softly, and as he spoke, he gently folded the paper and tore it apart.

Jia Qiang nodded heavily and said respectfully: "Mr. is a hundred times smarter than his disciple!" ”

Lin Ruhai smiled, waved his hand and said: "In fact, if you do this, the aftermath has not been reduced too much, but it is hidden underwater, and it will break out sooner or later." However, it's better than you are brute. ”

Jia Qiang laughed dryly, scratched her head, and said: "Sir, whenever I have a little arrogance, I can always get the teachings of Mr. ”

His method, compared with Lin Ruhai's finishing touch, is really more than one layer lower.

Lin Ruhai waved his hand and said: "It is you who have reached this point, and you can circle a stroke on it as a teacher, and Qiang'er doesn't have to be arrogant." Okay, that's it, you can just take care of the size yourself. For the teacher's side, it is also necessary to let people prepare one or two in advance. ”

He took out a very ordinary poplar simple box from the side, but it was with Daiyu, and said: "For the father's side, I don't have much to explain, just take this box and burn it in front of your mother's grave." You don't have to stay too long, and you don't have to be sad, for if your mother were here, she would be happy to see you today. ”

When Daiyu heard this, her eyes were red and tears fell, and she stepped forward to take the simple box.

"Go, tell your mother, in two or three years, Qiang'er and I will go back with you to see her. After the new deal is popular, my father will go back to live in the old house in Suzhou, and at that time, I can accompany each other every day! ”

Lin Ruhai said with a smile, and Daiyu was in tears.

Jia Qiang quietly glanced at Aunt Mei, and when she saw that she also wiped the corners of her eyes, she sighed lightly in her heart......

After telling the matter, Lin Ruhai didn't say anything more and waved his hand.

Aunt Mei picked up the big red feather veil that was folded aside, put it on Daiyu and tied it, and said to Jia Qiang: "But it is indeed well arranged, and there must be no ...... of the difference."

Jia Qiang laughed and said: "Unless someone pulls the flag and rebels, raise a large army to attack." Otherwise, it is foolproof. ”

Aunt Mei glanced at Jia Qiang angrily, and said angrily: "Nonsense again." ”

After that, he pulled Daiyu and told him a lot of words, nothing more than to take good care of himself, and not to be wronged.

After a cup of tea, Lin Ruhai raised his eyebrows slightly and reminded: "It's just a trip to the southern province, and I will come back before the New Year, so I don't need to say so much." Yu'er entered Kyoto alone at the age of five or six, and she was not unable to stand it. ”

Aunt Mei didn't say anything more, Jia Qiang and Daiyu said goodbye to Lin Ruhai together, and after saying goodbye to Aunt Mei, they left Zhonglin Hall.

There was already a carriage waiting, and after Zijuan and Snow Goose helped Daiyu to get into the car, they knocked on the cloud board inside, and Jia Qiang said: "Let's go!" ”

……

When I arrived at the pier outside the city, the carriage did not stop, and I went straight to a two-story boat that had been moored for a long time.

When Li Jing led Daiyu, Zijuan, and Snow Goose to the second floor, she saw Tanchun, Xiangyun, Xichun, Baoqin and others cheering and jumping, and Sister Feng, Ping'er, and Keqing also got up to greet them. Xiangling, Qingwen, Xiao Jixiang, Xiao Jiaoer, Twelve Opera Officials and Servants, Cuimo, Into the Painting, Painting Gold, Jin Chuan, Baozhu, Ruizhu and a large number of large and small maids are also very lively, gossiping and greeting Daiyu.

Daiyu, Zijuan, and Snow Goose were originally away from home, and they still had a sense of wandering and uneasiness in their hearts, and their mood was a little depressed and gloomy, but as soon as they went upstairs, they saw that the atmosphere was lively like this, and the three masters and servants were all infected and smiled.

Daiyu chirped: "Traveling far away from home, one by one is happy to be like this?" ”

Sister Feng looked behind her, and after seeing that there was no one for a long time, she said strangely: "Sister Lin, where are the people?" ”

Daiyu said angrily: "Who is it? If everyone is not here, who else? ”

Sister Feng laughed angrily: "What about Qiang'er? How did you come here on your own? ”

Daiyu didn't say that Jia Qiang only sent her to the dock, and when she saw her carriage on the boat, she left, but said: "He and my father discussed serious matters in the court, how can he send me?" ”

Tan Chun smiled angrily: "Sister Lin is less here!" How convincing is this? Xiangling's hooves have already been explained, and her father went out early in the morning, before dawn! And went on an errand with Mr. so early? ”

Daiyu snorted and said, "What do you know? Brother Qiang is now doing the errand of raiding the house and taking people, I'm afraid that he has already started to do it now, how can he have time to send us? As he spoke, he poked his head out of the window and tried to find Jia Qiang's little corner and Xiao Jixiang: "Close the window, no matter how naughty you two are, go downstairs and stay with the grandmothers. ”

Xiao Jiao'er and Xiao Jixiang, the two maids who still had their heads, came down with flattering smiles and closed the windows tightly.

Ping'er stepped forward to serve Daiyu to relieve Dayu, but Daiyu hurriedly avoided it and sneered: "I'm being frivolous?" ”

Ping'er smiled: "It should have been served." ”

Daiyu laughed and said: "Good sister, you go to the side and be stubborn about you, the more you talk about it, the more it doesn't look like it!" ”

As he spoke, he untied the tie of the big strap, and Zijuan took it and went with Snow Goose to find Daiyu's bedroom to settle down.

The other girls were no longer hanging out in the hall, and they went back to their bedrooms in twos and threes, and if there was something good, they were huddled together.

When the little girls were gone, a few Daiyu, Xiangyun, Tanchun, Xichun, and Baoqin sat at a table, and Sister Feng, Ping'er, and Keqing sat down along the window.

Originally, Xiangling and Qingwen were also considered to be able to sit in the hall, but the two of them were "willing to fall", and they were willing to be stubborn with the little girls, so they went with them......

Daiyu's eyes swept around, and she saw that the sisters were all smiling, and so were Sister Feng'er, Ping'er, and Keqing.

Keqing ......

In terms of color, this one is the best in the East and West.

Looking at the woman sitting there quietly, with a light smile on the corner of her mouth, Daiyu didn't know what it was like in her heart.

And Xu was aware of Daiyu's gaze, but Ke Qing suddenly trembled his eyes, then raised and looked over.

After meeting Daiyu's gaze, Keqing's face changed slightly, and she stood up with a forced smile and greeted: "Aunt Lin......"

Daiyu smiled and nodded, but didn't say anything.

She didn't deliberately manipulate her identity, how could she be like that?

I just don't know what to say......

Sister Feng looked at each other with Ping'er on the side, a trace of worry flashed in both of their eyes, Sister Feng smiled and said, "Sister Lin, the Qin family has been bored in Dongfu for a long time, and this time I also came out to go shopping, it's all thanks to you!" You are the most generous, and I think Qiang Er also knows that you will not blame, so I brought more people to ......"

"Phew!"

Daiyu was much more comfortable with Sister Shangfeng, and laughed: "I don't blame others, I only blame you." Who told you to come up? ”

Sister Feng laughed loudly: "Ouch! Are you willing to get on your ship? If you don't believe it, ask their sisters, yesterday at the Rongqing Hall, I pleaded for Qiang'er to change her sister-in-law to visit this incident, and I stayed at home to serve the old lady and take care of the house. If you don't allow it, you have to let me come, what can I do? ”

Ping'er on the side saw that Daiyu's face had changed, and hurriedly explained: "Girl, don't listen to grandma's frivolity, grandma taught her an errand......"

Dai Yuqi said: "What can she do?" ”

Sister Feng also saw Daiyu's dislike, and said with a smile: "What else can I do?" What good errand can you do but go for the one who has offended in your house? Where am I going back to my mother's house, I obviously want to go back to be a wicked person! Sister Lin didn't come yesterday, otherwise she would have asked you to judge!

I haven't been back to my parents' house for many years, I wanted to bring some valuable ones back, so that Qiang'er could see it, and Lin Ruhai asked Lin Ruhai to take it back, and only let me bring some local products from the capital back to my parents' home. That's not all, but also bring four embroidered guards. Let me go home and tell the people of the Jia family and the Wang family in Jinling, let them not die, whoever has done any evil, should be remedied, and if it cannot be remedied, he will turn himself in. There is also the imperial court that is about to measure the acres of land and check the land, so that the old relatives of Jinling are clamped one by one, and they are not allowed to disobey. Otherwise, don't blame him for coming back and dying......

Sister Lin, tell me, am I going back to my parents' house to save my relatives, or am I going back to my parents' house to break off the relationship, and I will break off my righteousness and make enemies with others? ”

Daiyu was amused in her heart, and said with a straight face: "Since he asked you to do this, it is for the good of the Wang family and the Jia family's relatives in Jinling." They may not be able to understand it for a while, but after a while, they will understand that you are truly good for them. ”

Tanchun and Xiangyun on the side heard this, and almost fell back without a smile.

Xiangyun's tears were about to burst out of laughter, and Sister Tongfeng smiled: "Second sister-in-law, you better rest, and don't look at which one you are suing!" Can Sister Lin face you? ”

Sister Feng was also angry and funny, but she was really complaining, so she could only smile bitterly again and again: "Let's go, I'm really bullied over there, and I'm tortured here, I'm really miserable!" ”

Daiyu ignored her, knowing Sister Feng'er's flattery and Keqing's fear.

But she didn't like it, and although she wasn't happy with some things, she wouldn't settle the account on these miserable women.

Pressing this section, Daiyu looked at Tanchun and said with a smile: "I remember that you like those two poems: When you are drunk, you don't know that the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of dreams and the galaxy." Is this time your dream come true? ”

Tanchun smiled and gently opened the window of the boat to a gap, and the cold river morning breeze blew in, which made people feel refreshed.

The sun was rising in the east, and the golden sunlight was shining in, Tanchun loved it very much, and she laughed softly: "Although the second sister-in-law is a little sycophant, her words are not bad. We can have such an opportunity, and we really thank Sister Lin for her blessing. ”

With her alone being a concubine, how can an orphan girl like Xiangyun and Xichun who have no father and no mother enjoy such blessings?

She knew it in her heart......

Daiyu smiled angrily: "I'll just say, can you become an immortal and a Buddha one by one?" Out of such a far door, walking for so many days, one by one I can't see the pain of parting, it turns out that it is all hidden here, and it is coming to me, isn't it? It's just that without me, you want to go to the south for a walk, Brother Qiang sent Sister Feng to the southern province to do errands, you want to go together, can you really go? Three girls, and Yun girl, is Brother Qiang treating you badly? Those who want to get along for a long time in the future are less frivolous! Even you. With a turn of his eyes, he brought Ping'er and Keqing in.

Ping'er was full of smiles, and even Keqing's face was full of gratitude.

Baoqin giggled on the side, and after Daiyu glanced at her, she heard Xiangyun laugh and said, "Brother Qiang is good at everything, but he doesn't have much poetry......

When Daiyu heard this, her eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "Speaking of this, I think of a poem he wrote on Taoyuan Zhuangzi in the previous spring......

Before the words could be spoken, the sisters exploded.

"Huh? Brother Qiang can also write poetry? Didn't he keep saying no? ”

"Hurry up, take it out and show us!"

Daiyu smiled: "How can the original poem be carried on me?" Take pen and paper, and I'll write it out. ”

Ping'er was busy looking for paper, ink, pen and inkstone, she had this awareness, that is, on the boat, Daiyu must be served well, and she must not be wronged a little.

Although she still calls Sister Feng her grandmother, she still understands in her heart that there is only one real grandmother at the moment, and that is Daiyu.

Although, Daiyu didn't allow them to treat her differently......

Waiting for the pen and ink to be ready, Daiyu was not in a hurry to do it first, glanced at Sister Feng'er who was standing aside and watching the excitement, and sneered: "Qingfeng is illiterate, why do you flip through the books?" ”

"Poof!"

Tanchun, Xiangyun, Baoqin, Keqing and other people who are familiar with books almost didn't laugh at this time, Sister Feng'er's face is wonderful.

Ping'er smiled beside her: "So that the girl knows that grandma has also begun to read and write now." ”

Sister Feng snorted, gritted her teeth and said, "Sister Lin's mouth is really loveable and hateful!" ”

Daiyu snorted, ignored it, and wrote:

"Alone against the railing, to the east of the small bridge in the spring of the river."

"I knew that I was in the dream of Red Mansions last night, and I was in the peach blossom trees."

……
