In the thirteenth year of Yongle, Jia Yuanchun of Fengzao Palace ordered Xia Shouzhong, the eunuch of the six palaces, to pass on the letter, and on February 22, Baoyu and the sisters moved into the Grand View Garden.

Jia Baoyu lives in Yihong Courtyard, Lin Daiyu lives in Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Xue Baochai lives in Wuyuan, Jia Yingchun lives in Jinlou, Jia Tanchun lives in Qiushuangzhai, Jia Xichun lives in Lifengxuan, Li Kun lives in Daoxiang Village, Miaoyu lives in Lucuian, and Miaoyu is invited by Mrs. Wang's next post.

……

Rongguofu West Road, Jia Zhengwai Study, Mengpo Zhai.

Jia Zheng wore civilian clothes at home, and hand-copied Di reported: "In the year of Bingzi, the chief examiner was Wang Yingyuan, the head of the household department and the second assistant of the cabinet. ”

Jia Cong sat down, secretly surprised, with the cabinet minister as the chief examiner of the township test, obviously Yongle was wary of the misapproval of the last township test, excluding the identity of the minister, and the household servant was the chief examiner of the township test, which was not a big fuss at all, and other provinces were sent to petty officials to boil qualifications and save qualifications, but Zhili Province was an exception, and at the feet of the Son of Heaven, it was naturally different.

The last incident he had, even if he didn't approve it by mistake, the township test article was not taken between the two, and he couldn't get it, but Qian Xihong, the imperial history of Xicheng, was mistakenly approved, and he had to talk about it separately, Qian Xihong was not knowledgeable enough and would be punished. Yongle didn't want to retake the exam for him alone, after all, it was those ministers who liked to use this introduction to ignite the fire and cause bigger factional disputes, wouldn't it be annoying.

Jia Cong was a little cheerful: "Wang Ge Lao also commented on his nephew's "Strange Tales of Mountains and Seas", and I hope that there will be a point. ”

"Those miscellaneous books are just side stories, irrelevant to the backbone, and they don't go into the stream, and the four books and five classics are the right ones." Jia Zheng said disdainfully: "The eight shares are connected, it is the clear stream, and at that time, you have to compose poems, lyrics, and operas, so that it is harmless, you go down and prepare well." ”

Jia Cong secretly slandered this Taoist for not being enlightened, and if he reads too many sage books, people are prone to hypocrisy and hypocrisy.

He walked out of the weeping flower gate across the courtyard on West Road, and when Jia Lian came over, Jia Cong asked in a low voice, and said kindly: "Second brother, my father has been looking better recently, what kind of medicine did you offer?" ”

Jia Lian was slightly proud, and took out his brother's momentum again: "Don't ask more about this, you are still young, but it is just the medicine collected by those little guys...... You'll know later......"

"Hmm." Jia Cong obediently staggered, the west road across the courtyard is where Jia Zhengwai's study is located, to the north is the Rongqing Hall where Jia's mother lives, and the mandarin duck wearing a blue satin tooth pinch vest came over with a smile: "Master Cong, the old lady has a banquet in the garden, Master Cong is going to take the exam again this year, the second girl proposed, by the way, give our show talent to the public, the old lady will be approved, come with me." ”

Jia Baoyu and the girls were able to live in the Grand View Garden, it was ordered by the Yuan Concubine, and the concubine Niangniang's will, people didn't say that they would let Jia Cong, Jia Huan and other concubines go in to live.

Originally, the construction of the Grand View Garden appropriated a number of architectural patterns, including Ningguo Mansion Huifang Garden, East Courtyard, Lixiang Courtyard, and part of Jia Yu's garden, all of which were disassembled, re-merged, and then fenced off, the Lixiang Courtyard where the Xue family lived, has now become a place for twelve officials to practice opera, Jia Yu also wants Jia Cong to move in to live, the environment of the Grand View Garden is quiet, elegant, spectacular, and the best conditions for studying, but no matter how high the family is, it is not as big as the monarch and minister. Mrs. Wang can enter the palace regularly every month to see Concubine Yuan, let alone think about the big house.

Although the Grand View Garden was built for a year, Jia Cong saw it for the first time, from the north and south wide sandwich road in the north of Rongguo Mansion into the garden hanging flower gate, it is a stone path, the main gate is five, the barrel tile loach ridge, the threshold window, a color water mill, white jade stone steps, carved passion flowers, this scenery directly blocks the sight, people can not see how inside, just like the wall of the courtyard door, the plaque inscription "Cui Zhang" two words.

Most of the names of the buildings in the Grand View Garden are inscribed by Jia Baoyu, and the reason is that Jia Yuanchun and Jia Baoyu have a deep relationship between sisters and brothers. After the provincial concubine, some of the names were changed, and the Cave Jingxi Pavilion in the northeast of the Grand View Garden, the Tubi Villa, and the Daoxiang Village in the west were written by Lin Daiyu.

Passing through the green ridge along the stone, it is the Qinfang Pavilion, there is a pavilion on the bridge, and it is called the Pavilion Bridge. The bridge alone, there is no overlap in the Grand View Garden, the Zhulan folded belt bridge of the Wuyuan Garden, the bee waist bridge from the brocade building to the Qiushuangzhai, the gate bridge from the Cave Jingxi Pavilion to the Lucui Nunnery, etc., each has its own characteristics, the ingenuity is unique, just like nature.

The direction of the water flow under the bridge leads to the southeast Yihong Courtyard, Jia Cong only saw that the Qinfang Bridge is heavy eaves and arches, the white stone is the column, there are three ports, cross the bridge to the west, it is the apricot yin, the willow leaves are Zhu, the apricot blossoms are coming, the willow leaves are green, beautiful, Jia Cong secretly said: "No wonder Jia Yuanchun said that it is extravagant, Lin Ruhai's Yangzhou garden, there is no such a big ......"

Willow leaf Zhu, apricot yin close to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Yihong Courtyard across a Qinfang Bridge, there is a Cuidi Pavilion in the southwest, is the place where Baochai flutters butterflies, the flowers and plants outside the pavilion are fragrant, built near the water, there are bamboo rafts and boats in the water, can pass through the lotus root Champs, Jia Cong said: "Do you want to take a boat over?" ”

"No, there is a road over there, the old lady is in the third girl's Qiushuangzhai, which is open and comfortable, and Miss Lin's Xiaoxiang Pavilion looks gloomy." The mandarin duck lifted her skirt and walked up the uphill stone road: "Master Cong went to Jiangnan, my parents asked you to transport things back, but you didn't enter Stone Town?" ”

"I just played around in the Acura Building outside the city, and I didn't enter Stone Town." Jia Cong shook his head, the complexion on the face of the mandarin duck goose egg was faint, there was a hint of gloom, the mandarin duck's father had phlegm, and his mother was deaf, and he had come to the north to serve since he was a child, and the impression of his parents in the south was really very vague.

Entered the autumn Shuangzhai, the owners of the Grand View Garden, except for the Miaoyu of the Lucui Nunnery, were all seated in the hall, the atmosphere was full of laughter, Jia Cong knelt down to ask for an ceremony, Jia's mother retracted her smile, and looked at this grandson, although it is her bloodline, people have grown a lot, and their reputation is outside, but after all, they can't be compared with Baoyu, Baoyu and her husband Jia Yuan are similar in appearance, which no one can compare, not to mention that Baoyu is still the brother of the concubine and the concubine, and the concubine is always a little cheap...... It's hard to get into the elegant hall......

"Just a toast one by one." Jia's mother is happy and authentic.

Jia Cong scolded secretly in his heart, until Li Kun and Wang Xifeng, Wang Xifeng has given birth to a daughter, but her figure is still slim, Lin Daiyu didn't want to drink more, but she still drank with a smile after thinking about it, Jia Tanchun said: "Old lady, I heard that if you win the lift, the official yamen will pay to set up a memorial arch, that is a matter of glory and ancestor, my sister, I hope that Brother Cong will become famous in one fell swoop." ”

Jia Baoyu said eloquently: "Lifting the archway, how can there be a big view garden? The main building of this garden, the plaque built last year is 'Tianxian Treasure Land', the stone archway in front of the door of the Grand View Building, so big and so wide, there are still two side halls inside, it is really a fairyland on earth. ”

Jia Mu looked at Baoyu and smiled kindly: "Although our family is a duke, in the end, the emperor's grace is mighty, and there is a noble concubine, which is naturally more glorious than several jinshi." ”

Wang Xifeng was secretly happy, and Jia Cong simply became a passerby.
