Chapter 25 Qingming Festival, the Imperial History

Qingming Festival is the ghost festival, the underworld, the Han people have the custom of sweeping tombs, the Ming Dynasty, the Shangsi Festival was merged into the Qingming Festival, the continuation of the dynasty, whenever this time, regardless of the north and south, the officials and the people, the ladies and sons, many will go out hairpin willows, BMW incense cars, spring outings, the vast area of China, there is still a difference between the north and the south, the entertainment activities of the Qingming in the south of the Yangtze River, to be more.

Jia Cong, Qin Keqing, Sun Fu, Ruizhu, Baozhu, etc., all follow the custom to insert willow branches, the suburbs of the city are empty, visitors are like weaving, there are fire-breathing, climbing poles, somersaults, juju, blind storytelling, opera and other performances, the tune is mostly the sound of change, nostalgia for the ancestors, tear-jerking, a few people down the stone steps of the mountain gate, it is really a good scenery of the prosperous world, Qin Zhong is even more applauded.

Qin Keqing was also dyed by customs, a soft smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he got into the carriage and sighed: "You see, this prosperous scenery is not false at all, it is obviously a ghost festival, and it is more lively than the Yu Lan Festival." ”

The seventh day of the seventh month of July is the Qiqiao Festival, and in some places it is still the Yulan Festival, Jia Cong heard the words and said: "You don't know, the Qingming Festival and the Qiqiao Festival are the same." ”

Qin Zhong shook his head: "It's different, the atmosphere is different." ”

Jia Cong said: "Do you have to worship and pray?" ”

Qin Zhong nodded, and Jia Cong said again: "What you said, are they all liars?" ”

"Hah! There is some truth to that. Qin Zhong pondered, Rui Zhuzhu also smiled, although it was a joke, Qin Keqing was also in a very cheerful mood: "Let's go back, it's getting late." ”

Jia Cong said that there was something to buy, let them go back first, Qin Keqing hesitated for a while, it was hard to say anything, thinking that this time goodbye, she would definitely go back to Dongfu early tomorrow morning, Jia Cong must have taken her affairs to heart, and it was impossible to find an excuse to run around, she "um" for a while, put down the sedan curtain and left, Qin Zhong was more tired of his sister, and only his master and servant were left behind.

When they left the house, they brought a stable donkey and mule, which they brought from Xifu, they were in the suburbs, but Jia Cong's mood was complicated, one was to not lose his career, and the other was to save Qin Keqing's life, the matter had come to this, he couldn't stay out of it, at this time, he would take this step, maybe Qin Keqing would have more to do with becoming a senior sister, and there were also reasons for Qin Keqing's kindness, her teardrop sadness was heartbreaking, and he couldn't do it.

Jia Zhen is the patriarch, and he also has the title of General Sanpin Weilie, he is a small sect concubine, how can he force him to let go of Qin Keqing? When Jia Cong does things, the first thing he thinks about is the result, and when the time comes, he must retreat with his whole body, and based on this premise, he will consider the way.

According to the time of the original work, next year Jia Jing's birthday, Qin Keqing began to "get sick", it is not difficult to speculate that Jia Zhen had already succeeded at that time, and the year after next was "Qin Keqing died and sealed the dragon and forbidden lieutenant", and his soul returned to hate.

"Sun Fu, when you go out of the Qin Mansion, you don't have to go to the West Mansion to report the news, first go to the Zhuangzi in the East Mansion to help me check these ...... and then to the Dongfu house...... There must be evidence and physical evidence, I will advance you 20 taels of running expenses, and then advance 30 taels to you after the matter is completed. Jia Cong's eyes flashed with a strange light.

Sun Fu is his grandmother, and he is also relatively clever, and there is no problem with loyalty.

"Take care." Sun Fu received the silver and whipped his horse.

This first step is the key, Jia Cong saw him leave, holding the reins in his hand, waving his whip, riding slowly across the stone slab in the willow embankment of the dock, after thinking, he looked up and saw the Chaoyangmen wharf in front of him, there were several people patrolling, flying fish suits, embroidered spring knives, and luan belts.

Jin Yiwei?!

Jia Cong's heart was cold, it should be the Jinyi Admiral Yamen set up outside the Chaoyang Gate of the guard 100 households, the general flag, the Ming Dynasty Jinyi Wei is divided into the south and north of the town of Fusi, the Ming Dynasty two capitals and 13 provinces, Beijing Nanjing, Shun Dynasty does not set up Nanjing, set up the Jinyi Admiral Yamen, in charge of the court eagle dog, these are to listen to Qin Ye said, although the Jinyi Guards have their own duties, and there are sewers, but the front seems to be the guard, Jia Cong folded his horse into the city cave.

He returned to Xicheng, found Zheng Yeyu and Xu Ziting, sold the second part of "The Legend of Xiaolin Guangji", talked with the two very happily, and went to see the small pomegranate that opened a silk shop. When I returned to Qin's Mansion, it was dark, and I hurriedly finished my homework: it was a topic arranged by Qin Ye, and I only needed to solve the problem.

……

The next day, Qin Keqing really returned to Dongfu, Qin Zhong was a little depressed, to say that Qin Keqing treats people and things, he is really not under Baochai, otherwise he would not become best friends with Wang Xifeng, who is Wang Xifeng? It is a phoenix who is easy not to look at people squarely, after the commander of the Taiwei and the county uncle, the uncle is the commander of the nine provinces. And what about Qin Keqing? The adopted daughter of Wupin Jingguan, the family is poor, and the family background of the second daughter is not comparable, however, Qin Keqing can be good friends with Wang Xifeng, I have to say that her character is loved by everyone, and even Qin Zhong is so tired of her.

Qin Zhong said shyly: "Brother Zili, my sister left you a set of Xue Tao notes, three Huzhou pens, two Huizhou inks, and four stacks of Xuanzhou paper...... These are the same for both of you, but she gave you an extra "Burning Quinoa Picture", my sister is really eccentric, and she clearly sees you as closer. ”

Although he is nine years old, most of the nine years have been at home, his heart is immature, he has a childish temper, and he has not suffered much.

After the death of Qin Keqing in the original book, Qin Zhong and Qin Ye died one after another, why did Qin Zhong die of illness at a young age? Jia Baoyu is half responsible, so to speak, Qin Zhong was taken by Jia Baoyu to study, Qin Zhong, Baoyu, Xianglian, Yuai, four men, full of affection.

Later, Qin Keqing went out of the funeral, Qin Zhong was in the Shuiyue Nunnery of Jiafu's family temple, and the little nun Zhizhi had an affair, the goddess of Xiangwang, Wushan Yunyu, the pen and ink are difficult to describe, and he died of illness, and Qin Ye was also angry with Qin Zhong.

These three surnamed Qin, one after another, broke their families and died, and no one was spared.

When Qin Zhong died, he was full of remorse, he never forgot the silver left by Qin Ye, he was afraid that his distant aunt would take it away, and he persuaded Baoyu to repent, that kind of remorse, I'm afraid it hurts my heart, right?

Jia Cong was in a trance a little and explained: "Whale Qing, it's not that my senior sister is biased, because I have seen this painting, and I have told my senior sister that she thinks I like it...... If you also like it, I will give it to you. ”

"I'm not going to take your liking." Qin Zhong pursed his lips and shook his head, and said shyly: "Actually, my sister treats you well, and I am also happy." ”

Jia Cong was cold and cold, he didn't exclude others from playing with the basics, but his sexual orientation was still normal, and he hurriedly turned around and tidied up the study, "Whale Qing, you and I are brothers and friends, and the only teacher relies on is you, the age difference between you and me is not big, I hope you can also go to the exam with me next year, and don't disappoint the teacher, what do you think?" ”

Qin Zhong was stunned, he was playful at this time, but after studying together for so long, Jia Cong was closer to him than Baoyu, and it was difficult to choose for a while, so he was stunned for a while and said, "Okay, my father still told me to listen to you." ”

Sitting down sullenly, Qin Zhong thought blankly: "Zili treats me more kindly than my brother-in-law, even my sister...... If my sister doesn't marry, it would be good if she could see us and teach us every day, if my sister married him, oops, no, no, then I'm short again, I have to call him brother-in-law, but ...... My sister came back this time, she didn't seem to be happy, did her mother's family suffer any grievances? She doesn't tell me ...... either."

The housekeeper Qin Tong came to inform "Mr. Xiangxin on Xinglong Street in Xicheng to come over and want to see the two young masters", Qin Zhong was stunned and refused to go out, he saw that his peers were shy and shy, and he didn't dare to see his father's generation, afraid of life, Jia Cong didn't force him, asked him to study by himself in the study, tidy up his appearance, and calmly go to the living room to meet him.

Liu Dongsheng wore civilian clothes and sat with Qin Ye as a guest, he saw Jia Cong wearing a cyan long jacket and a scarf belt around his waist, polite and polite, and made a long gesture, and his first impression was very good.

Qin Ye took the opportunity to say: "Xiangxin, my student Jia Zili is the author of "Xiaolin Guangji", Zili is precocious, and it is said that because of a dream, he opened the spiritual light. Usually, I also joked that this year's Yongding River flood, I am afraid that it is an omen Jia Zili, but no, Shecang was also mentioned by him. ”

Liu Dongsheng seemed to be looking at a treasure, his eyes wandered, and he said: ""The Legend of Xiaolin Guangji" is too miscellaneous and too scheming, and it is easy to corrupt the mind. ”

"The Legend of Xiaolin Guangji" is indeed not in the eyes of scholars, he wrote a follow-up in the Qin Mansion, and Qin Ye knew about it, at that time Qin Ye also said that he was not doing his job, but now he has changed his words. If they take out "The Outer History of Confucianism", they won't read it like this, Qing Dynasty novels, except for "Dream of Red Mansions", Wu Jingzi's "Confucianism Outer History" is the best, of course, the science field still has to look at the eight shares.

Jia Cong slandered a few words, he didn't want to refute, he just needed to use Liu Dongsheng, and then pointed to the bench and said: "Two times fifteen years, although there are chairs and benches, you don't sit on them." ”

"Thirty" in the previous sentence and "stand" in the following sentence.

"Okay." Liu Dongsheng smiled slightly, Jia Cong's problem solving was a bit of a joke, Liu Dongsheng said with a straight face: "But in the formal scientific examination, you must not joke." Liu is not talented, and he chose Gyeonggi Province to supervise the imperial history next month, and the edict has an order, and he also ordered me to supervise the students and people in the county government. ”

Gyeonggi Province supervises the imperial history, the quality is not high, and it is still the seventh grade, but the supervision of the imperial history is three points big for officials, which is equivalent to the current Commission for Discipline Inspection, which can impeach and picket Gyeonggi magistrates.

Qin Ye's eyes widened in disbelief, he didn't know which way Liu Dongsheng went, and his breath trembled: "Xiangxin, Zili will take the children's exam next year, and please teach Xiangxin more, I'll go and prepare water and wine." ”

"Alas, gentlemen don't take people's favor, since Jia Zili worships under your door, I can't accept it anymore, but if you have time, you can come to my humble house to ask for it, I also know the study of fashion." Liu Dongsheng pondered for a long time and took off the close-fitting jade pendant: "Carry this thing, unimpeded." ”

Jia Cong took it, feeling a little happy in his heart, it is difficult to say that Liu Dongsheng will be promoted to politics next year, and when he looked carefully, he found that Liu Dongsheng really had a scar on the right side of his face, which seemed to be scalded by hot water. But Jia Cong didn't overjoy, mainly to see if he could pass the children's test, and after passing the first two children's tests, if Liu Dongsheng promoted him to be a student in the college examination, then their teacher-student relationship would be established, and Liu Dongsheng's consideration was the same.

Qin Ye is the happiest, and he is more and more happy with Jia Cong, although he and Liu Dongsheng are the same year, but the friendship is average, where did he think that Liu Dongsheng would take office, the farther Jia Cong goes, the better he will be, he hurriedly sent Liu Yushi out, and came back to teach Jia Cong the entertainment of officialdom.

Jia Cong listened and thought: "Mr. Xiangxin allows me to visit at any time, well, the matter of saving Senior Sister Qin has eyebrows." ”
