Raise your eyes to the green building painting pavilion, embroidered household bead curtain. The carved cars compete in the heavenly street, and the BMW competes on the royal road. The gold is dazzling, and Luo Qi is fragrant.

In the city of Shenjing, where the fire is boiling oil and the brocade is prosperous, there are two Guogong mansions across the street.

To the west is Rongguo Mansion, and to the east is Ningguo Mansion.

Different from the great Yang Yang in the past, a mourning shed has been built at the gate of Rongguo Mansion today, and there are mourning flags hanging on both sides, and strings of broken paper are also hung on both sides of the gate of Ningguo Mansion.

Jia Zhu, the eldest son of the second room of Rongguo Mansion, died.

Rongning Erfu held a seven-day funeral, but only a few people such as Jia Zhu's wife Li Kun were really sad and wept, and the others hid their faces and pretended to cry.

Sun Jiachen, the distant son of the "jade" generation of Rongfu, was mixed in the crowd, and he didn't even bother to pretend to cry.

He came to the funeral, mainly to eat the feast, and by the way, to pack the leftovers.

"It's still the treatment of the descendants of the Jia family, so many delicacies from the mountains and seas, I usually can't eat them if I want to."

Jia Chen sighed silently, and wrapped the leftovers and took them away under the disdainful eyes of many Jia family masters and servants.

There is no way, he is just one of the eight rooms of the Jia family in Beijing, and his life is poor.

His cheap dad is called Jia Xuan, the sixth in the eight rooms, nicknamed Jia Lao Liu, because he is a concubine, he was kicked out of the Rong Mansion when he became an adult, and he set up a household by himself.

Jia Yan was amorous by nature, lingering in Fireworks Willow Lane all day long, but he got flower willow disease and died young.

Jia Chen's mother died in childbirth, and Jia Chen, as a traverser, had never seen this mother.

As soon as the cheap father died, Jia Chen became an orphan.

Fortunately, my house is still there, although it is only an old house with two entrances, but it can shelter from the wind and rain.

Every month, the Rong Mansion will allocate him one or two pieces of silver, which is only equivalent to the monthly money of the first-class maid of the Jia family.

If this money is used for food, drink and merry, it is definitely not enough, but if you live frugally, it is enough to eat and clothe yourself.

Although the family is poor, there are a lot of books, Jia Chen will look through them when he is fine, and I don't know if he has awakened the golden finger of the traverser, Jia Chen can never forget it.

He is only nine years old this year, and he has already memorized the Four Books and the Five Classics backwards.

According to the timeline of the original book, Lin Daiyu is six years old this year, and it is estimated that she will come to Jiafu soon.

When Jia Chen got home, he put the leftovers in the pot and heated them, and after eating and drinking, he took down a history book from the bookshelf and read it at night.

Now it's the Great Zhou Dynasty.

According to the records in the book, before the Great Zhou was the Ming Dynasty.

Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty devoted himself to cultivating the Tao and abandoned the government, and was destroyed by the Tatars.

Fortunately, the descendants of Zhang Shicheng, the king of Cheng at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, raised troops from Gaoyou, drove the Tartars to the north, stepped on the Central Plains, swept the world, and set the capital of Shenjing, which has been nearly a hundred years so far.

Now it has been passed to the third generation of emperors, changed to Chongrui.

Jia Chen calculated the year of the dynasty, and his heart sank suddenly:

"This year is the seventh year of Chongrui, but it is ...... with Emperor Chongzhen"

"Bang ......"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, interrupting Jia Chen's thoughts.

Jia Chen hid a short knife behind his waist and got up to open the door.

Looking through the crack in the door, it turned out to be Jia Yan's mother Lou Shi.

Since the death of Jia Chen's cheap father, Lou saw that Jia Chen was young and frustrated, and he was pitiful, so he often came to bring him some food.

Jia Chen hurriedly opened the courtyard door and bowed his hand:

"Jia Chen has seen Lou's sister-in-law."

Lou Shi pointed to the food box carried by a maid next to him, and said with a smile:

"Brother Chen, my family stewed two chickens tonight, and I will send you half to replenish your body."

"Thank you, sister-in-law Lou, please come in and have a cup of tea!" Jia Chen's heart was warm, turned sideways, and let her and the maid into the house.

Sister-in-law Lou entered the main hall, and after she sat down, her eyes were fixed on a painting hanging on the wall, and she was suddenly dumbfounded, and Huo Ran got up.

"Insist that the green mountains are not relaxed, and the roots are in the broken rocks.

Thousands of blows are still strong, and the wind blows from east to west, north and south. ”

Sister-in-law Lou recited it in a lost voice, and exclaimed:

"Good poetry! Good word! Brother Chen, did you write this poem? ”

Jia Chen said modestly:

"Sister-in-law Lou has an overreputation, this is just a clumsy work that I improvised in my spare time in order to pass the time, and it is difficult to get into the elegant hall."

Sister-in-law Lou smiled and exclaimed:

"Brother Chen doesn't have to be too humble, although I am a woman, but I have also read a few years, your poem can be called a brilliant talent, the words are endless and the meaning is infinite, if there is divine help, it is enough to pass through the ages."

Jia Chen smiled: "I really don't dare to be." ”

Sister-in-law Lou recited unfinished:

"Especially the last sentence, 'Thousands of blows are still strong, Ren Er's southeast and northwest wind', while showing a strong and arrogant backbone, it also exudes a chic and uninhibited vicissitudes of life, which really amazes me.

You can still write such majestic poems in such an embarrassing environment, which shows that you are broad-minded and quite personable, and you are by no means a thing in the pool! ”

Jia Chen smiled indifferently and said, "Sister-in-law Lou praised it falsely. ”

Lou Shi smiled and asked:

"Brother Chen, at a young age, read poetry and books, and his literary talents are flying, it can be seen that he has worked hard, I think he is preparing for the county exam, right?"

In the Great Zhou, the imperial examination included "six examinations", namely the county examination, the government examination, the hospital examination, the township examination, the meeting examination and the palace examination.

Jia Chen said: "I am indeed preparing for the exam, my family is poor, and I can only rely on the imperial examination to change my fate." ”

Lou's face was solemn, and he said with emotion:

"He is so sensible at a young age, he will have a bright future. Your fungus nephew is the same age as you, and he is also preparing for the county exam, so please help him more. ”

Jia Chen Zhengsedao:

"Sister-in-law Lou is kind to me, I am naturally duty-bound, and I must learn from each other and make progress together with my nephew."

"Brother Chen is too modest, but the fungus doesn't have the level of poetry and calligraphy like you." Lou Shi said a few more words of greeting, and then said goodbye and left.

After sending the Lou family away, Jia Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly, among the descendants of the Jia family, Lou's son Jia Yan is willing to study hard, in addition to him, Jia Zhu's son Jia Lan is a reading seed.

Most of the other descendants of the Jia family are not good, and they only know how to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble all day long.

There are many people who are greedy for pleasure, but there are few people who plan and plan.

Ning Rong's two mansions were already unable to make ends meet, and Yin ate food.

Don't look at the infinite scenery now, in fact, it is already a building, and it will eventually end up with a tragic end of "the white land is really clean".

Now, Jia Chen can still rely on the Jia family to barely survive, and when the Jia family is raided, no one will give him monthly money on a monthly basis.

In order to change his fate, Jia Chen could only study hard, strive for the title of the gold list, be the ruler, preside over the overall situation of the Jia family, set things right, and avoid being raided.

But the Jia family, as the founding nobles of the country, is estimated to be unable to escape the fate of the birds hiding the bow and the rabbit dying and the dog cooking.

Now the double sun hangs in the sky, the two saints are in the court, although the emperor passed the throne to the emperor, but he still loves the position of power, and often intervenes in the government.

Emperor Taishang relied on the founding nobles represented by the four kings, eight dukes and twelve marquis, and the Jia family belonged to the founding lineage, and it was a double prince, and the status was respected.

In order to fight against the Emperor Taishang and his group of old ministers, the emperor promoted a group of confidants and important ministers, known as Chongrui Xungui.

The two noble groups are like fire and water, and there is a great tendency of saber rattling.

When the emperor died, the emperor monopolized power, and the fate of the founding nobles can be imagined.

Jia Chen silently planned and calculated, if he wanted to change the fate of himself and the Jia family, in addition to the title of the gold list, he also needed to be in charge of the army.

The eldest husband was born between heaven and earth, how can he be depressed and live under the people for a long time?

As a traverser, Jia Chen does not have the foolish and loyal idea that the king lets the minister die, and the minister has to die, if the emperor wants to destroy the Jia family, he has to ask me first if the knife in my hand agrees?
