Chapter 421: Baoqin joins the gang
On the day of Ping'er's wedding, Wang Xifeng did not show up, because the female rolls of Jiafu went out to the banquet.
The host of the banquet was Gao Xueyi, who had just been transferred to Beijing.
He was relieved of his position as governor and became the left attendant of the ministry.
Although the rank has been lowered by one level, the rank of foreign officials who are transferred to Beijing will have been reduced, and it is still the most important department such as the Ministry of Officials, which shows that the emperor attaches great importance to it - of course, these are just the illusion of Emperor Longzheng's anesthesia of Gao Xueyi and the people behind him.
Emperor Longzheng transferred Gao Xueyi to Beijing in order to make it more convenient to monitor Gao Xueyi, and also to give Gao Xueyi and the people behind him the opportunity to make trouble.
Emperor Longzheng took the opportunity to get rid of Gao Xueyi and the master behind him in one fell swoop.
Gao Xueyi's wife is the girl of the Ma family who governs the country among the eight princes, so the Gao family will definitely invite the four kings and eight princes to a banquet.
Jia Yu had no interest in going out to socialize, and finally Jia Zheng took Jia Baoyu to Gao's house for a banquet on behalf of the Jia family.
And Mother Jia also took a girl to the Gao family, and Xue Baoqin, as Mrs. Wang's goddaughter, naturally followed.
On the contrary, Jia Huan, a concubine, is not qualified to participate in the banquet.
Jia Huan is not uncommon to attend banquets, he is very busy now, busy mixing nails to the Gao family.
There were spies among the Gao family's subordinates, but that was when they were on the ground.
The Gao family went to Beijing and only brought some of their subordinates, and they were all the henchmen of the masters.
The rest of the people were left in the local area by Mrs. Gao to help them take care of the industry, but unfortunately, most of the spies were left behind, and only one nail followed the Gao family to the capital.
Therefore, Jia Huan needs to arrange more nails to enter the Gao family.
Before, while Mrs. Gao was buying people, Jia Huan arranged a few nails to go in.
After that, you have to continue to put nails in it.
Not long after the Gao family banquet, the Rongguo Mansion also began to organize banquets.
It turned out that Jia's mother's birthday was approaching.
Jia's mother was born on the third day of the eighth month, and Rongguofu began to prepare for her birthday a month early.
On the first day of the first month of August, Rongguo Mansion opened a banquet to invite a group of guests.
The small drama in the Grand View Garden left and walked away, and it was naturally impossible to sing on stage again, so Jia Yu asked people to invite two troupes, one to perform for the male guests, and the other to perform for a group of women.
These two troupes are very famous in the capital, and the pillars inside are famous actors in the capital and are quite sought after.
Jia Huan sat in the corner, listening to the others pointing at the people on the stage, and admiring the people above for singing well.
Somehow, someone mentioned Qiguan Jiang Yuhan.
Everyone thinks that Jiang Yuhan's performance is better, but it's a pity that Jiang Yuhan doesn't know where he went, and he will never see his performance again.
Someone lowered his voice and said his guess: Maybe Qiguan has been wiped by Prince Zhongshun.
Many people agree with this statement and feel sorry for Jiang Yuhan.
How did they know that Jiang Yuhan appeared around them today, but with a different look.
Xue Zhen shuttled among the guests, pretending to run errands for the Jia family to help, but in fact he was helping Jiang Yuhan as a cover, he was Jiang Yuhan's partner.
After Jiang Yuhan learned makeup with Jia Huan, he became obsessed with role-playing after changing his face, and then infiltrated the house of the powerful to find out the news, and he was very happy.
And the effect is very good, Jiang Yuhan can always get quite important news.
This birthday banquet was held for five days in a row, and all the people in Rongguo Mansion were exhausted.
Including Jia's mother, the birthday star.
After the birthday banquet, Jia's mother rested fiercely for three days before relieving.
A group of girls only rested for a day before recovering, and it was rare that Xue Baochai, Lin Daiyu and Shi Xiangyun were in Rongguo Mansion, and the girls discussed the matter of opening a poetry club.
Jia Baoyu naturally came over to join in the fun, a group of people played lively for a day, and Lin Daiyu returned to Lin's house the next day.
Lin Ruhai cared about her daughter and asked how she was doing in Rongguo Mansion.
Lin Daiyu nodded and said that it was okay: "My grandmother loves her daughter very much, and the two uncles are also passable in face, and they can talk to the sisters." It's just Baoyu ......"
Lin Daiyu sighed.
Lin Ruhai stopped her and continued to say Jia Baoyu: "Although he is your cousin, he is a foreign man, don't mention Baoyu in the future." ”
Lin Daiyu nodded in response, and then talked about Xichun: "The fourth sister has a cold temperament, I'm afraid I have the idea of becoming a monk." ”
Lin Ruhai was not familiar with Xichun, but knowing that Xichun was younger than his daughter, he wanted to become a monk, and couldn't help but be surprised: "How could she have the idea of becoming a monk?" ”
Lin Daiyu sighed: "The parents of the fourth sister are gone, and the elder brother is like that, she is fostered by her grandmother but is not taken seriously, and her temperament is becoming more and more cold." ”
Lin Ruhai remembered the current situation of Ning Guofu and sighed: "Pity her." ”
Lin Ruhai said: "You take more of their sisters to play at home, and take the opportunity to enlighten her." ”
Lin Daiyu nodded: "My daughter knows, thank you daddy." ”
Jia Huan raised his eyebrows in surprise when he saw the information presented by Xue Zhen.
This information is more information than the nail he arranged into the Gao Mansion to get more information.
"This is all Jiang Yuhan inquired about?"
Xue Zhen replied: "Part of it was inquired by Brother Jiang, and part of it was inquired by Sister She. ”
Jia Huan was even more surprised: "Your sister? Xue Baoqin? ”
Xue Zhen nodded, her expression was both relieved and pity: "Baoqin knows that I am doing things for the emperor and wants to help me." So, every time I went out to a banquet with the old lady and the second wife, I would deliberately listen to the news from those female rolls. Those female scrolls were not defensive against Baoqin, and it really allowed her to find out some important information. ”
Xue Baoqin was very grateful to his brother for his credit in exchange for a very good family business, and after knowing that his brother was a spy for the emperor, he helped Xue Zhen a little.
Every time she went to a banquet, she would carefully inquire about the news from the mouths of those female rolls.
Then peel back the cocoon from the news and draw intelligence.
After many times, she got more information, so she handed it over to Xue Zhen.
Xue Zhen knew what her sister had done, and she was extremely moved.
He asked Xue Baoqin not to do it again, but Xue Baoqin disagreed, she was dedicated to helping her brother and wanted to repay her brother for his kindness to her.
Xue Baoqin was very stubborn, Xue Zhen couldn't convince her sister, so she could only let her continue, but told Xue Baoqin to be careful when she inquired about the news and not to expose herself.
Jia Huan comforted Xue Zhen: "Don't worry, your sister is smarter than you, she is measured, and she will not be exposed." In this way, I gave her a token of the Dark Guard Battalion, so that she could have the identity of the Secret Guard, so that she would have an extra layer of security. ”
Xue Zhen immediately saluted Jia Huan and thanked Jia Huan.
Jia Huan asked people to take out a token and give it to Xue Zhen, asking him to bring it to Xue Baoqin.
In the future, Xue Baoqin will also be the person from their secret camp.
