If Mingyan's words were normal, Baoyu would have listened to them, but today, they were particularly harsh.
Brother Feng is indeed a noble member of the Jia family, but the ones who really appreciate him are Huan Laosan and Lan Geer. Well, of course there is also Brother Lian who is suspicious of Sister-in-law Lian and the others.
In short, Jia Baoyu does not owe Brother Feng much. Jia Baoyu also admitted some of the original guidance and help, but he still feels that he is far less owed to Brother Feng than others.
He, Jia Baoyu, is not an ungrateful person. He must recognize the kindness that Brother Feng has done to himself, the Jia family, and other people in Jiajia. But this time it is related to his future and his whole life, but Brother Feng has given it to him.
Such an unconvincing suggestion from the eldest sister made Baoyu a little annoyed and angry.
Unless Brother Feng gives himself an accurate and reliable explanation, he really cannot accept such a result.
"Okay, am I the one who cares about the minutiae of Brother Feng?" Jia Baoyu said impatiently: "Don't say that the second sister and Sister Lin have been engaged for a long time. Even if there is no engagement, Brother Feng and the sisters have grown up together.
, What’s the point of just meeting? As for girls like Siqi, let alone climbing high branches to find a better way out, it’s normal.”
Mingyan was stunned. He didn't expect that the second master would become so free and easy all of a sudden?
The second master doesn’t seem to be like this.
In the past, wasn't the Second Master deeply dissatisfied with how Uncle Feng and Miss Lin were engaged but still wanted to marry Miss Bao? Behind his back, he often said that Uncle Feng was not sincere towards Miss Lin and was a playboy?
Even if the second girl wants to be a concubine for Uncle Feng, everyone in the house thinks it is a good thing, but the second master doesn't think so. He feels that the second girl is ruining the face of the Rongguo House by being a concubine, but who should be given the job?
Concubine, I want to be Uncle Feng’s concubine. I don’t know how many ladies in the capital city are looking forward to it.
And with the second girl’s temperament, if she really wants to be promised to the Sun family, she will be tortured to death in a few years?
Although the second girl's reputation as a concubine to Uncle Feng is not so good, it will be of great benefit to the Jia family. Otherwise, Second Master, your wedding will cost so much and you will go to the Feng family to borrow money. Would it be so easy to borrow money? You must know the government.
But I still owe Miss Lin a huge sum of money. Miss Lin's money belongs to Uncle Feng.
"Sir, if that's the case, then why bother checking Uncle Feng's whereabouts in the house? Uncle Feng is a capable man. I'm afraid that he will notice that I know his whereabouts. If I become suspicious in the future, it will affect the second master and Feng.
Because of the uncle's relationship, everyone knows that the younger one is yours." Mingyan said cautiously.
Arranging Mingyan to follow Feng Ziying was also Baoyu's impulse. Seeing his eldest sister so uneasy, although he didn't dare to think about it, he was still a little worried and afraid. What if?
Brother Feng is a man of great arrogance, both civil and military, and is now known as the leader among the young scholars of the Yonglong Dynasty. In addition, Brother Feng is bold and has a reputation for being romantic, so it is inevitable that he is not so good in this aspect.
scruples.
And Baoyu also accidentally heard from the conversation between his mother and his ancestors that it seemed that the eldest sister was very unhappy in the palace. The emperor was old and in poor health, and was basically out of the harem. The implication was that the eldest sister might have almost nothing to do with the emperor.
The couple is real.
He is no longer an ignorant young man, he also knows the taste of love between men and women. Once he has this kind of experience, he will know the taste and find it difficult to extricate himself.
Xiren, Bihen and Meiren in the room had all been married to him for a long time. In addition, they had a sticky relationship with Qin Zhong, Jiang Qiguan and others, and he was trapped in it and couldn't extricate himself.
, if the eldest sister is confused for a moment and makes a big mistake, it will be a disaster for the Jia family.
That's why he asked Mingyan to follow him and take a look. As for whether Feng Ziying went to Xiaoxiang Pavilion or Zhujin Pavilion, it didn't matter. As long as he didn't go to the provincial villa or Hanfang Pavilion, that would be fine.
As for the incident between Siqi and Feng Ziying in Didui Pavilion, in Jia Baoyu's eyes, it is not worth mentioning. They are just a girl. Feng Ziying slept with her. It was her fate, not to mention that Siqi was still Zhujin.
The people in the pavilion are originally the food in Feng Ziying's future bowl, not to mention.
"Okay, you just keep this matter to yourself, and no one is allowed to say it." Baoyu glared at Mingyan fiercely, "You are such a talker. If I hear someone say this matter in the future, be careful with you.
Skin."
"Second Master, how dare you say such a thing? Isn't this seeking death?" Mingyan swore quickly.
"Mingyan, you have to understand that Brother Feng is indeed very important to our Jia family and has helped us a lot, but after all, he is a Feng family, and we are still two families with our Jia family. It's hard to say what will happen in the future.
"Baoyu said leisurely: "I didn't care about this before. Brother Feng helped us, so I can save my attention. But now the situation in the house is like this. Brother Feng also has his own big family, and I will get married soon.
If I still ignore this matter in the Rongguo Mansion, I'm afraid the people in the manor will stab me in the spine."
"What I said is true. Now that I and Second Master Lian are away, Third Master Huan has gone out to study. The eldest master is a careless person. Grandma Zhu and Third Miss are taking care of everything inside. I really should take care of him.
Heartbroken."
Mingyan also likes it in her heart. Although the second master can be at ease by not taking care of things, it is difficult to make some money. Although Rongguo Mansion is in a recession now, there are still three thousand nails in the broken ship. If the second master is in charge, he will
Naturally, there will be many opportunities in the future, and I can put a lot of money in my pocket.
Naturally, Baoyu didn't know what Mingyan was thinking about Xiao Jiujiu, but he was not very interested in this matter in the house. What he cared about was his own opportunity this time around Qiu Xiang in Tienwang Mountain. The Niu family sent a letter to tell him about his salary.
Wang is now very popular with the emperor, and the opportunity to choose a heir has greatly increased. You must seize it by yourself. Even the younger Prince Gong has begun to rise to prominence. On the contrary, it is Prince Shou and Prince Fu. Prince Li seems to be gradually falling out of favor with the emperor, which makes Baoyu feel sad.
Also a little chilly.
He had participated in many poetry and cultural gatherings in the capital before, but almost all of them were held by Prince Shou, Prince Fu, Prince Li, and Prince Yi Zhong, Crown Prince Chengjun, especially Prince Fu, Prince Li, and Prince Cheng.
The events were held particularly frequently. Not to mention Prince Cheng, he was also familiar with Prince Fu and Prince Li, but he never thought that all of a sudden, several of the princes he was most familiar with would lose power.
On the contrary, Prince Lu, who had gone to Qingtan Academy to study, suddenly became the new favorite and the most popular candidate for the crown prince. There was even an underage Prince Gong who was more favored than Prince Shou, Prince Fu and Prince Li.
?
Of course, the news from the Niu family also said that the matter of selecting and establishing a reserve is very variable. This is only a preliminary judgment now. What the real situation will be depends on the follow-up situation, so this time the iron network will be close to the autumn.
Observe carefully from a distance to see the emperor's attitude towards the princes, see which royal family members, ministers and generals the emperor has met. From these clues, you can roughly judge the change in the direction of the wind.
But no matter who it is, the Niu family also said that this is an excellent opportunity to have close contact with the princes during the Autumn Festival of Tiewang Mountain. Compared with those who have no chance to participate in the Autumn Festival of Tiewang Mountain,
For those who are interested in it, they will have the upper hand and may even come out on top.
Of course, Baoyu cannot give up such an opportunity. Because of this, he completely disagrees with the eldest sister's advice not to have too much contact with the princes, but should remain a cold observer. In Baoyu's view, this is clearly giving up on his own initiative.
An opportunity.
"Well, Brother Feng may come to the house tomorrow, so you have to follow him carefully..." Baoyu gave the order after hesitating for a while.
"Ah? Second Master, do you want more?" Mingyan was surprised and said with a grimace, didn't she say she didn't care about that? Then why are you still following Uncle Feng?
"Humph, just follow, don't follow too closely, just find out where Uncle Feng has gone. I didn't ask you to master everything he did. Why are you panicking?" Baoyu glanced at Mingyan, of course he
He will not tell Mingyan his intentions.
"No, I just feel uneasy in my heart. The name of a person is the shadow of a tree. Uncle Feng is the Prime Minister of Shuntian. If he notices it, the second master is fine. Maybe he will take down the little one and pull him back.
A slap from the government office can kill the child." Mingyan became more and more panicked as she thought about it.
"You are such a genius, who told you to expose yourself? Just treat it as if you were wandering around in the house, even talking, walking around with Baoxiang Ruixiang, and just watching where Brother Feng goes. You can do this
Can't handle it all?" Baoyu scolded angrily.
Mingyan shrank her neck and didn't dare to speak anymore.
Baoyu was so angry that he gasped, and after a while he said helplessly: "When the time comes, I will ask Bihen to come over and help. If you don't feel comfortable going, then ask Bihen to help and watch. Brother Feng won't care about a person."
The girl’s whereabouts.”
After hearing that Bihen was asked to cooperate with her, Mingyan realized that the second master was serious this time. She didn't know what was weird here, but judging from the second master's tone and appearance, it didn't seem like he wanted to harm Uncle Feng.
Mingyan didn't dare to think too deeply.
Until the relationship between Brother Feng and Sister Feng is clarified, Baoyu will never feel at ease.
He had a hunch that the eldest sister seemed to be fascinated by Brother Feng. He observed that the eldest sister's expression was very abnormal, even a little confused and longing. This was too abnormal and should not be taken lightly.
Anyway, the eldest sister will only be back for three days, and she will return to the palace the day after tomorrow, which means it will be a day and a night. As long as she keeps an eye on it, if there is any abnormality, she will have to destroy this possibility even if she is brave.
To avoid getting out of control in the future.
Bihen is a reliable person, and if he cooperates with Mingyan, he should be able to complete this task.
