In a wing room of Duke Rongguo's Mansion and Jia Mu's Courtyard, there was endless laughter.
Although Jia Qi was young, he had experienced a lot in the past few years. He started chatting all over the world and made witty remarks. In addition, with Sister Feng complimenting him by the side, everyone who listened was applauded and applauded.
But later, Baoyu said with some regret: "It's a pity that Sister Lin and Sister Bao are not here! Otherwise, they would have clapped and praised them!"
Xiangyun on the side rolled her eyes at Baoyu, "Brother Ai, you know how to talk nonsense. Sister Lin has gone home a long time ago! And Sister Bao, the window in the room was not closed yesterday and she caught a cold.
, I’m still resting now!”
Baoyu was slightly startled, "What did you say? Wasn't it fine yesterday? Why did you catch a cold?"
But he said that after Baochai and Aunt Xue went back yesterday, in order to wake up Xue Pan as soon as possible, they opened the window a little, and the cold air poured in. Xue Pan was strong and had nothing to do, but Xue Baochai caught a cold. Now he is
Resting there in the Lixiang Garden, Xiangyun only found out about it this morning when he went to look for her. However, Baochai couldn't tell the whole story. She could only evade it by saying that the window was not closed properly.
Cool.
Tanchun looked at Jia Qi, who was above him, and said with a smile: "What's the matter? From now on, the second brother will invite Brother Qi to come and sit more often. Then he will invite Miss Lin and Miss Bao to come over. It's just that when the time comes,
At that time, I hoped that Brother Qi would reward me with millions of dollars, but today it is an eye-opener for me. I didn’t expect that Dakang still has such good things to do!”
Yingchun usually doesn't like to talk, but today she saw Jia Qi talking about those interesting things, which was very interesting, so she couldn't help but chime in.
"That's it! That's it!"
Wang Xifeng smiled and spoke to the side, "You think well, but Brother Qi is an official in the court. He has so much free time on weekdays. It's a fluke that he can come today. Don't be ignorant and just take it for granted.
If I think of dragging our Dakang champion to play tricks with you, God will probably be angry~"
Hearing Wang Xifeng's exaggerated agreement, the girls couldn't help but laugh again. After laughing, Xiangyun couldn't help asking softly: "Brother Xun, what kind of official title has the emperor granted you?"
Seeing Xiangyun making a sound, several other people also looked over, but Baoyu was not very interested, but did not show any expression. Just now at the door, he was frightened by Jia Zhenghao, and he knew that it would be difficult to offend Jia Qi in front of him.
, but in his heart he was thinking that he was a good brother, good-looking and interesting in speaking, but he only wanted to be an official in the imperial court. He couldn't figure out why he wanted to be a traitor to the country and a ghost.
Jia Qi replied with a smile: "I have been appointed as the crown prince's eunuch, and I don't have much official duties. I just went to court this morning a little early, and it was not bright yet, so I went out in the dark!"
Their boudoir daughters didn't know much about the officialdom. They didn't know what kind of official the crown prince was. However, they knew that Lin Daiyu's father, Lin Ruhai, was a senior official in the court. They heard that he was the minister of the Ministry of Rites and a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion, and he was in the cabinet.
.
So Xiangyun asked again: "Brother Qi, what rank of official are you? Comparable to Uncle Shanglin? I remember that his official rank was very big. None of our mansions have ever had such a big official!"
Jia Qi laughed twice. After all, she was a little girl. Maybe in their eyes, the official's job was not big, just compare with Pin Yi.
But in fact, it is not that simple. The prince and Taibao are officials from the first rank, but Emperor Kangdi of Ming Dynasty has not yet established a prince. This official title can only be regarded as an honorary title. It has a title but no position, and no real power. However, he is also
I think that even if he is established as a prince, Emperor Mingkang may not really allow himself to be a eunuch. Without him, his reputation is too high, and the prince cannot suppress him.
Lin Ruhai served as the Minister of Rites, one of the six departments of the imperial court. He was in charge of ceremonial affairs, schools, and imperial examinations. He had a lot of power. He had a feeling that Emperor Mingkang intended to reuse Lin Ruhai. After all, how much could he become in the imperial examination alone?
The influence that a senior student’s tutor can have is huge.
"Eternal God Emperor"
As for the cabinet, not to mention, he became a close minister of the emperor.
Then Jia Qi started to talk about some of the intrigues involved, but they had never been in contact with officialdom, so they just listened in confusion. In the end, they only knew that Lin Ruhai held real power. Jia Qi did not seem to have real power, and Jia Qi had no idea about it.
No matter what he said, the interactions between people should never be superficial. They were just meeting for the second time, so there was no need for him to say anything more.
However, when talking about being an official, everyone couldn't help but talk about studying. However, Jia Baoyu was quite disgusted with this and did not talk to him. Jia Qi just smiled at this. Speaking of which, this person was still a descendant of Chixia Palace.
The Shenying waiter who has gone through many calamities has a rich background and does not need to be looked after by himself.
After tea for three rounds, Jia Chu stood up and said goodbye. The girls got up to see each other off, but none of them passed the second door. Finally, the boy wanted to report to Jia for pardoning Jia Zheng, but Jia Chu stopped him and asked Jia Baoyu to accompany him.
With.
Looking at Jia Qi's leaving figure, there was a strange look in the eyes of the girls. They were both brothers, about the same size. After being alone together for a while, the sisters and brothers still felt something different. Jia Baoyu's temperament
He was still like a child, but Jia Qi was able to take charge of his own business and behaved more steadily. Although he was a champion, he was very talented in literature, which surprised them all.
"What a pity! I wish I could have stayed a little longer!"
Xiangyun sighed and said with regret.
A glimmer of light flashed deep in the eyes of Tanchun on the side, and he also chatted: "I originally thought that Brother Qi didn't talk much like the master? I didn't expect it to be like this. It really reminded me of a sentence~"
Hearing this, Xiangyun laughed, his eyes lit up, and he seemed to feel the same way and said: "Sister Tanchun, it turns out you feel this way too! I thought it was just me!"
How about we tell it together and see if it’s the same~"
When Yingchun saw this scene, she smiled and said, "Well, you two are so shameless that you actually talked about men in broad daylight! You are not afraid that those maids and women will hear you and chew you secretly."
Tongue!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!"
Xiangyun shook his head, not caring, and said with a smile: "People have their mouths, so let them say whatever they want! I can't control it anyway. I just go my own way and don't ask about the future. This is only in vain."
Let’s walk in style in this life!”
There was a carefree and unrestrained expression in her words, which made people feel that she had a suave masculine spirit flowing through her body. When Wang Xifeng saw it, she couldn't help but say hello, she is also very strong, and she wishes she could get one.
As a man, when I see Xiangyun looking so handsome, I can't help but feel a lot better about him.
Wang Xifeng pinched her waist and said with a smile: "Girl Yun, take care of yourself, grandma, I guarantee that no woman will dare to chew her tongue!
"
Xiangyun thanked him, then looked at Tanchun and signaled: "Sister Tanchun, I'll count to three, and we'll say it together~"
Seeing Xiangyun like this, Tanchun couldn't help but smile and nod. Wang Xifeng closed the door and said with a smile: "Girl Yun, let me be the commander! Then you just have to listen!"
When Xiangyun saw that Wang Xifeng wanted to be the commander, he did not refuse and nodded with a smile.
"Second sister-in-law, this is what you said~"
Then Wang Xifeng shouted three numbers with a smile, and Xiangyun and Tanchun said in unison: "A humble gentleman, as gentle as jade!"
When the two of them said it, they couldn't help but look at each other and smile. At this time, Baoyu happened to push the door in. They didn't go out the second door, but he went out. And he saw that today, the door of the house was actually wide open, and he let people in.
He was slightly startled. Ever since he could remember, the door to his house had not been opened a few times!
When he opened the door, he happened to hear what Xiangyun and Tanchun said. As soon as he came in, he couldn't help but said hello, "It's true, I felt the same just now. Just as I spoke, I discovered that Brother Qi is
If you have read the book, this is the sentence!"
Just saying this, he sighed again, "It's just a pity that a person with such character as Brother Qi actually went to the court to work as an official! What a flawless and beautiful jade that fell into the mire and wasted his natural resources!"
After hearing this, the faces of the girls changed slightly. Their daughters' families all knew the importance of doing things for officials, but Baoyu never cared about it. It was not easy for them to hold back their expressions just now, but they
Knowing Baoyu's temperament, it's hard to say anything.
But Wang Xifeng frowned and walked to Jia Baoyu's side, "Brother Bao, my sister-in-law has to say something to you. Don't be angry!"
Baoyu was stunned for a moment and said in a rather unhappy tone, "Does my sister-in-law also want to persuade me to become an official?"
Wang Xifeng laughed and poked his forehead, "Brother Bao, who do you think I am? How can I not understand your thoughts?"
Hearing Sister Feng's words, Baoyu smiled awkwardly and quickly apologized, "It's not my fault. My sister-in-law never says this to me on weekdays. I misunderstood my sister-in-law!"
Wang Xifeng sighed inwardly and continued: "Brother Bao, even if you don't want to see something, don't say it openly. You have forgotten that I have been very temperamental these days! And about Brother Xing, you
Don't talk nonsense, I was in the old lady's room and saw clearly that the two gentlemen respect Brother Qi very much. If you let him know that you said this, I will definitely slap you with a board!"
Hearing Sister Feng's words, Jia Baoyu's face changed slightly. He suddenly remembered what Jia Zheng had scolded him in the Rongqing Hall before, and he couldn't help but shuddered in his heart. Not to mention, he also felt it. In the past two days, Jia Zheng
His nose is not his nose, and his eyes are not his eyes. If it were not for the protection of the old lady, he might have been slapped by his own father.
When she thought of this, Jia Baoyu quickly bowed to Sister Feng and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law. I will personally set up a table tomorrow to thank sister-in-law!"
Seeing that Jia Baoyu listened, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but laugh. She really cared about her brother-in-law.
After saying that, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but glance around the room, with some surprise in her eyes, so she quickly asked: "By the way, Yingchun, Tanchun, and Yun, have you seen the four girls?"
When several people heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned. They didn't pay attention just now! Why, in the blink of an eye, Xichun disappeared.
Seeing that everyone was confused again, Wang Xifeng quickly ordered Ping'er beside her: "Ping'er, go and ask the maids and servants at the door if they have seen Miss Xichun?"
After hearing this, Ping'er quickly went to the door to inquire. After a while, she walked in quickly and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, Miss Xichun also went back to her room when the Marquis left!"
Hearing this, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but feel relieved. For her, now there is another little ancestor in the family, and that is little girl Xichun.
Just based on the fact that Jia Qi brought her back today and what the little girl did, she knew that Jia Qi treated her differently from the others in front of her. If something happened to her, what would happen to the current Jia family?
It’s also shocking.
Just then, an old woman came to report, "Second Grandma, the old lady asked you and some girls to come over for dinner!"
When Wang Xifeng heard this, a smile appeared on her face again, "It's good this time, we can have a reunion dinner again~ Little ancestors, let's go!"
On the street, Magpie lifted up a corner of the sedan chair and looked at the red figure in front of him. He held his little hands nervously and folded them on his legs. He bit his lower lip lightly with his teeth. He looked at the Hou who he saw for the first time.
Master, even though I saw him joking with several mistresses before and knew that he was not a mean and cold person, I still felt a little scared.
Jia Qi, who was at the front, thought about what the Jia family wanted this time. What reason should he use to do this?
Then he thought about the gold and silver jewelry he had plundered in the north this time, and it seemed that he was still not interested in it now? Will he take the opportunity to visit his nominal sister later?
Looking at the Hou Mansion getting closer and closer, Jia Qi felt relieved and secretly said in his heart, "I hope he is someone who understands current affairs..."
