Congratulations, you have received an invitation to the Gyazi Hot Spring Villa.
Although Gyazi felt that it was a little strange,
Why Mother Jia had to take Jia Min back at this time. However, she would not connect this matter with the Palace Examination today. Jia Daishan had been a little strange recently,
Jia Min going home to take care of the sick was a reasonable reason.
Gyazi and Jia Jing did not care about the results of the Spring Imperial Examination and the Palace Examination at all. This matter was too far away from them. In Jia Zhen's life,
He was destined not to be a scholar. Therefore, the Spring Imperial Examination and the Palace Examination had nothing to do with them. Even if the Xu Clan had another child immediately, it would be at least twenty years before that child could participate in the Spring Imperial Examination.
Jia Daishan was quite concerned about the results of the Spring Imperial Examination. After all,
His good son-in-law, Lin Hai, had participated in this year's Spring Imperial Examination and passed smoothly. After knowing that Lin Hai had successfully entered the Palace Examination, Jia Daishan was extremely excited. After all, he was the son of Marquis Lin.
The person he valued.
He was indeed promising.
However, this inexplicable excitement of Jia Daishan worried Jia Xie, Gyazi, and the others. They secretly discussed for a long time whether to invite an imperial physician back to take Jia Daishan's pulse.
Therefore,
Mother Jia suddenly sent someone to pick up Jia Min. Gyazi's first reaction was that Jia Daishan's illness had worsened again. After dragging Jia Jing to Rongguo Province in a hurry,
Gyazi was under Jia Min's envious gaze,
He swayed out,
He went to the restaurant to attend Feng Tang's appointment.
However,
Although Gyazi came out,
He was still a little absent-minded. What's wrong with that old man Jia Daishan? Could it be that he has some hidden illness?
"Hey." Feng Tang kicked Gyazi.
He asked curiously, "What are you thinking about?
Are you thinking so seriously? Tell us so we can have some fun. "
Gyazi glanced at Feng Tang.
Looking at the bustling crowd of onlookers on both sides of the road downstairs and listening to the incessant chatter, she pouted and said, "I really don't know what's so interesting about a bunch of nerds who don't even have the strength to truss a chicken. I might as well go to the bridge to watch monkeys perform!"
"Sky bridge!" Feng Tang and Du Ruo glanced at each other ambiguously and smiled tacitly. Even Wei Cheng and Chen Ruiwen had playful smiles on their faces.
"Tantang." Gyazi narrowed his eyes and looked at Feng Tang threateningly. He smiled and said, "It seems that I haven't visited General Feng in a long time."
Hearing Gyazi's words, Feng Tang jumped up and said, "No, no, no. My little ancestor, please don't. The old man is old. It's not right to make him so tired. "Feng Tang naturally understood the meaning behind Gyazi's words. Although he felt that he hadn't made any mistakes recently, he couldn't stop the old man from believing Gyazi's flowery words! More importantly, if the old man saw Gyazi and had any thoughts that he shouldn't have, how would he live the rest of his life?
Du Ruo looked at Feng Tang with a smirk and said, "It's not right to make General Feng so tired, but …"
"A Zi has always been considerate and respectful to the old," Chen Ruiwen said without thinking, "So she must be willing to help General Feng."
Gyazi shook his fist and smiled. "Of course, I've always respected the elders …"
Feng Tang and Du Ruo listened to Gyazi's self-praise without blushing. They both said one word in their hearts, "Bullsh * t."
"What?" Gyazi sensed that his friends were looking at him strangely. He raised his eyebrows and looked at them sharply. "Am I wrong? Okay, I'll go ask General Feng now. "As he spoke, Gyazi was about to stand up from the railing.
"Don't, don't." Feng Tang waved his hand and sighed. "A Zi, why are you still so hot-tempered? As your friend, I'm really worried about you. "
Wei Cheng rolled his eyes and took a step back. He raised his hand and covered his eyes. "A Zi, be quick. Don't spill blood on me."
"Xiao Weizi, you …" Feng Tang looked at Wei Cheng angrily. "Sinister."
"Wicked." Du Ruo also added a sentence.
Chen Ruiwen added, "Not loyal."
"Not loyal." Gyazi also said.
"Sigh!" Feng Tang sighed and concluded. "To have such a bad friend …"
The others followed Feng Tang's actions at the same time. They covered their foreheads with their hands and looked up at the sky. They shook their heads helplessly. "How unfortunate!"
Wei Cheng smiled and spread his hands. He looked like he didn't care what they said.
"Tantang." Gyazi yawned and leaned on the railing again. "Let's have some fun. It's so boring!"
"Tantang." Chen Ruiwen also leaned on the railing like Gyazi. "Let's have some fun. It's so boring!"
Du Ruo smiled and put his arm around Feng Tang's neck. "If you can't have any fun, let's go see the General Feng together. We'll have a good talk with him about his ideals and ambitions as the descendant of the General Feng."
Wei Cheng ignored Feng Tang's pleading eyes. He looked like he was taking pleasure in Feng Tang's misfortune. He mouthed the words "Serves you right" to Feng Tang. He thought to himself, I know what kind of people these people are, but I had to come and see the scene of the champion riding a horse and parading through the streets. Now I'm dumbfounded!
Feng Tang curled his lips. He had an expression that said, "Do you think I want to see this?"
Gyazi and the others were naughty problem children since they were young. Naturally, they were not liked by the teachers. They were also punished countless times by their families because of the teachers' complaints. Therefore, for them, the teachers who were full of nonsense were pedantic, weak, useless, and only knew how to complain. They were the people they needed to stay away from.
However, the elders in their families obviously didn't think so. They still hoped that their hedonistic children could have more contact with literati and receive more cultural influence.
Therefore, a few days ago, General Feng booked the box with the best view. He pulled Feng Tang's ear and asked Feng Tang and his friends to come and see the scene of the champion riding a horse and parading through the streets. This group of hedonistic children should have a good taste of what it means to be a refined scum. No, it should be the temperament of a modest gentleman.
However, to Feng Tang and the others, this was very boring. There was nothing to see about a group of weak bookworms — they were just gigolos. Especially the one who was going to be third place in the imperial examinations? The gigolos were the best among the gigolos.
Just when Feng Tang was complaining about his father in his heart, he suddenly saw a figure with his sharp eyes. He hurriedly touched Wei Cheng's stomach with a smirk and signaled with his eyes. Then he saw the same smirk on Wei Cheng's face. Here comes the fun.
Wei Cheng and Feng Tang secretly kicked Du Ruo and Chen Ruiwen again and made a gesture to be quiet. They looked at each other tacitly and laughed silently at the same time.
"Young master." A soft and weak voice suddenly sounded. Gyazi, who was a little sleepy with his back to the box door, suddenly opened his eyes wide and almost jumped over the railing.
Gyazi suddenly turned his head and looked at the white figure in front of him unexpectedly. He frowned. The person was about 15 or 16 years old and was wearing a white mourning dress. Although the material of the dress was not expensive, it was not cheap either. She only wore a white silk flower on her head and looked weak and pitiful. It was very good to confirm a sentence that Gyazi often said: If you want to be pretty, you have to be in mourning.
At this moment, the pretty girl was looking at Gyazi with a pair of big watery eyes and said with a voice that sounded like it could drip water, "Young master!"
Gyazi angrily stared at his super bad friends who were acting like quails on the surface but were happily watching the show. His eyes conveyed a message: Did you bring this jinx here?
They shrugged and shook their heads in the same way, looking as if it had nothing to do with them. However, their expressions betrayed them. Obviously, they were very willing to see Gyazi being "tortured" by this little white flower who was as weak as swaying in the wind. After all, Gyazi, who was strong and domineering since childhood, could not stand this kind of little white flower who pestered endlessly, fell down with a touch, and could not be beaten or scolded.
What's more, in the eyes of Feng Tang and the others, this little white flower who sold herself under the bridge to bury her father had ulterior motives. Otherwise, why would she ask for a hundred taels of silver to sell herself?
Although they had chased people like this little white flower out of the capital since childhood, to be honest, Gyazi, Feng Tang and the others met this little white flower by chance.
Gyazi had not returned to the capital for a long time. Now that she was back, she naturally could not stay at home all day. Therefore, she played around during the day and played with Jia Min at night. She told Jia Min all kinds of things she had seen and listened to Jia Min talk about her dreams.
That day, Gyazi happened to follow Wei Cheng, Feng Tang and the others to watch the monkey show under the bridge. They also bought candied haws for Jia Min. However, as soon as they entered the bridge, they saw a group of people not far in front of them.
A few people who always liked to watch a show looked at each other and quickly squeezed into the crowd to "watch the show". At the same time, they pricked up their ears and listened to the discussions around them. Soon, they figured out what was going on.
It turned out that this was a long-awaited show of selling one's body to bury one's father. After years of famine and famine, the father and daughter, who depended on each other for survival, were forced to leave their home and wander around. However, the father was sick and had no money to treat his illness. In the end, he passed away, leaving behind a pitiful and helpless daughter. The daughter really did not have the money to bury her father, so she could only choose to sell her body to bury him. However, her price was a little too high: 100 taels of silver.
Naturally, it was impossible for ordinary people to take out 100 taels of silver to buy this little white flower. She was also unwilling to lower the price, so she could only come here every day to wait for a buyer. During this time, it was not that no one wanted to help her and let her bury her father first. However, Little White Flower always put on a sacred and inviolable appearance, as if she would not accept food given to her. She would rather die than accept other people's help. Either they were generous, or they were not to disturb her. Therefore, the matter of her father's burial was delayed. It had been more than ten days since then.
However, today, a spendthrift finally appeared. There was actually someone who was willing to buy her for 100 taels of silver.
When Gyazi and the others heard this, they knew that the person who sold her must have other intentions. As for the person who bought her, he must have bad intentions. After all, no one would spend 100 taels of silver to buy a 15 or 16 year old girl to be their maid. The younger the maid, the better.
However, Gyazi did not expect this spendthrift to be her old acquaintance, Wang Zisheng. At the same time, Gyazi also saw Little White Flower's appearance clearly. White linen clothes, delicate appearance, and teary eyes. At this moment, she was looking up at Wang Zisheng with tears in her eyes.
"You really have the capital to sell her for 100 taels of silver!" Gyazi touched her chin and said casually. However, looking at the two people in front of her who looked like they had feelings for each other, Gyazi did not want to directly accept Wang Zisheng's request.
"Ahem," Gyazi coughed and interrupted the two people looking at each other. She smiled and looked at Wang Zisheng provocatively, "Wang Zisheng, what's wrong? Have you recovered from your injuries?" As she spoke, Jia Zi gently placed her hand on the whip at her waist. She looked like she was very willing to take out the whip and whip Wang Shengsheng again.
When Wang Zisheng heard Gyazi's voice, he immediately felt the pain all over his body. Why did I meet this living King of Hell again?
"Hmm?" Gyazi slightly raised her chin and looked at Wang Zisheng with a faint smile. Obviously, she was very willing to whip Wang Zisheng again in front of everyone here.
Wang Zisheng looked at the guards beside him and became a little bolder, straightening his back a little. However, when he saw Feng Tang, Wei Cheng, and the others, he suddenly shrank back. He could not afford to offend them, but could he not hide?
Seeing Wang Zisheng run away with his tail between his legs, Gyazi looked coldly at Little White Flower, who was looking at her expectantly, and turned to leave.
However, Gyazi did not expect Little White Flower to pester her. No matter how much Gyazi ignored her, even when she whipped her, Little White Flower put on a look that said, "You are my savior, I will follow you". She probably did not know Gyazi's identity, otherwise, she would most likely "kill" her way to Ningguo Province to find someone to take responsibility for it.
Wang Zisheng, who was dressed in silk and satin, looked a little pretentious, but in front of Wei Cheng, Feng Tang, and the others, he looked like an unlucky person who had overindulged. Especially since Gyazi was a girl, but she was dressed in men's clothes, which made her look even more androgynous. Little White Flower naturally gave up on Wang Zisheng and pestered Gyazi.
As for the money, Wang Zisheng gave her the money before running away. Therefore, while Little White Flower kept Wang Zisheng's money, she also pestered Gyazi. Every day, Gyazi would go around pestering Gyazi, and she would always look at Gyazi with a sad and affectionate gaze …
Due to her identity, Gyazi was not willing to do anything to Little White Flower, so she was annoyed by Little White Flower. Coupled with Little White Flower's aggrieved look, it was easy to arouse the sympathy of some people who did not know the truth. This made Feng Tang and the others addicted to watching the show, and it also proved Wei Cheng's words, "Why don't you go and buy it now?"
Of course, Gyazi did not know why Little White Flower was being pestered this time. If she knew that she would get into trouble with Little White Flower, she would rather use her own money to send Little White Flower into Wang Zisheng's arms.
Looking at the shameless woman in front of her with tears in her eyes, Gyazi rolled her eyes and showed a rare smile, "Since Little White Flower wants to climb up the social ladder, I'll fulfill her wish."
Gyazi knew about Mama Lai's status in Rongguo Province, and yesterday, when she hit the Lai Family and kicked them out of the house, it was a huge slap to the Lai Family's face. With the Lai Family's virtue and narrow-mindedness, they must be plotting revenge. However, even if the Lai family couldn't touch her, they still had the ability to touch the silly little girl who helped her catch the Lai family's second son.
Therefore, Gyazi directly asked the girl to stay by her side, "No one dares to trespass on my turf. Even the silly Jia Zhen, who was famous for his foolishness, would take a detour when he saw Waterside Pavilion."
As for the reason Gyazi went to Rongguo Province, if it was not for Mama Jia's advice and Jia Min's expectant eyes, Gyazi would not want to go!
Gyazi thought back to the night before, when Mama Jia specifically told her that in order to celebrate her triumphant return, the few old relatives in the family decided to get together. Gyazi's lips curled up in disdain, "What old relatives? Just say that it's the Shi Family and the Wang Family!" As for the "pearls of earth and gold of iron" Xue family, they were far away in Jinling, so they probably would not appear.
As for the in-laws in Ningguo Province, she should either visit them or come to Ningguo Province to visit her. Naturally, they had nothing to do with Rongguo Province.
As for the Jia Lian's maternal grandfather, the Zhang Family, last night, Jia Jing rambled on and said, "At that time, the two families were about to fight. I … I, as the head of the family, was too ashamed to say it. Even I feel ashamed to say it."
Although Gyazi did not know what happened between the Jia Family and the Zhang Family, she did not need to think too much to know that the weak and scholarly Zhang Family was forced to fight. Something that even Jia Jing felt was shameful. It must be the Jia Family who did something wrong.
Without alerting anyone, Gyazi quietly entered Rongguo Province. She was not in the mood to see a group of middle-aged women pretending to be passionate. She simply found the familiar path and found a big tree in the garden and climbed up easily. She needed to calm down …
However, Gyazi did not expect that she would hear something that she did not want to hear even more when she just wanted to find a place to calm down.
"Tsk tsk," under the tree, a voice that made people want to take a whip came from afar, "My Sister Min is so beautiful, that small waist …"
Gyazi looked up and realized that the owner of the familiar voice was actually Wang Zisheng. No wonder her hands were so itchy!
"Brother Zhen, don't worry," Shi Ding, whose face was full of acne, patted his chest and smiled flatteringly, "Mama Lai is a member of the Shi Family. With her, our brother will guarantee that you will have everything you want. "
At this moment, the strange man who had his arm around Wang Zisheng's shoulder also smiled slyly, "By the way, why is Sister Min still not married?"
Wang Zisheng smiled slyly, "Waiting for you, Brother Zhen …"
Before he could finish his sentence, a whip came from the side and directly flipped Wang Zisheng to the ground.
"You motherf * cker …" Wang Zisheng rolled and tried to get up. But in the end, the fierce whip came with a strong wind. Wang Zisheng hugged his head and curled up on the ground.
Wang Zisheng lay on the ground and looked up, only to see a pair of black boots in front of him. Looking at the boots, he saw a person dressed in black standing against the light. Her hair was tied behind her head, swaying slightly with her movements. The familiar whip in her hand revealed her identity: the Living Hell King of Ningguo Province, Gyazi.
Gyazi pointed her whip at the three Shi Brothers who were scared silly, "How dare you?"
The three Shi Brothers couldn't help but tremble. The Living Hell King was waiting for them here! Oh no, it's over. How did Wang Zisheng provoke her just now? Hurry up, hurry up, remember, or we'll be in big trouble …
Zhen Yingjia was also shocked by Gyazi's sudden appearance. He stood there trembling, completely forgetting how to react.
Just like the Jia, Shi, and Wang families, the Zhen family was also born in Jinling. The head of the family, Zhen Yingjia's mother, was the current nanny. It was because of this that the Zhen family was able to surpass the four big families in Jinling in just a few decades and become the biggest family in Jinling. Of course, this might also have something to do with the fact that the Jia, Shi, and Wang families had already moved their focus to the capital.
Later, Mother Zhen sent her daughter to the palace to serve the current emperor. Madam Zhen did not disappoint. After entering the palace, she was doted on by the current emperor and gave birth to the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince. Although she gave birth to the Second Prince, she didn't have the emperor's favor. This Consort Zhen, who was doted on by the emperor, had already become the most important person in the harem.
However, the current emperor also doted on the Zhen family very much. He had stayed with the Zhen family several times during his tour to the south. Today's attitude also caused many people who were good at sucking up to the powerful to flatter the Zhen family. Under the flattery of many people, the Zhen family took advantage of the current situation and turned Jiangnan into the Kingdom of the Zhen family.
Therefore, in an unknown place, the Zhen family quietly received a rather honorable title: Jiangnan Prince.
However, after seeing the wealth and benefits that power brought, whether it was the rich Zhen family or the Consort Zhen in the palace, they were no longer satisfied. Their power was now built on the current emperor's favor. Once the current emperor died one day and the Crown Prince ascended the throne, their power and wealth could be taken back at any time.
If they wanted this kind of power to last for a long time, there was only one way: the prince born from the Consort Zhen would sit on the throne and become the ruler of the world.
However, although the Zhen family had been in Jinling for many years and had produced a Gui Fei who was deeply doted on by the current emperor. However, the Zhen family really didn't have much influence in the imperial court.
Therefore, the Zhen family could only try to hug the current emperor's thigh while thinking of ways to make money from Jiangnan. At the same time, they also tried to make friends with the important officials in the imperial court. Especially the families known as the Four Great Families of Jinling. Because they had produced several important officials in the imperial court, they became the focus of the Zhen family to make friends with.
This time, the Zhen Yingjia came to the capital to make friends with the Four Great Families. After all, the heads of the Jia, Shi, and Wang Families had already moved to the capital. On the other hand, he wanted to choose a girl from the Four Great Families to be his wife. After all, the Jia, Shi, and Wang Families all had daughters waiting to be married.
This time, the Zhen Yingjia followed the Shi Brothers to Rongguo Province with the idea of seeing Gyazi or Jia Min. However, the Zhen Yingjia waited for a long time in Rongxi Hall, but didn't even see the shadow of the two people.
