[Red Mansion] The third master of jade-like stone treasures

Chapter 135

Bao Cong was imprisoned, and everyone in the Jia family panicked!

He is the only member of the Jia family who is still an official in court, how could he be put in prison?If he also loses his official position, then the Jia family will really become ordinary people in the market from the family of officials!

Mrs. Wang, who was still convalescing, struggled to get up from the bed, coughed and coughed, and shouted: "Hurry up! Get the car ready! I'm going to see my mother!"

Only Yuanchun can enter the palace to intercede. Doesn't Emperor Zhao like the little princess very much?For the sake of the child, can he soften his heart towards the Jia family?

But Mrs. Wang was really seriously ill, she barely got up and couldn't get out of the room.But she insisted, Baochai and Xiren had no choice but to work together to help her out.Who made everyone focus on the Jia family and Bao Cong at this time?

Baoyu lost his official position and was rejected by Emperor Zhao; Yuanchun lived in another garden, eating fast and praying to Buddha, which was similar to Lenggong; thing.

Mrs. Wang knew very well that if Bao Cong collapsed now, the Jia family would be completely gone!

Baoyu came in worried, saw the sick Mrs. Wang rushing out, hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, sent her back to the bed to lie down, and said, "Mother, what are you going to do if you don't take good care of your illness?"

Mrs. Wang could still hear Jin Baoyu's words, but she was still in a hurry, and said, "What's wrong with me? If something happens to your younger brother, it's useless for me to live up to heaven! He's just been sent to prison now. It's time to let your eldest sister carry the little princess into the palace to intercede, maybe the Holy Majesty will be more lenient to your brother for the sake of their mothers!"

Baoyu hurriedly said: "Mother, don't worry. I just came back from the Beijing Palace. The King of Beijing has promised to help me out. As soon as there is news, I will send someone to report it. I am going to my eldest sister. Why don't you wait for the King of Beijing at home?" Message, otherwise, if you drag this sick body along, Big Sister will still worry about you."

Mrs. Wang thought for a while, and this is the reason. When she is in a hurry, she can't make any more trouble, so she urges Baoyu to go there for her quickly, and then tells her: "You must let your eldest sister carry the little princess into the palace to intercede. Whether you cry or make trouble, you must keep your brother!"

Baoyu nodded again and again: "I see, mother, don't worry! Eldest sister has always been close to Baocong, so she won't ignore him."

This is true, among so many brothers and sisters, Yuan Chun loves Bao Yu Bao Cong the most, and he is closer to Bao Cong and keeps in touch with him more.

Baoyu bid farewell to Mrs. Wang, got into the carriage in a hurry, and then poked his head out to order Mingyan: "Send someone to send a letter to Sister Lin, please don't worry too much, Baocong will be released soon. Also, let Qingshuang and Qingwen packed up too, and went to the Royal Garden with me."

Didn't King Zhongshun say that their Jia family can't afford official slaves anymore?He gave Qingshuang and Qingwen to the eldest sister and the little princess.The Jia family can't afford it, so the royal family can't afford it?This time, let's see how King Zhongshun used this to impeach Bao Cong!

Half an hour later, Baoyu and Qingshuang Qingwen met, and after a hasty confession, they knocked on the door.

The person who opened the door was not the usual concierge, but an unfamiliar guard.

But Baoyu pretended to be something in his heart and didn't think about it carefully. He held back and said eagerly: "Brother guard, please tell me, the second brother Baoyu was ordered by his mother to come to visit the empress and the little princess, and hope that the empress will receive him."

The guard did not open the door completely, but instead held a sword across his chest, and said coldly: "Recently, there have been small bandits entering the capital, and I have ordered the emperor to guard here to protect the safety of the concubine Yuan and the little princess. Do not disturb the empress Qingxiu for any reason!"

"What?" Baoyu said in surprise, "but I am my mother's younger brother, and I came to visit my mother at my mother's order! Could it be that my mother doesn't even see her close relatives?"

The guard still said coldly: "Without the emperor's oral order, no one is allowed to disturb Yuanfei Empress Qingxiu."

strangeness?how so?

Baoyu was very puzzled, and was about to say something to prove her identity, but was stopped by Qingshuang.

Qingshuang shook her head, leaned closer to Baoyu, and said in a low voice: "Second Lord, don't waste your time talking, look at his clothes, he is the imperial guard in the palace. The Holy Majesty said it was for protection, but it looks like the empress is under house arrest and isolated from the outside world. news."

"Since there is an imperial decree or a Yi decree, then they will definitely not allow people to meet with the empress. Why not find a way for me and Qingwen to go in first, and then look for opportunities to ask to see the empress."

"fair enough!"

Baoyu nodded, and then went up to the guard and said, "These two were servants who served my mother. Because my mother was seriously ill a few days ago, my mother was worried, so I specially asked them to visit to show my filial piety. Now my mother's condition has improved. I sent them back. I also ask the adults to accommodate and let them go back to serve."

Qingshuang Qingwen lowered her eyes and bowed behind her, she looked very honest and honest, but their appearance was too outstanding, it was hard to believe that they were just servants.

The guard looked the two of them up and down, but they didn't move at all, showing no intention of letting them in.

Baoyu was in a difficult situation, but saw Qingwen groaning and leaning on Qingshuang's body, and said delicately: "My feet are sore, how can I dance on Halloween!"

Qingshuang also changed her previous honest appearance, supported Qingwen and said nervously: "Are your feet sore? Why don't I rub them for you later? Your Majesty has ordered you to take good care of your feet. Your Majesty likes them the most. Look at your whirling dance! I heard that on Halloween, the empress will send you into the palace to dance for the Holy Majesty to see..."

The two came back and forth, pretending to say a lot, all implying that they were specially prepared by Yuan Chun to please Emperor Zhao on Halloween.

Who in the palace doesn't understand the way women in the harem compete for favor?Bright red today and purple tomorrow, things in the harem are always unpredictable.

The guard looked at Qingwen and Qingshuang again, and his eyes became more clear.Yuan Chun has lived in the other garden outside the palace for a long time, and if he wanted to take advantage of Halloween to please Emperor Zhao, it would be normal for him to return to the palace.

Another month will be Halloween, maybe when Concubine Yuan returns to the palace, the Jia family will skyrocket again.Is it okay to sell a little favor?

"Okay, okay, come in!" The guard waved his hand, took two steps back, and let Qingwen Qingshuang in.

It's just that Baoyu vaguely saw that the two of them were surrounded by guards, and they didn't know when they would see Yuanchun.And after Yuan Chun heard the news, would he be able to enter the palace in time to intercede for Bao Cong?

Before, he visited the King of Beijing and asked for a souvenir, hoping to use it to visit Bao Cong in the prison.Unexpectedly, in the prison, even after seeing the souvenir from King Bei Jing, they would not let him in to visit.

The guarding jailer only bit his tongue and said, "The Holy One has ordered that no one is allowed to visit."

It's strange, Bao Cong is only a suspect and has not been convicted yet, but Emperor Zhao doesn't allow people to visit him. Is it possible that he is afraid of collusion?But Baocong's charges... there's nothing to make a confession about, right?Bogda's family is thousands of miles away, and Qingshuang's identity cannot be changed by making confessions, and Yushixuan can't just disappear in the street...

Baoyu didn't know anything about the situation in the court, but only heard about some charges of impeachment against Baocong. At this time, seeing that the jailer turned him away, he had to go back and ask the king of Beijing for help.

King Beijing only said: "This king only heard that there was chaos at the court meeting! Everyone worked together to impeach Bao Cong for the three major crimes of treason, forming a party for personal gain, and accepting bribes, and stated more than a dozen minor crimes. Naturally, I know him. Loyal to the monarch and love the people, it is impossible to commit these things.”

"However, King Zhongshun's rhetoric in the court was so eloquent that the officials were furious. They were afraid that the Holy Majesty would have no choice but to imprison him temporarily. The Holy Majesty said that he would send someone to investigate clearly. If he was guilty, he would be judged according to the law. If he was not guilty, he would be punished. Also clear him up."

Baoyu was very worried: "Even if we want to investigate, we can't stop our relatives from visiting, right? How can there be such a side that you can't see? And his charges are mostly framed, which are fabricated out of nothing, but the Holy One does not allow others to visit Baocong. Isn't it weird?"

King Beijing couldn't tell, so he only agreed to Baoyu to inquire for him.

Thinking of this, Baoyu stood in a daze at the gate of Bieyuan for a while, and then ordered Mingyan to drive to Feng's house.

He is going to visit Feng Tang, Feng Tang is a close minister of the emperor, maybe there is some news that others don't know.

In fact, Baoyu was a little apprehensive when facing Feng Tang.He is not only an important minister in the court, but also Baoyu's elder.Every time they meet, they always have a straight face, either seriously discussing state affairs and public conditions, or talking about political views and etiquette, which is dozens of times more difficult to get along with than his son Feng Ziying.

If Feng Ziying is in the capital, Baoyu must first find Feng Ziying and ask him to introduce someone to sit with him.But he wasn't there, and Baoyu had no choice but to bite the bullet for Baocong now.

Baoyu was running around outside, and Baocong was racking his brains in prison.

Suddenly being thrown into prison, the family must be in chaos!

Naturally, Bao Cong was most worried about Lin Daiyu, afraid that she would think too much, and that she would get sick from being frightened.

Originally wanted to bribe the jailer to bring a message of peace to the family, but the jailer refused.Don't talk too much, don't even talk to him a few more words.

Bao Cong thought to himself, his popularity is not that bad, so he is not welcome by others, right?Why can't you even ask for help?

Besides, this Fu Yin's prison is not a sky prison, so he hasn't been convicted yet?Maybe it will be an official ordered by the court to be released tomorrow, so why does this jailer dare to offend him?

You must know that the official servants in the capital are the best at judging their identities by looking at their faces. Nine out of ten people walking on the main road are nobles.In other places, officials patrolling the streets are like grandpas parading.Officials in the capital patrol the streets, all of them are honest and peaceful, and they will not yell at the hawkers who buy vegetables.

Who knew that these peddlers and that big official were related by twists and turns?

And he was originally the son of the Jia family in Ningrong Second Mansion, thanks to the fame of Baoyu's jade, there is no one in the whole capital who does not know their brother.

Knowing the origin of Bao Cong's identity, the jailer dared to ignore him like this, obviously he had received very tough orders behind his back.

The jailer refused to help him, and Bao Cong wanted to know the news outside, so he could only lean into the illusion to take a closer look.

But people are in prison and cannot disappear out of thin air.If it is regarded as a prison escape, it will be difficult to deal with the situation.

So Bao Cong waited patiently until midnight, when everyone was asleep, and he quietly entered the illusion under the cover of night.

While controlling the position and size of the boulder, looking for Lin Daiyu, while paying attention to the movement outside the illusion.There wasn't much time, so he had to see everything he needed to see quickly.

Fortunately, he has a good habit of sculpting, always giving a complete picture of the orientation.According to the location and distance of the palace, Bao Cong quickly found his home.

Magnifying the boulder several times, Bao Cong can see his own small courtyard when he looks closer.

The courtyard was brightly lit, and the maids and servants were all guarding their posts, and no one went to rest.The main house is not closed either, there are people talking indistinctly inside, and Bao Cong can't hear clearly even if he gets close.

Not long after, Zicuckoo brought out an old doctor and a medicine boy, and called a young boy: "You go with Doctor Zhang, and when you catch the medicine, ask the small kitchen to cook it immediately. Let the driver drive the car more steadily, and don't rush to bump it. doctor."

Bao Cong's heart suddenly sank, secretly thinking that Lin Daiyu was really worried and fell ill.Otherwise, why don't you invite a doctor here in the middle of the night?

With a big sigh, Bao Cong tried his best to get closer to the main house, trying to see Lin Daiyu from the window, but the room was covered by screens and bed curtains, so he couldn't even see a single strand of Lin Daiyu's hair!

What did you think when you first finished the house?Afraid that the window is facing the bed, and the wind is blowing on Lin Daiyu... This is a good time, even if I want to take a look at the people in the room.

If Lin Daiyu could really see the window from the bed, see Bao Cong leaning on the eaves of the hallway, and staring into the room with a big eyeball, she might scare half her life away!
