【5300-word chapter ~】

Because the emperor suddenly came to rid himself, the Hongmen Banquet in Kunning Palace naturally ended in vain.

But when Emperor Longyuan followed Jia Yuanchun to Yuyunyuan, he changed his joyful appearance just now and sat on the couch with a gloomy face and was speechless.

Jia Yuanchun personally served tea. Seeing that the emperor did not want to provoke him, he thought that the incident was entirely caused by his younger brother, so he still bit the bullet and persuaded: "Your Majesty, if this self-destruction of the palace gate is spread, I am afraid that the outer court will want it again..."

Before she could finish her words, the emperor stood up suddenly and gritted his teeth and asked, "You said I don't know the reason for this?! You said I am really a foolish monarch who is distracted from his ambitions?!

Hearing his teeth clattered, and his forehead was even more blue veins leaping. Jia Yuanchun hurriedly knelt down and bowed to confess his guilt: "It's my fault. Please take care of the dragon's body!"

She suddenly shortened this piece, and the emperor was full of anger and couldn't vent any more. Finally, she could only sit back on the couch and sighed: "Oh~ I'm not urging you, let's get up and talk first. Last time I went to the Ministry of Rites, the Inspectorate submitted a memorial to ban the work show. I deliberately kept it and refused to post it. I originally wanted them to retreat and then hand it over to the Ministry of Works to supervise the matter."

"Who thought that this morning, the Ministry of Rites reported that the work-students were considered professionals. They should follow the imperial examinations and be admitted to the school before they can become officials after they have achieved fame. This is simply ridiculous. If I fulfill their wishes, I am afraid that the craftsmen and officials will be cut off from now on, let alone industrial innovation!"

As he said that, he couldn't help but get up, and gritted his teeth with red faces and said, "Strangely, since ancient times, there are many foolish monarchs, and there are only a lot of them forced out by these disobedient ministers!"

After a pause, I finally couldn't help but say: "If I had to force myself, I might not be able to be a tyrant!"

After hearing the emperor's violent argument, Jia Yuanchun was inexplicably frightened and wanted to persuade him, but because of the rules that the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, it was difficult to explain too thoroughly. In addition, when he talked about his age last time, he was even rejected by the emperor, "Ten thousand years are too long." In the end, he could only be indifferent.

Emperor Longyuan vented for a long time and found that she had become a saw-mouthed gourd again. He didn't say a word or comment, and he felt bored. So he changed the topic and said, "I won't talk about these things for now. In fact, in addition to playing with things, I have also done things to compete with the people for profit..."

…………

But it was said that it was afternoon.

It was heard that Jia Baoyu had brought the bicycle into the palace, and Jia Zhen and Jia Rong and his son rushed to Rongguo Mansion excitedly.

Because Jia Zheng is still recuperating, Lin Zhixiao, who was welcoming guests, originally planned to invite Jia Lian out to see the guests, but Jia Zhen hurriedly stopped him and said with a smile: "Don't disturb Brother Lian, we are here only for Baoyu this time - you are busy with yours, we are here to wait for him..."

After all, he was not an outsider and often came and went there every day, so Lin Zhixiao responded respectfully and ordered the maid to serve tea and snacks, and left someone outside the door to wait for the orders, so he went to do his own business.

However, Jia Zhen, Jia Rong and his son sat for nearly an hour while watching the tea and snacks. During this period, they kept imagining that bicycles opened up sales. Ning Guofu also followed the bright prospect of making money every day. Not only did they not feel bored, but they became more and more excited.

Just wait until the sun sets westward.

Jia Baoyu came back with the big bags purchased on the road. He jumped out of the car and asked the servant to send some of them to the house of the old lady and Wang Xifeng. Lin Zhixiao received the news and said repeatedly: "The Second Master is back. Uncle Zhen and Brother Rong have been waiting in the small flower hall of Neiyimen for more than an hour!"

Jia Baoyu was stunned at first when he heard this, and then his face, which was originally quite festive, collapsed. He beat his chest and stamped his feet: "Oh no, oh no, why did I forget that Brother Zhen has for a moment?!"

He beat his hands and was anxious and wandering around.

Seeing this, Lin Zhixiao hurriedly asked what was wrong and whether to report it to his wife or the old lady.

Jia Baoyu waved his hand irritably, just as he was about to call him not to make noise, he suddenly remembered something again, so he hurriedly said, "You go to the Jiao family to ask, see when Brother Jiao will come back. When you come back, be sure to ask him to go to Yihong Courtyard to find me!"

Lin Zhixiao asked respectfully, and asked again: "On Mr. Zhen..."

"Don't tell Brother Zhen that I'm back!"

Jia Baoyu said, pulling the collar and saying, "I won't say it anymore. I'm sweating all over today. I'm in a hurry to go back to wash and change my clothes."

As he said that, he led Li Gui and a group of noble slaves to the Grand View Garden.

Lin Zhixiao had no choice but to go to the Jia family in person. He was hesitating to shout in the yard. When Xiangling came out of the east wing to pour water, he saw him quickly turned around and shouted: "Hongyu, Hongyu, Uncle Lin is here!"

“Where?!”

When Lin Hongyu heard this, she hurriedly put down her work. Seeing that it was indeed his father coming to the door, she said happily: "Dad, are you here to see me?"

"It happens to be an errand. If you really want to see you, your mother will come."

As Lin Zhixiao's family said, he couldn't help but look at his daughter up and down, but he saw that she was much different than when she was in Baoyu's house. Her face changed its glory and her body was completely stretched out. The place where she was originally budding also swelled towards the ripe melon stems, and there were more jewelry on her head and hands.

This made Lin Zhixiao feel relieved, but he couldn't help but feel the sourness of his own cabbage being hunched.

It was not until Hongyu asked about his purpose that Lin Zhixiao came to his senses and hurriedly told what Baoyu had ordered.

Lin Hongyu took out a gilded pocket watch from her clothes neatly, and glanced at her eyes and said, "If we are not tripped by official duties, our grandfather should be back soon--but if we are tripped, we can't tell when it will be."

As he said that, he wanted to take Lin Zhixiao to sit in the west wing hall. Lin Zhixiao hurriedly waved his hand and refused, saying that he should have replied to Mr. Bao Er. Besides, there are also Mr. Zhen and his son on the Neiyi Gate. I am afraid that I am already impatient at this moment, and someone must be careful to deal with it.

Hongyu kept sending her father out of the ward, and watched him leave reluctantly. Then she returned to the east wing and gave what Lin Zhixiao had just told her to listen to.

Xing Xiuyan heard that it was related to Mr. Zhen from the East Mansion, and with the news that Baoyu entered the palace with a bicycle, she immediately guessed the cause and effect.

But why did Jia Baoyu refuse to see Jia Zhen alone and instead wanted to bring her master with her, she had no idea for the moment.

Seeing this, Si Qi advised: "There is an old man outside. Why do you care about such little things? Taking advantage of the cool moment, I will help you to the yard for a walk."

As he said that, he lit Xiangling's general again. The two of them supported Xing Xiuyan from left to right and walked slowly along the corridor.

Only Yuchuan and Hongyu were left in the house, so they naturally had nothing to say to each other.

After about another cup of tea, the carriage stopped outside the door, and then Lai Wang and Jiao Shun came in from outside side by side.

Si Qi and his two hurriedly supported Xing Xiuyan and went up to see him.

Lai Wang couldn't talk to his son and concubine, so he only told Siqi to take good care of his aunt, so he went to the main hall to change clothes and wash.

After his father left, Jiao Shun was about to step forward to replace Xiangling. Xing Xiuyan hurriedly said, "Brother Bao sent someone to invite him just now. It sounds like there is something urgent. The old man should go back to the house and change his clothes and leave."

Jiao Shun asked what was going on, but she didn't answer. She only told Lin Zhixiao that Hongyu knew the reason before and after.

Jiao Shun knew that she didn't want to steal the opportunity for the maids to invite her to favor her. She smiled and took out a bag of candy from her sleeve and handed it to her: "This is the milk candy of Westerners. If you can't bite it, just hold it in it."

Then he turned around and went to the east wing.

Because he was afraid of missing his father's job, Hongyu had been waiting at the door, so naturally he heard the two of them just now. While thanking Aunt Xing, she was generous and considerate, while busy serving Jiao Shun to change clothes and wash, she also told him what he knew and heard from the beginning.

After hearing this, Jiao Shun was also confused about Jia Baoyu's rush to find him.

He took out another milk candy, peeled the paper and stuffed it into Lin Hongyu's mouth, and smiled and said, "I'm all in this mansion now, and I haven't restrained you. Go home if I have time, or when we move to Zijin Street next year, it will not be so easy to come back."

Hongyu held the candy in her mouth, and when she heard the old man was so considerate, she had been sweet from her throat to her heart.

Yuchuan was a little disliked because she took the lead, but she thought that she had been taught a lesson by the old man last time, so she didn't dare to reveal it.

So after Jiao Shun left, she gritted her teeth and wrapped it around her body with a slender strip of cloth for a few times, wrapped the fallen object on her chest, and then took out the rope and jumped three or five hundred times in a row until her legs were sore and then stopped.

Recently, whenever she needs to vent her emotions, she will do this. When others ask about it, they only say that she is learning from the old man to strengthen her body - this is not all lies. She jumped rope to increase the strength of her lower limbs, so that one day she pretended to lock the old man off accidentally so that she could break the method of contraception!

Not to mention this.

However, Jiao Shun saw that it was getting late, so he did not enter the Grand View Garden in order to avoid suspicion. Instead, he asked someone to pass on a message and call Jia Baoyu to come out to meet.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Baoyu came out dejectedly. Seeing this, Jiao Shun thought that he had suffered setbacks in the palace, so he began to comfort him: "So many people in the Ministry of Works are not optimistic about this bicycle, and it is common sense that Your Majesty is not happy..."

"Who said the emperor doesn't like bicycles anymore?"

Jia Baoyu interrupted Jiao Shun's words in confusion, then scratched his head and said distressedly: "I obviously like it too much!"

Jiao Shun was surprised and said, "Isn't this just right? Why do Brother Bao still look dejected?"

"This...ah!"

Jia Baoyu sighed with a small round face, raised his hand forward and said, "Let's talk about it when I see Brother Zhen."

Jiao Shun was confused by him, but it was not far from the Neiyimen Flower Hall, and it was not too difficult to get these few steps.

So he went to the inner ritual gate with him.

As soon as he arrived near the small flower hall, Jia Zhen, who had received the news, couldn't wait to greet him. From a distance, he laughed and said, "Brother Bao is back! Brother Jiao is also here? It's just right, just talk, can that bicycle still enter the emperor's eyes?"

Jia Baoyu spread his hands and smiled bitterly: "It's not just about His Majesty's eyes. His Majesty even uses lunch on the school ground. He has become more skilled than I rode in just half a day. I heard from His Majesty's words, saying that he would remove all the thresholds and ride a bike in the future."

This is even more exaggerated than what Jia Zhen and Jia Rong had previously imagined. Thinking of this, the bicycle would no longer have to worry about sales. Both of them were smiling and unable to stop.

Jiao Shun knew that things were not that simple, and asked from the side: "Why are Brother Bao so depressed? Is there something else to say?"

"this……"

Jia Baoyu looked at Jia Zhen opposite him, and his eyes were stammered with embarrassment, and said stutteringly: "Your Majesty has taken a fancy to this thing and plans to spend some of the capital to do business with us."

"This is actually happening?! This is such a great blessing!"

Jia Zhen was so excited that his hands and feet trembled. He didn't think that it was just a purchase, but he actually got involved with the emperor?!

This is the future...

"etc!"

Jia Zhen was imagining the future, but Jiao Shun next to him frowned and pointed at the key question: "I wonder how this stock is divided?"

Jia Baoyu simply lowered his head and said like a mosquito: "The Ministry of Works accounts for 10% of the shares. Your Majesty, Brother Jiao and I each account for 30% of the shares."

The excitement on Jia Zhen's face froze instantly, but his hands trembled even harder. He opened his mouth for a long time before he asked: "Brother Bao, what are you saying? It's obvious that Brother Jiao and I want to do business together, but what, but what...

As he said that, he couldn't help but step forward and pull Baoyu.

Jia Baoyu was so scared that he suddenly came behind Jiao Shun and explained in shame: "I heard what the emperor said about the rise, and forgot that Brother Tizhen also occupied the shares in it. As a result, the result..."

"You, you...this, this..."

Jia Zhen was so angry that she almost vomited and bleeding.

Just now, he thought he had boarded the Tower of Heaven, but he fell down from the road of heaven again because Jia Baoyu didn't explain it clearly.

"Brother Zhen, don't be anxious!"

Seeing that Jia Zhen's face was red and black, Jia Baoyu hurriedly said, "I will transfer these 30% of the stocks to you then! Otherwise, I will explain it to the emperor in a few days and let..."

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate!"
