Red Mansion: Defying The Heavens And Changing Fate, Concubine Wang Xifeng

Jia Rui had no idea that he had become the subject of the emperor's investigation.

The next day, after breakfast, Jia Rui came to "Sanqingju" near the palace, which is a high-end teahouse in Chang'an.

Jia Rui booked a private room.

In the morning, Xia Shouzhong did not show up.

Jia Rui was still waiting patiently and had lunch at the teahouse.

In the afternoon, Xia Shouzhong entered Jia Rui's private room.

Jia Rui directly pushed the two thousand taels of silver notes in front of Xia Shouzhong with a sincere voice——

"From now on, please help me, father-in-law!"

Xia Shouzhong was stunned and shocked by Jia Rui's generosity!

Xia Shouzhong had long expected that Jia Rui had invited him here to give him a gift.

Xia Shouzhong thought that Jia Rui would give him at most two hundred taels of silver!

Xia Shouzhong naturally looked down upon two hundred taels of silver.

The reason why Xia Shouzhong accepted Jia Rui's appointment was because he could see that Emperor Jing'an valued Jia Rui very much!

However, what Xia Shouzhong didn't expect at all was——

When Jia Rui takes action, he gets two thousand taels of silver!

Xia Shouzhong looked embarrassed——

"General Jia, I am a humble person and I cannot afford to be mentioned as a supporter!"

Jia Rui, who knew the plot, naturally knew that this was Jia Shouzhong's self-effacement!

Jia Rui waved his hand and said——

"Father-in-law, no matter if you are a soft-spoken person or not, I am determined to be your friend! You have a cup of tea first, and I'll take my leave first!"

After saying that, Jia Rui strode away!

As a result, Xia Shouzhong could only accept two thousand taels of silver notes!

Xia Shouzhong knew——

Two thousand taels of silver may not be particularly heavy for the heads of the Ning and Rong mansions.

However, for Jia Rui, two thousand taels of silver is definitely the majority of his net worth!

Putting two thousand taels of silver into his arms, Xia Shouzhong said to himself——

"Very good! Courageous!"

…

In the evening, the commander of the Jinyi Guard met with Xia Shouzhong before meeting Emperor Jing'an.

Both of them were the absolute confidants of Emperor Jing'an, and they were considered to be on the same side.

As for the sole real power, it is naturally the commander of Jin Yiwei.

However, when it comes to the length of time he spent with Emperor Jing'an, it is naturally Xia Shouzhong!

Xia Shouzhong was also better able to guess Emperor Jing'an's thoughts!

After glancing at the Jin Yiwei commander, Xia Shouzhong whispered——

"Although Jia Rui is a descendant of the Jia family, he is despised by the family."

The Jinyiwei commander knew that Xia Shouzhong was setting the tone for Jia Rui, so he nodded understandingly.

The imperial guardsmen knelt at the feet of Emperor Jing'an and said——

"Your Majesty, I have already investigated Jia Rui."

Emperor Jing'an was a little surprised and said: "So fast?"

The commander of Jin Yiwei said——

"Although His Majesty's order to the old slave is 'the more detailed the better', Jia Rui's experience is like a blank sheet of paper, you can see the end at a glance!"

Emperor Jing'an smiled: "Tell me."

The commander of the Jin Yiwei elaborated on how Jia Rui was discriminated against and ostracized in the Jia Mansion, and specifically mentioned——

When Jia Rui went to the ring, the Jia family thought that Jia Rui would die, so they sent a coffin to the ring and decided that after Jia Rui's death, the funeral would be simple.

Emperor Jing'an said: "The Jia family never thought that Jia Rui had special skills! Where did Jia Rui's kung fu come from?"

The commander of Jin Yiwei said——

"Report to Your Majesty: Before Jia Rui learned martial arts, he once begged the Jia Mansion to find a Martial Master for him through his grandfather, but was rejected by the Jia Mansion! Later, somehow, Jia Rui developed a unique skill."

Emperor Jing'an thought for a moment and asked the commander of the Jinyi Guards to retreat.

Now, Emperor Jing'an doesn't want to reuse Jia Rui yet. He is waiting for news from Prince Zhongshun!

…

Jia Rui, who has lived in two generations, knows very well the principle of "how much money you spend, how much you accomplish".

Therefore, when he knew that Xia Shouzhong was very powerful, Jia Rui invested two thousand taels of silver in Xia Shouzhong without hesitation!

Jia Rui didn't feel ashamed to give Xia Shouzhong a gift!

Because Jia Rui knows that things are the unity of opposites.

The servility now is for the sake of pride and pride in the future!

At that time, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty once bowed to the Overlord of Chu, but later he beat the Overlord of Chu Wu Jiang to death.

At that time, Li Tang once professed vassalage to the Turks, but later destroyed the Turks.

People under the eaves have to bow their heads.

People are on the roof, with their feet on the eaves.

…

Even though he knew that Jia Rui was given the title of "The First Warrior of Dashun", Jia Baoyu still looked down on Jia Rui from the bottom of his heart!

When talking about Jia Rui with Lin Daiyu, Jia Baoyu even showed contempt in his tone——

"I heard from the servants who were watching the battle that Jia Rui relied on a sneak attack to catch Imperial Master Qianxiang off guard, and then he was lucky enough to win. What kind of skill is that? It's just a 'blind cat meets a dead mouse'! Alas, when Without a hero, Zhu Zi became famous!”

Lin Daiyu just laughed.

Jia Baoyu said: "Besides, this dynasty has always valued culture over martial arts. Even if Jia Rui really becomes the number one warrior in this dynasty, his gold content will not be as valuable as winning a Jinshi!"

Lin Daiyu didn't speak, just looked at Jia Baoyu.

In Lin Daiyu's heart, she naturally looked down on the "first warrior" and the like, they were just martial artists who only recognized brute force!

Moreover, in Lin Daiyu's heart, she also looked down upon men who passed the Jinshi examination! Because her deceased father was once the top student at Apex Level and the top student in high school.

Seeing that Lin Daiyu was not interested in Jia Rui, Jia Baoyu changed the topic——

"Sister Bao has never seen her since she moved out of Lixiangyuan. I don't know if she has saved any good poems."

Lin Daiyu suddenly said: "Do you miss Sister Bao?"

Jia Baoyu's eyes widened and he felt hard to express his words——

Think about it, but I'm afraid Lin Daiyu will be angry.

If she says she doesn't want to, Lin Daiyu will say she cheated on her, and she will also be angry.

Therefore, Jia Baoyu did not answer, but asked -

"Sister Lin, can I not answer?"
