Turning the tide in the Red Chamber

Chapter 60 [060] Feng Tang was in command to guard the nine sides, Xue Pan beat the table and shocked the holy driver
Xue Pan gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, then loosened them, then clenched them again, and then loosened them several times.

There was struggle and hesitation in his eyes, because of the presence of Jia Baoyu and Jia Rong, he didn't dare to attack Jia Chen on the spot.

Now, I am fighting autumn wind with my mother and younger sister Lai in Rongguo Mansion. If I beat Jia Chen, who is also a descendant of the Jia family, in front of Jia Baoyu and Jia Rong, how can I stay in Rongguo Mansion?

Seeing Jia Chen coming, Jia Rong immediately got up and saluted:

"Rong'er met Uncle Chen!"

Now he respects and fears Jia Chen, but is also grateful. Fortunately, Jia Chen took action and beat Jia Zhen to the bed, unconscious. Otherwise, he would have to endure all kinds of humiliation and beatings from Jia Zhen.

Jia Chen calmly said:

"Rong'er is being polite!"

Seeing Jia Rong with a flattering smile on his face, he didn't hold any grudges against him for what happened to Jia Zhen, instead he only felt joy and gratitude, Jia Chen sighed in his heart:

The grandson of the Ningguo Mansion is so unbearable, the crow still wants to feed back, the lamb especially kneels and sucks, Jia Rong is simply inferior to a beast, unkind, unrighteous, unfaithful, how can he not be defeated?
Jia Rong couldn't even carry on the family line. It was probably a victim. Jia Chen had a normal orientation and didn't discriminate against men who walked by dry roads instead of waterways, but he was still a little out of touch.

Different road non-phase plan.

Jia Chen only maintains a seemingly friendly relationship with Jia Rong on the surface, but actually doesn't want to have a close friendship with this eunuch.

Jia Baoyu was simple-minded and younger than Jia Chen, so he also got up and saluted:
"I met Brother Chen."

Jia Chen smiled lightly and said:

"Brother Bao is polite."

For Jia Baoyu, Jia Chen can't say that he is disgusted. Baoyu is only twelve years old this year, and he is just a child who has not grown up. Why should he have such high expectations and requirements for him?

Feng Ziying invited Jia Chen to be the guest of honor, firstly because he respected and cherished Jia Chen's peerless talent, and secondly because he had already had a few meals with Jia Rong, Jia Baoyu and Xue Pan, and the relationship between each other They are already close friends, and it is the first time they meet Jia Chen, so they regard Jia Chen as a distinguished guest.

Seeing that Jia Chen was sitting in the main seat, Xue Pan was very dissatisfied, but he couldn't get angry, so he curled his lips and remained silent.

Seeing Xue Pan's constipated and aggrieved expression, Jia Chen guessed that the other party still harbored resentment towards him, but Xue Pan was lustful, ignorant, illiterate, stupid and stupid, and couldn't think of any deep conspiracy to pose a threat to Jia Chen. huge threat.

Jia Chen's lips curled into a sneer, if Xue Pan really wanted to make trouble for him, then I would take this opportunity to give him a hard lesson so that he would never dare to change his mind again.

This Lumingxuan is one of the top restaurants in Shenjing City.

It is famous all over the world for its self-brewed Dukang wine.

The name Lu Mingxuan comes from the song "Duan Ge Xing" by Cao Zei - "How can you relieve your worries, only Du Kang Yo Yo Luming, the apple of the wild food."

Around Lumingxuan, there are several brothels.

Alcoholic drinkers can spend money to order the prostitutes from the brothel to come to Lumingxuan to accompany their drinks.

There is also a thoughtful guest room in Lu Ming Xuan, if the drinker wants to, he can enter the guest room with Hua Niang for some lingering.

In the past, when Feng Ziying and the others came to Lumingxuan for a drink, they would definitely order some flower girls to cheer them up, but Feng Ziying and Jia Chen didn't dare to make a mistake when they met for the first time, so they didn't mention it. Let go of your hands and feet.

Feng Ziying has a forthright temperament, open-minded speech, and is tactful and sophisticated in his dealings with others. His ability is far above that of Jia Baoyu, Jia Rong and Xue Pan.

He will preside over the banquet, the atmosphere is lively, and the guests and hosts enjoy themselves.

It's just that today, he was rather unhappy, with an unconcealable sadness in his brows and eyes.

With a big face, Jia Baoyu asked with concern:
"Brother Feng, why are you depressed? But what happened at home?"

Jia Rong echoed:
"I heard that your father is old and has been at home all the time. Yesterday, His Majesty re-enabled him to be the commander-in-chief of the Nine Frontier Town. Could it be that Brother Feng is worried about this?"

Xue Pan yelled heartlessly:

"Isn't this a high promotion? This is a great thing! Why is Brother Feng depressed?"

"Good thing?" Feng Ziying snorted coldly and said:

"Since our Great Zhou suffered a disastrous defeat in the Battle of Sarhu, and the elites have been completely lost, most of the defenders in the Nine Frontiers Town are old, weak, sick, or recruits, and their combat effectiveness is extremely poor. My father was ordered to take command and lead How can such a mob fight against the Eight Banners cavalry? I'm afraid it will be a narrow escape!"

Da Zhou, like Da Ming in his previous life, also experienced the tragic Battle of Saarhu.

This battle ended with the defeat of the Zhou army and the victory of the Hou Jin army.

From then on, the Houjin army took advantage of the momentum to capture Kaiyuan and Tieling, and conquered the Yehe tribe. The chiefs Jintaiji and Buyangu were killed, and the rest of the tribe surrendered to Houjin.

After the war, the soldiers of the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry went straight to the outside of Shanhaiguan.

The elite of Liaodong Town, the strongest among the nine border towns, was completely disabled, and could only hide in Shanhaiguan and other passes, holding on to the danger.

The current important town on the Nine Sides is already in jeopardy, and the defense line may be breached at any time.

Under such circumstances, it would be a thankless chore for anyone to take command and guard the Nine Sides.

The possibility of winning the battle is very slim, and if you can barely hold it, you are already burning high.

Feng Ziying took two sips of spirits and said angrily:
"It's all the fault of Chongrui Xungui's gang of thieves. They are more active than anyone else when they are fighting against the wind. Once they encounter difficult battles, they shrink back and cringe. They have written letters asking His Majesty to appoint Jianguo to guard the nine sides. It's a pity that there are no handsome talents in the founding line, so His Majesty had no choice but to use my father."

As soon as these words came out, Jia Baoyu and Jia Rong's faces were very ugly. Both of them belonged to the descendants of Ning Rong in the founding lineage. The founding lineage's talents withered, and they also felt that their faces were dull.

Jia Chen didn't feel ashamed, he was just a side descendant of the Rong Mansion, and most of the Rong Mansion's resources were used to train the children of the direct line, but they failed to cultivate outstanding talents. left and right.

Xue Pan was even more indifferent. Although he was a relative of the Rong Mansion, he was only a descendant of the Imperial Merchant, and he never had a general who led troops to fight in his ancestors. Naturally, he had nothing to be ashamed of.

Feng Ziying realized that she had inadvertently belittled the Jia family, and hurriedly bowed her hands to everyone present:
"Just now I was depressed, and I said something indiscriminately, and I have spoken offensively, please bear with me!"

Xue Pan slammed the table and shouted:
"My brother, you don't have to be so polite. These imprisoned nobles are really deceiving! Don't let me meet them. Once I meet them, I will beat them once!"

He was immersed in the gentle countryside of debauchery and debauchery almost every day, and he didn't know how powerful Chongrui Xungui was, so he dared to speak wild words.

At the same time, Emperor Chongrui was sitting in the box next door drinking tea, suddenly startled by the sound of Xue Pan slapping the table, the teacup in his hand fell to the ground and smashed into pieces.

"Who is making such noise? Go to someone, let them stop!"
