Spoilers for The Red Mansion, Daiyu’s mentality is broken

Chapter 90 Master’s wife falls ill

What?Master Zhao angered the Supreme Emperor and was arrested because of the memorial?
For a moment, Jia Huan's head was buzzing.

Although he had been apprenticed to Master Zhao for less than a year, Master Zhao was the best person to him in the world, except for his mother, Aunt Zhao.

Aunt Zhao is his biological mother, and the two are related by blood.

However, Master Zhao has no blood relationship with him, and he treats him well without expecting anything in return.

At this time, Jia Huan was in chaos. He didn't even say goodbye to Mrs. Wang, but turned around and ran out.

He wanted to go to Zhao Mansion to see what happened.

The master was arrested. I wonder what happened to the master’s wife?
Inside the house, Mrs. Wang saw that Jia Huan ran out immediately after learning the news. She completely lost her etiquette and did not take her seriously, so she became furious.

But soon, she sneered.

She called to Zhou Rui's family and said, "Go and ask, where did Brother Huan go in such a hurry?"

"Yes, ma'am."

Soon, Zhou Rui's family rushed to report: "Madam, after brother Huan left Madam's house, he went out of the house directly. I heard that he went to Zhao's house."

Ok?
Zhao Heng was arrested today, and Mrs. Wang just learned the news.

After learning the news, she felt very happy.

It's all this old guy. If it weren't for him, how could that evil concubine become a scholar?

So what now?Did you get retribution?

She told Jia Huan the news just to make Jia Huan lose his sense and make him fail in the provincial examination.

She did not expect that Jia Huan would go to Zhao Mansion at this time.

It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Zhao Heng was arrested and imprisoned before it was too late for normal people to escape.

This little beast actually jumped in?

The look on Mrs. Wang's face changed. She actually felt that this might be a good opportunity.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but tell Zhou Rui's family: "Send someone to keep an eye on what Brother Huan did in the Zhao Mansion."

The one from Zhou Rui's family said: "Yes, madam."

……

After leaving Jia's Mansion, Jia Huan directly found a car and went straight to Zhao's Mansion.

In the past half year, he had been to Zhao Mansion countless times, and he was very familiar with it.Only this time, he felt so scared and anxious.

Not long after, the carriage arrived at the Zhao Mansion. There were actually guards guarding the gate of the Zhao Mansion.Fortunately the house was never closed down.

Jia Huan strode towards the Zhao Mansion, but was stopped by two guards from a distance.

"This is the prisoner's residence. No one can get close to it. You, why don't you get out of here!"

Jia Huan cupped his hands and said, "I am Jia Huan, the third master of the Jia family, and Duke Zhao of the Zhao family. I am my master. You two masters, do you know what crime my master has committed?"

After that, Jia Huan directly took ten taels of silver and stuffed it into the hands of one of the guards.

When they heard that Jia Huan was from the Jia family, the attitudes of the two officers changed drastically.

The Jia family is the official family of the country, and they can't afford to cause trouble there.

After Jia Huan handed over the money, a chrysanthemum smile appeared on the faces of the two guards.

"Master Jia San, it's like this. The Supreme Emperor is planning to build a palace. The Supreme Emperor reprimanded the Supreme Emperor in a memorial, and his words were very disrespectful. Therefore, he ordered the Jinyi Guards to arrest the Supreme Emperor and send him to prison."

Hearing the news, Jia Huan couldn't help but frowned.Master Zhao's name is Zhao Heng, his courtesy name is Fair, and he is proud and awe-inspiring. This is indeed what he can do.

But you have been dismissed from office now, and all the civil and military officials of the dynasty have not asked about it. Why do you need to take a trip into this muddy water?
And the things Master Zhao committed may be big or small.

If you are small, it won't be considered a bad thing, and it can even be said to be a good talk.

If it's serious, you may not be able to get out of the imperial prison.

Jia Huan wanted very much to rescue his master, but after much thought, he was unable to do anything.

After all, he was just a small scholar at this time.

Although he comes from the Jia family, it would be great if the Jia family could not hold him back, let alone help him.

Thinking of this, Jia Huan couldn't help but ask: "You two gentlemen, I wonder if my wife has been arrested?"

Officer A replied: "Master Jia, the higher ups only ordered the arrest of Master, and it has nothing to do with Mrs. Zhao. And our task is not to restrict Mrs. Zhao, but to prevent others from disturbing Mrs. Zhao's cultivation."

Jia Huan smiled slightly and was noncommittal.

If you didn't restrict my wife, why did you scold me when I came just now?
At present, with his ability, he is naturally powerless to save his master - but it is not completely impossible.

He still didn't know the backgrounds of his three classmates, and there was no telling whether they might be able to help.

What he has to do now is to protect his wife.

Thinking of this, Jia Huan couldn't help but ask the officer A: "You two officers, I want to go in and visit the master's wife. Is it okay?"

The two guards looked at each other and exchanged glances.

Then one of them nodded and said, "Of course it's okay, Mr. Jia, please."

Ok?
You were clearly pushing people away just now, so why are you letting them in now?
Could it be that they were only driving away irrelevant people and not preventing relatives from the Zhao family from visiting?
Faintly, Jia Huan always felt that something was wrong, but he didn't think much about it and quickly entered the house.

There were no servants or maids in the Zhao Mansion, only two servant ladies, one of whom was Sister Song, who was familiar with Jia Huan.

When Sister Song saw Jia Huan, she immediately stepped forward and cried: "Third Master, you are here. Go and see my wife quickly. My wife is ill and her condition is extremely bad."

When he heard that his wife was ill, Jia Huan became even more anxious.

He couldn't help but ask: "Master's wife is sick, why don't you ask a doctor to diagnose and treat her?"

Aunt Song said quickly: "Why didn't you invite me? It's just that the doctor heard that our master was arrested by the Jin Yiwei. Are they willing to come to our house? Even the carriage doesn't dare to come to our house."

Jia Huan had just arrived in a carriage - well, it was probably some carriage driver who didn't know about Zhao Heng's arrest.

If you look for a carriage nearby, you may not be able to find one.

Jia Huan quickly walked into his wife's bedroom and found his wife lying on the bed, with another woman waiting in front of the bed.

The master's wife looked extremely embarrassed, as if she had aged ten years in just half a day.

She placed a folded wet towel on her forehead.

"Master Wife, how are you?"

The master's wife slowly opened her eyes, glanced at Jia Huan, and said weakly: "Huan'er, are you here? How is your master? Is there still one life left? If your master leaves, I will follow him go together."

The master and his wife all had children who died in infancy. They were a couple who had a deep love for each other and supported each other for most of their lives.

Such changes suddenly occurred, and the master's wife was instantly defeated.

Jia Huan hurriedly said: "Master, I have inquired. The master will not interfere. He will only be detained for a few days and then he will be released. Today's Holy Lord is a holy king. Is there any reason to kill someone for his words? Master, you must do it. Get well soon, if master comes back and sees you like this, I don’t know how guilty he will be."
