The Rise of Ning Mansion in Red Mansions

Chapter 9 Optimus Prime falls

On the second day of March in the first year of Taikang in the Great Wei Dynasty, there was a big happy event to be held in Rongguo Mansion.

The Rongxi Hall, which is the main house, is quiet.

Although spring has begun at this time, the northern land is known to be cold in spring, and it is still very cold.

On this day, Jia's mother was in Lixiangyuan in the northeast corner, taking care of Jia Daishan in the hospital bed for half a day. Then she felt that her body was overwhelmed, cold and hungry.

So, she ordered Mrs. Wang to come to Lixiangyuan to attend to her illness, and she went back to Rongxi Hall to have lunch and take a nap on the soft floor of the outside pavilion.

Jia Daishan's injuries were caused by fighting on the battlefield. This time the attack was very violent. He had only been lying in bed for a few months and was about to die.

At this moment, Jia Daishan could neither get off the ground nor speak, and it was difficult to even open his eyelids. He relied on the old wild ginseng collected at home to hold his breath, and he might die at any time.

Fortunately, Jia Daishan has passed away, and has earned a hereditary title for his eldest son Jia She. He has also won the favor of Emperor Taikang, and earned the title of director of the Ministry of Industry for his second son Jia Zheng. He only needs to wait for Jia Daishan to extend his term, and Re Xiaoyi will If you pass, you can take up a post in the Camping and Repair Department.

The marriage of the eldest grandson Jiazhu will be held in the mansion today.

Jia Daishan has arranged everything for the descendants of Rong Guofu. There is nothing to regret in this life.

If there is any regret, it is that he is only fifty-eight years old. Why is God so unfair to let him die young!
What Jia Mu can do for him is to celebrate his beloved grandson's marriage, hoping that Jia Daishan can be strong and live for a few more years for his children and grandchildren, so that he can live up to his wife's fate.

However, good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes alone!

"Oh no!"

"It's not good, madam, the master is dead..."

Not long after Jia Mu left Lixiangyuan, Jia Daishan suddenly opened his eyes, and his dry old face turned rosy visibly.

Mrs. Wang, who was waiting in front of the hospital bed, was overjoyed and quickly wanted to send someone to inform Jia Mu that the blessing was really useful and that the master's condition had improved!

Before Mrs. Wang could make any move, Butler Lai stumbled in.

Seeing Jia Daishan go to the ground and walk around the house, it was as if he had seen a ghost, and his face turned pale. Nuonuo did not dare to speak and forgot the letter from Jia Dai.

Jia Daishan knew clearly in his heart how his body was, but it was just a flashback before his death.

At this moment, he had already put on his bullfight uniform under the service of his maid, and planned to go to the front yard to have a glass of grandson's wedding wine and say goodbye to all his old brothers.

Seeing Lai Da come in, he waved his hand and asked him what was going on.

Lai Da was stunned for a moment, and then took out a letter from his sleeve, which read the letter from Duke Rong Guo.

Jia Daishan took it, opened it and took a look, his face turned darker and darker. It turned out to be Jia Dai's own handwriting. He told how Jia Jing, Jia She, and Shi Tuo secretly released the deposed prince, and colluded with the Ming sect Zhu Xiaotian to attack and kill Emperor Taikang.
How Emperor Taikang was accidentally injured, Jia Dai wrote down one by one, asking Jia Daishan to make the decision on what to do.

What can we do?

Now, Emperor Taikang was hit by an arrow in the thigh and rolled down the hillside again. He was seriously injured and his life or death was uncertain. He was hidden in the central army tent in the Beijing camp for treatment by Jia Dai.

Jia Jing, Jia She, Shi Nao and others colluded with the deposed prince to rebel.

What can you do if you teach Jia Daishan a dying person?

How many times has he told the children of the Jia family, for a family like theirs, what does the succession of the throne have to do with their family?

As long as they serve the current emperor well, the Ningrong and Ningrong houses will be equally wealthy and glorious. Why should they take risks like a retiring son or a poor and rotten scholar?
The third generation is like this, and the fourth generation is like this too. Jia Daishan had a mouthful of old blood stuck in his throat and couldn't spit it out.
He covered his neck with his hands and tried to help, but was unable to do anything. The purple color slowly climbed up his thin old face, and Jia Daishan's pupils gradually dilated.

With a "bang", his body fell down on the wooden floor alone and helplessly like a fallen leaf, and stopped breathing.

Jia Daishan's "sudden" death caused everyone in the room to panic.

The scheming Mrs. Wang quietly put away the letter in Jia Daishan's hand.

On the one hand, he sent Lai Da to the East Mansion to inform Jia Daihua, on the other hand, he asked his personal maid Caixia to go to Jia's mother's room to deliver the letter, and on the other hand he asked Caiyun to go to the front yard to inform Jia Zheng.

Arriving at the outskirts of Rongxi Hall, Caixia ran and shouted, but was quickly stopped by Jin Yuanyang, who shouted in a low voice: "Caixia!"

Qingqing put her finger on her lips, shushed, and explained: "My wife just went to bed today. It was easy to get a good sleep, so please don't yell too loudly."

As he said this, Yuanyang took Caixia's hand and headed east to the corridor, "You don't know,"

"In the past month or so, in order to take care of the Duke, my wife has not had a good night's sleep."

"Today, I finally fell asleep. If there is nothing important with the Second Madam, I will leave it alone for now."

Just now, Yuanyang was waiting for Jia Mu to rest in Nuang Pavilion. He didn't listen carefully and saw someone shouting outside the door. He was afraid of disturbing Jia Mu's rest.
He quickly put down his beauty hammer and came out to see who was so bold.

Therefore, she did not know that what Caixia shouted was "The master is dead!"

Caixia felt a little unhappy when she was suddenly stopped, but she was a trusted maid by Jia Mu's side. She did not dare to be presumptuous. Her pink face turned crimson with anxiety, and she said in a tearful voice:

"Sister Yuanyang, it's not good, the master is dead..."
