The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 626
When Jia Min entered the room, he smelled the aroma of wine and vegetables.When I entered the east room, I saw a table on the kang, full of wine and vegetables.

A man is sitting at a table drinking.

This person was dressed in white, with a handsome appearance and a calm expression.

It was Song Kuan.

"Huaiyuan is here, why don't you come up and have a drink?"

Song Kuan pretended nothing had happened, with a smile on his face.It was like meeting a long-lost friend.

"Okay, I happen to be a little hungry, thank you Brother Song, I will not be polite."

Jia Min took off his shoes, went to the kang and sat cross-legged at the table, picked up the chopsticks.

"There are several jugs of wine here, one of which is poisonous, Huaiyuan can choose a jug to drink by himself."

"Okay."

Jia Min didn't look at it carefully, just picked up a pot, poured a glass, and drank it.

"Huaiyuan is not afraid that this jug is poisoned wine?"

Song Kuan looked at Jia Min and seemed a little surprised.

"Where is there any poisoned wine? Brother Song is not this kind of person, he doesn't bother to do that kind of rotten thing."

"Those who know me are Huaiyuan."

"Brother Song knows that I will seek revenge on you, why don't you go far away?"

Song Kuan's eyes flickered for a moment, and then returned to normal.

"The world is so big, where can I go? If it was a few years in the morning, maybe I would, like Huaiyuan, find a place like Beihai to settle down."

"My whole life, since I was born, I have been a hostage in the imperial capital, as a prisoner. I was a prisoner for the first half of my life, and I don't want to be a fugitive for the rest of my life."

The family members of San Francisco, except for the three county kings who can go to the southwestern fiefdom to perform their duties, the family members have always stayed in the imperial capital.

This is an unwritten rule that has been left since the establishment of the Dade Dynasty.

On the surface, it was to show the emperor's kindness, but in fact it was a hostage left in the imperial capital.

"I understand Brother Song's feelings, but I'm afraid it's more than that? Does Brother Song have anything to worry about?"

Jia Min was referring to Zhou Xuezhuang's matter.

These days, Wei Ruoshui has already investigated the relationship between Song Kuan and Zhou Xuezhuang.

Jia Min also sympathized with the relationship between Song Kuan and Zhou Xuezhuang.Even feel sad for them.

This is a somewhat poignant love story.

If it wasn't because Zhou Xuezhuang was the direct murderer of her sister Jia Yuanchun, Jia Min would have let Zhou Xuezhuang go.

"Since Huaiyuan already knows, I won't hide it from you. This is exactly what I asked you to do."

"Brother Song, if it's about Zhou Xue's make-up, don't open your mouth. My sister entered the palace in her teens. She was cautious, kept her own place, didn't fight for fame, didn't fight for power, and wholeheartedly served the emperor. You shouldn't start with my sister. She just an outsider."

"In the palace, in the imperial court, and in the world, no one can stay out of it."

"That's just your logic."

"I knew this would be the result, but I couldn't help but want to try it. Since you have given me the truth, I will give up. However, there are two other things, I hope Huaiyuan will be fulfilled."

"Brother Song, please tell me, if I can do it, I will never refuse."

"First, don't give Sister Xuezhuang to Chang'an, let her be buried with me. The cemetery has already been selected, and the housekeeper knows where it is."

"Okay, I promise you."

"The second thing is about my family members. I want to entrust them to you to take care of them."

"Entrust it to me? Brother Song, this is beyond common sense. Are you sure?"

"Now they have been detained, but if you want them back, Chang'an will give you face."

"Okay, I promise you, after people want to come back, I can send people to escort them back to Yunnan."

"I'm not going back to Yunnan."

"If you don't go back to Yunnan, where will you go?"

"Go to the North Sea."

He even asked his own women to go to Beihai?That's right.

We are life and death enemies.

"Brother Song, are you sure you want them to go to Beihai?"

"They are all female relatives, and they are family members of rebels. Will they have a good life in Dade? Beihai is different from Dade, and you are different from others. Therefore, it is safest to ask them to go to Beihai. But If Huaiyuan is afraid that they will take revenge on you in the future, then there is no need to agree."

"Hehe, Brother Song, you don't need to resort to violent tactics. Since you can safely entrust them to my care, I will agree. Bu Kui's [-] pairs of exiles are living well in Beihai, let alone your family members." .”

"Thank you, Huaiyuan."

"Brother Song's move really surprised me."

"I also learned this trick from Yuan Heng. When he was alive, he repeatedly suppressed you, but when he died, he betrothed Chang'an to you. Isn't it also surprising."

"To tell you the truth, Brother Song, I never expected this move."

"Well, things in the world are often unexpected. I thought that after overthrowing the previous dynasty, the world would be able to sit in peace. I didn't expect you to come out of Beihai."

"I thought that I could reap the benefits of the fisherman by contacting the Mogu people to deal with you, but I didn't expect you to defeat the Mogu people."

"I thought you would be the emperor, but I didn't expect you to give up the throne. Why do you not want to be the emperor? I'm curious."

"Being an emperor is too tiring, especially the emperor of Dade. I said that I am a lazy person and a person who likes simplicity. Do you believe me, Brother Song?"

"Others may not believe it, but I believe it, because I am also such a person. Unfortunately, we are not in the same camp. Otherwise, you and I will be invincible in the world together. If you are born Yu, why are you born bright? Well, sister Xuezhuang is in Xiangyun Temple Here, let's go."

Song Kuan drank the wine in the cup, got off the kang and put on his shoes.Unhurriedly opened the box, took out a porcelain bottle and a bottle of wine.

A group of people soon arrived at Xiangyun Temple.

"Just wait here, the teacher will come out later and tell you to collect the body for us."

As Song Kuan said, he took out another letter from his cuff.

"This is a letter from me to my mother and Zhuojing. If you give it to them, they will follow you."

"Brother Song, don't worry, you will live up to your trust."

"I believe in Huaiyuan."

After speaking, Song Kuan left without hesitation and never looked back.

About half an hour later, two nuns came out.

"Amitabha, Donor Song and Donor Zhou have passed away to the Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss."

"Thank you so much, Master. Butler, Wei Ruoshui, go collect the corpse. Butler, do you have money?"

"The son left money, enough."

"Bury them, Wei Ruoshui, you send some people to help. Butler, after the burial is over, you will be free to come and go. It is rare to be so loyal. If you are willing to go to Beihai with the eldest son's family, you can also go."

"Thank you Jia Tanhua, I will go to Beihai with my family."

"Jia Qiang, where are the Song family members?"

"It's still in the Song Mansion, and people from Luo Xingshan are guarding it."

"You take people there, and get them out. Just tell them what I said, and give them back some of the money and utensils of the Song family. Ni Er, you send a platoon to Tianjin Wei to transfer a ship to escort the Song family to Beihai. When we arrive in Beihai, go find Sun Yuanfei and settle down properly. I will write a letter to them later and bring it to them."

"Understood, Chief Min, I'll go right away."

Jia Qiang and Ni Er got on their horses and patted them off.

Wei Ruoshui and the housekeeper went in to collect the corpse, while Jia Min walked back slowly with his own soldiers.

Along the way, the scene where Song Kuan invited himself to Dajinmen for a drink when he went to Yeduju lived in front of his eyes from time to time.

For Song Kuan, Jia Min actually admired him very much.

This talent is full of talent, courage and insight, not only in the San Francisco, but also in the entire Dade Dynasty, and is also a leader of the younger generation.

With Song Kuan's financial resources and ingenuity, if he wants to escape, there are actually many opportunities.Even if he was hunted down afterwards, he might not be able to catch him.

He didn't leave, he was probably waiting for an opportunity to entrust his family to Jia Min, and then he died calmly.

Thinking of his love story with Zhou Xuezhuang and the final ending, Jia Min couldn't help feeling regretful and sentimental.

For more than 100 years, the relationship between the Daedeok Royal Family and San Francisco has always been in a delicate, sensitive, and complicated state.

The two sides are suspicious of each other, wary of each other, and fight openly and secretly.

The San Francisco rebellion this time is actually nothing more than the conflict between the two sides reaching a critical point. Dade has serious internal conflicts and self-destructed the Great Wall. San Francisco saw an opportunity, so they fought desperately.

In fact, it's not just the relationship between the royal family and San Francisco.

The relationship between the royal family and other aspects is also complicated.

Inside the royal family, in order to compete for imperial power, they often fight to the death.The scene of father and son turning against each other and brothers fighting against the wall has been staged more than once in the history of the Dadeok Dynasty.

It is not uncommon to see battles between the royal family and the civil servant group, the noble group, the foreign relative group, and the eunuch group.

Jia Min couldn't help thinking of the situation in Beihai.

At present, Beihai is still under development and construction, and all aspects of the dispatch of troops to China and Turkey have also shown one heart and one mind.

If Beihai stabilizes in the future, will it still be the same as it is now when it's time to share the results, especially when it comes to the next generation?
The founding emperor of the Dade Dynasty and the four kings and eight princes should have been of one heart and one mind, and shared weal and woe, so the Dade Dynasty was established.

But what happened now?
The only remaining of the four kings is the line of King Beijing. After several generations of emperors' weakening, they no longer have much power.

Except for the strength of the Jia family lineage, the other Qigongs have basically disappeared.

Even Jia's family has now moved to Beihai.

Although taking advantage of the present opportunity, you can come back.But is it really necessary to come back?
Such lessons and tragedies should not be staged in Beihai.

Jia Min felt that it was time for him to think carefully about the future of Beihai.

In today's Beihai, there is no obvious division of social classes, and a large number of migrants have not yet formed solidified interest groups.

People are so busy surviving and developing that they don't have more energy to fight and squabble.I still have a huge reputation and appeal in Beihai.

I am still young, I have just had two children, and I am still young, and it is not yet time for those women to compete.

If the child grows up in the future and issues such as inheritance rights are involved, things will not be as simple as they are now.

Now, it should be the best time to carry out reforms and establish the future pattern of Beihai.

Fortunately, I have the experience of my previous life, and Beihai has a more civilized foundation. What I want to do, I still have a good chance of success.
