Chapter 687 Joy
Want to get some good luck?
After hearing what Jia Lian said, Sun Shaozong was speechless for a moment - could it be that he looked like Alexandre Dumas? Why did so many people come to him to borrow chickens to lay eggs?
Or is it that his mission after traveling to the world of Red Mansions is to spread his seeds throughout the world?
In this moment of distraction, Lin Hongyu took the opportunity to snuggle into his arms, twisting her body like a snake, making him feel uneasy.
Pah~
Sun Shaozong suddenly slammed the wine cup on the table and ordered, "Pour the wine for me and my second brother first."
Naturally, Lin Hongyu did not dare to refuse such a matter, and hurriedly stood up to fill both of their wine glasses.
Sun Shaozong took the opportunity to smile bitterly and said, "Second brother, using maids to entertain guests is not uncommon in the city, but you took the initiative to come to my house to share in the good fortune, isn't it a bit... a bit too much?"
"What is the relationship between our two families?"
Jia Lian smiled indifferently and said, "We are related for generations, and now we are in-laws. I avoid it with others, so how can I be so reserved with you?"
This is not a formality, and no one came to the door openly to ask for "share in the good fortune".
But since he doesn't take it seriously, there's no point dwelling on it.
Therefore, Sun Shaozong rolled his eyes and smiled bitterly: "Second brother is not shy, but how can I explain to my second sister-in-law? I'm afraid she won't tolerate this..."
“Hey!”
Before Sun Shaozong could finish his words, Jia Lian waved his hands repeatedly: "Why mention her at this time? It's really a bummer, it's really a bummer!"
Then he said firmly: "It is not her place to interfere in this important matter of carrying on the family line. Erlang should just be happy and ignore that yellow-faced woman!"
With Wang Xifeng's appearance and figure, she could not possibly be called a 'yellow-faced woman', right?
Furthermore, he just said something about the 'Hedong Lion' being more and more powerful, and now he is so shameless. Did he lie in the beginning or brag later?
Seeing that Sun Shaozong was silent, Jia Lian was afraid that this "good thing" would fail, so he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I will go back and tell that woman about it, and I will definitely send Ping'er to you."
This guy is really good at doing business. He sent Ping'er here and wanted to use Lin Hongyu to "earn" one back to make ends meet.
Sun Shaozong remained speechless, not knowing how to comment, when suddenly someone outside shouted, "Second Master, Second Master! Great news, Second Master!"
Finally I found a reason to resolve this embarrassing situation!
Sun Shaozong hurriedly stood up and went out to greet them, but before he reached the door, he saw Zhou Rui, the housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion, rushing in excitedly from outside.
It turned out that the person being called was Master Lian.
Sun Shaozong silently stepped aside, and Zhou Rui bowed and called him "Sir Sun". He turned around and was about to say something to Jia Lian, but Jia Lian asked, "Did the Second Mistress ask you to come to me?"
Although Zhou Rui saw that his face was not right, he still had a happy look on his face: "Second Master, you guessed wrong this time. It was actually the eldest master who asked me to call you back."
"Bullshit, you stinky dog fart!"
Jia Lian was immediately annoyed, and no longer bothered to hide his anger. He pinched an orchid in his hand, pointed at Zhou Rui and cursed: "Do you think Second Master is a fool? At this moment, who knows where the old master is having fun. How could he let you come to me?!"
As he said this, he was about to teach Zhou Rui a lesson.
Zhou Rui shrank back, no longer daring to show off his eloquence, and hurriedly said, "Second Master! Someone from the palace just came to announce the good news, and now everyone in the mansion has received a reward!"
"Since the Second Master is not in the capital, the ancestor has instructed the First Master to bring you and Master Bao to the palace to express gratitude tomorrow!"
"That's why the master sent me to call you back so that we can discuss the rules of thanking you."
"Good news?"
Jia Lian's mouth slowly opened and suddenly he jumped three feet high, shaking Zhou Rui excitedly and shouting, "My elder sister is pregnant? You mean my elder sister is pregnant?!"
Zhou Rui was dizzy from being shaken by him, but he did not dare to struggle , and he explained: "The Queen Mother felt unwell today, and the Emperor was personally serving her, and several ladies from Jingren Palace also went to visit her."
"As a result, when the Imperial Concubine arrived at the Imperial Concubine's place, she vomited violently when she smelled the medicine, so His Majesty asked the Imperial Physician to check the Imperial Concubine's pulse, and it turned out that she was pregnant!"
The more Jia Lian listened, the happier he became. He was even happier than if he had a son. But how could he care about anything else?
He hurriedly said goodbye to Sun Shaozong: "Erlang, it's really unfortunate today. I'm afraid I have to go back quickly."
"How can it be called a coincidence?"
Sun Shaozong laughed and said, "This is clearly a coincidence! I am also happy about this."
As he said this, he extended his hand and said, "Second brother, don't delay any longer. Go back and see if Uncle Shi has any instructions for you."
"Yes, yes, let's go!"
Jia Lian apologized to Sun Shaozong again, then hurriedly left the Sun Mansion with Lin Hongyu, Zhou Rui and others.
Sun Shaozong accompanied them all the way out of the mansion and watched several carriages disappear quickly around the corner of the street. The joy on his face gradually faded, turning into an indelible solemnity.
Jia Yuanchun suddenly became pregnant with a prince's child, which was absolutely great news for the emperor, the queen dowager, and the Jia family.
But for the prince, it would be a huge tragedy!
He has now lost his 'foundation' and is only supported by a 'dream of becoming a king'. But how can he bear the shattering of this only dream?
And how should you deal with yourself if you find yourself in the middle of it?
He hid in the street and thought carefully for a while, then suddenly laughed silently.
A few days ago, as soon as he opened his mouth, he forced the prince to kill the new eunuch, which made him have an illusion and subconsciously tied his future and life to the prince.
But in fact, if we talk about the relationship, aren't the Sun family and the Rongguo Mansion closer?
Because of their old friendship , in-laws, and the affection for Jia Baoyu, if Jia Yuanchun really gave birth to a prince, she would only regard the Sun family as a help.
In particular, Jia Baoyu has repeatedly expressed that his sister values the Sun brothers very much.
With this relationship, the Sun family can have the best of both worlds - as for the prince, Sun Shaozong has never thought of giving up. After all, the child has not been born yet, and it is still unclear whether it is a boy or a girl.
Moreover, the infant mortality rate is not low these days. Even if he is really the emperor's son, who can guarantee that he can grow up smoothly?
Therefore, before deciding the winner, it is better to bet on both sides first - at worst, you can play a double act with the cheap big brother. I don’t believe that the two brothers can’t handle the matter of pleasing both sides with their acting skills.
Of course, the specific operation method still needs to be discussed carefully, otherwise if the double act fails, it will become a disaster for both sides.
After making up his mind, Sun Shaozong returned home and told Zhao Zhongji about presiding over the funeral.
That's right.
I will also have to submit a badge to meet the emperor tomorrow. Would I be in the same group with people from Rongguo Mansion?
If this is really necessary, we must first go to the Prince's Mansion to give him a heads-up, to prevent the Prince from having wild thoughts and causing any trouble.
