正文 164皇商
第一百六十四章
又过了几日,便是荣国府贾母的八旬之庆。薛蟠一家乃是亲戚好友,自然要去走访拜寿一番的。
当日,忠信侯府上下几口<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">穿戴整齐,坐着马车赶往宁荣二府。到了宁荣街处,男丁<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">宁国府门前下车,女眷<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">荣国府院儿内落轿,里头赫赫扬扬早就摆开了席面、戏台,觥筹交错,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">来<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">往,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">声鼎沸,气氛一时热络的了不得。
贾珍带着贾蓉迎到了门口处,将薛家父子往里相请,彼时四位异姓王爷以及好些公侯驸马<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">物俱已到了。瞧见薛家父子施施然登上堂的身影,立刻笑着过来寒暄。早到一步的林家父子也跟<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">贾珍后面,走了上来,刚要开口说话,就听一旁的南安郡王淡然笑道:“有一阵子没见,小侯爷过的是越发滋润了。只是不知<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还记得当年军中的那些将士否?<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">如今<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">京中享乐富贵,那些同营的将士却<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">战场厮杀。世事变迁,真叫<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">唏嘘不已。”
薛蟠有些狐疑的看了南安郡王一眼,闹不清他说这话用意何<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">。
“南安郡王这话严重了。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">本就是一个碌碌无为的纨绔子弟,仰仗着父辈的宠爱和圣上的青睐横行于世。这<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">京中本就不是秘闻。怎么南安郡王今日说来,这话里竟透着浓浓的酸意呢?”
南安郡王轻笑一声,摇头说道:“只是有些感慨罢了。几年不见,小侯爷无立寸功已然官居二品。然则多少豪杰壮士战场厮杀,拼进性命,却依然捞不到一个品级小官。果然是世道不古啊!”
众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">闻言,看向薛蟠的眼神立刻变得古怪起来。圣上亲封薛蟠为太子少傅,乃二品官衔。这已经不是秘密了。京中众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">羡慕者有之,嫉妒者有之,但向南安郡王这般直言出口的,倒也稀少。
薛蟠微微眯上了眼睛,打量南安郡王半日,假笑道:“王爷这话真叫<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">心寒。别的暂且不说,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">当年之所以能成功组建火炮营,花的可都是<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">薛蟠荷包里的钱。怎么一转眼的功夫,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">自己竟忘了?”
说着,薛蟠恶意的看了南安郡王一眼,意有所指的说道:“王爷这种行径真真叫<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">想起了章台街卖笑的粉头。他们也是没付钱的时候百般哄骗温柔,拿到了钱后立刻翻脸不认<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">。王爷变脸的速度,和这些粉头倒是有异曲同工之妙。”
南安郡王脸上温润的笑容一凝,深深看了薛蟠一眼,寒声笑道:“小侯爷依旧牙尖嘴利,好伶俐的口齿。”
薛蟠也回看了南安郡王一眼,鼻子哼了一声,皮笑肉不笑的说道:“南安郡王的脸皮也风采依旧啊!”
“哪里及得上小侯爷。”南安郡王针锋相对的回了一句,瞧见薛蟠还有出言讥讽的欲,望。立刻转移话题似的开口问道:“听闻小侯爷又弄出了一个工商杂税的名目,帮着朝廷收敛了不少税收。怪不得世<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">穿越小侯爷便是那点石成金的小财神。如今一见,果然厉害的紧啊!”
敢讽刺<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">巧立名目,欺压百姓?
薛蟠看了南安郡王一眼,眼中的锋锐呼之欲出。“王爷每年<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">西海沿子抵御蛮夷,就好像嫖客逛窑子一般进进出出,习惯成自然。却不想到打仗也是要钱的,朝廷若不是多想办法开源节流,您难道认为凭着您天生自带的一把‘枪’,就能将蛮夷击退,不再进犯<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">大雍国土?”
众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">听见薛蟠这一番色彩斐然的话,有些忍俊不禁的笑出声来。看着南安郡王的眼色也越发诡异了。
北静郡王摇了摇头。京中百姓皆知忠信侯府的薛蟠牙尖嘴利,说话荤素不忌。他以前还有些不以为然。今日一见,看来薛蟠的犀利并不是被世道抹平了,而是这么多年来,总是碰不上如南安郡王这般,叫他犀利起来的<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">。
想到这里,北静郡王勾了勾嘴角,上前一步,打断两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">硝烟弥漫的说话,开口笑道:“几年不见,小侯爷的言语却是愈发犀利了。倒让小王依稀想到了从前。若是不弃的话,大家寻个日子出来聚聚,好生喝上一番。”
顿了顿,又冲着薛蟠调笑道:“只是小侯爷的酒量不会还如从前一般——三杯就倒吧?”
薛蟠转头,看着面前玉树临风的北静王,勾了勾嘴角,笑道:“去哪儿,纸醉金迷可好?”
北静郡王刻意的看了一眼坐<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">一旁的林墨之,摇头说道:“不成不成,本王乃是正<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">君子,怎可去那样的地方?”
薛蟠和林墨之对视一眼,开口笑道:“没成想几年不见,王爷竟转了性子要当正<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">君子。难不成<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还想当个柳下惠不成?”
薛蟠说着,笑的贼兮兮的说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">可是听说了,北静王爷为了求娶林家妹妹,不惜将府中的姬妾全都遣散了。如今这订婚的日子也快到了,届时<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">可要和墨汁儿一起去<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">府上检查的。”
北静郡王看了南安郡王一眼,哈哈朗笑道:“随小侯爷的意。届时小王定然府门大开,恭迎小侯爷大驾光临。”
“不要现下说的好听,到时候<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">可要亲自去查的。”薛蟠说着,又冲着北静郡王旁边的东平郡王笑道:“甄姐姐最近可好?”
“自然是好,就是总念叨着<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">和宝玉两个。成日里和<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">说孩子大了,也不晓得探望探望姐姐,害得她想知道<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">们一点儿讯息,还得同旁<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">打听。”东平郡王说着,一边看向身旁的甄宝玉笑道:“看看<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">们哪日有功夫,去府上瞧瞧<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">姐姐。这么多年白疼<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">们了。”
甄宝玉笑嘻嘻的拱手讨饶道:“这不是朝廷的事情多嘛!”
“朝廷事情再多,圣上也给了<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">们沐休的日子。”东平郡王说着,伸手敲了甄宝玉一个爆栗。“不要用朝上的事儿推脱搪塞,难道<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还不晓得朝廷每日间都有什么事儿吗?”
甄宝玉捂着额头嘿嘿一笑。挤眉弄眼的朝着薛蟠做鬼脸。
薛蟠也回应了一个大大的笑容,又和堂上其余<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">等寒暄几句,这才和甄宝玉和林墨之两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">,起身往堂外走去。
金秋的白日天朗气清,风高云淡。薛蟠站<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">廊上,手里拿着一个顺手从席面上顺来的金桔,一边剥皮一边问着甄宝玉道:“有一阵子没见<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">了,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">最近忙什么呢?”
“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">一个翰林院撰笔,除了平日里起草一些文书圣旨,还能干什么?”甄宝玉耸了耸肩膀,开口说道:“反倒是<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">,最近忙的连个<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">影都不见。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">听说<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">这几日都住<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">宫里头了。圣上特地将养心殿的暖阁批给<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">住。可是真有此事?”
薛蟠点了点头,有些不自<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的说道:“还让<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">做太子少傅,每日里陪着两个豆丁玩闹。”
林墨之闻言,看了一眼面色微红的薛蟠,露出一个心照不宣的笑容。
甄宝玉看着薛蟠微微有些扭捏的模样,轻笑道:“这可是个美差。如今朝中大臣都<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">传言圣上有意培养两位皇子殿下,这个节骨眼儿上<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">能成为太子少傅,可见圣上之恩宠。”
说着,又一脸钦佩的看着一旁的林墨之,说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">更佩服的便是林家哥哥,以弱冠之年担任太子太傅之职。竟然还得到了朝中肱骨老臣的一致赞同。林家哥哥学识渊博之名,已经传遍朝野了。”
林墨之摇头轻笑道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">不过是一个小小的翰林学士,怎么能入他们的眼。他们都是看<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d"><img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">师父的面子上,不好编排<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的不是罢了。”
“林家哥哥太过谦虚,您三科状元的事迹早就传遍了大江南北,成为大雍朝所有读书<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的典范。现如今进学的学子谁没听过林墨之的大名?因此让林家哥哥做太子太傅,绝对是名符其实。”
林墨之摇了摇头,不再说话。
薛蟠将手中的橘子皮随手扔到了一旁摆放的花盆里,转移话题道:“对了,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d"><img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">翰林院做撰笔,可知道朝廷最近有什么动作吗?”
甄宝玉不以为然的摇了摇头,轻声说道:“每年都是这样,能有什么新动作。”
顿了顿,又开口说道:“倒是有一件和南安郡王相关的。圣上已经批准了南安郡王的请战折子,准备过两个月便让王爷回西海沿子统领海军呢!”
说到这里,甄宝玉又有些狐疑的问道:“真不知道南安郡王今日吃错了什么药,怎么会故意拦着<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">找茬。”
薛蟠心中轻笑,暗暗说道:“还能有什么缘故,自以为时机成熟,今非昔比,身份了不得了呗!”
只是这种话是断然不能和甄宝玉说的。因此薛蟠也只得故作茫然的摇了摇头,疑惑不解的说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">也不知道。”
林墨之看着薛蟠唱做俱佳的模样,又是忍不住的摇了摇头。却也开口迎合道:“这几年,蟠儿和南安郡王府一直没什么往来。谁知道这南安郡王是抽了什么风呢?”
甄宝玉信以为真,摇头叹息道:“总之,南安郡王手握军权,圣上如今非常的倚重他。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还是能避则避,别和他一般计较。”
说着,又语重心长的劝道:“好汉不吃眼前亏。”
薛蟠点了点头,表示知道。
甄宝玉又道:“不过薛伯伯如今负责大军粮草后勤的筹备工作。想那南安郡王也不会太为难<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的。等下个月南安郡王随军往西海沿子去了,也就不怕了。”
薛蟠心中对于南安郡王的举动一阵鄙视,面上却不动声色地说道:“又要打仗了?”
“可不是嘛!”甄宝玉叹息一声,有些烦躁的说道:“那些长的<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">不<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">鬼不鬼的老毛子,每年都得来西海沿子闹腾一回。倒也不是什么新鲜事儿了。”
“那倒也是。”薛蟠随口符合着,撩闲似的说道:“每年西海沿子都要打仗,每年打仗都派南安郡王去督战。依<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">看这南安郡王也不怎么样,要不然早将夷<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">打残打怕了,哪里还会像如今这么麻烦?”
一句话未尽,就听身后有<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">朗笑道:“小侯爷此言差矣。小王不敢苟同。”
薛蟠皱了皱眉,回头瞧着一脸闲惬的南安郡王说道:“南安郡王的家教便是背着别<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">听墙角,然后还随意插话?”
南安郡王哑然失笑,轻声说道:“小侯爷对本王偏见甚重。”
薛蟠冷哼一声,开口说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">已经说过很多次了。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">对<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">并不是偏见,而是成见。”
说到这里,薛蟠故作头疼的挠了挠头,一脸烦恼的说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">说<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">能不能不要老<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d"><img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">跟前晃悠。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">每次看到<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的脸就觉得心烦意乱,特别想揍<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">。”
“可是小侯爷绝不是本王的对手。”南安郡王学着薛蟠的样子耸了耸肩,口中的话越发欠揍。
薛蟠竖着眉头瞪了南安郡王一眼,拉着甄宝玉的手和林墨之一同往后院儿的方向走去。
今日府中有头有脸的女眷都去了荣国府招待客<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">,一时间宁国府这边倒显得有些冷清。八月金秋,菊花怒放。薛蟠和甄宝玉、林墨之三个随意寻了一处凉亭坐下,看着满目的菊花,神清气爽。

甄宝玉说着,一脸认真的打量着面前的薛蟠,开口叹息道:“过了这么多年,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">一点儿没变。”
薛蟠不满的挑了挑眉。开口反驳道:“如何会没有变化?<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">活<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">世,每分每秒都有变化,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">又怎么能例外呢?”

说着,伸手拽了拽薛蟠的耳朵,劝道:“有薛伯伯和圣上给<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">撑腰,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">如今越发不把别<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">放<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">眼中。那南安郡王手握军权,是何等<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">物,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">也敢这么不给他面子。当心他背后寻<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的事儿。”
“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">会怕他?”薛蟠不屑的撇了撇嘴,“不过是一个没本事当面说话,只懂得暗地里动手脚的异姓王爷罢了。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">当年刚进京那会儿不怕他,如今就更不会怕他。”
说着,薛蟠一脸傲娇的扬了扬头,哼道:“如今<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">父亲掌管大军后勤,粮草军备之事悉数<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">手。他若是敢惹<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">便缠着父亲不给他充足的粮草,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">看他怎么办?”
甄宝玉哑然,“越说越没个章程了。打仗是何等重大的事儿,岂容<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">小孩子过家家一般,想怎么样就怎么样?”

薛蟠漫不经心地摆了摆手,随口说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">也就这么一说,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还当真了。难道<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">以为南安郡王真敢惹<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">不成?”
两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">正说话间,宁国府的贾蓉匆匆走了过来,到达两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">跟前,躬身笑道:“给两位小叔叔请安。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">父亲说了,请两位小叔叔随着<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">等一起去荣国府给老太太叩头。”
薛蟠两个闻言,立刻起身跟<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">贾蓉后头往荣国府去。
众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">到了荣国府,发现一众小辈俱都到齐了。正一排排的给坐<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">上首的贾母叩头。贾母今天一脸笑容,连连称好。只除了目光时不时的往府外看去,神情有些心不<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">焉外,其余的都好。
薛蟠心中一黯,自然知晓贾母是想念贾宝玉了。可惜贾宝玉身<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">云南,倒也未必能赶得回来。
到了薛蟠两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的时候,两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">上前一步,并排站<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">贾母跟前三步之遥,躬身说道:“给老太太请安,祝老太太福如东海,寿比南山。”
贾母闻言,亲自起身将两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">扶起来,口中笑道:“好,好。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">们几个随意顽耍,千万不要拘谨才是。”
薛蟠三个低头应了。
就听旁边有<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">就是忠信侯府的薛蟠?”
口气中有股子说不出的敌意和厌恶。薛蟠哑然,抬头朝着那<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">望去。却见那<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">身穿制式王妃品级的宫装,头戴一直凤凰飞天金步摇,面容寡淡,神情高傲漠然。
贾母立刻说道:“这位乃是南安太妃。”
薛蟠恍然,毫不<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">意的拉着林墨之两个往堂下走去。
却见南安太妃不满的哼了一声,开口说道:“这就是忠信侯府的家教?果真是商户贱民,无理得很。”
薛蟠挑眉,冲着南安太妃骂道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">脑子有病吗?”
此言一出,四下皆惊。堂内众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">立刻目瞪口呆的看着薛蟠,不知言语。
南安太妃气的浑身打颤,指着薛蟠说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">好大的胆子,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">是什么身份,竟然和<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">如此说话……”

南安太妃闻言,恨的目眶欲裂,牙根发痒,强忍着怒气寒声说道:“果然是个没教养的。荣国府的老太太也算是<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的长辈。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">竟然跋扈至此,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">她的寿宴上撒泼使浑——”
薛蟠轻蔑的看了一眼面色铁青的南安太妃,撇嘴说道:“这话说的倒也正是。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">以为<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d"><img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">旁<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的寿宴上向<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">撒泼,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">便要给顾忌<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">三分,吃下个暗亏?<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">也不看看<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">有没有这个资本。自己不要脸,就休想赖别<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">不给<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">颜面。别说今日是老太太的寿宴,即便是皇太后的寿宴,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">要找打,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">也绝不会留<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">半刻。”

作者有话要说:要开始做文章了~~
大家有猜到后续滴吗????
难安究竟为毛要挑衅蟠桃咩??????
嘎嘎~~~~~~~~
又过了几日,便是荣国府贾母的八旬之庆。薛蟠一家乃是亲戚好友,自然要去走访拜寿一番的。
当日,忠信侯府上下几口<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">穿戴整齐,坐着马车赶往宁荣二府。到了宁荣街处,男丁<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">宁国府门前下车,女眷<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">荣国府院儿内落轿,里头赫赫扬扬早就摆开了席面、戏台,觥筹交错,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">来<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">往,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">声鼎沸,气氛一时热络的了不得。
贾珍带着贾蓉迎到了门口处,将薛家父子往里相请,彼时四位异姓王爷以及好些公侯驸马<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">物俱已到了。瞧见薛家父子施施然登上堂的身影,立刻笑着过来寒暄。早到一步的林家父子也跟<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">贾珍后面,走了上来,刚要开口说话,就听一旁的南安郡王淡然笑道:“有一阵子没见,小侯爷过的是越发滋润了。只是不知<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还记得当年军中的那些将士否?<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">如今<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">京中享乐富贵,那些同营的将士却<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">战场厮杀。世事变迁,真叫<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">唏嘘不已。”
薛蟠有些狐疑的看了南安郡王一眼,闹不清他说这话用意何<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">。
“南安郡王这话严重了。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">本就是一个碌碌无为的纨绔子弟,仰仗着父辈的宠爱和圣上的青睐横行于世。这<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">京中本就不是秘闻。怎么南安郡王今日说来,这话里竟透着浓浓的酸意呢?”
南安郡王轻笑一声,摇头说道:“只是有些感慨罢了。几年不见,小侯爷无立寸功已然官居二品。然则多少豪杰壮士战场厮杀,拼进性命,却依然捞不到一个品级小官。果然是世道不古啊!”
众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">闻言,看向薛蟠的眼神立刻变得古怪起来。圣上亲封薛蟠为太子少傅,乃二品官衔。这已经不是秘密了。京中众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">羡慕者有之,嫉妒者有之,但向南安郡王这般直言出口的,倒也稀少。
薛蟠微微眯上了眼睛,打量南安郡王半日,假笑道:“王爷这话真叫<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">心寒。别的暂且不说,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">当年之所以能成功组建火炮营,花的可都是<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">薛蟠荷包里的钱。怎么一转眼的功夫,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">自己竟忘了?”
说着,薛蟠恶意的看了南安郡王一眼,意有所指的说道:“王爷这种行径真真叫<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">想起了章台街卖笑的粉头。他们也是没付钱的时候百般哄骗温柔,拿到了钱后立刻翻脸不认<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">。王爷变脸的速度,和这些粉头倒是有异曲同工之妙。”
南安郡王脸上温润的笑容一凝,深深看了薛蟠一眼,寒声笑道:“小侯爷依旧牙尖嘴利,好伶俐的口齿。”
薛蟠也回看了南安郡王一眼,鼻子哼了一声,皮笑肉不笑的说道:“南安郡王的脸皮也风采依旧啊!”
“哪里及得上小侯爷。”南安郡王针锋相对的回了一句,瞧见薛蟠还有出言讥讽的欲,望。立刻转移话题似的开口问道:“听闻小侯爷又弄出了一个工商杂税的名目,帮着朝廷收敛了不少税收。怪不得世<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">穿越小侯爷便是那点石成金的小财神。如今一见,果然厉害的紧啊!”
敢讽刺<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">巧立名目,欺压百姓?
薛蟠看了南安郡王一眼,眼中的锋锐呼之欲出。“王爷每年<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">西海沿子抵御蛮夷,就好像嫖客逛窑子一般进进出出,习惯成自然。却不想到打仗也是要钱的,朝廷若不是多想办法开源节流,您难道认为凭着您天生自带的一把‘枪’,就能将蛮夷击退,不再进犯<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">大雍国土?”
众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">听见薛蟠这一番色彩斐然的话,有些忍俊不禁的笑出声来。看着南安郡王的眼色也越发诡异了。
北静郡王摇了摇头。京中百姓皆知忠信侯府的薛蟠牙尖嘴利,说话荤素不忌。他以前还有些不以为然。今日一见,看来薛蟠的犀利并不是被世道抹平了,而是这么多年来,总是碰不上如南安郡王这般,叫他犀利起来的<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">。
想到这里,北静郡王勾了勾嘴角,上前一步,打断两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">硝烟弥漫的说话,开口笑道:“几年不见,小侯爷的言语却是愈发犀利了。倒让小王依稀想到了从前。若是不弃的话,大家寻个日子出来聚聚,好生喝上一番。”
顿了顿,又冲着薛蟠调笑道:“只是小侯爷的酒量不会还如从前一般——三杯就倒吧?”
薛蟠转头,看着面前玉树临风的北静王,勾了勾嘴角,笑道:“去哪儿,纸醉金迷可好?”
北静郡王刻意的看了一眼坐<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">一旁的林墨之,摇头说道:“不成不成,本王乃是正<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">君子,怎可去那样的地方?”
薛蟠和林墨之对视一眼,开口笑道:“没成想几年不见,王爷竟转了性子要当正<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">君子。难不成<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还想当个柳下惠不成?”
薛蟠说着,笑的贼兮兮的说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">可是听说了,北静王爷为了求娶林家妹妹,不惜将府中的姬妾全都遣散了。如今这订婚的日子也快到了,届时<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">可要和墨汁儿一起去<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">府上检查的。”
北静郡王看了南安郡王一眼,哈哈朗笑道:“随小侯爷的意。届时小王定然府门大开,恭迎小侯爷大驾光临。”
“不要现下说的好听,到时候<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">可要亲自去查的。”薛蟠说着,又冲着北静郡王旁边的东平郡王笑道:“甄姐姐最近可好?”
“自然是好,就是总念叨着<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">和宝玉两个。成日里和<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">说孩子大了,也不晓得探望探望姐姐,害得她想知道<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">们一点儿讯息,还得同旁<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">打听。”东平郡王说着,一边看向身旁的甄宝玉笑道:“看看<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">们哪日有功夫,去府上瞧瞧<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">姐姐。这么多年白疼<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">们了。”
甄宝玉笑嘻嘻的拱手讨饶道:“这不是朝廷的事情多嘛!”
“朝廷事情再多,圣上也给了<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">们沐休的日子。”东平郡王说着,伸手敲了甄宝玉一个爆栗。“不要用朝上的事儿推脱搪塞,难道<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还不晓得朝廷每日间都有什么事儿吗?”
甄宝玉捂着额头嘿嘿一笑。挤眉弄眼的朝着薛蟠做鬼脸。
薛蟠也回应了一个大大的笑容,又和堂上其余<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">等寒暄几句,这才和甄宝玉和林墨之两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">,起身往堂外走去。
金秋的白日天朗气清,风高云淡。薛蟠站<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">廊上,手里拿着一个顺手从席面上顺来的金桔,一边剥皮一边问着甄宝玉道:“有一阵子没见<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">了,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">最近忙什么呢?”
“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">一个翰林院撰笔,除了平日里起草一些文书圣旨,还能干什么?”甄宝玉耸了耸肩膀,开口说道:“反倒是<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">,最近忙的连个<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">影都不见。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">听说<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">这几日都住<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">宫里头了。圣上特地将养心殿的暖阁批给<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">住。可是真有此事?”
薛蟠点了点头,有些不自<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的说道:“还让<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">做太子少傅,每日里陪着两个豆丁玩闹。”
林墨之闻言,看了一眼面色微红的薛蟠,露出一个心照不宣的笑容。
甄宝玉看着薛蟠微微有些扭捏的模样,轻笑道:“这可是个美差。如今朝中大臣都<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">传言圣上有意培养两位皇子殿下,这个节骨眼儿上<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">能成为太子少傅,可见圣上之恩宠。”
说着,又一脸钦佩的看着一旁的林墨之,说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">更佩服的便是林家哥哥,以弱冠之年担任太子太傅之职。竟然还得到了朝中肱骨老臣的一致赞同。林家哥哥学识渊博之名,已经传遍朝野了。”
林墨之摇头轻笑道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">不过是一个小小的翰林学士,怎么能入他们的眼。他们都是看<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d"><img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">师父的面子上,不好编排<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的不是罢了。”
“林家哥哥太过谦虚,您三科状元的事迹早就传遍了大江南北,成为大雍朝所有读书<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的典范。现如今进学的学子谁没听过林墨之的大名?因此让林家哥哥做太子太傅,绝对是名符其实。”
林墨之摇了摇头,不再说话。
薛蟠将手中的橘子皮随手扔到了一旁摆放的花盆里,转移话题道:“对了,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d"><img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">翰林院做撰笔,可知道朝廷最近有什么动作吗?”
甄宝玉不以为然的摇了摇头,轻声说道:“每年都是这样,能有什么新动作。”
顿了顿,又开口说道:“倒是有一件和南安郡王相关的。圣上已经批准了南安郡王的请战折子,准备过两个月便让王爷回西海沿子统领海军呢!”
说到这里,甄宝玉又有些狐疑的问道:“真不知道南安郡王今日吃错了什么药,怎么会故意拦着<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">找茬。”
薛蟠心中轻笑,暗暗说道:“还能有什么缘故,自以为时机成熟,今非昔比,身份了不得了呗!”
只是这种话是断然不能和甄宝玉说的。因此薛蟠也只得故作茫然的摇了摇头,疑惑不解的说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">也不知道。”
林墨之看着薛蟠唱做俱佳的模样,又是忍不住的摇了摇头。却也开口迎合道:“这几年,蟠儿和南安郡王府一直没什么往来。谁知道这南安郡王是抽了什么风呢?”
甄宝玉信以为真,摇头叹息道:“总之,南安郡王手握军权,圣上如今非常的倚重他。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还是能避则避,别和他一般计较。”
说着,又语重心长的劝道:“好汉不吃眼前亏。”
薛蟠点了点头,表示知道。
甄宝玉又道:“不过薛伯伯如今负责大军粮草后勤的筹备工作。想那南安郡王也不会太为难<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的。等下个月南安郡王随军往西海沿子去了,也就不怕了。”
薛蟠心中对于南安郡王的举动一阵鄙视,面上却不动声色地说道:“又要打仗了?”
“可不是嘛!”甄宝玉叹息一声,有些烦躁的说道:“那些长的<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">不<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">鬼不鬼的老毛子,每年都得来西海沿子闹腾一回。倒也不是什么新鲜事儿了。”
“那倒也是。”薛蟠随口符合着,撩闲似的说道:“每年西海沿子都要打仗,每年打仗都派南安郡王去督战。依<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">看这南安郡王也不怎么样,要不然早将夷<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">打残打怕了,哪里还会像如今这么麻烦?”
一句话未尽,就听身后有<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">朗笑道:“小侯爷此言差矣。小王不敢苟同。”
薛蟠皱了皱眉,回头瞧着一脸闲惬的南安郡王说道:“南安郡王的家教便是背着别<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">听墙角,然后还随意插话?”
南安郡王哑然失笑,轻声说道:“小侯爷对本王偏见甚重。”
薛蟠冷哼一声,开口说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">已经说过很多次了。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">对<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">并不是偏见,而是成见。”
说到这里,薛蟠故作头疼的挠了挠头,一脸烦恼的说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">说<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">能不能不要老<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d"><img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">跟前晃悠。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">每次看到<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的脸就觉得心烦意乱,特别想揍<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">。”
“可是小侯爷绝不是本王的对手。”南安郡王学着薛蟠的样子耸了耸肩,口中的话越发欠揍。
薛蟠竖着眉头瞪了南安郡王一眼,拉着甄宝玉的手和林墨之一同往后院儿的方向走去。
今日府中有头有脸的女眷都去了荣国府招待客<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">,一时间宁国府这边倒显得有些冷清。八月金秋,菊花怒放。薛蟠和甄宝玉、林墨之三个随意寻了一处凉亭坐下,看着满目的菊花,神清气爽。
“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还是不喜欢与<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">寒暄热闹,即便是参加别<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">家的宴席,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">也得偷懒跑出来。”甄宝玉有些怀念的摇头叹息,轻声说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还记得<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">们<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">金陵那会儿,每年家中摆宴席或者参加酒宴的时候,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">也像今日这般拉着<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">从大堂里头避出来。然后等到宴席差不多了,再回去。”
甄宝玉说着,一脸认真的打量着面前的薛蟠,开口叹息道:“过了这么多年,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">一点儿没变。”
薛蟠不满的挑了挑眉。开口反驳道:“如何会没有变化?<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">活<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">世,每分每秒都有变化,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">又怎么能例外呢?”
甄宝玉见状,忍不住的轻笑道:“是,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">变得愈发狂傲不羁了。”
说着,伸手拽了拽薛蟠的耳朵,劝道:“有薛伯伯和圣上给<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">撑腰,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">如今越发不把别<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">放<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">眼中。那南安郡王手握军权,是何等<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">物,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">也敢这么不给他面子。当心他背后寻<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的事儿。”
“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">会怕他?”薛蟠不屑的撇了撇嘴,“不过是一个没本事当面说话,只懂得暗地里动手脚的异姓王爷罢了。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">当年刚进京那会儿不怕他,如今就更不会怕他。”
说着,薛蟠一脸傲娇的扬了扬头,哼道:“如今<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">父亲掌管大军后勤,粮草军备之事悉数<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">手。他若是敢惹<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">便缠着父亲不给他充足的粮草,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">看他怎么办?”
甄宝玉哑然,“越说越没个章程了。打仗是何等重大的事儿,岂容<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">小孩子过家家一般,想怎么样就怎么样?”
说着,又忍不住啰嗦道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">可安分一些,千万别为了一己之私,让薛伯伯被世<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">咒骂。”
薛蟠漫不经心地摆了摆手,随口说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">也就这么一说,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还当真了。难道<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">以为南安郡王真敢惹<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">不成?”
两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">正说话间,宁国府的贾蓉匆匆走了过来,到达两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">跟前,躬身笑道:“给两位小叔叔请安。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">父亲说了,请两位小叔叔随着<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">等一起去荣国府给老太太叩头。”
薛蟠两个闻言,立刻起身跟<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">贾蓉后头往荣国府去。
众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">到了荣国府,发现一众小辈俱都到齐了。正一排排的给坐<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">上首的贾母叩头。贾母今天一脸笑容,连连称好。只除了目光时不时的往府外看去,神情有些心不<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">焉外,其余的都好。
薛蟠心中一黯,自然知晓贾母是想念贾宝玉了。可惜贾宝玉身<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">云南,倒也未必能赶得回来。
到了薛蟠两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的时候,两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">上前一步,并排站<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">贾母跟前三步之遥,躬身说道:“给老太太请安,祝老太太福如东海,寿比南山。”
贾母闻言,亲自起身将两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">扶起来,口中笑道:“好,好。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">们几个随意顽耍,千万不要拘谨才是。”
薛蟠三个低头应了。
就听旁边有<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">就是忠信侯府的薛蟠?”
口气中有股子说不出的敌意和厌恶。薛蟠哑然,抬头朝着那<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">望去。却见那<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">身穿制式王妃品级的宫装,头戴一直凤凰飞天金步摇,面容寡淡,神情高傲漠然。
贾母立刻说道:“这位乃是南安太妃。”
薛蟠恍然,毫不<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">意的拉着林墨之两个往堂下走去。
却见南安太妃不满的哼了一声,开口说道:“这就是忠信侯府的家教?果真是商户贱民,无理得很。”
薛蟠挑眉,冲着南安太妃骂道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">脑子有病吗?”
此言一出,四下皆惊。堂内众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">立刻目瞪口呆的看着薛蟠,不知言语。
南安太妃气的浑身打颤,指着薛蟠说道:“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">好大的胆子,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">是什么身份,竟然和<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">如此说话……”
“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">又以为<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">是个什么<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">物,就敢和<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">这么说话?”薛蟠不耐烦的挥了挥手,“不搭理<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">是看<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">年纪一大把,给<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">点儿面子。还真以为是<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">怕<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">了不成?况且要说没家教的话,不知道谁家教养出<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">这么个口出狂言但却一点儿礼数见识都没有的鄙陋之<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">。亏<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还算是堂堂的太妃,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">别<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">家的八旬寿宴上公然挑衅搅局,将皇家威严气度置于何处?果然血脉不同<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的素质也不同,即便是占个‘王太妃’的位子,除了狗仗<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">势,四处乱吠表达不满之外<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">还会干什么?”
南安太妃闻言,恨的目眶欲裂,牙根发痒,强忍着怒气寒声说道:“果然是个没教养的。荣国府的老太太也算是<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的长辈。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">竟然跋扈至此,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">她的寿宴上撒泼使浑——”
薛蟠轻蔑的看了一眼面色铁青的南安太妃,撇嘴说道:“这话说的倒也正是。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">以为<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d"><img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">旁<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">的寿宴上向<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">撒泼,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">便要给顾忌<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">三分,吃下个暗亏?<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">也不看看<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">有没有这个资本。自己不要脸,就休想赖别<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">不给<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">颜面。别说今日是老太太的寿宴,即便是皇太后的寿宴,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">要找打,<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">也绝不会留<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.com85ad79a18d">半刻。”
