Chapter 30: The World of Red Chamber Dream

  Dream of the Red Chamber World

  Suicide is not a good way to die, Yage has experienced it twice. Living too long is also not a good thing, he thought so for the first time. In his next task world, he needs to consider changing his cultivation method, otherwise... if he exceeds the task target again... he will have to kill himself again.

  He slowly opened his eyes, just about to call the flight attendant for a glass of mineral water, but was shocked by the scene in front of him and couldn't say a word.

  In the flickering candlelight, several exquisitely embroidered pouches hung from the stone-green bed curtains, and a faint, refreshing fragrance wafted through the air. The body was wrapped in silk quilts of the same color scheme, also adorned with intricate hand-embroidered floral patterns. This absolutely could not be the real world; Yage knew that without even thinking about it.

  "System, can you explain what's going on?" Rubbing her temples, Yage reluctantly contacted the system in her mind.

  When the host soul returned to the real world, it encountered a chaotic flow of time and space, and temporarily sent the host to this world.

  The error was caused by force majeure, and as compensation to the host, this world's storyline is being given away for free.

  Scanning startup... World confirmed.

  Dream of the Red Chamber

  Host identity confirmed, body memory transmission starting...

  Mission target scan... Mission target confirmed.

  Shi Qixia

  A string of electronic tones later, no matter how hard Ya Ge tried, the system didn't respond again.

  What else can Ah Ka do but smile wryly? He has no chance of fighting against the system now. It's just that he couldn't return to the real world to continue his mission, and he could only hope that the system would adjust the flow of time, or else before the plane landed, he wouldn't be able to return and would have to be sent to the hospital as a vegetable.

  Shaking her head, Yaguo carefully reviewed the plot and the memories of her physical body, the arc of bitter smile at the corner of her mouth deepened.

  He is a relatively good object to cross over, at least not Jia Zheng, Jia Baoyu or others of the same level. Should he feel lucky or painful about his mission target?

  The Red Mansion Dream is a song I've seen before, and now the system has given me a detailed plot, so I must plan carefully to avoid the tragic ending of the Jia family. Who made him become a member of the Jia family? The task object is Shi Qixia!

  Yahua's current body is the only son of Jia Yuan, the Duke of Rongguo, and his wife, Shi Qixia. At the beginning of the story of Dream of the Red Chamber, the Duke had already passed away. Shi Qixia was the matriarch of the Jia family, the wife of Jia Baoyu's father, and the daughter of General Shi, a nobleman from Jinling.

  To be honest, Ya Ge is now a bit unsure about how the system selects task objects. The first three task worlds were okay, whether it was a novel or a TV series, they were all female supporting characters, and they were still the kind of excellent but not very good supporting characters.

  Since the last ancient Egyptian world, he felt the system's evil intentions getting stronger and stronger.

  Although Isis is the queen of Egypt, she is indeed too extreme. Even if she had gone through the past and tried her best to change, she still can't let go. As a dignified queen and Egyptian empress, she always loves to be jealous and petty, although she has some political vision, when it comes to men and women's affairs, she will only make mistakes.

  It's been so many years, and Ya Ge's temperament has finally been ground out. He can hold back and complete the task. Finally waiting for Aisis to see her god go, he quickly cut off his pulse and left the task world.

  But his bad luck didn't end there. When he returned to the real world, something went wrong and he was sent by the system into Dream of the Red Chamber to do a task! The target of the task is still that muddle-headed Shi Taijun!

  From the plot, this old lady is very tasteful and capable, but in her later years, she only thinks about having children and grandchildren around her. Although she has noticed the decline of the Jia family, she no longer has the energy to do anything. But Ya Ge and many people have a feeling that the decline of the Jia family originated from this Shi Taijun.

  Shi Xiangyun is really incapable of raising children. Two sons, one was raised to be a lecherous and lustful person, the other was raised to be a hypocrite, leaving no one to inherit the Jia family estate. Jia Daisan was able to succeed his father Jia Yuan's Duke of Rongguo title not only because Jia Yuan had paved the way for him but also because he himself had the ability to gain the trust of the emperor. But by the time of Jia She, the title was reduced from duke to first-class general.

  Of course, the decline of Rongguo House cannot be blamed solely on Shi Qixia. Jia Daisan is also responsible. If it weren't for his indulgence, his two sons would not have been spoiled by their wives. Now that Ya Ge has become this incompetent Jia Daisan, he has a lot more to do.

  Jia Daisan is thirteen years old, and Shi Qixia is nine years old. Although it's rare for high-ranking girls to have their marriages arranged at this age, the union between the Jia and Shi families is inevitable. As Jia Yuan's only legitimate son, Jia Daisan is four years older than Shi Qixia, and if they don't arrange the marriage now, by the time Shi Qixia comes of age, Jia Daisan will already be due to take a wife and have children. By arranging the engagement now, it's just a matter of waiting until Shi Qixia reaches adulthood before she moves in with Jia Daisan, making him wait a few more years.

  It's better for Ya Ge, although he can't directly contact this "Shi Tai Jun", but he can always arrange people around her to influence her, so that she won't just focus on the backyard and become complacent after becoming an old lady from a young daughter-in-law.

  "Old master, it's time for you to get up." Just as Yage was still making preliminary plans, a maid of about fifteen or sixteen years old stood outside the bed curtains and said in a crisp voice.

  She lifted the bed curtain, Yajiao got out of bed, looked at the dark sky outside the window and couldn't help but sigh heavily in her heart. Although this Dream of Red Mansions is a fictional history, some rules are indeed related to the Qing Dynasty. As the Crown Prince's companion reader, he also had to enter the palace early.

  Reading at 4 am, starting class at 5 am, and finishing school at noon, this is the rule of Shangshu House.

  Don't you know that teenagers are in their growth spurt and need sufficient sleep?

  What time is it at 3 am? From 3 am to 5 am, it's the best sleep time for people!

  No matter how she muttered to herself, Yage still obediently put on her clothes with the help of the maid, had breakfast, and got into the carriage that the young servant had already prepared. Outside the carriage, it was deep in the night, and the black sky twinkled with stars.

  He pulled open the curtains to see a horse carriage not far away, and Yage finally felt a bit psychologically balanced. Fortunately, it wasn't just him, Jia Yuan Shang had to leave early every day to wait at the Wu Men gate. Thinking about it again, there were so many officials with the same schedule as him, he finally put his mind at ease.

  When in Rome, do as the Romans do. He can't be too unconventional. Think about this feudal era and think about those women, he is much luckier than them, at least he can still go out when he wants to. To live well in this world and complete his tasks well, he has a lot to do.

  Dealing with the Crown Prince is a long-term matter, and it can only be done gradually. Now the most important thing is that he must have truly entered the Crown Prince's eyes, and guaranteed that when he succeeds to the title, he will still be the Duke!

  The author has something to say: Ya Ge's wearing Jia Dai Shan was designed long ago, and Ya Ge must realize what the system is all about.

  As for the task object, it's just Sutai Jun for now, but he'll encounter even weirder task objects in the future!

  There is another one later.
