In the attic——
Jia Heng smiled and raised his eyes to look at the beautiful and unparalleled beauty in palace clothes across from him. His eyes were somewhat sincere and he said, "If I hadn't heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess is elegant and magnanimous, Heng would not dare to take the risk."
When the eldest princess of Jinyang heard this, she chuckled, her lips curved like rose petals, and she thought to herself, she is really naughty.
But, well, it's quite useful.
It's not like the eldest princess has never heard of similar "flattering" words, but firstly, Jia Heng is a well-informed "national scholar", and secondly, he is also a young and cold-blooded person. At first glance, he is not the kind of person with a playful and smiling face.
"Mr. Xiao Jia, I can promise you, but... there is another condition. Well, I can't say conditions, that is, I am very interested in the history of the Three Kingdoms. You can come and talk about the history every five days." Jin Princess Yang said softly.
The young man in front of me clearly has unfinished meaning in what he just said. If he is a talented person, I will recommend him to Brother Dao Huang.
The reason why the eldest princess of Jinyang was favored by Emperor Chongping was that besides being a sister from the same mother, she could reconcile and bridge the gap between Emperor Chongping and the emperor and the empress dowager who were raised in the palace. The other one would recommend some talents to manage affairs. Emperor Chongping.
Emperor Chongping had a holy heart and was independent in his power. He was not worried about the eldest princess disrupting the government. Today, Chen Han has been baptized by the civil service politics of the previous Ming Dynasty, and the civil service group has grown into a force that can compete with the imperial power.
Therefore, Emperor Chongping was not worried about the eldest princess of Jinyang interfering in political affairs like Princess Li Tang, because in the context of civilian politics, the possibility had been minimized.
The eldest princess of Jinyang is not arrogant because of favors, she is very clean and self-sufficient, and there has never been any scandals such as raising animals with dirty faces.
Hearing this, Jia Heng's expression paused, he raised his eyes, looked at the beauty opposite, and said: "To be honest with you, Your Highness, I have been busy with trivial matters recently, so I may not have time to come here on time."
Lianxue on the side said in a low voice: "Your Highness, Mr. Jia is currently preparing for the second county examination."
The eldest princess of Jinyang paused slightly, her phoenix eyes sparkling under the willow leaves' slender eyebrows, and she said in surprise: "Second examination of the county government? Has Mr. Jia not entered school yet?"
Jia Heng's face remained as usual and he said: "To be honest with you, Your Highness, I was obsessed with martial arts and reading classics and history in the past few years, and I didn't pay much attention to the study of fashion. In addition, I was busy with trivial matters, and I never took out the time."
This is also how he found an excuse for the changes over the years. What happened to wielding swords and guns? You can read as well as you can dance with swords and guns, but you don't put your mind and energy into the eight-part essay.
A look of surprise appeared on Princess Jinyang's bright face, and she said: "Studying history? No wonder you have such a deep understanding, but you just practice martial arts?"
As he spoke, he looked at Jia Heng and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Mr. Jia still likes to wield swords and guns. Could he be a martial artist? It is said that the Jia family followed Taizu in the north and south with military merit. Isn’t it a noble title?”
This palace-dressed beauty is wearing a long red palace dress. She has a frown and a smile, her smokey eyes are charming, her beautiful eyes are looking forward to her, and her smile is as charming as a spring flower.
This is not intended to attract bees and butterflies, but the dignified manners of the court ladies who have been cultivated since childhood, and the grace and beauty of the Huaxin woman, combined to form Yanye and Dianxian, two temperaments that are completely natural.
Jia Heng said: "Now that the Eastern barbarians are raging in the north, Heng is still bitter and resentful. If given the opportunity, he is willing to serve the country and drive out the Tartar barbarians."
This topic was somewhat heavy, and the eldest princess of Jinyang also suppressed her smile and said: "It's difficult for Mr. Jia, a young man, to worry about side affairs. I am the eldest princess of the Han Dynasty, and I am enshrined by the country. If I were not a female streamer, I would not know how to fight. , will resolutely go to Northern Xinjiang to guard the country for the emperor."
Jia Heng praised: "Your Highness is very ambitious."
When the side affairs were mentioned, the atmosphere finally became dull. Princess Jinyang seemed to have lost interest in the conversation, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao Jia, let's just come here today. We will talk about the history of classics and commentaries another day. Please try to write the follow-up manuscript as soon as possible." Some of them, I’m still waiting to see them.”
Jia Heng nodded, stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, I'll take my leave."
It is not appropriate to say too much when we meet for the first time. Too much has been revealed today. The rest is left to the eldest princess to think about slowly. Maybe out of curiosity, someone will be sent to investigate him. According to his estimation, this is a high probability. event.
These noble people are like this. They only want to believe the information they have verified through several channels.
"Lianxue, please send Mr. Jia off for me." The eldest princess of Jinyang said with a calm expression and a sweet smile on her beautiful face.
Lianxue responded, stepped forward and said, "Master Jia, come with me."
Jia Heng thanked him and followed Lian Xue down to the attic.
After Jia Heng left, the eldest princess of Jinyang calmed down her inexplicable mood, picked up the tea cup on the side, and was still thinking about the young man's words just now. The reason why she did not continue to have guests was because she suddenly realized just now, He was actually whipped into words by a boy who was not yet 28 years old. He lost his mind and lost his composure.
This... we can't continue chatting anymore, we need to sort out and calm down.
The eldest princess of Jinyang was silent for a while, chuckled, and murmured: "It's been a long time since I met such a talented young man. What's interesting is that he is actually from the Jia family? Throughout history, he has the style of a national scholar. , in terms of poetry and literary talent, I guess from the perspective of the song "Linjiang Immortal", it should not be bad. It is a coincidence that such a character, in the early Han Dynasty, there was a young man named Jia... Poor Ye Midi I am just sitting in the front seat, not asking about the common people or the ghosts and gods."
As Princess Jinyang spoke, her eyes suddenly lit up and she murmured: "Jia Heng's age is similar to that of Chan Yue..."
Li Chanyue, the princess of Qinghe County, is only thirteen or fourteen years old. In a year or two, she will also be old enough to get engaged. However, none of the young talents in the capital can catch the eye of Princess Jinyang.
Of course, there is a saying that this is the eldest princess of Jinyang who usually associates with celebrities and is a descendant of relatives, so her vision is much higher without realizing it.
"Let's have another look..." Princess Jinyang thought like this. She held the teacup with her slender fingers and put it down. On her dignified and gorgeous jade face, a cold color covered her face. She was silent for a moment and said: "Xiahou, let your men Someone check this Jia Heng."
"Nuo." A woman wearing a mountain crown, a red Yunluo Feiyu costume, and a lancet hanging on her waist quietly walked out from the screen. She bowed to Princess Jinyang and then took the order and left.
When a high-ranking noble like Princess Jinyang meets outsiders, besides having maids to accompany her, how can she not leave someone to guard her?
The girl just now is named Xia Houying, and she is the bodyguard of Princess Jinyang. She also serves as the imperial guard and governor. This is Emperor Chongping's special grace for his sister.
Chen Han raised troops in the south and inherited the Ming Dynasty. He also established two divisions, the northern and southern divisions of Jinyiwei. The northern division secretly supervises all officials and was in charge of directly driving the guards, patrolling and arresting, and issuing edicts and prison sentences.
While the eldest princess of Jinyang was thinking, the voice of the nanny came from the eaves of the outer corridor, saying with a smile: "Your Highness, the princess has returned to the house."
Princess Jinyang smiled and said to the nanny on the side: "This child, I just said that someone would go to the palace to call her."
With that said, he got up and went down to the attic.
Princess Li Chanyue often came to the palace. Together with several young princesses and her cousin Princess Xianning, they were taught by the great Confucian scholars in the Wenhua Hall. They usually had homework arranged in the afternoon.
But he said that Jia Heng left the eldest princess's mansion and drove out of Anyefang in a carriage. Then at an intersection ahead, he got out of the car on the pretext of having something to do and asked Lianxue to drive back to recover.
The car in the eldest princess's house must not drive him into Ningrong Street, otherwise the Jia family will notice it, and it will be troublesome if Jia Zhen hears the news and goes dormant again.
Jia Heng got out of the car and looked up at the sky. The sun was setting and twilight was closing in. He planned to meet up with his cousin Dong Qian as promised before making further plans.
When we arrived at Dong Qian's house, it turned out that Dong Qian had returned home, and Cai Quan was talking and arguing in a low voice. He had obviously been waiting for a while. When he saw Jia Heng coming, they all stood up and greeted him. .
Dong Qian said: "Brother Heng, I just asked your sister-in-law to come to your house to find you. Why are you here now?"
"I went to meet a friend." Jia Heng did not go into detail about the eldest princess, but asked as he walked into the house: "Cousin, follow that Lai Sheng, do you have any clues?"
Dong Qian subconsciously lowered his voice and said: "They are at the Longfu Inn. I was afraid that they would be alert, so I didn't dare to go in. I just stayed until the afternoon and watched them coming and going from a distance. Four people came out before and after them. They were about the same size in size. They look like ferocious beasts, and they all look like guys."
