Shenjing City
As the courtiers left the palace one after another, the news that the bandits were disrupting Jiangnan also spread to Shenjing City. For a time, the entire Shenjing City was shrouded in a sense of surprise.
Donglu joined forces with sea pirates to disrupt the land south of the Yangtze River. These Donglu are really all-pervasive!
Because in the impression of the common people in Shenjing, the Donglu have made trouble in Jizhou in recent years, and the imperial court has been losing battles, and they will never reach the bustling and noisy south.
What surprised the officials of Shenjing even more was that the Zhenhai navy had been severely defeated when they encountered the Donglu, and the leading military commander Zhen Zhu was captured alive. Doesn't that mean that Jinling is in danger?
This was another incident that attracted the attention of the people of Shenjing after the Henan Rebellion.
Not long after that, no one knew who was spreading the news in Shenjing, Yongning Bo Jiaheng was stationed in Yangzhou, commanding the navy of the Jiangbei camp, and wanted to fight the Japanese invaders.
Prince Wei's Mansion
Wei Wang Chen Ran was sitting in the pavilion, and his uncle Song Jing was sitting on a small table across the side.
In addition, there is a middle-aged man in a blue shirt with a scribe's appearance. He has a quiet expression and is silent while drinking tea.
His name was Deng Wei, who was now the chief historian of the Wei Palace. He was a scribe recruited by Song Jing with the help of Chen Ran.
"Uncle, has he heard any news from Beijing?" Chen Ran asked, looking at Song Jing under his sharp eyebrows.
Song Jing nodded and said: "The Zhen family is finished this time. Not only did the fourth son of the Zhen family suffer a defeat, but he was also captured by the bandits. It was a disgrace. The emperor was furious and called him a fool in the court meeting. If he hadn't lived or died, I don’t know, I’m afraid I’ll be disappointed on the spot, but it won’t be long before the Zhen family will be implicated.”
Chen Ran's eyes flashed and he said: "Uncle, I heard that the old lady of the Zhen family is about to die, and my father hates the Zhen family deeply. When the old lady of Zhen leaves, I want to follow up on the salt affairs, that is, a thorough physical examination. Renyuan and the three major weaving bureaus, Jinling Tirenyuan will be vacant..."
Growing up in the palace, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Tirenyuan (the three major weaving bureaus) were both in lucrative positions. The Tirenyuan had previously controlled the Chonghua Palace and was regarded as a small independent treasury with the Jiangnan Salt Transport Department. .
Song Jing said: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will try my best to plan this matter." Chen Ran said: "Where is Brother Chu Wang?"
Song Jing put down the tea cup, shook his head and said, "The Zhen family is affected by this, but the Chu Prince's Palace may not be affected."
After hearing this, Chen Ran was silent for a moment and asked, "Uncle, what do you say?" Song Jing said, "Even if the Zhen family is raided and the property is confiscated, because of the Supreme Emperor and the presence of Princess Beijing and Princess Chu, the Zhen family will at most decline. , Unless it is found that Tirenyuan transfers a large amount of money to the Chu Palace every year, and has evil intentions, the Holy Emperor will be disgusted and secretly note the matter, but..." "But what?" Chen Ran asked with a focused gaze.
Song Jing did not answer, but looked at Deng Wei with piercing eyes and said, "However, if you want to find out some untoward things, one person is very important. Mr. Deng, who do you think this person is?"
"Uncle Yongning." Deng Wei put down the tea cup and spoke in an understated tone, "Uncle Yongning is the governor of Jinyi and a lucky minister of the emperor. If he can use it as a sword, the Zhen family will definitely be able to make the King of Chu fall into the water. However, This person’s thoughts are unpredictable and he will not do what we want.”
Chen Ran heard this and murmured: "Jia Ziyu."
At first, he originally thought that after Jia Ziyu returned from fighting the rebellion in Henan, he would be able to entrust him with the errands of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division. In the end... although it was also entrusted to him, it was different from what he imagined.
Perhaps, there is some truth to what the Queen Mother said. With Jia Ziyu's name on his side, Ziyu would be able to make decisions about anything in the future. To be honest, Jia Ziyu would be even closer to him after marrying Xian Ning.
Song Jing said: "However, as far as I know, the fourth son of the Zhen family has now caused such a big mistake, and Jia Ziyu will not help the Zhen family anymore. Moreover, the previous ordering of the Jiangnan camp was actually handled by the Liangjiang Governor's Office. This matter is quite strange. , I suspect that the Zhen family has spoiled Uncle Yongning and His Majesty’s plan to organize the army." Chen Ran hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Now that the bandits are attacking, Uncle Yongning will have to fight them back. If this is a big defeat... ..”
"Impossible." Song Jing and Deng Wei said almost in unison.
"It's okay to say he won't win. After all, he never claimed to be proficient in water warfare, but a big defeat shouldn't be a big deal. Now that things have happened, the prince is sure
Don’t underestimate Yongning Bo. "Deng Wei reminded.
Song Jing explained: "These newly-ennobled military heroes, if they are like wine bags and rice bags, would not have quickly stopped the chaos in Henan. If it is in the north, it is hard to say. Donglu's elite cavalry gallops on the grassland, but now it is impossible for Donglu to take a boat." There shouldn’t be many real Jurchens here in such a big way.”
Compared with Jiangnan, the two ministers of the Ministry of War and Shen Fang still have the mentality of "Jia Heng is defeated, then everyone will be equally bad".
In Shenjing City, even Yang Guochang has already formed a basic recognition because of the fake military reports before and after the First World War in Henan.
Jia Heng has something, but... not much.
There shouldn't be any big problems in this kind of war, and even if it doesn't work, at least it can remain unwinnable and undefeated.
Zhen Zhu, what kind of cat and dog is that? Relying on the nepotism of the Zhen family to become the general, it is normal for the navy to lose to the pirates and suffer a big defeat, but Yong Ningbo is at best in a disadvantageous situation and is in a stalemate.
But when the time comes, it does not prevent everyone from reading the joke. The advocacy of "Pinglu Ce" talks about advancing on land and water, but the result is that there is no way to fight on water.
At this moment, in Kunning Palace, Queen Song and Concubine Duanrong were entertaining the arriving Princess Jinyang and Li Chanyue, as well as Song Jing's wife Shen, and Song Jing's daughter Song Yan.
Because after the Mid-Autumn Festival the day before yesterday, it was the birthday of Queen Song. The palace was celebrating the birthday of the Lord of the Sixth Palace. The red silk ribbons on the palace had not been removed, so it looked quite festive.
Coincidentally, Queen Song's baby was born on August 16th, which was the second day after the Mid-Autumn Festival, while Qin Keqing's baby was born on August 14th, and they were married on August 15th.
A few days ago, several ministers in the palace successively delivered birth gifts to Queen Song.
Today, Empress Song is wearing a light yellow phoenix embroidered dress, sitting quietly, her dark green hair is styled in a heart-shaped bun, with pearl hairpins dotted between the buns. The pearls are beautiful, and her earlobes are Earrings, that graceful face, with curved eyebrows, as gorgeous as peaches and plums, unparalleled youth.
The emerald necklace on her beautiful neck shone brightly, the skin against which it was reflected was as white and greasy as a pear pistil, and the plump breasts under her double-breasted skirt looked like the fifteenth moon.
She is completely different from a woman who is thirty-six years old and has raised two sons. The years of gentle treatment seem to have left no other traces on this beauty except a few maternal charms.
Empress Song smiled sweetly, her face as beautiful as a peach pistil, looked at Li Chanyue, and said softly: "Chanyue, how are you and your sister doing with your dancing recently?"
The little princess was wearing a lotus-colored dress, with a bun on her head, and her eyebrows were a little shy under the air bangs. She said softly: "I just find time to learn. My aunt is a little busy these days, but she has already learned five or six kinds of dances. "
When Mr. Jia comes back, I think I will be able to see more.
"Xianning has been learning it since she was a child. She has learned a lot of music. If you don't know anything, you can ask her. Anyway, you two usually stay together longer." Concubine Duanrong looked at Li Chanyue with watery eyes and smiled. said.
From now on, the two of them will be like her and her sister, serving the same person, huh? This metaphor is inappropriate. In short, the two of them will be a lifelong matter.
Not far away, the eldest princess of Jinyang was dressed in a vermilion dress, with a moth bun on her temples, and a beautiful face. She held a tea cup in a slender jade hand, brought it to her lips, and took a sip, her eyes half smiling but not smiling. He looked at Concubine Duanrong.
Asking about Xianning? Do you want Chanyue to be a child with peace of mind in the future?
Princess Xianning said softly: "Queen Mother, Chanyue can dance very well now."
The two of them are going to be sisters for life, and Yuan is usually close to each other. Chanyue will need her to teach her a lot in the future.
Empress Song looked at Song Jing's wife, Shen, and her eyes fell on the pretty little girl in a pink skirt. She smiled and said, "Brothers and sisters, you can also let Yan'er learn dance from Xianning."
Song Yan is the niece of Empress Song. She is thirteen years old. Her eyebrows are like a crescent moon, her face is like a pear, and her skin is white and pink. Compared to Princess Xianning, Empress Song's aunt and niece, her facial lines and charm are more inherited from her biological daughter. The mother looked at the concubine's beautiful features.
Song Yan's appearance and facial features are somewhat similar to her aunt Queen Song's appearance in the boudoir, a youthful version of Queen Song.
Just as the clear sky is a dark shadow,
As the hairpin, Xiangling looks like Keqing in appearance and character, and Jiamu looks like Xiangyun (cross this out... In fact, this kind of charm is similar to one or two. Although it is rare, it is not impossible.
Mrs. Shen smiled and said, "Empress, our Yan'er is a little shy and may not be able to learn to dance."
Empress Song smiled and looked at the little girl who looked a little embarrassed, as if she saw her own shadow many years ago, and said softly: "When I was as old as her, I was quiet and shy. I'll just wait until I grow up."
Later, when the beauties entered the palace, the original eldest lady of the Song family was dead, and only Niu Colu was left... Well, they were Song Cairen, Song Concubine, and Song Empress.
Song Yan raised her head and cast her bright eyes at Empress Song like a clear spring. There was a hint of shyness on her beautiful face.
Empress Song turned to Princess Xianning and asked, "Speaking of which, Ziyu has been in Jiangnan for a while. Did he send any letters before the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
She knew that Xianning and Jia Ziyu had a close relationship, and they would have exchanged letters during the previous festivals.
Princess Xianning did not hesitate and said softly: "After returning to my mother, my husband sent a letter the day before yesterday, saying that he would send some specialties from southern provinces. They are still on the way."
Princess Jinyang chuckled and said, "What kind of local products are you sending? Is it food?"
Princess Xianning looked at the eldest princess Jinyang and thought to herself, it's not like her aunt didn't exist, so she just came to ask.
The eldest princess of Jinyang said: "Sister-in-law, there are delicious food in the southern province. I haven't eaten the salted duck in Jinling for a few years. Didn't the emperor's sister-in-law go to Jinling back then?"
Beauty also went to Jinling with Emperor Longzhi in her early years.
Empress Song smiled and said: "It's difficult for you to remember Jinyang. I remember that it was still the 25th year of Longzhi. My sister and I went to Jinling to work with my father, and later met His Majesty."
That year, she was eighteen years old.
In the misty rain in Jinling, which was like willow silk blowing in the wind, I swam on Xuanwu Lake with my sister, and then met His Majesty. His Majesty paid a private visit incognito at that time. It seemed that it was raining, and then we took a boat together.
Unexpectedly, it has been many years now. King Yong of that year became a rich and noble emperor, but the misty rain of Jinling back then seems to be gradually blurred in his memory.
As soon as you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea. At three o'clock that night, the quilt is slightly cold, and you can't sleep alone. The uncontrollable loneliness and resentment in your heart are like water plants, lingering in your body and mind.
The eldest princess of Jinyang did not expect that her casual words would evoke the complex emotions of sadness and loss in Queen Song's heart.
Princess Xianning glanced at Princess Yan Yiliu, who was sitting quietly and smiling at the side, and said softly: "Mother, in the past few days, Brother Wei Wang and his sister-in-law have been busy going to Daci'en Temple to drop incense and pray for blessings. I and I Chan Yue has nothing to do in the palace, so I want to go there together to pray for my mother and the Queen Mother."
After hearing this, Empress Song suppressed the trivial thoughts in her heart and turned to look at Yan Yiliu. She saw the girl in a light red dress quickly turned her eyes over and asked: "I heard your Majesty say earlier that your father is You should be back in Beijing in two days."
"Still on the road, just in these two days." Yan Yiliu said with a low eyebrow.
Nan'an County Prince Yan Ye and Baolinghou Shi Nai were inspecting the border in the northwest. After more than half a year, the border troops in several towns had been reorganized.
As for King Beijing, he was also recalled by Emperor Chongping with an edict and will return to the capital soon. Although he is quite unwilling to accept the experience of Datong, there is nothing he can do about it.
Empress Song said softly and comfortingly: "The Prince of Nan'an County is an important minister of the country. Now that he has successfully organized the army and returned with great honors, your father will also use him in the future."
The reason for the marriage with the Wang family of Nan'an County was to leverage their military power.
Yan Yiliu's voice became clearer and clearer, and he said, "The Yan family has received many favors from the emperor and is responsible for taking care of the country's worries."
Empress Song nodded, smiled and said, "If you think so, it is not in vain to marry Ran'er."
I originally thought that this daughter-in-law, who came from a family of military commanders, would be a bit strong in temperament, but now she seems to be gentle and quiet.
Yan Yiliu's head bowed slightly and she nodded in agreement.
But she sighed in her heart, this is the Tian family, she is the daughter-in-law after all, and compared to relatives such as Princess Xianning and Prince Qinghe, it is difficult for her to talk and laugh freely.
At this moment, the voices of the eunuch and the female officer came, saying: "Your Majesty has arrived."
Several people who were talking got up one after another and looked at Emperor Chongping who was surrounded by the inner prison.
Seeing that the emperor looked bad, Empress Song walked closer, with a look of concern on her face, and called out: "Your Majesty."
Concubine Duanrong, Mrs. Shen, and Princess Jinyang came to see the ceremony.
Princess Xianning and Yan Yiliu also came to salute and called out: "My son (daughter-in-law) has met my father."
Emperor Chongping said: "Let's all get down."
Xia Shouzhong, the eunuch in charge of the Sixth Palace, quickly brought over an embroidery pier with a wink and a flattering smile on his fair face: "Your Majesty, please."
Dai Quan glanced at Xia Shouzhong and sneered in his heart.
Emperor Chongping sat down and said in a low voice: "Ziyu just sent an urgent delivery. Something happened in Jiangnan. The navy encountered Jurchens and pirates, and most of them were damaged."
As soon as these words came out, Queen Song's face changed slightly, the handkerchief she held in her hand tightened, and she asked, "Your Majesty, how is Ziyu doing now?"
What? Did Ziyu suffer a defeat?
This is really......
Princess Jinyang held the teacup in her hand for a moment, and said softly: "Brother Imperial, Ziyu was not reporting earlier, but was rectifying the salt affairs in Yangzhou. The Jiangbei camp had just taken over, how could he be fighting with the bandits and these bandits? How did Kou get to Jiangnan?"
Because of the relationship between the young princess and Jia Heng, everyone just regarded her as the mother-in-law who was concerned about her son-in-law.
The other mother-in-law, Princess Duanrong, raised her cold and glamorous face under her willow-leaf slender eyebrows and looked steadily at Emperor Chongping.
he?
Princess Xianning also frowned and said softly: "Father, Mr.
Li Chanyue cast her starry eyes over, but Yan Yiliu had doubts on his face. Mrs. Shen hugged her daughter Song Yan and stared at Emperor Chongping.
Emperor Chongping said coldly: "This time it is the Jiangnan camp. Zhen Zhu, this idiot, was recommended by Shen Fang as the military governor of the Zhenhai Navy. He led nearly ten thousand naval forces, but was defeated by the Donglu, resulting in a large number of naval forces. If you fail, Ziyu will have to clean up his mess now!"
When Empress Song heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief. She thought just now... Zi Yu was defeated, what would Xian Ning do?
In fact, this is because Jia Heng's achievements are not yet rock solid and he cannot withstand a defeat. He has just become an uncle and can only be said to have just emerged.
Once defeated, the foundation will be shaken, and enemies lurking in all directions will bite like hungry wolves.
Even the Empress of Song Dynasty would think that Princess Xianning married a married man and also had a niece. Isn't it a little.........not well thought out.
To put it bluntly, what everyone is optimistic about is Jia Heng's potential and market valuation. He is already an earl at such a young age. He has made many meritorious deeds since he took the lead and has never failed.
Emperor Chongping looked at his daughter who looked concerned and said softly: "This time, Duduo, one of the eight banner lords of Donglu and the younger brother of the leader, contacted a group of desperadoes to invade Jiangkou. This time, Mr. Duduo This time, when Zi Yu was unprepared, he wanted to assassinate Zi Yu."
As soon as these words came out, Empress Song and Concubine Duanrong looked at each other, and they both saw surprise and suspicion in each other's eyes.
Prince Donglu came to assassinate?
When Princess Xianning heard this, her crystal jade face froze for a moment, and she asked in surprise: "Father, sir, was he assassinated by a gangster some time ago?"
Why didn't the gentleman mention this in his letter? Did it just happen recently? Or maybe he didn't want to worry her about it.
The eldest princess of Jinyang, Liu Ye, also had worries in her soft and beautiful eyes under her slender eyebrows. He did not mention this in the letter home to her.
"Ziyu said it was just a false alarm and nothing happened." Emperor Chongping said with a gentle face, and said coldly: "Now it seems that this Duduo is really my powerful enemy. He went to the south of the Yangtze River to contact those gangsters who were robbing families at sea. They are clearly trying to disrupt my Jiangnan agenda."
After everyone heard this, they felt relieved.
At this moment, an eunuch said: "Your Majesty, Yong Ningbo's memorial was urgently delivered six hundred miles ago, and the flying pigeon letter about the salt affairs was sent from Jinyi Mansion."
Previously, although Jia Heng used flying pigeons to convey messages to Shenjing, and reported news in a timely manner, detailed memorials often came only after the fact.
In fact, even if the letter is delivered by flying pigeons, because Jinling is too far away from Shenjing, it takes a little more than a day to return to Shenjing in Kaifeng, Henan, and it often takes two or three days.
Some time ago, Jia Heng recorded the latest progress of the Yangzhou Salt Service and the next steps in the plan, put it in a secret box, and reported it to Emperor Chongping.
The content is mainly about the arrest and investigation of the Cheng and Ma families. In addition, it also contains a memorial to impeach Yuan Jichong, the prefect of Yangzhou.
Several memorials were delivered in a non-stop rush after six hundred miles, and finally arrived in the capital.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongping hurriedly stretched out his hand and called: "Bring it here, let me take a look."
Dai Quan opened the wooden box, took out three memorials, and bowed to present them.
Emperor Chongping took the memorial and read it in detail for a while. His originally solemn expression gradually relaxed, and he gently closed the memorial. He looked at Empress Song, Concubine Duanrong and others under his thin brows, and said: "Lianghuai Salt Affairs There has been a breakthrough, and Ziyu will soon be able to clarify the clues and eliminate the long-standing shortcomings."
Now that some of the salt merchants have been arrested, the only thing left is to interrogate the two salt transport envoys to find out the deficiencies in the transportation warehouse.
After saying that, he called Dai Quan and ordered: "The cabinet has drafted a decree and sent it to Yuan Jichong, the prefect of Yangzhou. This official is greedy, cruel and cruel to the people. He will be dismissed from his post immediately and handed over to the supervisor for questioning."
Zhen Zhen agreed to one sentence, and whatever he said, he would accept everything.
Dai Quan quickly handed over his hand.
The eldest princess of Jinyang asked: "Brother, is there any breakthrough in the salt affairs over there in Yangzhou?"
"In order to make huge profits, the Ma family colluded with the Donglu and used sea ships to smuggle to Liaodong all the year round. Wasn't Ziyu assassinated by the king of Lu some time ago? There were those people who secretly communicated with the Donglu and spread the news, and Ziyu captured Ma After the family and others, the remnants of the Ma family were even more anxious and dared to hijack the Yangzhou Baihu Prison of the Jinyi Mansion as a dead man. Ziyu was in Jinling at that time. After hearing about this inquiry, he personally returned at night to provide support, so as not to let the criminals get away from him. Nü Gan succeeded in her plan, and then captured the Cheng family in one fell swoop. "Having said this, Emperor Chongping's eyes sparkled, and his heart was filled with excitement.
As for Empress Song and Concubine Duanrong, they both had surprise on their faces and were speechless for a long time.
The gangsters robbed the prison and returned at night... Why does this sound like a piece of drama?
Next to Shen, Song Yan also had a look of loss on her white and jade face. As Emperor Chongping narrated, she could not help but play out the scenes in her heart.
Princess Xianning's bright eyes shone brightly as she murmured: "Sir, how many dangers have you experienced in such a short period of time in Yangzhou?"
Li Chanyue Zangxing Yunyue's eyes also showed surprise. She turned her starry eyes to look at Princess Jinyang, only to see that her mother's face was filled with worry.
Listening to what Emperor Chongping said, the eldest princess of Jinyang clenched her handkerchief unconsciously, her beautiful eyes filled with autumn water, and she sighed quietly in her heart.
Compared to Li Chanyue and Princess Xianning, Jinyang's eyes had no brilliance, only distress and worry.
The son has traveled a thousand miles... No, it is the husband who has traveled a thousand miles and the wife is worried. Wherever you go, you have to go through life and death, and there is bloodshed.
Of course, this beauty knew that Jia Heng was not only a bloody man, but also a gunfire.
Carrying Concubine Qing while jostling around, playing Jenga, catching mandarin ducks, and bleating sheep... I'm afraid that this heartache will disappear in an instant, and I will curse you like a bitch.
Empress Song's snow-skinned jade face showed a strange color, and her pink lips were like two roses. She opened her eyes slightly and could vaguely see her cherry teeth, which were stunned and overflowing with fragrance. They shone with a crystal luster and said softly: "My son." Why did Yuta go through so many dangers in Yangzhou?"
Just listening to a few words is thrilling.
Emperor Chongping looked calm and said: "Zi Tong, he was sent by me, and he will definitely be noticed. Even if Prince Donglu does not assassinate him, he will still have to fight to the death with those people! Speaking of which, Duduo also has some courage as a prince. He actually went deep into our Han territory, assassinated our important military officials in a whimsical way, and now he is coercing pirates to invade our south of the Yangtze River, how vicious it is!"
Ziyu was a divine sword in the Han Dynasty. Even if the Zhenhai navy was defeated, Yangzhou had Ziyu in charge, and Jinling would also be defeated.
Nothing serious will happen.
The more he felt at this time, the less he could be like Henan who was so worried that he hurt his body.
Seeing Emperor Chongping's fierce words, Empress Song comforted her softly: "Your Majesty, since Ziyu is in Yangzhou, don't be too worried."
No matter how serious the situation is now, it cannot be difficult for Henan. At that time, when the emperor fainted, she felt that the sky was going to fall. That day...
Concubine Duanrong, Princess Xianning, and Princess Jinyang all persuaded her.
Yan Yiliu looked at this scene, his eyebrows slightly furrowed and his eyes slightly absent-minded.
My father loved Uncle Yong Ning so much. No wonder the prince always said that my father treated Jia Ziyu, his son-in-law, like a father and son.
In fact, it’s no wonder.
When she was getting married, something like that happened in Henan. The stubbornness and edge in the voice of the young man who insisted that the military report was false are still fresh in her memory.
I heard that my grandmother felt that she had lost a lot of dignity because of this incident, and she was very angry when she went back.
Emperor Chongping raised his eyes to look at the eldest princess of Jinyang who was not far away, and said: "Jinyang, Ziyu just mentioned in his memorial that he would implement a new salt law and coordinate the management of salt profits with the Ministry of Internal Affairs. You may need to go south. trip.
In the Kangxi Dynasty in parallel time and space, the salt inspector was an official from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It must be said that the Qing Dynasty knew that they could not trust the ethics of bureaucrats and gentry.
The eldest princess of Jinyang said softly: "When my sister returns, she will prepare a boat and go south to Yangzhou."
He is probably fighting in Jiangnan at the moment, and the day before yesterday was August 15th, but I couldn't reunite with him, and I missed him a little.
"There's still a war going on over there, so there's no rush. Besides, the personnel of the Salt Transport Department still need to be sorted out. It won't be too late after a while." Emperor Chongping said.
The eldest princess of Jinyang said softly: "Brother Emperor, it will take a month for my sister to sail and travel. When we arrive in the south of the Yangtze River, wouldn't it be just in time to get everything sorted out there?"
This statement made Emperor Chongping stunned. He nodded and said softly: "That seems to make sense, so that's fine."
As for Jia Heng's army being defeated and Jiangnan being corrupted?
Sorry, there is no such thing in the hearts of these brothers and sisters. At most, they are fighting against the pirates and spending a lot of effort to rebuild the navy. This is not a fight against the Jurchens in the north, but a battle involving the fate of the country.
Seeing this scene, Princess Xianning had a firm look on her clear and jade face and said, "Father, I will also go to Jiangnan with my aunt."
When Li Chanyue heard this, her starry eyes flashed slightly, she opened her mouth, and finally pursed her pink lips, swallowing back the words "Me too..." that came to her lips.
Anyway, since my mother is gone, she can just follow her.
It seems that when Mr. Jia wrote to his cousin and mother, he didn't even write a letter to her. Maybe he forgot about it.
Concubine Duanrong frowned and said with an unhappy expression, "Xianning, your aunt has something to do when she goes south, why are you going to join in the fun?"
The last time she went to Henan, she had been on tenterhooks for a while. Why did she go there again now?
Princess Xianning said softly: "Mother, I am not going to Jinling to go to the battlefield. Jinling is the old capital over there, so it doesn't matter."
Concubine Duanrong looked at her daughter whose beautiful features resembled her own, and the stubbornness in her beautiful face made her feel tired and even a little aggrieved.
It is true that my daughter has grown up and has forgotten her mother. She only has eyes for her lover.
Princess Xianning came forward and took Concubine Duanrong's hand, and whispered: "Concubine, I know martial arts, so I can protect her by following my aunt."
Jinyang: "???
Do you know martial arts? Or can you dance? Did you go there to seduce him? Seeing this, Empress Song advised her: "Sister, since Xianning wants to go, just let Xianning go and just send more guards."
Instead of stopping and watching, it would be better to let nature take its course. In fact, she was wondering if she could let Ran'er pass too.
After saying that, he looked at Emperor Chongping with his beautiful eyes like water, and asked: "Your Majesty, are all the intruders Jurchens?"
Emperor Chongping said: "No, Ziyu said that the Jurchens came with less than a thousand people. The rest were pirates who colluded with them."
Queen Song hesitated and said: "
I was thinking about letting Ran'er go and help his aunt? "
As soon as he said this, Emperor Chongping looked at Empress Song, thought for a while, and said: "King Wei just got married, so there is no need to go there yet.
When Empress Song heard this, she forced a smile and said, "I, my concubine, didn't think carefully."
But he sighed quietly in his heart.
