Xihe Palace
As Jia Heng accepted the order and thanked him, the ministers in the entire palace, who had been listening with bated breath and silence, also turned their eyes away and looked at the majestic and heroic young man, with complicated expressions on their faces.
This is too young, too young!
Of course, the age issue is not enough for some officials to criticize. If he is young, then King Beijing is still a hereditary prince, and he was only in his early twenties when he succeeded to the throne.
However, the inherited kingship is naturally different from the title obtained through step-by-step fighting.
Therefore, Yang Guochang's worries seem to be reasonable.
Seeing this scene, Prince Nan'an sneered in his heart.
Secretly, the young champion died young, and the future is particularly unpredictable.
It's just a title, but it's still far from being a county king!
Emperor Chongping looked at Jia Heng below, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, and said, "Take a seat, Ziyu. The meritorious generals of the Southern Expedition. In the past two days, Ziyu has worked with the Military Aircraft Department and the Ministry of War to draw up a list of meritorious officers who should be knighted." You should be given a title, a reward that should be increased, and don’t treat meritorious ministers unfairly!"
Jia Heng quickly thanked him again before sitting down behind the case.
Then, all the officials in the palace took their seats one after another behind the case, and the celebration banquet had just begun.
Jia Heng sat down, his expression calm again, at least not complacent in the eyes of outsiders, and he talked in a low voice with Shi Jie, the Minister of Military and Aircraft beside him.
He looks like a little brother who is humble when facing a big horse.
Emperor Chongping said: "Zi Yu, that Jurchen captive chief harmed our soldiers and people. I would like to ask him, when the Jurchen surrendered to our court, why did he betray his trust and surrender and then rebel again?"
After saying that, he looked at Jia Heng and said, "Zi Yu, escort the Jurchen prince over. I want to personally investigate the crime."
The ministers below who were sitting down and about to pick up their chopsticks were stunned for a moment, their expressions changed slightly, and they looked at the middle-aged emperor.
Jia Heng stood up, put on a facelift and calmed down his expression, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I think today is a happy and auspicious day, so it is not appropriate to kill anyone."
Ministers: "???"
As soon as these words came out, all the officials in the court were shocked.
Not appropriate to kill? Where is this coming from?
After Jia Heng finished speaking, he sat down with his hands in his hands.
To rebuke the thieves and chiefs, you still need to plan carefully. Now that we have just returned to the capital, it would be better for the emperor to wait until the court meeting before doing the rebuke, and it would be best to launch it in front of the Jurchen envoys after the peace dispute. He was beheaded at the Meridian Gate and then used his head to comfort the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
Emperor Chongping looked at the young man with firm eyes, vaguely understood something, and said: "Zi Yu's words are reasonable. Today is a happy day, so it is not good to spoil the mood of the ministers."
Yang Guochang's face looked uncertain at the moment, his old eyes lowered to look at the swirling wine in the cup, thinking about Jia Heng's words.
This kid clearly wants to fight the Jurchen to the death and will never give up.
"Let's have the banquet first." Emperor Chongping pondered for a moment and then ordered.
Jia Heng and the ministers began to have lunch, and then some dancers in the palace performed songs and dances. The entire palace was immersed in a joyful and festive celebration atmosphere.
In Kunning Palace, it is warm, peaceful, and fragrant.
Empress Song was conversing with Concubine Duanrong and the arriving Shen family and Song Yan's mother and daughter. Next to her, Princess Wei Yan Yiliu was sitting with her.
"Empress, Her Royal Highness the Princess is back." Xia Shouzhong, the eunuch chief of the Sixth Palace, came in small steps, but his footsteps were light and silent, and he reported to Queen Song with joy on his face.
The Empress of the Song Dynasty couldn't hide the joy on her face as beautiful as a peach and plum. Her voice was like an oriole coming out of the valley, and she said with a chuckle: "Xianning is back?"
Mrs. Shen smiled and said, "Mother, it's time for Xianning to come back."
Song Yan also had a look of joy on her face. Is her cousin coming back from the south soon?
After a while, Princess Xianning and Princess Qinghe entered the palace, accompanied by palace maids and female officials. The girl was a graceful and quiet girl with cold eyebrows. She was dressed in a flying fish suit and a black cloak. She looked heroic. And next to her was Princess Qinghe. The main character is wearing a pink coat and skirt, a large cloak, and has beautiful eyebrows.
"Mother, concubine." Princess Xianning called from a distance as she looked at the graceful beauty with a temperament like orchids and chrysanthemums.
Empress Song came forward with a smile, took Princess Xianning's hand, looked at the girl, and said, "Xianning, you are finally back."
Concubine Duanrong saw her eldest daughter, who was tall and graceful, with a beautiful smile on her hibiscus face, and said, "I played around in the south, and she looks a little taller."
During this period of time, the Duanrong Imperial Concubine, who was thinking about her fairy mother, kept talking about her daughter. At this moment, when she looked at her daughter, she didn't see anything strange. She just felt that there was a tear mole in the corner of her eyes, and that kind of smell. The charming and charming charm seems...
Concubine Duanrong was shocked, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
Ziyu made such a great contribution and captured the Jurchen Prince alive. Even if the two of them really became husband and wife, there should be no changes in the marriage.
Yan Yiliu looked at Princess Xianning, his clear eyes under his eyebrows covered with a layer of thoughtfulness.
At this time, Li Chanyue also came to Concubine Duanrong and called: "Auntie."
Concubine Duanrong took Li Chanyue's hand, with a bit of affection in her eyes, rubbed the girl's cheek, and said softly: "Chanyue has grown taller than before she went to Jinling."
Mrs. Shen smiled at the side and said, "Chanyue has grown one year older after the new year."
Then he asked: "Why don't you see the eldest princess?"
Li Chanyue said softly and gently: "Mom still has things to deal with in Jinling. I probably won't come back to celebrate the New Year this year."
When Empress Song heard this, the smile on her beautiful face froze for a moment, her watery eyes moved slightly, and she thought to herself that she was probably dealing with the Zhen family's property. The Zhen family has been rich for generations, with a fortune of tens of millions. This is……
It's a pity that Jinyang is in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Empress Song complained about her sister-in-law in her heart, smiled with her face as beautiful as peony petals, and said softly: "I have to talk to the Queen Mother later. The Queen Mother is thinking about your mother."
Li Chanyue responded softly.
Empress Song turned to Princess Xianning and said softly: "Xianning, you and Chan Yue went to Jinling, which made your mother and concubine worried. I heard that there is a war in the south?"
Princess Xianning smiled sweetly and said: "We were in Jinling. My husband had already won the battle at that time, and later went to many places to play."
Empress Song nodded and said, "Zi Yu won a great victory. Your father has been happy about this for a long time."
Princess Xianning nodded slightly, and then said hello to Yan Yiliu on the side: "Sister-in-law Wang, why haven't you seen Brother Wang?"
Yan Yiliu smiled lightly and said, "He went outside the palace to greet Uncle Yong Ning. Didn't you see him in Xianning?"
"There were too many people just now, I didn't see Brother Wang." Princess Xianning said softly with a slight smile on her beautiful face.
Everyone was talking happily. At this time, an eunuch whispered a few words in front of Xia Shouzhong. Xia Shouzhong came closer, with a smile on his face and said: "Your Majesty, your Majesty has made Uncle Yongning a first-class marquis."
As soon as these words came out, everyone who was talking and laughing in Kunning Palace stopped. Immediately, Princess Xianning said: "Sir, has he been granted the title of Marquis?"
When Empress Song heard the words, she looked at Concubine Duanrong with a smile on her face, her beautiful eyes flickering, and said softly: "I think it's time to seal the title of Marquis. This time I went south and made such great contributions, Jurchen One of the princes was captured alive.”
As the emperor's pillow, no one understands the emperor's joy about the war in the South better than Empress Song. It is the kind of joy that can wake up from sleep with laughter.
Concubine Duanrong was also a little happy, and said softly: "Ziyu, this battle is not easy for him."
This beauty has regarded Jia Heng as her son-in-law.
As he said that, he looked at his daughter with his narrow phoenix eyes and asked, "Xianning, can you see how you fought in the war?"
"I didn't go to the front line with my husband, but my husband's two great naval battles were won by a small number, and there was no danger." Princess Xianning looked happy and said softly: "Later, the Jurchens and the navy came fiercely, and the husband used Hongyi's cannons wiped out the Jurchen and pirates in one fell swoop, and later captured the Jurchen prince on Chongming Sands. There are many things going on here."
Empress Song smiled and said: "I heard from your father that the Hongyi cannon has been sent to the Ordnance Supervision. I heard that it is very powerful, but it is better for Ziyu to lead the troops."
After everyone sat down, Empress Song ordered the female officials to pass around lunch.
Song Yan listened to everyone talking happily, her eyes were slightly absent-minded, and she didn't know how Brother Heng fought.
I heard from my mother that Brother Naheng will marry Sister Xianning in the future and he will be her cousin-in-law.
Not to mention how noisy the palace was, but the Jia family——
Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall
At this moment, when Jia Heng came to Beijing, the Jia family had already heard the news. At this moment, the Rongqing Hall was crowded. Jia's mother was sitting on an Arhat bed, and next to her were Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue and Mrs. Xing sitting on the embroidered pier to accompany them. .
With a kind smile on her face, Mother Jia said, "Girl Feng, go ask someone to find out when Brother Heng will return home."
The smile on Sister Feng's gorgeous face was like a charming spring flower, and she said: "Old ancestor, we have to go to the palace to see the Holy One first, and we have to be promoted to a noble rank and have a celebration banquet."
Mother Jia smiled and said, "I didn't know how to go to the palace, so I asked someone to squat at the entrance of the palace. When Brother Heng comes out of the palace, he can be taken to the mansion as soon as possible."
Aunt Xue also laughed and said jokingly: "I guess we will have to wait until it gets later when we get back. Then we can have dinner together."
"The letter said that Girl Bao and Girl Lin should be back this time." Mother Jia turned to look at Aunt Xue with a smile on her face.
Aunt Xue smiled and said: "Bao girl is going with the eldest princess and Princess Xianning this time, so we can learn more together."
Jia Mu nodded and said with a smile: "Bao Yatou is a good and obedient girl."
In fact, compared to the innocent Xiangyun, Jia Mu may not like Baochai more, and even likes Baoqin more than Baochai.
Mrs. Wang listened to the lively discussion in the hall. No smile lines appeared on her fair face, but she felt full of noise. She fiddled with the Buddhist beads in her hand and paused slightly.
But it was Sister Feng's gorgeous face that was filled with a smile, and she said: "Old Ancestor, people in Beijing are saying recently that Brother Heng has made a great contribution this time and should be granted the title of Marquis."
When Aunt Xue heard this, her heart skipped a beat and she looked at Sister Feng attentively.
Mrs. Wang's face was slightly condensed at this moment, the beads in her hands were turning white, and there was a deep feeling of powerlessness in her heart.
The master has been privately talking about the possibility of becoming a marquis these days, but how old is he?
He is only two or three years older than Baoyu...
Mother Jia smiled and said: "When I came back last summer, I was still a first-class uncle. Now I am a marquis. Brother Heng's title really stays the same for several months."
In fact, as Jia Heng gradually returned to Shenjing in the past few days, the matter was also being discussed in the mansion, and he was probably going to be granted a title.
Sister Feng smiled and said: "My ancestors don't even look at it. Brother Heng is doing some big things outside. Every time he goes through life and death."
As he spoke, he glanced at Mrs. Wang quietly.
My aunt only cares about the thieves eating meat, but doesn't see the thieves being beaten.
While they were talking, a nanny suddenly came in from outside and said to several people: "Old lady, the second master is back."
Originally, Baoyu was studying in the school. Mingyan heard that Jia Heng was coming back today. In addition, Daiyu, Baochai, Tanchun, Xiangyun and other sisters would go home. She reluctantly asked the school lecturer for a leave. Then he ran over in the middle of the afternoon.
When she saw Baoyu, Jia Mu opened her hands and said with a smile: "Baoyu, why are you back today? Come here quickly."
After not seeing him for several months, he was wearing red arrow sleeves and a fox fur cloak. The full moon face under the purple gold crown with tied hair was becoming more round and white.
During this period, Baoyu's life was actually not very good, because he was forced by Jia Zheng to go to the school in Chongwen Hall, and he lived a torturous life with lights on at three o'clock and chicken on five o'clock every day.
The two-day holiday after the five-day school was not as lively as before, because there were no girls in Rongguo Mansion, and there was only one Yingchun left. I usually went to Ning Mansion to find Miaoyu, play chess, and discuss Zen.
It was impossible for Baoyu to go and play with his sister-in-law Li Wan, so he just played with the maids in the mansion out of boredom.
Ping Yuanxi and other maids are among the best, and Ping'er wants to help Sister Feng manage the house. Yuanyang and Xiren have already gone south, and the other maids have followed their master.
Except for She Yue and Bihen, Baoyu can't play with silly elder sisters or girls.
And Baoyu has always liked the teachings of monks and Taoism. He originally wanted to find Miaoyu in Ningguo Mansion to talk about Zen, but Ningguo Mansion did not invite Baoyu very much, and it was not easy for Baoyu to go there.
At first glance, it might as well be in school.
Baoyu's face was like a full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival, with a happy smile on her face. She came close to Jia Mu and said, "I and Dao Lang have taken leave today. I heard that Brother Heng is returning to Beijing today. Where are they now? Sister Lin and Sister Bao. Haven't they come back yet? They've been gone for a few months and it's time to come back."
The past few months have been miserable. Who knows how he got here?
Jia Mu smiled and said, "I'll be back soon. It will probably only be a while."
And coincidentally, at this moment, Lin Zhixiao's family suddenly bypassed the screen and entered the Rongqing Hall. They could not hide the surprise in their voices and said: "Old lady, Miss Bao, Miss Lin, Miss Yun, Third Miss, and Zhu Da. Grandma’s aunt has brought two girls to Beijing, as well as two girls from the Zhen family.”
When Baoyu heard this, he was so happy (his eyes lit up) that he scratched his head and ears... Well, they are both stubborn, but not Brother Monkey.
When Aunt Xue heard that her daughter was back, she also stood up from the embroidered pier. Her fair and plump face was filled with joy and she said with a smile: "She's back."
At this moment, waves of maids were reporting from the front yard. Miss Bao came, Miss Lin came...
In short, it was passed down from layer to layer that the TV series Red Mansions gave Daiyu a sense of déjà vu as soon as she entered the Rongguo Mansion.
Jia Mu smiled and said, "The two girls from the Zhen family are here too? Girl Feng, let's go out to welcome them."
Everyone picked up the curtain hanging on the side room and came out of the house into the spacious and clean courtyard. Around the stone steps, groups of nuns wearing silk dresses and maids wearing aqua coats and skirts stood in the courtyard to serve. , with a smile on his face, but he didn’t dare to express his anger, he just greeted him with a smile.
Sister Feng, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue, and Li Wan supported Jia's mother, and slowly walked closer under the stars.
It was almost noon, and the winter sun was hanging over the courtyard. The sunlight reflected on the white snow covered with black tiles in all directions reflected bright light like grains of salt.
I saw a group of young and beautiful girls in bright clothes coming from the hanging flower screen wall under the three-door gate tower.
Baochai, Daiyu, Xiangyun, Tanchun and other four beauties of the Red Mansion, wearing fox fur cloaks of different colors such as light red, vermilion, light yellow, or light blue, accompanied by maids and nannies, Come over with smiles, which may be serene, shy, romantic, or bright... as if they are full of colorful flowers on a winter day when everything is withering and the atmosphere is grim.
Seeing this colorful scene, Jia Mu's eyes lit up even more. The flowers were red and the willows were green, so beautiful.
The old lady likes these young girls most, they are pleasing to the eye, youthful and beautiful.
In the past few months, not only Baoyu felt uncomfortable, but Jia Mu also felt that she was not happy anywhere. There was less chattering and noisy, and the days seemed like years.
But Mother Jia has some self-respect. She knows that Dongfu is lively, but she doesn't want to play Qin Keqing's cards all the time.
In addition, there was Baoqin, a plump-cheeked and plump figure, wearing a red cloak, with curiosity in his smart eyes, and two quiet and beautiful girls following Cao and You.
Zhen Lan and Zhen Xi are also wearing green skirts and red skirts. They are accompanied by the Zhen family's nanny and maid. Although the two youthful versions of Qingxue are not related to the Jia sisters, their bright and graceful appearance is not the same. Even if you lose nothing, you will still have the graceful and elegant spirit that grew up in the south of the Yangtze River.
At this moment, facing all the beautiful scenery, Baoyu was dumbfounded. As if his eyes were not enough, he glanced east and west, then cast a pair of crazy eyes on the faces of Zhen Lan and Zhen Xi, and then looked at them again. Look at Li Wen and Li Qi.
In fact, it can also be said to be the natural expression of Baoyu's love for beauty.
And this scene naturally fell into Daiyu's casual glance, and the bright starry eyes under Liuye's eyebrows flashed, secretly thinking, Brother Heng has never been like this.
"Yu'er." After Jia Mu looked at several little girls, her eyes finally fell on her granddaughter's face, and she said with a smile: "Yu'er, you are back."
"Grandma." Daiyu called softly, and then like a butterfly, she threw herself into Jia Mu's arms.
Mother Jia's call also awakened Baoyu from some mysterious feeling. He looked at the girl with her baby swallow in the forest, her eyes moved slightly, and she felt a sense of joy in her heart.
I don't know if it was his misunderstanding, but Sister Lin's features seemed to be brighter and more attractive than when she went to Jinling?
On the other side, Sister Feng saw Youshi in plain and elegant clothes, holding a handkerchief, approaching with a smile, and said hello affectionately: "I thought you were in Jinling and didn't come."
Sisters-in-law You and Sister Feng had a good relationship.
Now both of them have become widows, but one is a dead widow and the other is a living widow, but they are somewhat close to each other.
Youshi smiled lightly and said: "My mother and two younger sisters need to be taken care of here, and it is not good to stay in Jiangnan for too long."
Sister Feng nodded, with a bit of emotion in her beautiful eyes, and said, "Yes, the old lady here and the wife are looking after her, so it's good to have someone to take care of her."
Then, with her charming red phoenix eyes, she turned to look at Mrs. Cao and asked with a smile: "This aunt looks so good-natured."
With Sister Feng's sophistication, she naturally knew who this person was, but she was just asking intentionally.
Ms. Cao also had a fun-loving personality and chuckled, "It must be Girl Feng. I met her once when I was visiting relatives in Nan Province. Girl Feng is such a noble person who forgets things."
"Hey, look what Auntie said, I am a noble person." Sister Feng greeted with a smile and said, "This is Sister Wen and Sister Qi."
At this time, Mrs. Cao and Sister Feng were chatting, and Li Wan came over and called out: "Auntie, you are here."
I have seen Mrs. Cao in the boudoir. Even though Mrs. Cao grew up watching her, she is also familiar with the two girls Li Wen and Li Qi.
Mrs. Cao quickly pulled Li Wen and Li Qi and said with a smile: "Wen'er, Qi'er, I have met your eldest sister."
Li Wan looked at his two slim cousins. Wen Ning had a sweet smile on his face. There was a beaded flower hairpin between her beautiful temples. The beaded flowers were gently swaying. He said softly: "Last time we went to Nanzhou to get married. The two sisters were not this big yet, but they are both this tall now."
Li Wen and Li Qi sweetly called out, "I've met eldest sister."
Li Wan took the hands of the two little girls and said with a smile, "How are you at home? Are you okay?"
Li Wen, who was older, answered first, with a smile on his soft cheeks, and said, "Everything is fine at home, and my uncle is in good health."
Aunt Xue also held Baochai's soft little hand at this moment, looked at her daughter, then took Baoqin's hand, and said with a smile: "Girl Qin is here too, is it cold?"
Bao Qin smiled sweetly and said, "It's not cold. Brother Heng said he would take the boat with his father right behind him."
Aunt Xue said with a smile: "I heard from your father's letter that it's hard for you. I happened to meet Brother Heng in Guangdong, otherwise I might not be in trouble."
Bao Qin smiled innocently and said, "Yes, Brother Heng helped a lot."
Baochai stared at her mother at this moment, took Baoqin's soft little hand, and said softly: "Mom, it's not bad in Beijing."
"Okay, okay, everything is fine." Aunt Xue looked at her daughter, missing her deeply, but more importantly, she wanted to ask about her experience going south, and how was her relationship with Princess Xianning and Princess Qinghe?
At this moment, Jia Mu had spoken to Daiyu, then turned to look at Zhen Lan and Zhen Xi, and asked, "Are they Lan Yatou and Xi Yatou?"
In fact, Jia Heng already knew from the previous letters on the road that these were the two little girls of the Zhen family. They came to Beijing to seek refuge after something happened at home.
And one of them is Brother Heng's concubine.
"I've seen the old lady." Zhen Lan and Zhen Xi approached and called to the gray-haired and noble old woman opposite.
Zhen Lan looked at the old woman with white hair and kind eyes, and couldn't help but think of her grandmother, and the girl sighed quietly in her heart.
If grandma had not gone west, the Zhen family would not have suffered major changes one after another.
Zhen Xi, on the other hand, bowed Yingyingfu, curiosity visible in her clear, bright eyes as agile as a stream.
"Good boy, it's such a cold day, get up quickly." Mother Jia said, quickly reaching out to support her and looking at the two little girls. One has beautiful features and the other has a beautiful appearance. I really can't tell which one is Brother Heng. concubine.
At this moment, Yuanyang also left Daiyu, supported Jia Mu, and said, "Old lady, it's windy here, go inside and let's talk."
Jia Mu followed the sound and looked at Yuanyang. This former personal maid seemed to have become more beautiful. She smiled and said: "Yuanyang is thoughtful. Let's stop blowing the cool breeze in the yard and go inside to talk." Bar."
Sister Feng greeted the girls with a smile and said, "Come into the room to talk. It will be warmer in the room."
With that said, a large group of Yingying Yanyan and maidservants followed Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing and Aunt Xue into Rongqing Hall.
Fortunately, the Rongqing Hall is spacious and can accommodate twelve screens divided into different spaces. Now everyone can enter it, and it doesn't feel crowded.
The ground dragon was burning in the house, the heating was overflowing, and the incense was lit. Everyone sat on the embroidered piers, and Jia Mu took Daiyu's hand and sat on the Arhat bed, pulled Daiyu into her arms, and caressed Daiyu's breasts. Looking over his shoulder, he said: "Yu'er, can you see your father in Yangzhou?"
Daiyu said softly: "I see, my father is very busy with official duties, so he usually spends less time together and more time apart."
But her father and Brother Heng were much more affectionate than her, which was a bit strange.
Seeing this scene, Baoyu's eyes were a little hot, and she wanted to be held in the arms of Jia Mu and Daiyu like she did when she was a child, but she was also a little embarrassed in front of everyone.
At this moment, Jia Mu looked concerned and asked, "I heard from Brother Heng that you went to Gusu?"
Daiyu said softly: "I went to worship my mother with Brother Heng."
When Jia Mu heard this, her face paused, and she sighed and said, "It's time to go and take a look."
In this matter, Jia Heng did nothing wrong at all, but it was Jia's mother who had been a little negligent in recent years.
After talking to Daiyu for a while, he looked at Mr. Cao and the two girls and said with a smile, "My dear, how are you doing in Jinling?"
Ms. Cao smiled and said, "Go back to the old lady, everything is fine."
Mother Jia nodded, exchanged greetings with Mrs. Cao, and said with a smile: "Brother Lan is also thinking about Jinling. When Brother Lan is older, he will go to Jinling to visit."
Jia Mu exchanged greetings with Mr. Cao and then said to Zhen Lan and Zhen Xi, "I've heard about your grandma and grandma's affairs. Alas, things are unpredictable, but since I followed Brother Heng to the house, I can live here with peace of mind. .”
Zhen Lan Yingying bowed and said softly: "Thank you, old lady."
Zhen Xi also thanked her softly. Looking at the room full of hairpin skirts and coats, she thought to herself that Brother Heng's house is about the same as theirs.
Jia Mu exchanged greetings with each other, and then said: "Girl Feng, these girls are here, how do you think they will be arranged?"
Sister Feng said with a smile: "Since Lan Yatou and Xi Yatou came with Brother Heng, they will live in the East Mansion. Aunt Cao and Miss Wen will live in my sister-in-law's yard. After a while, the garden will be almost repaired. .”
Jia Mu nodded and said: "This arrangement is the best. I see that there are so many girls in the house, and there is no room for them. I saw the garden the day before yesterday. It is good to live there. When spring comes next year, the flowers will bloom, so let's live there." Baoyu and his sisters lived there, reading and learning calligraphy."
When Baoyu heard this, he was even more happy.
Sister Feng smiled, but did not answer the question, but she was thinking that the old lady still had some wishful thinking.
At the beginning, Brother Heng said that the girl came to live there, and also gave out space and money to the Ning Mansion. It was definitely not for Baoyu to cultivate.
Moreover, the master is not willing. Baoyu wants to live in the school of Chongwen Hall and study hard.
After speaking, Mother Jia no longer mentioned the garden. She looked at Mrs. Cao, Li Wen and Li Qi with a smile and said, "You three live in the house. Our family doesn't have such big rules. Two girls They are all treated like the mistress."
Ms. Cao chuckled, nodded, and said, "That's a trouble for the old lady."
In fact, she wanted to take Wen'er and Qier to live in Dongfu. According to Youshi, things in Dongfu were simpler.
"We are all close relatives, nothing to do with outsiders." Mother Jia said with a kind smile on her face.
Regarding Li Wan's observance of integrity for her grandson, Jia's mother always praised Li Wan. She even felt sorry for Li Wan who had his great-grandson Jia Lan, so she allocated money from her monthly salary to Li Wan for daily expenses.
Mother Jia thought for a while, then told Sister Feng, "Don't neglect these girls' monthly payments. We will allocate them elsewhere. I know your pockets are full."
The following words were a bit joking, Aunt Xue said with a smile: "Girl Feng is really great now. When she does business with Brother Heng, she has a lot of leaks on her fingers."
Listening to Aunt Xue's words, Ping'er's face turned red, and her heart skipped a beat. Grandma had a lot of leakage between her fingers because of Uncle Heng's square handkerchief.
Mrs. Xing smiled softly at the side, with a look of thoughtfulness on her fair face.
After Brother Heng comes back, the matter of Xiuyan's niece should also be settled. I heard that she will be made a marquis this time.
Sister Feng said with a smile: "Oh, my ancestors, do you know that I have just built a garden and are fighting famine everywhere. I am worried that I have no place to beg for alms."
Jia Mu smiled and said: "You monkey, don't cry out to me about poverty here. You and Brother Heng are doing business, and you are making more money every day."
Everyone in Rongqing Hall laughed, and Rongqing Hall was filled with happy air for a while.
Baoyu's Mid-Autumn Festival face also showed two dimples. He still liked this atmosphere.
Alas, Brother Heng brought people to the south before.
He was busy with his own business, why did he go south with so many people?
Daiyu also held a handkerchief and smiled with her lips pursed, her starry eyes twinkling under her smoky eyebrows. It seemed that the liveliness was indeed livelier here in Rongqing Hall.
But...she belongs to Dongfu after all.
Mrs. Wang took the tea cup from the jade bracelet on the side, took a sip, and temporarily suppressed the irritability in her heart. She looked at Tanchun sitting next to her and asked softly: "Third girl, are you older?" Why didn’t my sister come back?”
Tan Chun said softly: "The eldest sister is a very capable person by the eldest princess' side. The eldest princess can't live without her for a while."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang had a look of surprise on her face, her voice raised slightly an octave, and asked: "Why can't the eldest princess stay away from your eldest sister?"
If the eldest girl follows the eldest princess, she will have a relationship with the Huang nobles in the future, and it is also possible to marry into the clan again.
As time passed, especially since Yuanchun's marriage had not been settled by the end of this year, Mrs. Wang became more and more resentful about someone's obstruction of the marriage by the King of Chu and Jiang Kening.
Yuanchun is already turning into an old girl...
What's even more difficult to deal with is that Yuanchun often wants to become a monk and break up the marriage, which can cost Mrs. Wang her life.
Over there, Jia Mu also heard the conversation between Mrs. Wang and Tan Chun. She looked at Tan Chun with a smile and said, "Third girl, how come the eldest princess can't live without the eldest girl?"
Yuanchun was actually heartbroken by Jia Mu. Even though she was such an old girl, she was still unmarried.
Aunt Xue also looked at the girl with beautiful features at this moment, secretly curious in her heart.
How could the eldest girl gain such respect from the eldest princess when she saw that her life-long event was being delayed? Is it possible to marry into the clan again?
Tanchun said: "As for the errands of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the eldest princess is entrusted to the eldest sister. She is in charge of many businesses, and the eldest sister is also a fourth-grade talent now. The eldest princess cannot leave the big sister for a moment. My sister’s.”
They were indeed inseparable for a moment, and Yuanchun helped push Jia Heng when he was tired.
Hearing this, Jia Mu nodded and said, "That's fine."
Baochai sighed quietly in his heart as he listened to the conversation of several people.
It's really a pity for the eldest sister. She remembered that when she was in Aurous Hill, she had persuaded her and Yan'er to have such a graceful and gentle temperament, but now she has no whereabouts for life.
The girl would never have thought that her husband was also someone else's trustworthy tree, and that she was singing Rene Liu's song between the curtains of the bed... So you are here too?
Aunt Xue changed the subject with a smile and said, "It's already noon, Brother Heng hasn't come back yet?"
Jia Mu smiled and said, "I guess there will be a banquet in the palace now. Let's have lunch first without waiting for him."
With that said, he ordered Lin Zhixiao's family to prepare lunch.
In the Rongqing Hall, everyone was laughing and chatting. After lunch, everyone sat together to drink tea and talk.
Suddenly, Lin Zhixiao's voice came from outside, saying: "Old lady, madam, the second master is back."
Jia Mu was overjoyed when she heard this and said quickly: "Zheng'er is back, where is Brother Heng?"
"The second master said that he was left alone in the palace to talk." Lin Zhixiao's family member said with a smile.
And just when everyone in the hall had different thoughts, Jia Zheng also came from the front yard to the Rongqing Hall in the back house.
"Mother." Jia Zheng bowed to Jia's mother sitting on the Arhat bed with a respectful attitude.
Jia Mu asked, "How's it going? Where's Brother Heng?"
In fact, he was asking about Jia Heng's knighthood, but he couldn't be too blunt or eager about this matter.
Jia Zheng's cheeks flushed, and he said with excitement: "Mother, the Holy Emperor has been so gracious that he made Zi Yu a first-class marquis. After the luncheon, the Holy Emperor summoned Zi Yu to play a solo."
Everyone: "..."
Immediately, it was like a joyful warm wind blowing through the entire Rongqing Hall, making Jin Chai and the woman in the hall look happy.
"Wait a minute, OK! OK!!!" Jia Mu said happily, saying hello repeatedly, feeling enveloped in ecstasy.
Aunt Xue also narrowed her eyes and felt a little shocked. Even though she had expected to be granted a title of marquis, she was still a little shocked to be promoted to a first-class marquis all of a sudden.
How old is Brother Heng?
She's not even a year older than her Jiabao girl, so how can she be so outstanding? This has been waiting for a while!
At this moment, Baochai was holding the handkerchief, her moist apricot eyes were slightly absent-minded, and her heart was filled with surprises, it turned out to be a waiter!
After becoming a marquis, no matter how meritorious he is, he will become a duke, and the county king does not seem to be out of reach.
And Ying'er, who was behind Baochai, couldn't suppress the joy on her face. She looked at her girl with pride in her heart.
She took a peek that day and saw that the uncle and the girl were sleeping in the same bed, hugging each other and doing those husband-and-wife things. It is said that husband and wife share the same heart and share weal and woe.
Not only the master and servant of the Xue family were inexplicably happy about this, but at this moment, Sister Feng's heart was trembling, her jade face was slightly flushed, and under the curved willow-leaf eyebrows, the clear waves in the red and phoenix eyes were slightly trance-like, just like the waves in the lake in her heart.
Brother Heng is indeed a rare and extraordinary man in the world. Back then, he looked like a stranger in the Rongqing Hall. Now, just a short time ago, he is already a marquis, and he is still a first-class man!
Thinking of this, I have tightened my hand on the handkerchief several times, and my legs and palms feel a little moist.
At this time, Mrs. Xing was also a little shocked. She was thinking about her niece Xiuyan's life events. After hearing this, she said softly: "First-class Marquis, isn't this two ranks higher than the third-class Marquis of the Third Master of the Shi family?"
This Rongguo eldest wife who was born in a small family obviously has low emotional intelligence and is not very good at talking, but she often doesn't listen to the truth.
The first-class marquis is more respected than the third-class marquis!
Regardless of the number of hereditary payments or other salaries, they are much better.
The Rongqing Hall was immersed in a joyful and exciting atmosphere and did not answer the question.
Even Jia Mu just frowned and didn't pay attention. She just smiled and said: "Brother Heng, you are really shining on the lintel. When the ancestors are worshiped at the end of the year, I can say that I have something to say to Mr. Rong Ning."
Sister Feng said with a smile: "How old is Brother Heng at this time? In the future, I am afraid that he will be named a Duke like the two Dukes Rong and Ning."
It is quite difficult to be crowned a duke. For example, Duke Ning is only a third-class duke, while Duke Rong is more powerful and is a second-class duke. Therefore, when Daishan comes, he can still retain the title of a small duke, but that is not the case. Stop there.
At this moment, Mrs. Wang was listening to the discussions among the people in the hall, clenching the beads in her hands and feeling extremely bored.
She just felt noisy!
Daiyu Chunshan's starry eyes under her eyebrows were filled with joy, but the girl remembered Jia Heng's instructions and remained calm.
Once he has merit in the future, it will be easier to propose marriage to his father.
There is also Xin Ran in You's beautiful face, and a tall and upright figure seems to be reflected in her eyes.
The young man who spoke with swords in Rongqing Hall, the young man who asked her to sign his name without his family name, had already reached an unspeakable height in just one or two years.
Li Wan and Youshi were thinking the same thing. At this moment, the young woman stared and pursed her pink lips. Her heart was complicated and inexplicable. She couldn't tell whether it was envy or unwillingness.
He has been waiting...
Mrs. Cao smiled, taking in the expressions of everyone in Rongqing Hall, and held the hands of her two daughters.
Li Wen and Li Qi didn't have such complicated emotions on their faces at this moment. To the two girls, they just heard that a neighbor brother who originally studied at Tsinghua University and Peking University got an offer from an Ivy League school. Although there was It's surprising, but it doesn't have much to do with myself.
Obviously, it is not as complicated as watching Jia Heng grow from a commoner to a marquis.
While everyone was chatting, Zhen Lan gently pulled the hand of Zhen Xi, who was sitting next to her. Amid the doubts in her brows and eyes, she whispered softly: "Xi'er is now a Marquise. Are you happy or not?”
Zhen Xi's heart went "Ah", her cheeks as pink as snow were as red as peach blossoms, and she said shyly and angrily: "What are you talking about, sister?"
What kind of marquise is she? However, it was the old brother of the elder brother, and the elder brother warm the quilt ...
Here, the girl's cheeks were ashamed and gently stroked the ring worn above the middle finger. In the heart of the heart, she couldn't help thinking of the experience of the same bed with Jia Yan that day, hugging and sleeping.
The teenager's gentle words, thoughtful, seemed to embrace the young girl, without coming to Jia Yan, as before, it was just warm and sweet.
