Liu Heng looked at the secret letter in his hand. The paper on the first page was slightly yellowed, and the handwriting was vigorous and strong.
He was a little jealous that his father had such a loyal minister as Jia Daishan...
No, it’s a brother!
The imperial brother also has Jia Jing, Jia She and others, but where is my "Jia Daishan"?
People tend to be verbose when they get old. The Supreme Emperor was chattering to the emperor's son about his past with Jia Daishan. The emotion, longing and obvious show off in his words made Liu Heng more and more resentful.
Liu Heng, who had eaten sour grapes, had to change the subject: "Father, what do you think of Jia Jing's proposal?"
"Oh, this..."
The Supreme Emperor began to ponder without finishing his thoughts. This matter was related to the Liaodong plan and could not be solved with a simple sentence.
After a long time, he said: "I ordered Qin Yuliang (Ming Dynasty female general Qin Liangyu as a model) to enter the capital. I want to see how heroic my first female general in Daxia is!"
"Father, do you plan to send the White Army to Liaodong?"
"Yunnan and Guizhou have been stable for a long time. It is a waste for a strong army like the White Guard Army to stay in Yunnan and Guizhou. The situation of the army in the capital is complicated. You might as well throw a stone into it and try to see how deep the water is."
This emperor, who had been in power for fifty years, had a clear understanding of the situation in such a huge empire. Daxia must cut off the feudal vassal, but before cutting off the vassalage, there must be sufficient preparations, and there must be no danger of war and military disasters raging everywhere.
Liu Heng thought for a while and made a suggestion: "I think the Ping-Japanese army can be divided into one part..."
However, the Supreme Emperor shook his head and said solemnly: "No, Jiangnan is a rich land and the soldiers and horses of the Jiangnan Camp cannot be used. My father is preparing to abolish the Jiangnan Camp and replace it with the Japanese army. You choose the person to be the commander of the capital." "
Liu Heng, who was depressed after his suggestion was rejected, was overjoyed. He stood up and said, "Thank you, Father. I will definitely choose a suitable person to take charge of the overall situation in Jiangnan."
"My father has given me everything in the world. Is this something worthy of my thanks?"
The Supreme Emperor glanced at the emperor's son, waved his hands indifferently and said: "There is no hurry about Liaodong's affairs. Qian Kangshi was beaten half to death by Jia She, and Qian Kun was stabbed by the little fat man again. The Dongping Palace did not have the energy to deal with it in a short period of time. "
Liu Heng laughed loudly when he heard this, and said to the outside of Huangji Palace: "This boy is really my son's lucky star. This unintentional impulse has bought my son a lot of time."
The father and son looked at each other and smiled, feeling even more satisfied with Ning Rongjia's family.
…
Jia Cong's life-and-death fight rekindled the passion of many martial arts families. At least these days, there are far fewer young men wandering around the city every day.
This resulted in the business of Qin Lou Chu Pavilion being worse than before. According to Xue Pan, several Fengyue places gritted their teeth when mentioning Jia Cong of Rongguo Mansion.
However, this matter had no impact on Jia Cong who was studying seriously. After all, these people's teeth could not really bite him, but if he failed in his studies, the saint's board would really hurt.
The Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and Jia Cong finally has two days of vacation. Early that morning, as the little fat man got up from the bed, he heard the girls Ji Xiang and Ruyi who were standing outside discussing something in a low voice.
As soon as I asked, I found out that Baolinghou actually gave in and gave Xiangyun's mother's dowry.
….
Ah! Strange!
You must know that in order to recover what belonged to Xiangyun, Jia Zheng personally wrote a petition and directly sued Baoling Hou Shi Nai and Zhongjing Hou Shi Ding to Shuntian Mansion.
If this matter hadn't been so embarrassing to Wu Xun, and several old marshals from the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion had come out to act as a trap, Master Pardon would have brought his men to the door.
But even so, the Shi brothers could delay it as long as they could. After all, they exchanged all Xiangyun's mother's dowry for money in order to be released abroad. Just buying it back took two months.
There were definitely many items that could never be found, so the Shi brothers had to try their best to find similar items to make up for them.
Just like that, when Jia Mu stared at the dowry list one by one, she almost fainted from anger.
she
I feel so ashamed that the dignified Baolinghou Mansion actually exchanged people's dowry for silver flowers. The ancestors of the historians, my descendants are unworthy, please take these two things away!
"Auntie, that's it."
Jia Jing took the initiative and put these new and old things into the warehouse. Wen Yan comforted the old lady who was shaking with anger.
He waved all the juniors and maids in Rongxi Hall to go out, and said with a smile: "If a few old commanders hadn't warned Shi Nai and Shi Ding, I'm afraid they would have continued to drag it on. This is almost enough for Girl Yun to grow up. Let's replenish it when the time comes, it's better than staying in the Bowling Marquis Mansion and suffering."
"I feel ashamed. The two princes of the same clan live like this. They exchange women's dowry for money. The historian family has lost their face!"
The old lady was the most honorable person, and the table was slapped loudly.
Suddenly, she looked at Jia She with sharp eyes: "Boss, which one of those two bastards is missing?"
Jia She was a little confused and asked doubtfully, "I heard from people in the Governor's Office that it was because of the shortage of commanders in Sichuan and Huguang."
"They are really good at picking places. Go and use your strength and let them go to Yunnan and Guizhou to deal with the barbarians."
The old lady's words made Jia She dumbfounded. He had to explain: "You think too highly of your son. The Ministry of Personnel is not run by our family. It was His Majesty who nodded and the Fifth Army Governor's Office gave the seal."
At this point, Jia She lowered his voice and said, "There is something wrong with this matter. When my son was drinking with Cao Jiugong, he mentioned it. There is a serious party quarrel in Sichuan and Huguang. Your Majesty intends to rectify it. Our family should not get involved. "
The old lady also knew the importance of the word "party struggle", and now she was a little worried that the historian would be completely ruined because of his involvement in the party struggle and the loss of his title.
Jia She saw the old lady's worries and comforted her: "You must not get involved. Our family is well. Even if something happens to the Shi family, we can still save the lives of several brothers and sisters. Girl Yun, you are the only one left to rely on!"
Even though the old lady had thousands of thoughts in her heart, she could only sigh: "What can I do? Those two bastards would never have made such a fuss if they had listened to me. Life or death is their own choice. I All we can do is protect Girl Yun and the others."
…
The Beijing inspection has come to an end, and the tense atmosphere in the capital has obviously been relieved before the Dragon Boat Festival.
After helping his second sister-in-law Wang Xifeng put the things sent by the Shi family into the warehouse, Jia Cong took Jia Shiyi and two soldiers out of the house. As soon as he went out, he saw Baoyu sneaking out of the house.
….
At this time, Baoyu was taking his servants Mingyan and Li Gui. An ordinary-looking carriage stopped at the roadside, and the driver was respectfully saluting Baoyu.
"Brother Bao..."
When Baoyu heard someone calling him, he was shocked and turned around in fear.
Seeing Jia Cong running up to him, he quickly reached out and covered the little fat man's mouth, and begged softly: "Brother Cong, don't shout, don't shout!"
After blinking several times, Baoyu finally let go.
The liberated Jia Cong took several breaths of fresh air before asking: "Brother Bao, what are you doing so sneakily? Uncle Bao has forbidden you. If he finds out, he will be punished." "
Baoyu leaned into his ear and whispered: "Brother Feng from General Shenwu's Mansion returned to Beijing the day before yesterday. He sent someone to deliver the message. Let's meet at Huiying Tower today..."
"Feng Ziying?"
Jia Cong grinned: "Then bring a younger brother, I'm bored."
Unable to bear it, the little fat man turned into a troublemaker, so Jia Baoyu had to take him with him.
The Japanese pirates in Jiangnan were finally completely pacified in early April, and the brothers from various prefectures in the capital who went to Jiangnan for gilding returned to the capital one after another.
Feng Ziying was one of them, and she was also a hero who accomplished the Eight Kills. Before she returned to Beijing, the reward was sent to General Shenwu's Mansion.
He is a sixth-grade Zhongxian Colonel. Although his actual position has not yet been officially determined, he heard that his father intends to send him to the Beijing camp for training.
As soon as she had some free time after returning to Beijing this time, Feng Ziying immediately wanted to get together with her friends, so she sent them to Wei Ruolan, Liu Xianglian and Jia Baoyu.
Post.
In the private room on the second floor of Huiying Building, after a few people exchanged greetings, everyone turned their attention to the little fat man holding the fruit and clicking it.
Click...
Jia Cong was happily nibbling when he suddenly felt an inexplicable silence in the elegant room. He looked up and saw several people staring at him, grinning: "What are these brothers looking at me for?"
Feng Ziying asked with deep meaning: "Brother Cong, can you tell me whether you think I should go to Jiubian to practice?"
Jia Cong asked in confusion: "Didn't uncle ask Brother Feng to go to the capital camp?"
I saw Feng Ziying shaking her head and sighing: "Fame only comes from horses. I don't want to waste my time in the capital camp. Although there are no major battles in Jiubian, there are always opportunities to perform meritorious service on the battlefield."
Unexpectedly, Feng Ziying is still a person with great ambitions!
Jia Cong thought for a while and said cryptically: "If Brother Feng is not afraid of danger, you can ask your uncle to talk to His Majesty and see if there is any shortage in the towns in Liaodong."
The word "Liaodong" was a little stronger in tone. Feng Ziying was an extremely smart person and she immediately had a plan in mind.
He cupped his hand, took out another bead from his purse, and handed it to Jia Cong: "I accidentally bought this in Jinling. It's not valuable. Brother Cong, just take it and play with it."
Jia Cong didn't reject it with false feelings. He happily took it and thanked him in return: "Brother Feng is so brave. This is a great treasure. Thank you for the reward!"
The beads were not precious pearls, but resin-condensed amber, with a tiny ant in them. This thing is a rare item, and Sister Lin will definitely like it.
The little fat man who got the gift started playing happily. Feng Ziying didn't ask anything else and asked the waiter to serve food and wine.
….
Among them, Baoyu had no interest in economic career, but he was happy for his friend's future and frequently raised glasses to congratulate him.
Liu Xianglian was obviously in a complicated mood, and Wei Ruolan had never been in good health and basically had no chance of taking the military path. From time to time, she communicated with Jia Cong about the imperial examination.
Baoyu suddenly noticed Wei Ruolan's thoughts and exclaimed, "Ruolan also plans to take the imperial examination?"
The people who raised their glasses all looked at Wei Ruolan who smiled shyly. After seeing him nod, Liu Xianglian pursed her lips and sighed: "Ziying is going to the army, Ruolan is going to take the imperial examination, and I am the only one who is still alone." Useless loser!"
Um?
Jia Baoyu felt that he was being understood, so he smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Liu, I'm still here."
Ha ha ha ha……
Laughter rang out in the private room, which dispelled the sudden boredom just now.
Jia Cong thought of Liu Congxi, the Qianhu Station of Qianhu Station in Yangzhou, where he met the Dragon Imperial Guard when he was in Yangzhou. In terms of seniority, Liu Xianglian was his cousin, and he was within the fifth service.
He suggested: "Brother Liu is famous for his swordsmanship in the capital. If you want to pursue a military career, I can go home and talk to my father."
But Liu Xianglian shook her head and replied bitterly: "My surname is Liu, Liu from the Liguo Duke's Mansion!"
Baoyu couldn't understand this sentence, but Feng Ziying and Wei Ruolan, who knew a lot about the bad things in Liguo's mansion, sighed almost at the same time.
The good Qilin son of the Liu family has to be suppressed to this extent by his direct descendants. It is really a waste of the family fortune that Mr. Liu has sacrificed his life for his children and grandchildren.
Liu Xianglian raised the wine glass in front of her and drank it down with a wry smile.
Then he swept away the sad look on his face and said boldly: "It's my fault for disturbing the joy of my brothers. Come on, let's not talk about these boring things. Today is to clean up Ziying's dust, let's have fun Haha!"
Before, Jia Cong really didn't know that the cold-faced gentleman Liu Erye, who was famous in the capital, had such a side.
He clinked glasses with these people one by one while holding fruit wine, listening to them talking about interesting things from Jiangnan Fengyue in the capital, and chiming in from time to time, until after three drinks, noisy sounds came from outside the private room.
"Why is it so noisy?"
Baoyu was dissatisfied with being disturbed. He opened the door and took a look. He immediately closed the door in a panic and said, "Oh no, it's my dad!"
"Second uncle?"
Jia Cong was surprised
He stood up, walked to the door, opened a crack and looked out, it was really his second uncle Jia Zheng.
I saw my second uncle pushing and shoving with a few scribes and a group of people who were obviously not dressed in Central Plains clothing.
"Korean!"
Um?
Feng Ziying glanced through the crack of the door and saw the identity of the person who had a conflict with Jia Zheng.
He frowned and explained in a low voice to several people: "My father escorted the adults from the Ministry of Etiquette to Korea before. The clothes of these people are very similar to the picture album my father brought back."
Bang!
Just as he was talking, Jia Cong saw that the Korean guard stabbed Jia Zheng in the stomach with the scabbard. Jia Zheng, who was caught off guard, fell to the ground in pain and groaned.
"Damn it, beat my second uncle and you're courting death!"
Jia Cong opened the door of the private room, rushed out quickly, and kicked the person who was obviously the leader of Gaoli in the abdomen.
The Korean who was completely unprepared was actually kicked down by Jia Cong, and rolled down the stairs with a clang.
….
The other Koreans were immediately shocked and angry, and surrounded Jia Cong, Jia Zheng and others.
Neither party seemed to understand what the other party was saying. They talked for a long time. Perhaps the Koreans were really angry. One of them actually grabbed the sword from the guard's hand, drew it, threatened and shouted.
"Buzz!"
With a clang, a delicate and sharp long sword quickly passed through the crowd and stabbed hard on the back of the man's hand. Jia Cong snatched the long sword that fell from his hand and put it on the man's hand. of the neck.
As soon as the figure flashed, Liu Xianglian stood in front of Jia Zheng and the scribes with a sword in hand. Feng Ziying and others also rushed out. Baoyu and Wei Ruolan helped Jia Zheng up.
"Second uncle, how are you?"
"Dad, are you okay?"
"Baoyu, brother Cong?"
Jia Zheng endured the pain, and then he saw clearly the people standing in front of him.
"Nephew Ziying, Ruolan, and Erlang of the Liu family? Why are you here?"
Baoyu was about to explain when he saw a group of Korean guards rushing up the stairs to protect the person who had just been kicked downstairs by Jia Cong.
"You are a arrogant and rebellious person. I am the crown prince of Goryeo, Li Mingshu. How dare you assassinate me..."
"Young little Goryeo dares to be called a loner!"
"You are so presumptuous, are you trying to deceive the might of my Daxia army?"
Only then did these scribes realize that these Koreans understood everything and had just pretended not to understand the official language.
When he heard Li Mingshu shouting about his identity and calling him a loner, he immediately became furious.
According to the etiquette system, the only person in the Goryeo Kingdom who could be called an orphan was the King of Goryeo who was granted the title of Prince of Jeju. Moreover, there was no crown prince in Goryeo, only the crown prince of Jeju County in Daxia.
Li Mingshu saw several scribes reprimanding him one after another, and couldn't help but said angrily: "I'll take down this group of arrogant and rebellious people. I want to enter the palace and ask His Majesty the Emperor, is this how the Xia Kingdom treats its distinguished guests?" "
Swish, swish, swish!
More than a dozen of Goryeo's guards drew their swords one after another, and Jia Cong's eyes shrank.
He didn't believe that Li Mingshu didn't know what the golden crown, jade belt, and brocade clothes meant in Daxia. Since he knew that his and others' identities must be extraordinary, he still dared to be so arrogant and domineering in the capital of Daxia. He must have an indescribable reliance on him.
When Jia Zheng saw that Goryeo had a large number of people, he drew his sword and approached. He quickly protected Baoyu behind him and reached out to grab Jia Cong's shoulders, trying to pull him behind him.
But Jia Cong turned around and smiled at him and said, "Second uncle, don't worry, my nephew doesn't take these chickens and dogs lightly!"
With that said, he broke free from Jia Zheng's hand, turned to Liu Xianglian and Feng Ziying and asked: "Two brothers, do you dare to join hands to fight against the enemy and capture this disrespectful Goryeo crown prince?"
Feng Ziying touched her waist, and there was a "swish" sound and a flash of cold light. It turned out that this guy also had a soft sword on his waist.
Feng Ziying smiled and danced a beautiful sword flower: "Why don't you dare?"
But Liu Xianglian just nodded calmly and pulled out again.
Swords, one in each hand, two mandarin duck swords showing their sharp edges.
Bang bang bang!
There were screams from the first floor. Jia Cong grinned and sneered at Li Mingshu: "Don't think you are the only one with more people. I also have many people!"
Jia Cong had offended many people, and Master Pardon was never worried about the little fat man wandering around alone.
In addition to Jia Shiyi who has been following him, there are eight out of ten hidden guards in the dark. Jia Cong dared to confidently call these people chickens and dogs. How could he not rely on them?
Young Master, I, the leader of the whole capital, will kill you today for committing the crime of disrespect. The most I will do is get a few slaps.
As he spoke, Jia Cong showed no fear at all. He looked at each other with Liu Xianglian and Feng Ziying, and the three of them flew towards Li Mingshu to kill him.
Goryeo's guard was quite alert and immediately pulled his master back and protected him in the center.
Three guards rushed forward, trying to block the attack of Jia Cong and others. It's a pity that they didn't realize how shameless the little fat man in front of them was...
Wow...
White smoke appeared in front of them instantly, and the three Korean guards suddenly felt blind. Even Liu Xianglian and Feng Ziying were stunned for a moment.
"A soldier never tires of deceit. My smoke bombs are really effective!"
