After coming out of the palace, Lin Ruhai had to go back to Lantai Temple to arrange and handle government affairs.
Lantai Temple is responsible for monitoring the world. At this sensitive juncture, he has more things in his hands. As a result, I was sitting in the sedan chair, thinking about the priorities and priorities of many things, and how to deal with them. I suddenly felt sleepy, so I sat in the sedan chair and wanted to take a nap for a while.
"Master~Master~~?"
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Ruhai was awakened by the old housekeeper's voice. When he came back to his senses, he found that the old housekeeper had gotten into the sedan chair and was looking at him with a worried look on his face.
"arrive?"
"It's been a while... Master, if you are tired, why not go back to the mansion to rest first, you..."
The old housekeeper was speechless.
Lin Ruhai waved his hand. Now that the emperor is in a state of distress, it is the time for his ministers to share their worries and solve their problems, and he is deeply favored by the emperor. How can he give up his position at this time?
I helped the housekeeper get out of the sedan chair tremblingly, but I felt that my body was extremely heavy and not as good as before. Lin Ruhai already had a guess in his mind, but he didn't reveal it.
After standing for a while, he looked back to the west and said to the old housekeeper: "Go to Rongguo Mansion and tell the old lady that there is new news from outside the Great Wall. Brother Lian is still safe, please don't Too worried."
After speaking, he gave some instructions to the housekeeper and asked how the Jia family would respond.
After the old housekeeper left, Lin Ruhai sighed quietly.
Life is passing by in a flash, and the days are not holidaying. Maybe it’s time to think more about what’s behind you.
…
In the Jia Mansion, many people in the family breathed a sigh of relief because of the emperor's sudden decree of commendation and the message sent by Lin Ruhai.
"Girl Feng, you should relax a little now, right?
If you are really still worried, send someone to move out the old year's grain and distribute it to the poor. This can be regarded as a good deed for Lian'er.
In this way, Lian'er will definitely come back safely. "
These days, rumors are running rampant in the family.
Because both Jia Zheng and Lin Ruhai adhere to the attitude of reporting good things but not bad things, Jia Mu and others only knew that something happened to the sending mission, but they didn't know the specific situation.
On the other hand, Wang Xifeng, who has many tricks and connections, secretly found out a lot of specious news, but most of them were not good news, which made her sleepless at night and unwilling to eat.
He was afraid that bad news about Jia Lian would come at some point.
Today's news finally made her worry less, so she quickly thanked Jia Mu.
As a Rongguo Mansion with more than 100,000 acres of fertile land, even if there are many people eating at home, there is no need to spend money on food.
Just the land rent output sent by farms from various places every year cannot be used up.
The Duke's government did not bother to sell the extra grain. Because it can’t be sold for much silver.
Therefore, when new grains are put into the warehouse, Rongguo Mansion's consistent approach to old grains is to either donate them to Buddhist temples and health care halls, or distribute them to the poor.
As the saying goes, a house that accumulates good deeds will leave a lasting legacy.
Since there is Yu Qing, then God will bless the family and make everyone safe and smooth.
This is the greatest belief of people at that time.
No one thought anything was wrong.
"Sister Lin, do you know that Brother Lian is fine..."
When Tanchun and other sisters saw the adults giving their definitions, they all fell sick with worry when they remembered that Daiyu had been worried about Jia Lian in the past few days, and hurriedly went to tell her the good news.
"real?"
Sure enough, Daiyu, who was lying on the couch, looked much brighter after hearing this.
Tanchun then told Daiyu everything that happened outside.
Behind, Jia Baoyu, who followed the sisters and sneaked in, felt even more uncomfortable when he saw Daiyu's improvement in spirit than when she saw her serious illness.
Sister Lin is too partial.
For such a long time, she has been indifferent to him, but as soon as it comes to Brother Lian, she is so concerned.
"Five Dynasties Rivers, Mountains and Winds"
Why is there such a tormenting person in the world, and why do you call me a good young man in troubled times? I can't forget this person in my heart, alas...
The pure and ignorant boy didn't have much jealousy between men and women, he just felt sad and sad that all his hard work had been wasted.
Sister Lin is too stingy. Is she going to ignore me for the rest of her life because of Anu's affairs?
Jia Baoyu thought secretly.
"Brother Bao, do you think so?"
Tanchun intended to ease the relationship between Jia Baoyu and Daiyu. After all, in a mansion, Daiyu always ignored Jia Baoyu, which made everyone quite uncomfortable.
"Well, what the third sister said is that Lian's second brother, Ji Ren, has his own destiny, and he will be safe and sound.
Besides, there is also the legendary Princess Zhaoyang who is blessed by the gods and is one of a kind. She will definitely be safe and sound.
Didn't the father-in-law in the palace just say that because the second brother Lian led the troops to rescue the princess from the enemy, the saint specially rewarded our family.
Although I did not see it with my own eyes, it is not difficult to imagine the bravery of Brother Lian that day. Otherwise, it would not be possible for the saint to make a special trip to commend him. Thinking about the stories about heroes and beauties sung in ancient books and unofficial histories, this is no different.
I think Brother Lian will definitely become famous now. "
Jia Baoyu always had unique views and amazing words.
Yingchun and Tanchun couldn't help but cover their mouths and snicker when they heard this. Only Daiyu, whose face turned slightly dark, looked at Jia Baoyu and said for a long time: "You'd better say this in front of the second sister-in-law Lian." "
"Pfft~"
"whee……"
Daiyu's choking words caused Tanchun and others to break their defense instantly.
Jia Baoyu also smiled and did not dare to speak freely.
…
Different from the good atmosphere deliberately created by the capital, everyone in Oala and Zhanghetan Camp was in a very depressed mood.
As the troops who followed Jia Lian to rescue the princess returned sparsely, but Jia Lian and Princess Zhaoyang were never seen, everyone's worries became more and more intense.
On this day, Wu Shiwei's generals successfully brought Ah Qin, Zhang Yong and others back.
"Where are the princess and General Jia?!!"
As soon as they met, both sides asked questions almost at the same time.
It turned out that with the passage of time, the Wala Royal Court finally uncovered the conspiracy and set things right.
With the arrogance of Bahamu's old troops gone, Zhang Yong, Ah Qin and others, who had been struggling for many days in their encirclement, were able to successfully meet with Wu Shiwei's people and return to the camp.
However, Zhang Yong and others thought that Jia Lian and Princess Zhaoyang should have returned to the camp long ago.
But no! That can only mean that something might have happened to them!
Zhang Yong and others immediately went back to search, but Wu Shiwei sent someone to stop them.
"Now the imperial court has issued a new decree, asking the mission to withdraw to Ganning Pass and wait for Oara to send someone over to discuss follow-up matters.
As far as I know, because we killed their third prince, Wala's attitude towards continuing the alliance is somewhat ambiguous.
If the princess and General Jia really fall into their hands, the court will try to get them to return the princess and General Jia.
However, if this were not the case, the princess and General Jia were just delayed on the road. If we conducted a large-scale search, it would put the princess and General Jia in danger.
Therefore, for the current plan, it is best to pretend that the princess has been taken back by us, so that the Wala people will lose their intention to make a fuss about the princess, and then we will conduct a secret investigation and search. "
This was Wu Shiwei's decision based on the situation.
Everyone in Wala knows that it was Jia Lian and Princess Zhaoyang who killed Bahamu. This is a sensitive period when the alliance between the two countries is on the verge of collapse. If the Wala people know that Jia Lian and Princess Zhaoyang are still in their hinterland, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not have evil thoughts such as being detrimental to Princess Zhaoyang.
Anyway, Aqin was brought back disguised as Princess Zhaoyang, just in time to hide her from others.
Even though Zhang Yong and others were very worried, they had to follow Wu Shiwei's orders and arrangements.
The men and horses in the camp, escorted by the officers and soldiers of Ganning Pass, slowly retreated towards Ganning Pass. However, an army was left on the Zhanghe beach to pick up Jia Lian and Princess Zhaoyang who might come back at any time. The Wala side claimed that it was to pick up the soldiers who had been separated from the previous battle.
