Seeing Yue Ya agreed, Lin Daiyu nodded.
"Yueya, when you are ready, follow the caravan to Liaodong and go directly to Liaoyang to meet the prince. If you have family members, that is fine. When you arrive in Liaodong, the prince will be responsible for arranging them, whether it is fields or shops. question."
"Yes, Princess, I know. If there is nothing else, I will go down and prepare."
"Well, it's none of your business. You and Erya go down and get ready."
"yes."
Yue Ya and Er Ya agreed and went down together.
Lin Daiyu looked at Xue Baochai and smiled and said: "Sister Bao, please arrange a caravan for you to join Yue Ya and the others in three days to go to Liaodong together."
Xue Baochai nodded: "Don't worry, Princess. Our caravan can set off at any time. It won't be delayed. Does the prince have anything else to say?"
"Well, Chunlan and the others will stay. When you have the baby, they will return to Liaodong and bring the good news to the prince. This is the prince's letter. You should also read it."
Lin Daiyu said as she handed the letter in her hand to Xue Baochai.
Xue Baochai took the letter and read it carefully.
Shi Xiangyun also came up and looked at it seriously, and screamed in surprise.
"Great. Third brother asked me to go to Liaodong to find him. He finally didn't forget me. He missed me so much during this period. Why should I be with Chunlan? Why can't I be with Yueya? I really want to see you soon. To the third brother."
After Xue Baochai read the letter, a smile appeared on his face.
She was satisfied knowing that Jia Cong had not forgotten her and was always thinking about her.
Although she also wanted to see Jia Cong as soon as possible, she also knew that it was simply impossible in her current situation.
She is about to give birth, and even if she gives birth to a baby, it will only be a while. The baby is small and can't go anywhere.
Thinking about it this way, I felt a little envious of Shi Xiangyun.
Xue Baochai rolled his eyes at Shi Xiangyun and said angrily: "Just be content, we don't have a chance to go even if we want to go. You are still not happy if I ask you to wait a few more days. The prince is doing this for your own good."
Although the caravan also has guards, its defense strength is not that good after all. The ones led by Chunlan and the others are the prince's personal soldiers and are powerful. With them protecting you, your trip will be safe and worry-free. "
Shi Xiangyun chuckled and said, "Okay then, I will wait for Sister Bao to give birth to the baby, and then I will go with Chunlan and the others to find the third brother. Sister Bao, can you give birth soon?"
Xue Baochai rolled her eyes. Can she have the final say on giving birth to a child?
This damn girl is really crazy about men.
Looking at the appearance of the two of them, Lin Daiyu burst out laughing.
"Sister Yun, do you think a man is crazy? You can say such things? That's giving birth to a child, not... that kind of thing."
"Tsk, I wonder what happened to the third brother. He is my own man. Not long after we got married, he led the army on an expedition. We haven't seen him for more than half a year. How can I miss him? I don't believe you don't miss the third brother. "
They had just been married for a month or two, and before they had enough intimacy, they separated.
We have been apart for more than half a year, it would be strange not to miss them.
Shi Xiangyun's girl's temperament is exactly the age of Huaichun. She has just tasted the taste of love, how can she bear it.
Naturally, he couldn't wait to have the opportunity to get together with his lover.
After hearing Shi Xiangyun's words, the two of them fell silent.
They are both a young couple, how could they miss their men?
It's just that the men are fighting outside, and even if they want to, there is nothing they can do.
The other concubines can accompany Jia Cong, go to his side and take care of his food and daily life.
As the head wife, Lin Daiyu cannot leave Beijing casually.
He was to stay at home and act as a hostage.
Thinking of this, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but feel troubled.
According to Jia Cong's intention, this battle will last for several years, so won't he never be able to see brother Cong again?
Although Brother Cong also said that when the palace is built, he and others will take it over.
But Brother Cong is leading troops to fight outside. Will the court allow him to leave the capital?
It seems like Sister Bao and the others can go, but I can’t.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but frown tightly.
Xue Baochai noticed Lin Daiyu's strange behavior and asked doubtfully: "What's wrong? Are you thinking of something?"
Lin Daiyu took a long breath and shook her head: "It's okay, I just thought of some problems. I won't talk about it anymore. You'd better take good care of the baby and try to give birth to the baby smoothly. There is another one here who is waiting to meet her lover. Woolen cloth."
Xue Baochai smiled and did not ask any more questions.
Shi Xiangyun was not afraid of the two making fun of him, and went back to his room to pack his things with a happy face.
Although there is still some time, there is already hope, right?
······
Yueya took Erya back to her yard.
The list of all spies in the capital, as well as their contact methods, were handed over to Erya.
Later, the two went to Jia Cong's other courtyard together, which was the former Lai family courtyard.
Ever since everyone moved to Ningguo Mansion, the yard here has been free.
In addition to the soap-making workshop that still remains here, the stronghold of Tiezhu and his special forces is also set up here.
Later, Yueya's intelligence organization headquarters was also established here.
There are more than twenty permanent personnel here, responsible for the screening and archiving of intelligence.
During this period, Erya had been Yue Ya's deputy, and the handover between the two became much simpler.
Since Caiyun exposed Mrs. Wang, she could no longer stay in Rongguo Mansion. Yue Yabian arranged her here to be responsible for archiving information.
Not only Caiyun, but also Jin Chuaner took the initiative to find Yueya after being rescued and started to help Yueya do things.
The three of them all grew up in Jia's family and know each other well.
After Jia Cong became successful, Yue Ya's status also increased, and the relationship between them was also quite good.
Later, Yue Ya took charge of the intelligence work and got along more harmoniously with these people, so he agreed naturally.
This time Yue Ya went to Liaodong and wanted to bring a few familiar people with her, so she found the two of them.
"Caiyun, Jinchuan, the prince has sent an order to transfer me to Liaodong to set up an intelligence network there. Are you two willing to go with me? If so, go back and pack your things, and follow me to Liaodong in three days.
If you don't want to go, just continue to work here and follow Erya from now on. She will take over the work here. Just do it voluntarily, no need to force it. "
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but think about it.
Since they came into contact with intelligence work, their horizons have become broader.
No longer limited to the Jia family's three-acre land.
Naturally, we also know that Liaodong is already Jia Cong's fiefdom.
Now that they have the opportunity to go to a new environment, they naturally want to try it.
Also, Jia Cong was fighting in Liaodong, and his wives and concubines were not with him. Maybe he went alone, close to the water, and there was still a chance of clinging to him.
They work under Yue Ya and are very envious of Yue Ya.
In terms of appearance, they are more confident than Yue Ya, but they are just less lucky.
Caiyun said: "Yueya, let me go to Liaodong with you. I offended the second wife and stayed at home. It will be embarrassing if we meet her in the future. It is better to stay away from her and never see her again."
Jin Chuan'er also said: "Yueya, you saved my life. I will also go to Liaodong with you to work in order to repay you and the prince for their great kindness."
Yue Ya smiled and said: "Okay, I'm very happy to have you with me. Otherwise, I would not be used to going to such a far place without people I know well."
The ability of these two people to do things is quite good.
Be serious, careful, organized, and literate, otherwise you won't be favored by Mrs. Wang and become her maid.
Yue Ya still recognized the abilities of the two of them.
"Yueya, where will we stay when we go to Liaodong? Also, how will we get there?"
Neither of them had been out, so they were a little excited, but also a little bit uneasy.
"Your Majesty is in Liaoyang. We will go to Liaoyang with the caravan first. We will live in Liaoyang according to His Majesty's orders. The decision will depend on the situation. I'm not sure yet."
Yue Ya selected a dozen more backbones, making up twenty people.
There are five of them who, like Caiyun and others, are responsible for screening and storing intelligence.
The remaining fifteen people are specialized in intelligence work and are the first batch of Yueyang's elders.
Inform them to prepare their bags and set off for Liaodong in three days.
Erya also successfully took over the entire intelligence work in the capital.
Three days later, the Jia family caravan organized more than a hundred carts of goods and left Shenjing City in a mighty manner and headed for Liaodong.
Yueya and his party met up with the caravan and headed to Liaodong together.
······
Half a month later, the group arrived at Liaoyang City.
After putting down Yue Ya and the others, as well as the supplies they brought to Jia Cong, the caravan turned around and headed for the grassland.
When everyone arrived at the Jiedushi Mansion, Jia Cong received them immediately.
In addition to Yue Ya and their intelligence officers, Dai Quan also followed.
Mainly because he was staying in Ningguo Mansion with nothing to do, and he felt a little out of sorts.
So he took the initiative to find Lin Daiyu and asked to come to Liaodong to help Jia Cong do something.
Lin Daiyu considered that Jia Cong was surrounded by people who were fighting and killing, and lacked management personnel.
After all, Dai Quan had served as a general manager and was quite capable. Since he wanted to go, he agreed.
He then asked him to come to Liaoyang with Yueya and the others with the caravan.
Jia Cong was a little surprised to see Dai Quan. He didn't expect him to come too.
"Brother Dai, if you don't stay in the capital to enjoy the blessings, why did you come to this place? This place is not as prosperous as the capital."
Dai Quan smiled and said, "I have nothing to do in the mansion and I really can't stay idle. This time I come over and ask the prince to give me some food and arrange something to do."
Jia Cong smiled and said, "Okay, since you have come all the way, you can temporarily be my chief manager. I am planning to build the palace, and you will be responsible for keeping an eye on things on the construction site over there for me."
Dai Quan was overjoyed when he heard this and accepted it readily.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely help you, so don't worry."
Jia Cong nodded: "I'm very confident in Brother Dai's abilities. Li Biao, help arrange a place for Manager Dai to live, take him to get familiar with him everywhere, and wait until night, to take care of Brother Dai."
"Yes, I will obey."
Dai Quan was very satisfied with Jia Cong's arrangement.
He is also very enthusiastic about himself and has not alienated himself because of the change in status of both parties.
He thanked Jia Cong and followed Li Biao out.
Yue Ya and their intelligence officers were left. After Jia Cong talked to them one by one, he asked Tie Zhu to take them down to settle down.
Tiezhu is currently in charge of the intelligence work. After they get familiar with it, they will slowly hand it over.
Those few intelligence backbones will definitely be spread out and distributed to various towns to take charge of the overall situation and slowly build an intelligence network.
The headquarters of the intelligence department will be together with Tiezhu and the others for the time being. If necessary, they will be separated again in the future.
Yueya took Caiyun, Jinchuan, and two maids, and lived in the Jiedushi Mansion, where he was responsible for sorting out intelligence every day.
After the joint efforts of Yue Ya and Tiezhu, the intelligence department gradually got on the right track.
Everything in Liaodong is also very stable, and spring plowing and spring sowing have been completed.
Many people have responded to Jia Cong's call and actively reclaimed wasteland. Liaodong is showing a prosperous scene.
I originally thought about letting the army participate in land reclamation, but actually the military settlements are quite good.
It can not only cultivate large areas of land, but also increase the income of soldiers and even increase some tax revenue.
Later, I thought about it and let it go. I had just occupied Liaodong and Shenyang had not yet been captured. If it developed with great fanfare, the imperial court would definitely have objections.
Anyway, I am not short of money, so I will take my time, and I am not in a hurry.
The soldiers should focus on training, so as not to send people from the court to cause trouble.
······
Time flies by and it’s April in a blink of an eye.
This day is Xue Baochai's due date.
A group of sisters came to her yard early to wait.
Han Nianci and the midwife had been in there for a long time, but there was still no movement. The whole family was waiting anxiously.
Jia Mu, Aunt Xue, Mrs. Xing, Wang Xifeng, Li Wan, Yuan Chun and others also rushed over after hearing the news.
Seeing Aunt Xue's anxious look, Jia Mu also offered words of advice.
"Don't worry, auntie. The child with medical skills is not in there. He will be fine. Don't worry."
Lin Daiyu also stepped forward to comfort her: "Auntie, Sister Bao will be fine. Nianci checked her out. The fetal position is correct. Both the adult and the child are normal. You can rest assured."
Xue Baoqin also said: "Sister Nianci's medical skills are amazing. I will definitely give birth to the baby safely."
While everyone was chatting away, a burst of "wow" sounds from a baby came to their ears.
"gave birth."
Everyone was shocked, and all looked at the door.
Ying'er ran out of the house with a happy face and shouted happily: "She's born, she's born, our princess has given birth."
Jia Mu chuckled and said, "Okay, okay, I'll just tell you, baby girl will be fine."
Aunt Xue was also relieved and clasped her hands together with a look of joy.
"Amitabha, Bodhisattva bless, Bodhisattva bless, Ying'er, Bao Yatou is giving birth to a boy, right?"
At this time, the midwife ran out and said with a flattering face: "Congratulations to the old lady, congratulations to the madam, congratulations to the princess, you are a little princess."
