I don’t know when, snowflakes also started to fall in Jinling City.
This is the first snowfall in Jinling this year, and the sky seems to be sinking. Upstairs in Xunfang Tower, a very outstanding-looking girl is looking at the sky in a daze.
Not long after, a little maid came over holding a thick cloak.
"Girl, let me tell you, if you really can't let him go, you should go with him..."
The girl took the big cloak, put it on her body, touched the little maid's head, and smiled softly, "Xi'er, you don't understand, he is a good person, but even if we follow, what's the point? I want to compare myself with those ladies. If it’s just about looks, I think I’m not inferior to anyone. But what about a few years later? Instead of being a vase, it’s better to be a person who is useful to him, so that when he gets there, he will really be there. There, we also have something to rely on~"
Xi'er was still young and didn't understand Shuangshuang's words, but she also knew that her girl was a smart person. In terms of intelligence, she was ten times better than her. Knowing that the girl had her own plans, she didn't say anything anymore. Her little nose twitched twice more, and she smelled a strange smell.
When Shuangshuang saw Xi'er's actions, she felt ashamed and wiped the corners of her mouth unconsciously. She knew one thing. There would definitely not be only one or two women around him in the future. With that kind of ability, I'm afraid three or two None of them were rivals. Looking at the little maid next to them, their eyes became a little strange. If she and Xi'er were together by then, she would be able to...
"Xi'er, let me tell you something..."
On the top of Qixia Mountain, two cranes came from the clouds, and the sound of the cranes' cries lingered and echoed. The Taoist priests who were meditating here saw the two cranes with majestic postures from a distance, and felt their hearts agitated. Crying for a miracle.
Then I heard a clever laughter coming from Jiutian, and I was even more surprised. I just thought that I had met a living god, so I bowed my head and bowed.
Above the crane, there was indeed a pair of people, Jia Chu and Xiang Ling who were returning from the north. Thinking of many things that happened after going south, Jia Chu suddenly felt a little irritable. After that, he relaxed his mind and forced himself to calm down, but he found that There seemed to be something strange about his state of mind, as if there was something wrong with him.
He didn't know exactly where it was, just an indescribable feeling.
So he didn't think about anything, just tightened the little girl in his arms, and listened to the laughter that came from time to time in his ears, and his mood gradually improved.
"Uncle, what is that?"
"I'm not sure, it should be a Taoist temple!"
"What about that one?"
"It's a tiger..."
"It's that big cat that can eat people..."
"Uncle~"
…
Another day passed in a blur. Under the rising sun, Jia Qi and Xiang Ling returned to the capital.
Jia Qi patted Xiang Ling’s small buttocks and said, “We’re home!
"
The little girl rubbed her eyes and looked at the familiar pool in front of her. The familiar people jumped three feet high.
Finally came back, and then Jia Qi said to her: "Go and prepare the court clothes for me, and you have to go to the palace to pick up Cai Luan and Miaoyu~"
Except for Xu Yuanhui, the personal guards in the Houfu did not move. Erniu was still there.
After hearing the reports from his subordinates, Erniu and his guards rushed over quickly. Seeing that Jia Qi was fine, these people couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing them like this, Jia Yu couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Okay, who do you think I am? Although Jiangnan is dangerous, is it more dangerous than Jiubian?"
Erniu took a step forward, and the next moment his burly body was like pushing a mountain of gold and knocking over a jade pillar, kneeling on the ground.
He said with a look of shame: "Please give me some punishment, General. We did not protect you well and both girls were taken away!"
Seeing the guilty expressions on their faces, Jia Yu waved her hand, "I already know about this matter, and you are not to blame. If you had taken action in the previous situation, I'm afraid the situation would have been even worse!"
Then Jia Qi sighed again, "It must be Cai Luan and Miao Yu who went voluntarily!"
Erniu and others nodded when they heard this. Jia Qi hit the nail on the head. Cai Luan and Miao Yu seemed to have expected that someone would come to the palace that day. They told them and followed them.
He also told them that nothing would happen to them and everything would be fine when Jia Qi came back, and asked them not to conflict with the coming imperial guards.
With Miaoyu here, Jia Qi guessed that nothing uncontrollable would happen. She was a divine divination expert and could predict many things in advance. If it was really uncontrollable, she would have asked Cai Luan to send a message to her.
After a stick of incense, Jia Chu changed into his court clothes and headed towards the Daming Palace. Today coincided with the Ming Dynasty, so there was no early morning pilgrimage, which was a big advantage. Otherwise, he might have had to wait until he had time to summon him!
In the imperial study room, Dai Quan walked in with small steps. The emperor's champion was back.
Emperor Mingkang was dressed in a bright dragon robe. Hearing Dai Quan's words, he moved his hands.
"Let him wait outside."
The slightly gloomy voice revealed that Emperor Mingkang's mood at this time was not that good.
The official investigating the matter had already reported the situation secretly. When he saw the report, he couldn't help but feel chills in his heart.
He knew that the Zhen family was not simple, but judging from the mobilization of troops in several provinces, the power almost radiated to the entire Jiangnan.
There are nearly 70,000 to 80,000 people near Jinling alone. What kind of concept is this? The other party may have had the intention of treason. He had sent people to investigate what Lin Ruhai had reported earlier, but at that time, Zhen Shihai had already Lu Yue was ordered to go into hibernation. Not much was found out that time, but in this battle, what the Zhen family exposed was really shocking.
He has the daughter of his Zhen family by his side, and ironically she is also accused of being a virtuous concubine, one of the four concubines. That was his bedfellow. When he thought that his father-in-law was going to rebel against him, he almost couldn't hold it back and summoned the ten clansmen of the Zhen family to be executed.
As for Jia Qi, who was trying to calm down the matter, he mobilized his troops without authorization and rode down to the south of the Yangtze River. He reached Jinling in just three or two days. Moreover, Jia Qi also won this battle, and his reputation was even better. There was a vague trend that it was beyond his control. It’s time for a little banging.
Jia Qi came outside the imperial study. Dai Quan had been waiting here for a long time. When he saw Jia Qi coming, Dai Quan quickly took two steps forward and said: "Master Marquis, the emperor's son has something else to do at the moment~ Let you wait~ "
Jia Qi was not a fool. When he heard this, he guessed what Emperor Mingkang was thinking. If the other party had not done this, he was afraid that Emperor Mingkang would have killed the cunning rabbit, cooked the lackeys, wiped out the birds, and hidden the good bow. .
So he didn't think it was anything. Dai Quan left after he finished speaking. Before Jia Qi could stand for a while, he saw an old eunuch walking over from a distance. It was Taihe Palace who had met him once. Xia Cheng, the eunuch in charge of the palace.
"Young~ Master Hou, what are you doing? It's cold, you are standing outside~"
Jia Qi cupped his fists and said hello, "It's Manager Xia~ I'm thinking about Jiangnan. Aren't I going back to Beijing to resume my duties? The Emperor seems to be in trouble. I'm waiting here."
When Xia Cheng heard this, he nodded slightly, "That's it. In fact, the Za family came here today because of the order of the Supreme Emperor. He wanted to invite the Marquis to come over and ask questions! Now the Emperor has important matters, then Will the Marquis go with the Za family to see the Supreme Emperor first?"
But before the words could be spoken, the door curtain was lifted again, and it was Dai Quan who left and returned, "I have seen Xia Naijian, Mr. Marquis, the emperor has summoned him~"
Xia Cheng's face darkened, but he didn't say anything and could only wait here.
Seeing this situation, Jia Qi was thoughtful. It seemed that the capital was indeed not very stable during this period.
Jia Qi gave Xia Cheng an apologetic look and followed Dai Quan into the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, Jia Qi, pays homage to the Emperor!"
In the room, Emperor Mingkang was leaning on a couch, flipping through a memorial in his hand. After seeing Jia Qi come in, Emperor Mingkang did not get up, but continued to read the memorial.
"Cailuan is a disciple of the Five Poison Sect in Southern Xinjiang. After losing the competition for the leader's position, he became a bandit in Yanshan. He was taken away by a mysterious man in the twelfth year of Mingkang. He later appeared in Liaodong Town, accompanied by the champion Hou Jiachu~ "
"Miaoyu is the daughter of Li Yufu, the former supervisor of Jiangnan Province. Her father was imprisoned for corruption and her house was ransacked. Later, she went to Panxiang Temple to practice and worshiped Master Dingxuan as her teacher. She came to Beijing on the 18th~"
Jia Qi narrowed his eyes and stood there calmly, but he underestimated the secret guards under Emperor Mingkang, and did not expect that all these things would be revealed.
But what did Emperor Mingkang mean by saying this at this time?
"Lu Shuangshuang, whose background is unknown, later became the adoptive father of Lu Yue, the leader of the Salt Gang, and went to the Flower House to find out information for the Salt Gang. This was the trigger for the Snow Dragon Riding Camp to go to the south of the Yangtze River~"
"Xiang Ling, formerly known as Zhen Yinglian, was the only daughter of Zhen Shiyin. She was abducted at the age of eight and was later rescued by a mysterious young master. Later, by chance, she was taken into the Lin Mansion by Lin Ruhai. Lin Ruhai returned to Beijing and brought back this daughter, who later became His daughter Lin Daiyu, a maid, was married to the champion Hou Jiayu in the fifteenth year of Emperor Kangdi’s reign in the Ming Dynasty~"
"It's not that I don't know many things, but I have never said a word. It's just that I have trusted you. Women have not been allowed to enter the army in the army since ancient times. If you, Jia Gu, broke it, I just pretended not to see it. Others It's the same thing. I've also heard about those mysterious things, but I never interfered. I think I gave you, the champion Hou Jiachu, enough face."
"Since ancient times, there have been many people who have contributed to the three armies, but there are only a few who can start well and end well. You are my personal champion. I hope that you and I can become a good story for the ages, just like Emperor Wu and Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, Tang Taizong and Fang Xuan Ling, Wei Zheng, I don’t want to be Liu Bang, I hope you won’t disappoint me~”
...
"The affairs in Jiangnan have been causing constant criticism in the past two days. If you hadn't done a good job in suppressing the rebellion, and if Lin Ruhai had spoken for you, I might not have been able to step down~"
"Okay, I'm tired too, so I won't say much more. Your two girls are at Fengzao Palace. You can pick them up in a while and go back directly! Dai Quan, please go with Jia Chu~"
When Dai Quan heard this, he bowed and accepted the order~
Outside the door, Xia Cheng saw Jia Qi coming out. He was about to speak when Dai Quan said, "Manager Xia, the Holy One has decreed that the Marquis should take the two girls from the Marquis back to the house immediately and close the door to reflect on his mistakes~"
