Chapter 1380 Jia Heng: So who is it... (asking for monthly votes!)

Shenjing City, Rongguo Mansion, Rongqingtang

At this moment, Grandmother Jia was sitting on a Luohan bed, her old face showing a kind look. Sitting on an embroidered cushion below her were Lady Wang, Lady Xing and Aunt Xue.

All three of them were dressed in silk and satin clothes, with their hair combed into a bun. Above their hair, there was a golden hairpin shining brightly, which seemed to reflect a face as white as jade.

Grandmother Jia asked curiously, "Recently, the new daughter-in-law came to the family. Is there anything to say?"

On the New Year's Eve before the Lunar New Year, Xue Pan married Xia Jingui, the daughter of the Xia family. Now, Xia Jingui has been married into the Xue family and has been a daughter-in-law for more than two months. On the surface, there seems to be no big problem.

Aunt Xue smiled and said, "It's okay. She is a lady from a wealthy family. She has been well taken care of at home."

Grandmother Jia nodded and said with a smile: "I also met him during the Chinese New Year. He seemed to be a smart and clever man."

Then he smiled and said, "Wenlong was young a few years ago and didn't know much. You should be more responsible in the future."

At this time, a maid from the outer room entered the hall and said, "Madam, there is news from the East Palace that Master Heng won a victory in Korea and will be back soon."

As soon as these words were spoken, most of the people present showed a hint of joy on their faces.

An eager smile appeared on Jia's old face, and she asked, "Brother Heng, where have you been now?"

The maid smiled and said softly, "Madam, the palace hasn't told you where the master is yet. I think he's on his way now."

Grandmother Jia sighed, "I'm out here, and I don't know when I can come back."

Aunt Xue nodded, chuckled, and said, "Old lady, this time Heng'er won the battle. Did the court say anything about rewarding him? After he comes back this time, he should be able to move for the title, right?"

When Hengge'er is granted the title of Prince, her daughter will probably be granted the title of Consort, right?

By then, Bao girl's child will be able to inherit the title of General Auxiliary State or General Serving the Country.

As for the prince...

If Keqing could not give birth to a boy, wouldn't Heng'er's title eventually go to the child of Bao Yatou, who was also a first-rank lady?

As for Lin girl, she has been weak since childhood, and it is still unclear whether she will have children.

In fact, Aunt Xue had already started muttering these things when she had nothing to do, and she couldn't help but longing for something in her heart.

Mrs. Wang was holding a string of sandalwood Buddhist beads in her hand at this moment. She looked at Aunt Xue, who was probably imagining her future. Her expression changed and became a little ugly.

It can be said that some of Aunt Xue’s “little happiness” have gradually become a source of trouble and pain for Mrs. Wang.

Aunt Xue sometimes couldn't help showing off.

After everyone had discussed for a while, most of the people in Rongqing Hall had left, so as not to disturb Lady Jia's nap.

Grandmother Jia took a sip of tea, turned to look at Yuanyang who was tidying up the bedding, and said, "You went to see Lang'er's mother on the fifteenth of last month. Is her illness healed?"

Yuanyang paused as she folded the quilt and said, "Madam, you've been much better these past few days."

Grandmother Jia was silent for a moment, then looked at Yuanyang and said, "Yuanyang, tell me honestly, is Brother Lan's daughter-in-law... pregnant?"

mandarin duck:"……"

It was like a bolt from the blue, shaking the mandarin ducks' delicate bodies violently.

The old lady was very perceptive and had indeed begun to doubt.

Yuanyang was startled, turned around and said, "Madam, this..."

A thoughtful look appeared in Jia's old eyes. She said, "I heard someone mention this to me the day before yesterday. Whose child is the mother of Lang'er's belly?"

Yuanyang said softly, "Old lady, I can't tell you this either."

Grandmother Jia frowned, and with a look of scrutiny in her old eyes, she said, "Is the child in Lang'er's mother's belly Heng's?"

When Yuanyang heard this, a look of worry appeared on her face and her heart skipped a beat.

"You don't have to hide it from me. Apart from Heng'er, whose child could Lang'er's mother be pregnant with? Can we ask Feng girl to help shut the servants up?" Lady Jia said, with a complex look in her eyes.

Zhuge's daughter-in-law has been a widow for six or seven years. How did she catch the eye of Hengge and be bullied by him?

The old lady obviously didn't know that it was Li Wan who seduced Jia Heng first.

Yuanyang's face, which had a few freckles, showed an unnatural look, and he said, "Old lady, this cannot be explained in a few words. I don't know either."

Grandmother Jia sighed and said, "Brother Heng is a young man after all. It's fine if he just does it in the garden, but how could he have an affair with a widow? If this gets out, how will the outside world view our Jia family?"

Yuanyang said softly, "Madam, my master's reputation has been talked about in the capital because of what happened at Longcui Temple."

After all, taking nuns into one's room and asking them to bear children for one is indeed not a good reputation.

A trace of anger suddenly appeared on Jia Mu's face, which was full of wrinkles, and she scolded: "These men in the Jia family are all bad melons hanging from the same vine."

The old lady obviously thought of Jia Daishan at this moment.

Yuanyang thought for a moment and said, "What should we do about this matter that the old lady mentioned? We can't make a big fuss about it and affect the reputation of the master."

"First, we must not let Baoyu's mother know. Secondly, we must shut the servants' mouths and give birth to the child first. Now no one in the mansion knows who the father of the child is, so there is no need to do anything." said Jia's mother.

Yuanyang responded with a "yes" and said nothing more.

……

……

Let's go back a little bit in time, to the 19th year of Chongping, the Lantern Festival -

On this day, the moon was bright in the sky, and the moonlight, like gauze and mist, was like a streak of silk, shining on the earth and on the palaces. Frost could be seen flowing on the dark tiles.

Jia Hengzheng and Gu Ruoqing left the office and went to a mountain near the Korean city wall to watch the moon. After handing over the affairs to Mu Sheng yesterday, Jia Heng had a rare chance to relax. He took advantage of the Lantern Festival to go out for a walk with Gu Ruoqing.

Previously, Jia Heng and Gu Ruoqing had made rapid progress together, but in fact they had no time to develop their relationship.

At this moment, as Gu Ruoqing walked along the city wall, the moon was shining brightly, and the moonlight was like gauze and mist, shining on the earth.

Jia Heng was holding Gu Ruoqing's slender hand at this moment, and turned to look at Gu Ruoqing, who was dressed as a girl. Under his sharp eyebrows, there was a warm smile in his eyes, and he said, "You must have been pent up in the mansion these few days."

Gu Ruoqing's flawless face was blushing bright red, and she said softly, "The dew is white tonight, and the moon is bright in my hometown."

Jia Heng smiled and said jokingly, "Ruoqing, it's spring now, how can there be autumn dew?"

There is no autumn dew, but there is dew in the wild...

Well, do you want to let Gu Ruoqing?

After all... goldfish, with their ability to please others, should be able to try anything.

Jia Heng looked at Gu Ruoqing who was standing beside him. He saw a trace of thoughtfulness on the beautiful woman's bright face. He said softly, "Ruoqing, let's go sit over there."

Gu Ruoqing had a frosty face and was a little surprised for a moment, and then she felt the young man stretched out his hand and touched her plump breasts, and then kneaded them.

Aren’t we here to enjoy the moon?

Why is this happening? As they were talking, they started to make physical advances.

But Gu Ruoqing didn't feel angry at the boy's close intimacy. She just didn't know whether she should feel happy and sweet, or a little embarrassed.

Jia Heng turned his head to look at the beauty, then, taking her soft and smooth hand, he walked towards the wooden pavilion with double eaves and hooked corners, which was shaded by grass and trees not far away.

At this moment, the vermilion beams and pillars on all four sides of the pavilion have been repainted with a new look, and there is a wooden corridor where people can sit.

Jia Heng sat down and pulled the beauty over to sit on his bed. The beauty's beautiful face, as white as snow, gradually showed a hint of shame and anger, and said softly, "Don't mess around."

Jia Heng said softly: "Ruoqing, the moonlight is bright tonight, let's enjoy the moon together."

Gu Ruoqing had a straight and delicate nose under her willow-shaped eyebrows. She hummed in disgust and gently pushed away the young man's busy hands. She said in a trembling voice, "Then don't touch me."

Jia Heng paused for a moment and said, "Ruoqing, I won't do anything else but warm my hands."

How can we survive in such a cold day without a hand warmer?

The beauty snorted softly, knowing the man's preference, which was to be here, and for a moment she was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Jia Heng spoke softly, and then he put his hand into the beautiful woman's clothes, and felt the softness and plumpness, which made him very happy.

Gu Ruoqing's beautiful cheeks were blushing like clouds, her dark eyebrows were as dark as willows, and her beautiful eyes were as clear as water, as if filled with charming waves.

The beauty curved her eyebrows, pursed her lips, and said softly, "After returning to Beijing this time, how are you going to place me?"

Jia Heng pondered for a moment and said softly, "I have several villas in the capital, you can live in them."

Gu Ruoqing's plump, fair face gradually turned red, and her beautiful eyes beneath her brows showed traces of shame and annoyance. She said, "It is indeed not appropriate for me to come to your house."

Feeling the jealousy on the corner of the beauty's mouth, Jia Heng said gently: "What I mean is that we can stay together forever when the world is peaceful in the future. It will be useless for you to go there now."

Gu Ruoqing responded softly, and then the beautiful woman's plump and soft body trembled. Her snow-white face was already rosy, bright and beautiful, and she said in a trembling voice: "What are you doing?"

An inexplicable feeling of shame and annoyance surged between Gu Ruoqing's pretty eyebrows. Just admire the moon, why lift her skirt?

Do you still want to bully her at this time?

This scene of heaven and earth...what a disgrace!

When the beautiful lady thought of this, she felt an inexplicable surge of excitement in her heart and her heart began to beat rapidly.

She had known about his absurdity for a long time, and he had often tormented her. Could it be that he regarded her as a prostitute who used her beauty to please men?

Jia Heng nodded and said, "Ruoqing, I've been missing you these days."

"It's a bit cold now." Gu Ruoqing said softly, tightening her collar.

……,……

Gu Ruoqing's cheeks flushed, her body trembled slightly, and she shouted, "Stop it."

Jia Heng leaned close to the beautiful woman's ear, and whispered with a hint of inexplicable meaning in his voice: "Ruoqing, you miss me now, too, right?"

Gu Ruoqing's cheeks paused slightly, she snorted, and said clearly: "You are a pervert!"

This guy is simply a devil. What kind of place is this? How dare he humiliate her like this?

Jia Heng didn't say much, just whispered to her, "Ruoqing, the White Lotus Rebellion started in Shandong, and I wiped out the White Lotus Sect. Did the remnants hide in the capital?"

Gu Ruoqing's cheeks were red as she blushed, and her voice was trembling as she said, "Master was personally responsible for these matters. Many elders were killed at that time. I don't know much about other things."

Jia Heng asked, "Then do you know how much White Lotus power Chen Yuan and your master still have?"

At this moment, Gu Ruoqing frowned, opened her lips, and her crystal clear teeth were sparkling like flawless gems.

At this moment, in the air, with the help of the chilly spring breeze, one could vaguely hear the sound of the night watchman beating the night watch in the royal capital city.

Jia Heng frowned, looked deeply, and thought to himself, it's really unique...

Gently hugging the beautiful woman's plump waist, smelling the subtle fragrance from the back of her neck, I feel my mind drifting away.

The joy of this matter lies in training a cold-spoken woman of the underworld to be obedient.

Jia Heng said softly, "Ruoqing, do you still remember what happened in Jiangnan?"

Gu Ruoqing's face flushed slightly, and she said in a trembling voice, "It was so long ago, I don't remember, why are you asking this out of the blue?"

At this moment, Jia Heng's eyes were slow and his eyebrows were deep. He said softly: "I just want to talk about it. When did you fall in love with me?"

Gu Ruoqing: “…”

If you hadn't been so obsessed with her, how could Gu Ruoqing... fall in love with you?

He snorted lightly, and ignored Jia Heng, allowing the young man to toy with him.

However, the occasional sound of clappers from afar also made the beautiful lady's heart pound.

This guy is really ridiculous.

No wonder some people in the capital said that although he was the best in both civil and military affairs since the founding of the country, he was also the first in the country to be so lustful and licentious.

It would not be surprising if he died in a woman's belly one day.

Jia Heng felt the... nervousness and a little weirdness in the beauty's heart.

Compared to usual, Gu Ruoqing indeed had a different and indescribable charm.

And as time went by, Gu Ruoqing had turned the tables and was getting better and better.

Jia Heng looked at the bright moon, which was big and round.

At this moment, Gu Ruoqing's beautiful and cold eyes were covered with traces of shame and anger, and her crystal-clear pearly teeth bit her pink lips and said angrily: "You just like to humiliate others."

Jia Heng chuckled and said, "How did I humiliate you? I was admiring the moon, do you think I'm still moving?"

Gu Ruoqing: “…”

So it was her?

At this moment, the beauty suddenly woke up and realized that after all the fuss she had been making, she had just been spinning in circles.

This... this is so embarrassing.

Jia Heng gently embraced the beauty's delicate body and said with a smile: "So who is it..."

When Gu Ruoqing heard that, her fair face suddenly flushed, and her flawless face became hot as fire. She gently pinched the young man's thigh.

If he hadn't been fooling around, why would she be making such a fuss?

Jia Heng chuckled and said, "Ruoqing, just admit it, it was you..."

"Shut up." The beauty was furious at this moment. It was obvious that she was extremely embarrassed. Her voice, which had been fluctuating, clearly trembled.

Jia Heng said softly, "Let's go over there and take in the view."

Gu Ruoqing was about to say something when he saw that the young man had already grabbed his knees with both hands and was heading towards the city wall not far away.

Fortunately, there is no one here.

At this moment, at a corner of the city wall, Gu Ruoqing was being held, and in front of him were the lights of thousands of homes in Wangjing City. The houses were lined up one after another, and the lights were dotted everywhere.

There seemed to be faint noise in the streets and the sound of dogs barking, mixed together, making people feel slightly uneasy.

Jia Heng raised his sword-like eyebrows, his clear eyes showed a hint of amusement, and he said softly: "Ruoqing, what do you think?"

This was a new version of the ship that Gu Ruoqing had never experienced before. He remembered that the last time he was with Tianniu on the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, he pointed in the direction of the imperial palace and asked Tianniu in her ear.

At this moment, Gu Ruoqing's slender eyebrows were tightly furrowed, her beautiful eyes were as clear as water, and her heart was trembling slightly.

This scoundrel is truly her destiny.

Jia Heng said: "Ruoqing."

Gu Ruoqing was speechless at this moment. She just narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, her face flushed with anger...

Jia Heng knew that Gu Ruoqing was feeling shy, so he didn't continue teasing her.

For a moment, only the sound of bamboo joints breaking could be heard in the empty city wall, which made Gu Ruoqing feel ashamed and angry.

There is no doubt that Jia Heng's silence made Gu Ruoqing even more embarrassed and annoyed.

This person just buries his head in hard work... and doesn't even know how to say a word.

Gu Ruoqing hummed in a sweet voice, which seemed to carry an inexplicable and strange charm, and that beautiful Ruoxia's face seemed to be covered with a layer of rosy red, and her back was already sweaty.

Jia Heng leaned close to the beautiful lady's ear and said, "Ruoqing, call me husband."

Gu Ruoqing: “…”

This person is taking advantage of the situation, right?

She absolutely could not call him that, at least before she got married, she really could not call him that, it was too intimate.

Gu Ruoqing's crystal-clear face, as white as jade, was covered with a blush, and she said angrily, "Don't mess around..."

Jia Heng nodded and said, "Then let's stand like this for a while."

Having said that, the six armies were helpless.

Gu Ruoqing: “???”

Aren’t you cold being blown by the cold wind like this?

At this moment, both of them were actually wearing clothes, which could protect them from the cold wind and they were not too affected by the cold.

Gu Ruoqing felt that she could not resist the young man in the python costume. She suppressed the feeling of shyness or anger in her heart and called out softly, "Husband."

However, it was as if the fuse of a red cannon had been lit, and that man was undoubtedly even more fierce.

Jia Heng's expression paused slightly, and then he carried Gu Ruoqing, who was as soft as a silkworm, back to the pavilion with double eaves and hooked corners.

Gu Ruoqing's bright and beautiful face flushed bright red as she said, "You...you..."

She really didn't know what to say?

Jia Heng sighed, looking somewhat sad, and said, "Since Ruoqing doesn't like it, I won't do this again in the future."

"No... I didn't..." The beautiful lady snorted and couldn't help but say.

"Oh? So Ruoqing also likes this?" Jia Heng's eyes showed a hint of amusement, and he whispered in the beautiful woman's ear.

Sure enough, some things are women’s instincts, but this kind of contrast is invisible and difficult for ordinary people to touch.

Gu Ruoqing's beautiful and bright face was already blushing, and she spat in a low voice: "You are a scoundrel."

Jia Heng looked intently at the trembling beauty under his sword-like brows, and a strange feeling arose in his heart.

This is almost ruined, right?

This look of half anger and half joy seemed like he was immersed in it and had not yet subsided.

Jia Heng said softly: "Okay, wait until next time, you can denounce it again, we will see each other next time."

Gu Ruoqing uttered "hmm" in a voice as light as a mosquito, and then her snow-white face turned red with shame, like clouds and brocade, and then she bit Jia Heng's neck viciously.

Jia Heng then returned to the office, holding the beautiful woman's slender hand.
