The Red Mansions

Chapter 1314 Jia Heng: You should have your whole heart (please give me your monthly vote!)

Shenjing, Ningguo Mansion

While the two were talking, a maid entered the hall and announced, "Master, Second Mistress Lian is here."

Jia Heng slowly put down the tea cup in his hand. The fragrant tea rippled in circles and the fragrance overflowed.

After a while, before anyone arrived, I heard laughter first, and then the sound of jingling rings came from a distance.

After a while, I saw Sister Feng, dressed in a peach red dress and with a green bun in the clouds, coming quickly, and her gorgeous jade face was full of prosperous smiles. As soon as she opened her mouth, cherry blossoms were already blooming, and she said: "Heng Brother, I’m free right now.”

Jia Heng nodded and said hello: "Sister-in-law Feng, good morning."

But while Sister Feng was speaking, she walked closer, with a bright smile on her pretty face, and said: "Brother Heng, I just want to tell you that the servants in the garden have begun to prepare for the wedding. There are purchasing rules everywhere. The items have almost been compiled into a volume, please take a look at it when you have time."

As he said that, he asked Ping'er beside him to hand over a book.

Jia Heng reached out to take it, then flipped through it, handed it to Sister Feng, and said, "Sister-in-law Feng took care of it in an orderly manner, and everything was done properly and thoroughly."

"Brother Heng, it's fine if there's nothing wrong with you." Sister Feng smiled brightly, nodded slightly, and whispered: "Brother Heng, my brother has come to the capital. He said when he will be free, please invite Brother Heng. Let’s have a drink and thank Brother Heng for introducing him to the sea trade business.”

Sister Feng is not aware of the despicable conduct of her natal brother Wang Ren, and still regards her natal brother as a relative.

At first, Wang Ren wanted to find a way to do some business in the capital, so he asked Jia Heng to work for him. Now Wang Ren has obviously taken advantage of the boom in maritime trade and made a lot of money.

Now that Jia Heng is a first-class Duke and an important minister in the court, he naturally wants to come over to consolidate the relationship between the two.

Jia Heng thought for a while and said, "I'll see him when I have free time in the next few days."

When Sister Feng heard this, she felt that she had gained some luck. A smile spread across her face that was more delicate than flowers, and she said, "Brother Heng, I've been waiting for your words."

It was not in vain that she allowed him to do what he did. Previously, it was waterway and...

This enemy is real.

Of course, Sister Feng also knew that her brother Wang Ren was a bit of a philistine and could not get on the stage, but he was her biological brother after all. Besides, if she could invite Jia Heng, an important military official, Sister Feng would also have face.

Under Jia Heng's sharp eyebrows, he looked at the beauty with a delicate neck and asked, "Sister-in-law Feng, we need Sister-in-law Feng to take care of the arrangements for the big wedding in the house these days."

Under Sister Feng's eyebrows, her pink and phoenix eyes are full of smiles, her gorgeous face is rosy, and her icy skin is as bright as snow. She said softly: "Brother Heng, don't worry, then the marriage will definitely be done well." All right."

Jia Heng's eyes moved slightly, nodded to Sister Feng, and said, "Then there is Sister-in-law Lao Feng."

In fact, he was not really worried about Sister Feng's ability to do things, although the ability in the original work was more reflected in the trivial affairs of Ning Guo Mansion.

But the happy events are pretty much the same.

While Sister Feng was talking to Jia Heng, suddenly, a nun came from outside and said, "Sir, someone from outside posted a post saying that someone from the Prince of Chu's Palace sent a post."

As he spoke, he handed over an envelope in his hand.

Jia Heng took the opened copy and lowered his eyes to read it. There was a line of small words written on it, a message from King Chu Chen Qin and Princess Chu Zhen Qing inviting him to the palace as a guest.

Sister Feng was surprised for a moment. Under her raised eyebrows, curiosity filled Danfeng's eyes and she said, "Brother Heng, what's going on?"

Jia Heng put the invitation back into the envelope and said, "The King of Chu invited me to bring Lan'er and Xi'er as guests."

Sister Feng said: "Then..."

Jia Heng was silent for a moment and said, "Let's go there tomorrow. They are brothers-in-law, so they should move around more frequently."

After all, we are kindred spirits.

Today I have to go to Li Wan's place, but Chai Dai is not in a hurry. They can get married on September 9th, the Double Ninth Festival.

Of course, Baoqin still needs to talk to him.

Well, this makes it like a time management guru.

Sister Feng's beautiful eyes were charming and she said softly: "Brother Heng, I have other things to do. I want to ask Brother Heng alone for advice. I wonder if Brother Heng is still free these two days?"

Jia Heng: "..."

Didn't Sister Feng have enough obsession the day before yesterday? How long ago did she start making noises for food again?

Jia Heng said: "Let's wait for two days, I'm still a little busy today."

He also wanted to go see Bao Qin and Li Wan, and go around and talk about his thoughts after leaving, so that he could meet his individual customized needs.

"Okay, then it'll be two days later." Sister Feng's bright and clear eyes rolled, and then she said no more.

She also needs to make a careful plan with Sister-in-law Zhu to give this enemy a surprise.

Jia Heng stayed in the hall for a while, chatting with Qingwen, and then returned to the backyard to see Qin Keqing without saying much.

I had told Keqing before that when I came back, I would definitely spend more time with her and Fu'er.

In the backyard, in the hall——

Qin Keqing was wearing a goose-yellow palace dress with a towering bun. She was sitting on a soft couch, holding her daughter Jia Fu in a lotus white dress.

The little girl is now stretching out her two soft little hands, shaking the rattle in her hand, and the sound of the drum sounds softly, fine and clear.

The little girl's face was flushed, her eyebrows were smiling, and she was giggling non-stop.

Princess Xianning now had a smile on her face. She stretched out her hand to peel a banana. When she opened her mouth, her soft voice was like flowing jade from a spring. She chuckled and said, "Fu'er, eat the banana."

Qin Keqing's plump cheeks were like hibiscus flowers, and her smile was as bright as the bright spring in March. She said softly: "Xianning, she is still young, so you can't feed her too much. It won't be easy for her to digest. "

It feels like Xianning cares more about Fu'er than she does. Since she likes her so much, why not have a child with Ziyu herself?

Because the child of Princess Xianning belongs to the Ningguo lineage, not the Weiguogong lineage, it does not occupy Jia Heng's title.

Qin Keqing was actually not that anxious.

At this moment, the maid's voice came from outside. There was a sense of joy in her voice, and she said: "Grandma, the uncle is here."

At this moment, Qin Keqing almost stood up from the chair. Under her beautiful eyebrows, a hint of curiosity appeared in her shining eyes, and asked: "Husband, isn't he busy in front?"

Anyway, her husband always sticks to her the first night he comes back, and then he doesn't look for her much, so she has almost gotten used to it.

Jia Heng smiled and said, "I'm busy in the front yard. Come and see you and Fu'er."

After saying that, he walked up to his daughter, picked up the little girl in the floral dress, and said, "Fu'er, do you miss daddy?"

"Daddy~~" The little girl's eyebrows were full of joy, she smiled softly and said softly.

The little girl is a little older, already a lot more knowledgeable than usual, and can speak more words than Mo'er in the backyard.

Jia Heng smiled softly and said, "Fu'er, come here and let daddy give you a good hug."

As he said that, he picked up the little girl. Before he touched his daughter, he heard a "bah" sound. It was clear that the little girl had kissed him on the face, showing affection.

Then the little girl clearly giggled non-stop.

Princess Xianning smiled and joked, "This girl likes to kiss her father."

Jia Heng kissed the little girl's pink cheek, and Qing Jun's face was filled with joy. She asked with a smile: "Fu'er, do you like daddy more, or mommy more?"

"Mom." Jia Fu's voice was soft and sweet, and then she stretched out her little hand to hug Qin Keqing.

Jia Heng: "..."

I really can’t have this child.

Seeing the confused look on the young man's face, Qin Keqing couldn't help laughing, chuckled, and said, "Fu'er was brought up by me, so she deserves to be kissed by me."

Jia Heng chuckled lightly and said, "That's true."

Princess Xianning turned her eyes to look at the happy family of three. Under her beautiful eyebrows, her eyes flashed, and her heart suddenly felt sour.

Li Chanyue and Song Yan looked at the two of them silently, with their clear and soft eyes flashing, as if they were quietly filled with envy.

And Youshi, who was talking to the side, was stunned with her elegant and graceful face.

She hasn't seen him for a year, and she doesn't know when she will be able to...have a child.

Jia Heng turned to look at Xian Ning, who was slightly absent-minded, and said with a smile: "Xian Ning, what are you thinking about, so lost in thought?"

No need to guess, he knew what Xianning was thinking at the moment. He just wanted a child. In fact, he no longer wanted to control it when he came back this time.

As the saying goes, we should put our best efforts into fulfilling the dreams of the beautiful mothers in the backyard.

Princess Xianning returned to her thoughts. Under her cold and narrow eyebrows, her bright eyes were almost as moist as water. She said softly: "Sir, it seems that Sister Xiaoxiao is not here today."

Jia Heng thought for a while, chuckled, and said warmly: "Sister Xiaoxiao, you should be preparing for the wedding these days. There are still a lot of things in the house."

Princess Xianning smiled and said, "Sir, how about I go to the palace to talk to my mother and let my cousin Yan'er's marriage be finalized with my husband?"

Jia Heng looked at Song Yan, whose cheeks were as red as a blush from embarrassment not far away, and said, "It's better to settle it together."

While everyone was talking like this, it was already noon before they knew it, and Qin Keqing began to order people to prepare meals.

Qin Keqing said softly: "Husband, Jingqing's side is getting married."

Jia Heng said: "Well, when did it happen?"

During the year he went to Japan, all personnel and affairs in the capital were naturally not static, and everything was proceeding in an orderly manner. In other words, everyone is the protagonist of his own life, they just happen to come together to build a stage for him.

Qin Keqing's face was as red as drunkenness, she snorted softly and said: "In May of this year, the candidate was the granddaughter of Zhao Yi's family, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and she has been married now."

Jia Heng nodded and said: "It would be better to start a family early. How is his study? Has he ever been selected as a scholar?"

Mentioning this matter, Qin Keqing sighed and said softly: "I don't know yet, I'm still taking exams now. After polishing my body and bones with a martial arts instructor, I became more and more interested in martial arts, but I didn't really want to study in literature. ”

Then, as the mammy and maids brought dishes after dishes, Jia Heng, Princess Xianning, Princess Qinghe and others sat down and started eating.

After dinner, Jia Heng thought for a while, then left the hall and walked along the Chaoshou verandah, preparing to go to the Grand View Garden to find Chai and Dai.

On Jia Heng's side, not far away, he saw Youshi, who was wearing a blue dress. Accompanied by her maid Yindie, holding a handkerchief in her hand, she walked through a moon gate with green eaves and white walls. , seemed to be going back to the room to rest for the afternoon, and asked: "Sister-in-law You, where are you going?"

Youshi turned her eyes to look at the person who came, her pink and plump face was obviously a little red with embarrassment, and her soft voice trembled slightly as she said, "Brother Heng."

Jia Heng said: "Let's go together and look for Third Sister."

It’s time to go and see the third sister. I didn’t see the third sister and the second sister in the hall just now.

Perhaps it was because of Xianning's arrival that the third sister felt ashamed.

Since all the women are either princesses or princesses, the third sister will inevitably have random thoughts and create a lot of drama for herself.

At this moment, in the backyard, the courtyard where Sanjie You is—

Sanjie You is currently holding a piece of Qiuchang, her fingers are nimble, and she seems to be sewing something. Her beautiful and charming face is full of concentration.

Second Sister You said softly: "Sister Qin's place is more lively. She always avoids her, which makes us seem a little frivolous."

Compared with Third Sister You's thoughts, Second Sister is undoubtedly simpler and more down-to-earth. Her beautiful and beautiful face is full of happiness and sweetness after being accepted into the house.

Third Sister You couldn't help but frown her beautiful eyebrows, her charming eyes were as moist as water, and she said softly: "I am a noble person, a relative of the emperor, and we are chatting and laughing together. If you’re a human being, don’t go there and make people uncomfortable.”

Second Sister You pursed her pink lips and said softly: "Third Sister, you can't say that. I see that Princess Xianning is very kind to others and doesn't boss her around."

"In the eyes of others, what's the difference between us and those prostitutes who serve people with sex?" Third Sister You said softly as she bit off the thread on the clothes in her hand, a blush appearing on her jade face.

At this moment, a clear voice came from outside: "Who said that? Why didn't I know?"

"Uncle, you are here." As Sister You spoke, she looked at the young man in python suit. His beautiful and beautiful face was full of joy, and his beautiful eyes were almost filled with wisps of hazy mist. .

It can be said that women are only in love with 2% of men who have a head, and Jia Heng naturally belongs to these 2%.

Jia Heng nodded, stretched out his hand and gently held Second Sister You's soft, smooth hand, with warm eyes, and said with a smile: "Second Sister, long time no see."

When I came back earlier, although I had already met the second sister and the third sister, my mind was still more focused on Keqing and Fu'er at that time, and I never had a chance to talk alone.

Second Sister You said "Hmm" under Liu Ye's slender eyebrows, but she saw the young man hugging her.

Third Sister You also put down the clothes in her hands. Under her curved eyebrows, her beautiful eyes were shining brightly.

Uncle Heng came to look for her.

……

……

……

Let’s not mention for the moment Jia Heng’s conversation with the three sisters of the You family in Jia Mansion, but talk about the city of Jingjing and Da’anfang——

A brothel with a plaque of "Ruyi Building" is built on the street and stands tall. At this moment, the wine stick on a flagpole is swaying in the wind, and there is an endless stream of cars and horses below, and from time to time, the hawking of small merchants can be heard. Voice.

And in a beautifully decorated box on the third floor, the green bricks and black tiles on both sides have become increasingly green and eye-catching after the rain.

Chen Yuan, the son of King Zhao, looked coldly at the bustling crowd below with his slightly sinister and sharp eyes, like an eagle.

Ruan Yongde whispered from the side: "Your Highness, I have made it clear that the princess is in the Zhou Palace at the moment."

Chen Yuan looked livid and said softly: "You'd better not mention her in front of me!"

He went through life and death in the outside world, running around and working hard for his father's hatred, while she was in the capital with Jia Heng's son, spending time in front of and under the moon, you and me.

Now that they are married, it won't be long before they have children for Jia Heng's son, right?

"Young Master, calm down." Ruan Yongde frowned and persuaded in a low voice, "Sir, the princess has finally gotten close to that person. If there are changes in the future, she can inform His Highness."

Chen Yuan's expression was extremely gloomy, his sword eyebrows were furrowed with a cold air, and his cold and clear eyes flickered, but he felt that this statement was reasonable.

Ruan Yongde pondered for a moment and said, "Sir, do you want to attack that person during the wedding?"

Once the assassination attempt on Jia Heng is successful, the entire Han Dynasty will inevitably be in chaos.

Chen Yuan frowned and said, "Don't act rashly yet. That kid is skilled in bow and horse and has a careful mind. He is not that easy to assassinate."

While the two were talking, they heard conversations coming from outside. They stretched out their hands to invite you and said, "Girl, please invite me to the inner room."

The woman gave a soft "hmm", then walked around a screen, opened the bead curtain that blocked her sight, and entered the box.

The beauty was graceful and quiet. When she raised her eyes, she saw Chen Yuan sitting by the window.

The gloomy look on Chen Yuan's calm face disappeared, and he whispered: "Ruoqing, you are here."

The visitor was none other than Gu Ruoqing, who had been lingering in Beijing for a long time.

Gu Ruoqing's jade face had a cold temperament, and her brows and eyes were full of a lonely heroic spirit. She said warmly: "Master Zhao."

Chen Yuan stretched out his hand to invite you, with an enthusiastic expression on his face, and said, "Ruoqing, sit down."

With that said, he signaled Ruan Yongde to leave the wing, go to the door, and stand at the door watching the wind.

Gu Ruoqing sat down and said, "Master Zhao sent someone to invite me. I don't know why?"

Chen Yuan said: "Ruo Qing is going to run for the position of Oiran in the capital recently?"

Gu Ruoqing said: "Recently, the thirty-six brothels in Beijing are selecting oirans."

Chen Yuan nodded and asked softly: "Has Ruo Qing met the master before?"

The master is naturally the Holy Mother of White Lotus - the Fairy of the Alarm Fantasy.

Gu Ruoqing said: "We met once before. Master is fine. There is no need to worry too much about Mr. Zhao."

Chen Yuan nodded, his face gradually turned sad, and he seemed to sigh, and said: "I didn't expect that the situation in Shandong would be so corrupted, and that all the years of hard work would be wasted."

Gu Ruoqing said: "This has all passed, Mr. Zhao, there is no need to worry too much."

Chen Yuan softly said "hmm" and asked, "Ruo Qing, now Xiaoxiao is with Duke Wei, what's going on?"

Gu Ruoqing's eyebrows were curved, with a look of contemplation in his eyes, and he said softly: "Master said earlier that it would be good to follow the Duke of Wei. At least you can detect what's going on in the capital and the palace in advance."

Chen Yuan nodded and said softly: "Master, are there any new developments?"

Gu Ruoqing shook his head slightly and said, "That's not true, but..."

Chen Yuan said: "But what?"

Gu Ruoqing whispered: "That person's dragon body is hesitant and seems to be unable to hold on."

When Chen Yuan heard this, he was overjoyed and said softly: "What do you mean?"

Gu Ruoqing said in a low voice: "That man became ill due to overwork, and now he has asked the imperial doctor in the palace to prescribe ginseng to prolong his life, but his body is getting worse and worse."

When Chen Yuan heard this, he was very excited and said with emotion: "God is really helping me."

A plan gradually took shape in my mind.

Gu Ruoqing's beautiful eyebrows curved and she said softly: "He has several vassal kings, so it's not a difficult matter."

Chen Yuan's eyes were filled with coldness, and he said coldly: "Then let him have none!"

Gu Ruoqing could not help but shake his head secretly when he saw Chen Yuan's face filled with anger.

For some reason, a clear face of a young man suddenly appeared in his mind, with stern brows and eyes, like blades.

I don’t know what happened to her, but since arriving in Shenjing, she has always thought of him frequently.

"Ruoqing." Chen Yuan called out, waking up Gu Ruoqing who was in a trance.

Gu Ruoqing's stunned expression recovered, and he looked at Chen Yuan with a slight movement of his eyes, asking, "Does Mr. Zhao have anything else to do?"

Chen Yuan smiled and asked: "Ruoqing, it's noon, how about having some lunch together?"

Gu Ruoqing said: "I have other things to do, so there's no need."

How could she not know what the person in front of her was thinking about her?
