Chapter 371 Gold hairpins gather in Tianxianglou, Zhu Fangzhengyan is not winter

Tian Xiang Lou

Yuan Chun approached with a smile. The girl was in her twenties, with a beautiful appearance and a plump figure. Under Qin Keqing's greeting, she sat down next to Jia Heng.

At this moment, the seating order of the people is not strict, they are scattered and sitting casually.

Probably Qin Keqing was sitting with Sister Feng and Li Wan, Second Sister You and Third Sister You were sitting next to Sister Feng, and Yingchun was sitting next to Li Wan, followed by Tanchun, Baochai, Xiangyun, Daiyu, Jia Heng.

The surrounding maids and mother-in-law are serving.

As for Xichun, she didn't come.

Qin Keqing said with a smile: "Eldest sister just came back from the princess mansion, is the eldest princess easy to get along with?"

Yuan Chun raised her beautiful eyes, and looked at the smiling girl opposite, feeling a little unnatural in her heart, but recalling the scene she had secretly seen at the Princess Mansion earlier, her heart trembled slightly, and she hurriedly dispelled some thoughts, and said softly: " The eldest princess is dignified and generous, with a gentle disposition, and she treats people gently and kindly."

Sister Feng laughed and said: "Compared to ordinary people, the princess is a first-class noble lady in the world. It's really rare to be so easy to get along with."

Qin Keqing smiled, and said casually, "I heard that the eldest princess lives with a little princess, and the little princess is the same age as sister Xue, so she should be easy to get along with?"

Jia Heng's expression remained unchanged, but his heart couldn't help but move. He smelled something unusual, and said, "Princess Qinghe probably lost her father when she was young. She has a quiet temperament and doesn't talk much on weekdays."

Yuan Chun said in a soft voice: "It's okay, I chatted with her yesterday, and she is also a lady who is well-educated and respected."

Jia Heng looked at Yuan Chun, and said, "Perhaps the eldest sister is understanding and understanding, the little princess is willing to talk to the eldest sister."

It was more like Jia Heng didn't understand the temperament of the little princess at all.

But because Yuan Chun was beating the side drums, it seemed more like Yuan Chun was helping Jia Hengyuan.

Yuan Chun said softly, "Brother Heng was joking."

Qin Keqing said with a smile: "Husband, you said that after the New Year, do you need to buy a gift for the eldest princess's house?"

At least it can be ruled out, but not necessarily, Xu is the maid of the eldest princess's mansion.

I remember the last time someone called Lianxue came.

As for the eldest princess of Jinyang, Qin Keqing couldn't think of it at all, because in his mind, how old should the eldest princess be with a daughter who is as old as Xue's younger sister?

Although she is not as old as Mrs. Wang, she also looks like an old lady like Aunt Xue.

She can be her husband's mother-in-law.

Maybe a widowed lady to raise her head?

That's even more needless to think about it, her husband would rather die than be willing to degenerate.

If it was the maidservant of the eldest princess's mansion, she would not need to be so vigilant, lest the husband and wife would have a rift in their hearts.

It's just that my heart is somewhat sour. The Youshi sisters, who are good at home, want to find other women outside?

Is it true that as the book says, a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as stealing?

Jia Heng smiled and said: "It's fine, it's not too late to go on the fifth day of the lunar new year, but I just need to go to the palace to pay my respects to the Queen during the New Year."

Hearing the conversation between the husband and wife, Daiyu's bright eyes flashed thoughtful. I don't know if she was thinking too much, but she always felt that there was something unusual in the calm and unwavering words.

Baochai on the side, her apricot eyes flashed, also thinking a little bit.

Jia Heng asked the nurse at the side, "Why didn't Sister Xichun come over?"

Xichun has a withdrawn personality, and rarely participates in some group activities of the female family members of Jia's family in the original work.

When everyone heard the words, they found that only Xichun was missing, so they all stopped their chopsticks.

Qin Keqing smiled softly: "I just sent someone to call her, but she hasn't come yet, Baozhu, go and call her again."

Baozhu responded and hurried to go.

Not long after, Xichun, under the service of the maids Ruhua, Caiping, and Cai'er, came to the second floor of Tianxiang Building lightly, and greeted several people.

"Brother Heng, sister-in-law, big sister..."

Qin Keqing smiled and said, "Just now your brother said, why are you here now?"

"Just now I was talking with Master Miaoyu, it's a bit late." Xichun said softly.

Originally, she didn't want to come, but after hearing Brother Heng calling for someone to come over, she couldn't bear to come.

Xiangyun's chubby face showed a naive and radiant smile, and said: "Fourth sister, it's almost time to go now, come over and eat the meat, I'm almost finished roasting it, come here, I'll roast the biggest piece for you to eat .”

As he said, he turned over the venison with a fork, and sprinkled some chili, salt and other things on it.

Daiyu laughed and said, "Sister Yun, if you say you are a cook, others will believe you."

Seeing this, everyone laughed.

Xiangyun pouted, and said with a smile on his face: "Our girl from a poor family has been in charge of the house for a long time, and she can't compare to Sister Lin, Miss Qianjin, who doesn't touch Yangchun water with her ten fingers, and brother Heng will do it for her when she cooks meat. .”

Dai Yuqiu's water star eyes narrowed slightly, and she smiled self-consciously: "I'm not working hard, and I can't distinguish the five grains."

Tanchun chuckled softly, "Sister Lin, Sister Yun is talking about us all when she jokes."

Jia Heng listened to Yun and Dai's bickering, and Tanchun was helping, and couldn't help but smiled slightly, but couldn't help but think of the original work. Daiyu said, "Lu Xue'an was robbed, and I will cry a lot for Lu Xue'an", and then Xiang Yun retorted, "Fake Qinggao, we ate venison, and we still have a beautiful heart."

The two had always bickered, and everyone didn't take the little girl's bickering words to heart.

Jia Heng smiled and said, "Is it ready? I'll try Sister Yun's cooking."

Xiang Yun took a plate, brought the venison over, and said with a smile: "Brother Heng, this is for you."

Tanchun smiled and said, "Brother Heng, this smells more fragrant when it's roasted."

Jia Heng picked up the chopsticks and used them together, got up, and said with a smile: "You guys rinse first, and I will roast a piece too."

Sure enough, Xiangyun's roasting is not satisfactory, some are cooked and some are raw, so it is easy to spoil the stomach.

When everyone saw this, they were shocked.

But after thinking about it, since it was a banquet at home, it shouldn't be anything, and Jia Heng is not a pampered son or brother.

Qin Keqing smiled and said, "Let's cook the meat too."

As he said, he picked up the chopsticks, picked up the meat slices and put them in the soup pot.

Everyone imitated Qin Keqing and picked up the meat slices with their chopsticks and placed them in the soup pot.

After a while, Jia Heng finished roasting the meat, divided it into several plates for Qingwen, and said: "Bring them over, except for sister Lin, each of them has a piece."

Then, holding a plate, he handed it to Qin Keqing, and said warmly: "Keqing, try it and see how I bake it."

Hearing this, Qin Keqing raised her gorgeous and gorgeous face, looked at the young man holding the plate in his hand, couldn't help feeling sweetness in her heart, took it with both hands and said, "Husband, I'm ready."

The trace of grievance that still remained in my heart completely disappeared.

Everyone saw it and had different thoughts.

Tanchun chuckled lightly and said: "In ancient times, there was a case that raised eyebrows, but now Brother Heng personally honors it. If it is spread, it will be a good story through the ages."

When Sister Feng saw it, her expression was not without envy, but after a while, she couldn't help but sighed softly when she remembered something.

Xiang Yun was eating a piece of venison at this time, and said with a smile: "Brother Heng's cooking skills are really good, don't look at it, try it all."

Everyone smiled and picked up the chopsticks and started to move.

Jia Heng sat next to Xichun and Daiyu again, and said to Daiyu: "Sister Lin, venison is not easy to digest, so eat less later."

"Well, thank you Brother Heng." Daiyu lowered her eyebrows and said softly.

Everyone happily ate the venison, and before noon was over, they came to the window of the Tianxiang Tower to look at the scenery in the garden.

Xiangyun rubbed his belly with his little hands, and smiled naively: "Brother Heng, I'm holding on."

Jia Heng said: "Just now I told you not to eat so much, but if you use so much, you will make your stomach full. Let's take a walk in the garden later, so as not to accumulate food."

"I don't want to eat so much, who made this venison so delicious." Xiang Yun said with a light smile.

Everyone laughed at his childish words.

All of a sudden, the entire Tianxiang Building was full of joy and laughter, and the atmosphere of youth and beauty overflowed in the Tianxiang Building in the winter afternoon.

Being in the midst of it, Jia Heng's face was slightly absent-minded, and it was inevitable that there would be a sense of joy spontaneously.

The gold hairpins gather in Tianxiang Tower, and the beauty of all the women is not winter.

……

……

The night was dark, it was midnight, but the study room in the Daming Palace was lit like daylight, a thin and majestic figure was writing at his desk.

Emperor Chongping rubbed his sore wrist, put down the brush in his hand, suddenly felt something, looked up, and saw a gold hairpin pinned between the lush temple hair, wearing a light red embroidered peony dress, with a graceful temperament The gorgeous beauty came slowly and asked, "Zitong, it's so late, why don't you go and take a rest?"

"Seeing that the Daming Palace lanterns are still on, come over and have a look." Empress Song Yanmei smiled sweetly, her voice was like a spring of broken jade: "Your Majesty, there are still a few days left, and it will be Chinese New Year, so you shouldn't be so tired."

"It's not easy to worry about the New Year!" Emperor Chongping picked up a few memorials in his hand, and said coldly: "I don't know where the censor has heard the rumors these days, saying that the military parade will waste the people and waste money, so I advise you to go here." Nian, sincerity is the theory of corrupt Confucians!"

As he said that, You couldn't help but throw several memorials on the ground.

Seeing this, Empress Song kept her gentle eyes, bent over and bent her knees, and went to pick up the memorial. Yiren was tall and slender, with exquisite curves, under the lights at the moment, because her waist was so bent, her pink skirt couldn't cover her The rounded and plump body highlighted the front of the imperial court, picked up a few memorials, and said softly: "Your Majesty, calm down."

Emperor Chongping was unmoved by the beauty of the talent, and said coldly: "Nowadays the country's military affairs are sluggish, they are still so stubborn in their views on civil and military affairs, it's hard to say how pedantic they are."

He also has some guesses about the people behind the impeachment of Jia Heng and Li Zan.

I don't even know what he is thinking!

Empress Song stacked up the memorials and placed them in the corner of the imperial case. She walked behind Emperor Chongping, pinched Emperor Chongping's shoulders, and said, "Your Majesty, each court held its own opinion. , even if there are one or two fierce and pedantic remarks, His Majesty must not be angry with himself."

Emperor Chongping waved his hand, seemingly unaware of the intoxicating sweet fragrance emanating from the beauty behind him, his face was gloomy and uncertain: "I have a proposition."

After all, it is an old husband and wife, and they have given birth to two children, so it has long lost the freshness of the past.

Empress Song nodded her head, with regret in her eyes, and said softly: "Your Majesty, why don't you come here first and review tomorrow."

Emperor Chongping said: "Zitong go and rest first, I will review these memorials again, this is an urgent task at the end of the year."

Empress Song sighed deeply in her heart, but she smiled softly on her beautiful face, and said: "The concubine is retiring, Your Majesty still needs to take care of the dragon's body and rest earlier."

His Majesty dealt with state affairs day and night, taking care of his clothes and food, but he ignored the daily affairs of the world for several months.

Although she is the mother of the world, she is... also a woman.

Emperor Chongping waved his hand, signaling Empress Song to go back and rest first.

At this moment, Dai Quan hurried in from the outside, and when he saw Empress Song, he quickly knelt down and saluted, "Your servant has seen your empress."

Empress Song nodded to Dai Quan, without saying much, walked around the screen and walked outside.

However, as soon as he reached the threshold, he suddenly heard a suppressed angry shout from behind, "Bastard!"

Empress Song frowned slightly, a flash of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she was about to move away, when suddenly she heard an angry voice from inside again: "What is King Chu trying to do, is he trying to force the palace to Yuzhen?"

Empress Song was shocked, her beautiful eyes showed shock, she covered her plump red lips with her slender hands, and she was lost in thought on her beautiful face.

Speaking of which, it was clearly sent by Dai Quan to the briefing of the secret spy of the inner guard, which was submitted to Emperor Chongping, and it clearly contained the dialogue between Jia Heng and the mother Zhen sent by the King of Chu in detail.

"Ziyu is a generalist."

At this moment, a familiar voice came from the inner study. Empress Song narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly, tightened her handkerchief and said to herself, "There's something about Jia Ziyu here?"

Understanding the key point, Empress Song's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, not daring to stay longer, and walked out of Daming Palace lightly.

In Daming Palace, in the inner study, Emperor Chongping put aside the briefings in his hand, rubbed his temples, and sighed: "It's all worry-free."

The king of Qi is like this, the king of Chu is also like this, and...

These are all thinking about the throne under his seat, but they know the difficulty of him handling state affairs and governing the world.

Seeing that the world of the Chen family is going downhill, it is hard to get back. With his talent, he wants to be a promising king of Zhongxing, but he feels mentally and mentally exhausted. How about the two kings of Qi and Chu?

Emperor Chongping was silent for a moment, and felt that it was better to beat the king of Chu, and said in a deep voice, "Dai Quan, tomorrow you can take a set of four books from the Hongwen Museum and give it to the king of Chu, let him read it carefully, and hand over a copy in the next year." After reading it, I want to read it.”

The king of Chu beat and beat first.

Anyway, next year when the king of Wei opens his mansion, he can also check and balance the power of the king of Chu, just like the power of the three parties.

"After reading it?" Dai Quan said in surprise, suddenly realized, and hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Majesty."

In a short while, he realized that this was reported by the investigators of Jia's mansion. Jia Ziyu had used it to teach Jia Zheng's son, and wrote something that he didn't want His Majesty to notice.

In fact, Baoyu was born with the title of jade, not only the county king like King Beijing knew, but even Emperor Chongping knew the details.

Even the eight characters on the stone, "Don't lose, don't forget, live forever and prosper", Emperor Chongping knew very well.

After all, it overlaps with the eight characters of "Ordered by the heavens, long life and eternal prosperity".

It's not that Emperor Chongping didn't doubt it, and in the end... after so many years, he just shook his head secretly.

 Thanks to the leader of the book friend "The Stone of His Mountain" for the reward!
