The heavens start with letting the bullets fly

Chapter 569 When Chen Zhao goes to Jinling, Sister Feng strikes back (three in one)

What a second aunt, what a second wife!What a good aunt!

What a good elder!

Sister Feng sighed deeply in her heart. Ever since she married into Rongguo Mansion, she had trusted her so much. Even though she had a grudge recently, she also thought that after all, it was a marriage and marriage. But she is still young, sister Qiao is a girl, and the child in her womb is unknown, how did she get to this point?
But Sister Feng actually understood in her heart.

As early as when I entered the door, the relationship between the two parties had already reached this point.

Otherwise, I would not have been married for several years before giving birth to a daughter.

Otherwise, the rules in the mansion would not be lax, and even the quarrel between two third-class maids would have to be handled by her personally.

Sometimes, people's knowledge is enough, just waiting for someone to pierce the window paper.

If it is broken, the friendship will be gone.

But myself and the child in my womb were able to survive.

Sister Feng was in a trance, thinking of the secret stories of house fights in various households that she had heard from the boudoir to the present, and also thinking of the matter that she and Lian Erye had discussed for a long time two days ago, and went to Chen's house to kneel down.

Then he slowly came back to his senses, and said insincerely: "Speaking of which, after eating this golden bird's nest, shouldn't this box be thrown away? Then how can it hurt people?"

"This box is beautifully packaged. As long as you open it by hand, a little bit will fall out. It's actually hard to detect. Then some things will be sent over there from time to time, and they will accumulate slowly. This is called accumulating more and accumulating water. .” Li Nanny remained calm.

Sister Feng took a deep breath, and then exhaled, her eyes became brighter: "Nurse, you said that after discussing with Second Master Lian, I had a violent fight, can I avenge this? "

Nanny Li shook her head: "As long as the empress in the palace is still there, the second wife can sit firmly in the Rongxi Hall. No matter how convincing our evidence is, no matter how angry the second master Lian is, the old lady, the elder master, and the second master will all agree with her." Mud, even because of the empress, Second Mistress is afraid..."

"Hehehe, that's right, that's true." Sister Feng snorted coldly: "It's no wonder that even though Miss Lin entered the Rongguo Mansion, she wholeheartedly lived in Lixiangyuan. Take her away in an instant, just because I don't want my children to jump into the fire pit. She is Tanhua Gong, a high-ranking lord, who can see clearly, and I'm afraid that he will think of 'watching him build a tall building, watching him entertain guests, watching his building collapse' Woolen cloth."

Nanny Li remained silent.

"Forget it, Mammy, we have to find a way to make a small fight, so that the other side will be frightened and never dare to go one step further, so as to ensure that the baby in my belly can be born smoothly."

Sister Feng looked at Nanny Li and said in a flat tone.

Nanny Li smiled slightly, and said: "With the words of Second Mistress, this old slave knows what to do, but this matter has to be done step by step, and the Second Wife must be upset first, so that we can proceed step by step..."

After hearing Nanny Li's words, Sister Feng couldn't help sighing: "This man, he needs to read more and read more..."

Nanny Li laughed but was speechless.

Three or five days later, the reputation of Jia Baoyu in Rongguo Mansion suddenly spread throughout Chang'an City.

It turned out that as Baoyu grew up, he seldom went to school and spent more time in the inner house, and he didn't have to worry about building a provincial hospital. He only stayed with his sisters and girls every day, reading, writing, playing the piano, playing chess, painting and reciting poems , and even describe Luan and phoenix, fighting grass and hairpins, singing softly, cracking and guessing characters, doing everything, but he is also very happy. First cloud:
Spring night
Xia Xiaoyun and Yun Wei are in charge of laying out the show, and the toad in the alley is even more untrue.
The pillow is lightly cold and raining outside the window, and the spring scenery in front of my eyes is like a dreamer.
Yingying candle tears because of who weeps, a little bit of flower worry is angry for me.
Since the little servant girl is lazy and coquettish, she can't bear to laugh and talk frequently.
Summer night
The beautiful woman in embroidering has a long dream, and the golden cage parrot calls for tea soup.
The window is bright, the musk moon opens the palace mirror, and the room is covered with sandalwood clouds and royal incense.
The amber cup is poured with dew and lotus, and the glass sill is filled with willows for a cool breeze.
The water pavilion is moving everywhere, and the curtain rolls up the Zhulou to put on evening makeup.
Autumn night
There is no noise in the Jiangyun Pavilion, and the flowing light of Gui Po is soaked in Qiansha.
The moss-locked stone pattern accommodates the sleeping crane, and the well floats in the tung dew to wet the crow.
The handmaid who holds the quilt goes to Shu Jinfeng, and the person who leans on the threshold returns to the green flower.
Sleepless at night, thirsty for wine, smoked heavily, and asked to make tea again.
Originally, some people were looking forward to Baoyu writing "Winter Night", but no matter how anxious they were, they had to wait until winter. But even without "Winter Night", these three poems are still true. The disciples of Fulang in the capital Everybody liked it very much.

You must know that the words and sentences are romantic and coquettish, and the gentle and tender scenes are no worse than the ancient and modern legendary novels.

There are a group of low-powered people who have seen it made by the son of Rongguo Mansion, and they naturally hold it; there are also a group of frivolous people who like the fragrance of the sentence and love to read it, so they find Baoyu to match it.Pian Baoyu still thought he was great, and became more and more complacent in painting, and the reputation of attacking people spread to the outside world. Some people envied and others ridiculed, but it completely confirmed the Jia family's reputation of being indomitable.

But after Baoyu's name as a "poet" spread, it was not the Jia family who responded first, but the historians.

The historian Bowling Hou Shi Nai has been released, and the master in Beijing is Zhongjing Hou Shi Ding.

During this period of time, the situation in central Beijing was turbulent. Many military families were beaten by the emperor, and scholarly families like the Li family in Changzhou were also affected. Zhongjinghou Shi Ding was always restless, desperately seeking to be released, and busy with socializing for days. .

As a result, he was the first to get the news at the wine table. After returning home, Shi Ding threw the glass angrily, and Mrs. Shi regretted that her intestines were almost green - it was nothing if something happened to Xiangyun. How is your daughter Xiang Wei doing?
So he hurriedly sent someone to pick up Xiangyun.Pian Xiangyun was used to playing in Jia's house, so he didn't want to go back to the historian's house to be restrained everywhere, and thought to himself that the historian would not dare to do anything to him, so he talked with Jia's mother and wanted to go back later-the mother-in-law replied directly to Shi's family. Mrs. Hou was furious, and her heart couldn't help but become disheartened. She said to Shi Ding through tears: "Master, you have seen the situation of Yun girl now. Although I am willing to do my best for the sake of the dead brother and sister-in-law, but she How can you care about me?"

……

"My lord Yu, my lord Wang, discuss the matter in the left courtyard of Dali Temple. If there is anything wrong, Jin Yiwei Zhang Heqing can help."

"Please don't worry, my lord."

This is already in the boundary of Tongzhou. On the wharf of the canal, Chen Zhao was exhorting a group of farewell people. Over there, Yu Huaide and Wang Haigang took orders. Here, Zhang Heqing said: "Although the commander of Jinyiwei is Sha Dutang, But he always doesn't care about things, Mr. Chen still has to make up his mind, we can hurry up and make contact, and there won't be much time wasted."

Chen Zhao nodded with a smile, while Han Xiaozhong said in a deep voice:
"My lord, I'm afraid Jiangnan already knows the news that your lord is going. I'm afraid it won't be so smooth for your lord to go."

"It's not that I'm afraid, it must have been known over there."

Chen Zhao said with a smile.

You must know that Dazhou has a vast territory, with eighteen provinces in the interior, plus military towns and foreign domains, it is really an incomparably vast territory with a territory of thousands of miles.

As the country grows larger, there is naturally a situation where information transmission is not timely, so all dynasties have vigorously rectified the post stations.

Therefore, following the example of the former Ming Dynasty, Da Zhou also had a system in the local important towns.

For example, in Jinling, because it radiated to all places in the south of the Yangtze River, the trinity system of Jinling General, Jiangnan Governor and Guarding Eunuch was set up, which can be regarded as the second center of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

In addition to Jinling, there are three major centers: Hankou, Chang'an, and Yangcheng.

In order to avoid losing control of the world because of the long distance and poor news.

The news from the capital went to Jinling, and went to various prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River. The horses left the capital quickly, and people only dismounted when changing horses.

The official business of the Great Zhou is eleven days, that is to say, it is normal for the news from the two capitals to arrive on the eleventh day.

However, most of the court officials came from Jiangnan, and the national policies of the Great Zhou Dynasty were inextricably related to Jiangnan, and a large number of materials transported by water were all transported from Jiangnan.

Therefore, countless things require north-south communication, such as Lianghuai salt affairs, when Chen Zhaoyi pushed the new salt law to bully Yangzhou salt merchants, it was because of a few days of information gap that Yangzhou salt merchants bowed their heads.

After Chen Zhao completely rectified Yangzhou, the three major trading companies even invested in the rectification of post stations.
Therefore, up and down the canal, from the capital to Jinling, because of official and commercial exchanges, better horses are used, and there will not be any official obstacles along the way. It is truly possible to rotate every thirty miles, so that the horses are always kept in the same position. Going at a high speed, the fastest trip from Beijing to Jinling can be eight days, and it is said that it can be six and a half days.

This line is neither official nor established by the Jiangnan wealthy family, but jointly established by Chen Zhao and the three major trading companies, and named Shunfeng Xinju. Of course, if the Jiangnan wealthy family wants to use it, it will have to spend money.

Of course, the rich families in the south of the Yangtze River have also established corresponding trade routes, but due to poor management, they have become increasingly sluggish.

So you can't spend money to buy roads.

Baoding Mansion and Zhending Mansion, which are close to the capital, may not know any news from the imperial court, but the Jiangnan side has already known it clearly. As for the land occupation case against the Li family in Changzhou, this case involves the current Jiangnan chief clan. It is also very representative, and I don't know how many people are staring at it.

The decree received by Chen Zhao in mid-August will only leave Beijing in mid-September, so there is no reason why the Jiangnan side does not know, anyway, Emperor Xiaode's attitude is very clear, if Chen Zhao is in a hurry, he is afraid of responding to the reactions of all relatives , so don't worry.

Since he was going to work out of town, he had to follow everyone's rules. Chen Zhao boarded the ship at Tongzhou Pier and went south along the canal. When the time came, he crossed the river to the south of the Yangtze River. This journey took more than 20 days, leisurely and leisurely. .

There were not many people who came over from the capital to see them off. It was nothing more than a few familiar officials from Dali Temple and Jin Yiwei to see them off. After a few words of advice there, everyone went back.

This time, because he was going to Jinling to be the governor, not on a business trip, Chen Zhaofei not only brought his own soldiers, but also his maids and servants. In addition, he also brought some from Jinyiwei, led by Xu Ziling and Lin Fei, about 200 people.

In addition, there was another person, Xue Pan, Chen Zhao's old acquaintance.

When Xue Pan heard that Chen Zhao was going south, he couldn't help himself, and thought to himself: "Now that I've grown up so much, I don't have literature, and I don't have martial arts. I don’t know the local customs, the distance and the road. Since Brother Chen is going to be an official, and there are managers from the three major trading companies around him, why don’t I take some capital and go south with Brother Chen, and spend a year or so with their managers? Yes, it doesn’t matter if you make money or not, it’s also good to visit the mountains and rivers.”

Having made up his mind, he invited Chen Zhao in the Jinxiang Courtyard, talked to him, and asked for nothing. After thinking for a long time, Chen Zhao agreed.

In the evening, Xue Pan told his mother. Aunt Xue was happy to hear that, but she was afraid that he would cause trouble outside. It would be the last thing to spend money, so she didn't order him to go. She just said, "At least you guard me, so I can rest assured. Besides, you don’t need to do this business, and you don’t need to wait for the hundreds of silver to be used. It’s better for you to keep your own place at home than the few hundred silver.”

Xue Pan had made up his mind, and he was willing there. He just said: "Every day I say that I don't know the world, I don't know this, and I don't learn that. Now I'm ruthless and cut off all those that don't matter. Now I want to be an adult and learn. I'm not allowed to do business again. What do you want me to do? I'm not a girl. Lock me up at home. When will the day be? Besides, what kind of person is Chen Zhao? If I go with him, there will never be any Wrong. The three stewards around him will not cheat me either."

When Aunt Xue heard this, she went to discuss with Baochai. Baochai laughed and said, "My brother is really going to experience some serious business, so it's good. It's just that he speaks nicely at home, but when he's outside, his old illness recurs, and it's even more difficult to restrain him. But there is nothing to worry about. If he really changes, it will be a blessing in his life. If he doesn't change, mom can't do anything else. Half do her best and half obey the destiny.
If you are such an adult, if you just worry that he will not know the way of the world, can't go out, can't do anything, he will be locked up at home this year, and he will be like this next year. Since what he said is justified, Mom will forgive me and lose [-] silver. I handed it over to him to wipe it off.

Besides, what kind of person is Master Chen?Even mountains of swords and seas of fire can escape, and Jianu and Yangzhou salt merchants can't fool him, so they can naturally protect his brother's safety.Second, when he went out, there was no one around to cheer him up, and Mr. Chen would not help him do bad things. When he went outside, who would be afraid of others? If he had something to eat, he would be hungry if he had nothing to rely on. Seeing this, he I'm afraid it will save more trouble than staying at home. I don't know."

After hearing this, Aunt Xue thought for a while and said, "It's what you said. It's worth spending two dollars to teach him to behave better."

The discussion was settled, and there was nothing to say all night. On the next day, Aunt Xue held a banquet, ordered Xue Pan to invite Chen Zhaolai, and asked Xue Pan to entertain him in the study. Ask Chen Zhao to take care of Xue Pan.

For this reason, Xue Baochai had to cook by herself, cooked two dishes, and ordered the little maid to break in, thanking Chen Zhao.

As a result, Xue Pan tidied up, took a few servants and stewards, and followed Chen Zhao onto the boat.

Of course Chen Zhao would not bring only one ship. His current status was extraordinary, so he brought a total of thirteen ships, more than a hundred soldiers and equipment, which was more than enough.

Because this time he was going to Jinling to take up an official position, Xia Ruoqing, Xiangling's aunts, Qingwen and other maidservants all followed her.

Half a month later, the fleet arrived in Yangzhou.

Compared with the desolation when he left the capital, when Chen Zhao arrived at the Yangzhou pier, it was really lively. Chen Zhao's boat had just entered the watershed of Yangzhou, and a boat came to welcome it immediately.

In early September, the canals were busy and boats were slow, but today is different.

All ships had to avoid and give way to Chen Zhao's fleet.

Yangzhou Xunyan Yushi Yamen, Yangzhou Jinyiwei Hundred Households Office, the chief executives of the three major commercial companies in Yangzhou, representatives of Yangzhou salt merchants, local officials, and representatives of the people were all waiting at the pier. Not to mention the scene.

Chen Zhao walked out of the cabin wearing the robe of the Martial Lord, and when he was about to disembark, firecrackers blared below, all the officials and gentry bowed to salute, and some white bodies knelt down.

"This is my Yangzhou!"

Chen Zhao sighed with emotion in a low voice.

……

"What, girl Feng is popular? Is it true?"

In Rongxi Hall, Mrs. Wang looked at Zhou Rui's family with a look of shock.

My heart was full of surprises.

Although I have done something wrong, logically, it should be the time of delivery...

It shouldn't be now.

"Zhou Rui's family, let's go see Feng girl."

Mrs. Wang quickly came back to her senses, and said to Zhou Rui's family.

"Yes, ma'am." Zhou Rui's family lowered their heads and lowered their eyes, very docile.

……

It was cold.

In the big house of Rongguo Mansion, in Miss Feng's small courtyard.The maids and women all looked anxious and tensed, not daring to breathe.

The sound of sobbing could be heard faintly in the house.

Sitting on the bed, Sister Feng rested her head on Mrs. Wang's shoulder, and from time to time pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

"My son, you have suffered. It doesn't matter, you and Lian'er are still young, and there will always be children in the future."

Sister Feng frowned, "What did Madam say! The child is still there!"

"Is the child still there?"

Mrs. Wang's face froze, "The mother-in-law who just came to report the letter said that the imperial doctor has seen it, and the situation is not very good."

At the same time, I felt relieved: "I can't say, it's not because of the medicine." '

"Ma'am, it's not very good to see red. Fortunately, Nanny Li also knows medical skills, and she knows acupuncture, which saved my child's life."

Nanny Li came to Rongguo Mansion. Everyone in the mansion knew about it, but they didn't think much about it.

Mrs. Wang's complexion turns green and white, keep it?How did you keep it?Save it, what were you crying about just now!Keep it, will my medicine still work?

But Sister Feng seemed to know what she was thinking, she lowered her head and touched her lower abdomen, "I just lament the pity of this child, who has experienced such things in only two months.

Luckily he was a lucky man.If there is anything wrong with him, what can I do!My aunt doesn't know, when I saw Hong before, I was so scared that my whole body became cold, I was afraid of this child... I was afraid of this child..."

While Sister Feng was talking, her peripheral vision quickly swept over Madam Wang.

The corner of Mrs. Wang's mouth twitched, and after a while, she finally remembered that she was Sister Feng's aunt and uncle, so she put her arms around Sister Feng, "As the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later. This child is destined to be a good one, and he will definitely be a good one in the future. Blessed."

Sister Feng lay in Mrs. Wang's arms, her eyelashes trembling, and her expression gradually darkened.This is true, but it depends on who said it.

When she said that the child was fine just now, Mrs. Wang's face flashed with shock and disappointment. She, Wang Xifeng, had just noticed it with all her concentration!

That's all there is to witness.

I expected it right.

Bacheng is this good aunt, good aunt!

Sure enough, it was for a noble title, and even blood relatives were ignored.

Baoyu was born with jade, and the empress was a concubine in the palace.

With such a great fortune by her side, she actually made such a murderous move.

Such a cruel heart!

There was a cry of begging for mercy from the ear room next door.

"Second Master, you have to be fair. The cakes we make in the kitchen are the medicinal ingredients ordered by Second Grandma. We know that Second Grandma is pregnant, so I asked a few more questions. Miss Ping'er and Nanny Li both It's okay to say it. How could this harm the second grandma!"

This is the justification of the woman in the kitchen.

Added herbs?

Or did she ask for it?
How is this going?

Mrs. Wang frowned deeply, with a very cold expression on her face, "If you want me to say, you are too careless. You are pregnant, and this medicinal material is not added casually. You don't ask a few imperial physicians, how dare you draw conclusions casually? That's good. I kept it now, if there is an emergency..."

Seeing this good aunt say this, Sister Feng only sneered in her heart.

In fact, this medicinal material is fine.

But if this medicinal material neutralizes the medicinal foam that Mrs. Wang secretly released, if it enters the stomach, it will not only make the pregnant woman see red, but even endanger the lives of the two of them.

But of course Sister Feng would not eat that cake.

The reason she and Nanny Li made such an agreement was just to put on a good show in front of Mrs. Wang.

"Although the pastry used some medicinal ingredients I arranged, I asked the doctor that pregnant women can eat it. It's a pity that someone knew that someone had drugged me!"

Sister Feng gritted her teeth, but Mrs. Wang's heart was pounding. Did Sister Feng know, or didn't she?

Grandma Li opened the curtain and came in, holding a piece of paper with some medicine foam on it.

Sister Feng took a look and said with a smile, "Is that all thanks to Nanny Li today?"

Grandma Li sighed: "The dosage is not much. Logically speaking, there will be no reaction. It will take a few months, and it will show up after delivery, making it difficult for the fetus to survive. Even if there is a chance, adults can save it." , but also lost the ability to reproduce, and this thing is inhaled, which is more subtle than eating into the mouth. Even if something goes wrong, it is normal for a woman to have difficulty in giving birth, and people will think that it is the second mistress's own problem. .”

Sister Feng snorted coldly and said to Aunt Li: "Auntie, take my note and order Laiwang to visit the Jinyiwei. Zhang Heqing, a member of the Jinyiwei Qianhu, is a good friend of Mr. Chen and Mr. Lian. Please ask him to send people. I must Find out who poisoned me!"

"Yes!" Nanny Li said calmly.

Mrs. Wang's face turned pale, and her body trembled. If it wasn't for the armrests of the chair she was sitting on, she might have fallen off.

She wanted to stop, but at this moment, she couldn't say a word.

"Wait!" A voice came from outside the door.

It turned out to be the old lady's voice.

Sister Feng frowned slightly, and exchanged glances with Nanny Li, and when she looked at Mrs. Wang again, she saw that her complexion had returned to normal, but her eyes were a little dim.
