The Red Mansions

Chapter 1166 Queen Song: It seems like she is threatening him? (At the end of the month, please vote!)

Taihu Lake, Shigong Island
"Wait a minute, Madam, I'm going to ask you." Seeing the worry in the beauty's eyes, Jia Heng said softly, turned around and came to Liu Jixian, and asked, "How are you doing with Prince Liang?"

Liu Jixian cupped his hands and said, "King Liang is not seriously ill and is with Eunuch Xia."

Jia Heng nodded, turned around and said, "Don't worry, Madam, Prince Liang and Eunuch Xia are fine."

When Queen Song heard this, the nervousness on her snow-skinned face dissipated, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and said, "Fortunately, fortunately, they are all fine."

Nothing happened. It was a near miss. Those assassins were really hateful.

As he said that, he looked at the young man in the python suit. Under Liu Ye's thin eyebrows, his bright eyes showed an inexplicable color, and asked: "Who assassinated me this time?"

Jia Heng looked solemn, cupped his hands and said, "I can't explain this matter clearly in a few words. How about we wait for the queen to settle down and talk to her alone?"

Chen Yuan's secrets related to the Longzhi Dynasty are not suitable to be disclosed here.

When Empress Song heard the words, she nodded, but when she raised her eyes to look at the young man, her heart skipped a beat and she thought to herself, especially when talking alone, is he thirsty again?
In fact, the beauty was also a little flustered. She told herself that after she came out, she made a tacit agreement not to mention Fang Cai again, but how could such an unforgettable relationship with each other be so easy to let go of?

Not long after, I saw the female officials Nianyun and Xia Shouzhong running over, looking panicked and saying, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

Queen Song was in danger, which almost shocked the two of them.

Not far away, several guards were still protecting Liang Wang Chen Wei. When he saw Queen Song, he felt excited and called out from a distance, "Queen Mother."

Xia Shouzhong knelt in front of Empress Song, walked a few steps on his knees, and cried with joy on his pale face: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I'm late."

Empress Song looked at the few people and said comfortingly: "Okay, I'm fine, and you're fine too."

With that said, he looked at Chen Wei, waved and said, "Wei'er."

"Mother." Chen Wei walked a few steps quickly, with a hint of worry on his face, and whispered.

Jia Heng said from the side: "The Queen has suffered some injuries. Manager Xia and this female officer can help her and seek treatment from her husband."

At this moment, Xia Shouzhong and the female officer Nianyun quickly came forward to help Empress Song.

When Chen Wei heard Jia Heng's voice, he suddenly turned his face, with anger surging on his face, and said: "Jia Ziyu, what do you do as a commander in chief? Why did a gangster attack and kill the queen mother? Why didn't you take precautions in advance?"

"Your Highness, the gangsters set up an ambush in advance, and the empress originally had guards from the Beijing camp."

"If you hadn't allowed the Jurchens to invade Hangzhou, how would your mother have..."

"That's enough." Queen Song's eyebrows were raised, her jade face covered with frost, she looked at Liang Wang Chen Wei, and said in a low voice: "This matter is none of Duke Wei's business, don't bother us anymore."

"Queen mother, he is the governor of Jinyi, so it is hard to escape the blame!" Liang Wang Chen Wei argued.

"The Duke of Wei is also a general who leads troops. He also needs to lead troops to fight. Besides, he arrived in time. There is no danger to me. There is no serious problem." Empress Song said coldly: "Go back first."

Liang Wang Chen Wei said no more and just glanced at Jia Heng hatefully.

Jia Heng said: "Your Majesty has an injury on her leg, please be careful."

At this time, Liang Wang Chen Wei said: "Mother, I will carry you down the mountain on my back."

Queen Song's face was as clear as frost, and she said calmly: "Xia Shouzhong, Nianyun, help me go down."

Jia Heng looked at the graceful beauty, his eyes flickered and his expression was silent.

The beauty wanted to resolve Prince Liang's hatred towards him, but this was tantamount to adding fuel to the fire.

In this way, Jinyi's guards opened the way in front and protected each other from behind, escorting Queen Song down the mountain to the lake.

Liu Jixian went to look for the boat. Xia Shouzhong and Nianyun helped Queen Song get on the boat. Prince Liang and Jia Heng also got on the boat. Everyone headed towards the nearest Suzhou Mansion to the west.

At this moment, the government troops and the Jinyi Palace Guards were also searching for Chen Yuan and his men in black.

Even though Empress Song was safe in this assassination, the guards of Jinyi Mansion were still responsible for disturbing Feng Jia. Not to mention other things, the accompanying generals led by Jinyi Mansion would also be punished.

Of course, Jia Heng will be criticized even if he can't help it.

suzhou mansion

This place is already under the jurisdiction of Jiangsu. After hearing that Empress Song was assassinated, Jiangsu officials, big and small, from Jiangsu Governor Zhang Yongchuan down, planned to visit, but they were all refused by Empress Song, who ordered Jia Heng and King Liang to refuse.

At this moment, in a garden mansion, Queen Song was lying on the bed, and the porridge had been cooked in the kitchen, and she was waiting for the beauty to drink it first.

"Empress, the female medical officer is here." The personal female officer Nianyun said softly to the beauty lying on the bed.

Empress Song said: "Xuan."

After a while, a female medical officer came in from the outside. After coming in, she helped Empress Song debridement and change dressings, and put the handkerchief aside.

"How about it?"

"Your Majesty's wound has begun to heal and scab. I'll pour some more golden sore medicine on your Majesty and bandage it again. It should be fine." After the female medical officer finished speaking, she said softly: "I'll give you some blood-replenishing medicine for your Majesty later. Your Majesty will take the medicine later."

With that said, under Nian Yun's care, the female medical officer wrote a prescription and then left.

Nianyun handed the prescription to Xia Shouzhong to apply the medicine, and came closer again. Just as he was about to take the veil, he heard the beauty say: "Wash the veil, don't throw it away."

Nianyun was stunned for a moment, but he didn't doubt that he was there and responded.

Queen Song watched Nianyun leave, lay on the bed, and sighed softly.

Was it really just a dream?
How could that little fox be so rude to her?
Thinking of the hug and kiss just now, the beauty's graceful and beautiful face turned red with shame, and her heart was filled with embarrassment.

Jia Heng was currently in the garden hall, looking at Xia Shouzhong who was holding a prescription not far away, and asked, "How is your Majesty?"

Xia Shouzhong said: "The medical officer said that the empress is not seriously ill, but she has prescribed medicine to replenish qi and blood. Our family is about to get the medicine."

Jia Heng nodded and said, "Eunuch Xia, you have to be careful when you grab the medicine and brew it later. Be careful, the assassin will still come and send someone to kill you."

It really made him a little worried.

Xia Shouzhong said: "Don't worry, Lord Wei, our family has done a lot of things like this in the palace."

Jia Heng nodded and said, "I'm nearby. If anything happens, call me in time."

At this moment, the entire Suzhou Prefecture's Jinyi Palace Guards have heavily guarded the garden, and the Suzhou Guards have also been mobilized by Jia Heng to prevent a second assassination.

As for the King of Liang, he was not here, but went to see officials in Jiangsu.

Xia Shouzhong responded, then took the prescription.

Jia Heng did not stay. He returned to his wing, ate some snacks, and then took a nap. Then someone called from outside, and Liu Jixian came to report.

Jia Heng washed his face, left the wing, looked at Liu Jixian, and asked, "How is it? Have you found any trace of the man in black?"

"Captain, those men in black are all dead soldiers. More than 300 people died. The rest fled to other mountains and are still being hunted by the army." Liu Jixian said.

Jia Heng frowned and asked, "Have you found any trace of Chen Yuan?"

Liu Jixian shook his head and said softly: "Chen Yuan is suspected of wearing makeup and absconding separately. His humble position has asked the relevant Jinyi Palace guards to pay attention to clues."

If Chen Yuan was hiding in any ravine, the officers and soldiers would really not be able to find him in the vast sea.

Jia Heng said softly: "Have the Jurchens and North Korean navy on Zhoushan Island been wiped out by the army? What is the situation there? Send someone to find out."

I don’t know if Xiaoxiao has arrived in Hangzhou.

Liu Jixian took the order and left.

Jia Heng was no longer sleepy at this moment. He found someone to write a pen and paper and a memorial, and prepared to submit a memorial to Emperor Chongping in the palace.

No matter what, he still had some responsibility for this matter. Fortunately, Queen Song, Prince Liang, Chen Wei and others were all safe and sound.

Otherwise, it would be quite a storm.

But even so, some impeachment is inevitable.

I'm afraid someone will take the opportunity to seize his power in Jinyi Mansion.

In fact, this was also part of the plan of Chen Yuan and the people behind it. Taking advantage of the inability to protect Empress Song, at least Jia Heng could hand over his power as the Commander-in-Chief of Jinyi.

If Empress Song is really assassinated, Jia Heng's position as the Jiedushi of the Beijing Camp will probably also be dismissed, or Jia Heng will take the blame and resign.

An empress whose mother was in the world was killed, and Hauge and the North Korean navy landed in Hangzhou. As a result, Empress Song was taken advantage of by gangsters, and Jia Heng's political future was definitely cast a shadow.

It is impossible for the emperor and his ministers to disagree.

At that time, it was the opportunity for Chen Yuan and others.

Jia Heng wrote a memorial on the desk, describing the assassination of Empress Song and the identity of the assassin. At the same time, he did not shirk his responsibilities and apologized to Emperor Chongping. During this period, he did not even mention that he had defeated the Hongyi and recovered it. Oshima's contribution.

Because even if these merits are not mentioned, the emperor knows about them, but after writing about them, it will be suspected of taking the merits for self-respect.

After Jia Heng finished writing the memorial, he called the guards of Jinyi Mansion and rushed it to the capital at a cost of [-] miles.

When I looked up, I realized that it was already dusk. It was the winter day of the twelfth lunar month. The weather was already a bit groggy, and it seemed that a heavy snow was brewing.

Jia Heng stretched his muscles and left the wing, intending to visit Empress Song.

…………

It was not until the evening that Queen Song took the decoction and fell into a deep sleep, feeling that her body and bones had recovered a lot of energy.

Jia Heng went to the wing to say hello, and happened to see Liang Wang Chen Wei, secretly saying something bad.

"His Royal Highness Prince Liang." Jia Heng bowed his hands.

Chen Wei snorted coldly and said with his eyes: "Jia Ziyu, just wait for your impeachment!"

Said, walked away.

Jia Heng shook his head secretly. He didn't want to show off to a naughty child. His face was expressionless and he was about to put on a facelift and enter the hall.

At this moment, the door creaked, and Empress Song's personal female official Nianyun had already put on a brand-new official dress, stood under the eaves of the corridor, and said in surprise: "Mr. Wei, the empress calls Duke Wei to come in. "

Jia Heng nodded, and as Nian Yun entered the house, he felt a warm spring-like heat coming over him. He had clearly lit the charcoal brazier. In addition to the fragrant aroma, there was also the smell of herbs.

Under the guidance of Nian Yun, Jia Heng entered the inner compartment. Through a screen, he cupped his hands towards the beauty lying on the bed and said, "Wei Chen has met the Queen."

Empress Song coughed lightly, pushed herself up, and said softly: "Ziyu, get up, come and sit."

Jia Heng didn't say much, walked around the screen, looked at the snow beauty on the bed, and said warmly: "Is your health feeling better?"

Empress Song raised her head and looked at the young man intently. The bright eyes under her beautiful eyebrows were a little complicated, and she said softly: "I am much better. Nianyun, show me your seat to Duke Wei and serve you tea."

The female officer Nianyun quickly moved an embroidered pier, asked Jia Heng to sit down, and then poured Jia Heng a cup of tea.

Jia Heng thanked him and looked at Empress Song who was leaning on the bed. He saw that the beauty's hair was disheveled in a bun, and her plump and plump face was indeed much rosier. He said, "Just now, Wei Chen and The Jinyi Mansion has already begun arresting the relevant assassins, and it won’t be long before a report comes.”

Queen Song frowned slightly, her beautiful eyes fixed on the young man, and asked softly: "You said before that you knew who assassinated me?"

Jia Heng pondered and said: "To be honest, the person who assassinated the empress was Chen Yuan, the son of the former King of Zhao."

Queen Song's beauty changed suddenly and she said, "Chen Yuan?"

"Chen Yuan, the son of the former King of Zhao, hates the Tian family and has the heart of a tiger or a wolf. The King of Chu was assassinated in Jinling last time, which led to the tragic death of King Chu's legitimate son. It was this man who secretly plotted the murder. Now that he sees the empress going south, he is targeting her again. Your Majesty." Jia Heng said slowly with a calm expression.

The young man at this moment was completely oblivious to the boldness and boldness he had shown in the valley just now, and was more serious than anyone else.

Under the willow-leaf slender eyebrows of the Song Empress, her jade face was as cold as frost, and she scolded: "How could he still be alive? Back then, King Zhao planned a treason, and his majesty and the emperor had already been killed...how could he still be alive?"

Jia Heng plastic surgery calmed his expression, looked at the beauty, and said softly: "Madam, maybe you did some magic trick to escape from the golden cicada's shell. The ministers are also sending people to trace the whereabouts of this person. If this person is not dead, the royal family will be in trouble."

Queen Song's eyes flickered and she asked, "Zi Yu, have you ever reported this to Your Majesty?"

In fact, for some reason, the beauty didn't want to mention Emperor Chongping at the moment. She only felt slightly shaken and felt strangely uncomfortable.

Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "I reported it to the Holy One before, and the Holy One sent people to investigate, but the whereabouts have not been traced yet."

Empress Song's flawless white face showed reflection, she pursed her pink lips and said, "The enemy is hidden and we are clear. They are like a poisonous snake, waiting for an opportunity to move at any time."

"What the Queen said is true." Jia Heng said softly: "Don't worry, the Queen, this matter will not happen again. From now on, the Jinyi Mansion Guards will send additional troops to protect the Queen's personal safety."

Empress Song nodded.

Jia Heng comforted him and said, "The empress will stay in Suzhou Mansion for a while and then return to Jinling together. Xianning and Chanyue are both in Jinling."

"I don't want to go back to Jinling right now. Is the war in the south over? And Hangzhou? Have the enemy troops over there retreated?" Queen Song asked with concern, her beautiful eyes shining like water under her beautiful eyebrows. road.

Previously, I was just focused on running for my life, but for a moment I didn't even bother to ask.

Jia Heng said: "Wei Chen and his cavalry arrived in time. Hangzhou Prefecture is safe and sound. The city has not been breached and is safe and sound. Hauge's troops have fled north and the Jiangnan Navy is pursuing them."

In addition to regaining the island of Taiwan, this war also basically destroyed more than half of the North Korean navy. After that, it was the Han navy's turn to march north to threaten the North Korean headquarters, and then attack Liaodong from a pinch.

Queen Song looked at the bloodshot eyes of the young man, and her heart was slightly shaken.

All this is easy to say, I'm afraid this young man came all the way at night, not only to save Hangzhou Fucheng, but also to save...

Empress Song was silent for a moment, with a complex look on her face, and said softly: "Ziyu has been fighting in the south and north in the past year, and he hasn't stopped much even after the New Year."

Chongping has been at war for the entire 16 years, and recently encountered this incident again.

Jia Heng looked at the beauty and said softly: "Thank you very much for your concern. I am loyal to the country and serving the country. I am just repaying Your Majesty for your kindness."

When Queen Song heard this, her heart beat wildly, her beautiful eyes drooped slightly, and she didn't know why she felt a sense of absurdity in her heart when she heard these words.

You were kissing and... Is this how you repaid the kindness of knowing you?

At this moment, the wantonness and wantonness between the teeth and cheeks, as well as the unpredictability in front of her, seemed to have not subsided, making the beauty's heart feel slightly hot, and her jade cheeks couldn't help but feel a little rosy like clouds.

Jia Heng raised his eyes to look at the beauty's plump face, catching the fleeting trance between the plump and graceful eyebrows, and said warmly: "My queen has just recovered from a serious illness, and she is feeling haggard. She should rest more." .”

He was about to stand up and say goodbye.

A slight blush appeared on Empress Song's jade face, her red lips parted slightly, and she said softly: "Hey, I still have something to ask you."

At this moment, the word "Hey" revealed a hint of the previous delicateness and charm in the soft and charming look.

Jia Heng looked slightly startled, calmed his mind and said, "It doesn't matter if you say so."

"The third and fourth girls of the Zhen family are in your house?" Queen Song looked at the young man with a clear face with her beautiful eyes like water, and asked softly.

Jia Heng said: "It's at home."

Deep down in his heart, he couldn't help but guess the beauty's intention in asking this question.

Empress Song moved her lips, hiding her hand under the quilt, twisting the square handkerchief in her hand, looking at the young man, and asked in a low voice: "Are these two your concubines?"

I heard that the daughter and son of Princess Zhen Xue of Beijing recognized the little fox as their godfather. It seemed that the two parties had a close relationship.

Jia Heng said: "The Zhen and Jia families were family friends. When I first went to Jiangnan, I was entrusted by the Zhen family to take care of the Lanxi sisters after the Zhen family was confiscated for crimes. Now I have been in the house for almost a year. It is indeed Wei Chen’s concubine.”

There is nothing to deny this. There are two Lanxi, one is scheming and the other is silly and sweet.

Time flies so fast. It has been a year since he went to Jiangnan for the first time and became friends with Zhen Qing and Zhen Xue.

And he has gone from being an ordinary martial artist to being a first-class Duke, and even has two or three children. Everything in his past suddenly seems like a dream.

"This time King Chu followed you to escort the ordnance, and helped you a lot, right?" Queen Song hesitated, pursed her pink lips, and said softly.

When Jia Heng heard this, his calm eyes met the beauty's soft gaze, but he saw that the beauty had quickly moved away, and Ying Yue inevitably fell under the beautiful neck. He asked softly: "What do you want to say, the queen?"

"It's nothing." For some reason, the beauty looked away at the young man's bright eyes. She felt a little panicked and subconsciously didn't want to bring up the matter of King Wei Chen Ran.

It seemed a bit like she was blackmailing him?
Well, why would she have such a ridiculous idea?
No, what if you blackmail him?
He was so rude and took advantage of him, so he shouldn't just sit back and watch.

Seeing that Nianyun was not here, Jia Heng lowered his voice and said softly: "Sweet girl, you want to ask about the East Palace of King Chu and King Wei, right?"

Empress Song: "..."

Did you call Tian Niuer again?You are presumptuous!

Jia Heng said softly: "After this battle, the King of Chu will most likely be on duty at the military aircraft office to check and balance His Highness the King of Wei."

When Empress Song heard this, the shame in her heart dissipated a little. Liu Ye raised her slender eyebrows, with a trace of curiosity in her beautiful eyes. Her pink lips were slightly opened, and she could vaguely see the crystal clear teeth, and said: "This... What do you mean?"

Jia Heng glanced at it, but did not dare to look more, and said softly: "The way of checks and balances is the emperor's art, why do you ask questions knowingly?"

Although there is some suspicion of alienation, what he said is also true.

It is true that the emperor does not believe any of his sons. The top of the pyramid of power is too crowded.

When Queen Song heard this, her delicate body trembled slightly, her face was as pale as paper, and she seemed to suddenly understand.

Yes, His Majesty was originally suspicious of her Song family. Now that Ran'er has joined the military aircraft department first, he will definitely support the King of Chu to suppress Ran'er.

But has His Majesty ever thought about her?
Seeing the change in the beauty's face, as if she was caught in some kind of resentment and resentment, Jia Heng didn't say much else, and said warmly: "Your Majesty, it's getting late, I'll go back first."

Although it was pleasing to the eyes to be with the plump and lovely beauty without doing anything else, I did not dare to be as intimate and frivolous as before in the valley because it was too dangerous.

Empress Song waved her hands, a lazy look appeared on her plump and snowy face, and said softly: "I am also tired, you can go."

Jia Heng stood up, said nothing, and said goodbye.

Watching the young man leave, Empress Song held the handkerchief left by the young man in her delicate hands, her beautiful face full of astonishment.

What did Ziyu mean when he told her this?
Maybe he regards her as one of his own?
The beauty's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly suppressed the throbbing in her heart.

Then I remembered another thing.

Yan'er was in her prime, and she looked... quite similar to her when she was young. If Yan'er was betrothed to him, she might be able to prevent him from getting involved with the King of Chu.

Even if she can't catch it, she can deal with it as soon as possible if there is any trouble.

This is how His Majesty knew the news in advance and won the throne.

With this in mind, the beauty made up her mind.
