The Red Mansions

Chapter 1210 Jia Heng: Well, successfully changed the subject...

Korean Peninsula, Chungcheong-do
After Hauge landed ashore, he followed several petty officials to a mansion where Jiang Chonghui, the minister in charge of Chungcheong Province, lived.

At this moment, in the hall——

Jiang Chonghui was in his early forties, with gray hair and a square face. Under his thick eyebrows, his old eyes looked at the middle-aged vassal king with a little reverence, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the regent, let the old general You take it there."

Because Hauge took the lead in the Jurchen's attack on North Korea and became famous on the Korean Peninsula, even if Dorgon issued the order to be tied to Shengjing, the generals in North Korea would not dare to do it. Return with great authority.

"We do not allow outsiders to interfere in the affairs of the Aixinjueluo clan. As for Dorgon, don't worry about him." Hauge had already recovered from his injuries. His voice was obviously fuller at this moment, and the anger on his face was surge.

Jiang Chonghui asked: "Your Majesty, where is Shengjing?"

Hauge said coldly: "I will send a letter to Dorgon later and ask him what he wants to do! Is it to make his relatives happy and his enemies happy?!"

All the elite soldiers of the Zhenglan Banner were lost. It can be said that Hauge's men were almost wiped out and he did not dare to return to Shengjing.

Jiang Chonghui pondered for a moment and said, "What are your plans next?"

Under Hauge's thick eyebrows, his cold eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "Shengjing can't go back for the time being. My injuries are just as good as mine, so I took people to sneak into the Han Dynasty. If I don't take revenge, I swear I won't go back." As a person!”

It can be said that after losing his soldiers, Hauge no longer had a foothold in Shengjing City, so he could only go into exile elsewhere, follow the example of Jin Gongzi Chong'er, and plan for the future.

The Zhenglan Banner tribe was still there, but Dorgon was wary of the opinions of the Manchu princes and ministers, so he really didn't dare to invade it brazenly.

But similarly, Hauge's practice of not going to Shengjing to plead guilty will inevitably be criticized by the princes and ministers of the Qing Dynasty.

At this difficult time for the Jurchens, Fan Xiandou has tactfully persuaded Dorgon to ignore the past grudges and tolerate Hauge for the time being.

Jiang Chonghui said: "That's fine. If the prince has any instructions, please tell me."

Hauge said: "The previous loss of the Korean Navy was quite unbearable."

Tens of thousands of North Korean navy elites perished on the sea, and Hauge also lost some face.

After leaving Jiang Chonghui's house, he came to his own house.

Hauge sat down, holding a cup of tea in his hand, and took a sip, his brows furrowed, his heart heavy as a haze.

On the majestic face of this Jurchen prince, there was an angry look, and a sinister light shot out from time to time in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, are we really going to Han Dynasty?" The deputy capital of Zhenglan Banner, whose collective name is Yili, whispered from the side.

Hauge paused slightly and said softly: "Let's go to Shandong. The Han heroes there are brewing an uprising right now. Let's go to Shandong and help them."

At this point, it was impossible for him to return to Shengjing and pray for Dorgon's forgiveness. Han people's allusions clearly stated that Shen Sheng died inside and Chong'er was safe outside.

Yili nodded and said: "Then it will be according to the wishes of the prince."

Hauge said in a deep voice: "I heard that Chen Yuan, the son of the former King Zhao of the Longzhi Dynasty, has arrived in Shengjing and wants to contact Dorgon. We will also send people to contact him."

Dorgon was regent in the court, and not all the princes of the Manchu Qing Dynasty had no objections. When they heard that Hauge was in North Korea, many people secretly reported to Hauge.

They are even more happy to see Hauge floating around outside, so that Dorgon will not be the only one in Shengjing.

……

Jinling, Princess Jinyang’s Mansion——

Two days later, a light rain fell in the ancient Jinling City. The first spring rain in the 17th year of Chongping came unexpectedly. The entire Jinling City was shrouded in heavy mist and rain, and the shadows were like a cage of smoke.

Here, Jia Heng, Li Chanyue, and Chen Xiao led Princess Jinyang into the mansion.

Compared with the bumpy and tiring journey back north by boat, the baby's complexion has improved significantly in the past two days. His chubby little face is so white and rosy that it can be broken by a blow.

At this moment, the little guy with milky breasts stretched out his little hands and babbling. His black grape-like eyes were filled with smiles, and his smile turned into a crescent moon.

Jia Heng secretly thought that he is so cute at such a young age.

The beauty held the swaddled baby in her arms, breathed a long sigh of relief, and whispered: "This can be considered a recovery. I have been worried for the past two days."

Although Li Ren has taken care of Li Chanyue in the past, after all, it is much worse than her own flesh and blood. In other words, this is the first time Li Chan has become a mother.

Jia Heng said: "He is still young. He should return to the capital when he is older."

The beauty's eyebrows were as full as water, her white teeth bit her pink lips, and she said softly: "I won't go there anymore. Let him grow up to a certain age in Jiangnan, and then take him to the capital."

At this moment, the little guy seemed to be making trouble again.

The eldest princess of Jinyang, Yong Li, had a beautiful smile on her face and called out, "I'm hungry, Grandma Liu."

Aunt Liu is the child's nanny.

Li Chanyue's pretty face, as white as snow, was quiet and gentle, her eyebrows and starry eyes were as full as water, and she said softly: "Mother, I'm a little hungry too."

Jia Heng chuckled lightly, pulled the girl's slender hair over her, and said, "Mother Liu, take this one over too."

Li Chanyue: "..."

Mr. Xiao Jia is really hungry. Besides, who is eating Niuniu doesn’t care about her.

The eldest princess of Jinyang glanced at Jia Heng angrily. Under her beautiful eyebrows that were as curved as willow leaves, her crystal-clear beautiful eyes were as full as water. She said warmly: "Chan Yue has followed you all the way. It's not less hard work. Do something." Come on, I'm hungry now."

Lianxue responded and then ordered her mother to go.

Li Chanyue's pretty and bright face was covered with shyness, and she said softly: "Mother, I'm fine."

While they were talking, they sat down in the room.

The eldest princess of Jinyang paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and said softly: "The promotion of the New Deal here in Jiangnan is pretty good, right?"

Jia Heng explained: "There were still some before, but many of them were handed over to Gao Zhongping. I can't do anything on my own."

In fact, there are still a lot of things to do, such as the officials in Jiangnan, but they really have no time to deal with them. In other words, for the overall situation of the smooth implementation of the New Deal, not only he compromised a lot, but Emperor Chongping also compromised a lot.

Princess Jinyang said warmly: "That's fine."

After waiting for a while, the maid served the dishes, helped several noble people wash themselves, and then slowly left.

The couple was talking while eating.

Princess Jinyang's eyes were full of water under her willow eyebrows, and she said softly: You should escort people to the north tomorrow, I will just take care of you here. "

Jia Heng said: "Come back and spend more time with you two."

He didn't expect to return to Aurous Hill so soon.

The eldest princess of Jinyang said softly: "The people in the capital are in a hurry. I and Chan Yue can just take care of me here. You can set off tomorrow, catch the boat, and head to the capital as early as possible."

Jia Heng held the beauty's slender hand and said with warm eyes: "I can catch up with you by riding a fast horse the day after tomorrow. Don't worry too much here. The weather is better now."

The eldest princess of Jinyang nestled her little head in Jia Heng's arms and said warmly: "It's much better now. It really scared me before."

Jia Heng nodded and didn't say anything else.

The night is low, the moon is shining brightly, and the bright silvery moonlight is like gauze and mist, shrouding the antique courtyard, giving it a peaceful and quiet atmosphere.

Jia Heng was sitting on the bed and reading a book. Hearing the movement outside, he raised his eyes and looked at Princess Jinyang who was walking gracefully and said, "I'm done."

"We're done. Children really don't make people worry." The eldest princess of Jinyang sat down, her face was dignified and beautiful, her eyebrows and eyes seemed doting and helpless, and she said.

Jia Heng said warmly: "Just keep it with a normal heart, but you can't be too pampering."

The eldest princess of Jinyang turned her face, looked at the young man with soft eyes, said softly "Yes", "I know sometimes, but I can't help it. This is a piece of meat that has fallen from my body."

Jia Heng nodded, put his arm around the beauty's shoulder, and said warmly: "It's fine now when I'm young. It doesn't matter how much you spoil him. But when he gets older, it won't be the same. He will spoil his child like he kills his child."

When a real man is alive, it is inevitable that his wife will be unvirtuous and his children will be unfilial. In fact, he is quite worried about this, so he should pay more attention to the education of his children in the future.

The eldest princess of Jinyang paused slightly and said softly: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. It's better not to go back with Jie'er this time, so as not to make people suspicious when we get to Beijing. It won't be good at that time. "

Previously, her thinking seemed to be a little inappropriate. In fact, it was the safest to leave the child in Jinling.

Jia Heng said warmly: "Okay, no more talking, let's take a rest."

At this moment, Lianxue brought over a basin of steaming hot water and said softly: "Your Highness, wash your feet."

Princess Jinyang chuckled lightly and said, "Lianxue, wash his feet first."

Hearing this, Lianxue's cheeks turned slightly red, she lowered her head and responded, then came to Jia Heng's side and helped Jia Heng take off his shoes and socks.

Princess Jinyang said softly: "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, when will you and Xiaoxiao get married?"

Jia Heng said: "I'm not in a hurry now, I might wait until I return to Beijing."

Although the marriage was granted by Emperor Chongping, there was no rush to consummate the marriage.

The eldest princess of Jinyang said softly: "That's fine. It's not easy for Xiaoxiao to show her face outside. It's not easy for her to marry her husband and raise children." After wiping her feet, the eldest princess of Jinyang looked at the red-cheeked child. Lianxue, who was walking away with a basin of hot water, suddenly said quietly: "Actually, Lianxue likes you."

Jia Heng was silent for a moment and said softly: "When did this all happen?"

"Always." Princess Jinyang's delicate and picturesque eyebrows were charming and she rolled her eyes at the young man.

Jia Heng said softly: "There are many people who like me."

Princess Jinyang: "???"

Why, you seem to be feeling proud?

Jia Heng raised his eyes to look at the beauty, was silent for a moment, and said softly: "Let's talk about it later."

He always felt that Lingxue might be hiding something else, and that it was not as simple as it seemed.

While the couple was talking, they were lying on the bed, and the curtain on the golden hook slowly lowered one side.

Following the rustling sound, I don’t know how long it lasted.

The beauty's bun is swaying, her golden hairpin is hitting the pillow, and a strand of hair is spread to her face. Yongli's face is as charming as a flower. She stares at the young man, and the beautiful spring charm silently flows from the corners of her eyebrows.

Under the slender eyebrows of Liu Ye, the eldest princess of Jinyang, her beautiful eyes were shining softly, and she said softly: "By the way, how did you save the emperor's sister-in-law on Shigong Island in Taihu Lake?"

Jia Heng's eyebrows were raised, his voice could not help but become a little lower, and he said, "Didn't I tell you before?"

The eldest princess of Jinyang snorted uncontrollably, her round voice trembling slightly. Under the light of a ray of light through the curtain, her rose-red face was plump and bright, and she said delicately: "Back then, What he said...is unclear."

"There's nothing to say. The situation was urgent. When I arrived, I searched a lot and found the Queen." Jia Heng said, getting close enough to pick up the stars and the moon.

The eldest princess of Jinyang snorted lightly, her phoenix eyes flashed coldly, she held Jia Heng's hand and whispered: "Didn't something happen at the beginning?"

"What can happen? Don't always be suspicious." Jia Heng's eyes froze for a moment and he said softly.

The eldest princess of Jinyang frowned, her breath was faint, her beautiful cheeks were as red as drunkenness, and she said softly: "Hey, what did I say, why do you suddenly become suspicious?"

Jia Heng: "..."

It can only be said that the women of the Chen family all have delicate hearts with seven orifices, and their scheming is deep and unpredictable, far beyond the comparison of ordinary people. Moreover, they chose to ask at this time, which is obviously to facilitate the observation of subtleties.

It's just that after Jinyang gave birth to a child, his perception may not be so sharp, or he may still be recovering...

Well, you can never say this to Jinyang, she will probably kick him down.

Seeing that the young man was standing still, the eldest princess of Jinyang opened her beautiful eyes, her cheeks filled with shame and anger, and whispered: "Why don't you speak? Alas, why do I think you don't know how to organize me in your heart? ?”

It felt like since giving birth to the child, he seemed to dislike her for getting older and not as youthful and beautiful as before. Even between the curtains on the bed, there was no warmth as before.

In the past, I wanted to take her...

Maybe she really thinks she's old?
It should have been fine before... After all, the emperor's sister-in-law is the mother of two children, and she looks old.

Well, on the contrary, at this moment, the beauty dispelled a lot of doubts in her mind.

Jia Heng looked calm and said calmly: "I don't have this."

The eldest princess of Jinyang, her face flushed, snorted and said, "I'm sorry you don't dare either."

She gave birth to a son for him and almost died from the trouble.

Jia Heng gently stroked the beauty's arm and said, "Okay, Jinyang, let's rest early and stop thinking all day long."

Well, successfully changed the subject.

After saying that, without waiting for the beauty to react, he leaned down, put his arms around her beautiful neck, and put her hands on the bright red lips, which were soft and moist like water. She felt the fragrance was sweet and indescribable.

Since Jinyang had children, she has become more and more mature, and to a certain extent, she can compete with Tian Niuer.

The eldest princess of Jinyang felt a little happy at the young man's intimacy. She couldn't help but snorted, and put her arms around Jia Heng's neck, opened the door and bowed to the thief.

The spring rain outside the window pattered, falling on the black and moss-covered eaves, gathering into a trickle, flowing down to the ground, falling on the green bricks, and passing by.

I don’t know how long it took, but Jia Heng looked at the eldest princess of Jinyang and said softly: "Jinyang, why don't you have another child."

Princess Jinyang: "..."

At this moment, he weakly bit Jia Heng's neck.

Jia Heng said: "Have another daughter, as beautiful as you."

In fact, compared to Zhen Qing having twins, he actually hoped that Jinyang would also have twins.

The eldest princess of Jinyang snorted and said angrily: "I am worried about you, one after another."

At this moment, I still feel a slight swelling in my lower abdomen.

Jia Heng said softly: "I won't give up if I have another daughter."

The eldest princess of Jinyang responded softly, her voice surprisingly soft and greasy: "It's been so long since Xianning and Chanyue have been together, why is there still no movement in the stomach?"

Jia Heng said: "They are still young. It is not a good thing to have children too early."

In fact, Zhen Qing and Zhen Xue objectively want these children, but Qing also has to have a child by his side. Jinyang is getting older, and it will be more dangerous in the future if he doesn't.

As for the usual ones, there is actually not much need for the time being.

Princess Jinyang said softly: "That's fine, but it can't last too long. It's time for others to gossip."

Jia Heng said softly: "I am measured."

As he said that, he hugged the beauty's shoulders, and the two fell asleep hugging each other, falling into a deep sleep, saying nothing again all night.

……

……

After Jia Heng took the eldest princess of Jinyang to Jinling, the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion three miles away from the eldest princess of Jinyang——

In the side room covered by curtains, bursts of herbal aroma spread thickly, carrying an indescribable aura.

Princess Yan Yiliu of Wei is wearing a green dress, her waterfall-like hair is tied up with a green rope and hangs around her waist.

At this moment, the beauty was sitting on a chair in the hall, holding a book in her hand and reading. Under the bright lights, her beautiful and bright jade face showed a look of concentration.

From the yellowed cover, you can see the words "Huangdi Neijing". This experience of going south to seek medical treatment also made Yan Yiliu become a good doctor after a long illness. He started looking for some medical books and started reading them.

"Girl, the old lady in Beijing is urging the girl to go back again." The maid slowly walked closer and said in a sweet voice like an oriole coming out of the valley.

As Yan Ye, the king of Nan'an County, was convicted and seized the title, the Nan'an Yan family gradually fell into decline.

Princess Wei Yan Yiliu looked at the book with lowered eyes, without raising her head, and said softly: "Reply to the old lady."

She was able to hide away in Jiangnan and no longer had to deal with the bad things at home.

Yan Yiliu's sister, Yan Yidong, who was sitting next to her, was nearly thirty years old, with a rich and fair face, a mature woman, and her charm was still there. She said softly: "Yiliu, you have been hiding in Jinling like this. It's not okay if you never go back." Method."

Yan Yiliu sighed softly and said softly: "What can I do if I go back? There is already a concubine in the house. I guess I am no longer needed as a mistress."

The unhappiness of the marriage cast a gloomy look between the beauty's originally heroic and resolute eyebrows, as if a haze had enveloped the beauty's heart.

A look of resentment appeared on Yan Yidong's face, and he said softly: "To be honest, my father's side was defeated. Otherwise, it wouldn't be like this..."

Yan Yiliu Yurong's expression also became a little sad, and she said quietly: "Everything is due to luck."

"After all, it's the Duke of Wei. It would have been fine if he had suffered a defeat in the first place. However, he won the war, which makes his father incompetent." Yan Yidong's eyes showed annoyance and resentment. road.

"You can't blame others. If Duke Wei is defeated again, the situation in the northwest will be so corrupt. Besides, Duke Wei was originally a minister of the Han Dynasty." Yan Yiliu seemed to be defending.

Yan Yidong said: "If he hadn't taken the Hongyi cannon and prevented his father from taking him to Xining, why would he have been a good hereditary king and had his title reduced?"

Yan Yiliu said softly: "It's none of their business."

"Okay, I won't tell you this anymore. I actually met a girl here who has a wonderful way of rejuvenating herself." A look of memory appeared on Yan Yidong's plump and bright face, and he said softly: "Her name is Gu Ruoqing. I heard that she is good at the Qihuang technique, so let her help you check it out later."

Yan Yiliu Qingli's beautiful face showed a thoughtful look, and she whispered: "Then I will go see you in the next two days."

In fact, she has no hope now, she just does her best and obeys fate.

Perhaps when she returned to Beijing, the man had a letter of divorce waiting for her.
