The Red Mansions

Chapter 614 Jia Heng: This is the only way out...

A lucky boat as tall as a city sails along the river of Guangtong Canal with the wind, chopping the waves. The river flows "crash" on both sides of the ship, and the green willows on both sides of the bank are swaying with the wind. It is already summer. , all kinds of flowers can be seen on both sides of the strait, blooming stamens and fragrant flowers.

Calculated according to the difference of one month in the lunar calendar and the Gregorian calendar, at this moment, the May Day holiday in the solar calendar has passed, and the weather in the north has begun to heat up. The originally complicated dresses have also been replaced with light gauze skirts.

I don't know how long, but as time passed, Jia Heng embraced the eldest princess of Jinyang deeply, strands of beautiful hair sticking to Furong Yurui's cheeks, her beautiful eyes seemed unopened, charming and flowing.

"Jinyang, it's been more than a month." Jia Heng whispered how he missed Jinyang.

Princess Jinyang buried her head in Jia Heng's arms, she didn't want to move a single finger, she suddenly frowned and said nothing, biting her pink lips with her white teeth, her beautiful eyes flashed a trace of bewilderment.

No, something seems wrong?
No, she hasn't asked about his relationship with Xianning yet, so why did she confuse him?

And next door is Chanyue, no good, Chanyue is probably awake right now?

Thinking of this, the jade face that was originally scattered like a beautiful cloud was covered with clear frost, and gently pushed away Jia Heng's arm, the phoenix eyes flickered, and fixedly looked at Jia Heng, and said angrily: "You have nothing to do with me. Gong said?"

Although she pretended to be majestic, but when she first opened her mouth, it turned out to be soft and coquettish, like melting ice and snow, which was pleasant to the ear, and could not play any "deterrence" effect at all.

Jia Heng paused, pretending to be surprised and said: "What else can I say?"

Princess Jinyang snorted lightly.

This person, talking about him again and again, clearly wanted to fool him.

The eldest princess of Jinyang sat down, her eyebrows frowned, under the disheveled temple hair, that gorgeous and unprovoked face was beautiful and heavenly, like a cloud of brocade and haze, under the straight Qiong nose, the shiny red lips spit out two One word: "Xianning."

Jia Heng's face was silent, and he said softly: "Xianning didn't come over, what are you asking her for?"

He knew he couldn't escape such a situation.

The eldest princess of Jinyang snorted coldly, turned her head aside, leaving only Jia Heng with a beautiful side face, the hair on her temples was sticking together with sweat, and the jade earrings were also showing off because of the sweat Circle of extravagant luster.

About him and Xianning, Xia Houying told her through a secret letter. During the two people's stay in Henan, they had a very strong relationship, and recently it even reached the point where honey is mixed with oil, like glue.

Jia Heng didn't know what to say for a while, and said in a low voice: "Xianning came from thousands of miles away, and she went out with the army..."

The voice in the back became more and more subdued, after all, a little lack of confidence.

He really owed Jinyang too much. Now that he thinks about it, if Jinyang hadn't recommended him to the emperor, he wouldn't have risen so smoothly, or in other words, it couldn't have been so fast.

So, less struggle...he still ate soft food?

Well, if you eat soft rice, you can eat soft rice, it's really delicious.

Princess Jinyang pretended to be cold and said, "So you followed her?"

After all, I couldn't bear to say serious things, otherwise, would you be worthy of me?

It definitely made Jia Heng feel like a knife piercing his heart.

But once some words are uttered, they will be overwhelmed. Princess Jinyang naturally understands this truth.

Jia Heng sighed softly, remained silent, just buried her cheek in the heart of Princess Jinyang, like an ostrich buried its head in the sand.

However, he still gently rubbed against the heart of Princess Jinyang, like a child who made a mistake.

Princess Jinyang was dumbfounded by this trick, shy and annoyed at the same time: "Why are you like Chanyue?"

As soon as these words came out, the heart of Li Chanyue who was hiding in the dark and watching suddenly jumped.

What, she is not Mr. Jia, at least she will not be like that.

Princess Jinyang gently put her arms around Jia Heng's back, and she couldn't bear to blame her, or in other words, no matter how much anger she felt in her heart, she just slightly blamed and said: "You...you do good thing."

Jia Heng raised his eyes, his eyes met, his eyes were gentle, and he said in a low voice, "Li'er."

"Hmph, don't call me your boudoir's name." The eldest princess Jinyang snorted, looking at those clear eyes, she felt a little embarrassed for some reason, and said in a strange way: "If you want to call, call your Zhi'er. , or do you want both to shout?"

Jia Heng frowned, his heart skipped a beat, and at this moment, he suddenly mentioned it...he really couldn't stand it.

Princess Jinyang's phoenix eyes narrowed. She just tested it, and this man showed his feet.

Jia Heng looked as usual, and said in a low voice: "Okay, it's still early."

After getting bored with Princess Jinyang for a while, Jia Heng put on his clothes amidst Yiren's urging, raised his eyes and glanced at the sky outside from the window, but saw that at some point, the twilight had completely fallen, and a round of The halo moon, as big as a jade plate, moved eastward among the rolling hills.

Earlier, he asked Liu Jixian to lead Jinyi Mansion Guards to escort him along the river.

"Your Highness, take a bath and change clothes first, and I'll wait for you in the hall." Jia Heng looked at the already limp Princess Jinyang and said in a low voice.

"Go ahead, let Lianxue call in." Jinyang Princess Xueyan was dizzy and said weakly, under her black eyebrows, Gu Pan Liubo's beautiful eyes saw Jia Heng's cheeks, and said angrily: "Return the rouge on your face Yes... wipe it, and ask Lianxue to find you a side room, wash it well... Wait a minute, why do you see your sisters with a smell?"

This lucky boat is big enough, and there are several wing rooms, so it's okay for Jia Heng to spend the night in the cabin.

Jia Heng picked up the handkerchief from his pocket, wiped the rouge from his cheeks, and said with a light smile, "I'll go right away."

Jia Heng left the cabin where Princess Jinyang was, and walked towards the outside along the corridor. Under the guidance of Lianxue, he went to a cabin, bathed and changed clothes, and washed away the dust.

When night fell, the entire lucky boat sailing on the water was also lit with various lights, and strings of lanterns were hung on the mast. However, under the order of Princess Jinyang, the vermilion lanterns were not used, but It's an ordinary lantern.

Not only that, except for the trusted female officials and nuns, there are no dancers and musicians on the blessing boat, and they come all the way, very low-key.

In the cabin where Yuan Chun lived, the candles were already lit, dispelling the summer night, and the evening wind passed through the bamboo curtains and blown into the cabin, making people feel refreshed.

Tanchun put down the book in his hand, looked at Yuanchun, and said in a low voice: "Big sister, brother Heng has been at Princess Jinyang's residence for so long, why hasn't he come back?"

No matter how clever the girl is, it is difficult to think elsewhere.

Not to mention anything else, a beautiful woman who is old enough to be Jia Heng's mother-in-law has just been intimate with Jia Heng to death.

Yuan Chun was sitting not far away, picked up a piano score in his hand, parted his pink lips, and said, "The Ministry of Internal Affairs allocated money to the Hetai yamen, and the palace sent a message in advance, and there is also a shop in Chang'an, Thinking about it, there should be a lot of things that I need to discuss with your Brother Heng in detail."

In fact, she was also a little absent-minded, I'm afraid that Brother Heng is with His Highness Jinyang at this moment...

Tanchun just asked casually, or waited anxiously for Jia Heng to come and tell him about the war. Hearing this explanation, he didn't doubt it too much. He just picked up the teacup, took a sip, and pushed aside the bamboo curtain Looking at the river bank, he said in a low voice: "It's already in mid-April, I don't know how the river embankment is being repaired, and whether it can be repaired before the summer flood."

In the past few days, Tanchun came to Henan with Yuanchun, and gradually learned about Jia Heng's affairs in Henan, repairing rivers and repairing embankments to prepare for summer floods. After this matter is over, he will be able to return to Beijing.

"His Royal Highness the Princess said that this time Henan, together with the supporting Beijing camp, mobilized many soldiers and civilians, so it should be repaired?"

Holding a book in his hand, Xiangyun raised his eyes to look at Yuanchun, and said softly: "Big sister, I heard from the book that one stone of water equals nine buckets of sand, and the first to control the river is to control the sand."

Yuan Chun smiled and said, "Sister Yun also knows that the river should be controlled first to control the sand?"

Xiangyun smiled lightly and said, "This is what the book says."

Tanchun glanced at Xiangyun, and said with a smile, "Sister, although Sister Yun looks a bit playful, she knows more about Brother Heng than anyone else."

She found out in the past few days that Xiangyun just looked playful on the surface, but in fact more than half of his mind was on Brother Heng.

Hearing this, Xiang Yun's face, like a red peony, blushed quietly on his jade cheeks, and he said crisply: "Brother Heng is in Henan to rule the river, everyone is worried."

Watching the two little girls chattering, Yuan Chun also saw a quiet smile on his soft and beautiful face, but he still blamed him and said: "You two like to bicker when you are together."

At this moment, a female officer came in and said in a low voice: "Miss Yuanchun, Your Highness called some girls to the hall for a dinner, and Uncle Yongning was also waiting in the hall in advance."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Chun was surprised and said, "It's...already done."

Well, suddenly felt a slip of the tongue, turned to look at Tanchun and Xiangyun, and said, "Let's go, let's eat."

At this moment, Jia Heng was already waiting in the living room, still wearing the python suit, but the inner and outer clothes had already been changed.

At this moment, Jia Heng stared at Yuan Chun, Tan Chun, Xiang Yun and the maidservants, and called, "Big Sister, Third Sister, Sister Yun, come here."

Yuan Chun approached, under the beautiful eyebrows, the beautiful eyes looked at the boy in the python suit, with a different meaning in his eyes, he was silent for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "Why don't you see His Highness Jinyang?"

Jia Heng looked a little unnatural, and said, "Come over later."

The previous toss was not light, so Jinyang had to slowly recover his strength.

Secretly thought, it's not that Yuan Chun didn't know, so he just came to ask, and he had to go to work later in the evening.

Several people sat down and waited for Princess Jinyang and Princess Qinghe.

However, while speaking, I saw Lianxue in the distance, accompanied by a beautiful woman in a red dress and a green bun, walking slowly, and beside her was a petite girl in a blue and white double-breasted jacket skirt, It was Li Chanyue.

Everyone who had been sitting got up one after another to salute.
