The Red Mansions

Chapter 817 Jin Yang: I know...

In the evening, Jia Heng, Yuan Chun, Xiang Yun, Tan Chun and others had a good time in Chaoyang Palace, and they had to go back. The little girls went back to the courtyard, taking a bath, soaking their feet and resting.

In the hall of the backyard, Jia Heng sat down, looked up at Chen Xiao, who was sitting alone drinking tea, and said nothing, and asked, "Xiaoxiao, I'm going to the eldest princess's mansion, will you go?"

In fact, when visiting Chaotian Palace, Ru Xiangyun and Bao Qin were curious about who this big sister with a cold face and a sheathed sword hanging from her waist was.

"Go, I'm a little tired now after shopping for a long time." Hearing this, Chen Xiao glanced at Jia Heng with her clear eyes under her willow eyebrows, said with a calm face, and took a sip from the teacup.

What should she go over there to see, how he and Xianning are flirting with each other?And in the words of the young man in front of him, does Xianning look a little like her?
Really...

Hearing this, Jia Heng breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "Then you can rest at home, I'll go first."

Chen Xiao caught a trace of lightness in the young man's eyebrows, Chen Xiaoyu's face was covered with frost, and said with a cold snort: "Then I'll go."

Jia Heng was stunned, and said softly: "You better not go, rest at home."

In fact, I still don't really want to go with Xiaoxiao, otherwise I don't know how I should feel when I see him and Jin Yang lingering to death.

"I'll go with you." Chen Ling frowned and said.

Jia Heng nodded and said, "Okay, you just happened to be a lookout for Xianning."

Chen Xiao squinted her eyes, lightly shook off Jia Heng's hand, and snorted softly, apparently Jia Heng was quite annoyed by the matter of looking out for Xianning.

Jia Heng said: "Okay, let's go, it's getting late, let's set off."

Jinyang Princess Palace
The autumn night is hazy and cool as water, there are no pedestrians on the surrounding streets, only the occasional barking of dogs is transmitted to the distant night.

The two red lanterns under the eaves of the corridor have already been lit, reflecting the words "Jinyang Princess Mansion" on the one-foot-square tung oil wood plaque on the majestic and majestic gate tower, reflecting a little bit of festiveness.

The guards with swords standing under the red porch and the guards in the dark Jinyi mansion are guarding. In the attic surrounded by trees in the backyard, soft lights shine on the water near the lake through the window screens. The water is of the same color. With one blow, the ripples in the lake cut light and shadow on the rocks by the lake.

Princess Jinyang, Princess Xianning, and Li Chanyue just finished eating and drinking tea.

They just ordered the female officer and maid to remove the cups, dishes and chopsticks, and they sat together, staring at each other.

Princess Xianning sighed lightly and said, "Why don't you find a book to read."

Li Chanyue said disconsolately: "It would be great if Mr. Jia was here, and there are still stories to listen to."

Princess Jinyang smiled and looked at the two little girls who were lost, and said, "Don't you two usually have a good time? You dance so much, why doesn't he come over?"

Princess Xianning paused for a moment, and said quietly: "This side is not as lively as that of Ningguo Mansion."

In the past few days, she and Chanyue have rehearsed some dances, which are all the styles that her husband likes.

Princess Jinyang chuckled lightly and said, "The last time I came back from Guangdong Hai, I came here first, and I never let anyone go home."

As she got older, she felt more and more that Jia Heng's appearance was a godsend luck to her.

When we met later, she was already withered, and when we met earlier, he was still a child. I still remember the touch of the Three Kingdoms script delivered to that boy last autumn, and we gradually got together.

Princess Xianning thought for a while, took Princess Jinyang's hand, and said coquettishly, "Auntie, why don't you send Lianxue to deliver a letter to Mr.

Princess Jinyang rolled her eyes at Princess Xianning, but ignored Princess Xianning.

"Then I'll go find Mr. tomorrow." Princess Xianning said angrily.

Princess Jinyang said: "You go to find him, but he doesn't have time to accompany you."

Li Chanyue took Princess Xianning's hand, and she said with persuasion on her beautiful face, "Cousin."

Princess Jinyang suppressed the chaotic thoughts in her heart, looked at Lianxue with beautiful eyes full of water, and said in a warm voice: "Lianxue, go and ask Qiufang to bring over the latest account book."

At this time, seeing Princess Xianning and Li Chanyue getting up to leave, the beauty frowned, and said softly: "What are you doing in a hurry to go back? Also help me calculate this month's account books, and I will always be a housekeeper in the future. I don't know what to do with the accounts Can it work?"

Princess Xianning had no choice but to hold Li Chanyue's hand, sat down again, looked at the beauty with clear eyes, and asked, "What account book is this?"

She felt that her aunt had also acted like a resentful wife these two days, but her aunt hid it better.

Princess Jinyang frowned slightly, her red lips parted slightly, and she said softly: "There are some recent bank account books of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and some are some of your Mr. Jia's shops in Beijing. You can help me look at them later. You are making a profit, so you can tell him later, don't just play with Chanyue all day long."

Many of Jia Heng's properties were handed over to Yuan Chun. Of course, if he arrived in Beijing, some of them might also be distributed to Baochai.

In the original novel of the Red Chamber, Baochai used to hide at home and didn't take much care of the Xue family's property, but she was very concerned about the right of the housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion, because this was the authority of the hostess.

When Princess Xianning heard the words, the clear and bright eyes under the willow-leaf eyebrows lit up, as if the voice of flying springs and flowing jade sounded, she said: "Then Chanyue and I will help take a look."

Princess Jinyang glanced at Princess Xianning, and said in her heart, she must find a serious job for Xianning and Chanyue in the future, and she can't always pester him to dance some indecent dance, which is something that seduces the mind.

Not long after, Lianxue led Fu Qiufang to bring all the account books and said: "Your Highness, this is for the past six months, and there are more detailed income and expenditure account books, which have not been sent home yet."

Princess Xianning raised her head, her bright eyes were bright and translucent, and asked, "Where is the property in Yongningbo's mansion?"

Fu Qiufang looked at the noble girl and said in a soft voice, "Princess, they are all here."

As he spoke, he handed over a stack of books, and took the books with one slender hand.

Li Chanyue's eyebrows and eyes were curved like a crescent moon, and she said in a soft voice: "Cousin, I'll read this book first."

Princess Xianning picked up a book, browsed the records on it, and picked up a brush to record on the side.

Princess Jinyang also took an account book and looked through it, mainly the account book of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. When the three of them went their own way and immersed themselves in helping Jia Heng manage money, a brightly dressed female official stood under the eaves and said loudly: " Your Highness, Uncle Yongning is here."

Several people in the hall were shocked when they heard the words, Princess Xianning and Li Chanyue all dropped the account books in their hands and got up when they heard the words.

Princess Xianning said softly: "Auntie, Chanyue and I will go to meet you."

Princess Jinyang was also a little bit happy, but she didn't stop her anymore, she looked at her cousins ​​who looked excited, and said in a low voice: "Go."

After a while, listening to the creaking stairs, several figures of different heights were reflected on the screen in front of me.

From the corridor, Jia Heng and Chen Xiao followed Princess Xianning and Li Chanyue to the second floor of the attic, bypassed several screens, and entered the reception hall, where they could see the beautiful woman in red dress and peach heart bun sitting upright On the cushion, she has a graceful appearance and a sweet smile.

Jia Heng looked at the beautiful woman and called out, "His Royal Highness."

Because Chen Xiao was accompanying him, he didn't want to be too public.

Princess Jinyang put down the account book in her hand, stood up, tried her best to keep her calm voice, still unable to hide her surprise, and said softly: "Ziyu, you are here."

Just as he was about to walk closer, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Chen Xiao who was at the side, his beautiful eyes sparkled, and he said in surprise, "Xiao'er is here too."

Chen Xiao approached, bowed respectfully to the beauty and said, "Auntie."

The eldest princess of Jinyang nodded her head, and the beautiful eyes under Chunshan's black eyebrows were as soft as water, and said softly: "Xiao'er went to Guangdong Hai this time, and fought a battle with Jurchen, hard work."

Although her previous statement about Ziyu's life experience was just a white lie, she still felt a little distressed for this niece who was wandering in the rivers and lakes.

As he said that, he pulled Chen Xiao's slender plain hand closer, looked at the girl, and said softly: "I eat and sleep in the open every day, and I look dark and thin."

Feeling the caring words of her relatives, Chen Xiao lowered her eyebrows and felt a warm current in her heart. She raised her eyes to look at the graceful beauty, and said in a low voice, "It's not hard."

The girl was originally not good at words, but she has become more reticent these years, that is to say, Jia Heng can tease Chen Xiao more often.

Jia Heng turned to look at Chen Xiao, smiled and said, "Xiaoxiao has been quite tired in the past two months, she has been on the saddle."

Jin Yangxiu frowned, and glared at Jia Heng with her beautiful eyes like water, and asked, "You didn't bully her, did you?"

Xiaoxiao called me now?When did the relationship become so close?
Jia Heng looked away from Chen Xiao's face and said in a low voice, "What am I bullying her for?"

Chen Xiao looked at Jia Heng, and there seemed to be swords and swords flickering in his clear eyes. After a while, doubts arose in his heart. Why did the conversation between these two people have an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.

...Old husband and wife.

The eldest princess Jinyang turned to look at Princess Xianning, with a cool look on her beautiful face, she said softly: "Xianning, you and Chanyue take Xiao'er back to the room first, and I will discuss business with Uncle Yongning. "

Xianning and Chanyue: "..."

What can you do?
Chen Xiao: "???"

Suspicion welled up in the depths of the girl's heart, but immediately, she felt that she might be thinking too much. Last time, she didn't mean to promise Chanyue to him.

Maybe the two of them have something secret to say.

Princess Xianning suppressed the disappointment in her heart, took Chen Xiao's hand, and said in a clear voice: "Cousin, let's go back to the wing to talk."

Li Chanyue looked at the young man in green and said in a low voice, "Mr. Jia, I'm leaving first."

Jia Heng looked at Princess Xianning and Li Chanyue, and said softly: "Go first, I will look for you later."

As Li Chanyue said, following Princess Xianning and Chen Xiao went down to the attic, Lianxue was left waiting in the building for a while.

Just after the few people left, Jia Heng looked at Princess Jinyang, feeling the thoughts of the past few days welling up in his heart, stretched out his hand to wrap around Jinyang's waist, and said in a low voice, "Li'er."

As he spoke, he leaned closer to hold the familiar tenderness and beauty.

Princess Jinyang only had Jia Heng in her eyes at the moment, she clasped her hands on the young man's back, and slightly closed her beautiful eyes.

The candlelight on the high table passed through the gap between the two cheeks, reflecting the flawless white cheeks and the mountain-like eyebrows, a sense of tranquility and beauty overflowed, while the emerald earrings on the earlobes gently swayed brightly. Huimang.

After a long time, Princess Jinyang opened her beautiful eyes, under her nose, her red lips parted slightly, and she breathed lightly, while the cheeks on both sides of Furong Yumian were already as red as blood, and she looked at Jia Heng with shining eyes, As if wanting to describe the boy's face inch by inch to the bottom of his heart, the golden voice could not hide his joy, and said: "I haven't asked you yet, how did Duoduo be captured in this naval battle at Chongmingsha?"

Although he had learned about Jia Heng's big victory from various channels in the past two days, the joy he felt facing the parties at this moment was still the same.

Jia Heng took the beauty's slender catkins by the arm, sat down on the bed in the inner room nearby, and said: "This time, the right time, place and people are all in place, otherwise, it would be easy to annihilate the invading bandits, but it would not be easy to capture Prince Jurchen alive." Easy."

Listening to Jia Heng's narration in a flat tone, Princess Jinyang smiled lightly on her icy and jade-skinned face, and said in surprise: "I'm afraid the emperor's brother will think it's unbelievable."

Jia Heng said in a clear voice: "This time the credit is the same, and it's not the Eastern captive slave chieftain, and the emperor will not marry Xianning to me."

The eldest princess of Jinyang angrily said: "Is the emperor brother the one you should call? You should call your father-in-law when you go back."

If the call goes smoothly, I'm afraid there will be big troubles in the future.

Jia Heng said, "Li'er, I miss you."

Princess Jinyang met the warm and jade-like eyes, hugged Jia Heng tightly, leaned her head against the boy's arms, and said: "I miss you too."

The two hugged each other and talked, Jia Heng said softly: "Li'er."

The eldest princess of Jinyang raised her rosy cheeks, a faint blush stretched from her cheeks to her ears, and she said with a smile: "You really want to capture that slave chief, I'm afraid you can really call him brother!" .”

That handsome young man back then is now a minister of the great man's kingdom, the kind of joy of being raised by one hand, ordinary people don't understand.

Jia Heng whispered, "Really?"

"I'm just joking." Princess Jinyang caught a gleam of light in the young man's eyes, her heart was both sweet and inexplicably sour.

"Okay, when it comes to that day, I don't care." Princess Jinyang stretched out her slender hand, gently stroking Jia Heng's sculpted cheek, with a smile like water in her charming and rippling eyes, and whispered Said: "It's good for us."

Jia Heng held Li Ren's hand and said softly: "In a few days, I will lead Chanyue and Xianning around Jinling."

He didn't seem to have wandered around Jinling City with Jinyang, or after the two of them got together, they didn't go anywhere except Shenjing Xishan.

Princess Jinyang hesitated for a while, and said in a low voice: "There are too many people, it's not good."

"I'm just inviting the little princess." Jia Heng smiled lightly, and said warmly: "After a while, it's time to return to Beijing. We probably won't be able to go back together."

Jinyang still has to deal with the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Jinling, and his class teacher will escort Duoduo when he returns to Beijing, so it may not be convenient for him to go back together.

Princess Jinyang said softly: "Then wait a few more days and see if there is anything else going on at the Transfer Department of the Huaihe River Capital. If everything is settled, I will go back with you."

Jia Heng gave a "hmm" and said, "Okay, let's talk about this later."

He always wanted to give Jinyang a child.

Princess Jinyang put her arms around Jia Heng's neck, and the two headed for the bed in the inner room.

On the other side, several young and youthful girls walked quickly along the corridor towards the backyard. It was autumn night, and the night wind was cold and cold, passing through the corridor and penetrating into the skin along the dress.

Chen Xiao frowned, still savoring the conversations of several people in her heart, still unable to guess the reason, raised her eyes to Princess Xianning, and asked, "Xianning, what do he and aunt usually say?"

Princess Xianning Yurong paused for a moment, dodged her eyes, and said, "It's just talking about some business of the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

It's not easy to tell my cousin about this kind of thing.

"Business?" Chen Xiao looked thoughtful, suppressing the doubts in her heart.

Of course, it is indeed a big business worth hundreds of millions.

Following Princess Xianning came to the wing to take her seat, at this moment, Li Chan's gloomy brows under the crescent eyebrows looked curious, and asked, "Cousin Xiao, you and Mr. Jia went to Yuehai, and met many Hongyi?"

Looking at the girl with bright eyes and bright teeth, and a clear voice, Chen Xiaoqing's frosty face softened a bit, and said in a clear voice: "Those red hairs are not all red, they are also black haired and black eyes like you and me. But the appearance is indeed different from ordinary people, in fact, there is a Westerner in Ningguo Mansion right now, and Chanyue can go and see it in her spare time."

"I heard from Big Sister Yuanchun that she seems to be the daughter of Governor Haojing." Li Chanyue said in a pretty voice.

Because Jia Heng often called Yuan Chun her big sister, Li Chanyue also started from Jia Heng's side.

Princess Xianning poured two cups of tea for the two of them, and asked, "Sister Xiao was in Chongmingsha earlier, did you see that Mr. Duoduo fought against each other?"

Compared to the fact that she has never been in battle to kill the enemy, the cousin is more like a female general who charges into the battle. The husband did not want to take her with him last time.

Chen Ling looked at the charming face that looked like rose petals, and said, "It took only five or six rounds to fight with Duduo, and Duduo was captured alive."

That man's martial arts skills are indeed extraordinary, and his strength is also quite strong.

When it comes to strength, it is inevitable to think of the scene of bumping back and forth with the twin concubines in her arms. The girl's heart skipped a beat, she frowned secretly, and smoothed the rippling lake of her heart.

When Princess Xianning heard the words, her bright eyes glowed, as if she was imagining the scenes of the fight, and asked: "Sister Xiao, can you tell me how the master fought?"

Chen Xiao's face froze, she turned her eyes to Princess Xianning, and said, "Wait until you ask your husband?"

Princess Xianning said: "Then wait for the gentleman to come, and I will ask again."

The three sisters were chatting one after another, Chen Ling suddenly got up and said, "You two chat first, I'll go and relieve myself."

The girl came out of the courtyard of Princess Xianning and Li Chanyue, walked along the veranda towards the attic, walked to the moon gate and stood still, looking at the lighted attic, her eyes flickered coldly under Yingxiu's sword-like eyebrows .

She wanted to hear what the two of them were talking about.

At the moment, on the second floor of the attic, Jia Heng hugged Princess Jinyang. The two of them had already removed their clothes and were lying on the bed.

Princess Jinyang looked at the boy with a snowman in his arms, her plump cheeks were rosy, and her voice was soft and charming, she asked, "With the Hongyi cannon, it's really easier to deal with girls."

Jia Heng's voice was a little ambiguous, and he said: "At least in a short period of time, the combat power of the Han army can be improved a little bit, and when we use troops after next year, we can also increase the odds of winning."

Princess Jinyang put her arms around Jia Heng's neck, looked at the handsome young man, and said with relief: "Although it is a victory, you should not underestimate the enemy."

"Well, don't worry." Jia Heng said softly, his face paused, he felt that the late autumn in October was no longer cold, but the room was still warm, his eyes deepened a little, and he said in a low voice.

Princess Jinyang opened her beautiful eyes slightly, snorted, and glanced at the boy angrily.

Jia Heng looked at the snow-skinned beauty, leaned down, and said in a gentle voice: "Li'er, I'll come to see you often these days, so I hope I have a child sooner."

Recently, he feels that his strength seems to have stabilized, which may be because his physical problems have gradually eased.

At this moment, Princess Jinyang's cheeks were burning like fire, she turned her head aside, and said shyly, "You spend every day with the sisters in the mansion, so...how can you still have time?"

"As long as I'm here in Jinling, I'll have time whenever you come to me." Jia Heng said softly, then bent down suddenly, put his arms around Jinyang's shaved shoulders, then lay down again, raised his eyes, looked To the majestic and magnificent beauty.

The eldest princess of Jinyang snorted softly, her jade face was as bright as peaches and plums, a slight blush had already appeared, and she said in embarrassment: "Smart words."

It was not easy for her to ask what happened to Princess Chu and Princess Beijing. She had just returned the day before yesterday, and the person she sent to Ningguo Mansion to inquire said that the two princesses were looking for him.

I don't know what it is.

While the two of them were talking, a girl named Zijin Chan was sent under the ridge hanging from the southwest corner of the attic. She looked at the two figures in the direction of the bed through clusters of thin lights, and she reached out to break the paper on the window. , with the help of a candle on the high table, looking towards the inner room.

A cold and jade face changed slightly, and the heart lake was already turbulent.

Well, she seems to recognize this style, and that demon concubine of the Zhen family really likes it...

The girl suppressed the chaotic thoughts in her heart, squinted her eyes, and stared at the usually graceful and dignified beauty. At this moment, the cloud bun was slightly messed up, and the golden hairpin and pearl flowers were shaking non-stop, she felt unbelievable.

How…

No, she should have guessed it a long time ago, a graceful and beautiful woman who has been widowed for many years, and a youth who is in his prime and unparalleled in the world, Wu Xun, the two of them get together, plus his methods...

But, do Xianning and Chanyue know about this matter?

Chen Xiaoxiu frowned, reflecting the flickering light in Baiyu Guanyin's clear eyes, showing a thoughtful look, and immediately, a light flashed in her heart, and she suddenly remembered the abnormal behavior of the two of them just now.

Should have known?

Just when the girl was thinking strangely, Princess Jinyang suddenly said in a voice as clear as water: "Did you also take Xiao'er down?"

Chen Xiao was about to leave, when she heard this, her delicate body like a willow branch paused slightly, and looked at the two people who were tossing each other, feeling ashamed and annoyed, and suddenly wanted to hear what the young man said about her behind her back.

Jia Heng closed her eyes slightly, and said with a trembling voice, "Xiaoxiao has been lonely all these years."

Princess Jinyang frowned suddenly, couldn't restrain her snort, and said with a sneer, "I already know that she has similar features to Xian Ningsheng, how could you turn a blind eye?"

The couple have also been together for a long time, and the beauty can also capture some of Jia Heng's secret thoughts after getting along for a long time.

Chen Xiao: "???"

How does she look like Xianning?
Jia Heng paused, and said softly: "Actually, it has nothing to do with Xianning. Xiaoxiao has been wandering the rivers and lakes all these years, and she has been alone in the wind and rain. I quite like Xiaoxiao's temperament, bright and generous."

At this moment, listening to the boy's praise, Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment, then her clear eyes flashed, and she sighed inwardly.

She has long known the absurdity of him and the twin concubines of the Zhen family, isn't it...

After that, the two stopped talking, only the strange voice came to Chen Xiao's ears in the silent night, and the girl couldn't help but smile bitterly.

But she didn't leave for a while, but it didn't take long before she felt her whole body was so soft that she could hardly hold on, the girl got up quickly, fearing she would fall.

"Go and see Xianning, it's been a long time, Xiao'er should be suspicious." The eldest princess of Jinyang's jade face is as beautiful as a peach pistil after two menstrual months, her fragrant cheeks are frozen with snow, her temples are scattered, and a few strands of black hair come from her temples Hanging down, sweat sticking to his flushed face with relish, he took Jia Heng's hand.

Jia Heng thought to himself, what is suspicious, Xiaoxiao just made a scene on the spot.

The flustered breath just now had leaked out Xingzang, if he guessed right, it should be Xiaoxiao.

However, he didn't bother anymore, and acted according to his words: "Then I will find you later."

The eldest princess of Jinyang tilted her head, propped up one arm, and the silk quilt slipped off, revealing her shoulders as smooth as fat and round as snow, caressing her swollen belly, said "um", and said softly: "You When you go down, call Lianxue over by the way."

Jia Heng put on his clothes, straightened the messy skirts, and said softly, "Then I'll go and see Xianning and Chanyue."
