Wars have never been shifted based on personal wishes, and this war is also the same. Xue Zhi has known this truth for a long time, but what Xue Zhi did not expect is that this war has been fought for four years.

The course of the war was also full of twists and turns. At the very beginning, the war faction and the peace faction fought fiercely.One side said that they should show the demeanor of a big country and not care about them, while the other side said that a small country is ungrateful and ambitious, and wants to hurt them so that they will not dare to disagree.

The two sides quarreled fiercely, but the emperor had already made a conclusion-the fight, the emperor ordered the appointment of the king of Nan'an County as the commander-in-chief to lead the battle, and at the same time Wang Ziteng and General Wei were the left and right deputy commanders to assist.Once the emperor said something, naturally no one would disagree.For the Qianxiang Kingdom, not only the war faction but also the peace faction are not in their eyes. The peace faction opposes war. They are not afraid of losing. The most important thing is that they want to maintain the demeanor of a big country. They think that light warfare is not a celestial dynasty The temperament of Shangguo.But the facts slapped the whole Daqing face up and down. While the whole capital was waiting for the news of the victory at the border, there came the report that the war had fallen into a stalemate.Before the people of Manchu came back to their senses, news spread that King Nan'an was captured by Qianxiang Kingdom, which shocked the whole capital even more.

Now the whole imperial court, no matter whether it is the main war faction or the main peace faction, has unified their thinking, and wants to let Qianxiang Kingdom, a small border country that has made them lose face, show some color, of course, there will be disharmony in the atmosphere of the whole people The voice said that it was the captured Nan'an County King faction, saying that they wanted to get married and then exchange the captured people back.

This made the main fighters in the court extremely dissatisfied, but the emperor didn't say anything, and they just said a few words. In fact, the emperor wanted to use them to let Qian Xiangguo relax his vigilance and confuse them, so that he could There is more time to dispatch troops and store supplies.

The commander was captured, which greatly affected the morale of the soldiers. The emperor did not appoint a new commander, because firstly, in the face of this defeat, the available generals were either guarding in other places or already in the southwest, so in the end, the emperor ordered the prince to evacuate Old General He Wei reorganized the army and performed crimes and meritorious deeds, and this time took advantage of the Nan'an County King's tossing time, so it seems that people from the Nan'an County King's family are still somewhat useful.

The people of Nan'an County King's family saw that the emperor didn't say yes or no to their actions, so they took it as the emperor's acquiescence after thinking about it, and felt that the actions seemed to be more prestigious.Because the princess of Nan'an County is reluctant to marry her daughter far away, she is a concubine. There are some in Nan'an County's palace, but they are children under 10 years old, so they will not choose. After visiting the wall a few times, they gave up and searched in the noble family. The final candidate was Jia Tanchun, who was elected as an envoy and married.

It is true that the actions of the Nan'an king and the others did confuse the Qianxiang country. Just when Tanchun was named the princess and went on the road to get married, a group of military officers headed by Wang Ziteng and the old general Wei suddenly launched an attack on the Qianxiang country. Attack, when the marriage team reached the southwest, Wang Ziteng and the others had recovered the lost land and were approaching Qianxiang country step by step.

This made the marriage team very embarrassed, but the emperor had no new intentions. Tanchun's marriage team was still headed towards the capital of Qianxiang Kingdom. As for the treatment, we can imagine.As expected, when the marriage team entered the capital of Qianxiang Kingdom, Qianxiang Kingdom said that the Daqing Dynasty did not take them seriously and used a counterfeit to fool them. Coupled with the fierce battle, Qianxiang Kingdom finally The lord of the country assigned Tanchun to a general who was at the front line, and replaced the bridegroom with a rooster, and married Tanchun into the general's family, and the general was not lucky, he died in a certain battle, and what happened to Tanchun? , we will not say more here.

Tanchun's marriage and unfair treatment made all the generals stationed in the southwest very angry. They stepped up to attack the city one by one, and finally occupied the capital of Qianxiang Kingdom a year later. So far, the end of this war is doomed.

When the news came that the Southwest Army had invaded the capital of Qianxiang Country, the whole capital was boiling, and at this time the hearts of the Xue family were calmed down. You must know that in the past four years, except for the beginning, Xue Chi sent some suitable personal gifts. The small equipment I used, but because of the inconvenience of communication, I never sent things there alone, and now I finally heard the news that the battle was almost over, and also learned that Xue Pan was safe, this heart that has been worried for several years Only then did I settle down.

When the emperor issued an order to welcome the return of the triumphant soldiers, the Xue family did not do anything else, but waited for the return of the soldiers from the Southwest just like everyone else.

In the past four years, the battlefield has been changing rapidly, and many things have happened in the capital.

There are not many things to say about the court, but because Father Xue was worried about his eldest son Xue Pan, he volunteered to donate five hundred stones of grain and ten thousand boxes of canned food. He is already the household servant of the third rank.

In addition, because of his solid basic skills, Xue Zhi has his own opinions on water control, and this reservoir was also proposed by him at the beginning. After the emperor ordered Xue Zhi to follow Yang Gong, Yang Gong also cultivated him wholeheartedly. The status is also rising. After the death of Yang Gong in the third year of the construction of the reservoir, the emperor received the legacy of Yang Gong and added a level to Xue Jia. At the same time, Xue Jia also became the third person in charge of the construction of the Guanting Reservoir. But now the reservoir will be completed in about two years, and the prospects are bright.

Lin Ruhai is still his bachelor these years, and now he is devoted to training his disciple and future son-in-law Shen Mo.Even so, Lin Ruhai's health has improved a lot.

Compared with Xue's father and son's double promotion and Lin Ruhai's peace and stability, Jia's one promotion and one demotion.Jia Lian of the big house, although he is not good at studying, but he has some skills. He followed his uncle's advice and came to Jinling to start as a small official. After three years of examination, he was also excellent. He didn't go back to the capital in the past four years. What is his job in Jinling now? It is booming, and the official rank has also been promoted by half.In comparison, Erfang was not so lucky.First, it was because Jia Baoyu offended Prince Zhongxiao, and at the same time, the princess secretly pushed a few hands. Jia Yuanchun in the palace was very difficult. He was pregnant twice and failed to keep it. Now his body has completely collapsed. Nearly running out of oil, the imperial doctor also said that it was just a matter of living.Yuanchun's loss of power in the palace and the decline of Jia's second wife were also one of the reasons why Nan'an County King chose Tanchun to marry him.In addition, after Jia Zheng took office in Jiangxi Grain Road, because of the shortage of grain and grass in the southwest, he had to transfer it from Jiangxi. As a result, Jiangxi only provided one-third of the grain. In the end, Jia Zheng was accused of corruption because of his family's running around and Shi Taijun's running around, but the emperor still used Jia Zheng's official position on the charge of lax control.

The ups and downs of the imperial court are also different among small families.

First of all, Xue Pan's wife, Wei Shi, gave birth to a fat boy six months after being sent back to Beijing. When the good news from the Southwest came, the princess was diagnosed to be two months pregnant.Xue Hao married off after Jiji, and now Xue Hao has been sent to a small town in Hebei with Deng Lei, and the last time he came back from his family, he also said that he was pregnant.

Needless to say, the Lin family is stable, because they are already engaged, and at the same time, Lin Ruhai has accepted Shen Mo's training. Lin Daiyu is now living a promising life, and she is making steady progress towards becoming a lady.

Comparatively speaking, compared to the turmoil of the Lin family, the Jia family is much more exciting.

First of all, Ningguo Mansion has been involved several times. If Jia Jing hadn't just passed away, what would happen to Ningguo Mansion now.

Needless to say, the Rongguo Mansion and Dafang's side are all in Jinling, far away from the capital. They just know that Wang Xifeng gave Jia Lian another son, and Ping'er gave birth to all the concubine daughters, that is, Yingchun married The Song family, a family of merchants in Jinling, received a dowry gift of 2 taels for Jia Amnesty. Even so, because of Jia Lian's status, Mrs. Xing and Wang Xifeng were not indifferent to Yingchun. The conditions are very good. After Yingchun gave birth to the eldest son, she has gained a foothold in the Song family.

The Jia family's second bedroom was quite lively.First offended Prince Zhongxiao, Jia Baoyu suffered a lot, but later because Jia Zhengwai released Beijing, Jia Baoyu was resurrected in place with full blood, and it was a mess for a while.At the same time, the empress ordered another group of girls and Jia Baoyu to move into the Grand View Garden, which made Jia Baoyu feel like a fish in water, playing with the little sisters every day, completely giving up on homework.The empress also meant to let Xue Hao and Lin Daiyu also move into the Grand View Garden, but the two families resisted the pressure and ignored the verbal order, but the three girls from the Kongqian family and Shi Xiangyun lived in the Grand View Garden. went in.In order to attract Jia Baoyu's attention, these four girls also led Jia Baoyu to have fun every day, so Jia Baoyu never thought of studying.Among the sisters in the boudoir, Jia Baoyu enjoyed eating and having fun, but outside, Jia Baoyu's reputation became worse and worse. Many princes and children who used to think Jia Baoyu was a good person now don't think much of him now.

Over the years, Mrs. Wang has been caught in a frenzy of accumulating money, lending money abroad, and killed several people. At the same time, in the name of the empress and Jia Zheng, she collected a lot of money and settled several lawsuits. , this courage is getting bigger and bigger.

After Jia Zheng was escorted back to Beijing, although in the end it was only his official position that was sacked, Jia Zheng was thin-skinned. After returning to Beijing, he did not go out to socialize, and stayed at home every day. He gave Jia Baoyu a hard time and forced Jia Baoyu to study every day. Jia Baoyu was depressed for a while because of this.
