Survive in the world of Red Mansions

The king of Nan'an County has won the first tentative battle since the first time, and his confidence has greatly increased.If he led the army to completely defeat Qianxiang Kingdom this time, the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion might be able to regain control of the Southwest Army. Even if the emperor was unwilling, he had to consider the reactions of other generals.

Because of the dissuasion of several former subordinates of the old Nan'an king, Zheng Jin, the king of Nan'an County, won the first tentative victory, and finally did not immediately launch an attack on Qianxiang **.In the following several small-scale battles, most of the troops led by Nanzhuang County King Zheng Jin won the victory, so he felt that his father's old subordinates were too cautious.

He has been here for so long, and he has also fought each other. He feels that the army of Qianxiang Kingdom is only mediocre, and there is really no need to be so cautious, so he decides to launch a large-scale war, so that he can completely solve the problem of this tiny place as soon as possible. Akane Fragrant Country.

In another war with Qianxiang Kingdom, this time Qianxiang Kingdom was led by the first prince himself. After another defeat against Zheng Zheng's army, the first prince led his troops to retreat continuously. Zheng Jin, the king of Nan'an County, wanted to He decisively eliminated Qian Xiangguo, and decided to take advantage of the situation to pursue.

After chasing for a certain distance, the generals following Zheng Zheng thought that if they moved forward, the frontier of Qianxiang Kingdom was unfamiliar with the terrain, so it would be dangerous to advance rashly, and there might be an ambush ahead.But Zheng Jin feels that the strength of Qianxiang Kingdom is just like this after fighting against Qianxiang Kingdom these days, and there is really nothing to worry about.Another thing is that the army of Qianxiang Kingdom today is led by the eldest prince of the enemy country. If the first prince can be captured in one fell swoop through this battle, the opponent will definitely bow his head and become a minister. But at least he can keep the title of King of Nan'an County.

But this time, Zheng Jin, the king of Nan'an County, was really out of luck. On the way to pursue the eldest prince of Qianxiang Kingdom, he was unfortunately targeted by other generals, and he was ambushed by the other party. Of the 2 people who followed in this duel, less than [-] came back alive. As the main general, Zheng Zheng, was unfortunately captured!

After the news of the defeat and capture of King Zheng Jin of Nan'an County came back to the capital, the court was in an uproar, and the emperor Li Min was furious.

Today, I received the urgent battle at [-] miles from the southwest, and knowing that Zheng Jin was captured after his defeat, I really wish I could slash him.A military commander of the dignified dynasty, it’s nothing more than a failure. After the failure, the marshal who led the army was captured alive. What kind of face did he have to survive? The royal palace of Nan'an County ransacked the family and exterminated the family.

Besides, since the coach Guan Jin was captured in the southwest, on the one hand, he sent an urgent battle report to the capital for [-] miles, asking for help. no.

Before the start of this war, Qianxiang Kingdom gathered the strength of the whole country and prepared for many years, but from the beginning of the war to now, except for the surprise at the beginning, after a big victory, Qianxiang Kingdom's advantage is not obvious.This time the eldest prince took advantage of the impatience of the coach of the Celestial Dynasty, and set up an ambush to capture Zheng Jin, the king of Nan'an County. Qianxiang's army wanted to launch an offensive against the southwestern defenders of the Celestial Dynasty, but after several consecutive attacks, they did not receive the expected results. , I had no choice but to give up.

Since then, Qianxiang Kingdom has finally gained self-knowledge. Even if they use the power of the whole country to shake the Kingdom of Heaven, they are still too far away, and it will be futile after all. Take captives, negotiate peace with the Celestial Dynasty, and obtain the benefits you want.

While Qian Xiangguo was thinking about how to get more benefits from the Celestial Dynasty, the imperial court was actively preparing for the battle, vowing to take the shame of being captured by a bloody coach.

Since receiving the Babaili Battle Report from the Southwest Defenders to the capital, not to mention the fury of today's thunder, even the Supreme Emperor, who hadn't shown up for a long time, was so angry.The land of barbarians, the tiny country, has always been a vassal state of my Kingdom of the Heavenly Dynasty. It was fine if there was a small fight in the past, but now it is so daring!There is also Zheng Jin, the king of Nan'an County. Although winning or losing is a common matter in military affairs, it is really unacceptable that his coach was captured after the defeat. To be captured alive? !

Since the rebellion of the third prince, the Supreme Emperor has had a slight stroke and his hands and feet are not very sharp, so he is unwilling to see the present and other courtiers again.Knowing about the affairs of Qianxiang Kingdom this time, it is rare that she did not confront the emperor, but instead fully supported the present.

When the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Households and other relevant yamen were preparing to send troops again, Qian Xiangguo proposed peace talks with the Celestial Dynasty at this time.

Peace Talk!

The emperor doesn't care about the king of Nan'an County at all. If you want to kill him, you can do whatever you want. If it weren't for the time it would take for the Celestial Dynasty to dispatch troops and prepare food and grass again, the emperor would not even care about Qian Xiangguo, just to delay the time However, the Celestial Dynasty can only send people to deal with the envoys of Qianxiang Kingdom.Qianxiang Kingdom's appetite was so strong that it asked the Celestial Dynasty to send a princess to marry her, and asked for a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry, rare medicinal materials, silk brocades and so on.

Nan'an County King's Mansion went up and down. During this period of time, the whole thing fell into a kind of panic. Now that the County King was defeated and captured, I don't know if the County King can come back alive. If he can come back, will the Emperor let Nan'an County go? The palace is an unknown, so during this period of time, the princess and concubine of Nan'an County are looking for people to intercede, hoping to save their family members.

After the peace talks, knowing the request from Qianxiang Kingdom, the Nan'an County Palace seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, and only hoped that the court could meet the request of Qianxiang Kingdom and save the prince's life.

The emperor scoffed at Qianxiang Kingdom's request. They really dared to mention the princess's marriage, gold, silver and jewelry. Regarding the actions of the Nan'an County prince's mansion, the emperor watched them jump around, promising money everywhere to make people intercede for Zheng Jin in the court, There is no time for him to care, just urge the ministries to prepare for the war.

The emperor wished that Zheng Jin and other captured generals would all die for the country, but the fact is that everything will not always go as expected.If the children of the military officer family want to stand out, they must have military exploits. This time Zheng Jin is the coach, and there are not many children from other noble families who followed him in the past.In the current situation, not only the Nan'an County Palace is anxious, but also those who have children in the army are also anxious, so after knowing the requirements of Qianxiang Kingdom, these people, like the Nan'an County Palace, are active everywhere, only hoping that the court will satisfy them. Qian Xiangguo's request, so that they can release him.

There are too many people begging for mercy, the emperor can't care less about the influence, the final result is to prepare compensation and marry the princess, but although the emperor agreed, the royal family will not let the real princess go to marry, most of the money is prepared by the king of Nan'an County .Although the princess of Nan'an County wanted her prince to come back, she didn't want her own daughter to go to that barbarian land to suffer. Later, the old princess came up with a good way. Qian Xiangguo only said that she wanted the princess to get married, and didn't specify who it was. It's good to recognize a righteous daughter, and the princess of the county also thinks so.

Wanting to recognize a righteous daughter is not just a matter of choice, there must be a bit of royal princess style. After the princess and concubine of Nan'an County picked up the family they knew well, they thought of the girl from the Rongguo Mansion, the best friend of their mansion.They have also met the three girls in Rongguo Mansion, they are outstanding in appearance, dignified, and are said to be proficient in poetry, such girls only need a little j□j from the nanny.After some private transactions, Nan'an County Prince's Mansion and Rongguo Mansion finally got their wish and accepted Tanchun, the adopted daughter.

Tanchun is well aware of the reason why the Prince of Nan'an County accepted her as a foster daughter. As a concubine married to another country, it may be difficult to see her relatives again in this life. She only thinks that it is approaching the age of Chi Chi, but she has never been clear for the rest of her life. , it’s better to give it a go, and there may be other good luck. Besides, as long as the Rongguo Mansion and the Nan’an County Prince’s Mansion reach an agreement, who will listen to Tanchun’s opinion? Whether you want to or not, there is no way to change all this. .

It's a pity that Tanchun is just a girl living in the inner house, no matter how smart she is, her insights will be limited after all.She didn't understand that the emperor had completely disliked the palace of Nan'an County this time, and he didn't intend to let go of Qianxiang Country. While negotiating with Qianxiang Country, the dispatch of troops for the expedition was almost completed.

Nan'an County Palace acted very quickly. After reaching an agreement with Jia's family, they held a banquet the next day to invite some family members and friends, and let everyone know the fact that Nan'an County Palace recognized Tanchun as a righteous daughter.Tanchun was recognized as a righteous daughter here, and the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion immediately asked for the canonization of Tanchun as the princess. The emperor didn't mind giving the adopted daughter of the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion a princess title. Anyway, he will not pay to support this county today. Lord, it's just a nice name to give.

Before Tanchun married away, he specially hosted a banquet in the Grand View Garden for a few little sisters.Tanchun was crowned princess, and the servants in the mansion suddenly became enthusiastic about the people in Tanchun's hospital. This time, the banquet was quite rich, but thinking of Tanchun's distant marriage, everyone had no appetite and looked very sad.

Tanchun was married as the adopted daughter of Nan'an County Prince's Mansion, so Jia's Mansion did not prepare any dowry, and it was all prepared by Nan'an County Prince's Mansion.However, when Daiyu left after attending the banquet, she still handed over the prepared makeup, a whole set of gold silk jewelry, and another 1000 taels of silver to the servant.

Because of the urgency of time, Tanchun didn't wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival this year. On the ninth day of the eighth month, he finally embarked on the journey of marrying Qianxiang country.Except for Aunt Zhao who was sad about Tanchun's far-away marriage in Rongguo Mansion, everyone else was only happy that there was a princess in their mansion. Up and down's desire for pleasure, eating and drinking at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet will not be affected at all.

When the atmosphere in the capital was tense due to the Southwest War, Yingchun's wedding day also came quietly.

Of the few girls in the Jia family, Yuanchun is probably the only daughter-in-law. Because she has Mrs. Wang as her biological mother, she has saved a dowry for her since she was a child, and the other three springs have not been treated so well.But when Yuanchun entered the palace, except for the wood used in the Grand View Garden, although Yuanchun could not bring it in when he first entered the palace, he later entered the fourth prince's mansion, until he became a concubine, and was spent by Mrs. Wang on Yuanchun. .

Yingchun's husband's family is the Zuo Shilang's residence of the Ministry of Industry, and it is also the family of a third-rank official who holds real power. Although she is a concubine's step-wife, if the dowry is too simple, it is really not decent.Because all the dowries for Yingchun had to be purchased now, after consideration, Mother Jia decided to ask the public to pay 5000 taels of silver, the old lady took 3000 taels herself, and Jia Amnesty also gave 1000 taels, and handed them over to Sister Jia Lianfeng and her husband.

Since Wang Xifeng had a miscarriage last time, she had recuperated for a few months and did not take over the affairs. Later, after Xue Baochai and the other three took over the affairs, the servants in the mansion made a mess. Mother Jia asked repeatedly, and Sister Feng took over the affairs again.However, since Sister Feng became the housekeeper again, she no longer foolishly used her dowry to subsidize the daily expenses of the mansion, and even reached out to deduct some benefits from time to time.

Because Yuanchun is in the palace, palace servants often come to the mansion to beat the autumn wind, Sister Feng doesn't care about other things now, if there are palace servants who come to ask for money, report directly to Mrs. Wang and ask Mrs. Wang to give the money, anyway, Sister Feng will never take a cent money out.Now that Sister Feng is like this, Mrs. Wang is also very helpless. In the past, when the palace servants like this came to ask for money, they would get it directly from the public house.

Wang Xifeng directly pushes the affairs of the servants in the palace to Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang is also reluctant to take money from her private house, but if she doesn't, she is afraid that these little servants will cause trouble for Yuanchun in the palace.

For the furniture in the dowry of Yingchun, there is no need to think about good wood. After the engagement, I found some wood to make furniture.For the antique calligraphy, paintings and jade ornaments in the dowry, the old lady also knew that such a small amount of money could not buy any good things, so she asked Sister Feng to pick out from the warehouse in the mansion, and reluctantly picked out some suitable dowry items.

I left 1000 taels of silver for pressing boxes, and bought a three-and-a-half-acre Zhuangzi near Zhili, and a shop near the outer city of the capital, and the rest was used to buy four seasons clothes, brocades, fabrics, and jewelry.Except for food, all the betrothal gifts from the Qian family were given to Yingchun as a dowry, so it was barely enough to make up 62 dowry.Although it is not as good as the previous wife's dowry, as a step-wife, it is barely passable.This time Yingchun was able to buy these dowries, the old lady mainly looked at the status of Yingchun's husband's family, otherwise she would not even think about these dowries.

When Yingchun got married, firstly, it was because there was a war on the border, and the atmosphere in the city was tense; When she married into Qian's family and was still immersed in the happiness of the newlyweds, the army had also assembled and quietly marched towards the southwest.
