I don't know if it's because of the many good days recently, there are quite a few weddings held by wealthy families in the capital, and Jia Jue and Zhaoyang received a bunch of invitations.

It's just that there are only a few who can work for their husband and wife to take a trip.Except for the weddings of some clans, Jia Jue and Zhaoyang rarely attended the wedding banquets at the palaces of the ministers.

Those who meet in the officialdom are just sending some congratulatory gifts.

It's just that such a festive day didn't last long, and soon a letter of eight hundred miles was sent to the Imperial Palace in the capital.

Jia Jue arrived at the household department on time as usual, and soon found that the atmosphere in Buri was a little different from usual.

"You're here." As soon as Huo Ziwen saw Jia Jue, he ran to Jia Jue's side in a panic, with a look on his face that I had something to tell you.

Jia Jue raised his eyebrows and put the person into his office.

"Brother Jue, something happened in the Southwest! The King of Nan'an was defeated, not to mention that he was captured by the enemy. If it weren't for the generals guarding the gate of Yuecheng, I'm afraid we would not have lost a city or two here. .”

"I heard that Master Qiao was called to the palace in the middle of the night yesterday, and I don't know what's going on."

"The king of Nan'an was defeated?" Jia Jue frowned. Everyone knew what was going on between the king of Nan'an and the small countries over there.

The Nan'an Palace was afraid that the imperial court would "run out of birds and hide the good bows", so they were extremely merciful to those small countries.After so many years, the relationship between Nan'an County Palace and these small countries may be closer than that of the imperial court.

"It is said that the Queen of Qianxiang Kingdom worked hard to govern and developed in secret, so this time the King of Nan'an County was caught off guard." Huo Ziwen raised his eyebrows at Jia Jue, making a familiar expression.

Jia Jue also understood that this was the King of Nan'an's playing tricks.He himself thought that he and the other party knew it well, but the other party was actually secretly accumulating strength to kill him.

Jia Jue was also speechless.

"I'm afraid the emperor will not let the king of Nan'an go easily." Huo Ziwen said.

Jia Jue agreed that Nan'an County Palace was originally feared by the court because of the issue of military power, plus the disgusting trick they played.The court officials also had a very bad impression of Nan'an County Palace.

Just like his immediate boss, Lord Joe.

This time the king of Nan'an County has played off, and the court will definitely not let it go.

Emperor Yonghua is a tough monarch, even if he has a Supreme Emperor above him, even the Supreme Emperor can't stop Yonghua Emperor from wanting to send troops.

War or peace, I am afraid that the court will not be quiet again.

The news that the king of Nan'an County was defeated and taken prisoner spread in the capital that day.It is said that Qian Xiangguo, who captured the king of Nan'an County, made a request to marry the princess.

The emperor was furious and firmly disagreed.Of course, there is no princess of the right age in the palace to make a kiss.Moreover, there is still a big gap in strength between Qianxiang Country and the nomadic peoples in the north.

After hearing the news, Concubine Nan'an almost couldn't breathe. When she heard that the way to save her son was to marry, she immediately went to the palace.It can be considered that she has some brains and knows that it is useless to ask Emperor Yonghua.The person she begged was the Supreme Emperor.

I don't know what Concubine Nan'an said to the Supreme Emperor, but the Supreme Emperor called Emperor Yonghua to his bedroom the next day.

Then Emperor Yonghua agreed to the Nan'an County Palace's request to rescue the Nan'an County King, but the royal family would never marry any girl surnamed Zhao to Qianxiang Country.Those who want to save the king and relatives of Nan'an County must provide it by themselves.

There is a girl of the right age in the palace of Nan'an County, and she is also the biological daughter of the princess of Nan'an County.

The news spread to the palace of Nan'an County, and the Princess of Nan'an County hugged her daughter and began to cry.

"Auntie, Yun'er is your own granddaughter, you can't push her into the fire pit, let's think of a way, and find other ways to save the prince." The princess of Nan'an County took her daughter, the head of Xining County, to kneel in Nan'an In front of the concubine, mother and daughter cried one after another.

"Grandmother, granddaughter won't go to get married, won't go, grandma..." The headstrong Xining county magistrate in the past was also frightened by this shocking news.Grabbing the sleeves of Concubine Nan'an, she begged.

Concubine Nan'an covered her head and listened to the cries of her niece and granddaughter.

This niece is her own chosen daughter-in-law, and she doesn't get much favor from her son when she marries in.But she is filial to her, and her granddaughter is also raised by her side, and she doesn't want her granddaughter to get married.

But compared to the sons they rely on, the nieces and granddaughters took another step back.

"The one who was captured was her father. Do you think she will have a good life if she doesn't go and rescue her father?" The Daqing Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety. If the granddaughter doesn't go, other spitting stars can drown her .

"Auntie, you must have a way, or, or we go to recognize a daughter and let her marry Yun'er, so that we can have the best of both worlds." After finishing speaking, the princess of Nan'an County's eyes lit up, thinking that this is a good idea , So she pulled the hem of Concubine Nan'an's clothes and began to cry.

"Forget it, I'll think about it, think about it again." Concubine Nan'an also felt that this was a good idea.But she couldn't just agree so easily, she always wanted to let her niece and granddaughter know about her difficulties, and begged her to be more grateful to her.

Sure enough, the princess of Nan'an County begged even more when she saw that Princess Nan'an was loose.

"... Let's make a good choice for this marriage partner, at least we can't let the other side see the inappropriateness." Finally, Princess Nan'an let go after Nan'an County's concubine begged hard.

Now the whole capital is watching the jokes about Nan'an County Prince's Mansion, He Jing probably thinks that someone is worse than her, and the whole person is no longer as crazy as before.

It's just that people are asked to inquire about the Nan'an County Palace every day.

That gloomy look made the maids who served her dare not disobey her in any way.

"Sister Yuan'er, these are the brocade and cloud satin that the empress sent to the princess." The palace maid next to Concubine Zhen looked at Yuan'er with some sympathy when she saw that the redness on her face had not subsided.

Although Concubine Zhen is not a good master to serve, at least she knows how to behave better than Princess He Jing.In addition, the imperial concubine does not need to marry barbarians far away to get married, and those who serve them naturally do not need to leave their hometowns.

And the servants around Princess Hejing, especially the big palace maids, probably cannot escape the fate of dowry.

Seeing the sympathy in the other party's eyes, Yuan'er felt uncomfortable and at the same time became more determined to get rid of the fate of Princess Hejing's dowry marriage.

"Princess is not in a good mood these days. I remember that the gadgets outside the palace brought by the sixth prince are very popular with the princess. Can my sister ask the empress to buy some for the princess?"

"What's the matter, I'll report back to the empress when I get back, it's not a big deal." The palace lady agreed.She knew that the empress was feeling guilty towards Princess He Jing at this moment.Not to mention a little bit of gadgets, even Princess Hejing and the Moon Empress in the sky will be satisfied.

When the maid went back to report, the sixth prince happened to be paying her respects to Concubine Zhen.Hearing what the maid said, he directly took over the task in a big way in order to show that he valued the relationship between brother and sister.

"Old lady, Concubine Nan'an is here." Yuanyang hurried into the room, interrupting the excitement in Jiamu's room.

"What is she here for?" The smile on Mother Jia's face faded. The last time Nan'an Concubine almost disturbed her birthday banquet, Jia's family and Nan'an County Palace no longer even maintained the harmony on the surface.What is the concubine of Nan'an, who is not in season, coming to their Jia's house, and it is extremely rude to come to the house like this without even a letter of worship.

Yuanyang didn't know why Concubine Nan'an came to the door.

"Feng girl, go and invite someone over here." If the other party doesn't pay attention to etiquette, the Jia family will pay more attention to etiquette.

"Yes, old lady."

Mother Jia asked a few girls to avoid it first. The posture of Concubine Nan'an didn't seem to be a good thing, so don't scare them when the time comes.

Concubine Nan'an entered the Rongxi Hall, smiling very enthusiastically, as if she had a good relationship with the Jia family.

"...The old lady is really getting younger and younger as she lives, and her children and grandchildren are filial, which is really enviable... This is your new granddaughter-in-law. Oh, she is really dignified and virtuous..."

Mother Jia: ………

She was taken aback by Princess Nan'an's sudden enthusiasm, but Mother Jia immediately became more vigilant.If you don't have anything to do, you can either rape or steal.

Mother Jia also had an impeccable sociable smile on her face, and Princess Nan'an began to chat with each other.

Concubine Nan'an had something on her mind, and when she saw Jia's mother, she didn't ask her why she came here today.In the end she could only speak first.

"Old Madam, why don't you see the girls in the house? I just envy the old Madam who has so many outstanding granddaughters and granddaughters who can be happy under her knees. Unlike me, who only has one granddaughter, Xining, she has a weak temper and is not lovable." Mrs. Nan'an The concubine said with a smile.

Mother Jia paused in her heart, she knew this concubine very well, and it stands to reason that she had lost such a big face in Jia's house before.With her personality, she would basically never go to Jia's house again.

But today he came over and asked about the girls at home.I feel uneasy at first glance.

Don't think she doesn't know that Concubine Nan'an doesn't think much of the girls in their family.There is also the arrogant and willful head of Xining County in the Prince's Mansion of Nan'an County, whose eyes are higher than the top, just like the Princess Nan'an.Weakness is absolutely out of the question, but it is true that it is not pleasing.

"The few in my family are not as filial as the county magistrate of Xining, but the county king and concubine are lucky." Mother Jia praised very sincerely.

Now who doesn't know that the king of Nan'an County is waiting for his daughter to save him, isn't this a great filial piety.

Concubine Nan'an's expression froze, and she secretly scolded Jia Shi for which pot she would not open and which pot to carry.

"...Xining's child is indeed filial, but she is weak. Not to mention other things, I'm afraid she won't be able to survive the journey. So the mother and concubine of this child and I are thinking about choosing a body in the family's relative's house. A strong girl is recognized as a daughter, so she can quell the war with her relatives."

"Although this is a marriage, the girl must be able to get the title of princess, which is also a good thing for the Glory family." Concubine Nan'an is like a modern insurance salesman, selling this adopted daughter to Jiamu.

Not only Jia's mother, everyone present understood the purpose of Concubine Nan'an's visit to their house today.

Mother Jia sneered in her heart, Concubine Nan'an thought they were all fools.Regardless of her reluctance to part with a granddaughter, if they really send a girl from the family to marry for the sake of being a princess, the hat of selling a girl for glory will be firmly put on Rongguo Mansion's head.

At that time, no matter whether the girls in the family are married or not, their value will plummet, and even the concubines in the palace will be affected.

Their Jia family is the princess's in-law's family, and there is no shortage of power and wealth in the family. She has a lack of understanding to agree to such a business that guarantees no profit.

Besides, who gave Concubine Nan'an such a big face, thinking that the daughter they recognized would be able to get the position of princess.Her own granddaughter is still only a county head.

Jia Jue told her that the emperor hated the king of Nan'an County for not doing enough but failing.It was too late for the Jia family to hide in Nan'an County's palace, so how could they send their daughter to her house.

"The empress dowager is really compassionate. I heard that the eldest girl of the Zheng family is very lively and clever, so she is an excellent candidate. When the empress dowager prepares for the banquet, I will definitely go to the house to congratulate you." Nan'an The concubine's maiden name is Zheng, and she belongs to the residence of the Marquis of Yiyong.

Concubine Nan'an almost couldn't maintain the smile on her face, her natal family had few famous daughters, and the eldest daughter in this life was the first among the first daughters.If she dared to go back to her mother's house and mention this matter, she might be kicked out.

"To tell you the truth, the old lady, Yanran, that girl has already committed herself," Dowager Nan'an was afraid that Mother Jia would talk about other people again, so she simply expressed her thoughts.

"The last time I came to Rongguo Mansion to see the third girl in the mansion, her demeanor is definitely much better than my family's Xining. Madam, we are also old acquaintances. I don't know if you can give up love."

The news that Concubine Nan'an was kicked out by the Rongguo Mansion spread quickly in the capital.Everyone in the capital knew that Concubine Nan'an was going to harm the girl who was killed in order to prevent her granddaughter from getting married.

"Tsk tsk, Nan'an County Prince's Mansion has a good plan. If you don't want to have a daughter, you will recognize a daughter and come back to suffer for yourself."

"This county magistrate of Xining is too unfilial. His father is in danger but he is unwilling to save him."

"That's right, this Rongguo Mansion is famous for loving its daughters, how could it possibly agree to let its own girl marry on their behalf. I don't know what Concubine Nan'an thinks."

"...This is the title of a princess anyway, maybe someone cares."

"Come on, the king of Nan'an County has lost the battle and the emperor hasn't settled with them yet. How could he be named the princess."

"........."

Only when Jia Jue heard these rumors did she realize that Concubine Nan'an had set her mind on Tanchun.The Jia family is completely different from the original book. What is the mind of Concubine Nan'an, and she dares to hit the Rongguo Mansion with her mind.

Jia Jue was also unambiguous, and directly participated in the book of Nan'an County Prince's Mansion in the early court.

They were the ones who lost the battle, and they were the ones who wanted to get along with each other and save others, but in the end it was them who were reluctant to part with their daughter.They want to use other people's daughters to fill in the hole, but they don't know who will give them face.Since you don't want to save Nan'an County King, then don't save him.

Emperor Yonghua agreed with Jia Jue's opinion very much, and directly said that if Nan'an Palace didn't really want to save people, then forget it.

When the news reached Nan'an County Prince's Mansion, Princess Nan'an didn't dare to make trouble anymore, she was annoyed that Jia's family had deceived others too much, but her son's life was the most important thing.So no matter how much the princess of the county cries, she decides to use the princess of Xining and her relatives to save her son.

Emperor Yonghua received a note from the Prince's Mansion of Nan'an County, and only ordered one to know.

As for the title of Princess Nan'an, Emperor Yonghua didn't mention it at all.The emperor's attitude is so obvious, no one dares to say anything for Nan'an County Palace.

So the county lord of Xining took the wedding car to the southwest as the county lord.

Here, County Lord Xining has just left the capital, and a major event happened in the palace. The sixth prince of the Supreme Emperor raped several maids around Princess Hejing in the bedroom of Princess Hejing.

This is simply a scandal that can discredit the entire royal family.

Empress Xu almost fainted when she got the news. If the sixth prince's behavior is really serious, it will be a dirty palace.

Empress Xu didn't even go to verify whether this matter was true, but immediately blocked the news. Unlike the previous ones, Empress Xu directly used the seal of Empress Zhonggong this time.

As soon as the Phoenix Seal of the Central Palace came out, Emperor Yonghua and the Supreme Emperor got the news immediately.When they understand the whole story clearly, they are naturally furious.

The Supreme Emperor is old, and it was a little bad that night when he was so angry.Although there was no danger of life after the diagnosis and treatment by the imperial physician, he had a stroke and completely collapsed on the bed and couldn't get up.

Emperor Yonghua directly imprisoned the six princes in the clan mansion, and Empress Xu directly replaced all the maids and eunuchs in Hejing's Palace.

The two emperors and queens agreed to deal with this matter with a sharp knife.

"Your Majesty, let's settle down He Jing's marriage quickly." Empress Xu felt chills when she saw the results of the investigation. He Jing actually wanted to destroy her first brother because Princess Zhen Gui only cared about her two sons and not her daughter. .

Living in the palace with such a lunatic really does not reassure her, so let's send this plague god away as soon as possible.

Emperor Yonghua rubbed his forehead: "I'll ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare her dowry right away. Anyway, it's a long way, so just walk slowly."

According to the wedding date set by the two parties, He Jing was supposed to leave in three months.But neither Emperor Yonghua nor Empress Xu wanted to keep her in the capital and the palace for one more day.

The Supreme Emperor has fallen, and Emperor Yonghua's order is naturally no one dares to perfunctory.

The House of Internal Affairs prepared Princess Hejing's dowry with rare speed, and Emperor Yonghua directly selected several guards from the Supreme Emperor's Luan Yiwei to escort Princess Hejing to marry far away.

Unlike the county lord Xining, Princess Hejing married far away for the sake of the peace of the imperial court and the border. Emperor Yonghua sent the prince and court officials to the suburbs of Beijing to send Princess Hejing off.

Zhaoyang and Jia Jue watched Princess Hejing's send-off team go away in a restaurant.

"I have never been able to get along with her. Now that she is married far away, it will be difficult to see her again in this life. I hope she can cherish it safely." Zhaoyang sighed.

Jia Jue was noncommittal.

Jia Jue originally thought that Concubine Zhen would live in peace for a while because of the sixth prince and Princess Hejing.Unexpectedly, he received news from Wei Ruolan just after returning home that day, and the Zhen family and a group of party members were ready to attack.

Jia Jue didn't dare to delay, and sent the news directly to the palace.Although he didn't think those people could make any big disturbances, just in case.

"Master?"

"Qing'er, let's go back to Rongguo Mansion." The palace is not safe now, the Princess Mansion has guards, why not take Zhaoyang back to Rongguo Mansion, let the guards of the Princess Mansion and the guards of Jia's family protect everyone, so as not to disperse the security force.

Zhao Qing agreed very straightforwardly, and the two packed up some of their important things, and directly boarded the carriage to go to Jia's house.Because they often go back to Jia's house, no one finds it strange.

As soon as he entered the door, Jia Jue asked Guan Yan to deliver a letter to Liu Xianglian.It's not that he's afraid of something really happening, but that generals don't have much chance to make meritorious service in the capital, and this time is a rare opportunity.

Jia Jue went to see Jia Mu, and then called Jia Lian.

"Your Majesty knows the actions of these rebellious ministers and thieves. It should not be as dangerous as last time. But just in case, the guards in the mansion are led by the guards of the princess mansion."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements."

"All the female relatives come to the old woman's house, so Jue'er needn't worry." Mother Jia said calmly.

Jia Jue nodded, but he wasn't nervous, after all, it wasn't the first time.

"By the way, Second Brother, you should pay more attention to the East Mansion."

The Ningguo Mansion didn't know if they would join the rebellion this time, and they had to guard against it.

"I know." Jia Lian nodded, it was about the safety of the family, even if he had some friendship with Rong and Qiang from the next door, he would not dare to bet.

Soon night fell.

Jia Lian and Jia Jue had dinner together in Qinghui Courtyard. The hobbies of the two brothers basically had no overlap, so Jia Jue read by himself, while Jia Lian was in a daze.

One night, neither of the brothers had a rest, and from time to time there were servants and guards from the Qinghui Court to report something.Except for some noises from the east in the first half of the night, the whole night was quiet, no different from usual.

When it was dawn at Maoshi, Jia Jue got up to wash up and get ready to go to work.

"Third brother, you still have to go to the household department today? Why don't you take a day off first?" Jia Lian rubbed his eyes, his face full of exhaustion.

Jia Jue put on the official mansion: "No need, I just went out to check the specific situation, and the second brother will take care of some of the family."

"do not worry."

Boom!Boom!Boom!

Suddenly a distant bell rang, and Jia Jue and Jia Lian looked towards the palace together.

"Twelve bells, it's..." Jia Lian looked at Jia Jue in panic, the twelve bells were the death knell of the emperor's death.

Jia Jue also frowned, but he didn't think it would be Emperor Yonghua.

"Second brother, go prepare something. I'll go find Zhaoyang."

"Okay." Jia Lian ran out quickly, asking his servants to prepare white silk mourning clothes while running.

Just as Jia Jue stepped into Rongxi Hall, she saw Zhaoyang running out. Obviously she was worried about Emperor Yonghua's comfort.

Without saying anything, Jia Jue hurriedly asked Zhaoyang to dress up properly and hurried to the palace.

As the emperor's daughter and son-in-law, they entered the palace smoothly, and soon knew that the Supreme Emperor had passed away.Jia Jue didn't know what happened in the palace last night, but he saw bloodstains that hadn't been cleaned up in some places.Many thoughts flashed through his mind.
