Battle of the Red Chamber Ring III

Jiafu Rongxi Hall

The snow in early spring has covered most of the yard.Wu Jijiu said that Jia Huan was going to be a bodyguard in the palace, but it was postponed because an old concubine died a year ago.

Jia Huan put on his cloak early and went out, reported to the Ministry of War, and ordered to follow his winter solstice to lead the carriage. The winter solstice was a young man Jia Huan bought after arriving in the capital. His background was innocent, but it was because of his father When he got sick, he sold himself and left silver taels for his younger brother to live on.

Winter Solstice moved very quickly, and Jia Huan didn't wait long when he saw his carriage came to a stop beside him.

He turned over and got into the carriage, and then ordered Dongzhi to set off. They needed to cross three streets, because Jia Huan hadn't had breakfast yet, so when they arrived at the lively place, Dongzhi got out of the carriage to buy buns.

Jia Huan, who had nothing to do, lifted the curtain of the carriage with one hand, and while looking at the scenery outside, suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes, and saw a person riding past his carriage, just for a moment. After a while, he saw that the other party actually pulled the horse to a stop, turned around and rode back, and stopped beside his carriage.

Jia Huan took a closer look, and suddenly there was no sound, only to see Chi Chen wearing a red official robe, with coiled dragon boots on his feet, standing beside his carriage, bending over.

The two looked at each other, and Chi Chen suddenly smiled: "What a coincidence, now I meet brother on the road, what are you going to do?"

"My little brother is going to the Ministry of War to report, and I happened to meet the prince." Jia Huan also responded with a smile, since the other party was willing to do a play for himself, he would naturally not be unwilling.

"Going to the Ministry of War? Coincidentally, Xiao Wang is going too. If it's freezing cold today, Brother is willing to take Brother for a ride." Chi Chen suddenly looked up at the sky, and then looked down at Jia Huan. Already starting to notice here.

Jia Huan didn't refuse either, and let Chi Chen into his carriage with his hand, just waiting for the winter solstice to come back.

The winter solstice came back soon, he lifted the chain and handed the bun in his hand to Jia Huan while getting on the car: "Master, you can eat it while it's hot, it's just out of the oven..." Seeing Chi Chen, he was immediately stunned, Glancing at Jia Huan, then at Chi Chen's clothes, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "I've met the adults, but I don't know how offended you are when you got into the carriage."

In a panic, he was about to kowtow to Chi Chen, fearing that his inappropriate behavior would cause trouble to Jia Huan.

Chi Chen stopped it with a smile: "Go ahead and drive your car, this king just borrowed my younger brother's car to shelter from the cold wind."

As soon as Dong Zhi heard it, he turned his head as a matter of course, finished in front of the carriage, flicked the reins, and began to drive the carriage seriously.

With the sound of the wheels of the carriage, Jia Huan's body swayed along the carriage, and Chi Chen, who was sitting beside him, put his hands on Jia Huan's body. As soon as the two touched, Jia Huan looked up at Chi Chen.

"What are you doing? It's just to see that you didn't sit still and help you. Could it be that brother is alienating me like this now?" Chi Chen said aggrievedly, and while lowering his voice, he brought his face closer After leaving Jia Huan, the breath of the two exchanged.

Jia Huan found that the tip of his nose was filled with the cold fragrance of the other party, which was faintly filled with the tip of his nose. It seemed that this kind of fragrance made him feel a little stuffy, and he couldn't tell what it was like. Needless to say, the atmosphere between the two will only become more and more strange.

So Jia Huan just took the lead and said: "I heard from Master Jijiu that you have gone to the south of the Yangtze River now."

"Yes, I just came back, and I met my younger brother soon after I came back. This king and my younger brother are indeed destined." Chi Chen nodded with a smile, and did not put his hands on Jia Huan away, but took it for granted It's getting closer.

"There are so many beauties in the south of the Yangtze River. Didn't you say that the weaving mansions over there are very good? Why didn't you let the prince stay for a long time?" Could it be that the other party didn't send a single woman to him, and now he is still playing with a big man like himself.

"No matter how good-looking a girl is, how could she have half the looks of my younger brother? I didn't think so at first, but now that I saw my younger brother, I suddenly felt that in this world, only a younger brother's beauty can be called beautiful. It's hard to see." Chi Chen teased Jia Huan with a smile, and then looked up and down carefully. Jia Huan felt that his back was about to break out in cold sweat, so Chi Chen said again, "If in the future This king can't marry a wife, but brother is responsible, I usually have too much contact with brother, looking at the women next to me, I feel that they are beautiful and withered, and have no taste at all."

So even if you hit the old bachelor in the future, it has nothing to do with Lao Tzu, okay? Jia Huan unconsciously complained in his stomach. Chen's relationship seems to be very good, which is unbearable, the relationship has obviously ended, why Chi Chen is acting like an infatuated person again, Jia Huan is really unbearable.

But even if he doesn't want to bear it, he still needs to maintain this kind of good attitude towards Chi Chen, because if he can't deal with these things, he will never have the possibility of escaping when Chi Chen really hits hard in the future.

Is there any king in the world, unless he can take everyone out to sea, obviously this is still technically difficult for countries that have already banned the sea.You can't let yourself drown in the vast ocean just to escape to a foreign country.

"Didn't it mean that there is no need for a man to have a wife? What's more, His Majesty is in charge of the marriage of the son, so the son has nothing to worry about." Jia Huan was really rude this time, and directly pointed out the emperor's father to remind Chi Chen.

Chi Chen's eyes changed slightly. Sure enough, it's not that Jia Huan has no feelings for him, but that he is too sober. This kind of sobriety makes Chi Chen feel proud, but also difficult. Why can't he be like other people? If you like it, you will be together happily, no matter what the future direction is.

He also knew that if he really couldn't handle this matter well, it would be absolutely impossible for him and Jia Huan in this life.Chi Chen sighed in his heart. Fortunately, he had planned for a long time, but now he can't tell the other party that this kind of silent sacrifice is really not what Chi Chen is willing to do, but what he is doing now is really not possible. Tell Jia Huan, otherwise there will be great disasters.

The carriage outside stopped, probably at the place, Jia Huan left first, and then stood outside waiting for Chi Chen to come down.

When Chi Chen came down, he had already adjusted his mentality, and when he got off the carriage, he saw a group of officials waiting outside the door, and Jia Huan had already stood quietly among them.

Chi Chen laughed and followed the Minister of the Ministry of War into the Ministry of War, and then waited for everyone to kowtow, greeted him, and shouted, and that was the purpose of his coming to the Ministry of War today.

There are many people who can be used by the Holy One, not to mention that now he has solved all the serious problems of his confidantes. If he wants to say that now he is just looking for the people who have tripped him up before Qiuhou to settle the score. To him, Chi Chen didn't have much to do with him. After all, he watched Chi Chen grow up. If Nan Wang still owed Chi Chen, he pinched Nan Wang and watched him suffer. , can also be regarded as weekday leisure.

The Southern King and the Holy One are obviously brothers, half-brothers, but the relationship between the two is indeed endless. The grievances between the two can start from the abolition of the crown prince, and then the bad things after the Holy One ascended the throne. The Holy Majesty who has lost his hands will naturally not make it easy for them.

The Ministry of War was originally the territory of King Zhongyong, but now King Zhongyong asked him to transfer him away, but the minister of the Ministry of War in the Ministry of War has no real power, and many of the ministers of the Ministry of War under him were formerly staffed by King Zhongyong. There is no mobilization department, so this time when Chi Chen came, he was going to make a move.

The Minister of the Ministry of War is an honest man. Although he is in charge of the Ministry of War, there are only a few people who can be mobilized under him. The military divisions of the dynasty are slightly different, divided into Zaiqi and Green Forest.There is an obvious style between the two. Basically, the flags are in the hands of the royal family, which can be regarded as the private army of the Chi family, while the green forest belongs to the world and is controlled by the people below.

Among the eight banners, King Zhongyong used to hold two banners. Before the prince was abolished, the eldest prince held one banner, Nanwang one banner, and the other four banners belonged to the capital and were controlled by successive princes.

The Holy Majesty gave Chi Chen the two banners of King Zhongyong to use through this incident in the northwest, and the owners of the two banners naturally stayed in the capital. After going around for a while, it was not his own kind of thing, and most people can't bear it , Therefore, the Banner Master clearly gave Chi Chen face, but secretly kept stumbling him.

The personnel affairs in the capital are complicated, and there are innumerable connections between those who are said to be the top ones. If one accidentally makes a mistake, it may be impossible to tell who can be pulled out behind the scenes. The current emperor is not easy to serve, but the current empress dowager is not easy to serve either. Those living concubines have their own powers, that is to say, in the capital, if a brick is dropped, it may hit several royal relatives.

If you see someone on the street carrying a birdcage and saying that he is the majesty's majestic grandpa, it may not be a lie. Extraordinary ability.

After Chi Chen entered the Ministry of War, Jia Huan had nothing to do. He sat alone in the study and studied the books of the Ministry of War. Because of the need for combat, the Ministry of War has quite a lot of travel notes, introducing the customs of various places, but for Jia Huan For Huan, these are not worth seeing, because he is born with a little more intelligence knowledge than the people here.

For Jia Huan, who took a geography class in junior high school and must recite the map of China, the study of topography and landforms is like opening a cheat. If there is a popular dispute in the Ministry of War, Jia Huan will often be asked. , and then look for evidence in the book, basically you can't say wrong.

When it was getting dark, Jia Huan packed up his things and prepared to go back home. Another day of shift was over, and he had a few more days to do nothing.

Waiting in front of the gate of the Ministry of War, before waiting for a long time, I saw my own carriage coming, but the problem was that the driver on the carriage was not Dongzhi.

Chun Geng looked at Jia Huan and felt hard for him. He obviously refused every time seriously, but people like himself would still return on time.It seems that no one can persuade Chi Chen to let him stop doing such a thing, but in his current position, no one can say anything, even Master Chi let go.

Looking at Chun Geng, Jia Huan felt his brows wrinkled. He looked at Chun Geng and asked, "Where's my coachman?"

Chun Geng didn't answer, Jia Huan glanced at him, turned his head in doubt, and saw the curtain of the carriage lifted, revealing half of Chi Chen's body inside, only heard the sound of coming in, Chun Geng turned to Jia Huan Spreading his hands, Jia Huan took a deep breath and stepped into the carriage with heavy steps.

As soon as the talent got on, Chi Chen grabbed his waist and pulled him into the carriage. Chun Geng set off quickly without anyone's orders.

Chi Chen didn't say anything, just waited for the carriage to arrive at the gate of Jia's mansion, then put Jia Huan down, together with the carriage, waited for Dongzhi to run out of the door, Chi Chen had already changed to another carriage and left, Jia Huan watched Dong Zhi wanted to pull the carriage back, so he asked, "Why aren't you waiting for me at the door?"

Winter Solstice looked at Jia Huan suspiciously: "Didn't the young master tell me to reply first? If there is something to do, someone will send you back."

Jia Huan can neither stop listening to others in the future, nor can he say how could you leave like this, after all, it was Chi Chen who did it, no matter how detailed his instructions are this time, he will still be able to find someone to do this next time Kind of thing, and then let yourself follow his heart.

Maybe I should really marry a wife and break his mind, but is it really good to kill other women for the rest of my life just for myself?For Jia Huan, this kind of selfish thing to a certain extent, he used to be only good at doing it, but since he knew that people have souls, he began to become superstitious, and he began to fear that once he really died, Is it necessary to face all those sins? There are already countless killings.

Dong Zhi walked in front of Jia Huan, shook his hand, called young master twice in a low voice, then looked at Jia Huan and looked at himself, then grinned: "The master just ordered someone to call you to eat."

Jia Huan heard that it was Jia Zheng who called him, so he nodded, put his fingers into his sleeves, crossed his hands together, and put them on his chest, glanced at the snow marks on the ground outside that were pressed by the carriage, and turned around Said: "Let's go, don't make the master wait too long."

Winter Solstice groaned, then pushed open the door, and the two of them went in, and the inside was still somewhat different from the outside. Most of the snow in the yard had been cleared away, leaving only the white snow on the artificial rocks in the center of the flower bed. The tip of the ice crystals formed, reflecting the colors of the setting sun.
