The beauty's voice was pleasant and her body was soft, which made Jia Lian feel happy both physically and mentally. Unknowingly, he felt sleepy and fell into a light sleep.
In a sudden battle, the sky was spinning, and he finally developed a firearm that was ahead of the rest of the world, and the navy also became very powerful in his hands. So the Tatars on land became vassals, the nations on the sea surrendered, and he himself ascended to the blue clouds.
However, conspiracy and assassination also came from this. In the light and shadow of the sword, the palace walls were stained with blood. Countless familiar faces slowly fell into the blood like phantoms. The boundless heaviness woke him up.
She opened her eyes slightly, and in front of her was a very clear and noble beauty's side face. She frowned and looked a little worried, but she looked a little more pathos than usual, making her look even more touching.
Jia Lian likes to look at beauties, so when he saw this scene, he admired it silently. Unexpectedly, the beauty soon noticed his peeping and took his gaze as dissatisfaction with her. Jia Lian felt her body tighten and said quickly: "Master Hou
I'm sorry, I just saw the sweat on Lord Marquis's forehead and dared to wipe it for him. I didn't mean to disturb Lord Marquis..."
Hearing this, Jia Lian moved his eyes to her left hand, and sure enough, in those plain hands with long jade fingers, she was holding an embroidered handkerchief, which was green in color.
Jia Lian felt that this color was very familiar. After thinking about it, it seemed that many young girls liked to use this color material for personal wear. His Guai Xiangling was one of them. In his memory, he seemed to have never seen it before.
I have worn bellybands of other colors.
Jia Lian's thoughts turned away, and the frown that had been frowning relaxed, and his expression returned to calm and peaceful, which made the beauty in his arms less nervous. She hesitated for a moment, put her bare hand on Jia Lian's heart, and asked softly: "The Marquis just now
Have you dreamed of something bad? I see that the Marquis looks very bad, and I am very worried."
Jia Lian paused for a moment, then nodded calmly.
Hu Yuanyao was a little worried and puzzled: "Can a person like Mr. Hou also have nightmares?"
After saying that, he glanced at Jia Lian, lowered his body a little, and said softly: "I heard someone say that if a person has a nightmare, he should tell another person about it, and then he will never do it again.
It’s a nightmare... If Lord Marquis doesn’t mind, you can talk to this slave.”
Seeing Hu Yuanyao's serious look, Jia Lian laughed and said, "It's not like you, girl. Your body is so heavy that I can't breathe. It's strange that you don't have nightmares."
"ah??"
Hu Yuanyao opened her mouth in shock and hurriedly stood up, about to get off Jia Lian.
Jia Lian hugged her waist in advance, and took the opportunity to touch the beauty's clothes with one hand. He originally just wanted to simply test whether the beauty was wearing a bellyband or a tube top. If possible, let's see what it was.
Colorful.
Just looking at the helpless look on the beauty's face, she didn't seem to notice his thief's hand in stealing fragrance, so she couldn't help but push further.
Hu Yuanyao couldn't leave, so she could only say in embarrassment: "If the Marquis dislikes the slave for being fat, I will only eat one meal a day from now on, and only eat a small amount at each meal..."
Hearing this, Jia Lian couldn't help but laugh. Worried that the beauty was really on a hunger strike to lose weight, he quickly said: "Okay, I'm just joking with you. If you can be considered fat, there will be no fat people in the world, so...
"
Jia Lian's expression flashed with a mischievous smile, "Let's take this as an example. I used to think that you were much 'thinner' than others. Today I tried it and it turns out that you can hold it with only one hand."
Saying that, Jia Lian deliberately grabbed the beauty in her arms, and Hu Yuanyao let out a cry and fell limply into Jia Lian's arms. When she raised her head again and faced Jia Lian, she saw her charming face and affectionate smile.
Eyes. She leaned close to Jia Lian's ear and breathed like a blue: "I have already felt the heat of the Lord. If the Marquis needs it, I am willing to die under the Marquis..."
Hearing this, Jia Lian's spirits were startled again. Seeing the beauty's hands behind her hips, she was about to test him deeply. Jia Lian was just about to make a move when she heard Sister Aqi's voice coming from outside the study.
"See ma'am!"
"Well, your Lord Marquis is in there?"
"yes."
Hearing the commotion outside, without Jia Lian saying anything, Hu Yuanyao turned over and stood up from Jia Lian, straightened his clothes a few times, and also pulled Jia Lian's robe, and then stood aside.
So, when Wang Xifeng brought Ping'er and Xiang Ling into the door, what he saw was a quiet scene of Jia Lian crouching in front of a bookcase while a beautiful woman was studying ink in the corner of the bookcase.
Hu Yuanyao seemed to have just discovered Sister Feng, and quickly stepped forward to give Sister Feng a full salute.
Sister Feng frowned and glanced at her, looking back. Hu Yuanyao stepped back in a wise manner, closed the door and left.
From the beginning to the end, Jia Lian only looked up when Sister Feng entered the door. This made Sister Feng chuckle and let Xiang Ling and the others open the food box. She took a bowl of soup from it and delivered it steadily.
Jia Lian stood next to him and said with a smile: "I was worried that the second master would be hungry, so I specially brought food to the second master. Who knew that I was overly worried. Our second master has a beautiful woman accompanying him. In the second master's words, it's called '
It's beautiful and delicious, the second master must have been full for a long time, why do I need to worry about it."
Jia Lian took the soup bowl from her hand and said, "If you bring me food, I will accept your favor. If you deliberately come to vomit me, go back as soon as possible. I still have things to do."
With that said, Jia Lian started to taste the fragrant ginseng and black-bone chicken soup in his hand. He happened to be a little hungry.
Sister Feng was just suspicious at first. When Jia Lian was receiving the soup, she took advantage of the opportunity to get close to Jia Lian and smell it carefully. Then she looked at Jia Lian with a holding expression and sat sideways on the eucalyptus and smiled at Jia Lian: "Second Master still doesn't want to admit it. This smell is so disgusting."
It’s not gone yet.”
She was sitting on the eucalyptus, her position was higher than Jia Lian's, and with her expression, she looked completely condescending.
Jia Lian didn't pay attention to her in a hurry. He ate two more mouthfuls of soup and two more mouthfuls of meat. Fang put the bowl aside, took the handkerchief from Ping'er and wiped his mouth, then waved to Sister Feng in front of him.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "What are you doing?"
Although Sister Feng could see that Jia Lian had bad intentions, she still leaned forward righteously. She was not making trouble unreasonably, so she was not afraid of Jia Lian hitting her. If Jia Lian had to deal with the mistake first and attack her, she would feel relaxed.
But it was obvious that every time she was determined and assured of victory was untenable in front of Jia Lian. As soon as she moved her buttocks, Jia Lian hugged her body, placed her body across his legs, and slapped her twice.
"you………!"
Sister Feng was furious and cursed: "You have done something wrong yourself, and you still don't want others to say a few words to you? There is no such thing in the world, please let me go."
Obviously, under this situation, Sister Feng had no intention of being submissive. She began to twist on Jia Lian's body, obviously wanting to give Jia Lian some color.
Although Ping'er and Xiangling next to them were worried that Jia Lian would be scratched, they also felt that what Sister Feng said was reasonable. In this case, the second master also beat the second grandma, which was somewhat unjustifiable, so it was difficult to persuade them.
But their worries are unnecessary. If Sister Feng breaks out again, she will be easily defeated in the face of Jia Lian's absolute strength.
I saw Sister Feng's hands being caught by Jia Lian's backhand, and her body raised high. Although her beautiful face was already blushing from struggling and soaked in sweat, she still refused to admit defeat.
Ping'er hurriedly stepped forward to support her and advised Jia Lian: "Second Master, please be gentle. Being careful will really hurt Second Grandma."
Wang Xifeng couldn't struggle, and felt angry and aggrieved. Ping'er stepped forward and became her punching bag.
"Bah, you little hooves, stop pretending to be a good person. You are a nest of snakes and rats, and you are willing to sincerely do it for me? You are probably hoping that I will fall into her hands, and then you will take over this family!"
Even though he knew he was speaking out of anger, it still made people feel distressed, so Ping'er had to retreat quietly.
Jia Lian was really a little annoyed at this time. He grabbed the woman who didn't know the heart of a good person with one hand, freed up his other hand, and slapped her erect and elastic breasts a few more times, and then he slapped her
He cursed in his ear: "You evil bitch who doesn't understand anything, what do you know? You only think that I stay here just to steal love and wealth? Hum, to tell you the truth, with my current ability, as long as
I am willing that I can take all the beauties in this world into my house one by one and enjoy them. By then, you may not be able to do anything to me! So, don’t be jealous in front of me. What do you really want?
, I will tell you clearly, why hide it and let you catch me?"
Sister Feng obviously didn't accept Jia Lian's words well enough. She still raised her head and said, "Then what's the matter with the fragrance on your body? Do you dare to say it's not hers?"
"It's definitely hers."
At this moment, Sister Feng and the two maids next to her were stunned. Seeing that the second mistress was tied behind her back by the second master and kneeling on his lap, they all felt sympathy for the misfortune of the second mistress.
But Jia Lian leaned over Sister Feng's ear and whispered, "Do you know who she is?"
Sister Feng curled her lips and said: "Isn't she just a woman given to you by the eldest princess...Why, I can't compare to the princess, even the maid next to her is nobler than me. It's a crime for me to even ask you, so you just
Hit me?"
As he said this, he looked very aggrieved.
When Jia Lian saw this, he tied her up and released her. She no longer struggled, but lay on Jia Lian's chest and hit Jia Lian twice.
Jia Lian hugged her and smiled: "I have been promoted."
"I know... it's because of this that I finally settled your godmother and her maids, ordered the kitchen to give you nourishing chicken soup, and happily came over to congratulate you. You'd better be here by yourself.
Kiss me with the beauty here, she just teases you a few words, but if you don’t coax her... she will beat her..."
"Two more added."
"Um??"
Sister Feng, who was still chattering and looking like I couldn't coax her today, suddenly raised her tearful eyes and looked at Jia Lian blankly.
It was already very late when Jia Lian summoned the old slave who was building the ship, and Sister Feng was busy working behind the scenes. She didn't know yet, but she just thought that Jia Lian had been promoted to a third-grade official, as if he had mentioned something about the guns and cannons before.
She didn't know the rest.
"Two, which two?"
Jia Lian said: "Your Majesty heard that our ancestors were ordered to build sea boats and repair seawalls. It happened that the imperial court needed to develop a new navy, so he ordered me to go to Tianjin to build a new seaport and supervise the construction of new warships."
"So, you are going to Tianjin Wei!?"
Sister Feng seemed extremely anxious. Jia Lian had finally stayed at home for half a year, so why did he want to leave Beijing again?
"Is there no one in the court anymore? Why does the emperor have to ask you to do everything? None of the ministers who built the ship can go, but you have to go..."
"hehe."
Jia Lian put her arms around Sister Feng's shoulders and said, "Look, Tianjin Wei is not far away. I rode back in half a day. If you miss me, it's only two days' journey by car. What I want to say is another one."
, Regarding the Holy One’s appointment of me as the Commander of the Firearms Battalion..."
When Sister Feng heard that Jia Lian said that he could be back in half a day, she finally felt less anxious. Then she realized that her man was about to take off.
She originally thought that he got a commander-in-chief, so she was overjoyed. After all, from now on, in addition to being the Marquis's wife, she is also a true general's wife! That's why she came to see Jia Lian so late at night. She is not actually the general's wife.
I really like coming here.
Who knew that adding a commander was not enough, but there was another one? Apart from anything else, she, a woman in the class, could see this honor alone.
"What kind of official position are you in Tianjin Guard? Are you an imperial envoy? What about your new position of commander? I heard that this is a new yamen and it hasn't been established yet?"
"It is not difficult to set up. His Majesty asked me to randomly select elites from the various camps of the Forbidden Army. The key is, do you know that this newly established firearms battalion is not only under the jurisdiction of the Forbidden Army, but also stationed in the imperial city..."
"this……"
Sister Feng is suspicious on the surface, but in fact she is not very clear about the relationship. For her, stationed in the imperial city and outside the city are not the same. Isn't it just walking a few more steps to work?
Jia Lian took a serious look at him and knew that she was not pretending. When it came to political acumen, she was not even the slightest bit worse than Princess Zhaoyang.
So I didn't plan to discuss it with her in depth, and just said: "I am now in the third rank of the official rank, which can be regarded as a high-level position in the dynasty. I also hold military power in the center, and my position is the most important thing. Once..."
Jia Lian lowered his voice: "Under such circumstances, once there is a change in the palace, I will inevitably be involved. Do you know the danger?"
Sister Feng's insensitivity to politics does not mean that she is stupid. After hearing what Jia Lian said, she quickly realized what Jia Lian meant. Since ancient times, the royal family has fought for power and profit and carried out coups. It is not new for you to kill me and I will kill you. Once Jia Lian
Being involved, then...
Thinking of the dangers involved, Sister Feng hurriedly said: "In that case, you can report to the emperor and station the yamen outside the imperial city. Anyway, the emperor trusts and likes you so much. Or, just don't give up this official position. Anyway, you have many official positions.
I don’t care about one or two of them..."
If Sister Feng's words were heard by other women, they would not know whether to laugh at her or envy her. I have never heard of people advising husbands to be enterprising, but never heard of people advising husbands to lose their official positions.
Jia Lian also smiled and said: "If you become an emperor and work for me as an official, you can't do business. You can do it if you want to do it, and if you don't want to do it, don't do it? You don't have to worry too much. The government is stable now and it's not easy for anything big to happen. I just want to do it."
It's just a precautionary measure.
Hu Yuanyao's father is the guard of the west gate of the imperial city. Although he is only a deputy now, I can make him a general at any time as long as I am willing. Do you know the significance of this? "
"you mean……"
Sister Feng's eyes lit up, "You want to form a clique for personal gain?"
Ping'er saw that what his master and master were talking about became more and more secret, so he waved to Xiang Ling and retreated to the door.
"Forging a clique for personal gain? You are really good at making up crimes for the men in your family.
This is just to leave a way out for myself and find convenience. From now on, I will lead the two positions of the Western Military and Horse Division and the Firearms Battalion. I will definitely enter and exit the imperial city at any time. I don’t care about anything else. I only proceed from safety. This imperial city
The guard of Ximen is naturally the best. This is a simple truth. You don’t need me to remind you anymore, right?"
Sister Feng nodded quickly, turned her eyes, and then said: "In other words, you want to use Hu Yuanyao's father, so you decided to take her in? And the reason why the princess gave her to you was not just... you,
Have you expected today?"
Sister Feng felt that she seemed to have enlightened herself.
Seeing her like this, Jia Lian finally patted her head happily like an old father, and Sister Feng also lay in Jia Lian's arms, her eyes rolling around, sometimes shrewd, sometimes jealous, and finally turned into gentle calmness.
In fact, she has long understood that the royal eldest princess must be more helpful to Jia Lian than she, or even the entire Wang family, is to Jia Lian.
It's just that she feels a little unwilling in her heart. That's all. As long as the princess can truly help her man, she will not only stop targeting her, but will have to win over and please her to prevent her from changing her heart towards her man...
