Chapter 1125 Jia Heng: Jiezi, with the character of Songzhu
…
Jinling, Jinyang Princess Mansion
Jia Heng took the baby from the beauty's hand and felt a sense of closeness and joy in her heart. She lowered her eyes and looked at the baby, looking at the small face and nose, as well as the big eyes inherited from her mother.
After a while, whether it was because Jia Heng was looking at him for too long or because he felt uncomfortable being held, the baby started crying again.
The eldest princess of Jinyang frowned and quickly asked with concern: "Why is Bao'er crying?"
Jia gently stroked the baby's soft face and said with a smile, "Don't be hungry."
This naughty kid doesn't know how to give his father any face.
The nanny smiled and said, "Princess, the Duke of the country just fed her."
Although they knew that the situation in front of them was a bit chaotic, Grandma's family was under the supervision of Princess Xianning and did not dare to leak any information.
Jia Heng smiled and said: "Maybe it's because I started crying as soon as I hugged the child, and the same happened to the child at home."
The one in the family is this one's sister.
A smile appeared on Princess Xianning's beautiful face, and she said: "Sir is a military general, and killings are at their peak in the northwest. It is inevitable that the evil spirit of the weapons on his body will be stronger. Children are sensitive, and maybe they also feel that there is some evil."
I thought to myself, I heard that Mrs. Qin gave birth to a daughter and cried in her husband’s arms?
Maybe when she has children in the future, she may be closer to her husband and stop crying.
The nanny smiled and said: "Your Highness the Princess is right. People from the older generation say that children's souls are weak and cannot bear collisions."
Jia Heng said: "Maybe that's the reason."
Well, it seems reasonable to say that, after all, he is a time traveler.
"Come and hold me. You don't usually hold babies." The beauty said softly, then took the swaddling clothes and raised her eyes to look at the plump and bright face of the young man who seemed a little disappointed.
The child looked funny and said, "It will be fine when he grows up."
Jia Heng smiled and said, "That's okay."
It may be that he really has an evil spirit in him, and the baby's spiritual consciousness is sharp, or that his soul is weak and he senses that the energy field is too fierce.
The eldest princess of Jinyang hugged the infant baby and coaxed her, singing a lullaby in her mouth. Suddenly, she raised her head, with a look of concern on her plump, pink hibiscus jade face, and asked softly: "Where is that in the capital?"
Everything is taken care of, nothing will happen."
This time he won a great victory, reversed the defeat in one fell swoop, and his prestige was undoubtedly significantly higher. I don't know how many civil servants in the capital secretly slandered and slandered him, and what the emperor's brother would think in his heart because of the misuse of Nan'an.
Perhaps, suspicion and wariness have arisen since then, which is unknown.
Jia Heng took the tea cup from Princess Xianning, took a sip, and said warmly: "Everything goes well over there in Shenjing."
The eldest princess of Jinyang nodded, and with her narrow and clear phoenix eyes, her eyes were soft and sparkling, and said: "This year, you have been fighting in the south and north, and you have been very tired. This time you go south to have a rest, so that Xianning and
Chanyue will accompany you, walk around and relax."
Jia Heng said: "There is nothing to change. I came here this time mainly to accompany you two."
Princess Xianning came closer slowly, with a half-smile on her pretty face, and joked: "Sir, how did I hear that Yaruo, the daughter of the Mongol prince of Chahar, was recently named the Lady of the State of Yu? She is going to marry your husband?"
"
At this moment, the eldest princess of Jinyang also cast a pair of shining beautiful eyes at the young man, then looked at Chen Xiao with a smile, and said softly: "Xiaoxiao, come here and talk."
Chen Xiaoxing came closer and sat down next to the eldest princess of Jinyang. He lowered his eyes and looked at the swaddled baby, only to see that the baby was grinning at him.
Chen Xiao felt a little happy in his heart, stretched out his hand to hold the baby's little hand, and said: "Ezhe led tens of thousands of Chahar Mongolian elite cavalry to accompany the Han army to Qinghai. Yaruo had a secret affection for him, and he also had the ability to appease the Chahar Mongolians.
That’s what I wanted, so I decided to get married to Ya Ruo.”
Princess Xianning said softly: "Sir, you really have confidantes all over the world. If I had known about this trip to the northwest, I would have accompanied you so that I could keep an eye on him."
As he spoke, he looked at Chen Xiao and said, "Didn't Sister Xiaoxiao go all the way to the gentleman and didn't stop him?"
Chen Xiaoqing said: "I agree with this matter."
Xianning: "???"
Facing the gaze of the eldest princess of Jinyang, Chen Xiao said: "The subsequent recovery and governance of Tibet cannot be separated from the assistance of Chahar Mongolia. Moreover, many local people in Tibet are sycophants. If the imperial court sent officials to Tibet without the help of Mongolia,
With the help of others, it will not be easy to control the Han Dynasty later. If it is to turn the barbarians into summer and marry the Chahar Mongols, it will not matter."
Princess Xianning chuckled lightly and said sarcastically: "Sister Xiaoxiao is really loyal to the country and can think of such things as marriage."
Li Chanyue pulled Princess Xianning's arm and whispered: "Cousin."
Chen Xiao snorted coldly and retorted: "As long as you follow me, I can stop him."
Princess Xianning: "..."
The eldest princess of Jinyang ignored the quarrel between the two sisters, and with a look of consideration in her beautiful eyes, she asked Jia Heng: "In the Western Region and Tibet, will there be a war in the future?"
Jia Heng said: "The war will take place in one or two years. At the moment, there are issues at sea and the Jiangnan New Deal that are holding us back. Will the Ministry of Internal Affairs' maritime trade with Nanyang be successful this year?"
Princess Jinyang said: "There have been wars at sea in the past few months, and the volume of cargo shipped out has decreased a lot. Chanyue and Xianning both know this."
Li Chanyue took over the conversation, and the gentle girl's voice was soft and soft, and said: "For more than a month, the war situation has been anxious, and there has been basically no sailing. Not only the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but also other merchants."
Jia Heng thought for a while and said softly: "This will indeed affect maritime trade. We will start to resolve this matter this winter."
Nowadays, with the opening of sea trade, customs tax and silver have become a tax source on par with salt tax, and it is impossible for the imperial court to give up such a tax.
Princess Jinyang chuckled lightly, looked at the young man with lively eyes, and said: "I know that this time I went south, I am not just taking care of the children."
Jia Heng took the beauty's hand and said, "I'm just here to look after the child. The rest are for business and private purposes."
The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled and said without going into detail, "During this period, you didn't stay in the capital for much longer."
Jia Heng said: "Brother the emperor was urging me to do some errands, but he didn't bother to wait any longer."
Not only did Keqing and her daughter have no time to accompany them, but they also did not spend too long with Third Sister You, who had just taken a concubine. Yuanyang only met her once and then hurried south.
Maybe it also means to avoid the limelight.
This saves all the civil and military officials in the capital from paying attention to his movements.
As time goes by, his victory in the northwest will gradually calm down, and the courtiers will gradually downplay the significance and impact of the victory.
The eldest princess of Jinyang said: "At the end of the year, I have to go back to the palace. I have been away for a year. The Queen Mother and my father have to go and say hello. I have been away from Shenjing for too long."
"Where's the baby?" Jia Heng looked at the swaddled baby, who was holding out a pair of small hands and sucking milk.
The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled and said: "I am also worried. I can only say that I picked it up on the road."
"Wow..." At this moment, the swaddled baby in the nanny's arms started crying loudly, as if he understood what his mother said.
Jia Heng said softly: "The child was sad when he heard what you said."
The eldest princess of Jinyang was delighted and said with a chuckle: "This little guy."
As he spoke, he called to the nanny, took over the swaddled baby, sang a lullaby and coaxed him slowly, and whispered: "Mother is joking, you are the meat that fell from my mother's body, why did you pick it up on the road?"
Of."
Jia Heng turned to Princess Xianning and said, "You can take care of her then."
Princess Xianning hesitated and said, "Sir, I don't know how to take care of children either."
Chen Xiao said faintly: "When I have children in the future, I have to learn how to take care of them."
Princess Xianning chuckled lightly, looked at Chen Xiao, and said without any sign of weakness: "Sister Xiaoxiao must also learn from this."
I won’t let you lie on top of me next time.
The eldest princess of Jinyang said softly: "Just put it in the house before entering the palace, but keeping it secret like this is not the way to go."
Jia Heng said: "Let's wait for a while."
The emperor would probably be furious if such a thing was confessed. He couldn't deal with such a big matter now. Perhaps after Tibet and the Western Regions were fully recovered, the emperor might acquiesce to the fact that he had a brother-in-law and a nephew.
The eldest princess of Jinyang looked at the young man with a thoughtful look on his face and said softly: "Okay, don't worry about this matter. You also want to choose a name for this child."
Jia Heng said: "I have also thought about it. For the next generation, I will use a cursive character and call it Jia Jie."
The word "Jie" has the character of pine and bamboo, and is indomitable.
I didn't want to name Keqing's daughter Jia Jie before, because it always reminded people of Cao Jie, who was Cao Cao's daughter.
The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled brightly, her eyes lit up, and she said: "The word "jie" fits perfectly."
However, the beauty's eyes flickered, and she said hesitantly: "Zi Yu, why don't this child take my surname, Chen Jie. I call it my adopted son to the outside world, and say that he was adopted in Jiangnan."
Anyway, his surname is not Jia, so he will take her surname first, and then we will discuss the matter of recognizing his ancestor and returning to the clan later.
But just as the beauty finished speaking, the swaddled baby started crying again. It seemed that adoption had triggered the baby's emotions.
"Be a good boy." Princess Jinyang lowered her head with a smile and said in a doting tone.
Jia Heng thought for a while and said softly: "That's fine too."
As a descendant, he actually had no attachment to whose surname he should take. Of course, he still had to have a son with his own surname to inherit the title.
For example, Zhen Qing and Zhen Xue's children have one surname Chen and one surname Shui. In fact, it doesn't matter to him.
Chen Xiao listened to the conversation between the two, his eyes flashed, his mind turned around, and he called him Chen Jie, which was justifiable.
He must have thought that way at the beginning. When she has a son, she will be able to inherit her father's legacy.
"You have been sleeping rough and sleeping all the way. It took a lot of effort to get here. You are probably hungry too. I asked the cook to make some food. Go and eat first." The eldest princess of Jinyang said and called Lianxue.
Jia Heng said: "I'm covered in sweat from the journey. It's not too late to take a shower first."
Princess Xianning said softly: "Sir, I will take you there."
With that said, he and Jia Heng went to the wing to take a bath and change clothes.
The eldest princess of Jinyang looked at the girl who was stunned and said: "Chanyue, you also accompany your cousin there."
Li Chanyue's jade cheeks turned as red as a blush, she said "hmm" softly, and then left the wing.
After a few people left, only Princess Jinyang, Lianxue, and Chen Xiao were left in the wing.
The eldest princess of Jinyang looked at Chen Xiao with complex eyes and asked softly: "Did you go back to the palace to see the Queen Mother this time?"
Chen Xiao nodded and said, "I've seen her before. The Queen Mother's style is still the same as before."
The eldest princess of Jinyang looked at Chen Xiao with her soft and beautiful eyes. After a moment, she whispered: "It's not easy for you to go from the south to the north."
At first, I originally tried to trick her into feeling at ease, but I didn't expect that she somehow connected with it and insisted on getting herself involved regardless of the worldly view.
Fortunately he is not Jia Feichen.
Chen Xiaoqing's eyes were full of worry and he said: "Aunt, you can't hide this matter from the Queen Mother forever. Moreover, my aunt has stayed in Jinling for recent years and lived in seclusion. I am afraid that she has fallen into the eyes and ears of interested people. Over time, she will definitely become a bad person."
Known.”
The eldest princess of Jinyang said: "It can be hidden for a while. The main thing is that this matter should not be made public."
When Chen Xiao heard this, he couldn't persuade him anymore.
The eldest princess of Jinyang lamented: "Now the sea trade in the south is not going well. When the New Deal and sea trade are fine, Liaodong in the north will be the only one left. Once Liaodong is leveled, the world will truly be at peace."
Until then, she might be able to stay with him forever.
Chen Xiao said: "At that time, I'm afraid it will cause a new disturbance."
"Let's talk about it then." Princess Jinyang frowned and whispered.
While the two were talking, in the wing of the back house, Jia Heng, Princess Xianning, and the little princess also arrived in the wing.
The female officials and maids serving around him had already prepared hot water in the tub.
Princess Xianning said softly: "Sir, I will help you take a bath."
After saying that, he called out: "Chanyue, come here quickly."
"I'm bringing a change of clothes for Mr. Jia." Li Chanyue's soft and charming voice came.
Jia Heng smiled and said: "Xianning, Chanyue is shy."
"How shy are you? She has never hugged Mr. the tightest in bed." Princess Xianning said coquettishly, her cheeks turned red, and she chuckled: "Chanyue and I have nothing to do here every day.
But Sister Xiaoxiao will follow your husband to the northwest to command thousands of troops and dominate the situation."
There is nothing to say, they are like glue, they are obsessed with each other all the way, making others envious.
Jia Heng couldn't help but laugh and said: "This journey, going deep into the desert and fighting with the bandits, is not as exciting as you think."
"Sir, I read about the capture of Hami City in the newspaper. Sir, don't take such a big risk next time. If you attack Hami City, what if the Mongolian Tatars are on guard and wait for work?" Xianning
The princess suddenly said with a worried look on her face.
Jia Heng looked at the girl with concern in her eyes, smiled and said: "Military opportunities are fleeting, and we are seeking victory in danger. If we had not taken Hami City first and occupied the convenient location, the subsequent war would have been difficult."
It will be more difficult and it will not end so quickly."
Princess Xianning asked softly: "Sir, when you go south this time, you will still lead the supervisor to inquire about the new policy."
Jia Heng entered the bathtub, and as the hot water boiled up, he said softly: "This time, while we are going south, we will destroy the pirate lairs and expel the Dutch. After that, the sea area will be peaceful and the obstacles will be cleared for trade."
Moreover, he also needs to leave a way out for himself.
Princess Xianning helped Jia Heng wash his back and said quietly: "Then there will probably be another war. In the past few years, my husband has been either fighting or on the way to the war. He has never had a good rest."
Jia Heng turned around and said with a smile: "If you are too busy, you will easily have problems."
Princess Xianning sighed softly and said, "That's what the gentleman said."
Ever since she met her husband, she has been fighting all over the country, seemingly without stopping for a moment.
At this moment, Li Chanyue came over quietly, took a pile of clothes and put them on the stool beside her, and said softly: "Cousin, let me do it."
Jia Heng turned to look at Li Chanyue, catching the worry in Wen Jing's brows and eyes, and chuckled: "Chanyue, I haven't seen you for a long time, why are you so frowning?"
Li Chanyue shook her head, lowered her eyes slightly, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Xiao Jia, I'm fine."
Mr. Xiao Jia must know her life experience, but she doesn't know how to ask.
Meeting Jia Heng's gaze, Princess Xianning's voice was as clear and clear as ice melting, and she said: "When my aunt gave birth, the midwife said it was my first child, and Chan Yue couldn't sleep these days."
When Jia Heng heard this, he was startled and whispered: "So that's it."
Princess Xianning said: "When I gave birth to the child, I almost had dystocia. The little one had a lot of trouble."
Jia Heng frowned and said, "Difficult childbirth?"
He was somewhat unaware of this matter.
Princess Xianning said softly: "Even if there is some trouble, it is not considered a difficult delivery."
Li Chanyue pursed her pink lips, her bright eyes flashed, and she listened quietly.
Jia Heng took a shower, wiped his body, took the undergarment from Li Chanyue and put it on, turned to look at the girl, took her delicate hand, and said warmly: "Chanyue, no matter what, we are all a family, there is no need to commit suicide
Looking for trouble, isn’t this a good thing?”
Li Chanyue softly said "hmm", feeling vaguely aware of it, but deep down in her heart she wanted to ask her biological parents.
However, at this time, I saw the young man coming closer, familiar and gentle.
Li Chanyue snorted and quickly closed her bright eyes, with a slight blush on her petite and cute face.
Princess Xianning looked at the two people hugging each other, chuckled and joked: "A little farewell is better than a wedding."
Li Chanyue's beautiful cheeks were as red as drunkenness. At this moment, she was like a pile of mud slumped in Jia Heng's arms. Under her curved eyebrows, her eyes were as misty as Yun Xingyue's, and she said angrily: "My cousin is making fun of me again."
Princess Xianning looked at the young man at this moment, with a hint of infatuation in her bright eyes, and murmured: "Mr."
Jia Heng took Princess Xianning's hand, hugged her into his arms, came closer and said, "Okay, Xianning is here too."
You came at just the right time, well, this is probably the meaning of being a part-time person.
…
…
Jinling, Ningguofu
As November enters, the weather becomes colder, and all the gold hairpins also put on their coats, wearing hairpin skirts and coats, competing for their beauty.
In the hall in the backyard of Ningguo Mansion, a group of gold hairpins were sitting together, wearing skirts and coats, green hair flowing out, and smiling faces, enjoying themselves happily.
Tan Chun took a newspaper and flipped through it, and the joy on Yingli's face could not be concealed. He said in an excited tone: "Brother Heng has been granted the title of first-class Duke and has gone south on errands."
Xiangyun said softly: "We are all idle here. It would be nice if Brother Heng could come earlier and it would be more lively."
The girl said sadly, a look of sadness appeared on her red apple face.
After hearing this, other people also gathered around Tanchun and looked at the newspaper.
Everyone has been discussing the promotion to the rank of First-Class Duke in the past few days, and there have been speculations for a long time, which is not surprising.
"What happened to Mrs. Yu Guo? Why did she marry Brother Heng?" Zhen Lan said softly with a surprised look on her face.
Tanchun looked around and said in surprise: "She seems to be the daughter of the Mongolian Prince of Chahar? Is she going to be promised to Brother Heng as the wife of the country?"
At this moment, Yuanchun picked up a food box and said, "I cooked some porridge. Let's come and have a taste."
In the past few days, Yuanchun has often come over to accompany his sisters.
"Why don't you see Sister Xue?" At this time, Sister Feng entered the wing and asked in surprise.
Daiyu's starry eyes flashed under her smoky eyebrows, and she said softly: "Sister Bao sent someone over early this morning to say that she wasn't feeling well, so she didn't come over."
The recent newspapers in the palace only contained news about the title of first-class Duke, but there was a letter about a marriage grant. A Mongolian woman was given as the wife of the State of Yu, and the marriage was to be completed on a selected date.
Sister Feng's willow-shaped eyebrows were raised, and her red and phoenix eyes showed thoughts, and she said: "I'm afraid she is suffering from a heart disease. Have you ever seen the doctor?"
Li Wan, who came in together, whispered: "Feng girl."
Yuanchun took over the conversation and said: "The doctor also invited me. He said he caught a cold and prescribed medicine. Now I have taken the medicine."
Sister Xue originally thought that Brother Heng was going to ask for a royal decree for her this time, but now that although she has a royal wife, or even a royal wife, there is someone else, so she must be feeling disappointed.
Sister Feng said softly: "Then let's go over and have a look."
I thought to myself, it seems that the enemy is going south this time.
