Chapter 1195 Jia Heng: My wish has come true, no more extravagant wishes
Jinyang Princess Mansion
At this moment, the eldest princess of Jinyang was talking to Princess Xianning and Song Yan. A smile appeared on the beauty's plump face and she whispered: "The day after tomorrow will be the fifteenth day. I have asked my servants to prepare a lot of fireworks. Then we will
Let’s just watch the fireworks together.”
I had seen many fireworks before, but not once with him and the children.
While everyone was talking, they heard a graceful female official entering the palace and announcing: "Your Highness, the Duke of Wei is here."
While Jia Heng was talking, he entered the backyard hall.
Princess Jinyang raised her eyes to look at the young man, chuckled and said, "We're done."
Jia Heng nodded and said, "Come here to see you, what are you talking about?"
The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled and said: "I just told Chanyue and Xianning how you, Ningguo Mansion, will celebrate the Lantern Festival."
Jia Heng said: "Let's set off some fireworks, eat some Lantern Festival, and have a lively atmosphere."
Since Tian Niuer is in the midst of her father's mourning, she will probably not set off fireworks in the palace, but there is no need to accommodate other places. After all, it is not a national mourning.
But speaking of it, it was quite miserable for Tian Niuer to be alone in the deep palace. Would he like to go there later... to comfort her?
After the Lantern Festival, he will go to Anhui to handle military affairs. Tian Niuer may have to stay in Jinling for a while, or he may go directly to Beijing.
After all, the mother of a country cannot float outside for a long time. After her father's funeral, she has to return to the palace. It will not be easy to see her again in the future.
The eldest princess of Jinyang, Ru Cuiyu, frowned, looked at the young man with her beautiful eyes, and said softly: "What are you thinking about, so lost in thought?"
Jia Heng said: "I didn't think about anything."
A suspicion arose in Princess Jinyang's heart, but she did not continue to investigate further, and ordered: "Lianxue, go and ask the kitchen to prepare lunch."
Jia Heng didn't say much else. He sat down and chatted and laughed with Li Chanyue and Princess Xianning together with the eldest princess of Jinyang.

Liaodong, Korean Peninsula
After many days of drifting at sea, Hauge's fleet finally arrived at the Korean Peninsula. Standing on the deck, Hauge looked up at the land covered with white snow, with a look of confusion in his eyes.
.
"Master, let's go back like this, to Prince Rui's side..." A Manchu leader from Zhenglan Banner said in a low voice.
The reason why Dorgon did not deal harshly with Hauge was because he did not see anyone in person, rather than being lenient to Hauge.
Hauge thought for a while and whispered: "Recuperate in North Korea first, and we will talk about other things later."
He still didn’t know what the Dorgon brothers had planned? Even if Dorgon personally led the troops south, he would end up with the same defeat.
Wait until he recovers from his injuries before making any further calculations!
Everyone said that and headed towards North Korea.
At this moment, Hauge didn't know that because he had killed tens of thousands of North Korean navy, the local North Korean officials did not like Hauge very much, and quickly delivered the news to Dorgon in Shengjing.
Manchu Qing Dynasty, Shengjing City
In the palace garden, above the sky, the winter sun shines brightly on the earth, and the snow on the eaves and tiles of the palace has melted to a thin layer, and the sound of "tick, tick, tick" rang out and fell on the blue bricks.
Dorgon's resolute and dark face suddenly turned gloomy, and he said to Azig beside him: "The assassination plan failed. Is this Chen Yuan feasible?"
Azig pondered for a moment and said softly: "There must be something wrong. The palace guards are unusual and delayed for such a long time, which caused changes."
Dorgon quickly suppressed the irritation in his heart and said: "Now, the Han emperor is on guard. He wants to assassinate again, but he probably can't."
Azig advised: "You can't just rely on assassination."
Dorgon looked ugly and remained silent for a moment without saying much else.
"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from North Korea. Prince Su Hauge has arrived on North Korea Island." Not long after, a Xiao Rui with a white flag quickly entered the palace and raised his hand to Dorgon.
Dorgon's face was as gloomy as iron, and he said coldly: "Send Hauge a message and ask him to come to Shengjing quickly. He is no longer Prince Su."
It is simply wishful thinking to think that hiding in North Korea will be all right!
The Han Dynasty's Duke Wei once said that before fighting against the outside world, one must first make peace at home.
Azig said: "Fourteenth brother, the craftsmen in the Ordnance Supervision of the Ministry of War have been improving the relevant artillery guns, but they still cannot reach the range of the Hongyi cannon."
Dorgon thought for a while and said: "Send someone to the Han Dynasty's weapons inspection, steal the blueprints, and wait for them to be shipped over to make imitations."
Azig raised his hand and said yes.
After Azig left, Dorgon pounded the table, feeling depressed.
I don’t know since when, things started to go wrong in the Qing Dynasty, and now they have lost many elite members of the Zhenglan Banner, making the country even weaker.
At this moment, the eunuch outside said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Fan wants to see you."
At this moment, Fan Xiandou, led by the eunuch, crossed the threshold and entered the south study room.
Fan Xiandou walked a few steps quickly, saluted, and said, "I have met the regent."
Dorgon quickly left the desk, held his hands up, and said enthusiastically: "Mr. Fan, please get up quickly."
Then, he said loudly: "Come, take a seat."
Fan Xiandou looked flattered and said, "The regent has betrayed my old minister."
Dorgon praised: "Mr. Fan was a veteran of the two dynasties of the late emperor. If he had not drawn the longitude and latitude, and assisted in the aircraft maintenance, the Qing Dynasty would not have been as successful as it is today in founding the country, and being solitary and oligarchy."
Fan Xiandou said quickly: "Your Majesty is too praised. It is also the two generations of emperors who have worked hard to govern and have great talents and strategies. They are old and decrepit and just follow the wind and clouds."
Dorgon smiled, and then said seriously: "Mr. Fan, the current situation in the country is difficult, and one of our elite eight banners has lost another banner. On the other hand, the Han Dynasty, after the self-defense Duke's lucky victory in Ping'an Prefecture, the Han Dynasty is prosperous, and in
In the northwest, Tibet has won great victories one after another. Mr. Fan thinks how the Han government should deal with it."
Although the Jurchens are not in critical condition now, most of the top officials of the Qing Dynasty can smell some signs of deterioration.
Fan Xiandou looked solemn, twirling his beard under his chin with his hand, and said: "Your Majesty, I have something I don't know whether to say or not."
Dorgon put on a facelift and calmed down his expression, and said: "Sir, please speak."
Fan Xiandou said: "The Taizu of my dynasty defeated the Han army. At that time, the Han Dynasty was at peace for a long time. It was arrogant and corrupt officials were rampant. The country was in constant disaster."
Dorgon nodded and said: "When I followed my father Khan to join the army, the Han court was indeed in a state of decay."
"When Chongping came to the throne, although this person had the intention to work hard to govern, he was impatient, ambitious and talented, so he was not found until Duke Wei was born." Fan Xiandou said coldly.
Dorgon nodded and said: "So this Duke of Wei is still the biggest concern of my Qing Dynasty."
Fan Xiandou said: "If we don't get rid of this person, the Qing Dynasty will be uneasy and will no longer have the intention to take over the Central Plains."
In fact, most of the history of ancient China is dominated by people.
Dorgon said: "Previously, Chen Yuan, the son of the former King Zhao of the Han Dynasty, wanted to use the strategy of alienation, but recently he failed."
Fan Xiandou said: "Then think of other ways. For example, if the ministers like Duke Wei are strong but the leader is weak, there will be discord sooner or later."
In fact, Fan Xiandou was right, because if the Empress of Song Dynasty was involved by Jia Heng, there would be discord between the monarch and the minister to some extent, and of course other rifts would arise later.
Dorgon was silent for a moment and said: "This is not a day's work."
Fan Xiandou said: "The other thing is to temporarily stop fighting, unite vertically and horizontally, and wait for changes in the Han Dynasty. They are implementing the New Deal, which will definitely cause a turmoil."
Hearing this, Dorgon nodded and said, "That's it."
Just like once the Three Kingdoms situation is formed, it is impossible to determine the outcome in a short time.
After Fan Xiandou left, when Dorgon was filled with anxiety, a familiar female voice faintly came from the eaves outside the palace: "Uncle Fourteen."
Dorgon followed the sound and saw Concubine Zhuang wearing a vermilion dress, her lush hair combed into a small bun, walking quickly with a food box on her arm, and a bright smile on her plump and beautiful face.
Dorgon's mood suddenly turned cheerful again.

…
Years pass by and seasons flow by. Before you know it, it’s the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in the seventeenth year of Chongping.
This day is the Lantern Festival. Every household in Jinling City has colorful lanterns hung under the eaves in front of the door, and fireworks have soared into the sky, blooming colorful petals in the night sky.
There are even some words that say "good luck and good fortune", shining in the night sky, which is extremely real.
The servants and maids of Ningrong and Princess Jinyang also got busy early. From the main gate to the second gate and then to the inner hall, lanterns passed by almost in a flash, and the lights were as bright as day.
Because, Jia Heng spent the New Year’s Eve at Jinyang Princess.
Therefore, the eldest princess of Jinyang asked Jia Heng to go to Ningguo Mansion to accompany Zhu Jinchai to celebrate the Lantern Festival. Jia Heng came there early in the morning with Li Chanyue and Song Yan.
Princess Xianning did not come over, but chose to stay with the eldest princess of Jinyang.
Jinling, Ningguofu
At this moment, in the courtyard, colorful lanterns have been hung on the corridors in all directions, and the colorful lights are swaying in the wind.
The loft in the backyard is built next to the lake. At the moment, the lights on the shore are blurred and swaying in the wind.
Originally, he was going to go to Xuanwu Lake to see the lanterns on a boat ride, but Jia Heng was worried that there would be inconvenience in taking care of his children with so many sisters around him.
Moreover, many dignitaries and dignitaries from Jinling City went to Xuanwu Lake to put up lanterns today. They were worried that something was wrong, so they put up lanterns in the backyard of Ningguo Mansion.
Fortunately, when the Jia family lived in Jinling City, they built a lake in the backyard of their home. The lake was clear and blue, reflecting the stars and the moon.
At this moment, the lanterns hung on the shore are swaying in the wind on the lake. The shadows of the lights are intertwined with the shadows of the water, and the light and shadow are flowing and sparkling.
At this moment, Xiangyun was on the ground near the lake. He picked up the fire sticks and lit up the fireworks. He only heard a few "swish" sounds, and the sky was filled with smoke and bright lights flickered.
Xiangyun smiled sweetly, clapped her little hands, and whispered: "Sister Bao, Sister Lin, look at it."
Zhu Jinchai looked at the lively and lovely girl with a gentle smile on his face.
Baochai's face, as white as a pear, was smiling. There was concern in her eyes, and she just warned: "Sister Yun, be careful, don't get hurt."
Tanchun smiled and said, "Sister Bao, I'm watching her from the side."
At this moment, Jia Heng stood beside Daiyu, looking at the fireworks set off by the servants in the front yard, shooting into the sky one after another, as gorgeous as brocade clouds, as bright as the Milky Way, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of joy in his heart.
It was rare for him to see such a fireworks feast. He spent the entire sixteen years of Chongping fighting in the north and south, and now he had a little leisure time.
Daiyu raised her head, with a hint of tenderness and a look of envy between her brows and eyes, her starry eyes sparkling, and said: "Sister Yun is really a born pistachio."
No wonder, among so many girls in the house, he just likes Sister Yun. His innocence and innocence are indeed something few can match.
Jia Heng smiled and said, "Yes, it would be great if Sister Yun could be so carefree all her life. I don't know how many people should be envious of her."
Daiyu chuckled lightly, then suddenly turned around and asked: "Brother Heng, do you still remember the Lantern Festival in the 15th year of Chongping, when we put out lanterns and made wishes in Huifang Garden?"
"Fifteenth year of Chongping?" Jia Heng couldn't help but have a look of memory on his face, nodded, and asked: "What's wrong?"
Daiyu's eyes sparkled and she said softly: "What was the wish that Brother Heng made at the beginning?"
Jia Heng smiled and said: "What I promised at the beginning was that you could grow up happily and not be disturbed by worldly things."
At that time, he had just arrived in the world of Red Mansions and had just achieved some noble status. Facing Zhou Fang's fresh and vivid young faces, he could not help but feel great pride in his heart.
Now, he has initially realized his original wish.
Under Daiyu's curved willow-leaf slender eyebrows, her bright starry eyes gave Jia Heng an angry look, and whispered: "Then you'll all marry Brother Heng, right?"
Jia Heng: "..."
Crimson Pearl Immortal Grass, compete to tell the truth.
However, he really never made this wish.
At first, I was worried that the lantern would float over again, so I said, "If you change another one, it will be too difficult for me."
Daiyu's starry eyes flashed brightly and she said in a clear voice: "Brother Heng, does he know what wish I made back then?"
Jia Heng said: "What wish?"
A slight blush appeared on both sides of Daiyu's cheeks, and she said softly: "At that time, I hope to find a good husband."
Hearing this, Jia Heng turned to look at the girl and chuckled: "Now Sister Lin has got her wish."
Daiyu couldn't help laughing. Under her curved eyebrows, her starry eyes shone brightly. She turned around and snorted softly, saying: "I got my wish, but my wishful husband is like the bright moon in the sky, and the stars are looking at each other all around."
Jia Heng said softly, looked at Daiyu aside, took the girl's slender hand, and whispered: "At this time, we are looking at each other, and I hope that the moonlight will shine on you. You are the bright moon, round by round.
The bright moon."
He secretly thought that even though they were now a couple, Lin Daotong's charm was still the same, and even tended to get worse.
At this moment, the fragrant breeze filled the air, and the graceful Sister Feng came from the side. With a bright smile on her bright and bright melon-seed face, she asked: "What are you two talking about?"
As soon as he said this, everyone around him covered his mouth and laughed.
Baochai was talking to Baoqin, and her plump, white face, which looked like pear petals, also showed a faint smile, and she looked at the two people standing hugging each other.
Under Daiyu's eyebrows, her starry eyes were smiling, looking at the beauty who was more delicate than flowers, and said: "I didn't say anything. I said that grandma should be talking about Sister-in-law Feng in Beijing. This Rongqing Hall has been deserted for a year.
Already."
"Look, this sharp mouth can only be conquered by Brother Heng." Under Sister Feng's curvy eyebrows, Danfeng said in a low voice with a bright smile in her eyes.
Li Wan was not far away, his gentle and elegant face was covered with a quiet color, his pink lips were slightly pursed, and his beautiful eyes were staring with a smile, but more than half of his mind stayed on the young man's face.
Everyone was laughing and talking.
At this time, Daiyu went to talk to Xichun.
Jia Heng looked at Baochai now, staring at each other, looking at each other, and smiled softly.
Under the Baochai cloud bun, the plump and bright face is white and rosy, as bright as the clouds, like peach blossoms in February.
Under Cuiyu's beautiful eyebrows, there is a slight smile in the moist almond eyes. It seems that it is no longer affected by the previous marriage, but it can be seen that the outline of the face has become much slimmer.
Apparently, I was feeling restless during this period and couldn't sleep well.
Jia Heng walked closer and called softly: "Sister Xue."
In fact, he still felt a little guilty in his heart.
He comes from a later generation, and sometimes he is not obsessed with status, but he can also fully understand Baochai's obsession with status.
After all, this is a world where reputation determines superiority.
A smile lingered on Baochai's pear-like face, and she called, "Brother Heng."
Jia Heng said: "Sister Xue, let's go to the lake and put a lantern."
Baochai lowered her head and responded softly.
Then, as Jia Heng walked all the way to a large rock by the lake, there was already a crowd of people there.
Jia Heng took a lantern from the maid on the side and lit it.
At this time, Baochai also took a lantern and placed it on the lake. When the cold wind came, the lantern floated in the wind, seeming to carry the friendship between the two of them and moved toward the lake in the distance.
At this moment, Xiangyun smiled and said: "Sister Bao, make a wish quickly."
Baochai clasped her hands together and made a wish to the lanterns floating on the lake.
Jia Heng also looked at the girl who was silently praying quietly, and felt a little happy in his heart.
Baochai slowly opened her moist eyes, turned her head to look at the young man, and said softly: "Brother Heng, why didn't you make a wish?"
"My wish has come true, so I don't have any more extravagant wishes." Jia Heng smiled, his eyes warm, and said softly.
Even if he doesn't make a wish now, his wish has come true. If he continues to be greedy and insufficient, he is afraid that the water will overflow.
Xiangyun asked curiously: "Sister Bao, what wish did you just make?"
Baochai looked into Xiangyun's bright eyes and asked, smiling lightly: "I promise that my sister Yun will be able to marry a good man in the future."
This is obviously a joke.
But Xiangyun was so embarrassed, her round face and cheeks were as red as clouds, she stamped her foot and said softly: "What are you talking about, Sister Bao? I won't tell you anymore."
As he said that, he glanced at the young man out of the corner of his eye, and then went to look for the treasure harp while Song Yan went to play.
Jia Heng looked at the figure with a smile and whispered: "Sister Yun has grown up in the past two years and has become shy."
Baochai's moist apricot eyes were as full as water, and he said softly: "Brother Heng, did you know what wishes I made during my fifteen years in Chongping?"
Apparently, the girl had just heard the conversation between Jia Heng and Dai Yu, and took the opportunity to ask Jia Heng this time.
Jia Heng stared at the girl and asked, "What wish did Sister Xue make?"
Baochai stared at Jia Heng blankly, with tears in his beautiful eyes, and said softly: "I originally hoped that Brother Heng would be able to fight in peace and develop his ambitions in this big man."
At first, she had never thought about her status, and she didn't know why. Maybe it was her mother, maybe it was the comments of people around her, or maybe it was his promise, so her status gradually became something attached to her.
At that time, she didn't care about her status. Even if she became his concubine, she would be happy to be with her all the time.
Jia Heng's face was slightly startled. He caught the tears twinkling in the corner of his eyes, gently held the girl's slender hair, and said warmly: "I will always bear in mind the friendship that has been with Sister Xue since we were young."
Baochai looked at the young man steadily, responded softly, and said nothing else.
Jia Heng talked for a while, then turned to look at Zhu Jinchai who was placing lanterns by the lake, turned to Xiren and said: "Go to the maids and grandmothers in each room, be careful not to fall into the water.
, It’s no joke in such a cold weather, if you ask them to let go of one, don’t let it go.”
The attacker quickly responded and then went to inform his grandma and maid.
