Chapter 1450 Zhen Lan: Brother Heng should give her a concubine
Bit right?
Shenjing City, Ningguo Mansion
In early winter, the light snow had fallen one after another the day before yesterday, and the rugged rocks and the attic with double eaves and corners seemed to be sprinkled with a layer of snow powder, which looked beautiful from a distance.
It can be seen that it is wrapped in silver and is extremely enchanting.
Grand View Garden, Cicui Temple
A red plum tree with bright resinous pink color in the courtyard has begun to sprout green buds, and the brazier in the nunnery is blazing with warmth.
Miaoyu was dressed in a wide skirt, with her belly swollen into a ball. She was sitting on a soft couch covered with a thick mattress. The beauty's face was pink and plump, with a little baby fat. There was no makeup on her face.
But you can still see the red glow rising like fire.
Not far away, Xing Xiuyan was dressed in a blue dress with pure makeup, like a green lotus emerging from the mud but unstained. She was sitting on the soft couch and teasing Jia Mo.
At this time, the little maid Susu entered the wing from the outside and said softly: "Miss, the front yard said that the uncle is back and has been made a county king."
When Miaoyu heard this, her pink and plump face seemed to be filled with joy. Then she looked at Xing Xiuyan aside and said happily: "He's back."
Xing Xiuyan said: "Brother Heng was granted the title of county king this time."
Under Miaoyu's shaving eyebrows, her eyes were as bright as water, and she said softly: "The title of a county king is a title above a prince. It cannot be awarded lightly unless it has contributed to the founding of the country and the establishment of the tripod."
Although Miaoyu has always regarded fame and fortune as nothing, and always has a fleeting feeling about fame and wealth, these princes and princes have inherited the title and have been with the country.
In other words, as long as you don't rebel, you will be an iron rice bowl for your descendants for eternity.
"Daddy is coming back?" The girl in Xing Xiuyan's arms raised her pretty face and her voice was soft and charming, as if she wanted to make her cute.
Xing Xiuyan smiled and asked, "Momo, do you miss daddy?"
The girl said softly: "I want to."
Just as several people were talking, a familiar voice sounded in the courtyard, "Is Master Miaoyu in the inner room?"
While talking, Qin Keqing's maid Baozhu put on a cotton skirt embroidered with lotus patterns, and her charming and charming face was covered with traces of a prosperous smile.
"Master Miaoyu, grandma has hosted a banquet in the hall of the back house. She invites you and Miss Xing to come over. She said that the uncle is back and we want to have a meal together." The maid Baozhu said with a smile on her pretty face.
Xing Xiuyan frowned and said softly, "Sister Miaoyu is not very well at the moment."
Miaoyu said: "Xiuyan, please carry Momo over there. She was talking about her father just now."
Xing Xiuyan responded softly and said, "That's fine."
After saying that, he came closer, picked up the soft and milky little girl, smiled softly, and said: "Momo, let's go over there to meet daddy, okay?"
"Yes." The little girl responded softly, her little face full of joy.
Grand View Garden, Hengwu Garden——
While the gold hairpins in the front yard were discussing non-stop, on the embroidered pier in the wing of Hengwuyuan, Baoqin and Xiangyun were reading with two books, looking contented.
Baochai was also playing chess with Daiyu across an apricot-yellow chessboard. Her slender face, round and round, gradually gained a touch of pampered nobility.
Under Daiyu's two smoky eyebrows that looked like rolling willow leaves, those eyes that contained stars and moons seemed to be twinkling with stars and rainbows. She said softly: "Sister Bao, it's your turn."
Baochai said softly, "Hmm", and with her bare hands as white as snow lotus root, she picked up a chess piece and placed it on the apricot chess floor. Then she picked up the tea cup from the small table on the side and sipped it gently.
Take a sip.
At this moment, Ying'er quickly entered the house and said softly: "Girl, the uncle is back. I heard from the nun in the front yard that the uncle has been made a county king by the palace."
As soon as these words came out, there were two "clicks", and immediately, two chess pieces fell one after another on an apricot-yellow chess surface.
Baochai and Daiyu looked at each other, catching the joy on each other's faces.
Under Baochai Cuiyu's beautiful eyebrows, her moist apricot eyes flashed brightly and she said, "Brother Heng is back."
Daiyu opened her mouth and said in a soft voice: "Brother Heng has been named the county king."
Baoqin and Xiangyun also raised their heads at this moment. The two chubby girls couldn't help but look happy on their faces as white as snow.
Baoqin said happily: "Brother Heng is back."
Not only did she come back, she was also named a county prince, so she... no longer had to be a concubine.
I should be able to make her a royal wife.
Xiangyun also raised her charming and bright face at this moment, and her eyes were filled with joy.
Even Xiangyun knew the significance of Jia Heng's title of county king. After all, he was able to tell Baoyu about the most important economic and official career in the original work.
While everyone was talking, a nanny came into the hall, a smile bloomed on her wrinkled face, and she said softly: "Girl, Ruizhu is here."
While talking, Ruizhu entered the hall and said: "Miss Xue, Miss Lin, grandma is hosting a banquet for the two girls in the hall in the backyard."
Then, Ruizhu turned to look at Baoqin and Xiangyun with a smile, and said with a smile: "Everyone happens to be here, so I don't have to go everywhere to invite them."
Baochai put down the chess piece in his hand, stood up, looked at Daiyu who was not far away, his moist and slightly almond-shaped eyes were filled with a happy smile, and said: "Okay, let's go there together."
Daiyu nodded and said, "I think I'm a little hungry right now."
In a blink of an eye, I haven't seen Brother Heng for half a year.
Several people were talking and walking towards the hall.
…
…
Grand View Garden, Qichiyuan
In the courtyard, the biting cold wind gently blew the branches in the courtyard, shaking off a thin layer of snow and making a rustling sound in the air.
In the pavilion with carved beams and painted pillars, Zhen Lan and Zhen Xi sat on a soft couch covered with mattresses, chatting with each other.
Zhen Lan and Zhen Xi, one in a red dress and the other in a blue dress, sat on the soft couch, holding needles and threads to sew their dresses. At this moment, the two girls were like two plants swaying in the clear waves of a pond.
The two lotuses in the painting, one charming and the other beautiful, complement each other.
Tanchun and Yaruo were sitting on an embroidered pier, playing a game of chess.
Yaruo picked up a horse and hit it on the chess piece in front of Tanchun, with a happy and bright look on his face.
Recently, Yaruo has become obsessed with playing chess. She pesters Tanchun and plays two games every day.
At this moment, a nanny in silk and satin walked quickly into the hall and said in a brisk tone: "Miss Lan, grandma asked you and Miss Xi to go to the front yard to talk together, saying that Heng
The uncle is back and has been conferred the title of Lord of the County by the court."
As soon as these words came out, it was like a spring breeze blowing in the hall.
The bright eyes under Tan Chun's handsome eyebrows were filled with traces of joy.
Zhen Lan smiled and said: "I said it's time to come back at this time."
Some time ago, something big like this happened in the capital. The emperor in the palace would definitely send Brother Heng back. As expected, he should be here.
Tan Chun's tone was cheerful and bright, and he said: "Brother Heng is now the king of the county."
She has witnessed almost every step of her brother Heng's journey from a commoner to the king of a county.
And this feeling of witnessing all the way is undoubtedly emotional.
Zhen Lan nodded her head, Fangxin was overjoyed, and said softly: "Since the founding of the country, there have been only four county princes, and Brother Heng is the fifth."
A county prince has four concubines, and I wonder if she and her sister can occupy one.
While the two were talking, a nun came to the hall again and said, "Miss Lan, grandma is calling you to come to the hall for dinner."
Several people looked at each other, stood up, and headed towards the front hall.
On the other side, Jia Heng, served by Qingwen, quickly entered the wing, raised his eyes to look at the girl with slim waist and slender shoulders, and said, "Qingwen, how are you doing at home recently?"
Under Qingwen's curved green eyebrows, her pair of crystal clear eyes that were somewhat like the soft charm of Daiyu seemed to be filled with joy, and she said: "What else can I do? It's not just like that. Young Master,
Every time I go out, my title is improved a bit."
While talking, the girl took off Jia Heng's robe.
Jia Heng sighed with emotion and said softly: "In a blink of an eye, it has been almost half a year since I left Beijing."
Qingwen's face was as beautiful as frost, as pink as clouds. She pursed her bright red lips and said softly, "Young master is now the county prince."
Jia Heng said: "Yes."
When he turned around, he gently pinched the maid's bulging front and said with a smile: "I'll give you a royal title after a while."
After not seeing each other for a while, Qingwen is no longer the bean sprouts she used to be. After all, it has been five years since the 14th year of Chongping.
Qingwen responded softly, a look of joy appeared in her beautiful eyes under her willow eyebrows, and she joked: "I have always been the master's maid, and I don't want to be granted any royal title."
Jia Heng smiled softly and didn't take these words too seriously.
In this way, Jia Heng finished bathing under Qingwen's service.
When I raised my eyes, I found that it was already dusk, but I saw the sun setting in the west, reflecting the white snow-covered octagonal attic. The white and red light and shadow alternated together, which was stunningly beautiful.
Jia Heng stood under the eaves of the corridor, wearing a white Sichuan brocade robe. Under his sword-shaped eyebrows, his cold eyes flickered, looking at the red sunset in the distance, but his heart was covered with a thick layer of haze.
After standing there for a moment, Jia Heng returned to the back house and the hall——
Naturally, I had to spend the first night back at Keqing's place.
Qin Keqing was sitting in the hall, talking non-stop with Mrs. You, Second Sister You, and Third Sister You. Jia Fu was wearing a pink dress and pigtails, and was playing with a nine-link ring.
The little girl inherited the beauty of her father and mother. Although she was only a toddler, she already showed the appearance of a beautiful woman.
As time passed slowly, all the girls in the backyard came to the hall one after another and sat down one after another. They were like birds and birds in a spring garden, full of beauty, blooming and fragrant.
Under Qin Keqing's willow-leaf eyebrows, her gentle and beautiful eyes shone like dew. She looked at Baochai and Daiyu and said, "Sister Xue, sister Lin, you are here."
Baochai and Daiyu looked at Qin Keqing and responded softly.
At this moment, grandma reported: "Grandma, Miss Xiuyan is here."
While talking, Xing Xiuyan quickly entered the hall holding a girl with a pink face.
At this moment, Jia Fu seemed to be keenly aware of the approach of her sister. She turned her pink-skinned face to look at Jia Mo, her eyes lit up, and she called sweetly: "Sister."
"Sister." Jia Mo stared at Jia Fu with a pair of bright and shining eyes, her voice was soft and sweet.
Two girls with pink and jade carvings came closer at this moment, picked up the nine-ring chain, and started playing around.
Qin Keqing smiled, looked at Youshi, and whispered: "The two sisters have a good time playing together."
Youshi's beautiful eyebrows covered with a gentle smile, and she said: "After all, we are sisters."
Qin Keqing: "..."
For some reason, she always thought this was strange.
At this moment, Xing Xiuyan sat down, and her face, which was as white as snow, seemed to be covered with a deep red blush.
At this moment, a maid from outside quickly entered the hall and said, "Grandma, the prince is here."
After everyone heard this, they all turned their attention to the young man behind the brocade mica screen. They saw the young man wearing a Shu brocade robe, tall and straight, flying diagonally under the sword eyebrows on his temples, his eyes sharp and as clear as a god.
Xiangyun's heart trembled at this moment, and she couldn't help but grab Baoqin's soft hand beside her.
"Husband is here." Qin Keqing stood up gracefully. Under her beautiful and gorgeous bun, she could see the smile on her graceful and beautiful face.
He came closer and took the young man's arm.
Jia Heng looked at the crowd of orioles and said, "Are they all here?"
Qin Keqing's face was bright and beautiful, and she said softly: "Miaoyu is at Caocui'an, and she hasn't come here yet."
"Daddy."
At this moment, the two little girls called out to the boy, their voices soft and brisk.
Jia Heng bent down and crouched over, with two little girls on each side.
Suddenly, he heard a "baji" sound from left to right, and felt a warm feeling on one side of his face.
"Daddy~~"
The two caring little cotton-padded jackets called sweetly, their voices soft and sweet.
Qin Keqing looked at the interaction between the father and daughter with a smile, and said softly: "Okay, husband, let's take them two to eat together."
Jia Heng smiled, then hugged the two little girls and sat down to eat.
At this moment, Baochai and Daiyu both stared at the young man, Jia Fu and Jia Mo. Their eyes fell on the pair of little lolita, and they couldn't help but feel envious in their hearts.
Zhen Lan and Zhen Xi also raised their heads, with a pair of bright and slender eyes, and brows that were as spiritual as streams, like moist microwaves.
Jia Heng nodded, picked up a pair of bamboo chopsticks, and said: "In a few days, the clan government will send officials over to record the golden book of the princess, concubines, imperial wives, and jade spies."
Baochai and Daiyu paused with the chopsticks in their hands, looking at each other with different thoughts.
At this moment, Zhen Lan's cold and beautiful face seemed to be filled with hope.
Brother Heng should give her the position of concubine, right?
Third Sister You raised her eyes and looked at the young man. The spoon in her hand clicked lightly in the jade bowl, making a crisp sound, revealing her uneasy mood.
Zhen Xi, who was sitting on the embroidered pier at the bottom, her beautiful brows and eyes as spiritual as a stream, also cast a layer of watery aura, but she was looking at Zhen Lan aside.
Sister Lan has been waiting for a long time, it should be for Sister Lan.
On the other side, Baoqin and Xiangyun, two chubby girls, had plump and white faces with a rosy glow.
Yaruo raised her face, which was slightly plateau red, and her smart eyes were full of curiosity.
How does a princess compare to her princess status?
Qin Keqing's gentle and beautiful eyes showed a trace of curiosity under Ruyue's eyebrows. She smiled and said, "Who are the husband, the concubine and the imperial concubine?"
The beauty really didn't hold back at all at this moment. The princess of the county did her job and asked about the position of concubine.
As soon as Qin Keqing said this, everyone in the palace raised their hearts to their throats.
Jia Heng took in the expressions of all the golden hairpins present and said: "Earlier in Rongqing Hall, the old lady also asked me that the princess, concubines, several princesses and princesses were from the clan and had their own names. I don't want this.
, the position of concubine, that is, Sister Lin, Sister Xue, and Sister Yan'er, as well as Mrs. Gaoming, are all among them."
Sometimes I also like to see the changes in the expressions of the people in the back house.
Well, it's actually a bad taste.
In other words, this is also the reason why some emperors like to watch the concubines in the harem competing for favor?
It’s hard for everyone to say anything else, they just have different thoughts.
There are four concubines, now there are only three, there seems to be one more?
Could it be the one from the Cuicui Temple?
It's just that Zhen Lan is already a bit dissatisfied with food and is absent-minded.
Brother Heng didn't seem to mention her and her sister just now? Couldn't she and her sister be together?
After finishing the meal, all the golden hairpins dispersed.
Jia Heng also looked at Qin Keqing on the side, then took the beauty's slender hand and looked at the bright lights of Ningguo Mansion in the distance. He felt a little dazed in his heart and said, "Keqing."
Under Qin Keqing's slender eyebrows, her beautiful eyes were full of charming friendship, and she said softly: "Husband, second sister and third sister, please go over and serve your husband."
Jia Heng said: "Let's wait for another day. Today I mainly want to accompany you."
Although multi-threaded operation is not impossible, it also consumes more energy.
Qin Keqing raised her eyebrows, rolled her eyes at the young man, and sneered, "My husband has changed his temper."
Jia Heng didn't say much else, but went to the wing with Qin Keqing.
In the side room, on a high lacquered wooden table, a candle flickered, and wax oil trickled down, forming a layer below the candlestick.
Jia Heng gently hugged Qin Keqing's plump and delicate body, rubbed her ears and temples with the beauty, and called out: "Keqing."
Two beautiful blushes appeared on Qin Keqing's jade cheeks, and she said softly: "Dad is already old after the Chinese New Year. I think it's time for him to become an official and take care of himself."
Jia Hengnuan held his hands, fiddled with things, and said, "In a few days, I'll ask my father-in-law what he means."
Under Qin Keqing's beautiful eyebrows, her beautiful eyes were slightly moist, seemingly filled with endless charm. Feeling the intimacy of the young man, her delicate body was already as hot as fire.
As the curtain fell, the couple said goodbye to each other for the rest of the night.
…
…
next day
As Jia Heng was granted the title of County Prince, the news gradually spread throughout the entire Shenjing City. Even at the founding of the Chen and Han Dynasties, few County Princes could reach this age.
Throughout history, it is difficult to find one.
After that, there was news that the Jurchen and False Emperor and the Queen Mother had arrived in the capital, and there was even more discussion in the divine capital.
Some people say that the Jurchen Empress Dowager was so beautiful, otherwise she would not have been so favored by the Jurchen Regent Dorgon after she became a widow.
Early in the morning, the sky was bright, and the golden sunset and morning light shone on the eaves, covering them with a layer of golden gauze.
Jia Heng called Qingwen, prepared a black and red brocade embroidered python suit, and prepared to go to the Jinyi Mansion official office.
At this moment, Qin Keqing was sitting in front of the dressing table. Under the service of Baozhu and Ruizhu, she was dressing up in front of a diamond-shaped bronze mirror. Her charming face, like a hibiscus flower, was watered by the rain and dew, and became bright and beautiful.
Jia Heng now had a silk belt tied around his waist, with a calm face and sharp eyebrows.
At this moment, Jia Heng left the wing and headed towards the study room in the front yard. Sure enough, Chen Xiao was sitting behind a lacquered wood desk, holding a book and reading.
Listening to the footsteps outside, he lifted his pretty head from a book and asked, "Are you up so early?"
Jia Heng's face was as calm as water. He stared at Chen Xiao and said, "Follow me to Jinyi Mansion later, and then enter the palace to meet the Saint."
Chen Xiao stared at the boy in the python suit and said, "That's fine."
Accompanied by the guards of Jinyi Mansion, they headed towards the official office of Jinyi Mansion.
