Chapter 1457 Zhen Lan: Why is Brother Heng’s side concubine Xi’er?
Chapter 1457 Zhen Lan: Brother Heng, how come... the position of concubine is Xi'er?
The next day, when the rooster crows and dawn breaks, a line of fish-belly white appears in the eastern sky. The biting cold wind in the winter morning is blowing on a red plum tree in the courtyard. The red or white plum blossoms are blooming, and the snow powder on the next tree is swaying.
But I saw the sun shining in the courtyard, and on the eaves of the corridor, I could see snowflakes melting quietly, dripping, dripping, quietly flowing along the tiles of the eaves, falling on the strips of bluestone on the stone steps under the eaves, melting a snow pit
.
Jia Heng and Miaoyu finished their breakfast without saying much, and left Caicui'an and headed to Qichiyuan.
Before arriving at the Zongren Mansion, he needed to go to Qichiyuan to talk to Zhen Lan and Zhen Xi.
At this moment, in the square room, two sisters were playing chess around a table. Zhen Xi picked up a chess piece. Her delicate and bright face was full of youthful beauty. At this moment,
Look focused.
"Why is my sister so frowning?" Zhen Xi raised her brows as bright as a stream and asked softly.
Zhen Lan's bright eyes, which were slightly cold and beautiful, were soft and sparkling, and she said with a smile: "It's nothing, sister Xi'er, it's your turn to go."
As he said that, he picked up a chess piece and dropped it on the chess surface, making a "snap" sound with a bit of crispness.
Zhen Xi said angrily: "Sister took my chess pieces."
Zhen Lan: "..."
Okay, she's really confused.
"Sister, what's wrong?" Zhen Xi's beautiful face showed a look of surprise, she licked her pink lips and asked.
Tanchun, who was teaching Yaruo how to practice calligraphy, turned his head and came over. He chuckled and said, "What else could it be? He was distracted because of the princess' concubine and the imperial decree."
Zhen Lan didn't look dissatisfied on her face. Her voice was pretty and soft, and she said: "Of course I have to think about it. The third sister is determined to be strong like a man. She is so old and has not left the house.
.”
When Tanchun heard this, his beauty suddenly changed, his heart filled with embarrassment and anger, and he choked: "I don't want to marry, can you control me?"
Zhen Lan raised her eyebrows, smiled lightly, and said, "Of course I don't have to worry about it, it's not like I'm not married."
The little girl still wants to fight her, how can she possibly beat her?
As a sister-in-law, do you really think she doesn't know what she is thinking?
It's a pity that people of the same clan don't marry, unless they follow him for the rest of their lives without fame or status, and they have to endure the gossip from the outside world.
This is not a monk in the Cuicui Temple.
While the two of them, Zhen Lan and Tan Chun, were bickering, a maid in bright clothes and a graceful figure walked over the eaves of the corridor and said, "Girl, the uncle is here."
As he spoke, a boy in a python suit could be seen stepping in.
Zhen Lan stood up and called out with a hint of joy in her bright eyes: "Brother Heng, you are here."
Jia Heng nodded, looked at the people playing chess, and asked, "How about you guys playing chess?"
While talking, he walked closer and sat down on an embroidered pier.
At this moment, Zhen Xi got off the lacquered wood couch, came to the table, picked up the teapot, and poured a cup of tea for Jia Heng.
Jia Heng smiled and said softly: "Xi'er is more sensible."
Hearing this, Zhen Lan's beautiful face changed slightly, and her heart was obviously startled. She stepped forward, walked around behind Jia Heng, and pinched Jia Heng's shoulders.
Under Yaruo's charming brows, her black grape-like eyes rolled up and she said softly: "Brother Heng."
Under his sharp eyebrows, Jia Heng looked at Yaruo with a warm smile and asked, "Sister Yaruo is here too."
"Third sister just taught me how to play chess." Yaruo said with a smile on her face.
Has Brother Heng forgotten that she and Brother Heng just got married not long ago? When you come back this time, why don't you come over to see her first?
However, the girl was no longer as clinging to Jia Heng as she was at the beginning, and she immediately jumped up and hung on Jia Heng.
Apparently in the Grand View Garden, through the boudoir education of many girls, I learned how to be reserved.
Under Tan Chun's beautiful eyebrows, her bright eyes were full of inexplicable meaning, and she asked: "Why does Brother Heng have time to come here?"
Because, the two of them had a kiss before and fell in love.
Jia Heng nodded and said, "Come and see Sister Lan'er and Sister Xi'er. Nothing has happened recently."
Tanchun Muyun was concerned and asked: "Brother Heng, we are finished with the war outside."
Jia Heng looked at Tan Chun with eyes like condensation, and said softly: "That's almost it. There's not much else. In fact, it's just some military and political affairs."
Tan Chun said softly: "Brother Heng, aren't the northwest and Tibetan areas still not very peaceful?"
Jia Heng nodded and said: "Those things are not handled by me, the government will select other personnel."
Zhen Lan took over the conversation and asked in a low voice under her beautiful eyebrows: "Brother Heng, why did you come to see me?"
Jia Heng said: "This is not a matter of the Zongren Mansion registering the imperial wife in the backyard in a few days. I will come over and discuss it with you."
Zhen Lan softly said "hmm", her eyes were dim, and she felt a little disappointed deep in her heart.
But I was thinking in my mind, it turned out to be just Mrs. Gaoming?
She thought...
Jia Heng nodded and said: "There is still one vacant position among the four concubines. I am also thinking about who is more suitable."
Perhaps, we can not rush to release the concubine's position and wait and see the situation.
Is it just that it may intensify the "female competition" environment in the back house? Then, all kinds of beauty schemes, The Legend of Zhen Huan?
Zhen Lan bit her pink lips with her white teeth, and under Liu Ye's curved eyebrows, her bright eyes were as bright as water, and she said softly: "Brother Heng, my sister is usually gentle and considerate, why not let her be the concubine.
"
Jia Heng: "..."
This has already begun to play tricks on you, right?
While Jia Heng was speaking, he looked at Zhen Lan with bright eyes under his sword-shaped eyebrows. He was silent for a moment and said, "That's fine."
Zhen Lan: "???"
No, do you really just ignore her?
Zhen Xi: "..."
Is Brother Heng telling the truth, or is he deliberately angry with his sister?
Under Zhen Xi's beautiful eyebrows, she said softly: "Brother Heng, it doesn't matter if I give the position of concubine to my sister."
Jia Heng nodded and said, "Let's take a look."
This matter still needs to be entangled with Zhen Qing, otherwise, women often do not cherish things that are obtained too easily.
Jia Heng's face paused slightly, and he gently took Zhen Xi's slender hand and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
Zhen Lan was still a little distracted at the moment.
Tan Chun looked at the young man in the python suit. Under his handsome eyebrows, his eyes were full of different emotions and he said, "Brother Heng, I'm going back first."
Jia Heng nodded and watched Tan Chun leave.
I have to take the time to go to Qiushuangzhai in the next two days, and then go see Tanchun.
When Tanchun left, Jia Heng looked at Yaruo and whispered: Yaruo, come here and let Brother Heng take a look."
Ya Ruo responded softly, then came close and squeezed Jia Heng's shoulder. Her charming and bright face showed an expression of joy and inexplicable joy.
Jia Heng stared at Zhen Lan, a smile appeared on his resolute face, and said softly: "What's wrong, what is Sister Lan thinking about now?"
Zhen Lan's pretty and bright face had a bit of a "forced smile" on her face, and she said, "It's nothing."
Jia Heng smiled and said jokingly: "Sister Lan, is this your intention to be the concubine?"
Zhen Lan was suddenly told the central issue, and her delicate body could not help but tremble slightly. She lowered her beautiful head slightly and said: "Brother Heng, I... I am the daughter of a prison officer, how can I be worthy of being a concubine of a county king?"
Jia Heng nodded and asked: "I remember that the Zhen family has been pardoned, so they are no longer prisoners. Besides, aren't your eldest sister and second sister both princesses? It's nothing like that."
When Zhen Lan heard this, her heart skipped a beat, and she said "ah", and her heart filled with anticipation again.
It can be said that at this moment, Jia Heng was completely manipulated.
Jia Heng picked up the tea cup on the side, took a sip of a cup, and said: "In the next two days, we will go to your eldest sister to see what we can do about this matter and let Xi'er be named the concubine."
Zhen Lan: "..."
Brother Heng, this...
Why is Xi'er the concubine?
So, what is going on?
It can be said that Zhen Lan's emotions were completely controlled by Jia Heng at this moment.
Zhen Xi pursed her slightly moist lips, and under her curved willow eyebrows, her bright eyes, as spiritual as a stream, could see traces of gleaming meaning.
Jia Heng took their delicate hands and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. My arms are a little sore. Please help me rub them."
With that said, he took Zhen Lan and Zhen Xi's hands and walked towards the inner room.
Yaruo also hurriedly followed, her face as cute and bright as a Fuji apple was full of expectation.
Brother Heng didn't even talk to him.
But, hum, Brother Heng will know it later.
Jia Heng took Zhen Lan's slender hand, gently pinched the girl's smooth and white chin, looked at those bright and delicate eyes, and said softly: "If Sister Lan becomes the concubine, how will all the affairs of the house be handled?"
, you should take more care of it."
Under Zhen Lan's beautiful eyebrows, her eyes were as bright as water, and she asked: "Brother Heng really wants to make me a concubine?"
Jia Heng looked at Zhen Lan and said softly: "Well, not necessarily."
Hearing this, Zhen Lan saw a hint of shame and annoyance in her narrow, clear eyes, and her bright, rainbow-like eyes, and said, "Brother Heng knows how to catch..."
Before she could finish speaking, she saw that the boy in the python suit had already put his arm around his shoulders, and suddenly he came close to his lips, and then pressed them completely against her, with a pleasant intimacy.
Immediately, Jia Heng stared at the face that was as red as drunk, and said softly: "Sister Lan."
At this time, he lowered his eyes and looked at Zhen Xi and Yaruo approaching, and saw two faces that were either pretty or cute and naive. They looked like lotus flowers side by side for a moment, so charming.
Jia Heng's eyebrows raised sharply, his eyes paused for a moment in his clear eyes, and he looked at Zhen Lan aside and said, "You three are really..."
It takes a lot of hard work to practice skills before you become extremely proficient.
Under Zhen Lan's curved eyebrows, her bright eyes were full of charm, and she said: "When the two of them were at home, they had nothing to do, so they randomly found some picture albums to look at, and they didn't know what tricks they learned from charming men.
.”
Jia Heng felt weird. Feeling the dexterity, softness and delicacy, he felt a little weird.
After a while, Jia Heng stared at the pink-cheeked girl and said softly: "Okay, stop making trouble, I'm so tired."
In fact, his threshold has been raised to a very high level now, and such scenes are just small scenes.
Zhen Lan now stretched out her slender hands, gently put her arms around the neck of the boy in the python suit, and took the initiative to bring it to the boy's lips, turning her passive into active.
Jia Heng gently kneaded the girl's soft and smooth shoulders, then without saying a word, he hugged Zhen Lan and walked to the bed.
As the golden hooks were lowered, the light yellow curtains dropped down. On the high table beside it, there was a half-person-high vase. Under the sunlight in winter, the blue and white porcelain glass reflected the gleaming light, and you can see the outline of it.
Hibiscus flowers are looming.
A song called "Yangguan Sandu" seems to have a silent rhythm coming out, with a bit of grace and charm.
…
…
When it was almost noon, in the dead of winter, the warm sunshine of the first day fell through a carved window lattice and fell on the wool carpet.
Jia Heng stared at the jade-white snow back, feeling dizzy and inexplicably dazzled. Among the round and plump snow, a line of pink was looming, opening and closing like a puff.
Jia Heng lowered his eyes and looked at the gently swaying beaded hairpin in a bun. His eyes were dazed for a moment, and there was a bit of relief on his face.
At this moment, Zhen Lan gave a soft "嘤咛" sound, and her pink and plump face was white and rosy, as bright as the clouds. Under the two curved willow leaves and thin eyebrows, among the shining eyes, it was Qin Qin.
Moisturizing and soft waves.
After Jia Heng spoke, he reached out and gently put his arm around Zhen Lan's shoulders, saying, "It's getting late, and I'm already hungry."
Not tired, but mainly hungry. After being noisy for a while, my physical strength was quite depleted.
Zhen Lan's plump and delicate body was as soft as silkworms at this moment, and her voice was filled with endless laziness as she said softly: "Brother Heng, I'm hungry too."
Zhen Xi's bright and bright eyes, as spiritual as a stream, seem to be filled with endless affection, just like a Persian cat with a gentle temperament.
Yaruo was also somewhat satisfied at this moment and buried her head in Zhen Xi's heart.
Just then he rode his horse and whipped his whip, making the girl feel quite happy.
While Jia Heng was speaking, he opened a brocade quilt embroidered with hibiscus flowers, put on a python suit, and ordered the maid to prepare hot water.
After Jia Heng finished bathing, not long after, he saw a maid carrying dishes and placing them on a lacquered wooden table. The dishes were steaming hot and fragrant.
Accompanied by a fragrant aroma coming from far and near, after a while, Zhen Lan, Zhen Xi and Ya Ruo were seen walking quickly.
While the three of them were talking, they also sat down.
Jia Heng picked up a pair of bamboo chopsticks, picked up the dishes, and used them slowly.
Under Zhen Xi Zhong's beautifully sculpted eyebrows, her beautiful eyes were full of spring charm, and she said softly: "Brother Heng."
Jia Heng smiled and said, "I will stay with you three today."
Hearing this, Zhen Lan's brows and eyes, as spiritual as a stream, filled with an indescribable joy.
Jia Heng said softly: "Sister Lan, what do you think the imperial court has to do now that the Han border troubles have been eliminated?"
This creates a certain degree of comparison.
When Zhen Lan heard this, her heart moved slightly, and a look of thought appeared on her jade face as white as snow, and she said: "Now that Liaodong has been pacified, the follow-up tasks should be to pacify and bring peace. As for other urgent tasks, I think it is the capital."
The undercurrent has been surging recently, and the matter of establishing the crown prince in the East Palace should be imminent."
Jia Heng smiled, with a hint of endless affection in his eyes, and praised: "No wonder the sisters in the house say that my sister is a female military aircraft. She is really well-deserved."
Zhen Lanfang felt a little shy, her narrow, clear phoenix eyes seemed to be filled with endless affection, and she said: "Brother Heng is overrated, who do I think I am?"
From now on, she will be Brother Heng's virtuous wife, and no one in the family can replace her.
Jia Heng smiled and asked: "Where do you think my sister will be in the next affairs of the Han Dynasty?"
"Prepare to build up a navy, set up extensive customs, and then there are the wars in the northwest and Tibet." Zhen Lan's clear and clear voice, which was as clear as gold and stone, was filled with a bit of coquettishness and certainty.
Jia Heng flew slantly under the sword-shaped eyebrows on his temples, looked at Zhen Xi with his clear, rainbow-like eyes, and said softly: "Xi'er, please give Xi'er a first-class royal title this time."
Except for some maids, most of the other royal ladies are first-class royal ladies.
Zhen Xi responded softly, feeling bursts of joy in her heart, and said softly: "Thank you, Brother Heng."
Jia Heng then picked up a pair of bamboo chopsticks and started using the food without saying anything else.
At midnight, Jia Heng let the three girls rest, then left Qichiyuan and headed to Daoxiang Village to find Li Wan.
Grand View Garden, Daoxiang Village——
At this moment, in the side room, a blazing fire can be seen in the brass charcoal brazier, and on one side of the soft couch covered with cotton mattress, Li Wan is dressed in a blue dress, with strands of hair combed into a beautiful bun.
The lower abdomen swells into a ball.
Sitting next to her is Mrs. Cao. Although she is already old, her beauty Jingchai wears a sarong and is quite dignified and bright, and her charm is still there.
Ms. Cao was holding a bowl of egg custard, holding a spoon in her hand, stirring the steamed egg custard, which was steaming.
He came closer, with a broad smile on his face, and said: "Okay, let's eat something. I haven't eaten much at noon."
"I'm vomiting badly." Li Wan's eyebrows were as curved as daisy, and his gentle and bright face was slightly pale.
Not far away, under a standing cabinet with various books, on the mahogany desk, Li Wen and Li Qi sat down and turned their faces. Two figures, either quiet or beautiful, appeared on them.
Show a hint of curiosity.
At this moment, the maid Suyun quickly entered the wing. Under her sword-shaped eyebrows, she looked at Li Wan with full eyes and said softly: "Grandma, the county prince is here."
Just as they were speaking, a young man in a python suit walked in quickly, met the eyes of Li Wan and Cao, and whispered: "Sister-in-law Wan."
Li Wan Xiuli raised her dark eyebrows, a look of joy appeared on her plump and jade face, and said: "Brother Heng, you are here."
Jia Heng's eyes were as warm as the rising sun, and he said: "Sister-in-law, come here to see you."
Mrs. Cao smiled and moved away from the bed where she was sitting, extended her hand to invite him, and said with a smile: "Brother Heng, sit over here."
The young man in front of me is already a prince, and her two daughters should be able to be granted the title of Madam.
…
…
Just when Jia Heng was spending time with his wife and concubines in Ningguo Mansion, Huayin County, not far from the sacred city——
In a square house, several roosters with bright feathers and strong bodies were wandering around the rice bowl, making constant cooing sounds.
Chen Yuan sat beside a window with carved lattice, staring at the sparkling lake outside in winter, anger rising on his face.
Ruan Yongde's eyes were piercing under his thick eyebrows, and he said with relief: "Master, if there is a will, things can be done. Master, there is no need to be discouraged. I heard from the informants in the palace that the dog emperor has lost his sight."
Although Emperor Chongping blocked the news, the White Lotus Sect's intelligence system controlled by Chen Yuan still captured some clues.
When Chen Yuan heard this, his eyes lit up inexplicably and asked: "Seriously?"
Ruan Yongde lowered his voice and said: "It was the message sent by Our Lady, and the matter was sealed very tightly."
Chen Yuan said coldly: "After the man lost his sight, it can be predicted that he will be more surly and suspicious. And with such a capable son-in-law in the capital, there will definitely be internal troubles."
Ruan Yongde said: "Young master is right, we still have to make a fuss from here."
Chen Yuan sneered and said: "That kid Jia Heng is also a scheming person. Now he protects himself and hangs out in the gentle land just because he is afraid of being suspected. But if you really want to be jealous, it will be a sin to live."
Ruan Yongde said: "Young master, you still have to do more to capture that person's strangeness."
Chen Yuan nodded and said: "You are right, it's hateful. Xiaoer is by his side and must know a lot of that kid's secrets, yet he is colluding with that kid."
Ruan Yongde said warmly: "Sir, we are now husband and wife."
Chen Yuan said in a low voice: "We don't have many chips left, and we don't have many opportunities. But before that, let's kill the man in the palace first."
Once the Liao army returns, it will not be easy to do anything else.
Chen Yuan thought for a moment and then asked, "Have you seen Gu Ruoqing recently?"
"Miss Gu, I haven't seen her in the past few days," Ruan Yongde said.
