Chapter 1542 Baochai: The title of prince? Is he going to become a prince?
Shenjing City, Ningguo Mansion
The night is low and the moon is high.
The season is gradually entering May, and the summer heat is scorching. Under a dark green banana tree, some mosquitoes and flies are already born.
The lights in the room are bright, reflecting the light, and circles of luster can be seen on the lacquered wood table, emitting from it.
In the three-legged and six-eared red sandalwood incense cage, a few wisps of refreshing fragrance are rising, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Jia Heng put down a blue and white porcelain tea cup in his hand and said quietly: "Qiu Liang is dead."
Chen Xiao asked: "Qu Lang wants to lure Chen Yuan out, what do you think?"
Jia Heng shook his head and said, "This may not be possible."
Chen Xiao said: "In the past few days, the Jingying Xiaoqi are patrolling the city defenses to prevent some bad guys from snooping on the city."
Jia Heng nodded and said: "This matter needs to be carefully monitored by someone. Over there in the palace, have Jia Fang and the others passed by?"
Chen Xiao said: "The palace guards have been replaced, and the inner and outer palaces are all patrolled by trusted generals."
Under Gu Ruoqing's beautiful eyebrows, her eyes were as bright as water as she looked at the couple, with a look of thoughtfulness on her face.
While Jia Heng was speaking, he did not hesitate much, left the hall and walked quickly towards the Grand View Garden.
He hasn't been with Baochai for a while now, so he happens to have free time and goes to see her together.
Grand View Garden, Hengwu Garden, among the wing rooms——
On a soft wooden couch under the window grille on the west side, you can see that there is a lacquered wood table with a blue and white porcelain teapot placed on it. Steam is rising from the spout, and wisps of fragrance are floating along with it.
Coming out makes people feel relaxed and happy.
Baochai is now wearing a plain dress, bun with no hairpin, and is playing Go with Baoqin.
It was rare for the two sisters to get together today and they had nothing to do to entertain themselves, so they started playing Go.
Baochai's slender figure raised her bright willow eyebrows, and her moist apricot eyes were like dew. She seemed to chuckle and said, "Sister Baoqin's chess skills have deteriorated compared to the past."
Baoqin's emerald willow eyebrows were as curved as a crescent moon at the moment, and her voice was a little soft as she said: "I have played a lot of chess pieces for Sister Yun in the past few days. Maybe she has led me to bad things."
Baochai chuckled and said softly: "You, you can't blame everything on Xiangyun."
Under Baoqin's eyebrows, he glanced sharply from side to side, lowered his voice, and said softly: "Sister, I heard from the maid in the house that there is a pair of twins in Daoxiang Village."
Hearing this, Baochai had a strange expression on his face. He immediately placed a chess piece on the apricot chess surface and said, "It seems like there is such a thing."
"Whose child is that?" Bao Qin responded softly, her eyelashes curled up, and she asked with a surprised look on her face.
The chess piece in Baochai's hand clicked, his face turned pale, and he said: "Well, you asked me, I really don't know which one it is."
Baoqin's curved and fine eyelashes cast a shadow, and the voice seemed to be lowered a little, and he said: "I heard from the maid in the house that it seems...it belongs to Brother Heng."
Brother Heng is also true, even the widow...is pregnant with a child.
When Baochai heard this, a look of surprise appeared in his slightly moist almond eyes, and he whispered: "Who are you listening to? You don't want to talk nonsense like this."
There was something unnatural about Baoqin's flawless white face, which looked like the petals of a pear blossom. She said warmly, "It seems that someone in the family said so."
Baochai frowned her emerald eyebrows, her moist apricot eyes were clear and slightly gleaming, and said in a deep voice: "What is going on with the servants in this house? Why are you talking nonsense!"
After all, she is the concubine, and she is angry now, but she has a bit of unparalleled power.
Baochai turned to look at the maid Ying'er on the side and whispered: "Ying'er, go talk to Sister-in-law Feng and see that there are servants over there who are catching wind and shadows and arranging the prince."
Ying'er responded softly, then turned and left the wing.
Baoqin raised her eyebrows, her eyes flickered, she looked at Baochai, and said softly: "Sister, when she gets angry, she is not much worse than those outside who work for officials."
Baochai's face paused slightly, his cold eyes were filled with concern, and he whispered: "I'm also worried about ruining the reputation of your eldest brother Heng."
Baoqin responded softly and said angrily: "Brother Heng, it's true. There are not enough... girls in this house for him, and he still has to go to Daoxiang Village."
Baochai's plump and lovely face felt a little melancholy for a moment. She seemed to sigh softly, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes, and said, "Isn't that what men are like?"
A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as stealing, and stealing is not as good as not being able to steal. Maybe a young girl like this has had enough fun and likes a wife.
Bao Qin snorted softly and said, "We'll have to wait until Brother Heng comes and we've got him."
When Baochai heard this, a light blush appeared on both sides of her plump, white face, and her pink lips looked like peach blossoms, rosy and bright.
A scene seemed to appear before his eyes, in which he and Bao Qin were stacked up against each other and bullied by that person.
Under Baoqin's willow eyebrows, her eyes, which were as moist as apricots, looked curiously at the beauty who suddenly twisted her eyebrows, and joked: "Sister, what are you thinking about? Your face is all red now."
Baochai's delicate face turned red with embarrassment, and she whispered, "I didn't think about anything."
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside the wing: "Is Sister Xue in the room?"
Then, while he was talking, he saw the tall and straight young man in python suit walking through the carved window panes of the arched frame, stepping into the side room, and looking at Baochai and Baoqin.
"Your Highness, you are here." Baochai stood up and looked at Jia Heng. Then she picked up a blue and white porcelain teapot, took the tea cup, and poured a cup into the tea cup.
Baoqin's eyebrows were curved, her clear eyes were deep and clear, and her voice was soft and charming as she called out: "Brother Heng."
Jia Heng looked at the chubby girl with a smile and asked, "Baoqin is here too."
Bao Qin said: "Come here and play chess with your sister and talk to relieve your boredom. Is Brother Heng finished with your work outside?"
"We're almost done." Jia Heng said softly, looked at Baochai curiously, and asked in surprise: "Sister Xue, why haven't I seen you these days?"
Baochai's face softened slightly, her eyes were as bright as water, and she said softly: "I just spend my free time in the house working as a prostitute, and there's not much else."
While Jia Heng was talking, he came to sit on a chair aside and said warmly: "Didn't Sister Lin come over?"
Under Baochai's Cuiyu beautiful eyebrows, her moist apricot eyes were slightly moist, and she said in a delicate voice: "Sister Lin has not been here for the past few days. She is resting in the house."
Jia Heng said warmly: "In the past few days, the court is in the period of national mourning. I have to be busy with external matters, so I didn't come over to talk to you."
Baochai said softly: "Your Majesty is busy with state affairs outside, so there is no need to cherish the love of his children in the backyard."
Jia Heng smiled and said: "It is indeed a national event."
Baochai stared at the young man in the python suit and asked: "Your Majesty, have the arrangements for the national funeral outside been finished?"
Although Baochai was in the inner house, he was always paying attention to the affairs outside the house, knowing that his own men had seized the supreme power of the Han Dynasty.
Jia Heng said: "It will take some time. In a few days, Emperor Xianzong will be buried and the new emperor will succeed to the throne. By the way, I may even be crowned a prince in the near future."
Baochai:"……"
Prince's title? Your Majesty, he is going to become a prince?
This is really another step forward.
There was joy and excitement in Baochai's heart, but there was no trace of any strange color on her plump and lovely jade cheeks. She said: "Your Majesty, since the founding of this dynasty, I have never heard of anyone with a different surname being awarded the title of prince.
Your Majesty is unprecedented."
Jia Heng's eyes flickered and he said loudly: "Yes, this is the first time. I don't know how many more disturbances will occur in the future."
Baochai couldn't hide the joy in his voice, and said: "Your Majesty has helped protect the country and has served for three dynasties. In terms of merit, qualifications, and reputation, it is considered sufficient."
Jia Heng said softly: "I dare not say that I truly deserve the title, but I also have a clear conscience."
While talking, he sat down on a soft wooden couch, picked up the blue and white porcelain tea cup, and took a sip, but he felt the fragrance lingering in his teeth and cheeks, flowing back and forth.
Baoqin now walked around behind Jia Heng, coming close enough to give Jia Heng a gentle squeeze on his shoulders from behind.
While Jia Heng was speaking, he took a sip of tea, and there was a somewhat contented look on his face.
Baochai's face softened slightly, and under her slender eyebrows, her soft and gentle eyes seemed to be tracing the contours of the young man's face inch by inch, and she said softly: "Your Majesty, my brother said that the palace has approved the family's business, so no more
Deliberately making things difficult."
Jia Heng nodded and said, "That's good. Just let your brother do business well."
As he said that, he gently took Baochai's soft, delicate hand, smiled softly, and said, "I haven't seen you in the past few days, let me see if I have lost weight."
Baochai's plump and pleasant face was already as red as a blush. Looking from a distance, it was clearly as bright as fire. Her voice was cute and inexplicable, and she said: "Your Majesty, it's not dark yet."
Jia Heng couldn't help but responded softly, looked at Baochai with a flash of dew, and said softly: "Sister Xue, go to the inner room to talk."
As he spoke, he took Baochai's soft and soft hand and walked quickly towards the inner room.
??????????.??????
On the other side of the room, Jia Heng turned to look at Bao Qin and said softly: "Sister Bao Qin, what are you doing in a daze right now? Let's go together."
Bao Qin's plump and lovely face turned red at this moment, and responded softly, then followed Jia Heng towards the inner compartment.
Jia Heng sat down on the bed covered by curtains, while Baochai and Baoqin squatted down, rustlingly untied the young man's python robe, and served the young man in the python suit.
Baochai came closer, her soft and chubby little hands came closer, her plump and lovely face was as bright as fire, her sandalwood mouth was slightly open, and lilacs were curled up.
Xue Baoqin also lifted a strand of hair hanging down on the side of her face behind her ears. Under the Cuiyu eyebrows, her moist and slightly apricot eyes were already full of charming clear waves.
This is undoubtedly very rare for a chubby girl.
At this moment, Jia Heng's eyebrows showed an indescribable sense of comfort.
But I saw that it was summer, and there was a heavy rain outside the window. The rain was hitting the banana trees, crackling, and bringing with it a bit of coolness to dispel the heat.
The curtains on the curtains fluttered with the wind, and the silhouettes of the three people could be seen, reflected on a brocade screen.
I don't know how long it took, but Jia Heng turned his eyes and looked at the two chubby girls with rosy cheeks who had been stuffed into puffs. There was also some inexplicable joy in his heart.
At this moment, a strand of Baochai's lush, green hair stuck to her temples with sweat. Under her curved green-feathered eyebrows, her moist apricot eyes shone brightly, and she could see traces of her charm overflowing in her eyes.
Jia Heng's face was calm, his eyes looked at Baochai warmly, and he said softly: "Sister Xue, it's getting late, I'll go back first."
Baochai's plump and lovely face was blushing like a blush, her delicate and straight Qiongbi snorted softly, and a light blush appeared on both sides of her plump and bright jade cheeks, which were white and rosy, and her charm was moving.
Baoqin Yingying's eyes were full of reluctance and she whispered: "Brother Heng, are you leaving?"
Jia Heng pinched the chubby girl's plump cheeks, smiled softly, and said, "You and your sister have a good rest, I have something else to do."
Baoqin responded softly and watched Jia Heng leave.
…
…
Two days later, Daming Palace, Hanyuan Hall——
On this day, the sky was clear and the breeze was gentle. The gentle breeze blew the willows planted on both sides of the street, and the green willow leaves fluttered gently in the wind.
A large number of civil and military officials, each standing according to their rank, wearing official robes of various colors, holding an ivory jade scepter as white as jade, stood in the open space paved with white marble railings in front of the palace.
Looking from a high altitude at this moment, the white flags are hung, and the filial piety cloth is white with frost, which is a spectacular sight.
The majestic and majestic palace in front of us stands tall and majestic, covered with glazed tiles that shine brightly in the summer sun.
Under the eaves of the corridor with green bricks and black tiles, there were guards in brocade robes holding iron halberds, with a white mourning cloth wrapped around their foreheads and arms, clearly enveloped in an atmosphere of sadness and sadness.
From time to time, the mourning sounds of female relatives could be heard in the side hall, gradually spreading the mournful atmosphere to the outside of the hall. The civil and military ministers of the Han Dynasty, holding ivory and jade sabers, were either fat or thin, old or
There was also a look of sadness on Zhong's face.
"Every minister, come into the palace to worship." The eunuch outside the threshold of the palace shouted in a high-pitched voice.
The civil and military officials who were waiting in line slowly walked quickly towards the palace.
In the hall, Zhen Qing held the child in her arms and sat on a golden chair. The beauty was dressed in white mourning clothes. There was a bead curtain in front of her. She could see the figure clearly, but she couldn't see it clearly.
A group of civil and military ministers entered the palace, bowed to Zhen Qing, who was sitting on the golden chair, and the child in her arms, and said: "I have seen the queen and the prince, who are thousands of years old."
"Everyone is safe." As Zhen Qing spoke, she held her pink-carved and jade-carved son in her arms and said softly to the ministers below.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." All the civil and military ministers below responded and said.
Under Zhen Qing's beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows, her sparkling phoenix eyes couldn't help but glance at the young man in python suit standing at the front of the court, holding his hands, and then glanced at the ministers below.
The beauty was now wearing a white filial piety dress, with a white belt around her waist that set off her graceful and graceful figure. Under her delicate and bright willow eyebrows, she stared at the young man in the python suit and said: "My lords, after the new emperor succeeds to the throne,
Unfortunately, he died, leaving only me, the prince, orphans and widowed mother. Fortunately, Prince Wei and the ministers in the cabinet turned the tide and supported the building from collapse, so that the situation of our Han Dynasty was stable and unruffled."
All the courtiers below responded and listened respectfully to Ci's instructions.
After Zhen Qing finished her brief opening remarks, she said in a clear voice: "Read the edict."
At this moment, an eunuch with a white marble shaft and an imperial edict on bright yellow silk came forward and said loudly: "Ministers, please accept the edict."
All the civil and military ministers below knelt down and listened respectfully to the imperial edict.
Suddenly, in the solemn and solemn hall, there was silence, and you could hear a pin drop.
"The emperor was entrusted with the destiny of heaven, and the edict said: I inherited the ancestral legacy of Huang Kao, and inherited the great unification. I was about to carry on the past and open up the future, and be vigorous and promising. However, God did not miss the year, and I was assassinated at the hands of a traitor..."
As the inner prisoner's clear voice sounded, the officials in the palace listened quietly, with varying expressions on their faces.
Mainly because the new emperor passed away just a year after he took the throne, which was really confusing.
Of course, the new emperor was suddenly assassinated, and everyone knew that all this was drafted by the cabinet. Otherwise, it would be too weird for the imperial edict to be drafted before he was assassinated.
The general purpose of the imperial edict is to let the Crown Prince of the East Palace succeed to the throne.
"Long live my emperor, long live the emperor." All the ministers present saluted Zhen Qing and the Prince of the East Palace, Chen Jie, who were seated above them.
Zhen Qing was holding her son in her arms at the moment, listening to the sound of the mountains below shouting "Long Live Long Live", and she couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement in her heart.
In fact, it is not only men who are power-hungry, women are also human beings who also have a desire for power, but they are not as blessed as men who seek power.
After a while, when the eunuch stood up, he took another bright yellow imperial edict scroll, and a high-pitched voice sounded, loudly saying: "The Emperor is destined to be transported by heaven, and the edict says: I have heard the praise of the virtuous, and rewarded the best talents.
Duke Heng, the prince of the county, is loyal to the country, proclaims his kindness, supports the young master, and stabilizes the country. He is specially promoted to the title of prince to commend his merits and deeds."
To defend the king from one's own defense is undoubtedly a crucial step.
Jia Heng was standing in the courtroom of the military ministers below, with a somewhat inexplicable look on his face, and said loudly: "I thank you, Your Majesty, long live long live long live."
However, just after receiving the imperial edict, a commotion was heard in the palace.
At this moment, one of the officials from the Department of Science and Technology below came out of court and said loudly: "Wei ministers think that the prince of Wei County has been granted the title of prince, which is really not true."
While he was talking, he saw a young censor among the officials of the department. His handsome face was full of righteousness and stern words. He looked at the young man in python suit with stern eyes and scolded: "Prince Wei,
Do you want to rebel?"
Jia Heng frowned and looked at Li Zan, the chief minister of the cabinet, with a look of shock and anger in his eyes.
Is this to allow Ke Dao Yanguan to come out to cause trouble and prevent him from getting off stage?
Of course, there are many officials in Kedao, so not all of them may obey Li Zan's orders, and the cabinet does not have this control.
At this moment, Li Zan came out of the courtroom, stared at Nakedao Yanguan, and reprimanded: "It is the day when the new emperor ascends the throne. The atmosphere is so solemn and solemn. You are roaring and causing trouble here. Why are you here?"
?”
The Kedao Yanguan's eyes were fierce and flashing, as if he was staring at Li Zan, and he said in a deep voice: "Mr. Li Ge, is there a prince with a different surname in our court? The ambition of Prince Wei is so obvious, how can we allow them to be unbridled?"
"
Zhen Qing's flawless jade face was like a thin layer of clear frost, and she whispered: "Where did the rebellious officials and traitors come from? They are roaring in the court here. Someone comes and forks them out!"
The young Ke Dao Yanguan's expression paused slightly, his eyes flickered, and he said loudly: "The coffins of Emperor Xianzong and Emperor Guangzong are both here. If you hear about the princes with different surnames, they will not be able to rest in peace even under the underworld."
Li Zan frowned and scolded: "Someone, please take it out."
At this moment, two guards in royal robes came in from the outside, set up the lecterns, and hurried out of the hall.
But Na Kedaoyan's words, at this moment, seemed to ignite the first spark of dynamite, instantly exploding the entire warehouse.
At this time, a younger censor said loudly: "Prince Wei, since you claim to be a loyal and righteous minister and a minister of the country, why don't you resign from the title of prince to clear up suspicions at home and abroad?"
At this moment, among the six departments, a Taoist official from the same department held an ivory jade scepter and said loudly: "Prince Wei."
After a while, Jia Heng turned his head and looked at the few people who were being carried away by the guards of the Jinyi Palace and walked away quickly. There was a gloomy and inexplicable look on their faces.
Then, all the ministers in the palace came out one after another and began to impeach Jia Heng, either with righteousness, threats with public opinion or morality, or with sincere words.
In short, this attitude made Jia Heng aware of the situation and resigned from the title of prince in the name of Quan Zhongyi.
Then, while Jia Heng was speaking, he cast his cold and stern eyes on all the ministers in the palace, gave a deep drink, and said in a low voice: "Everyone, since Emperor Chengxianzong appointed me to the throne, I have conquered the south and the north, east and west.
What's the point of not slacking off even for a single day, but you are standing high in the temple, talking empty talk, and blaming me all the time?"
At this moment, the atmosphere in the palace fell silent for a moment.
