Chapter 1571 Jia Heng: The emperor controls the nine states, and there are five ministers



It's June, and the weather changes at a moment's notice.

The night is dark and the summer rain is pouring. Looking from a distance, you can see the green and beautiful Cangshan Mountains, undulating and shadowy in the sky and earth locked in rain and fog.

The horse galloped towards the county town, which was dimly lit with lights in the distance. The group of people came to an inn with thatched eaves.

Ruan Yongde, King Wei, and King Liang entered the second floor of the inn, entered the private room, and sat down with cheers.

Wei Wang Chen Ran stared at Ruan Yongde and said: "What's going on over there in Sichuan?"

Ruan Yongde's expression paused slightly, and he looked at the King of Wei with shining eyes, and said: "Many disciples of my sect are in the land of Bashu. As long as you greet them a little, the clouds will rise and the beacon will rise."

Wei Wang Chen Ran frowned, with a look of worry in his eyes, and said: "The imperial army is brave and good at fighting, so it should not be underestimated."

Jia Ziyu's military skills were unpredictable, and he really didn't have much confidence.

King Liang spoke without thinking, and couldn't help but say: "The White Lotus sect is just a bunch of rabble, how can it be possible to defeat the brave and capable officers and soldiers?"

Wei Wang Chen Ran tugged on a corner of Liang Wang's sleeve under the table, indicating that Liang Wang didn't need to say anything. Then, he looked at Ruan Yongde and said, "In the land of Bashu, how is the fighting strength of the government and army?"

Ruan Yongde took over the conversation and said: "The officers and soldiers are all our own people. When the time comes the troops will be together, it won't be a big deal if the officers and soldiers turn a blind eye."

King Wei Chen Ran nodded and asked, "Have the Gao family not come here yet?"

After he arrived in Bashu, he united his troops and horses, followed the example of Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, raised troops from the land of Bashu, and established a generation of hegemony.

Ruan Yongde said: "The second and third sons of the Gao family took another route and should not have come here now."

King Liang frowned, his eyes were deep, and he said: "Didn't I say before that Junggar and Heshuote can also send troops and respond to each other from a distance?"

Ruan Yongde nodded and said: "Junggar and Heshuote have sent people to contact us. When something happens here, soldiers and horses in the entire southwest and northwest will mobilize to respond. Even though there are hundreds of thousands of elites in the court, there are still

Unable to withstand the fires on two frontiers, the left and right are overwhelmed, and it is difficult to resist."

King Wei's eyes were deep, and his heart could not help but be filled with great pride.

The King of Liang said coldly: "We must make a big fuss this time! Otherwise, Jia Heng's military skills are like a god, and if we let him put down the rebellion, we will be in trouble."

Ruan Yongde had a look of disdain on his face and said: "Don't worry, Your Highness the King of Liang. Now the King of Wei is unpopular. When the time comes, the heroes and righteous men in the local prefectures and counties will definitely respond in large numbers, and the benevolent people in the capital will definitely be strong and tenacious."

King Liang raised his eyebrows, his cold eyes flashed, and said in a low voice: "The whole city of Shenjing is controlled by that King Wei."

At this moment, a burly young guard quickly entered the government hall, pondered for a moment, and said loudly: "General, the young master is here."

Ruan Yongde looked solemn and said in a low voice: "Your Highnesses, wait a moment, I will go to greet you."

King Wei's expression remained unchanged and resolute. Under his calm brows, a dark look flashed in his eyes.

This is the first time I met Chen Yuan.

This remnant of the former King of Zhao had planned countless conspiracies and stirred up countless troubles. Even the death of his father was indirectly related to Chen Yuan.

As he was speaking, the door creaked slightly, and immediately, the young man with furrowed brows and deep furrows could be seen walking into the hall.

Chen Yuan's fair and clear face seemed to be filled with a prosperous smile, and he said, "Two cousins, long time no see."

At this moment, there was a heavy rain outside the window, lightning and thunder, and the light in the wing was white.

King Wei and King Liang stood up, raised their eyes to look at the "father-killing enemy" Chen Yuan, bowed their hands and said, "cousin."

Chen Yuan said in a low voice: "You and I are both fallen people from the end of the world. Now the Jia thieves are controlling the government in the capital and want to usurp the Han Dynasty's artifacts. You and I should work together to cut off the profits."

Chen Ran, King of Wei, said: "What my cousin is saying is that we, the Han Dynasty, have been a country for hundreds of years, and have been through many generations of emperors and have worked hard and diligently. How can we allow ministers with foreign surnames to steal the world?"

Jia Ziyu, regardless of whether he had an affair with his mother or not, still controlled the government affairs.

In fact, no one cares whether Zhen Qing's twins and Empress Song's twins are Jia Heng's. The rebellion just needs an excuse!

And this excuse is precisely the result of Jia Heng's long-term lecherous persona to the outside world.





Ningguo Mansion, Grand View Garden

Jia Heng chatted with Miaoyu for a while in the Cuicui Temple, but did not linger much, but headed towards the backyard.

In the evening, twilight is closing and the sky is getting dark. One can see the lanterns hanging on the eaves of the corridor, making circles of red under the light and shadow.

At this moment, Qin Keqing was teasing her daughter Jia Fu in the house. Not far away was Miaoyu's daughter, Jia Mo, in the arms of Third Sister You, letting her hold her.

At this moment, Jia Mo was stuffing a candy man into her mouth and eating it happily.

The maid came quickly, with a prosperous smile in her voice, and said: "Princess, the prince is here."

Qin Keqing raised her eyebrows, her eyes flickered, and she said softly: "Why are you here?"

Jia Heng had a warm smile on his face, and with some inexplicable meaning in his eyes, he said, "Come and see you and your daughter."

"Daddy." Jia Fu's voice was soft and delicate, and her palm-sized face clearly showed a hint of excitement.

Jia Mo's eyes were as bright and crystal clear as black grapes, and her voice was soft and charming as she whispered: "Daddy, kiss~"

Jia Fu had a smile on her face as white as snow, and looked at the boy in the python suit with sparkling eyes. She stretched out her two little hands, waved towards Jia Heng, and said softly: "Daddy, give me a hug."

.”

Jia Heng didn't say much as he spoke. He hugged his daughter, turned his face, looked at Jia Mo beside him with a warm smile, stretched out his hand and quickly picked her up, joked, and said: "Mo

Son, eat less sweets and be careful not to damage your teeth."

At this moment, Third Sister You said with a smile: "She doesn't listen even if I tell her, well, let your father discipline you."

As he said that, he came closer and pinched the little guy's face, which could make water flow when he pinched it. There was a bit of endearment in his eyes.

Jia Heng sat down and teased his two daughters, his eyes full of affection.

Qin Keqing's eyebrows were as soft as water, and she asked: "Husband, there should be nothing wrong in the past two days, right?"

Jia Heng's eyes were warm and he smiled and said: "I've only been free for a while recently, and there's nothing else."

Qin Keqing raised her eyebrows, looked at Jia Heng with her beautiful eyes as bright as water, and said in a low voice: "Tomorrow is my father's seventieth birthday. If my husband is free tomorrow, why don't we go to the house together."

"I don't have anything to do tomorrow, so I can go take a look." Jia Heng nodded and responded.

Immediately, Jia Heng's expression paused slightly, and he whispered: "Tomorrow, Zhao Shangshu should come to the house to celebrate his birthday. I happen to have something to do here, so I will go and see Zhao Shangshu."

Now that Lu Jiang has left the cabinet, Zhao Yi, Minister of Industry, is suitable to join the cabinet, but this matter requires careful planning and cannot be careless.

Qin Keqing's face was calm and bright. She responded softly and said warmly: "Shang Shu Zhao should have come that day."

Jia Heng picked up his two daughters and said, "Let's go over there tomorrow and have a look."

Qin Keqing nodded and said warmly: "Husband, it's getting late. Sister-in-law You said she has something to talk to husband about these two days."

Jia Heng nodded and looked at Youshi aside, his heart moved inexplicably.

It's just that Youshi missed him.

While Jia Heng was speaking, he handed Fu'er and Mo'er to Second Sister You and Third Sister You, got up and followed You towards the back room.





The next day, early in the morning, in front of the gate of Ningguo Mansion, two big snow-white lions were washed away spotlessly, their snow-white color was shining brightly, and they could make people's shadows shine through.

Jia Heng and Qin Keqing got on a carriage with a high shaft, and headed towards Qin's house accompanied by the retinue of the Jia family's nuns and maids.

In Qin's house, an old servant had already stood on the lintel of the house, with a beaming smile on his deep-cut face, welcoming and seeing off the visiting guests.

Qin Ye has been an official in the Ministry of Industry for many years. He is a kind and generous person and is quite popular among his colleagues. Therefore, many people came to greet him at this time.

At this moment, the guard standing at the door loudly shouted: "King Wei's chariot is here."

While he was talking, the servant standing at the door came quickly and surrounded the driver to greet him.

As the carriage and horses stopped at the roadside, Jia Heng helped Qin Keqing get out of the carriage, and then several nuns got off the carriage holding a pair of twins.

Immediately, a group of people entered the mansion.

Qin Ye was talking with Zhao Yi, the visiting minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Qin Zhong was accompanying him.

At this moment, Qin Ye heard that his subordinates had come to report, and he stood up and said, "Master Zhao, please sit here and I will come as soon as I go."

Zhao Yi nodded, got up as well, and said, "I'll go there together."

While Qin Ye was speaking, he quickly came under the eaves of the corridor, greeted the general, called him, and said loudly: "King Wei."

At this moment, Zhao Yi stared at the young man in the python suit and couldn't help but feel slightly moved.

Jia Heng walked a few steps, saluted Qin Ye, and said, "My son-in-law has met my father-in-law."

Qin Keqing also came close and saluted Qin Ye.

Zhao Yi looked at the young man in the python suit with complicated eyes under his thick eyebrows that looked like sharp blades. He bowed his hands and said, "I have met King Wei."

Jia Heng quickly stretched out his hand to support him, his face paused slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Shang Shu Zhao has definitely defeated me."

After the few people exchanged pleasantries, they walked towards the hall and sat down while talking.

At this moment, the servant brought a cup of fragrant tea, and then slowly left.

Qin Ye nodded and asked: "Zi Yu, is the case where the Imperial College gathered at Anshun Gate ended?"

Jia Heng's eyes flickered and he said warmly: "It's over. Now the capital has calmed down."

Qin Ye twirled a few strands of beard under his chin with his hands, his face was as calm as Xuan Shui, and his voice was full of emotion, and he said: "Some time ago, Beijing was in a state of ups and downs, but now it is finally a little calmer."

Jia Heng nodded and whispered: "There was some chaos some time ago."

Qin Yedao: "A cabinet minister, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, has become a prisoner of his subordinates. There has been quite a lot of trouble recently."

At this moment, although Zhao Yi on the side was holding a blue and white porcelain teacup in his hand and gently sipping the steaming tea, he was secretly paying attention to it.

"Anyone who violates national laws and regulations will be shown no mercy, no matter who it is," Jia Heng said in a slightly stern tone.

Qin Ye nodded and said, "That's true."

Jia Heng said loudly: "The emperor controls the nine states, and there are five assistant ministers. Now there are four of the five ministers in the cabinet, and there is still a lack of one minister. In the next few days, the court will select people with both ability and political integrity to join the cabinet to assist the government.

,Assistant military commander."

Qin Ye nodded, twirling three locks of gray beard under his chin, and said loudly: "Now that the young master is in charge of the country, he needs to choose assistant ministers to help manage the yin and yang, so as to prevent the country from being in ruins."

Jia Heng's face was as calm as Xuanshui's, and he said loudly: "There is not much information about this matter yet, but it is no longer possible to choose a cabinet minister like Lu Jiang to join the cabinet. It is necessary to choose a young and virtuous elder to join the cabinet."

Pavilion, sitting on the board of directors."

As he said that, Jia Heng glanced at Zhao Yi, who was standing beside him.

Zhao Yi picked up a blue and white porcelain tea cup and said, "What King Wei said is quite reasonable. Nowadays, the government needs to be stable and should not be too turbulent."

Jia Heng nodded, shouted deeply, and said: "But there are always some people who don't know the general situation. Even if there is no wind, they will set off three-foot waves and cause wind and rain."

At this moment, Qin Ye's old face was filled with a smile, and he said loudly: "It's getting late, let's take a seat first."

While everyone was talking, they then went to a side hall and sat down together.

On the other side, Qin Keqing was holding Jia Fu and was talking with Qin Zhong's wife Zhao, teasing the little girl.

Qin Ye's face paused slightly, and he said loudly: "Now that the new policy is in full swing in the court, everything is in place, so there is nothing wrong."

Jia Heng nodded and said: "Although the world is in great peace now, there are still many local people. I wonder if the craftsmen have ever made the cement thing I mentioned to my father-in-law before?"

If he wants to obtain the abdication position reasonably and legally, he must win one victory after another in domestic affairs and military affairs, seize huge prestige, and gain the support of people.

Qin Ye nodded and said in a low voice: "The Ministry of Industry has organized craftsmen to take care of this matter, and there has been some progress. In order to speed up the construction of Emperor Xianzong's tomb, cement has been used, and the effect is remarkable.

"

When Jia Heng heard this, his eyes were as bright as water under his eyebrows, and there was a look of surprise on his face, and he said, "Why didn't your father-in-law tell me before?"

Cement can be said to be a magical tool for road construction. If we can obtain this material and strengthen the official roads, then the world's transportation will be convenient and commerce will prosper.

"There have been recent political turmoils in Beijing. Ziyu is in charge of this matter, but I forgot about it before." Qin Ye said from the side.

Zhao Yi was listening to the conversation between the two and secretly remembered the cement in his mind.

It seems unusual that this thing was so valued by King Wei.

Jia Heng nodded, his eyes flickered, and he said warmly: "My father-in-law can preside over the reconstruction of officialdom in the world."

Qin Ye frowned and said, "Ziyu wants to expand official roads? With such a large-scale construction project and heavy corvee labor, I'm afraid there will be many complaints from the people in the world."

Zhao Yi nodded and agreed: "Now that the situation in the imperial court is turbulent, it is better to be quiet than to be active."

Jia Heng's face paused slightly, and he said in a low voice: "The Jurchens from Liaodong were still in the prison camps. We can't let their disciples consume our rice grains. I'll requisition a batch and go to build roads. Besides, this matter doesn't matter."

Be anxious, take your time and figure it out."

Qin Ye said: "That's not bad."

Jia Heng's eyebrows were raised, his eyes were deep, and he said in a low voice: "Master Yue-in, Mr. Zhao, please eat first."

Zhao Yi nodded, said nothing else, and started to move a pair of chopsticks.

In the inner compartment of another splendid mica screen, Qin Keqing and Qin Zhong's wife Zhao can be seen talking together.

Zhao's side compartment was holding Fu'er, who was carved in pink and jade. Her heart couldn't help but bursts of love, and she whispered: "Fu'er is really getting heavier."

Under Qin Keqing's curved eyebrows, her bright eyes were warm, and she smiled and joked: "You have been a prostitute for a year. If you like children, you can have one."

Hearing this, Mr. Zhao was filled with embarrassment and anger. Her face, as white as snow, suddenly turned white, her cheeks glowed like fire, and her beautiful head dropped.





palace

Just when Jia Heng took his wife and children to his father-in-law's house to celebrate his birthday, Queen Song was already worried to the extreme.

"How could Ran'er leave the palace?" Empress Song murmured with a hint of worry on her jade face as crystal clear as snow.

The female officer's eyes were gentle and she said, "My dear, the Jinyi Mansion said that the guards were lax, which allowed the bad guys to take advantage of it."

Queen Song said softly: "Go and find King Wei."

When the female official heard this, she didn't say much else. She just gave her a blessed greeting and responded gently.

Empress Song's face as white as snow changed, her emerald eyebrows frowned, and a hint of thought appeared in her shining eyes.

At this moment, a graceful and beautiful female official from outside the palace entered the palace and said softly: "Your Majesty, Concubine Rong is here."

When Empress Song heard this, she was surprised and raised her eyes to look at the beauty behind a beautiful mica screen.

After a while, I saw a beautiful woman with a beautiful topknot and a gorgeous face, walking around a splendid mica screen, with lush hair on the temples, fragrant cheeks and plump waist.

"Sister." Concubine Duanrong walked forward slowly, looked at Empress Song with soft eyes, and said softly: "I heard that the two children Ran'er and Wei'er have escaped from Shenjing City."

Empress Song's jade face, as crystal clear as snow, was covered with worry, and she said in a trembling voice: "Sister, I was just saying that I was worried about this matter."

Princess Duanrong's Cuili eyebrows were curved, her eyes were deep, and she said softly: "How should I say it?"

Queen Song nodded and said, "I'll ask that little...King Wei later."

Concubine Duanrong thought for a while and said, "I can only ask Ziyu about this matter."

"We have sent someone to summon you." Empress Song said softly, with a look of sadness on her flawless snow-skinned jade face, and her tone was full of annoyance as she said, "What do you mean about these two children?"

,Why do you want to escape from Shenjing City?"

Concubine Duanrong frowned her beautiful eyebrows, her eyes were as bright as water, and said softly: "How can the two of them be so willing? I'm afraid that the bad guys will take advantage of them and cause trouble outside, and let Zi Yu calm down. At that time, it was really

He’s just dead.”

Queen Song's cold and frosty jade face was as pale as paper, and she murmured: "I'm worried about this too."

Concubine Duanrong said: "I don't know where they are now."

Queen Song said: "You must find it back as soon as possible, otherwise, it will be a problem if this continues."

Concubine Duanrong nodded and said nothing else.
