Shenjing City, Ningguo Mansion
In the back house, in the hall——
Qin Keqing sat on a wooden chair made of pear blossoms, with a hint of rouge rising up and down on her gentle and bright face.
Youshi wore a blue embroidered dress, with a silver hairpin between her lush and green hair, which was combed into an exquisite and beautiful bun.
On the beauty's side, her flat belly is slightly bulging, and her bright-skinned jade face seems to be covered with a layer of blush, which is bright and moving under the sunlight.
On another pearwood chair, there were two sisters, Second Sister You and Third Sister You, sitting there. A crimson blush seemed to float on their elegant and clear faces.
"Eldest sister is pregnant this time, and the fetus in her belly should be a twin." Third Sister You said in a low voice, under her emerald eyebrows, her beautiful eyes were shining like water and as soft as water.
A bit of beautiful blush appeared on both sides of You's rosy jade face, and she whispered: "This hasn't happened yet, who knows?"
After saying that, Youshi turned to look at Second Sister You aside and asked curiously: "Second Sister, how are you now?"
The second sister You is pretty, with bright red clouds on both sides of her bright face.
Ming Li's brows were filled with inexplicable shyness, and she whispered: "I have just become pregnant, but I have a severe reaction to morning sickness, and nothing else. I can't compare to my eldest sister. This is a twin brother and a girl."
On the other side of the room, Youshi snorted softly, and under her emerald willow eyebrows, her crystal-clear beautiful eyes were as bright as water, and she said warmly: "What are you talking about? There's no baby yet."
As You spoke, she turned to look at the beautiful Third Sister You and asked, "Where is Third Sister?"
Third Sister You stretched out her hand to gently caress her slightly bulging belly. There seemed to be a trace of sadness on her jade face that looked a little gorgeous, and she whispered in a low voice: "I'm not like that yet. I don't have any morning sickness at the moment."
reaction."
At this moment, I saw a slender and beautiful maid coming quickly from outside. She stared at Sister You and said, "Princess, the prince is back."
Qin Keqing responded softly, then raised her eyes to see that the beautiful red face and snowy skin were covered with traces of surprise.
After a moment, I saw the tall young man in python suit coming from outside, his face was calm and resolute, and there was a hint of thinking in his eyes.
Qin Keqing asked: "You are here."
At this moment, Mrs. You, Second Sister You, and Third Sister You all turned their attention to the young man in the python suit, and called out softly, "Your Majesty."
With a prosperous smile on his face, Jia Heng said warmly: "Come and see you."
He just couldn't help but think of the conversation with the Holy Mother of White Lotus, but you did have some evil ways, and there was still no movement in your stomach.
While talking, Jia Heng came to a pear wood chair beside a lacquered wood table. Then the servant served him a cup of steaming tea, turned around, and slowly retreated.
Under Qin Keqing's emerald willow eyebrows, her sparkling beautiful eyes were as soft as water, and she said loudly: "I just heard from Third Sister that the imperial court has won the war in Tibet."
Jia Heng said with a hint of joy and lightness in his tone: "King Meng has recovered Tibet, and the imperial court's use of troops in the southwest has come to an end."
Qin Keqing's eyes flickered and he said: "Then this year's war is over."
Jia Heng was silent for a moment and said warmly: "Yes, we will see what happens when the time comes."
Then, Jia Heng looked at Qin Keqing aside with a smile, looked surprised, and asked curiously: "Why don't you see Fu'er?"
Qin Keqing's crystal clear jade face was as white as snow, and her voice was soft and soft as she said, "Fu'er and Mo'er went to the Grand View Garden to play."
Jia Heng said warmly: "The two of them want to be naughty. Sometimes, they act like children."
My daughter is now six or seven years old. A few years later, she will be wearing a skirt, a hairpin, a ring and a coat in the Grand View Garden, her makeup is gorgeous, and she is charming.
With a smile on her face, Sanjie You covered her mouth and said, "Your Majesty, it's getting late, it's time to eat."
Jia Heng smiled and said warmly: "Okay, let the kitchen prepare the meal."
Then, everyone came to this side of the room and sat down.
A maid with a bright face, her eyes as bright as water, called out: "Miss Fu'er and Miss Mo'er are here."
After a while, Jia Fu and Jia Mo saw their faces full of smiles and said warmly: "Father, you are here."
A fatherly smile appeared on Jia Heng's face and he said, "Fu'er, where did you and your sister Mo'er go to play?"
Jia Fu's delicate little face seemed to be filled with a prosperous smile, and her voice was sweet and waxy as she said softly: "My sister and I went flying a kite."
As he spoke, he reached out and gently held the delicate hand of his sister Jia Mo.
Jia Mo's pink and pretty little face was also covered with a sweet smile.
Sanjie You raised her emerald eyebrows, her cold and sparkling eyes seemed to contain sparkling light, and she said softly: "It will be great if I have a little girl like this in the future."
Youshi smiled and said, "You must have a baby this time."
Second Sister You was quietly listening to the conversation of several people. She stretched out her hand to gently caress her swollen belly. Her charming face was covered with a light blush on both sides, making her look bright and moving.
Jia Heng said warmly: "No matter who among you three gives birth to a daughter, she will treat it as her own daughter."
Qin Keqing's delicate and upright Qiongbi couldn't help but snort, and glanced at Youshi, Second Sister You, and Third Sister You with her crystal clear eyes, and sighed quietly in her heart.
Everyone else has three daughters, but she has none.
At this moment, a beautiful maid ran into the hall and said warmly: "Princess, Prince, Mrs. You is here."
Mrs. You, naturally Mrs. You.
Ever since she found out that Mrs. You, Second Sister You, and Third Sister You were pregnant, Mrs. You was extremely ecstatic and often came over to see Jia Heng.
After a while, I saw Mrs. You dressed in silk and satin. Her wrinkled face seemed to be smiling. As she spoke, she walked closer, stared at the young man in the python suit, and said, "Heng."
Brother, are you back?"
Jia Heng nodded, with a polite yet embarrassed smile on his face.
At this moment, I saw Sister You walking quickly forward. With a hint of reproach in her tone, she asked, "Mother, why are you here?"
Mrs. You had a big smile on her face and said reproachfully: "Why can't I come? Isn't this chicken soup cooked for you three sisters? You guys can try it later."
As he said that, he turned to look at Youshi aside, and there seemed to be a look of surprise on that fragrant and jade-skinned face.
You's face, as beautiful as the clouds, was clearly flushed with shame and drunkenness, and she was clearly made a little uncomfortable by Mrs. You's funny words.
Mother, what were you talking about just now?
You's side of the room, just as she was talking, she turned to look at Second Sister You beside her, and said warmly: "Second sister, you must take good care of your pregnancy in the past few days, and don't mess around outside."
Second Sister You's face, which was as white as snow, was clearly blushing from shame. She lowered her eyes and said softly, "Hmm". The blushing red glow stretched all the way to her earlobes, making her look so pretty.
Youshi turned to look at Third Sister You, surprised, and asked: "Third Sister, what are you going to do?"
Sanjie You took her mother's arm and said, "Mom, please stop talking. The banquet will start in a moment. Sit down and enjoy the food first."
Seeing this, Mrs. You didn't say much else, and then she sat down. Just when she was about to open her mouth to say something, she was pulled down by Sister You beside her.
After finishing the meal, Jia Heng did not linger in the hall of Ningguo Mansion, but went to the Grand View Garden to see Daiyu.
Daiyu was in labor for a period of time, and she held her daughter in the house all day long.
Grand View Garden, Xiaoxiang Pavilion
While Jia Heng was talking, he came to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, which was shaded by bamboo trees. At this moment, the wind suddenly picked up, blowing the bamboo leaves and making a rustling sound.
In the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, there is a blazing fire and a warm atmosphere.
Daiyu was holding a pink and jade-carved baby girl in her arms. Two red clouds floated on both sides of her face as white as snow.
Starry eyes are as bright as the stars.
A smile lingered on Zicuckoo's fragrant and beautiful face, and she said warmly: "Girl, it's time for the little princess to change her diaper."
Daiyu said softly, "Yes", and in her shining eyes, she looked at her daughter with doting eyes, and whispered: "When she gets older, what should I let her learn?"
Zicuckoo chuckled and whispered: "Girl, we will talk about the future in the future, and we have to look at the interests of the little princess."
Daiyu's face, as white as snow, said "Hmm" with joy, and looked at her daughter in her arms. The more she looked at her, the more she liked her.
At this moment, a striking voice came from outside. There was a bit of surprise and excitement in the voice, saying: "Your Majesty, you are here."
Jia Heng smiled and said, "Xiren, I'm here to see Sister Lin and the little princess."
While speaking, Jia Heng quickly came to the side room and stared at Dai Yu and his youngest daughter Jia Ru, feeling a little happy and inexplicable in his heart.
Since the Crimson Pearl Immortal Herb gave birth to a child, perhaps because of the added maternal nature, the beauty Wen Ning's eyebrows have become a little more soft and charming.
"Brother Heng, you are here." Daiyu held the infant girl in her arms. Under her smoky brows, which were like silk willows, her starry eyes shone like rainbows, and she looked at Jia Heng with eyes as clear as water.
While speaking, Jia Heng turned to Daiyu and said, "Sister Lin, how are you these days?"
Under Daiyu's smoky eyebrows, her bright starry eyes shone like rainbows, and she said softly: "If I don't take care of my child every day, what can I do?"
Jia Heng smiled and said loudly: "Let me see Ru'er."
While talking, he came to a soft couch covered with cotton mattresses and sat down. He looked at Jia Ru, who was in Daiyu's arms, and said, "Ru'er, it's almost the full moon."
Daiyu sneered lightly and said: "As a father, you are asking strange questions. How old is Ru'er? You don't know?"
Jia Heng said softly: "It's not that I was busy with outside matters and forgot about it."
Daiyu snorted softly, her eyes shining like water.
Under Jia Heng's sharp eyebrows, his eyes paused slightly and he whispered: "In the future, my daughter must not imitate your narrow-minded temperament."
Daiyu's delicate and picturesque eyebrows were covered with a layer of shame and annoyance, and she said angrily: "What's wrong with me?"
Jia Heng said: "Okay, let's tighten the narrowing. I'll give my daughter a hug."
Daiyu was beautiful, and under her straight nose, she seemed to give a slight "hmm" and handed the daughter in her arms to Jia Heng.
Jia Heng was holding her milky-smelling daughter in her arms and looking at the soft and cute little Ru'er, she couldn't help but feel an inexplicable joy in her heart.
While speaking, Jia Heng leaned over to his daughter's cute face and kissed her gently. Then, looking at Xiao Ru'er's delicate and picturesque eyebrows, he called in a doting tone: "Ru'er."
"Yeah..." Jia Ru stretched out her two soft and white hands, babbling in her mouth, her bright eyes were as bright as water, and her eyes were full of waves.
Jia Heng smiled and said, "Daddy will teach you how to ride a big horse, okay?"
Jia Ru's eyes were as bright as stars, and she seemed to understand the meaning of her father's words.
Daiyu watched that scene quietly from the side, a hint of sweetness welling up in her eyes as bright as the stars.
On Jia Heng's side, he let Jia Ru ride on his neck and stretched out his hands to tease Jia Ru.
Jia Ru was laughing non-stop now, and the sides of her face as white as snow were as rosy as clouds.
Not far away, Xi Ren and Zijuan were also watching the interaction between Jia Heng and the little girl with smiles on their faces, feeling inexplicably happy.
Under her striking eyebrows, her charming eyes flickered, and she secretly asked, when will she be able to have a child?
If she could be pregnant with the prince's son and a half daughter, her life would be in vain.
…
…
Time flies, the years fly by, the light and shadow intersect, and before you know it, it has arrived in the winter moon of the third year of Qiande in the Han Dynasty.
In this short half year, Dahan's steam trains are still being improved and verified, and the railway tracks have been planned in advance and are ready to be laid across the country.
The coal mines from the land of Jinzhong are continuously transported to Shenjing and surrounding cities, delivering nutrients to the residents in the city.
In the third year of the Qiande period of the Han Dynasty, it was the winter moon, the mist was thick, the morning sun was slightly dew, and the dazzling sunlight shone on the earth. The glazed tiles of the palace reflected the colorful mottled sunlight.
There was a heavy snowfall in the Shenjing City, but there were snowflakes falling all over the place, covered in silver, and white. As far as the eye could see, the sky and the earth were all white.
Divine Capital City, Ningguo Mansion——
Jia Heng was sitting in the back of a spacious study room. In the southwest corner of the room, a stove embroidered with an animal head pattern was emitting steam, and the charcoal fire also made the room warm.
Chen Xiao was silent for a moment and asked: "King Meng and Marquis Shanhai have already stationed troops in Lhasa, and the Ministry of Revenue has sent some quilts and mattresses to Yushu."
Jia Heng nodded, with warm eyes, and whispered: "In the spring of next year, the Beijing camp will be able to return to the capital."
Gu Ruoqing was holding her infant baby Jia Ping at the side. She turned her eyes and stared at the young man in the python suit as he spoke. There seemed to be a hint of thinking in his clear and shining eyes.
Under Chen Xiao's delicate eyebrows with a hint of heroic spirit, his clear eyes were as bright as water, and he whispered: "Recently, the public opinion of Xinxue in the capital seems to be much better."
Jia Heng took the child in Chen Xiao's arms, a look of thoughtfulness appeared in her clear eyes, and asked, "What should I say?"
Chen Xiao picked up the blue and white porcelain tea cup, took a sip of tea soup, and said: "Mentioning the things created by the new learning will benefit the country and the people, and it will be of great benefit to the national economy and people's livelihood."
Jia Heng nodded and said in a low voice: "As time goes by, the common people will benefit more and more from the new learning, and the scholars in the world will also devote themselves to the new learning to learn the way of knowledge through studying things."
Under Chen Xiaocui's willow eyebrows, her soft and slightly beautiful eyes were as bright as water, and she said loudly: "But there are also some old scholars who denounce the things created by the new learning as strange tricks and ingenuity, which are difficult to achieve elegance." Hall."
Jia Heng waved his hand and said: "Don't pay attention to it for the time being. After the new learning becomes popular in the world, there will be great Confucian scholars who will debate the scriptures for it."
Although Chen Xiao didn't know why Jia Heng was so sure, he said warmly: "I just want to wait for the new learning to become popular in the world. I don't know how many years will it take."
Jia Heng was silent for a moment and said: "Changing the world's affairs and people's minds is not something that can be done in one day. It needs to be done subtly and silently."
Chen Xiaodao: "In recent years, more and more scholars have advocated new learning."
Jia Heng said: "This is an obvious thing. If the superiors are good, the subordinates must follow suit. There are many speculators who seek to advance to the higher ranks and follow the destiny of heaven."
Under Chen Xiao's eyebrows, his bright starry eyes flickered, and he asked: "What do you mean?"
Jia Heng nodded and said in a low voice: "Even if it is caused by the atmosphere of the upper and lower circles, it has also gathered people's hearts. If things go on like this, the officials and scholars will all say that it will be called a new learning."
In order to get promoted and make a fortune, these scholars would definitely talk about the new learning as their mantra, and even study it painstakingly and carry it forward.
The so-called "engineers rule the country" is nothing more than that.
…
…
The years pass by, and the seasons flow by.
The three years of Qiande in the Han Dynasty passed quietly while the girls under Jia Heng's knees were growing up. In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of spring in the fourth year of Qiande.
On this day, the spring scenery was bright and beautiful, and this day was the day when the army that went to Tibet returned to Beijing from Tibet.
At this moment, on both sides of the official road outside the west side of the capital, there are willows and green grass, the water of the Wei River flows around the city, the city walls stand majestic, the towers with cornices are exquisite and octagonal, and the wind chimes are gently swaying at the corners. It emits bursts of clear and crisp sounds.
On a straight and spacious official road, groups of cavalry with bright armor were holding flags. The flags were ringing, and gongs and drums were ringing not far away.
Cao Bianjiao, the Marquis of Shanhai, was riding on a maroon horse, holding a rein in his hand, staring at the sacred city of Jing in the distance, feeling a little excited in his heart.
Although he acted in cooperation with King Wei at first, he was inevitably criticized by others.
At this moment, Jia Heng was standing on the gate tower of the sacred city, surrounded by the guards of the Jinyi Palace. Surrounded by Qi Kun, the first assistant of the cabinet, Lin Ruhai, the second assistant of the cabinet, Zhao Yi, the cabinet minister, Liu Zheng, as well as military aircraft The ministers include King Shuirong of Beijing, Minister of War Shi Jie and other ministers.
"Woooo..."
The desolate and distant sound of the horn sounded throughout the world.
"Da da..."
As the sound of horse hoofbeats approached, the generals from the Beijing camp who were going to Tibet this time held a horse rein as thick as a little finger, walked closer, looked at Jia Heng, and said in unison: "I have seen King Wei before. Your Highness, King Wei is a thousand years old."
Under Jia Heng's thick eyebrows, his clear eyes glanced at the familiar faces. He stretched out his hands to support them and said, "Please excuse me."
Immediately, Jia Heng swallowed the food that reached his mouth again. In other words, if he has been in a high position for a long time, this kind of language habit will inevitably be revealed unnaturally.
"Thank you, King Wei." The generals of the Beijing camp, who were sitting on a maroon horse, the armor on their bodies were bright and shiny, and they all clasped their fists to say thank you.
Under his sword-shaped brows, Jia Heng glanced at the generals present and said loudly: "The soldiers of the expedition to Tibet, fighting in the snowfields and high mountains, have indeed done a great job. I have prepared wine and meat for you in the Hanyuan Hall, and I plan to give them to you."
Catch the wind and wash away the dust.”
Upon hearing this, all the generals from the Beijing camp below could not help but feel joyful expressions on their young and handsome faces.
As the trumpet sounded, a large number of generals from the Beijing camp marched toward the sacred city of Jing.
And on top of the towering city wall, Qi Kun, the chief minister of the cabinet, stood on the top of the city, and the haze in his heart undoubtedly became thicker.
After this battle, the power of King Wei's men became more and more powerful.
