Chapter 293 There is no competition

 Seeing that Jia Zheng agreed and Mrs. Wang acquiesced, Jia Heng pondered for a moment and said: "Mr. Zheng, Second Madam, I want to have a few words with eldest sister alone and ask some questions about the palace and our clan in recent years.

"

Mrs. Wang: “???”

Hearing this, Jia Zheng nodded and said, "As the patriarch, you should."

Yuan Chun said softly: "I have something to ask Brother Heng for advice."

Mrs. Wang said nothing else, glanced at Jia Heng, and followed Jia Zheng out of the wing.

For a while, Jia Heng and Yuan Chun were the only two people left in the wing.

Jia Heng looked at the twenty-nine-year-old girl opposite, their eyes met, and couldn't help but sigh softly and said: "Is this the first time that eldest sister has gone home in these years?"

Yuan Chun slightly shifted his gaze and looked at the screen behind Jia Heng in trance. For a moment, he opened his lips lightly and said faintly: "Since that day when I was sent to that unseen place, several years have passed. I have borrowed the light of my brother Heng.

It’s the first time I’ve come back, and in the blink of an eye, the sisters who used to babbling have grown up, and my parents with black hair and black hair can see a slight frost on their temples..."

These words were almost like "There is a loquat tree in the garden. My wife planted it when she died, and now it is as tall as a canopy." Jia Heng stared at it and couldn't help but take another look at the girl with square peaches and plums, and round pearls.

He remembered that Yuanchun was quite talented. He could not only play the piano but also compose poetry.

Yuan Chun said, raising a beautiful and gentle face, looking at Jia Heng, the stars and the moon seemed to be hidden in his bright eyes, shining brightly, and said in surprise, "There is also Heng brother, who has established a family and made me the successor of Ning Rong's second house.

Someone."

The young man in front of him was knighted as a first-class general for his meritorious service, and won the favor of the Holy Family. Even the queen concubine held a banquet to win over him, and the Jia clan regained its momentum.

Jia Heng said: "Although in the clan today, we dare not say that it was like when the Second Duke Ning Rong was there, but there is no need for my eldest sister to suffer in the deep palace for a slim chance."

Yuanchun nodded, his face showing joy, but after a moment, he felt a little disappointed.

Jia Heng thought for a while and said softly: "Is the eldest sister worried about her marriage after leaving the palace?"

He felt that Yuanchun had seen the world in the palace, and could no longer be like a young girl in her prime, who was ashamed to mention marriage, so she was so generous and simple, and gave him reassurance.

However, these soft words were like a pebble falling into the lake of the heart, causing ripples to appear in circles. Yuan Chun was suddenly told something central, and his rosy cheeks were a bit hot. His bright eyes looked at Jia angrily.

Heng glanced at him and said with shame and anger: "Brother Heng, you...how could you..."

But then I thought about it, the boy opposite was the leader of the clan and a married man. Although he was shy about talking about marriage, there was nothing wrong with it.

Jia Heng's face was silent, Qingyue's voice was as calm as water, and he said: "The eldest sister entered the palace because of my Jia clan, and the matter of marriage is no longer the eldest sister's business alone. Besides, I have always thought that my sister is generous, even if I mention this,

It should be nothing."

Perhaps it was Jia Heng's calm voice that diluted the shyness of her daughter's family a lot.

Yuan Chun looked at the young man with a clear face across from him, sighed softly, and said: "It's nothing, she is not a little girl after all."

After a moment of silence, he seemed to have lost a smile and continued: "Like me, my youth is gone and I am old and yellow..."

"big sister……"

Jia Heng had a strange look on his face and quickly interrupted. He raised his eyes to look at the self-pitying girl opposite and said, "Big sister is dignified and quiet. She lives in an IKEA home. She is just in her youth. There is no need to belittle yourself."

According to the original work, Yuanchun was awarded the title of Virtuous Concubine, which is remarkable. Besides, she was only over twenty-nine years old, which is the age of youth.

However, Yuanchun is good at playing the piano. Generally speaking, people who understand art also have sentimental emotions.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have said, “Separation of flesh and blood is ultimately meaningless.”

Yuan Chun glanced at Jia Heng and pursed his lips.

She didn't even know why, so why did she mention her marriage to this young man?

But she didn't know whether it was the other party's friendly and natural attitude or the fact that the other party was the leader of the Jia clan, but she didn't feel too embarrassed.

Jia Heng pondered for a moment and said: "Actually, when the queen's son opens a palace, he may be given female officials, but most of them will be concubines."

There are some things that require Yuanchun to be vaccinated in advance.

If after leaving the palace, some time passes, Mrs. Wang says that even being a concubine to the feudal king is not a path to wealth, Yuanchun will have some complaints again.

When Yuan Chun heard this, he frowned and said softly: "Brother Heng, are you talking about the King of Wei?"

For a moment, a young man with a sinister face appeared in his mind.

Jia Heng looked solemn and said: "The King of Wei will open his palace next year, but eldest sister, my Jia family does not intend to get involved in the fight for the right to inherit the throne again. I hope eldest sister will understand. Besides, I have been in contact with the two kings of Wei and Liang. Guan Er

The king's temperament is not a good match."

Yuan Chun had been in the palace for a long time, so he should know the pros and cons of seizing the direct descendants. As for his evaluation of the two kings of Wei and Liang, he could not comment more.

Yuanchun's heart was slightly shaken, as he read the words "not a good match", he vaguely understood something.

As a daughter of the Jia clan, she naturally puts her clan first, and as the helmsman, if Jia Heng is not optimistic about the two kings of Wei and Liang, she can't let it go to her head.

Yuan Chun said softly: "There is great danger in seizing the legitimate son. However, Brother Heng is overly worried. I am the empress and a female official, so I know the empress's thoughts. She and the two kings of Wei and Liang chose a concubine to suit the emperor's wishes, so they would not join the martial arts.

Chosen with honor."

Emperor Chongping was so jealous that he had only secured his position. How could he tolerate an adult prince colluding with Wu Xun again? Empress Song was always good at figuring out her superiors' intentions and would not commit such taboos.

Jia Heng nodded slightly and said: "The night is long and there are many dreams. It would be better for my eldest sister to leave the palace as soon as possible."

Yuanchun: "..."

The beautiful lady's bright eyes twinkled. I wonder if it was her imagination, but why was the boy opposite her more interested in leaving the palace than she was?

After thinking about it, it may be... to protect oneself wisely.

"At his age, he is already a first-class general with a heavy army. If you want to have a good death, you need to be careful to avoid disaster."

Yuan Chun thought about it and felt that he had some idea of ​​Jia Heng's thoughts.

The two chatted about family matters for a while, and Jia Heng said, "Sister, let's do this for now. I'll try my best tomorrow."

After negotiating with Yuan Chun about leaving the palace, Jia Heng returned to Rongqing Hall without much delay. The remaining time was left for Yuan Chun to talk to his parents.

Rongqing Hall

Jia Heng came in again, met the eyes of Jia Mu, Feng Wan, Aunt Xue, Baochai, Xiangyun, Tanchun, Yingchun, Xichun and Daiyu, nodded and sat down.

Jia Mu asked anxiously: "Have we agreed? What exactly are you talking about?"

Jia Heng said: "Eldest sister has been in the palace for these years, but there is no result. Please ask for grace and return home."

He felt that Jia Mu should be able to get rid of this problem. Besides, after so many years, there has been no good news, and the eagerness to climb up to the dragon and the phoenix should be gone.

In fact, if Jia Heng hadn't asked Dai Quan to use his strength in the palace, Xia Shouzhong would have arranged Yuan Chun in the palace of Queen Song, and still gave Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang some slim hope.

However, in the end, I didn’t hear any news, and it was just an empty joy after all.

Jia Mu sighed and said: "As the leader of the clan, I know that you have always been angry. As for the eldest girl, she has suffered so much over the years. It is her blessing to be able to leave the palace now, but...

We must find a good home for her."

Jia Heng frowned and muttered: "Marriage is a big deal, and we need to slowly find someone with both character and talent. But it's too early to say this now. Even if you leave the palace, you can still reunite with your parents and sisters for two years.

It’s not too late to leave the cabinet, and with my family’s status, whether I’m a scholar in the Hanlin Academy or a lieutenant general in the army, I can only be climbed up by others.”

Jia Mu: "..."

Aunt Xue said with a smile: "Brother Heng is right. In terms of family background, only others can compare with her. In terms of appearance, she is like a fairy. I see that the eldest girl has been away from home for so long, so she needs to have a good reunion."

Jia Mu smiled and said, "I'm not young anymore. Anyway, it's better to settle the marriage as soon as possible."

Jia Heng said: "As the saying goes, men are afraid of getting into the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. They must choose carefully."

In fact, he couldn't guarantee what kind of family Yuanchun promised.

Who can guarantee this?

There are almost no wealthy and powerful families in the capital who are of suitable age, and they are from a small family, so Mrs. Wang probably would not like them either.

The main reason is that she is not young anymore, she is only 29 years old, and she is already 20 years old. She is not an old girl, but she has missed the best age for marriage, so she can only choose the remaining ones.

Secondly, I looked around at all the princes and princes in the capital, but no one caught his eye.

In fact, not only Yuanchun, Ru Baochai is also thirteen this year, and will be engaged in two years. After the election fails, he will have to look for someone in advance, and there is talk of a good match. It is estimated that after this year, it will be

Released?

Jia Heng thought about this and turned to look at Baochai. He saw a girl with a pear-like face and a plump figure, tilting her head slightly to one side, listening attentively to the conversation between him and Jia Mu.

This sudden turn of the head caused Baochai's apricot eyes to move slightly, and a hint of panic appeared. Combined with the young man's words "A girl is afraid of marrying the wrong man", her heart skipped a beat.

Brother Heng, what does this mean?

Hearing this, Jia Mu breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Brother Heng, according to the wishes of the clan leader, your eldest sister has left the palace. In the future, you need to help pay attention to her marriage, family background and so on.

No matter what, your character and future must always be good."

In Jia Mu's impression, those young children of the Jia family who were the same age as Yuanchun either got married early or were not suitable. Jia Mu also felt numb for a while, so she asked Jia Heng, a helper who worked outside, to pay attention.

It's also reasonable.

Jia Heng said: "I will pay special attention to this matter."

Aunt Xue said with a smile: "Brother Heng, who works as an official and a butcher outside, knows more capable princes and grandchildren, and has a wider exposure than us women who never leave the house.

"

Jia Mu smiled and said, "Brother Heng never makes any mistakes when doing things."

Everyone agreed and laughed.

Jia Heng's face was indifferent, he picked up the tea cup, lowered his head and took a sip, but did not answer anything.

Seeing that Jia Heng's face was silent, as if he didn't want to talk in depth, Sister Feng changed the subject aside and mentioned to Jia's mother that Prince Tengguo would give birth to a child tomorrow, and everyone started talking and laughing again.

Jia Heng sat here for a while. As dusk grew darker, Mrs. Wang, Yuan Chun, and Jia Zheng also entered the Rongqing Hall again to say goodbye to Jia's mother.

Yuan Chun came closer, with a look of reluctance on his face, bowed greatly, and said softly: "Old ancestor, it's getting late, so I should go back."

Jia Mu stepped forward to support Yuan Chun, her eye circles were a little red again, and asked: "Big girl, take care of yourself in the palace."

On this side, Li Wan, Yingchun, Xichun, Tanchun, Chaidai and Baoyu all came forward to persuade and talk.

Grandparents, grandchildren, and sisters are all reluctant to part with her.

Baoyu called affectionately: "Sister."

Yuanchun turned to look at Baoyu, his bright eyes filled with tears, and whispered softly: "Baoyu should study hard in the future, and always ask your brother Heng for advice when encountering problems."

Baoyu responded obediently.

"Ancestors and mothers, there is no need to send each other off and add to the sadness." Yuan Chun said softly, then turned to look at Jia Heng aside, with a pair of crystal clear eyes filled with hope, and said: "Brother Heng, I'm back to the palace.

"

Jia Heng said: "I'm going to see my eldest sister off."

Jia Mu nodded, smiled and said, "Go ahead and send Yuanyang off for me."

At this moment, Xiangyun and Tanchun also asked to see off the eldest sister. Baochai's apricot eyes moved slightly and told Aunt Xue on the side to go see off the eldest sister.

In the end, Tanchun also took Daiyu with him, and Xichun also got up with the maid, not only to see each other off, but also to return to Dongfu.

Jia Mu all agreed.

Because the carriage carrying Yuanchun's oral message was parked in Dongfu, he had no choice but to go to Dongfu first and send Yuanchun to the carriage before Jia Heng turned around and returned.

Returning to the study, Jia Heng looked at Xiangyun, Tanchun, Xichun, Daiyu, and Baochai, and ordered Qingwen to serve fragrant tea. The study was as warm as spring, but not cold at all.

Tanchun said softly: "If it weren't for my brother, I don't know how long my sister would be able to survive. In the palace, I have to serve those noble people. I don't dare to say or take a wrong step. I haven't seen my relatives for many years. I don't know what life has been like these years."

Came here."

When Daiyu and Xichun heard this, they both had a look of concern on their faces.

Baochai pursed her lips and said nothing. If it were her, she didn't know if she could endure such loneliness and loneliness.

Once you enter the palace, will you definitely become a concubine?

Xiangyun Pingguo's round face was unusually serious. He tilted his head and said crisply: "But how come there are so many women in the world who want to go to such a shameful place?"

Baochai pursed her lips, her apricot eyes narrowed, and she took a deep look at Xiangyun, but finally landed on the face of the young man opposite.

Jia Heng smiled, looked at the cute and cute Xiang Yun with admiration, and said: "Sister Yun asked me well, women have always regarded their husbands as the most important thing. In terms of wealth in the world, there is nothing better than that inside the red eaves and red walls."

Where is honor? People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places. This is the human heart, and it is blameless."

If among the people in front of me, the most ambitious one should be Baochai. After all, as a woman, she wrote the poem "The good wind, by its power, sends me to the blue clouds."

Therefore, what Xiangyun said may not be intentional on the part of the speaker, but intentional on the part of the listener.

Although Baochai is not a petty person, it is still inappropriate.

Xiangyun pouted and said in a playful voice: "It is said in the drama that there are intrigues and intrigues in that place, and people's hearts are as evil as ghosts. Thinking about these every day will make you exhausted. Even if it is rich and glorious, it is not interesting at all. It is better to have a simple meal."

, the idle clouds and wild cranes are gone.”

Baochai's bright eyes flashed under her beautiful eyebrows. The hand that picked up the tea cup trembled slightly, brought it to her lips, and took a sip.

Tan Chun smiled and joked: "Sister Yun is a calm person, with the ambition and virtues of Boyi and Shuqi in ancient times."

Jia Heng smiled and said: "How virtuous, Yun Ye, a basket of food and a ladle of drink, in a back alley, people can't bear their worries, Yun does not change their happiness."

These words were of course made fun of Xiangyun, but Xiangyun's remarks about wandering clouds and wild cranes reminded me of a poem "The shadow of a crane crossing a cold pond".

When Xiangyun heard Jia Heng's words, Begonia's cheeks glowed like clouds, and he said shyly: "Brother Heng also teased me, how can I compare with those sages?"

Daiyu Yanyan chuckled and said: "Why can't we compare? Sister Yun already has the word "yun"."

Facing Jia Heng's smiling gaze, Daiyu's heart trembled slightly, with a smile on her face, dimples appeared, her starry eyes looked up, and with a bit of playfulness, she said softly: "Rice is not enough."

Drinking water, bending one's arms and resting one's head on it, one can enjoy it as well. Unjust wealth and honor are like floating clouds to me. Isn't there a word for cloud here?"

Baochai's apricot eyes flashed, and he chuckled: "Zhen'er is a quick thinker, and there really is a word for cloud."

Jia Heng smiled and said: "Whether it's a wandering cloud or a wild crane, or a Kunpeng flying like a sway, everyone has his own ambitions and his own way of living. As long as he doesn't harm the laws of nature and follows the right path, there is no superiority or inferiority."

When Baochai heard this, he stared at it, his eyes gradually became complicated.

------Digression-----

Secondly, don’t wait. I need to sort out my thoughts. My thoughts are a bit stuck.
