Chapter 367 Yuanchun: I don't know the body of Brother Heng

 After Jia Heng left, in the inner hall, the little princess took the arm of Princess Jinyang and said in a sweet voice: "Mother, how are we going to spend this small year?"

The eldest princess of Jinyang said softly: "Just live how you want to live."

Mentioning the past years, I couldn't help but feel a little lost. In the past, I kept an orphan girl in this huge princess's mansion, which was deserted and miserable. Although I have him this year, I still have to keep an orphan girl in the mansion.

It's just that... I have support and sustenance.

Keenly aware of the lost mood of the eldest princess of Jinyang, Li Chanyue pouted her pink lips and showed a hint of the cuteness and sweetness of a little girl in front of the eldest princess. She acted coquettishly and said: "Mother, I always feel like you are complaining.

I?"

The eldest princess of Jinyang turned her eyes to the little princess with peach cheeks and almond eyes, rubbed the air bangs in front of the girl's forehead, and said softly: "Silly child, why are you complaining about my mother? You are the flesh that fell from my mother's body.

, Mother, I have nothing to blame you for."

Li Chanyue said: "I heard from the mansion that Mr. Jia often comes to the mansion recently?"

Even though the eldest princess of Jinyang had issued a hush-hush order among the surrounding nuns and maids, the fact that Jia Heng often went to the eldest princess's house these days was a fact that could not be concealed.

"His sister is here to help take care of the business, so come and take a look." A flash of panic flashed in Princess Jinyang's beautiful eyes, but her face remained calm. She took Li Chanyue's little hand and said softly: "Chanyue."

"What's wrong, mother?" Li Chanyue asked.

The eldest princess of Jinyang took Li Chanyue's hand, came to the side and sat down, and said: "Let's talk about ourselves."

The two of them were sitting on the Arhat bed.

Li Chanyue's eyebrows were curved and she said softly: "Mother, what do you say?"

The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled and said: "I have been guarding such a big princess mansion for my mother for many years in a blink of an eye."

Li Chanyue was vaguely aware of what her mother was going to say, and felt a little uneasy, saying, "Mom, these years have not been easy."

The eldest princess of Jinyang sighed: "Our family has a lot of property and a lot of money. I don't know how many people in Shenjing City are thinking about our orphans and widows. If it weren't for your grandmother's protection, I don't know how to support you."

Come down."

Li Chanyue nodded and said softly: "Mother, I know, so I used to support those scholars just to gain a good reputation and to accumulate some love for the future."

Hearing this, the eldest princess of Jinyang rubbed Li Chanyue's head and said with a smile: "Chanyue has grown up, that's what my mother meant."

Then, he sighed and said: "But most of those people covet the wealth of the princess's house, and they even have dirty thoughts in their hearts. As time goes by, it becomes unprofitable. After they gain fame, they seldom interact with each other."

Li Chanyue was silent for a while, then said with a smile: "Mother, I think Mr. Jia is different from others. If mother likes him..."

This is a test.

It wasn't that she couldn't stand the boy, it was just that she couldn't accept that a boy who wasn't much older than herself could one day become her stepfather.

The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled and said: "It's not what you think. I am already an old lady. Why do I like him? Besides, he already has a family. If he hadn't already had a family, my mother would still want you to betrothed."

Where is he?"

At the end of the sentence, an imperceptible blush flashed across his cheeks. After all, he was telling lies in front of his daughter.

Not only did she like that little man, she fell in love with him to the core.

These past few months have been like a dream, meeting someone I like so much that I can’t like him again.

Li Chanyue snorted softly and said: "Mr. Jia is indeed a rare and extraordinary man in the world, with both civil and military skills and outstanding strategy. In fact, even if he gets married, my daughter will not mind."

He said deliberately, observing his mother's face again.

She previously said she liked Jia Heng, but her mother clearly didn't believe her.

The eldest princess of Jinyang looked as usual, shook her head and said: "You can't be a concubine for others."

Then he asked: "Last time, your cousin Xianning seemed to be interested in him?"

Li Chanyue breathed a sigh of relief and said calmly: "Cousin Xianning, it is impossible for me to be a concubine."

Princess Jinyang showed a thoughtful look on her face and murmured: "Yes, it's a pity."

This is the marriage dilemma of the royal daughter. Under normal circumstances, why can't someone be a concubine? Otherwise, it will harm the royal family's face.

Thinking about it carefully, her current situation is also very good. Although it is not as good as an ordinary couple, it is still... closer than a couple.

Thinking of the little man's dominance and strength on the bed, the eldest princess of Jinyang was a little dazed for a moment, and her body actually felt a little hot.

Li Chanyue said: "Sister Xianning urged me the day before yesterday that the second volume of Mr. Jia's Three Kingdoms Edition has not been released for a while. When will it be released?"

Princess Jinyang put back her chaotic thoughts and chuckled: "He is too busy at this time. If he comes over in a few days, you can ask him."

Li Chanyue's starry eyes flashed as she observed her mother's face, and all her suspicions disappeared.

It seems that nothing happened between the two of them these days.

On this side of the carriage, the carriage that Jia Heng and Yuan Chun were riding in made a rumble. The carriage drove through the street paved with bluestones. In the carriage, Jia Heng and Yuan Chun sat side by side. The soft fragrance of powder filled the carriage.

Time passed slowly in silence.

Because they were sitting close to each other, Yuan Chun's delicate body was slightly stiff, her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her breathing was somewhat rapid.

Jia Heng seemed to realize something. He turned to look at Yuan Chun and asked with concern: "Sister, are you okay these days?"

Yuan Chun lowered her beautiful eyes shyly and said softly, "Everything is fine, where is Brother Heng? Why haven't you seen Brother Heng come to the princess's residence in the past few days?"

In fact, I knew very well that it must be because the little princess came back from the palace, so I was worried about being bumped into by the little princess.

Thinking of this, and then looking at the boy opposite, my mood is a bit complicated.

Even if she is the eldest princess, she is not allowed to see anyone.

Facing a gaze that was as gentle as water, even slightly motherly, Jia Heng's face was as dark as water, but there was something strange in his heart, and he said warmly: "I've been busy these past two days, and I haven't passed it. It's hard to keep going all the time."

Annoying the eldest princess of Jinyang."

In fact, some people want to ask, "Sister, was it you who peeked outside the door that day?"

But I was worried that this would cause embarrassment to the two of them, so I didn't dare to ask the question rashly.

In fact, Yuanchun has been a female official in the palace for many years, so she is not a little girl who has never seen anything. This is why he told Princess Jinyang before that there was no need to hide Yuanchun too much.

Yuan Chunqing knew that this was the boy's cover-up, and did not expose it to avoid hurting the boy's self-esteem. She nodded her head, her eyes were bright and bright, her pink lips parted lightly, and she said with a pun: "Brother Heng.

It’s been a hard time.”

Not only do you have to deal with the official affairs of the three major government agencies on weekdays, but you also have to accompany the eldest princess at noon every day. I wonder if Hengdi's iron-clad body can endure it?

Thinking of an iron body...

Out of the corner of her bright eyes, she glanced at the young man and looked down. Somehow, she thought of the scene in her dream the day before, when she was bullied by this man. Her eyes were wandering and her heart was trembling.

In fact, Yuanchun had watched and read the secret history of the palace since he was a child in the palace, and his knowledge was extraordinary. Let's not talk about the dirty Tang Dynasty, but also said that brothers and sisters in the royal family of all dynasties had no shortage of unethical things, which was not uncommon.

Kuang Yuanchun and Jia Heng were only from the same clan and were far away from each other in Wufu, so they did not think twice about it, but felt psychological and moral rejection and disgust.

But Yuanchun will follow his self-requirements that are based on emotion and stop at etiquette.

According to the ethics and morals of later generations, the blood relationship between Baoyu and Chaidai is three generations of blood relations, which is inconsistent with the family, but there is no problem with the same clan in the five clothes.

However, the mainstream concept of the ancient world was that people with the same surname should not marry, and the pressure came more from the secular world.

Jia Heng thought for a while and said: "This afternoon, Keqing is going to invite a group of sisters to roast venison in Huifang Garden. My eldest sister will eat it without delay when she goes back."

In fact, he also asked people to cook hot pot on a charcoal stove and eat venison slices.

Yuanchun's crystal-clear jade face had a calm smile on her face. She looked at the young man opposite and said softly: "Brother Heng, then I'm really lucky."

She secretly thought that when she was free in the palace, she read the medical books of Shang Yao Bureau. According to the medical books, deer blood has the effect of aphrodisiac. How could she tactfully advise Hengdi to drink more?

For a while, I felt a little distressed.

The two of them had different thoughts and were speechless all the way.

But on Rongning Street, several carriages stopped outside the gate of Rongguo Mansion. Under the service of a group of servants and boys, several women got off the horses. The leader was a woman over forty years old and wearing a silk dress.

, with a rich face and fair complexion, accompanied by Wang Ziteng’s son Wang Yi’s wife and daughter-in-law.

"Mother Zhen, we're here." Wang Yi's wife said softly.

"Thank you for your work." Grandma Zhen said, her eyes lingering on the plaque "Edict to build Rongguo Mansion" hanging on Rongguo Mansion.

King Chu finally got hold of Chu Princess Zhen Qing, and then invited Nanny Zhen to come to her house. First, she greeted Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang in advance, while Wang Yi's wife came to make connections.

Wang Yi's daughter-in-law said politely: "Mom, there's no need to be polite. It's a good thing that the two families are getting closer."

While he was talking, he came close to the door, and a servant from the Rong Mansion announced inside.

Not long after, Zhou Rui's family walked out of the door with a smile and welcomed Wang Yi's wife and Nanny Zhen from Prince Chu's Mansion.

Rongqingtang

Jia Mu was chatting and laughing with Sister Feng, Li Wan, Yingchun, Tanchun, Baoyu, Daiyu, Xiangyun and others. Mrs. Wang was sitting beside her, and Aunt Xue and Baochai were sitting on the embroidered pier beside them.

Because tomorrow is the Little New Year, everyone will have free time except Sister Feng and Mrs. Wang who are sorting out their years and are a little busy.

Mother Jia was obviously in a good mood today, and Sister Feng was chatting and laughing with her. The laugh lines on her face never disappeared from the beginning to the end.

Jia Mu smiled and said: "I heard that Ke Qing invited a host to let you go over and eat venison together in the afternoon, both roasted and boiled?"

Sister Feng's melon seeds had a bright and moving smile on her face, and she said: "Old ancestors, that's not true. It's said to be cut into slices, roasted or boiled, but I don't know how delicious it is."

When Baoyu heard this, his full moon face showed joy and asked, "Who did Sister-in-law Heng invite?"

Sister Feng smiled and said, "Sisters, come over."

Sister Feng looked at Baoyu and said with a smile: "If you want to eat it, I will ask Dongfu to send you a piece of meat later, and let Xiren, Sheyue and the others bake it for you."

Jia Mu smiled and took over the conversation and said, "If Baoyu has some free time, he can go and have some fun."

Sister Feng smiled and said: "Old lady, there are many female relatives in Dongfu, and there are also two concubines of Brother Heng, maids and so on. Brother Bao is also old, so if you go there, it won't be very cheap."

It can be said that the concubines are Second Sister You and Third Sister You, and the maid in the same room is Qingwen.

Almost all interested people in the east and west mansions saw it. Even though Second Sister You and Third Sister You did not live in the house, they were undoubtedly Jia Heng's concubines. As for Qingwen, it was originally given to Jia Heng by Jia's mother.

When Jia Mu heard this, she was silent for a moment and sighed.

Mrs. Wang watched this scene quietly, her expression ugly.

Sister Feng quickly changed the subject and asked with a smile: "Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve. Do you think the old lady would like to invite a theater troupe to make it fun?"

Jia Mu said with a smile: "You are taking care of it, you need to be lively."

After Sister Feng's intentional change of atmosphere, the relaxed and pleasant atmosphere in Rongqing Hall was restored again.

While everyone in the Rongqing Hall was chatting and laughing, a woman from outside came in and said: "Old lady, Young Madam Wang Jiayi and Aunt Zhen from Prince Chu's Mansion have come to visit you."

As soon as these words came out, Jia Mu was stunned and asked: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, is she coming here at this time? Well, why is there still Aunt Zhen from Prince Chu's palace?"

Sister Feng said with a smile: "Old lady, you have forgotten that the eldest daughter of the Zhen family married the King of Chu a few years ago. Perhaps the New Year is approaching and I have come to say hello to you."

The Zhen family and the Jia family are family friends. In the original novel Red Mansions, the Zhen family even put the confiscated stolen money into the custody of the Jia family, which shows the deep friendship between the two families.

"Yes, look at my memory." Jia Mu smiled and said, "Feng girl, Yuanyang, you two go and greet me."

As Jia's mother, Mrs. Rong Guotai would only come out of the Rongqing Hall to greet Princess Chu when she arrived. She was just a nun and didn't really have much to say, leaving Sister Feng, the housekeeper's granddaughter-in-law, and Yuanyang to greet her.

, in line with the principle of reciprocity.

Sister Feng responded with a smile, and then went out with Yuanyang to meet Wang Yi's wife and the Zhen family's nuns.

Seeing the confusion and confusion on the faces of the little girls in the room, Jia Mu smiled and said: "You are young and don't know our relatives. The Zhen family is also an old relative of our family. There were originally five young girls, and two of them were married.

After arriving in the capital, three of them are now at home. The two daughters who came to the capital have become princesses, one married to the King of Chu and the other to the King of Beijing."

Mrs. Wang's eyes moved slightly. After hearing Jia Mu's words, she was filled with jealousy. With a slight smile on her fair face, she sighed: "This is really great wealth."

Jia Mu smiled and said: "Her family has an old feudal prince who has a deep friendship with the palace. There is also an old concubine in the palace who enjoys all the favors. When Taizu visited the south, the Zhen family picked up all the guests.

Four times.”

Tanchun listened to Jia Mu's words and looked at Daiyu.

Baochai, who was sitting at the bottom, his apricot eyes flashed, sighing secretly in his heart, the Zhen family and the Jia family are the first-class noble families, and other families are really incomparable.

While a few people were talking, they saw Sister Feng and Ping'er leading a grandma with a rich face and luxurious clothes in, followed by Wang Yi's wife.

"Greetings to the old lady." As soon as the grandma entered the Rongqing Hall, she said with a smile: "The old lady has always been fine."

Wang Yi's daughter-in-law also came forward to greet Mrs. Jia, and then Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue greeted her one by one.

Jia Mu smiled and said: "Okay, okay, why isn't your princess here? I haven't seen her in some days."

Aunt Zhen said: "My princess originally wanted to come here in person, but she is feeling a little sick, so she will be taking care of her at home. She will come over to pay her respects to Mrs. Tai during the New Year."

Princess Zhen Qing of Chu, although she agreed to King Chu's acceptance of Yuanchun as his concubine because of the overall plan of wooing the Jia family to seize the legitimate heir, it did not mean that she was really happy to see people in her husband's backyard, let alone come to help her husband find "

"little wife".

Jia Mu said, "We can invite a doctor."

Aunt Zhen said: "The imperial doctor from the Imperial Palace Hospital has examined her and found that there is nothing serious."

"That's good, that's good."

Several people exchanged pleasantries and took their seats one after another.
