The next day, the morning light dewed slightly, and the sun had already dawned earlier in summer, and the breeze came slowly. The tops of the sycamore trees in the southwest corner of the courtyard swayed with the wind, making a rustling sound. The place where the folded bridge was next to the lake was filled with lotus leaves.
Lotus, lotus dew rolls crystal clear on the stamens, the breeze blows, flutters and falls, creating circles of ripples on the lake surface.
The golden morning light that entered the wing room through the wooden window lattice carved with red birds jumped a few times and fell on the blanket-covered floor under the bed. Two pairs of embroidered shoes were placed casually beside the bamboo couch, and there were more people around.
Some red or white dresses, belts, and gauze were piled together in a messy manner.
After a long time, Zhen Qing made a "whoosh" sound, frowned her beautiful eyebrows, held up a snow-white lotus root arm, stood up, and then made a "hiss" sound, and her face was even brighter than before.
But there was a trace of shame and resentment, and it was clear that his whole body was aching.
Zhen Qing pursed her pink lips and couldn't help but curse a certain bastard in her heart. She raised her eyes and saw surprise in Chunfang Qiyun's flowing brows.
"Sister, you...are you awake?"
Zhen Qing looked at the charming young woman with fragrant shoulders and round shoulders with a guilty look.
But he saw his sister's lush hair spread over her shoulders, her bare hands holding her knees, Chunshan's dark eyebrows were frowning, and her clear eyes that used to look forward to the sky were looking down, and she didn't know what she was thinking, silently.
Speechless.
"Sister, hurry up and put on your clothes. I'll have someone prepare some hot water, and we'll take a bath together later. Let's go back." Zhen Jing looked at her stunned sister, her heart skipped a beat, and she picked up the clothes on the side and put them on Zhen Xue's arms.
Shoulders.
In fact, I didn't think about going back to Prince Chu's Mansion last night, but it was definitely not appropriate in the middle of the night, in the dead of night, with horses neighing and dogs barking, and too much noise. And she was dealing with business outside, so it was normal for her to stay outside, so it would not arouse suspicion.
.
Zhen Xue gently raised her eyes and glanced at Zhen Qing, but didn't want to pay attention. Looking at Zhen Xue who was in despair, Zhen Qing pursed her lips and sighed softly: "If you want to hate my sister, then just hate my sister. Isn't it my sister?"
Okay, it was my sister who was the one who fucked her. She was vicious and plotted against my sister. It’s all my sister’s fault.”
As she said this, the young woman was obviously a ruthless character. As she spoke, she fanned her face with her hands. As soon as she heard the sound of "papa", red marks appeared on Xue Ni's cheeks. She choked and said, "I'm sorry, sister..."
…”
"Sister, what are you doing?" Seeing this, Zhen Xue raised a pair of dewy eyes, took Zhen Qing's jade hand, and said urgently.
Seeing this, Zhen Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Her sister had been kind-hearted and tender since she was a child in the boudoir, so she knew that this cruel trick would work.
"Sister, it's my sister who is shameless and vicious, but she is also our two sisters. She originally wanted to plot against others, but now she is..." Zhen Qing blamed herself, her eyes gradually turned red, and she complained with blood and tears: "That one wants to play.
He is just a bad person. The way he treated my sister yesterday was not as good as a member. He was just a scare. Yesterday he was so TF and a bastard. He didn't treat my sister as a human being at all."
Zhen Qing said, maybe the grinding pain of the millstone brought about sad things, tears filled her eyelashes, and she began to cry. After a while, the pear blossoms started to rain.
This Princess Chu, who didn't even cry when Jia Heng was killed last night, was half-truthful and half-false at the moment, thinking about sad things, tears welling up in her eyes, and sobbing.
She is a noble prince and princess, but she was played with by that man like a slave last night, and her body was almost fucked all over. What sin did she commit?
Seeing her sister crying, Zhen Xue sighed softly and said in a low voice: "Sister, how stupid is she? How can she handle such a person with such despicable means?"
Such a young Toshihiko, who grew up as a commoner and became a minister of the military and state, even if he is manipulated for a moment, may first act weak and give in, and then turn his back and be ruthless. What can his sister do?
Zhen Qing burst into tears. She took Zhen Xue's hand and said, "Sister, it's my fault. Please don't be angry with me, okay? The bastard said yesterday that we should just treat it as a nightmare and wake up from it.
It’ll be fine. My sister still has Xinxin. She’s so young, so don’t let it get to you.”
Zhen Xue frowned, her eyes were distracted for a moment, and she sighed softly.
By now,
What else could she do?
Seeing that Zhen Xue was not as cold and lifeless as before, Zhen Qing breathed a sigh of relief, her jade face was covered with frost, and her phoenix eyes shone with cold light, and she said: "Sister, that bastard is very sympathetic to you, but he treats my sister as a human being.
You saw it yesterday, but you wouldn't do this to a brothel prostitute."
"Who asked my sister to plot against others? You can't blame others for retaliating." Zhen Xue frowned and couldn't help but said. She couldn't help but glance at her sister's round shape like a millstone.
But in my heart, I couldn't help but remember how that person showed no mercy to my sister yesterday, and I wished I could...
And every time the young man had a skin-to-skin contact with her, it was as if he was a different person. He kept coaxing her with nice words and asking questions that made her blush, but she obviously ignored him.
Well, what are you thinking about these things? It's just her sister who is leading her to think wildly.
The romantic relationship was cherished by both of them, but it was just a dream. In the dream, Wuhen, she had already wronged the prince once and could not wrong him again.
Hearing this, Zhen Qing said, "He did that to his sister...and his sister still speaks for him?"
On the contrary, she is no longer human at both ends.
"Ding is Ding, Mao is Mao." Zhen Xue sighed quietly, her eyes as soft as autumn water, and said softly: "Sister, don't talk about these things, it's all over, it's over."
Seeing this, Zhen Qing was a little relieved. It seemed that her sister no longer had the will to die, but she still needed to pay attention and explain. She said softly: "Sister, please put on your clothes. I will pack these away later."
Looking at the messy sheets under him, his eyes froze for a moment, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of shame in his heart.
The memory of yesterday's humiliation was too much to look back on, and she couldn't remember how many times she was tortured by that bastard?
Is that human being?
No wonder he captured enemy generals alive in Henan.
Zhen Xue sighed quietly and silently put on her skirt. Seeing the small clothes she took off yesterday, her cheeks felt embarrassed, and there was even a sense of resentment in her heart.
How could her sister plot against her like that?
The beauty suppressed the negative emotions in her heart and stood up. She just made the move, but because she was not strong enough, she sat down again and frowned under her beautiful eyebrows.
It's really unbecoming...
Zhen Qing on the other side is not much different, but after all she is physically stronger and wears embroidered shoes.
Zhen Xue gathered her strength and pushed herself up to the dressing mirror. She looked at the charming face in the bronze mirror that looked like a hibiscus stamen. The beauty under the willow leaves' slender eyebrows flowed silently. She couldn't help but gently stretched out her hand to caress her cheek.
Are you dreaming? Why can't you go away? Maybe you will forget it as time goes by.
Zhen Xue bit Yinglan's pink lips, sat down on the embroidered pier, picked up a comb and gently combed her hair. Her hairpin was messy last night, so she needed to tidy it up.
Zhen Qing also moved her round body like a millstone, her legs almost trembling, she came closer, sat down, and said softly: "Sister, let me comb your hair."
After Zhen Xue lost all hope yesterday and had the will to live or die, Zhen Qing was also a little panicked, and she wanted to compensate and please her sister.
Zhen Xue said softly: "Sister, there is no need to go to such trouble, I will be fine myself."
"When my sister was this young, I was the one who combed your hair and tied your braids." Zhen Qing looked at her pretty sister in the mirror and whispered, "It's been so many years in a flash."
As she said this, she was truly moved and shed tears again. Why was she thinking about attacking her sister? No, she was doing it for her sister's good.
Seeing her sister weeping again, Zhen Xuesu held the comb in her hand for a moment, her beautiful eyes were a bit hazy, and she said foolishly: "It has been so many years. At that time, my sister would give me whatever delicious food she had.
They also dress me up with good jewelry, saying they like to help me dress up..."
At the end of the story, I burst into tears.
Being betrayed by her sister, how could she not have resentment in her heart? Zhen Xue slightly closed her beautiful eyes that were filled with tears, and said softly: "But my sister has changed since she married in the capital. For the sake of a woman's reputation, she would do such a thing.
...This kind of human heart wants to be high even when it’s high.”
Why did you plot against Jia Zi before?
Yu was just planning for the King of Chu. She was already the princess, but she had to think about her mother's position in the world and resorted to such despicable methods.
She is her biological sister, how could he plot against her so deliberately? Harm her?
Zhen Qing's delicate body trembled slightly, she held Zhen Xue's shoulders, and whispered: "Sister, you also know the difficulties of my sister. What happened before was that my sister couldn't forgive you. Even if you hate your sister to the bone, your sister can't help you."
It can be said that my sister deserves it."
Zhen Xue sighed quietly and whispered, "Sister, I don't hate...sister, stop talking."
How could she not feel resentment in her heart? But things had come to this, what could she do even if she was resentful? Such was her fate.
Zhen Qing's eyes flickered and she said coldly, "Don't worry, sister, this matter must not be left alone."
Zhen Xue's beautiful face changed slightly when she heard this, she turned around Wan Ning's beautiful face, looked at Zhen Qing steadily, pursed her lips, and said softly: "Sister, please stop, you can't fight him."
Zhen Qing said quietly: "Don't worry, sister, I have my own way and it won't be self-defeating."
She must not forget it. She and her sister cannot be played by that bastard. That bastard must pay the price.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get, and the more I think about it, the worse I feel. Now my sister has a problem with her, and her front and back...well, she's become a human being both inside and outside.
Seeing Zhen Qing's resolute attitude and the sharp light in her eyes flashing under her beautiful eyebrows, Zhen Xue had complicated thoughts and was speechless for a moment.
After the two sisters combed their hair, Zhen Qing came out of the wing and called the maid to prepare hot water for a bath. This maid had been married to the Zhen family since she was a child. She followed the rules and went back to bed early yesterday morning. Although she was a little confused,
But he didn't pay much attention to the master's affairs. He probably took a bath because he drank too much wine.
Ningguo Mansion
Jia Heng quietly returned to Ningguo Mansion last night, calling the maid to prepare hot water to wash his body. He was too noisy yesterday.
Because it was so late at night, no one dared to call Qingwen, otherwise she would get a clue.
The next day, at dawn, Jia Heng changed into a plain robe at home, ate the breakfast prepared by his servants, and quietly turned over the records of the Battle of Liaodong in his study.
Jia Heng looked at the information on it, his eyes were lost in thought, and he couldn't calm down for a while.
All the obsession and nonsense last night were experiences he had never experienced before in this life.
"It is necessary to guard against others in the human heart. From now on, we must keep a hundred thoughts on this kind of wine. In Dream of Red Mansions, Prince Teng is delusional. If we keep a blind eye for a day, the red cherry blossoms will be in the earth.
Tengji is a very good medicine, so you have to be careful." Jia Heng thought.
It can be said that Zhen Qing used her own calculations to remind Jia Heng that it is easy to hide from an open gun but hard to guard against a hidden arrow.
"I'm afraid this Zhen Qing still won't give up, especially after suffering such a big loss. She even thinks about eating me alive." Jia Heng looked at her quietly, thinking.
Zhen Qing lost her innocence with him, so she might use this as a bargaining chip to continue to cling to him. Anyway, losing her virginity once is no different from losing her virginity three or five times. This kind of vicious woman can do anything.
"Zhen Qing is a prostitute after all. Although she has the means, it is nothing to worry about. Even Zhen Xue is implicated in the innocent after all." Jia Heng put down the tea cup and thought of all the tenderness of the porcelain doll that gritted its teeth and endured the pain last night, and was as soft as silkworms.
, Rou Ni, there is something strange in her heart, mainly because of her delicate and delicate posture, which makes people's mind sway, coupled with her special identity.
Strange Taoists often say that one's own children are other people's wives. The so-called person who has a mind of compassion is a Bodhisattva, a person who has a mind of fear is a gentleman, a person who has a mind of joy is a villain, and a person who has the mind to take effect is a beast.
"This is not the right path, don't force it. Zhen Xue is pitiful. First she was deceived into marriage, and then she was tricked by her sister." Jia Heng looked deeply and warned himself secretly. He looked towards the courtyard in the distance, and the golden morning light shone on his face.
On top of it, most of the gloom between his brows and eyes has dissipated.
As you gain a higher position, you will face more and more temptations, and you need to reflect on yourself from time to time so as not to lose yourself.
In recent days, perhaps due to the killings in the Central Plains War, the unreality between life and death made him a little indulgent.
Jia Heng took a deep breath, picked up the map on the bookshelf and started to read through it.
Later, he will go to Jinyi Mansion to collect information about Yangzhou
Information from salt merchants, preparation of ships going south, and in addition, they also need to communicate with Daiyu in advance about going south.
Jia Heng read the book for a while, and all the distracting thoughts disappeared from his mind.
"Sir, the Master of the Shi family is here. He met the old lady in the Rongqing Hall of Rongguo Mansion." At this moment, Qingwen twisted her waist, entered the study, and said softly.
Jia Heng put down the book and said softly: "I'll go over there right away." Shi Ding was going to Henan to take up his post. This time he came to see him with the intention of saying goodbye. He probably learned yesterday that he was attending a meeting, or that he was going home early to be with his family.
Tell the family members about it.
With that said, he left the study and headed to Rongguo Mansion. It was in the morning, and it was hot in the middle of summer. The cool morning breeze blew on his face. Jia Heng felt refreshed. Passing by the backyard, he could see a garden in the distance.
The majestic and beautiful pavilions have been topped out, and from time to time, grandmothers and maids pass by.
Seeing Jia Heng, he quickly saluted and called: "Uncle Heng." In the Rongqing Hall, Jia's mother sat on the soft couch at the bottom. On the embroidered piers on both sides, Feng Na, Chai Dai, Yuan Tan Yingchun, and Xiang Yun
Sitting on it, hairpin workers, wind rails, drinking, children's stockings, catering, each other lined up on top of the soldiers, so the skirts, coats and coats are beautiful.
Not long after they had had breakfast, they came to Jia Mu to say hello, and then stayed aside to chat and laugh with her, while Jia Mu was talking to Shi Ding and Shi Ding's wife who were visiting.
Jia Mu smiled and asked, "Have you decided on the governor's errands in Henan?" "The imperial edict from the cabinet and the official documents from the staff arrived this morning." Shi Ding had a smile on his face and looked relaxed.
Sister Feng smiled and said, "Old lady, my grandson's daughter-in-law heard that this governor is not a big deal. He has eight living quarters in the place, and every call is a promise."
At this time, Mrs. Shi Ding smiled and continued: "It is said that he is only a second-grade official. In terms of rank, he is still a little behind compared to the superior Marquis."
Shi Ding glared at his wife, looked at Jia Mu who was smiling kindly, and said: "Aunt, it's thanks to Brother Heng's recommendation this time. Originally, the court was going to choose civil servants, and Brother Heng stood up to everyone's objections.
, I can only go to Henan this time. At the beginning, I had Brother Heng take care of everything in the Military Aircraft Department."
Jia Mu smiled and said: "If we don't talk to each other, we are old relatives. It's right for Brother Heng to worry about it. But you should also talk to Brother Heng when you go outside. After all, he is just over there in Henan."
Come back and get familiar with things over there."
Shi Ding said with a smile: "My nephew means the same thing, so he came to visit Brother Heng, and he will leave for Henan tomorrow without telling my aunt. Without Brother Heng's warning, my heart is not settled."
He was sent to Henan as governor, and the left deputy capital censor Peng Ye was also sent to Henan. Will this powerful general of the Qi Party cause trouble in the local area and dig a hole for him? Or should he discuss it with Ziyu?
.
Mrs. Wang frowned, her face looked extremely indifferent, she clenched the Buddhist beads in her hands a little tighter, and her heart couldn't help but be cast into a thick layer of haze.
Uncle Heng didn't care about his own family, but he always helped the old lady's family. When her brother wanted to join the military base, Uncle Heng didn't say a word.
Aunt Xue was sitting next to her, with a smile on her fair face. She thought to herself, it's really amazing. Brother Heng can even recommend Wu Xun now.
I couldn't help but recall my son's words, this kind of momentum will become even more remarkable in the future.
Daiyu's eyes were full of light, and she listened to the elders' words attentively. It was obvious that she had already regarded Jia Heng's influence in the court as normal. She just glanced at Xiangyun, with joy in her bright eyes.
After thinking about this incident, the Shi family will not call Sister Yun back again, nor will they stay for a while and then go back for a while.
"You are serving as an official outside this time. After all, you are no better than at home. You should be more careful." As Shi Ding's aunt, Jia Mu still warned her in the tone of an elder.
Shi Ding smiled and said, "Don't worry, aunt. My nephew will definitely be doing a good job outside. Now everyone in the court is watching my nephew, so my nephew will be doing a good job."
At this moment, a nanny entered the hall with a smile and said, "Uncle Heng is here."
Shi Ding quickly stood up and said with a smile, "I'll go greet you."
In fact, I could have gone to Ningguo Mansion alone to pay my respects.
Visiting Jia Heng, but obviously not in front of Jia’s mother, an elder, thanking Jia Heng was more cordial and decent.
"My family doesn't need to be so polite," Jia Mu said with a smile.
Compared with the original work of Red Mansions, the Jia family does not make too many concessions after the Yuan concubine's marriage proposal. Shi Ding also sent out officials to the frontiers, Jia Zheng was promoted, and the Grand View Garden was built. Although it is not like flowers blooming brocade and fire cooking oil, it is
However, it has gained momentum. As Mrs. Jia of Rongguo, she understands this deeply.
While Jia Heng was speaking, he had already entered the Rongqing Hall. Facing everyone's gaze, he saw Shi Ding and cupped his hands and said, "Shibo."
"Brother Heng." Shi Ding put a smile on his face, took a look, saw Jia Heng wearing a python suit with embroidered regiments, and asked: "Brother Heng, are you going out at this time?"
"I was just going to go to the Yamen to have a look." Jia Heng sat down and explained. Shi Ding smiled and said, "In this way, it was really a coincidence that I almost missed it."
Mother Jia smiled and said, "You two are both busy people. If you want to get together, you probably have to ask the boy to come to say hello in advance, otherwise you will never meet."
