Chapter 703 Daiyu: The enemy cannot move, I cannot move

The next day

In the early morning, the first ray of morning light fell through the window and fell into the house. Jia Heng stood up and changed into a set of clothes. He turned his eyes and looked at Yuanyang cutting the sheets with scissors, and felt a little weird in his heart.

"Master, let's go first." Yuanyang's brows and eyes were full of charm, and he couldn't help but look at Jia Heng shyly and said in a low voice.

Jia Heng nodded, then stood up and left the room.

As soon as he stepped out of the corridor, he saw a young girl coming out of the wing across the courtyard and said softly: "Sir, the water for washing your face is ready."

Jia Heng came closer, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Qingwen coming out without makeup. Her face, which was usually as white as snow, was tense, and she had some guesses in her heart.

The little girl's thoughts are all written on her face, and it's not difficult to detect at all.

Jia Heng washed his face, took the towel from Qingwen's hand, looked at the sad girl, and whispered: "Qingwen, what's wrong?"

Qingwen snorted softly and said in a cold tone: "Master, would you like to take a bath first and go see Miss Lin later?"

Jia Heng looked at Qingwen, thought for a moment, and said, "Let's take a bath later."

Qingwen probably has an opinion. If you talk about princess or princess, there is no possibility of comparison. But Yuanyang is different. Yuanyang is also a maid, but now she has taken the lead. Qingwen can't help but murmur in her heart.

Jia Heng looked at Qingwen, who was lowering her head to change clothes, and whispered: "Yesterday, Yuanyang said he was still in the old lady's room and would not come to the house."

Qingwen was stunned for a moment and said, "Why is she thinking like this?"

Jia Heng said: "Yeah, I'm also very confused, maybe people don't like your young master."

Qingwen pursed her lips and was hugged by Jia Heng. She said angrily, "That's because he doesn't know how good the uncle is."

Jia Heng said warmly: "Qingwen knows?"

Qingwen snorted softly and said: "Uncle."

After bathing and changing clothes with Qingwen and talking for a while, Jia Heng did not stop at Kaifeng Mansion. He boarded the boat with the guards of Jinyi Mansion and sailed away towards the eastern sky.

The bright morning sun shines on the green mountains on both sides of the bank, and the red sun looms between the mountains and rivers. The waves are sparkling and the rivers are surging.

Jia Heng stepped into the cabin on the second floor. Facing the girl's gaze, he sat down and said, "Sister Lin, how was your rest last night?"

Daiyu looked at the young man across from her, feeling suddenly very shy. She lowered her head, her starry eyes filled with deep thoughts, and said softly: "Brother Heng, it's quite good."

Jia Heng didn't say anything. He picked up a book from the table and started reading.

This has been the usual way the two get along during this period of time.

When he wasn't telling stories, Jia Heng was behind the desk, either reading a book, flipping through the news collected from Jinyi Mansion along the way, or picking up the map of the north and flipping through it gently.

Daiyu held the handkerchief and sat down quietly. She picked up the book in her hand, but she still had some thoughts on the young man.

Jia Heng took the tea cup delivered by Qingwen and took a sip. Suddenly he felt something. He turned to look at Daiyu, but he happened to meet a pair of bright eyes that were like a bright star. Immediately, he lowered his head in panic.

Jia Heng put down the teacup and walked up to Daiyu. He saw the girl looking down at a book. Her eyelashes were curled under her bangs, and her face was slightly flushed.

"What is sister doing?" Jia Heng came to the side and asked.

"Lin copybook." Daiyu lowered her eyebrows and said softly.

Jia Heng chuckled and said in a low voice: "Then let me take a look."

I don’t know how to talk to Daiyu about the impact of puppy love on study, but I’m afraid that after talking and going back and forth a few times, he would just look at the little sheep.

Many things in life are like this, just like war, it starts well but ends poorly. Daiyu is actually not easy to provoke.

I can't help but vomit a few liters of blood and burn my manuscripts to end my infatuation, and Lin Ruhai turned out to be an important part of his political puzzle.

But Daiyu may end up depressed if she finds someone she has chosen and doesn't get a response.

Daiyu handed the written calligraphy to Jia Heng, her eyebrows lowered, and she said softly: "This is Zhao Mengfu's calligraphy. When you are free and bored, it is not as good as the third sister's calligraphy."

Jia Heng looked at the handwriting on it and said softly: "This handwriting is elegant and elegant, which shows quite a lot of skill."

I remember that in the original work, Daiyu, who was wearing a red cloak, looked at the words "Jiang Yunxuan" written by Baoyu, and a dimple appeared on her right cheek, saying, "The writing is good, how come it is so good?"

There was another winter when snowflakes were flying. Daiyu was wearing a red cloak and had wine with Baoyu from Baochai's house. She also tied a bamboo hat to Baoyu. That moment was very much like love.

Snowflakes are falling, the north wind is blowing...

Jia Heng put down the copybook next to him, raised his eyes to look at Daiyu, and asked, "Sister, are you feeling bored?"

Daiyu was in a state of panic. When she heard this, she raised her watery clear eyes and said softly: "Yes, it took a lot of effort to take the boat all the way."

Jia Heng whispered: "When you get to Kaifeng, stay one more day and walk around with your sister."

Xiren and other maids, for Daiyu, they can talk, but they can't talk to relieve boredom in a pleasant conversation, because it is difficult to resonate with her on a spiritual level.

Daiyu nodded and glanced secretly at the young man opposite her. She clearly knew what was on her mind, but she still acted as if nothing had happened.

Jia Heng thought for a while and said, "Sister Lin, let's play a game of chess."

"Yes." Daiyu responded gently and lowered her eyelids. Anyway, the enemy couldn't move, so I couldn't move.

At this time, Qingwen took out a chess game, and the two of them arranged their carriages and horses and played chess.

Daiyu said softly: "There was trouble here in Henan earlier. When I came here to see it, the bustle and bustle continued unabated. Just now I saw the people sending Brother Heng off."

Daiyu, who can write about the prosperous age when there was no famine and no need to be busy with farming and weaving, obviously knew more than just romance.

Jia Heng smiled and said: "I don't know if they are the common people who were found by the officials of Henan Prefecture. The Umbrellas and Precious Boots are all used to be faked by local officials. I actually want to see the sweet potato." The promotion situation in Henan, but time is short, we can only wait until Kaifeng Prefecture to see."

"Brother Heng is young and young, how do you know so much?" Daiyu asked softly with her eyebrows arched as she listened.

Jia Heng said softly: "In the past, I read more messy books in the mansion. The more I read, the more I know. I think Sister Lin seems to like reading."

Daiyu looked at the young man opposite and said softly: "In my spare time, I also read through the classics and history collections. I have dabbled in them all, and they are a bit complicated."

The girl said softly, picked up a "horse" chess piece in her delicate hands, and jumped to the edge of the river.

The two of them were playing chess with no intention of winning or losing, but gradually it became a reason to sit together and chat.

Jia Heng said: "When we arrive in Kaifeng, we will stay for two days. Then we will take my sister around Kaifeng Mansion."

"Yes." Daiyu responded softly under her beautiful eyebrows. Seeing that the boy opposite didn't say anything, she felt some inexplicable disappointment in her heart.

Time flies by like water. Unknowingly, several days have passed. Jia Heng and his party have arrived in Kaifeng Mansion by boat. Shi Ding, the Marquis of Zhongjing who serves as the governor of Henan, led the officials of the two divisions, and the stars are over the moon.

Generally, Jia Heng is welcomed into the governor's Yamen, and both parties chat with each other during the banquet, and then disperse at noon.

Shi Ding and Jia Heng came to the study to talk, and they sat together and talked secretly.

"Shibo, how about taking up your post in Henan?" Jia Heng looked at Shi Ding, who was wearing a scarlet robe and black hat, and asked.

Shi Ding twisted his beard with his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, the Central Plains has outstanding people and simple folk customs, so it is not difficult to manage. It is thanks to Brother Heng that you have left a good foundation in Henan."

It really left a good foundation, and all the lawless and rebellious people were wiped out.

Jia Heng nodded and said, "I wonder how Shibo's promotion of the sweet potatoes we promoted earlier went?"

Shi Ding said: "According to Brother Heng's wishes, Henan Prefecture, Kaifeng Prefecture, Nanyang Prefecture, some poor harvest places, riverbanks and other places have been planted. But are these sweet potatoes really so high-yielding?"

"I can't guarantee a yield of tens of shi per mu, but it shouldn't be a problem if the yield is more than 10 shi per mu." Jia Heng said softly.

"If this is really the case, it would be a great achievement." Shi Ding heard this and said with emotion: "At that time, I saw who else was talking about Sweet Potato Uncle."

"Uncle Sweet Potato?" Jia Heng asked with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Shi Ding looked quite uncomfortable and said: "Because of the recent encouragement to teach students to grow sweet potatoes and the governor's Yamen's forced promotion, the chief envoy has started to spread some rumors. Perhaps some petty officials had complained about Zi Yu and took the opportunity to slander Zi Yu.

Don't worry, Yu, I'm ready to punish the relevant people."

As the sky is high and the emperor is far away, even the emperor cannot avoid the complaints and slander of the officials below.

When Jia Heng was the governor of Henan, he treated his subordinates harshly, and some officials secretly resented it. However, when Jia Heng was in Henan, the chilling effect and the hope of popular support naturally made them afraid to make any noise.

But Jia Heng returned to the capital, and Shi Ding, the Marquis of Zhongjing, came. Although Shi Ding was well versed in the ways of the world and his methods were relatively flexible, the core of it was almost the same as Jia Heng in terms of family relations and ideas of caring for the people.

Jia Heng said indifferently: "If we can really promote planting, there will be countless living people. Even if we call Uncle Fanshu, it won't matter. As long as we don't spread rumors to cause trouble and use dirty words, Shibo will not have to worry about their private complaints. Uncle Fanshu will do it."

Sweet potato uncle is here."

Food is the most important thing for the people. When the sweet potatoes are harvested, the more sweet potato barkers are called now, the more the people will be able to use them.

And people with insight will also see it. This is not his initiative to win over the people. If Fanshu is linked to him in the Han Dynasty, it can be said that he will have potential popularity. And all this is because of

Others' slander comes naturally and naturally, without any trace of artificial engraving.

Shi Ding nodded and said: "Since Ziyu doesn't care, then I don't need to go to war."

He had just arrived, and he was a martial artist. He did not have the prestige and backing of the young man in front of him. If he really wanted to severely punish all the officials for his words, it would not be conducive to supervising the place.

Jia Heng stopped mentioning the matter and asked instead, "How is it going to work with Shibo and Peng Ye?"

Peng Ye, a general of the Qi Party and the left deputy censor, is now serving as the chief envoy of the Henan feudal lord.

Shi Ding shook his head, his eyes were a bit gloomy, and he said: "After the envoy Peng came to Kaifeng, he was at peace. I didn't see him doing anything. He also cooperated closely with the governor's Yamen's writings, just for fear of biting someone.

The dog doesn’t bark.”

In front of Jia Heng, Shi Ding naturally had nothing nice to say about his party members. Shi Ding was the governor of Henan, but when he thought about having such a poisonous snake staring at him, he felt somewhat guilty before doing anything.

Shi Ding said, looked at Jia Heng, and asked curiously: "Where is Ziyu? Why did you come to Henan this time?"

"I am on an errand and passing through Henan." Jia Heng chuckled and did not elaborate.

Shi Ding's eyes narrowed, and he had some guesses in his mind. After all, he had also stayed at a military aircraft.

After that, Jia Heng did not talk about official matters, but talked to Shi Ding about the current situation of his relatives in the capital. Then, he gave Shi Ding the letter that the historian in the capital asked him to carry, and then left the governor's office and came to the manor he had purchased earlier.

within.

As he entered the hall, Liu Jixian came towards him, cupped his hands and said: "Captain, General Qu has been waiting in the flower hall for a long time."

Jia Heng nodded and entered the hall, where he saw Qu Guang, the commander of the Henan capital, dressed in the robes of a second-grade military attaché, with a burly figure and a rough face.

"I will finally meet the Commander-in-Chief," Qu Guang said, cupping his fists and saluting Jia Heng.

Jia Heng nodded, looked at Qu Guang, held Qu Guang's arm with both hands, and said: "My brother, there is no need to be polite."

Many generals in Henan Dusi are now his subordinates. With the support of local military generals, this military minister can be as secure as a rock and as a finger on the arm.

Jia Heng asked: "The Henan Dusi reported to the Military Aircraft Department not long ago that all the newly recruited soldiers have been registered in full. I wonder how the military training is going?"

"Returning to Commander-in-Chief, this is the troop quota of the various guards, the list of generals and commanders, and the list of supplies and supplies. I would like Commander-in-Chief to take a look at it." Qu Guang said softly and took a finger-thick piece of paper from the small table beside him.

In fact, even if he does not have an old friend, Jia Heng, as the Minister of Military and Aircraft, has the authority to see this.

Jia Heng looked through the names and found that Henan, as the heart of the four provinces of Shanhe and Shanhe, has a flat terrain and a plain in the direction. It has an abundant supply of troops. Due to the military structure, there are ten guards under its jurisdiction, and the number of troops is 50,000 or 60,000. Although it suffered from rebellion, the number of troops was replenished.

Get up quickly.

Jia Heng closed his troops and said in a low voice: "We are going to Yangzhou. The Yangzhou salt merchants are raising dead soldiers. There may be some dangers hidden. I plan to transfer 5,000 elite cavalry from Henan Dusi in the name of supporting the river workers.

Take a boat to Huai'an Prefecture in case of any eventuality."

Qu Guang looked solemn and asked: "Commander Jie, are five thousand soldiers enough? I have heard that Yangzhou salt merchants and private salt dealers often have collusion. They are numerous and powerful, and they have to be informed by the government."

Jia Heng waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, they are just a bunch of people. Even if there is disharmony, I have received a secret order from the Holy One and can temporarily dispatch troops and horses from the camp in the north and south of the Yangtze River, as well as guards in Jinyi Mansion, to go to the south to support them."

He had deliberately not spoken of the emperor's edict just now, just to test Qu Guang. He had indeed obtained the emperor's secret edict. When necessary, he could use the emperor's sword to mobilize the soldiers and suppress the situation.

Qu Guang said in a deep voice: "If Commander Jieh has any dispatches, the general will personally lead the cavalry and ride south to help."

"Don't be busy now. When I arrive at Huai'an Prefecture, the Henan Dusi will mobilize troops and horses." Jia Heng said in a low voice. He went south with only more than a thousand retinues in brocade robes to paralyze the enemy.

When Qu Guang saw this, he should come down.

Jia Heng pondered for a moment and asked in a low voice: "How is Shihou's governance in Henan?"

Qu Guang said softly: "Marquis Shi has not been in office for a long time, and he has always followed the military and political policies of the former governor of Henan, the Commander-in-Chief."

Shi Ding still had some skills, because he had previously made up his mind to change the place to a feudal territory for a while in Henan. Instead, he handed over the matters at hand to his staff and implemented policies according to Jia Heng's instructions.

Hearing this, Jia Heng nodded and said, "Please pay more attention in Henan. If anything happens, send me a letter as soon as possible."

In addition to Qu Guang's route, there are other news channels.

"Yes, Jieshuai." Qu Guang responded.

And just when Jia Heng was staying in Kaifeng City, in the afternoon, the ship on which Chu Princess Zhen Qing was riding, and a ship escorted by 200 people in Chu Palace, also sailed into the ferry outside Kaifeng City, preparing to replenish fruits and vegetables in Kaifeng City.

freshwater.

Compared to Jia Heng's fleet, Zhen Qing's fleet only had three ships, one large and two small, and two escort ships, one of which led many nuns to Kaifeng Mansion.

Princess Chu Zhen Qing came to the cabin where Zhen Xue lived, opened the bead curtain, and a fragrant fragrance hit her nostrils, refreshing her heart and mind.

Princess Zhen Xue of Beijing is sitting behind a mahogany desk in front of the window. The beauty is in a green dress with wide sleeves and fluttering robes. The river breeze passes through the window. Her hair is flowing down like a long waterfall. She is holding a brush in her hand.

It is written in plum blossom small regular script.

Princess Chu Zhen Qing frowned slightly and looked at her sister. She turned away from the female official and asked, "Sister, let's go to Kaifeng City to rest for the night."

Zhen Qing came out this time and took her son with her. Because the child was a little seasick, Zhen Qing planned to rest in Kaifeng Mansion for a day.

Zhen Xue asked with concern: "Is it okay?"

Princess Chu Zhen Qing said: "It's nothing. I looked at him and wanted to go to Kaifeng Fucheng to play. The boat ride along the way was boring."

Zhen Xue nodded and said softly: "That's fine, it's fine to stay in Kaifeng Mansion for two days."

"By the way, sister, did you hear something?" Princess Chu Zhen Qing blinked her beautiful eyes under Liu Ye's slender eyebrows, came to Zhen Xue, and asked in a low voice.

"What's wrong, sister?" Zhen Xue asked in surprise.

Princess Chu Zhen Qing smiled, with a bit of amusement in her beautiful eyes, and said softly: "I heard someone said that Jia Heng is in Kaifeng at the moment."

Zhen Xue's appearance suddenly changed. The hair brush she was holding in her hand couldn't help but form a stain on the rice paper. Circles rippled in her heart. Her eyes flickered and she said softly: "He is in Kaifeng Mansion right now?"

"Perhaps I was passing by. Shi Ding, the Marquis of Zhongjing, was the governor of Kaifeng. He was the governor of Henan before. He had to stop when passing by Kaifeng." Zhen Qing chuckled lightly and glanced at the stained rice paper, thinking in her heart

There was a strange feeling.

The younger sister was indeed upset. After all, they had not been together for a long time, and their lives were really miserable.

Zhen Xue put down her brush, pinched the ring on her finger, and was speechless for a moment. The two of them had nothing to do with each other anymore, and it would be better not to see each other.

At this moment, Shui Xin, who was playing with a few nannies not far away, seemed to have heard the conversation between the two sisters, and ran over all the way, with a smile on his pink face, and said in a sweet voice

: "Mom, my godfather is in Kaifeng Fucheng. Let's go see him, okay?"

Seeing the sullen look on Zhen Xue's pretty face, she felt irritated and whispered, "What are you going to see him for?"

Shui Xin was startled for a moment, with a greasy face and a look of grievance in his eyes like black grapes, because Zhen Xue rarely irritated Shui Xin, but this was the first time, but it made Princess Chu Zhen Qing look at her.

Those who watched on the side felt sorry for him.

"Xinxin, don't cry. Come here, auntie. Your mother is in a bad mood." Zhen Qing hugged the little girl and comforted her,

As she said that, she looked at Zhen Xue with a slight frown and said, "Whatever my sister does to Xinxin, she is also thinking about her godfather."

Seeing this, Zhen Xue felt apologetic on her beautiful face. She pulled Shui Xin, held her in her arms, and whispered: "Okay, Xinxin, mother shouldn't be cruel to you. Your godfather is busy with official duties.

It’s not good for us to disturb him all the time.”

Zhen Qing's eyes flashed and she persuaded, "Sister, since Xinxin is thinking about her godfather, she might as well meet him."

This is an opportunity to test the weight of his sister in that bastard's heart. If he comes to see Xinxin, it means that he thinks highly of his sister and Xinxin and his daughter.

Zhen Xue sighed softly, without agreeing or rejecting. Will he come?

In the evening, with the setting sun shining slantingly, Jia Heng, who was in the capital city of Kaifeng, suddenly received a greeting note from Zhen Qing. He read the words on it and finished reading, looking slightly startled.

"This Chu Princess Zhen Qing..." Jia Heng put down the invitation, his eyes flashed under his sword-shaped eyebrows, and he thought to himself, don't you think about him anymore?

A bad woman like Zhen Qing has a very hot desire for power, so other desires are naturally stronger. He had discovered it after having two skin-to-skin kisses with her before, Jiu Kuang... But this woman has always distinguished some things very clearly.

She was also very stubborn. Every time I asked her how she was doing, she would always curse and refuse to acknowledge her.

With this thought in mind, and a little bit of excitement, Jia Heng left the residence and went to the residence mentioned in the greeting card.

This is a manor purchased by Princess Chu Zhen Qing in Kaifeng Mansion in her early years. It occupies a vast area with dense forests, front hall and backyard. Not only is the Zhen family used to stay in Guining, but also the Zhen family will stay in the mansion if they go to Beijing.

Take a rest without having to go to crowded inns and inns.

For such noble people, it is not a strange thing to purchase properties in big cities across the country.
