Chapter 735 Zhen Qing: Do you still need to tell me?
Yangzhou, Yanyuan Yamen
I don't know when, a heavy mist and rain closed in the courtyard. The sycamore trees in the courtyard were rustling. On the gatehouse with green eaves, light rain fell on the eaves tiles mottled with time, soaked through the green and black moss, and formed a trickle.
With a "cracking" rhythm, it fell on the green bricks under the eaves of the corridor, moistening the stone steps and making them wet.
Outside the study, Chen Xiao was dressed in brocade and flying fish clothes, with slightly furrowed eyebrows and slender white joints. He was standing under the eaves of the corridor holding an embroidered spring knife. Because he had practiced martial arts since he was a child, his hearing was sharp. Although it was covered by the wind and rain, he could still vaguely hear it.
I heard the slightest strange noise in the study room.
In the study room, there is an embroidered couch with curtains on all sides, and the necklaces tied with golden hooks on both sides are jumping up and down, sometimes bunching up and sometimes scattering.
Jia Heng gently held Zhen Qing's waist. Hua Xin, a young woman in her twenties who had given birth to a son and had a plump figure, whispered: "Qing'er."
Zhen Qing snorted, and this time she had no energy to correct Jia Heng's address issue. Mingyu's bright forehead and temples were dripping with sweat, and her face was as charming as a poppy stamen, with a rose-red aura.
The halo was densely spread along the beautiful neck and face.
Jia Heng patted the millstone, lay down and said, "How long are you going to stay in Jinling this time? When will you return to Beijing?"
Zhen Qing's beautiful eyes slightly lowered, she looked down at the young man, and said in a trembling voice: "You ask...why do you ask this? Stay for two months, and finally come back."
Jia Heng took the beauty's slender hand, and under Zhen Qing's surprised gaze, they interlocked their fingers and explained, "Be careful not to fall."
Zhen Qing's pretty face was already as red as Danxia, her phoenix eyes looked at Jia Heng angrily, and she said angrily, "You are the only one who knows better."
It’s really one thing after another, and I don’t know which vixen I have tried it with.
Jia Heng frowned and said in a low voice: "Fourth Uncle Qin, since he thinks he has the ability, let him and Shen Fang deal with it first. I'm not in a hurry."
"You won't see them at night?" Zhen Qing frowned, raised her neck slightly, and lightly drew circles on the tassels hanging down from the golden hairpin on her bun, and said with a slightly trembling voice: "In this case,
The old lady still has her father...it’s time to be suspicious."
Jia Heng said: "I won't see them two anymore. I won't go to your house until we get to Jinling."
Zhen Qing thought about it for a moment, her face flushed, her teeth biting her lips, and she said: "Well, my fourth uncle didn't do it right this time. I think he will have troubles again in the future."
Jia Heng said coldly: "Having such a source of trouble is the reason for ruining the family."
Zhen Qing sighed and whispered: "He is still my fourth uncle after all, although he is a bit reckless and confused."
As he spoke, his long and clear phoenix eyes seemed to narrow, and he said softly: "Didn't the Jia family still have Jia She at the beginning, but later he was exiled to Guizhou because he was implicated in the grassland smuggling case?"
She had a vague feeling that the person in front of her might have used some means to eliminate internal hidden dangers, but the original smuggling case was clearly reported and impeached by King Zhongshun.
Jia Heng said: "I was exiled to Guizhou. As a martial artist, I smuggled into the grassland. It is really unreasonable."
Zhen Qing frowned, pursed her lips, and said, "By the way, what happened to Princess Xianning?"
Jia Heng looked at the beauty who was squatting and asked, "What's going on?"
"There is talk in the capital that my father wants to promise Xianning to you. As my sister-in-law, I just want to ask you about it." Zhen Qing chuckled lightly and said, "You two went to Henan Pingtan together.
Luan, I thought it was not simple at first, but then I heard that you guys... When you marry Xianning, we will become one family."
"Who did you listen to?" Jia Heng frowned and said softly: "So, I want to call you sister-in-law."
Zhen Qing's jade cheeks were flushed, and she said sarcastically: "You should have called me. Speaking of which, my father is really devoted to you. You already have a wife, and you are still interfering with me like this."
Thinking about this, I even feel a little jealous. My father's favor for this man is almost much stronger than that of my own son.
Jia Heng sneered: "Then how come there is a man like you in the world who sleeps with his sister-in-law?"
Zhen Qing said in embarrassment: "It's not you who is such a harmful person."
Jia Heng turned his face to the side and said: "Who on earth used such despicable means in the first place? Let's beat him up, right? Okay, do your thing, I'm almost asleep."
Zhen Qing: "..."
Her beautiful eyes looked at Jia Heng angrily, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, she twisted the soft flesh around Jia Heng's waist, and a golden hairpin on her bun was shaking her tassels in circles. In the past, for beauties, this was
She rarely does it, but maybe it was because she had just practiced it. Princess Chu felt that she had no dignity in front of Jia Heng, but she didn't need to put on airs.
After a while, in Zhen Qing's angry eyes, I heard a word in my ear: "It's grinding."
Immediately, the soles of their feet turned upward, and about half an hour later, the two hugged each other tightly, almost like paper clips. As for the red dress that was in the way, it was just removed with Jia Heng's help.
Zhen Qing's jade face was slightly red, her beautiful eyes were unopened and charming, she hugged Jia Heng's neck tightly, her cheek pressed against her thumping chest, and she didn't know what it was like in her heart. She opened her mouth slightly,
He murmured: "Zi Yu."
Jia Heng also hugged Zhen Qing tightly and whispered: "What's wrong?"
He was trying to conquer this poisonous woman, otherwise he wouldn't be able to paperclip, and this poisonous woman didn't want him to be devoted to her? So she kept pulling Zhen Xue.
Zhen Qing opened her beautiful, slightly moist eyes. Her face was as beautiful as a peach and plum. She was lost in thought for a moment. She pursed her pink lips and whispered, "It's nothing."
As my sister said, this bastard has too many tricks to manipulate people. She feels that she may never be able to live without this bastard in her life, but she must not tell him, otherwise he will be complacent and use it to take advantage of her.
Jia Heng piled a snowman and whispered: "It's inexplicable."
In fact, we can guess a little bit. Zhen Qing is becoming more and more open-minded. The feeling of spiritual and sexual unity is an unspeakable impact on the beauty. She wants to make him her slave forever.
As for him, he is secretly waiting for Zhen Qing to fall deeply into it, and then pull away. It is absolutely impossible for a woman like Zhen Qing to just be nice to her. He must suppress her completely, and then wait for her to become furious.
Jia Heng suppressed some of the plans in his mind and suddenly asked: "How is Xue'er doing there?"
Zhen Qing chuckled lightly, as if she found it quite interesting, and whispered: "My sister is not like that, sometimes she is like this, sometimes like that, you have to find her."
But this person just likes his sister who refuses and welcomes her. Will she... next time?
Jia Heng was silent for a moment and said softly: "She should not have been involved in these things. It was your ambition that harmed her, so I have pity on her."
Zhen Qing couldn't help but sneered and said angrily: "What about me? Are you going to do all kinds of cruel things to me? No mercy?"
This is also the reason why Zhen Xue feels that her sister is just a plaything. Not to mention the past, let’s just talk about the current situation. Although Jia Heng does not think it is too much, compared with her sister, Zhen Qing feels that Jia Heng should not go too far.
Jia Heng turned his eyes, stretched out his hand to gently caress Zhen Qing's sweaty skin, wiped the sweat gently, and said, "Are you jealous?"
"Who would be jealous of you?" Zhen Qing's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and she became angry from embarrassment and said coquettishly.
Again, two people are treated like a couple. After all, she and he are just...
Jia Heng stretched out his arms to hug Zhen Qing, looked at the beautiful face that was white and rosy, and said softly: "If you didn't have so many rebellious thoughts, I would treat you better."
Zhen Qing's delicate body trembled slightly, and she said quietly: "That's all I think about, otherwise my life would be meaningless."
Jia Heng said: "Why is it boring? You are a princess and enjoy endless glory and wealth. Besides, isn't it quite interesting now?"
"When the king...he takes the vassal, I can only stay in the fiefdom and cannot go out." Zhen Qing's eyes flashed, and she said with a self-deprecating smile: "I'm afraid you won't be able to see me at that time, and over time, you will have forgotten me.
It’s over.”
Jia Heng was silent for a moment, thinking on his face, and said softly: "It seems so. If I miss you, I can't go to the King of Chu to drink, get him drunk, and hold you next to him..."
When Zhen Qing heard this, she felt a sense of shame welling up in her body and mind. She snorted and pinched Jia Heng hard. This bastard was messing around again, and he could still see what he was saying.
However, the young woman Hua Xin didn't know what to do. Perhaps because Jia Heng talked too much and gradually became desensitized, it was not so difficult to accept in her heart. Instead, she felt something strange in her heart.
Well, no, how could she be like this?
It's all this bastard's fault. When he first held her, he kept asking in her ear, "Is it the prince or him... How could this bastard have the nerve to ask?"
Jia Heng's eyes looked strange and he whispered: "You seem to be looking forward to it."
When skin to skin is close to each other, any slight change can be magnified. This Zhen Qing is really getting more and more interesting.
"Get out! You dirty bitch." Zhen Qing was angry and beat Jia Heng with her pink fists like raindrops, but Jia Heng was easily subdued.
Zhen Qing's jade face was slightly red and she was breathing slightly. She suppressed the ripples in her heart and snorted coldly. Under her beautiful eyebrows, her moist and beautiful eyes flickered dimly, and she said in a low voice: "Even if you don't help me, don't ruin my business.
otherwise…"
"Well, are you being cruel again?" Jia Heng frowned and hugged Zhen Qing for a while...
Zhen Qing's jade cheeks, which were as bright as a rosy cloud, were as red as blood from shame. She bit her cherry lips with her white teeth and whispered: "You bastard."
Is this person finished?
Jia Heng said softly: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Every time we talk about it, we will quarrel."
He had to let this Zhen Qing win him over. If he wanted to take it first, he would have to give it to her first. When the time was right, Zhen Qing would know that without him, the position of queen that she longed for might not be as satisfying.
For example, Empress Song, her position as empress was just like that. She hadn't been in it for many years... I don't know how she got here.
"It's you who insists on saying it." Zhen Qing's beautiful eyebrows were curved and Yurong said angrily.
The two of them talked for a while. Jia Heng glanced at the misty and rainy courtyard outside and said softly: "It's getting late. It's time to go. Don't make people suspicious."
Although the two of them talked about military camp secrets together, staying in the same room for too long would always make people suspicious.
"The female officials are all my confidants, so it doesn't matter." Zhen Qing's beautiful face was dizzy, and her charming and flowing eyes showed a sharp look, and she asked: "That general in brocade clothes following you?"
In fact, she had already disposed of the nanny who had been suspicious of her, and had made secret remarks in private. She was surrounded by young female officials who had been her confidants for many years, and the lives of her family were in her hands.
If you have doubts, just pretend you don’t know.
She and he needed to find a long-term solution, and she felt that apart from the fact that he always liked to irritate people, there was nothing else that would suit her.
"She is the female guard and my confidant. Nothing is wrong." Jia Heng gently pinched Zhen Qing's cheek and said warmly.
Chen Xiao is already a strange person on the scene anyway, so there is no need to avoid it.
When Zhen Qing heard this, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, her beautiful eyes filled with water seemed to be thinking a bit. The guard in Jinyi just now looked handsome, with eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and he really didn't look like a man.
Jia Heng nodded, helped Zhen Qing up, straightened her clothes, then picked up the handkerchief and handed it over, then poured the tea, and with the roaring steam rising up, a faint fragrance rose.
Go to the incense burner, fill it with ice silk and incense slices, and let the sandalwood curl up, refreshing the indoor air.
Zhen Qing stood up with a snow-white lotus-rooted arm, straightened her dress, and came forward with a soft voice. She said with a soft and greasy voice, "Then I will say that when I get back."
It's hard for her to go back at this time, for fear that the clues will be discovered.
Jia Heng walked closer, looked at the charming beauty, called Zhen Qing, and said, "Wait a moment."
With that said, he walked closer and stretched out his hand to help Zhen Qing pick up the scattered Jin Chai Bu Yao again.
Zhen Qing's surprised gaze gradually retracted, and her eyes were as soft as water. She allowed the boy, who was seven or eight years younger than her, to gently hold on to her golden hairpin and adjust her clothes. There was also a hint of sweetness deep in her heart.
As the beauty gradually became quieter, Jia Heng took another clean handkerchief, gently touched the sweat on the beauty's cheeks and neck, and said: "You go back to your and Xue'er's manor to take a bath first, and kill yourself."
Just give me a message from a female official, saying that I haven't seen a good look on my face, so you should go back and have a good rest. I saw that I didn't sleep well yesterday, and my eyes are bloodshot."
As he spoke, he gently stroked the corners of Zhen Qing's eyes and felt the charm flowing through his fingers.
"Yes." Zhen Qing raised her beautiful eyes and looked at the young man who spoke warmly. The contours of the young man's handsome face were reflected in her watery beautiful eyes. For a moment, she was silent.
Compared to last time, she seemed to be a little gentler to her this time. Well, was it because she had just served him? She was indeed a dirty bitch.
Jia Heng looked at the beauty with fair and rosy skin, pinched her plump and white cheeks, and said, "Okay, the princess is unparalleled in her grace and beauty."
It was originally a piece of fertile soil, but after it was cultivated by another person, it became rich and fruitful in an instant.
"Do you even need to say that?" Zhen Qing snorted and said angrily. She was the most beautiful in the first place, otherwise she wouldn't have let this person be so... obsessed and obsessed with her.
Then, the beauty tidied up her makeup and slowly left the study. As usual, she went to the toilet first and washed her hands.
Jia Heng came to the desk, picked up a book, flipped through it casually, and then left the room refreshed. At that time, it was almost dusk, the sky was dark, light rain was falling, and the shadowy eaves were shrouded in the distance.
In the midst of confusion.
Jia Heng looked at Chen Xiao, who was standing with a frosty expression on his face, his face as calm as water, and asked: "Is there any new news?"
"Wang Shouqi came from Jinling. He sent someone to send a greeting card and was going to visit you. I would like to ask to see you." Chen Xiao's nose twitched slightly, his beautiful eyebrows frowned, and his voice was a bit colder. He didn't know that he was expressing his gratitude for the visit just now.
Is it because of something else?
Jia Heng nodded and said, "I'll go see him after I take a bath. What else?"
"The Cheng family also confessed, and now the Bao family and the Huang family are involved. What should we do next?" Chen Xiao asked.
Jia Heng pondered for a moment and said in a low voice: "First of all, we will interrogate and send the Jinyi Mansion Tiqi to seal off the two manors to prevent the children of the two families from transferring their property. If we have solid evidence, we will arrest and torture them."
Seeing Chen Xiao who was still following closely, he asked, "Is there anything else?"
"When you are young, you should be careful about sex. You are so indulged in drinking, sex, and debauchery... it is not a long-term solution." Chen Xiao said in a cold voice with clear eyes shining under his beautiful eyebrows.
She felt that it was necessary to advise her cousin that if he really controlled the world in the future and continued to be so out of control, there would definitely be problems.
Jia Heng looked at Chen Xiao in surprise. After a moment, he chuckled and said: "You... you don't know me, but you have good intentions. From today on, I will quit drinking."
Chen Xiao: "???"
What is quitting drinking? Does this have anything to do with alcohol? He usually doesn't drink much, so she asked him to temper it, which took several hours every time. There was also the Chu Princess Zhen Qing who looked like a witch, a snake and a scorpion.
"Okay, I'm going to take a shower. Let's talk later." Jia Heng turned to look at Chen Xiao and whispered. He couldn't help but reach out and pinch his face gently, but this time he didn't stimulate Chen Xiao again, just a normal face pinch.
Chen Xiao: "..."
He looked at the young man who quickly entered the wing with shame, and tightly grasped the embroidered spring knife at his waist.
After returning home, he needs to talk to his aunt, otherwise, if he continues to be ridiculous like this, it will not be a long-term solution.
As night fell, the rain seemed to become heavier. Jia Heng put on a Sichuan brocade green shirt and came to the front hall. Wang Shouqi had been waiting for a long time.
As soon as he saw Jia Heng, Wang Shouqi quickly stood up to greet him, cupped his hands and said, "I've met Uncle Yongning before."
Jia Heng looked at Wang Shouqi and asked, "Master Wang is not working in Jinling, so how come you have time to come here?"
Wang Shouqi sighed and said: "When I was in Jinling, I never thought that the Ma family and the Cheng family would be so bold and dared to send people to hijack the prison of Jinyi Mansion. I was quite shocked after hearing the news."
Jia Heng said: "Now the two of them have been arrested."
Wang Shouqi said: "Uncle Yongning, I would like to ask you, what do the Bao family and the Huang family say?"
Jia Heng said: "The heads of the two families were at the Cheng family on the night of the prison robbery. They are also suspected of being accomplices. The case of smuggling to Donglu was previously discovered and is being investigated. Didn't Mr. Wang say the same thing before?"
When Wang Shouqi heard this, his expression froze for a moment, and he did not continue. He said, "I wonder how this case will be tried in the end, Uncle Yong Ning?"
If these families bring out the case of the Salt Transportation Department's deficit, then no one can escape.
"Colluding with the Donglu is a major case since the founding of the People's Republic of China. It will eventually be sent to the divine capital to ask for an order from the Holy Emperor to deal with it." Jia Heng looked calm and said with relief: "Master Wang, don't worry, as long as other salt merchants don't collude with Donglu."
Even if there is collusion between the prisoners, there is no need to worry about being affected by the case."
The worries in Wang Shouqi's heart did not go away. His face paused, and he looked at Jia Heng with his old eyes and said: "Uncle Yong Ning is still free recently. I heard that the Jiangbei camp is reorganizing and recruiting soldiers. I'm looking for a few more."
Family friends donated military pay to support the camp."
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wang is too polite. The Jiangbei camp's salary was originally allocated by the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Nanjing Ministry of War. We cannot let local merchants in Yangzhou spend money all the time. This is harmful to the country's economy."
The so-called donation is just money taken from the transportation storehouse. The left hand is poured into the right hand. When the deficit in the salt transportation storehouse is found out, these people will have to return whatever silver they took from the imperial court.
When Wang Shouqi heard this, he became even more worried.
Jia Heng said: "Mr. Wang, I have to go to Jinling again tomorrow, but I'm afraid I won't be able to be at Yangzhou Yanyuan Yamen. If I have anything to do, I'll talk about it when I get back."
Speaking of which, I haven't seen Daiyu for a few days. Daiyu doesn't know how to worry.
Wang Shouqi nodded, bowed his hands and left Yangzhou Yanyuan Yamen with a heavy heart.
After Wang Shouqi left, Chen Xiao walked closer and asked, "Is Wang Shouqi scared?"
Jia Heng said: "Half of the eight general merchants in Yangzhou were wiped out at once, plus all my troops in Yangzhou city, how could they not panic? The next step is to wait for their choice, whether to surrender to Jiangnan or to
Throw it to Jiangbei."
If he gets mixed up with Shen Fang, needless to say, there will be a fight.
