Chapter 750: Queen Song: It was slightly cold that night and it was hard to sleep alone.

 Shenjing City

As the courtiers left the palace one after another, the news that the bandits were disrupting Jiangnan also spread to Shenjing City. For a time, the entire Shenjing City was shrouded in a sense of surprise.

Donglu joined forces with sea pirates to disrupt the land south of the Yangtze River. These Donglu are really all-pervasive!

Because in the impression of the common people in Shenjing, the Donglu have made trouble in Jizhou in recent years, and the imperial court has been losing battles, and they will never reach the bustling and noisy south.

What surprised the people and officials in Shenjing even more was that the Zhenhai navy had been severely defeated when they encountered the Donglu, and the leading military commander Zhen Zhu was captured alive. Doesn't that mean that Jinling is in danger?

This was another incident that attracted the attention of the people of Shenjing after the Henan Rebellion.

Not long after that, no one knew who was spreading the word in Shenjing, Yongning Bo Jiaheng was stationed in Yangzhou, commanding the navy of the Jiangbei camp to fight the decisive battle with the Japanese invaders.

Prince Wei's Mansion

King Chen Ran of Wei was sitting in the pavilion, and his uncle Song Jing was sitting on a small table across the room.

In addition, there is a middle-aged man in a blue shirt with a scribe's appearance. He has a quiet demeanor and is silent while drinking tea.

His name was Deng Wei, who was now the chief historian of the Wei Palace. He was a scribe recruited by Song Jing with the help of Chen Ran.

"Uncle, has he heard any news from Beijing?" Chen Ran asked, looking at Song Jing with gleaming eyes under his sharp eyebrows.

Song Jing nodded and said: "The Zhen family is finished this time. Not only did the fourth son of the Zhen family suffer a defeat, but he was also captured by the bandits. It was a disgrace. The emperor was furious and called him a fool in the court meeting. If he hadn't lived or died,

I don’t know, I’m afraid I’ll be disappointed on the spot, but it won’t be long before the Zhen family will be implicated.”

Chen Ran's eyes flashed and he said: "Uncle, I heard that the old lady of the Zhen family is about to die, and my father hates the Zhen family deeply. When the old lady of the Zhen family leaves, I want to start a thorough investigation of the salt affairs, that is, a thorough physical examination.

Renyuan and the three major weaving bureaus, Jinling Tirenyuan will be vacant at that time."

Growing up in the palace, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Tirenyuan (the three major weaving bureaus) were both in lucrative positions. The Tirenyuan had previously controlled the Chonghua Palace and was regarded as an independent small treasury with the Jiangnan Salt Transport Department.

.

Song Jing said: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will try my best to plan this matter." Chen Ran said: "Where is Brother Chu Wang?"

Song Jing put down the tea cup, shook his head and said, "The Zhen family is affected by this, but the Chu Prince's Palace may not be affected."

After hearing this, Chen Ran was silent for a moment and asked: "Uncle, what do you say?" Song Jing said: "Even if the Zhen family is raided and the property is confiscated, because of the Supreme Emperor and the presence of Princess Beijing and Princess Chu, the Zhen family will at most decline.

, Unless it is found that Tirenyuan transfers a large amount of money to the Chu Palace every year and has evil intentions, the Holy Emperor will be disgusted and secretly note this matter, but "but what?" Chen Ran asked with a focused gaze.

Song Jing did not answer, but looked at Deng Wei with sharp eyes and said: "However, if you want to find out some untoward things, one person is very important. Mr. Deng, who do you think this person is?"

"Uncle Yongning." Deng Wei put down the tea cup and spoke in an understatement, "Uncle Yongning is the governor of Jinyi and a lucky minister of the emperor. If he can use it as a sword, the Zhen family will definitely be able to make the King of Chu fall into the water. However,

This person’s thoughts are unpredictable and he will not do what we want.”

Chen Ran heard this and murmured: "Jia Ziyu."

At first, he originally thought that after Jia Ziyu returned from fighting the rebellion in Henan, he would be able to entrust him with the errands of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division. Although he was eventually entrusted to him, it was different from what he had imagined.

Perhaps there is some truth to what the Queen Mother said. With Jia Ziyu's name on his side, Ziyu would be able to make decisions about anything in the future. To be honest, Jia Ziyu would be even closer to him after marrying Xianning.

Song Jing said: "However, as far as I know, the fourth son of the Zhen family has caused such a big mistake, and Jia Ziyu will no longer help the Zhen family. Moreover, the previous ordering of the Jiangnan camp was actually handled by the Liangjiang Governor's Office. This matter is quite strange.

, I suspect that the Zhen family has spoiled Uncle Yongning and His Majesty's plan to organize the army." Chen Ran hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Now that the bandits are attacking, Uncle Yongning will have to fight them back, in this case it will be a huge defeat."

"Impossible." Song Jing and Deng Wei said almost in unison.

"It's okay to say that he won't win. After all, he has never claimed to be proficient in water warfare, but a big defeat shouldn't be a big deal. Now that things have happened, the prince is determined to win."

Don’t underestimate Uncle Yong Ning,” Deng Wei reminded.

Song Jing explained: "These newly-ennobled military heroes, if they are like wine bags and rice bags, would not have quickly stopped the chaos in Henan before. It is hard to tell if they are in the north. The Eastern captives are galloping on the grasslands, but now it is impossible for the Eastern captives to take a boat."

There are probably not many real Jurchens here."

Compared with Jiangnan, the two ministers of the Ministry of War and Shen Fang still have the mentality of "Jia Heng is defeated, then everyone will be equally bad".

In Shenjing City, even Yang Guochang has already formed a basic recognition because of the fake military reports before and after the First World War in Henan.

Jia Heng has something, but not much.

There shouldn't be any big problems in this kind of war. Even if it doesn't work, at least it can be invincible.

Zhen Zhu, what kind of cat and dog is that? Relying on the nepotism of the Zhen family to become a general, it is normal for the navy to lose to the pirates and suffer a big defeat, but Yong Ningbo is at most disadvantageous in the war and can't stand a stalemate.

But when the time comes, it does not prevent everyone from reading the joke. The advocacy of "Pinglu Ce" talks about advancing on both land and water, but in the end it is impossible to fight by water.

At this moment, in Kunning Palace, Queen Song and Concubine Duanrong were entertaining the arriving Princess Jinyang and Li Chanyue. In addition, there were Song Jing's wife Shen and Song Jing's daughter Song Yan.

Because after the Mid-Autumn Festival the day before yesterday, it was the birthday of Empress Song. The palace was celebrating the birthday of the Lord of the Sixth Palace. The red silk ribbons on the palace had not been removed, so it looked quite festive.

Coincidentally, Empress Song was born on August 16th, which was the second day after the Mid-Autumn Festival, while Qin Keqing was born on August 14th, and they were married on August 15th.

A few days ago, several ministers in the palace successively delivered birth gifts to Empress Song.

Today, Empress Song is wearing a light yellow phoenix embroidered dress, sitting quietly, her dark green hair is styled in a heart-shaped bun, with pearl hairpins dotted between the buns.

Earrings, that graceful and plump face, with curved eyebrows, as gorgeous as peaches and plums, and unparalleled youthfulness.

The emerald necklace on her beautiful neck is shining, and the skin against which it is reflected is as white and greasy as a pistil, and the plump breasts under the double-breasted skirt are like the fifteenth moon.

She is completely different from a woman who is thirty-six years old and has raised two sons. The years of gentle treatment seem to have left no other traces on this beauty except a few maternal charms.

Empress Song smiled sweetly, her face as beautiful as a peach pistil, looked at Li Chanyue, and said softly: "Chanyue, how are you and your sister doing with your dancing recently?"

The little princess was wearing a lotus-colored dress, with a bun on her head, and her eyebrows were a little shy under the air bangs. She said softly: "I just find time to learn. My aunt is a little busy these days, but I have already learned five or six kinds of dances.

"

When Mr. Jia comes back, I think I will be able to see more.

"Xianning has been learning it since she was a child. She has learned a lot of music. If you don't know anything, you can ask her. Anyway, you two usually stay together longer." Concubine Duanrong looked at Li Chanyue with eyes full of water, and smiled.

said.

From now on, the two of them will be like her and her sister, serving the same person, huh? This metaphor is inappropriate. In short, the two of them will be together for a lifetime.

Not far away, the eldest princess of Jinyang was dressed in a vermilion dress, with a moth bun on her temples, and a beautiful face. She held a tea cup in a slender jade hand, brought it to her lips, and took a sip. Her eyes seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

He looked at Concubine Duanrong.

Asking Xianning? Do you want Chanyue to be a child with peace of mind in the future?

Princess Xianning said softly: "Queen Mother, Chan Yue can dance very well now."

Two people are going to be sisters for life, and Yuan is usually close to each other. Chanyue will need her to teach her a lot in the future.

Empress Song looked at Song Jing's wife, Shen, and her eyes fell on the pretty little girl in a pink skirt. She smiled and said: "Brothers and sisters, you can also let Yan'er learn dance from Xianning."

Song Yan is the niece of Empress Song. She is thirteen years old. Her eyebrows are like a crescent moon, her face is like a pear, and her skin is snow-white and pink. Compared to Princess Xianning, the aunt and niece of Empress Song, her facial lines and charm are more inherited from her biological daughter.

The mother looked up at the concubine's beautiful features.

Song Yan's appearance and facial features are somewhat similar to the appearance of her aunt, Queen Song, in her boudoir, a youthful version of Queen Song.

Just like the clear sky is the dark shadow,

As the hairpin, Xiangling looks like Keqing in appearance and character, and Jiamu looks like Xiangyun (cross out this one. In fact, this kind of charm is slightly similar. Although it is rare, it is not impossible.

Mrs. Shen smiled and said: "Queen, our Yan'er is a little shy and may not be able to learn to dance."

Empress Song smiled and looked at the little girl who looked a little embarrassed, as if she saw her own shadow many years ago, and said softly: "When I was as old as her, I was quiet and shy. I'll just wait until I grow up."

Later, when the beauties entered the palace, the original eldest lady of the Song family was dead, leaving only Niu Columen, the talented person of Song, the concubine of Song, and the empress of Song.

Song Yan raised her head and cast her bright eyes at Empress Song like a clear spring. There was a hint of shyness and shyness on her beautiful face.

Empress Song turned to Princess Xianning and asked, "Speaking of which, Ziyu has been in Jiangnan for a while. Did he send any letters before the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

She knew that Xianning and Jia Ziyu had a very close relationship, and they would have exchanged letters during the previous festivals.

Princess Xianning did not hesitate and said softly: "After returning to my mother, my husband sent a letter the day before yesterday, saying that he would send some specialties from the southern province. They are still on the way."

The eldest princess of Jinyang chuckled and said: "What kind of local products are you sending? Is it food?"

Princess Xianning looked at the eldest princess Jinyang and thought to herself, it's not like her aunt doesn't exist, so she just came to ask.

The eldest princess of Jinyang said: "Sister-in-law, there are delicious food in the southern province. I haven't eaten the salted duck in Jinling for a few years. Didn't the sister-in-law go to Jinling back then?"

Beauty also went to Jinling with Emperor Longzhi in her early years.

Empress Song smiled and said: "It's difficult for you to remember Jinyang. I remember that it was still the 25th year of Longzhi. My sister and I went to Jinling to work with my father, and later met His Majesty."

That year, she was eighteen years old.

In the misty rain in Jinling, which was like willow silk blowing in the wind, I swam in Xuanwu Lake with my sister, and then met His Majesty. His Majesty was visiting privately incognito, as it seemed to be raining, and then we took a boat together.

Unexpectedly, it has been many years now. King Yong of that year became a rich and noble emperor, but the misty rain of Jinling back then seems to be gradually blurred in his memory.

As soon as you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea. At the third watch of the night, the quilt is slightly cold, and you can't sleep alone. The uncontrollable loneliness and resentment in your heart are like water plants, lingering in your body and mind.

The eldest princess of Jinyang did not expect that her casual words would evoke a complex emotion of sadness and loss in the heart of Queen Song.

Princess Xianning glanced at Princess Yan Yiliu, who was sitting quietly and smiling at the side, and said softly: "Mother, in the past few days, Brother Wei Wang and his sister-in-law have been busy going to Daci'en Temple to drop incense and pray for blessings. I and I

Chan Yue has nothing to do in the palace, so I want to go there together to pray for my mother and the Queen Mother."

After hearing this, Empress Song suppressed the trivial thoughts in her heart and turned to look at Yan Yiliu, only to see the girl in a light red dress quickly turn her eyes towards her and asked: "I heard from Your Majesty earlier that your father is

I should be back in Beijing in two days."

"Still on the road, just in these two days." Yan Yiliu said with a low eyebrow.

Nan'an County Prince Yan Ye and Baoling Hou Shi Nai were inspecting the border in the northwest. After more than half a year, the border troops in several towns had been reorganized.

As for King Beijing, he was also recalled by Emperor Chongping with an edict and would return to the capital soon. Although he was quite unwilling to accept the experience of Datong, there was nothing he could do about it.

Empress Song softly said a few words of comfort: "The Prince of Nan'an County is an important minister of the country. Now that he has successfully organized the army and returned with great honors, your father will also use him in the future."

The original reason for marrying into the royal family of Nan'an County was to leverage their military power.

Yan Yiliu's voice was clear and clear, and he said: "The Yan family has received many favors from the emperor, and it is their duty to share the country's worries."

Empress Song nodded, smiled and said: "If you think so, it is not in vain to marry Ran'er."

I originally thought that this daughter-in-law, who came from a family of military commanders, would be a bit strong in temperament, but she seems to be gentle and quiet during this time.

Yan Yiliu's head bowed slightly and she nodded in agreement.

But she sighed in her heart, this is Tianjia, she is the daughter-in-law after all. Compared with relatives like Princess Xianning and Prince Qinghe, it is difficult for her to joke freely.

At this moment, the voices of the eunuch and the female officer came, saying: "Your Majesty has arrived."

Several people who were talking got up one after another and looked at Emperor Chongping who was surrounded by the inner prison.

Seeing that the emperor looked bad, the Empress of the Song Dynasty walked closer, with a look of concern on her face, and called out: "Your Majesty."

Imperial Concubine Duanrong, Mrs. Shen, and the eldest princess of Jinyang came to see her.

Princess Xianning and Yan Yiliu also came to salute and called out: "My son (daughter-in-law) has met my father."

Emperor Chongping said: "Let's all be flat."

Xia Shouzhong, the eunuch in charge of the Sixth Palace, quickly brought over an embroidery pier with a wink and a flattering smile on his fair face: "Your Majesty, please."

Dai Quan glanced at Xia Shouzhong and sneered in his heart.

Emperor Chongping sat down and said in a low voice: "Ziyu just sent an urgent delivery. Something happened in the south of the Yangtze River. The navy encountered Jurchens and pirates, and most of them were damaged."

As soon as these words came out, Queen Song's face changed slightly, the handkerchief she held in her hand tightened, and she asked, "Your Majesty, how is Ziyu doing now?"

What? Ziyu is defeated?

This is really......

Princess Jinyang held the teacup in her hand for a moment and said softly: "Brother, didn't Ziyu report earlier? He was rectifying the salt affairs in Yangzhou. The Jiangbei camp had just taken over. How could he be fighting with the bandits and these bandits?

How did the bandits get to Jiangnan?"

Because of the relationship between the young princess and Jia Heng, everyone just regarded her as the mother-in-law who was concerned about her son-in-law.

The other mother-in-law, Princess Duanrong, raised her cold and glamorous face under her willow-leaf slender eyebrows and looked steadily at Emperor Chongping.

he?

Princess Xianning also frowned and said softly: "Father, Mr.

Li Chanyue cast her starry eyes over, but Yan Yiliu had doubts on his face. Mrs. Shen hugged her daughter Song Yan and stared at Emperor Chongping.

Emperor Chongping said coldly: "This time it is the Jiangnan camp. Zhen Zhu, this idiot, was recommended by Shen Fang to be the governor of the Navy. He led nearly ten thousand naval troops, but was defeated by the Donglu, resulting in a large number of naval forces.

After defeat, Ziyu now has to clean up his mess!"

When Empress Song heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief. Just now she thought... Ziyu was defeated, what would Xian Ning do?

In fact, this is because Jia Heng's achievements are not yet rock-solid and cannot withstand a defeat. He has just become an uncle and can only be said to have just emerged.

Once defeated, the foundation will be shaken, and enemies lurking in all directions will bite like hungry wolves.

Even the Empress of the Song Dynasty would wonder if Princess Xianning married a married man and also had a niece. Isn't it a bit... ill-considered?

To put it bluntly, what everyone is optimistic about is Jia Heng's potential and market valuation. He is already an earl at such a young age. He has made many meritorious deeds since he led the army and has never failed.

Emperor Chongping looked at his daughter who looked concerned, and said softly: "This time, Duduo, one of the eight banner lords of Donglu and the brother of the leader, contacted a group of desperadoes to invade Jiangkou. This time, Duduo

This time, when Zi Yu was unprepared, he wanted to assassinate Zi Yu."

As soon as these words came out, Empress Song and Concubine Duanrong looked at each other, and they both saw surprise and suspicion in each other's eyes.

Prince Donglu came to assassinate?

When Princess Xianning heard this, her crystal jade face froze for a moment, and she asked in surprise: "Father, sir, was he assassinated by a gangster some time ago?"

Why didn't your husband mention this in his letter? Did it just happen recently? Or maybe he didn't want to mention it and worry her.

The eldest princess of Jinyang, Liu Ye, also had worries in her soft and beautiful eyes under her slender eyebrows. He did not mention this matter in the letter home to her.

"Ziyu said it was just a false alarm and nothing happened." Emperor Chongping said with a gentle face, and said coldly: "Now it seems that this Duduo is really my powerful enemy. He went to the south of the Yangtze River to contact those gangsters who were robbing families at sea.

They are clearly trying to disrupt my Jiangnan agenda."

After everyone heard this, they felt relieved.

At this moment, an eunuch said: "Your Majesty, Yong Ningbo's memorial was urgently delivered six hundred miles the day before yesterday, and the flying pigeon letter about the salt affairs was sent from Jinyi Mansion."

Previously, although Jia Heng used flying pigeons to convey messages to Shenjing, and reported news in a timely manner, detailed memorials often came only after the fact.

In fact, even if the letter is sent by flying pigeons, because Jinling is too far away from Shenjing, it can only take a little more than one day to return to Shenjing in Kaifeng, Henan, and it often takes two or three days.

Some time ago, Jia Heng recorded the latest progress of Yangzhou Salt Affairs and the next plan, put it in a secret box, and reported it to Emperor Chongping.

The main content is the arrest and investigation of the Cheng and Ma families. In addition, it also contains a memorial to impeach Yuan Jichong, the prefect of Yangzhou.

Several memorials were delivered in a non-stop rush after six hundred miles, and finally arrived in the capital.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongping hurriedly stretched out his hand and called: "Bring it here, let me take a look."

Dai Quan opened the wooden box, took out three memorials, and bowed to present them.

Emperor Chongping took the memorial and read it in detail for a while. His originally solemn expression gradually relaxed, and he gently closed the memorial. He looked at Empress Song, Concubine Duanrong and others under his thin brows, and said: "Lianghuai Salt Affairs

There has been a breakthrough, and Ziyu will soon be able to clarify the clues and eliminate the long-standing shortcomings."

Now that some of the salt merchants have been arrested, the only thing left is to interrogate the two salt transport envoys to find out the accumulated deficiencies in the transportation warehouse.

After saying that, he called Dai Quan and ordered: "The cabinet drafted a decree and sent it to the governor of Yangzhou, Yuan Jichong. This official is greedy, cruel and cruel to the people. He will be dismissed immediately and handed over to the supervisor for questioning."

Zhen Zhen agreed to one sentence, and whatever he had to say, he would accept everything.

Dai Quan quickly handed over his hand.

The eldest princess of Jinyang asked: "Brother, has there been any breakthrough in the salt affairs over there in Yangzhou?"

"In order to make huge profits, the Ma family colluded with the Donglu, and used sea ships to smuggle to Liaodong all the year round. Wasn't Ziyu assassinated by the king of the Lu some time ago? There were those who secretly communicated with the Donglu, leaked information, and Ziyu captured Ma

After the family and others, the remnants of the Ma family were even more anxious and dared to use their dead men to hijack the Yangzhou Baihu Prison of the Jinyi Mansion. Ziyu was in Jinling at that time. After hearing about this inquiry, he personally returned at night to provide support, so as not to let the criminals get away from him.

Nugan succeeded in her plan, and then captured the Cheng family members in one fell swoop. "When he said this, Emperor Chongping's eyes lit up, and his heart was filled with excitement.

As for Empress Song and Concubine Duanrong, they both had surprise on their faces and were speechless for a long time.

A gangster robs a prison and returns at night. Why does this sound like a piece of drama?

Next to Shen, Song Yan also had a look of loss on her white and jade face. As Emperor Chongping narrated, she could not help but play out the scenes in her heart.

Princess Xianning's bright eyes shone brightly as she murmured: "Sir, how many dangers have you experienced in just a short period of time in Yangzhou?"

Li Chanyue Zangxing Yunyue's eyes also showed surprise. She turned her starry eyes to look at Princess Jinyang, only to see that her mother's face was already filled with worry.

Listening to what Emperor Chongping said, the eldest princess of Jinyang clenched her handkerchief unconsciously, her beautiful eyes filled with autumn water, and she sighed quietly in her heart.

Compared with Li Chanyue and Princess Xianning, Jinyang's eyes had no brilliance, only distress and worry.

The son has traveled a thousand miles, but the husband has traveled a thousand miles and the wife is worried. Wherever he goes, he has to go through life and death, and there is bloodshed.

Of course, this beauty knew that Jia Heng was not only a bloody man, but also a bombardment.

Holding Concubine Qing while jolting around, playing Jenga, catching mandarin ducks, and bleating sheep. I was afraid that this heartache would disappear in an instant, so I yelled at the dog man.

Empress Song's snow-skinned jade face showed a strange color, and her pink lips were like two rose petals. She opened her eyes slightly and could vaguely see her cherry teeth, which were stunned and overflowing with fragrance. They shone with a crystal-clear luster and said softly: "My son."

Why did Yuta go through so many dangers in Yangzhou?"

Just listening to a few words is thrilling.

Emperor Chongping looked calm and said: "Zitong, he was sent by me, and he will definitely be noticed. Even if Prince Donglu does not assassinate him, he will still have to fight to the death with those people! Speaking of which, Duduo also has some courage as a prince.

He actually went deep into our Han territory, assassinated our important military officials in a whimsical way, and now he is coercing pirates to invade our Jiangnan region, how vicious it is!"

Ziyu was a divine sword in the Han Dynasty. Even if the Zhenhai Navy was defeated and Yangzhou had Ziyu in charge, Jinling would also be defeated.

Nothing big will happen.

The more he felt at this time, the less he could be like Henan who was so worried that he hurt his body.

Seeing Emperor Chongping's fierce words, Empress Song comforted her softly: "Your Majesty, since Ziyu is in Yangzhou, don't worry too much."

No matter how serious the situation is now, it cannot be difficult for Henan. At that time, the emperor fainted and she felt that the sky was going to fall. That day

Concubine Duanrong, Princess Xianning, and Princess Jinyang all tried to persuade her.

Yan Yiliu looked at this scene, his eyebrows slightly furrowed and his eyes slightly absent-minded.

My father loved Uncle Yong Ning so much. No wonder the prince always said that my father treated Jia Ziyu, his son-in-law, like a father and son.

In fact, it's no wonder.

When she was getting married, something like that happened in Henan. The stubbornness and edge in the voice of the young man who insisted that the military report was false are still fresh in her memory.

I heard that my grandmother felt that she had lost a lot of dignity because of this incident, and she was very angry when she went back.

Emperor Chongping raised his eyes and looked at the eldest princess of Jinyang who was not far away, and said: "Jinyang, Ziyu just mentioned in his memorial that he would implement a new salt law and coordinate the management of salt profits with the Ministry of Internal Affairs. You may need to go south.

trip.

In the Kangxi Dynasty in parallel time and space, the salt inspector was an official from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It must be said that the Qing Dynasty knew well that they could not trust the ethics of bureaucrats and gentry.

The eldest princess of Jinyang said softly: "When my sister returns, she will prepare a boat and go south to Yangzhou."

He is probably fighting in the south of the Yangtze River at the moment, and the day before yesterday was August 15th, but I couldn't reunite with him, and I missed him a little.

"There's still a war going on over there, so there's no rush. Besides, the personnel of the Salt Transport Envoy still need to be sorted out. It won't be too late after a while," Emperor Chongping said.

The eldest princess of Jinyang said softly: "Brother, it will take a month for my sister to sail and travel. When we arrive in the south of the Yangtze River, wouldn't it be just in time to get everything sorted out there?"

This statement made Emperor Chongping stunned. He nodded and said softly: "That seems to be the truth, so that's fine."

As for the defeat of Jia Heng's army and the erosion of Jiangnan?

Sorry, there is no such thing in the hearts of these brothers and sisters. At most, they are fighting against the pirates and spending a lot of effort to rebuild the navy. This is not a fight against the Jurchens in the north. That is a battle involving the fate of the country.

Seeing this scene, Princess Xianning had a firm look on her clear and jade face and said, "Father, I will also go to Jiangnan with my aunt."

When Li Chanyue heard this, her starry eyes flashed slightly, she opened her mouth, and finally pursed her pink lips, and swallowed back the words "Me too..." that came to her lips.

Anyway, since my mother is gone, she can just follow her.

It seems that when Mr. Jia wrote to his cousin and mother, he didn't even write a letter to her. Maybe he forgot about it.

Concubine Duanrong frowned and said with an unhappy expression, "Xianning, your aunt has something to do when she goes south, why are you going to join in the fun?"

The last time she went to Henan, she was on tenterhooks. Why would she go there again now?

Princess Xianning said softly: "Mother, I am not going to Jinling to go to the battlefield. Jinling is the old capital over there, so it doesn't matter."

Concubine Duanrong looked at her daughter with beautiful features and eyes that resembled her own, and the stubbornness on her pure and beautiful face, she felt a wave of tiredness, and even a little aggrieved.

It is true that my daughter has grown up and has forgotten her mother. She only has eyes for her lover.

Princess Xianning came forward and took Concubine Duanrong's hand, and said in a low voice: "Concubine, I know martial arts, so I can protect her by following my aunt."

Jinyang: "???

Do you know martial arts? Or do you know how to dance? Are you going to seduce him? Seeing this, Empress Song persuaded him: "Sister, since Xianning wants to go, just let Xianning go and send more guards."

Instead of stopping and watching, it would be better to let nature take its course. In fact, she was wondering if she could let Ran'er pass too.

As he said that, he looked at Emperor Chongping with his beautiful eyes like water, and asked: "Your Majesty, are the intruders all Jurchens?"

Emperor Chongping said: "No, Ziyu said that the Jurchens came with less than a thousand people. The rest were pirates who colluded with them."

Queen Song hesitated and said: "

Concubine, I was thinking about letting Ran'er go and help his aunt?"

As soon as he said this, Emperor Chongping looked at Empress Song, thought for a while, and said: "The King of Wei just got married, so there is no need to go there yet.

When Empress Song heard this, she forced a smile and said, "I, my concubine, didn't think carefully."

But he sighed quietly in his heart.
