Chapter 1031 Nan'an: Does this have anything to do with the outstanding people in the south of the Yangtze River?

Nan'an County Palace

"Haha." Yan Ye, Liu Fang and the others sat in the hall, and there was a burst of laughter in the hall.

"Uncle Shi, you didn't see the face of Jia Heng's child. His face was blue and he couldn't say a word." Liu Fang smiled and gloated: "I probably didn't expect it. He's going to the Northwest."

Shi Guangzhu said: "He wants to lead the army to the northwest, and let him take all the credit. How can there be such a good thing?"

Chen Ruiwen nodded and said: "This is just greed. Even when the country was founded, it was not that whoever could fight would take on all the wars."

Ma Shang and the others nodded repeatedly.

Otherwise, among the four kings and eight lords, the ancestors of Wang Shui's family in Beijing are the most able to fight. Could it be that he alone deserves the credit?Isn't Dang Chaotian's family surnamed Shui?

After Yan Ye laughed, he murmured: "Don't be careless, this time is my chance to found the martial arts lineage, so I must feel proud."

Ma Shang sighed and said with emotion: "Uncle, Brother Xiaoyu was wronged by the defeat in this battle, [-] soldiers and horses were made dumplings for others, and even himself died in the battle, a heroic martyrdom."

"My lord heard just now that Xiaoyu is sticking to Haiyan, and there is no way to support him alone. This is a big taboo of military strategists." Yan Ye said with burning eyes, twirling the black beard under his chin.

While everyone was discussing matters, a servant girl said, "My lord, the concubine is here."

Everyone was shocked.

While speaking, an old lady covered in silk and satin, supported by a crowd of hairpin skirts and jackets, came to the hall.

"I've met my mother." Yan Ye stood up and bowed to Concubine Nan'an.

All the Wu Xun present also saluted and said: "I have seen the concubine."

"Ye'er, did you just come back from the palace? Why did I hear that something happened to the Jin family?" Grand Concubine Nan'an frowned slightly, her fair face was full of worry.

As he spoke, with the support of several nuns and Nan'an Princess Luo Shi, he came to the pear blossom wooden chair and sat down.

Yan Ye said: "Reporting to mother, nephew Xiaoyu was defeated by Heshuote Mongolia in the northwest. Thirty thousand soldiers and horses were killed in Haiyan. Unfortunately, the palace was very worried about this matter."

Concubine Nan'an heard the words, sighed, and said: "That child Xiaoyu is a good one, I have seen him a few times, you all sit down."

Yan Ye said: "My son has already asked the Holy One to fight at the court meeting today, and the Holy One has given his permission."

Concubine Nan'an looked concerned, and said, "Ye'er, how sure are you of leading the army to the northwest this time?"

It can be said that compared to Yan Ye who was overjoyed because of leading the army, Concubine Nan'an was still worried that her son would lead the army and follow in the footsteps of the Niu family.

The lineage of the king of Nan'an County is hereditary, and if it is not necessary, he will not go out to fight unless he can go out to fight.

"Going back to mother, my son is [-]% sure!" Yan Ye said with a heroic expression, "The strength of the Han Dynasty's Beijing camp has been fully restored. The battle that took place in Xuanda this spring has proved that as long as our soldiers of the Han Dynasty continue to perform, the military strength will be improved." It is only a matter of time before a reply is made."

Concubine Nan'an heard the words, she frowned and said, "That's true."

Yan Ye said: "Mother, don't worry, this battle will definitely be successful."

"As long as you are sure." Concubine Nan'an nodded and said, sighed softly, and said, "Actually, I have another thing I want to tell you, and that is Yiliu."

Yan Ye frowned and asked, "How is Yiliu?"

At this time, Liu Fang and Shi Guangzhu looked at each other, and quickly cupped their hands and said: "My lord, my concubine, it's already noon, I'll take my leave first."

Then it's other people's family affairs, and they don't listen well.

Yan Ye nodded, called an old servant, and sent Liu Fang and others away.

After a few people left, Grand Concubine Nan'an said to Yan Ye: "It's not that she has never had children, the empress and empress in the palace just want to take a side concubine for King Wei, saying that everyone has been chosen."

Yan Ye frowned, and asked: "What's going on? My son is busy with military affairs, so I don't know if there is another matter. Let her..."

Concubine Nan'an sighed, and said: "The Tian family pays attention to the inheritance of children, so we can't say anything, it's just a pity for Yiliu."

Yan Ye's face was a bit ugly. He originally wanted to bet on King Wei that his daughter's son would become a prince or something in the future. Now that he has been in the family for more than a year, there is not even a movement.

Concubine Nan'an said softly: "I heard that there is a master in gynecology in Jinling City in the south, so I want to let Yiliu go to the old house in Jinling and send someone to look at this doctor."

As four kings and eight princes, the Nan'an County Wang family naturally has an old house in the south of the Yangtze River.

Yan Ye frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "Go to Jinling with Liu?"

Concubine Nan'an said softly: "Otherwise, it's not a problem to continue like this. If there is no child, what will happen to Yiliu in the future? I told you when she was young, don't let her touch those knives, guns and sticks. You must let her grow up. Climb up and down like a boy."

When it came to the end, the tone gradually became complaining.

Yan Ye said: "Mother, it has nothing to do with this."

Concubine Nan'an said: "Anyway, I don't care about her old age. She finally married Queen Yuanzi. Now that she is in this situation, she has to find a way to treat her. The day before yesterday, Concubine Beijing came to talk to me. The girl from the Zhen family There seems to be some movement, there was no movement for a year or two, but after going to Jiangnan, it has been almost half a year now, maybe it is because of the outstanding people in Jiangnan, I don’t know.”

Yan Ye: "..."

Does this have anything to do with the outstanding people in the south of the Yangtze River?

Grand Concubine Nan'an said: "You can't say that, these years the north has been drought year after year, and the northwest is even hotter in summer and colder in winter. This medical book says..."

Yan Ye, one head and two elders, said, "Okay, I will talk to Yi Liu about this matter, and His Royal Highness Wei Wang must agree to it."

Grand Concubine Nan'an saw a smile on her fair face, and said, "That's it."

As he said that, he cast a pair of kind eyes on Yan Ye and asked, "Ye'er, you want to lead the troops to the northwest, so the kid from the Jia family won't go out this time?"

Yan Ye said coldly: "He has just made a great contribution, and the court can't keep using her."

Concubine Nan'an nodded and said: "That's right, how can it be used by one person."

"In the past two years, the Jia family has become so frivolous. Last time I went to Rongguo Mansion, I didn't want Mrs. Rongguo to report illness." Nan'an Concubine raised her brows and said angrily: "I was thinking about that The kid surnamed Jia is in danger of fighting in the north, so I went to say a few words of comfort, and I don’t want to just close the door and disappear.”

Speaking of this matter, Concubine Nan'an was still a little brooding.

In fact, the last time Jia Heng led his troops to the north to fight against the captives and intervene in the Chahar-Mongolia War, Princess Nan'an wanted to go to Rongguo Mansion to meet Jia Mu.

But how smart is Jiamu?All of a sudden, she knew that Concubine Nan'an came here and said some threatening words, so she pleaded not to see her because she was not feeling well.

It is also to hide the ears.

"Ye'er, don't look at the meritorious service that the kid surnamed Jia is doing now. He is far away from the hereditary and irreplaceable title of county king. With the hard work of our three generations, how can it take him three to five years for a young boy to catch up?" of?" Princess Nan'an sneered.

Princess Luo of Nan'an smiled and said: "What mother said is that they are far behind. We are credited with the founding of the country."

Concubine Nan'an smiled and said, "Ye'er, you just have to go well this time, and don't worry too much about family affairs."

The king of Nan'an County nodded his head as he agreed.

Ningguo Mansion

Jia Heng returned to the mansion from the palace, stepped into the study in the back house, met the clear eyes staring behind a mahogany desk, and said softly: "Xiaoxiao."

The girl changed into a blue and white samurai outfit, her figure was exquisite and graceful, and there was a clear and bright charm between her eyebrows and eyes.

Chen Ling stood up, a little embarrassed by the unscrupulous gaze, and asked in a clear voice: "You're back, what did the palace say?"

Jia Heng pondered and said: "The war has been decided. The king of Nan'an County is the general who conquers the west, and he will lead [-] troops to Xining to unify the troops of Gansu, Ningxia, and Xining to pacify Qinghai and Mongolia."

Chen Xiao pondered for a moment, then said: "It's not surprising, the imperial court cannot be dominated by one family, whether it's political affairs or military affairs."

Jia Heng sighed, and said: "If the [-] troops in the Beijing camp are defeated, my strength will be seriously injured. Nan'an and others still want to take the Hongyi Cannon and go to Qinghai. Yue Tuo went to Jurchen, and the consequences would be disastrous."

When he came back, he was thinking about this matter, Hongyi Cannon must not be taken away by Nan'an County King.

But the deepest thing in the emperor's heart is that he can't delegate all military affairs to one person. He can ask for a battle in the early stage, but the more he talks later, the emperor will think about it no matter how trusting he is:

You, Jia Ziyu, do you want to seize power?

Therefore, I could only click until now.

Chen Xiao thought for a while, thinking welled up in her clear eyes, walked closer, and said, "It may not be a total defeat, the Hongyi cannon is inconvenient to operate, but it may not be useful, you just stop it."

Jia Heng took the tea cup, nodded and said: "Because the Hongyi cannon needs repairs and is inconvenient for transportation, it will no longer be taken away by Nan'an and others."

Chen Xiaodao: "They are eager to make meritorious deeds, and they may not have time to wait, but sooner or later the Jurchens will send people to learn skills from the sea."

"It's a little later." Jia Heng said softly, took the girl's plain hand, and started with the cold and soft icy muscle and jade bone, sat Chen Xiao in his arms, and said: "Let's not mention this for now. We need to prepare the boat to go to the south of the Yangtze River, and we will leave in a few days, so pack up and we will go there together."

After so long a trip to the south of the Yangtze River, it's time to leave.

Chen Xiao said: "Are Xianning and Chanyue still in the past?"

Jia Heng made a facelift and said calmly: "We all go there together, and we will live in Ningguo Mansion in Jinling from now on."

Chen Xiao frowned slightly, with a hint of complexity in her clear eyes, and murmured: "She's about to give birth soon."

This naturally refers to Princess Jinyang.

"It's estimated to be September, a few months away." Jia Heng said softly with an unnatural look on his face.

Chen Xiao snorted coldly, and said, "There are still two mothers in Jinling."

Jia Heng gently caressed the girl's fruit-laden pear again, and leaned into the girl's ear and whispered: "Why don't you, Xiaoxiao, give birth to one too."

Chen Xiao: "???"

As soon as this matter was mentioned, she felt a little annoyed. The man clearly did it on purpose the day before yesterday, because he wanted to give her a child.

Although she also wanted a child to inherit from her father.

The two rubbed each other's ears for a while, and a servant girl said outside: "Master, Uncle Zhongqin and General Cai, Master Song, Fan Jishi, please go to the mansion to see you."

Jia Heng said: "Xiaoxiao, I'll go and have a look."

Apparently Xie Zaiyi, Cai Quan and the others had already heard the news that the King of Nan'an was going to lead troops to march westward, so they came to look for him in a hurry.

"I'll go there with you." Chen Ling pursed her pink lips, and gently straightened the messy skirt.

Jia Heng nodded, and then headed towards the study outside the front yard.

In the front yard, in the study—

Xie Zaiyi, Cai Quan, Dong Qian, Song Yuan, and Fan Yi were all sitting on pear wood chairs, sipping tea and waiting. Seeing Jia Heng coming, he got up quickly and said: "I have seen the Duke."

Jia Heng waved his hand and said, "Okay, there's no need to be polite, let's all sit down."

Xie Zaiyi, Cai Quan and others thanked each other, and then sat down again.

Jia Heng picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea, suppressed the sweetness between his teeth and cheeks, and said: "I think you have heard what the court discussed."

Xie Zaiyi frowned and said: "Commander Jie, do you really want the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp to be taken away by the founding heroes of Nan'an? These are the soldiers and horses we have worked hard to train."

Jia Heng pondered and said: "This is an order from the palace. We can only obey the Holy Emperor's decree. We have just made meritorious deeds, and the civil servants in the court are worried that it will be difficult to control them."

Xie Zaiyi was shocked when he heard this.

Jia Heng pondered for a moment, looked at the dignified people, and said: "However, the soldiers and horses led last time need to be repaired, so they are not included in the expedition. In addition, the Hongyi cannons must try their best to stay in the capital. hand."

Cai Quandao: "What Commander Jie said is true. This Hongyi cannon is extremely powerful. If it falls into the hands of Jurchen and is used to attack our big city of Seoul, it will be even more difficult for our army to win with artillery."

Fan Yi's eyes flickered, and her mind moved slightly.

Since the Hongyi cannon is so powerful, if a small number of elite troops bombard Anshun Gate and open the palace ban...

Jia Heng said: "Besides, I will go to Jiangnan to preside over the new policy some day, to clear up the pirates for the general opening of the customs, and entrust the affairs of Beijing to Mr. Song, Mr. Fan and the two generals Xie Cai to manage the Beijing camp for training matter."

This time he went to the south of the Yangtze River to destroy the pirates mainly to train the young generals of the Jia family. Xie Cai and Xie Cai will not take them with them for now. The speed of their promotion is fast enough.

Xie Zaiyi, Cai Quan, Song Yuan, and Fan Yi cupped their hands and said, "Duke Wei, don't worry, we will definitely fulfill our duties."

Chen Xiao looked at the few people in charge, and the deep eyes under the willow eyebrows flickered with a faint light.

Jia Heng's eyes wandered over the crowd, and finally fell on Dong Qian's face, and said: "Cousin, this trip to the south of the Yangtze River, cousin will come with me, and arrange a boat with Jinyi Mansion in the next few days."

Dong Qian was overjoyed when he heard the words, cupped his hands and said, "Yes."

"Okay, let's go get ready." Jia Heng nodded and said.

After several people were ordered to leave, Jia Heng looked at Chen Xiao, whose beautiful face was thoughtful, walked closer, waved his hand in front of Chen Xiao's eyes, and asked with a smile: "What are you thinking about? Are you so lost in thought?"

Xiaoxiao wouldn't have already thought about the situation of adding a yellow robe to her body, right?

"It's nothing." Chen Xiao turned around, his eyes averted for a moment, and his face suddenly turned frosty again.

Jia Heng nodded and said, "Okay, let's go back to the Grand View Garden."

He also wanted to revisit the wedding ceremony with Xiaoxiao.

Chen Xiao caught the fire of lust in the young man's eyes, snorted coldly, and reprimanded: "If you don't go, it's broad daylight, and you won't be able to have a decent career."

Jia Heng: "..."

Is Xiaoxiao still taking control of this?When it was urgent, he insisted that Xiaoxiao beg him on his own initiative.

With a thought in mind, Jia Heng leaned close to the girl's ear and said softly: "Then wait until evening, and you change into the night clothes you went to Ci'en Temple that day."

He has missed that heroine suit for a long time.

Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood, her brows and eyes as clear and beautiful as iceberg snow lotus said in embarrassment: "You...you have been spoiled by Xianning."

"Then I'll go first." Jia Heng smiled and said.

While speaking, he got up and went to the Grand View Garden, planning to find the two sisters Lanxi. Before leaving, the king of Chu invited him to take Zhenlan and Zhenxi to the palace as guests.

……

……

Grand View Garden, Qichiyuan

In the afternoon, the cool summer breeze blows on the sycamore trees in the courtyard, rustling the branches and leaves, making the Grand View Garden more and more quiet and unspeakable.

Zhen Lan is looking at a thin volume boredly, this book is the new chapter of Three Kingdoms written by Jia Heng in the past two days.

The girl wore a blue dress, combed her hair with airy bangs, the pearls and hairpins in her hair kept shaking, and that face with a bit of meanness, I don't know if it was because of her previous experience with Jia Heng. Because of the skin-to-skin relationship, it becomes more and more glamorous.

Zhen Xi took a painting in his hand, and asked softly: "Sister Lan, do you think this painting I drew looks like it?"

Zhen Lan put down a stack of manuscripts, turned her eyes to look at the painting, and saw a young man with heroic brows and eyes, looking forward to the sky, painted on the scroll.

Not Jia Heng, or who?

Zhen Lan looked at it for a moment, and said with a smile in her narrow and clear phoenix eyes: "My sister's painting is very similar, but Brother Heng's eyes are brighter and sharper."

Zhen Xi pursed her pink lips, and said softly: "I said this charm is not quite right, then I'll just change it when I go back. Speaking of which, Big Brother Heng hasn't been here for a few days."

Zhen Lan suddenly said in a low tone: "I'm not busy with my wedding, how can I take care of my family? Now it's the newlyweds, they are like glue."

When mentioning the big wedding not long ago, the depths of the girl's bright eyes were somewhat dim, and her mind fluctuated.

"She is both a princess and a princess, so we are far behind." Zhen Lan said with a self-deprecating smile.

Ever since she had skin-to-skin relationship with Jia Heng, Zhen Lan has regarded Jia Heng as her own man, with a strong personality, and she wished Jia Heng would circle around her every day.

Under Zhen Xi's curved eyebrows, she could see the delicate beauty in her aura-like eyes, and said: "Sister, didn't Brother Heng come back two days ago? I saw that Princess Qinghe went to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, so I inquired privately. Wait, Brother Heng went to Sister Qin’s room yesterday.”

Zhen Lan couldn't help laughing and said, "My sister went to inquire about it, and I said, why did you draw a portrait all of a sudden, why are you sleeping with the portrait at night?"

Although sister Xi'er didn't say it, she was still thinking about the man who hugged and kissed her and her sister a few days ago, and also asked her and her sister to do such intimate things as a couple.

"Sister Lan, who is going to sleep holding the portrait." Zhen Xi's cheeks were flushed with embarrassment, and his aura-like eyes were full of anger.

Zhen Lan chuckled and said, "Then you don't want to sleep in your arms, give it to me, I'll sleep in your arms at night."

While the two sisters were chatting and laughing, the maid outside said: "Miss Lan, Miss Xi, Master Heng is here."
