Chapter 144 Jia Heng entered the Rongguo Mansion at night
The night is low and the lights are on.
Under Dai Quan's hand, Jia Heng carried the lantern one after the other, walked out of the palace gate, and walked to a hidden place at the corner of the palace. Jia Heng paused, turned around, and said in a low voice: "Eunuch Dai , can you take a step to speak."
Dai Quan's expression froze for a moment. Seeing the young man's eyes shining brightly, he seemed to have something else to do. He waved his hand and motioned for the inner eunuchs who were following behind him to retreat to the distance.
The two walked to a secluded place.
Jia Heng laughed and said, "I have troubled my father-in-law to deliver the decree over and over again."
In a blink of an eye, he stuffed the exchanged ten thousand taels of bank notes into Dai Quan's hands.
Dai Quan's complexion changed, he felt a thick stack of bank notes, the rest of them glanced at them, they were all in large denominations, knowing that he had earned a lot of money, a prosperous smile appeared on his face, and said: "Jia Ziyu, what is this... ...how is this so embarrassing?"
"Before I was taken care of by my father-in-law, it should be." Jia Heng said softly.
Hearing this, Dai Quan understood what he was taking care of before, but he was asking to take care of him later, so he just smiled and said: "The miscellaneous families are all acting under the emperor's order, Ziyu is too polite."
"Eunuch is polite." Jia Heng said.
Dai Quan smiled. Seeing Jia Heng's serious expression suddenly, his heart moved, and said: "Could it be that Zi Yu has something to ask? If there is nothing, the miscellaneous family will be uncomfortable."
Eunuch Dai's conduct seems to be okay. After receiving the money, he began to observe the words and demeanor to solve the problem.
But in fact, it was only part of the reason, just now when the eunuch saw Jia Heng being comforted by the emperor and several cabinet ministers, he already felt a little bit of friendship.
Jia Heng nodded and said, "To tell you the truth, my father-in-law, Jia Heng actually has something else to ask."
If he just sold Dai Quan, he wouldn't sell 1 taels all at once.
Dai Quan was surprised, and said with a smile: "Ziyu, please tell me, if the miscellaneous family can do it, I will never refuse."
If you can do it, do it yourself, if you can't, don't make it difficult for others.
Jia Heng understood this and didn't take it seriously. He raised his eyes and looked at the lights of the palace in the distance, and said in a clear voice: "I heard that the eldest daughter of my master Jia Zuzheng has entered the palace as a female historian?"
Dai Quan was stunned when he heard this, and said with a light smile, "Now the empress is serving as a female official, but your Jia family wants to seek wealth from your relatives, so you followed other people's paths. Why, Ziyu now wants to follow the miscellaneous family's path?"
Secretly thought, this young man is really thoughtful, without him, no matter how much money Lao Xia collected, it would be useless.
Because the young man in brocade clothes was against the moonlight, half of his face was obscured in the darkness, his only eyes were as bright as stars, and after a while, he said, "I want to ask my father-in-law for a favor."
"But let His Majesty be fortunate to her?" Dai Quan said with a smile.
If it is for the nobles of the country's relatives, the little money just now will not be able to be sold.
But seeing the boy opposite shook his head, Zhan Ran's eyes showed a firmness.
"I hope that my father-in-law will not allow her to be gracious. If possible, I will send her out. My son from Jia's family has fame and fortune, and he can pick up a three-foot sword to obtain wealth. Why use a woman to seek wealth?"
Dai Quan: "..."
Dai Quan was shocked beyond words.
Good guy, it's unbelievable, this Jia Ziyu simply made him amazed.
How can there be such a person in the world?
Don't seek the wealth of the country's relatives...
Looking at Dai Quan's ever-changing face, Jia Heng's face was calm, and he sighed softly in his heart.
Of course he will not seek the wealth of the country.
If Yuan Chun was proclaimed a virtuous concubine, Jia's mansion could be said to be full of fire and flowers, but it has something to do with him...?
At that time, don't even think about it, some men and women with hideous faces in the West Mansion have not yet raised their tails to the sky, and they are becoming more and more domineering and difficult to control.
What's more, if he leads the army in the future, once he has made great achievements, and then he is a foreign relative, he will benefit first and then harm.
The benefits of co-authorship are gone, so let him bear all the risks?
It just doesn't make sense.
Jia Heng's eyes were deep, and he thought in his heart, "Besides, even Yuan Chun himself can't say where he is going to see people, and he is crying like a tearful person. I think he is not happy in his heart. If this is the case, um, the beauty of a gentleman, then don't add virtue. Concubine, it's really not worth it to use youth and beauty for the Jia family's men who only know how to enjoy, but have no courage. dear."
He was a "wicked person" who had to do bad things once, so he tried his best to mess up the matter.
Dai Quan looked at Jia Heng with complicated eyes. This surly eunuch even gave birth to a wave of admiration, and said: "Zi Yu has lofty aspirations, and the miscellaneous family admires him."
Jia Heng said: "Thank you, father-in-law, please take more care of him."
After finalizing the matter of Yuanchun, Jia Heng also left the palace gate and was about to ride away when he saw a burly general with a rough face, leading a group of armored soldiers behind him.
"Feng Shibo, why are you here?" Jia Heng looked at Feng Tang, who was wearing armor and sitting upright on the horse, and said with a surprised expression, got off the horse, and bowed his hands in salute.
It was none other than General Feng Tang.
Feng Tang said with a smile: "It's you boy, today I happen to be imprisoned by the old guard, why, this is just coming back from the face of the saint?"
In the past few days, he has also heard about the deeds of the young man in front of him, especially just after eating at home, he also heard from his son that Jia Heng succeeded in suppressing the bandits, went straight to the bandit's nest, won a complete victory, and won a big prize .
"Uncle Shi, I just met the Holy One and the elders." Jia Heng said with a smile.
Feng Tang smiled and said: "Okay, the old man heard about the battle against bandits in Cuihua Mountain. He is so young, he is amazing, and has the demeanor of your Ningguo ancestor Dai Huagong."
"Don't dare to be praised by the uncle." Jia Heng said with a smile.
Feng Tang nodded, and said: "After two days, you have to come to my house when you are free. Our father and I are having a good chat. Now this old man will be imprisoned by the guard, so we can't neglect it."
Jia Heng cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Then uncle, you are busy."
Watching Feng Tangzhuan leave with a group of imperial troops, Jia Heng also took a deep breath, got on his horse, and headed towards Jia's mansion.
It's just that when I arrived at Ningrong Street, I was about to drive away to the East Mansion, when I suddenly looked up, I saw a group of servants from the West Mansion, holding lanterns at the end of Ningrong Street, and saw Jia Heng coming on horseback from a distance. The boys came making a noise.
The lights are bright, and the figures are flickering.
"Master Heng is back."
"It's Uncle Heng, hurry up and report to the old lady."
The boy shouted.
"Master Heng, the old lady said to go to the West Mansion." At this time, several lanterns slid over, and the nuns and maids gathered together, surrounded by several women and maids, one of them was a beautiful woman in a pomegranate skirt, It was Ping'er, with a smile on her face, and said softly: "Master Heng, the old lady has set up a meal in the Rongqing hall, and has been waiting for him, ready to celebrate his victory and return."
Jia Heng frowned, most of the time he went to Xifu because he had something to ask, but he didn't want to go.
Seeing Jia Heng's hesitation, Ping'er sighed inwardly, and a smile appeared on Mingli's face, holding the lantern, he was so close to the horse, and said: "Oh, Mr. Heng, don't be stupefied, Mr. The wife has come to urge several waves, saying that the uncle must go to the banquet, saying that it is to clean up the dust for Uncle Heng."
It was not easy for the Jia family to find someone, and Jia's mother struggled for a moment, then decided to make a plan to win over, and sent someone to invite Jia Heng to Rongqing Hall for dinner.
And Jia Mu has another consideration, that is, the rumors that Jia Heng will not come back have spread in the mansion these days, if this thunder is not arranged in advance, there may be many twists and turns.
Of course, Mother Jia actually wanted to ask Jia Heng how he broke the bandits. When she was Rong Guo's daughter-in-law, she heard Daishan win one battle after another.
When people are old, they always like to talk about the old days.
Jia Heng looked calm, thought for a while, and said: "You send someone to inform my wife."
Ping'er smiled sweetly and said, "This is what should be done."
Regardless of the travel and dust on his body, Jia Heng followed Ping'er and headed towards the West Mansion, got off his horse, and headed for Rongqingtang.
Honor Hall——
The lights were brightly lit, the crowds were crowded, and the maids and mothers-in-law stood around with their hands down, not daring to breathe.
Jia Mu, Feng Wan and Bao Dai are all there, and Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang are also drinking tea.
As for Jia Amnesty and Mrs. Xing, they had already left on the pretext of having something to do.
Jia Mu smiled and said: "This Brother Heng is a man who can make troubles. That day in Rongqing Hall, I thought he had the spirit and spirit of the old man in the East Mansion."
Sister Feng also answered with a smile on the side, "At the beginning, the ancestor was called to recognize heroes with eyesight, so he gave him Qingwen from the house."
Mother Jia sighed inwardly.
If she doesn't smooth out Brother Heng's anger, later on...
Home and everything are prosperous.
Jia Zheng got up and said, "Zi Yu guesses that he has seen the Holy Spirit now, why hasn't he come back?"
As he spoke, he walked out, stood under the eaves with his hands behind his back, looked at the lights in the distance, and listened to the movement.
Jia Mu said: "Yuanyang, go and see if the dishes are cold. If they are cold, go and heat them up."
In fact, they had already had dinner in the middle of the afternoon, so everyone sat around, and they didn't think they were hungry or thirsty.
"Old lady, it was reheated by Liu's sister-in-law just now." Yuanyang said with a light smile.
Jia Mu nodded at Yuanyang, then looked at Baoyu, her face became more and more kind, and she said with a smile: "You brothers and sisters will see you later. He is the head of the patriarch, after all, he is different from others. Besides, he is married again. There are no such taboos."
Baoyu nodded and said: "What the ancestor said is that I have admired this big brother Heng for a long time."
He also had some doubts in his heart, one was about the Linjiang Immortal's Ci, the other was Ci Jue Biao, and the third was Grandma Heng from Dongfu.
If you don't seek fame and wealth, why do you say that you don't show respect to your ancestors and take fame for yourself?
Such a character of pure gold and jade, why must he roll in the field of fame and fortune?Do you want to be that country's thief?
There is one more thing, I have to ask in private, is that Grandma Heng really like what some maids and mothers-in-law in the East Mansion said, she has the face of sinking fish and wild goose, and the face of closed moon and shameful flowers?
Isn't this an exaggeration in ancient books?
Tanchun picked up the teacup on the side, slightly closed her pink lips, took a sip of the tea, raised her bright and beautiful face, Yingxiu frowned slightly, and fixedly looked out the door.
Daiyu glanced aside, just holding a handkerchief and pursing her lips into a smile.
Not only Tanchun, but Sister Feng and Li Wan also had complicated eyes, looking outside and listening to the movement in the distance.
And at this moment, Mammy's voice came from outside the courtyard, with a bit of surprise: "Old lady, master, madam, Master Heng is here."
In Rongqing Hall, the atmosphere that was originally a little quiet or even dull, seemed to be alive and lively as if the play button had been pressed.
Jia Mu said anxiously, "Quickly, let him in."
At that time, Jia Zheng had already walked under the eaves of the corridor, looking at the young man in brocade clothes coming from the super mobile corridor with a lantern, his elegant face showed excitement, he walked a few steps quickly, and called out: "Ziyu... "
Jia Heng heard the call, looked up, nodded at Jia Zheng, cupped his hands and said, "Master Zheng."
At this time, Jia Zheng stepped forward and said with a smile: "The old lady is waiting in the room, come in quickly."
Jia Heng nodded slightly, and followed Jia Zheng into the Rongqing Hall.
The young man in brocade clothes stepped on the wool carpeted floor with his official boots, falling silently. In less than a month, this was the fourth time he had entered the Rongguo Mansion.
But that young man who held his sword and held his head up and argued with reason, although it was daytime, looked around, his eyes were as black as ink.
Today, however, the young man in brocade clothes and fine clothes looked dull and silent. Although it was night, as far as he could see, the head-on lights were brilliant.
This kind of trance feeling of interlacing time and space fainted round and round in Jia Heng's heart lake.
Jia Heng dispelled some emotions in his heart, walked around a mahogany glass hibiscus screen, entered the hall, rushed to the first place and saluted Jia Mu, "Heng, I have seen the old lady."
At this moment, Jia Mu stood up with the support of the mandarin ducks, staring blankly at the young man with a calm face, his old face was full of complex expressions, her lips moved, and she said, "Brother Heng, sit down, sit down, you haven't eaten yet, hurry up sit."
Sister Feng laughed and joked, "The old lady was just saying, don't let the food get cold, it's been heated twice."
In Rongqing hall, there was a burst of good-natured laughter.
Jia Heng looked at this "warm" scene of laughter and laughter. If he hadn't lost his memory, he would have been moved by Jia's mother's sincere words like "Have you not eaten, Ruzhen? The food in the kitchen is hot." Nose sour, tears filled eyes.
But, unfortunately, he didn't. There was no fluctuation in his heart, and he didn't want to laugh.
Treat it as usual.
Jia Heng nodded to Jia Mu, sat down on the nanmu chair beside the round table, straightened his official uniform, and said calmly: "Fang has been busy in the world, and he came back from the palace. He really hasn't eaten. Mrs. Lao is very concerned about it."
In the distance, Daiyu pouted at Tanchun, as if to say, this Uncle Heng has a very cold temper, making it difficult to get close to him.
Tanchun looked at Jia Heng without moving his eyes for a moment.
Girls' feelings are always poetry, and sometimes it's hard to say that it's admiration and love, but a kind of youthful thought.
But the precocious Daiyu is always joking, which makes Tanchun look a little strange.
In fact, not only Tanchun, but all Rong Qingtang's eyes were fixed on Jia Heng's face. However, the young man's face was sharp and stern, his eyes were as sharp and bright as before, but he was not overbearing.
Seeing this, Mother Jia smiled softly, sighed in her heart, pointed to Baoyu beside her, and said with a smile, "Brother Heng, these are some brothers and sisters in the West Mansion. You are the patriarch of the Jia clan, so you can't deny it." , this is Baoyu, the root of my evil here..."
As he spoke, he just laughed to himself.
Sister Feng on the side had a smile on her beautiful and familiar face, and said, "My ancestor, don't say that, Baoyu is old now and knows how to read, just now I saw him holding the book Three Kingdoms... …I’ve been watching it all the time, I forgot to eat, and in two years’ time I’ll be a little older, and I’ll be able to make contributions outside like Uncle Heng.”
Jia Zheng: "..."
Mrs. Wang frowned, and doubts welled up in her heart. She had some doubts, was she, the niece who spoke and acted like a niece, mocking Baoyu?
Step on a bunch of one?
But the following words are not very similar.
That's right, Baoyu is still young, and when he gets older, he may not be able to be like his uncle, and everyone says that his nephew is like an uncle.
On this side, Jia Heng nodded at Jia Mu and Feng Wan, just looking at Baoyu... Daiyu beside him.
The big face is like the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Last time he entered the Rongqing Hall, he glanced at it from a distance, and he saw it. The big round face suddenly occupied the center of his field of vision, and he could see it clearly with his outstanding eyesight.
On the contrary, Daiyu likes to cover her face with a handkerchief all day long, so she doesn't see it.
