Chapter 427 This Prince Teng is making claims again!

The next day, early in the morning, Jia Heng went to the Beijing camp as usual, and at noon, he reported the adjustment of the Jinyi Mansion's duties to Emperor Chongping.

Unlike other government offices, Jinyi Mansion is directly under the emperor, and the adjustment of personnel is all decided by the emperor.

In the inner study room of Daming Palace, Emperor Chongping read the memorabilia handed over by Jia Heng, and without looking up, he asked, "Zi Yu, do you want to adjust the duties of the Jinyi Mansion?"

Jia Heng said: "Your Majesty, in the "Strategy for Pinglu", the former ministers have sparsely explained the way of using the time. If you want to find out the details of the enemy's territory, you can't do without the support of the Jinyi Mansion. Reorganize the structure to deal with the enemy."

Emperor Chongping flipped through the memorials and saw that the five schools in the left, right, front and back were not included in the adjustment, so he didn't speak for a while, thought for a moment, looked up at the bowed young man, his eyes couldn't hide his admiration, and said: "Zi Yu It is not unreasonable to say that the original six and two town governors are too bloated, and their responsibilities are not clear. In order to benefit the war against the captives, it is time to adjust personnel and re-evaluate powers."

Jia Heng arched his hands, and said loudly: "My sage, my sage."

My heart was also relieved.

The Jinyi Mansion is related to the safety of the imperial power, and the emperor is very suspicious. He doesn't want Emperor Chongping to have even the slightest thought that he might threaten the imperial power.

If this matter is not communicated in place in advance, if you don't realize it now, it may become a thorn in the future.

Just as Princess Jinyang vaguely reminded yesterday, "Be cautious from now on, otherwise, I will save it for you."

Emperor Chongping pondered and said: "Let's settle this matter like this. Now that you are in charge of the affairs of the Jinyi Mansion, Yu Fuwei has the right to self-determination in the personnel affairs. Old Li Ge in the Beiping Mansion must also deal with it."

As he said that, he brought up Zhubi and reviewed it in Jia Heng's memorial, and basically agreed to Jia Heng's request, including the promotion of Jinyi Qianhu Qulang, and his advice as the governor of Beizhen Fusi. In charge of the affairs of the Jinyi Mansion".

The appointment and dismissal of the six thousand households can also be regarded as adjustments through office, allowing Jia Heng to make a decision with one word.

As for the personnel affairs of the five thousand households, Emperor Chongping has always directly intervened, and he can leapfrog command at any time. This is the reliance to ensure that Jinyi Mansion can always be in the hands of the emperor.

Jia Heng cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Lord Long En."

Some things, even if you really want to, you can't. If you want to keep everything in your hands, it's just a way to die.

As long as he controls and infiltrates the Six Great Thousand Households day by day by borrowing from the enemy, he will one day develop into a larger intelligence force than the original Five Great Thousand Households.

Emperor Chongping put down the memorabilia and dried it, then handed it to Dai Quan who was beside him, and asked: "The day before yesterday, I asked you to recommend the military pilot, is there anyone for it?"

Jia Heng pondered and said: "One of my ministers recommended me, but I don't want to avoid my relatives."

Emperor Chongping laughed and said, "If you say that, I'm curious."

The person in front of me can even send his in-laws to Dali Temple, and I don't know who it is that can make him say that he should not avoid his relatives.

"I recommended Zhongjinghou Shi Ding, who once followed the Xining County King in the northwest and was promoted to a noble for his meritorious service. I secretly thought that the military aircraft department should be served by a minister who knows soldiers. Zhongjinghou knows military affairs and is good at tactics."

Then, he took out another memorial from his sleeve and handed it up.

Originally, it was to see Emperor Chongping's face, if the adjustment of Jinyi Mansion's duties was not smooth, the matter would be postponed.

Emperor Chongping thought about it, and said, "Marquis Zhongjing? The younger brother of Marquis Baoling?"

"The holy lesson." Jia Heng said.

Emperor Chongping took the memorial presented by Dai Quan and read it.

It is said to be a memorial, but it is actually an analysis of Shi Ding's resume, mainly a comment on his military achievements in the Northwest.

Jia Heng said again: "Marquis Shi is a military honor of the country, and he has also experienced wars. If he can walk in the military plane, at least he will not talk about military affairs on paper and delay the military plane."

Emperor Chongping put down the memorandum, and said: "Marquis Baoling is old and strong, not inferior to the past. I talked to me the day before yesterday, and I will go to the northwest with the king of Nan'an County to investigate the frontier. I have agreed. In the northwest, the king of Xining County has not been healthy for the past two years. That's great, the northwestern Hus also have signs of instability."

Jia Heng frowned and said, "He is the king of Xining County?"

The king of Xining County can be regarded as a figure like a war god of the Han Dynasty. He has lived in the northwest for a long time, and he is old and strong. If something happens, the northwest is bound to be turbulent, which may affect the northern captives.

Emperor Chongping sighed: "It is also because of the Spring and Autumn Period that the old illness in the early years relapsed. The day before yesterday, I sent an imperial physician from the Imperial Hospital to the northwest for diagnosis and treatment."

Jia Heng secretly wrote down this matter.

Emperor Chongping said: "Since it was recommended by Ziyu, I will send Shi Ding as the driver of the military aircraft to walk in the military aircraft."

Jia Heng quickly suppressed his worries about the Northwest, and thanked him.

Emperor Chongping asked again: "Minister of Military Aircraft can recommend two people as officers, how about one more?"

Jia Hengdao: "I previously recommended Si Hang Min, an official of the Ministry of War, who was selected by the Ministry of War. This person has been recommended by Li Dashi. Now I recommend Shi Shu, a member of the official department. I have worked with this member for a short time. This member is proficient in military affairs. Heavy and capable, it can be used as a military aircraft to support military affairs."

He really didn't have many suitable candidates to recommend.

Generally speaking, the sources of military aircraft drivers are very diverse. Below the fifth rank, one is a secretary in the cabinet, the other is a doctor of the Six Departments or Yuanwai Lang, and there are even martial arts officers who know military affairs.

Emperor Chongping pondered for a moment, and said noncommittally: "Shi Shu, I have heard about this person."

Jia Heng said: "Your Majesty, there is no order for the officers of the Military Aircraft Department. If they are not suitable, they can be reassigned."

This is the characteristic of the Military Aircraft Department. If the military aircraft driver is not suitable, then he will be dispatched.

Emperor Chongping nodded and said, "What Ziyu said is true."

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, this military aircraft office is quite cheap, he can bypass the cabinet and directly select the officials he likes, give them assignments, and they can also be taken down at any time.

Looking at the young man again, he couldn't help secretly praising Wang Zuozhi again.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late. If there is nothing else to do, I will retire." Jia Heng bowed his hands and resigned.

Emperor Chongping said: "I will not leave you a meal. After the Lantern Festival, when the court will be held, there will be an edict issued."

Naturally, he sent Jia Heng and Yiganren and other military ministers to announce the imperial edict to the subjects so that they could be known both at home and abroad.

Jia Heng bid farewell to Emperor Chongping, left the Daming Palace, walked down the covered bridge slowly, and walked on the royal road with high palace walls and vermilion eaves.

As soon as he approached the gate of the palace, he saw a glazed carriage with eight treasure hairpins coming, and there were internal eunuchs and maids in front, back, left, and right, holding a guard of honor.

Jia Heng thought it was the imperial concubine who was going out, so she hurriedly moved aside the road to get out of the way.

"Mr. Jia?"

However, there was a pleasant voice as clear as water droplets from a jade chime.

The curtains of the carriage rumbled by beside him were suddenly thrown open, but there was a face with a clear complexion, crescent eyebrows and phoenix eyes, which was none other than Princess Xianning.

Jia Heng raised his eyes, looked intently, and said with a smile, "So it's His Highness Xianning."

Princess Xianning met that smile, but her mind couldn't help shaking. She picked up the carriage under the curtain, stood still, looked at the young man opposite, and said in a clear voice, "Sir, have you just met your father?"

Jia Heng nodded, looked at the girl in a green dress, and asked, "Come here from Daming Palace, where is Your Highness? Why didn't you see the little princess?"

Princess Xianning smiled lightly, her demeanor was as cold as ice, but she smiled suddenly and brightly, just like the Cangshan mountain covered with snow, and the bright candle in the sky. Yue is at home right now. By the way, I already have the second volume of Mr. Three Kingdoms."

Jia Heng smiled and said: "There are two chapters, and the second book will be completed. Your Highness, wait a few days, and you will be able to read the complete manuscript."

Under Princess Xianning's willow leaf slender eyebrows, her bright eyes are shining brightly, but there is a slight smile on her beautiful face, and she said: "I am not a person who is impatient, but I don't even want to talk about the Three Kingdoms script these days." waited."

Jia Heng was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, the princess, is overrated."

Princess Xianning also has a few differences when she praises others. If she can't wait, she can't wait. If she insists on translating, what's the matter?

Princess Xianning said: "It's just this script, there are quite a few things I don't understand, and I want to ask you, if you have time, you might as well go out of the palace city and find a place to have lunch together and talk while eating?"

In the palace garden, there are too many people, and it is inconvenient to talk, so it is better to be more comfortable outside.

Jia Heng raised his eyes and looked at the graceful girl who was practicing dancing, she thought for a while, nodded and said: "That's fine, otherwise, it's fine if you don't want to go to the eldest princess's house."

Yesterday I made an appointment to go to Li'er's mansion, but today the little princess is here, so I can't get things done, so let's take Princess Xianning with me to chat for a while, it's not considered a broken appointment.

"Then according to what you say." Princess Xianning responded readily, and walked to the side of the female officer who called Zhixia, and said in a low voice: "You go back and tell the concubine mother that I have gone to the aunt's house, maybe tonight I won't go back."

"Your Highness, we just came from the eldest princess's mansion..." Zhixia said hesitantly, but saw a faint flash of coldness in Princess Xianning's phoenix eyes under her willow-leaf slender eyebrows, and quickly stopped speaking.

Princess Xianning's phoenix eyes were fixed, she turned around, walked towards Jia Heng, and said, "Sir, let's go together."

Jia Heng didn't say much, and followed Princess Xianning out of the palace gate.

Princess Xianning was half explaining, half talking: "In the afternoon, I wanted to go to brother Wei Wang with Chanyue to see how his mansion is doing, but Chanyue didn't want to go alone. There is no point in going, so I will go back to the palace."

Jia Heng asked: "His Royal Highness King Wei has left the palace to live?"

Princess Xianning said: "The mansion is about to be expanded, but it's not liveable yet. Brother Wei Wang has now bought a mansion near the Bingma Division in Wucheng, so that he can handle official business in the Si Ya. Don't you know, sir?"

Jia Heng shook his head and said: "I really don't know about this matter, but it is really admirable that King Wei stays in public all night."

Although he felt that King Wei might be most popular in 3 minutes, he could only pick some compliments in front of his sister.

While the two were talking, Princess Xianning said again: "The queen mother has already chosen the princess for Brother Wei."

In fact, she took the initiative to say this, and she was also helping Brother Wei from the side.

Jia Heng was silent for a while, and asked: "Is there any one settled?"

Princess Xianning said: "It's not yet decided, but the queen mother has taken a fancy to several noble daughters, and there are a few of them, including the Wang's family of Nan'an County, the Wang's family of Xining County, the daughter of Uncle Jinxiang, and the daughter of the Marquis of Pingyuan. Daughter, as well as the daughter of Liu Yuzhong, the daughter of Guozijian Jijiu, Zhou Hanlin's daughter, by the way, and the Wang family, the family of the husband's in-laws."

"Which royal family?" Jia Heng asked with a frown.

Princess Xianning glanced at the boy in surprise, and said, "It's Prince Teng's family."

Jia Heng's complexion was gloomy, and he fell silent for a while.

This Wang Ziteng is making his own claims again!

The establishment of Concubine Wei is no small matter, because it is related to the future seizure of the heir, so what if Wang Ziteng's move is regarded as the support of Jia Shiwang and Xue Si's family?

What's even more hateful is that Wang Ziteng didn't ventilate beforehand.

But, didn't Wang Ziteng have contact with the King of Chu before?But now the granddaughter is waiting to be elected to the king of Wei?

Could it be that he went to the doctor in a hurry?

"It should be multi-line betting, which is also the basic operation of the big family." Jia Heng felt cold in his heart.

Because, if he speaks out against this matter, he might offend Empress Song. What's going on, why do you look down on my family?

Therefore, it can only be side-by-side.

In fact, Wang Ziteng had tested the king of Chu before, but although the king of Chu wanted to win over Wang Ziteng, an old general, he would not accept a 13-year-old girl as his side concubine, the price would be too high , I'm afraid there will be trouble at home.

Then, Wang Ziteng thought that the king of Wei, who had gone to the Wucheng Bingmasi, might be expected to be a great treasure in the future, so he asked Wang Zi to be put on the waiting list. , really made some sense.

For example, if Xungui is the main concubine, it is naturally the king of Nan'an County, and her mother's family is more powerful, which is also the acquiescence of Emperor Chongping.

Therefore, the main concubine can't do it, and the side concubine is under consideration.

On Jia Heng's side, thinking about how to spoil Wang Ziteng's good deeds, she turned her eyes to look at the girl beside her, and thought to herself, thanks to meeting Xianning today, I'm afraid Wang Ziteng would really be able to hide it.

Because of the secrets of the palace, even if he is in charge of Jinyi, he can't send people to inquire about it. This is a big taboo.

Moreover, Dai Quan would not know what was going on around the queen.

"We should also let Jinyang move on Queen Song's side, and always move on me, what's the matter." Jia Heng thought.

Princess Xianning saw the boy's calm expression, but she couldn't guess what he was thinking.

While the two were talking, they also arrived at the residence of Princess Jinyang.

Seeing Princess Xianning who came with Jia Heng, the nanny who greeted her at the door was even stunned for a moment, as if she was surprised that Princess Xianning had left and returned, because she asked: "Your Highness, haven't you returned to the palace?"

Princess Xianning's face, which was as cold as frost, was also a little hot, and she said: "I have something to do with looking for my aunt."

In the backyard, in the inner hall, Princess Jinyang with her temples rolled up, wearing a vermilion dress, sitting on a wicker chair covered with mattresses, reading a book in her hand, her eyebrows and eyes soft.

Yesterday's oversaturation blow made the beauty radiant, her eyebrows and eyes were full of charm, especially the two rounds of bright and full moons, which seemed to compete with the full moon on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Looking back, she was sitting on a chair holding the embroidered princess, and asked, "Chanyue, are you not going to the palace today?"

Li Chanyue embroidered with a needle, lowered her head to embroider a peony flower, and said coquettishly, "I'm a little tired these days, I don't want to go."

This princess is not absent-minded, in fact, she also has female celebrity skills.

The eldest princess of Jinyang said "Oh", lowered her beautiful eyes, and read the book for a while. After a while, she murmured: "Mother, I heard that the mansion of Prince Wei is almost finished. Please invite a craftsman from the Suzhou garden. Why don't you go and have a look?"

Li Chanyue said crisply: "Brother Wei Wang, he is too busy these days to see anyone, so don't bother him. After the completion of the project, it's not too late to celebrate the housewarming, and then visit the garden."

Princess Jinyang looked at her daughter, she was speechless for a while, Yurong paused, and sighed quietly: "Tomorrow is the Shangyuan Festival, and our house is deserted."

The little princess threaded the silk with a needle and thread, and said in a low voice: "Mother can hold a poetry meeting or something, isn't that how it used to be?"

Princess Jinyang frowned, put the book on the small table beside her, sighed softly, and said: "Some sour and fake poems, if you think about it carefully, they are actually not interesting."

In the past few days, I began to feel that the first half of my life was wasted.

Hearing this, the little princess put down her embroidery, fixedly looked at the bewildered beauty, and said, "Then why don't you call Mr. Jia over?"

When Princess Jinyang heard the words, her heart skipped a beat, her beautiful eyes narrowed, and she said coquettishly: "You child, you can talk nonsense. You won't be reunited with your family during the Lantern Festival. What are you doing here?"

It's just that during the conversation, I was also provoked by my daughter's resentment, and I couldn't watch the lanterns together on the Lantern Festival.

Seeing the embarrassment of the beauty, Li Chanyue became even more suspicious, and said: "Then go to the palace to watch the fireworks and lanterns tomorrow."

"That's fine." The eldest princess Jinyang said, and glanced at the girl with misty eyebrows and eyes, feeling a little pity in her heart, and said softly: "Chanyue, you are not young anymore, why don't you choose me as your mother?" Is it a matter of marriage?"

Li Chanyue paused in her hand and groaned in pain, but the needle pricked her finger, and immediately blood oozes from the slender finger.

Princess Jinyang's complexion changed slightly, she got up quickly and said, "Chanyue, why are you so careless."

As he spoke, he picked up his daughter's hand, looked at the blood beads on it, and frowned, as if she sucked it in her mouth when she was a child, but I don't know if it was because she first learned the skill yesterday, and Ding Xiang moved subconsciously for a while. Down.

Li Chanyue felt her fingers, Qiongbi snorted, and looked at Princess Jinyang in astonishment... a little confused.

Princess Jinyang acted nonchalantly, frowned and blamed, "It will be better soon, and you should be careful at ordinary times."

However, the snowy skin on the jade face of the lotus was slightly flushed, and the plum blossom makeup on the forehead, which was as smooth as jade, reflected charmingly.

Li Chanyue sighed softly: "I can't tie it, but my mother insists on talking about marriage. I want to serve my mother for a few more years."

Princess Jinyang looked at the girl with weak features and eyes, and thought to herself, do you serve me, or should I serve you?

Youyou said: "Daughter's family always wants to get married."

Li Chanyue Qingli's cheeks seemed to be a little blushing, her eyebrows were lowered, and she said in a low voice: "I didn't tell my mother the last time, I think Mr. Jia is very good."

Princess Jinyang's powdery face turned like clear frost, this time she was really annoyed, she said coldly: "Nonsense, have you ever seen the Princess as a concubine? Willing to degenerate, where is the face of the royal family? "

The last time Chanyue said this, she hadn't reached this point with him yet, so what's going on now?

Although she has already seen all kinds of secrets about the royal family, what a dirty Tang smelly man, and Chanyue is not her own.

But... no, absolutely not.

Quickly suppressed some thoughts.

Li Chanyue paused for a moment, she remained silent, and couldn't hold Princess Jinyang's mind for a while.

What else is there to be willing to degenerate and put the face of the royal family... So, there is no such thing?

At this time, a nun entered the hall and said, "Your Highness, His Highness Xianning and Mr. Jia have come together."

When Princess Jinyang heard this, she was surprised and said, "Xianning? Huh?"

Li Chanyue put down the embroidery in her hands, and muttered softly: "Some people really don't talk about it."

While speaking, Jia Heng and Princess Xianning entered the inner hall of the attic in the backyard.

"Xianning, you two... why are you here?" Princess Jinyang looked at the two who came hand in hand, and asked with frowned eyes.

Princess Xianning said: "On the way back to the palace, I met Mr. Jia, thinking that there was something puzzled about the Three Kingdoms script book I got from my aunt, so I simply asked him about the author."

This noble man from Tianhuang didn't have much twitching, he was very generous.

Jia Heng glanced at the eldest princess of Jinyang, lingered for a moment on her beautiful and beautiful face, exchanged quick glances with her, then turned to look at Li Chanyue, who was young and beautiful, and said hello: "Princess. "

Li Chanyue raised a pair of clear eyes and looked at the young man opposite. She didn't know if it was because of the conversation just now, but she felt a little strange in her heart, she nodded and said, "Mr. Xiao Jia."

Several people sat down again, drinking tea and talking.

Princess Xianning raised her eyes and asked, "Auntie, do you still go to the palace during the Lantern Festival?"

"It's the same thing every year, and it's not interesting. I'm not feeling well these two days. I don't plan to go tomorrow. I'll come back after I enter the palace and invite you. You and Chanyue can go together and have fun." Princess Jinyang said softly.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the heavenly family and the people have fun together, and the royal family, princes and princesses will also get together to enjoy lanterns, order the family together, and set an example for the world.
