Honor Hall
After all, it was Jia Mu who sighed and said: "Brother Heng, you didn't quarrel once or twice. Men have different opinions on major issues outside. It's better to discuss it more. Don't quarrel every now and then."
These words are naturally in the circle, describing the dispute between the two of them just now as a difference of opinion between the men.
It has to be said that this kind of amphitheater is quite level.
In fact, apart from playing a beautifying role in front of Aunt Xue and Baochai, everyone in Rongqing Hall knows it well.
The current dispute between Jia Heng and Jia She is not only a long-standing grievance, but also...a dispute between the people in Jia's house.
Yuanchun's entry into the palace was not a matter of Xifu's own family, but a matter of the entire Jia clan, and it was even more closely related to the fate of Jia Shi Wang Xue's four families.
Sister Feng said with a smile: "Brother Heng is a capable person. Previously, he helped make up ideas on some things in the clan."
Jia Heng's face was calm, and he said: "The Eldest Master has been busy with the matter of the Eldest Sister for several years, and he still can't believe it, and there are some reconciliations."
Jia Mu nodded and said, "Okay, after this matter is over, no one is allowed to mention it again."
As Jia Heng said just now, the deal is done, and there is no point in being entangled.
Jia Heng picked up the teacup on the side, sipped the tea without saying a word, but couldn't help but look up at Yuanchun, Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun.
Four springs are here, spring orchid and autumn chrysanthemum, each has its own field.
After a while, Yuanyang smiled and said, "Old lady, dinner is ready."
Jia Mu laughed and said, "Let's not talk about that first, let's eat."
Everyone sat down one after another and gathered around a table for dinner.
When Yuan Chunfang returned home, everyone gathered around to talk, and after a while, laughter and joy rang out.
After a while, as night fell, Jia Heng looked at Jia Mu who was at the side, and said, "It's getting late, old lady, I'll go back first."
Turning to look at Xichun who also got up and wanted to go back, he smiled and said: "Big sister just came back, you can talk with me here for a while, it's lively, it won't be too late when I go back tomorrow."
Facing those warm eyes, Xichun seemed to have some understanding, nodded, and said nothing more.
Jia Mu nodded and said with a smile, "Go ahead, Yuanyang will send it off for me."
Jia Heng and Yuanyang left the Rongqing Hall, walked along the corridor towards Ning Mansion.
Yuanyang suddenly said, "Master, there is something I want to talk to you about."
Jia Heng was surprised, and said, "What's the matter?"
Yuanyang said: "Yesterday, after the wife came back from the fourth girl's courtyard, she went to the second master Bao's room and asked Xiren to make a call."
Jia Heng frowned, but thought of just now, beside Baoyu, it seems that he has never seen the attacker?
Yuanyang said softly: "This morning, Xiren told me that because the uncle mentioned the charcoal exchange in the second master Bao's house yesterday, the wife said she was not important, and she was supposed to drive her out. The Lord begged for mercy, demoted the second-class servant girl, and punished her for a small punishment."
Jia Heng frowned, and said: "This... is a disaster."
In Rongning Second Mansion, the maids next to Mrs. and Mrs. are called first-class maids, those next to Miss Gongzi are second-class maids, and the next ones are the little maids and rough envoy maids.
There is another category of housemaids, such as Qiutong in Jia She's room and Ping'er in Jia Lian's room.
Qing Wen in Jia Heng's room is like this.
Xiren was originally a first-class servant girl by Jiamu's side, but was later sent to Baoyu's side.
Xiren, Sheyue, Qiuwen, and Bihen were the first-class maids in Baoyu's room, and later Xiren became the maids of the common room.
Strictly speaking, Qing Wen who is next to Jia Heng can be regarded as a housemaid now.
Jia Heng thought for a while and asked, "Yuanyang, you and Xiren grew up together, right?"
Yuanyang said softly: "Well, I used to serve the old lady, but now the second wife doesn't seem to like her very much, can the uncle help?"
Jia Heng pondered for a moment, and said: "Elder Sister Yuanchun came back from the palace and brought a maid to hold the qin, Xi Renke returned to the old lady to serve Eldest Sister."
If Xiren's desire to be an aunt is not dead, then no one can do anything.
However, looking at this posture, Mrs. Wang has some opinions on Xiren, and it will be difficult to think of becoming an aunt.
Yuanyang sighed and said, "Then I'll turn around and ask her what she means."
"Yesterday, after the old lady went back, she felt very uncomfortable at night. She kept telling me that she was wronged by not taking good care of the fourth girl." Yuanyang said softly.
Jia Heng said: "It's not a day or two for these things in the house, so don't mention them."
The mandarin duck's pink lips moved, but stopped talking.
"Okay, here we are, Yuanyang, let's go back." Jia Heng walked to the door, stood still, looked at Yuanyang, and said with a smile.
"Master, go slowly." Yuanyang said softly, then looked at the young man opposite, turned and left, sighing faintly.
At the beginning, the boy said that he would take her away from the old lady and take her into the room, but now he hasn't returned in a month, and he seems to be fine.
When Jia Heng returned to Ning Mansion, the inner flower hall was brightly lit, and there were endless chatter and laughter. When he entered it, he saw Qin Zhong talking with Qin Keqing, and You Shi was sitting beside him.
Qin Keqing stood up, went up to greet her, and said with a smile, "Husband, you're back."
Qin Zhong stood up and called out, "Brother-in-law."
Jia Heng nodded, took a seat at the side, took the teacup from Qingwen, and asked, "Jing Qing, did you just come back from school?"
While speaking, he took a look at Qin Zhong. That young man with red lips and white teeth and a handsome face may have been tanned recently, and he already showed some heroism.
"The school has a two-day vacation." Qin Keqing smiled from the side, then looked at the somewhat shy Qin Zhong, and said, "Tell your brother-in-law about the school?"
Jia Heng smiled and said, "What did the instructors in the lecture hall teach?"
The instructors in the lecture hall are all low-ranking generals Jia Heng asked Cai Quan to find from the Beijing camp.
Qin Zhong was stared at by Jia Heng, his cheeks were a little red, and he said softly: "First, I taught some ways to build strength, and I also learned some archery."
Jia Heng said: "Take your time, build your body and bones first, and then it won't be too late to practice martial arts."
Qin Keqing said softly: "I look much stronger. Dad said last time, isn't Jing Qing better at studying for the imperial examination?"
"We also need to have a good body. After the new year, we will go to Chongwen Museum to study art articles. Of course, it mainly depends on his interest. Is it more interesting to practice martial arts, or is it better to take the imperial examination?" Jia Heng said softly, looking at Qin with a smile Zhong asked, "Jing Qing, do you want to join the army or take the imperial examination?"
Qin Zhong looked up at Jia Heng with bright eyes, and said, "I...I... want to learn martial arts and join the army."
Perhaps it was the archery games these past few days that aroused some interest in this handsome young man who looked like a girl.
Jia Heng smiled and said: "It's okay to learn martial arts, but you still have to study, otherwise you will just be a brave and foolish martial artist, but there is no future to speak of."
Qin Zhong nodded emphatically, and responded.
Qin Keqing sighed, with a bit of melancholy on her beautiful face, she said softly: "Husband, daddy wants Jingqing to become an official through the imperial examination."
Jia Heng smiled and said, "In a few days, when I'm free, I'll go visit Yue Zhang."
Qin Keqing nodded and asked, "I heard from Sister-in-law You that Big Sister Xifu is back?"
"Yes, I'm back." Jia Heng looked at Youshi, paused for a moment with those gentle and affectionate gazes, and said, "Tomorrow, I think the eldest sister will come over, you guys have a good talk, she is in the palace. It’s not easy after so many years.”
After Jia Heng finished speaking, he didn't say any more, and under Qingwen's guidance, he went to the wing room to take a bath.
……
……
The next day, in the inner study room, the winter morning light passed through the window, casting the tall and straight figure of the young man on the desk.
Jia Heng put down his pen, and arranged the book, which is a book written in classics.
Early in the morning, Tanchun came in from the outside, the girl put on a light red silk skirt, Yingxiu had a smile on her face, and called: "Brother Heng."
Jia Heng smiled, looked up at Tan Chun, and said, "The third sister is here."
Tan Chun walked up to him with light steps, and asked curiously: "Brother Heng, are you going out to sit in the office today?"
Jia Heng said: "Well, let's go out later, I just called a few men in the clan to come over and explain something, and then I went to the Nancheng camp."
A look of curiosity appeared on Tanchun Yanmei's face, and she asked, "Brother Heng wants to see the men in the clan?"
Jia Heng explained: "Recently, the training of the new army is coming soon. I mobilized several men in the clan to join the new army Yitong for training."
Tan Chun's bright eyes flashed, his face was thoughtful, and he said softly: "People say that swords and guns have no eyes, and I don't know what these men in the clan think."
Jia Heng said: "Let's take a look first. No one in the clan mentioned this matter before. Some side branches, even if they want to ask for a family background, there is no way. connections."
In the old days, Jia Zhen and Jia Amnesty only inherited a title in the eastern and western prefectures, and none of them were officials outside the country.
These offshoot children did not live a wealthy life at home, even if they wanted to find a family background, there was nowhere to find it.
Take Jia Yun, the second master of the corridor as an example. The family is almost out of control. When repairing the garden, Jia Lian and Sister Feng were entrusted with their connections.
If you give him a way to join the army, if you take [-] steps back, you can still get a piece of Lumi, would you be willing?
And Jia Yun is obviously not the only one of these clansmen. With so many people, there are always those who are willing to take risks and join the army to seek wealth.
Tanchun nodded, and said: "Brother Heng said that our family started with military exploits, but in this generation, before Brother Heng, there is no one serving in the army. This is not a good omen. If I Not being a daughter, I'd rather go to the army."
Jia Heng looked at the girl with a determined face, stretched out his hand to help the girl's shaved shoulders, pressed lightly on the teacher's chair, and said with a smile: "Third sister, sit now and help me sort out these military reports. This is assisting in military affairs, so it can be regarded as joining the army."
Tanchun was supported by the young man to shave his shoulders, especially the hot air was beating on his forehead, his eyebrows were drooping, his cheeks were slightly flushed, and he gave a soft "um", his heart was already beating non-stop.
A woman in the outer room said, "Master, the men of the clan have arrived in the front hall."
Jia Heng looked at Tanchun and said with a smile, "Third sister, you wait here, I'll go see them."
With that said, he went to the flower hall.
In the flower hall, the nanmu chairs were full of men from the Jia family, all of them were relatively young juniors from the jade-style and cursive-style generations.
There are, Jia, Jia Fan, Jia Chen, Jia Qiong, Jia Lin and others from the Yuzi generation, and Jiachang, Jia Ling, Jia Yun, Jia Qin, Jia Fang, Jia Fen and others from the cursive generation.
Jia Xiao, Jia Dun, and Jia Chi, who are from the literary generation, are all a little older. They lead the errands of the Ning Mansion outside, and as deacons, they inspect some shops and farmland.
Seeing Jia Heng coming in, everyone got up and greeted Jia Heng.
For a while, those who called Uncle Heng and Uncle Heng called them differently.
"Sit down, my family, you don't need to be too polite." Jia Heng smiled and waved his hands, exchanging a few words of greeting.
Jia Chen was in his early twenties, with a handsome face. This man had been ordered by Jia Heng to pretend to be Jia Lian and trick the Sanhe Gang into helping him. He looked at Jia Heng with sparkling eyes and said, "I don't know if the master called us over, what do you want?"
Facing the staring gazes, Jia Heng's complexion changed, and he said loudly: "Please come, brothers and nephews, I have a piece of wealth that I want to ask everyone, would you like it?"
"Fugui?" Everyone was taken aback, with different expressions.
Older, with a relatively calm temperament, although happy on the face, but still waiting patiently, just secretly guessing, does Master Heng have some good errands to send them?
And Jia Qin's heart was already burning, his eyes lit up, he suddenly stood up, and said firstly: "Uncle Heng, if you have anything to do, just give orders, go up the mountain of knives, go down into the sea of fire, my nephew will not frown!"
"Good ambition!"
Jia Heng praised Jie, turned his head and glanced at Jia Qin, this Jia clan member who in the original book took the domestic Taoist priests to hang out in the temple and recruited gangsters to drink and gamble, was seventeen or eighteen years old, with a stunned face. appearance.
Jia Heng said in a solemn voice: "Now the imperial court intends to reorganize the army and fight against disasters. I have been ordered by the emperor to supervise the army. Join me in the army to find a background, follow Ningrong ancestors, those who fight for wealth and honor, can enter the camp for training today, I am the patriarch of the Jia clan, and I will not treat you badly."
When everyone in the hall heard the words, they all looked at each other in blank dismay.
Jia Heng's eyes wandered over Jia Fan, Jia Chen, Jia Qiong, Jia Lin, Jia and others, and they all showed varying degrees of doubt on their faces.
Look at Jia Chang, Jia Ling, Jia Yun, Jia Qin, Jia Fang, Jia Fen and others, such as Jia Chang and Jia Ling, they are either startled or frightened, and some are eager to try.
Jia Heng said: "Of course, all of this is voluntary and will not be forced. After all, he is going to fight people with knives and guns. If he does it well, I will guarantee his future!"
Everyone fell silent for a while.
After a while, Jia had a bitter look on his face, and said hesitantly: "Brother Heng, I am old and haven't practiced martial arts much. There is an old lady on the top, and your nephew and niece on the bottom. They are all just in school. Can't get away from it."
Jia Heng nodded and said: "Brother, it is human nature to think about the safety of the family. Jiao Da asked someone to go to the accountant to pay five liang of silver, and asked my brother to take it. It is the Chinese New Year, what is missing at home, what is missing, Add some."
With shame on Jia's face, he thanked him a thousand times, and followed Jiao Da, whose face turned black, out of the corridor.
Seeing that Jia Heng was not annoyed, Jia Fen was embarrassed and said in a low voice: "Uncle Heng, I have been weak and sick since I was a child, and I am not expected to join the army. I just got married last year."
Jia Heng glanced at Jia Fen, saw that he was strong and ruddy, frowned and said: "Nephew Fen, his body seems to be a little weaker, it is really not good for the army, Jiao Da, let someone go to the warehouse to pack a bag or two." Ginseng, bring it to Jafen."
Jiao Da's face was so dark that he ordered a servant to lead Jia Fen away, snorted coldly, and scolded: "How did the grandfather give birth to these useless wretches who are greedy for life and afraid of death?"
Jia Heng frowned, and shouted: "Jiao Da, don't be rude!"
Hearing this, Jiao Da cupped his fists and retreated angrily.
But after this incident, one or two others who were hesitant listened to Jiao Da's words, but it was hard to leave.
Jia Qin's face was ashen, and she opened her mouth, intending to keep her mouth shut, but she just threw out all the words on the scene, but if she quit, she couldn't say it.
Jia Heng looked at Jia Fan, Jia Chen, Jia Qiong, Jia Lin and the others, nodded, then glanced at Jia Chang, Jia Ling, Jia Yun, Jia Fang, Jia Qin and the others, and said in a deep voice: " If you come to the army first, if you really can't persist, you can withdraw after the new army is trained, but once you enter the army, you must strictly obey orders, and you need to know that military law is merciless."
He didn't intend to want all of them at first, he would rather be short than excessive.
However, joining the army is life-threatening after all, and it is normal to have doubts. Even in later generations, if war breaks out, not everyone is willing to serve in the military.
And there is no natural brave, courage and courage can be cultivated.
When everyone heard this, some people breathed a sigh of relief.
Jia Heng said: "Jiao Da, ask the cashier to withdraw ten taels of silver from each person, and let them go home and settle down."
When everyone heard the words, they couldn't help showing joy on their faces, and they were a little shaken, thinking that maybe it would be good to be in the army?
After all, they are all surnamed Jia, so they can't be too bad, right?
Jiao Da hastily responded, and led a few people to go.
"Three Kingdoms: I was buried alive at the beginning, and the Emperor Ling helped me ascend the throne"
In the first year of Jianning in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the disaster of party restraint arose, eunuchs and scholar-officials fought in the palace, and the newly born prince Liu Yu unfortunately died.
On the day of the burial, the prince's body mysteriously disappeared in the coffin!
Emperor Liu Hong was furious and ordered a thorough investigation into the case of the prince's disappearance, beheading thousands of eunuchs and imperial guards who failed in their duties!
...
Ten years later, in a Taoist temple on the outskirts of Luoyang, Liu Yu traveled through the late Han Dynasty for more than ten years!
At this time, he was talking about the past with a "middle-aged businessman".
"Uncle Liu, I was still a baby at that time, how would I know what happened?"
"The only thing I know is that my master rescued me from the coffin!"
"I heard that His Majesty's son died today. I'm probably burying the little prince with me, right?"
The middle-aged businessman looked at Liu Yu blankly and asked in shock.
"Want to be emperor?"
