Chapter 42: Pleasure
The servant of the blue-eyed young man took advantage of the fact that everyone was not paying attention, and although he was light and fast, some people still noticed it.
Those who noticed it reported it to their masters.
The foreign envoys were silent when they heard this, but they were thoughtful.
One of the envoys was in his early twenties, fat and round, smiling all the time, and his two small eyes narrowed into a thin slit, which looked very funny.
Hearing the report of his subordinates, he glanced in the direction of the blue-eyed young man out of the corner of his eye.
Humming in his heart, I hope you can successfully kill the Jing family's Dumiao Miao, so that the prince of the province will do it.
There was a rather arrogant envoy with a few entourages strode to the side of Hama and Mida, they are both Saigon people, after some exchanges, the two monks knew that the previous group of people were actually the family members and entourage of the head killing general Jing Lao Marquis, no wonder those guards were so murderous.
Because Mrs. Jing despised many foreign envoys, including this arrogant envoy, this arrogant envoy angrily ordered the second monk to find a way to get rid of Mrs. Jing and Jing Jianglong.
Hamo narrowed his eyes, his eyes rolled back and forth, and after thinking for a while, he whispered, "Sixth Prince, the poor monk observes that the old lady Jing believes in Buddhism, and the poor monk can take this opportunity to go to the Najing Mansion to sit as a guest, and if there is a chance, it is a good opportunity to trick her out." β
"Well, Prince Ben awaits your good news." Arrogant prince hahadaxiao.
Seeing that the prince was in a good mood and went to communicate with the other envoys next to him, Mida suddenly lowered his voice, and said angrily: "Although he is a prince, he is ranked sixth, and his mother family is not much shili, why should we listen to his assignment?" β
"We have no money and no one in our hands now, and it is inevitable that we will not be able to do anything, but the sixth prince has a few capable retinues around him." Hamour's eyes were bright and he smiled.
Mida suddenly realized and nodded again and again.
When the officials present heard that this elegiac couplet was made by Jing Jianglong, they immediately exchanged heads and talked about it.
Most people are surprised, this elegiac couplet is quite innovative, it is a superior work, it is difficult to write without a certain literary style and cleverness, so since Jing Jianglong is talented, then why is it not famous before, I have never heard of such a number one person in the capital?
Ningyuan County is on the outskirts of the capital, not far away, but it is actually within the jurisdiction of the capital.
However, although everyone was puzzled, it did not prevent Jingjianglong from spreading his reputation after he went back.
After all, this elegiac couplet is indeed really good, and it is hung in front of the mourning hall of the Master Guichen.
Wait a while, when these officials are gone, many people will come to mourn, and then the people at the bottom will also spread the name of Jingjianglong.
It can be expected that Jingjianglong will save the alliance and make a name for himself in the capital.
Xiao Jing stroked his beard with his hand, and secretly wondered in his heart, it was rumored that Jing Jianglong was sick and weak, and he didn't have a good life in a few years, everyone thought that the Jing family's murder was too heavy, and he was punished by God, and he was destined to have no successor, but he saw Jing Jianglong before, although his body was thin, but it was not an early death.
Could it be that the Jing family will rise again?
If this is the case, then some people in the DPRK and China are afraid that they will not be able to sleep well.
Xiao Jing was born in a big family, otherwise if there was no seniors in the clan to take care of, promote, and vigorously support, he would not have been able to sit in the position of the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites at such a young age, as a child of a big family, he was naturally more well-informed than others, and he knew that the old Marquis Jing and the current emperor were playmates and grew up together.
Although there is also a quarrel between the two, because the old marquis Jing is very loyal, and has no scheming, goes straight, and has a very high force to shock southern Xinjiang, so the emperor and the old marquis Jing have an extraordinary relationship, and they trust the old marquis Jing very much.
The emperor should take good care of his friend's only grandson.
Xiao Jing thinks that based on this alone, if Jing Jianglong has real talent and real learning, then it is not difficult for the Jing family to restore its former glory under the favoritism and promotion of the emperor.
Of course, the Jing family has too many enemies in the court, especially if it is not right with the current prince, there is also a great crisis.
Once the emperor dies and the crown prince ascends the throne, then the end of the Jing family will come.
The Xiao family and the Jing family have no grudges, of course, there is no friendship, Xiao Jing thought about it, and felt that it was better to maintain the status quo with the Jing family, and it was not appropriate to make friends and offend, and in the Xiao family, most people were in favor of standing on the side of the prince, so he didn't think about it anymore.
Leaving the small courtyard, Jiang Long turned around and looked at the Jingfu guards, and suddenly asked, "What about Qin Yu?" β
"Back to the little young master, after the striker went up the mountain, it was too noisy and refused to be quiet, so Qin Yu had to take it around." Chen Tai, the captain of the Jingfu guard, stepped forward, clenched his fists and bowed, and replied.
Jiang Long nodded, and then said to Mrs. Jing with a smile: "Grandma, how many people should I take around?" β
"Okay, bring a few more guards." After all, Mrs. Jing is old, a little afraid of the cold, and she doesn't want to stay here to blow the cold mountain breeze, speaking of which, she wanted to turn around and leave, but when she saw the figure beside her, she suddenly added, "Ya'er also stays, you are here for the first time, so you will accompany Jiang Long for a walk, and also pay homage to the Buddha light of the Garan Temple." β
"Yes." Lin Ya bit her red lips lightly and nodded slightly.
"Chen Tai, you arrange a few more people to stay behind to protect Jiang Long, and the rest will go home with the old body." Mrs. Jing just held Yao's mother's arm and lifted her leg to leave.
When Yao's mother left, she glanced back at Jiang Long, her eyes full of concern.
Chen Tai received the order, and waited for Mrs. Jing to step out, and then shouted to order the guards.
More than 20 guards came out today, Chen Tai left most of them, eighteen, including himself, Guan Shihao killed someone before, and the hatred was a bit high, Chen Tai wanted Guan Shihao to go back with Mrs. Jing, but Guan Shihao wanted to stay.
The reason is that it is his turn to do it when the lottery is drawn, and if someone is looking for trouble, he will be in front.
Chen Tai thought about it and felt that there was some truth, so he also asked Guan Shihao to stay and protect Jiang Long.
Standing in place and watching Old Madam Jing and her party walk away, Jiang Long took a long breath, looked around, and then walked towards a tall temple not far away.
Lin Ya was about to step up to follow, but the sleeve on her right side was gently pulled.
Du Juan's deliberately lowered voice also came to her ears, "Miss, the slave has something to say." β
"Hmm." Lin Ya bit her lip tightly and deliberately slowed down.
The Jing family's guards are all tall and rude men, but they also know that to avoid suspicion, they can't get too close to Lin Ya, the young lady, so most of them keep up with Jiang Long's pace to protect themselves, and the other half is to keep a distance and protect Lin Ya's surroundings.
"The little young master took your hand before, and he seems to be quite tempted by you, you will show your goodwill later, presumably you will be able to have a round room with the little young master tonight."
Seeing that the guards avoided the distance, Shui Lan couldn't wait to whisper.
Du Juan nodded in agreement, there was some jealousy and resentment in her eyes, the previous Jingjianglong was sick, cowardly and naΓ―ve, and his temper was not good, Lin Ya was unlucky to have a round house with her, she was naturally happy in her heart, even if you were born noble, what if you were born?
It's not being manipulated, it's a chess piece, and it's not autonomous.
Even his own slave and maid ring can open his mouth and scold.
But Jiang Long suddenly made a wonderful elegy before, and then he gave a very difficult story answer, and sighed that all beings refused to turn back, which made Du Juan admire and admire.
Now urging Lin Ya to have a relationship with her, Du Juan is not angry and resentful.
Because now Jiang Long has risen to the height of a talent.
Lin Ya remarried him, not because she was unlucky, but because she was talented and beautiful.
This makes Du Juan, who has always looked down on Lin Ya and has to embarrass Lin Ya from time to time, and Du Juan, who has always had a sense of superiority in front of Lin Ya, the daughter of a wealthy family, is unhappy in her heart.
In this era, there are clear hierarchies, and most people are honest and respectful to their masters.
There are also some people who still believe in fate, but they have a twisted mind.
To be cheap, to trample people who are more than your own life, to see them sad, suffer, and be insulted by others or yourself, you will have a strange pleasure.
Du Juan is this kind of person.
Hearing the second daughter urging her to have sex with Jiang Long again, Lin Ya felt embarrassed at the same time, and Jiang Long's confident and chic appearance before also floated in her mind.
"Speak." Shui Lan saw that Lin Ya was a little stunned, and urged in a low voice.
Du Juan found the flash of admiration in Lin Ya's eyes with sharp eyes.
I couldn't help but use my subordinates to twist the silk handkerchief tightly!
"Oh, I'll give it a try." Lin Ya lowered her head to cover up.
Seeing that she agreed, Shui Lan hurriedly came up with ideas and offered strategies, just waiting for Lin Ya to successfully climb onto Jiang Long's bed.
Du Juan snorted coldly, scolding in her heart, how pure and noble she pretends to be on weekdays, but now when she sees that people are talents, she reveals her coquettish nature!
Shameless vixen!
After scolding, she walked through the crowd in front of her with a hint of obsession, and fixed on the back of Jiang Long, who was about to enter the temple.
If only I could be his woman.
As soon as this idea came to mind, Du Juan was shocked, how could she have such an idea?
However, another different voice sounded in his heart, in fact, it was not impossible, he was Lin Ya's dowry girl, and it stands to reason that he was originally going to be a concubine for the little master of the Jing family.
Jiang Long came to the main hall and stepped forward to pay homage to the Buddha statue, only to find that Lin Ya did not follow up.
Looking back, he looked thoughtfully.
After a while, Lin Ya also walked in with two maid rings.
"Jialan Temple is our Great Qi Protector Temple, the Buddha here is still quite effective, you can also go to a stick of incense to make a wish." Jiang Long took the initiative to talk to Lin Ya.
Lin Ya tapped her head, and when she saw Jiang Long looking straight at her, she hurriedly avoided her gaze, her pretty face was slightly red, and she lowered her head and walked to the Buddha statue to bow down.
Closing her eyes, Lin Ya silently made a wish in her heart.
Jiang Long looked at Lin Ya's beautiful face from behind him, and the corners of his mouth gently provoked a smile.
This scene happened to be seen by Du Juan, and with the strength of her little hand, she twisted the silk handkerchief in her hand tighter.
In fact, if it was changed before today, she wished that Jiang Long would be seduced by Lin Ya.
Because as long as she can assist Lin Ya to complete the tasks assigned by the Lin family's elders, she and Shui Lan will get great benefits!
Garan Temple is quite large, with a cluster of temples occupying several nearby hills.
There are three halls, the Heavenly King Hall, the Mahavira Hall, the Goddess of Mercy Hall, the Jizo Hall, the Garan Hall, the Patriarch Hall, the Arhat Hall, and many Bodhisattva statues.
Among them, the Daxiong Hall is the main hall of the temple, which is the most tall, magnificent and solemn.
Jiang Long took everyone on a tour of the temple, but he didn't know that there was a group of black-clothed people who were always paying attention to his whereabouts.
