Chapter 16: Behind Brother Yan'er

Chapter 16 Behind Brother Yan'er

He Jiaqing was stunned for a moment, touched his nose, and said in astonishment: "Sister Chang'an, don't you want your cousin to become an eldest sister-in-law?"

Looking at He Jiaqing's appearance, Chang'an is really indescribably funny, in terms of mentality, He Jiaqing is far more mature than many noble children of the same age, but sometimes, he pretends to be stupid, and he can indeed make people half angry.

Bai Shi looked at the two brothers and sisters and laughed even more, but after a pause, he said slowly: "You can't marry Sister Qi to Brother Yan, Sister Qi'er's identity is still not enough." ”

He Jiaqing thought as if he had thought of something, and the expression on his face froze: "Mother's words are really funny, Brother Yan is just the son of an aunt from Bofu, although there is a blessing in the name of the mother, but Cousin Qi is the granddaughter of the Hou Mansion from the serious eldest aunt, or Brother Yan is not worthy of Cousin Qi." ”

However, the meaning of the words is also very clear, a person like Shi Qi is not a good match in his He Jiaqing's heart.

Bai Shi thought about it, but he still opened his mouth, but these words were even more amazing.

"Brother Yan'er, I have already written to discuss with your father, and after the New Year, please make you the son of Gongchang. ”

When you become a prince, it is very different from the original nominal son-in-law!

Daxuan does not have a particularly strict title inheritance system, as long as the previous generation has no food, it is not a big mistake for the next generation to inherit the knighthood.

Seeing that He Jiaqing is already fourteen years old, and after the turn of fifteen, he is about to start thinking about the matter of discussing relatives, giving the family affairs at the age of sixteen or seventeen, and bringing his daughter-in-law in when he is ten * years old, and starting a family without delay!

The eldest son of Gong Changbo Mansion and the son of Gong Changbo are completely different.

Who's family has a good girl, isn't he more willing to marry someone else to be the wife of the prince? This is a promising future.

If He Jiaqing really became the son of Gongchangbo, then although Shi Qi is the granddaughter of the Hou Mansion, his father is not the son, and his identity is really not worthy of He Jiaqing!

What's more, Daxuan has such a tradition, bow your head to marry a woman, and raise your head to marry a woman.

He Jiaqing is still a calm person, but there is a little excitement at the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, and the rest is very calm, respectfully lifted his robe, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to Bai: "Son He Jiaqing thanks his mother for his great kindness." ”

Bai Shi smiled with relief, and asked Xi Rui to help He Jiaqing up: "Brother Yan, you don't have to be like this, if you are not a good person, I will not send you to my name, not to mention anything else, even your uncle said that you are a brother who can become a great weapon." The eldest sister will marry sooner or later, and she is someone else's daughter-in-law, and her mother is counting on it now, and she will enjoy the blessings of Brother Yan in the future. In addition, it is not easy for your aunt to give birth to you, and she has abided by her duty for so many years, and in the future, when you become the son of the world, I will add some to your aunt's share, and I don't have to go out of the public before this money, my private room is still enough. ”

He Jiaqing naturally thanked him and didn't mention it.

He Changan was a little emotional, He Jiaqing's biological mother Aunt Geng is really much more successful than He Wang'an's biological mother Aunt Ge, although she gave birth to a son, she has always kept her duty, and never caused trouble in front of her mother, although she has not seen her father spoil her for so many years, but she has paved a way for her son to be safe and stable.

It's a thousand times stronger than Aunt Ge!

Originally, he was talking about his cousin Shi Qi, but because he wanted to ask He Jiaqing to be the son of the world, he diverted the topic, and at this time He Jiaqing thanked him and said about it, and Bai Shi said again: "It's just Brother Yan, listening to your determined tone, saying that you want to find a declining son for Sister Qi to support the second prince, where can you find such a person, Brother Yan, you may be able to say it?"

He Jiaqing shrugged his nose: "Haha, mother, Brother Yan just has an idea in his heart about this matter, but he is not in a hurry about the specific candidate, and he also has to see what the kid and the second prince think." When the draft is left and right, the first three months can only be assigned to the prince, and the powerful people will marry, and most of them will have to wait until the show girl leaves the brand for half a year. ”

Chang'an thought for a while, what He Jiaqing said was also reasonable, although she didn't know who this person He Jiaqing was thinking about, but that sentence of this kid undoubtedly showed that he was really familiar with this person.

Then he answered: "Yes, mother, Chang'an thinks that the top priority now is how to keep Cousin Qi from being assigned to the prince and not let the saint enter the harem." ”

After going around in circles, it seems that they are back to square one, and they are chatting hotly here, and it seems that they still can't escape the fate of the draft.

Chang'an and Bai were a little depressed, although He Jiaqing couldn't say why, but he gave people a look of being in his chest.

After talking like this, the Bai family was also a little tired, so he asked Fanzhi to send the two brothers and sisters back to their own places, and he also took off the hairpin ring under the service of Xirui, and went in to rest.

As soon as He Jiaqing returned to the courtyard where he lived, he saw Huimo, a little servant who had been following him all the year round, running in, and said mysteriously: "Young master, master, there is a letter." ”

As he spoke, he took out an earth-colored envelope from his arms, with four big characters written on it, Wu'er personally opened it, it was indeed He Chenggong's note, but there was another mystery in the earth-colored envelope, as soon as He Jiaqing opened it, an envelope of the same color and material fell out of it, but it was slightly smaller.

On the book, Brother Yan opened it himself.

He Jiaqing was overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled out the content of the letter to read it, and when he looked at it, his original sad face turned into a smile!

When he had finished reading it, he burned the letter along the flame of the candle on the table.

*

The imperial capital is only a little cold in September, but Tanzhou is much more north than the imperial capital, and in September, it has begun to fall with snow, at first it was only a small snow, and after the middle of the month, the snow was already the size of a goose feather.

Drinking wind in the camp tent in Lucheng, thinking to himself, if the imperial capital wants the snow to fall so much, at least it will have to wait until the winter moon.

Because this is on the front line of Tanzhou, it is impossible to have a decent house for Lu Cheng to live in, let alone the kind of palace like living in the imperial capital, Lu Cheng pulled a wry smile at the corner of his mouth, last year when the imperial capital was full of goose feathers and heavy snow, there was a heavy conversation between him and his father, and not long after that, Ye Hibiscus died, he was deprived of the crown prince and sent to Tanzhou.

When he came to Tanzhou at that time, although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, this place could not be blessed at all, but he didn't expect Tanzhou to be so bitterly cold, there was almost no human population in the desert for thousands of miles, and even the grass that grew out was the kind of tall and big white grass.

It's like the weathers that the city has been stained with.

The beautiful name is that the prince came to Tanzhou to sit in the town and boost morale, but when he came, he was no longer the prince, so when he first came to Tanzhou, everyone under the soldiers had Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts, and even many people looked down on him openly and secretly.

However, Lu Cheng didn't take these gossips in his eyes and kept them in mind, but he ate and slept with these soldiers every day, and never opened any small stove. People who were born in the army value brothers together, life and death comrades, he is a dignified son, and he can do this, but he quickly won the hearts of these soldiers.

It's a bittersweet end.

A few days ago, he sneaked back to the imperial capital, originally because he got a secret report from He Jiaqing and Xu Linche, saying that Concubine Qing always summoned some women frequently during this time, and the action gradually increased, so he went back to watch the situation, but he didn't believe it, and his father didn't know about the things he slipped back.

But there was no edict to reprimand him, which proved that he had not lost his heart with his father, and Concubine Qing was watching her father's every move!

Just thinking there, a man's deep voice sounded outside the door: "Your Highness, can the old minister come in?"

Lu Cheng opened the tent, and the cold wind poured in, and the brazier burning in the tent shook violently, but fortunately, it was not completely extinguished, but only struggled weakly.

The person who came was Geng Wei, the Duke of Korea, who was the most brave and warlike among the princes of the dynasty, and was also a well-known black-faced king in the court. Those sour and rancid smells, few people can get into Geng Wei's eyes, those who march and fight, if they don't have any real skills, Geng Wei can't look down on them, but it's been ten months since he came to Tanzhou, and Lu Cheng can clearly feel that Geng Wei in Tanzhou and Geng Wei he knew before seem to be really different.

"Korean princess, I just warmed a pot of burning knives here, Guogong might as well drink it with me." ”

After coming to Tanzhou, Lu Cheng has never used the word "palace".

Geng Wei smiled heartily: "Since it is His Highness's burning knife, how can the old minister miss it? Your Highness should not cry when the time comes, saying that the old minister has drunk His Highness poor by drinking this mass." ”

The distance was even more crisp, and he was replaced, and took out two sea bowls: "Grandpa Guo, isn't this bowl big enough?" Lu Cheng is not afraid that Grandpa Guo will be poor in drinking, but he is afraid that Grandpa Guo will not be able to drink a bowl." ”

Geng Wei's amount of wine is really good, and the bowl of Yihai will be completely dry in a while, and Geng Wei also raised the bowl upside down: "Come again! In this place where birds don't lay eggs, burning knives is the best way to warm up your body!"

Lu Cheng also did the same, as soon as he raised his hand, a bowl of wine went down, but the burning knife was too strong, Lu Cheng usually rarely drank it, but now he took a bite of it, choked on the spicy one, coughed twice, looked at Geng Wei and smiled, and wiped his mouth with his sleeve.

Geng Wei also has a characteristic, he is a representative of spitting the truth after drinking, three or four bowls of wine went down, and he began to speak incoherently: "Your Highness, let me tell you the truth, in fact, when you first came to Tanzhou, I didn't look down on you, those royal relatives and nobles who came to the army before, I Geng Mou has seen a lot, all of them are in the name of rewards, eating, drinking and enjoying themselves, turning around and confessing a pair, and going to the emperor to pay a business, I didn't expect it, Your Highness...... Your Highness, you have a good meal. ”

The tongue began to grow bigger, it was said to eat, Lu Cheng drank slowly, and was still sober, hearing this, he smiled, and raised his eyes to look at this weather-beaten Korean man who already had white hair on his sideburns.

"Your Royal Highness, I'll tell you, next year's imperial capital draft, you have to have a snack, pick yourself a more agreeable princess, it will also be a help in the future, don't wait to let others take the lead, let me tell you, others are really not as good as you, at least, you are here, thinking about the country, thinking about the people. ”

Geng Wei was really a little drunk, and poked straight at Lu Cheng's chest, Lu Cheng frowned slightly, and then returned to normal.

But after another bowl of wine, Geng Wei fell asleep on his stomach.

Lu Cheng just helped Geng Wei to his couch, covered him with a quilt and let him sleep, while sleeping, he was talking all kinds of words, an elusive smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said to himself: "I'm Lu Cheng...... I have never been a person who has to rely on women to make things happen, but since some people are willing, and my aunt has this mind, I can let Brother Yan help the trouble. ”
