Chapter 67: Family Affairs
readx;?? After more than two months have passed, Zhang Jiashi does not know what awaits him when he returns home. Biquge: www.biquge.info.vd.mhp:///
After all, in a sense, this is also an arbitrary and arbitrary behavior. Although Zhang Jiashi really hopes that he and Yingxi will have their own time for detailed thinking, it is just that there is no definite effect in doing so. Zhang Jiashi didn't know.
"As long as the boat doesn't sink naturally at the head of the bridge. Zhang Jiashi said such a sentence self-deprecatingly.
......
What Zhang Jiashi didn't know was that since it was not the nine-tailed fox who helped him solve this trouble, nor was it the father-in-law Xi, who had a very close relationship with these princesses, let alone Chen Pingxiao and others.
The person who resolved the differences between the two sides was a person who Zhang Jiashi could be regarded as a deceitful person together, she was Yingqin.
As the current eldest princess of the Great Qin Empire, she has a more understanding resentment towards her brothers and sisters, except for a few sisters in Zhang Jiashi's mansion, all of whom died in Dudi or after being buried in the Lishan Imperial Mausoleum.
She can understand why Zhang Jiashi did this, but it does not mean that she can agree with Zhang Jiashi's approach.
In fact, she also knows very well that Yingxi and Yinglian also have such an idea. It is impossible to make the two younger sisters really resent Zhang Jiashi. After all, they are intimate husband and wife.
Did Zhang Jiashi do something wrong?
Perhaps in terms of the process, Zhang Jiashi's approach did hurt many people's hearts, but in terms of results, Zhang Jiashi had to do this. So Zhang Jiashi didn't do anything wrong.
Otherwise, don't say that Chen Ping, who is Zhang Jiashi's staff, will help cover it up, I'm afraid that Gonggong Xi will not help the follow-up development of this matter. In a sense, it was because of the help of his father-in-law that Zhang Jiashi would get a relatively perfect result for him.
What is this because Chen Ping and even his father-in-law will help?
Quite simply, because they didn't think that such an approach was a mistake for Zhang Jiashi and them.
That night, after Zhang Jiashi left her home overnight, for Yingqin, her heart was quite touched.
It's not that because of the other party's approach, she can't understand it, on the contrary, she knows very well that if it weren't for Zhang Jiashi's toughness, I'm afraid that they, Zhang Jiashi, and even the high-level officials of General Zuo's Mansion would be destroyed.
After the death of their father, Zhang Jiashi basically could no longer get support from the center of the Great Qin Empire, and everything, including the conquest of Korea and this campaign that she did not know the goal, was more the result of the efforts of Zhang Jiashi and General Zuo's Mansion.
In Yingqin's eyes, Zhang Jiashi's existence is indispensable for many people. Needless to say, Zhang Jiashi's wives and concubines, and not to mention the entire Zuo General's Mansion, just those of them who live in Zhang Jiashi's house, as well as the civilians living within the actual control of Zhang Jiashi, Zhang Jiashi's existence ensures a relatively safe living environment for them.
In the next few days, in an exchange with Gonggong Xi, she clearly understood that the current Great Qin Empire has gradually perished like a sunset.
The current core area of the Great Qin Empire, except for an area extending from the original Guanzhong area, has not been affected by the gunsmoke, and other places, especially the areas on the front line of Sanchuan County and Nanyang County, are the areas where the war is most intense.
And a large area east of this front has either been captured by the rebels or has become a rebel.
In the real sense, only the border counties that the Northern Frontier Army was still holding and the Liaodong County and the Korean region controlled by Zhang Jiashi were still under the jurisdiction of the Great Qin Empire.
The news of the Southern Army has been like a stone in the sea, and there is not the slightest news. This is not completely bad news, but after Ying Qin heard Father-in-law Xi's sneer at Ren Huan and Zhao Tuo, she knew that the Great Qin Empire had lost control of the Southern Expeditionary Army.
The current Great Qin Empire has only six formed troops at best.
They are: Huanfeng's Central Legion of the Great Qin Empire (part of which has been transferred to join Zhang Han's army), Li Mian's (former cousin of Li Bing, the county guard of Shu County), the western Northern Frontier Corps on the line from Longxi to Beidi, the main force of the Northern Frontier Corps in the Jiuyuan area of Yunzhong under the command of General Wang Li, Zhang Han's Rebellion Suppression Corps, and Zhang Jiashi's Zuo General's Mansion.
If you count the county guards or county lieutenant troops of the counties that have not yet fallen, the number should be much higher, but except for the two troops of the Northern Frontier Army and the Southern Frontier Army that have lost their news, the troops of other inland counties are not considered a rabble, but their combat effectiveness is not too high.
This can be seen from the fact that Li Yu, the county guard who was active in Sanchuan County, was more able to hold on to the city and could not drive away or even destroy the enemy.
The situation of the Great Qin Empire has obviously declined. Although she didn't believe in this, the person who said such things to her was no one else, but Gonggong Xi, one of the most trusted people by her father, made her have to accept such a fact.
Less than a year after the death of the First Emperor, the Great Qin Empire, under the rule of Zhao Gao and Hu Hai, was boiling with resentment, which made her feel incredible.
But Xi Gonggong believes that the brutal rule of Zhao Gao and Hu Hai is more of an incentive and a factor that adds fuel to the fire. In fact, if there were no remnants of the Six Kingdoms making waves, the so-called Zhang Chu alone would not be able to stir up any storms at all.
Of course, Gonggong Xi followed the side of the First Emperor Yingzheng very early, and he knew very well that the First Emperor did not solve such a few remnants of the Six Kingdoms back then, not that he did not dare to kill them, but the existence of these remnants of the Six Kingdoms made the First Emperor understand that solving such problems can only weaken their influence step by step and cannot solve the problem at one time.
For example, for a patient who has already improved somewhat, once the medical worker disregards the patient's weak body and prescribes drastic medicine, then such a result can only make things worse or worse than the situation before the treatment.
Moreover, among the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, many people had to stay and assist the Great Qin Empire in governing the place, otherwise, the original officials of the Great Qin Empire alone would not be able to effectively govern the much more extensive place.
Therefore, it is not that the first emperor is indecisive in this regard, but more of a rat trap.
In many senses, in the territory of the Great Qin Empire, many of the people who are now rebelling against Great Qin are themselves former officials of the Six Kingdoms or even members of the royal family.
Especially Xiang Liang, who was in the limelight before, but was killed by Zhang Han and led the army to Dingtao, is the head of the Xiang family, one of the four major families of the Chu State.
These people have a lot of influence, and they can make the Great Qin Empire's pursuit for many years only a dead letter.
Especially in Wu County more than two years ago, in the matter of Zhang Jiashi's arrest of Yin Tong, the Xiang family was accepted by Yin Tong as a doorman, so that they could avoid arrest.
Even the Xiang family, which is clearly wanted, can be sheltered, not to mention the other three families at both ends of the first rat and the yang and the yin. Although the three families of Qu, Jing, and Zhao surrendered to Daqin on the surface, after Xiang Liang raised troops, didn't these three families also raise the anti-flag later?
It can be said that things have reached such a point that it is no longer a mistake of the means adopted by the First Emperor back then.
Yingqin, who knew these things, heard what her father-in-law said to her after being silent for a long time:
"Your Royal Highness Princess, since General Zuo has become the person with whom the first emperor has high hopes, he may have done something that makes you feel unhappy, but I still have to say a word here, if even General Zuo is left alone, then the Great Qin Empire may be completely wiped out in so many years. ”
After Gonggong Xi said this, he bowed to Yingqin and retired.
And Yingqin was in this place, and after thinking about it for a long time, she decided to do what she could.
After all, her body still flows with the blood of the imperial family of the Great Qin Empire......
...................................................... Dividing Line................................................
After Zhang Jiashi returned to his home, he was stunned to see the lineup of almost the whole family to greet him.
Especially the two women who were holding their children, after the other party said a word, Zhang Jiashi showed a relieved smile.
These two women are Zhang Jiashi's two wives, Princess Yingxi and Ying Lian.
And the words they uttered were: "Husband, welcome home." ”
This sentence is not too long, but for Zhang Jiashi, it is not the most touching words for him.
Because, once again, he returned to his home in this era, and saw the people he loved, and the people who were waiting for his return......
......
After eating a meal, Zhang Jiashi looked at Yingxi and Ying Lian, revealing an expression that made the two girls blush.
As the closest people around Zhang Jiashi, the two Great Qin princesses naturally knew very well what Zhang Jiashi's expression meant.
But they didn't agree to Zhang Jiashi, but looked at each other with red faces and a somewhat complicated expression, and only then did they say a sentence under Zhang Jiashi's puzzled eyes:
"When the husband returns, he should take a good bath and relax. ”
"Hmm......" Zhang Jiashi nodded, then looked at his wife with two children in his arms, and went to help him arrange such a thing.
Zhang Jiashi was very puzzled, but he didn't know what was wrong. After all, in Zhang Jiashi's heart, it was not wrong for Yingxi and Yinglian to arrange him like this.
......
Zhang Jiashi, who was taking a bath, naturally didn't know one thing, that is, when he was taking a bath, Yingxi and Ying Lian looked at their sister with very complicated expressions.
Wei Ying'er had already fallen asleep, and the three sisters got together at such a time, so naturally it was not as simple as chatting.
And Yingxi and Yinglian, of course, are also mentally prepared for such a situation, but when such a thing really happens, and it is their sister who makes such a request, the two sisters are not surprised and feel that they are a little unacceptable.
That's right, after getting the news of Zhang Jiashi's return, that is, some time after noon, Ying Qin said to his two younger sisters: "Tonight, can you let my sister serve General Zuo?"
To be honest, Yingxi and Ying Lian were really surprised that their sister said this sentence so directly. After they came back to their senses, they looked at each other, and then looked at their sister for a long time before Yingxi whispered, "Why did Sister Qin do this?"
Yingxi, who said this, naturally didn't think that Yingqin wanted to compete for their position, let alone that Yingqin wanted to harm them.
After their brother-in-law Wei Chong died in the raid of the Donghu people, Yingqin basically lived by their side for more than a year, and for this peaceful and quiet widowed sister, to be honest, the two sisters knew very well that some things were almost not really done.
They are not stupid, nor are they the kind of people who don't think about problems, although it is said that Yingqin's residence in General Zuo's Mansion is more arranged by his father. But for a widow, Yingqin's existence will always cause some gossip.
In Liaodong County, maybe they couldn't have heard such things with their own ears, but they were ...... other places They don't want to think about it, either.
However, it is impossible for them to kick out their sister and niece.
After all, they have a good relationship, and it is difficult to do such a thing that is quite unsightly in the eyes of outsiders.
Let everything remain as it is, it is a consensus among them.
Zhang Jiashi has never done anything about such a thing, which makes the three of them, since they are relieved, they also have a trace of helplessness.
It's not that Yingxi and Yinglian want to see such a thing become true, but in this case, it is just a matter of time.
Therefore, their inquiries about Yingqin are more about knowing what their sister's plans are.
If you want them to oppose it, they can do it, but they won't do it, and they won't stop it from happening. Because it's too late to talk about such a question.
And hearing his sister's inquiry, a fleeting light flashed in Yingqin's eyes.
For Ying Qin, she put forward such an idea, not entirely hoping that she would have a reliance again, nor was it entirely for her daughter, she hoped that Zhang Jiashi could be more able to tie the Great Qin Empire to the other party.
Because, she is a woman, but she also has the same blood as Yingxi and Yinglian.
In fact, she herself knows very well that her idea is more wishful thinking, after all, she doesn't think that Zhang Jiashi will be the kind of person who is alone, otherwise, he would not have consolidated his strength as much as possible and protected them, who should have died at the hands of Zhao Gao and Hu Hai a long time ago.
But she couldn't say such a thought, because she was afraid that the relationship between the sisters would gradually become estranged because of such a sentence.
So, she smiled slightly and said to her two younger sisters, "Two sisters, I'm just a woman. ”
Hearing Yingqin's words, Yingxi and Ying Lian glanced at each other, while Ying Lian was looking at his third sister and said a sentence:
"In that case, then I have to cheapen that bastard surnamed Zhang. ”
The bastard surnamed Zhang, that is, Ying Lian would call the man who was younger than Yingqin, and Yingqin and Yingxi, who heard this, covered their mouths with their hands and chuckled.
......
Zhang Jiashi naturally didn't know such a situation, after taking a shower, he returned to his room, but saw a person in the room who startled him.
He was about to retreat, but was gently grabbed by a jade hand.
The other party smiled and said, "General Zuo, are you so surprised when you see Princess Ben?"
That's right, Zhang Jiashi, who seems to be unable to move now, sees Yingqin, that is, the eldest princess in the actual sense of the current Great Qin Empire.
When he heard what the other party said, he had to vomit in his heart: "Isn't this nonsense, who wouldn't be surprised when they encounter such a thing?"
However, it is impossible for Zhang Jiashi to say such a sentence.
For him, it seemed like he had to figure out what the hell was going on.
He won't go into the wrong room, this room was originally his bedroom with Yingxi, and even his precious son's bed can be seen clearly.
Then, it's not this problem, it's Yingxi who took her son to other places, and Her Royal Highness the princess happened to have something to find her.
Zhang Jiashi knew very well that it was quite impossible for him to have such an idea, after all, it was obviously unreasonable for the other party to hold him like this.
However, he still had to say something like this: "Your Royal Highness Princess, are you here to find Xi'er......?
Ying Qin interrupted Zhang Jiashi's words angrily, and looked at the other party with complaining eyes: "Could it be ...... General Zuo really wants to pretend to be stupid and pretend to be so thorough?"
After saying this, Yingqin gently leaned her body in front of Zhang Jiashi's body.
Zhang Jiashi's mind suddenly felt as if he had been directly struck by thunder, in such a situation, he didn't know what was going on, so he could also jump into the Liao River.
However, knowing what is going on does not mean that you have to do such a thing so easily.
He didn't break free of Yingqin, but asked a sentence: "Your Royal Highness, why are you doing this." ”
Ying Qin, who heard this, raised her head and looked at Zhang Jiashi: "I'm just an ordinary woman, General Zuo, am I wrong for doing this?"
Zhang Jiashi wanted to say something, but what was waiting for him was Yingqin, who stood on tiptoe, and kissed him gently......
...................................................... Dividing Line................................................
The next morning, Zhang Jiashi woke up and saw Yingqin with his arm pillowing and gently leaning his body against him.
But how to deal with such a thing, Zhang Jiashi was a little confused.
And the most important problem is not this matter, but Yingqin's ability to do this, and his two wives can be described as "indispensable".
"Hmmm......"
A low murmur sounded beside Zhang Jiashi, and Zhang Jiashi turned his head, looking at Yingqin's slowly opening eyes, the two sides looked at each other, and showed a satisfied smile one after another.
Why is Zhang Jiashi satisfied...... What's this...... Ahem, last night's experience can't be told to outsiders (...... )。
And why Yingqin is satisfied, Zhang Jiashi may know the answer very clearly about this matter.
Regarding what happened between the two last night, Zhang Jiashi was certainly able to deal with it, but Zhang Jiashi also remembered a very classic sentence, that is:
One of the things a man likes to hear is when the person he loves says to him, "I want it." And the last thing he wanted to hear was that the person he loved said to him, "I still want it." ”
Zhang Jiashi then shook his head and waved away such an idea......
After all, he didn't think this would happen to him.
