Two more days passed, and with the departure of the Tatar mission, the lives of the people of Shenjing returned to peace, and for ordinary people, the major events of the national dynasty were too far away from their lives.

Jia Jue handed a letter that had just been written to Jia Gui, "You take a team of people to Jinling immediately, and when you see your aunt, you ask him to make all preparations..... You must hand over this letter to the king of Dongping County. By the way, you cross the Yellow River and go to Jinling via Henan, not Shandong. ”

Jia Gui: "Third master, rest assured! ”

Jia Jue: "Go!" ”

Looking at Jia Gui's departing figure, Jia Jue sighed, three days ago he had already learned about the Yangzhou riots from the captured Wara spies, but it was not until today that the imperial court received the military report from the king of Dongping County, two days later than the expected time, the military envoy was intercepted and killed on the road, and only two people escaped with the military report.

His eyes stared at the military newspaper copied by the Ministry of War in front of him, and after a while, Jia Jue picked up his pen and wrote another letter, sealed the envelope, and put it in the letterbox.

Amber hurriedly handed over a towel, Jia Jue wiped his face, and said to Jia Fu who was standing on the side: "You send this to Qi Guogong, hurry." ”

"Yes."

Jaffo took the letterbox, turned and walked out.

Jia Jue stretched and rested on the back of his chair.

Amber walked over gently, carefully kneading Jia Jue's shoulder, and said, "Third Master, you have been busy all morning, it's time to rest." ”

Jia Jue sighed, "It's okay, it's good to be busy for a while.... By the way, there is something to eat, a little hungry. ”

"I know you're hungry."

Amber smiled, "Someone will be here in a moment." ”

Jia Jue was a little strange and looked up at the door.

After a while, Xiangling walked in with a tray, Jia Jue raised his eyes, and a bowl of fragrant scallion oil noodles was delivered to him.

"It smells so good!"

Jia Jue hurriedly took a sip, and then took a big gulp, "Well, it tastes good." ”

Amber covered her mouth and smiled, "Third Master guess who did it?" ”

Jia Jue put down the bowl and looked at her, "Didn't you make it from the kitchen?" ”

Xiangling replied softly, "I did it." ”

"Oh?"

Jia Jue was stunned for a moment, picked up the bowl and ate again.

"The third master doesn't believe it? I specifically asked Mama Li to learn. ”

Xiangling pouted and muttered.

"Well, you've changed your temper?"

Jia Jue put down the bowl and said with a smile: "If it weren't for your face, I would have thought it was Zijuan." ”

Xiangling walked to Jia Jue's side and stopped, pinching the corners of her clothes tightly.

Jia Jue held her hand and said, "I'm teasing you, I won't leave you in Shenjing, don't believe it, ask you Sister Amber." ”

Amber cleaned up the table and poured another bowl of hot tea for Jia Jue, "The third master is just scaring you, why wouldn't he take you to Jinling with him." ”

Xiangling quietly took Raja Jue's hand and whispered: "Third master, I will be obedient in the future, I won't make you angry, don't drive me away, I will do anything." ”

"Oh?"

Jia Jue looked at her with a smile, "You can compose poems, well, the noodles are not bad, what else?" ”

Xiangling's face flushed, "I, I can wash the clothes for the third master, and also, I can also warm the bed...."

Jia Jue smiled dumbly, patted her face and smiled: "Who taught you these words?" ”

Xiangling lowered her little head and said in a muffled voice: "It was Sister Amber who taught me." ”

"Shameless little hoof, when am I going to teach you these words?"

Amber was stunned for a moment, and tapped her forehead with her long, thin hand, "Tonight, you serve the third master to wash his face and feet, and warm the bed!" ”

Xiangling's face flushed with shame, bit her lip, and said in a low voice: "I served the third master in the old mansion of Jinling, and I didn't do it before." ”

"That's it! All right! Don't talk about it. ”

Jia Jue hurriedly picked up the tea bowl and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has approved my fold, the official ship is being packed, you are also ready to prepare, or we will leave in a few days." ”

"Great!"

Xiangling has been dangling in front of him in order to let Jia Jue agree to take her south to Jinling, and she specially asked Mama Li to learn cooking, today she finally got her wish, and she was very happy in her heart, she wanted to go to her mother's grave.

At this moment, the housekeeper Jia Zhong led Wang Shanbao over, "Third master, Wang Shanbao is back." ”

Wang Shanbao fell to his knees on the ground, "Third master, my uncle's family has been brought into Beijing, my uncle went to my lord's study, and my uncle and Miss Biao were welcomed to Rongqing Hall by Lian's second grandmother. ”

Jia Jue was stunned, "It's hard work, get up and talk back." ”

Wang Shanbao: "Yes. ”

"It's safe along the way, let's talk about the general situation."

"Yes."

Wang Shanbao is also a well-spoken person, otherwise he could not be reused by Jia Yu, and soon told him about the situation on the way back, especially some changes on the canal, such as the conflict between Cao Ding and the soldiers of Cao Yun Yamen at Huai'an Wharf, and sprinkled most of the time of the incense.

Miaoyu has entered Beijing?

Jia Juemeng, why did this fake nun enter Beijing at this time?

"Third Master."

Amber quietly tugged at Raja Jue's sleeve, cautioning her.

Jia Jue came back to his senses and waved his hand, "Okay, this trip has worked hard for you, take a good rest for a few days." ”

said to Jia Zhong, who was standing by the door, and said: "Go to the account room to pay five hundred taels of silver, ten taels for each of the little maids-in-law, thirty taels for each of the personal soldiers, and fifty taels for Wang Shanbao." ”

"Thank you, Third Master."

"Go ahead!"

Jia Jue also stood up, "Let's go, let's go and join in the fun." ”

.......

Rongqing Hall, in Jia's mother's house, I saw the house full of beads and greenery, flowers and branches, Jia's mother sat on the soft couch, was hugging a girl in a half-old light gray cloth skirt to talk, Wang Xifeng stood on the side and laughed with him.

Baoyu also came around, carefully looking at the eldest lady's niece, at first glance it was inconspicuous, but after a closer look, she felt that she had a special temperament, what it was, Baoyu couldn't figure it out for a while.

Jia Mu stretched out her hand and pulled Baoyu over, and said with a smile: "Xing Yatou has just entered Beijing, you are not allowed to bully her." ”

He pointed to Baoyu and introduced: "This is Baoyu, oh, by the way, you two are the same age." ”

Wang Xifeng smiled: "Hehe, the ancestor doesn't know yet, the two of them still have the same birthday." ”

After being stunned for a short time, Jia Mu nodded and smiled: "It's better this way, you have to get along well in the future." ”

"If the ancestor likes Xiuyan, why don't you let her live at home."

"That's it, that's it, the old ancestor will leave Sister Xing behind."

"Good! Ha ha.... There's no need to rush to arrange, Xing Yatou will rest with me tonight. ”

Saying that, Jia Mu took Xing Xiuyan's hand and looked at it carefully, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, although she was born in a poor family, she was a simple and elegant woman, gentle and demure, elegant and steady.

"Old lady, the third master is here!"

As he was talking, he heard the maid outside the door say loudly.

Everyone in the hall heard the maid's report, except for Jia's mother, Mrs. Xing, and Mrs. Wang, the other sisters all stood up to greet each other, but Xing's mother wanted to get up but was stopped by Li Kun's outstretched hand.

"Say hello to my ancestors."

After Jia Jue came in, he first greeted Jia's mother, and then walked up to Mrs. Xing and bowed, "I've seen Mrs." ”

Mrs. Xing smiled again and again: "Okay, good ....."

He turned around and walked to Mrs. Wang, bowed his hand and said, "I've seen the second wife...."

Madame Wang nodded.

Wang Xifeng leaned over and said with a smile: "This is my uncle's wife." ”

After listening to Wang Xifeng's words, Jia Jue walked up to Xing's mother and bowed, "I've seen my uncle." ”

Xing's mother didn't know why, so she hurriedly got up.

Mrs. Xing hurriedly pulled her to sit down, "This is Lian'er's younger brother, Brother Jue'er, who is also the head of the Zhongwu Bo Mansion next door, serving as an official in the court, leading the errands of the Rui Shi Battalion and the Military Department, and the guards who escorted you into Beijing are his personal soldiers." ”

Xing's mother hurriedly got up and saluted, "The grass people pay a visit to the uncle." ”

Mrs. Xing's smile froze, and Mrs. Wang, who had been looking at this side, showed a disdainful look, in the end, she was born in a small family, she had never seen the world, and she didn't know the etiquette of a big family at all.

"Come on, come on, this is Xiuyan, born in the same year as Baoyu, or on the same birthday. Xiuyan, this is your cousin, you are just like Tanchun and them, just call him the third brother! ”

Xing Xiuyan was slightly blessed and said softly: "I've seen the third brother!" ”

"No need to be polite, it's all your own family, and you can play with them in the spring when you have nothing to do in the future, don't see outsiders."

said, looking at Wang Xifeng, "How did my sister-in-law arrange it?" ”

Mrs. Xing hurriedly said: "Lian'er went to the office, your uncle just came and has no place to live, you look at it and make arrangements." ”

Jia Jue was stunned for a moment, the co-authors had arrived, and the residence had not been prepared yet.

After thinking about it, he said to Wang Shanbao's family who was standing on the side: "Go and tell Uncle Zhong and let him take someone to clean up the two-entry courtyard in the back street, quickly!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Mrs. Xing said again: "Since you have lived, you can't live without a livelihood, you see....."

Jia Jue scratched his head, and he couldn't catch a single wool, so he could only say: "Uncle has just entered Beijing, rest for a few days, and I will ask Yun'er to find a suitable errand." ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Xing felt that her face was bright, and she was happy in her heart, so she said with a smile: "It's hard for you, they don't have much knowledge, you should take care of it more in the future." ”

"Haha, don't worry about it, wife, leave the matter to our uncle, and you will do it beautifully."

Wang Xifeng is a person who can do things, and soon the scene became lively.

When distant relatives came to the door, they wanted to set up a banquet to catch the wind, and the banquet was prepared in the flower hall and the wine and food were put on the table.
