Shenjing, which had not had been windy for several days since October, had a gentle breeze that afternoon, and it was already whining.

There was silence in the Fengzao Palace, and a female official was directing several small yellow doors to prune flowers and trees.

In the dormitory, Yuan Chun sat on the soft couch and looked at the book in front of him casually.

Baoqin walked in front of Yuan Chun with a bowl of tea, "Niangniang, rest, I'm tired of you, but it's a big sin ....."

Yuan Chun took the tea and said with a smile: "In the past, in Cining Palace, I stood for two or three hours a day, and I didn't see anything, where is it so delicate?" ”

Baoqin hurriedly said: "It's different, you are the master now, you have to be careful." The old lady and the lady have specially instructed you to ....."

Yuan Chun smiled again, "Okay! Stop nagging. Then he put away his smile: "Why hasn't Xiao Lizi come back yet?" ”

In the past two days, Yuanchun's mood has been quite troubled, and the smile on his face is rarely seen, one of the reasons is that it is due to rumors, since the Tatar prince Babur wrote to impeach Jia Jue, the rumors in the Shenjing market that Jia Jue killed the Tatar Khan and snatched the Tatar ancestors, Shuntianfu has arrested more than a dozen people who spread rumors, but it has no effect, and the matter is getting worse and worse.

The most important thing is that Babur is the body, he bit it to death is Jia Jue killed his father Bayan Khan, he didn't believe the military report sent by Nanzhen Fusi at all, and would kneel outside the noon gate every day to ask the emperor to avenge him.

This made some Qing gossip officials and the political enemies of the Jia family see the opportunity, and they have written to ask the emperor to issue an order for the three law divisions to be reviewed, fortunately, the emperor does not want to cause a civil and military dispute at this time, and the matter is suppressed, but, early in the morning, Jia's mother entered the palace to bring her a bad news, and the criminal department found a large number of Tatar gold and silver utensils in the house outside the city of Zhou Rui's son-in-law, some of which were still used to worship ancestors.

Yuan Chun understands that things are not so simple, she is not only upset by this matter, but there is an undercurrent against the Jia family in the court, and this undercurrent also calculates her, Prince Jia?

Yuan Chun sighed secretly, is it because he has affected the family?

Suddenly, Eunuch Xiao Li broke in like a gust of wind, panting, "Back, back..... Master Hou is back...."

..........

Zhu Wucheng sat in front of the imperial eucalyptus in the Heart Cultivation Palace, looking at Jia Jue with a smile.

Jia Jue sat on a chair opposite Liu Wenbin and carefully flipped through the file in his hand.

Zhu Wucheng: "Second assistant, you tell the matter to the Marquis of Zhongwu." ”

Liu Wenbin: "Yes. Then he gave a general account of what had happened in the city of Shenjing in the past few days, especially about the emperor's will and how the cabinet had dealt with the matter.

Jia Jue closed the file, stood up, bowed and said, "Thank the emperor for Longen." ”

Zhu Wucheng stretched out his hand and helped him, "You fought for the imperial court in front of you, you suffered, I am grateful to you from the bottom of my heart, not to say that I believe in you, I have made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty with you, these are not worth mentioning." Also, these false courtesies will be waived in the future, sit down and speak. ”

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

Jia Jue bowed and sat down.

Zhu Wucheng glanced at Liu Wenbin.

Liu Wenbin: "Master Hou, you said in the military newspaper that Zhu Houze fled to Lingbei, I don't know how to judge?" ”

Jia Jue owed a debt, hugged his fists and said: "Tanglu Lingbei, southwest of the Qian River, surrounded by mountains, fertile land, rich water resources, not only suitable for grazing and hunting, but also more suitable for farming. ”

Zhu Wucheng was taken aback, "Where it also fell into the hands of the Warats?" ”

Jia Jue: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister also learned after capturing Zhu Houze's family scroll that the minister had sent a partial division to Lingbei to fight, but unfortunately, due to insufficient troops, the matter was suspended. ”

Liu Wenbin sighed, "It's a pity that after a big battle, the treasury is empty, otherwise we will definitely send troops to Lingbei to completely wipe out the remnants of Wara." ”

Jia Jue smiled slightly, "Second assistant rest assured, this battle of Helin completely defeated the Warat people, captured a large number of young and strong men, plus Zhenguo Gong swept all the tribes in the southwest grassland of Hangai Mountain, without more than ten years, the Warat people can't slow down at all." ”

Zhu Wucheng took advantage of the situation and asked, "Do you not need 100,000 soldiers and horses for Helin and Hulan to lose temperature?" Can you cut some of it? ”

Jia Jue shook his head, and stood up in the puzzled eyes of the two, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the reason why the Central Plains Dynasty has never been able to control Guanwai for a long time is that there are basically no Han people in these places, and the long-term military stationing will cause contradictions and conflicts between the two sides. Chancellor suggested immigrating to the steppe. ”

"This...."

Liu Wenbin hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "It's hard to leave the homeland!" ”

Jia Jue: "In recent years, land annexation has been very serious, which has caused contradictions, and the migration of Han people can not only make the grassland gradually sinicized, but also alleviate the intensification of contradictions caused by land annexation in China. ”

Zhu Wucheng spoke, "I heard that the cold snap in the southwest will sweep south and sweep the entire prairie every autumn and winter, can it be done?" ”

Jia Jue smiled, "Your Majesty Shengming! The reason why the Han Dynasty occupied Hangai Mountain and forced the Xiongnu to move west was because they lost the shelter of the mountains and could not escape the cold winter, so we only needed to build a few small and medium-sized cities along a few mountain ranges. Although the desert steppe is large, these mountains are the roots of the grassland people. ”

Liu Wenbin nodded.

Zhu Wucheng pondered for a while, and then said: "You write an excerpt about this matter, and I will seriously consider it." ”

Jia Jue: "Yes. ”

Zhu Wucheng was a little distracted, and after a while, he suddenly woke up and smiled bitterly, "You have worked hard all the way, I won't leave you anymore, go back and rest." ”

Speaking of this, he paused, and said: "Henan Hou will leave in two days, you have time to meet." ”

Jia Jue didn't think much about it, and hurriedly bowed and saluted: "If Your Majesty has nothing to order, the minister will leave first." ”

........

Outside the Zhengyang Gate, Jia Jue took Yuan Chun's letter and tore it up, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he grabbed the letter and said to Jia Gui: "You go to Beizhen Fusi first." After speaking, he waved his horsewhip and headed for Xicheng.

It's already getting dark.

Daiyu was in an unusually good mood, and she seemed to walk much lighter than usual.

Before she reached the courtyard gate, Mama Wang greeted her, "Girl, Mama Li just came, saying that the third master has returned to Beijing, and this time she will enter the palace." ”

"Really?"

Daiyu was stunned for a moment, and that little surprise could overflow.

Zijuan smiled, "The girl should go into the house first, the third master must go to the old lady's house first when he comes back, the time is early." ”

"It's just you."

Daiyu pursed her lips and walked to the chair under the window of the room and sat down.

Zijuan cleaned up her desk, "I'll go get some hot water first." ”

"Hmm."

Daiyu waved her hand, picked up a book, and looked at it heartlessly.

With a creak, the door opened.

She thought it was Qingwen or Snow Goose, but she didn't hear any movement for a long time, and when she looked up, she couldn't help but be surprised.

"Yikes!"

Daiyu was startled and stood up reluctantly, "When did you come back.... Yes! ”

She only felt that her body was light, and she was picked up by the man and turned around twice, and before she could stand firmly, she was hugged into her arms.

"Hmm...."

Finally broke away, Daiyu was panting, her face was flushed, and she slapped the man twice in shame, "Don't let you do this!" ”

After a pause, he said, "Have you been to the old lady's house?" ”

"Just entered the mansion, did you miss me?"

"Phew! Shameless, you let me go...."

Jia Jue let go of her and leaned on the couch, "I'm hungry!" ”

Daiyu looked at him and sighed, "You shouldn't have come here at this time." While sorting out his clothes, he shouted, "Mother Song, bring the porridge on the stove." ”

Jia Jue smiled, "It's okay, the old lady just finished eating, and she must rest." ”

Daiyu said angrily: "If the old lady hears it, she will have to say that you are not filial." ”

"Girl, the porridge is ready!"

Outside, Mother Song carefully held the tray.

Daiyu: "Come in." ”

Mother Song: "Yes." He lifted the curtain and walked into the room with a tray.

Daiyu picked up the porridge bowl and handed it over with a spoon.

Jia Jue took the porridge bowl and glanced at Song's mother: "That's all?" ”

“.....”

Mother Song was stunned.

"Poof!"

Daiyu Yile, "Zijuan still has half a bowl of rice left, you either?" ”

"Uh....."

Mother Song went out with a smile, and after a while, brought in the half bowl of rice.

Jia Jue took a look, tsk, rouge rice.

Pouring the porridge into the rice, Jia Jue held a bowl of porridge and ate it.

Looking at Jia Jue, who was gobbling up, Daiyu smiled.
