The room was filled with the smell of medicine, and Amber was sitting in front of a small silver-carbon stove, the pot steaming hot.

Xichun's illness has not yet healed, Jia Jue ordered someone to take his post to invite Li Dongbi, the head of the Tai Hospital, to diagnose the pulse, and re-prescribe the medicine, Amber stood in front of the medicine jar, then opened the lid of the medicine jar, gently blew away the white vapor in the cage, stirred it in the medicine jar with silver, and felt that the heat was almost over, so he used iron tongs to clip out a few pieces of red charcoal in the small stove, and fried it for a while over low heat, and the mother-in-law next to him stepped forward to help, but Amber waved his hand and signaled himself to come.

She carefully poured the medicine into the bowl, picked up the plate and walked out of the small fire room.

There was a light snow in the sky, and the white snowflakes were fluttering, and the mother-in-law hurriedly opened the umbrella, at this time, Li Kun walked in with a cloak and a big coat, and the maid Suyun followed her with a tarpaulin snow umbrella.

Amber: "Grandma is here. ”

"What did the Imperial Doctor say?"

"It's not a big problem, just take two doses of medicine."

Li Kun nodded, looking at the medicine in her hand, "It's hard for you." ”

Amber smiled: "It's not hard. While laughing, he walked towards the spring house.

Although it was snowing outside, the house was warm as spring, Daiyu and Baochai sat under the window, and on the eucalyptus table was a game of Go that went down to the middle game, Daiyu picked up a white piece and gently put it on the chessboard, Baochai was stunned for a moment, and then picked up the sunspot and put it on the chessboard, and Xing Xiuyan next to him looked at the chessboard and thought bitterly.

The book is placed with pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Jia Jue stood in front of the book with a pen in his hand, and Baoyu, Xiangyun, Yingchun, Tanchun and Xichun were standing or sitting, all watching Jia Jue paint.

Xiangyun swallowed melon seeds, looked at Jia Jue who was painting, and asked him with a smile: "Third brother, the picture of the eight horses is the eight good horses that King Zhou Mu drove for when he visited Kunlun. Tang Dynasty poet Li Shangyin's "Yao Chi" said, "Eight horses travel 30,000 miles a day, King Mu doesn't do it again", that horse is a god horse that travels 30,000 miles a day, you are just painting some ordinary horses, and only a shape, and this, this...... Haha, if you don't look closely, you think it's a cripple...."

Tanchun was suckered: "What are you talking about?" I don't understand a word. ”

Xichun hugged Jia Jue uprightly: "The third brother painted so well that you can still see that it is a horse, you said yesterday to draw me a little rabbit, if it weren't for looking at the two very long rabbit ears, I would have thought that you painted the cat in the house of the second sister-in-law." ”

Xiang Yundeng blushed, glared at Xichun, and said, "Bai hurts you!" ”

"Hee-hee."

Yingchun, Tanchun and others all laughed.

"Say what? One by one, they are so happy! ”

As soon as the curtain was lifted, Li Kun walked in and said with a smile: "The old lady asked the kitchen to make breakfast for you, and none of you came over, no, let me come over and take a look." ”

Jia Jue raised his head: "Sister-in-law Zhu is here, please take a seat." ”

Li Kun walked up, looked at it twice, and said with a smile: "Eight Horse Pictures? You're really Yaxing! ”

Jia Jue was stunned: "Sister-in-law has something?" ”

Seeing this, Li Kun glanced at Su Yun.

Su Yun understood, took out a post from his sleeve, and gently placed it on the book.

Jia Jue a policeman: "What is it?" ”

Li Kun: "You will understand when you read it. ”

Jia Jue only glanced at the cover of the post, then gently pushed the post away and continued to paint.

Li Kun sighed, "It's not what you think, Yan Shenggong said, heaven and earth are not kind, how innocent are the people?" In the past year, the Ming Dynasty has frequent disasters, all because of the personnel not repaired, the personnel are not repaired, all are the fault of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, this is a disaster from heaven, is a punishment for the civil and military officials, and the hundred officials need to pray for blessings on the winter solstice. That's why Lan'er's grandfather accepted this request. ”

Jia Jue said while painting: "God is going to snow, what can I do?" ”

Li Kun: "Lan'er's grandfather said that the cabinet has agreed to this matter, and has reported to the emperor, the cabinet, the six ministries and nine secretaries will discuss the process of praying for heaven in Wenyuan Pavilion tomorrow, it's not good if you don't go!" ”

Jia Jue put the brush aside, sighed, and didn't answer Li Kun's words, but asked the Tanchun people who were standing aside: "Yan Shenggong said that this snow disaster is God's punishment for the Ming Dynasty, what do you think?" ”

Tanchun: "Zi is silent, strange and confused. ”

Yingchun smiled slightly: "Confucius also said that worshipping God is like God, and it always does not hurt to fear God." ”

Speaking of this, Baoyu became energetic: "I don't know if you believe it or not, anyway, I really believe it." ”

Xichun looked surprised: "Second Brother Bao, they all said that you fainted after colliding with your father, is it true?" ”

Everyone was in one place.

"Uh....."

Baoyu sweated profusely, and said timidly: "I, my godmother knows a little magic, she can please come to her senses, and she can talk about it." ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Seeing this, Tanchun stepped forward, wiped his sweat, and said: "Second Brother Bao, don't be in a hurry, cherish the spring is still young, don't take it seriously." ”

Daiyu and Baochai glanced at each other and smiled knowingly.

Seeing this, Jia Jue shook his head, what please God, this is Ma Daopo's strong business ability, not only will she know some tricks, but also know the importance of intelligence, otherwise, how to say eight or nine is not far from ten, this can also see how chaotic the Jia family was before, even a god stick woman can easily inquire about the affairs of the inner house, and it is a great irony for the Jia family.

As for Baoyu and Wang Xifeng being mad by Ma Daopo, most of them are also some Jianghu methods.

Li Kun sighed again: "No matter what, it's all kind, the old lady means, try not to let people gossip." ”

"Kind?"

Jia Jue sneered: "If he really has this heart, he should go to the Temple of Heaven and Earth to fast and pray for blessings, with such fanfare, he just wants to win a little popular favor so as to wash away the stigma on his body." ”

The eyes of the crowd widened.

Li Kun shook his head and said with a wry smile: "The Kong family donated all the grain in the grain store to the imperial court, and took out 100,000 taels to compensate the people suffering on Andingmen Street. ”

After a pause, "The Kong family has already gone outside the city to recruit young people to renovate their houses, and it is said that they will recruit 3,000 people." ”

There was silence.

Amber saw that the medicine was about to cool, so she hurriedly walked up and said, "Fourth girl, it's time to drink the medicine." ”

"Third Brother ....."

Xichun looked at Jia Jue aggrievedly, and the tears in her eyes flashed out.

Jia Jue smiled lightly, touched her head, and said, "Imperial Doctor Li said that your illness seems to have improved a lot, but the medicine must be taken, even if the illness is cured, you have to take it for two more days." Be obedient, my brother will buy you candy to eat. ”

Xichun was suddenly embarrassed to lean on Yingchun's arms.

Yingchun smiled lightly and said: "We cherish the spring girl, and we don't eat sugar for a long time." "Take the medicine from Amber's hand," come, open your mouth and drink it. ”

Xichun's face turned white!

Seeing that Xichun was a little cowering, Jia Jue shook his head, but this medicine is really bitter!

Yingchun raised his head and said to the outside world: "Si Qi, take some of the vermilion oranges sent by Mrs. Order." ”

Hearing this, Xichun gritted her teeth, drank the medicine with her eyes closed, trembled slightly, tightened Yingchun's hand and held her, and said softly: "It's so bitter." ”

Yingchun couldn't breathe when he smiled, and raised his hand to point on Xichun's forehead, "Little gluttonous cat, you can eat one more today." ”

Jia Jue picked up the post and looked at it, and threw it to Amber casually, "Send it to the second master." ”

"Poof...."

Lin Daiyu suddenly laughed, Jia Jue turned her head to look at her, "What are you laughing at?" ”

"You care about me!"

Daiyu glanced at him, picked up a white piece and put it heavily on the chessboard, and said to Baochai: "Sister Bao, it's your turn." ”

Baochai glanced at Daiyu inexplicably, really didn't understand what was wrong with her, and nodded indifferently.

Looking at Daiyu who was possessed by Lin Daiyu, Jia Jue was also confused, as if he hadn't done anything or said anything.

Tanchun looked at Daiyu, then at Xiangyun, and sighed silently.

At this moment, Mama Li hurriedly walked in and whispered a few words in Jia Jue's ear.

Jia Jue frowned: "Oh? Where is he now? ”

Mama Li: "I'll let him wait outside the second gate." ”

"I'm not going to the military department tonight, you let the kitchen prepare the meal, and everyone will have dinner together." Jia Jue was obviously talking to Daiyu when he said this.

Daiyu lowered her head: "You can get busy." ”

Jia Jue: "Invite the old lady over." ”

Daiyu was stunned for a moment, and had to reply, "Got it." ”

..............

Heavy snow is falling.

Nearly a thousand young men suddenly came outside the deserted Andingmen City, which frightened the officers and forbidden soldiers guarding the gate, but fortunately, it was a false alarm.

These young men formed a mighty long line, and together with the two of them, they slowly stepped forward to be searched by the forbidden army, and then walked into the city gate cave and went to Andingmen Street.

The Kong family acted very quickly, and after obtaining the permission of the cabinet, they quickly selected 1,000 young men from among the refugees, and another 2,000 young men will be selected one after another.

"Hurry up! Hurry up! Say what about you! ”

"Raise your hand, untie your clothes, and look at what! Tell you to untie your clothes! ”

"The people in the back listened, untied the padded jacket, and the waist was exposed!"

In the midst of the commotion, the procession marched slowly, and everyone looked around, except for a tall and burly man who stopped and looked up at the majestic city wall, with an excited look in his eyes.

At this moment, his body was suddenly pushed, and the man turned around, only to see the young man behind him stunned.

The man frowned, and asked in a low voice, "What for?!" ”

The young man came back to his senses and said timidly: "No..... It's nothing. ”

The man looked at him and said coldly, "It's better to be like this." ”

The young man seemed to be a little cringe.

The man took advantage of the victory and asked: "You can't bring the knife with you, right?!" ”

The young man's voice trembled a little: "The knife, the knife is gone." ”

The man was stunned: "What did you say?" ”

Youth: "The knife is gone." ”

The man's face turned pale and he took a deep breath: "Did you remember the wrong place?" ”

The young man was a little upside down: "The knife..... I..... I'll put it, I'll put it..... Bury the knife in, bury it in the ....."

The man shouted: "Where are you buried?" ”

Youth: "In the grove northeast of the official road. ”

The man: "I know, the trees in that woods are the same, maybe you remembered the wrong location in a panic." ”

The young man glanced at him: "The inscription on the knife and knife has not been completely sharpened. ”

The man's face also became solemn, and he pondered for a while, then sighed and said, "You must not say anything about this matter, just don't have such a thing, I hope it is a false alarm." ”

..............

Jia Jue, Niu Jizong, and Chen Ruiwen sat silently in front of a large brazier, and the blazing charcoal fire reflected the faces of all three people.

There was a standard waist knife of the Ming army by the brazier.

Niu Jizong stood up suddenly, lost his previous bearing, and became very irritable and angry: "He really left a hand." quietly raised a private army in Jizhou, which is ruthless enough! Looks like he's determined to be restored! ”

Jia Jue and Chen Ruiwen glanced at each other, and then asked, "What should I do then?" ”

Niu Jizong was stunned, and immediately replied loudly: "Of course I destroyed them!" ”

Chen Ruiwen threw the tongs in his hand and shouted: "Their father and son are fighting, what are you doing!" ”

Jia Jue: "I inquired yesterday, the Emperor Taishang is very dissatisfied with the King of Yizhong, it is likely that he will not abolish today, first, he has no choice, and second, he understands that he will not live long." ”

Niu Jizong was stunned: "Then what does he want to do?" ”

Jia Jue: "Maybe he once thought about restoration, but he suddenly found that if he abolished the present, the Ming Dynasty would face the crisis of being weak and strong at any time, what do you think he would do?" ”

After a pause: "Mobei has become the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the Jurchens have also been driven to North Korea by the Liaodong Army, and the Japanese on the southeast coast have been swept away, it is no exaggeration to say that there will be no beacon fire in the frontier of the Ming Dynasty in at least ten years." ”

Chen Ruiwen's eyes flashed, and he said, "You mean that the Emperor Taishang is actually coming for us!" ”

Niu Jizong's eyes lit up: "So the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony of the Winter Solstice Temple of Heaven and Earth is a conspiracy against the noble military!" ”

Jia Jue slowly got up from the chair and walked to the window: "You can't hide." The soldiers and horses of the three battalions of Xiaoyong, Yangwei, and Zhenwei have been transferred into the city in order to control the Ruishi battalion stationed in the Chongwenmen camp. If I guessed correctly, in the past few days, the soldiers and horses of Tai'an Hou, Nanyang Bo and others will be transferred out of Shenjing for various reasons until there is no threat. ”

Chen Ruiwen shook his head: "No, there is no reason!" ”

Jia Jue slowly turned around and said, "The prince who is a prince and a loser is a thief!" Kill a few of us, and the royal family can immediately get nearly 300,000 elite troops, and in this way, the problem of Nan Zhili will be solved. Even the king of Nan'an County and Wei Rugui, who were in southern Xinjiang, could only obediently hand over their military power and return to Shenjing. ”

Chen Ruiwen: "Could it be that you are thinking too much, the current situation is like a fog, and no one knows which direction the situation will develop." But we must be careful, if we are not careful, our noble vein may collapse from now on! ”

Niu Jizong: "I can't manage so much, the top priority is to seize the military power in the capital." Now that the two Great Seals of the Ministry of War are all in our hands, we will first transfer Xie Qiong's martial arts training battalion into the city and station it in Xicheng to ensure the safety of our family first. ”

After a pause, "If there is no reaction from the Kunning Palace, then immediately transfer the Xianwu camp of Jiang Zining, the Marquis of the Plains, into the city." ”

Jia Jue and Chen Ruiwen nodded fiercely.

.........

"Get out of the way!"

"Get out of the way!"

"Drive!"

"Drive!"

A group of light horses roared away, quickly disappearing into the snow and mist.

"Whew-"

In the camp of the martial arts training camp, a rapid horn suddenly sounded.

A group of soldiers from the martial arts training battalion ran out of the camp tent, densely lined up in the big teaching field, all the soldiers were dressed in armor, lined up in the wind and snow.

Accompanied by the adjutant general, Xie Qiong rode past the military formation, marched to the military flag, grabbed the reins, slowly swept his gaze over the faces of the generals, and ordered: "Go!" ”

A group of soldiers from the training battalion set off in formation, mighty and murderous, and quickly rushed towards Shenjing.

ps: After thinking about it, I still changed the second half. (In the previous chapter, the emperor was changed to a hundred civil and military officials.) ）
