In the seventh month of the lunar calendar, it is the blazing sun.

Shenjing.

The fighting at the border did not affect the bustle of the imperial capital in the slightest, and on this sunny day, the market was even more lively.

Hawkers and vendors with stalls are working hard to attract customers, and the jugglers on the street swallow swords and spit fire, surrounded by a sea of people.

There are also a variety of snacks and a variety of small items, which can be said to have everything.

This is the center of the Great Qian Empire, the most prosperous place in the world!

In the hustle and bustle.

Suddenly, messengers from the border came galloping on horseback.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, the street vendors hurriedly retreated their stalls, and the pedestrians quickly avoided them.

The movements are extremely skillful.

In recent years, the Tatars or Warats have had to make some trouble with the big cadres every year, and from time to time there are always one or two messengers passing by in front of them, and everyone has become accustomed to it.

"Mobei victory! Mobei victory! ”

"The Holy Emperor drove his own expedition and subdued the Tatar barbarians in one fell swoop!"

"The soldiers of the Jianrui Battalion of the Pioneer Army bravely broke through the camp and killed countless enemies ......"

"The Tatar Khan is a courtier!"

"Mobei victory! Mobei victory! ”

“……”

The voice of the messenger who had been shouting all the way became hoarse, but it did not prevent the dusty messenger from continuing to shout.

…………

at the bazaar.

When the people heard the messenger's words, they were stunned.

Immediately, they all shouted, "Long live my emperor!" Where the Holy Lord's soldiers are coming, the Tatar barbarians are really vulnerable! ”

A middle-aged vendor said excitedly: "Your Majesty, it's only been half a year since you drove your own expedition, right?" was able to beat Mobei Tatar and took the initiative to write a letter to call him a minister......"

Another vendor next to him replied, "Where is half a year so long?" After the time of the army's journey, it is only a little more than three months! ”

Then, another person asked, "But what's going on with this vanguard Jianrui battalion?" ”

However, the former is also confused.

only said: "Since you can call the messenger to shout alone to report victory, it must also have made a great contribution to the war, I remember that the army was pulled out that day, and the commander of the Jianrui battalion of the vanguard army seems to be surnamed Jia, right?" ”

"It's surnamed Jia."

The vendor from before nodded and said, "It is said that it is the Jia family on Ningrong Street in Xicheng District, and the leader is the newly named lord of Changfang!" ”

Good deeds come up and share their gossip.

"I heard that the lord was only born as a concubine, and he has earned a lot of credit on the battlefield before he is a weak crown this year, so he was jumped several levels by His Majesty and was named a second-class man!"

Everyone was amazed.

Seeing this, the man's heart became more and more satisfied.

He said mysteriously: "My neighbor's cousin was on an errand under Lord Jia, and I heard him say that when he rushed to the aid of Taiyuan Mansion last year, because two third-grade guerrilla generals in the army did not obey the order, Lord Jia immediately cut people down......."

"Shhh

Everyone gasped.

"The Jia family is up again now!"

A vendor sighed and admired, "That Ningrong Street used to be very deserted, but since the Jia family has produced this Jia Jue again, it has become a constant traffic again." ”

The vendor selling sugar gourds on the street next to him couldn't help but interject, "I'll just say that you are worrying about it, if you have that kind of kung fu, you might as well shout harder!" ”

Crowd, "......"

After the messenger passed, the bazaar quickly resumed its former bustle and bustle.

A middle-aged man dressed in a housekeeper's costume on the side of the street, with a joy on his face that could not be concealed, hurried away.

…………

Rongguo Mansion, Xicheng District.

"Old lady, old lady, great joy!"

At the door of Rongqing Hall, Lin Zhixiao's family ran over panting.

Shouting is heard.

Jia Mu was startled at first, and then heard that it was a happy event, and then she regained her previous calmness.

"Sit down and catch your breath!"

Mother Jia motioned for Lin Zhixiao's family to sit down first, and instructed the little maid who was waiting on the side: "Go and pour a cup of tea for Lin Zhixiao's family!" ”

Sit on a brocade bench.

Lin Zhixiao's family didn't wait for his breathing to be steady, so he smiled and said to Jia's mother: "Old lady, guess what my family went out to do errands today, what did they see on the street?" ”

Jia Mu smiled: "Don't hang my appetite, if there is a happy event, hurry up and say it, otherwise I won't give you a single cent of reward later!" ”

Hearing this, Lin Zhixiao's family hurriedly said: "My family went outside today, and they met a messenger who came back from Mobei on the street!" ”

"The messenger of Mobei's victory?"

Hearing the news from Mobei, Jia Mu couldn't help but sit up straight and asked, "But there is news from Brother Cong?" ”

"How else to say that old lady, you are like a god!"

Lin Zhixiao's family complimented Jia's mother twice.

continued: "Listening to my family, I only heard the messenger shouting all the way on the street, the victory of the Mobei Great, the great victory of His Majesty's imperial conquest, the meritorious service of the Jianrui Battalion of the vanguard army in breaking through the enemy village, and the Tatars writing letters to claim their ministers.

My family thought, isn't the Jianrui Camp under the command of the third master, and I can't take care of this matter, so I hurriedly ran back to report the good news! ”

"Mobei won the battle there?!"

Mother Jia was overjoyed, "If you say that, Brother Cong'er is about to return to the dynasty victoriously?" ”

While talking.

The maid outside came to report, "Old lady, the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies sent someone to report the victory, saying that the third master has made great contributions in Mobei, and he will return to ......Beijing with the army in the near future."

Jia Mu hurriedly said: "Hurry up and invite people in!" ”

Saying that, he ordered Jia Yu and Jia Lian to go to the reception.

What the messenger of the Governor's Mansion said was not much different from what Fang Cai Lin Zhixiao's family said, and everyone was sure that Jia Cong had really made a great contribution in Mobei!

He gave a reward for money.

sent away the messenger of the Governor's Mansion, and Jia Mu had already ordered her to go down and prepare to pick up the wind for Jia Cong.

…………

Three small hugging houses behind Mrs. Wang's hospital.

At this time, Daiyu and Baochai came together to welcome the spring here, and the Tanchun and Xichun next door heard the movement and also came to accompany them.

Laughing and talking.

The little girl who welcomed the spring embroidered orange heard the news of Jia Cong from Rongqingtang, and flew back to share it with everyone, which surprised and delighted everyone.

Lin Daiyu asked: "So, Third Brother Cong will come back from Mobei in a short time?" ”

"It's not what, Lin Zhixiao's family came to report the good news to the old lady before, saying that he heard it from the messenger who reported the victory outside, so can it be fake?"

Embroidered orange held her head high, and her tone was determined.

"It's okay now," Lin Daiyu said with a smile, "When Third Brother Cong comes back, we will have another place to play and laugh." ”

In this way, it made Xichun on the side teasing.

It is said that after Daiyu came to Jiafu, because of Xichun's playful nature, she often played with Daiyu, so the relationship between the two was extremely close.

After listening to Daiyu's words this time, he immediately started his own performance!
