Dunhuang County Mansion, Yingtai Hall.

"Found out? What is the origin of the gambling house? ”

Jia Hui put away her hippie smile and turned back to that serious look.

"I haven't really found out, but I can only say that there is a new clue. Coincidentally, when the people at the bottom went to check the gambling house, the general Hu Shen from the Jiangnan camp also happened to pass. ”

Tan Ji got up and poured Jia Hui a cup of tea.

"Then, the people below found that Hu Shen was sneaky and ran to the backyard, and the people at the bottom took advantage of the black light to sneak in."

"Backyard? Not a basement or a dark room? Aren't you afraid that some little thief will show him? ”

"What's there to be afraid of? There are always some big customers who don't want people to see their faces. The big customer is carrying a box of money, this little thing is not satisfied?

As for why don't you go into the secret room, what if you want to kill me for money and kill me? The backyard can finally escape, which can be regarded as making these big customers feel safer..."

"Ahem, it's far away!" Jia Hui cleared her throat.

"Oops, blame me, blame me!

I went on to speak, and the little banner under my command then saw that General Hu Shen had given a box of silver to the proprietor of the gambling house, and his face was full of desire and stopping, as if he wanted something from the proprietor.

But the proprietor just smiled and said a few words, causing the general to draw a knife and kill someone!

But the owner said a few more words, and General Hu Shen put the waist knife back to the sheath with an angry face, turned his head and left! ”

"Why didn't you hear a word?" Jia Yucun had some questions.

"It's too far away, and my little flag can get in thanks to the dark clouds that covered the moon last night, and there was no moonlight. If you go any further, it's like walking through it clearly! Coupled with the fact that those people are talking in suppressed voices, it's good to be able to find out about these! Tan Ji explained.

"Well, yes, at least we have a new direction, send more people, and focus on this line! Give that little flag a hundred taels of silver, you come out for me, and I will make it up for you! Jia Hui nodded, and finally opened up a new battlefield.

Let's hope the ice is broken!

"Yes! Thank you, Metropolitan Governor, for my brotherhood! Tan Ji hurriedly got up and bowed down to Jia Hui.

"Hehe, there's no need for this, this is what you deserve, as long as you work hard, serve the court well, and serve the country! There will be silver, and there will be a future! ”

"Humble duty, remember the teachings of the Metropolitan Governor!"

"Students remember the bishop's teachings!"

"Well, you two work hard, whether you can turn over or not depends on your ability!"

Jia Hui stood up, stopped in front of Jia Yucun, bent down and patted Jia Yucun on the shoulder.

"Especially you, Shi Fei, no matter how old Tan is, he is still a thousand household officials of the fifth grade. is to the end, but there is also a positive five products promoted to the rank of general Wude.

Leaving the embroidered guard, some border towns want to transfer him over! Even if it is done at this point, it will still be retired with the treatment of a military attache of the fifth grade.

But what about you? You don't have anything left, think about your family, think about your own future, and think about the Jinling prefect and the Eight Hundred Dadian Propaganda Envoy! You're going to have to do a good job! ”

Jia Hui patted Jia Yucun's shoulder as he spoke, and his utilitarian words hit Jia Yucun's heart like a heavy hammer.

Tan Ji on the side wanted to speak and stopped.

Governor, can you hope for a humble position!

But I'm already that good, am I?

。。。。。。

discussed some details of the plan with the two, and both of them went back to sort it out.

Since I will have an open and honest talk with Deng Yuan tomorrow, no matter what the outcome of the negotiation is, I must go to the Jiangnan camp.

The time is set for the day after tomorrow.

I'm going to have dinner with Deng Yuan tomorrow, it's not a good thing to go to the barracks drunk.

Jia Hui was still sitting on the left side of the main hall, on the main seat, bowing his head and pondering.

The formless, silent, and colorless momentum emanated from his body, and the huge picture of the tiger roaring mountains and rivers hanging on the wall invisibly deepened this momentum, making the servants in the room tense and standing there with their heads bowed, not daring to make any sound.

The unexpected appearance of this group of mysterious forces is really a huge increase in variables.

Where exactly do they come from?

As Tan Ji said, on the rivers and lakes, the Demon Dao has been injured, and he can't organize a manpower of this scale. And the righteous way, I really can't do this kind of thing that will lose my head if I am not careful.

Originally, the relationship between the rivers and lakes and the imperial court had long since begun to be in a state where well water did not interfere with river water when the country was founded for various reasons. Chivalry violates the ban with martial arts, and the reckless behavior of these so-called "heroes" has made the relationship between the two sides so bad that it is open and secret.

Part of the function of the embroidery guard and the Dongji factory is to monitor and interfere with the rivers and lakes.

If this is known by the big people above the court, they are actually involved in the collusion of merchants and soldiers, and even the seizure of heirs.

Oh, I'm afraid that the holy decree of General Sima Da and the Governor of the Left Army, Dunhuang County, will step on the rivers and lakes.

Is it the Gangnam family?

This is very likely, but their family is about to be infiltrated into a sieve by the embroidered guards and the east factory, and there is no sign of raising private soldiers, but they have found several villages that train dead soldiers, and they have been exterminated by the embroidered guards as a den of robbers.

As a result, no clues related to private soldiers were found.

As for the maritime ...

They are fighting with the East China Sea Division and the Jiangnan Army, how can they have the energy to influence the Jiangnan camp?

Religion?

It can't be said that the country is peaceful and peaceful, there were even some small rebellions in the past few years, but now it is in the heyday of Daqi, and generally speaking, the world is still peaceful.

All of a sudden, things came to an impasse.

There is no way, but to see what big fish can be caught in the line of the gambling house.

Still, there is good news.

His wife, Mrs. Li Kun of Dunhuang County, probably, seems, maybe... I guess I'm pregnant...

I couldn't believe it when I received this letter the afternoon before yesterday!

Although most of what was written in the letter was Li Kun's strong reaction after pouring bitter water on himself to complain about pregnancy, it was repeatedly mentioned that it had not been confirmed, and this kind of reserved words needed to be further examined.

But judging from the pride of inviting merit revealed between the lines of Li Kun's words, she is probably indeed pregnant.

It's only been less than three months since we've been married, right? So fast!

Jia Hui is very sure that this is his child, after all, Li Kun was indeed a virgin when they got married, and the relationship between the two was not fake...

It's just that I can't believe that I'm going to be a father at such a young age...

He hasn't been a kid enough!

What would your own children be like? Male or female? What will the temperament be like? Do you get along well with yourself......

Jia Hui didn't feel excited, but couldn't stop being confused about the future.

。。。。。。

Shendu, Dunhuang County Mansion.

The whole mansion is called a jubilant, just today, the mother's menstrual affair this month has not come, this is the second month in a row!

In addition, the old lady who was caught by the old lady who lived next door for several days in a row, and the old lady of the gynecological holy hand palace who specially gave the palace lady to see the illness repeatedly confirmed that the housewife of their family, Mrs. Li Kun, was pregnant!

Jia Hui's own uncle, now the chief housekeeper of the mansion, Yuan Xiang, immediately set off three strings of thousands of red cannons!

The ladies of the two prefectures in the east were all dispatched, and even the old lady who rarely went out took the sedan chair to the county mansion with Sanchun Baoyu.

The old brothers who had been paying attention to the county mansion also sent their daughters to visit their sisters-in-law, and even prepared some small toys for the children to play with in advance, some wooden weapons such as small soft bows, knives, small swords and small guns made of cork and balsa wood.

Niu Zhao, a fierce man who learned a good leatherman's craft in Anxi, also gave his little nephew a calfskin armor that only children at least three years old can wear...

I didn't think about whether Jia Hui's first child was a boy or a girl!

However, the general environment is here, and they naturally hope that the eldest brother can have a male in the family, so as to pass on the Dunhuang County Mansion.

I don't know if it's a male or female embryo in Li Kun's womb, but I have several sets of weapons and armor at once, and I don't know how many classmates I want to envy when I grow up and go to school in the future!

As the owners of this mansion, Jia Hui and Li Kun and his wife naturally live in the main hall of the county mansion and the courtyard behind the Yingtai Hall.

Nearly 20 women, led by Jia's mother and Jia Yuanchun, who was the princess, sat around Li Kun's bedside, chattering and talking.

Li Kun lay quietly on the bed, obviously just confirmed that she was pregnant, she was already wiping her forehead around, caressing her lower abdomen without any ups and downs with a loving face, exuding the breath of maternal love.

"Oops... Now that Hui's daughter-in-law is pregnant with an heir, she can be regarded as having an explanation for the ancestors of the Jia family, and the old woman immediately went to see the grandfather of the country, which is worth it! ”

Jia Mu said with emotion on her face.

"What did the old lady say, you want to live a long life, and when the time comes, I want you to help watch the granddaughter-in-law and the master's grandson!" Li Kun hurriedly said.

"Yes, yes, ancestor, Yuanchun's children are also waiting for you to bring them! There are also my eldest brother's, Brother Lian's, Baoyu's, Cong'er's, Brother Huan'er's, and my three younger sisters!

When the time comes, there will be a group of little dolls surrounding you, 'Ancestor, ancestor! When the time comes, don't be annoyed! Yuan Chun also hurriedly echoed Li Kun's words, coaxing Jia's mother to be happy.

The ladies around her also complimented the old lady and made the old lady happy.

"Oh, that's amazing, hehehehe......" Jia Mu was also speechless happily.

If there is really a group of little dolls around him called the ancestor, what kind of scene should it be!

If the old man knew that there would be so many great-grandsons under my Jia Shi's knees, would he be so jealous that he went crazy?

Alas, Grandpa Guo, you left too early!

Jia Mu sighed.

In the front yard, Jia Yu was entertaining friends and relatives from all walks of life who were close to his eldest brother.

The main entertainer was Prince Yiyong Chen Jingyuan.

Although in the Rongguo Mansion next door, he is still a master who was pressed by his wife in the East Courtyard and died in name.

But in the Dunhuang County Mansion in the west, he Jia Yu is a real old lady!

Although I am not yet forty years old...

"Hahaha, Wang, Brother Hun'er's child is about to be born, and you and Sister Yuan have to work hard, hahaha!" Jia Yu is happy today.

"Shi, Uncle Shi..."Chen Jingyuan, who was sitting next to Jia Yu, responded to Jia Yu's words helplessly.

There's no way, it's like zzzq to give birth to a child for him now. When the emperor saw it, he said, and when the emperor's grandmother saw it, he also said that when he saw his father, he would be told that he basically didn't dare to leave the house unless necessary.

However, he is still too tender, and the emperor will send his attendants to supervise a few words on time every day...

What kind of torture is this!

Now, even the old uncle Jia Yu has begun to urge himself, and he hasn't said anything yet, after all, Jia Yu often went in and out of the palace back then, and he can be regarded as an elder who watched him grow up.

Not to mention that he is the father of his brother Jia Hui, who has passed his life, and the uncle of his princess Jia Yuanchun!

I can't help it, just bear it...

。。。。。。

The fact that Li Kun was pregnant did not have much impact on Jia Hui, who was far away in Jinling, after all, there were still more than seven months.

However, Jia Hui still sent Jin Cai out to buy a large number of Jiangnan specialties and sent them to Li Kun.

It's better to speed up the progress and try to get everything done within three months, so that you can go back to take care of the pregnant woman as soon as possible!

Jia Hui didn't want to miss the birth of her first child!

After sighing, continue to go back to the backyard to have fun!

After eating lunch in the crested ibis's yard and staying until before dinner, the crested ibis turned into the yard of the egret in his reluctant eyes.

When I was doing errands, I was always worried that my thin waist would be broken......

Next.

Jia Hui, who had breakfast after the morning exercise, did not collapse into the rocking chair as usual, but returned to the backyard of the main hall and cleaned up his image in his bedroom.

The newly grown beard is scraped off with a spatula so that the lower part of the beard is limited to the chin.

Then shave off the beard of the upper and lower lips, that is, only the beard on the chin remains.

I carefully washed my face with a bath bean boy with some spices, and the facial cleansing was finished.

Turning around, the maids were already waiting behind Jia Hui with a pole carrying a piece of outer robe.

All are narrow-sleeved round-necked robes.

Jia Hui scratched his chin with his fingers, thought for a while, and ordered a red gauze vermilion bird pattern woven gold regular clothes.

Brought a jade belt, put on mesh shoes, and finally brought a sapphire hat with Hetian jade hat beads hanging from Jia Hui's ten-minute love. Walk towards the instrument gate on the south side.

This time, Jia Hui did not send a guard of honor, but only chose ten horsemen to follow. Don't look at the fact that there are only ten horses, but they are all elites with armored riding sequences.

Today's conversation will determine Jia Hui's toughness against the Jiangnan camp.

。。。。。。

Deng House.

Whether it is a title, a title or an official position, Jia Hui is Deng Yuan's official, according to the rules, the Deng Mansion is going to open the main gate to greet him, so the main gate is wide open.

Although it was not yet ten o'clock when the Governor planned to arrive, Deng Yuan was already waiting outside the main gate with the men of the whole mansion.

Everyone, including Deng Yuan's five-year-old son, was also held by Deng Yuan's eldest son, waiting for him.

"Daddy, it's a quarter of an hour until ten o'clock! The child is nothing, but Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu's legs are almost trembling, and they have already started crying! Or... Let them go to the porter to rest, and come out when the governor arrives? ”

"No! When you come to the door, you must wait outside the door and greet you. Hold on a little longer! Deng Yuan heard his eldest son's words and immediately retorted.

The eldest son was silent, and the two younger ones were also crying and holding their elder brother's hand.

Deng Yuan looked at this scene, a trace of unbearability flashed on his face, but he still didn't say anything.

Just then, a team of horses came in from the corner and walked towards them.

Deng Yuan fixed his eyes and saw that it was the Metropolitan Governor!

"Come, big brother, lead your brothers and me to greet your guests!"

After speaking, Deng Yuan tidied up his clothes and walked towards Jia Hui meticulously.

"Deng Yuan, the chief military officer of the Jiangnan battalion, and bring his whole family to see the governor!" Fifteen miles away from Jia Hui, Deng Yuan stopped and knelt down on one knee and saluted towards Jia Hui.

"Humble (grass people) and so on, see the Grand Governor!" Except for Deng Yuan's eldest son, who has a position of 100 households in Jiangnan Daying, all the other brothers do not have any official positions and fame.

"Brother Deng, what is this doing, they are all in the army, why bother to be so angry. Get up! Seeing this, Jia Hui hurriedly jumped off the horse and picked up Deng Yuan.

"Governor, etiquette must not be abolished!" Deng Yuan got up and said to Jia Hui seriously.

"It's... Brother Deng is right. "What else can Jia Hui say? For this kind of old-fashioned, commonly known as stubborn donkey, once he doubts what he insists on, no matter how good he is, he can tell you that he has lost all interest in him.

Jia Hui turned to look at Deng Yuan's sons.

"Brother Deng, these are the heroes of the Deng Mansion!" Although there are still two children with snot and shivering calves in the team, this does not prevent Jia Hui from calling them Junjie.

Deng Yuan's eldest son, Deng Jie, has a very good evaluation in the archives of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and he inherited his father's skills. If you grow up a little more, you can be regarded as a qualified commander of the first army.

"Come, meet for the first time, this is my gift to you." After Jia Hui finished speaking, he took out six necklaces from the hands of the soldiers behind him, six necklaces strung with wolf dog teeth.

"Come on, come on, everyone has it, this is the tooth left by a wolf that a certain family fought on the grassland, one person and one string!"

"Grand Duke, too..."

"Brother Deng, don't persuade me again, this is my gift to a few children, and it's not a valuable thing, take it all!" Jia Hui knew what Deng Yuan wanted to say, so he decided not to give him a chance and directly did it.

The children also looked at Deng Yuan with a look of hope.

Wolf teeth!

"It's... Thank you, Governor. What are you still stunned about? Thank you so much! Seeing that his children were all excited, Deng Yuan couldn't bear to refuse them after all.

"Thank you, Grand Duke!" Under the leadership of Deng Jie, several brothers bent down to thank Jia Hui in unison.

"Haha, no need, no need, get up!" Jia Hui waved his hand and told them to get up.

Another pleasantries.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, the scorching sun shining on the earth, and the humid air in the south of the Yangtze River makes the whole Jinling City become like a steamer.

Seeing that the fifth and sixth elders of the Deng family were a little dizzy, Jia Hui hurriedly ended the topic.

"Ahem!" Jia Hui gagged his mouth with his left hand, and gestured to Deng Yuan with his eyes, making him notice that the baby he was carrying was about to heat stroke.

Deng Yuan immediately noticed Jia Hui's eyes, and also saw the two young sons who were a little shaken in the direction of his eyes, and he was also anxious all of a sudden.

"The Grand Duke, it's not a place to talk outside the door, the humble official has prepared a table of wine and food, let me wait... Talking while eating? ”

"Haha, it should be so, it should be so, come, Brother Deng, please?"

"Don't dare to be the governor of the capital, please the governor first!"

"Please!"

Five thousand and one hundred words!

It's decided, and the next thing is the main business, and then it's mixed with some daily life.
