Sooner or later, the three feud is to start, Hongzheng Emperor's so-called time is not yet arrived just because there is no reasonable reason, just robbing the people of this one is not enough to put forward the withdrawal of the clan. The previous life is because of the Jing Shao in Yunnan and Tibet war in danger, Hongzheng Emperor ordered the Southwest King to send troops to reinforce, unexpectedly the Southwest King to the Southwest hardship and encountered a natural disaster on the grounds that the court first grain and grass money and then send troops, provoked the emperor was furious, ordered the withdrawal of the feudal. At that time, the great effort just destroyed the southern barbarians Jing Shao, not yet returned to the capital, and then received the decree to wield the army to the south, directly to the Southwest fiefdom.
This life already does not need him to go to level that out of the effort of the southern barbarians of the chaos, then the war of the three clans or the sooner the start the better. Jing Shao was pondering on the back of his horse, and when he came back to his senses, Xiao Hei had already walked to the Second Prince's Mansion.
"You kid, still thinking about the fresh grass in brother's mansion." Jing Shao amusingly pulled Xiao Hei's ears, just out of the palace into the second prince's mansion, will certainly cause suspicion, was about to turn his horse, met Jing Chen who came back from his lower post.
"Standing in front of the door for what, why don't you go in?" Jing Chen got down from the sedan chair, he saw his own younger brother in front of the door boredly pulling the horse's ears, the older brother who felt ashamed couldn't help but frown. This capital dares to street horse, only his brother who is not careful, this moment in front of their own door to daze, is not it again broke some trouble?
Jing Shao rolled over and dismounted, scratching his head, "I wanted to find someone to drink with, and without realizing it, I walked to my brother's door."
Jing Chen glared at him, "So old, always thinking of running and drinking, what a shame!"
Jing Shao smiled and handed his horse over to his elder brother's attendant to hold, walking side by side with his brother himself, "Go to the House of Returning Taste, it's the closest to here."
Jing Chen rubbed the corner of his forehead and told the sedan bearers to go back to the mansion, while he himself and Jing Shao walked on foot towards the House of Returning Flavors.
It is not yet time to eat, back to the flavor of the building not many people, Jing Shao tube in a dark red silk dress Zhou boss asked for a elegant room.
"Do you know who this Zhou Zhuan is?" Jing Chen couldn't help but frown when he saw that the two were very familiar with each other.
"Of course I know," Jing Shao poured a cup of tea for his elder brother, "Xiao Yuan is from the Qingliu school, but he is not rigid, elder brother can try to win him over."
"It's good that you have a sense of proportion." Jing Chen nodded, today an official from the Ministry of Ceremonies said that Princess Cheng and Squire Xiao's wife were very close, it was expected that King Cheng must have some involvement with Xiao Yuan, seeing as his own brother understood the stakes, he did not intend to intervene.
Since I saw my brother, I simply said what happened in the palace, so that my brother has a number in mind. As for Ge Ruoyi's matter, Jing Shao is a little difficult, father's meaning is, to the overall situation, this matter is not enough to constitute a reason to attack the southeast, even if the war is declared out, but also is just the icing on the cake, and deal with it will let the people think that the court does not care about people's deaths and lives, weak and incompetent. As for how to dispose of this woman, but it is all left to him.
"If you are inconvenient, just send her to my residence for your sister-in-law to control." Jing Chen proposed, because Princess Cheng is a man and can't be watched over all the time, and Princess Cheng's side wife has been relegated, although the second prince's consort isn't gentle and considerate enough, she does have a knack for managing the inner house.
Jing Shao furrowed his brows, Ge Ruoyi was the key to pacifying Southeast, he snatched her up because he didn't want the Fourth Prince to delay her from killing the Southeast King so that he could have fewer years to fight. But this could not be explained to his elder brother, he could only shake his head and said, "This person is still useful, I will go back and discuss with Junqing."
Jing Chen nodded, he was very satisfied with the disciple Xu who had passed through the door not long ago, learned and humble, just enough to help Jing Shao who was not good at scheming tactics.
As they were talking, a noise from downstairs interrupted the two.
"Two gentlemen, have a word!" Xiao Er was so anxious that he was sweating profusely to dissuade them, but the two people who were struggling together did not listen to persuasion at all.
Jing Shao opened the door and took a look, only to see two men dressed in flashy clothes fighting in the lobby, neither of them very good at kung fu, fighting without any demeanor to speak of. The taller man seemed to have the upper hand, knocking the other to the ground.
Jing Shao looked at the person who fell to the ground some familiar, fixed his eyes to look carefully, is not precisely just a few days ago to see the Mu Lingbao it? One eye is still green. As for the other ......
"Duke Maoguo's son," Jing Chen saw that he couldn't recognize him, so he spoke out to remind him, "The Empress released a rumor the day before yesterday that she was going to choose a proper consort for the Fourth Prince, and both the Duke Maoguo and the Marquis of Beiwei's residence have first misses who are still unmarried."
Jing Shao heard this, suddenly realized. Can not help but snort out a laugh, the North Marquis of Wei their family played a good calculation, but it is a pity that the queen of the previous life is interested in the Miss Maoguo Gongfu, and finally he was wronged in prison, the fourth prince of this old man but the credit can not be ignored.
"If Marquis Bei Wei marries the stepchildren, you will be more distant from their family in the future, and mention less about matters in the imperial court in front of Dixu." Jing Chen hid the door, lest the people downstairs see Jing Shao, after all, his great-uncle was being pressed and beaten up, but this brother-in-law didn't help, it doesn't look good to talk about it.
When Jing Shao heard his brother's words, his heart became a little uncomfortable, in his opinion, Jun Qing was more worthy of his trust than anyone else, but his brother was also for his own good, so he coldly snorted and said: ''Mu Ling Bao, that full sister, is the same as him, being spoiled by Marquis Bei Wei's wife, the stepchildren, even if they want to pull in the Marquis Bei Wei again, they probably wouldn't want to allow Jing Yu to marry a woman of this caliber.
Jing Chen heard this and murmured, "If Miss Mu is really what you say, why don't we ......
"Brother!" Jing Shao immediately interrupted his elder brother, "Although the military power in the hands of Marquis Bei Wei is not as good as Duke Maoguo's, his military power is in the Northwest, and he is now preparing to peddle horses in the Northwest, which is much more useful than Duke Maoguo."
"Is that so?" Jing Chen listened and frowned for a moment in thought, "In that case, I will have someone reveal Miss Mu's condition to the Empress."
Jing Shao sniffed and secretly sighed in relief. He believed Jun Qing, but couldn't explain it to his elder brother. Jun Qing was already having a hard time in that family, and if the Fourth Prince were to marry the Marquis of Bei Wei, in the future, when the two parties were at loggerheads, how would someone as meticulous as Jun Qing be able to handle himself?
Back at the aliyah, it was already dark.
Jing Shao walked into the bedroom, saw Mu Hanzhang wearing a plain civilian clothes, leaning on the soft collapse quietly reading a book, soft candlelight hit his face, is that kind of quiet and beautiful. Can not help but hook up the corners of the lips, see this person, only feel the courtroom flurry of disturbances, the courtroom under the plotting and scheming, all dissipated.
Slowly walking over, burying his face into his own princess's chest, deeply inhaling the faint fragrance of his body, Jing Shao relaxed his body and slowly closed his eyes, reborn in a life full of bloodshed, only by his side would he feel at peace. This person is the only salvation that God has given himself.
"What's wrong? Got a lecture from Father?" Mu Hanzhang touched the big head on his chest.
"No, running for a day a little tired just," Jing Shao looked up at him, such a warm and handsome appearance, with that green one eye round face Mu Lingbao completely unlike, suddenly remembered back to the door the day in the North Marquis of Wei's study to see that painting, "Jun Qing, your family this generation is not all according to the ancient nine weapons to take the name of the ?"
"This family's lineage is like this, the three of us siblings are the names of the three precious swords." Mu Hanzhang said in a warm voice, his father's love of famous weapons had become obsessive, even the names of his children were taken in this way.
The ancient nine weapons, the knife three, one is said to be Lingbao, two is said to contain the chapter, three is said to be quality.
Jing Shao frowned, "Then Miss Mu's maiden name is 'Mu Quality'?"
Mu Hanzhang nodded, "Why did you suddenly remember to ask this? Is it because the Fourth Prince is going to choose a consort?"
"I'm just curious," Jing Shao moved forward, "If your sister looks like Mu Ling Bao, I'm afraid it'll be hard to marry her."
"Which is not that bad." He glared at the person who was talking nonsense on him, but thinking about Mu Lingbao's face turning into a woman, Mu Hanzhang himself couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The next day, Jing Shao found Ge Ruoyi, who was staying temporarily in the small courtyard.
It had to be said that the freshly changed Ge Ruoyi was indeed beautiful, and one could imagine what kind of beauty the son of the Ge family, the one who had made the Southeast King want to get the entire Ge family even if he had to kill them, was.
"The current situation is like this, the Southeast King is killing people in his own fiefdom, and the court can't care much about it, even if this matter goes to be investigated, he casually presses a big charge on the Ge family's head, and at the most, it will be considered as a tyrannical government for him." Jing Shao sighed lightly.
The hope in Ge Ruoyi's eyes instantly darkened, and a pair of slender, soft hands gradually clenched white.
"Some words shouldn't be said, but this king can tell you, sooner or later the southeastern fiefdom court will take it back, it just takes some time." Jing Shao looked at her like this, slowly clasped his hand on the short sword at his waist, the southeast king's temperament he already knew, the assassination matter to find someone else is the same, although it will cost a little. But if Ge Ruoyi doesn't know what's good for her, keeping her is a scourge.
"Your Highness is willing to run for my daughter, it is already a great favor, my daughter also knows that this revenge can not be avenged overnight," Ge Ruoyi was silent for a long time, and suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to Jing Shao, "Many thanks to your Highness for taking care of me in these past few days, and I will definitely repay you for your great kindness in the future. "
Jing Shao slowly loosened the hand clasped on the knife, this woman is not only courageous and resourceful, but also see things more transparent than the average person, back then when he saw her covered in blood in the Southeast King's Palace, he had a sincere admiration for this persistent woman, this is also the reason why he is not willing to swindle and take advantage of the situation, but rather the truth, after all, Ge Ruoyi is just like his own self in his previous life, he fought with all his might, and in the end, he lost all of it.
"This king gives you two ways, one, wait in the capital, no trouble, in a few years this king will naturally give you an explanation; two, this king let someone teach you the secret weapon method, help you sneak into the southeast king's mansion, you go to take revenge yourself." Jing Shao quietly gazed at Ge Ruoyi who was kneeling on the ground, his tone was calm and solemn, "If you don't know how to choose, wait for you to figure it out and then come back to this king."
"I choose the second path!" Ge Ruoyi gave an answer almost immediately.
"You must think clearly," Jing Shao frowned, "If you don't go, this king can find you a good family to marry."
"My daughter will never back out, please fulfill your majesty!" Ge Ruoyi kowtowed three times to Jing Shao, fearing that Jing Shao would not give her this opportunity.
Out of the small courtyard door, Jing Shao saw Mu Hanzhang standing under the peach blossom tree waiting for him.
"How did you anticipate that she would definitely choose the second one?" Jing Shao asked, this statement was the result of last night's discussion with his own princess.
Mu Hanzhang smiled, picked a peach blossom and threw it into the water: "Yang Hua into the water, still rootless, it is better to do that wildfire, even if it destroys itself, but also burned out the enemy."
When Jing Shao heard this, he only felt enlightened. For him, if he were to live a new life without the ties of Jun Qing and his elder brother, I am afraid that he would also be like Ge Ruoyi, who would defy all odds and kill all of his enemies, even if he had to topple the kingdom and the mountain.
Turning to late April, the fourth prince's confinement finally ended, and under the persuasion of the Empress Dowager, Emperor Hongzheng also approved of the matter of choosing a proper consort for the fourth prince.
The response given by Jing Shao, who was still copying books at home, as the elder brother, was to send his beautiful Wang Ji. When it is a congratulatory gift to celebrate the lifting of the ban, it is also a reparation gift for robbing his younger brother of his beauty.
