Chapter 1548 Li Zan: Prince Wei should also return the favor...
Jia Heng, Jia Zheng and Jia's mother had dinner in Rongqing Hall. Without lingering for long, they left Rongqing Hall and returned to Ningguo Mansion.
Ningguo Mansion, back hall
At this moment, Qin Keqing was chatting with Youshi, You Erjie and You Sanjie after dinner. Zhen Lan, Zhen Xi, and Yaruo were sitting on the pear wood chairs beside the coffee table, and from a blue and white porcelain teacup beside them, a faint aroma could be seen rising.
The beautiful woman's dignified and bright face was covered with rosy red blush, and her eyes showed a hint of tenderness under her beautiful green eyebrows.
At this moment, a maid entered the hall. Her wrinkled old face seemed to be filled with a trace of joy. She said, "Princess, the prince is back."
As he was speaking, the young man in the python robe walked in from outside, a big smile on his face.
"Daddy~" Fu'er and Mo'er called out softly to the young man in the python costume, and a smile appeared on his beautiful and bright face.
Jia Heng sighed, then walked over, picked up Fu'er and Mo'er, chuckled, and said, "Do you miss daddy?"
My two daughters are like porcelain dolls, delicate and cute.
Fu'er and Mo'er's eyes were lively and clear, almost like crystal clear grapes. They responded sweetly and said, "Yes, I do."
While they were talking, the two maids kissed Jia Heng on the cheeks, one on the left and one on the right, giggling non-stop.
Jia Heng looked at Fu'er and Mo'er, chuckled, and said, "Fu'er, Mo'er, come here and let daddy kiss you."
Qin Keqing glanced at the young man in the python robe with her charming eyes under her beautiful eyebrows and said angrily, "Don't tease my daughter. The old lady must have finished her work."
Jia Heng held his daughter in his arms, looked at Qin Keqing with a smile, and whispered, "We have finished the work. We will open the ancestral hall to worship our ancestors in a few days."
Tanchun's charming and bright face showed a trace of concern, and she asked, "Brother Heng was conferred the title of prince. Did any civil officials object to this in the court today?"
Jia Heng said softly: "There are a lot of objections, but they are not important."
As she spoke, she looked at Zhen Lan and Zhen Xi beside her with a warm gaze, and said in a charming and inexplicable voice, "Your sister said that you should go to the palace to accompany her in a few days. It's quite boring to stay in the palace alone."
Zhen Lan responded softly, and said, "Then my sister and I will pack up and head to the palace."
Jia Heng nodded, sat down, picked up a cup of blue and white porcelain tea, took a sip of the fragrant tea, and said in a gentle voice: "People from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Shangyi Bureau will come in the next few days to measure and tailor clothes. Keqing and them should prepare."
Qin Keqing's beautiful eyes showed a hint of cuteness under her slender eyebrows. She said, "Didn't someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs come here to take my measurements and tailor clothes before?"
Jia Heng smiled and said loudly: "It's not that those who are pregnant are pregnant, those who are fat are fat, and their figures are not the same anymore."
Qin Keqing snorted lightly, a hint of annoyance welling up in her eyes, and said, "That's true."
So she gained weight, and this guy went after those little girls, right?
Jia Heng raised his eyebrows, took a look at the sky outside, and said in a clear voice: "It's getting late, let's go to bed early."
At this moment, Zhen Lan stood up, took Zhen Xi's slender hand, and looked at the young man in the python robe, feeling a little reluctant to leave.
She had wanted to talk to the prince about court affairs, but that would only be possible in the next few days.
Everyone got up and left, but Yaruo stayed where she was, looking at Jia Heng reluctantly, her innocent and bright face full of longing.
Qin Keqing's face was as beautiful as a lotus, fair and rosy, with beautiful eyes beneath her curved green eyebrows, looking at Jia Heng with affection. Without saying anything else, she followed Jia Heng to the hall.
While Jia Heng was speaking, he quickly left the hall and went to the inner room with Qin Keqing.
Inside the wing, on a tall lacquered wooden table, the orange candle flame flickered, and the light gently splashed on the screen, table and chairs like water.
Jia Heng embraced Qin Keqing's plump and delicate body, came to sit on the bed, hugged the beauty, leaned close to her ear, and whispered: "Keqing, let's have another boy, so that he can inherit the title of king in the future."
Qin Keqing was delighted when she heard this, and said shyly, "I don't know if I can give birth to a son."
Jia Heng reached out and gently stroked Qin Keqing's belly, comforting her: "Don't worry, this pregnancy will definitely be a boy."
Qin Keqing responded, and under the teasing of the young man in the python costume, the beautiful woman's plump, lovely cheeks blushed like clouds, her eyes were as bright as water, and she said in a trembling voice: "I'm not pregnant yet, where can I give birth?"
While Jia Heng was speaking, he leaned close to the beauty's ear, slightly opened his lips, and gently held the fair and lovely earlobe, feeling the beauty's heart beating.
Qin Keqing couldn't help but snort with her delicate and straight nose, while her graceful and gorgeous face suddenly flushed.
Immediately, the young man in the python robe turned his head and moved close to those two slightly moist lips, gently grabbing the clear and sweet breath.
The candlestick on the lacquered wooden table swayed violently, flickering unsteadily.
Two pale yellow curtains, bound together by golden hooks, gently fell down.
At this moment, Jia Heng hugged Qin Keqing's slightly plump body, feeling the fullness and softness of the beauty, and felt an inexplicable joy in his heart.
After an unknown amount of time, Jia Heng gently lifted a strand of Qin Keqing's lush hair that fell beside her ear, leaned close to her face, kissed her gently, and said, "Keqing, this baby should be a boy."
Qin Keqing said, "I hope so."
As she spoke, the beauty nestled her head in the arms of the young man in the python costume, listening to the young man's strong heartbeat, and a sense of peace welled up in her heart.
……
……
Just as Jia Heng was conferred the title of prince, both the Rong and Ning mansions were shrouded in joy, and a turbulent undercurrent surged in the city of Shenjing.
Ankang Lane, Gaozhai——
After Gao Zhongping left the court, he sat on a pearwood chair in the flower hall. The tea in the teacup beside him kept getting colder and colder. His face was solemn, like a stone, as he pondered the current situation in the court.
Jia Heng's title of prince was like breaking through some bottom line, or he was just one step away from it, with only a fig leaf left hanging outside.
If I am granted the Nine Gifts, or even promoted to the position of Regent, it would be a clear declaration to the outside world that I intend to usurp the throne.
At this moment, a burly young man with a rough face came quickly from outside, looked at Gao Zhongping with sparkling eyes, and said softly, "Father."
The man was Gao Zhongping's son Gao Yong. He walked up quickly and said in a loud voice, "Father, I heard from my friends outside that Jia Heng has been promoted to Prince of Wei."
Gao Zhongping frowned, looked at Gao Yong with sharp eyes, and said, "That's true."
"I said at the beginning that Jia Heng was a traitor." Gao Yong's face was filled with anger, and he said angrily: "I am afraid that the next step is to grant him the Nine Gifts, establish a government with the same status as the Three Officials, and force the emperor to abdicate."
Gao Zhongping's eyes flashed coldly, and he said in a cold voice: "There is no official in this dynasty, and they are equal to the three officials."
Gao Yong was speechless for a moment.
But that's what it means after all.
Gao Zhongping's calm and dignified face was filled with coldness under his sword-like eyebrows. He stared at Gao Yong and scolded him, saying loudly, "You are unlearned and incompetent!"
Gao Yong's face was a little unnatural. He pursed his lips, looked at Gao Zhongping, and said, "Father, Jia Heng has already shown signs of rebellion. We have to stop him now!"
Gao Zhongping's eyes were piercing under his sword-like eyebrows, and he said in a deep voice: "It is hard to say whether this matter will be resolved. The Prince of Wei rose from humble beginnings and has repeatedly received great favors from the royal family. He is loyal to the royal family."
Gao Yong's tone was full of disdain, and he said in a cold voice: "Maybe he is just pretending well, and his true colors haven't been revealed yet."
Gao Zhongping said: "It's useless to say this now."
During this period of time, he will have to discuss more with the cabinet to see how to control Prince Wei.
Gao Yong said: "Father, we must find a way to suppress the King of Wei. We must not indulge his arrogance and abuse of power. Otherwise, the Han family Chen will rule the world, and the Jia family will rule the world."
Gao Zhongping's bright eyes sparkled with anger under his thick black eyebrows. He shouted, "You little brat, don't talk nonsense!"
The Prince of Wei is now in power, and the only things that can restrict him are morality and the people's hearts, and the civil officials like them.
Gao Yong's face was filled with fear, and he said, "Father, now the young emperor is in power, the queen mother is ruling from behind the curtain, and the powerful ministers are in power. If the King of Wei had ascended the throne, this would never have happened."
Gao Zhongping was silent for a moment after hearing this, and said: "The King of Wei forced the late emperor to abdicate, which is immoral and impossible. However, the young ruler is in power, so if we talk about the right person..."
At the end, the voice paused, thinking of Concubine Duanrong's son, the eighth prince Chen Ze.
After five or six years, the new emperor grew up and took back power from Jia Ziyu.
Now, if a young child becomes emperor, it is hard to say whether he can grow up in the future. How long can these cabinet ministers take care of him?
Once they step down, will there still be ministers with enough weight in the court to check and balance King Wei?
At this moment, not only Gao Zhongping was so worried, but the chief minister of the cabinet, Li Zan, was also very worried. He was in the hall, looking for a teacup, taking a sip of tea, his resolute face also showed worry.
When the dust settled on Jia Heng's appointment of a prince with a different surname, the important officials in the court realized it belatedly and felt a little dazed.
In other words, it is more of a worry that comes after the fact.
What can now restrict Jia Heng is the underlying morality of the people and the power of the civil service group.
Li Zan put down the teacup in his hand, his eyes flickered, his face was as solemn as iron, and he thought: "Take back some of the military power of the Beijing Camp, and strive for the matter of the Imperial Censor and the Military Supervisor. When I was crowned as the king before, the cabinet made concessions. In terms of the military power of the Beijing Camp, the King of Wei should also return the favor."
Li Zan frowned, his eyes deep, thinking about the next strategy in his mind.
Because when Li Zan was the Minister of War, he was also the founder of the Beijing Camp and participated in the war against Liao. He also had some friendship with the officers and soldiers of the Beijing Camp.
Therefore, it would not be strange if he had control over the military power.
……
……
The next day, dawn broke in the east, the sky became bright, the morning light shone in the courtyard, and the plants and trees seemed to be bathed in golden light.
It was noon. A heavy rain the night before had made the lush vegetation in the courtyard appear green and lush.
Jia Heng got up from bed, put on a dragon robe made of black and red satin and golden silk thread, and planned to go to the villa to look for the Japanese Emperor Xingzi.
In the palace, the garden, and the backyard——
I saw the banana tree in the middle of the courtyard, green and lush, with water droplets rolling down, dripping on the wet green bricks and gathering into piles.
Xingzi was wearing a kimono with a floral maple leaf pattern. Her green, fragrant hair was combed into an elegant, bright bun, and her eyes were full of the gentleness and softness of a Yamato Nadeshiko.
The beauty stared at the lotus flowers in the courtyard pond in a daze, and her heart seemed to reflect every moment of her time with Jia Heng.
On the large green lotus leaves, you can see crystal clear water droplets rolling down. The breeze blows gently, and the water drops fall on the lake surface, immediately creating ripples.
At this moment, a maid with lush hair came quickly from the stone path in the distance, chuckled, and said softly: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Wei is here."
Xingzi stared at him infatuatedly from under her willow-shaped eyebrows, and her voice was filled with joy as she said, "Mr. Jia is here."
The beauty's beautiful eyebrows were fixed with her eyes, and she looked in the direction of the voice. Her cold and bright eyes flickered, and she looked at the tall and heroic young man in the python robe, and called out, "Jia Jun."
Jia Heng looked at the beautiful woman with a sweet face, who looked like Saito Asuka, with a smile in his eyes, and said with a chuckle, "Xingzi, long time no see."
Among so many people, the one he ignored the most was Xingzi, or rather, because they lived quite far away from each other, he seldom came over.
Xing Zi's face was filled with joy, and she looked at him lingeringly, calling out, "Jia Jun, are you done with the things outside?"
Jia Heng smiled and said, "I'm already very busy."
As he spoke, he came closer, hugged Xingzi's petite and delicate body, looked at the beauty with warm eyes, and said, "Xingzi, have you missed me these two days?"
Xingzi's snow-white face flushed red, and under her slender eyebrows, her bright eyes surged with an inexplicable color. She nodded and said, "I want to, um~"
As she was speaking, the young man in the python robe came closer and kissed her delicate and slightly moist lips, gently and intimately.
Xingzi's curved and delicate eyelashes trembled slightly, her delicate and straight nose hummed, two bright red blushes appeared on her plump and lovely cheeks, and her clear and bright eyes were full of infatuation.
Jia Heng gently took Xingzi's slender hand and felt that her skin was soft, smooth and delicate. It could be said that Japanese women are mostly petite and delicate, which makes people feel in control.
As he spoke, he embraced Xingzi's petite body and walked towards the inner room.
While Jia Heng was speaking, he gently took Xingzi's slender hand and sat down on the couch. He sniffed the fragrance of Xingzi's lush hair, and his mind felt a little remote and open-minded.
At this moment, the beauty's gentle and graceful eyes were full of charm and beauty, and she whispered, "Jia Jun, let me serve you."
Xingzi, embraced by Jia Heng, entered the inner room and allowed the young man in the python robe to be intimate with him. A light blush appeared on both sides of his snow-white face. After a while, he squatted down and tried his best to please him.
Jia Heng had an inexplicable expression on his face. He stared at the beautiful woman who was concentrating and had a face as bright as the clouds, and said softly, "Xingzi, do you miss home?"
At this moment, Xingzi raised her long black hair and raised her charming eyes from under her slender eyebrows. She looked at Jia Heng with a trembling voice and said, "Mr. Jia, I've been missing home these days."
Jia Heng's bright eyes were piercing under his sword-like eyebrows, and he said softly, "We can't go back now. When we have a chance in the future, we can take a ship to Japan together."
At that time, he was the one who ruled the country and was committed to completely resolving the issue of Japan's return to China.
Xingzi hummed softly at this moment, and soon, a blush gradually appeared on both sides of her face, which was wrapped in lilac, and her delicate skin and fair skin, while under her beautiful emerald eyebrows, there seemed to be a hazy mist in her soft eyes.
Jia Heng took Xingzi's slender hand, gently embraced the beauty's plump, fragrant and soft body, and gently sniffed the fragrance from her nose.
After an unknown amount of time, Jia Heng raised his eyebrows, his eyes warm, and gently embraced Xingzi's soft and tender body, feeling the beauty's trembling, and asked: "Xingzi, are you okay?"
Xingzi said "hmm" softly, and her snow-white face was slightly flushed. Under her two curved eyebrows, she whispered, "I heard that Mr. Jia has many sons and daughters."
Jia Heng asked, "Xingzi also wants a child?"
Xingzi raised her beautiful and dark blue eyebrows, her delicate and graceful face paused for a moment, and she said in a trembling voice: "I don't have anything to do normally, so I also want to raise one."
Jia Heng embraced Xingzi's plump body, feeling the softness and fullness in his palms, and said softly, "Yes, in a few years, you should be able to have a baby."
The two of them snuggled together, enjoying the tender time afterwards.
While Xingzi was speaking, she leaned her beautiful head against the heart of the young man in the python costume. Listening to the pounding heartbeat of the young man in the python costume, she felt an unprecedented sense of peace in her heart.
……
……
When it was almost noon, Jia Heng gently stroked Xingzi's smooth and round shoulders and said softly, "Xingzi, it's getting late, let's get up and have lunch."
Xingzi's expression paused slightly, her face flushed red, and she snorted lightly. She was also hungry at the moment.
While Jia Heng was speaking, he put on a black and red satin dragon robe, walked through the bamboo arched screen, and stood in the hall.
And Xingzi was also wearing an elaborate kimono attire at this moment, and the beautiful lady had a flushed face, and her eyes were sparkling and full of charm.
While Jia Heng was talking, he came to the hall and told the maid to prepare food.
After a while, Xingzi had put on a brand new scarlet dress, and her snow-white face was as bright as the clouds. She looked at Jia Heng with gentle eyes and said softly, "Mr. Jia."
Jia Heng smiled and greeted him, saying, "Come over and have dinner with us."
Xingzi's cool, bright face flushed, she pursed her pink lips and responded softly, her crystal clear eyes sparkling with soft light, she stared at the young man in the python costume and said, "After dinner, do you want to go somewhere else, Mr. Jia?"
Jia Heng nodded and said softly, "I'm not going anywhere today. I'll stay here with you for the whole day. We'll take a bath together later."
Xingzi's heart could not help but be delighted. Her gentle and lovely face flushed with a bright, rosy look. She hummed softly, picked up a pair of bamboo chopsticks, and ate with Jia Heng.
After becoming the king, I am stuck in writing again. I will sort out my thoughts and update as usual tomorrow.
