dream of red mansion

Chapter 662
"Bye~!"

In the ancestral hall of Ningguo Mansion, it was very difficult to wait until Jia Dairu finished his long speech, and it was time to pay respects.

Jia Yun faced Jia Qing, folded her hands in front of her forehead, and paid respects.

"Kowtow~!"

Jia Yun knocked her head three times.

"Bye~!"

Jia Yun bowed down again, and after repeating this cycle three times, the ceremony of three bows and nine kowtows was completed.

Then Jia Yun took a glass of wine from the plate brought by Jia Rong, stepped forward on her knees, and raised it above her head.

Jia Qing took it and drank it in one gulp.

"Li Cheng~!"

Jia Dairu's voice also seemed to be happy.

"congratulations……"

"Congratulations, Second Uncle..."

"Second Master He Xiyun..."

The congratulations from the side didn't affect Jia Qing, he looked at Jia Yun and said, "Get up, from now on, you and I will be father and son. You should be more diligent and protect our Ningguo Mansion's family business."

"The child obeys the instruction!"

Jia Qing nodded and stood up.Jia Yun seemed to throw herself into the role right away, stepping forward to help Jia Qing.

"You really think of me as seventy or eighty?"

Jia Qing shook him off and asked back.

"Ah, the child knows his mistake."

Jia Yun scratched her head.

"Humph."

Jia Qing ignored him, exchanged pleasantries with the elders who came forward, and then led them out of the ancestral hall.

"Second Master, there are people asking to see you outside, and I have brought them to the side hall to wait."

Outside the door, Lai Sheng whispered back to Jia Qing.

Jia Qing looked at his expression and guessed that this person might have a special identity.Because Lai Sheng has served Jia Qing for many years, he knows where to arrange to meet different people.

Acquaintances are in the study room, VIPs are in the front hall, and side halls represent privacy
He nodded for a while, and then said to Jia Yun behind him, "I'm going to take care of something, and you can take care of it here."

The next thing is just to accompany the people of the clan to eat, drink and celebrate, it's nothing special, it doesn't matter if Jia Qing is not there.

Walking to the side hall with Lai Sheng, Jia Qing said: "Last night, something big happened."

Knowing that Jia Qing was asking him, Lai Sheng answered, "According to what I know, the palace hurriedly summoned all the lords of the cabinet to enter the palace at midnight yesterday. There is a temporary court meeting, and I am afraid that something happened at the border. By the way, the person who came to ask for an interview just now is someone from Uncle Wang."

"Wang Ziteng?"

Lai Sheng nodded.

Jia Qing looked puzzled, but walked quickly into the side hall without asking any more questions.

"Wang Gang, the lieutenant under the command of Lord Wang, the humble ruler of the nine provinces, has met the Lord."

The person in the side hall is dressed as an ordinary young man, unexpectedly, he is actually a member of the army.

"Lieutenant Wang, please take a seat."

"My lord, you are welcome. My humble duty is to bring a message to my lord under the orders of my lord. It is inconvenient for me to stay at the lord's mansion because of my military duty."

"Bring it here." Jia Qing didn't force it.Wang Ziteng is on the nine sides, so this person is a member of the frontier army.

Maybe, what happened in the capital last night was related to it.

No wonder, he wanted to come in casual clothes, because he didn't want to cause trouble.

Wang Gang groped in his arms for a while, and then he took out a small note and handed it to Jia Qing.

Jia Qing didn't doubt it, he thought, and slowly opened it to take a look:
For the coach
Jia Qing looked at Wang Gang, not understanding what this meant for a moment.

"My lord may not know that the Tatar Ministry has been breached by the Cossack cavalry. This trip is to escort the princess of the Tatar Khanate. Before leaving, Lord Wang gave it to me and told me to hand it over to the lord. .” Wang Gang said.

After Jia Qing heard this, he made a clear decision.

Tatar is broken, the border is about to fight
Wang Ziteng wants to be the coach of this battle!

Although he is the ruler of the nine provinces, he is the person with the highest military position in the nine borders.However, a high military rank does not mean that you can be a coach, nor does it mean that you can command the army.

Because he lacks the qualifications and prestige in the army!

He is a celebrity in front of Emperor Zhengqing. Although he has led the Beijing camp, he has never led troops to fight.

If this battle is fought, it must be an unprecedented battle!The imperial court does not necessarily rest assured that the overall situation will be handed over to him.

But he was at the border again, unable to control the court situation.Therefore, he took the opportunity to ask Wang Gang to send him a letter, asking him to work secretly.

"In addition to asking you to bring letters to me, Mr. Wang also asked you to bring letters to others? Or, is there any other explanation?"

"No, and there is no other explanation, just ask Beizhi to deliver the letter."

Jia Qing thought for a while and said: "Okay, I understand, you go back, it's best not to let people know that you have been here."

"Understandable."

Asking Lai Sheng to send Wang Gang away, Jia Qing sat alone and meditated.

Obviously, Wang Ziteng, who was in a high position, couldn't hold back anymore and wanted to seek military merit.

He thinks this is a golden opportunity!
If he becomes the coach of this battle, he will win again.Needless to say, the knighthood is certain!
After all, this is the first time since the founding of the Great Chu, it has confronted Russia head-on.

However, Jia Qing has different worries.

Although he is not particularly clear about the specific situation at the border, but judging from the fact that the situation that lasted for more than half a year was once broken, he also knows that the current situation at the border must be complicated.

At this time, being the commander in chief of the armed forces is not necessarily a good thing.
Walking to the study, Jia Qing wanted to write a letter of advice to Wang Ziteng, telling him not to be impatient, and wait until the situation is clearer.

I gave up at the beginning.

Thinking in another way, Wang Ziteng must be in a state of blood gushing at this time.Going to persuade him at this time will undoubtedly throw cold water on him, and he is still a junior.
inappropriate.

Hehe, speaking of it, there are so many noble mansions in Beijing, but Wang Ziteng only brought him letters, which shows how much he is valued.I don't even know whether to cry or laugh.

wrong!

Wang Ziteng is still sensible.

The reason why he only brought letters to himself was because he was not in an important position, but he had great energy and could influence many people.

As long as he created a momentum for him, his friends and old friends in high positions would naturally help him, and Emperor Zhengqing would naturally give him a lot of consideration.

This is the safest and most foolproof approach.

Sure enough, he is indeed a veteran official who has been in the officialdom for decades!

In this way, Jia Qing was relieved a lot.

"Come on!"

"Second Master, what's the matter?"

"Order to go down, prepare the car, and go to the adoptive father's house. By the way, ask Mr. Yang to go with me."

Tana listened to Fang Shou's words and sat in the hall blankly.

She knew that what Fang Shou said was correct, but she had never dared to think about it before.

Emperor Zhengqing above was very satisfied with Fangshou's approach.

As the emperor, he not only needs to maintain the dignity of the Celestial Dynasty, but also needs to ensure the interests of Great Chu.

He can't say a lot.

Seeing Fang Shou let Tana understand the situation, he said: "I am also very saddened by this change in the Tatar Khanate. When the war is settled, I will definitely hold Qi Yan and Niegus accountable and give Tatar an explanation!
In addition, Princess Tana, don't worry, although I can't save the people of Tatar from being trampled by the Cossack cavalry, I can guarantee that as long as your father Khan can enter my Dachu's territory smoothly, I will definitely protect him!

In the future, Da Chu will do his best to help your Nagus clan restore the country. "

Tana felt extremely bitter in her heart.Whether Da Chu can win this battle, even if he wins, how many years will it take?By then, how many of their Tatar subjects will be left?
Da Chu, will he sincerely help them restore the country?

However, she knew that the matter had come to an end, and it was already benevolent and righteous for the Emperor of Great Chu to make such a promise to her.

At least, it gave them a glimmer of hope for Tatar.

"My lady, thank you Your Majesty."

When Emperor Zhengqing saw that Princess Tana calmed down so quickly, he appreciated it a little more, and said, "Come here, send Princess Tana back to the post house to rest, and all the expenses will be provided according to the princess system of this dynasty. Within the city, the princess is also allowed to act without restriction or negligence."

"Thank you Your Majesty, my daughter-in-law will leave"

After Tana went down, Emperor Zhengqing asked: "Do you think that the Russians really just wanted revenge on Tatar this time, or did they have other plans?"

Cui Wenlong came out and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the Russians' wolfish ambitions are clearly revealed. This time, they have instigated the rebellion of Qiyan and Niegus. It seems that they have made up their minds to fight against my great Chu."

Emperor Zhengqing nodded, and was about to discuss with his ministers how to deal with it best, but was interrupted by a mournful voice:

"Your Majesty, this battle cannot be fought. The treasury really has no money and food to support such an epic battle!"

When Emperor Zhengqing heard this, he was displeased.
