Sword of the Red Chamber from Heaven

Chapter 662: The girls gather again, Baochai still has something to say

"what happened?"

As soon as Baochai came over, she saw Yingchun and Tanchun talking to Xiangyun about something, and they seemed a little anxious, so she asked.

On the other side, Daiyu and Xichun also arrived late.

"Girl, the second and third girls seem to be talking about something!"

Zijuan also saw this scene from afar and reminded in a low voice.

Even if they wanted to hide the news outside, they couldn't. Such a big thing had happened, and they came here to see what actions were being taken in the mansion.

"Girl, it seems to be Miss Shi."

Ruhua's observation point is obviously different from Zijuan's. In addition to Yingchun and Tanchun, the two girls in the mansion, she also noticed Shi Xiangyun.

"Ah."

Xichun nodded. She had heard the news from Wang Xifeng before, but the expressions on the three of them looked a little strange, as if they were ants on hot pan.

"Girls, they"

"Maybe something happened! The incident of the Dongping Rebel King has caused a lot of uproar, and I guess everyone in the mansion knows about it."

Xichun seemed to be thinking about something, and Daiyu nodded as well when she heard it.

"Sister Xichun is right. I'm afraid that's the case. But now..."

As she was talking, Daiyu suddenly fell silent. This matter was a big trouble for the imperial court, and there was even a risk of overthrow. However, they were just girls in the boudoir and had no way to change anything. They were just worrying without reason.

"Perhaps the two sisters are worried about their future!"

Xichun suddenly spoke.

Hearing this, Daiyu sighed again. In fact, it was not just Yingchun and Tanchun who would be in danger. If the army was defeated this time, even she would probably not be spared.

Under the cover of the nest, there is no complete egg.

If the capital city is breached and the imperial army is defeated, and Prince Dongping leads his troops into the capital, it is likely that everyone in the capital city will be killed.

So this is the real reason why those big families in the capital want to escape.

"Actually, sister, you don't have to worry about these trivial matters. They are just a few people. The Marquis' Mansion can make arrangements for them!"

As if she could see what was on Daiyu's mind, Xichun spoke to comfort her.

Xichun also had a general understanding of the power of the Guanjun Marquis' Mansion. Even though Jia Hong was not here now, there were still more than a dozen martial arts masters with extremely high combat power in the mansion, not to mention some exotic beasts raised by Jia Hong, including the two white eagles brought back from Liaodong.

Although they were no match for the siege of thousands of troops in a charge, if they wanted to leave, the King of Dongping could not stop them at all.

As for those martial arts masters, don't really think they are just for nothing. In a direct confrontation, they may not be able to defeat an army of a thousand people, but if they assassinate in secret, even the imperial palace can be defeated twice, not to mention a rebellious prince. It can be said that if the Marquis's Mansion is willing to pay any price, it is capable of assassinating the rebellious prince. Moreover, she knew that Jia Hong was still there, so the outcome of this battle of attack and defense of the capital would definitely not be as the outside world said.

Hearing Xichun's comfort, Daiyu frowned and said nothing. She had lived in the Marquis' Mansion for a period of time. There were indeed many agile masters in the Mansion, but facing the approaching army, very little personal strength could be exerted.

In addition, although Jia Hong is still alive, his injuries have not fully recovered. In such a short period of time, he may not be able to exert his full strength. In her opinion, the outcome of this battle, victory or defeat, is still difficult to say.

However, when it comes to personal issues, she does not doubt what Xichun said. It's just a few people. If it really comes to that, not to mention the Marquis's Mansion, even the Lin Mansion and the Jia Mansion would be able to arrange it.

She had no doubt about this point, so this was the real reason why Madam Xing in the mansion instigated Jia She to secretly arrange a retreat and why Madam Wang was making her own plans.

They do have the ability to arrange for some people to secretly leave the capital. These big families have been rooted in the capital for decades, so it is not surprising that they have one or two secret channels.

"Sister Bao is here!"

"Bao Girl"

Seeing Baochai coming over, Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xiangyun all stood up to greet her.

"What's wrong? Why do you look so unhappy? What happened? If it's convenient, you can tell me and I'll help you think about it!"

In fact, Baochai had some guesses about the content of the conversation between the three girls. As far as the current situation was concerned, they were talking about nothing more than those things.

"Nothing. I just heard about the situation outside. It seems that the rebellious Prince of Dongping defeated the army sent by the court and is now heading towards the capital! If the capital can't stop them, what should we do?"

The three girls talked one after another and gave a general idea of ​​what happened. Perhaps this was what they were most concerned about at the moment.

Then, Tanchun continued, "I wanted to ask my second brother something, but I heard from the people in his room that he was called over by the old lady, along with the master and his wife, the eldest master and mistress, Sister Feng, and Brother Lian. I'm afraid they want to discuss something."

"Brother Bao is there too?"

Baochai was stunned. She did not doubt what Tanchun said. Jia Baoyu had changed a lot since he woke up, and the changes were huge. She had seen it with her own eyes. It seemed reasonable to let him go at this time.

"Sister Bao, don't you find it strange? Brother Ai is so young, but he can already discuss important matters with the masters and ladies. Anyway, before, our Shi family would never ask my brothers to discuss these things."

Hearing Xiangyun's words, Baochai couldn't help shaking her head in her heart. Although she had never seen what kind of people the Shi brothers were, there were not many people who could match Jia Baoyu's character at the moment.

"Xiangyun, Brother Bao has changed a lot in this period of time, you know that. Besides, it is said that ambition is not limited by age. Let's not talk about the distant past. Gan Luo became prime minister at the age of twelve. Let's talk about our brother Xuan. When he left the capital for Liaodong, he was not even as old as Brother Bao now!"

"Can that be the same?"

Xiangyun subconsciously retorted and then stuck out her tongue. Although what she said made sense, it sounded like she was belittling Jia Baoyu. But that was the fact. In this girl's heart, Jia Hong had long been a unique existence.

"I hope the imperial court can win this battle!"

Baochai wanted to say something but stopped herself, and finally sighed softly.

  It seemed that she had something else to say, but she didn't say it in the end. As a wealthy family, there were always ways to send people away. However, the wealth and status of the family now depended on the court. If the court was defeated, they would probably be thrown down from the clouds. At that time, what would be the use of escaping?

"Let them talk about their own opinions. I want to hear what Sister Bao thinks about this matter."
