Sword of the Red Chamber from Heaven

"It should be these two days, but I don't know when it is?"

Jia Hong suddenly spoke, but no one knew what he was saying.

Xichun blinked her eyes, as if she had guessed something. During this period, Jia Hong's injuries had almost recovered, but he had not shown up. His purpose was to completely resolve the mess in the capital.

From the information she knew, the second and fifth princes secretly won over forces in the army and took advantage of the rebellion of the princes to turn from open to secret. The third prince did not seem to win over forces in the army, but was winning over ministers in the court, and his efforts had already begun to take shape.

The retired emperor lived in seclusion in Taihe Palace and had not appeared in public for a long time. Emperor Kang of Ming Dynasty was also too busy with the rebellion of the princes during this period to take care of other things.

And the stinky Taoist priest who had been staring at Jia Hong seemed a little impatient. Each of these things was not a big deal to the court, but when they came together, they put the Dakang Dynasty, which had experienced many ups and downs, in danger of collapse.

“Who’s still useful?”

The voice was not loud, but it was firm.

Jia Hong's eyes flickered, but he finally shook his head.

At this time, his injuries had almost healed, but his strength had not yet fully recovered. Although he could still be useful in harming others, it would not be meaningful.

"That's enough."

The wind is getting colder, and many of the scenery in the yard is no longer as bright as it was in spring and summer.

In a small courtyard, two girls were talking about something, with a hint of longing in their eyes.

"If you ask me, if Brother Xuan was here, the King of Dongping would not have come to the capital, would not have come to the feet of the emperor, and would have been defeated long ago."

"Sister~~"

"Stop saying that. Brother Hong isn't here, and we don't know if he dares to make this bet! But you made the bet first."

"Second sister, look at what you said. It's too unpleasant to boost others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige."

"Why didn't Brother Hong dare to make this bet? He has driven away all the barbarians from the nine borders. I heard that the Jurchens have been a headache for the imperial court for a long time. We couldn't do anything about them, but in the end, they still lost to Brother Hong. At that time, he was still a childish boy, right?!"

"These rebels are not as powerful as those in the Nine Borders. In the south, they have experienced less war, so the swords of those soldiers must have become dull. The other two rebel groups can't even beat the border troops. This is the evidence."

"That's true."

"However, the rebels led by King Dongping have thunder bombs in their hands. If it weren't for them, they would have been defeated long ago!"

"Even if there were, they were taken care of by Brother Hong's Snow Dragon Cavalry."

The two girls were talking to each other. One of them was obviously more assertive and her analysis of problems always made people's eyes light up, while the other one was more of a listener, like an orchid quietly blooming, not fighting or competing. "Second sister, you have really changed. The feeling you give me is completely different from before. Before, Siqi stood up for you, but now I think you can stand up for Siqi."

"Third sister, no way. How have I changed? I still have one nose and two eyes. I still have to eat, drink, defecate, urinate and sleep every day. I am just a mortal! But you have become more and more beautiful in this period of time. It makes me feel like I have seen Sister Feng."

The two sisters who were talking were Yingchun and Tanchun. They had nothing to do and had originally planned to go find Baochai to play with. But on the way they heard that Baochai had gone to Lady Wang's place, Baoqin had gone to the old lady's place, and Daiyu was with Xiangyun. They thought about it and decided not to get involved with those people. They returned to their residence and started talking.

"In the past, my sister was like a wooden man, submissive and undisciplined. The maids and servants looked at my sister and bullied her, saying nonsense."

"Now, although my sister looks the same, I can feel that she has a plan in her mind. The stubborn servants around her are gone, and Siqi rarely says anything."

When Yingchun heard this, her eyes flickered slightly, as if she was recalling something.

What Tanchun said was right. She was like that at the beginning, but what else could she do in this Duke's Mansion?
She was not loved by her father, nor by her brother, and she had a stepmother. Although she was a young lady, she didn't even have a father or a mother. How could she hold herself up high? When she made a scene at the old lady's side, the old lady didn't even glance at her.

At that time she already knew that the old lady and the master in the mansion didn't like them to cause trouble. Even if they did, they shouldn't make it in front of them. They didn't like to see or hear it.

She was a sensitive person to begin with, and could see people and things very clearly, if not completely. So she gradually developed her previous personality, completely losing the demeanor of a young lady, and became submissive and timid.

Later, a lot of things happened, but the person she was most grateful to was actually Xichun, the youngest sister among her sisters.

The wet nurse was dealt with by Xichun. She witnessed the whole thing with her own eyes. There were no rules at all. They just chased the person away as soon as they found someone wrong. Siqi said that the wet nurse died inexplicably after leaving the mansion. She was so scared at the time. The wet nurse's death was so strange. She didn't need to say too much, she could guess who was behind it.

Although he is so young, he is so brave and so cruel.

Ever since that incident, everyone around her became well-behaved. Later, I heard from Siqi that these maids and old women had found out from somewhere that the wet nurse had died. They were not fools, so they all had an idea of ​​what had happened!

Later, after having more contact with Xichun, I understood why this sister dared to be so willful and no one suppressed her. In the final analysis, it was because of one person, a person who was about the same age as her.

Jia Hong, a little-known person from the East Palace, she had never even heard of any news about him before, but later he was directly conferred the title of Marquis of Guanjun by the court.

To be honest, her admiration for Jia Hong was no less than that for her third sister, and even more.

Jia Hong's background was not even as good as hers. He almost starved to death in the East Palace. At least she had never experienced such an experience. It was at that time that Xichun and the young man met. Of course, it was also because of that time that Jia Hong became Xichun's backer.

In her dreams at midnight, she even fantasized that it was herself who had been connected with Jia Hong back then. If so, her life would be much better now. As for being a county lady, she dared not even think about it.

Later, Jia Hong returned to Beijing. His appearance, ability, and even personality satisfied all her fantasies about her other half.

It was also because he was close to Xiao Xichun that he never encountered any troubles. Although he seemed to be taking advantage of the power of others, he was able to get out of the quagmire he was in after all.
