Headwind of the Red Mansion

Chapter 57 How Can You Be More Comfortable Than Me?
Daming Palace, Changchun Palace.

Wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, with a pale and tired face, Emperor Taiping reclined on the dragon couch, his brows were rarely relaxed, and he even hummed an unknown tune.

"Long Live Lord is in a good mood today? Every time I see Long Live Lord heavy as a mountain, my concubine is very anxious, but I feel ashamed that I can't share my worries for Long Live Lord!"

Behind him, the dignified and graceful Concubine Zhou was gently rubbing her temples for Emperor Taiping and speaking in a soft voice.

"Finally a nail has been pulled out, and I feel relieved!" Emperor Taiping sighed softly, "Don't mention it, the declining Jia family really has a good seedling."

"Jia Yizhen showed his sharpness just now, how many big gifts did he give me?!

Black Wind Valley won a complete victory at the lowest cost, which proved Jia Qiang's power in governing the army, and now the generals of the [-]th Battalion in Kyoto were speechless.

The reform of the Beijing camp has also been included in the agenda. "Pull out the pus, gouge out the sores, and purge the army beetles" will soon sweep the barracks, clean up the garbage, streamline the administration, and reduce military expenditures. The pressure on me will be much less. "

"Four kings and eight princes are the beetles of the country, gluttonous for the richness of the imperial court, but eating inside and out, collaborating with bandits, collaborating with enemies, and supporting soldiers to respect themselves, making me feel like a thorn in my back and a thorn in my throat all the time.

Jia Yi is really a lawless monkey grandson, his actions are thunderbolts, and he actually helped our soldiers control Ping'an Prefecture without bloodshed, and destroyed the ruling government. "

"At this court meeting, I heard that the treasury has received nearly 300 million yuan, like sharks smelling blood, each of them cried poorly to me.

Even impeaching Jia Qiang actually intercepted 50 taels and a thousand horses. I made them speechless with a single sentence. There are still a few bandits who have the ability to fight by themselves! "

"This matter is beautifully done, and the evidence is solid. Even Nangong has nothing to say."

Emperor Taiping was usually in the harem, so he didn't bother to say anything, but now the conversation was in full swing, and he seemed to think of something, his interest faded, and Emperor Taiping's complexion became gloomy again.

……

"Pfft..." Maybe concubine Xu thought of something to adjust the atmosphere, smiled sweetly, and immediately turned her head to smile at Bai Meisheng, "Long live, my concubine suddenly thought, this Jia's mansion is a bit like the royal family? It's just a tiny version." Royal."

"Well, tell me?!" Emperor Taiping became interested again.

"Long live Lord, the harem is not allowed to engage in politics, and the concubines just talk casually. If they make mistakes, don't blame Long Live Lord!"

"Tell me, what kind of politics is this!"

"Jia's Mansion has one family and two households. Ningguo Mansion is the eldest house, while Rongguo Mansion is the actual power holder. The court nobles are willing to make friends with Ningrong Mansion because of the existence of Chaopin's imperial wife, Mrs. Jia."

"Also, what's even more strange is that Jia She is the head of the Rongguo Mansion. He inherited the title and should be the real head of the family. However, because the old lady prefers the second house Jia Zheng, she actually let the second house be the head of the house. How can this embarrass the head of the house?"

"It is said that Jia's mansion has long been unable to make ends meet, and its daily ostentation expenses cannot be frugal. Now, although the outer shelf is not quite collapsed, the inner bag is full."

"It's not a bad thing for Jia Qiang to be expelled from Jia's mansion, just like an eagle leaving its cage, it forcibly breaks into the sky."

Although Concubine Xu Gui didn't say it clearly, what she was referring to was very clear.

Due to the existence of the Empress Dowager Xia, the originally simple and clear royal family suddenly became turbulent and undercurrents surged.

At the beginning, if it hadn't been for the Empress Dowager Xia's strong support for Emperor Taiping to accept orders in the face of danger and ascend the throne, the subsequent battle to defend Shenjing would have taken place.

Regardless of filial piety or grace, Emperor Taiping could not disobey the Empress Dowager Xia.

However, Empress Dowager Xia's own son was captured, and now she has become the Supreme Emperor, and her grandson's crown prince has been abolished. It is human nature to love a calf, and blood is thicker than water, but it has created a double suspension of the sun and the moon for the court.

The four princes and eight princes are all the old forces of the Empress Dowager Xia. Although they have been reduced a lot, they should not be underestimated.

Although Emperor Taiping was an emperor, he was restrained everywhere in his actions.

Just as Mrs. Jia favored Jia Zheng, Jia Amnesty made him a vain prince. What else could he do if he didn't marry a concubine all day long and indulge in sex, drinking and rebellious willows?

Obviously, the head of the Ningguo Mansion is respected, just like Emperor Taiping who holds a jade seal is respected, but because of the protection of the calf by the Empress Dowager Nangong Xia, the north-south balance was abruptly created. To be precise, the south is strong and the north is weak.

"From this point of view, I am in dire straits, Jia Qiang is more comfortable than me?! An independent family, rising rapidly like a vassal king!"

Emperor Taiping smiled sinisterly and teased, "He didn't hurt his back when he stood up and talked, and he scolded me to the point where I found an opportunity to let him take the title of Ningguo Mansion.

Without being in it, you can't experience the deep sense of powerlessness.

How can I make him more comfortable than me?
I'd like to see how he breaks the situation with Mrs. Jia who is actually in power?How to show your talents?Maybe it can give me some inspiration! "

"Pfft..." Concubine Zhou smiled sweetly, "Why did Long Live Lord get angry with a child?!"

"Don't look at his young age. If Ning Rong Mansion is a miniature version of the royal family, his situation is somewhat similar to mine, and he is someone who can empathize with me. It's just that this son is bold and black-hearted, and his actions are fierce. I'm all envious!"

……

While the husband and wife were talking, Jiang Ruoshui, a pretty young man dressed in green and wearing a soft-footed headband, bounced back with a smile on his face. When he saw Emperor Taiping, he hurried forward to salute him.

"At home, there's no need for these prosperous rituals!" Emperor Taiping waved his hand, and then said comfortingly, "Speaking of which, this Jia Yizhen was recommended to me by Shui'er, and he has a good eye!"

"Shui'er is so happy to be able to share a little bit of sorrow for my father!" Jiang Ruoshui said playfully, pinching the tip of her little finger with her thumb.

"Why is Shui'er so happy? His complexion is also rosy, and his mouth seems a little swollen..." Concubine Xu Guifei said with a half-smile, "Is going to the bookstore going smoothly today? Have you seen anyone else?"

"Mother Concubine..." Jiang Ruoshui's face turned hot, she lowered her head and twisted her skirt, and murmured, "Jia Yi is really back in Beijing...I left the bookstore to meet him and talk about the third volume of Journey to the West."

Jiang Ruoshui knew that she couldn't hide it from her mother, so she simply confessed, of course she concealed the most important thing.

The daughter's body has been exposed. Not only did she experience the trembling first kiss, if it weren't for the layers of corsets, even the sleeping white pigeon would have been almost pulled out.

Several hours have passed, the tingling electric current is still there, and the apex of my heart is trembling.

"Just talk about things, why are you coy?! Don't let him know your identity..."

Emperor Taiping asked out of curiosity, and then murmured, "I was supposed to summon him in the Daming Palace, I was afraid that he would recognize my queen and lose his vigor and become a flattering official...

Tomorrow afternoon, you invite him to the backyard of the bookstore, and I will visit him privately again.This child's thinking is wild and unconstrained, maybe it can bring me some inspiration! "

"My son obeys the order!" Jiang Ruoshui was overjoyed.

……

Qin Mansion.

"Old Mount Tai, we will hold the wedding ceremony in Huaiyuan the day after tomorrow!"

Jia Qiang prepared generous gifts and came to the Qin Mansion to discuss the details of the wedding, and was warmly received by Qin Ye.

The son-in-law has jumped from a fourth-rank real shortage, and has great power, higher than the official rank he has spent his entire life in.

Below the fourth rank, it is relatively easy to sell an official title, but the fourth rank is a huge watershed.

The daughter became the princess in a flash, and the marriage was bestowed by the Holy Majesty, but the root came from Jia Qiang.

This made Qin Ye and Zhao Shi feel the glory of being alone.

The eyes of his colleagues have changed, full of envy, jealousy, and hatred, making his mood like a fire. After drinking iced yogurt and lotus seed soup in June, every pore is extremely refreshing.

The procedure of the wedding has already been decided in the palace, it only needs to go through the formalities.

Qin Ye couldn’t do without exhortations, which were nothing more than the warnings of “a tree that grows beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it” and “if the sky wants to perish, it must be mad first”. In fact, Jia Qiang always chose the sword of Damocles in her heart, sober Very calm.

After all, the foundation is too shallow.

Later, he came to the embroidery room and saw Ke Qing who hadn't seen him for a long time.

"Chen, I have seen the princess!"

"Wan!" Ke Qing returned the courtesy with a playful face.

Jia Qiang ignored the existence of Baorui's Erzhu, and stretched her ape arm around her waist, only to the back, "Ah!" She cried out tenderly, but Qing had already lost her footing and was falling limp in her arms.

"From now on, even if you are the queen, you are still my woman!"

"Well... the slave family will always be my husband's child!"

Keqing is physically and mentally ready to be a bride.
