Red Mansion Beijingwang

Chapter 319 Tanchun: Desire for Knowledge

In the wing room, the candles on the elevated shelves were brightly lit, casting a circle of orange light that swayed in the wind from time to time, with varying brightness.

On the bed, with curtains all around, Tanchun is nestling in the boy's arms. A faint sweet fragrance of amber, fragrant wood, fruit wine and a faint fragrance of pollen on the clothes linger in the nostrils. The fragrance blends together, and the unique fragrance can't help but make people's hearts beat, and there is an indescribable strange feeling in the heart.

She was very familiar with this feeling, it was like this every time her brother-in-law bullied her, tingling and tingling.

With her snow-white face raised, Tanchun stared at the young man with her watery eyes, like a pool of clear water. Her green-white fingertips gently drew circles on the young man's chest, winked, and said softly: "The scenery of the Qinhuai River is so dense, is my brother-in-law confused?

Probably because he was lost in sight. If not, why would it be so quiet tonight?

Water soluble: "."

It is inappropriate to say that the scenery is enchanting. The Qinhuai River is known as the smoke and moon area of ​​the Six Dynasties and the place where gold and powder gather. What is enchanting is not the scenery, but the beauty of the boat.

There's something strange about this. Could it be that I've been very close to Daiyu in the past two days and got infected? In other words, this is a skill that is inherent in the daughter’s family.

However, there is nothing wrong with being dissolved in water, and it even makes me feel happy in my heart. After all, my men have all gone to the place of love and romance. How can I turn a blind eye? Even though the gentle and generous Yuanchun will not advise anything, he will at least give me a roll of his eyes, and then he will be harsh. To "teach a lesson".

Tanchun's words of exhortation don't just mean that he is jealous. If he takes it calmly, he will hurt this red rose in vain. After all, water dissolution not only affects the body, but also the heart.

A little greedy, but normal.

Shui Rong put his arms around the girl's waist, feeling soft and delicate, and said, "The lights are shining brightly, the scenery is red and emerald, the scenery is okay, but it's a little too noisy."

It’s true that we went to the Qinhuai River, but there was nothing romantic in Shuirong. We mostly just ate wine, listened to music, watched theater and danced.

Tanchun spat inwardly when she heard this, her clear eyes moving. The sound of stringed instruments, orioles playing on the willows on the bank in the spring sunshine, would her brother-in-law find it noisy? Perhaps she was just feeling proud.

Shui Rong looked at Tan Chun's suspicious face and understood in his heart. To be honest, Shui Rong did not dislike the noise, and even enjoyed it, but could this be said?
Looking at Tan Chun's slightly pursed pink lips, Shui Rong leaned down and pursed his lips.

There is no need to say anything at this time. Just wait and see. Is it possible to discuss the scenery of the Qinhuai River with the person next to you? Are you talking about the graceful and graceful people, or the delicate and graceful body?

Instead of looking for trouble, we might as well explore the structure of the human body.

Moreover, Tan Chun took the initiative to mention what happened on the Qinhuai River, which made Shui Rong's mind picture of the graceful elves dancing on the boat. His heart felt a little hot and he needed artificial cooling.

Girl, you took the initiative to provoke me, so you can’t blame your brother-in-law.

"Well"

Tan Chunqiao couldn't help but let out a disgusting snort, slowly closed her beautiful eyes, touched the young man's shoulders with her bare hands, and gently held her shirt, immersed in her brother-in-law's love and intimacy for her, and felt a surge of shame and joy in her heart. Sweet.

After just a moment, I felt that the red mandarin duck bellyband in front of me was piled up, and those familiar hands were as warm as jade, and then my heart was startled, and I felt wet.

The girl now raised her head slightly, enduring the numbness, and whispered: "Brother-in-law."

Shui Rong turned a deaf ear and looked at the top of the snow-capped mountains. After a while, he looked at Tan Chun, who had a faint breath and flowing eyes, and said softly: "Girl, is your mood better now?"

Hearing this, Tanchun opened her beautiful eyes, raised her eyebrows, and complained a little in her heart. At this time, it was inappropriate to mention another sister in front of her, and whether she considered her mood.

Pouting her pink lips, Tanchun said softly: "It has gotten better these past two days, but my brother-in-law also knows Sister Lin's temper. I heard Zijuan say that Sister Lin only sleeps four times and one watch every night, and then she can't sleep anymore. , weeping silently."

Shui Rong was silent when he heard the words. Daiyu had a sensitive personality and high emotional susceptibility. To put it bluntly, she was too sentimental. It was like the sadness of losing her father was magnified several times, and her heart was filled with melancholy.

Daiyu behaves normally in front of them now, just because she doesn't want them to worry, or maybe she has pride and is pretending to be strong.

Holding Tan Chun's slender hand, Shui Rong said: "I think it won't be long before Zhuo'er is going to help her return to Gusu. Third girl, you should also go with Zhuo'er. After finishing the errands, my brother-in-law will pick you up." , okay?”

Having a caring "sister" by her side can always alleviate the sadness in Daiyu's heart, and save her from feeling sorry for herself in the dead of night. It's because she is weak and will be well-rested. If she continues to endure it, she may damage her foundation. .

Tan Chun took control of the world, and felt his heart pounding with fear. His snowy face was as gorgeous as the clouds, and he followed the young man's technique step by step.

She understands the meaning of water dissolution and agrees with it in her heart, but
After pondering for a moment, Tanchun bit his pink lips lightly, looking at the young man in front of him with wavering eyes, his handsome eyebrows slightly frowned, and there was a hint of reluctance in his voice, and he said: "Then I will leave the servant letter. They, brother-in-law, can’t be left alone.”

Tan Chun was also quite worried about Daiyu's current situation. Since her brother-in-law had this intention, she just agreed. However, she came with the "orders" of the two most distinguished women in the palace, so she couldn't let her brother-in-law be without anyone around her. people.

Shui Rong lowered his eyes and looked at Tanchun, with a smile on his face. He loved Tanchun even more in his heart. Not to mention the friendship between sisters, Tanchun's cheerful and unshakable temperament highlighted his true character. How could he It makes people dislike it.

After leaning over and looking at her, Shui Rong said, "Servant Shu will follow you, leaving Xiao Hong and Wu'er to do some things like serving tea and water."

Tanchun's delicate body trembled slightly, her snow-white cheeks were as bright as clouds, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, her teeth bit her pink lips lightly, her voice was a bit coquettish and soft, and she said angrily: "Listen to my brother-in-law."

Shui Rong smiled and said nothing, and suddenly paused. He noticed something strange, smiled knowingly, stared at the girl's blushing eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Girl, you..."

I didn't expect it. Today's Tanchun seems to be too sensitive.

Tan Chun stared at the slender jade-like fingertips in front of him, feeling ashamed and unable to restrain himself. He covered his jade cheeks with his bare hands and said urgently: "Brother-in-law, stop talking."

It would be nice to know this person. Why show him naked in front of her? He is really shameless.

Hearing this, Shui Rong was noncommittal and said with a smile: "You should take more care of Qi'er, and my brother-in-law will reward you in advance."

award? What reward?
Tan Chun's jade face was slightly startled, and she had some doubts in her heart. Just when she was about to ask, she felt her heart tremble, her jade feet arched, and her pretty face turned red.

It turns out that this is the reward, then this reward is really joyful.

After a while, Shui Rong wiped his face with a handkerchief. When he saw Tanchun's delicate body trembling as if she was showing off, he couldn't help but smile knowingly. This girl, who looked dashing and heroic, was actually just a little bitch. After a while, everyone was gone.

However, "red roses" are inherently delicate. When they lose moisture, their luster will naturally become dull. It is normal to lose moisture. Replenishing some moisture can bring out the bright light again.

He reached out and pinched the girl's soft face, leaned down and asked with a smile: "Girl, are you satisfied?"

Tanchun's face turned red when he heard this, and he couldn't suppress his embarrassment. He was satisfied and satisfied, but the words came out of his mouth. He stared at the young man and saw the teasing look on the corner of his mouth, which was obviously to tease her.

Turning his head aside, Tanchun blushed and ignored the young man. He was very eloquent, but he didn't have the demeanor of a brother-in-law. He was just a sweet-talking man.

The shy daughter was the most touching. Shui Rong stretched out his hand and gently pinched the girl's chin and returned it. He stared at the girl's slender face, lowered his head and puckered her crystal lips.

"Well"

Tan Chunying's eyes widened, her brows filled with shyness. She put her bare hands in front of the young man and pushed the young man away with all her strength. She stared at the young man with her clear and bright eyes, trimmed her eyebrows and said angrily: "Brother-in-law, are you still here?" I didn’t rinse my mouth.”

How could my brother-in-law just kiss her and enjoy teasing her so much? Don't think that she doesn't know that after serving her, her brother-in-law refused to kiss him. On the other hand, he himself has no taboos and is a double-standard brother-in-law.

Bah bah
Shui Rong laughed, stood up and walked to the table. He picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea. He sipped it, suppressed the softness in his mouth, poured another cup, sat down by the couch, and handed it to the girl's lips, affectionately. Fed up. Tanchun sipped the tea, only to feel the sweetness of the tea. She licked her pink lips and stood up. Her figure was graceful, her black hair spread like clouds hanging in front of her body, and her snow-white skin was so bright under the orange light. I lowered my eyes and saw the young man sitting on the couch with his chest held high, his jade cheeks warmed slightly, and without saying a word, he lowered his head and passed away.

You are fair when you come and go, not to mention that as a sister-in-law, how can you turn a blind eye to your brother-in-law's pain? The warmth in your palms cannot be faked.

However, Tanchun's intention was good, but before he could get closer, a hand blocked him, which made Tanchun slightly surprised. He raised his charming face and looked at the young man, with some doubts and grievances in his clear eyes. , called: "Brother-in-law?"

Isn’t my brother-in-law a happy person? Why are you still trying to shirk it now? Is this going to cause trouble again?
Shui Rong stared at Tan Chun, his slender straight hair was straight down, and the snow-white and crystal-clear feet reflected the bright light under the orange light. His heart moved slightly and he whispered a few words.

When Tanchun heard this, her delicate body trembled, and her handsome eyes under her slender eyebrows showed a touch of touching shyness, and she said angrily: "Brother-in-law, this..."

Just as she thought, her brother-in-law was going to cause trouble again.

Shui Rong chuckled and called out in a gentle voice, "Good girl."

When Tanchun heard this, his heart softened, and he hesitated for a while. The snow-white face was as gorgeous as the clouds, and the young man staring at him with a pair of handsome eyes was glowing with starlight. His white and tender feet gently reached over, and there was an inexplicable feeling in his heart. Unspeakably strange.

How should I put it, Tanchun was happy deep down in his heart at his brother-in-law's endless tricks, probably because of his desire for knowledge.

But the toes are flying on the colorful luan, and the young man's words are heard in the ears, and the dancing posture is like a butterfly flying leisurely on the bean flowers, agile and elegant.

Shui Rong leaned against the couch, his eyebrows soothed, and his eyes stared at the tassels swaying in the wind on the embroidered couch. He thought of his meeting with the salt merchant on the Qinhuai River today.

In addition to discussing donations and losses, the banquet held by the salt merchants today also expressed some overt and covert criticism of the imperial salt policy reform.

Although Shui Rong does not interfere in government affairs, it does not mean that he does not care. He also knows something about the reform of salt administration.

The salt administration system of the Great Qian Dynasty implemented the commercial monopoly system of civilian system, commercial collection, commercial transportation, and commercial sales. It was called the official-supervised commercial sales system, which was the so-called outline law.

To put it simply, it is the law of hereditary selling of monopoly merchants, and the implementation of the system of "special merchants leading to the shore". The "bidding" here is the guidance ticket. Once you sell and operate salt, the citation ticket is an indispensable special qualification permit. , a bit like a business license.

The "case" refers to the place where the ticket business is conducted, which specifically specifies the location for selling salt. The collection, transportation and sales of salt in each area are controlled by merchants, and the government collects levies from merchants who specialize in selling salt. Taxes, mutual business.

Such a distribution method is very costly, and the "salt tax system" often encounters problems, and most of the intermediate circulation links are unnecessary and complicated. Office expenses basically consume most of the salt tax. , affecting taxation.

At the same time, due to hereditary inheritance, monopoly merchants had accumulated disadvantages. In view of this, Emperor Yongkang intended to reform the salt policy.

The accumulated abuses of monopoly merchants are actually the harm of monopoly. The destruction of monopoly will damage the interests of these salt merchants. They are naturally anxious. Lin Ruhai is a pioneer in promoting the reform of salt policy and urges the reform of salt policy.

At present, the salt merchants' overt and covert intention is to bribe Shui Rong with offerings, hoping that princes like him who have the right to speak will complain about this matter to the Holy One.

Shui Rong sneered at this, not to mention that he agreed with Emperor Yongkang's reform measures. He would not interfere with this matter simply because he would not participate in government affairs. The salt merchant's idea was simply a fantasy.

What it boils down to is one sentence: if you just sit back and do nothing, is it possible that a group of salt merchants can turn the world upside down?

Shui Rong didn't need to pay attention to the matter of salt administration. He just had to wait for Emperor Yongkang to appoint a new salt patrol censor. Now he was not in the mood to pay attention to such matters.

Shui Rong pinched the girl's warm and soft ankle, put her in his arms, and curled up gently.

Tan Chun's jade cheeks flushed red, and her handsome eyes stared blankly at the young man's misbehavior, with a beautiful look on her face.

After a long time, Tanchun was sitting on the edge of the couch, holding a wet handkerchief in his hand and wiping his slender jade legs. His pretty face was flushed, and his eyebrows were full of shyness.

My brother-in-law is really acting up. Now the mattress is not even clean, so how can he have a good rest?

Shui Rong didn't take it seriously when he saw this, and said with a smile: "Nothing, I need to change the mattresses."

When Tanchun heard this, his eyes looked at the wet patch on the bed, and he felt shy, but his brother-in-law was right, he had to change, otherwise, he might not be able to rest well.

Not long after, the attendants red-faced and refreshed the mattress, and then the two of them lay on the couch, Tanchun nestled in the boy's arms, listening to the boy's heartfelt thoughts, and felt contented.

Capital, Prince Yong's Mansion.

King Yong stared at Zhang Pan'er, who had a slumped face and a depressed look. His jade face, which was originally as smooth as gelatin, was now dull. His eyes flashed and he said warmly: "Pan'er, you are better."

Originally, Zhang Pan'er was pregnant, which was a good thing for King Yong, but now Zhang Pan'er was vomiting and retching very seriously. It was difficult to swallow even water, let alone eating. The state was really disturbing. Worrying.

It should be noted that people who have just become pregnant are prone to miscarriage. If they are unwell, they may
No, what Zhang Pan'er has in his belly is not only the inheritance of Prince Yong's Palace, but also a sharp weapon to tighten the Palace of Beijing, which must not be lost.

Zhang Pan'er leaned on the couch and looked at King Yong with a sickly face. When she saw his eyes staring at her belly, she became confused. Do you think King Yong was worried about her? It was actually the one in her belly that worried her.

As long as what's in her belly is safe, she doesn't care about anything else at all. This is the coolness of King Yong.

Sighing softly, Zhang Pan'er said feebly: "I'm in good shape, I'd like to thank you for your help, Your Majesty."

It doesn't matter, she understands it in her heart anyway, but what can I say, the sins caused by her uncle made her torture worse than death. At this moment, let alone a word of comfort, she couldn't even see anyone.

Although she knew there was nothing she could do, she always felt resentful in her heart. Now, she missed her uncle so much that she was really like a resentful woman in a deep harem.

King Yong frowned tightly. How could the beauty's condition make people feel relieved? But he also knew that he could not help with this matter, so he could only say warmly: "Pan'er, just be patient and wait for this to happen." , I will never let you suffer again in the future.”

Zhang Pan'er understood clearly after hearing this. This was a normal reaction for a pregnant person, but her reaction was too strong. Just get over it and it would be fine. It's just that King Yong's big cake is really disgusting.

As he said, Zhang Pan'er's stomach was churning, and he covered his mouth with a handkerchief and vomited. After a while, Zhang Pan'er regained his composure and said softly: "Your Highness, don't worry, I'll save myself."

King Yong nodded when he heard the words, turned his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Pan'er, you are not stable right now. The King of Japan will make an announcement later."

In the first few months of pregnancy, the fetus is not yet formed, and miscarriage may occur if you are not careful. Therefore, King Yong needs to take precautions. The people currently taking care of Zhang Paner are all his own, just to make sure that no one does anything.

Hearing this, Zhang Pan'er nodded her head sternly and responded: "Listen to your Majesty."

Zhang Pan'er naturally knew about the filthiness of the royal family, especially since King Yong was ultimately harmed by Queen Zhou. If they were to find out that he was pregnant, there might be something unexpected.

With that said, Zhang Paner said: "Your Majesty, I am a little tired."

At the moment, Zhang Pan'er didn't want to listen to King Yong's words. She just felt sick. If she continued to listen, she might not be able to bear it anymore.

King Yong paid great attention to the seed in Zhang Pan'er's belly, so he naturally responded to it. He said some kind words, told Zhang Pan'er to take a rest, and left.

Seeing King Yong leave, Zhang Pan'er felt a little better. She put her hand on her belly and said to herself with warmth in her eyes: "After all, she is my uncle's son. Like him, he is a noisy person. He will never stop tormenting people."
