Everyone froze in place, there was nothing trivial about the royal family, and the sun had already set. What kind of thing made the emperor so anxious that he summoned him late at night.

However, Jia Yuan had a vague guess. He had just seen it during the day, and now he saw it again. There must be a new change in the war in the north.

"It's okay, I'll take care of it. After eating, let Qin arrange to send you back."

"Second brother, where is Your Majesty?" Lin Daiyu was alert. Although the Jia family is said to be a distinguished and wealthy family, none of them is close to His Majesty. He does have an official position, but he hasn't seen the emperor a few times except for the Dachaohui.

"It's okay, what was decided earlier, I don't know if there is any change in His Majesty, it's not a big deal." Jia Yuan didn't seem to worry them.

"Second Lord, Lord Tian has urged you again, saying that it is extremely urgent, and asks you to quickly follow him into the palace." Another black-clothed guard came.

"Understood, prepare the horse." Jia Yuan had already put on his clothes, and everyone stopped to look at him.

Jia Yuan said helplessly: "Every time it is good, I have to worry about you. Next time I will go to the west to find you, so that no one will bother you."

"Second brother, go quickly, the outside matters are important, we can't see each other that day" everyone tried to persuade them one after another, maybe only here they knew that Jia's second mansion was not the fairy palace mansion, and there were people running around outside.

Everyone got up to see each other off, they only stood at the middle gate, seeing a general in brocade clothes flying fish coming in front of them, they didn't go forward to see each other off.

But the sound is still audible.

"Second Lord Jia, the northern border has undergone drastic changes, and the Black Wood Royal Court has sent masters to provoke you. Your Majesty orders you to put on your armor and enter the palace as soon as possible."

"Put on armor?" Lin Daiyu was startled suddenly: "Could it be that you are going to the battlefield?"

Lin Daiyu was just guessing in her heart, but Shi Xiangyun was young and asked directly: "Isn't the second elder brother going to study for a scientific examination? Why do you have to go into battle?"

No one answered, everyone prayed silently, only a rush of horseshoes sent them off.

dark night, thick ink

The delicious food on the table was no longer as attractive as before. Even Xiao Xichun vaguely guessed that her brother was going to go to the battlefield, crying and clamoring to find him, but the eleven-year-old child just now found some food under Jia Yuan's care. Children should be innocent, but they don't want to go so fast.

Qin Keqing sent them back to Xifu.

But Lin Daiyu couldn't sleep.

"Girl, it's time to rest, it's going to be the third watch." Zijuan guarded the girl, and came several times because of sleepiness.

When Daiyu was ill, she often couldn't sleep, but she didn't stay awake until midnight, when the candles flickered and the cold wind howled in the darkness outside.

"Zijuan, is there any movement in the east? Has the second master returned home?"

Zijuan said helplessly: "It's late at night, the two sides are so far apart, where can I hear it?"

As soon as the voice fell, suddenly the muffled and heavy drums from the east exploded, like a dull rolling thunder, which came suddenly and caught people off guard. lights.

"What kind of drum is this? Where is the sound of the drum?" Jia Zheng woke up suddenly from his sound sleep. The outside was already in chaos.

The old lady heard the sound of the drum, and broke out in a cold sweat in her sleep. Before her eyes, the golden years of following her husband when she was young were reappearing.

Jia Baoyu rushed out of the room angrily: "Whose house is this? The drums are beating in the middle of the night, and those who disturb them will have no peace."

Daiyu, Baochai, Yingchun, Tanchun, Xiangyun, and others went out one after another. They all lived around the old lady. If there was any movement, someone would definitely go to and from the old lady.

Wang Xifeng also woke up from the dream, and slapped Jia Lian next to her three times in a row, waking up: "I can't wait, you're still asleep, quickly listen to what kind of drum this is?"

Jia Lian was a heavy sleeper, and was suddenly woken up or woke up. Subconsciously, he was about to get angry, but he was startled by the sound of the drum, but he just sat there in a daze.

"Quickly tell me, what drum?" Wang Xifeng is a woman in a boudoir. Although the Wang family is a family of martial arts, but Wang Ziteng is not good at martial arts, but he is sick. Everyone knows something is wrong.

"What drum? War drum, what drum, hurry up, go to the old lady's place!" Jia Lian got up quickly.

"War drums? Is there a war?" Wang Xifeng obviously couldn't keep up with his train of thought: "It sounds to the east, who is beating the drums?"

"How do I know, you go to the old lady's place to guard. For people like us, the sound of the war drum will break the sky, so don't go quickly."

Wang Xifeng hurriedly called Ping'er to help clean up, and came to the old lady, and sure enough, the old lady also got up.

"Why don't you stop? Still don't stop?" Jia Baoyu stomped his feet angrily, and the maids and women on the side tried to dissuade him, for fear that the master would make trouble again.

"Baoyu, don't mess around." The old lady's voice was different from her usual kindness and generosity, but at this moment it was extremely solemn.

"Old ancestor, it sounds like war drums, but I don't know what they are beating on? But what happened to the east?" Wang Xifeng asked cautiously.

"Well, it's a shame that you know it's the sound of a war drum. The Jia family hasn't heard this sound for decades." The old lady said with tears in her eyes: "It's Duke Ning's war drum. It means to send out the war drum. People go to the front and ask the master, is Brother Yan going to fight?"

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, the sound of drums in the east, and the sound of drums in the streets in the south and north, and not long after, the drums sounded in most of the generals' homes in the capital.

Until the sound of the Longmen Jujiang drum in front of the main hall of the Imperial Palace Dance Ceremony, no one in the entire capital fell asleep.

"Old Ancestor, this...is scary" Jia Baoyu shivered and hid in Jia's mother's arms.

Mother Jia sighed heavily, "Baoyu, Baoyu, as long as Jia Yuan has three points, she won't worry about it when she gets old."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, this is the imperial court's mobilization of troops, and the generals of all the prefectures must beat the drums in the mansion to summon their guards, go to the imperial palace to order the generals, and they will leave after a while."

Sure enough, the war drums only rang for a while, and then they all fell silent, and the sound of the war drums outside gradually died down, only the drums in the direction of the palace continued to ring.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Go back to the old lady, the second master said that the northern wolves are on the sidelines, and His Majesty sent an order to go out and order the generals of the second master of the Dongfu. Please don't panic."

"Is it really the second brother Yuan?" Everyone had guessed for a long time, and the only one in the whole family who was capable of going to the battlefield was Jia Yuan over there.

"It's fine to go, but with all his abilities, he stays in Dongfu to manage his business, and he is the secret investment of the pearl." Jia Baoyu was taught a lesson by Jia Fan, and this person is not good. Already blooming with joy.

It's just that Lin Daiyu's words felt particularly harsh when they fell into Lin Daiyu's ears: "Without merchant management, how can you support the entire family, and how come it becomes a splash in your mouth?"
