The eldest son of the red mansion

Chapter 475
Mother Jia and Mrs. Zhang talked for nearly an hour, and the maid outside came to report that the master had finished drinking, and Lord Shihou wanted to come in and bid farewell to the old lady.

So Jia's mother hurriedly told them to enter again. After a while, the door curtain was opened, and Jia Zheng and others came in from the outside.

When he came in, he was smelled of alcohol. Jia Zheng and Jia Ke were not bad. Jia Zheng rarely drank alcohol, so he didn't eat much. As a general, Jia Ke drank these few glasses of wine as if nothing happened.

Only Shi Nai's face was flushed now, and he had drunk a lot when he saw it, but he was still sober after all, and he didn't forget to salute Jia Mu after he came in.

Seeing their appearance, Jia's mother complained unhappily to Jia Zheng, "Why eat so much? He has something to do when he goes back. Isn't this delaying his trip?"

How could Shi Nai allow Jia Zheng to be blamed by Jia's mother, he quickly answered, "I don't blame my second cousin, it's because I'm in a good mood today, so I ate a few more glasses."

Then the two sides chatted a few more gossips, and Shi Nai got up to say goodbye, after all, they still had a lot of business at home, and they had to go south to Yangzhou in a few days.

Knowing their situation, Jia's mother didn't want to keep them anymore, she just kept holding Shi Nai's hand and sent him out of the compound, and then came back reluctantly.

And Shi Nai, with tears on his face, kept saying goodbye like Mother Jia, and the few of them lingered at the door for a long time before they parted.

Mother Jia had been waiting for Shi Nai and others to disappear, and then, with tears in her eyes, floated back into the house from the mandarin duck.

At night, Jia Ke returned to his Wuyanghou mansion, where Qin Keqing had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Grandpa is only coming back now. Could it be that a little beauty outside caught you." Qin Keqing saw Jia Ke coming back, and even though she went up to get him a change of clothes, the strong smell of vinegar in her mouth could not disappear no matter what.

"Why are you jealous? She's just a little girl, so she's not as mature and beautiful as our Keqing. This is just the old lady leaving their historians a way out." Seeing Qin Keqing jealous, Jia Ke quickly explained.

Then, in order to please Qin Keqing, Jia Ke's flattery rushed over like a torrent of water.

To be honest, Jia Ge loves Qin Keqing like the apple of his eye now, and the other three concubines are less frequented now, and they only go once or twice a month to have fun.

This can't be blamed on Jia Ke. Qin Keqing's appearance is the most beautiful woman Jia Ke has ever seen. If she doesn't pamper her a little bit, is she still a man?

When Qin Keqing heard Jia Ke's praise, her face immediately turned red.Somewhat shyly, he helped Jia Ke to the upright position.

"In another month, it will be the first day of September. Do you have anything to do?" Qin Keqing saw that Jia Ke was getting worse and worse, so she hurriedly changed the subject.

Jia Ke frowned when she heard that, "I'm really busy these few days. Could it be that there is something important going on that day?"

"It's nothing, but it's Sister Feng's birthday. The old lady said a few days ago that everyone should join in and treat her well." Qin Keqing came to rub Jia Ke's shoulders behind him, and whispered in his ear .

Jia Ke immediately felt a scent swirling in his nose, which made him a little distracted. He really deserves to be the number one little fairy in Dream of the Red Chamber.

"Then I'll try my best to come back before noon. At that time, I just need to show up at the banquet. You can take care of the rest." Jia Ke turned around and hugged Qin Keqing, letting her sit on his lap.

Qin Keqing hugged Jia Ke's neck, giggled and said, "Don't you have a representative from the old lady? How can I be needed?"

Jia Ke slapped her on the buttocks, "I made you mischievous, you will learn your lesson from this blow."

Qin Keqing only felt that her cheeks were flushed, and she hugged the neck of the jacket charmingly, "Please forgive me this time, I won't dare to do it again."

Jia Ke was so tickled by her teasing that the lights in the room went out after a while.

For the next period of time, Jia Ke still went to the Military Aircraft Department every day to do some work. Now he has stricter management of personnel transfers in the Military Aircraft Department, and he almost wants to make Liu Yu, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, empty.

Jia Ke entered the military aircraft department as usual, and just as he was ready, Lei Yingfei, Minister of the Ministry of War, also ran into the military aircraft department.

Lei Ying saw that no one else had come yet, only Jia Ke was sitting there.Regardless of whether he and Jia Ke are political enemies, he immediately came to Jia Ke.

"Miss Jia is not well, something important has happened at the border." Lei Ying said impatiently as soon as she arrived at Jia Ke's desk.

Jia Ke glanced at him expressionlessly, and then said lightly, "Master Lei, what's wrong? You're so anxious. The sky hasn't fallen yet."

"Okay, my Lord Jia, this is burning your eyebrows, you can still be so calm, please read this report quickly."

After Lei Ying finished speaking, she sent a memorial to Jia Ke.

Jia Ke took it calmly and opened it to have a look.I was also taken aback. It turned out that the report clearly stated that the Tatars in the north had gathered tens of thousands of horses outside Gubeikou. It seemed that they would go south again this year. Because of the emergency, they sent 10 Liga Urgent, let the court prepare early.

After reading this memorial, Jia Ke actually felt a little displeased.He spent so much energy arranging intelligence agencies, he never thought that his own intelligence network would not be able to discover such important news.This is no small omission.

After Jia Ke finished reading, she tapped her fingers on the table while thinking about the next strategy.

Next, should we take the initiative to attack the enemy outside the country, or go deep and wipe out the enemy inside the country?
Lei Ying watched Jia Ke meditating there, and his eyes began to wander.

At this time, Liu Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, also came to the military aircraft department.

Seeing that he had an ally coming, Lei Ying hurried over to pull him to Jia Ke's side, and handed the memorial to Liu Yu from Jia Ke's desk.

"Lord Liu, please take a quick look. This news is serious. Let's discuss a countermeasure so that we can report it to the emperor." Lei Ying urged Liu Yu to read the memorial as soon as possible, so that everyone can discuss the result later. .

Just as Liu Yu was holding the zongzi and frowning more and more, the other two military ministers, Yuan Meng Ming, Dean of the Imperial Academy, and Sun Yan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, also came to the military aircraft department.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Jia Ke said, "Please come here, both of you. I have something to inform the two adults."

The two were going to sit back in their seats, but when they heard what Jia Ke said, they hurried to Jia Ke's side.

"Just now, Lord Lei Yinglei, Minister of the Ministry of War, sent an urgent memorial to the border. It seems to be from Gubeikou. It is said that the Tatars have gathered tens of thousands of people at Gubei Port. It seems that this year they will go south again. The goal I suspect it's still near the capital."

As soon as Jia Ke finished speaking, the two people turned pale with shock. A few years ago, the Tatars had such a time, and that time was really upside down.

At that time, the Tatars invaded, which not only caused heavy losses to the capital, but more importantly, the deposed prince seized the opportunity and almost threw the emperor off his horse.

Liu Yu had already read the memorial carefully at this time, "What I mean is to quickly gather troops and horses to go to Gubeikou to resist the enemy. It is best to defeat them on the grassland, so as to prevent the people of our dynasty from losing court turmoil."

As soon as Liu Yu finished his opinion, Lei Ying couldn't wait to agree, "I think Master Liu said that if we solve it immediately, it will be difficult to deal with it when the Tatars enter our Central Plains."

At this moment, Meng Ming, the dean of the Imperial Academy, quietly glanced at Jia Ke, then bowed his head in a state of thought, without expressing any opinion.

Sun Yan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, thought for a while, "I don't have much experience in military affairs. I think this kind of thing should be left to Mr. Jia. After all, he has been on the battlefield for so long that we civilian officials can't match."

Lei Ying and Liu Yu glanced at each other, and felt that Sun Yan, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, was right under normal circumstances, but this time Jia Ke couldn't let Jia Ke make the decision anyway.

Liu Yu immediately retorted: "What we're discussing here is not about arranging troops, attacking, killing and defending, but about a grand strategy. I don't think Mr. Jia has experienced it before. Let's discuss this matter."

Jia Ke just smiled and didn't say anything.Now the information is just a memorial, and he is not as good as the specific number of troops sent by the Tatars. There is no need to argue about these now.

Let's talk about the strangeness of the 800-mile rush. It is said that tens of thousands of Tatars are going to go south, but with so many people, how much food and grass will be consumed, how can the Tatars hold on with their national strength? It is doubtful. There are many places.

Seeing that no one opened their mouths, Liu Yu continued, "For the sake of the safety of the people in the Central Plains, we should immediately gather troops and go northward to fight the Tatars to the death."

Jia Ke thought for a while and felt that he should say a few words by himself, otherwise, these people have already forgotten who is in charge of this military aircraft department.

"I think it's better to lure the enemy to go deep. As long as they attack from Xuanfu Town and Liaodong, and there are troops from the capital, even if he comes with 60 or [-] yuan, he will suffer heavy losses at the foot of the capital. I can't recover from within."

After hearing Jia Ke's words, Lei Ying immediately became unhappy, "Master Jia, you mean to let the Tatars ravage millions of people around the capital? If this is the case, what do you want us officials from the court to do?" ?”

Jia Ke was also annoyed when he heard Lei Ying's rude words, and he slapped the table fiercely, "Where is this place? There's no room for you to speak. You still don't want to leave."

When Lei Ying heard Jia Ke's reprimand, she almost fainted. This Jia Ke was still a child, but he dared to reprimand him at the military plane because he had previously bewitched the Supreme Emperor to control the court.

But he wanted to refute, but there was no reason. What Jia Ke said was indeed polite. He is no longer the Minister of Military Aircraft. When discussing topics in the Military Aircraft Department, he can at most listen by the side. There is no room for interjection. When the Minister of Military Aircraft needs him, he is there. Supplements are given from the side, and when you don't need it, you can only keep your mouth shut and listen to it.This is the difference between the Minister of Military Aircraft and ordinary ministers.
