dream of red mansion

Chapter 660
Following Ying'er to Baochai's boudoir, Baochai was doing needlework by the window.

"How did you come."

"I'll come see you."

Although the sun has gone down, the residual heat has not dissipated.She was in her own room again, so Baochai only wore a light yellow gauze dress, showing her plump figure to the fullest.

Jia Qing sat opposite her, looking at the beauty in front of her.

"I'll go get you a glass of water." Baochai felt uncomfortable being looked at, so she put down her bandages and prepared to get up.

"No need, just ask Yinger to do this kind of thing, just sit and talk with me."

Baochai paused.She knew Jia Qing's temperament, if she didn't obey him, who knew what tricks he would try again.

This kind of person can't be kicked out, it's really hateful.

He picks up the needle and thread again, turns his body sideways, so that the front is not facing Jia Qing.She didn't know that from this angle, what Jia Qing saw of her was even more breathtaking.

After watching her for a long time, Jia Qing knew that Baochai would be too embarrassed to speak so staring at her, so she turned her head and teased the bird in the cage on the window sill, saying, "Sister Bao doesn't welcome me?"

"Of course not." Baochai looked up at him in surprise.

"Then you don't look at me, and don't talk to me."

Baochai was at a loss for words.Xin said: "Looking at people like you do, how can others have the nerve to look at you?"

After thinking for a while, she asked softly: "I heard that you went to the princess's mansion as the commander of the guards?"

"Ah."

"The princess is easy to get along with?"

Jia Qing was slightly surprised: "Why do you ask like that?"

Since Princess Xingyue visited Rongguo Mansion that day, the entire Jia Manor had a surprisingly good impression of her.No matter how Jia Qing tries to set things right, everyone just thinks he is narrow-minded.
Only then did Jia Qing realize the power of Princess Xingyue's "preemptive strike".

"I heard from people outside that the princess is very favored in the palace and is the jewel in the palm of the Supreme Emperor. Besides, I think he seems to have a prejudice against you. How can you become a subordinate official in her mansion?"

Jia Qing naturally heard Baochai's words were very euphemistic.In fact, Princess Xingyue should hate him very much!

"Well, this is hard to describe. But don't worry, she is just a little capricious, and I can handle it."

Baochai worried again and again, and slowly said: "After all, the princess is a golden branch and a jade leaf, and she is also young. It is normal to have a bad temper. You should let her more."

Although I don't know what rift happened between Jia Qing and Princess Xingyue.But based on her understanding of Jia Qing's character and Princess Xingyue's attitude towards Jia Qing that day, she could guess something.

"Okay, I see." Jia Qing said perfunctorily.

Based on his understanding of Princess Xingyue's character, Jia Qing believes that it is not the one who will make you feel better if you let her go.Min Ning, the second prince, is enough to let her go, right?She didn't mean to blackmail when she said blackmail, and to steal people's love when she wanted to, and she didn't care about her aunt and nephew at all.

No matter how Baochai couldn't see Jia Qing's attitude, there was nothing he could do. Naturally, he couldn't say any more, so he just nodded and continued to work.

Seeing that Baochai no longer talked to him and was bored, Jia Qing stretched out his hand to poke the head of the eavesdropping Huang Yinger.Being dodged by it, it pecked Jia Qing's finger in turn.

Jia Qing smiled and couldn't think of anything to talk to Baochai for a while, so she said, "Then I'll go back."

"En." Baochai nodded.

After a while, when Jia Qing didn't get up, she looked at him suspiciously.

Jia Qing said with a bright smile: "There is still a process that has not been completed, have you forgotten?"

Baochai froze for a moment, then her hands trembled, and the needle in her hand almost pricked herself.

Since these days, every time Jia Qing came to visit her, as long as he was not in front of others, he would always secretly kiss her when she was not prepared.

Originally, she was quite ashamed and indignant at Jia Qing's stealthy behavior.Unexpectedly, does Jia Qing actually want to come here in a fair manner?

"I'm going to see Yinger." Baochai put down her things, stood up and wanted to go out.

"Ah~" Without a doubt, Jia Qing grabbed her hand, and after a while of spinning, she fell into Jia Qing's arms.

"Let go of me, people will see what it will look like!" Baochai struggled.

She is such a polite person, but now she is treated so lightly by Jia Qing, she almost feels ashamed.

"It's okay, Ying'er is watching outside, no one will come in."

Jia Qing is not stupid.Every time he came to see Baochai, Yinger obediently went out to guard after pouring tea.

She is not his maid, if there is no acquiescence of Baochai, how can he have such a loyal and reliable "wingman"?
Holding the moving body tightly in his arms, he slowly bent down.
"Uh~ noh"

Hehe, Sister Bao's taste is not enough for outsiders to understand.

At night, more than a dozen people galloped on their horses and came to the gate of the stalwart city of Shenjing.

"Stop! Who!!"

The general guarding the city stood on the tower and shouted to stop.

Now that the time to close the city gate has passed, as long as the other party behaves abnormally, he has the right to order them to be shot.

"I am Wang Gang, the school lieutenant under Prince Teng of the Border Pass. I was ordered by the king to escort Princess Tana of the Tatar Khanate to Beijing and ask the general to open the city gate!"

On the tower, a captain next to the city guard reminded: "My lord, you are under the rule of the king. It seems that something happened at the border again."

The general guarding the city nodded, and said solemnly: "Go and report to Master Jiedushi."

"Yes." The captain immediately led people down to the city.

"Please invite the princess and Wang Xiaowei to enter the city, and the rest of you will stay where you are! I hope the princess will forgive me for my duty."

"Okay, open the city gate!"

The second day was not the day of the court meeting, but all the officials who entered the palace in Beijing, regardless of whether they were sick or not, all obediently entered the palace to attend the morning court.

No way, before dawn, the big clock on the Jingyang Tower rang "Duang", "Duang", "Duang", which shocked people's brains.

You know, the court meeting on weekdays is just a small bell "dong", "dong", "dong".

Who dare not come?

However, they came on time, but they all stood in the hall and waited for half an hour, but there was still no sign of the emperor.

Moreover, not only the emperor, but they also keenly discovered that all the big bosses in the cabinet, the top few councilors of the military machine cabinet, as well as the ministers of the Ministry of war and the ministers of the household department were all absent.

In such a situation, even people who just eat and wait to die all day long and don't care about the government at all find the seriousness of the situation, and quickly tidy up their appearance quietly, so as not to be punished for such a small problem later
Fortunately, they didn't make them wait too long, and the bosses came back after a while, but they didn't seem to be in good spirits.Some even looked sad.

Immediately afterwards, the emperor came to the court, and the first action of everyone was naturally to shout long live.

Emperor Zhengqing sat on the dragon chair with a silent expression, with a trace of fatigue in his eyes, but he quickly disappeared, and after calling all the officials to flatten with a wave of his big hand, he was the first to speak: "Your dear friends, you know, today I am with you. Why did the adults in the two pavilions arrive half an hour late?"

Everyone first looked at each other in blank dismay, and then seemed to have a tacit understanding, most of them said in unison: "I don't know, please make it clear, Your Majesty."

"Since everyone doesn't know it yet, please ask Elder He Ge to explain it to all the ministers."

"The minister obeys the order."

He Shanbao came out and said to the ministers: "The Russian Cossack cavalry has broken through the Tatar Khanate, and the army is going south. It is estimated that they are going to fight against me, Dachu. Last night, His Majesty summoned us late at night to discuss countermeasures.

At this time of crisis, if you adults have any good strategies, you might as well say them all. "

Emperor Zhengqing was very displeased.He just asked him to explain, the latter sentence should be said by him!
In fact, He Shanbao, as the chief assistant, led all the officials, so it was no problem to say this.But Emperor Zhengqing really cared about him, so naturally he disliked everything.

"Has the Tatar Department been defeated?"

"This is really going to be a war."

"Master Zhang, what do you think our odds of winning will be if we fight this battle?"

When they heard that the Russian cavalry had gone south, all the pampered ministers panicked.

Russia is a big country with a strong military force. After decades of contacts, most of the officials in the Great Chu have agreed.

I heard that their royal city is tens of thousands of miles away, but they can send envoys to their big Chu.Moreover, in recent decades, there have been frequent news that the northern nomads have been wiped out by them.
Great Chu set up nine important towns on the northern line of the territory. In addition to preventing the prying eyes of the Mongolian tribes and small border countries, more importantly, it is also to deal with this "bear" who may go south at any time, this "bear" from the far north.

"Silence!" Dai Quan observed his words and saw that Emperor Zhengqing was not happy with the noisy hall, so he shouted at the top of his voice.

The hall fell silent instantly.

Emperor Zhengqing said: "I invite Princess Nagus-Tana of the Tatar Khanate to enter the palace."
