dream of red mansion

Chapter 661 Can't be saved or not?
Ningguo Mansion ushered in a great day today.

From today onwards, Ningguo Mansion will have one more master!
That's right, the handsome and suave Second Master Qing of Ningguo Mansion has a son from today
Although he was not his own son, everyone in the Ningguo Mansion knew that their second master had always valued the second master Yun on the back porch. Most of the big and small things outside these years were handled by the second master Yun.

A while ago, I heard that the second master had consolidated the industries in the mansion and set up something called "Jia's Firm".

The name inside is also quite strange, and Erye Yun was named as the "executive president" to take charge of all industries.Even Manager Lai and Manager Li in the mansion have become the subordinates of Second Master Yun.
All in all, their Second Master is closer to Second Master Yun than his own son!
Now it is reasonable to adopt him under the Ningguo Mansion and become his son seriously, and he deserves his name.

Early in the morning, the Ningguo Mansion was full of voices, and almost all of the Jia family in the eighth room in Beijing sent people over.

Those who live in a little poverty, or those who are greedy for cheap and love to join in the fun, even bring the whole family with them, and plan to take this opportunity to eat and drink in the big room.

"Open~zong~ci~~!!"

As the youngest son of the first Duke Rong, Jia Dairu is the oldest member of the Jia family.Since the death of his grandson, there are only the old couple and a maidservant left in the family, and they have no income. Jia Qing, the little patriarch, takes good care of him in his life, so that he can truly appreciate the warmth and warmth of human affection when he is old.

Looking back on how many times he used the righteousness of the clan to embarrass Jia Qing and his son, he felt even more ashamed.This time when he heard that Jia Qing wanted to adopt Jia Yun, a close branch of the Rongguo Mansion, to his name, he offered to come and help him preside over the adoption etiquette.

Adoption etiquette is actually not complicated.To put it simply, there are mainly two steps, worshiping ancestors and inviting clan relatives to dinner.

After the ancestral hall is opened, please take out the ancestral tablet, and place all kinds of rice crackers, cattle and sheep, etc. offerings one by one.

Jia Qing sat sideways, while Jia Yun stepped down and knelt down.Jia Dairu stood on the upper left, and the rest stood around.

Jia Qing originally thought that he would accept Jia Yun's head here, drink a glass of wine from him, and say a few words of encouragement, which would be considered a ceremony, but Jia Dairu insisted on giving him the ceremony speech.

"Suwu Jia's family, ancestral home in Jiangning, started from Ronggu, and was named Ningrong. Yangwei's ancestor has profound virtue. The fragrance of Zu beans is steamed in spring and tasted in winter. The descendants multiply, and they are also prosperous. Abide by the ancestors' precepts, Yan Yi It still exists. The outline is always like that, and the ancestors return to the ancestors. The heavens bless the ancestors, and the ancestors' virtues are manifested. The filial piety and filial piety will last forever.

The fourth generation, Sun Jue, lived in the long house with his face up to steam and taste.If you follow the grace of heaven, your fame will flourish day by day;Dedicated to one's parents, harmonious with relatives and elders, the name of filial piety is well-known in the eight towns.

The fifth generation, Sun Yun, is respectful and diligent
"

The princess of the Tatar Khanate, dressed in a foreign military uniform, walked into the Golden Luan Hall under the leadership of her guards.

"My daughter, Nagus-Tana, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor!"

I don't want to, although this princess looks and dresses like a grassland alien, she speaks fluent Chinese, which makes all the officials in the palace look sideways.

Emperor Zhengqing was also quite satisfied with this, and said with a rare smile: "Princess Pingshen Tana, tell them why you came to the capital and how you came to the capital."

"Yes."

Tana stood up and looked around.Seeing that the palace of Great Chu is indeed more spacious, magnificent and resplendent than imagined.And the ministers in the main hall are all shrewd and hale, standing neatly, even though hundreds of people stand together, they still have a sense of solemnity.

The strength of this great Chu can be seen, and it is indeed beyond comparison with the royal court on our grassland.

What she thought in her heart was only for a moment, but Tana was actually full of anxiety at this moment, so she stood in the center of the hall and said loudly:
"As early as the fall of last year, the Russian Cossack cavalry had the intention of getting involved in our Tatar, and sent troops to plunder the herdsmen villages in the northern part of our Tatar. Thanks to the help of the country, they ordered Qiyan, Niegus and other troops to send troops to deter them, so the Cossacks Failed to drive straight down, only plundered in the north of our department.

We have frequent small-scale battles with them, and each has its own winners and losers.

It lasted until the beginning of summer this year, unexpectedly, Qiyan and Niegus suddenly withdrew their troops at the same time.Seeing that the situation was not good, the other small tribes also withdrew their troops one after another. In this way, we were left alone to fight against the entire Cossack cavalry.

In addition, Fyodor has obviously reached an agreement with Qiyan and Ningus in secret, and almost as soon as they retreated, they sent a large number of troops to invade the hinterland of our Tatar.

And our army has only 20 combatable warriors, how can we fight against [-] fierce and cruel Cossack cavalry?
In less than half a month, its vanguard troops approached the Royal Court of our Tatar Ministry.

In a hurry, my father Khan had no choice but to abandon the royal court.He also knew that the rest of the Mongolian tribes were untrustworthy, so he didn't dare to rush to join him, so he had no choice but to go all the way south, hoping to get the protection of the upper kingdom!
Because I admired the civilization of the country since I was a child, and I was fluent in Chinese, my father Khan sent me as an envoy to the capital to ask for help.I beg the kingdom to send troops to save my father Khan and save the millions of subjects of Tatar."

The more Tana talked, the more obvious the grief on her face became, and when she finally said the word for help, she couldn't hold back her strength anymore and cried out.

But the ministers in the palace didn't have the heart to appease this exotic princess.

"20? Didn't you say there were only 20? When did it become [-]?"

Xu Jie, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, turned pale with shock.

Cossack cavalry.Just by looking at the names, you can tell that they are all cavalry, no infantry!

The 20 Cossack cavalry is definitely an invincible force on the prairie of Yimapingchuan!

How can this be saved?Xu Jie felt that what they should think about now was how to protect themselves.

The heavy infantry of the Great Chu, and the cavalry of the entire Great Chu may not add up to 20.If, as the princess said, both Qiyan and Niegus have rebelled, then Da Chu can only think about how to keep the nine sides.

Princess Tana obviously saw that standing in the front row meant retreat in the eyes of my minister, she quickly said: "As far as we know, the total number of Russian Cossack cavalry is only 30 to [-]. There is no need to use almost all of your strength.

Among the three major tribes of Mongolia, our Tatars are the closest to Dachu, as long as we eliminate our Tatars, their cavalry can go all the way south, bypass your important town of Yansui, and approach your Datong and Xuanfu."

The Yansui, Datong, and Xuanfu that Tana mentioned are the three important military towns in the north of Dachu.It seemed that she had done her homework before coming here.

What she meant was that the Cossacks invaded Tatar just to clear the way, and their real goal was Dachu!
Because Datong and Xuanfu are the gateways to the capital!
"The Fyodor the princess talks about is the commander of the Cossack cavalry?"

Cui Wenlong is a civil servant, and he doesn't want to fight.But now it seems that this battle is inevitable, and he also knows that Emperor Zhengqing has been preparing for this battle for more than half a year.
Therefore, he must learn as much information about the enemy as possible.

"Yes, he is the supreme commander in command of the Cossacks. It is said that he is the Duke of Russia. I am not too clear about the rest."

Hearing this, Cui Wenlong said to Emperor Zhengqing: "Prince Alevich may know about this Fyodor. Your Majesty might as well send him in to ask."

"Quite." Emperor Zhengqing said.

Tana was in a hurry, she said: "Your Majesty, the Tatar tribe has always been loyal to the Great Chu, and has never violated the border for decades. Now that Tatar is on the verge of exterminating the clan, please send troops quickly to save me. Subjects, they are also subjects of Great Chu."

Emperor Zhengqing sat high on the table, expressionless.

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were also silent.

Tana was about to despair.

She had guessed that Da Chu might not send troops to rescue Tatar, but she had no other way, and her father Khan had no other way, so she came to the capital of Da Chu.

"Hey~!"

Fang Shou sighed softly, and said, "How long has the princess been on this journey?"

Tana was taken aback for a moment, she somewhat understood what the elder minister meant.

"We almost never rested day and night, without any delay. On the way, Lord Wang Ziteng sent troops to help us. We traveled fast, but according to my separation from Father Khan, it has been more than a month and ten days."

"According to what the princess said, the Cossacks rushed forward, but after half a month, the peak of soldiers pointed directly at your royal court, and your father Khan has already abandoned the royal court. Without effective resistance, more than a month is enough The Cossacks have crossed your Tatar division.

Even if we send troops at this time, we will not be able to save Tatar. "

Tana turned pale for a moment.
