dream of red mansion

Chapter 824
"Brother, sit down."

When everyone else retreated, Yuan Chun immediately put away her empress dowager posture, and called Jia Qing to sit down as a sister.

"It was delivered by the Imperial Dining Room today. I ate two pieces and thought it tasted good. My second brother will try it too."

After Jia Qing sat down, Yuan Chun personally brought over a plate of pastries from the jade box next to him.

Jia Qing was not too polite, picked up a piece, tasted it, praised it, and then asked: "Big Sister called me here today, why?"

Yuan Chun had already sat back on the phoenix couch at this time, with his hands folded on his knees, his expression was quiet, his makeup was luxurious, and his face was as bright as a rosy glow.

Speaking of which, Yuan Chun is only 28 and nine years old now, but he already bears the honor of "Queen Dowager".

Of course, this is actually not unusual. It is not uncommon for queen mothers who were younger than Yuanchun in history.

Yuan Chun was watching Jia Qing eating with a smile, but he restrained his smile when he heard the words, and said: "I heard that in the court today, some ministers said that Gan'er's first birthday celebration is too wasteful of national power... This matter is very important to Gan'er." Will it have any effect?"

Jia Qing shook his head and said: "Elder Sister is too worried. Yu Shangshu is a rare official in the imperial court, but his political vision is not good enough. The reason why he said this is only out of public interest, not for His Royal Highness. He objected. Taifu Li has already made a final decision on this matter, and no one will use this point to make a fuss."

"That's good." Yuan Chun said, noticing that Jia Qing was looking at her strangely, she blushed slightly, and said, "Second brother, don't laugh at me as a woman, Gan'er was appointed as the crown prince when he was born. I have never lived a peaceful day in my heart, and I am always in a state of anxiety and fear."

Jia Qing shook his head, he didn't mean to laugh at it.Yuan Chun is not a stupid woman, she was raised by Jia Mu since she was a child, she is familiar with the collection of classics and history, and she is extremely intelligent.

Plus, the current emperor is Min Ning after all.Brothers are no better than father and son. Although there are many cases in history where brothers end up with brothers, there are special circumstances without exception, and the process will definitely not be too smooth.

Yuan Chun was not confused by the status of Qianwang Zhongxing Pengyue. From this point of view, Jia Qing was very satisfied.At least, Yuan Chun can be more sober and cautious, which is a good thing for them who are royalists.

However, it is too late, Jia Qing said seriously: "Elder sister, don't worry, as long as sister takes care of His Royal Highness, the outside affairs are up to us."

Jia Qing has been at the forefront of the imperial court for many years, and his words are convincing.

Yuan Chun's eyes were filled with emotion, and he said, "I know, with you as my uncle around, everything will be safe."

After a pause, Yuan Chun suddenly said: "Second brother, in fact, I also think that Gan'er's first birthday celebration has caused too much excitement. After all, Gan'er is still so young, and he has already made it known to the world. He must fall heavily, we have exalted him too much, I am afraid it is not a good thing.

If it is possible, I would rather let him not be the heir apparent, I just want him to grow up safely..."

"Elder Sister's words are too impulsive, His Royal Highness Qian Wang is the heir of the country appointed by the late emperor, the son of destiny.

Assuming the mission of Great Chu Sheji, it has landed on him since the day he fell from his sister. No matter what, His Royal Highness Qianwang can only move forward, because there is no retreat behind. "

Jia Qing said in a deep voice, seeing the tears in Yuan Chun's eyes, he couldn't bear it, so he slowed down and said: "Sister, why should you feel distressed, His Royal Highness Qianwang is not alone on this journey, he has a wise and loving mother like my sister to teach me , and us courtiers as assistants. He will definitely become the Mingzhu of the Great Chu Empire."

"No, I don't feel bad, I'm happy for Gan'er..." Yuan Chunqiang wiped away his tears, and said: "It's rare for you to come in, and it happens that Gan'er should wake up at this time, let's go and see him. "

With that said, Yuan Chun stood up.

"it is good."

Jia Qing nodded and followed Yuan Chun to the apse.

……

Half an hour later, Jia Qing came out of Fengzao Palace and went to the yamen of the Imperial Army Commander.

"At the end of the day, see Fucheng King!"

"General Wei is exempt."

Jia Qing helped Wei Lize up, then looked towards the courtyard.Eighteen kinds of weapons were placed around the courtyard, and there were dozens of people kneeling in the middle, all half shirtless, which showed that they were all training before he came.

The Forbidden Army suffered a devastating blow after the rebellion a year ago, and after it was rebuilt, Wei Lize has been serving as the commander.

"That's right, General Wei is worthy of being the most trusted general of the late emperor, and his subordinates are all outstanding."

"My lord praises me so much, I am ashamed to be the last general. Compared with the lord's Beijing camp, they are still far behind. Please, my lord."

Jia Qing smiled and followed him into the house without saying much.Wei Li poured him a bowl of tea, Jia Qing took a look, the tea was very thick, and there were even two tea leaves floating in it...

Wei Li was a little embarrassed: "We are all vulgar people, and we don't know how to make tea. We usually drink like this. Please forgive me, my lord."

Jia Qing didn't say anything, picked up the tea bowl and drank it down in one gulp, even chewed the tasteless tea leaves, then smiled and said: "Not bad, good tea."

"My lord's generosity, the general admires it!"

Wei Li cupped his fists and said.

He knew that Jia Qing was a son of a great family who was born in the palace, and now he was even respected as a prince. He thought that Jia Qing would look down on the behavior of these rough people.

Jia Qing shook his head and said: "What kind of generosity is this? General Wei, don't forget that Xiao Wang has also led troops to fight, so the army should have the style of the army. General Wei leads the troops rigorously and sets an example. True generosity."

Wei Li, on the other hand, was not good at sycophancy, and he didn't take any further criticism, but said: "My lord, is he going to inspect the soldiers of the imperial army when he comes down this time? At the end of the day, call the brothers who are not on duty."

Jia Qing, as the Taibao and the auxiliary minister, has the authority to inspect the imperial army.

"No need." Jia Qing waved his hands, stood up, and said: "Just looking at the heroic appearance of General Wei's personal guards, you can know that General Wei has a good command of the army, so this king will not disturb the general's training."

Seeing that Jia Qing was about to leave, Wei Li hurriedly sent him off, and when he came to the door, he suddenly heard Jia Qing say: "General Wei is the late emperor's confidant, the late emperor handed over the power of palace confinement, I hope the general will not slack off.

In the future, earl, naturally it is not the end of the general. "

Wei Li was taken aback for a moment, then bowed and responded, "The general understands!"

Back then, in order to quell the rebellion, he was the one who guarded the gate of the palace and dragged Jia Qing to lead his troops to rescue him. Afterwards, he also rose to the top, not only directly promoted from general to commander of the imperial army, but also named earl.

For him, Emperor Zhengqing's kindness to the emperor was not insignificant, he knew what he should do, and also understood what Jia Qing meant.

Guard the gate of the palace and protect His Royal Highness Qianwang!

Jia Qing didn't say any more, and stepped out of the Forbidden Army Yamen.There is no need to speak clearly when dealing with sensible people.

After leaving the imperial city, he went to Princess Xingyue's mansion to have a look, and played two games with the little girl before he escaped.

Regarding the matter between him and Princess Xingyue, Emperor Zhengqing had already acquiesced when he was alive.After the one-year national mourning of Emperor Zhengqing, Yuanchun will be the master, following Daiyu's example, and marrying Princess Xingyue to him.

Jia Qing was the most honorable person in the dynasty, at present, apart from Grand Tutor Li Zhen, who can still overwhelm him, no one can match his power and status.He and Princess Xingyue are a matter of mutual consent, so no one is unhappy about this matter.Now the wedding date has also been set. On the third day of next month, together with Daiyu, we will marry and enter the palace.

……

"My lord, the concubine fainted in the front yard just now..."

He went back to the palace under the guard of his own soldiers, just entered the gate of Neiyi, saw a few maids in a panic, under Jia Qing's frowning and questioning, they told the truth.

Jia Qing was startled and hurried to Baochai Courtyard.

"My lord is back...!"

In Baochai's house, Youshi, Baoqin, Xing Xiuyan, Second Sister You, Third Sister You, Ping'er and others are all there.When Jia Qing came in, the first thing she saw was Baochai lying on the bed.

"Chaier, what's wrong with you?"

Baochai was awake at this time, Jia Qing was holding her hand tightly, and seeing Jia Qing's worried expression was beyond words, Baochai was a little embarrassed, and said: "I am fine, but I suddenly felt dizzy just now, it's not a big deal. It’s all because Ying’er made a big fuss, not to mention attracting all the sisters, but also making the master worry about it, it seems that the concubine is too frivolous.”

"Nonsense, your health is not good for such a big matter, Ying'er should be nervous."

Jia Qing blamed Baochai first, then turned around and asked, "The doctor has been here before, what did you say?"

You Shi said: "I've already gone to invite, and I think it's coming soon." She looked a little strange, just now Baochai said, "I have recruited all the sisters", but in this room, except for the maids and maids, she is not the only one. "sisters".

Just as he was talking, the imperial physician had arrived.

Baoqin and the others all avoided, and Youshi ordered the servant girl to put the curtain, but Jia Qing refused and let the imperial physician in.

The so-called Imperial Physician is somewhat different from the Imperial Physician.Imperial physicians mainly treat the emperor and concubines, while imperial physicians are more extensive. As long as they are enshrined in imperial hospitals, they are called imperial physicians. Most imperial physicians actually serve the noble clan.

It wasn't Doctor Zhang who came here today, he was a little nervous when he entered Prince Fucheng's mansion for the first time, and seeing that King Fucheng wouldn't let him use the curtain, he lowered his head after entering, not daring to look around.When he came to the princess's tent, he dared not stretch out his hand privately.

Jia Qingdao: "My concubine fainted inexplicably earlier, please give me a good diagnosis and treatment, sir. If it is cured, I will reward you with great courtesy."

"Respect the king's order."

The imperial physician raised his head slightly.Baochai stretched her arm out of the tent, Yinger folded a thin soft handkerchief on Baochai's hand...

After some "hearing and asking", the imperial physician suddenly got up, with a smile on his face, he congratulated Jia Qing and said, "Congratulations to the lord, the concubine is very happy, judging from the pulse, it has been more than two months..."

"what?!"

Not only Jia Qing, but also a commotion came from behind the screen.Jia Qing was even more overjoyed, and asked: "What is said by Mr. is true?"

"Although the little old man's medical skills are not good, the happy pulse that has been more than two months is still coming out. Because the princess has a double body and is suspected of being overworked, it will cause dizziness. After that, I only need to use ordinary medicine Conditioning, and more rest, you can recover."

Jia Qing was overjoyed, but suddenly worried, and asked again and again: "Is the fetus in the womb healthy?"

He secretly blamed himself for being careless, remembering that he had often nourished Baochai in the past two months, he couldn't help worrying about the fetus again.

The imperial physician seemed quite serious, and did not speak to him, but took his pulse carefully, and boldly glanced at Baochai's face, and then said: "The princess is in good health, her qi and blood are stable, judging from the pulse condition , The concubine's birth is very healthy. If you take good care of it in the future, the palace will definitely be happy to have a newborn. I would like to congratulate the lord and the concubine in advance."
