The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 293

Lichun and Lixia finally came back.

"You two dead hoofs, where have you been these few days? Once you go out, you disappear?"

"Your Highness, are we going to Tianjin Wei?"

"What are you doing there?"

"Your Highness, didn't you ask us to go?"

"When did I tell you to go there, you... ah, you mean that Xue Baochai arrived in Tianjin Wei? Didn't she go to Jinling?"

"The two of us followed her all the way to Tianjinwei, and saw her board the boat."

"Where is the ship going?"

"Niuzhuang."

"Niuzhuang? The last time Chief Min and the others went to Bukui, didn't they land in Niuzhuang? Oh, no, no, this Xue Baochai is going to Bukui. She probably went to see Chief Min. I understand, she She eloped, she escaped marriage."

"Oh my God, you are so shameless, Xue Baochai, how can you be so shameless? You are also a lady of the family, how can you be so shameless? You still need that Chief Min, ah, no, Jia Laosi, they must have made an appointment in advance, this pair Dogs and men, how can you be so shameless?"

Chang An started to turn around in the room, she didn't know why she was so angry, she just felt like she was being cheated, something was taken away.

Yes, it was snatched away by someone. This Xue Baochai went to Bu Kui secretly, and she wanted to snatch Chief Min away.

How can you be a human being? How can you rob Chief Min from me? Even if you want to rob me, you should tell me in advance, and you can grab it after I agree.

When Princess Chang'an said this, Lichun and Lixia also understood.They also wondered why Baochai came to Tianjin Wei.

It is said that if you want to go to Jinling, you should take the Grand Canal from Tongzhou, and you don't need to go to Tianjinwei.

However, later I thought that I could go to Jinling by sea boat from Tianjinwei, maybe it is not necessarily the case for other people to take sea boat.Even though they found out that the boat was going to Niuzhuang, they never expected that Miss Xue would go to Bukui.

But what does Miss Xue have to do with His Highness when she goes to Bukui?The words are so ugly.

God, His Highness doesn't like Chief Min, does he?Is this jealous?how is this possible?Although I always talk about Chief Min, but most of them are scolding Chief Min?

"Li Xia, go and call Li Chengbin for me."

After a while, Li Chengbin came.

"Li Chengbin, you followed them that day and said that you packed a few big boxes in Chongwenmen, filled with cotton-padded clothes and quilts. Is that so?"

"Yes, Your Highness, I'm still surprised. They said they would go to Jinling for a few months and then come back. What are you preparing these things for? Maybe it's a gift for someone?"

"They're going to Pukui."

So Chang'an told about Baochai's boarding from Tianjinwei.

"That's right, Nabukui is a place of bitter cold in the extreme north, and those things are just in use when we go there."

Just go if they go, why are you in a hurry?

"Go, bring me Zhang Decai."

Bring it?What does it mean?Can't you call me?If you have to bring it, is this going to turn your face?
"Your Highness, do you really want to bring it?"

"Li Chengbin, isn't it clear what I said?"

"Yes, I'll fetch him."

Zhang Decai was escorted in by Li Chengbin, Lichun and others.

"Li An, if you have something to say, can't you just say it? Why are you arresting me? This is Ye Duju, not a place for you to run wild."

"Hmph, Zhang Decai, you are still acting with me, saying, where did your people send Miss Xue?"

"Go to Pu Kui? What's the matter, can't you?"

Seeing that Zhang Decai readily admitted it, Chang An was stunned.There was nothing to say for a while.

"A lady from a great family, who doesn't know the place where she lives, what is she going to do in Bukui?"

"To do business, Chief Min and Captain Jia are both her cousins, and there are so many children from Jia's family there. Isn't it the right place for them to visit relatives, where are they unfamiliar?"

"Then why are you sneaking around?"

"Since when have you been sneaking around, come and go, how can you not be generous?"

"Then why are you hiding it from me?"

"Who's hiding it from you? Why didn't you enter the gate and exit the gate? Besides, this is a matter of our army regiment, so I don't need to tell you. You take advantage of our place to train soldiers, and take this place as your own home Now, wait for Chief Min to come back and see if I don't sue you in front of him."

"Zhang Decai, you are so brave, you dare to sue, okay, you sue. If you don't look for this goddamn old man Jia, I will settle accounts with him. Hmph, return your home here? Do you believe it? Don't you believe that I copied your house?"

"There must be a reason for the emperor to confiscate the house. If you say so, you can just copy it? Which king's law have we violated? Li An, I see that you were not bad before, but why are you so unreasonable now? Forget it this time." , next time if you do this again, I will drive you out."

After Zhang Decai finished speaking, he went out in a swaggering manner regardless of how the few people reacted.

"Look, he actually..."

"Your Highness, calm down. He doesn't know His Highness's identity. If he knew, he wouldn't dare to talk like that. Don't be as knowledgeable as him. Think long-term, long-term."

Li Chengbin and Lichun talked and talked, and finally persuaded Chang'an.

"You can give me an idea."

Give you an idea?What's your idea?Who knows what you're going to do?
"Forget it, there must be nothing you can do. Go, go back to the palace, and find the father. These two men and women, I insist..."

What do you want?Could it be that Chief Min's head is about to be beheaded again?You've said it ten thousand times, and I haven't seen you chop off his head.

After returning to the palace, he found out that his father was in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, so Chang An went straight there.

"Hey, my little Chang'an is back, why do you think of coming back to see me today? Are you out of money again?"

"Father, I haven't spent money recklessly for a long time. If I mention this to me again, I will never come back to see you again."

"Okay, okay, I won't mention it. Now that Chang'an knows to share my worries, and Chang'an doesn't spend money randomly, I just thought, should I ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to hold an annual meeting this year, and set up an award for the best prodigal? It's also good to be vigilant Be alert to these royal children."

In the past, if this award was judged, it would most likely belong to Chang'an.Now that Chang'an has learned well, I am not afraid anymore.

"Father, this best prodigal award is a trick created by Jia Lao Si. You should not learn from him."

"Why is it a ghost hall? Didn't you recommend it to me? I think this idea is good."

"One moment and another, this Jia Laosi is getting worse and worse."

Why did this painting style change again?In the past, it was a mouthful of officials.How did the Jia family offend her?Jia Minyuan is in Bukui, isn't it?

"Tell me, why is he not up to date?"

"Father, the ancients have said: The Huns are not destroyed, why is home, should a good man have his ambitions everywhere, and shouldn't be in love with his children all day long?"

"Yes."

"That fourth Jia, who arrived in Bukui, was restless and self-disciplined, tried his best to govern, but lingered in his children's affair all day long. Can such a person benefit one side?"

"How do you know that he hangs around his children's affair all day long?"

"Of course I know, he also has my spies there."

Hey, little boy, I know how much time I need.

"What do you want me to do? Have Jia Ming dismissed?"

"That's not necessary. After all, Jia Lao Si is still a talent. If he is dismissed, no one wants to go to Bukuina. I just think that he should use his energy to work now. He is only 16 years old. , within three to five years, there should be no talk of marriage. Only in this way can we make contributions and live up to the expectations of our father."

my expectations?I didn't expect him to make great achievements. If he can keep Bu Kui's stall well, I will be satisfied.

"It's a simple matter. I'll send someone to inform him and tell him not to talk about marriage until he's 20 years old. Is that okay?"

"That's the best. Has your father eaten your meal? Please pass on the meal. I'm hungry."

"Okay, pass on the meal, pass on the meal."

Chang An ate here and left happily.Soon, Li Chengbin was passed in.

"Li Chengbin, tell me, what's going on?"

So, Li Chengbin told what happened.

"That's really all there is?"

"I dare not lie to the emperor, Jia Min has never been in contact with His Highness alone."

"Okay, you go down and ask someone to send Jiang Mingqian from the Ministry of Punishment."

According to the military law of the Dade Dynasty, soldiers are not allowed to bring their family members when they go out to fight.

However, that mainly refers to when the regular army is officially fighting.Jia Min leads the Fubing Regiment. Although it is included in the army ranks, the military pay and equipment are all implemented according to the standards of the guards. They are also stationed in Bukui, which is different from the regular army. .

When the guards were stationed, they could bring their family members with them, so the rule that they were not allowed to bring their family members when they went out for an expedition did not apply to Jia Min.

What's more, even if Baochai went, it was only for visiting relatives, and the two had no marriage contract, so they could not be regarded as family records.

It is precisely because of this that Jia Min took Miaoyu, Ping'er and Qingwen with her before.

Here comes Jiang Ming, Jiang Mingqian is Jiang Shilang from the Ministry of Punishment.

"My minister Jiang Mingqian kowtowed to the emperor, long live my emperor."

"Get up, Jiang Mingqian, you go to Bukui. I think Jia Min tried out the food reform for exiles there, reducing the death rate and escape rate of exiled persons. I think it is a good thing."

"Go and see how he does it, how he does it, and if there are any bad things, give him pointers. If he succeeds there, it will be a reference for other places in the future."

"The minister leads the order."

"One more thing, you tell Jia Min that young people should aim everywhere, don't hang around their children's affairs, and tell him not to talk about marriage until he is 20 years old."

When Jiang Shilang went out, Emperor Yuanheng sighed softly.

My little Chang'an has grown up.

Fortunately, you, the child of the Jia family, have no evil intentions, otherwise, hum!

I don't beat you, I don't scold you, I scare you to death!
