After Jia Mu's birthday banquet, Jia Lian and his family packed up and took Tanchun and Xichun with them. At Ling O'clock, they visited the ancestral hall and Jia Mu. They drove a carriage and horse with a group of bodyguards on the road. Jia She personally sent him to Shiliting.
After saying a few words, he was about to go back. Jia Lian grabbed his reins and whispered: "Master, you have to pretend to be more decent." Jia She had no choice but to give a few more false instructions, shaking his neck and waiting for them to go away.
That’s all.
On the third day after Jia Lian left, the saint received a note from Jia She, asking him to go to Taiwan and do whatever he wanted.
The sage was greatly surprised and asked Dai Quan, "Did Jia She also offend the sixth man?"
How did Dai Quan know? He said, "Why don't you ask Master Xiao Feng to ask."
As expected, the saint announced that Feng Ziying had entered the palace. Feng Ziying burst out laughing after hearing this and said: "Jia Cong has been sighing for a long time. Don't look at the arrogance he puts on at home every day. Once his nephew walks away, he will be able to do it with his back."
Got 'missing Sun's disease'."
The sage scolded: "Nonsense!" He put Jia She's poem aside and ignored it.
Unexpectedly, Jia She was so stubborn that he wrote a memorial every day! At first, he was just talking nonsense, and then gradually he became more literary. Later, he even thought about Sun Chengji, and smelled of the cuckoo's cries of blood. The saint looked at it quite a bit.
interesting.
Jia She had never been very patient. Seeing that there was no movement after more than ten days, he went to Prince Xian's Mansion. Situ Pan also thought it was funny and coaxed him for a while before sending him away. Unexpectedly, he went to see the Fourth Prince the next day.
, the second prince came again. In the past few days, everyone except the sixth prince, who forced his son to leave the capital, had visited.
The saint was angry and cursed: "Does he still want to force me?" He ordered someone to send Lin Hai to persuade him.
Lin Hai smiled bitterly and said: "I'm afraid it won't work. I will go crazy when I see you. I will call a child cute when I see a child on the street. Saint, when a person is crazy, he will ignore everything and the words of others will fall on deaf ears. It is better to send him wherever he wants.
He could do something in the south, such as providing labor for the prince of Nan'an and letting him meet his grandson. His grandson has been dazzling in front of his eyes every day since he was born. Suddenly he can't see him, and he can't bear it for a moment.
. Just meet him once and understand how he misses his grandson. Or he could just bring his grandson back to the capital."
The saint immediately thought of Huo Sheng who was still fighting in the south.
In the past few years since Huo Xuan left, some people have caused trouble in various properties of Nan'an Palace. I thought that Huo Sheng would cause some trouble because he was young and energetic, but I didn't expect that he would not care about these things at all. According to the temperament of Nan'an Princess, she should be aware of it.
Even when she came out to make trouble, she did not make any move. Later, Situ Pan and others guessed that she had already lost power in the palace and could not speak. Princess Nan'an was very tolerant, and she used the east wind sent back to Jia Yuanchun to clear out all the women in Huo Xuan's backyard.
By the way, many idle people in the house were cleaned up. Later, when Liu Dengxi wanted to plant spies among them, it was very difficult. He could only buy a few useless young men and women, but he couldn't find out anything important. But their family didn't know either.
It seems that there is no shortage of money for the wealth that was accumulated in the early years. I expected them to hire more high-paid personal guards, but I heard from the young man inside that they added more.
Later, the saint learned that the second prince had helped him a little, and he became more and more satisfied with the second prince: If he could not subdue the group in the south, it would be good to subdue their master. Unlike the eldest son, who only plundered people's fat and anointed people, and assassinated court officials at will.
This time, Huo Sheng was ordered to fight in the south. On the one hand, the soldiers under his grandfather were unable to control others, and on the other hand, he also thought that it would be difficult for Huo Sheng, a little boy, to go back to the battlefield and win. Besides, he had been in the capital in recent years.
, he has no comradeship with his grandfather's people in the south. He just waits for him to lose and orders Wang Ziteng to take over the battle. Unexpectedly, two or three times of good news have been sent back. However, the good news is somewhat unclear, the saint
I have some doubts in my heart, whether someone is lying about the military situation.
He thought for a while, it would be difficult for ordinary people to be sent there to investigate. How old is Huo Sheng? If there is any lie about the military situation, it must be the work of his grandfather's people in the south. Unless it is unexpected... The saint walked around the Daming Palace several times and ordered people
Report to Lin Hai.
Two days later, Lin Hai called Jia Cong over. With an unspeakable expression on his face, he took something out of his arms and gave it to him.
Jia Cong opened it and saw that it was an imperial edict!
He has known for a long time that he is ridiculously smart. Fortunately, he has always been quite reckless and straightforward, attaches great importance to love and justice, and is quite knowledgeable about the affairs of the Tian family. Therefore, all the disciples are wooing him, and they live a happy life.
I just never thought that the saint would fall in love so quickly. I was stunned and looked at Lin Hai: "Uncle, is this true or false?"
Lin Hai glanced at him angrily: "Really."
Jia Cong pointed at that thing and asked with wide eyes: "Really?! The saint ordered me and brother Yao'er to find out whether Huo Sheng lied about military information?"
Lin Haidao: "He will order you to be the supervisor. You are a fool and not familiar with military affairs. This supervisor is just a decoration. No one will guard against him. Besides, your grandfather also had a close relationship with Huo Sheng's grandfather many years ago.
People from the Guangdong and Guangxi naval forces also think that he is more pleasing to the eye than others. Also, I have heard about your inference that Prince Nan'an was poisoned a few years ago. I didn't mention it because I was afraid that you would be arrogant."
Jia Cong couldn't help but cover his face: "What am I so proud of... I just got lucky." That time he was simply trying to counter-deceive after knowing the truth, and it was pure cheating.
"The sage thought that you knew everything, and you were just a child; my son is calm and cautious. You two are better than your father."
…………
Jia Cong was confused.
Holy man, Huo Sheng and I are in the same group...
Isn’t this just leaving the Pantaoyuan to Sun Houhou’s care? The young master is actually so close to the Monkey King...
For a long time, Jia Cong said feebly: "What if we don't find anything?"
Lin Hai smiled and said: "It's just that we haven't found out. How young are you, you can't play with the ordinary tightness of adults."
Jia Cong nodded and said, "Then we are leaving soon."
Lin Hai turned around sadly, sighing and speechless.
Jia Cong stepped forward and pulled his arm: "Uncle, it's only been three years since you reunited with Sister Lin and her daughter... Why don't you find an excuse to resign. The current situation is so chaotic, and the old saint doesn't have long to count.
Well, princes and princes, if you don’t obey me or I don’t obey, you are like a black-eyed chicken, in case of a fight, you have no eyesight."
Lin Hai sighed: "I eat the king's salary and share the king's worries."
Jia Cong frowned and said, "You are too dull, I'm really worried about you."
Lin Hai smiled and stroked his head: "I am not a pedantic person. In fact, according to my reputation and official position, I am in Lingnan with you, and there is Wang Ziteng in Lingnan. No one dares to touch me at will, even if the situation in the court changes."
Jia Cong curled his lips, then wanted to give some advice, then waved his hand and said: "That's all, instead of telling you, it's better to tell someone trustworthy."
Lin Hai was stunned: "Who is this reliable person?"
Jia Cong hummed, "I won't tell you."
Lin Hai glared at him.
In order to give him face, Jia Cong patiently put away the imperial edict. Seeing the old man's satisfied expression, he was also quite satisfied.
A few days later, the saint looked annoyed and disgusted and issued an order at the court, ordering Jia She to go south to supervise the army for Huo Sheng. Jia She happily packed up his things and left, wishing he could hold his eldest grandson in his arms right now. Jia Huan also wanted to follow.
Yes, because I really can’t worry about Aunt Zhao, there are some things in Beijing that need someone to deal with, so that’s all.
Seven or eight days after Jia She left, Lin Daiyu went to Rongguo Mansion to visit Jia Mu, and spent half a day talking with the old lady. Jia Mu thought that she would one day grace the world with her mother, and she wished she could hold her in her arms and hold her tightly.
She didn't let go of her hand for a moment until the two of them finished dinner and Daiyu wanted to go out for a walk before returning to the house. Naturally, Jia Mu was happy for her to hang around Rongguo Mansion more.
After a long time, people from the Lin family came to ask why the girl hadn't come back yet. Jia Mu sent people to look for her everywhere, but she couldn't find her. She suddenly panicked. Jia Zheng hurried over and called Jia Huan again.
I sent some people to look for him carefully.
Until the end, I asked an old woman who was cleaning the yard of Lixiangyuan. She said: "Miss Lin ordered me to open the door of Lixiangyuan facing Ningrong Street, get out and get on a carriage and leave."
Jia's mother Jia Zheng was shocked! She hurriedly ran to Lixiangyuan. Because Jia Cong and his brothers had gone with Jia She, Lixiangyuan was now empty. But where was Lin Daiyu's shadow? Jiamu almost fell to the ground without a trace.
Jia's mother became anxious and opened her mouth to curse: "You guys must have instigated this..." She raised her hand to give Jia Huan a slap in the face.
Jia Huan easily stretched out his hand and grabbed his wrist: "Ancestor, don't be anxious, this matter is too big. Go tell Uncle Lin as soon as possible."
Jia Zheng stamped his feet and said, "How dare you tell him to go!"
Jia Huan said: "The most important thing now is to find Sister Lin. He is the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and we are not as capable as him."
Jia Zheng had no idea. Jia Mu was so anxious that everyone was confused, so Jia Huan ordered: "Go and invite Uncle Lin quickly."
After receiving the letter, Lin Hai pretended to be angry and cursed a few polite words without any curse words. He turned around and walked out of the house, breathing a long sigh of relief. After a while, he took a sign from Daiyu's house.
, came out and said to the servants of the Jia family: "I won't go to Rongguo Mansion anymore. Yu'er left on her own and has nothing to do with her mother-in-law. I'll look elsewhere first." The servant hurried back to Rongguo Mansion to deliver the letter.
Jia's mother Jia Zheng felt a little relieved and couldn't help but wonder where Daiyu had gone.
Jia Huan hurriedly waved his hands: "Ancestor, Master! We don't know anything about this matter! Don't spread a single word of information, just wait for Uncle Lin's words. No matter whether he is found or not, he asked our house to
Let’s just say what Li said. He didn’t speak, so we must not talk nonsense.”
Jia Zheng nodded repeatedly: "You are right! Miss Lin's reputation is important, and this matter must be covered up without even a crack."
Jia Mu jumped up and said, "That's right! Reputation! Yu'er's reputation! If her reputation is flawed, her position as Crown Princess will be gone!" She then covered her face and cried, "What a sin, I usually only think of her as a sensible person...
…”
The Rongguo Mansion was in a panic, trying to hold on to what was going to happen tonight, and anyone who mentioned it would be beaten to death.
Lin Hai then hurried to Prince Xian's Mansion. Seeing his frightened expression, Situ Pan stood up and asked, "What happened?"
Lin Hai was so anxious that he couldn't speak. He took out the sign from his sleeve and handed it to Situ Pan.
I saw the very beautiful handwriting on it said: My daughter is unfilial, my fourth sister is right and she doesn't want to enter the palace. She has a very safe place to go, don't think about it.
Situ Pan was shocked: "Your love?"
Lin Hai nodded.
Situ Pan scolded: "Nonsense!" The two were silent for a long time. Situ Pan said, "Don't be anxious. When did she leave?"
Lin Hai smiled bitterly and said, "After dinner."
Situ Pan immediately said: "The city gate of Huizi is closed, only inside the city." Then he ordered people to search all night. Lin Hai only acted in a hurry and did not care about anything.
On the other end, Lin Daiyu walked out of Lixiangyuan and got into the car calmly. The driver was Jarvis, who had already followed Jia She and left the capital for several days. There was also Wu Xiaoxi, dressed in men's clothing, sitting in the car. Yaoer drove away as if nothing had happened.
, walked through half of the capital to the mansion in the south of the city. Jia Cong, who was also supposed to leave with Jia She, was guarding the door. When the carriage came, he opened the door immediately, and when the carriage came in, he hurriedly closed the door. Waiting for Lin and Wu
After getting out of the car, the four of them hurried towards the tunnel.
After selling all the weapons, the lamp oil in the tunnel returned. The four of them walked silently, with only the sound of their own heartbeats in their ears, until they came out of the tunnel of the "base" warehouse on the other side of the Jia Cong moat.
I saw Liu Feng sitting on a sundry box, with a large candlestick in front of him, illuminating the warehouse very brightly, and holding a book in his hand. Hearing the noise, he raised his head and said calmly: "Here?"
Jia Cong took a breath: "Here he is. He didn't dare to say a word the whole way. He was so suffocating to death."
Liu Feng said: "Why don't you say anything? No one in the tunnel heard you."
Jia Cong curled his lips and said, "I don't know, I'm probably nervous." Then he turned to look at the others. Sure enough, they all looked relieved and couldn't help but laugh.
Liu Feng said: "Mr. Lin, hurry up and change your clothes. We are on our way."
Lin Daiyu and Wu Xiaoxi hurried to the house to change Daiyu into thick men's clothes, and then packed the clothes she changed into into a bag and carried them on their backs.
Daiyu said sadly: "If I had known that I would run away in a hurry today, I would have gone to learn to ride a horse."
Xiaoxi smiled and said, "Are you worried that you won't have the chance to learn horse riding when you get to Lingnan?"
Jia Cong smashed the wall outside and urged: "Sisters, you can learn to ride a horse halfway! Hurry up, stop chatting, we are running away!"
The two girls hurriedly put on their clothes and came out. A fast horse was already prepared outside. Lin Daiyu couldn't ride, so Xiaoxi had to take her with her. Several people fumbled around for a long time before helping her onto the horse.
It was September 16th, and the full moon was beautiful and watery. The moonlight was like frost in the sky. Daiyu couldn't help but sigh: "Today's people don't see the ancient moon, but today's moon once shined on the ancients."
Jia Cong covered his mouth and said, "Teeth are sore." Several people stared at him with big white eyes.
After packing up, the four horses galloped into the night like lightning.
Several people hurriedly hurried all night until daybreak and bought some dry food from the passing villages to satisfy their hunger. Lin Daiyu had never run a fast horse in her life, and she almost fell apart, but she didn't say a word, and no one else paid special attention to her. They
I didn't want to rest, so I ran for half a day. In the afternoon, I put on my clothes and took a nap in the field. Because of my uneasy mind, I couldn't sleep well. Yao'er never closed his eyes and kept watch for everyone.
That night they finally found a small inn to rest. Because Lin Hai had already prepared a guide for Daiyu, she was wearing men's clothes, her face was covered with dust, and the sky was dark, so they stayed safely. But this
She still had a restless sleep that night, and everyone woke up when the rooster crowed the next day, taking advantage of the dark sky to go out early. Daiyu couldn't hold back, and said, "The rooster crows in Maodian, the moon is in the moon, and the frost in Banqiao is everywhere." Nothing happened this time.
People talk to her.
After another whole day of running around, until dusk, there was a small shop at the foot of a mountain ahead. Four horses ran past. Jia Cong jumped off the horse and shouted loudly: "Mrs. Boss! We have a visitor!"
I saw a smiling village girl coming out of the room, with a graceful and slender figure and pretty eyebrows. She said with a smile: "Come, come, ladies and gentlemen, do you want to stay in a hotel or stay in a hotel?"
Jia Cong stretched out: "Stay in a hotel, stay in a hotel! But the baby is exhausted. He needs to rest for a few more days to recover."
Lin Daiyu was still behind the creek horse at this moment. She looked at the proprietress intently and was shocked: "Sister-in-law Liu Er!"
Before he finished speaking, a seven or eight-year-old girl dressed as a farm girl ran out and shouted: "Third uncle, third uncle, you are here! I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
Jia Cong stepped forward, picked her up and spun her around: "Oh, my little princess~~"
Daiyu became more and more surprised and tugged on Wu Xiaoxi's clothes behind her back: "Isn't that Fu'er?"
Xiaoxi turned over and dismounted and said with a smile: "It's Fu'er. General Jia, the Second Major General's family and the two girls Tanchun Xichun are all on the mountain."
