Comprehensive Qiong Yao's Crimson Love

Chapter 68: Going Down to Jiangnan

After finishing the matter of returning to the Ministry, Qianlong finally waved his hand and prepared to tour the south.The Empress Dowager found out about this southern tour, and her old man also wanted to wander around the south of the Yangtze River very much. Qianlong couldn't hold her back, so he agreed.The queen stayed in the palace to manage the affairs of the harem and did not follow.In addition, on the side of the prince and princess, the eighth elder brother of Prince Yi, the twelfth elder brother of Prince Yi, the fifteenth elder brother, and ten Gege were brought to the southern tour. In addition, Mingzhu Gege and Wu Fujin also brought along—— Although they were punished by the emperor because of Hanxiang before, Qianlong knew very well how out of tune these two people were, and he still took it with him to rest assured; Eleventh brother, the king of Chengjun, stayed in Beijing to supervise the country, and the other princes The elder brother—or the successor—has also given the title of "assistant".Among the courtiers, Qianlong brought Ji Xiaolan, Fu Heng, E Min, and imperial physicians Zhao Jia and Hu.

The group first arrived in Jinan, Shandong. Ziwei was not in a good mood. Although she was accompanied by Little Swallow, she might be thinking of Xia Yuhe, her big eyes were always filled with tears.

"Ama, why don't you go and have a look at Xia Yuhe's tomb!" Qi Yao used to ride a horse outside - this time he came out to ride a previously raised Tayunzhao, it's rare to get in the carriage to play chess with Qianlong at the moment.

"Well, I had this plan in the first place." Qianlong nodded and dropped his hand.In fact, his destination is Suzhou and Hangzhou, but he can also go to Jinan by taking a detour from the capital to the south of the Yangtze River.Although he had no feelings for Xia Yuhe, at any rate, this woman gave birth to a daughter for him and died because of him, so he still felt a little guilty in his heart.

During this trip, Qianlong is still the master, the queen mother is of course the old lady, Yongxuan, Qiyao, and the fifteenth elder brother Yongyan are the young masters, Shi Gege is the young lady, Ziwei and Xiaoyanzi are still maids, and Ji Xiaolan is still the accountant Sir, E Min and Fu Heng are nurses, and the two imperial physicians... Well, the two imperial physicians are doing odd jobs.

"Is Ama going to stay in Jinan for a while?" Qi Yao glanced at the chessboard, picked up a sunspot and dropped it on the board in a leisurely and casual manner.The slender fingers like white jade cling to the chess piece made of black jade. Compared with the two, it is really indescribably beautiful.

"No, just take a look and go." Qianlong was just a little guilty. Perhaps for Xia Yuhe, Qianlong was the most important touch of color in her life; but for Qianlong, Xia Yuhe was just an ordinary little character who couldn't be more ordinary If it weren't for the fact that Xia Ziwei went to Beijing to recognize her father, plus the true and false scenes with Xiao Yanzi and the fifth elder brother, Qianlong might not remember her at all.

"Alright." Qi Yao smiled slightly, "After leaving Jinan, how will Ama decide to go? After all, Mama is getting old, it's better to walk slowly by water."

"Well, what Twelve said makes sense." Qianlong didn't take it seriously either, just casually playing chess with Qi Yao, "Er Niang took Shiwu and Minmin to the waterway, you and Yongxuan followed me."

"Okay." Qi Yao nodded, the joy in his eyes became even more intense.

Afterwards, when everyone arrived at Xia Yuhe's cemetery, Qi Yao didn't get off the carriage—it was said that he was unwell, but in fact Qi Yao didn't intend to worship Xia Yuhe, after all, this woman had nothing to do with him; Yong Xuan didn't go either, this The guy was even more straightforward, and got off the horse directly into the carriage, saying that after riding for a long time, Prince Yi's delicate inner thigh skin was worn out, and he needed to rest and recuperate in the carriage.

To put it bluntly, I just don't want to—or rather, disdain—to pay homage to Xia Yuhe, who was unmarried and lost her virginity.

"The twelfth brother is very interested." When Yongxuan got into the car, Qi Yao happened to be leaning on the cushion, eating preserved fruit while reading the storybook, looking very leisurely.

"Mynah is here." Qi Yao put down the book in his hand, and pushed the small plate of preserved fruit towards Yongxuan, "Why don't you try it? These are figs that were tributed back to the Ministry, and they are considered rare." Qi Yao really likes to eat dried figs, and the preserved figs from Xinjiang are so sweet that they are a little cloying, but Qi Yao inexplicably likes this feeling.

Yongxuan took one and put it in his mouth: "Well, the taste is not bad, a bit sweet."

Qi Yao smiled: "Of course these figs are sweet and delicious." Seeing that Yongxuan didn't seem to like dried figs that much, Qi Yao moved the plate to his place again, and said again: "After leaving Jinan, we have to share There are two ways to walk by water and land, if the starling hurts the inner thigh, how about walking by water with Mama?" This is a blatant joke.

"When I'm about to go on the road, my legs will naturally heal." Yongxuan was not annoyed, and smiled, "Speaking of which, if the twelfth brother has been riding in the carriage with Ama, why don't you lend me your horse that rides on the cloud?" Go on a ride?" Well, Yongxuan is also a master who does not want to suffer.

"If Ama can let me take the carriage all the time, it's fine to lend you a ride." Qi Yao said with a smile, "Speaking of which, the fifteenth brother and tenth younger sister followed Mama, but Mingzhu's sister and fifth sister-in-law followed. Amma's."

"Where did the 'Sister Mingzhu' and 'Sister Wu' come from, they are just two girls." Yongxuan corrected meaningfully, "Why, Twelve is reluctant to part with the fifteenth younger brother and tenth younger sister, but he doesn't care about Ziwei and Little Swallow?"

"It doesn't matter if you like it or not, or if you are rare or not!" Qi Yao chatted with Yong Xuan without saying a word, "These two people have always been troublesome, even though Fifth Brother and Fu Erkang are not here now, but After all, I still have lingering fears." Without Yongqi and Fu Erkang, the attack power of Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei has dropped, but in the final analysis, the most troublesome of these four people are the two women, Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei—— Especially the little swallow.

"Well, that's true." Yong Xuan deeply agreed.

Not long after, Qianlong and his party who went to Xia Yuhe's tomb to pay homage came back. Qianlong drove Yongxuan out of the carriage, leaving Qi Yao alone in the carriage. After repeatedly gesturing to "Tread the cloud", Qi Yao also nodded and lent it to him.

The soldiers were divided into two groups, the Empress Dowager's pedestrians—the ones who traveled by water—had separated from those who traveled by land like Qianlong, and Qianlong pulled Qi Yao in the carriage to gossip, when he heard faint singing from behind——

The mountains are also far away, and the water is also far away

The mountains and rivers are far away

Looking forward to the past night and looking forward to the present

Looking forward, looking forward, the soul will disappear

Dreams are also insignificant, people are also insignificant

Tian Ruo Qing Tian Yi Lao

Can't sing

out of tune

How much do you worry about the wind and rain

How much to worry about

......

It was Ziwei who was singing, and it was the song "Lands and Rivers" written by Xia Yuhe.In all fairness, Xia Ziwei played the piano and sang well, but this behavior did not look like a lady, let alone a golden branch and jade leaf.Qi Yao watched coldly, but Qianlong didn't look very happy.

As I said before, Qianlong's southern tour was mainly due to some minor problems in Jiangnan. Some things cannot be explained in the booklet alone, so Qianlong could only go to Jiangnan to have a look.Therefore, the batch of frames that went overland in the days to come could be described as going southward at full speed.

However, Qianlong did not go directly to Suzhou and Hangzhou—after all, he was still a little worried that he might startle the snake. He took his two sons and two "daughters" and went directly to the Chen family in Haining.

If we say that the Chen family in Haining has a lot of background, Old Chen Ge was a pure minister and a powerful minister in Yongzheng. Although he is retired now, his connections and reputation are still there. is very prestigious.

It's a pity that there is not a single male in the direct branch of the Chen family. Mrs. Chen gave birth to four daughters named Zhiqin, Zhiqi, Zhishu, and Zhihua. Chess, calligraphy and painting can be said to be "a family with a hundred girls." Now, there is only 16-year-old Miss Chen Si who is still waiting in her boudoir.

When Qianlong and his party arrived in Haining, they didn't wait for the Empress Dowager and her party who were traveling by water, and went to Chen's house.Although the concierge of Chen's family didn't recognize Qianlong, Fu Heng, E Min, Ji Xiaolan and others, they had winks!Among the people who have come to visit the Chen family over the years, they have never seen such an imposing person!Therefore, the concierge asked Fu Heng who had dismounted to negotiate very cautiously: "My lord, may I ask who you are?"

"Give this sign to your master." Fu Heng took out a token that looked like gold but not gold, iron but not iron from his pocket, and handed it to the concierge. "Let's say, it's an ancient person from the capital who came to visit."

Good fellow, the word "capital" and a token have already made the concierge completely understand - the master who came here is probably a nobleman in the capital, maybe he is a contact left by the old master during his time!The concierge respectfully took the sign, said "wait a moment", and quickly ran in to find Mr. Chen.

"Master Fucha is very imposing." Yongxuan sat on the horse, looked down at Fu Heng who was standing at the gate of the Chen Mansion, and said with a smile, "Twelve brothers, look, the gatekeeper is not a man of Fu Heng. Mr. Cha's aura is frightening!"

Qi Yao also got off the horse in the carriage when he arrived in Haining. He stretched out his hand to stroke Ta Yunxiao's mane, calmed down the slightly irritable horse, and casually continued Yongxuan's words: "I'm afraid this is Master Fucha. It's the first time in my life to negotiate with the head of the door, and it's also rare."

"That's right." Yong Xuan squinted at Fu Heng who was at the door, and couldn't help laughing.

Qianlong was in the car watching his two sons talking and laughing happily outside the car, feeling a little unhappy.It wasn't because Twelve was joking with Lao Ba, but because he, as the emperor, could only stay in the car and not ride a horse, he felt slightly blocked-if he also rode a horse, he would definitely dominate Twelve , how can it be Lao Ba's turn!

Qianlong touched his chin, and decided to let Lao Ba go to Suzhou and Hangzhou to be a pioneer. First, he would secretly explore, and he would take Twelve to stay at Chen's house for a few more days and cover for him!

Qianlong was thinking very well at the moment, but he didn't guess that the Chen family also had some worrying things waiting for him!

The author has something to say: In the future, I will write a chapter and send it to the manuscript box. The setting is one chapter a day (as long as there is stock), and then publish it at 09:30 in the morning. Will this be more convenient, everyone? Let's take a look at eleven o'clock, if you don't have it, don't worry about it (*/w*)
