The Laughing Usa of the Red Chamber

Chen Yanqing covered her lower abdomen with the thin quilt kicked by Zhao Yanran until she bent her legs, and then asked doubtfully, "Is Wang Ziteng very powerful?"

He didn't know anything about the officialdom in the back house, and these gossips were also shared by a few soldiers. He thought Zhao Yanran would like to hear it, so he wrote it down.

He had never met Wang Ziteng before, and hearing Zhao Yanran mention him in such awe, he couldn't help but ask this question.

Zhao Yanran snorted and said: "The official is a big one, I heard people say that sooner or later he will be named prime minister."

Chen Yanqing held her hand and said very seriously: "If you can't survive in the capital, I will take you back to the border city, where there is no one older than me."

Zhao Yanran asked doubtfully, "Aren't you a general?"

Chen Yanqing was stunned, and hesitated: "Maybe the officials in the border town are not high? Yanyu said that I can just walk sideways."

Zhao Yanran asked suspiciously, "Really?"

Chen Yanqing nodded.

Zhao Yanran heard the clouds and mist, so she simply stopped thinking about it, buried her head in Chen Yanqing's neck, and said, "Yulin...Tanchun is here, where can I go..."

Chen Yanqing pursed her lips and remained silent.

Just as Zhao Yanran was about to say something, she suddenly moved her nose and said, "What kind of wine are you drinking? It smells weird and makes people feel sick."

Chen Yanqing was taken aback, put on a pair of trousers and was about to get out of bed, Zhao Yanran half stood up and grabbed him, "Where are you going at night?"

Chen Yanqing put on another obscene garment, and said, "Go to bed first, I'll take a bath."

Zhao Yanran hurriedly pulled him back, and snorted, "You're being stupid again, it's not like I can't smell it..."

Before she finished speaking, her face turned pale, she pushed Chen Yanqing away, threw herself on the bedside and vomited.

Seeing this, Chen Yanqing quickly patted her back lightly.

When Zhao Yanran got better, he got out of bed and poured a cup of tea for her to rinse her mouth.

"I'm going to ask the doctor. You will ask someone to change the clothes and put down the curtain."

Zhao Yanran regained her strength, seeing that Chen Yanqing's clothes were all neatly dressed, she couldn't help asking: "Where are you going to invite a doctor now?"

Seeing that her face was still pale, Chen Yanqing was worried, and said: "Don't worry about it, I'll go and come back soon."

As he spoke, he pushed open the door, and the tall figure hurriedly disappeared into the night.

Although there were people on duty in the military medical battalion, they were all specialized in treating trauma and epidemic diseases. Chen Yanqing went to the mansion of Imperial Physician Li.

Chen Yanqing knew Imperial Physician Li, and he also prepared the medicine pillow that Zhao Yanran gave to her.

This Imperial Physician Li can be described as a master in gynecology, and the ladies in the palace are always trying to curry favor with her. Chen Yanqing was able to make friends with him because the only son of Imperial Physician Li was by his side as his personal guard.

......

When Chen Yanqing hurried back home with Li Taiyi, a thick curtain had been drawn on the bed, no one could be seen, only a small piece of white wrist was exposed outside.

Seeing that Doctor Li had taken the pulse, Chen Yanqing hurriedly said, "Is she alright?"

Imperial Physician Li said with a chuckle: "Don't worry, General, Madam is very happy. It will take about a month for the old man to prescribe an anti-fetal medicine..."

As he was talking, he saw that the majestic and heroic General Chen, whom his son said was in awe, was stunned, showing the ecstatic expression of a beggar under the overpass picking up gold, walking up and down in the room, walking up and down …

He couldn't stop thinking: "Madam is happy, I'm going to be a father..."

Then overnight, all the handymen in the general's mansion, from Chen Yanyu and his wife down to sweeping the floor, knew that the general was going to be a father.

☆☆☆☆☆.

It was the second day that Shen Yulin received the news. Zhao Yanran was nearly thirty years old, and it was really not easy to conceive. He went to check on her a few times, and saw that she was well taken care of, so he was a little relieved.

The five days are not long or short, but in retrospect it is a blink of an eye.

Shen Yulin stood in front of the full-length mercury mirror, his black hair tied up with a white brocade headband, Hanmei Lingshuang's smeared forehead covered the scattered blue hairs on the corners of his forehead, and slowly tied on the jade white hair embroidered with ink patterns and gold embroidery. belt.

No amount of pride can match the reality. Emperor Wu of Jin was a long-lived king. He ascended the throne at the age of 35 and sat on the throne for 47 years.

He is only a seventh-rank official now, and given his age, he will definitely spend most of his life under Ji Qian's command. If his life is shorter, he will not even see Emperor Zhao of Jin ascend the throne.

What's more...he wants power, he wants fame, and he wants to be a supreme minister again. Only Ji Qian can give these.

Since his resurrection, he has been cautious in every step and made every step of the way. Ordinary people only think that he has climbed smoothly from a bastard to the present, but who knows what it feels like to fall from the sky to the dust?

In the previous life, power was dominated by the government and the people for half of his life. Hundreds of officials bowed their heads and princes flattered them. Now, even a second-rank official depends on people's faces. Who knows how he feels?

The face in the mirror has almost no resemblance to the previous life, but the pair of extremely clear phoenix eyes seem to be the same.

It's really ironic that a layman like him has such eyes.

Closing his eyes, Shen Yulin suddenly recalled the day when he was in charge of Xiangyin, there were sincere or false congratulations from all over the court.

Heh, success, fame and fortune are really his calamity, he was bound by it in the previous life, and he is burdened by it in this life.

It was getting late outside, Shen Yulin took one last look at the handsome young man with black hair and white clothes in his glasses, and slowly left the mansion with Jinxiu.

Yuran Lake is a diversion of the moat, and it is self-sustaining in the corner of the east city.

The bluestone long bridge has four steps and one pile, leading to the pavilion in the middle of the lake. There are simple bronze bells hanging from the four corners of the pavilion. Occasionally, there will be clear and pleasant bells ringing when the wind passes by.

Shen Yulin leaned halfway on the bluestone railing, looking indifferently at the lanterns all over the lake, reflecting the stars in the sky.

The laughter and laughter from far away on the shore made the lake pavilion even more lonely.

Jinxiu couldn't help but said: "My lord, today is the Qixi Festival, why don't you go and light a lantern to make a wish?"

Shen Yulin paused, and said, "Make a wish?"

While talking, an extinguished lantern was blown to his feet by the wind, and he leaned over to pick it up, but a piece of paper fell out, and he wrote: "I have been waiting for you for three years, and I have lost my time. Now I marry another, I only hope that you will marry me." install."

"Oh, is this love?"

Shen Yulin murmured, and casually put the paper and lantern back into the lake.

Ji Qian stood by the lake, the wind lifted his black hair and brushed over his black robe trimmed with gold patterns.

He looked at the master and servant in the pavilion, the corners of his lips twitched.

Shen Yulin also saw him, and for some reason, most of the uneasiness when he came was gone.

Ji Qian walked into the pavilion and said, "Waiting for a long time?"

Shen Yulin lowered his eyes and said, "I just arrived."

Ji Qian stroked his black hair, which was bundled into a strand, and said, "Will you go to see the lanterns?"

Shen Yulin paused, nodded, and signaled Jinxiu not to follow.

He was not afraid that he would reveal anything, Jinxiu was the little beggar he rescued, every word, deed, and every action was taught by him, without any second thoughts.

On Qixi Festival, even the daughters of the boudoir can travel. If there is a destined couple, they will privately inform the mansion of their names in order to come to the door to propose marriage, but many happy marriages have been achieved.

The Qi brothers are no different than these gentlemen and young ladies who express affection implicitly, holding hands, standing side by side, laughing, and the pair of handsome young men get along with different attitudes, which makes people smile knowingly.

Shen Yulin staggered half of Ji Qian's body and said nothing along the way.

Suddenly, Ji Qian paused and turned sideways. Shen Yulin was walking with his head down, but now he bumped into his arms.

The good-smelling incense overwhelmed him again...

Shen Yulin felt a tightness around his waist, and he struggled habitually, but he still couldn't get away.

Looking sideways, this place is the willow forest beside Yuran Lake. On one side is the path when you come here, on the other side is the lake, behind you is the tall city wall, and there is no one around.

Shen Yulin felt relieved, and said, "Can the lord let Yulin go first?"

Ji Qian said, "Anything to say?"

The deep voice rang in his ears, and the warm breath dyed his round and white earlobes red.

Shen Yulin nodded and said, "My lord, please listen to Yulin's words first."

Ji Qian didn't move, and said, "That's it."

Xia Ye had hot flashes, and it was uncomfortable to be covered by Ji Qian in his arms like this. Shen Yulin unconsciously struggled again, saying: "Yulin's words are very important..."

Ji Qian lowered his head, rubbed his chin reluctantly on the top of his hair, and slowly let go.

Shen Yulin took a step back, lowered his eyes and saluted, and said: "My lord treats Yu Lin with kindness as much as a mountain, and Yu Lin is willing to serve her with this body, but I just hope that my lord can abide by Yu Lin's three conditions."

Ji Qian didn't answer, but instead said: "Your kindness is as important as a mountain...serve him with your body?"

Shen Yulin's face turned slightly pale, but he still said: "That's right."

Ji Qian stared intently at the young man in front of him with dark eyes. His brows and eyes were still immature, and his always clear and smiling phoenix eyes contained uneasiness and a little bit of hope. He looked like a cat spying on his master's face.

He couldn't help but relax his expression, that's all, he was too impatient, although this young man is calmer than his peers, he is only fourteen or fifteen years old, after experiencing these things suddenly, it is rare to have the courage to negotiate terms with him, why bother scaring him.

Ji Qian raised his head and smoothed his slightly messy hair, and said in a soft voice: "What conditions, as long as I can do it."

Shen Yulin clenched his fist in his sleeve with his left hand, and tried his best to calmly say: "First, Yulin is not the type of actress and pet. Since the prince is interested, he must form a bond with Yulin as a brother, and the documents are proof."

Ji Qian nodded, "Naturally."

When Shen Yulin saw that he agreed, he felt relieved, and said again: "Secondly, a seven-foot man from Yulin, his heart is in the officialdom, and I hope the prince will control his concubines so that the disputes in the rear house do not harm Yulin."

Ji Qian frowned slightly, and said, "Would you mind?"

Shen Yulin was stunned, and said with a smile: "Being sour and jealous is a woman's behavior."

Seeing his eyes that gradually became brighter when he talked about his heart in the officialdom, Ji Qian sighed softly and said nothing.

Shen Yulin paused, and said: "Also, the last one... If one day the lord gets tired of Yulin, Yulin is willing to retire as a subject, and please be lenient, and don't stop Yulin's official career."

Ji Qian said: "This king has agreed to all three of these, and now, I also have one that I want Yu Lin to agree to."

Shen Yulin was stunned, but saw that Ji Qian untied a beautifully crafted dagger, carefully cut off a strand of black hair from his hair, tied a knot with his hair, and kept the white jade phoenix flying in the inner space, Leaning over his neck.

After fastening, Ji Qian took Shen Yulin into his arms again.

"That is... to form a king's deed, and life and death are not allowed to leave."
