The Laughing Usa of the Red Chamber

It was a coincidence that Zhao Yanran gave birth at [-]:[-] noon that day, and at night, there was a news of success and the flying horse returned to Beijing.

The Northern Yi royal court was broken.

……

Shen Yulin knew about it earlier. At that time, he was sitting in his study reviewing official documents. The last time the pigeon returned, the letter read "Hacha has landed. I will return within half a month. Don't read it."

Shen Yulin flicked the letter paper, his eyes sank slightly.

It was too soon. It was supposed to be three years of hard work. Ji Qian fought side by side with the soldiers and gained great prestige. During this period, the Yi people were completely defeated. Although Ji Qian made some achievements, he was firmly overshadowed by the Chen brothers.

At this time, the court was in chaos, the Zong and Yin parties were not cleared, the Yongyu Party took advantage of the situation, the Seven Princes succeeded, Chen Xiang was old, the power struggle was fierce, the supervisory department gradually became a scale, and officials below the third rank were all in danger, hidden. There is an intention to form a faction to fight against each other, but recently there are some grievances in the harem... How can it be a mess?

Returning to Beijing at this time is not a good thing.

Shen Yulin stroked the pigeon's head, saw Ji Qianzhong's peaceful handwriting, and sighed.

That's all, that's all, soldiers come to block, water comes and soil floods, chaos will go away, from the moment he entered the official position, history has changed.

In the middle of the moon, when the official document was approved, Shen Yulin called Jinxiu to fetch water, and was about to wash up, when a piece of white and moist jade suddenly rolled out of his sleeve pocket, fell to the ground, and made a muffled sound.

Jinxiu hurried to pick it up, looked at it, got up and said with a smile: "The quality of this jade is really good, do you want to give it to Young Master Feng?"

It was only then that Shen Yulin remembered that he had buckled the jade from his younger brother's womb during the day, and his face was slightly condensed. He had doubts about ghosts and gods all these years, but this younger brother who was similar to Jia Baoyu's origin still made him unable to feel happy.

A man becomes an official from Wendang, benefiting one side, and punishes the strong and helps the weak from Wudang, protecting the family and the country. A younger brother like Jia Baoyu, he is really not blessed.

"It's not a year, what should I give him? The most indispensable thing in Shaoqin's place is jade." Shen Yulin frowned, and was about to admire the splendor by the way, when he caught a glimpse of the words "Wen Tao Wu Lue" on the jade, and felt in his heart. Slightly shivering, he said slowly, "You go to Yufang tomorrow, and use this jade to make a pair that is exactly the same. It just happens to be used on the third day of washing."

Jinxiu responded in a low voice, looked at the jade over and over several times, and suddenly felt a little confused: "My lord... Jinxiu has poor eyesight, so I don't know what kind of material this jade is made of?"

Shen Yulin saw that the jade was crystal clear and moist, milky white, and a little transparent under the candlelight, and the material could not be seen, so he said: "Then replace it with suet white jade, this jade... just wear a red tassel."

Jin Xiu didn't ask any more questions, she nodded and waited for Shen Yulin to wash up.

……

In the dead of night, separated by bed curtains, Shen Yulin took out the phoenix double-flying pendant from his bosom, and sighed softly.

The dark line wrote a letter every three days, and there were 53 letters accumulated in the May period, and none of them mentioned the twin sister. Did he not care, or did he think it was unnecessary?

The emperor only favors Yi, but he can do so for 30 years. Nothing can be done by beauty alone, only sincerity.

Ji Qian is sincere to him, he can see that when he looks at him, it is very similar to that of the eldest princess in the previous life, only less the obsession and admiration of women, and more admiration and love from the superiors, he is very fond of this scene. Most of the emotional hesitation also stems from this.

His starting position was too low, and Ji Qian was born as a prince, the two were unequal from the very beginning.He has carried the sorrow of the son-in-law for 20 years, and Ji Qian obviously has more than the eldest princess.

Shen Yulin doesn't live on feelings. If Ji Qian was an ordinary Qi brother and found a new favourite, he would at most sneer and let it go, but obviously, this relationship has affected his long-cherished official career.Men all over the world are like this. When facing the old man, they first apologize, then feel ashamed, and finally hate. Even if they have an appointment, what can a courtier who is rejected by the emperor do?

The only thing that can be equivalent to sincerity is sincerity, which may not be fair, but the emperor's love, even if he has lived in two lives, he does not dare to believe it.

The jade pendant in his palm reflected a faint white color in the night, and the tentacles were slightly cool. Shen Yulin closed his eyes and sighed softly.

If the historical facts come true, he will only plan carefully and fade away this ridiculous relationship step by step. The dignity of a man does not allow him to compete with women for favor. The name represents countless benefits... Even though, he is a little tempted.

Putting the interests of official career first, and talking about being tempted, it sounds a little ridiculous, but Shen Yulin was born with a cold heart, and there are very few people who can be cared for by him. For those who are in love, there is only one Ji Qian in the two lives.

Men's love is inherently colder, even that person, I'm afraid he only appeared after calculating the pros and cons.

Shen Yulin tucked the jade pendant under the pillow and covered her neck with the quilt, but somehow she couldn't sleep.

☆☆☆☆☆.

"This king's tent is more beautiful than the army's tent, Mr. Chen?"

Ji Yuanyi wore a tailor-made ink-colored soft-armored war robe, sat on the Yi tribe's royal chair, and raised his eyebrows at Chen Yanyu quite vigorously.

Chen Yanyu rolled her peachy eyes and said with a gentle smile: "Your Majesty is right, although the barbarians are poor, the king's account is still very good."

With this kind of tone again, Ji Yuan was also bored, and took a gold whip with a horn handle from the table, "This thing is good, what about the other one?"

The golden whips were obviously in pairs, Chen Yanyu smiled slightly, and said: "Brother Cai just now..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Yanqing lifted the curtain to enter the tent, with some gold and silver ornaments hanging in his arms, and a shiny golden whip around his neck...

Ji Yuanyi's smile froze, Marshal, Hacha is still signing the letter of surrender next door!

Chen Yanqing caught sight of the golden whip that had just dropped, nodded towards Ji Yuanyi, and with great effort pulled out the golden whip with one free hand, and walked out of the king's tent with an upright and serious face.

Ji Yuan also had little contact with Chen Yanqing, so he was a little dazed at the moment, the hand that used to hold the whip was still frozen in mid-air.

Chen Yanyu smiled helplessly: "My son forgives my sin, my brother was rude. Yesterday there was a letter from Beijing, and my sister-in-law gave birth to my third son for my Chen family. My brother is just a little... um, excited."

Ji Yuan also said: "Marshal, the way you get excited...is quite special."

Chen Yanyu smiled contemptuously, and said in her heart: Habits are natural. In the past, my elder brother snatched loot to save money to redeem his wife, then to save money to support his wife, and now to save money to support his wife and son. His task is very heavy. ah……

So five days later, Marshal Chen, who had a heavy task, returned to Beijing with two large boxes of gold, silver and jewelry.

……

After the letter of surrender was signed, we only had to wait for the imperial envoy to receive it. As the return date approached, Ji Qian also had some free time, and only had time to study the "Wanxiang Formation" during the evening break.

The candlelight was extremely bright, and Ji Yuanyi sat by the table and rubbed his wrists. He stole a glance at Ji Qian who was reading on the narrow couch, and stopped writing for a while.

"You're lazy again." Ji Qian said calmly without raising his head.

Ji Yuan also pursed his lips and looked at the thick stacks of rosters on the left and the large rolls of statistical records on the right, and he suddenly had a bitter face, "Father, my child has been proofreading for a whole day, isn't there a special proofreader..."

Ji Qian said: "You've been quite impetuous these days, you need to sharpen your temper, or if you go back, your master will blame me."

Knowing that it is useless to show weakness, Ji Yuan curled his lips and snorted: "It's rare to see that Zhi'er Xuan'er, otherwise be careful that Master will hate you to death!"

That pair of dirty things has some tricks, looking at the opportunity, the younger sister blocked the arrow for the father, and it was in full view... Hmph, the grace of saving lives, with the father's skill, can't the arrow be avoided?Ridiculous!

Ji Qian paused, turned a page, and said, "You look like you're protecting your mother. Speaking of which, why haven't I seen you get close to your mother's family all these years?"

Ji Yuan also smiled and said: "Don't think I don't know, my father is changing the subject... My mother's heart is very big, they cast the net widely and catch more fish, what's the trouble with my mere son?"

Ji Qian said: "You know?"

Ji Yuan also sneered: "Who else in the world would remember father's preferences so clearly except the Qing family? Who else would be so stupid as to think that they can support the world with a woman's belly!"

Ji Qian said: "I was also worried about you, and wanted to save some face for the Qing family, but it was self-defeating."

Ji Yuan was also taken aback, hummed and turned his head, but the roots of his ears were a little red.

"Since this is the case... this son will reluctantly accept them..."

Ji Qian couldn't help laughing, and said with a low smile: "Who wants you to do anything? These women are dirty, and keeping them is a disaster."

Ji Yuan also knew Nei Wei's secrets very well, so he didn't care, but he was inexplicably relieved. He checked the three volumes of prisoners of war statistics again and again, and then suppressed the weird joy.

It must be the kind of counterfeit that won't even catch my eyes!

Seeing his expression, Ji Qian sighed softly.

"I heard that Marshal Chen was blessed with three sons yesterday, so it's a coincidence that they were born when Hacha surrendered." Ji Yuan also said.

Ji Qian raised his eyes slightly, "Three sons in one birth, or the bastards born on the same day?"

No wonder he thinks this way, twins are rare, triple births are a great blessing, and no one will be surprised if there is no death report for pregnant women.

Ji Yuan also said: "It's the marshal's wife who has three sons. Didn't the gang leader just now have red eggs? One person has three, how can a bastard get such treatment."

As he said that, he thought of something again, and smiled maliciously: "It seems that the marshal and the military adviser have never taken concubines? That's just right, the pair of sisters will give them one each!"

Ji Qian said helplessly: "Since she is a rare and dedicated lover, why do you bother to dislike her?"

Ji Yuanyi blinked his black eyes, and said: "As expected, it is Ai Wu Ji Wu, who even protected the master and mother... The father and the king just lost the Chen family brothers' special affection!"

Ji Qian chuckled and said, "One of the four concubines has retired, and three have gone crazy. How can there be anyone else in my backyard?"

Ji Yuan also raised his lips, and was about to have a good argument with his father, when he heard Ji Qian say indifferently: "Today we need to proofread all the cases, Yuan Yi, it's the time of You."

Ji Yuanyi's pen began to tremble...
