Jia Huan has not returned for three years, and the personnel in Beijing have been renewed several times. This is the situation he is facing. In late November, Jia Huan had just arrived in Baoding Mansion.

Everyone in Beijing asked Jia Huan when he would return, and the starting point was different.

Compared with Chen Yejun, Feng Ziying and other small and medium-sized noble families looking forward to Jia Huan's return to Beijing, King Beijing, King Xiping Jun, etc., are a little more worried: the Son of Heaven does not like Jia Huan.

The Son of Heaven has entered his twilight years, and the Dragon Bintian has only been in this year or two. If Jia Huan jumps too happily after returning to Beijing, he is afraid that there will be something unbearable.

Beijing Palace. A bright moon is hidden in the clouds.

In the flower hall, the king of Beijing and the king of Xiping County, the world friend, drank tea and chatted. King Beijing had just added a son, and the old Wuxun group gathered because of this.

The king of Xiping County was dressed in a blue regular clothes and said, "Lord Wang, Wei Qihou has been aggressive recently!" Wang Anshi was just losing thousands of people and was stared at by him. "His status in the old martial arts group is lower than that of King Beijing, and he belongs to the backbone.

King Shui Rong of Beijing nodded gently, drank tea, thought for a while, and said, "Let's wait for Ziyu to come back." He should be almost there. Jia Cunzhou will arrive in Beijing in a few days. ”

Regarding political fighting, he tends to consult Jia Huan's opinion. Not to mention, the matter involved Jia Huan's uncle Wang Ziteng.

King Xiping smiled and nodded.

…

…

The night sky was overcast. The Yanwang Mansion in Fucaifang, in the southwest corner of the city, is in the palace of the prince in the capital, and the scale and specifications are at the middle and lower level.

A carriage returns in the darkness of night.

Yan Wang Ning Xi was nineteen years old at the time, and the weak teenager had become a young man, and he was the father of a child. When Jia Huan was in the Western Regions, he gave the nickname of King Yan's eldest son as: July.

From King Yan to the main room, Princess Yan Zhen Yi was sewing her son's clothes under the lamp, a jasper-colored jacket, with a pale pink skirt, with exquisite facial features and elegant demeanor. A beauty like a flower. The maids served.

Zhen Yi saw that King Yan was drunk, served him to change his clothes, wiped his face, and complained slightly: "Does the prince have to drink every time he sees Yue Guogong?" ”

Yan Wang Ning Xi's temperament is relatively weak, and when he saw his wife's reproach, he smiled apologetically and said, "I've tired you." I'm really happy today. Brother Cheng said that Mr. was going back to Beijing. ”

Zhen Yi didn't react for a while, and turned around to hang on King Yan's padded jacket, "Which gentleman?" ”

Ning Xi was drunk and smiled quietly: "Mr. Jia." "Mr. is returning to Beijing in the name of asking for leave.

Zhen Yi was stunned. Some lost their minds. Then, busy, he said, "Hmm." ”

Ning Xi smiled, he knew the complicated emotions of the Zhen family towards Mr. Jia. And he thinks about the happy time of studying under his husband. Sir probably won't leave Beijing again, right?

…

…

Outside the eastern city of the capital, in the headquarters of the Xianheng Commercial Bank, Ji Cheng, the editor of Hanlin, and Yao Wei, the head of the Xianheng Commercial Bank in Beijing, drank a little wine. Drown one's sorrows.

Yao Wei is in his thirties, he is handsome, has an ordinary appearance, has a reputation for showing talent, and is a well-known Confucian merchant in Beizhili. Taking a sip of liquor, he asked, "Bo Yan, the Shi family does not agree with your marriage to the eldest girl of their family?" Eh, that's weird, isn't that?

You're a Hanlin. How many people in Beijing want to marry you. Although it is not as exaggerated as Shen Yuqiao now, it is not a lot, right? ”

He and Ji Cheng are both descendants of Jia Huan in the academy. Ji Cheng is the most outstanding disciple in the academy after Jia Huan. Strong practical ability, drawing inferences from one example.

Ji Cheng was twenty-three years old at the time, his face was full of bitterness, he drank wine depressedly, and said: "The Shi family thinks that I was born with mud legs. The actual reason is that they want to climb to the Chinese University. The son of the Hua scholar intended to take her as a concubine. When will the head of the hospital return? ”

The head of the courtyard went to the Western Regions, he was in Beijing, and often went to Jiafu to help one or two. and Jia Rong, Jia Qiang, Jia Yun, etc. are all familiar with each other. I happened to meet the eldest girl of the Shi family who often came to Jiafu to live and relax, and I was shocked and fell in love at first sight.

In the past three years, I have become acquainted with the girl of the Shi family. also sympathized with her suffering: married to Wei Ruolan, but was widowed.

He wanted to marry a girl from the Shi family, but his wish did not come true.

Yao Wei said funny: "It's useless for you to ask every day." The head of the courtyard is on the road, even if it is separated from the Governor of Qi's brigade, it will not be earlier than the eighth day of the lunar month at the earliest. ”

Ji Cheng held his forehead in distress. Even if he is full of wealth and power changes, what can he do about this kind of thing?

…

…

Winter is soft. Projected on the evergreen trees in the garden of the Yongshou Palace, a few spots of daylight are dappled. Deep verdant shade.

Empress Yang looked at her son bouncing in the garden with pity on her face, dressed in a dark red palace dress. More than 20 maids and eunuchs around him.

Three years have passed, and the years seem to be particularly fond of Yang Yanyan. Time has left no trace on her face.

The thirty-seven-year-old Empress Yang is still slender and delicate, with snow-white skin and a delicate and flawless appearance. The graceful and luxurious beauty is dressed in palace clothes, and her eyes are as tall and straight, round and jade. With a smile and a smile, with the style of a mature beauty, it can be called a stunner.

But the temperament is dignified and graceful. constitutes her unique style. Fanghua is peerless.

Shu King Ning Ke was also there, looking at Ning Yuan, the king of Yong, who was about to turn six, and praised with a smile: "Queen Mother, Brother Yuan is smart and smart, and he will definitely be a civil and military all-rounder in the future." ”

Empress Yang chuckled gracefully and said, "Where did Ke'er hear the good words?" ”

Ning Ke smiled and said, "Queen Mother, this is what Yin Langzhong said. Yin Yan is very attentive to teaching Prince Yang.

Empress Yang smiled slightly, in her heart, why didn't she have high hopes for her son? May the Son of Heaven live a long life. Hold on for a few more years.

"Yuan'er, take a break." Empress Yang shouted, asked the palace maid to take her son down to wipe her sweat, and left the back garden with the king of Shu and walked to the palace. The palace maids and eunuchs followed behind them.

Empress Yang smiled and said: "Ke'er, there is a lot of commotion outside, Shen Qian, the husband of the third girl of Jiafu, has not returned yet, and now he is hot in Beijing." The matchmakers all broke through the door of the Shen family. When will Jia Ziyu come back? When his sister gets married, you will send me a generous gift. ”

Jia Huan is coming back. She wanted to befriend him. If anyone has the ability to put her son on the throne, she believes that this person is Jia Huan!

Ning Ke teased Empress Yang and smiled. It was hard to say in his heart: his wife was Shen Qian's sister. He and his wife have a good relationship. Children have it. However, Jia Tanchun is the woman he loves deeply in his life.

At this time, she will finally get married. Luckily, her husband is so outstanding! Otherwise, how safe would he be?

"Okay."

Empress Yang nodded slightly, and then whispered: "Don't get involved in the turmoil in the court this time." ”

The King of Shu responded: "Yes." But I was slightly shocked in my heart.

In early December, a fierce battle broke out in the court. Because of the great report on the Mobei war exploits in Pravda, public opinion rose because of this, and Ji Xingsheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, wrote a letter asking the Son of Heaven to reward the generals and heroes.

Of course, he will not mention Jia Huan's merits in the cantata. He and Jia Huan are political allies, and they will not harm Jia Huan like this.

However, his political opponent, the scholar Hua Mo, made a secret twist and attacked Ji Xingsheng for ignoring the plight of the monarch, acting on his own selfish desires, and manipulating the court situation. Subsequently, he turned out the old things of Ji Xingsheng in the seventeenth year of Yongzhi: forming a party. Throw it in one piece.

He listened to Sister Xiao's analysis.

Ji Xingsheng asked for a big reward for all meritorious heroes, and his original intention was to grasp the initiative in personnel adjustment. Mobei won the victory, and the Son of Heaven was indeed very happy. However, he ignored the situation that there was no silver in the treasury and no silver in the treasury.

In November, on the Holy Birthday Festival, Zhang Anbo, the imperial historian of the left capital, advised in person: Don't spend too much, too much extravagance, which makes the Son of Heaven extremely unhappy.

Hua Mo used this to solve his political opponents. The root reason is that the Son of Heaven wants Hua Mo to stabilize the court and not bother him. The Son of Heaven chose a more considerate and flattering Huamo. And give up the quite famous Ji Xingsheng.

Ji Xingsheng was tortured in prison and his home was raided. At present, in the court, the discipline party is being hunted down.
