Chapter 684 Jia Heng: What if something is found out?

The next day, Jinyang Princess Palace

The summer is scorching, the cicadas sing and the forest is quiet, and the heat rises by the lake. Suddenly, the cool breeze blows on the lake, and the ripples are formed, and the heat is dissipated.

In the waterside pavilion surrounded by water on three sides, the layout is exquisite. Under the walls with vases and furniture hanging on all sides, the ice mirror filled with ice cubes blows a heavy cool air upwards, dispelling the heat of summer, and after the ice water melts When the water drips into the ceramic pipe, it makes a ticking sound, which is crisp and pleasant.

The beauty is wearing a red low-cut dress, her delicate green silk is curled up, a snake-shaped jasper hairpin is inserted between the clouds, her forehead is as smooth as jade, her willow-leaf eyebrows are like a crescent moon, her straight nose bridge is pursed, and her red lips are light. At this moment, he is playing chess with Yuan Chun across a chess field, holding the chess pieces and placing them on the chess field.

Yuan Chun wore a pale yellow chrysanthemum-patterned palace gown, combed a girl's hair in a bun, pinned a gold hairpin and swayed, that plump snow-greasy face was covered with slight sweat, the little gown under her neck was soaked and wet, and the shadow of the full moon was indistinct, The cheeks on both sides are even more flushed.

Because of her plump body, she was a little afraid of the heat, and the sweat on her temples washed away the powder on her cheeks, making her even more plump and charming. At this moment, she held a pink handkerchief in her hand and wiped her cheeks from time to time.

"Your Highness, Uncle Yongning is here." At this moment, Lianxue came from behind the screen and said with her hands down.

When Princess Jinyang heard the words, she saw joy on her jade face, and put the chess piece in her hand into the chess basket, her beautiful eyes narrowed, she looked at Yuan Chun, who was also happy, and said softly: "He is here."

Yuan Chun's brows and eyes were delighted, and he gave a soft "hmm".

Not long after, Jia Heng was dressed in a bamboo blue su brocade gown with auspicious cloud patterns, with clear eyebrows and a face like dark water. Under the guidance of the female officer, he stepped into the attic, looked at the two gorgeous ladies in palace clothes, and asked: " What about playing chess?"

The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled lightly, looking forward to Liubo with her beautiful eyes, and asked softly: "Ziyu, why are you free today? Are you okay in the yamen?"

Jia Heng said: "I have nothing to do these two days, so I came to see you."

Princess Jinyang turned her eyes to look at Yuan Chun, and said with a light smile, "I see you because of your big sister."

Knowing that the two of them were in Rongguo Mansion, it was inconvenient to avoid other people's eyes, so they came to her for a tryst.

Yuan Chun got up, looked at the young man, with a slight blush on Xue Ni's cheeks, and said softly, "Brother Heng."

"Big sister." While talking, Jia Heng sat down, when Lianxue handed over the teacup.

"Jinyang, come here this time and ask you something." Jia Heng was silent for a moment, looking at the beautiful woman with a pretty face like a flower, and asked in a concentrated voice.

Princess Jinyang saw Jia Heng's serious face, and her tone was even more solemn, her phoenix eyes turned around, and she gave Lianxue a wink, and the maidservants around her left the waterside pavilion with their hands down.

"What's the matter, so serious?" Princess Jinyang asked softly, picking up an orange with her slender hand and peeling it. Not long after, she broke half of an orange and handed it to the boy opposite. , eyes full of mist.

Jia Heng took the orange, held it in his hand, stared at the graceful and gorgeous beauty, and said slowly: "Jinyang, do you know Chen Xiao, the daughter of King Zhou?"

When Princess Jinyang heard the words, the smile froze on her face. Under the beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows that were curved like crescent moons, her long and narrow phoenix eyes were piercing. She asked, "Chen Xiao? She is in your house?"

Jia Heng said: "You really know her?"

"She is the daughter of Brother Zhou, and she is almost [-] years old. She disappeared a few years ago when she went hunting in the suburbs of the city. She doesn't want to go to the mansion now." Princess Jinyang's phoenix eyes were calm. , asked: "What happened to her?"

Secretly thought, this person met a woman from their old Chen family.

Jia Heng's eyes sank a little, and he said in a low voice: "She didn't disappear, but she joined the White Lotus Sect. I caught her at home yesterday."

If the daughter of the clan reappeared after disappearing, Jinyang shouldn't be so calm, then there must be something else hidden.

"Ah, this..." Princess Jinyang heard the words, her phoenix eyes flashed slightly, and she asked in surprise, "You don't like her, do you?"

Jia Heng shook his head slightly, and said: "She is a noble daughter of the clan, what else can I do to her?"

Princess Jinyang was silent for a while, her face seemed to show memories, she said softly: "She didn't know who was bewitched at the beginning, she thought that there was something strange about the death of Brother Zhou's illness, and then asked me, I also asked the Empress Dowager, after the Emperor Brother learned about this, he severely reprimanded her, and she disappeared not long after. Appearing in your house and joining the Bailian rebellious party, the older you get, the more ignorant you become."

Jia Heng was silent for a while, looked around, and saw that only Yuan Chun was looking at the young man with beautiful eyes, so close to the beauty, and close to the ear, under the surprise of Princess Jinyang, he whispered: "She He also said that I was the heir of the deposed prince."

Princess Jinyang's jade face suddenly changed, and she scolded softly: "It's a bunch of nonsense!"

Jia Heng: "..."

Jin Yang's words are almost exactly the same as his.

My heart secretly breathed a sigh of relief, relieved, and a little lost, huh?It seems that something is wrong, in short, it’s not just boring.

The eldest princess of Jinyang's jade face was as clear as frost, and she said coldly: "She has listened to someone's nonsense, and now she is only thinking about getting justice for her father, and dare to say such baseless words! How dare you speak out! I think... once such words are spread, it will harm you."

With Brother Huang's suspicious and mean temperament, and the fact that Jinyi Mansion, Jingying, and Wucheng Bingmasi are all in the hands of this person, if he hears this, even if he doesn't believe it, he must doubt the life experience of the person in front of him. Then check... At that time, it was man for the knife and I for the fish.

In many cases, it is not whether you are rebellious, but whether you have the ability to rebel. Emperor Chongping's trust in Jia Heng is the result of Jia Heng's continuous "gathering momentum". The body, the inner palm of the brocade clothes, the outer collar of the Beijing camp.

Jia Heng said: "I thought so too, that's why I came here to ask you, is she talking nonsense?"

Princess Jinyang said: "I see that she is stupefied, but it may be that she said this on purpose, and her heart can be punished."

No one knows the life experience of the person in front of her better than her, and she is by no means an heir of a prince.

"Now, is she still at the mansion? I'm going to see her." The eldest princess of Jinyang had a gloomy look, with a hint of anger in her eyes.

Jia Heng frowned, and said in a low voice: "There's no need to go, as long as you're sure it's not an heir."

Jinyang's words should be credible. As for Jinyang's going to Ningguo Mansion, well, forget it, if you don't want to make trouble.

Princess Jinyang frowned, cast a white look at Jia Heng, thought for a while, and said, "Then you can bring her over to my side for the next two days."

Jia Heng said: "Let me see again, she is not restricted much now, and I don't know if she has run away now, she has good martial arts skills."

Princess Jinyang said: "She liked to wield knives and guns when she was a child, have you fought her?"

Jia Heng nodded without further explanation.

The eldest princess of Jinyang said softly: "Don't worry too much, the scandal happened in the Longzhi period, and it was completely different from your age. It was clearly a lie to you, or you were using your power to find out the real heir. , or to disturb your mind, making you and the imperial brother in the palace suspicious of each other."

Jia Heng looked deeply at Princess Jinyang, and said: "But she mentioned that my mother who passed away was a female medical officer in Shangyao Bureau, and the person serving in the palace was Concubine Jing. It's... a little weird."

As he said that, he fixedly looked at the beauty, catching the changes in his micro expressions.

Princess Jinyang frowned, and said softly: "Then have you ever investigated your mother?"

Jia Heng looked at the beauty's face and saw that there was no change in color. He breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "I haven't come in time to investigate, but it's not easy to investigate this matter now."

These things are not easy to check, otherwise, what if something is really found out?Have to guard against.

Jia Heng shook his head, picked up a piece of orange and ate it in his mouth. After a while, he said, "There are many doubts about this matter. I want to ask Chen Xiao first."

Rather than sending someone to investigate, it's better to gag Chen Ling's mouth and prevent her from grinning outside.

The eldest princess of Jinyang had bright eyes, took the young man's hand, and said with relief: "Okay, don't worry about it, you will bring someone here some other day, and I will teach her a lesson, the little girl is capable enough to dare Disrespectful to her uncle."

Jia Heng: "..."

There was a strange feeling in my heart, but after thinking about it, I felt that since Jin Yang was so determined, it probably wasn't.

Jia Heng pondered and said: "Then I'll look back and see if I can get something out of her mouth."

The eldest princess of Jinyang thought for a while, and said: "She has a strong temperament, determination, and martial arts skills. I don't know what she has experienced outside these years. Her temperament is unpredictable, so you have to be careful. She has a good relationship, if she doesn't want to come, you can take Xianning to bring her here."

Jia Heng nodded, pulled Princess Jinyang's slender catkins, and said, "I will."

Turning to look up at Yuan Chun, she asked, "Big sister, long time no see."

Yuan Chun's plump and glamorous jade face was filled with worry, and he said softly, "Brother Heng, what did you tell His Highness just now?"

Just now, it was the abolition of the crown prince, and it belonged to the king of Zhou. It seems to be related to the secret story of the Longzhi dynasty’s seizing the heir. Also, Brother Heng suspected that he was the heir of the abolition of the crown prince. Isn’t that the same royal family as His Royal Highness Jinyang? ?

No, if Brother Heng's surname is not Jia, then she is not of the same family as Brother Heng?

This is really... an escape from a desperate situation!

With this thought, Yuan Chunfang jumped in disappointment, the temptation to be with her lover in an upright manner almost made people short of breath and feel hot all over.

Jia Heng said: "It's nothing, it's all speculation."

Princess Jinyang cut off the conversation with a smile, and said: "Okay, you two sisters and brothers have been reunited since they came back, I will go to see Chanyue, she mentioned you yesterday .”

Jia Heng raised his eyes to look at Li Ren, and said softly, "Don't go."

Princess Jinyang stared at Jia Heng with beautiful eyes, full of smoke, smiled and said: "Why do you want Ben Gong and Yuan Chun to serve you together?"

Since serving him with Yuan Chun last time, this man has clearly tasted the sweetness, and he can't forget it.

But at this time, Yuan Chun had lowered his head, his snowy cheeks were flushed with blush, the beauty was like a glow, Wan Ning's wonderful eyes were almost full of water, and his voice trembled, he said: "Brother Heng, Don't be too nonsense for a while."

Although he is young, he should not be too ignorant.

Jia Heng was speechless for a while, took Jin Yang's hand, and said softly: "I have something to tell you, and I want to ask your opinion."

Previously, Qin Keqing asked him to make up his mind because of the Queen Mother's preparations for the birth ceremony, and asked other people, and now he happened to ask Jinyang.

Seeing this, Princess Jinyang was a little surprised and nodded, but at this moment, the young man opposite him took her and Yuan Chun's hands and walked towards the inner bed.

Princess Jinyang said angrily, "You..."

"Ask inside, it's getting a little hot here." Jia Heng said in a low voice.

……

……

In the Princess Palace, in the southwest direction, willows and sycamore trees are planted all around, covering a large area of ​​shade, and in a three-story embroidered building, under the west window on the second floor.

Li Chanyue, owner of Qinghe County, was sitting in front of the window in a blue dress, holding a book in her hand, and was concentrating on reading it. From the title page, it was clearly the Three Kingdoms Storybook.

The girl put down the book, propped her snowy cheeks with one hand, her eyes were lost in thought, and the words that made people blush in her ears seemed to appear before her eyes, and her hands were dishonest, which caused her to have messy dreams these few nights.

Thinking deeply, I don't know if the weather is too hot, but a face as clear as snow is as red as haze, bright and moving.

At this time, a servant girl trotted into the hall and said in a low voice: "Princess, Yongning Bo is here."

Because a few days ago, Li Chanyue specifically told the maid to report to herself.

"Li Chanyue was stunned for a moment, put down the book in her hand, stood up and looked at the maid opposite, her starry eyes flashed, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Jia is a man. "

"It's over there with the princess." The maid said softly.

Li Chanyue's eyes were lost when she heard the words, and there was a deep resentment in her heart, Mr. Xiao Jia didn't come to look for her when he came over, did those words lie to her that day?

Among the waterside pavilions, although there are ice cubes in the house to cool down the heat, the heat in the heart cannot be dispelled.

"The queen mother actually likes Buddhism a little bit. You can find some Buddhist scriptures. By the way, she really likes the landscape paintings of the Buddha King Mojie. You can collect two pieces and send them over." Flushing red, her eyebrows and eyes are full of charm, and her intermittent voice is somewhat tactful and crisp.

The elderly woman is quite obsessed with a set of Buddhist theories, which is determined by the psychological state of a certain age.

Jia Heng stared intently, and said softly: "That is something related to Buddha, why not prepare a Jade Guanyin."

The eldest princess of Jinyang paused slightly, her beautiful eyes cast an angry look at Jia Heng, she snorted, and said: "You are no big or small, you can make all kinds of jokes."

Jia Heng: "???"

Looking down at the beauty who looks like a jade Guanyin, he whispered: "I, I really didn't expect that level."

Well, he didn't even think of it. It can only be said that he has read too many Jinyang atlases, and his associations are too rich.

And Yuanchun, who was already as soft as a silkworm, leaned his head on Jia Heng's arms, on that plump and snowy face, there were clusters of rosy red halos, gorgeous and unprovoked, like beautiful flowers and jade trees, and crystal sweat The beads flowed from the temples to the neck, and said in a low voice: "Brother Heng is going to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday tomorrow?"

"The day after tomorrow is the birthday of the queen mother. The wives of all families have to go to the palace to meet the queen mother. They need to prepare a birth gift. This is a question for someone else." The eldest princess Jinyang snorted softly, feeling complicated. He asked angrily: "Did you ask this yourself, or did Qin ask you to ask?"

Jia Heng looked around, the contented Princess Jinyang, her eyes lingering on the dense beads of sweat on her beautiful neck, her eyes moved, arousing the beauty's hatred.

Yuan Chun let out an "oh", pursed her cherry lips with her white teeth, and drew circles on Jia Heng's heart with her fingers.

Jia Heng caressed Yuan Chun's slippery snowy shoulders lightly, only to feel that Yuan Chun was so soft that people couldn't put it down, and said in a low voice: "What is big sister thinking, so preoccupied?"

He felt that Yuan Chun was hiding something on his mind just now, and when she was entangled just now, he asked her to call Brother Heng, even Yuan Chun was somewhat absent-minded.

Yuan Chun raised her jade face, which was as charming as a crabapple flower, and said in a waxy voice, "It's nothing."

Jia Heng thought for a while, then had some guesses in his heart, and asked: "Is the eldest sister thinking about the abolition of the prince's heir just now?"

It was mentioned just now that his background might not be from the Jia clan, so Yuan Chun was naturally moved.

Yuan Chun's delicate body trembled slightly, his snowy and jade face was stunned, he raised his eyes to look at the young man, after a moment of silence, he asked in a low voice: "Brother Heng, tell me...do you think your surname is Jia?"

Jia Heng looked at the thoughtful and shrewd girl with gentle eyes, and said in a low voice: "It would be great if the surname is not Jia, and the big sister doesn't have to become a monk."

Everything he did today had nothing to do with the Jia family. If he had a different background, he could give Yuan Chun a title, but first of all he should not have any connection with the abolished prince, otherwise it would be for Emperor Chongping.

"maybe."

Yuan Chun leaned his snowy cheek against Jia Heng's heart, and said with a dazed gaze, "Brother Heng, it's me... a little greedy."

Jia Heng looked at the gorgeous and charming beauty, and said softly: "You don't have to say that, big sister. I originally wanted to give big sister a title, but I don't know the inside story yet, and those who know the inside story are silent."

As she said that, she glanced at the eldest princess of Jinyang. The jasper hairpin pinned to the beauty's hair was in a state of anxiety, and the bead flowers at the end of the hairpin were scattered and bunched up, and then the bead flowers drew a circle in place.

"Ben Gong... I'm so tired here, my back is sore, and you're still chatting with Yuan Chun?" Princess Jinyang said angrily, out of breath, with beautiful eyes rippling.

Didn't it just mean that she didn't tell her the truth, so let's just say it, and give Yuanchun a title, a title?

Jia Heng's face paused, and he patted Princess Jinyang's roundness lightly. After a while, he said softly, "As far as your Highness knows, is my surname Jia?"

At this moment, Yuan Chun also stared at the beautiful woman, and felt that his hands were sweating, and he couldn't help but feel a little heavier, but he saw Jia Heng frowning and shaking his hand, and his cheeks couldn't help but blush.

The eldest princess of Jinyang, with her snowy back like a bow, said softly: "It doesn't matter if your surname is Jia or not, and I haven't seen you two being glued together like paint, sister and brother love each other deeply."

Naturally, his surname is not Jia, but it's not easy for him to know what his surname is now, otherwise misfortune and fortune will be unpredictable, and it's all Chen Xiao's fault for eliciting these well.

Jia Heng, Yuan Chun: "..."

"Hey, what are you doing in a daze?" Princess Jinyang's cheeks were glistening with sweat under her temple hair, she pursed her cherry lips, and thought to herself, sure enough, the pictures are all deceptive.

Jia Heng's expression paused, and Yuan Chun looked at each other with a startled expression. Jin Yang's answer was still ambiguous and missed the point, but he felt more and more trying to cover up.
