Chapter 615 You Can't Hide Your Favorite Eyebrows

On the lucky boat, the four corners of the hall have been lit with palace lanterns, and the illuminated room is bright and bright, and the lights are bright, and the female officials, nuns, and maidservants are guarding outside the beaded curtains of the cabin.

Following the arrival of Princess Jinyang and Princess Qinghe, Jia Heng got up and stared at him, his eyes brightened.

I saw the eldest princess of Jinyang wearing a rose-red long dress, with high temples, snow-skinned and jade-like face, beautiful and beautiful, under the curved willow leaf slender eyebrows, there is a lingering charm of charm, under the white and slender jade neck , wearing a low tube top skirt, showing a large area of ​​skin like a snow-white jade tree, beautiful and gorgeous.

Princess Qinghe next to her changed into a long lotus-colored dress and wore airy bangs in her hair. Because she had just taken a bath, her face was as clear as snow, and her eyes were as bright as a pool of autumn water. , but looked at Jia Heng who was sitting behind the table from time to time, with complex expressions in his eyes, and his gaze went down, involuntarily staring at the young man's lips.

She felt that she could no longer look directly at Mr. Jia.

Yuan Chun was sitting on the embroidered pier next to Jia Heng, and he was also staring at Princess Jinyang. His eyes caught the beautiful spring charm between the beauty's eyebrows and eyes.

"It's like a peony bearing dew, a delicate and beautiful flower that has been nourished." Yuan Chun frowned, and for some reason, such a sentence suddenly appeared in his heart, and then his heart jumped, his cheeks were slightly hot.

What is she thinking about this time?

Tanchun and Xiangyun blinked their bright eyes, and looked at the peerless young princess Jinyang. They couldn't understand it, but felt that today's noble beauty was extraordinarily beautiful and charming.

After getting along for this period of time, Tanchun and Xiangyun also had complicated feelings towards Princess Jinyang. They only felt that this beautiful woman was naturally not a big sister like Yuanchun, but... a beautiful aunt.

The eldest princess of Jinyang met everyone's attention, smiling sweetly, her watery eyes fell on Jia Heng's face, her voice was soft and charming, calling out: "Zi Yu."

Jia Heng paused, lowered his gaze again, cupped his hands and said, "His Royal Highness Jinyang."

Jinyang is becoming more and more tasteful. The graceful charm between every frown and smile, gestures and gestures, as well as the beautiful charm between eyebrows and eyes, are not intended to be coquettish, but a kind of unconsciousness and naturalness revealed naturally. Suddenly, there was a hook in his eyes.

At this moment, the two people exchanged words, as usual, and there was nothing unusual.

While speaking, Princess Jinyang held Li Chanyue's jade hand, smiled sweetly, and greeted softly: "Today is the reunion of old friends, don't be restrained, let's sit down and have dinner together, don't stand still."

As he spoke, he greeted the little girls present to sit down.

Jia Heng, Yuan Chun, Tan Chun, and Xiang Yun quickly thanked each other and followed the beauties to their seats.

A crowd of warblers and swallows, full of pearls and emeralds, especially with the help of candlelight, the exquisite hairpin decorations and bright rings show off the eyes, and the elegant, strong, or fresh fragrance is scattered, which makes people feel refreshed.

The eldest princess of Jinyang has a charming and charming appearance like spring blossoms and autumn moon. Under her curved and thin eyebrows, her eyes are as soft as autumn water. She looked at Jia Heng and said, "This time, my palace is here to inspect the river affairs in Henan. The safety of the embankment of the Yellow River is related to the livelihood of the people on both sides of the bank, so I wonder how the embankment of the Ziyu River is being repaired?"

Tan Chun frowned and looked at the beauty, with a hint of suspicion in his bright eyes.

Secretly thought, brother Heng and the eldest princess should have had a secret conversation for a long time before, didn't they ask these questions, or did they tell them on purpose?

Well, maybe it's a polite word when eating.

Jia Heng looked calm, put down the teacup in his hand, and said: "The repair of the river embankment is roughly half completed, and the other half is being rushed."

The repair and reinforcement of the embankment of the Yellow River, without comprehensive management, can only relieve the temporary difficulties first, but cannot seek long-term benefits. Qi Zhi.

Fortunately, due to the popularization of technical officials such as Chi Jingzhou, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry at the time of the founding of the country, some insightful people in the court also began to realize that the sediment is not solid because of the deforestation of trees and serious grass damage. ecological deterioration has been effectively curbed.

After this year's summer flood, I will report to the court about the strategy.

Princess Jinyang nodded her head and said softly: "Then can the embankment be completely repaired before midsummer?"

Jia Heng said: "The construction period in Henan is not bad, and the follow-up embankment needs to be stationed at the river platform in Qingjiangpu to preside over the construction."

He is the Governor of Henan Military Administration, and he only manages the embankments that pass through Henan. The river embankments that flow through Huaiyang are under the responsibility of the Governor of Nanhe.

Princess Jinyang's beautiful eyes were shining brightly, her snow-skinned and jade-like face was full of curiosity, and she said: "Before, Ziyu said that there will be floods this summer, but is there any proof?"

Jia Heng shook his head slightly, and said: "This is some inference made based on the records of weather changes. At present, it is just a speculation. Maybe there is no this summer, and it is possible to have it again next summer. of."

Tanchun and Xiangyun quietly listened to the casual conversation of the two, adults were talking, and children were not easy to interrupt, they felt that the two of them spoke eloquently and were close to nature.

Tan Chun frowned, and she didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that there was an indescribable weirdness in such an ordinary conversation without careful consideration of words.

Li Chanyue, the owner of Qinghe County, was also at the side, pouted, picked up the teacup, and took a sip.

Mother and Mr. Jia feel like an old married couple, but that's it, after all, both of them...

Thinking of this, her heart beat wildly, her cheeks blushed slightly, and she took a peek at Jia Heng.

This little Mr. Jia, if he hadn't seen it just now, he would really be deceived by his appearance.

Yuan Chun also listened to the conversation between Jia Heng and Princess Jinyang, thinking in her beautiful eyes.

Princess Jinyang said: "After receiving your "Chen He Shi Shu", the emperor attached great importance to Xia Xun's matter, wrote many times in Nanhe Hetai, and selected two censors, the last two censors The memorabilia was also delivered to the capital, and Peng Ye, the censor of the left deputy capital, is investigating the corruption of the Hedao yamen."

In fact, she didn't want him to be too harsh with what he said earlier, if there is no heavy rain this summer, there will always be some unsightly things.

But after thinking about it, I also knew that my royal brother was still paying too much attention to it.

Jia Heng put down the teacup and asked intently: "Have you ever found out anything?"

Not all memorials will be published in the imperial court’s newspaper, just as the internal consultations and research activities of the administrative department are not in the scope of information disclosure.

"Corruption has not been found out, but the river embankment has found some places that have been in disrepair for many years and need to be repaired and reinforced. The emperor has ordered the cabinet to issue a document to Nanhe Hetai Yamen to step up supervision and repair. At this moment, the official document should still be on the way." Princess Jinyang said softly.

Peng Ye, the censor of the left deputy capital, was not a rich man, not to mention that Gao Bin embezzled a part of Xiuhe's silver, but he didn't touch a single cent. As long as he wanted to find out the bones, he could always find mistakes.

After some on-the-spot visits, they finally found some river embankments in Suzhou whose construction quality was not up to standard. As if they were treasures, Shangshu criticized Gao Bin for being negligent and slack in river affairs.

However, this level of impeachment cannot shake Gao Bin at all, and if a comprehensive survey of the river embankment is carried out, it will take a long time.

Besides, Gao Bin has a different self-defense. Now the two sides are impeaching and attacking each other.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Li Chanyue, the little princess, said softly: "Mother, why don't you eat first, and we'll talk about it later, I think Sister Yun and the others are hungry."

"What Chanyue said is true, let's not talk about it, I am a little hungry right now." Princess Jinyang glanced at Tanchun, Yuanchun and Xiangyun with her beautiful eyes, and said with a smile: " I guess Tanchun and Xiangyun are also hungry."

Facing the beautiful woman's eyes and scanning, except Yuanchun's expression is relatively normal, Tanchun and Xiangyun both have some children who are shy and shy when facing adults.

Jia Heng said: "Then let's have dinner first."

Everyone moved their dishes and chopsticks one after another, and used the dinner party.

After a meal, the nanny and the maid removed the bowls, chopsticks and cups, while Princess Jinyang greeted several people and accompanied them out of the hall, and came to a temporary cabin next to the window, looking at it from the bookshelf. , is a small study.

Several people sat down, sipping tea and chatting. The tea is like Longjing tea after the rain, with a few wisps of fragrance wafting in. Outside the bamboo curtains, you can see sparks on both sides of the embankment, and you can hear the sound of water flowing on the side of the ship.

This time it was different from the previous narration alone, sitting together, mainly listening to Jia Heng's talk about the war in Henan, and chatting.

Princess Jinyang sat on a soft couch, and beside her was the little princess, looking at Jia Heng with a smile.

On the other side of the embroidered pier, Yuan Chun was sitting quietly, beside Tan Chun and Xiang Yun on the left and right, and the maids of the people behind were waiting on them with their hands down.

Jia Heng was sitting on the embroidered pier near the book case, holding a booklet in his hand, talking.

The booklet is the income and expenditure of various items brought from Beijing, Jia Heng didn't read it, and put it in his hand.

From the time when he led tens of thousands of cavalry troops from the Beijing camp, he rushed to Luoyang for help at a starry night, then dispatched troops to lead troops at Sishui Pass to wipe out the bandits under Gao Yue, and then led his troops to break through the city of Kaifeng. Don't dare to delay.

Beneath Tanchun's beautiful eyebrows, her bright eyes were shining brightly. Hearing Jia Heng's calm tone about his war experience in Henan, his face was dazed, and scenes seemed to emerge in front of his eyes.

Running thousands of miles, lashing out at Fang Qiu, plotting against the bandits, and trying to capture the bandit leader...

However, it was still a bit risky for brother Heng to fight the bandits himself.

Yuan Chun also looked at Jia Heng with a pair of bright eyes of concern, and a look of concern appeared on his jade face.

Because everyone was listening, they didn't pay attention to Yuan Chun's eyes. Even if they noticed it, they only thought that they were attracted by what Jia Heng said.

Princess Jinyang Yurong looked quiet, her beautiful eyes twinkled, and she sighed softly from the bottom of her heart.

She seems to understand what he said earlier... What does it mean to travel thousands of miles from Xianning to go out with the army.

Xianning accompanied him all the way, eating and sleeping, running thousands of miles, suffering a lot, and even had to watch the fights in person, but with Xianning's identity, there was no need for such...

Princess Jinyang suppressed the feeling of disappointment in her heart, and said softly: "I heard from the military newspaper that you went to Luoyang first, and the bandit leader still wants to repeat his old trick and attack Luoyang?"

Even if I learned about his pacification process in Henan from the military newspaper and the secret letter from Xia Houying, I still want to hear him talk about it personally.

Not for anything else, just willing to listen to his voice more and see his youthful appearance.

Thinking of this, the beauty's eyes were as bright as water, and she looked at the boy quietly.

Hearing this, Jia Heng looked up, and his eyes fell on Princess Jinyang's beautiful face, his heart was shocked.

Those narrow and long beautiful eyes have faded away from lust long ago, and the soft and peaceful gaze is as gentle as water. It is a kind of motherhood mixed with the admiration of little girls, the love of lovers, the attachment of husband and wife, and so on. Light, just looking at it, I feel a little throbbing in the soft part of my heart.

When a group of people laugh, always look at the person you like.

I can't hide the eyebrows I like.

That is in terms of hiding, if you don't hide it, it will probably be such a gentle and watery gaze.

He felt that after more than a month of separation, Jinyang's feelings for him, if it was mixed at the beginning, then after a period of fermentation during his expedition, it has become as mellow as wine. Although the lust has faded, he just glanced at it, Will be drunk in her fragrant evening breeze.

Jia Heng paused, suppressed the complicated thoughts in his heart, and said with a light smile: "The bandits took the city of Kaifeng lightly, and it is inevitable that they will be arrogant. Because the officers and soldiers of Sishuiguan had been prepared for a long time, they did not break the city. Three thousand bandits broke the city. It was damaged outside the Guancheng, and after returning to Kaifeng Fucheng, it was unable to suppress it, causing discord among the people, and it was defeated by the officers and soldiers..."

As he spoke, he described the process of calming down the chaos in as much detail as possible.

Princess Jinyang listened quietly, frowning and relaxing her brows, and her bright eyes sometimes showed worry and sometimes joy, as if listening to Jia Heng's words, she followed him to calm the chaos.

Princess Qinghe Li Chanyue glanced at her mother's expression, and thought to herself, is mother looking at Mr. Jia now, is her friendship almost undisguised?

Fortunately, everyone listened to Jia Heng telling the story of the chaos, and Jia Heng's words have brought them into the battlefield of fighting a month ago.

After listening to Jia Heng's story about the pacification of the chaos, Princess Jinyang calmed down and asked again: "It was said in the military newspaper earlier that you fought with the bandit leader Gao Yue?"

She was not worried about this matter at the beginning. This man insisted on making a move for the bandits. Originally, he wanted to say a few words to him after meeting, but after thinking about it, he must have other considerations.

Jia Heng met the pair of smiling eyes, and seeing the somewhat irresponsible eyes, said softly: "As a military commander, it is inevitable to fight against the enemy, but it's nothing. Will try to be strong.”

He knew what Jin Yang was thinking, he was no longer alone, he still had worries on his body, so he shouldn't take risks.

The courage of the generals, if you need to completely control the Beijing camp and unite the hearts of the people, you can't shrink back when it's time to show your bravery.

Yuan Chun said softly, "It's good that brother Heng knows what's in his mind."

Several people were talking, enjoying the joy of reunion, unaware that time flew by, and it was the turn of Xu Hai.

Princess Jinyang smiled and said: "Come here first today, let's talk about it tomorrow, my palace is also tired right now, Chanyue, let me go back with my mother."

In fact, some time was reserved for Jia Heng and Yuan Chun to get along.

Li Chanyue responded, glanced at Jia Heng, her eyes flickered, said goodbye to Yuan Chun and Tan Chun, and left the hall with Princess Jinyang under the eyes of everyone.

Jia Heng also turned to look at Yuan Chun, Tan Chun, and Xiang Yun, and said softly, "Elder Sister, let Third Sister and Sister Yun go back first, and tell me about the family affairs during this time."

Yuan Chunfang's heart skipped a beat, her beautiful eyes twinkled, her voice trembled imperceptibly, and she said, "Well, Brother Heng, go back first, I'll be there in a while."

After all, I have been obsessed with him countless times, and it has long been understood that it will be convenient for her to go tenderly after she dismisses Sister Yun and Third Sister.

……

……

The night covered the earth, in the tall blessing boat like a city, the cabin was quiet, only the river water on both sides of the ship "crashed" flowing, a round of bright moon hung on the sky, shining on the earth, falling into the water, being smashed by the boat moonlight.

In the middle of the night, Jia Heng was sitting in the wing room of the cabin. On the small table, the candles in the lantern were brightly lit. He was holding a book and reading it intently by the light.

"Brother Heng, are you inside?" At this moment, there was a sound of light footsteps from behind the screen, accompanied by the sound of the bead curtain, and a soft, watery voice sounded outside the door, it was Yuan Chun.

Jia Heng put down the book in his hand, got up, looked at Yuan Chun, and said, "Big sister, come and sit down."

As he spoke, he pointed to the soft couch beside him, gesturing to his side.

Yuan Chun's Fengrun Yurong's face paused for a moment, and immediately two blushes appeared. He sat down and was about to ask.

I don't want to just sit down, feel my shoulders being embraced, and the young man embraces me, I can't help but hum softly, and my heart can't help but feel ashamed and joyful.

Even the more intimate things have happened, but at this moment, being intimate with Jia Heng, there is still a little bit of embarrassment.

"Did you miss me these days?" Jia Heng looked at Yuan Chun lovingly, and gently sniffed the fragrance between Yuan Chun's beautiful hair.

A beauty who is over the age of double ten, her face is like a full moon, her skin is snowy and greasy, even her cheeks are rosy and rosy on both sides, and there is a little baby fat on her cheeks. A sweet fragrance.

Yuan Chun also belongs to the plump one. When held in his arms, it feels soft to the touch, as if holding a big chubby white goose with snow-white feathers. It is almost hard to put it down.

Just as Qu Le said, sinking fish and falling geese, closing the moon to shame the flowers, there is nowhere to hide the beauty, the country is beautiful and heavenly, let it be entangled...

Hearing and asking, Yuan Chun's gentle brows and eyes gradually showed a hint of embarrassment and joy, and his round and jade face was rosy because of the rising haze, and he gave a soft "hmm".

Jia Heng intentionally teased: "I didn't hear what Big Sister said just now."

He likes to tease Yuan Chun, mainly because Yuan Chun has a resigned appearance, occasionally showing a shyness of surprise and panic, combined with a baby fat face, and a gentle and intellectual age, there is an indescribable cuteness.

The bright eyes under Yuan Chunxiu's eyebrows were full of waves, and he glanced at it reproachfully, lowered his head, his white and greasy cheeks flushed red, his heart was full of sweetness, and his gentle voice was full of reproach: "I... ...I just said that."

He did it on purpose, he just liked to see her look ashamed.

"Then say it again, I just want to hear it." Jia Heng said softly.

The beauty with a soft face couldn't bear Jia Heng's coaxing, she lowered her head, bit her pink lips with her white teeth, and finally whispered a word: "I want to."

It's just that when he said it, his cheeks were already deflected, and he was so ashamed that he couldn't take care of himself.

"Then call Brother Shengheng to listen." Jia Heng smiled lightly and whispered.

Yuan Chun: "..."

This is what she calls out when she is forgetting herself on the bed. Usually... how do you call it out?

Not waiting for Yuan Chun to be ashamed and angry, Jia Heng pinched Yuan Chun's chin with smooth and greasy hands, holding the plump, white and greasy face that was almost like a peony stamen, and leaned over to hold it. He hadn't seen her for more than a month, and it was somewhat difficult to meet again now. self-sufficient.

At that time, the river outside the window was rushing, and the white moonlight shone through the bamboo curtains like mist on the two of them. It was summer, and the fireflies on the embankment were chasing back and forth among the flowers and plants. The night is as cool as water, gentle and quiet.

For a long time, Jia Heng looked warmly at Yuan Chun, who had rosy cheeks and delicate breath, and said softly: "Big sister, let's go to Luoyang and look around."

Yuan Chun pursed her moist lips, and said softly, "Let's talk about it when Brother Heng is not busy. If you have official business, you can't delay the business."

She is already satisfied seeing him every day, and she is not extravagant if she can go out for a walk.

Jia Heng only felt that the plumpness and tenderness were still the same, and said softly: "I still have free time."

Immediately asked: "What is big sister doing at home recently?"

Yuan Chun was both ashamed and sweet at being caught by Jia Heng, and said softly: "His Royal Highness is busy with the shop business in Beijing, and stayed at home some time ago. By the way, Princess Chu Zhen Qing and Bei Concubine Jing and Zhenxue, the two of them often come to visit."

Jia Heng nodded, and asked: "Zhen Qing didn't come to the house before, did she and her sister, Princess Bei Jing, go to the house frequently?"

Yuan Chun said: "It's okay, I see that Zhenxue and Keqing are getting along pretty well, and Xinxin is also quite fond of Yun girl and the others. Before coming, Xinxin even recognized her younger brother and sister as godmothers." , After a few days, my brother and sister will write a letter, and they should tell you about this matter."

As he spoke, he felt a little ashamed and flustered.

Brother and sister... Now she is lying in his arms, being teased, and then she said this, why is she so shameless?

Quickly changed the topic, and said with a somewhat solemn tone, "Brother Heng, Zhen Qing has always had scheming since she was a child, and I always feel that her intentions are unclear."

After all, she used to be a female historian in the palace, and she also saw that Zhen Qing had changed her lukewarm attitude towards Rongning's second residence in the past few years. Now she frequently visits the residence, and her purpose is not pure.

Jia Heng nodded, and said softly: "Don't worry, big sister, I will pay attention."

Said, lightly took Yuan Chun's snowy shoulders, put it on his lap, looked down at the blushing jade face, and said in a low voice: "Let's not talk about other people's business."

Yuan Chun let out a "huh" and stared at him. Jia Heng looked at him so condescendingly, especially when those scorching eyes stayed on his jade tiger necklace, he felt doubly ashamed. Wen Ning's beautiful eyes were watery, Her pink lips fluttered, and she was about to speak, but she said "uh", and her beautiful eyes with trembling and curved eyelashes slowly closed.

The warmth and softness of day and night thoughts approached, and Yi Ren was already paralyzed into mud.

Yuan Chun's jade face was slightly red, and he could not help but let out a soft hum from his nostrils. He gently stretched out his lotus arms to support Jia Heng's shoulders, and the gauze dress of the sleeve skirt immediately fell down, revealing a wrist as white and greasy as snow. Slightly chubby.

After a while, Jia Heng looked at Yuan Chun, whose beautiful eyes were full of autumn water and his face was dyed crimson, and said in a low voice, "You don't live in the same wing with Third Sister and Sister Yun, do you?"

Yuan Chun's eyes flickered, and he said in a trembling voice, "In the cabin next door, not in the same wing, Xiren is taking care of the two of them."

Jia Heng said softly: "That's good, wait a little while, so I can take care of Big Sister."

As he said that, he put one hand through Yuan Chun's knee, and walked towards the bed surrounded by curtains in the posture of a princess. It is easy to catch cold here, and when the weather is warmer...

Yuan Chun was startled at this moment, and called softly: "This..."

Hurriedly hugging Jia Heng's neck tightly with both hands, while speaking, he hid his hot cheeks in Jia Heng's arms, he was so ashamed to be hugged like this.

Jia Heng put down the curtain from the golden hook, and said softly: "These days, big sister has suffered a lot."

Before coming here, Lianxue had dismissed the servant girls, and now there was only one outside holding the piano to watch the wind.

Just when Jia Heng got into bed and was about to get busy, Yuan Chun's beautiful eyes widened, and with a grunt, he said in a trembling voice: "Brother Heng, I too...don't make it too late."

Jia Heng whispered: "It's okay, it's still early..."
