Chapter 531 Private Meeting in the Bamboo Forest

"Sister Qin, why are you looking at me like that?"

Zhen Qin kept staring, Yinglian was a little embarrassed, and finally I couldn't help but ask.

"Yinglian, you hid this matter from me, but you still have my sister in your eyes"

There is no doubt that Yinglian's pregnancy really stimulated her, and even Yu Rang Zhen Qin felt a little unbalanced.

"I didn't mean to hide it from my sister. I only found out about it today," Yinglian explained honestly.

However, Zhen Qin then asked, "We were all together, why did you take the first step?"

These words made Yinglian blush, secretly thinking how could those things be taken away? Come out and say it.

Yinglian was about to speak, but a girl came in from outside and reported, "Two ladies, the prince and princess are here."

Hearing this, Yinglian and his wife hurriedly greeted her. After going out, Zhu Jinghong and his two men had already entered the courtyard.

In addition to him, the guards all performed very hard, because they will represent the Ming Dynasty in wars with other countries.

Originally Zhen Qin wanted to follow her, but after hearing that the princess was speaking specifically to Yinglian, she still knelt on the ground.

Before Zhu Jinghong could speak, Baochai spoke first, "Get up, you are pregnant now, so don't keep these false etiquettes."

Everyone followed his words and walked all the way. After entering the room to talk, Keqing and others came over after a while.

"That's true. Thirteenth brother is very capable and can fight for his father's favor. Unlike us, who are shallow in learning and can only stay in the capital."

"Thirteenth brother said Yes, it's a pity that you don't play with us on weekdays." When Zhu Jinghao answered, he took the teacup from Yu Hai and handed it to Zhu Jinghong.

Zhu Jinghong had rested, but Baochai, who was pregnant, had no time to rest. After all, there were more human exchanges in the first month.

When Zhu Jinghong wiped his sweat and handed the towel to Zhu Jingchun, Zhu Jinghao on the other side had already brought a chair.

Although the emperor did not say that they must strive for first place, they still set this goal for themselves and worked hard in recent training.

Zhen Qin stood up and was about to speak when he heard Zhu Jinghong say, "Go in and talk if you have anything to say."

So for the next two days, he followed Baochai's suggestion and "rested." "After a while, the rain and dew also touched Keqing and others.

While Zhu Jingchun was speaking, Zhu Jinghong was thinking about the recent affairs in the court. The emperor was already re-electing the northwest governor.

The northwest seems to be hopeless. Maybe I can find a way to change the place. It is best not to go to Jinling if I can.

Zhu Jinghong has been worried about this matter for the past two days. I've thought about it, and I have a few vague ideas in my mind, but I haven't made up my mind yet.

Today we played polo, Zhu Jingchun and Zhu Jinghao also came to join in the fun, but their level was really poor.

In addition to Liaodong, he also wanted to go to Annan to quell the chaos. Now he finally made up his mind.

After making up his mind, Zhu Jinghong was suddenly inspired and came up with many ideas in a short period of time.

Baochai glanced over and said calmly, "Girl Qin, get up too."

"In addition to the navy in Liaodong, there is also the restless North Korea, and there are also There are too many things to make fuss about in the Japanese country where the sea is blocked."

However, they would never have thought that Zhu Jinghong was very upset at the moment, and it became even more annoying after hearing their chatter.

Taking the towel from Zhu Jingchun, Zhu Jinghong wiped his sweat and said, "You two still have to practice. You are going to get married soon. It's impossible not to be in good shape."

They were so attentive that they took away all the work of Yu Hai and other eunuchs, which made these people a little confused.

In a few days, the annual polo competition will be held again, and Zhu Jinghong can be regarded as training the guards in advance.

If they were not concerned about their status as county kings, the guards would have prevented them from even touching the ball.

"Liaodong is also building a navy, and it has improved greatly now. It makes sense to go to Liaodong to learn from experience," Zhu Jinghong thought in his heart.

Coincidentally, the few people left now, including Keqing and Zhenqin, are all elected servants, so that their priorities are basically equal.

It has been nearly three months since Chen Yuntai left for North Korea, and it is time to return with news

If nothing else happens, the candidate for governor will fall on Hou Xiaokang and Niu Jizong Among them, the former is now the governor of the former military governor's office, and the latter is the governor of the Chinese military governor's office.

Now that he is a prince, it seems inappropriate to go to the game in person, so he can only enjoy himself on the training ground.

As a result, getting pregnant as early as possible has become the biggest wish of a group of women.

"Meet the prince and princess"

In fact, it is not convenient for her now. She could have ordered her concubine to appear on her behalf. However, Yang Jingting is still "recuperating" in the palace, so Baochai only Able to appear in person.

A few more days passed, and she was also exhausted. The lower-ranking person behind her was already sick and disappeared.

Although he was upset, after all, there were beauties in the house, and Zhu Jinghong's mood would not be much worse if he competed for favors.

On the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month, Zhu Jinghong, who had "recovered", went to Shanglin Garden and summoned the Dragon Guards and a group of clan members to play polo.

Then where should we go? The old man asked me to build the Jinling Navy. I can only propose it for this reason.

Almost every day, married women come to visit. This is a good way to maintain relationships. When the time came, Baochai naturally wanted to meet him in person to show his respect.

Everyone present was deeply envious of Yinglian's pregnancy, especially Ke Qing, who was the first to enter the government.

In other words, the fight between the four of them will be fierce. Even the three Keqings, who are on good terms with each other, are still trying to compete with Zhu Jinghong when talking to them.

Taking the teacup, Zhu Jinghong took a sip to quench his thirst, and then said, "You guys, do you think I'm very idle?""

What was very strange was that at this moment he thought of welcoming the Spring Festival, because this girl was very quiet.

"Thirteenth Brother, Thirteenth Brother"

"Hmm"

"Brother Thirteen, I heard there is something interesting in Jinling. Don't forget to bring some for your younger brothers."

"For example, Yangzhou thin horse or something"

Seeing that these two guys had such bad moral character, Zhu Jinghong immediately scolded them to "get lost"

"Oh, yes"

After driving away these two guys with ulterior motives, Zhu Jinghong continued to think while sitting on the chair, but his eyes still fell on the polo field.

The guards are mostly from noble backgrounds, and they are all considered to be the proud sons of heaven. In addition, they have the important responsibility of guarding the prison. , They usually have a bit of arrogance.

However, in front of the clan disciples, these people's arrogance disappears, and they appear to be very reserved when playing.

There was no way, even if Zhu Jinghong and the two county princes were removed, the remaining people started out as generals of Zheng Er Fengguo, and their titles were so high that the guards did not dare to act rashly.

So the final result was that both sides were defeated. When the time was up, the battle ended in a happy ending.

Looking at the guards approaching, Zhu Jinghong glanced at the leader and said slowly, "Yuxin, you fought well. , it just happened to be a draw in the last few breaths."

At this time, Zhang Lin also replied, "The generals are still very powerful, and I managed to catch up with you."

Following that, Lu Yuxin also spoke. "Thirteenth Master, compared to sweating on the field, I would rather go to the battlefield and make achievements."

Lu Yuxin's words were actually a statement of his intentions.

There are about thirty people from Comrades Never Let Me Down. Except for him and Zhang Lin, who are still staying at the Dragon Guards, the last few people were sent to the Beijing camp at the beginning of the year and will soon go to the northwest to participate in the battle.

As for them. Last year, people like Hou Jing and Wang Jie were released, and they were promoted to two or three levels in just one year. I think they will be promoted to full-time positions this year.

Although they have more opportunities to stay in the Dragon Guard, they will receive better treatment. But that was the case in peaceful times. In today's changing era, one naturally rises faster on the battlefield.

And the most important thing is that if you want to reach the highest level of martial arts, you must have the ability. The more experience you have on the battlefield, the stronger your foundation will be when you are promoted later.

In the Dragon Guard, even if you are promoted to the rank of Commander of the Dragon Guard, you are only a fourth-grade military attaché. There are less than a thousand people in charge.

Although he is trusted by the emperor, this is the end of his life.

Zhu Jinghong understands the thoughts of these two people, but he cannot. He resolved their demands just because it was useful for him to have these two people stay in the palace.

Although the guards under the Dragon Imperial Guard are only fifty, they are in key positions because of their value. for himVery useful.

"Staying in the Dragon Guard to protect His Majesty's safety is also a service to the Ming Dynasty. Do you still have any complaints?"

"Besides, you two have weak foundations. First, stay in the Dragon Guard." Wei raises his level, and he will be promoted soon after he is released to the outside world. You should also understand this truth."

Zhu Jinghong said all the good things, and seeing that he was thinking about them, Lu Yuxin and Lu Yuxin also No more words.

Looking at the people from the clan who gathered around them, Lu Yuxin and the other two wisely stepped away, and then Zhu Jinghong started arguing with his relatives.

They are said to be relatives, but in fact, most of them are not familiar with Zhu Jinghong, and they are rarely seen a few times a year.

However, these people were very enthusiastic and tried their best to get involved with Zhu Jinghong. After all, it was a rare opportunity to lick him.

After chatting with everyone, Zhu Jinghong invited everyone to the banquet. He had ordered people to serve wine in the palace on the east side of the polo ground in advance.

The guards were also invited today. Zhu Jinghong was approachable at the banquet and once again gained the favor of many people.

When Zhu Jinghong returned to the palace, it was already afternoon.

After entering the palace, he was about to find Baochai to discuss his latest idea, but was told by Deng An that the princess was visiting guests.

"Didn't she say she had a two-day break, who was she going to see again?"

Zhu Jinghong's tone was dissatisfied, and he felt sorry for his wife.

"Reply to the prince, it's the Jia family who are here," Deng An replied.

"Oh, who is here?"

Feeling the change in Zhu Jinghong's tone, Deng An replied, "In reply to the prince, the two ladies of Rongguo Mansion, together with several people in the manor, The girl and their second mistress are all here."

"That's it."

Hooking his waist and following Zhu Jinghong, Deng An asked in a low voice, "Do you want to see the prince?"

Slowing down, Zhu Jinghong said slowly, "The women are talking to each other. I'm afraid it wouldn't be appropriate for me to meet them."

After all, the Jia family is related to the prince, so it is natural to meet them. It should be, so Zhu Jinghong didn't intend to disturb.

He then heard him say, "Forget it, I'd better go sit in the bamboo forest in the back garden."

After saying the last sentence, Zhu Jinghong quickened his pace and left, leaving Deng An exposed. The color of thinking.

It’s not appropriate, which means that the prince wanted to see him, and now he went to sit in the back garden, so what the prince meant was

After patting his forehead, Deng An understood Zhu Jinghong’s intention, so he thought Just made some calculations.

He is a careful person, so he knows that among the female relatives of the Jia family, Zhu Jinghong is attracted to Wang Xifeng and Jia Yingchun.

So now the question is, who should be brought to the back garden to meet, and what means should be used to achieve the goal.

After a brief calculation, Deng An identified Yingchun, saying that she would not attract attention because of her withdrawn personality, and she was the person Zhu Jinghong wanted to hook up with recently.

The reason for not choosing Wang Xifeng is also very simple. After all, this woman is a married woman. Deng AnjueZhu Jinghong may not still like him now.

After making up his mind, Deng An rushed towards Tongxin Hall.

He planned to sit back and wait for the rabbit first, because generally speaking, the Spring Festival would come out for some fresh air, and that was when he would take action.

And if Yingchun doesn't come out, he will also find a way to let the maid go in to send a message and find a reason to trick Yingchun out.

When he arrived outside Tongxin Hall, Deng An did not go in personally, but instead took pictures of his confidant eunuch.

After all, he has a special status. If he attracts too much attention after entering, things will be difficult to handle.

Fortunately, Yingchun did not disappoint Deng An. After she came out, she was caught up by the young eunuch, saying that the princess had something left for her, so Yingchun went with her to get it.

The reason was very good, not to mention that Yingchun would not resist in the first place, so she was brought out by the young eunuch.

Seeing Yingchun being led away, Deng An arranged for a small eunuch to guard outside the palace to cover up if anyone in the palace came out to look for her.

The three people involved in this incident all knew what they were doing, but they were all very happy to participate in it.

After all, doing this kind of thing for Zhu Jinghong is a kind of recognition for them, and they cannot do it unless they are one of their own.

After arranging these things, Deng An caught up with Yingchun, and then together with his confidant eunuch, he led the girl towards the back garden.

After walking for a while, Yingchun felt that something was wrong. Did she have to go and pick up the things the princess left for her?

Even if she had to pick them up, why bother leaving? Do they have any agenda in these hidden paths?

Do they want to do something evil?

When Yingchun became more and more frightened, she had been led to the back garden of the palace by two eunuchs. , at this time she was outside a bamboo forest.

"Girl, wait a moment, I'll be back soon."

After saying that, Deng An took his young eunuch and left, leaving Yingchun standing alone.

She waited for several minutes. She wanted to leave but did not dare to move, so she stayed in the cold wind and was messy.

She is such an honest girl. On the pavilion in the bamboo forest, Zhu Jinghong sighed.

He was originally looking forward to Wang Xifeng coming, but he did not expect that Deng An would bring Yingchun. Although he was disappointed, he could actually accept it.

And when he thought about it, he found that this feeling of "opening the blind box" was actually quite good.

Although he was unhappy because of Daiyu's incident some time ago, after a few days of "adjustment", Zhu Jinghong temporarily let go of the matter.

Letting go does not mean giving up. Bringing Daiyu into the house will be his long-term goal, so he will not refuse to enjoy it now.

After walking down the bamboo building, Zhu Jinghong took a detour and pretended to meet Yingchun accidentally.

"Miss Yingchun, why are you here?" Zhu Jinghong asked with a smile.

The location of the bamboo forest he chose is also a remote place in the back garden of the palace, and there are very few people on weekdays.Someone will come here.

Seeing Zhu Jinghong appear, Yingchun felt panicked at first, but immediately felt a sense of security.

With the Thirteenth Master here, the two eunuchs could not cause harm. Yingchun was secretly glad in her heart.

"I came out for some fresh air and got lost in the garden."

Yingchun didn't like to cause trouble, so he didn't reveal anything about Deng An, which saved Zhu Jinghong a lot of trouble.

For a moment, Zhu Jinghong replied, "That's it."

"The palace garden is very big. It's not easy for you to find this place. There is a bamboo building in the bamboo forest here, which is used for tea tasting." It’s a good place for viewing. Girls, do you want to go in and have a look?”

Since being opened by Zhu Jinghong last time, Yingchun is no longer afraid of him, but feels more close to him.

At this time, Zhu Jinghong invited him. Although Yingchun felt that it was inappropriate for a man and a woman to be alone, he did not refuse.
