Before leaving Beijing, Jia Huan once said to his beautiful wife Baochai: I am quite ashamed of being famous for years and that there are favors everywhere in the world.

This sentence is not a bragging.

This time he went to Jiangxi to draw portraits and took a job as an imperial envoy from Xuanwei Laos. He rushed all the way and did not stop in prefectures along the Grand Canal. However, he learned the news along the way, and there were still many officials who visited him. The identity of the editor-in-chief of the Truth is enough!

When the ship arrived in Yangzhou, Jia Huan had to stay for a day. Because, Sha Sheng, the right deputy censor stationed in Yangzhou, was his teacher.

In the afternoon, the sky was cloudy. At the Dongguan Wharf, Sha Sheng's aide, Shi Ye, He Yuanlong, and the judge of Chen Tong, Yangzhou Prefecture, the two salt merchants Wang and Ma, and the scholars of Yangzhou Prefecture welcomed him.

Even though Mr. Ning Ru was very happy to return home, he knew that he had to stay for a day today. He was patient and greeted the officials of Yangzhou Prefecture with Jia Huan.

This trip to Jiangxi is naturally led by Mr. Longjiang. However, Jia Huan is named an imperial envoy and is a fifth-rank official, and Mr. Longjiang has resigned. In terms of official positions, Jia Huan is led by Mr. Jia Huan.

A group of fifty or sixty people crossed the new city of Yangzhou to the governor's yamen. After drinking, the officials dispersed. Jia Huan and Sha Sheng went to Mr. Housha's study together to drink tea and talk.

The two of them sat down separately.

After not seeing each other for several years, Sha Sheng was still in a clean room. He changed into black casual clothes and sat on a wooden chair covered with mattresses. He reached out to signal Jia Huan to have tea and said with a smile: "I haven't seen each other for two years. Zi Yu is already a fifth-rank official. It shows that I was right back then." He sighed.

Jia Huan smiled and sighed to Mr. Sha for the past two years. Yangzhou, Jinling, and the mountain captain.

Late at night, Jia Huan returned to the inn and met Wang Heting, the head of the Wang family, and others. Then he became free.

…

…

The white frost at midnight solidifies in the eaves and tiles. The bright moon flows.

In a quiet courtyard in the inn, there is a bean oil lamp. Jia Huan stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, speechless for a long time.

He just learned the latest news from Mr. Sha: the Yuan Concubine gave birth to a prince on the tenth day of December.

As a governor, Mr. Sha naturally had his news channels in Beijing. It was impossible to rely solely on Judaism to understand the information of the court.

But, this news...

If Jia Yuanchun gave birth to a daughter, recovered her health, and won the favor of the emperor again, this would be the best result for the Jia family. However, from Jia Yuanchun's personal perspective, she certainly needed a son to rely on her for the rest of her life and could consolidate her status in the palace, rather than relying solely on the favor of the emperor.

So, Jia Huan never said that, he hoped that Yuanchun would give birth to a daughter the most. People cannot be so selfish that they say such things!

Yuanchun sacrificed a lot for the Jia family. She didn't like the palace. When visiting relatives, she called it a "shameful place". Furthermore, she threw away the identity of the emperor and the imperial concubine, and it was more blunt. A girl in her twenties was in her youth and was a concubine for an uncle in her forties. What's going on?

Needless to say more!

Before he left Beijing, he made some arrangements for the birth of the prince. On behalf of the Jia family, Jia Rong will give silver to several eunuchs in the palace, without asking for care for Jia Yuanchun and Prince Jia, at least not taking advantage of the situation. Concubine Zhou also has generous gifts.

King Beijing, I hope not to write a letter to Jia Yuanchun as the imperial concubine for the time being, and I will talk about it when he returns to Beijing. For example, Yuwenrui and Zhao Shilang, he communicated. On the newspaper side, he talked with Xiao Mengzhen, Pang Ze and others, and not to create momentum in public opinion and downplay it.

Arranged properly. However, the situation Jia Huan is facing now is more complicated. With the age of King Jin and King Chu, Prince Jia has no possibility of succeeding to the throne. But others may not think the same as him. People are not satisfied with their hearts and snakes swallow elephants. There are many variables.

The old Wuxun Group represented by the four kings and eight kings and other kings will promote Jia Yuanchun to the position of the imperial concubine. The next step is that four or five years later, it will definitely be the queen. Next, when Prince Jia is ten years old, it may be to promote participation in the battle for the throne.

These few steps must be accompanied by the cruel political struggles in the court. He worked hard to avoid participating in the battle for the throne, but unexpectedly, he eventually fell into this pit. Can he avoid Prince Jia's identity?

Even if he represented the Jia family ten years later, the Four Kings and Eight Officials Group announced that Prince Jia gave up the throne and seized the throne. Will the King of Jin and the King of Chu believe it? He will never believe it. This is politics.

Jia Huan sighed softly.

The road ahead is difficult, but the road is always something that people walk out. It is useless to think too much now. He is planning when he returns to Beijing. This is a five-year or ten-year plan.

What he was even more worried about was the woman waiting for him in Jinling. He had sent Qian Huai to Jinling to help him deliver a letter to Weiwei.

Jia Huan and Mr. Longjiang's ship would not stop in Jinling from the canal to the Yangtze River, but would directly go back to Jiujiang and then go to Guangxin Mansion by land. However, he wanted to contact Weiwei first. The imperial edict gave him a half-year deadline, and he would return to Jinling from Jiangxi at that time.

I haven't seen you for more than two years, are you okay? You are here to fulfill your promise.

…

…

Jinling. Qinhuai River, Wuding Bridge, He'an Street.

Jia Huan's Chang followed Qian Huan around Jia Huan. Daiyu's former residence in Jinling stopped at the entrance of the courtyard opposite the door and knocked on the door. However, the door was covered with dust.

A long time later, Qian Huai found out about the news from an old lady in the neighborhood: "That girl is tall and very beautiful. Well, she moved away. I don't know where she moved."

Qian Huai was unable to put away the letter and continued to go to the Zhang Mansion, Minister of Rites in Nanjing, Dagongfang.

A beautiful and graceful woman was walking along the street with her maid at the entrance of the alley, looking at Jia Huan's residence, which had only one gatekeeper, in the sunset. The golden sunset dragged her shadow very long, very long.

…

…

On the morning of the 24th, Jia Huan, Mr. Longjiang and his group of ten arrived at Jiujiang Prefecture.

It was the Little New Year, and Jiujiang City was very prosperous and lively. There were many restaurants on both sides of the street, and various shops or fires were opened. The street was filled with crowds.

The large water transport city like Jiujiang is built very spaciously. Jia Huan showed the imperial envoy's investigation. In the compliment of the postmaster, he entered a small courtyard after the postmaster.

After the placement was completed in the inn, Mr. Longjiang came to visit the east wing and said apologetically: "Ziyu, you are tired and you will follow me all the way. If you are still energetic, we will go out for a glass of wine. Next, the itinerary will be even more difficult."

It is definitely more difficult to ride a carriage than a boat. There are no springs to prevent shock. Mr. Longjiang's family is all following Butler Xu and still in the waterway. It is estimated that he had just arrived in Huai'an at this time.

Jia Huan was wiping his face with a towel and smiled and said, "Okay!"
Chapter completed!
