Chapter 683: The Attacking Princess Xiao

The Grand View Garden, Dicui Pavilion. The pavilion is in the water, with a corridor on all sides of the bridge. Walk straight from Qiushuangzhai and pass through Xiaoxiang Pavilion to the Dicui Pavilion. In March, in the artificial river, there are ducks and geese swimming in groups, and the "rattle" sound comes occasionally.

Jia Huan and Princess Yongqing Ning Xiao stood on the railing. The spring breeze came gently.

Jia Huan was just assigning after-class homework to two students in the study outside Beiyuan. Tanchun sent someone to invite him, saying that Princess Yongqing wanted to see him. Jia Huan and Princess Yongqing Ning Xiao had met him a long time ago, so there was no need to avoid it.

Ning Xiao wore a light green long skirt today, with an excellent body proportion. Her white and greasy face, big and bright phoenix eyes, straight nose, bright eyes and white teeth. It will give people an extremely stunning feeling. Jia Huan will still feel amazing after seeing her again after several months.

Ning Xiao held the railing and looked at the ducks in the river, sighed: "Mr. Jia, this garden in your house is really amazing. No wonder the concubine said that all the scenery in heaven and earth are available, and the name of the Yingxi Grand View of Fangyuan is not necessarily the case in the West Garden."

Jia Huan easily inferred that Ning Xiao came to Jia Mansion today as a lobbyist for King Ningke of Shu. In fact, he had no contact. He said quietly: "The princess is joking. How can it be compared with the royal atmosphere?"

Ning Xiao turned his head to look at Jia Huan, smiled slightly, and said, "Mr. Jia, you can guess my purpose with your intelligence. However, if a wise person has a thousand thoughts, there will be a mistake. If a fool has a thousand thoughts, there will be a gain. Mr. Jia, have you ever thought that if you refuse your brother Jiu to marry Tan's sister, it may anger Queen Yang?

On that day, you told Brother Jiu that you believe that Queen Yang has nothing to do with Prince Jia's death. But does your behavior look like you believe? If I were Queen Yang, I would definitely ask the emperor to find a mistake to kill you to prevent future troubles."

Ning Xiao's beautiful phoenix eyes stared at Jia Huan's face. Such a beautiful girl is as bright as a flower, but what she said at this time was a bit cruel and cold. It was a terrifying and shocking. She was worthy of being a princess who came from a royal family and liked politics.

Jia Huan's face was calm, ignoring Ning Xiao's gaze, looking at the bright spring river surface, on both sides, and said lightly: "Princess, it is either refusing to marry the King of Shu, or it is dissatisfied with Queen Yang. Both girls of the Zhen family married the prince, what is the result?

The closer you are to power, the more you will be hurt. I don’t want my third sister to suffer this. Of course, I thank you for your reminder.”

Jia Huan certainly distinguished whether Princess Yongqing was kind or malicious. If it was malicious, there was no need to say these words in front of him. As long as he said it a few more times in front of Queen Yang, his situation would be very dangerous.

Ning Xiao was silent for a moment.

Her heart was filled with frustration. She was not here to remind Jia Huan. She was here to lobby Jia Huan. Since then, she was 80% sure about Jia Huan’s siblings. As a result... Jia Huan gave another reasonable explanation for her "intimidation".

She had a feeling that she had made a move and was resolved by Jia Huan. If this was a court where the future was determined and life and death was determined, she might have been defeated. She had to continue learning and progress!

Jia Huan said: "Princess, you can't force emotional matters. It's not sweet to force melons. You probably think that you can help the King of Shu marry the woman he likes, and calmly let go of certain emotions. However, Princess, think from the perspective of others. If the King of Shu enthusiastically introduces your husband, would you be very happy?"

A hint of shame flashed across Ning Xiao's white oval's face, and she was speechless. Jia Huan's words came to her heart.

Jia Huan's words were very straightforward. Brother Jiu and her younger brother were friends and often played together. She and Brother Jiu became familiar with each other. Because they were both excellent, they had a good impression of each other. But this was a taboo. Therefore, she and Brother Jiu consciously cut off their thoughts. Brother Jiu moved to Jia Tanchun. It was difficult, but it was necessary.

She really wanted to help Brother Jiu marry the third lady of the Jia family with outstanding character. In this way, she felt at ease and could continue their lives.

But, as Jia Huan said, is Jiu Ge happy or bitter in her actions? Thinking from the perspective of others, the answer is obvious without asking.

Jia Huan waited for a while and finally said, "So, your best position in this matter should be to watch the wall. I welcome you to make friends with my third sister. But you are not welcome to come to our mansion to be a lobbyist."

He was in his thirties in his previous life. In terms of his views on feelings and maturity, both Ning Xiao were more than enough.

He was in a state of disgusting feelings between Ning Xiao and King Shu. How many people had a crush on their beautiful teachers in their school days? But what was wrong with this? As long as they did not break through the rules and put the thoughts in their minds into practice, they would do it.

Ning Xiao and the King of Shu were just traveling together often and did not cross the red line. Moreover, they were willing to stop the tacit understanding between the two. There was no need to blame her.

Ning Xiao was very arrogant. He acted neatly and sighed lightly and said, "Mr. Jia, I understand."

Jia Huan nodded.

If we use a more literary language, we can describe Ning Xiao’s half-day tour in Jia Mansion like this:

Princess Xiao, who attacked the girl, failed to persuade the girl to find a showdown with Jia Huan in the Dicui Pavilion. In the spring scenery of the green poplar grass, Princess Xiao used a sharp move: like a blade, like a mountain. Jia Huan blocked the front and shot a heart-piercing arrow. Princess Xiao was defeated and left. In this bright spring March, there was a platonic sadness.



In early March, after Jia Huan met Zhou Wumin from the Zhou family, he took his wife and concubine to Dongzhuang Town to go out for a walk on Miaofeng Mountain.

It is said to be outings, but it is actually more like avoiding suspicion.

Zhao Heling, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, scheduled to convene giant merchants arriving in Beijing on the second floor of Yunbin Building, Qipan Street on the sixth day of the third month to discuss the minting and issuance of silver coins.

The newspapers in the capital have been reported in succession, mobilizing the attention and expectations of people in the capital to the peak.



The night is rich.

Wei Hong, the Grand Secretary of the Wuying Palace, brought reading glasses and flipped through the newspapers brought by Zhao Heling, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, behind the desk.

Zhao Heling smiled bitterly and said, "Wei Zhongtang, look at this... The Truth Jue is followed. Those who are virtuous are not in harmony with the common people, and those who succeed are not in the crowd. If Wei Hanlin wants to say hello, please forget about the report from the Beijing and the small newspapers. Don't care about the Truth Jue."

Now newspapers in Beijing are repeatedly discussing: how to join forces with powerful merchants in the world to issue silver coins. List various advantages and disadvantages.

After putting together, the Ministry of Revenue's plan was really put out, which was not easy to carry out secret operations! For example, as far as he knew, Prime Minister Wei was planning to take a bite on the right to mint coins. The Wei family was born in Huating, Songjiang Prefecture, Su Song, but there are several prosperous areas in the world!

"Haha..." Wei Hong took off his glasses with a smile and said, "Yannian, Wei Zongguan is very public! Don't worry about him. Fang Wangxi's emperor Zhou Yinghua is about to finish his work. Wei Zongguan has made great contributions in writing books and is about to be promoted. Hua's relative editor-in-chief of the Truth, has his considerations."

Zhao Heling smiled and sighed, "He has a temper... Jia Ziyu is lazy and hides in Dongzhuang Town."

Wei Hong smiled and said again: "Have you talked to Jizichu?"

Ji Xingsheng, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Works, was in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of Works. His courtesy name was Zichu.



The light rain on the street is as moist as soft.

In the Xijiangyue Teahouse in Chongwenmen, Guangzhou Shangshang, the leader of the Thirteenth Trading Company, Wu Guanheng and his fellow villager Lu Chu, drink tea and listen to books.

Lu Chu, 29 years old, was the first in the Bingchen Academy examination and ranked first in the second class in the palace examination. He is now a Shujishi of the Hanlin Academy. His courtesy name is Shuhou, and he is from Shunde, Guangdong.

Simply put, Lu Huiyuan ranked fourth in the same year at the moment of Fei Zhuangyuan and his team. In the first place were Fei Zhuangyuan, Li Kuanli ranked second, Peng Jiao Peng Tanhua. He saw Xiao Mengzhen off at the south of the city that day, and he also went there.

Wu Guanheng was 67 years old, and was not very handsome. He was mean, with a sharp mouth and a horse face. In the elegant seat on the second floor, he listened to the clear sound of storytelling downstairs and commented: "Shuhou, is this the restaurant named by Jia Tanhua? It's interesting."

Lu Chu smiled and said, "Wu Shibo, there is a copper tube in the room, so you can hear it clearly."

Wu Guanheng nodded with a smile.

The meeting will be held at Yunbin Tower tomorrow. But Wu Guanheng is calm and composed. Because no matter what plan, Guangzhou businessmen must have a place. Otherwise, silver coins will not be able to pass through Lingnan.



At the same time, in the Jin merchant guild hall in the east of the city, the owners of the sixteen Jin merchant guilds gathered in the courtyard in the guild to negotiate. The sixteen Jin merchant guilds were divided into three factions according to the location of the general account. The nine Pingyao clique headed by Rishengchang were the most powerful. There are also three Taigu cliques and four Qixian cliques.
