The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Chapter 343 Men Need Sunscreen Too
"The servant is ordered by the princess to deliver fruit to General Jia."

Outside Jia Lian's camp, the maid who came all the way to ask was stopped by the guard at the door.

"give it to me."

A female voice suddenly appeared, which surprised the maid.

Looking up, it turned out that the two guards in armor and swords in front of him were actually dressed as women.

Women, can they also wear armor and serve as soldiers?

"Ok?"

"Oh fine."

The servant girl was a little regretful, originally thought that she could see this General Jia with her own eyes, and see how heroic he is, he can fascinate even our princess!
It was only when the female guard suddenly became suspicious that she reluctantly handed the plate to her.

Inside the tent, Jia Lian repacked the response to Miaoyu into the paper tube she sent and sealed it.

Looking up and seeing Ah Qin coming in with grapes, he asked, "Where did they come from?"

In front of Jia Lian, Ah Qin instantly regained her daughter's attitude, and said with a smile: "Master, these are the grapes that the princess has specially given you as a gift."

"Princess reward?"

Jia Lian was a little confused.

Glancing at the fruit Ah Qin put in front of her, she found that it was still air-conditioned.Out of curiosity, Jia Lian reached out and touched the bottom of the plate, but it was icy cold.

Obviously, it should have just been taken out of the ice mirror.

In such a hot weather, we are still on the road, so the preciousness of such iced fruits can be imagined.

As a result, Jia Lian's heart became more and more weird...

What does it mean to give him this?Grapes, there should be no other meaning, right?

Jia Lian, who had just tried his best to guess Miaoyu's thoughts, thought about it for a while, and then felt funny in his heart.

Princess Zhaoyang and Miaoyu must be different, the other party should just reward him with some fruit.

"Take this out and ask Zhang Yong to hand it over to that teacher."

"Yes."

Ah Qin took the order, but didn't move. Instead, she grabbed a grape from the plate and put it in her mouth with a smile.

Sensing Jia Lian's surprised gaze, she smiled and said, "Second Mistress specially instructed us last night that anything of unknown origin should not enter the mouth of adults.

People are following orders. "

Jia Lian smiled, it seems that Wang Xifeng's memory of Yang's incident was very deep.

However, can the things bestowed by the princess be called things of unknown origin?
Why not……

Jia Lian took a deep breath, sure enough women are the easiest way for men to let go of their guard.Even he is no exception.

Speaking of which, there is not much friendship between him and Princess Zhaoyang.On the contrary, there are some grievances!
But in his heart, he had a faint trust in Princess Zhaoyang!
Sometimes this kind of trust that is only based on feelings but not supported by facts may put yourself in a disadvantageous situation.

For example, so far he has not figured out why Princess Zhaoyang asked him to be the sending envoy.

After a little reflection in his heart, Jia Lian didn't say a word, and then took out a map from the side to observe.

Jia Lian was like this, Ah Qin was a little confused.

Are you angry?
Not much.

Suspicious in my heart, I didn't dare to do it again, got up and carried out the order.

After a while she came back and reported: "Zhao'er said, Mr. Xiang sent someone to send a carriage over just now, saying that it was specially for Mr. Xiang to use as a shade."

When Jia Lian heard the words and was about to refuse, she suddenly remembered that such hot weather would last at least half a month.

If you ride a horse all the way, if nothing else, your face will definitely be tanned, or even sunburned.

As a general, he naturally wanted to share weal and woe with the soldiers in order to increase his prestige.

But apart from prestige, his face is actually one of his most important assets!

If you don't cherish it and damage it at will, you will regret it in the future.

Among other things, a little nun like Miaoyu probably values ​​his appearance very much.

Therefore, a little darker is not afraid, it can also be said to be more majestic.But it can't be too dark.

"Since it was sent by Mr. Xiang, then accept it."

After replying, Jia Lian casually grabbed a grape and put it in his mouth, while continuing to study the road map.

Suddenly, there was a woman's unique breath. It turned out that Ah Qin turned around and walked to his side after cleaning his hands, peeled a grape and handed it to his mouth.

It can only be used for decoration, although the thin armor with no defensive power covers most of the woman's enchanting form, but the slightly exposed collarbone of the neck and ten slender fingers cannot be covered.

"No, you go out."

Being rejected by Jia Lian, Ah Qin suddenly showed a look of grievance, and looked at Jia Lian very sadly.

Jia Lian sighed helplessly: "Then, it's just serving food. Remember what you promised me before you left, don't be naughty, let alone deliberately seduce this general.

Otherwise, I will send someone to send you back. "

It's not that Jia Lian is hypocritical, he only planned to take Aqi with him.

The older sister, Aqi, is a taciturn and quick-witted person who can be said to be a good helper for home travel without any side effects.

But my sister is going to be a lot more naughty.

This trip is the most important image project, Jia Lian naturally does not want to cause unnecessary trouble because of a woman.

However, under Ah Qin's begging and promise, Jia Lian still reluctantly took her out.

"Ho ho." Ah Qin smiled, "Okay, okay, I will listen to the adults, and I will never dare to seduce the adults."

Therefore, Jia Lian enjoyed Ah Qin's service while doing business.

After a while, realizing that Xiao Nizi was trying to break the promise, Jia Lian rolled up the map with a big wave of his hand.

"Well, don't you want to eat?"

"Don't eat, the rest, you can share it with your sister."

With that said, Jia Lian strode out of the tent, called Zhang Yong and Zhao Sheng, and went to discuss matters with Xiang He and others.

……

Princess Zhaoyang's boudoir.

Princess Zhaoyang listened to the fourth prince's proposal quietly, and then looked at him, trying to see from the fourth prince's eyes whether he really had such absurd thoughts, or just talking for a while.

After seeing the fourth prince anxiously, she said calmly: "First, Jia Lian is in the camp of the Chinese army, surrounded by thousands of soldiers. With your 200 people alone, you want to attack the camp and tie him down." For him, the chance is less than one in a hundred.

Second, even if you acted carefully, all the guards under you were skilled in martial arts, and Jia Lian was tied up.

How can you send me away with him, and ensure that others will not suspect you?

Do you know that once you can't pick it out by yourself, even if you send us away, it will be futile.

At that time, do you know how severely you will be punished? "

When the fourth prince heard this, he wanted to say that he was not afraid.

Princess Zhaoyang has already seen through, "Even if you are not afraid of punishment, if the court threatens you or Jia Lian's family with life and death, when you say that, will we show up or not?

Third, even if you have great abilities, you can hide everything from others.

Are you sure that Jia Lian will be at your mercy?

Could it be that you want me to tie him hand and foot all the time to roam the rivers and lakes?

If he insists on not obeying, and even reports you and me to the court, so what should we do?
kill him?

fourth……"

The fourth prince was speechless when asked by Princess Zhaoyang, and he couldn't say any dirty words before the calm face of the imperial sister.

"Fourth, as the prince of the Great Wei Dynasty, you should put the interests of the country first in your actions.

Do you know that once you destroy the alliance between the imperial court and Oala this time, if Tatar, Oara, and many foreigners from the West Sea form a coalition to invade our dynasty, then, let alone you, even the emperor will also Because of this, he was blamed and criticized.

Therefore, such ignorant and stupid words can be said by ordinary people.You, the prince of the Great Wei Dynasty, can't tell.

In me, there is a mission that belongs to me.

And you, too. "

Princess Zhaoyang looked at her younger brother deeply, feeling a little worried about his future.

The father doesn't have many sons, so compared to the previous dynasty, each prince's attention is relatively high.

She could see that the reason why her younger brother went further and further on the road of being a dandy might not have been to express to the eldest and third brothers that he had no intention of being orthodox.

But since ancient times, the struggle for power and position in the Tian family has mostly been accompanied by blood and cruelty.

If there is no strategy, it is useless to blindly hide the stupid and guard the clumsiness.Maybe it's easier to be used by others and lose something that belongs to you.

even life.

What I regret is that even if she, the imperial sister, expected something, she would not be able to help him.
