The Red Mansions

Chapter 1682 Zhen Qing: This is clearly a repeat of the old trick.

Palace Garden, Palace——

On the bed with curtains all around, the fragrance of orchid and musk filled the air, almost making people intoxicated.

Jia Heng stretched out his hands and embraced the beautiful woman's plump and delicate body, gently stroking the plump and soft front of the beautiful woman, and the snowman changed between his palms and fingers.

Zhen Qing's face, which was graceful and gorgeous, was blushing like a rosy cloud. From under her delicate and straight nose, she breathed softly. She stroked Jia Heng's back with both hands. Her mind was immersed in it, and her delicate body was softening.

At this moment, Jia Heng moved closer to Zhen Xue's fair and flawless face, and approached her plump and slightly lips, trying to grab the sweetness.

Zhen Xue's plump and graceful body had already become as soft as a silkworm.

Jia Heng and Zhen Xue cuddled together for a while, and while they were talking, he embraced the beautiful woman's plump body and laid her down on the soft couch covered with a mattress. Then, he buried his head in the beautiful woman's clothes and rolled around in the fragrance of her rouge and powder.

After all, she was a plump, mature and charming beauty who had already breastfed a child. When I lay on her, I could smell a sweet fragrance flowing through my nostrils.

But in the palace, in a side hall, the blazing sunlight at noon shone through the window lattice onto the lacquered wooden high table, bringing a sense of lazy comfort.

Shui Xin was wearing a pink dress embroidered with lotus leaves. She had an elegant bun, a beautiful face, and a youthful appearance. She was sitting at a high table next to a wooden carved hollow window, holding a teacup in her slender hands.

Beneath the pair of emerald eyebrows that had inherited Zhen Xue's traits, in her bright and clear eyes, there seemed to be a dazed look.

In the blue and white porcelain teacup, the tea soup is clear and bright, as if reflecting the two peach-red lips, which are translucent, plump and tender.

"What is godfather talking to mother about right now?" Shui Xin stretched out a slender, white and tender hand, gently supported her chin, and thought.

Why don't you go take a look?
When this thought came to her mind, Shui Xin's eyelashes trembled and she couldn't help but blink her bright eyes. Thinking of this, she stood up and went outside.

A young and graceful girl is now walking along the palace with vermilion beams and pillars, like a beautiful butterfly.

Because it is summer, the heat is rising and the air is a little hot, but there are bursts of continuous cicada chirping on the paulownia trees.

Shui Xin tiptoed to the front of the bedroom, and just as she approached the bedroom, she heard a strange sound of stepping on water, accompanied by occasional panting sounds.

When Shui Xin heard the voice, she couldn't help but feel curious. She walked carefully to the side of the window and looked inside.

Shui Xin's heart couldn't help but tremble.

This...what are my aunt and mother doing with my godfather?
Shui Xin's face flushed, her heart was beating fast, and her bright eyes were filled with shock.

I just felt a "boom" in my head, and that flawless white face, with both sides as red as clouds and as bright as a peach.

At this moment, in the bedroom with curtains all around, Jia Heng sat on a bed, looking down at Zhen Qing and Zhen Xue who were serving him on his left and right.

They are both as charming and beautiful as they were back then.

Zhen Qing and Zhen Xue's cheeks were as red as smoke, and their beautiful, crystal clear eyes beneath their dainty eyebrows seemed to be permeated with waves of charm. When they spoke softly, their teeth, as fine as braided shells, were clearly crystal clear.

Under Jia Heng's sword-like brows, his eyes were deeply gazing at the lush green scenery outside the window, and his heart was thinking about the political situation.

The only opposition forces that could pose a threat to him now, apart from some civil officials lurking in the dark in the capital, were the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River and the royal families of the vassal states.

Let these people in Jiangnan "jump around" for a while first, lure out more opponents, and then wipe them out in one fell swoop.

Zhen Qing was busy now. She stood up and looked at the young man in the python costume with a seductive look. She said in a charming voice, "What are you thinking about? Why are you so absent-minded?"

Jia Heng turned away from his thoughts and looked at the beautiful woman whose eyes seemed to be about to burst into tears. He said, "I'm not thinking about anything. You two just serve here."

Jia Heng spoke softly, closing his eyes slightly, allowing Zhen Qing and Zhen Xue to manipulate him.

Shui Xin held her breath at this moment, quietly looking at the two flushed faces, which looked like a pair of twin lotus flowers. Her heart was trembling inexplicably and she could hardly control herself.

How could my aunt and mother act so foolishly? They were both serving one person.

And the godfather, he...

Shui Xin's mind was blank just now, and she didn't feel anything unusual. But at this moment, she just felt her heart beating wildly and her body going weak.

Jia Heng didn't notice anything unusual. He was enjoying the service of Zhen Qing and Zhen Xue, his eyes fixed on the curtains on the bed, his mind drifting away.

Shui Xin leaned down, moved closer to the window frame, and clearly peeked in for a while, feeling inexplicably frightened.

An unknown amount of time had passed before Shui Xin felt her eyes dry and her mouth dry. Her delicate body was like a ball of mud. She seemed not to dare to stay any longer, so she walked through the palace with carved beams and painted rafters and headed towards the side hall.

When she returned to the side hall, the little face, as white as snow, was already red, and her heart felt like it was beating in her throat.

Why do my aunt and mother act like that with my godfather?
Thinking of the scene just now where they were sometimes stacked up and sometimes side by side, Shui Xin's face turned red as clouds, and a hint of shame and anger appeared in her beautiful eyes.

Shui Xin reached out and picked up the blue and white porcelain teacup, lowered her head and took a sip, calming her slightly agitated emotions.

So, godfather, mother, and aunt... have been having an affair for a long time?

And judging from their posture just now, these three people have been together for a long time.

But does my father know about my mother’s situation?

My father probably doesn't know about this, otherwise he would have made a huge fuss.

Shui Xin's mind was in a mess. That rosy face was already burning hot, and her bright eyes were misty, as if water could drip out of them.

The cute little girl from back then has now grown into a grown-up girl who knows the world, not to mention the scene just now that had such a strong visual impact.

Shui Xin raised the teacup and took a few gulps. Her pounding heart finally calmed down.

On this side, Jia Heng was chatting with Zhen Qing and Zhen Xue.

Zhen Qing's narrow, clear eyes flickered slightly under her emerald eyebrows, and she said, "Is there a commotion in Jiangnan?"

Jia Heng gently put his arm around Zhen Qing's shoulders and said, "Hao Jiru and others in Jiangnan have supported the King of Wu and are preparing to rebel."

Zhen Qing was silent for a moment, then asked in surprise, "How can they rebel without any soldiers or generals?"

Jia Heng said softly, "Annan Hou Ye Zhen, lead the troops of the Jiangnan camp to help him succeed."

Zhen Qing asked, "Ye Zhen? How could he control the Jiangnan Camp? Didn't the Jiangnan Camp fall into your hands a long time ago?"

As Jia Heng spoke, he felt a surge of abundance flowing between his fingers and palms. Under Zhen Qing's annoyed gaze, he explained, "This is my plan."

Zhen Qing's flawless white face was covered with sweat, and her voice was soft and tender as she asked, "What do you mean?"

Does this bastard have some other conspiracy?
Jia Heng said coldly: "The gentry and princes of the royal family in Jiangnan have occupied the good farmland in Jiangnan and opposed the new policies of the imperial court. Not long ago, they spread rumors and slandered me."

Zhen Qing's eyebrows were as beautiful as emerald green, and her clear eyes seemed to show a look of sudden realization. She said, "So, this is another plan to lure the snake out of its hole?"

Zhen Xue listened quietly to the conversation between the two. Her snow-white face seemed covered with a layer of blush. Her slender hand stroked Jia Heng's waist.

Jia Heng said: "Annan Hou Ye Zhen, you obeyed my orders before and cooperated with the gentry in Jiangnan."

Zhen Qing was shocked when she heard this. She gritted her teeth and whispered, "It is true."

This bastard had asked Shanhai Hou Cao Bianjiao to cooperate with Li Zan and others in treason, which was why she killed her son Jie.

This is clearly a repeat of the old trick.

In fact, this is also something that Zhen Qing has figured out during this period. The purpose is to gradually eliminate the loyal ministers and generals who support the Chen Han clan.

Zhen Xue's plump and graceful body was soft as a ball, her snow-white face was flushed, and her crystal clear eyes were full of ripples.

Jia Heng said: "This is an opportunity to completely clean up the opposition forces in the Jiangnan officialdom."

Zhen Qing asked, "What do the Jiangnan people say?"

Jia Heng said in a low voice: "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. It's getting late, and I don't think Xinxin will get suspicious."

Xinxin is getting older and has become a grown-up girl.

Zhen Qing snorted softly, and said in a soft voice: "My body is very weak right now, it won't be too late to get up with my sister later."

Jia Heng hummed, propped up his strong arms, put on his dragon robe and shoes, walked out of the hall quickly, stood under the eaves, and looked at the sky with dark clouds rolling.

It was summer, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, as if a rainstorm was brewing.

At this moment, there was a "crackling" sound, lightning and thunder, and the originally dark sky turned bright white. In a moment, there was a crackling sound, and then the rain poured down, hitting the palace with pink walls and black tiles, and the palace was wet.

An evening breeze carrying an infinite sense of coolness blew in his face, shocking Jia Heng's heart.

Jia Heng calmed himself, walked into the rain with an umbrella, and quickly left the palace.

……

……

Ningguo Mansion, Grand View Garden, Xiaoxiang Pavilion

Daiyu has a plump figure. She stands in front of the window, gently stroking her bulging belly and gazing at the thousands of green bamboos. The sight of green everywhere makes people's heart move.

Zijuan came closer and said in a gentle voice with some concern, "Girl, don't let the wind blow you."

Daiyu's bright eyes sparkled under her beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows. She said softly, "It's been so hot these past few days. It's just right to cool down a bit."

Xiren was also standing by with a concerned look on her face. She said softly, "Miss, the fetus is important. It can't stand the slightest bit of wind."

Upon hearing this, Daiyu no longer insisted and turned around to sit on the couch. Her snow-white face was covered with a beautiful and moving blush.

"How is Sister Bao?" Daiyu asked, blinking her eyes that looked like sparkling stars under her trimmed eyebrows.

Zijuan said, "Miss, they are taking even more care in protecting the pregnancy over there."

At this moment, a maid outside showed a warm smile on her face and said, "The prince is here."

Daiyu chuckled, her eyes flickered, and she said softly, "I was just saying I was bored, but I didn't expect him to come right now."

As he was speaking, a young man in a green shirt and straight gown, with a heroic figure, fair face and elegant temperament, walked into the warm room.

"Sister Lin." Jia Heng called softly, and looking at Daiyu with a bulging belly, he felt a little strange in his heart.

Well, making the Immortal Crimson Pearl Herb pregnant with his child was quite an accomplishment for him.

Daiyu's eyes, bright as rainbows, sparkled under her emerald eyebrows. She asked, "Where did this come from, Brother Heng?"

Jia Heng said, "I came from the palace for nothing, I just came to see you."

Daiyu gently stroked her bulging belly, her eyes sparkling like stars with a hint of annoyance, and said jokingly: "Originally, there was nothing to do, so you came to see me."

Jia Heng looked at Daiyu with warm eyes and chuckled, "Sister Lin, what you said is true. I have come to see you every day during this period."

As he spoke, he walked quickly to Daiyu, hugged her delicate body, looked at her flawless face, and whispered, "Sister Lin, you have worked hard to take care of your pregnancy."

Daiyu snorted softly, stroking her slightly bulging belly. Her beautiful eyes, as clear as water, seemed to be moistened with soft waves. She said, "Apart from being a little bored, it's not that hard."

Jia Heng reached out and gently took Daiyu's slender hand, stared into her bright eyes, and asked, "Didn't Baoqin and Xiangyun come over to play with you?"

Daiyu bit her pink lips with her pearly teeth and said, "There is a bit of noise over there at Xiangyun's place."

Jia Heng smiled and said, "Sometimes you feel bored, sometimes you feel noisy. I really don't know what you want."

Under Daiyu's emerald eyebrows, her bright eyes were shining, reflecting the facial features of the young man in the python robe. She said, "I can't tell what I feel. Maybe I just miss you."

Jia Heng nodded, gently embraced Daiyu's plump and soft body, and said, "Sister Lin."

Daiyu always moved him silently.

Daiyu nestled her long black hair into Jia Heng's arms, happiness and sweetness showing on both sides of her snow-white face, and she murmured with a hint of infatuation: "In a few months, the baby should be born."

Jia Heng hummed softly, put his arm around Daiyu's shoulders, and whispered, "Yes, Sister Lin, have you decided on a name for your child?"

Daiyu's eyes, bright as rainbows, sparkled with dew under her smoky eyebrows, as if moistening the ripples of soft water. She said in surprise, "Isn't this the name that Brother Heng should give me?"

Jia Heng reached out and gently put his arm around Daiyu's shoulders, a warm smile appeared on his face, and he said, "I've been thinking about it."

Daiyu was silent for a moment, her sparkling eyes shining like rainbows, and she said, "From now on, you must choose a name with a good meaning."

Jia Heng smiled and said, "Sister Lin is very knowledgeable. Let's discuss it together when the time comes."

Upon hearing this, Daiyu said "hmm" softly, and lowered her starry eyes with curved eyelashes, enjoying the warmth for a moment.

Jia Heng immediately put his arm around Daiyu's shoulders. The two of them hugged each other, listening to the sound of rain hitting the lush green bamboo forest outside the window. At this moment, time seemed to be frozen forever.
