The eldest son of the red mansion

It was only at this time that Jia Zhi believed in the folklore that Jia Ke's timing for the army was very important.

And Jia Zhi came to Jia Ke to ask for information about what he wanted to practice in the army, and was soon passed on to Xue Baochai's Chengqian Palace by the little eunuch from the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Although Xue Baochai has not become a queen in the past few years, she has been in charge of Fengyin and is already the uncrowned queen in the palace.

Therefore, those little eunuchs did not keep secrets like Xue Baochai about these trivial matters that did not involve confidentiality.

After Xue Baochai heard about this, she thought about it. Jia Zhi was only in her teens, so she knew how to curry favor with Jia Ke and build a reputation for herself.

Did Jia Zhi come up with this on his own, or was there an expert behind him?

After all, in the previous dynasty, Jia Zhi had the highest prestige in seizing the heir. After all, he was the queen's heir and the emperor's eldest son. Although the queen has passed away now, his status is still natural, so he has a lot of advantages over others.

After Xue Baochai finished thinking about Jia Zhi, he thought about his son Jia Hui. Although Jia Hui was still young, his stubbornness was shown at a young age.

Just because of Jia Hui's education, Jia Ke has been angry with Xue Baochai several times.

But Xue Baochai thought that his son was only four or five years old, even if he was a little mischievous, it was just a child's disposition, so he didn't discipline him strictly.

Now that Xue Baochai thinks about it, it seems that Jia Hui can no longer be let go. Jia Zhi, who has no mother to take care of her, knows how to gain prestige and train in the army.

If Jia Hui continues like this, he will definitely lose Jia Ke's favor, and even if he has his own help, he will be nothing but an idle prince.

Xue Baochai was also a ruthless person. After she figured it out, she didn't delay any longer. That afternoon, she called Jia Hui to read and write. But Jia Hui refused, and she was immediately punished.

Xue Baochai's action soon alarmed Xue Baoqin who lived with him in Chengqian Palace.

Because Xue Baoqin has always been favored by Jia Ke for many years, now she also gave birth to a pair of little princes - Jia Long, King of Han.

Now this Jia Long is only one year old, at the age of acting like a baby in Xue Baoqin's arms.

Xue Baochai heard that her sister started restraining Jia Hui, so she hurried over to see why.

When I saw this, I saw that Jia Hui's hands were swollen by Xue Baochai, and he was wronged and read aloud there with a book of Analects.

And Xue Baochai sat on it seriously, staring at Jia Hui carefully.

Xue Baoqin saw the mother and the child, and it was a bit funny, so she hurried forward to greet Xue Baochai first, and then asked: "Sister, what's the matter? It was fine yesterday, why did you urge Jia Hui to read the book today?" coming?"

As soon as Jia Hui heard that someone came to intercede for him, she immediately sat there with bright eyes, twisting her buttocks from side to side, hoping that Xue Baochai's golden mouth would let him go out to play.

Unexpectedly, Xue Baochai gave Jia Hui a hard look, and Jia Hui immediately became honest.

After Xue Baochai stopped Jia Hui, she said to Xue Baoqin: "My sister may not know. Yesterday our eldest prince Jia Zhi actually went to the emperor, begging the emperor to let him practice in the army."

Xue Baoqin has stayed in the palace for a long time these years, and she is not as innocent as before.Now that Xue Baochai said that, he knew what Xue Baochai was worried about.

"If that's the case, then the eldest prince really has some scheming plans. He knows how to win fame for himself at a young age, and he also knows the importance of the army."

Xue Baochai smiled and said: "The current emperor started his career as an army, and Chu Wang Jiazhi also wants to follow suit. But he doesn't understand the current emperor's mind."

Xue Baoqin was a little curious after hearing this, "What's on our emperor's mind, sister tell me."

But Xue Baochai just shook his head, and immediately changed the subject, "We Jia Hui are very stubborn, but we are falling behind. You see, Jia Mao, the king of Wu, is only seven or eight years old, but he has already mastered the Analects of Confucius. His mother is illiterate, so it can be seen that this child is somewhat persistent."

Xue Baoqin also admired Xue Baochai when he heard about Jia Mao. This child had been studying with Jia Zhi in the study room since he was young.

Coupled with the support of the Empress Dowager Zhou behind Jia Mao, his prestige in the imperial court was no less than that of Jia Zhi.

Chapter 734 Breaking the Covenant

What Xue Baochai is thinking now is to take advantage of the fact that he is in charge of Fengyin and still has a certain right to speak in the harem, and try his best to strive for greater advantages for his son.

But if Jia Hui doesn't live up to it, even if she has all kinds of abilities, I'm afraid she can't change Jia Ke's mind.

So now Xue Baochai feels that Jia Hui can no longer be let go.

After Xue Baoqin listened to Xue Baochai's explanation, she finally understood the current situation. It seems that a new round of seizing the heir apparent is about to start again.

On the surface, Xue Baoqin persuaded Xue Baochai not to worry, but to guide her slowly.

But Xue Baoqin also has other thoughts in her heart now. In Xue Baoqin's mind, she is the most favored by Jia Ke now, and her son is also very loved by Jia Ke. Every time Jia Ke comes to Xue Baoqin, he will hug Xiao Xiao Jia Long made out with each other for a long time.

Since other people's sons are expected to inherit the throne, why not her Xue Baoqin's son?

There is another person who is concerned about this matter, and that is the Empress Dowager Zhou in the Compassionate Ning Palace.

It should be said that the Empress Dowager Zhou is now preoccupied with wanting Jia Mao, who grew up beside her, to inherit Jia Ke's lineage.

So the Empress Dowager Zhou can't say that she doesn't like the other princes in the palace, but the five fingers are not the same length.

So the Queen Mother Zhou was very dissatisfied when Jia Zhi went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation and asked Jia Ke to go to the army for training.

But Jia Zhi is also his grandson, and the Empress Dowager Zhou can't treat him differently, so he can only work harder and recommend Jia Hui desperately in front of Jia Ke.

And the undercurrent in the palace was raging, and Jia Ke soon discovered it.

After Jia Ke understood the truth of the matter, she wanted to laugh a little. She was only [-] years old, and with martial arts skills, she had a long life.

Unexpectedly, this is the case, and the princes and grandchildren below have already begun to think about who will be the emperor.

To say that Jia Ke is still generous, if you change your mind to be small-minded, you will wonder whether these people are all looking forward to my death.

Jia Ke didn't establish a crown prince back then because he was still young, and he didn't know how many years he would live in the future. Maybe these princes couldn't survive him.Unexpectedly, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop.

However, Jia Ke did not interfere with the struggle of these princes below, he also wanted to see which of these princes had the real ability.Although these older princes may not be able to inherit the throne in the end, Jia Ke also needs to carefully observe their dispositions, and he can put them in a useful position in the future, so that they don't know every day like the previous princes. Eating, drinking and having fun has become a useless person.

However, Jia Ke didn't pay much attention to these things, and after understanding the situation, he left them behind.

Now the most important thing in Jia Ke's mind is to conquer the Tatars in the north and completely solve their threat to the Central Plains.

Over the past few years, with more and more information about the Tatars, Jia Ke has also discovered that the strength of the Tatars has begun to recover rapidly.

After all, the Tatars have the support of the 36 countries in the Western Regions, and they are a nation on horseback, good at plundering. In the past few years, they have ceased fighting with the Central Plains, and the rear has been secured, which naturally gives them the opportunity to plunder elsewhere.

So the Tatars have once again regained the prestige of hundreds of thousands of armored and powerful in dozens of countries.

And because of the recovery of strength, Arslen Khan began to move around the Central Plains again.

For example, Jia Ke had just received a memorial. There was a tribe of Tatars. Thousands of people went straight to Shaanxi Town, plundered a large number of ordinary people, and then returned to the north.

After Jia Ke got the news, instead of being angry, his face was full of joy.

It’s really hard to find a place to go through the iron shoes, and it doesn’t take much effort to get it. Since the relationship between the Tatars and the Central Plains has been pretty good in recent years, although Jia Ke was thinking of finding an excuse to be sent to the Northern Expedition, he has been unable to start. Now the Tatars The man handed the handle of the knife to Jia Ke himself.

After Jia Ke received the memorial, he immediately ordered the border gate to stop all exchanges with the Tatars, and ordered all hands at the border gate to strengthen their vigilance. Once the Tatars invaded, they must give him a head-on blow.

At the same time, Jia Ke began to speed up the firearms equipment of the three major camps. Jia Ke's hope was to turn all the three major camps into firearms storage troops within half a year.
