Chapter 260: Appointment

Jia Lian didn’t know that just when Zhao Sheng told him what happened in Ningguo Mansion, a secret letter was quietly passed into the Daming Palace in the Forbidden City.

It was late at night, and Emperor Ning Kang was relaxing and reading in the imperial study, when he suddenly saw his confidant walking over, bending over.

"What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, there is a secret report from the Jin Yiwei."

Emperor Ning Kang didn't pay much attention to it. As the emperor, Jin Yiwei monitors the world. Eyes, countless reports are sent to the capital every day. After being screened and sent to his case, there will be some every day, so it is not too strange.

However, when he received the secret report and read it, a look of evil appeared on the already majestic Shen Jun face.

“What a bastard!”

…

The construction of the Grand View Garden was instigated by Jia Zheng, Jia Lian, Jia Zhen and others. Under the auspices, it was launched in full swing.

First, the Huifang Garden of Ningguo Prefecture, together with all the sites planned to build the garden, were surrounded by coarse cloth curtains to prevent excessive dust from escaping to the two mansions, and to prevent excessive dust from escaping to the two mansions. Irrelevant people move around at will.

Then the craftsmen, building materials, etc. in the early stage will enter in batches. The trenches were dug, roads were planned, and foundations were built. The project was in full swing, so much so that from morning to night every day, everything they saw and talked about became the garden's business.

And Jia Lian has already told his subordinates in the yamen that he will not go to Dian Mao in the morning every day, but if he has something to do, he will do it, and if there is nothing, he will return home as soon as possible.

If something unexpected happens, the Yamen will send someone to report it. The Yamen of the left and right soldiers and horses are also close to Ningrong Street, so there will be no delay.

Jia Zheng saw that Jia Lian had time to preside over the construction of the garden every day, so he simply handed over the power to him. As a result, the housekeepers and deacons working under him gradually only knew Jia Lian and not Jia Lian. Zheng and Jia Zhen.

When there are problems or problems, most people come to Jia Lian.

On this day, because there was nothing to do in the government office, Jia Lian went back to his house early, changed his clothes at home, and prepared to go into the garden.

"Second Master, we also want to go into the garden and have a look. Can you take us there..."

Qingwen held Xiangling in one hand and Jia Lian in the other. Arms, begged.

"Oh, what are you doing in there?"

Qingwen wanted to enter the garden out of curiosity.

Since she was a child, she had never seen such a big project, so she wanted to go in and see the excitement.

Secondly, it’s also because of boredom.

Jia Lian spent half of the day in the garden. The rest was mostly discussing matters with Jia Zheng and others, and he had very little time to go home.

But Jia Lian also won "freedom" for her and Xiang Ling. In the past, when there was nothing at home, it was better, and she could go and play with other maids and friends.

Now everyone is busy with the garden, and she can hardly find playmates.

Xiang Ling could still hide in the room, read and write, but she was pitiful and became a lonely ghost.

As for Xiangling...

She knew that Qingwen was afraid that she would be rejected by the second master alone, so she took her just to make up for it.

But she won’t be stupid enough to cause trouble, so it’s a good thing to follow the second master.

"We follow him in and we can serve him. For example, if he is tired from walking, we can find him a stool, bring him tea and water, or we can beat his legs and so on."

Qingwen is so smart, but I wouldn’t say she is too boring.

Jia Lian shook his head and laughed: "If you really want to go in and have a look, it's not impossible, but not today."

"Ah, why not today?"

Jia Lian did not answer them directly, but smiled and said: "Tomorrow, if you are free tomorrow, I will take you in for a walk.

But you'd better not be like today. You look so well dressed like this."

Qingwen and Xiangling were a little happy when they heard Jia Lian's agreement, but then they didn't know why and looked down at their clothes.

Jia Lian asked Jia Lian to use the palace brocade as a reward from the emperor last time to make clothes for the sisters at home. In the end, even Qingwen and Xiangling got one.

Because it is spring clothing, but now spring has passed. If you don’t put it on quickly, it will be difficult to get on top if you wait a little longer.

Although Wang Xifeng deliberately distinguished their two pieces from those of Daiyu, Yingchun and others, the workmanship was not as meticulous as those of the masters.

Even so, the fresh and bright material is unusually eye-catching, not to mention that it is extremely beautiful when worn on their slender bodies like theirs.

So, Qingwen and Xiangling looked at each other to make sure that Jia Lian was not saying something sarcastic, and quickly asked Jia Lian why he said that.

"Tomorrow you should find a pair of simple clothes from the old days to wear, otherwise I won't be able to take you into the garden.

You are naturally beautiful, No matter how brightly dressed I am, I'm afraid that the craftsmen wielding hoes will accidentally damage theIf you dig out the sole of your foot, then the two of you will be guilty. "

Only then did Qingwen and Xiangling realize that Jia Lian was praising their beauty. They were immediately ashamed and happy, and then laughed again.

"How could the second master say that? It's too much..."

"You know in your heart whether it's too much or not. "

Qingwen was elated by Jia Lian's words. She also saw Jia Lian lowering his head slightly and pointing to the side of his face.

Xiangling and Qingwen were immediately stunned. They became shy, of course they understood what Jia Lian meant.

They looked at each other, and then shyly, one of them kissed Jia Lian on one side of the face, not daring to pause for fear of being laughed at by the other party.

Jia Lian was satisfied and ready to leave.

“Second Master, wait a minute. "

Qingwen came up with her embroidered handkerchief and wiped away the faint lip marks on both sides of Jia Lian's lips. Then she pushed Jia Lian and said with a smile: "Second Master, go quickly and come back for dinner early. . ”

…

Come to the park and check the situation at various construction sites as usual.

The early projects mainly focused on the original This side of Huifangyuan is the part of Ningguo Mansion.

Although the weather is not too hot, working on the construction site is still very tiring. At this time, the role of the servants in the two mansions It’s time to send in.

Deliver water and food.

Even some light transportation work is done by the servants of the two houses.

People from both houses came together to shorten the construction period.

Naturally, Wang Xifeng and You were responsible for arranging these female laborers.

As for Huifangyuan, due to the divorce, Ningguo Mansion is nearby, so You family is mainly responsible for it.

Naturally, Jia Lian will not work in the fields himself. The reason why he goes to the garden every day is just to make this Jia Mansion The Grand View Garden that he worked hard to build was completely under his control.

Of course, understanding the specific affairs and preventing the servants from being greedy can also be regarded as a role.

After a round of inspection, I saw a girl walking across the original Huifang Bridge. She glanced at Jia Lian from afar across the riverbed where the water source had just been cut off, and then walked back calmly.

"Lin Zhixiao, you watch what's happening here, I'll go take a look over there. "

After giving Lin Zhixiao and others a few words, Jia Lian walked away as usual and came to the Tianxiang Tower.

Tianxiang Tower is the tallest and largest building in Huifang Garden.Jia Zhen was definitely reluctant to "donate" the building.

Therefore, when Jia Zheng and Jia Lian slashed from Huifang Garden, they only reached the foot of Tianxiang Tower, just to avoid causing Jia Zhen too much pain.

There was no one here, so Jia Lian walked up the stairs from the turret to the familiar room.

At the door of the room, the maid Yindie stood obediently on the corridor. She was not surprised when she saw Jia Lian coming. Instead, she bowed respectfully and opened the door curtain.

Jia Lian only nodded slightly to her and walked in.

In the fragrant room, separated by two screens, a beautiful woman was waiting for him inside the screens.
