Chapter 239: The war is about to begin, leave the capital!
“This……”

Mu Dingjun suddenly came to his senses after being scolded by Mu Kangwen.

If it is really as he thought, I am afraid that after the Westerners are driven away, the Mu family merchant ships will go out to sea.

Jia Cong would directly charge them with piracy and clear them out.

But after hearing what Mu Kangwen said next, I felt a little confused.

“Dad, what do you mean?”

“This time, our Mu family, like Gong Shujia, will completely join the Jing’an Marquis!”

“The profits from maritime trade will be divided up by Marquis Jing’an, and we get as much as we want!”

Mu Kangwen gritted his teeth and spoke.

……

“Cong’er!”

In the Marquis of Jing’an’s Mansion, Baochai falls from the sky and turns into a human form.

She looked at Jia Cong with affectionate eyes.

Two years ago, Baochai, who was almost suffocating under the pressure of her family, could never have imagined that she would be where she is today.

In less than two years.

The daughter of a former imperial merchant has now grown into a terrifying being comparable to the fifth realm.

And all this is thanks to Jia Cong.

“Cong’er!”

After murmuring twice, Baochai could no longer suppress her emotions and threw herself directly into Jia Cong’s arms.

The cold dragon girl was held in his arms.

A refreshing fragrance penetrates into the nostrils.

Jia Cong thought about it, then reached out and hugged Lin Daiyu, who was pouting and looking a little jealous.

Unlike Baochai, Lin Daiyu’s body feels soft.

Being hugged like this, Daiyu’s resentment disappeared without a trace, leaving only sweetness and joy.

Baochai’s fate was changed by Jia Cong.

The same is true for Daiyu.

The sadness after Jia Min’s death and the danger Lin Ruhai faced when he was the Imperial Censor of Salt.

There was also the nervousness when I first entered the Rongguo Mansion.

I don’t know when these dark clouds began to hang over Daiyu’s heart.

Before they knew it, they had all been cleared away by Jia Cong.

……

“Sister Bao!”

“ah!”

At this moment, Shi Xiangyun’s exclamation was heard from outside the porch of the study courtyard.

Xiangyun covered her eyes with her hands, but she wished her fingers were separated directly!

See Baochai transform into a dragon in the sky.

Sichun, Xiangyun, Xing Xiuyan and other sisters at home hurried over.

Qin Keqing and Wang Xifeng, who happened to be guests there, also came along.

They have no worries about food and clothing, and the relationship between the sisters in the mansion is much closer than in the original novel.

But I didn’t expect to see the scene in front of me as soon as I entered the courtyard.

“Even if Sister Lin and Sister Bao are eager to marry Brother Cong, they still have to go through the three letters and six engagements.”

“How can there be such affection in broad daylight?”

Xiangyun is a lively person and she started teasing the three people directly.

Baochai’s personality was a bit cold, but Daiyu didn’t feel anything. However, she felt embarrassed and her cheeks turned red, and she was a little at a loss.

“If sister Xiangyun is interested, why don’t you prepare a dowry as well!”

“Anyway, with Cong’er’s family background, he won’t be afraid of not being able to support Sister Xiangyun in the future!”

Upon seeing this, Yingchun hurriedly took Daiyu’s hand and tried to smooth things over.

“Yes, our eldest marquis now holds two titles. If he makes more achievements in the future, it won’t be difficult to ask His Majesty to confer another title on Sister Xiangyun’s child.”

Wang Xifeng covered her mouth and chuckled.

Only Jia Cong would dare to say such bold words.

Shi Xiangyun never expected that the last fire would burn herself.

How could an unmarried girl tolerate such words? Her face immediately turned red with shame.

“Ah, Second Sister, Sister Feng, you are biased!” “Xiangyun, don’t be afraid, come to Big Sister. They are biased. I will take you to find Brother Cong to make the decision.”

Yuanchun put her arm around Xiangyun’s shoulders with a smile on her face.

He comforted her at first, but then he changed the subject: “We are all a family from now on!”

“Big sister, even you…”

Seeing Shi Xiangyun’s aggrieved look with a pursed mouth, laughter suddenly broke out in the courtyard.

Jia Cong asked Yuanyang to prepare the table, and they had lunch together at noon.

“Brother Cong, are you leaving Beijing?”

When they were almost done eating, Wang Xifeng put down her wine glass and suddenly spoke.

As soon as the words fell, the sisters looked at Jia Cong in surprise.

“Brother Cong, are you going on a long journey again?”

Yingchun’s hand trembled. Every time Jia Cong left the capital, he went out to fight and kill others.

Even if one was just reading the reports of victory from the Red Feather in the capital, one would know how dangerous it was.

“How did Sister Feng know?”

Jia Cong did not reply, but looked at Wang Xifeng instead.

In order to take care of Wang Xifeng’s feelings after Jia Lian’s death, everyone in the Marquis’s Mansion changed her name from “Second Sister-in-law” to “Sister Feng”.

“A large number of Western fleets have gathered in the southeastern sea, and the news has spread like wildfire in the capital.”

“Now that Sister Bao has transformed into a dragon, there is no one more suitable than Brother Cong to take charge.”

“Plus, Brother Cong started building warships in Jiangnan at the beginning of the year…”

Wang Xifeng lowered her head, slightly concealing the concern in her eyes.

“The imperial court has already started collecting food and fodder three months ago, and several naval forces are also being mobilized.”

“It should be within the next two or three days. Once the imperial edict comes down from the palace, we will have to leave the capital!”

Jia Cong nodded.

With the help of the mansion’s formation and various cultivation resources, the sisters in the family have begun to gradually break through to the second level of Xuanmen practice.

Wang Xifeng’s growth is even more eye-catching.

In the past, I only knew about some small calculations in the backyard and how to make some money.

Nowadays, we can analyze major events of the dynasty through various clues.

When they got together today, Jia Cong might have thought of having a small gathering with his sisters at home before leaving.

“Brother Cong, military affairs are dangerous, please be careful!”

Yingchun suppressed her worry and gave some advice.

“Don’t worry, Second Sister. Even if I can’t win, with Sister Bao here, it will be no problem for me to get out safely!”

Jia Cong nodded.

In fact, the situation is far from as simple as what I just said.

Once you leave the capital, the royal ban on the fifth realm will no longer apply!

The Kong family will definitely not miss this opportunity.

Plus the Westerners are watching closely.

“Brother Cong, I want to follow you this time too!” At this moment, Daiyu looked at Jia Cong with a firm gaze.

“Okay, no matter who is missing this time, Sister Lin won’t be missing.”

Lin Daiyu’s fighting ability was originally within Jia Cong’s calculations.

Although he had no experience in fighting others, the memories left behind by the residual soul in the Crimson Pearl Nether Grass contained many fighting methods.

There’s nothing to worry about.

The banquet ended in everyone’s silence.

The sisters were reluctant to leave and stayed in Tongxi Hall until nightfall before returning to their own courtyards.

On the third day of May, the innate god was promoted to the sixth rank of god, Baochai was completely transformed into a real dragon, and Daiyu’s strength was fully realized!
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, Mu Kangwen, Marquis of Dongping, came to visit, and the Mu family joined Jia Cong.

We have hundreds of warships and more than ten thousand sailors who are good at naval warfare!

On the fifth day, an edict was issued from the palace.

Jia Cong was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Canghai Road, in charge of the military and political affairs of the southeastern coast. He was ordered to leave the capital on a chosen day to look for an opportunity to fight and was responsible for expelling the Western fleet.

When the imperial edict was issued, the whole government was shocked.

The position of chief military commander has never appeared since the Tang Dynasty.

All the dignitaries in the capital were shocked by Emperor Shunde’s trust in Jia Cong.

Led by the six ministries of the cabinet, the huge machine of Daqian began to operate!
On the sixth day, Jia Cong led 800 of his personal soldiers, the Blood-Clothed Guards, and unified the elite troops of the Wanjing Camp to leave the capital!
