The Red Chamber: My Stunning Confidante with a Variety of Styles
Chapter 378 Recasting the Glory of the Jia Family
Rongguo Mansion, Rongxi Hall.
Xue Baochai, Lin Daiyu and a group of girls came to the inner hall of Rongxi Hall.
At this time, not only Mrs. Xing, but also Mrs. Wang and other women of the Jia family were here, as well as the women of the Xue family, the Shi family, and the Wang family.
"What happened?" After seeing the ceremony, Lin Daiyu asked hastily.
Mrs. Wang shook her head, and there was a trace of anxiety in her expression: "I don't know, Mr. Liu from the palace is here. He asked the old lady to call the men and in-laws of the clan to come, saying that there is something important to do."
The girls nodded and looked towards the front hall.
But I saw the main members of the four major families of Jia Shi Wang Xue gathered together, Jia Mu, Wang Ziteng, Jia Zheng, Jia Baoyu, Shi Ding, Xue Biao all gathered here.
Besides them, there are many elders of the Jia family.
But on the top seat, there are two people sitting, one of them is Liu Tian whom they often see, while the other is a dark-faced, very imposing old man.
"Mother, who is that?" Xue Baochai asked Aunt Xue.
"His name is Zhao Yi, he is the late emperor's brother, and he is the order of the clan's family." Aunt Xue explained.
The main responsibility of the Clan Mansion is to manage royal affairs.
All the girls showed surprise expressions, they didn't understand why Zhao Yi appeared here.
"It is said that the wife of the Mei family came just now?" Aunt Xue asked Xue Baochai.
Xue Baochai nodded: "Well, here she is, she wants to resume her engagement! I refused."
"It's really shameless! Where is she?" Aunt Xue scolded bitterly.
"She originally wanted to come in with us, but she was kicked out by sister Lin! It is said that she still lingered at the door, presumably because she wanted to see our jokes!" Xue Baoqin said angrily.
All the girls showed annoyed expressions, but then they all became worried again.
Liu Tian's sudden visit and the fact that he had summoned so many people made them feel uneasy.
You know, Liu Tian didn't do this when Jia Jue was promoted to a noble.
Could it be that something went wrong when Jia Jue was praying for blessings?
Liu Tian did carry the imperial decree, but he didn't know what was written in it.
Just when everyone was uneasy, Liu Tian looked at the sky, and then looked at Zhao Yi, both of them nodded tacitly.
Then, Liu Tian suddenly stood up and said to everyone:
"The auspicious time has come, everyone, please accept the order."
Everyone's heart skipped a beat, and they all knelt down.
Liu Tian glanced around the crowd, then unfolded the imperial decree and read aloud:
"I am waiting for Jia Jue with benevolence and perseverance, with noble conduct and outstanding virtues. I pray for blessings on my behalf, and I will be favored by God. The wind and snow will stop, the rain will be driven away, and the sky will be auspicious. He has both civil and military skills, and he is specially promoted to be the third-rank general political envoy of the Chief Secretary of the General Administration, promoted to the second-class noble, and bestowed the title of Rong Guogong! In addition, he is given silver tattoos, cloth and silk..."
No one continued to listen to the words that followed, because everyone was deeply shocked by the three words "Rong Guogong".
For a long time, Rong Guogong has been the glory of the Jia family, the foundation and reliance of the Jia family.
It is also the most important reason for the Jia family to enjoy all the glory and wealth.
However, with the death of Jia Daishan, although the Rongguo Mansion is still there, the title of Duke Rongguo is actually no longer owned by the Jia family.
But Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian's bastards let everyone know that "Rong Guogong" may not have a relationship with Jia's family within a hundred years.
What's even more embarrassing is that Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian died one after another, making "Rong Guogong" completely out of touch with Jia's family. After all, Xijue is going to be demoted.
If he wanted to regain the title of Duke Rong after being downgraded, he would have to start from scratch and start all over again.
Although Jia Jue repeatedly created miracles and became a marquis step by step, no one believed that he could get back the title of Duke Rong.
At that time, the Jia family was able to obtain the title of Rong Guogong because the Jia family followed the Zhao family's founding feats and made great contributions, so they won the title of "Guo Gong".
Yes, there are several types of "public", and the national public is the most respected among them!
This is the greatest honor the royal family can bestow on the Founding Fathers.
This is also the reason why many people are not optimistic about Jia Jue's ability to regain the title of "Duke of the State". Isn't it unusual for the founding of the country?
But who knows, today, Liu Tian suddenly brought an imperial decree, canonizing Jia Jue as "Duke Rongguo"!
This caused everyone to fall into a huge shock, not only the Jia family, but Wang Ziteng, Shi Ding and other in-laws were all dumbfounded.
Who would have expected that a young man who had not yet been crowned weak would become the Duke of the state!
He even regained the glory of the Jia family!
No, it's not about regaining it, it's about making the Jia family's glory even more dazzling.
Because, Jia Jue is the youngest Duke since the establishment of the Kingdom!
All the members of the Jia family blushed, their breathing was extremely rapid, and their eyes shone with excitement and joy. They knew very well what Jia Jue's return of the title of Duke Rong meant to the Jia family.
If this is true for the men of the Jia family, let alone the women of the Jia family.
Shock and ecstasy also appeared on their faces, even Madam Wang and Madam Xing were no exception to this point.
And Jia's mother was in tears, crying bitterly!
Originally, she thought that the Jia family lost the title of "Duke Rongguo" after all, and she lost the most precious thing of the Jia family.This is the biggest regret in her heart, a regret that cannot be made up for even if Jia Jue becomes Lord Marquis.
Countless times, she dreamed back at midnight, feeling ashamed of Jia Daishan.
However, today, this regret was eliminated by Jia Jue. Jia Jue took back the title of "Duke Rongguo" and the highest honor that belonged to the Jia family!
"Master! I finally have the face to see you! You have a good grandson!" Mother Jia prostrated herself on the ground, weeping uncontrollably.
At this time, she was already dead without regret.
Seeing this scene, all the female relatives burst into tears, both moved and proud.
Those girls who admired Jia Jue were full of surprises, while the girls who had nothing to do with Jia Jue were full of curiosity and admiration for Jia Jue.
Amid the excitement and joy of everyone, after the imperial decree was read out, Zhao Yi, the Zongren Mansion's magistrate, took out a sandalwood box and handed it to Mother Jia:
"Old lady, you should be familiar with this thing, right?"
With tears in her eyes, Mother Jia took it tremblingly: "I remember, this is the honor that only the Duke of the country can have."
Indeed, this is a special item only available to the Duke of the State. She had kept it back then, but after Jia Daishan passed away, it was taken away by the royal family.
But today, it returned to Jia's family again.
Under the curious eyes of everyone, Mother Jia slowly opened the box, and everyone looked at it quickly, but saw a pure gold token with intricate patterns carved on it, and two large characters engraved in it:
Don't die!
Everyone took a breath in unison. It turned out that this was the legend: the gold medal for avoiding death!
Xue Baochai, Lin Daiyu and a group of girls came to the inner hall of Rongxi Hall.
At this time, not only Mrs. Xing, but also Mrs. Wang and other women of the Jia family were here, as well as the women of the Xue family, the Shi family, and the Wang family.
