All Heavens: Starting from Douluo

For the arrival of Lin Chaoci and his party, Rongguo Mansion expressed a high degree of welcome.

Jia She took action personally.

He took Jia Zheng, Jia Lian, Jia Baoyu, Jia Lan and others to welcome Lin Chaoci, the Duke of Pingguo.

On the female side, Mrs. Xing, who had been specially instructed by Jia She, came forward to stare at Mrs. Wang in order to interrupt Mrs. Wang's little thoughts.

Jia She knew this sister-in-law's character very well.

His sister-in-law is a spoiled child.

A bottomless pet.

But Jia Baoyu is still a waste.

Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue had the idea of ​​​​bringing Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai together at the beginning. He knew that Jia Baoyu, a good-for-nothing, would be moved by the sight of a beautiful girl. He also knew that if Jia Baoyu was asked to do something, even if Jia Baoyu Baoyu didn't have the chance to do it, but he just had that intention. With Lin Chaoci's courage to kill the Minister of Rites in the court in front of all the civil and military officials that day, the entire Rongguo Duke's palace would probably fall under the thunder.

Mrs. Wang is a self-righteous fool.

They thought that the power of their Wang family was equal to that of Lin Chaoci.

Especially Wang Ziteng, who has been in the cabinet recently.

In the entire Rongguo Mansion, only Lin Ruhai could hold down Wang Ziteng's head.

Lin Chaoci was just a Duke of Ping with no real power.

Xue Baochai is only the fiancée, not the Duke's wife.

Mrs. Wang, who is so stupid about eating fast and chanting Buddha's name, might actually dare to give Jia Baoyu, a loser, a chance to come into contact with Xue Baochai.

He knew Xue Baochai.

This is a very good housekeeper.

In terms of skill and ability, he is no less than Wang Xifeng.

Moreover, he is not as greedy for money as Wang Xifeng.

There will definitely be no contact with Jia Baoyu.

A good-for-nothing who cannot inherit Duke Rong, versus a self-made Duke Ping, or an immortal certified by Heaven himself as immortal, any normal person would know who to choose.

But in this back house, there are too many dark ways.

Whether Xue Baochai was able to guard against these open and hidden arrows was Xue Baochai's problem. What efforts he, the Rongguo Gong, made was a matter of his Rongguo Gong's attitude. If the old lady hadn't taken advantage of the good-for-nothing Jia Baoyu, she would have taken advantage of him. He grabbed Mrs. Wang, and if it weren't for the little traitor Wang Xifeng on his side, he would have killed Mrs. Wang long ago.

When it comes to the back house, he is not as good as the old lady.

That is Jia Mu.

The old lady was also a ruthless master back then.

It’s just that as I get older, my heart gradually softens.

Jia She thought this, but he didn't say what he was saying. After bringing Lin Chaoci into the palace, he first chatted with his legitimate sons Jia Zheng, Jia Lian, Jia Baoyu and Jia Lan. Jia Zheng talked about literati. Jia Lian talked about business, Jia Baoyu kept silent, Jia Lan said that he was preparing for the exam this year and preparing to take the exam next year, which is to test the children's students and scholars. In short, in Jia She's eyes, in addition to attracting Lin Chaoci's attention, Jia Lan said Get down to business, the other three are talking nonsense.

Finally found an excuse.

He took Lin Chaoci to his living room.

Jia She clapped her hands, and a maid came up immediately carrying tea.

"Nephew Lin Xian, give it a try."

"This is this year's new tea."

Since it was a conversation, not a celebration, naturally he could only drink tea but not alcohol. Jia She knew that Lin Chaoci was a resolute person, so he did not delay or be aggressive. After taking a sip of tea, he got straight to the point: " Nephew Lin, I have something important to talk to you about, and I also want to hear your opinions..."

Lin Chaoci had already anticipated what Jia She wanted to say.

He nodded and signaled Jia She to please speak.

Jia She was quietly surprised when he saw Lin Chaoci's calm expression. However, he fired his bow without any intention of turning back. After thinking about it for a moment, he showed his cards and said:

"Now, all the kings have come of age."

"Even if the Holy Dragon King is in good health, and even if Guo Zha extends his life, the incident of taking away the direct descendant will still happen again. And, rather, it is precisely because of Guo Zha extending his life that the incident of taking away the direct descendant will definitely happen again."

"Is there such a thing as a century-old prince in the world?"

"My Rongguo lineage and the Ningguo lineage have always been advancing and retreating together. As far as I know, the Ningguo lineage's Xichun seems to have been decided by the Holy One. She will be betrothed to you, and she will be chosen by you, nephew Lin Xian." Ning Guo’s lineage is perfect, so I feel more at ease.”

"In the last incident of seizing the legitimate rights, our Rongguo lineage and Ningguo lineage suffered a lot. Now, even the control of the Beijing camp has been lost. I have no intention of tainting the 400,000-strong army of the Beijing camp, no matter it is My body and bones, my connections with the Jia family, and my personal ignorance of troop formations and training, all make it impossible for me to take over the command of this 400,000-strong army."

"So, I never thought about it."

"However, the trend of seizing the direct descendants is back with a vengeance."

"I wonder if my nephew has such a good person in his eyes?"

Jia She is very smart.

The phrase "nephew" directly connected the relationship.

The matter of Xichun was brought up again.

It means we are a family after all.

Even if we don't count it from Xue Baochai's side, nor from the second room Jia Zheng's side, but only from Xichun's side, we are all one family.

The family does not speak two languages.

Give it to me.

Let me see who you support.

Or no one supports it and I haven’t thought about it yet.

Lin Chaoci lazily tested, spread his hands, and Jia She choked on a sentence and was speechless: "For an immortal like me, it's not who I fancy, but whose performance impresses me more. I don’t know how the kings are doing, I only know that Emperor Chongping treats me quite well, or in other words, none of the kings are as sincere as him.”

None of the kings were as sincere as him...

Even he is sincere...

There is no sincerity...

The smile on Jia She's face stiffened unconsciously.

From these few sentences, we deeply understand the gap.

He's still betting.

If you make the right bet, you will enjoy glory and wealth.

The bet was wrong and the whole family suffered a loss.

It turns out that people don't care about these little things at all.

I don't need to pledge at all.

Because I am half a banker.

However, only if Lin Chaoci, half of the banker, takes action, can Rongguo's line and Ningguo's lineage regain their glory: "The former prince's party is looking for me!"

"how?"

"They want to support a female emperor to ascend the throne?"

"Or push out a puppet?"

Lin Chaoci's tone was full of disdain, as if he had heard some joke, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "Don't forget, Qin Keqing's current position is very embarrassing. He wants people but no one, wants money but no money, wants background but no background, Emperor Chongping She is allowed to live a decent life because the Supreme Emperor took a step back, otherwise, she would have died when she married into the Ningguo Mansion!"

"But she can have kids!"

Jia She added quietly.

And after saying this, the conversation changed.

He added another outrageous sentence: "This child can be yours."

It has to be said that Jia She's answer is close to full marks.

But it could become zero at any time.

Lin Chaoci pondered for a while, and for the first time he was a little surprised by the past incident of seizing the legitimate son: "How unwilling are you to be persuaded by the White Lotus Sect to choose Qin Keqing, even at the cost of such a bargaining chip?"

"Not too unwilling."

"It's just that kings must seize the opportunity to take over."

"It's because no one pays attention to Qin Keqing."

"She is the best candidate to inherit the throne."

"We're just getting our stuff back."

Jia She's eyes were slightly distracted, and he seemed to see the high-spirited self many years ago, and the high-status Rongguo Duke: "Nephew Lin, I know that for you, no matter it is the throne or anything else, it is The moon in the flower in the mirror is not worth mentioning. Thousands of years later, you are still here, and the mountains and rivers thousands of miles away are still there. However, it is easy to add flowers to the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow. If the Rongguo lineage wants to revive again, it can only take a shortcut. …”
