Going through the Red Mansions quickly means going against the system.

"It's not difficult to name your family. There are many people who follow the king's footsteps."

The emperor took a sip of tea and began to drive away the people.

"Okay, I understand. Then I will ask people to go to your house to deliver gifts. Go back!"

"Yes, I would like to thank the emperor for the name."

Jia Zheng knelt down to thank him.

"When did I...that's all, what else do you have to do?"

This was an advantage, but the emperor was used to it.

The Mu Dynasty regarded itself as inheriting the state system of the previous Song Dynasty, so it also paid special attention to civil servants. Share the world with the scholar-bureaucrats. Those who are superior should be more considerate of their subjects. A little thing like naming is harmless, so I just accept it.

He originally thought that Jia Zheng was fine, but he didn't expect Jia Zheng to tell him that Lin Ruhai's son was sick and wanted to ask a national expert in pediatrics to treat him.

Lin Ruhai was also the courtier that the emperor had always liked. He looked at Jia Zheng and finally said he understood before sending Jia Zheng away.

"Your Majesty, please ask your servant to investigate..."

Xia Daban, the emperor's personal eunuch, saw that the emperor was in a daze and hurriedly came over to ask.

"Did he talk to Zi Teng for a long time when he came?"

"Yes, when the young eunuch went there, he did see him chatting with Mr. Wang. He seemed to be asking Mr. Wang to get off his horse and drink tea."

Eunuch Xia was the emperor's eyes and ears, and he was naturally well-informed. Before the emperor even asked what was going on, he was already clear.

As a ruler, what he fears most is the unity of the people below him, so whether he is the emperor or the emperor, he is very guarded against the people below him.

Only Ningrong and Rongfu were divided into the Supreme Emperor Faction and the Emperor Faction.

Just because these two families played tricks when lining up, they were disliked by the superiors.

The emperor would rather reuse peripheral figures such as Wang Ziteng and Lin Ruhai than reuse Jia Zheng, the leader of the aristocratic family.

It's not that Jia Zheng is not as promising as those two people, but that the emperor has to calculate which "tool" he wants to use.

But for today's matter, Jia Zheng undoubtedly came to surrender. Otherwise, he would not have come to the emperor to chat awkwardly. According to the original owner, a self-proclaimed noble man, he would definitely not be able to do it.

He can use it as soon as he catches it.

Although the emperor has no shortage of loyal talents, he also hopes that the more the better.

"My companion, please find a ship of the same type and send it to Jia Zheng!"

"Yes!"

After leaving the imperial city, Jia Zhengcai breathed a long sigh of relief.

The current emperor has only been in office for two years, but he is still very suspicious. Seeing the fate of his brothers, he became even more afraid of the Supreme Emperor.

The Emperor is better at playing with people's hearts than he is. The Emperor has experienced too many betrayals and has already developed conditioned reflexes.

Now that Jia Zheng suddenly showed his kindness, the emperor must think twice.

All Jia Zheng could do was give hints to the emperor. It is implied that he was gradually leaning towards the emperor because he was inspired by his brother-in-law and brother-in-law.

Fortunately, the original owner was a nerd before, with the arrogant and loyal character of a scholar. Jia Zheng would not make the emperor think left because of his sudden show of kindness.

Now the emperor can probably only guess that he wants something.

It's not that Jia Zheng couldn't find opportunities to make the relationship between the monarch and his ministers more natural, but firstly, there was no time, and secondly, Jia Zheng was not an alert person who knew what to do.

Not far away, Wang Ziteng followed.

"What does brother-in-law want from His Majesty? It's rare that you still know how to go out."

Wang Ziteng's tone was complaining.

When he first came to the capital, he and Jia Zheng were really close. Both of them were descendants of noble families and were in the same embarrassing situation.

Neither of them is the eldest son that the family focuses on cultivating, so they are not favored by the family.

But by mistake, they all took over the family's responsibility.

But after becoming parents, the two made different choices.

Wang Ziteng chose to go into battle lightly, and after the bet was successful, he worked hard alone.

He regards his family as a burden, and although he takes care of it in many ways, he does not put his family first.

He thought about winning over the original owner, but the original owner failed him.

The original owner cared more about his family. He was a "mama's boy" and felt that it was not easy for Jia's mother to raise him and his brother.

My brother couldn't make progress, so he thought more about his family, checked and filled in the gaps, and asked his mother to take care of herself.

In Wang Ziteng's view, this is foolish filial piety.

Why can't we have both loyalty and filial piety since ancient times? It's entirely because I don't know the trade-offs.

While you are young, you should do more and climb to higher positions. Once you reach a position where one person is lower than ten thousand people, you will naturally be able to protect your family.

The original owner was a scholar. His parents were here and his son did not travel far. Even if there is a follow-up message from You Biyoufang later, the original owner will not see it.

When he thought about it, he no longer had a father, only Jia Mu was an old man. His children are still young, so he cannot be too radical and worry his mother and young son.

But he was unwilling to give in, so he remained awkward.

"Don't you and your sister always tell me to make progress? Now I want to make progress too."

Now that there is no pressure to meet the saint, Jia Zheng can also joke a few words freely.

He and Wang Ziteng were not only brother-in-law and brother-in-law, but also close friends.

"Ha! Shouldn't you just be a coward? As I said before, you didn't get through serious scientific examinations, and you can't get to a high position by hard work. You have to rely on your niece, and you don't know what life you want to look forward to. It's better to make a difference on your own and recruit your descendants. "

Wang Ziteng laughed at himself: "Don't even think about us? If we didn't have such a good grandfather, where would our official career be?!"

Wang Ziteng also relied on the shadow of his ancestors to rise to power, but this is not a disadvantage.

This means that they are serious imperial sects. Counting from their grandfather, they have always been in the heart of the emperor.

Besides, he believed that he had real ability. He did not take the imperial examination to get scholars, which was to leave a channel for the real poor families.

How could the young master from their aristocratic family really get along with a mud-legged man?

"Yes, I'm not as smart as my brother-in-law. I've thought about it a long time ago."

Jia Zheng didn't refute him, he was absorbed in his own thoughts.

Now that Jia Huan has changed his name to Jia Jue, and the name was given by the emperor, it will definitely change his destiny this time, right?

The name is the shortest curse. After the emperor consecrates it, the hostility in Jia Jue will be reduced. Therefore, he no longer has to follow Jia Huan's old path.

"How did you think about it? Could it be that your little son also brought something out?"

Wang Ziteng approached Jia Zheng and carefully observed his brother-in-law who was different from before. He was really curious.

When Jia Zhu died, his brother-in-law didn't change his ambition. Now that his concubine gave birth to a son, he regretted it?

"...It is indeed related to Jue'er."

Jia Zheng decided to reveal future information to Wang Ziteng half-truth and half-falsely.

If you want to protect future generations, Baoyu's uncle is also crucial. If wars continue in the future, Wang Ziteng will definitely rise to the top like the original.

But if he continues to unconditionally favor his children and protect them like he did before, he will definitely not be able to escape the fate of having his home confiscated.

"Before the child was born, I dreamed that I was giving birth to a son. Because I was hoping that he would be Zhu'er when he came back, I gave him the name Jia Huan."

"The word "Huan" is pretty good, just like his brother... the homophony is really not good. Then it is called Jia Qiu. With so many words, it is not easy to name someone born from a concubine? Why do you need to find the emperor?"

Wang Ziteng wondered, "Who said that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger and telling people not to get close to the emperor? How can you slap yourself in the face now?"
