Xue Pan's ear report came very quickly. After he had finished talking about the scene, and each had a banquet, a copper coin came to whisper to him about the second master Jia Jiabao.

Jia Baoyu originally wanted to follow Madam Wang to the inner courtyard, but was stopped by servants of the Xue family.Just a joke, I thought this was the Jia family. In addition to some relatives with the Jia family in the inner courtyard, there is also a girl from the Xu family who is coming. From now on, it will be his second grandmother. .

Jia's mother didn't want Baoyu to make trouble here, and now the Xue family is in the limelight, and even the order of a first-rank official's family has been shamed in his house. Jia's mother asked herself that the Jia family still doesn't have such a big face.

Baoyu went back to the front yard aggrieved, Jia Zheng was looking at him with a frown, so he had no choice but to go over to sit with his father honestly, not daring to say a word.Jia Zheng couldn't teach his son a lesson in someone else's house, so he just gave Baoyu a hard look as if he were an enemy, and Baoyu dared not say anything more.

Jia Amnesty slanted and sat on the chair beside him, slammed his fingers on the table, and said with a smile: "It's easy to come out loose and loose. Why do you scare him? See if you scare our Baoyu."

The two masters of the historian also laughed and said, "Cunzhou has always been a strict father, and Baoyu is just a child. Don't frighten him by Cunzhou." He also called Jia Lian, "Lien'er, take Baoyu and talk while you go." .”

Jia Zheng had no choice but to restrain himself a little, and Baoyu was pulled to the other side by Jia Lian.When the prince came in and saw each other, it was the elders who talked together, and Jia Lian took the younger ones.When Xue Pan came in, they were talking to each other.

Hearing Tong Qian'er's words, Xue Pan couldn't help laughing mockingly, Jia Baoyu was really used to it, and he dared to start a dyeing workshop after only giving him two points of color.

Xue Pan beckoned Lin Jue to come over, but Lin Jue was walking in front of the imperial court, but he came and went at his beck and call, it was really...

"Master Xue, what are your orders?" Lin Jue, who knew that he had betrayed his brother recently and had to humble himself, asked.

Xue Pan was very satisfied with his attitude, so he didn't care about him helping the emperor to plot against his brothers.

After talking about Jia Baoyu, Xue Pan said in a low voice, "What can you do?"

Lin Jue smiled, "Small punishment and big punishment?"

Xue Pan nodded.

The little friends looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent.

Heizi secretly kicked Xue Pan, and Xue Pan smiled and turned around, taking advantage of the cover of the tablecloth to rub against his muscular calf.

Lin Jue felt ashamed to look at Xue Pan's youthful expression, so she ran away.

Wang Ziteng looked around, and it was the first time that the members of the four major families got together relatively neatly.Among them, only his prince Teng has the most prominent official position, the highest rank, and the real power, which is in the heart of the emperor.For example, historians have two families, but they listen to glory, but they have no real power.Jia Zheng is only a fifth-rank official, and he hasn't made any progress after 20 years of hard work.Jia pardoned Jia Lian and his son, and they only had empty titles.If there are Wang Renbao, Yu Jiahuan and Jia Lan, they are still just students.

Looking at Xue's family again, although Xue Pan has no future prospects, he is lucky enough to pick someone home for nothing, and they are all relatives of the emperor. With this, he has jumped from a mere merchant to a little lord.Although this title is not obvious, it is also a false title, but it can't stand the low starting point.It used to be a duke's house, but now he only has a first-class general title, and he used to be a businessman, and now he has a last-class title, which one is better?

Looking at Xue Biao again, at a young age, he has already achieved a lot in his studies. Although he is not ranked first, he is also the first in the second list.Now that he is married to the Xu family again, with such an experienced father-in-law to support him, his future is boundless.And with the Ninth Prince, there is always some kind of incense.

Thinking carefully about the juniors of the four major families, Xue's came from behind and took the lead.Wang Ziteng also had to lament that good fortune has tricked people.

Wang Ziteng felt emotional for a while, and then Mu An, the second son of the Mu family of Dong'an County, the current deputy commander of the infantry, came to pay his respects.The relationship between the four major families and the four kings with different surnames has always been good, but this Mu An left home to join the army when he was young, and he was transferred back this year, so he is not very familiar with him.

Wang Ziteng received a salute from Mu An, and said with a smile, "Is your father well?"

This Dong'an County King is a mediocre person. He knew that he was not capable, so he only acted as a prince and resigned from the real power in charge of the army with the emperor.Therefore, although he has no real power, he has a lot of face in front of the emperor.

Mu An said with a smile: "It's just that I have some cold symptoms, it's not a serious problem, but I'm worried about other people's illness, so I have been resting at home these few days."

Wang Ziteng said: "It's fine as long as there is no serious problem. He has always been a donkey. If he refuses to allow us to visit him, he is determined to be a lonely minister." Wang Ziteng shook his head, dumbfounding: "Really..."

Mu An said: "Father has always been a bit strange, and he often made things difficult for mother. Fortunately, His Majesty is lenient and doesn't care about him."

Wang Ziteng also said: "Your Majesty has always been lenient, but it is also because of your father's loyalty. Now you and your elder brother are officials in the court. Although he has received extra favors from His Majesty, he is also worthy of hard work and is not a disappointment." Thank you for your grace. You have been promoted repeatedly in the army because of your achievements, and now you are transferred back to Beijing, and you have a bright future. I still have a bit of face in front of your current boss. If you have anything to do, you can come to my house to find me. The few of us are family friends, and as an uncle, I always have to take care of the younger generation."

Mu An bowed again, and said with a smile: "Although I have never paid a visit to the past uncle, I often hear Brother Xue mentioning you. My nephew knows that you have been loving and supporting the younger generation. Now I will pay my respects to the uncle first."

Wang Ziteng said: "Pan'er is also a good person, you play well together, and you often give him some advice. Don't be an outsider."

Mu An agreed with a smile.

Wang Ziteng summoned Wang Ren and the others to introduce him one by one, "You are the same generation, you should talk together."

Although they were of the same generation, Mu An was higher regardless of his wealth and status, so they all saluted him, and he returned the salute, and they went over to talk together.

In fact, there is not much to talk about, they are at different levels, and Mu An has no intention of making friends with them, so they just exchanged a few greetings and then went back to everyone.Wang Ziteng watched coldly, feeling more and more that the juniors of the several families were out of shape.A person like Mu An has already been in such a position at a young age, and his future is limitless.Regardless of family background and character, compared to the children of the same generation of Jia Shiwang's family, they are hundreds of sets better. If they have such a good meeting, they don't know how to take the initiative to make friends, and there will be a limit in the future.

Wang Ziteng couldn't help sighing that when he was appointed as a marquis and worshiped as a chancellor, Xue Jiaqing had to sacrifice all his wealth for his life, so he fell to the bottom.As for their family, the two are ranked as princes, and the Wang family is slightly worse, and they also hold titles.Looking at it now, it seems that the Xue family has a faint intention of coming from behind.And now, no matter whether it is Jane Zaidixin's prince or a young hero like Lin Jue Mu An, they all have good friends with the Xue family.On the other hand, Wang Ziteng can only shake his head and sigh when he looks at the characters that his own children are friends with.

The Shi brothers were chatting happily with Master Jiashe, but Jia Zheng couldn't intervene, so they had to drink tea blindly.Wang Ziteng knew his brother-in-law's temperament, and expressed his regret for Xue's father's untimely death once again from the bottom of his heart.If Father Xue was here, he would definitely not be so caring and speechless.

Wang Ziteng didn't even remember how many times he sighed. He always wanted to mention a few words about his brother-in-law.So he had no choice but to open his mouth and said: "I heard that the left servant of the Ministry of Industry resigned due to illness, and now several men are taking the position of the left servant. Did my brother-in-law visit Cao Lao's mansion?"

Jia Zheng said solemnly: "There are still four masters above me, Mr. Lang, and it's not my turn yet."

Jia Zheng has been in the position of Yuanwailang for 20 years, and he has done nothing, and can only be described as incompetent.Because he is a bit pedantic, he can't please the upper officials, and he can't get the respect of the lower officials, and he can't wait for the annual evaluation, so it is really difficult to get promoted.Although he can't be promoted, but because it is an official position rewarded by the emperor's golden mouth, he can only stay in this position forever, and it is difficult to move.

Wang Ziteng choked for a moment, but still persuaded him: "My brother-in-law has been in the position of Yuanwailang for some time, and now the position of Zuoshilang is vacant. If I can be replaced by the chief minister, then the position will be vacant, brother-in-law." It is also good to move up a little bit and move up a little bit."

However, Jia Zheng remained unmoved, and he couldn't be more upright, "Officials are evaluated and promoted by the official department. I am not very capable. I am in this position because I am blessed by the emperor's pity and ancestors. Where is it?" To be able to move these crooked thoughts and do such an unhealthy trend. I know that my brother-in-law is doing it for my own good, but if that's the only way, it's better not to mention it again. "

Wang Ziteng became more and more speechless. No wonder Jia Zheng stayed in this position for 20 years, and it seems that it would not be too much to stay another 50 years.Wang Ziteng couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, his good intentions made him a donkey.

Then look at Xue Pan who was talking and laughing with the Ninth Prince, everyone in the Qi family having a good time with Mu An, Lin Jue and others, and even the not so well-known Mei family's second son, all of them are much better than their own nephews.

Jia Lian used to be a somewhat thoughtful person, and Wang Ziteng also took good care of him, and even arranged for him to be a co-prefect.It's a pity that the mud can't support the wall, and it's only confined to the Jia family's square inch. He doesn't want a foreigner to earn a future, which is a waste of Wang Ziteng's thoughts.

At present, there are nine princes in terms of wealth, rich Xue family, and young heroes like Mu Anlin, Jue Xue Bian and Qi family brothers, which one is not worth making friends with?But Jia Lian only talked to Wang Renbaoyu's family members, and he didn't need to bother to please them.Others Jia Lianxu is not good at making connections, isn't there Lin Jue?That is the serious grandson of the Jia family, and the cousin of Jia Lian's direct cousin.It's a pity that Wang Ziteng heard that the relationship between Jia Lin and his family didn't seem to be very good.

Now that the Xue family is in the limelight, Wang Ziteng's wife has offended the Xue family, and she has to make up for it.They were relatives, so there was no such thing as face-saving. The Jia family's priority now was to quickly repair their relationship with the Lin family.Lin and Xue are relatives of the Jia family by marriage, and if the two families are on good terms, why should the Jia family push them away?

After all, it was the Jia family's business. He was a man surnamed Wang, and he couldn't control the man surnamed Jia.It's just that Wang Xifeng is his biological daughter and the only one under his knees, so it's inevitable that she needs to take care of her a little bit more.Looking at it now, Wang Ren is not a man to teach. If Jia Lian can be successful, his daughter's future can be guaranteed.

In fact, Wang Ziteng is in his prime, and it is not impossible to work hard in this officialdom for another ten or twenty years, but he has always felt a sense of powerlessness recently.After all, there is no legitimate son to inherit the family business, and his nephew is not good enough, so he doesn't know the meaning of his hard work.

Wang Ziteng has a clear understanding of the current situation of the four major families, and he feels a lot of powerlessness.
