After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

After only half a month after putting Jia Zheng in the East Courtyard, Shi couldn't bear it any longer. During a morning meeting, he mentioned that he was lonely for thousands of years and wanted his youngest son to move to the East Wing to comfort his loneliness.

Jia Zheng gritted his teeth.

Jia She sighed.

If it wasn't for Shi's crying that day, Jia Amnesty would have broken up with her and made it clear to her in fear of irritating her again.

Glancing at Jia Zheng, who was full of jealousy, Jia She said to his mother, "This matter is not in line with etiquette, so mother should stop mentioning it."

"Why is it unreasonable?" Shi Shi has been planning in his heart for a long time, why is it so easy to be persuaded?

She said unhappily: "Although your father has passed away, I am still a super-class Duke and wife. This Rongxi hall was originally built by Tai-zu himself for Duke Rong to live in. Now, I am the The most legitimate master here. I want my son to live with me, why?"

What she said was true.

Otherwise, Jia Amnesty wouldn't have cut off Jia Zheng's way to live in Rongxi Hall in a fit of anger that day.

But in this world there are rules of etiquette. Without Duke Rong, the Rongguo Mansion would not have the capital to trample on the rules of etiquette.

So, don't be too careful.

The Zhang family has always been in power in the family. No matter where they live in this house, the food is the best, and no one can short of them.

So, why should he gamble his future for a residence that only has symbolic significance?

Not worth it.

"Mother." Jia Amnesty's tone was a bit serious.

But seeing his mother's hurt expression, he finally softened his heart, and softened his voice again: "My son has some private things, and he wants to tell his mother."

——He knew that over the years, even though his mother had many faults, she devoted all her heart to him.Everyone in this house can blame her, but I am not qualified to do so.

After all, Shi loves Jia She the most, once her son's attitude softened, the grievance and anger in her heart disappeared, and she said to Jia Zheng and others: "Okay, you all go back, we will talk about this matter later."

Jia Zheng glanced at Jia Amnesty, wondering what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

But when Shi asked him to go out, he had to go out.

But after he went out, he didn't leave, but waited outside Rongxi Hall, wanting to know the result as soon as possible.

Within a quarter of an hour, Jia Amnesty came out.Seeing him, he bowed his hands and bowed to him: "Brother."

Jia Zheng stared at him coldly, and asked, "What exactly do you want?"

"What are you doing?" Jia She sneered, "Do you think that everyone has the same villainous heart as you?"

"You..." Jia Zheng was stabbed in the heart, and his face flushed red with annoyance.

Jia She gave him a contemptuous look and said, "Don't worry, I've convinced my wife that I still live in the West Courtyard. As for when you can get your wife to let you live in the Rongxi Hall, that depends on your own ability." gone."

Jia Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, but he said cautiously, "You are so kind? What is your purpose?"

Hearing such a question that exposed IQ, Jia She didn't bother to despise him anymore, and lazily said: "You guess it yourself." He bypassed him and walked straight away.

Jia Zheng frowned and stared at his back for a long time, but he didn't notice it until the end, and Jia She just dug another hole for him.

——Jia She said to let him figure out his own way, and asked his wife to give up the Rongxi Hall, which immediately replaced Jia Zheng's thinking on it.

In fact, if he wanted to live in Rongxi Hall now, it would be very easy.

Didn't Shi just say old age and loneliness?

He could use "accompanying his mother" as an excuse to live in the East Wing first.

As long as he occupies the East Wing first, even if Jia She repents later, he will lose his way to compete for Rongxi Hall.

After cheating Jia Zheng, Jia Amnesty went out to meet people.

If you want to be a celebrity, first, you need to have some extraordinary talent, and second, you need to have a wide range of contacts.

Jia Amnesty was still young, and it was time to accumulate contacts to support him, so how could he have the time to peck with Jia Zheng every day?

In the autumn of the 24th year of Tianqi, a major event suddenly happened in the court.

In the south of Qianxiang Kingdom, a new unified country appeared, named "New Song Dynasty".

Although its land area is not as large as Daxia, it is two or three times larger than Qianxiang Country.

The king of the New Song Dynasty sent envoys to the court, saying that he hoped to be canonized by the Great Xia court.

This is not surprising at all, those barbarian kingdoms come and go in spring and fall, and they change frequently, and small countries often enter the court and ask for canonization.

However, the envoys of the Xin Song Dynasty said that their queen was originally a citizen of Daxia.This time the envoy entered the court, in addition to requesting canonization, he also hoped to pick up his natal widow and niece.

This is strange.

The sage was also interested, and after careful questioning, he found out that the queen of the Xin Song Dynasty was originally the daughter of the royal family of Jinling.

The Wang family has always been in charge of the Shipping Department, but Daxia has banned the sea for many years, and the influence of the Wang family is naturally much weaker.

Now, the only member of the Wang family in power is Wang Ziteng, a doctor of the Ministry of Justice.

It is said that Wang Ziteng originally studied for the imperial examinations honestly, but a few years ago, Wang Zifu died suddenly, and he had to join the army in order to take over the power of his family.

But after he managed to get into the army, he was restrained everywhere.

He was not a fool, and soon realized that someone was targeting him.

After spending a lot of money on presents, he realized that it was Rong Guogong who had ordered him not to be allowed to develop in the army.

The prince was furious.

But what happened back then was the fault of the Wang family, no matter how angry he was, he had no choice but to bear it.

Then, he wiped his face, brought generous gifts to visit Rongguo Mansion, put on a posture of resignation, and beat and punished at will, just begging Jia Daishan to calm down.

It has been so many years, and Jia Amnesty and the Zhang family got along very well, and gave birth to grandchildren for him. Jia Daishan had long forgotten about the Wang family.

Seeing Wang Ziteng's posture at first, he was taken aback.It wasn't until Wang Ziteng explained the purpose of his visit that he suddenly realized, "Aren't you studying for the imperial examination? Why did you really develop in the army?"

Asking this question made Wang Ziteng, who thought he was targeted at him, feel like a punch in the cotton. He felt like a clown, thinking how important he was, but in fact, he was not taken seriously at all.

But he was able to bend and stretch, and he quickly adjusted his mentality: thinking about it, Duke Rong thought he was going to be an official in the imperial examination, but he only ordered him to be targeted in the army. mean.

It's just that people didn't expect that he had already passed the examination, but he suddenly joined the army.

Thinking of it this way, he felt much better and more at ease.

Then, he said with shame on his face: "From this point of view, it is my nephew who has saved the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."

Although the two of them were family friends, due to the events of that year, the two families have basically lost contact.

Now, he called himself little nephew, which obviously meant something close.

However, Jia Daishan is not the kind of person who grabs people's shortcoming and sticks to them. Wang Ziteng's posture is so low, his performance has gone down the stairs.

"Back then, the old man was only annoyed for a while, but now that I think about it, it's a big deal. Don't worry, nephew, the old man will order them to keep their faces down."

"Thank you Uncle Shi." Wang Ziteng was overjoyed.

It stands to reason that when the matter came to this, the purpose of Wang Ziteng's visit today would be achieved.

However, people are always greedy.

Especially people like Wang Ziteng, who are particularly enterprising, are even more aggressive and refuse to let go of the slightest opportunity.

Originally, he thought that Jia Daishan was deliberately targeting him because he remembered what happened in the past, so he just wanted to let Jia Daishan take out his anger on him and stop making people deliberately embarrass him.

But now, he knew that Jia Daishan didn't take what happened back then at all, that is, after he gave a casual order, he inevitably had other thoughts.

——Since the Jia family doesn't care about it, can we use the contacts of the Jia family?

His mind turned quickly.

The next generation of the Jia family, Jia Jing followed the path of a civil official, Jia Zheng seemed to be abolished at home, and Jia Amnesty saw his fame gradually rising, and he would definitely become a celebrity in the future.

Then, the Jia family's connections in the army are unnecessary.

If it is given to him, it is not a waste.

After thinking about this, Wang Ziteng left in no hurry, and talked with Jia Daishan for a while, and after deliberately showing his ambition and talent, he carefully revealed a little bit of his own meaning.

"Uncle Shi, our two families are also old relatives. Back then, the marriage between the two families failed, whether Wu Lun was my father or nephew, it was a great regret."

Jia Daishan glanced at him, not knowing why he suddenly brought up the old matter again, what was the reason for this matter that was destined to make him unhappy.

Wang Ziteng smiled and said: "Don't dare to lie to Uncle Shi, my eldest brother died, but left behind a widow and a pair of children. Although my niece has only just turned one year old, she was born cute as Yuxue, and she is quite intelligent."

At this point, Jia Daishan understood.

This is trying to bring up the matter of marriage again.

Although he has always been stubborn on the issue of "loyalty to the emperor" and couldn't turn a corner, but in other places, he is very clear.

Wang Ziteng brought up this matter at this time, for what purpose, he understood after a little thought.

——This is because of their Jia family's connections in the army.

However, he does not dislike such ambitious people.

In particular, Wang Ziteng's ambition is not fantasy, but has the ability to match it.

Furthermore, just as Wang Ziteng thought, the Jia family's connections in the military saw that no one would take over for the next generation.Rather than just being abandoned like this, it is better to find an in-law to entrust it to pay.

Now, since Wang Ziteng has the courage to recommend himself, he is not the kind of person who does not wait for the younger generation to have a chance.

Therefore, Jia Daishan asked with a smile: "The old man has two useless grandsons, which one does my nephew take a fancy to?"

If he could really let the prince choose, he would naturally prefer Jia Zhang.

Because Jia Zheng has been childless for many years, Jia Zhang is the real eldest grandson of Rongguo Mansion.In the future, everything in this mansion must belong to him.

But the biggest characteristic of Wang Ziteng is that he knows current affairs and knows himself.

He knew very well whether Wu Lun was Jia Zhang or Jia Lian. At present, he was the king's favorite.Rong Guogong was willing to let go, and it was already because of his talent.

If he really dared to push his nose in the face, although Jia Daishan would not turn his face immediately, he would really not be able to get along in the army.

So many thoughts flowed over, in fact, it was just a moment.

Wang Ziteng smiled as if nothing had happened: "The age difference between Zhang'er's nephew and my family's Feng'er is too big. If Uncle Shi doesn't dislike him, how about giving Lian'er's good nephew to my family's Feng'er?"

Jia Daishan smiled.
