After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

Just like this, Jia Amnesty seemed to be very puzzled and annoyed at the gentle manipulation of the Xia family, and he didn't give Jia Jing a good look along the way.

After all, he is young and vigorous, and Jia Jing himself came from that time, so how could he not understand him?

If Jia Daishan was five or six years younger, Jia Jing would just let him go.

Anyway, when the time comes, he will naturally understand: things in this world are often not only black, white and gray, but also other richer and more unbearable colors.

But unfortunately, no matter whether it is Jia Daihua or Jia Daishan, the eldest son is the eldest son, and the reality does not give them time for the two heirs.

"Okay, don't be angry." After entering the study, Jia Jing waved the others away, poured him a cup of tea and pushed them over.

To Jia Jing's surprise, Jia She said, "I'm not angry with my brother, but with myself."

Jia Jing was surprised. Could it be that he was thinking wrong, but Jia Amnesty actually understood?

Facts have proved that this time, he was indeed wrong, and indeed underestimated Jia Amnesty.

Jia She said: "I am angry that I am not capable enough to share my brother's worries and let my brother get involved in such a dirty thing."

Actually, what did Jia Shen not understand?

It is easy to deal with the Xia family, but there will be no less troubles in the future.

Just like his mother Shi Shi.

He knew that she had poisoned him once, just to benefit his brother.

He even vaguely suspected that his grandmother's death had something to do with his mother.

But can he deal with Shi Shi?

he can not.

Not to mention anything else, just pressing down the word "filial piety" can make him breathless.

He didn't have such deep admiration for his mother, and he didn't think it was cost-effective to "injure the enemy a thousand, and hurt himself eight hundred".

Therefore, he could only bear with it and act as if he didn't know anything.

Jia Jing was very pleased, and patted Jia She on the shoulder: "Brother She has grown up."

Seeing that he was still unhappy, Jia Jing smiled and said, "As long as you and I are of the same mind, we will surely be able to protect the family for another hundred years. Such a little grievance, what is it?"

Jia She then laughed.

After everything was done, Jia Jing's leave had expired, so he went to the Ministry of War to sell his leave the next day.

Coming out of Chen Shangshu's office, Jia Jing took some files from previous years as usual, and prepared to take them back to his office to read.

This move is not for anything else, just to see how the seniors handle errands and accumulate some experience.

In case it is your turn one day, you will be in a hurry and don't know where to start.

But he didn't want to, when he came out with the file, he ran into the fourth prince.

The fourth prince smiled and said, "Lord Jia? What a coincidence."

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that the fourth prince's posture is obviously waiting for him.

Jia Jing was still holding the dossier in his hand, so he bent down and bowed: "I have seen the fourth prince."

——Since the fourth prince said it was a coincidence, then it was a coincidence.

The Fourth Prince took a deep look at him and asked, "How is Mr. Jia?"

Jia Jing didn't know what he was going to do again, but he replied cautiously: "Thank you for your concern, the fourth prince, everything is fine, I'm an official."

"That's good." The fourth prince smiled meaningfully, "I only hope that Master Jia will always be this good."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Jia Jing to reply, he turned his head and left.

Jia Jing found it very strange, fearing that he had some kind of conspiracy, he was cautious for a long time, but he didn't notice the fourth prince's movements at all.

——Could it be that he just wanted to scare me?But there are only those who can be thieves for a thousand days, how can there be those who can guard against thieves for a thousand days?

Thinking of this, Jia Jing decided to use soldiers to block him, and not to be entangled in the matter of the fourth prince.

But now, there is indeed a more important thing.

But on this day, Jia Daishan Muxiu led Jia Amnesty to the banquet at the invitation.

Before going out, Jia Daishan reminded him several times that this time the guest was a close relative of the Zhen family, Shi Lin who married Zhen Guozhong's concubine daughter, and told him not to be rude.

Jia She obediently agreed, as for what he was thinking, only he knew.

Shi Lin's banquet was held at Zuixianju, and there were not many people at the banquet. They were all middle-level officials who had recently attached themselves to the Ninth Prince, as well as their nephews.

In the middle of the banquet, Jia Daishan drank too much wine and was getting older, so he was unavoidably anxious, so he confessed his crime to everyone, and called a waiter to lead him to the latrine.

As for Jia Amnesty, he had already been force-fed to the point of dizziness.

As soon as Jia Daishan left, everyone's attention turned to him, and they persuaded him a few more drinks.

Jia She was young and tender-faced, so he couldn't refuse, so he tried his best to drink a few more glasses, lay down on the table, and fell unconscious.

Everyone was startled, but the host, Shi Lin, was the first to react: "Mr. Jia is so happy, he's drunk. Come on, let's help him lie behind the screen for a while to rest his mind, and then let Xiao Er serve a bowl of detoxification." Wine soup."

Others chimed in.

So, there were two teenagers who were about the same age as Jia She, supported him on the left and right, and helped him to Xiaoxie's soft couch behind the screen.

As soon as the two boys left, Jia Amnesty opened his eyes.

Although his face was flushed red, his eyes were clear, how could he be a bit drunk?

There is a kind of person in this world who always puts on his face when he drinks, but he is not easy to get drunk.

And Jia She is such a person.

He lay quietly on the couch, listening attentively to the conversation of the group of people outside.

Only one person said: "Young Master Shan, you are indeed extraordinary, and you really have successors."

The other laughed and said, "It's just that his family can last for a long time."

"That's right," another person said, "we made friends with the Rongguo Mansion, isn't it just to take advantage of the situation? Looking at the life expectancy of the generations of the Jia family, it is not known how old Rong Gong is. If there is an eventuality... or It’s safer for his heirs to compete.”

"..."

These few people talked to each other for a long time.

Shi Lin, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke up: "Mr. Rong's young master is a rough jade, but he is young after all. When he enters the court in the future, whether he can stand or not is another matter. The key is that he is as close as the current Ningguo Marquis." brother."

He kept talking to the point, and none of the people present were stupid, and they automatically filled in the unfinished words for him: If Jia She can use Jia Amnesty's hand to pull Jia Jing over, then it will be a big profit. .

Jia She, who was lying behind the screen, wanted to jump up and send them a word:

--Pooh!

It's just that you are following a prince who is free and doting. See if you can do it, you dare to attack me to respect elder brother.

Then, he felt angry for Jia Daishan: fortunately, the master is still thinking of finding a way out, and people don't really care about him.

And then, he smiled and narrowed his eyes: that's great, with the master's temper, if he knows what these people are up to, breaking off the relationship is certain.

Thinking of this, he fell asleep in peace.

When Jia She woke up again, he was already in his own bedroom.

He drank a bowl of hangover soup and found out that Jia Daishan was in the study, so he packed up and went to see his father.

Then, he recounted to his father the conversation he had heard while he was "half drunk and half awake" very objectively, absolutely without the slightest bit of hypocrisy.

My own son, I understand.

Although Jia Daishan suspected that his son was a lobbyist sent by Jia Jing, he could tell that Jia Amnesty could not make up these words.

It's not a day or two since he has been with these people, and just by listening to the habit of choosing words and making sentences, he can put these words into place and guess who said them.

Waving for Jia's amnesty, Jia Daishan fell into deep thought: These people are only interested in profit, if he dies early like his father and grandfather, I'm afraid they won't take care of their descendants at all.

Maybe it will suck the last drop of blood from Rongguo Mansion.

Half a month later, Jia Jing heard Jia Daishan take the initiative to reveal that he intended to marry the eldest daughter of Zhang Zhen, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, for Jia Amnesty.

Zhang Zhen is Zhang Chun's younger brother and also the uncle of His Highness the Crown Prince.Jia Daishan intended to marry the Zhang family, but he made up his mind and hanged himself on the tree of the crown prince.

Jia Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and decided to ask Jia She to go to Jinling to investigate the clansmen of the twelfth house after he formally engaged.

Firstly, to practice him, and secondly, he was shocked by what the Xia family did.

The Xia family dared to do such a thing under his nose, and the Jinling sky is high and the emperor is far away, the clansman over there will only be more courageous.

However, before he could make arrangements, a major event happened in Beijiang.

Here's the thing:

On this day, the prince called him into the East Palace in the name of appreciating strange stones, and told him that the little eunuch who was caught last time had found out who he was, and that he was a concubine.

Jia Jing suddenly understood: No wonder the Fourth Prince was acting strangely towards him for a long time, he thought he was planning some kind of conspiracy.

It turns out that people have already played it.

It's just that he, Jia Jing, was lucky and broke through halfway, which made him fall short.

However, there are so many people in the Ministry of War, and most of them come from honorable backgrounds, and most of them are not attracted by the fourth prince, why does the fourth prince have to spare such a big circle to deal with him?

The prince said: "It is not the fourth brother who intends to deal with you, but the third one. The fourth one is just pushing the boat with the current, thinking of helping the third one."

"Oh." Jia Jing nodded.

——If the third prince wanted to deal with him, then it would make sense.

With the third prince's resentment towards the prince, there is no reason at all to deal with him, the prince's dog.

The prince is also well aware of this.

But he was sure to save Jia Jing, and Jia Jing himself was not a good person, so the prince didn't take it seriously.

After talking about it casually, the prince revealed the main purpose of calling him today.

"Don't miss the recent court meeting, the north is not very peaceful."

Jia Jing didn't ask any more questions, but nodded to show that he understood.

His official position is a fourth-rank doctor, and he must attend the Grand Court on Shuowang Day. If he is not summoned, he is not eligible to participate in the Small Court Meeting.

But he still has the title of Super Marquis, so it's up to him whether he will go to the court or not.

Now, since the prince has spoken, Jia Jing will naturally not disappoint the prince's kindness.
