After entering the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Jia Lian saluted carefully and greeted him. The emperor in front of him was old and at the most irritable time. Everything in the past was not counted, but it could be extremely effective.

Now that Hu Xungui can live a decent life, isn't it because of his nostalgia?

And he, Jia Lian, happened to be the leader among the nobles, a clever little man.

The Holy Majesty who sits at the top also has complicated feelings for Jia Lian. He doesn't know whether to love him or scold him for not doing his job properly. Working with a eunuch, what can he do, but this eunuch can make him live comfortably.

Today's Rongguo Mansion is not as good as it used to be. The connections and money accumulated by the two generations of Rongguo Dukes will be ruined by the unfilial descendants of the mansion in a short time.

Fortunately, there was another Jia Lian who came forward and came to seek refuge in front of him in an upright manner. How could the Holy One not take pity on him? It must have taken a lot of hard work to become a talent under the oppression of so many bad-hearted elders.

Jia Lian, who was in his early twenties, was very well-born, and he was three points more eye-catching than Lin Ruhai at the beginning. The smile brought by nature made people feel comfortable. The Holy Majesty looked at it for a while, and then sighed slightly.

Once Jia Daishan begged him to protect Jia Amnesty, and later begged him to take care of Jia Zheng, but he was unable to do so, but now he wants to really protect his despised grandson.

But if you think about it carefully, Jia Daishan's vision is really not very good. He can lead soldiers and fight well, but the success of his offspring is too far away, and he can't even tell whether the child has any future. It is also sad to be fooled by a woman for most of his life Very, after all, someone who has never read a book.

The Holy Majesty was very kind to Jia Lian, even if he knew about the relationship between Jia Lian and Dai Quan, he was not prepared to expose it.

"Jia Lian, did your grandfather choose characters for you?"

Jia Lian shook his head, "My lord, my grandfather hasn't given the boy a character yet. The boy is still young, and my grandfather wants to wait for the boy to achieve something before he chooses a suitable character."

"Your grandfather said you were still young?" The Holy Majesty smiled, "Yes, your grandfather still regards you as a child at your age, even your father is still a child in his eyes, but you Grandfather is no longer alive, but you have grown up well, so I will choose a name for him."

Jia Lian suddenly prostrated himself on the ground exaggeratedly, "Thank you for your kindness, my grandfather may be so happy that the coffin cannot be covered, and he will be reincarnated to serve the Holy One again."

"You weird boy, you have a very sharp mouth. Why don't you see your father walking around more? Or it would be good to spend more time with your grandmother. Although your grandmother is old, she has contributed a lot to your Jia family. Even if you are biased, you have to be filial."

The Holy Majesty seems to attach great importance to the matter of filial piety. Even though he knew the current situation of Rongguo Mansion, he was still demanding Jia Lian. What he thought in his heart was also what he was most worried about.

Jia Lian was so obedient that he bowed again, "Thank you for your teaching, the boy also deeply agrees. Grandma can support the whole family when grandfather leaves home. How dare I not be filial? Even if the boy can have a bright future, he must Learn from your father and be a very filial person."

Jia She's foolish filial piety is the greatest advantage at this moment, because the Holy Majesty believes in Jia Lian's words, like father like son, the Holy Majesty thinks there is nothing wrong, Jia She can do ten, and Jia Lian can at least five. Besides, I have never heard of how Jia Lian dealt with the old lady of the Jia family.

"Well, being a filial person is the most basic thing. If you can't even do this, then you don't need to talk about sharing my worries. Speaking of which, you usually hear people say that you love to make money, and you can make money." Yinzi, will I send you to the money bank in Jiangnan, or will I arrange you in the household department?"

The Holy Majesty wanted Jia Lian to take over the mess left by Lin Ruhai, but after all, he was young and couldn't handle things, so he had to go through a lot of experience, and it would be best if he served in the household department or in various rich and noble counties, and he would be promoted quickly as he grew up. .

Jia Lian suddenly sat up straight, "If you go back to the emperor, the boy wants to serve in the northwest border, and find out the life of the military officers on the border. The Ministry of Households is the place where the boy wants to go, but not now. The boy is still a blank sheet of paper. I don’t know about the taxation of the army and the distribution of food and grass in the army, and I went there to look good, and I still want to be like my grandfather, to be loyal to the Holy One.”

"Are you going to the bitter cold place in the northwest?" The Holy Majesty was really surprised by this. Whoever wants to go to Beijing is so excited, but this kid wants to go to the most remote place.

Jia Lian laughed like a ghost at the moment, "The boy has the protection of the Holy One, so it shouldn't be difficult to go to Beijing, right. But the boy really wants to repay the kindness of the Holy One, my father always said that he is incapable and sorry for the Holy Spirit It is a kindness to bestow words, but it is strictly required that the boy must do it."

"Oh? Enhou still has this kind of heart? Doesn't he love his antique calligraphy and paintings the most?"

"Your Majesty, the boy's father said that loyalty should only be kept in the heart, and there is no need to overemphasize injustice. What one can do is better than what others say. The boy thinks this is very reasonable, so the boy is willing to go to the Northwest to experience hardships. Come and be a competent official for the Holy One."

After all, Jia Lian was so shameful that he smiled and acted cutely, seeing that the Holy One wanted to knock him on the head very much.

It's flattering from beginning to end, but it sounds pretty good.

Standing aside, Dai Quan rolled his eyes, Jia Lian was so far from the young and old under his influence, really thought he had never seen Jia Lian bullying others?

And that Jia Amnesty, how could he ever be looked down upon by Jia Lian, it would be nice if he didn't treat people like idiots.

Jia Lian did such a good job of saving face, even Dai Quan was quite convinced.

The Holy Majesty thought about it carefully for a while, and felt that there was no big problem. After all, Jia Lian was a civil servant. He couldn't join the army, and he couldn't lead the army. It's safe to go and safe to go back.

Moreover, the Holy Majesty really needs to know the situation on the border, to see how many soldiers are greedy for the merits of the soldiers, and how many people want to be emperors on the border. Seep in.

Regarding the matter of the prince meddling in military power, His Majesty obviously had some criticisms, so after Jia Lian proposed this idea, he agreed after a little thought, "Forget it, since you are loyal to serve me, then go ahead and do it, as long as you do well, I will reward you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty Long En, I am very grateful." Jia Lian's eyes were a little red, and he deliberately put on a bitter and finally granted expression, which made the Holy Majesty like him even more.

After Jia Lian walked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the Holy Majesty sent people down directly to select the officials Jia Lian could take up. He had just become a Jinshi, at most from the sixth rank. But seven grades only.

After returning to Rongguo Mansion, Jia Lian sat on the soft bed of Lixiangyuan and laughed happily.

Northwest, the place where the Rongguo Mansion made his fortune, he Jia Lian will be able to pass there one day. As long as he passes Jia Lian, what will Wang Ziteng do with him? Would his uncles and grandpas want to hang out with the Wang family?

Today's Wang Ziteng can't even take care of himself, how can he take care of his old buddies far away in the northwest?But Jia Lian can do it. As a civil servant, he stands behind the group of soldiers who are based on meritorious service, to see who dares to get credit for his body under his nose, to see who dares to pretend to be a Beijing official and then do things in the Northwest.

Jia Lian's original plan was indeed to enter the household department, but the third prince asked him for the first time to go to the northwest to rectify the border, could he not go?Thinking about the prince's iron-blooded family raiding style after he came to power, Jia Lian really didn't dare to mess around.

Since he can raise this matter, it shows that he has the heart to reorganize the border, but it is normal. If he can control the situation in the northwest, there will be nothing wrong with King Nan'an. He was thrown away, not only was he defeated and captured alive, but Tanchun and his relatives had to go to rescue him.

What made people laugh the most was that the next year the court defeated those bandits, and King Nan'an's face was slapped.

When Wang Xifeng came in from the outside, he saw him like this, "Master, did you get your wish?"

"Yes!" Jia Lian patted her side, "Is my second grandma Lian willing to take office with me? After leaving this Rongguo Mansion, you can do whatever you want, even if you wake up at three o'clock in the morning, no one will say What are you?"

"Grandma, of course I'm going, can I see you having a good time outside?" Wang Xifeng rolled her eyes and sat down beside him, "But the northwest is a place of bitter cold, grandma, I have to make good preparations, lest I be born beautiful Disfigured by the wind and sand there."

"Hehe, don't worry, we still have some money. Grandma, you are so bold that you can spend it. By the way, the third prince also asked us to have more contacts with the Zeng family. They love to sell private salt, and we can help you buy it." Go abroad, where there are plenty of cattle, sheep and horses, but this is the most lacking.”

"Private salt? Do we want to get some other things too? Like tea, tobacco and so on, don't they have some in Jiangnan?"

"It's enough to get a piece of salt. We can't mix with the Zeng family regardless of you and me. What the third prince means is to use salt to provoke the infighting among the barbarians. I heard that all powerful tribes have a lot of salt. Eating salt can give them strength, as long as they are energetic, sooner or later they will fight among themselves.”

"Well, the affairs of the Zeng family are easy to handle. Anyway, they are old friends, but you can't hide the fact that you were admitted to the Jinshi, Er Ye. People from the Wang family have written. The old lady should already know by now, but, I probably don't know your plan yet."

Jia Lian smiled slightly, "Although I failed to get a good official position this time, this does not prevent the Lord from frightening them. The Holy One loves filial people the most. These days, the Lord should greet the old lady well. , and my second uncle, he should have more contact with him, a man in the officialdom."

"What kind of man is he in the officialdom, second master, please stop teasing him. If you don't go to the government for three days, it's because of the face of your ancestors that people can bear him. If it's me, I will give him one next year." Poor, let him downgrade directly."

"The more he is like this, the more I have to laugh at him. Otherwise, how can I show my ability? The 20-year-old Jinshi doesn't look very good, but the master has only been studying for three years, and he is better than Jia Zhu. too much."

Jia Lian's smug look made people laugh, but the more this person is like this, the more Wang Xifeng loves him, "Second Master, you are amazing, you will be really amazing when you stand on top of my uncle someday, by the way , Did you tell King Beijing Jing about Yingchun's marriage?"

Jia Lian nodded, "As I said, it should be soon. Those people are never in a hurry to do things. They have to think carefully before doing things. When they do it, they don't want to be too deliberate, so as not to make people suspicious. Take Yingchun tomorrow. Worship the Buddha in a temple outside the city, and just promise me to fulfill your vow, that should be enough reason.”

When Wang Xifeng agreed to this matter, Jia Lian wrote another letter to the Beijing Palace, and told him all about today's affairs.

But at this moment, the entire Rongqing hall was filled with an unspeakable depression, the old lady was holding the letter from Mrs. Wang, and her head was throbbing from reading it.

Jia Lian actually got admitted to the Jinshi in secret, and that useless trash was admitted to the Jinshi. Don't say that the old lady didn't believe it, who would believe it? When Jia Zhu was still there, he couldn't even pass the exam as a scholar.

But can this be called his luck?Jia Lian went all the way from a scholar to a Jinshi, and returned to the capital from the south of the Yangtze River. Can it be said that he has no real skills?

Jia Lian, who has shrunk for too long, seems to be gradually forgotten by others, but when he reappears, it is very uncomfortable.

As for who is the most dispirited person in the family, it is without a doubt Jia Zheng and Jia She. After learning about this, these two brothers all stayed behind closed doors, drinking and paying for crimes, which was obviously unacceptable.

But the facts are in front of you, does it matter whether they agree or not?

In the early morning of the second day, Jia Lian dressed up brightly and happily followed Wang Xifeng to pay her respects. The old lady got up very early today, as if she was waiting for them.

And would Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng still be afraid now?

Even Wang Xifeng couldn't save the depressed Rongqingtang, the old lady's mean face made people dissatisfied.

"Jia Lian, you are so brave. You didn't even tell your family about such a big matter as the imperial examination. Do you still have Rongguo Mansion and my grandmother in your eyes?"
