Aristocratic family's career in the Red Chamber

Jia Jing waited for a few days, and the Rongguo Mansion was as exciting and lively as singing a big drama. The servants who watched over there came back and said that Mother Jia had been making trouble since she woke up, threatening Jia's amnesty for some, emotional for Jia's amnesty for some, Convincing Jia Amnesty to do it, she tried her best. In the past, Jia Amnesty would have raised her hand and surrendered to Jia Mu long ago. At that time, Jia Amnesty stood still, only saying that he wanted to separate the family.

Jia's mother made such a fuss that it almost turned the Rongguo Mansion upside down, but Jia Amnesty was also ruthless. Those people holding the ears of wheat turned back and threatened Jia's mother.I want everyone to see what is going on between the mother, son and brothers in the Rongguo Mansion.

For such a tough Jia Amnesty, Jia's mother can only give in - Jia Amnesty is shameless, but she still wants to, if her relatives and friends know that she is plotting against her own son, she will really lose her head after returning.

When Xu talked to Jia Jing behind his back, he was always amazed: "I really didn't expect that Enhou would have such a tough day."

Jia Jing glanced at her, but didn't tell her that Jia Amnesty was not just tough with Jia's mother, he was now the same as before, part-time job is like a different person, and he also made a pen with him to support and help Ningguo Mansion after inheriting the title. What about the deal.Jia Amnesty, who used to be easy to negotiate, tsk tsk, seems to have been completely reborn.

But it's okay, everyone's surname is Jia, is there any conflict of interest, and it's better to have more such thoughtful clan brothers as helpers, and it's better than a cousin who can't support the wall and asks him to clean up the mess.

Within a few days, the Ministry of Rites really wrote a letter about Jia She's succession to the title. The emperor asked about Jia Daishan's funeral.The emperor was very satisfied: "Mr. Zhongyong Rong is loyal to the country and dedicated himself to the country. It should be like this after death."

They also asked about Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng's behavior. Most of the ministers would rather have many friends and fewer enemies, and Xu Wei took care of it. Jia Zheng didn't say anything, but Jia Amnesty was praised to the sky by them. "Although reading is lacking, he is loyal and loyal, abides by etiquette, and likes the elegant way of gold and stone. Although he can't be said to be the pillar of the country, he can be regarded as the son of a loyal and brave man."

What the emperor is most worried about now is that the power of these meritorious families is too great to threaten the imperial power, but the sentence "I like the way of gold, stone and elegance" touched the bottom of his heart, and he immediately smiled: "Since Qing said that, it is also a shame to think about it." Alright, if that's the case, I will make him a first-class general and inherit Rongguo Mansion."

"The Holy One is wise." Everyone sang promises.

Speaking of Jia Daishan, the emperor thought of the note he had made before his death to seek shade for his second son. Now that the eldest son has been sealed, he is not stingy to give his second son a birthright.It's just that Jia Amnesty knew that he was the father of Jia Hu, the fourth companion. This Jia Zheng... "I don't know how capable this Jia Zheng is..."

It must have been Jia Zheng's bad luck. Xu Wei was not a gossiping person at all. Although he wanted to help his disciple's niece, he just asked his colleagues to help Jia Amnesty to say something good, but he didn't say a word about Jia Zheng. They can't gossip about people behind their backs for no reason, and without people gossiping behind their backs, everyone will have no impression of Jia Zheng.Who is more self-proclaimed than Jia Zheng, who prides himself on being a scholar, seldom hangs out with the children of honorable families, and the Qingliu family will not join him, and finally hangs out with those poor and talented children from low-income families, the courtiers know Jia Daishan I have two sons. I heard that the elder son is not very promising, but he is good at playing with antiques. The younger son, Jia Daishan often praised him during his lifetime, but he didn't hear that he was successful in reading. It seems that he has passed the exam several times. Well, I didn't even pass the Jinshi exam, how capable is it?They really don't know.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and some courtiers who were better than Jia Daishan stood up and said something for him: "I heard Mr. Zhongyong said earlier that the second son is pure filial piety, and Su likes to study."

After hearing this, the emperor inevitably asked: "Oh? It's a good thing to study well, but you have participated in the imperial examination? I suddenly remembered that Jia Jing from Ningguo Mansion won the Jinshi, right? It's rare that Jia's family of martial arts, and so A person who likes literature."

Even though the speaker was a little embarrassed, he faltered and said: "I have heard about it and went to take the test. I don't know what the result is."

In a family of meritorious service, if anyone's children were born in the imperial examinations, they would not spread the good news everywhere. If they are so silent now, they will naturally fail the exams.The emperor immediately fell down in excitement, and said slightly: "So that's how it is."

Only in this way, it is quite problematic to give Jia Zheng a family background. The emperor thought about it, he rewarded Jia Daishan a lot to show his kindness, and it would be a fly in the ointment to lose his son first. The etiquette is inconsistent.

Wang Yushi is an old man from a poor family who came from a serious imperial examination. He passed the 20th exam and served as an official outside the country for [-] years. As if intending to be promoted, he hurried forward and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhongyong has made great contributions to the country, but his son has no fame and hastily assigned important tasks. I am afraid that he will fail the sage Long En, so it is better to give him a family background and leave it for later." If you are a capable minister, then slowly promote him." He said again, "I heard that my brother is fond of gold and stone antiques, and I think he has some experience in this field, so it is suitable to go to the Ministry of Industry to be loyal to the emperor." The Ministry of Industry happens to be in charge of the official residence Construction, the establishment of the princes' mansions and dental work, Jia Zheng was born in a family of meritorious lords, so he must have such a vision, such an arrangement can be regarded as putting him in a place where he is good at.

The emperor asked his ministers: "What do you think?"

Everyone had no close friendship with Jia Zheng, and they had no objection, so the emperor made a decree, bestowing on Jia the position of head of the Ministry of Political Affairs and Industry, from a sixth-rank background.Shortly thereafter, the queen also issued a decree, bestowing orders on Jia She's wife, Mrs. Zhang's Yipin, and Jia Zheng's wife, Wang's Ruren.

The imperial decree reached the Rongguo Mansion all the way, and Jia She led the crowd to kowtow to thank them. After the people left, Jia She gave an order: "From today onwards, the people in the mansion will change their titles, call the wife the old lady, I will be the elder master, and the second brother will be the second master. Brother Hu, brother Lian, brother Zhu, sort them by seniority."

Everyone agreed and congratulated Jia She: "Congratulations to the great master and the second master for being bestowed by the emperor."

Jia She clapped his palms and laughed loudly: "Everyone in the house gives a month's money. Although it is not easy to celebrate in filial piety, I am afraid that there will be relatives and friends who have come to congratulate me. If there is courtesy, they will all refuse. It is inconvenient to reply now. I am really grateful for the kindness. I am waiting for the filial piety." After that, I will come to thank you."

Jia Zheng was listening to Jia Amnesty's dispatch one by one, his face gloomy like water.

Mrs. Zhang cheerfully showed Mrs. Yuzhu Yunjin's order to everyone in front of Jia's mother, but she didn't see Jia's mother's angry face and Wang's eyes of jealousy and hatred while holding the sunflower ebony order.

Are you unhappy seeing her get a first-rank imperial order?Then it's okay to be unhappy.Mother Jia is not happy that her imperial order is on the same level as hers, and Mrs. Wang is afraid that she is dissatisfied that her imperial order is of a higher rank than hers.Who told her husband to be a first-rank general, she should have been a first-rank wife.And Jia Zheng is only from the sixth rank, so it is a blessing for the Wang family to get the lowest edict. How many seventh-rank and sixth-rank officials asked for titles for their families, the court would ignore them. I don't even know that the imperial order has to be delayed until the year of the monkey.

In any case, the Zhang family, the Wang family, etc. are all people with a mandate, and they are no longer white.

When Jia Jing heard the news, he immediately went to Jia Daixiu, Jia Dairu and other places - the matter of the Rongguo Mansion's attacking the noble was now settled, and the winner had been decided, and it was time for him to take his position.

Within two days, while Jia Mu was cursing and complaining bitterly, Jia Amnesty finally summoned the clan elders to formally discuss the separation of the family.

Mother Jia has had enough anger with Jia She these days, in front of the clan elders, it is certain that Jia She will not tear out all the shame in the Rong Mansion because of private affairs, she is relying on the old to sell the old, in front of several clan elders Then she began to weep: "It's been a long time, little uncles, but I don't want to see you all here today. My wife has lived most of her life, but today I have to separate my family, and I have to work hard to come here. I told you to read a joke, think about it, you are really ashamed." The veil wiped the corners of his eyes, and the tears never stopped.

Jia Daixiu and Jia Dairu were separated from Jia Daishan's concubine sons. Normally, Jia's mother relied on her status as the wife of the direct branch of the country, so she couldn't say that she insulted them very much. The first thought that arises is, you also have today!

Jia Dairu is not young, but he is still reading, which makes the ancient precepts of sages and sages in the book dull. Although he doesn't like Jia's mother, he also has complaints about Jia Amnesty. Jia's mother is crying like this. He is a son. How can you still watch indifferently from the sidelines?Da Ni Bu said: "Enhou, your mother is so sad, why don't you persuade her?"

Jia Amnesty was straightforward, standing in front of Jia's mother, and said earnestly: "Mother, don't be sad, I told my mother earlier that it is common sense to have big branches. My second brother and I are both married and established, and my son is a troublemaker. How can I feel bad about getting my second brother involved one day? Why don’t we separate our family and property today, so that we can practice our own future. Don’t worry, mother, even if the family is separated, my second brother and I are also brothers. All constrained blood relatives will be filial to you."

Mother Jia is angry. If you want to say that the brothers are close, serve and be filial to her, wouldn’t it be better for everyone to live together in Rongguo Mansion and have a family reunion, and she will see each other every day. Can be by her side?Without the name of Rongguo Mansion, Jia Zheng is now a mere sixth-rank official, what can he do in Beijing?

"That said, it's better to be a family together. I'm getting old, and I may follow in your father's footsteps one day. Now that you are all officials, the only thing I hope for is that you two brothers can always be together." Be by my side, stay with me." Jia's mother was heartbroken, "Boss, if you are really filial to me, you will follow my only wish."

When Jia She heard this, he just plopped down and knelt down: "Mother said this, but my son will be ruined." He just didn't answer whether he agreed or not.

Mother Jia got angry, patted the table and shouted: "What's the use of kneeling and showing me, you just say, do you want me or not?"

Jia Amnesty raised her head, the fierceness in her eyes startled Mother Jia, she only heard him say: "How did mother force the son to come here? I really have no choice but to disobey your wishes and want to separate from the second brother. If the family is harmonious and peaceful, Don’t you want your son to be happy too, but the life in the mansion is miserable now, and there are many things that make people unhappy, and the son can’t bear it any longer, please ask the mother to love the son, so that the son can sleep peacefully at night !"

Those who didn't know were confused by Jia She's words, and were curious about what happened in the Rong Mansion. Those who knew, like Jia's mother, immediately flew into a rage when they heard what Jia She said: "What do you mean? If I don’t promise you to separate the family, you still won’t be able to sleep well every day?” Jia She, who was filial and obedient to her words, was like a dreamer, and Jia’s mother looked at Jia She in front of her, wishing she could do it. He was never born.In front of the family members, he actually slapped her face like this!He also pulled his face down, he was embarrassed too!

Jia Amnesty is not just being mean, he doesn't even want face, as long as he can separate the family, he can do anything!He didn't believe how much Jia's mother had scolded him during this time for the separation of the family. He insisted on separating, what could Jia's mother do to him!

Jia She looked up at the elder of the clan: "I am the eldest son, but my ability is mediocre, and I have no talent for reading. The second brother is young and precocious, and he likes to read. But I'm afraid you have heard about it. Things are complicated, and there are few moments of rest, which caused my second brother to fail the imperial examinations twice. I thought, if my second brother moves out of the mansion, without such troubles, he will be able to faithfully serve the emperor in the future. Besides, my father has gone, and Rong The national government has lost its pillars, and it is time for our two brothers to fight hard for the lintel of Guangyao. It is also beneficial to separate each other. I also ask the elders to learn from me and be a witness for me today. Here, I thank you all."

Before Jia Daixiu, Jia Dairu and others came, they had met Jia Jing, and they all lived in Front and Back Streets. They had the same surname Jia, and they had heard some things more or less. The dispute between the eldest and the second wife, Jia's mother was so eccentric, no wonder Jia Amnesty couldn't stand it.But then again, Jia She's clamoring to separate the family at the moment, isn't it related to Zhang's serious illness that was rumored some time ago?The rumor came out of nowhere, Zhang Shi was clearly doing well, but the rumor cursed her to die, it was really strange, I'm afraid there was something tricky about it.

In any case, although Jia Daixiu and Jia Daishan are of high seniority, they want money, no money, no power, and care for their children and grandchildren. In the future, they will inevitably beg Jia's pardon. He is more inclined to Jia Amnesty, who has already won the title.The tree has a big branch, and the two brothers want to separate. The situation of Jia pardoning Jia Zheng is not out of the ordinary.Most of the rich and powerful families in Beijing were separated after the old father left. Of course, most of the bastards were separated...

Jia Jing had seen the crowd, cleared his throat and was about to speak when someone hurriedly ran over from behind and cried to Jia Zheng, "Second Master, go and see, Second Wife has passed out."

Mother Jia's eyes lit up, and without waiting for everyone to recover, she hurriedly said: "What's the matter? Why did the second child's family faint suddenly?" She cried again, "I came in and ignored her. She said she was not feeling well, but she is still suffering from anger these days, how can her body bear it. I should have invited a doctor to take her pulse a long time ago."

The words that meant something made everyone's eyes turn to Jia Amnesty.

After a while, another little girl about eleven or twelve years old ran in, but she was smiling all over her face, and shouted to Jia Zheng in surprise: "Second Master, don't be anxious, but I'm very happy, the second wife is pregnant! "
