Aristocratic family's career in the Red Chamber

Probably because he saw the decline of the Jia clan, probably because he saw the decline of the Jia clan, while Jia Hu sighed for the Ningguo Mansion, he knew more clearly that if he slowly climbed up according to the situation in front of him now At this speed, it may take at least 20 years for the Jia family to rise.

And he couldn't wait.

It takes time to become famous, and Jia Hu can't stand the two or 30 years, and slowly achieve his goal step by step.He is capable and capable, why not take a shortcut?

"Rong and Di invade the border in the west, disturbing the people every year. It's not very annoying. In the early years, I couldn't get rid of it. Now the world is peaceful, the tax revenue is increasing year by year, and the treasury is full. This opportunity, let’s go to the border.” Jia Hu thought that although he couldn’t join the army directly at first, as long as he was at the border, with his many years of learning and martial arts skills, why would he not find a chance to make contributions?Self-made military merit is a good way to get promoted quickly. Jia Hu thought of Jia Lian and Jia Rong. There are not many children in the Jia family who are up to the challenge, and the next generation are relatively young. , if I can get up quickly, I can pull it out when the time comes.If a clan wants to prosper, it must rely on the efforts of all the children in the clan, but if there is no leader, it will be difficult.

Jia Hu calculated his plan back and forth, and there was nothing wrong with it, so he talked to Tu Youhao in detail while drinking: "Wars are inevitable, and it's only been a year or two. Now I'm in the Imperial Academy. I'm doing it, and the news is clear. If this matter is really decided at that time, the court must send civilian officials to the army. This is not a good job. I don't think there will be too many people arguing with me, so I can go out , Save yourself some merit."

If others were left alone, Jia Hu would not have spoken so bluntly.But the person in front of him was Tu Youhao, but Jia Hu had no scruples.Not to mention the friendship between the two, Jia Hu thought to himself that he was going to follow Tu Youhao, since he was determined to follow, instead of being cautious, it would be better to put all his thoughts out at the beginning, Tu Youhao understood in his heart, Also knowing his sincerity, there will be no grudges between the two.After all, Tu Youhao grew up in the palace, and he has been intriguing since he was a child. If he came to Jia Hu's place, he would still be suspicious, but now it's okay. As time goes by, we will grow stronger with each other, and no matter how deep the friendship is, Can't stand mutual speculation and suspicion.

Instead, they are honest with each other, and perhaps this friendship can last longer.

Jia Hu told Tu Youhao her plan without any concealment, without looking at him, just circling in front of the bamboo forest in front of her without any focus, drinking her wine in depression, but missed Tu Youhao's face The violent storm at that moment.

Tu Youhao couldn't believe his ears, he heard Jia Hu say that he was leaving the capital and going to the western border?

How is this possible? !

It's just that I haven't seen Jia Hu during this period of time, and I already miss him every day, knowing that he is now in the capital, and I can see him whenever I go out of the palace, but every time Tu Youhao thinks about it, he still feels very uncomfortable , now that Jia Hu actually wants to leave the capital and go thousands of miles away, how can Tu Youhao bear it?

"Why do you think that every time you come out, you come out once." Tu Youhao pulled his face and said displeasedly, "You also go to the battlefield casually? Not to mention that the matter about Xidi has just started to be discussed in the court. You are a civil servant, where are you going to do it? With your little martial arts, you can still be invincible? The soldiers of the Manchu Dynasty, can you allow a civil servant to make achievements on the battlefield and beat them in the face?" Tu Youhao said in a tone One after another, at the end he just said, "No, you are not allowed to go, it is too dangerous."

Jia Hu only thought that he cared about him, and it was very useful in his heart, but he didn't take it seriously when he refused to let him go, and said with a smile: "You still think I'm that reckless man who knows martial arts but doesn't know how to calculate? Headache? Am I such a reckless person? Naturally, it has been planned long ago."

"Although my family is in decline now, after all, the foundation of my grandfather and great-grandfather is still there, and I know a lot of people in the army. When I go to the army, I will naturally trust anyone I can. As long as I am in the army, the opportunities will gradually increase Just look for it, when the time comes, those soldiers don’t want me to be a civil servant, so I’m really going to get caught?” Jia Hu smiled and patted Tu Youhao, “I’m not that reckless person, don’t worry, I’ve been fighting for so many years It’s not for nothing.” The teachings of the Yang family in his previous life for many years are not fake.The Hongnong Yang family has produced many generals over the years, among other things, Yang Xuangan, who brought disaster to the Yang family, is also famous for leading troops in battle.Jia Hu is confident that she will not be bad.

Jia Hu had a good plan here, the more Tu Youhao listened, the more his heart sank, he couldn't figure out how to refute Jia Hu's words, but in the end, Jia Hu clearly made up his mind, not at all. Talk to him, but a decision has already been made.My heart was even more panicked, and I said angrily: "Since you have made a decision, why bother to tell me again? Chaoli is just trying to show you that you are so anxious to plan, you obviously have a plan long ago, and now you are telling me, it's another Why bother."

Jia Hu was taken aback by Tu Youhao's sudden anger. Looking back at his livid face, she was stunned for a while, and then slowly came to her senses that Tu Youhao was not happy, he kept it from him As for him, after thinking about it, he explained: "I didn't hide it from you. I had this idea earlier, but I didn't make a decision. It's just that you have heard more or less about the things that happened in Ningguo Mansion a few days ago, so I don't hide it from you." You, my Uncle Jing, seeing that your spirit is getting worse and worse, now you have a faint thought of being out of the world. If you count the entire Jia family, if there is no Uncle Jing, you will not be able to pick anyone else. If we don't live up to our expectations, our Jia family will really fall to the end of the Jingbei Marquis Mansion in three to fifty years."

The Jingbeihou's mansion was also a family that followed the Taizu's uprising and became a marquis. Unfortunately, the descendants did not live up to expectations. The first generation of Jingbeihou was fine when he was alive. Not at all, relying on the title salary to eat... In Manjing, who has put this family in their eyes?As long as Jia Hu shudders when he thinks that his family may become like this, he will not let this happen even if he dies!

Tu Youhao has nothing to say, he hates Jia Jing so much at his age, who doesn't have a ups and downs, who doesn't have a son who doesn't live up to expectations?It's just him, who is about to retreat after a little setback, and now he's getting in his way again, it's just hateful!

Looking at Jia Hu sullenly, Tu Youhao was in a bad mood, but he couldn't say anything to tell Jia Hu not to go.Growing up together since childhood, Tu Youhao knew better than anyone else Jia Hu's desire to glorify his family, but for the sake of his family, he couldn't stop him.

Thinking all kinds of things in his heart, an idea flashed across Tu Youhao's mind, he glanced at Jia Hu, and quickly suppressed the thought.In the end, Tu Youhao could only say in a deep voice: "If there is anything I can help, just say it."

Jia Hu pulled him back and laughed, "That's natural, how can I be polite to you?"

Although Tu Youhao was still unhappy, he felt better after all, he grabbed Jia Hu with his backhand, and said with a smile: "If you are really polite to me, I have made you a friend for nothing."

The two looked at each other and smiled, the unhappiness at the beginning was gone with the wind, the turmoil in the affairs of the court was annoying, and the two chatted about their respective lives, but it was also a mess that made people feel uneasy, so they could only shake their heads, expressing their desires. It was quiet but the wind kept blowing, so why didn't they want to live a peaceful life, but they couldn't allow them to stop because of their position.

Tu Youhao took the initiative to talk about his recent busy affairs: "Someone from the Chen family came to find me and planned to send the daughter of the Chen family to my backyard. I have already promised the position of a side concubine." Tu Youhao said Shi sneered again and again, with resentment and unwillingness, "I sold myself for a good price, and the Chen family will send a large amount of property to me along with the dowry. In the future, the Chen family will do their best to stand by me. After death... I can be regarded as having a mother clan to rely on."

When Tu Youhao thought of the bargaining between the Chen family and himself, he was really upset, and even more so, he laughed at himself. He vainly regarded himself as the prince, and in the end, he fell to the point of selling out his marriage to gain support.The side concubine's position was sold for a good price today, and the position of the princess in the future will naturally be bound by interest entanglements.It only depends on whether you have enough bargaining chips and whether you can sell them for a good price.

The girl in the building is real gold and silver. After all, my status as the prince has an advantage, and I can marry a good girl, and then have a lot of money and wealth!Tu Youhao sneered and thought, after all, there is really no difference!

Jia Hu suddenly realized that Tu Youhao was full of gloom when he came in. He wanted to ask what happened, but he was worried that Tu Youhao would not tell, so he pretended not to see it, but it turned out that he was thinking about this matter. thing.

Jia Hu thought for a while and said, "My father and mother, do you know why they got married?" Without waiting for Tu Youhao to speak, he continued, "Back then, my grandfather of the Zhang family was still there, and it was the one whom the emperor trusted so much. People, seeing that the emperor is getting more and more dominant in the fight for the throne, the Rongguo Mansion needs a guarantee if they want to switch to Mingzhu. The person who is here is on the side of the emperor." Jia Hu said, his eyes fixed on Tu Youhao, "For people like us, marriage has never been easy to make decisions according to our wishes. We were doomed since we were born, Our marriage is an exchange of interests. If we really want to say that a simple marriage is an ordinary family, two families get married, and who doesn't carefully look at each other's house? You are so negative now that you are on the edge of the horns. You are If you don't marry the Chen family, don't you think you won't get married in the future? Thinking about it the other way around, why isn't the Chen family trying to win you over? They want to seek refuge with you, but they just need a guarantee, a place next to your pillow, so that they can rest assured You follow the trend, how come you are ignoring yourself like this?"

At the end of Jia Hu's speech, she was faintly surprised by Tu Youhao's sudden thought.

Tu Youhao looked at him and smiled wryly.Where is he, his own mind!
