The Legend of the Long Room in the Red Mansion

Ning Shan thought with a slight sarcasm with a smile: The throne given for free is really not easy to sit on, and the things in the world are still the incense of snatching.Thinking of the chaotic wars in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, because his father Yang Zhong followed Emperor Wen Tai of the Northern Zhou Dynasty to revolt in Kansai. After he won the title, he felt that being with the king was like a tiger. His daughter Yang Lihua is already Yu Wenyun's queen, and the title of head of the country does not stop him from rebelling.Later, his son Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, was also ordinary. He took the crown prince from his elder brother by means, and took advantage of Yang Jian's illness to take his life to sit on the throne.Not to mention the later Li Tang, who married the aunt of their Dugu family, wouldn't they still overthrow the Sui Dynasty?It can be seen that the throne is more secure if it is snatched.Today's high position is too sudden and smooth, and there will be troubles in the future.

Wang Ziteng refused to talk to Ning Shan, but still gently persuaded Jia Lian to surrender, and Ning Shan simply handed over the memorial.The new emperor asked Ning Shan, "Didn't Ai Qing pay off the debts owed by the household department with a guarantee?"He didn't say the second half of the sentence, but it was clearly written on his face to mock him.Ning Shan was calm and composed: "The minister said that he could pay off, but he didn't say how long it would take to pay off. The arrears are old, so naturally, it won't take a year to recover. It's just that Mr. Wang doesn't seem to have a saint in his eyes. This humble minister is just angry for the emperor."

Today, don't you know that those nobles are thinking about the reappearance of the Supreme Emperor, and no one takes him seriously?As soon as Ning Shan provoked her, she became very angry: "Then Aiqing might help me to share my worries?" It's not a skill to get angry, you have to solve it for him.Today, it can also be seen that Ning Shan doesn't seem to have any intention of relying on the Supreme Emperor, but she still doesn't trust him, and always wants to subdue him and take him for her own use, but this person is alone, there is nothing to handle him.The new emperor also didn't know if Jinnah's sister would be useful after three years of drafting. After all, they grew up apart from each other, and she was still a concubine. Some hold back.

Ning Shan didn't know what the new emperor was thinking, nor did she care.He only thought about trying to show some color to the prince, so as not to treat him as easy to handle, and dare to fool his younger brother in front of him.This Prince Teng focused on power, just as he wanted, let him be promoted, but in fact he was secretly demoted, and it could also make him offend the Supreme Emperor and the present at the same time, so that he could vent his anger.Ning Shan then "kindly" persuaded the emperor, saying: "Now that the Supreme Emperor is very powerful, why should the Emperor stand firm and fall into the shoes of others, how about one or two people with winking be promoted first, so that the Supreme Emperor has nowhere to intervene, and the Emperor is filial and considerate. Wouldn't it be cheaper to get the best of both worlds?"

The emperor's dissatisfaction with the Supreme Emperor was all provoked by Ning Shan: "Ai Qing will explain in detail."

Ning Shan then analyzed for him: "Nowadays the nobles are not willing to pay back the money, it's just that they don't see the actual benefits, and they don't want to let go. As long as they see the real benefits of power, I'm not afraid they won't grab it Pay it back."

Although the emperor understands, this is for him to reward those who pay back the money first to encourage those who come later. Although he is dissatisfied, he also knows that there are many masters in the world who do not see rabbits and do not scatter eagles. An official position or a virtual title can get real money, which is also a suitable business.Immediately said: "Who does love think deserves the most praise?" In the end, she still suspects that Ning Shan has formed a party with someone, and she has to see who the name comes out of his mouth.

Ning Shan gave him the answer very straightforwardly: "Naturally, the first one to repay the loan, and the two who paid it off at once are the most worthy of rewards, and they are also suitable as targets."

The emperor asked, "Which two are those?"

Ning Shan showed him the memorial from the Ministry of Household Affairs: "The first one is the 'Chizao Rongguo Mansion'. The former first-class soldier, now a member of the Ministry of War, Jia She, went to his house to move the warehouse first." Don't you just want to see who he is with?Just let him see, he is the first one to give a reward to the silly father.

"As for the second family, it was also persuaded by Jia Yuanwailang. It is his mother-in-law's family, which is now divided into two historians. , and anxious about the world’s urgent needs, shouldn’t they be rewarded?!” Jia Amnesty was specially carried out by Ning Shan, but Jing Zhonghou Shi Ding was not arranged by him, he just didn’t expect that the old dandy Jia Amnesty also had two or three close friends Just willing to sell his face.

The selection of these two candidates was beyond the new emperor's expectation. Originally, he thought that Ning Shan was trying to gain some benefits for his party members, but he didn't expect that the two benefits would fall on his own father and cousin.If he recognized Jia Amnesty, Shi Ding would really become a member of his relatives.While the new emperor couldn't believe it, he couldn't think of how to reward these two people.Then Shi Ding is the Lord Marquis, so why should he be promoted to Duke?

Ning Shan also accepted this stingy ghost emperor, she is only a vain noble, how many taels of silver can she pay in a year?He gritted his teeth and paid hundreds of thousands, but he was reluctant to part with a few thousand taels?Ning Shan, who was a little angry, shortened the sentence: "If you have a noble, you will be given an errand, and if you don't have a noble, you will be given a title. As for the title, the size of the errand, isn't it at the emperor's discretion? Just use them to make two For example, it’s just to encourage the people behind to repay the loan, but it doesn’t make the emperor use them.” This person still wants to fight the emperor?Even if the Taishanghuang is old and confused, he knows that to let the horse gallop, it must be fed with forage first.It is more appropriate to be a bandit with such an empty-handed white wolf thinking.

The emperor thought about it for a while, and seemed to think that it would be a good deal to exchange a few thousand for hundreds of thousands, so he gritted his teeth and gave a heavy reward: "Jing Zhonghou Shi Ding appointed officials from other provinces, and issued an imperial decree on a certain day. As for Jia's amnesty?" Looking at Ning Shan who was standing in front of her with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, she didn't see any color change. She just felt that an old dandy was worthy of his attention. Finally, she found the shortcoming of this person, and gave a big one when she was happy. : "The Jia family is all loyal to the country. They should have been named marquises, but they are just the Supreme Emperor. There must be some misunderstanding. Now he is only given the title he deserves." It made people draw up an order to promote Jia She to Marquis of Rongguo, but only his own generation will not pass it on. Poor Jia Lian thought that his own title had finally been promoted, but he forgot that he had already held a title. It can be passed on, and it will not be given to him again.

Ning Shan didn't expect the silly father to be pushed so high all of a sudden, but she was a little stunned.However, now I only remember that Jia She has held the title of "foolish filial piety" for more than 20 years, thinking that they are inherited from father and son, and Ning Shan is also very filial to Jia She, so she gave such a big reward heartily, but they don't know, he Originally, I just wanted my silly father to be a first-class general again. Anyway, it will be easier to get promoted in the future. Don't enter the officialdom for nothing, and sit in the position of Yuanwailang for [-] years, so that Jia Zheng can laugh at him again.

After thanking the silly father for his kindness and returning home, Ning Shan pulled Jia She, who was admiring the treasured antiques in the study, and said: "Go back to the mansion some day. If you have revenge, you have to vent your anger." If you don't rush back with an eye for an eye, when will you wait?

Jia Amnesty didn't realize it, and thought that Ning Shan was going to be promoted: "My good son, I'm going to be promoted again? Let me tell you about it as a father." After finishing speaking, excitedly, he ordered people to pack up the pack and prepare the horse. He wanted to go back to Lian'er Stay for a few days and have a good time.

Jia Amnesty has always lived in Ning Shan's house more, and rarely returned to Rongguo Mansion. When Jia Lian received his father, he thought it was his elder brother who disliked him and came back after sweeping the floor.Jia Amnesty didn't know whether he was going to be promoted soon, or whether the eldest son deliberately asked for the imperial decree to be sent to the Rongguo Mansion for him to show off, so he still lacked confidence in the face of Jia Shishi and the Erfang family.

"I lost all my family's money, and didn't get any benefit, but now I have the face to come home." This is Jia Shishi's sarcasm straight to the point.When Ning Shan was promoted, she was so angry that she almost fainted again. She used his family's money to promote herself. If a kid surnamed Ning stood in front of her, she would spit on him on the spot.

Not in the mood to argue with him that the money was not originally his own, Jia Amnesty poked his neck and said: "Now I have an official position, and my son also has an official position, how much more good is it? Loyalty to the king is a matter of course, even though I am a dude , I also know that debts have to be repaid, how can the second child be good at reading, and a decent person, but don’t understand these things?" Having no confidence in arguing with Jia Shishi, it is still very easy to ridicule Zheng's second child.The eldest brother is like a father, and he has to endure beatings and scolding. If it weren't for Jia Shishi's partiality, and he had no one to support him for so many years, he would have been beating Jia Zheng three times a day.

Jia Shi could not see Jia She bullying Jia Zheng the most, so he dropped the teacup immediately: "Your filial brother has been fed to the dogs? I'm not dead yet." She dared to bully the second child like this in front of her, and she would still do it in the future. Can have a good time?Jia Shishi hated Jia even more and pardoned Jia Lian who gave the title to Jia Lian. If the second wife got the title, the nobles in the palace and Baoyu in the family, what else should they worry about?I hate that big house, who gave Jia Amnesty the title 20 years ago, and now it's given to Jia Lian. In this family, there is no room for the second house.In other words, her grandmother, who has been separated for a generation, has less and less right to speak.

It has been the habit of Jia Shishi for many years to stand up for the second wife. He often doesn't even think about protecting it first, and then pondering why he should protect it. When he thinks of the floating wealth of the Lin family that was yelled out by Jia Amnesty, which caused Jia Zheng to lose his official position, Jia Shishi hated it even more: "Didn't you go with your good son? What are you doing back here? He doesn't want you anymore?" Jia Shishi wanted to start with Ning Shan and find something to make him do the same. After a somersault, the provincial Jia She was bragging about having such a son and the second room all day long.

Jia Amnesty couldn't hear people saying that the eldest son was not good, so he immediately put down his face: "Shan'er is my son, and Lian'er is also my son. Where should I go to live with my son? But Jia Zheng, you are still planning to stay at my son's house?" How long?" Now that Jia Lian has taken over the title, the second room still has the face to occupy the Rongxi Hall, and he is ashamed of this thick-skinned.

The canonized imperial decree just happened at this extremely wrong time. A group of people rummaged through boxes and cabinets to find official uniforms and ordered uniforms to receive the decree. The second room who had no face to receive the decree was sent to set up an incense table to welcome the angel. Jia Shishi painstakingly wanted to give Jia Zheng created opportunities to show his face, but he forgot to teach his son how to be popular.

After being at a loss for a long time, Jia Zheng, who prepared the incense case and candlestick under the guidance of Da Jia Wang, looked in shock at Jia She, who took over the robe of the Marquis, and deeply felt the malice from the whole world: the money he gave, After repaying the debt, the benefits of being promoted to the noble fell on Jia She, the emperor's eyes are... so what's the matter?
