An old lady's life

Of course, it is not that simple to transfer the title. Shi Min is sure that the emperor will allow his original title to inherit the title. stupid thing.

Regardless of Jia Daishan and Jia Daihua's close relationship with Emperor Changping, the two of them did not submit a memorial to give up the title before they were alive, and they accepted the title according to the rules after death.

Because Jia Daihua and Jia Daishan have been idle at home for many years, the previous credits have been reflected in the title of duke, and the next generation wants to inherit the title of duke, it must be credited. The next generation, Jia Jing and Jia Amnesty, are just ordinary children of aristocratic families. What skills do they have to make the emperor value them?

Shi Min is different. He has been in the army. Even if he is running for his son's future, he has made great contributions. Emperor Changping is not an emotional person. He is a rational emperor. He uses merit as a measure. Therefore, Shi Min is very sure that even if he surrenders the title, the eldest son will still be able to inherit the title.

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng were quite surprised, but they could not interfere with the decision made by their uncle.

Jia She came back from get off work, scratched his head, walked up to his mother, drooped his eyelids, and said after a long time: "Mother, I have a big question about the title of Marquis Baoling's Mansion, and I can't figure it out."

Hongye raised her eyebrows, put the tea cup in her hand beside her, and said, "What's the problem? Let's hear it."

"Mother, let me explain first. I'm not jealous that my cousin can inherit the original title, but I just have some doubts." Jia She's expression was a little embarrassed, and he showed a posture of courtesy first and then soldiers, and said: "The matter of the Bowling Marquis's residence today happened to be at lunchtime. Master Shangshu is at the same table with me and the right servant, and we chatted."

After Hongye heard it, she realized what question Jia Amnesty was asking. Although Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice was a few years younger than Emperor Changping, he was less than 20 years old when he passed the imperial examination. As a Jinshi, Emperor Changping fought fiercely with the other princes in the last few years. The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice would not be worth being wooed, so he could only hide behind and watch a good show. Naturally for the members of Emperor Changping's team Clearly, at noon today, news of the Marquis of Bowling's mansion passing the title just happened to spread, and everyone couldn't help discussing it. The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment unconsciously mentioned the relationship between Jia Daishan and Emperor Changping. Jia Amnesty just thought about it a lot.

Jia Amnesty scratched his head: "I don't know what I want to ask."

Hongye glanced at Jia She, and then at Jia Zheng. The two brothers were in a daze. She pondered for a moment, then looked at the maid at the door: "Hu Po, go and call Hu'er and Zhu'er."

Jia Hu and Jia Zhu are also getting older, and there are some things that should be taught to them. In a few years, maybe Hu'er will have to take the exam.

"There are some things that can be taught to Hu'er and Zhu'er. They are already sensible and know what to say and what not to say."

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng nodded, their sons are indeed grown up, Hu'er will be 11 years old in the next year, and Zhu'er will be [-] years old. Thinking of their own age, they seem quite ignorant. The two brothers looked at each other and moved away silently. out of sight.

Hong Ye secretly smiled in her heart. Compared with Jia Hu and Jia Zhu, Jia She and Jia Zheng's rebellious period came very early and lasted very long. Thinking about it now, it is full of dark history.

Jia Hu and Jia Zhu soon came. Jia Lian was going to come, but was stopped by Mrs. Zhang, knowing that what the mother-in-law and the master said was not suitable for Lian'er to participate, but Jia Lian pouted and was unhappy, and kept talking. Whispering, it's not uncommon for the young master not to let me know!

In front of his son, Jia She seemed unable to say why the emperor allowed the original title of Marquis of Bowling to be inherited. The title of Marquis of Rongyang was also inherited by the family through some secret actions.

Hongye didn't make things difficult for Jia She, she explained in detail the prerequisites of the two families under the background of the succession of titles by the Bowling Marquis Mansion and the Rongyang Marquis Mansion.

It was the first time Jia She and Jia Zheng knew that their father had such a good relationship with the emperor before. The only time the emperor went to war was when his father protected him. Otherwise, even if the emperor did not die, he would be disabled. How could he succeed in winning the throne.

Of course, it is not only the credit of Jia Daishan who ascended the throne as the emperor, but also other people, but the credit of Jia Daishan is the most important thing that cannot be ignored.

The reason why my father was laid off early and stayed at home was probably because he spent those years in the wind and rain on the battlefield, the sword had no eyes, and he suffered too many hidden wounds. His father was able to live for another ten years without illness, thanks to the emperor's imperial physician. His medical skills are superb.

"Do you feel unwilling and unconvinced? Your father has done so much for the emperor, and he suffered from illnesses all over." Hongye said indifferently, she glanced at Jia She and Jia Zheng one by one, and then looked at Jia Hu and Jia Zhu, these two little guys His face was tense.

Jia Zheng's expression was relatively calm, because he knew that he would not be able to seize the title. Jia She's expression was indeed somewhat indignant. He might not have had that thought in his heart. His father had such a good relationship with the emperor, and his father was born and died for the emperor...

"When your grandfather died, your father was less than 20 years old. You were not even born at that time. At that time, your father's title was earl. Later, when the emperor became emperor, he was injured and retired from the army. The emperor then promoted your father. Even though you were still young when this happened, you should still remember. The title of Rongguo Duke Mansion was completely won by your father in the army to win back the glory of your ancestors. What your father did for the emperor has already been exhausted. Use this title to pay off, then think about it yourself, after your father died, why did the emperor let you inherit the original title?"

Hongye looked at Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng, who immediately lowered their heads with shame on their faces.

"The succession to the original nobility was obtained in exchange for your uncle's contributions in the army over the years. It is undeniable that I agree with the emperor's approach on this point. If the king of a country is completely emotional, it is only because of your father and his If the relationship is close, let Xi'er Yuanjue inherit, then this country is not far from subjugation."

Jia She and Jia Zheng were thoughtful, and Hong Ye said again: "Then let's give an example. Take our Rong Mansion as an example. There are a total of two hundred people in the Mansion. Take the chief steward Lin Ye and the second steward Rai Jian as an example."

"Lin Ye and Lai Jian have worked hard in the position of steward these years. They have devoted their whole lives to their master and have made a lot of contributions. After they are gone, they will be grateful to Lin Ye's son Lin Zhixiao and Lai Jian's two sons. For sons Lai Ping and Lai Sheng, what Sheer thinks is more reasonable?"

Jia She hesitated for a moment, Hongye said again: "Your milk brothers have always been close to you, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are half brothers, but you are very close to them. After they are gone, how will you treat their sons?" How to do it?"

"When a servant in the mansion is usually far away from you, the master, he has been working hard in the mansion and has made great contributions to the mansion, but the son of your brother-in-law is only because of his father's protection. Although there are no major faults in the mansion, there are still minor faults, and the errands are handled in a mediocre manner, he competes with your nurse brother's son for the same position, how should you, the master of the house, choose?"

Now Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng were confused, let alone Jia Hu and Jia Zhu. The two boys rolled their eyes and thought silently.

"The emperor manages Dafeng just like you are the masters of the family, and your corresponding status in Dafeng is the status of servants in the mansion. Do you think it is more honorable to exchange credit for future and rewards, or to exchange friendship with ancestors for future glory? Management In fact, Tianxia is essentially the same as managing the Houfu."

Of course, this is a general aspect, and there are still some details. Hongye feels that there is no need to pursue the details for the time being. For example, the title and position are different. Shi Wei can inherit the title of Bowling Marquis, but it is absolutely impossible to inherit the title of Shi Min. For the position of general, even Shi Nai and Shi Ding have been in the army for many years.

China has been a country of human feelings for 5000 years. It is impossible to completely abandon feelings. Even the emperor cannot do this. Human can.

One of the most taboo things for superiors is cronyism, which is the most undesirable thing!Whether it is a country or a small family, sooner or later the country will perish if this continues!

This conversation lasted half an hour, Hongye saw that it was getting late, and the dinner time was delayed in the past, so she waved her hands and said, "Go back and think about it yourself, it's time for dinner now."

After saying that, Jia Hu and Jia Zhu's faces became brighter. Jia Zhu felt that what Grandma said was easy to understand, and Jia Hu felt that what Grandma said was so obvious. Whether it is the court or the government, meritorious people should be used, and those who are incapable People, don't you use it to make things difficult for yourself?

Of course, Jia Hu is just talking on paper. The people and things around him now are decided by his parents, so he won't be so entangled like Jia She and Jia Zheng.

The servant girl saw that the conversation between the masters in the room was over, so she immediately went to inform the two wives. Not long after, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Wang brought Jia Lian and sister Shan to Rong'an Hall one after another.

Sister Shan saw that her brothers were very happy, and Jia Lian was a little emotional. The brothers and grandmother had secrets, but they didn't let him know, so happy!

Jia Lian was unhappy, which made everyone quite helpless, Hong Ye rubbed his little head, and said with a smile: "Lian'er is still young, some things will not be known until you grow up."

Jia Lian pursed her mouth and poked the bottom of the bowl with the chopsticks in her hand, "I've grown up!" Trying to be convincing, she deliberately puffed out her small chest.

Everyone couldn't help laughing, and Jia Lian's eyes turned red with anger. He climbed off his special high chair and threw himself into his mother's arms for comfort.

Mrs. Zhang calmed him down by talking hard. Sister Shan stared at Jia Lian curiously. Seeing Jia Lian raised her head from her aunt's arms, she blinked and asked, "Third brother, stupid, I didn't even cry."

Jia Lian, who was still a little emotional, suddenly became unhappy. Sister Shan's words were the most exciting. Jia Lian immediately stopped crying, and climbed back to the high chair, with a look on her face that I didn't cry!

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng didn't have time to pay attention to the children's emotions, they were still immersed in their own thoughts.

Zhang Shi and Wang Shi held back their smiles, Jia Hu and Jia Zhu didn't dare to laugh at their younger brother, otherwise they wouldn't be able to hold back his younger brother crying again.

Hongye looked at it and said with a smile: "Okay, let's eat. The children are growing up, but they can't be hungry."

After dinner, the time for chatting after the meal was taken up before the meal, so Hong Ye didn't stay, and bid farewell to mother, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng took their wives and children back to the yard.

Because it was still early and it was not time to go to bed, so after Jia She and the others returned to their respective courtyards, the family went into the study to study and read.

They didn't pay attention to the changes in the weather, and when they came out of the study, they realized that snowflakes were floating in the sky one after another, and they would melt when they landed.

"It's snowing?" Mrs. Zhang was surprised, and hugged the eldest son in front of her. The couple put the two sons to bed, and then returned to the bedroom to wash and go to bed.

Night talk on the bed, this is the most common conversation between husband and wife, Jia She and Zhang talked about this issue, although everyone spoke convincingly, but they were all on paper, and it was only when it was their turn to make a decision that they realized the entanglement.

Naturally, Jia Zheng didn't want to mention it to Wang in the west courtyard, but Wang kept asking, and there was nothing he could not tell her.

It’s still easy to talk about war on paper, but you will know the difficulty when you actually make a decision. People and things around you, as well as the outside environment, can interfere with your judgment.

But Hongye knew that Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng were born sons of the rich and powerful, and when they acted on their emotions, they would be ruthless once their subordinates violated the bottom line, just like the last time the house was rectified.

Many things are similar but different. If the Jia family wants to continue, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng still have a lot to learn.
