Palace Flower as Employment [Red Mansion]
Chapter 51
Although Mrs. Jia Zhengwang's side has already been defeated, with Jia Baoyu's behavior, they will definitely not be able to get up in a short time.But Jia Baoyu still has her uncle Wang Ziteng, and her cousin Wang Xiluan. Shi Xiangyun is also the eldest lady of the historian family after all. Even her two uncles are gone now, but she still has her mother clan.
In the past, Shi Xiangyun had identified the Jia family and Jia Baoyu's family, Mrs. Jia Zhengwang's wife, but after getting married, even Shi Xiangyun didn't care about her before, and she also knew the importance of relatives to her.Therefore, after marriage, Shi Xiangyun picked up relatives who he didn't care much about in the past.
However, her jealousy towards Lin Daiyu remained undiminished, and she deliberately publicized it. Soon, everyone Shi Xiangyun could get in touch with got the news.
For those who want to cling to Jia Qi, what shortcomings can Jia Qi have?Although Jia Qi chooses to take care of his son himself differently from men nowadays, in the eyes of these people, Jia Qi cares about the family and loves children, not to mention, how many 17-year-old prime ministers can there be in this world.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that with Jia Qi's ability, he is still a powerful minister for more than ten years.
Really like what Shi Xiangyun said, Lin Daiyu is not in good health, not to mention marrying a daughter to fill in the house, even marrying to be a concubine, as long as it can bring benefits to the family, as long as the national law allows, some people are willing!
Among them, Shi Xiangyun's aunt, Mrs. Zhong Jinghou, is the most important.
Mrs. Zhongjinghou's thoughts are actually similar to Aunt Xue's. In Mrs. Zhongjinghou's heart, no, it should be called the former Mrs. Zhongjinghou now. It's true that the daughter crawled out of her stomach, but how important is the daughter? ?After all, the daughter is going to marry off. If the daughter's marriage can be exchanged for the interests of the historian, then when it is time to give up, it is better to be willing.
Not to mention, Shi Xianglin is only two years younger than Shi Xiangyun, one year younger than Jia Qi, and he is exactly sixteen this year.If Shi Xianglin's father's filial piety can be fulfilled in three years, Shi Xianglin will be dragged into an old girl!How can it compare to Jia Qi, not to mention her age, she is also talented and beautiful, and she is the prime minister's wife when she married.
The former Mrs. Zhong Jinghou felt that Shi Xiangyun was the grandnephew of Jiamu's natal family, and her own daughter was also the grandnephew of Jiamu's natal family. When Shi Xiangyun married Jia Baoyu, the historians were wronged. Now, Jiamu should also do it for this It's time to compensate historians for their grievances.
Therefore, when celebrating the anniversary of the former Zhongjinghou, the former Mrs. Zhongjinghou posted a message to the masters of the Jia family, big and small.
Of course, the child is delicate and cannot be separated from his parents. Jia Qi had to go back to his elders, let Lin Daiyu stay at home with the child, and go to the Shijia with his father, brothers and sisters-in-law.
To put it bluntly, it is entirely because the relationship between the historian and the Jia family is not very good.This is still because of the matter of the old Prince Yizhong.Who made the old Prince Yizhong the former heir of the Supreme Emperor?When Prince Lao Yizhong was still the crown prince, the Supreme Emperor not only bestowed important officials in the court to Prince Lao Yizhong as his teacher, but also acquiesced in the family of nobles and nobles to send the eldest son and heir of the family to Prince Lao Yizhong who was still the prince at that time.Later, what happened to the old Prince Yizhong, these people were unlucky.
This is the case with Jia She, who was once the companion of the old Prince Yizhong.It was also thanks to Jia She's limited talent in reading, he was not a core figure in the old Prince Yizhong's circle, and the Supreme Emperor still remembered Jia Daishan's achievements, so he escaped his life, but he had to do it for many years The mascot of the family not only handed over the power of housekeeping to outsiders, but even the children were not allowed to get close.
After all, those who escaped their lives like Jia She could still enjoy the glory are very few.For example, Wang Xifeng's father, Wang Zisheng, was gone long ago, and even his children knew that he was entrusted to his younger brother.
There are also historians. The death of Shi Xiangyun's grandfather is also strange, and even Shi Xiangyun's parents died, which saved the historian.
This is the secret of Jia Shi Wang Xue's four families, but they have never been outsiders. Of course, most of the juniors like Jia Qi who were born later don't know it.
The former Jia Qi didn't know either, but even now, Jia Qi only knew a little bit because he had been in the palace for a long time, and because he was a political adviser, the library in the palace was open to him.
However, I know that I know that Jia Qi has noticed the faint rejection and alienation of the Jia family from historians over the years.Therefore, seeing Mrs. Zhongjinghou and the second daughter of the Shi family who was sitting next to Mrs. Zhongjinghou and peeking at her from time to time, Jia Qi's expression was not very good.
No matter how blind Jia Qi is, he still knows what his daughter Huaichun looks like.Quite today is the first anniversary of Zhongjinghou, and Jia Qi feels uncomfortable when this daughter of Zhongjinghou looks at her like this.
Jia Qi excused that he still had official duties, but he just walked around in front of Mrs. Zhong Jinghou and left.After he learned the reason from Mrs. Xing's mouth at night, he was completely dumbfounded.
Seeing this, Wang Xifeng hurriedly said: "Don't worry, fourth brother, I have already inquired about this matter, it was Yun girl who led the way."
Mrs. Xing said: "Young girl Yun doesn't know what it means. Outsiders don't know, she lives in our house now, would she know the real situation of the fourth daughter-in-law? If it wasn't for Girl Feng's quick response, I would still be kept in the dark."
Wang Xifeng said: "It's also the wife who raised the son well. If it wasn't for the fourth brother's ability, who would come forward so shamelessly? There has never been a woman's family in this world who proposed marriage to the man's family."
Seeing this, Jia Qi said: "Mother, you still need to say hello to the old lady about this matter. As for the historians, their family has not been in contact with our family for a long time, and it is the current relationship between relatives that depends on it." In front of the old lady. In this kind of matter, the son does not come forward, so he will bother the mother and sister-in-law."
Mrs. Jia Qixing and Wang Xifeng didn't think anything could happen.
After all, as long as Lin Daiyu reappeared in the social circle of the capital after Guo Xiao passed away, such rumors would be self-defeating.
So Jia Qi just took it as a joke.Right now he is arguing with the imperial court about the salt field in Shandong.
For Jia Qi, how is the method of boiling salt better than the method of drying salt?The method of boiling salt requires a large amount of iron pots, and if these irons are used to forge weapons, it will definitely increase the combat effectiveness of Wei's army to a higher level.On the other hand, in terms of increasing production, the sun-dried salt method has unique advantages.
However, many officials in the DPRK and China do not agree.They feel that there is nothing wrong with having too much salt, but where can so much salt be sold?If it is sold to the grasslands, it is no different from being an enemy.However, Jia Qi believes that economic means can also be used to attack the salt industry of enemy countries, such as North Korea.If North Korea's salt and grain production are in the hands of the imperial court, will the imperial court still dare to disagree?
Jia Qi quarreled with those ministers in the court hall. Of course, no one was on Jia Qi's side. At least, several officials who had served as salt transport envoys, and many censors at Yushitai expressed that agreed.And Shaodi also knew for the first time that the two positions of Yangzhou patrol salt censor and Yangzhou prefect were called official meat grinders.
Afterwards, when the young emperor had a private conversation with Jia Qi in Funing Hall, he said that he had heard about this for the first time.
Jia Qi said in this way: "Long live, the court needs a lot of money. At present, a large number of people north of the Yellow River are concentrated in the hands of ministers. If the court does not make a living, it is impossible for the people to leave the village and workshops of the ministers. The Salt Law is a short-term method that can bring a lot of benefits to the imperial court, and at the same time, it also allows..."
"I see." The young emperor stopped Jia Qi's words, "Just do what Ai Qing wants. However, the emperor's grandfather only said that only Yantai is allowed to set up a salt farm."
In fact, to build a sun salt farm, it is necessary to conduct an investigation in advance. However, since the Supreme Emperor has spoken, Jia Qi can only obey.As long as there is a salt farm, there will be a steady stream of wealth, and the court will naturally have a lot of taxes.Similarly, with the prosperity of the salt industry, it will also bring a large number of people to Shandong.
Furthermore, Shandong is more suitable for drying salt than Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places.
When he was in Shanghai Prefecture, Jia Qi had been thinking about setting up a salt farm. Now that the emperor has agreed, he will not delay.God knows, this saltworks is just the beginning, he still needs the saltworks for many things.
Jia Qi was busy earning money for the court.
Just like when Emperor Sejong was still around, his mission seems to be to make money for the court.And this kind of thing that is difficult for others is always easy for him, as long as the court lets go and gives him enough authority.
When he got out of the salt field and presented a business with the emperor with excellent grades, the Supreme Emperor suddenly summoned him and asked him insincerely if his family had engaged him.
Jia Qi was stunned.
what?
Only then did Jia Qi realize that something was wrong, and quickly pleaded guilty to the Supreme Emperor, saying that he was married and his wife had just given birth to a son for him, and he had no intention of divorcing his wife.
Anyway, the Taishanghuang looked very ugly at the time, but at least the Taishanghuang still remembered not to turn against Jia Qi, nor to punish Jia Qi and Lin Daiyu for such a reason.
Not long after, when the news came that the two houses of the historian, Baolinghou Mansion and Zhongjinghou Mansion, had been ransacked, Jia Qi felt a faint sense of relief that the stone had fallen to the ground.
Although in the end the historian concluded that the family was confiscated and demoted to common people, but how could the former Mrs. Baolinghou and Mrs. Zhongjinghou accept such a result, and they had to quarrel with Jia's family.
When they saw Lin Daiyu in good shape, and Jia Qi and Lin Daiyu's affectionate appearance, what else did they not understand?It was just another trick by Shi Xiangyun.
In the past, Shi Xiangyun had identified the Jia family and Jia Baoyu's family, Mrs. Jia Zhengwang's wife, but after getting married, even Shi Xiangyun didn't care about her before, and she also knew the importance of relatives to her.Therefore, after marriage, Shi Xiangyun picked up relatives who he didn't care much about in the past.
