Unexpectedly, when he went down to the Yamen the next day, Jia Zheng heard the "happy news" from the big house, and Aunt Li, Jia Amnesty, was actually happy.

It's just an aunt, so it's not a big deal.But who let this be the first news of the general's mansion after the filial piety, and the first child after Jia She took over the family, I heard that Aunt Li was treated very differently, even Jia's mother also rewarded some things, Let her just take care of her life.

Calculating the time, it should be the arrival of the Spring Festival.It seems that the story of the Red Chamber is finally about to begin.It's a good time for Yingchun this time, and Jia Amnesty has taken care of her. Madam Xing can't ignore her anymore, right?Jia Zheng didn't care about others, but now he was a little worried about Jia Lian.

How many children in modern times, because their parents have a second child, feel that their love has been taken away by others, their psychology has become distorted, and they even vent their anger on the newborn head.Jia Zheng didn't want Jia Lian to do the same.In the original book, Jia Lian hardly paid any attention to Yingchun. I don't know if this is the reason.But Jia Zheng knew that he didn't know how long he would stay in this life. It would be better if he could wait for Yingchun to grow up safely and let her have an elder brother to take care of her.

So when Jia Zheng and Jia Zhu were having dinner that day, he inadvertently asked how Jia Zhu and Yuan Chun got along.Jia Zhu's mind is inherently sensitive, such a child is usually careful, so talking about Yuan Chun's interaction with him makes people feel warm and touching.Jia Lian complained softly at the side: "Big sister has never made me a purse."

Jia Zhu smiled and said, "I'll tell your sister tomorrow, let her do it for you too. It's just that if I go out, I don't always think about bringing some gadgets for your sister, but you never think about it once."

"That's exactly the reason. As brothers and sisters, although it's not good to favor one another, but the relationship can also get along. The two of you brothers get along every day, and when you get good things, one thinks about the other. This is very good. It's just Yuanchun It’s so pitiful that you can go out and walk around the courtyard, if you still don’t think about her, how can she know what’s outside?” Jia Zheng made the best use of the situation.

Jia Lian's face turned a little red. After all, Yuan Chun was not his biological sister. Even in Jia's mother's place, she often saw her, but it was just a few words and it was over.Jia Lian is not the kind of Jia Baoyu who misses his sisters, so he forgets it in a blink of an eye.

Jia Zheng didn't make things difficult for him, he just asked him to think more about his sister in the future.He also told them some principles of family and prosperity, and then let them go.It's not that he doesn't want to say more, but just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I heard that a firecracker was thrown at the court today.

His old man wants Yousi to thoroughly investigate whether the military supplies spent by the various armies in the past five years are true! !

The cannon shook all the ministries badly.Speaking of military supplies, they are listed by the Ministry of War, approved by the Ministry of Households, and supervised by the Ministry of Industry.But everyone knows the truth of pulling one to mobilize the whole body.Who knows if he heard some rumors today and wanted to investigate.It's better to see which people in the army are not pleasing to the eye, and use this to deal with them.

For a while, people in all ministries were in panic, and the Ministry of Industry, as the department that supervised construction and allocated funds, was even more in danger.Of course, Jia Zheng, who just arrived, needn't be so nervous, but everyone's faces were heavy, and it's not good for him to be smiling alone, so he could only copy the papers more quietly.

It can only be said that opportunities are really reserved for those who are prepared, and it can also be said that the sky is not in vain.Thanks to Jia Zheng, he rearranged and transcribed the dossiers over the years. If he didn't show them to others in the original form, he would feel ashamed even if he went to Tang Shangshu: Of course, the ones in the past one or two years are not too shabby, but counting forward For three years, the original files were not kept by anyone, and it was not uncommon to see scattered, unaccording to the location or year.

Now when people say that they want to check, what comes out is Jia Zheng's re-copied, neat and clear, so that the people who check the work will have a better impression of the Ministry of Industry, and they will not hesitate to compliment Tang Shangshu.Being able to become a minister, naturally he would not pay much attention to such a small compliment, but he would not take it lightly at all--this thorough investigation is not the original one that only thunders but never rains, but that the third division All move.It's better to be praised than to be faulted directly.

Therefore, Tang Shangshu praised Jia Zheng's good life in front of the visitors, saying that he was down-to-earth.However, Jia Zheng was influenced by the officialdom and knew that leaders should be put first at all times, so he praised Tang Shangshu and Mu Tangguan for their precautions and overall planning.It’s just that the sincerity of what he said made people have to believe that it was the wise leadership of Tang Shangshu and Mu Tangguan that made him copy the files. Do not copy.

The inspector didn't know, how could Tang Shangshu not know?The impression of Jia Zheng is even better: no credit, no pride, no complaints, only do what you can do, and do things so brilliantly, which subordinate would like such a superior?

Tang Shangshu has been an official for many years, so he would not show his admiration for Jia Zheng on his face, just let him continue to do a good job of transcribing—there are so many files in the Ministry of Industry that Jia Zheng cannot be transcribed in a few months .If it weren't for what he was asked to sort out today, he wouldn't have just copied the dossiers of recent years.

But even if Tang Shangshu didn't continue to praise him on the spot, Jia Zheng knew in his heart that he had fallen into Tang Shangshu's eyes.It is unrealistic to be promoted directly, he has only been here for a few days, but it is easy to give himself a decent job.

You said he wasn't worried that Tang Shangshu would fall in this thorough investigation?Just look at the position where Jia Amnesty is placed today.Nowadays, it's not that he cares about other people's hands reaching out to his purse, it's not that he doesn't care, it's that he doesn't care that much.What the old man cares about is that others put their hands into the army!Think about it, who can equip an army of [-], [-] or even more people, who can reach out?Could it be that those who have the ability to do this just want to earn more money?There is no other explanation other than wanting to rebel!

As an emperor, the most fearful thing is that one's own position will be unstable, so now one has to take precautions, and put Jia Amnesty, who doesn't know if he has contacts in the Duke Rong's army, into the Ministry of War—put it under his nose Bottom, let him not move or dare to move.Coupled with the fact that Jia She played the role of a down-and-out kid who yearns for a dandy, and now he has let go of his guard against the Jia family, or to be more precise, the original Rongguo Mansion, that's why he announced the thorough investigation without any warning.

With such conjectures, how could Jia Zheng think that Tang Shangshu would fall?In his memories of several lifetimes, after the new emperor came to the throne, Tang Shangshu still worked hard as his Shangshu.So Jia Zheng copied the files very hard, very willingly, and very devoted.

People in the Ministry of Industry also know the dialogue between Tang Shangshu, Jia Zheng and the inspectors-where in the world is there an impenetrable wall.Everyone recognized Jia Zheng's behavior. It is much better to have a colleague who is not greedy for merit than a colleague who strives for merit everywhere.For a while, Jia Zheng's reputation in the Ministry of Industry was a little bit down because of Jia's pardon, but it got better again, even better than before.Because no one would have thought that the real cause of this thorough investigation was Jia Zheng, who in their eyes only knew how to copy the files.

Jia Zheng was very satisfied with his good reputation, so he had time to pay attention to the progress of the thorough investigation.The most shocking thing was the Ministry of War: the Minister of the Ministry of War was dismissed pending investigation, the right servant went directly to Dali Temple, and nearly half of the lower-level officials were implicated.The situation of the household department is better, and only a left servant and a few upper-level officials have been folded in.The loss of the Ministry of Industry is the least. After all, they are only the executive department, and at most they will bear the crime of negligence.Even so, Zuo Shilang, who was only under Tang Shangshu in the Ministry of Industry, still went to the Dali specialty store, and several doctors who were close to the officials of the Ministry of War also became the body to be punished.

This is just Beijing Central, the unseen army, some people were dismissed, some were transferred back to Beijing Central, and some people "died" in office for no reason.Such news came from time to time, making some prominent families in Beijing feel insecure, and all of them put their tails between their legs.Even those wandering children are controlled by their families, and they dare not go out to mess around easily.

But it's not without benefits. It's just that the price of the land on the edge of Beijing and the shops in Beijing has dropped by more than [-]%.Without him, people who have accidents always have to go to some paths, and these are all done by spending money.But when a person enters Dali Temple or Shuntian Mansion, where can he get rid of it with a little money?There is another one on it who is watching now!That money is not spent like water.With no cash, I naturally used my family's Zhuangzi and shops to cash in for management.

Jia Zheng got the news and told Mrs. Wang that she could buy some: the person hasn't been sentenced yet, if he is waiting to be sentenced, it will be an official's family property, which will be confiscated, and there is nowhere to buy it if he wants to.Buying it now, whether it is for Jia Zhu in the future or as a dowry for Yuan Chun, it is a good item.

Mrs. Wang was still a little hesitant, wondering if the price would be cheaper if she waited a little longer.Jia Zheng only told her: "Who said that the wind needs to be exhausted? It's good to get something cheap, and don't be too greedy. The two children grow up day by day. When they get married, don't we just rely on Gongzhong? Let's do it." Parents are not prepared at all?"

Even Jia Amnesty said the same thing, saying that it would be too early to pay back the money next year, and that more villages and shops would bring more income, and more foundations for future generations.Now that Jia She is going to be a father again, he naturally thinks that the more income the mansion can earn, the better.Hearing Jia Zheng's reminder, he only told people to spend as much money as they had in their hands and buy as much as possible.

So in Beijing, where everyone was in danger, the General's Mansion bought many acres and shops one after another, without attracting people's attention. Now everyone is waiting for the results of a thorough investigation, who cares about those trivial things.

The real big event happened during the winter solstice: the prince who had been raised by him for more than 20 years was abolished, and the prince's party was liquidated by thunder.After this is over, there is an intention to continue to study.Seeing that the situation was over, the prince killed himself in the prince's mansion after killing all the family members of the East Palace.

Today, after learning the news that the prince committed suicide, he will stop for three days.Thinking of the righteousness of the Empress Yuan and his support, he made the former prince a righteous and loyal prince, and ordered him to be buried as a prince.

Today, with an iron fist, people realize that he is not old yet, and he is still in control of everything in this country!People with small thoughts, after seeing the end of Prince Yizhong, quietly withdrew their hands back, and now they have achieved their goals.It's just that no one knows that today is ready to turn off the flames, and no one dares to guess what today is thinking. As long as today doesn't think of itself, it will be a good thing.

Under such an atmosphere, the Chinese New Year has become a matter of life.However, Jia Zhen and You Shi in the Ningguo Mansion have become intimate with the General’s Mansion again since they began to clean up the people today, and now they are trying their best to invite people from the General’s Mansion to Ningguo Mansion for the New Year: "After the sacrifice to the ancestors, it’s just a matter of time for everyone to have a good time together. , if it’s not just the three of us celebrating the new year, what’s the fun? Please ask the old lady to give the granddaughter-in-law this face.” Youshi begged Jiamu with a smile.

Fortunately, in the past six months, Jia's mother had Jia Zheng and Jia Amnesty brainwashed and put on eye drops several times, and she had long been wary of the Ningguo Mansion.Such relatives who are suddenly estranged and suddenly intimate really make people feel bad: "You have to prepare to worship your ancestors. This is a major event for the whole family. How can we trouble you again? You are young, and many things are not important No. As long as you take care of everything in the clan, it’s better than treating me to anything.”

Youshi's face was a little burning, it turned out that the uncle saw that the general's mansion was changing plaques, and he was estranged from the old relatives, he was afraid that he would die if he ate it.Unexpectedly, after the sage's work, some old relatives lost their power, and then they showed the stability of the general's mansion, so they brought themselves to post it again.It's just that if I want to stay away and get closer, why don't I think about whether others are willing or not?Send yourself as a granddaughter-in-law to the old lady, and if they say that you can't bear it, you will have a reputation of persecuting the elders.Now the old lady is only busy talking about things by worshiping her ancestors, which is considered to be giving her face, so that it is not easy for Youshi to ask for advice because she is young and ignorant.

Jia Zhen in the study outside was gagged earlier than Youshi.Jia Zheng didn't even need to say anything, Jia She could deal with him by himself: "Now you are just like me, you are a nobleman, and you have even married two daughters-in-law. You can't say that you are young and ignorant. If you still If you say you are young, what can you tell Ronger to do? Besides, although your father has gone to practice Taoism, he is not ignorant of the situation in Beijing, so he will naturally teach you."

So boy, don't say anything to ask for advice, I don't want to teach you, you know.Jia Zheng almost spit out a sip of tea because of his brother's words, what is called a daughter-in-law has married two, does a person understand the truth, and it has something to do with how many daughters-in-law are married?

But Jia Amnesty's logic is like this. In this room, he is older and has a prominent official position. Who can say that what he said is wrong?Jia Zhen couldn't, so she had to discuss with them about ancestor worship.It's just that he refused even the New Year's Eve dinner, how would Jia Amnesty care about how he worshiped his ancestors?

Jia She only heard Jia She said: "Your branch has always been the patriarch, so it's up to you to arrange it and we obey it. It turned out that we just wanted to live close to each other, and you always have to ask about everything, so we took a big .Now you have your own ideas, just follow your own heart."

Jia Zhen now knew that what she did was not as subtle as she thought, and the people in the General's Mansion were not as magnanimous as they seemed.It's a pity that there is no regret in the world for selling medicine, so I can only go home and complain about myself.He was also afraid that the general's mansion would seize the position of patriarch by taking advantage of this, so he had to gather his energy and make the ritual of worshiping the ancestors more serious.

Later, Jia Amnesty also communicated with Jia's mother, knowing that Jia's mother did not agree, and flattered Jia's mother a few words, which made Jia's mother feel more at ease.Speaking of which, although Jia Mubi is in the inner house, she also knows that nearly half of her old home in Beijing has gone. If the two sons hadn't made up their minds, they would have faded away from their old friends early, and maybe this time they would be implicated. When I went to my own home, I couldn't help but feel afraid, and I didn't want to make any further comments on Brother Jia She's doing things outside.

This is convenient for Jia Zhengxing.He was afraid that Mother Jia would say something to take care of and support each other, so he had to ask their brothers to help those so-called old relatives.You must know that the two of them have often taken over cheap fields and shops from those people's homes.In case Jiamu gets mad and insists on asking them to return it, even if they don't, the family who celebrates the New Year will have to get very angry, right?

In this way, the General's Mansion closed its doors, and the whole family lived in harmony for a year. When the doors were opened again, it was already the day when the Jia Zheng brothers went to the government office again.Jia Amnesty continued to take a small antique to sit in the military department every day, but there was a change in Jia Zheng's place. He had other errands besides copying files.

On the first day of the new year, Tangguan Mu directly asked Jia Zheng to be in charge of the military supplies for the Pingan Prefecture garrison from now on!When Jia Zheng heard the place name, he pondered for a moment, but he thanked Tangguan Mu for his cultivation, expressing his determination to do a good job.Back at my office, I found the dossier of Ping'an Prefecture and studied it carefully.

There is no way not to be careful, although he has withdrawn his hands now, but it turns out that the garrisons have also been dismantled by him.For the new generals of the various armies, if they want to win the hearts of the soldiers, making people fed and clothed is the first step.Whether this first step can be taken well depends on the military supplies allocated by the Ministry of Industry.If Jia Zheng didn't have a clear grasp of how many soldiers there were in Ping'an Prefecture over the years and how much they needed, he wouldn't be able to run away if something happened.

Back home, Jia Zheng directly asked Jia Amnesty to go to the study outside.There is no way, the Ping'an Prefecture in the original book is simply a reminder for Jia's family, so he has to ask Jia She for the truth.Who knew that Jia Amnesty didn't take it seriously: "Our father left in a hurry, where did he tell us about his connections? You didn't believe what I said last time, so why ask again?"

Jia Zhengxin said who told you that in the original book, Jia Lian had to go to Pingan Prefecture to do business again and again.But he could only say on the face: "I'm not afraid that if there is really an old man from my father, and I don't know him face to face, it will be embarrassing when he comes to the Ministry to ask for military supplies. Others don't say that we don't know, and we think it's my father who has gone. Let's just ignore people, and it's not good to hurt my father's reputation."

When it came to Jia Daishan's reputation, Jia Amnesty was much more concerned than Jia Zheng. He sat there and thought about it, before he said: "Speaking of which, there are still some people in Ping'an Prefecture, and they are not regarded as my father's subordinates. The veterans my father fought in. Those people were all wounded by the war, what can that little pension money do? My father often sends some money and food from home to help."

Jia Zheng has a big head.It should be said that Jia Daishan did this matter very benevolently, taking care of the soldiers he once led, even if he left, he did not forget.But this is just the opinion of ordinary people, not the opinion of the supreme emperor!In the eyes of that person, it may have to be interpreted as, you privately help a group of war-wounded veterans, is this a kindness?

So there was a good reason for the next emperor to copy the Rongguo Mansion: A nobleman who didn't know if he still had connections in the army wanted to offer favors to disabled veterans. This was a proper way to buy people's hearts.In order to prevent them from doing something, they have to copy it first to prevent problems before they happen!

So in the original book, the Rongguo Mansion was dumped in such a muddle-headed manner.But who would admit that he is a gentleman who comes from a family that has been dumped?Even if you are a gentleman, I am afraid that Jia Zheng was not exiled like the original owner, but just clicked - I didn't know if you had connections in your family, but now that another gentleman came out, the appeal would be even greater.

"Brother," Jia Zheng could only start with Brother Cheap again: "Although Father's move is kind, but I'm afraid it will attract taboos from above, so let's make a point."

Jia Amnesty didn't understand: "The pension from the court is not enough, our family can subsidize it a bit, and we don't use money from the treasury, what is there to be taboo about?"

Jia Zheng explained: "It is precisely because the pensions given by the court are not enough that we have to accept the discount. If someone who cares doesn't talk about it, it will become our family's dissatisfaction with the court and gratitude to those veterans. It is a name of resentment." It's impossible to run away."

Now Jia Amnesty has to weigh the severity.It's just that his thoughts are simple: "Now the sage also talks to me from time to time, can't I talk to the sage face to face?"

"Inappropriate. You have written the scriptures, and the sage has a verdict, which means that this matter has been cleared up. Even in the future, we can have a basis for defense. But if you explain it to the sage face to face, who can prove what you said? However, the saint agreed again?"

This is really hard to say.

Jia Amnesty has an advantage now, that is, he can listen to Jia Zheng's persuasion. After all, he has benefited from acting on Jia Zheng's ideas several times, right?So the two discussed and wrote the notes again.And handed over the papers through the most conventional channels, so that as many people know about the Jia family's healing of the wounded soldiers, the better.

This is the case with many things, the more you cover it up, the more people will treat you as a guilty conscience, so it is better to put it on the surface and seek justice to make people feel at ease.No, although there is no reply yet, anyone who has seen the excerpts should praise the Jia family's benevolence-this matter has been done for many years, and it is not for others to see.Spending money to do such a thing that does not see benefits, but still persisting in this way, and did not stop because Jia Daishan left, what is it but benevolence and righteousness?

Looking at the booklet in his hand now, he knew that he had to approve it if he didn't approve it. Not only did he want to approve it, but he also had to give a good compliment to the Jia brothers-this pair of brothers can not change their father's way, which is what I want to see today!

So within a few days after the opening, the General's Mansion received another imperial decree, still two: Today, the Jia She brothers have been promoted to one level of official respectively!Jia Zheng was already a Yuanwailang from the fifth rank, and Jia She was from the third rank. Well, even if he was from the third rank, he was still an idler from the Ministry of War with no work to do.Now not only the people in the General’s Mansion were boiling, but even the official circles in central Beijing were shaken a little: Although the plaque in the General’s Mansion was changed to a lower level, both brothers got real jobs and were promoted at the same time , only looking at the holy family, this family can no longer be regarded as a general declining honor.

This time, Mother Jia didn't say she wanted to have a banquet, but the family members of Jia She and Jia Zheng's current colleagues came to congratulate her one after another, so flattering that the old lady almost forgot that her grandchildren were going back to Jinling for the entrance examination.
