The gentleman's way

The news that Jun Changning became the servant of the household department shocked everyone. Although they knew that their son would be promoted, the household department is a place that controls the wealth and power of the world. Being able to enter here represents the emperor's trust in you.There is another one, the servant of the household department is an official of the third rank, that is to say, Jun Changning ushered in another second jump.

From top to bottom, the Jun family felt that their son, husband, and young master could take on this task. Have you not seen the changes in Qinguan and Changhai over the years? It was Jun Changning who stepped forward step by step. There are some discussions, but they all admire Jun Changning's methods. Another thing, everyone knows that Jun Changning and the emperor are classmates. Given the position of servant of the household department, no one has anything to say, even jealousy has to be hidden in the heart.

Jun Changning's official position is not very eye-catching, but in comparison, the rewards of several members of the Jun family make people envious.First of all, Mrs. Zhang, as the biological mother of Jun Changning and the eldest wife of the Jun family, logically speaking, she should be a third-rank madam. After all, there are rules and righteousness. Awarded to Shuren.But as promulgated by the emperor's imperial decree, Zhang's head actually had a first-rank lady, that was a first-rank lady, and there were not many of them in the entire Yan Dynasty!

The Jun family was secretly startled, and felt that she had heard it wrong, but the emperor's words even cleared her doubts: "I lived in Qingshan Academy when I was young, and Mrs. Zhang took care of me, just like my adoptive mother. Mrs. Yipin, to repay the old kindness."

As soon as the imperial decree came out, those who should have had opinions in the court shut up. They all noticed that the birth of the current emperor had suffered a lot from Prince Xianchun and his concubine. If Mrs. Zhang was really kind to the emperor Well, the emperor wants to give a woman a royal wife who only takes a salary and has no real power, so why should they rush to attract people's attention.

In fact, there is another one, Yan Hong's action softened his original cold and severe attitude a lot. If he had a soft heart towards his old benefactor, such an emperor would naturally be much easier to serve than a ruthless and cold one.Even at this time, many people speculated whether the reason why Jun Changning gained the emperor's trust was due to the Zhang family's contribution.Without Mrs. Zhang's knowledge, she had shouldered some favors on behalf of her son.

Mrs. Zhang murmured in her heart that she really didn't take much care of the current Holy Majesty. At that time, she just knew that her son had a good friend in the academy, so she added an extra copy when sending things.In her heart, she even hated this friend a little, because it was because of him that her son rushed back several times during the holidays, just to prevent that person from spending the holidays alone.Now holding someone else's imperial order, Zhang felt a little guilty, feeling that she was nothing more than a little effort, it was really insincere, the emperor took it to heart.

Yan Hong's action has indeed won Zhang's heart, but he doesn't know that if a woman finds out in the future, her first-rank imperial order is bought by her son's life. Among the things he brought over, the only thing that left a deep impression on him was Jun Changning, who braved the cold and shivered and rushed to the academy to spend the Lantern Festival with him.

Compared with the Zhang family, the rewards for Lord Jun are even more inexplicable. In the Yan Dynasty, dukes, princes and princes could not be divided at will, even the royal family, let alone titles with different surnames.Yan Hong wanted to please Jun Changning, but he didn't want to flatter him, so naturally he wouldn't do anything irrational.It's just that Lord Jun, the general of the imperial decree, praised him a lot. He taught his children well, what kindness and righteousness, even if there is no reward, it is enough for Lord Jun to be happy, let alone he still has a lot of rewards.

In contrast, Gu Yuhe's third-grade gentleman is extremely inconspicuous, but she was not someone who cared too much about these things. From the imperial decree, she could tell that the emperor must be satisfied with her husband in every possible way, and naturally she was also happy .Besides, when Rational married her husband, she never thought that one day her imperial mandate would be higher than that of her own mother. She naturally had nothing to say about her mother-in-law Zhang's first-rank imperial mandate.

With the imperial decree, the Jun family was almost leveled by those visiting relatives and friends. When Jun Changning won the first prize in the examination, these people were still thinking in their hearts that even if they could study, they might not be able to become high officials. There are not many champions who spend their whole lives in the Imperial Academy, unable to do anything other than study books.When Jun Changning went to Qinguan, these people comforted him openly and laughed at him secretly.

When Jun Changning became the magistrate of Changhai, quite a few people came to make friends with him.Fortunately, Jun Changning is the magistrate of Changhai after all. Although Mrs. Zhang is not the official's wife, she has dealt with officials a lot over the years. Her knowledge is not very good. The only thing she knows is not to cause trouble for her son. About his son They all kept silent, just being polite on the surface, talking about rouge and gouache, but those people were helpless.

Now that Yan Hong is here, everyone knows that the Jun family has shown their face in front of the emperor, and Jun Changning has returned to the capital, and now he is the servant of the household department. More people came, those who talked about feelings talked about feelings, and those who gave gifts gave gifts, which completely disturbed Zhang's tranquility.

Even Gu's side couldn't sit still. Gu Tingxing had a good mental quality, and even praised Cheng Yuewu for his vision. Although Cheng Yuewu didn't say anything, he was obviously satisfied. This promising apprentice can still think about his unknown master, and treat himself with respect, which is really something to be proud of.Cheng Yue has no friends around, and Gu Tingxing and Gu Tingxing just make up a pair when they have nothing to do.

Mrs. Gu went to Jun's house, seeing her daughter's radiant face, she was satisfied but also a little jealous. Of course, she was not facing her own daughter, but Mrs. Zhang, who was also radiant. Thinking about it, she was an official Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Zhang is just a businesswoman, but now she is much higher than herself.But Mrs. Gu is not such a narrow-minded person, it is naturally better for the in-laws to live well.

Compared to these, the Gu family is more worried about Jun Changning's situation in the capital. Now that the Jun family is getting better and better, the help they have given to the Jun family has become less and less. In fact, the Gu family has indeed not helped Jun Changning along the way. , Will the other party gradually look down on his daughter because of this?After thinking about it, Gu felt that this matter could not be delayed any longer. Who knows if someone in the capital would have taken a fancy to Jun Changning and would rather send his daughter there as a concubine.

Mrs. Gu is a scheming person, and she didn't take away Mrs. Zhang's interest. She just reminded Jun Changning that he was alone in the capital. If his daughter wasn't there, he wouldn't have a wife in charge. At this time, he didn't know if he could handle those officials. , and no one takes care of the body or something.When Mrs. Zhang heard that it was okay, she felt uneasy after thinking about it, and immediately decided to go with her. On the one hand, she could see her son whom she had not seen for a long time, and on the other hand, she could take care of her daughter-in-law and unborn grandson.

Mrs. Zhang wants to leave, so naturally she won't feel at ease leaving Master Jun to a group of wolf-like aunts. After all, Master Jun is old now, but who knows if under the efforts of those goblins, he will produce another concubine? When the children came, it would be fine if they were daughters, a dowry was given away, but if they were sons, they would not be able to share their own son's things in the future.Thinking about it, he encouraged Master Jun to go with him.

In fact, Master Jun is also a little bit moved. It is good that his son has a good future, but he has not seen his son for more than half a year. There is another one, the eldest daughter is also in the capital. It has been a long time since he saw her. .After Zhang's three or two sentences, he decided to follow along and take a look. Anyway, the aunts just watched the domestic affairs of the Jun family, and it was the same for them to send the ledger to the capital for business outside.

So before Jun Changning didn't know, a group of Jun's family had already packed their things, and the mighty team started to set off.The emperor knew about this scene, but it was a good thing for him. Mrs. Zhang and Master Jun would definitely not allow the pregnant daughter-in-law to get too close to her son. It was better than letting Gu Yuhe come back alone.

90, New Deal

After the Jun family arrived in the capital, Jun Changning couldn't spend much time with the family he hadn't seen for a long time. Yan Hong simply used him as a servant of the household department as a companion, and it was fine to go up and down. Most of the time, he has to be invited into the palace for talks, and most of them are about the New Deal. Jun Changning has no excuse to shirk.

Even so, everyone from Master Jun to Gu Yuhe can understand it. From their point of view, it is the best thing for their son and husband to be valued by the emperor. Back then, Gu Tingxing was just a small county magistrate, and he was very busy every day. Now that Jun Changning is the third-rank household servant, it is normal to be busier.

Besides, Jun Changning was born out of nowhere, and Ming Huanghuang was a close minister of the emperor. The emperor trusted the court and saw him in a few days. Jun Changning was also handsome and well-spoken. Although he was younger, his political achievements But they are all real. Except for some stunned youths, no one will stand against him. People who are promoted by the emperor will make things difficult for him. Isn't it against the emperor?

In this way, there are naturally many people who want to get close to Jun Changning. Today's emperor Yan Hong has jumped from the position of General Zhenbei to
