The Pearl of the Prosperous Age of Red Mansions
Chapter 86 Being too stubborn
What is the situation.
Xiao Ze knew that the two sons of Chengjun Wang were greedy for money, lustful and inactive, so this time the branch family is eager to find someone to testify. I don't know what they have in mind, so it's good to have a look.
The other two are Prince Lizong and King Sujun. The former is in charge of the clan mansion, and the latter is the younger brother of King Chengjun. It is reasonable to ask them to work together, but Prince Lizong is Kang Zhenyuan. His grandfather, the prince and old concubine Li Zong who served as mediators for Zhao Feng and Yuan Chun back then, this time, these three witnesses, two of them can be regarded as Zhao Feng's side, Xiao Ze sneered in his heart, if there is no ghost here, That's amazing!
On the day when the family property was divided, the accounts were brought out and announced on the spot, the warehouse was opened, and the silver, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc. inside were all divided into three parts, and they were shown to the three witnesses present one by one according to the accounts. The king of Chengjun is rich, but the property in front of him is really shabby.
But the accounts are clear, and both the accountant and the manager in charge of the keys to the warehouse have testified that this is indeed the case. King Su is a good man and has no heart, and he still feels that his brother's family has become empty for so many years. It's a pity, but Lizong The prince and Xiao Ze are not oil-efficient lamps, they are like mirrors in their hearts, probably after so long, these two colluded with the people in the family, and moved the warehouse to a large extent, right?
The two are just witnesses, they came out to uphold justice when several parties disagreed about the division of the family property, but now Zhao Feng didn't even have the slightest objection at all, and he just registered and took these things to leave, and they didn't say much , When Xiao Ze and Jia Zhu talked about it, Jia Zhu also felt emotional.
"Don't look at Zhao Feng's background as a rough man, but his heart is not rough. It's just that he doesn't want to share the property of the old county king, so he pretends to be confused." However, Jia Zhu really likes this kind of wealth that is not his own. Well, a man has the ability to save a family business by himself, so why always worry about the inheritance of his father's generation.
"You, brother-in-law, really look after your brother-in-law. I'm tired of hearing it." Xiao Ze raised his eyebrows, and Jia Zhu gave him a glare.
"I don't think you need to think about the next shop, just open a vinegar jar shop."
Xiao Ze laughed: "Speaking of vinegar jars, someone really overturned the jars of vinegar. I heard that your nephew is Jia Rong, who got a second-class Jinshi in this subject, and hangs around Su Zhengqin all day long. Meng Xian was so angry that he begged me for help these two days and asked the Ministry of Officials to send Jia Rong to Lingnan as a county magistrate."
"The county magistrate is exactly what he should be, but Lingnan is exempt." Jia Zhu also laughed when he heard that.
Ever since Jia Rong realized that he couldn't just study hard, he has been very concerned about other common affairs besides books, and he has also pondered the way to be an official. After all, according to the routine, his ranking is not enough to enter the Hanlin, so he should be sent to the county magistrate To begin with, Jia Rong used to be high-spirited and thought that there was a solution in the book that could solve everything, but now that he knew it was not possible, he was really distressed.
Jia Rong and Jia Qiang said this, and Jia Qiang was happy: "Isn't the magistrate of the county just promoted to the hall to ask questions? The storyteller always said that once you pat the gavel, you will be promoted to the county government hall, so you should listen to it more." !"
Jia Rong thought so too, he didn't go to listen to the books, but looked for some public case novels in the market, it was the first time he came into contact with these idle books, and he was fascinated by them, when the Chinese New Year, Su Zheng Qin Zheng came to visit Jia's house. Jia Zhu and Su Zhengqin had a good relationship now, and they often walked around. When Jia Rong knew about it, his eyes lit up.
Su Zhengqin is the Governor of the Shuntian Mansion, and he is famous for his ability to solve cases with ease. Jia Rong has been fascinated by these things recently, so he came out to greet Su Zhengqin. Su Zhengqin also knew that there was a second-class Jinshi in Jia's mansion. He looked at the child in front of him. Young, still very likable, and well-spoken, he neither has the dandyism he hates the most, nor is he arrogant because of his youth, so he secretly nodded in his heart.
Hearing the child's words again, it was all related to asking questions, Su Zhengqin felt a little puzzled, and only after asking about it did he find out that Jia Rong was preparing to become a magistrate in the future, Su Zhengqin couldn't help but laughed and felt that this child had Prospects, although most of the new subjects are released to magistrates, but this is also for the poor.
For a family like Jia Rong, as long as they entrust their connections to spend money, they can naturally stay in Beijing and start as a small official. There are so many official positions in the six departments and nine ministers, why bother to go to a remote village outside to become a county magistrate?
But Jia Rong didn't think so. Not only did he want to be the magistrate, but he also wanted to be a good magistrate to solve the problems of the people. Su Zhengqin naturally took a look at Jia Ronggao after hearing this, and was also happy to guide him. The Ministry of Officials had not assigned Jia Rong an official position, so Jia Rong wandered around with Su Zhengqin all day long.
The Yamen was opened, Shuntian Mansion had a case, and Jia Rong also begged Su Zhengqin to learn from him, but Su Zhengqin didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that Jia Rong would follow the officials to search for a few days to try. He retreated when he felt tired, but Jia Rong really didn't. He was quite excited before and after running. Later, he followed Wu Zuo to see the bloody scene. Although his face was very bad, he persisted.
Su Zhengqin saw him like this, so he acquiesced to him, and now Meng Xian was offended, which is why Xiao Ze said just now.
Jia Zhu was also very satisfied with Jia Rong's attitude. At this time, the whole Jia's mansion also knew, and it was spread from top to bottom, saying that there would be a small miracle in the mansion in the future. When the news finally came from the official department, Sure enough, Jia Rong was appointed as the magistrate of Pingnan County, Jiangxi Province.
Jia Rong was going to take office immediately, and he was very excited, and the family was busy. Jia Jing chose a nanny and two maids to take care of Jia Rong's daily life, and gave Jiao Da to Jia Rong, so that Jiao Da could help outside. After Jia Rong was busy, Jia Zhu also selected four proper people who had been in Jia's mansion for many years to accompany him for protection. The most useful ones were the two middle-aged men sent by Su Zhengqin. The men, Chen Long and Chen Hu.
The two brothers were originally from Jiangxi, and they learned a few kung fu moves. They used to be performers in the rivers and lakes, and later they were corrupted in the capital. Grateful, and he didn't want to eat the same bowl of rice from the bottom of his heart, so he decided to devote himself to being a servant in the government office, and Su Zhengqin accepted the two of them.
They have been with Su Zhengqin for so many years and have helped handle a lot of cases. It can be said that they have rich experience. When Jia Rong was learning from Su Zhengqin, he was also very familiar with the two brothers of the Chen family. Going back to Jia Rong and ordering the magistrate of Pingnan County, Su Zhengqin thought of the origins of the two brothers, so he asked them to come and ask them if they wanted to follow Jia Rong back to their origins.
The two of them have a good relationship with Jia Rong, and they like this young master very much. When they heard Mr. Su's words, they remembered that they hadn't returned to their hometown for many years, which really aroused a lot of homesickness, so they decided to leave Jia Rong This trip is also used as Jia Rong's team.
Having been in the yamen for many years, the two brothers know a lot of twists and turns, and they have helped Jia Rong a lot by following them this time.
It was a trivial matter for Jia Rong to go to Pingnan County to take up the post, but Jia Zhu understood in his heart that Jiangxi is adjacent to Fujian, and now Fuzhou Prefecture is under Shi Shaokuan's governance to make the emperor's plan a great success. Furthermore, there is no doubt that Jiangxi is a good choice, because next to Jiangxi is Jiangnan.
Whether Jia Rong is going to Pingnan County is a real talent or a short-lived mediocrity, it all depends on him. Although Jia Zhu said so, he has confidence in Jia Rong in his heart.
After Jia Rong arrived in office, the second day after Jia Rong passed the family letter to return to peace was the Great Court Meeting. There was nothing important to do at the court meeting. Then he said: "I intend to transfer Su Zhengqin to be the governor of Liangjiang, but I have always been troubled by the position of Governor of Shuntian Prefecture. Now that the shipping business is on the right track, if I transfer you to Governor of Shuntian Prefecture, there will be someone in your heart." Choose to take over the job of the Maritime Governor?"
Chapter 110: The most difficult thing to do in the government office is to be a young man with a hot blood in the army
Governor of Shuntian Prefecture? !Jia Zhu couldn't help being taken aback, all the affairs of his shipping office had just started on the right track, and now that he was letting go, Jia Zhu was really worried about who would take over, because if something went wrong, everything he had done before would be in vain.
But the emperor has already said this, Jia Zhu thought for a while, and then said: "The Haiyun yamen is complicated and complicated. For a moment, I really can't think of a candidate to take over. I don't know what the emperor is about the errand of the governor of Shuntian Prefecture." Charter?"
By reassigning Su Zhengqin to be the governor of Liangjiang, Jia Zhu can already be sure that Jiangxi will be the next step the emperor wants to move. At present, there are too few people the emperor can trust, so Su Zhengqin is undoubtedly the best candidate, but Shuntian Mansion, Jia Zhu Some headaches, the most difficult government official in the whole world is probably the Shuntian government.
Shuntian Mansion is at the foot of the Son of Heaven. It stands to reason that it should be much better than the other remote villages in all aspects. What's more, the prefect is actually equivalent to the chief envoy of a province. There are many benefits, but in fact, there are many messy things behind this benefit.
There were few disturbances in the capital, but those who dared to stir up troubles, which ones were ordinary people, were basically the children of the rich and powerful. The light ones were grudges and troubles, and the serious ones might even involve endless disputes in the court.
If you want to make this governor of Shuntian Mansion stable, you must bear the brunt of listening to the six ways and seeing all directions. Secondly, you must either walk around in the middle like an old fox, or be like Su Zhengqin, with a stern face and relatives who don’t care about you. Those who belong to the little princes and princes are all criminals and prisoners here.
However, it is really not up to Jia Zhu to decide what kind of governor he wants to be, it depends on what the emperor has in mind.
Sure enough, after Jia Zhu finished speaking, the emperor smiled wryly: "The current safety of the capital depends on Su Zhengqin. If there is a way, I don't want to transfer Mr. Su away. Since I ascended the throne, among these brothers of mine, there is no one who is restless. There are more and more of them.”
This is really the truth, Jia Zhu also sighed in his heart when he heard this, how many people were dissatisfied and tried to trip Xiao Yuan when he was awarded the crown prince, at that time they also had no idea.
Although the late emperor loved and trusted Xiao Yuan very much because of the merit of saving him, how many people have ascended the throne from the prince to the emperor in the past dynasties?The crown prince is the chair with the hottest ass in the whole world. When trust turns into suspicion, it is a terrible thing.
No one could have imagined that the former emperor, who was considered to be in good health, would pass away so quickly. Xiao Yuan was able to ascend the throne smoothly. At that time, the former emperor's princes had not made much progress, waiting to see the young emperor. There is peace and action, and now that time has passed, many people are ready to move.
Thinking of this, Jia Zhu couldn't help but feel moved. At this time, Su Zhengqin was transferred away. Could it be that the emperor meant to let this group of people become wild horses and stir up a mess in the capital, and then wipe them all out?
This method saves trouble, but Xiao Yuan, Jia Zhu, knows that although he is impatient, he is also soft-hearted and affectionate. This kind of thing is definitely not something he can do. If the emperor really wants to do this now, Jia Zhu There was a deep chill in Zhu's heart. From now on, he really wanted to keep the name "Xiao Yuan" in his memory forever, and the person in front of him could only be "The Emperor" from now on.
Thinking of this, Jia Zhu thought about it, and decided to test the emperor's intentions, but the words should not be too straightforward. Jia Zhu thought about it, and then said: "There is a saying among the people that the emperor is barefoot. Don't be afraid of wearing shoes, Mr. Su's parents died when he was young, his wife died and he didn't reunite, he was the only one in the family, he didn't even have any children, when he took office as governor of the Shuntian Prefecture, he was homeless and poor. No matter how many people he offends, he will not be afraid at all, just relying on this, the minister is far behind."
The emperor couldn't help but raised his eyebrows and smiled after hearing this: "I know you have a lot of worries, you have been careful since you were young, but at that time you offended many people for your father, why were you not afraid at that time, and now you come to me to make grievances , but don't worry, since I let you be the Governor of Shuntian Mansion, I will be the biggest backer behind you, no matter who it is, you don't have to be scruples, let me rule them well!"
After hearing this, Jia Zhu's heart was completely at ease, and the same smile appeared on her face as before: "With the emperor's words, the subject is equivalent to having a Shangfang sword, otherwise, if you are tied up, you will have to fight!" It's dead."
The emperor laughed, showing the cunning that belonged to Xiao Yuan that Jia Zhu was most familiar with: "Shangfang sword? Uncle Nine Emperors is a ready-made Shangfang sword. Take a look at the private affairs of the two of you these years." I don't know at all? You can hide it from your father and queen mother, but you can't hide it from my eyes."
Jia Zhu's face was slightly hot. The relationship between him and Xiao Ze had been hidden all these years. He had to be wary of his family's opinion. Xiao Ze had such a queen mother who loved her youngest son and still couldn't forget to hold her grandson. Ze naturally didn't dare to expose their feelings to others, but he wanted to hide this kind of thing, and his daily speech and behavior also showed some clues. When Xiao Yuan was still the fifteenth prince, he made good friends with the two of them again. Xiao Yuan is so clever, he has already sensed that something is wrong, and now he is able to tell the truth.
It's really rare for Xiao Yuan to see Jia Zhu blush, and he can't help being playful, his Long Wei has always been strict with others, and Xiao Yuan has never put on such airs with the people close to him.
The first is Chang Xier, this little eunuch has a close relationship with him, the second is Xiao Ze, and the third is Jia Zhu. In fact, Xiao Yuan also trusts and is close to Lin Ruhai, but Lin Ruhai is not the same as the above. , Lin Ruhai is his tutor, and he showed a little less majestic appearance in front of Lin Ruhai, and Lin Ruhai began to fulfill the responsibility of being a tutor, and began to discipline him.
"In the past, I wondered why Uncle Nine Emperors, who was so romantic in the world, suddenly became self-cultivated and extinct in love. After I observed it, I found out that he was hanged on a tree. When you first saw Uncle Nine Emperors, you were like a rat. Seeing it like a cat, I looked at it again later, ah, the status of the two of you is reversed, I think Uncle Jiuhuang is the most impatient with others, but he is obedient to you."
Xiao Yuan spoke with such high spirits that he didn't even use "Zhen", he just came and went, his face was still beaming, but at the end of the speech, Xiao Yuan gradually became depressed.
"Uncle Nine Emperors has always been flirtatious, but he is so devoted when he is devoted. The taboo relationship between the two of you can still be devoted, but it is difficult for me to have such a luxury in this life."
Seeing Xiao Yuan moaning and sighing, Jia Zhu felt uncomfortable, but others could not persuade him about such things. Jia Zhu knew that ever since Xiao Yuan got married, he and his cousin Deng's husband and wife were the most affectionate. Now that the national funeral has passed, many ministers began to Shang Zhezi asked Zhengxiu to fill the harem, Xiao Yuan's sigh probably came from this, but everyone in the world can be devoted, only the emperor can't.
"These things that the emperor has done since inheriting the great treasure will be good things that will last forever in the future. How can everything go well in life? The emperor was the most open-minded person in the past. Why is it sad to be a child today? See, I have to preach again." Jia Zhu knew that Uncle Lin was the one Xiao Yuan feared the most, so he comforted him in this way.
Sure enough, Xiao Yuan's mood improved a lot, the monarch and his ministers chatted about some childhood things again, Xiao Yuan also left Jia Zhu to eat together in the palace, until the sun was setting, Jia Zhu did not leave the palace, at this time It was getting late, so Jia Zhu didn't go to the yamen, but went back to the mansion directly.
After pondering for a long time in the study, Jia Zhu now has a peace of mind about the matter of Shuntian Mansion, so she put it aside for now. The other difficult thing now is to replace him as the governor of the sea, because most of the sea government They are all officials from the original Water Transport. Although there are not many factions in it, they are not much better.
This is the case where there are people. Jia Zhu is most afraid of choosing non-human beings, turning a good yamen into a battlefield where you fight against each other, and then the smog will ruin the good shipping. Wouldn't it be a waste of all previous efforts.
Thinking of her two deputies, Jia Zhu frowned even tighter. These two are quite capable, but they are not bad at intrigue. Either one will give each other eye drops in front of him from time to time, and choose them Which one came up, Jia Zhu was not at ease.
But if other people are not familiar with the affairs of the maritime yamen, it would be difficult to convince the public by airborne, and it would even delay the matter. Thinking of this, Jia Zhu suddenly thought of Xiao Zelai, if it was him, it would be easy.
Before, he would hesitate to recommend Xiao Ze to the emperor, but now he has no scruples. In fact, it is a good thing that Xiao Yuan knows the relationship between the two of them.
The next day Jia Zhu went to see the emperor and recommended Xiao Ze. Although the emperor joked a little, he knew in his heart that Xiao Ze was the best candidate at the moment.
On the day when Su Zhengqin was transferred, there were quite a few changes in the personnel affairs of the imperial court, except that Su Zhengqin was transferred to be Governor of Liangjiang, Jia Zhu was transferred to be governor of Shuntian Prefecture, Xiao Ze was appointed as Governor of Shipping, and Guo Shiyun was summoned back to Beijing. Xiao Cheng was changed to defend the Duhufu, and Zhao Feng was promoted to the post of commander of Shenjingwei.
The faces of all the ministers in the court hall were extremely exciting, some were envious, jealous, thoughtful, and of course gloating. Many people secretly thought that Guo Shiyun seemed to be unlucky. One of the great officials in the frontier region was summoned back to Beijing, and he did not mention any official position. The position of Commander Xiao who was transferred could be filled by Zhao Feng. Isn't this to clean up Guo Shiyun or something?
While everyone was discussing, Jia Zhu and Su Zhengqin made a handover. Su Zhengqin explained all the affairs clearly, and Jia Zhu's face turned green when he heard it.
"You said, you want to take away the officials, yamen servants, clerks, and masters?! Then you leave me an empty yamen? Are you kidding me!"
Su Zhengqin has always been serious, but now he heard Jia Zhu's words, but now he showed a smile: "I never joke, I will take these people away, just these few days, quickly find a group of people For your own use, otherwise when you officially take over, you will be a poor commander."
No matter how helpless Jia Zhu was, he first invited Zhao Ningchuan to be his master, and then brothers Gao Yong and Gao Wu acted as police officers on errands. It was Lin Ruhai who recommended him an assistant who was the magistrate of Hangzhou, and Jia Zhu gathered the staff of the yamen.
Not to mention that Su Zhengqin took away the entire yamen team, Meng Xian, who also took Jia Zhu and Xiao Ze's behind-the-scenes masters of the Zuiyun team, master of opera scripts, invisible stage pillars, and drill masters, etc. After leaving, Xiao Ze and Jia Zhu were used to being hands-off shopkeepers of the theater troupe, now that Meng Xian followed Su Zhengqin, the two of them had to find someone to take charge of the theater troupe.
Jia Zhu didn't need to bother about this, someone volunteered, it was none other than Liu Xianglian who had been in the theater troupe since she was a child, this young master of the Liu family is now Meng Xian's direct disciple, and he is very popular in Zuiyun troupe, Although he is young, everyone listens to him.
After taking care of the affairs of the yamen and the theater troupe, Jia Zhu and Xiao Ze had a bite of food at the Zuiyun Building. He was busy until the afternoon, so he didn't even bother to eat lunch. Now he was really hungry.
After eating and resting for a while, they drank some tea again. When Jia Zhu and Xiao Ze mentioned Xiao Yuan's joke, Xiao Ze squinted his eyes and said, "It's good that Xiao Shiwu knows, so don't worry about him making trouble for us when the time comes." .”
Jia Zhu nodded, and at this moment Xiao Ze said again: "By the way, do you still remember the matter of the division of the property of the Chengjun Wang family? At that time, I kept thinking that the Chengjun Wang must have left behind. I understand, that Eunuch Chen who was specially ordered to stay in Zhao Feng's house to support his life, he is actually the manager of Chengjun Wang's small treasury. The two sons of Chengjun Wang don't know about this. , really lucky."
Jia Zhu couldn't help being slightly stunned when she heard this, and then she became happy in her heart. Zhao Feng's family is very poor, and the farm is only so small. It's getting more and more embarrassing.
The movement and favor among colleagues are indispensable, so the expenses during the festivals will be high, not to mention that from time to time, colleagues' fathers celebrate their birthdays, children's birthdays, marriages and so on. It's a matter of human feelings, which one doesn't have to be paid for?
The smoother the official career, the more favors there are. Zhao Feng still refuses to accept the foreign money, so there is no improvement at all. Employing Yuan Chun to the Jia family has emptied the Zhao family's wealth. In the past, this was much better.
Now, what the Zhao family lacks the most is really the most vulgar money. It has to be said that the actions of the king of Chengjun really made the Zhao family suffer from drought for a long time.
In this way, Yuanchun can relax a little bit, and Jia Zhu is also happy. After returning to Jia's mansion, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Jia Cong looking out at the door, and saw that he had entered the door. Jia Cong took three steps. And ran over in two steps.
"Brother, I'm waiting for you. There is something you must help me, brother." After Jia Cong finished speaking in a hurry, Jia Zhu and him walked inside, and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Rong'er is going to be the county magistrate, and I don't even have a shadow of my job. Today I heard that my cousin-in-law is going to guard the Duhu Mansion. I wonder if I can find an errand in the army to my cousin-in-law. Brother, you also know that I have always wanted to go to the battlefield and become a general in the future!" Jia Cong said excitedly, but Jia Zhu just nodded when he heard it.
"I know, but this matter is not sure right away. Let me ask for you. Don't worry, you always have to let go of the errand." After Jia Zhu finished speaking, she persuaded Jia Cong, thinking Face has a mind of its own.
It is not a bad thing to want to seek employment in the army, but the problem is that although the Duhu Mansion is said to be peaceful now, it is not completely without danger. The incident in Shandong is an example. At that time, Guo Shiyun led the army to intercept Donghu's secret Xincai involved so many things. It can be seen that although the frontier is generally peaceful, there are still turbulent waves in the dark. When Jia Cong goes there, can Mrs. Hu rest assured? Jia Zhu's first consideration is Mrs. Hu's wishes.
While thinking, when Jia Zhu went to Jia Mu's yard to greet Jia Mu, she saw Jia Mu and Mrs. Hu talking with a smile, and there were a few brocade boxes in front of her. When Jia Zhu came in, Mrs. Hu was saying He said: "My aunt really has a heart. These red ginseng are rare and high-grade. They are nourishing but not too much. They are most suitable for old ladies. At the beginning, I heard people say that our aunt's uncles were all the best. I don't know. How will the eldest girl and the rest of the generation live in the future, no, the eldest son-in-law has taken a good lead, and will definitely be a very filial son in the future."
As soon as Jia Zhu heard this, her eyes fell on the brocade box. At this time, she greeted Jia Mu, and Jia Mu also smiled and said to Jia Zhu: "This is sent by the Zhao family. Listen to their family. It is said that the public has opened a drugstore."
Jia Zhu knew in his heart that it seemed that what King Cheng left behind was not only money, but also shop, maybe even land.
When Jia's mother was tired and asked Mrs. Hu and Jia Zhu to go to rest, Jia Zhu talked to Mrs. Hu about Jia Cong.
Chapter 110 The first time a man carried a gun in his heart, he marched in chaos from the army to the government office in three houses
"Auntie, Cong'er mentioned to me today that he wanted me to help him clear the way, find a vacancy under Xiao Cheng's tent, and rush to the Duhu Mansion together, does Auntie know about this?" Jia Zhu told Jia Cong's After thinking about talking to Madam Hu, she raised her eyes to see Madam Hu's reaction.
Mrs. Hu nodded, and then said: "Cong'er has liked this since she was a child, and now she has finally won a martial arts champion. Earlier, she told me that she wanted to go to the Duhu Mansion, and now she has Xiao Cong. His lord's transfer, he must be impatient."
Hearing what Mrs. Hu said, Jia Zhu was not in a hurry anymore. Mrs. Hu knew about this a long time ago, and now she should have a secret answer in her heart, so Jia Zhu asked, "What does the eldest aunt mean?" This kind of thing The relationship is very important, and Jia Zhu can't make the decision. Although the eldest uncle is Cong'er's biological father, no one knows now that the eldest house is Mrs. Hu who is in charge of the house, so as long as Mrs. Hu makes up her mind, Jia Zhu will know what to do next. What to do.
Mrs. Hu sighed: "I can't help my son, I naturally hope that he can find a safe and stable job, and I don't want him to eat sand outside the Great Wall, but this child's temper, if he is not allowed to grind outside Practice and hone, afraid that he will suffer in the future if he is stable now."
The implication is that Mrs. Hu acquiesced to Jia Cong's wish.
Hearing this, Jia Zhu couldn't help but nodded secretly in her heart. It really was Mo Ruo's mother who knew her children. The younger brothers and nephews in the family, except Baoyu, are now good and promising children, but these children all have a problem.
They are all raised in the mansion with rich clothes and fine food, and the friends they make are also descendants of aristocratic families. They have never tasted hardships through stumbling, and their personalities are very innocent. Rather than waiting to suffer later, it is better to let go now. Once let go, let them stumble and understand what kind of world is outside the home.
Everyone in the house regards them as treasures, but when they are outside, they are not as comfortable as at home. Yesterday Jia Rong sent back a letter from Jia Zhu, in which Jia Rong vomited bitterness to Jia Zhu At the same time, I was also quite emotional. If it wasn't for the time of Dabi's experience before and after learning something from Su Zhengqin after Dezhong, I'm afraid he would be at a loss now.
Jia Zhu also sighed when she read the letter. Jia Rong's wings are gradually growing now. As long as the child can walk upright and sit upright, the future is limitless. Jia Lian, Jia Zhu is not worried. Young, he opened a shop by himself, and helped manage the shop in the public school. Jia Lian was the first of these children to mature. When it comes to Erye Lian, everyone is scared.
Now only Jia Cong has not really left the mansion to see the world. Now that he has this opportunity and Mrs. Hu supports him again, Jia Zhu can't help but think of Baoyu and shake his head secretly.
On the second day, Jia Zhu found Xiao Cheng and mentioned Jia Cong's matter to him. After hearing what Jia Zhu said, Xiao Cheng couldn't help but nodded: "Don't worry, I can protect him naturally, but Now that he is under my account, he is just my subordinate, if he wants to get preferential treatment, he will have to suffer."
These words are exactly in line with Jia Zhu's intentions, life is safe, the rest is everyone's fate, Xiao Cheng naturally can't guarantee it, and when Xiao Cheng agrees here, Jia Zhu will report the matter to the emperor when he goes to see the emperor ——The biggest boss is here. If the emperor speaks, the official department will naturally follow suit. Although Wei Shu has been transferred to the official department as a doctor, Jia Zhu doesn't want to cause trouble for others. , there will be many people offended, and it is hard to guarantee that someone will fail to start with him and turn to trouble others.
Jia Zhu secretly smiled wryly in her heart, she has really offended others in her life!
Xiao Yuan was also very happy when he heard this: "I was still thinking of letting him be a small commander in the city guards to practice his experience first, and then join the military department to work in the military department. After all, there are too few people with both civil and military skills. I didn't expect him to have a It’s a good thing to have big ambitions and not be afraid of suffering.”
The emperor's imperial pen personally approved the decree to the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Officials naturally followed suit, and Jia Cong's errand came out immediately. Yes, I just don't know what to say.
Jia Zhu patted him on the shoulder: "When you work in your cousin-in-law's army, you must be more strict with yourself. Don't cause trouble for your cousin-in-law, or you will be in vain for the job that big brother begged for you."
Jia Cong nodded again and again: "Brother, don't worry, I will do well, you forgot, I will be a general!"
The family knew about Jia Cong's new errand, and they were all busy with it. Mother Jia just found out that when she heard that she was going to go beyond the Great Wall, the old lady was upset. Are you outside the Great Wall? Jia Zhu had to go when he accompanied the army in the Northern Expedition, but now it's different. The old lady called Jia Zhu and the others, and she disagreed wholeheartedly.
Jia Zhu and Mrs. Hu had a good talk, which made Jia Mu reluctantly nodded. Jia Cong was scolded for a while and listened with her head bowed. After Jia Mu finished talking about Jia Cong, she felt more comfortable. There was a dejected man standing there, and Jia's mother was angry and laughed, and told him to go back with Mrs. Hu. Jia Zhu was the only one left in the room, and Jia's mother sighed again.
"You guys, all of you are grown up, and I don't want to listen to you anymore, hey!"
Jia Zhu came to Mother Jia with a smile and rubbed the old lady's shoulders: "Grandmother, that's not what you said. Even if we are 80 years old, we are still your grandsons, and we have to listen to your teachings in front of you."
Mother Jia laughed when she heard that, "If I'm still alive when you are eighty, I'll be really an old monster!"
"It's just that, since ancient times, there has always been a death in human life. It is the death of a person, and no matter how powerful one is, one cannot escape it. In the future, although children and grandchildren have their own blessings, but blessings are disasters, it is Man conquers nature. A while ago, Chengjun Wang and his family were all turbulent in the capital city. It is a majestic hereditary royal blood of the county king, but what if the descendants do not grow up? Our family has not experienced ups and downs for so many years. Conger and the others now have Grandmother, don't you feel happy with this kind of heart?" Jia Zhu's hands were just right, rubbing and talking to Jia's mother over and over again.
Jia's mother was fascinated by what she heard, and finally nodded unconsciously, and sighed: "You are right, it is grandma who loves her grandson so much that she almost delayed him."
"Actually, I don't need to tell you. You can think through it yourself, but you have to be sullen for a while longer. My grandson is afraid that you will get angry." After Jia Zhu finished speaking, Jia's mother laughed again.
"I know your filial piety, you were wronged just now, look at your wronged, like a monkey!"
"Grandmother, you only talked about Cong'er just now. I think Baoyu is gone now. I wanted to talk about him several times, but I was afraid that Grandma would be unhappy. Today I will say it together." Jia Zhu looked at Jiamu happily Yes, strike while the iron is hot.
Mother Jia nodded after hearing this, and then said: "You are just such a brother, your mother is sick now, and you know your father's temper. Since you were young, when you caught Zhou, your father saw Baoyu I don't have a good face, I'm afraid that if I don't protect you a little bit, your father will show the attitude of educating you at that time, I'm really afraid that if something happens to Baoyu, it will kill me."
When Jia Zhu was a child, he was forced by his father to become seriously ill and almost died. She finally survived the death and grew up safely to this day. Every time Jia Mu thinks about it, she recites Buddha in her heart.
"Grandmother, don't worry, my father is indeed strict, but I am different from my father. Don't you feel relieved when you entrust Baoyu to me to teach?" Jia Zhu saw her grandmother's look sad, and heard her mention her childhood, and she felt very sad. emotion.
"What are you talking about? Naturally, I am at ease when you do things. If you don't say anything else, just look at Lian'er and them. They are still your uncles, brothers, and grandmothers. I can see how you treat them. Baoyu is yours. The two of you are the closest." After Jia's mother finished speaking, she sighed again.
Jia Zhu knew that her grandmother knew that it was wrong to spoil her too much, but she was really reluctant to let Jia's mother let go right now. No, even Mr. Zhao was invited by me to be a teacher in the yamen. Even if he wanted to teach Baoyu, he didn't have time. When Baoyu is older, I will have free time on my side. Grandma won't be reluctant , then I don't agree."
Mother Jia listened, smiled and nodded: "I will
Xiao Ze knew that the two sons of Chengjun Wang were greedy for money, lustful and inactive, so this time the branch family is eager to find someone to testify. I don't know what they have in mind, so it's good to have a look.
The other two are Prince Lizong and King Sujun. The former is in charge of the clan mansion, and the latter is the younger brother of King Chengjun. It is reasonable to ask them to work together, but Prince Lizong is Kang Zhenyuan. His grandfather, the prince and old concubine Li Zong who served as mediators for Zhao Feng and Yuan Chun back then, this time, these three witnesses, two of them can be regarded as Zhao Feng's side, Xiao Ze sneered in his heart, if there is no ghost here, That's amazing!
On the day when the family property was divided, the accounts were brought out and announced on the spot, the warehouse was opened, and the silver, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc. inside were all divided into three parts, and they were shown to the three witnesses present one by one according to the accounts. The king of Chengjun is rich, but the property in front of him is really shabby.
But the accounts are clear, and both the accountant and the manager in charge of the keys to the warehouse have testified that this is indeed the case. King Su is a good man and has no heart, and he still feels that his brother's family has become empty for so many years. It's a pity, but Lizong The prince and Xiao Ze are not oil-efficient lamps, they are like mirrors in their hearts, probably after so long, these two colluded with the people in the family, and moved the warehouse to a large extent, right?
The two are just witnesses, they came out to uphold justice when several parties disagreed about the division of the family property, but now Zhao Feng didn't even have the slightest objection at all, and he just registered and took these things to leave, and they didn't say much , When Xiao Ze and Jia Zhu talked about it, Jia Zhu also felt emotional.
"Don't look at Zhao Feng's background as a rough man, but his heart is not rough. It's just that he doesn't want to share the property of the old county king, so he pretends to be confused." However, Jia Zhu really likes this kind of wealth that is not his own. Well, a man has the ability to save a family business by himself, so why always worry about the inheritance of his father's generation.
"You, brother-in-law, really look after your brother-in-law. I'm tired of hearing it." Xiao Ze raised his eyebrows, and Jia Zhu gave him a glare.
"I don't think you need to think about the next shop, just open a vinegar jar shop."
Xiao Ze laughed: "Speaking of vinegar jars, someone really overturned the jars of vinegar. I heard that your nephew is Jia Rong, who got a second-class Jinshi in this subject, and hangs around Su Zhengqin all day long. Meng Xian was so angry that he begged me for help these two days and asked the Ministry of Officials to send Jia Rong to Lingnan as a county magistrate."
"The county magistrate is exactly what he should be, but Lingnan is exempt." Jia Zhu also laughed when he heard that.
Ever since Jia Rong realized that he couldn't just study hard, he has been very concerned about other common affairs besides books, and he has also pondered the way to be an official. After all, according to the routine, his ranking is not enough to enter the Hanlin, so he should be sent to the county magistrate To begin with, Jia Rong used to be high-spirited and thought that there was a solution in the book that could solve everything, but now that he knew it was not possible, he was really distressed.
Jia Rong and Jia Qiang said this, and Jia Qiang was happy: "Isn't the magistrate of the county just promoted to the hall to ask questions? The storyteller always said that once you pat the gavel, you will be promoted to the county government hall, so you should listen to it more." !"
Jia Rong thought so too, he didn't go to listen to the books, but looked for some public case novels in the market, it was the first time he came into contact with these idle books, and he was fascinated by them, when the Chinese New Year, Su Zheng Qin Zheng came to visit Jia's house. Jia Zhu and Su Zhengqin had a good relationship now, and they often walked around. When Jia Rong knew about it, his eyes lit up.
Su Zhengqin is the Governor of the Shuntian Mansion, and he is famous for his ability to solve cases with ease. Jia Rong has been fascinated by these things recently, so he came out to greet Su Zhengqin. Su Zhengqin also knew that there was a second-class Jinshi in Jia's mansion. He looked at the child in front of him. Young, still very likable, and well-spoken, he neither has the dandyism he hates the most, nor is he arrogant because of his youth, so he secretly nodded in his heart.
Hearing the child's words again, it was all related to asking questions, Su Zhengqin felt a little puzzled, and only after asking about it did he find out that Jia Rong was preparing to become a magistrate in the future, Su Zhengqin couldn't help but laughed and felt that this child had Prospects, although most of the new subjects are released to magistrates, but this is also for the poor.
For a family like Jia Rong, as long as they entrust their connections to spend money, they can naturally stay in Beijing and start as a small official. There are so many official positions in the six departments and nine ministers, why bother to go to a remote village outside to become a county magistrate?
But Jia Rong didn't think so. Not only did he want to be the magistrate, but he also wanted to be a good magistrate to solve the problems of the people. Su Zhengqin naturally took a look at Jia Ronggao after hearing this, and was also happy to guide him. The Ministry of Officials had not assigned Jia Rong an official position, so Jia Rong wandered around with Su Zhengqin all day long.
The Yamen was opened, Shuntian Mansion had a case, and Jia Rong also begged Su Zhengqin to learn from him, but Su Zhengqin didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that Jia Rong would follow the officials to search for a few days to try. He retreated when he felt tired, but Jia Rong really didn't. He was quite excited before and after running. Later, he followed Wu Zuo to see the bloody scene. Although his face was very bad, he persisted.
Su Zhengqin saw him like this, so he acquiesced to him, and now Meng Xian was offended, which is why Xiao Ze said just now.
Jia Zhu was also very satisfied with Jia Rong's attitude. At this time, the whole Jia's mansion also knew, and it was spread from top to bottom, saying that there would be a small miracle in the mansion in the future. When the news finally came from the official department, Sure enough, Jia Rong was appointed as the magistrate of Pingnan County, Jiangxi Province.
Jia Rong was going to take office immediately, and he was very excited, and the family was busy. Jia Jing chose a nanny and two maids to take care of Jia Rong's daily life, and gave Jiao Da to Jia Rong, so that Jiao Da could help outside. After Jia Rong was busy, Jia Zhu also selected four proper people who had been in Jia's mansion for many years to accompany him for protection. The most useful ones were the two middle-aged men sent by Su Zhengqin. The men, Chen Long and Chen Hu.
The two brothers were originally from Jiangxi, and they learned a few kung fu moves. They used to be performers in the rivers and lakes, and later they were corrupted in the capital. Grateful, and he didn't want to eat the same bowl of rice from the bottom of his heart, so he decided to devote himself to being a servant in the government office, and Su Zhengqin accepted the two of them.
They have been with Su Zhengqin for so many years and have helped handle a lot of cases. It can be said that they have rich experience. When Jia Rong was learning from Su Zhengqin, he was also very familiar with the two brothers of the Chen family. Going back to Jia Rong and ordering the magistrate of Pingnan County, Su Zhengqin thought of the origins of the two brothers, so he asked them to come and ask them if they wanted to follow Jia Rong back to their origins.
The two of them have a good relationship with Jia Rong, and they like this young master very much. When they heard Mr. Su's words, they remembered that they hadn't returned to their hometown for many years, which really aroused a lot of homesickness, so they decided to leave Jia Rong This trip is also used as Jia Rong's team.
Having been in the yamen for many years, the two brothers know a lot of twists and turns, and they have helped Jia Rong a lot by following them this time.
It was a trivial matter for Jia Rong to go to Pingnan County to take up the post, but Jia Zhu understood in his heart that Jiangxi is adjacent to Fujian, and now Fuzhou Prefecture is under Shi Shaokuan's governance to make the emperor's plan a great success. Furthermore, there is no doubt that Jiangxi is a good choice, because next to Jiangxi is Jiangnan.
Whether Jia Rong is going to Pingnan County is a real talent or a short-lived mediocrity, it all depends on him. Although Jia Zhu said so, he has confidence in Jia Rong in his heart.
After Jia Rong arrived in office, the second day after Jia Rong passed the family letter to return to peace was the Great Court Meeting. There was nothing important to do at the court meeting. Then he said: "I intend to transfer Su Zhengqin to be the governor of Liangjiang, but I have always been troubled by the position of Governor of Shuntian Prefecture. Now that the shipping business is on the right track, if I transfer you to Governor of Shuntian Prefecture, there will be someone in your heart." Choose to take over the job of the Maritime Governor?"
Chapter 110: The most difficult thing to do in the government office is to be a young man with a hot blood in the army
Governor of Shuntian Prefecture? !Jia Zhu couldn't help being taken aback, all the affairs of his shipping office had just started on the right track, and now that he was letting go, Jia Zhu was really worried about who would take over, because if something went wrong, everything he had done before would be in vain.
But the emperor has already said this, Jia Zhu thought for a while, and then said: "The Haiyun yamen is complicated and complicated. For a moment, I really can't think of a candidate to take over. I don't know what the emperor is about the errand of the governor of Shuntian Prefecture." Charter?"
By reassigning Su Zhengqin to be the governor of Liangjiang, Jia Zhu can already be sure that Jiangxi will be the next step the emperor wants to move. At present, there are too few people the emperor can trust, so Su Zhengqin is undoubtedly the best candidate, but Shuntian Mansion, Jia Zhu Some headaches, the most difficult government official in the whole world is probably the Shuntian government.
Shuntian Mansion is at the foot of the Son of Heaven. It stands to reason that it should be much better than the other remote villages in all aspects. What's more, the prefect is actually equivalent to the chief envoy of a province. There are many benefits, but in fact, there are many messy things behind this benefit.
There were few disturbances in the capital, but those who dared to stir up troubles, which ones were ordinary people, were basically the children of the rich and powerful. The light ones were grudges and troubles, and the serious ones might even involve endless disputes in the court.
If you want to make this governor of Shuntian Mansion stable, you must bear the brunt of listening to the six ways and seeing all directions. Secondly, you must either walk around in the middle like an old fox, or be like Su Zhengqin, with a stern face and relatives who don’t care about you. Those who belong to the little princes and princes are all criminals and prisoners here.
However, it is really not up to Jia Zhu to decide what kind of governor he wants to be, it depends on what the emperor has in mind.
Sure enough, after Jia Zhu finished speaking, the emperor smiled wryly: "The current safety of the capital depends on Su Zhengqin. If there is a way, I don't want to transfer Mr. Su away. Since I ascended the throne, among these brothers of mine, there is no one who is restless. There are more and more of them.”
This is really the truth, Jia Zhu also sighed in his heart when he heard this, how many people were dissatisfied and tried to trip Xiao Yuan when he was awarded the crown prince, at that time they also had no idea.
Although the late emperor loved and trusted Xiao Yuan very much because of the merit of saving him, how many people have ascended the throne from the prince to the emperor in the past dynasties?The crown prince is the chair with the hottest ass in the whole world. When trust turns into suspicion, it is a terrible thing.
No one could have imagined that the former emperor, who was considered to be in good health, would pass away so quickly. Xiao Yuan was able to ascend the throne smoothly. At that time, the former emperor's princes had not made much progress, waiting to see the young emperor. There is peace and action, and now that time has passed, many people are ready to move.
Thinking of this, Jia Zhu couldn't help but feel moved. At this time, Su Zhengqin was transferred away. Could it be that the emperor meant to let this group of people become wild horses and stir up a mess in the capital, and then wipe them all out?
This method saves trouble, but Xiao Yuan, Jia Zhu, knows that although he is impatient, he is also soft-hearted and affectionate. This kind of thing is definitely not something he can do. If the emperor really wants to do this now, Jia Zhu There was a deep chill in Zhu's heart. From now on, he really wanted to keep the name "Xiao Yuan" in his memory forever, and the person in front of him could only be "The Emperor" from now on.
Thinking of this, Jia Zhu thought about it, and decided to test the emperor's intentions, but the words should not be too straightforward. Jia Zhu thought about it, and then said: "There is a saying among the people that the emperor is barefoot. Don't be afraid of wearing shoes, Mr. Su's parents died when he was young, his wife died and he didn't reunite, he was the only one in the family, he didn't even have any children, when he took office as governor of the Shuntian Prefecture, he was homeless and poor. No matter how many people he offends, he will not be afraid at all, just relying on this, the minister is far behind."
The emperor couldn't help but raised his eyebrows and smiled after hearing this: "I know you have a lot of worries, you have been careful since you were young, but at that time you offended many people for your father, why were you not afraid at that time, and now you come to me to make grievances , but don't worry, since I let you be the Governor of Shuntian Mansion, I will be the biggest backer behind you, no matter who it is, you don't have to be scruples, let me rule them well!"
After hearing this, Jia Zhu's heart was completely at ease, and the same smile appeared on her face as before: "With the emperor's words, the subject is equivalent to having a Shangfang sword, otherwise, if you are tied up, you will have to fight!" It's dead."
The emperor laughed, showing the cunning that belonged to Xiao Yuan that Jia Zhu was most familiar with: "Shangfang sword? Uncle Nine Emperors is a ready-made Shangfang sword. Take a look at the private affairs of the two of you these years." I don't know at all? You can hide it from your father and queen mother, but you can't hide it from my eyes."
Jia Zhu's face was slightly hot. The relationship between him and Xiao Ze had been hidden all these years. He had to be wary of his family's opinion. Xiao Ze had such a queen mother who loved her youngest son and still couldn't forget to hold her grandson. Ze naturally didn't dare to expose their feelings to others, but he wanted to hide this kind of thing, and his daily speech and behavior also showed some clues. When Xiao Yuan was still the fifteenth prince, he made good friends with the two of them again. Xiao Yuan is so clever, he has already sensed that something is wrong, and now he is able to tell the truth.
It's really rare for Xiao Yuan to see Jia Zhu blush, and he can't help being playful, his Long Wei has always been strict with others, and Xiao Yuan has never put on such airs with the people close to him.
The first is Chang Xier, this little eunuch has a close relationship with him, the second is Xiao Ze, and the third is Jia Zhu. In fact, Xiao Yuan also trusts and is close to Lin Ruhai, but Lin Ruhai is not the same as the above. , Lin Ruhai is his tutor, and he showed a little less majestic appearance in front of Lin Ruhai, and Lin Ruhai began to fulfill the responsibility of being a tutor, and began to discipline him.
"In the past, I wondered why Uncle Nine Emperors, who was so romantic in the world, suddenly became self-cultivated and extinct in love. After I observed it, I found out that he was hanged on a tree. When you first saw Uncle Nine Emperors, you were like a rat. Seeing it like a cat, I looked at it again later, ah, the status of the two of you is reversed, I think Uncle Jiuhuang is the most impatient with others, but he is obedient to you."
Xiao Yuan spoke with such high spirits that he didn't even use "Zhen", he just came and went, his face was still beaming, but at the end of the speech, Xiao Yuan gradually became depressed.
"Uncle Nine Emperors has always been flirtatious, but he is so devoted when he is devoted. The taboo relationship between the two of you can still be devoted, but it is difficult for me to have such a luxury in this life."
Seeing Xiao Yuan moaning and sighing, Jia Zhu felt uncomfortable, but others could not persuade him about such things. Jia Zhu knew that ever since Xiao Yuan got married, he and his cousin Deng's husband and wife were the most affectionate. Now that the national funeral has passed, many ministers began to Shang Zhezi asked Zhengxiu to fill the harem, Xiao Yuan's sigh probably came from this, but everyone in the world can be devoted, only the emperor can't.
"These things that the emperor has done since inheriting the great treasure will be good things that will last forever in the future. How can everything go well in life? The emperor was the most open-minded person in the past. Why is it sad to be a child today? See, I have to preach again." Jia Zhu knew that Uncle Lin was the one Xiao Yuan feared the most, so he comforted him in this way.
Sure enough, Xiao Yuan's mood improved a lot, the monarch and his ministers chatted about some childhood things again, Xiao Yuan also left Jia Zhu to eat together in the palace, until the sun was setting, Jia Zhu did not leave the palace, at this time It was getting late, so Jia Zhu didn't go to the yamen, but went back to the mansion directly.
After pondering for a long time in the study, Jia Zhu now has a peace of mind about the matter of Shuntian Mansion, so she put it aside for now. The other difficult thing now is to replace him as the governor of the sea, because most of the sea government They are all officials from the original Water Transport. Although there are not many factions in it, they are not much better.
This is the case where there are people. Jia Zhu is most afraid of choosing non-human beings, turning a good yamen into a battlefield where you fight against each other, and then the smog will ruin the good shipping. Wouldn't it be a waste of all previous efforts.
Thinking of her two deputies, Jia Zhu frowned even tighter. These two are quite capable, but they are not bad at intrigue. Either one will give each other eye drops in front of him from time to time, and choose them Which one came up, Jia Zhu was not at ease.
But if other people are not familiar with the affairs of the maritime yamen, it would be difficult to convince the public by airborne, and it would even delay the matter. Thinking of this, Jia Zhu suddenly thought of Xiao Zelai, if it was him, it would be easy.
Before, he would hesitate to recommend Xiao Ze to the emperor, but now he has no scruples. In fact, it is a good thing that Xiao Yuan knows the relationship between the two of them.
The next day Jia Zhu went to see the emperor and recommended Xiao Ze. Although the emperor joked a little, he knew in his heart that Xiao Ze was the best candidate at the moment.
On the day when Su Zhengqin was transferred, there were quite a few changes in the personnel affairs of the imperial court, except that Su Zhengqin was transferred to be Governor of Liangjiang, Jia Zhu was transferred to be governor of Shuntian Prefecture, Xiao Ze was appointed as Governor of Shipping, and Guo Shiyun was summoned back to Beijing. Xiao Cheng was changed to defend the Duhufu, and Zhao Feng was promoted to the post of commander of Shenjingwei.
The faces of all the ministers in the court hall were extremely exciting, some were envious, jealous, thoughtful, and of course gloating. Many people secretly thought that Guo Shiyun seemed to be unlucky. One of the great officials in the frontier region was summoned back to Beijing, and he did not mention any official position. The position of Commander Xiao who was transferred could be filled by Zhao Feng. Isn't this to clean up Guo Shiyun or something?
While everyone was discussing, Jia Zhu and Su Zhengqin made a handover. Su Zhengqin explained all the affairs clearly, and Jia Zhu's face turned green when he heard it.
"You said, you want to take away the officials, yamen servants, clerks, and masters?! Then you leave me an empty yamen? Are you kidding me!"
Su Zhengqin has always been serious, but now he heard Jia Zhu's words, but now he showed a smile: "I never joke, I will take these people away, just these few days, quickly find a group of people For your own use, otherwise when you officially take over, you will be a poor commander."
No matter how helpless Jia Zhu was, he first invited Zhao Ningchuan to be his master, and then brothers Gao Yong and Gao Wu acted as police officers on errands. It was Lin Ruhai who recommended him an assistant who was the magistrate of Hangzhou, and Jia Zhu gathered the staff of the yamen.
Not to mention that Su Zhengqin took away the entire yamen team, Meng Xian, who also took Jia Zhu and Xiao Ze's behind-the-scenes masters of the Zuiyun team, master of opera scripts, invisible stage pillars, and drill masters, etc. After leaving, Xiao Ze and Jia Zhu were used to being hands-off shopkeepers of the theater troupe, now that Meng Xian followed Su Zhengqin, the two of them had to find someone to take charge of the theater troupe.
Jia Zhu didn't need to bother about this, someone volunteered, it was none other than Liu Xianglian who had been in the theater troupe since she was a child, this young master of the Liu family is now Meng Xian's direct disciple, and he is very popular in Zuiyun troupe, Although he is young, everyone listens to him.
After taking care of the affairs of the yamen and the theater troupe, Jia Zhu and Xiao Ze had a bite of food at the Zuiyun Building. He was busy until the afternoon, so he didn't even bother to eat lunch. Now he was really hungry.
After eating and resting for a while, they drank some tea again. When Jia Zhu and Xiao Ze mentioned Xiao Yuan's joke, Xiao Ze squinted his eyes and said, "It's good that Xiao Shiwu knows, so don't worry about him making trouble for us when the time comes." .”
Jia Zhu nodded, and at this moment Xiao Ze said again: "By the way, do you still remember the matter of the division of the property of the Chengjun Wang family? At that time, I kept thinking that the Chengjun Wang must have left behind. I understand, that Eunuch Chen who was specially ordered to stay in Zhao Feng's house to support his life, he is actually the manager of Chengjun Wang's small treasury. The two sons of Chengjun Wang don't know about this. , really lucky."
Jia Zhu couldn't help being slightly stunned when she heard this, and then she became happy in her heart. Zhao Feng's family is very poor, and the farm is only so small. It's getting more and more embarrassing.
The movement and favor among colleagues are indispensable, so the expenses during the festivals will be high, not to mention that from time to time, colleagues' fathers celebrate their birthdays, children's birthdays, marriages and so on. It's a matter of human feelings, which one doesn't have to be paid for?
The smoother the official career, the more favors there are. Zhao Feng still refuses to accept the foreign money, so there is no improvement at all. Employing Yuan Chun to the Jia family has emptied the Zhao family's wealth. In the past, this was much better.
Now, what the Zhao family lacks the most is really the most vulgar money. It has to be said that the actions of the king of Chengjun really made the Zhao family suffer from drought for a long time.
In this way, Yuanchun can relax a little bit, and Jia Zhu is also happy. After returning to Jia's mansion, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Jia Cong looking out at the door, and saw that he had entered the door. Jia Cong took three steps. And ran over in two steps.
"Brother, I'm waiting for you. There is something you must help me, brother." After Jia Cong finished speaking in a hurry, Jia Zhu and him walked inside, and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Rong'er is going to be the county magistrate, and I don't even have a shadow of my job. Today I heard that my cousin-in-law is going to guard the Duhu Mansion. I wonder if I can find an errand in the army to my cousin-in-law. Brother, you also know that I have always wanted to go to the battlefield and become a general in the future!" Jia Cong said excitedly, but Jia Zhu just nodded when he heard it.
"I know, but this matter is not sure right away. Let me ask for you. Don't worry, you always have to let go of the errand." After Jia Zhu finished speaking, she persuaded Jia Cong, thinking Face has a mind of its own.
It is not a bad thing to want to seek employment in the army, but the problem is that although the Duhu Mansion is said to be peaceful now, it is not completely without danger. The incident in Shandong is an example. At that time, Guo Shiyun led the army to intercept Donghu's secret Xincai involved so many things. It can be seen that although the frontier is generally peaceful, there are still turbulent waves in the dark. When Jia Cong goes there, can Mrs. Hu rest assured? Jia Zhu's first consideration is Mrs. Hu's wishes.
While thinking, when Jia Zhu went to Jia Mu's yard to greet Jia Mu, she saw Jia Mu and Mrs. Hu talking with a smile, and there were a few brocade boxes in front of her. When Jia Zhu came in, Mrs. Hu was saying He said: "My aunt really has a heart. These red ginseng are rare and high-grade. They are nourishing but not too much. They are most suitable for old ladies. At the beginning, I heard people say that our aunt's uncles were all the best. I don't know. How will the eldest girl and the rest of the generation live in the future, no, the eldest son-in-law has taken a good lead, and will definitely be a very filial son in the future."
As soon as Jia Zhu heard this, her eyes fell on the brocade box. At this time, she greeted Jia Mu, and Jia Mu also smiled and said to Jia Zhu: "This is sent by the Zhao family. Listen to their family. It is said that the public has opened a drugstore."
Jia Zhu knew in his heart that it seemed that what King Cheng left behind was not only money, but also shop, maybe even land.
When Jia's mother was tired and asked Mrs. Hu and Jia Zhu to go to rest, Jia Zhu talked to Mrs. Hu about Jia Cong.
Chapter 110 The first time a man carried a gun in his heart, he marched in chaos from the army to the government office in three houses
"Auntie, Cong'er mentioned to me today that he wanted me to help him clear the way, find a vacancy under Xiao Cheng's tent, and rush to the Duhu Mansion together, does Auntie know about this?" Jia Zhu told Jia Cong's After thinking about talking to Madam Hu, she raised her eyes to see Madam Hu's reaction.
Mrs. Hu nodded, and then said: "Cong'er has liked this since she was a child, and now she has finally won a martial arts champion. Earlier, she told me that she wanted to go to the Duhu Mansion, and now she has Xiao Cong. His lord's transfer, he must be impatient."
Hearing what Mrs. Hu said, Jia Zhu was not in a hurry anymore. Mrs. Hu knew about this a long time ago, and now she should have a secret answer in her heart, so Jia Zhu asked, "What does the eldest aunt mean?" This kind of thing The relationship is very important, and Jia Zhu can't make the decision. Although the eldest uncle is Cong'er's biological father, no one knows now that the eldest house is Mrs. Hu who is in charge of the house, so as long as Mrs. Hu makes up her mind, Jia Zhu will know what to do next. What to do.
Mrs. Hu sighed: "I can't help my son, I naturally hope that he can find a safe and stable job, and I don't want him to eat sand outside the Great Wall, but this child's temper, if he is not allowed to grind outside Practice and hone, afraid that he will suffer in the future if he is stable now."
The implication is that Mrs. Hu acquiesced to Jia Cong's wish.
Hearing this, Jia Zhu couldn't help but nodded secretly in her heart. It really was Mo Ruo's mother who knew her children. The younger brothers and nephews in the family, except Baoyu, are now good and promising children, but these children all have a problem.
They are all raised in the mansion with rich clothes and fine food, and the friends they make are also descendants of aristocratic families. They have never tasted hardships through stumbling, and their personalities are very innocent. Rather than waiting to suffer later, it is better to let go now. Once let go, let them stumble and understand what kind of world is outside the home.
Everyone in the house regards them as treasures, but when they are outside, they are not as comfortable as at home. Yesterday Jia Rong sent back a letter from Jia Zhu, in which Jia Rong vomited bitterness to Jia Zhu At the same time, I was also quite emotional. If it wasn't for the time of Dabi's experience before and after learning something from Su Zhengqin after Dezhong, I'm afraid he would be at a loss now.
Jia Zhu also sighed when she read the letter. Jia Rong's wings are gradually growing now. As long as the child can walk upright and sit upright, the future is limitless. Jia Lian, Jia Zhu is not worried. Young, he opened a shop by himself, and helped manage the shop in the public school. Jia Lian was the first of these children to mature. When it comes to Erye Lian, everyone is scared.
Now only Jia Cong has not really left the mansion to see the world. Now that he has this opportunity and Mrs. Hu supports him again, Jia Zhu can't help but think of Baoyu and shake his head secretly.
On the second day, Jia Zhu found Xiao Cheng and mentioned Jia Cong's matter to him. After hearing what Jia Zhu said, Xiao Cheng couldn't help but nodded: "Don't worry, I can protect him naturally, but Now that he is under my account, he is just my subordinate, if he wants to get preferential treatment, he will have to suffer."
These words are exactly in line with Jia Zhu's intentions, life is safe, the rest is everyone's fate, Xiao Cheng naturally can't guarantee it, and when Xiao Cheng agrees here, Jia Zhu will report the matter to the emperor when he goes to see the emperor ——The biggest boss is here. If the emperor speaks, the official department will naturally follow suit. Although Wei Shu has been transferred to the official department as a doctor, Jia Zhu doesn't want to cause trouble for others. , there will be many people offended, and it is hard to guarantee that someone will fail to start with him and turn to trouble others.
Jia Zhu secretly smiled wryly in her heart, she has really offended others in her life!
Xiao Yuan was also very happy when he heard this: "I was still thinking of letting him be a small commander in the city guards to practice his experience first, and then join the military department to work in the military department. After all, there are too few people with both civil and military skills. I didn't expect him to have a It’s a good thing to have big ambitions and not be afraid of suffering.”
The emperor's imperial pen personally approved the decree to the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Officials naturally followed suit, and Jia Cong's errand came out immediately. Yes, I just don't know what to say.
Jia Zhu patted him on the shoulder: "When you work in your cousin-in-law's army, you must be more strict with yourself. Don't cause trouble for your cousin-in-law, or you will be in vain for the job that big brother begged for you."
Jia Cong nodded again and again: "Brother, don't worry, I will do well, you forgot, I will be a general!"
The family knew about Jia Cong's new errand, and they were all busy with it. Mother Jia just found out that when she heard that she was going to go beyond the Great Wall, the old lady was upset. Are you outside the Great Wall? Jia Zhu had to go when he accompanied the army in the Northern Expedition, but now it's different. The old lady called Jia Zhu and the others, and she disagreed wholeheartedly.
Jia Zhu and Mrs. Hu had a good talk, which made Jia Mu reluctantly nodded. Jia Cong was scolded for a while and listened with her head bowed. After Jia Mu finished talking about Jia Cong, she felt more comfortable. There was a dejected man standing there, and Jia's mother was angry and laughed, and told him to go back with Mrs. Hu. Jia Zhu was the only one left in the room, and Jia's mother sighed again.
"You guys, all of you are grown up, and I don't want to listen to you anymore, hey!"
Jia Zhu came to Mother Jia with a smile and rubbed the old lady's shoulders: "Grandmother, that's not what you said. Even if we are 80 years old, we are still your grandsons, and we have to listen to your teachings in front of you."
Mother Jia laughed when she heard that, "If I'm still alive when you are eighty, I'll be really an old monster!"
"It's just that, since ancient times, there has always been a death in human life. It is the death of a person, and no matter how powerful one is, one cannot escape it. In the future, although children and grandchildren have their own blessings, but blessings are disasters, it is Man conquers nature. A while ago, Chengjun Wang and his family were all turbulent in the capital city. It is a majestic hereditary royal blood of the county king, but what if the descendants do not grow up? Our family has not experienced ups and downs for so many years. Conger and the others now have Grandmother, don't you feel happy with this kind of heart?" Jia Zhu's hands were just right, rubbing and talking to Jia's mother over and over again.
Jia's mother was fascinated by what she heard, and finally nodded unconsciously, and sighed: "You are right, it is grandma who loves her grandson so much that she almost delayed him."
"Actually, I don't need to tell you. You can think through it yourself, but you have to be sullen for a while longer. My grandson is afraid that you will get angry." After Jia Zhu finished speaking, Jia's mother laughed again.
"I know your filial piety, you were wronged just now, look at your wronged, like a monkey!"
"Grandmother, you only talked about Cong'er just now. I think Baoyu is gone now. I wanted to talk about him several times, but I was afraid that Grandma would be unhappy. Today I will say it together." Jia Zhu looked at Jiamu happily Yes, strike while the iron is hot.
Mother Jia nodded after hearing this, and then said: "You are just such a brother, your mother is sick now, and you know your father's temper. Since you were young, when you caught Zhou, your father saw Baoyu I don't have a good face, I'm afraid that if I don't protect you a little bit, your father will show the attitude of educating you at that time, I'm really afraid that if something happens to Baoyu, it will kill me."
When Jia Zhu was a child, he was forced by his father to become seriously ill and almost died. She finally survived the death and grew up safely to this day. Every time Jia Mu thinks about it, she recites Buddha in her heart.
"Grandmother, don't worry, my father is indeed strict, but I am different from my father. Don't you feel relieved when you entrust Baoyu to me to teach?" Jia Zhu saw her grandmother's look sad, and heard her mention her childhood, and she felt very sad. emotion.
"What are you talking about? Naturally, I am at ease when you do things. If you don't say anything else, just look at Lian'er and them. They are still your uncles, brothers, and grandmothers. I can see how you treat them. Baoyu is yours. The two of you are the closest." After Jia's mother finished speaking, she sighed again.
Jia Zhu knew that her grandmother knew that it was wrong to spoil her too much, but she was really reluctant to let Jia's mother let go right now. No, even Mr. Zhao was invited by me to be a teacher in the yamen. Even if he wanted to teach Baoyu, he didn't have time. When Baoyu is older, I will have free time on my side. Grandma won't be reluctant , then I don't agree."
Mother Jia listened, smiled and nodded: "I will
