Grandmaster Koi Daily [Red Mansion]

Now that the twelfth lunar month of winter is not the time to harvest roses, Jia She is doing his best to collect several hundred catties of sugar roses in a short period of time.

The emperor knew that Jia Amnesty was not a routine of making exotic goods, so he deliberately whetted everyone's appetite.It's just that the "popular anger" has been too strong in the past few days, and when it's time to take action, we still have to take action to calm it down, otherwise it will be detrimental to future development.

So in addition to the limited supply of flower cakes in the cafeteria, there are also some "Buddhist" remarks in many teahouses and restaurants.

"I heard that the new sugar roses will be on the market in March and April, and they will definitely sell more than now."

"I won't join in the fun, the price will definitely come down in three or four months..."

"Now there are ready-made flower cakes in the cafeteria. It's made by the imperial chef, so there's no need to grab them."

"The flower cake is not something that must be eaten, so why not wait..."

Xue Qian came out with his three children, and when he heard a lot of such remarks, he knew that His Majesty the Emperor had finally taken action and sent these people to teahouses and restaurants to spread favorable remarks about Jia Amnesty.

Jia Hu also understood that the current situation was already in his father's favor, and the stone in his heart was finally lifted.

What his uncle said was indeed correct, if His Majesty did not trust his father, he would have ordered his father to be escorted to the capital at this time, instead of taking action to reverse the words now.

As soon as these "Buddhist" views spread, many civil servants who planned to impeach Jia Amnesty and military generals who wanted to rush to Yunnan to beat Jia Amnesty calmed down a lot.

There is really no need to be so eager to buy now. If you really want to eat flower cakes, you can do more errands in the yamen and wait until the cafeteria serves supper.Although one person can only get four pieces of flower cakes a day, it is enough to take them back to coax the children.

The generals are straightforward, and they don't care if they understand it.

Now that the wind has turned so quickly, even a fool can tell that there must be someone supporting Jia Amnesty behind his back.But Jia Amnesty and King Qin were not in the capital, who else could do this except His Majesty the Emperor?

However, the censors are already preparing for impeachment, and it is really uncomfortable not to say this in their stomachs.Unable to oppose His Majesty the Emperor to impeach Jia Amnesty, the censors set their sights on Nan'an County King.

The king of Nan'an County left his post privately and went out to sea from the territory of An Nanguo. He dared to let the soldiers use military horses to help Xue's family transport goods?

A man with dreadlocks is just right for impeachment.Not to mention treason and collaborating with the enemy, at least you can grasp the point of using power for personal gain to have fun.

The king of Nan'an County was drinking in a restaurant, but the little eunuch who came over told him that he was going to go to court tomorrow to defend himself. This delicious wine became bitter in his stomach...

Self defense?What can he have to defend himself? Doesn't His Majesty the Emperor know about this?

Before the little eunuch finished speaking, he saw Nan'an County King start to frown, and hurriedly told Nan'an County King about what His Majesty the Emperor had summoned now: "You don't need to worry too much, Your Majesty is calling you into the palace now to tell you about this matter. of."

His Majesty the Emperor is a very protective person, how can he let someone who works for him be bullied?

The king of Nan'an County was thinking about the experience Jia She had told him about face-sacrificing, and with the help of wine, he expressed all the grievances in his heart in front of His Majesty the Emperor.

The emperor saw that the king of Nan'an County was in his 40s, and he was crying with snot and tears. How much wronged did he have to suffer to cry like this?

So the steelyard in the emperor's heart tilted even more towards Nan'an County King.

"What's there for a man to cry about such a big thing? Is it okay to treat me as an unreasonable and foolish king?"

As soon as these words came out of the emperor's mouth, Nan'an County King's tears were immediately suppressed.It's almost meaningless, but if you continue to do it, it will backfire and make His Majesty the Emperor unhappy.

Originally, His Majesty the Emperor was inclined to his side in his heart. If His Majesty was offended at this time, he would lift a rock and shoot himself in the foot. The loss outweighs the gain.

The king of Nan'an wiped his face with his sleeve, and said bluntly that he just felt aggrieved.

"Seeing that Jia She's doing business in Yunnan in full swing, I want to see if I can help. Jia She is also a good person, he didn't hide all the good things, he told Weichen. I thought I couldn't support so many people and so many horses for nothing, so I followed Jia She to participate in it and earn some money, so that I can be self-sufficient and save some military expenses for the court..."

These things, Nan'an County King has said in the booklet.

The emperor felt that he shouldn't have called Nan'an County King here at this time today. The Nan'an County King obviously came to him to complain after drinking a lot of wine.

However, the emperor did not stop the king of Nan'an County, but let him continue to complain.

What if something truth comes out after drinking?

"Weichen sent his subordinates to escort Xue Qian. He really wanted to make money. How much money can he make by running this trip? The first time he was on the road, he encountered water bandits. He may encounter many dangers in the future. The two money Weichen earned Can you take a concubine, just the tigress at home..."

The emperor heard the word "water bandit" and was about to ask what was going on, but thinking that the king of Nan'an County probably couldn't explain it clearly now, he might as well wait until he sobered up to ask.

Hearing that the king of Nan'an County said that his concubine was a tigress, the emperor couldn't help but mocked: "Heh, if Duke Niu heard what you said, do you believe that the old man can drive you around the capital with a stick?"

The old man is eating well now, he looks good, and he must be able to beat his son-in-law.

Hearing His Majesty mention his old father-in-law, the king of Nan'an County hesitated for a long time and swallowed the words into his stomach.Seeing the embarrassment of Nan'an County King, the emperor didn't ask any more questions, and let Nan'an County King out of the palace with a smile.

"Go back and have a good rest, don't worry, as long as you don't beat people in the court tomorrow, you can say anything."

After leaving the palace, he was blown by the cold wind, and the Prince of Nan'an, who was not really drunk, became more sober.The King of Nan'an wiped the sweat from his forehead, and returned to Xue's house in a sedan chair to prepare for the "self-defense" at the court meeting tomorrow.

Now that His Majesty the Emperor has opened his mouth, he only needs to watch a group of clowns perform tomorrow.After the court, take some sugar roses and a piece of ham to visit your father-in-law.It's rare to come to the capital, it's really unreasonable not to visit...

Xue Qian was a little worried when he learned that the king of Nan'an was called into the palace, and when the king of Nan'an came back, he hurriedly asked if there was anything important.

The king of Nan'an waved his hand to say that it was fine, but some people who couldn't eat sugar roses saw that Jia Amnesty couldn't be impeached, and turned around and thought that he, the king of the county, seemed to be a good bully.

"It's nothing, Your Majesty doesn't believe those people's nonsense at all, and it's just a formality tomorrow. By the way, how many sugar roses we brought over this time are left, how many catties? I plan to visit my father-in-law tomorrow." , that ham also brought a..."

Xue Qian has reserved these, the sugar rose may not be enough for five catties, but there is still some ham.King Annan felt that the father-in-law was already in his 70s, and eating less sweet food would be good for his teeth and body.

After finalizing the things to be delivered tomorrow, the king of Nan'an County took a rest after drinking.

The number of times the King of Nan'an County has gone to court over the years can be checked with one hand. If he hadn't thought about going to court today, the King of Nan'an County would not have wanted to crawl out of the warm bed before dawn.The winter in the capital is dry and cold, but I still feel comfortable in my own territory.

After eating four steamed buns to cushion his stomach, the King of Nan'an County went to court in a warm sedan chair in a slightly tight court dress.

Although few courtiers knew Nan'an County King, they still inferred the identity of Nan'an County King from the county uniform and unfamiliar face on Nan'an County King.

Those who belonged to the four kings and eight princes also went to say hello to the king of Nan'an, and the censors who impeached the king of Nan'an heard that the king of Nan'an had really come, so they pretended to be calm and passed by the king of Nan'an, thinking that anyway, the king of Nan'an don't know them either...

The King of Nan'an didn't know their faces, but the King of Nan'an knew their court clothes.However, the king of Nan'an County remembered what the emperor had warned him, so he didn't bother to talk to this group of cowards who dared to do anything.

The Eighth Prince saw the King of Nan'an standing behind him, thinking that there was still a while before going to court, so he turned around and started chatting with the King of Nan'an.

His fourth brother has been in Yunnan for a while, and it seems that he has done a lot of things now.The king of Nan'an County came from Yunnan, and the information obtained by asking him is much more accurate.I don't know what kind of business his fourth brother and Jia She have done in Yunnan, and now he has some spare money and wants to buy a share.

The King of Nan'an guessed the identity of the Eighth Prince, and seeing that the Eighth Prince wanted to know about the Fourth Prince, the King of Nan'an said whatever came to his mind.

"His Royal Highness King Qin and Governor Jia are currently in charge of road repairs. After the first road was repaired, they began to try to get a business. The eighth prince must have seen how the first business was. Now there are many business opportunities in Yunnan. If the Eighth Prince is interested, he can invest money in Xue Qian... I will escort you to the capital with my subordinates, so there is no need to worry about bandits or water bandits... Guaranteed to make money without losing money!"

The more the eighth prince heard it, the more he felt that Nan'an County King was promoting himself, and he didn't mention his fourth brother at all.

However, he was very interested in what the King of Nan'an said, so he asked the court for the specific situation after waiting.

After three quiet whips, the courtiers were silent, and they lowered their heads slightly, waiting for His Majesty to take his seat to start today's court meeting.As in the past, Feng Kaishun shouted "Long Live the Mountain" and then retired from the court without incident.

The imperial censor who wanted to impeach the king of Nan'an immediately stood up, holding many "crimes" of the king of Nan'an on the wat board in his hand.As the target of impeachment, Nan'an County King stood up cooperatively and prepared to defend himself.

"The king of Nan'an County has committed one crime. He left his post without authorization and ignored the safety of Daqi's frontier."

"I have already asked His Majesty the Emperor about this matter in the memorial, and His Majesty also agreed, but you didn't know it. I don't blame you, the next one..."

"The king of Nan'an County committed two crimes. He abused his power and used the soldiers and horses in the army to assist the Xue family in business to obtain private profits."

"Your Majesty agrees with this matter. In addition, I donated all the money I earned from working with the Xue family as military expenses instead of going into my own pocket. I hope you will remember this clearly. Is there anything else?"

Seeing Nan'an County Wang calmly as if he didn't care about impeachment at all, Yu Shi's forehead began to sweat, and the hand holding the wat board trembled slightly.

auzw.com His impeachment must have been approved by His Majesty the Emperor.

Now I'm in big trouble...

The censor thought for a while, but in the end he didn't label Nan'an County King as a suspected collaborator and treason.After all, An Nanguo is too broken, even if Nan'an County King becomes the emperor of An Nanguo, it is useless.

The emperor saw that the censor admitted that he had fallen, and he didn't bite the king of Nan'an like a mad dog. He stroked his beard and didn't reprimand him too much. He just fined the censor three months' salary and rewarded the king of Nan'an with some antique calligraphy and paintings. Expose the matter to the past.

It didn't hurt or itch, and he got some antique calligraphy and paintings. The king of Nan'an happily planned to put the things back to Xue's house first, and then visit his father-in-law with the prepared gifts.

"Nan'an County King! The County King stays behind!"

The Eighth Prince had been waiting for the King of Nan'an, and hurried over after seeing the figure of the King of Nan'an, wanting to invite the King of Nan'an to his mansion to discuss business matters.

"This king is only in charge of escorting the goods. The eighth prince is the one who got Xue Qian by doing business. Now this king is going to Xue's mansion, does the eighth prince want to go with him?"

Nan'an County King felt that the eighth prince's thin skin would definitely not want to go to Xue's house alone, and it would be better to have him as a middleman to build a bridge and lead a line.

The eighth prince hesitated, but he didn't want to miss this seemingly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he finally nodded and got into the warm sedan chair, and was carried to Xue's house by the bearers.

He is the youngest prince, if not for his fourth brother's introduction, he would not be able to be the township department in his life.But it's impossible for his fourth brother to stay in Yunnan forever and not return to the capital, so he will have to let this guy out sooner or later.And because he is the prince, someone gave him three points.When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne in the future and he becomes an ordinary clan, there will only be one good name left.

In the future, with no errands to do and no filial piety from below, the little money given to the clan by the imperial court is really not enough to spend.If you don't make a plan early, life will be difficult when the time comes.

The eighth prince's mother's family is not visible, and he has always been a small and transparent existence among the princes. He saved 5 taels of silver after years of frugality.If you don't have business experience, you rush into it rashly, and you will lose all your money in the end.And entrusting others, the eighth prince is still not at ease.

"Master Xue, this is a 5 taels of silver note..." The Eighth Prince pushed the 5 taels of silver note over, Xue Qian looked at the silver note for a long time before speaking: "Since the Eighth Prince trusts Xue, then Xue I will live up to the trust of the Eighth Prince."

As for what to do, the Eighth Prince doesn't know what is available in Yunnan, and what can be sold well in the capital.

In the end, the eighth prince simply became the hands-off shopkeeper, letting Xue Qian look at it and order it.Earning more and earning less is all about earning, money is lying at home and money cannot be produced.

Xue Qian helped the emperor earn money, and he didn't feel much pressure on the 5 taels of silver that the Eighth Prince gave him.

The eighth prince, who had settled the matter, originally planned to talk to the king of Nan'an, but the servant of the Xue family told the eighth prince that the king of Nan'an had already gone to Niu Guogong's mansion.The eighth prince thought for a while before remembering the relationship between Nan'an County King and Niu Guogong's mansion, nodded and said yes.

"When the king of the county comes back, tell the king of the county, and I will invite the king of the county to drink another day!"

Not long after the Prince of Nan'an sent the eighth prince to Xue's mansion, he took two catties of sugar roses and a piece of ham to Niu Guogong's mansion.Although the concierge of Duke Niu's mansion didn't recognize King Nan'an, he invited King Nan'an in first, served a bowl of hot tea and immediately went to report to Duke Niu.

Not long after, Niu Guogong came to see his son-in-law in person. Seeing his father-in-law coming, the king of Nan'an County hurriedly put down his tea bowl and got up to salute.

"Okay, you boy, you still know how to come and see me, an old man." The old man said and patted Nan'an County King on the back twice.

The old man's hand was very strong, and Nan'an County King tried his best not to cry out, and when he followed behind the old man, he rubbed his back where he had been patted with one hand behind his back.With the strength of the old man, at least he can live another 20 years.

"I'm relieved to see my father-in-law is still so strong..."

Although the old man is now staying in the mansion for the elderly, he has not escaped the news from the outside world. He knows that Yunnan, where his son-in-law lives, is undergoing earth-shaking changes.Now that Daqi has settled down, there are fewer and fewer opportunities for generals to make meritorious deeds.

Although the title of King of Nan'an is hereditary, if he has no achievements, he may be cut off by the emperor at any time.Now it seems that the son-in-law has seized this opportunity.

And it's doing pretty well.

Seeing the sugar roses in the hands of Nan'an County King, the old Duke asked his servants to make flower cakes.As for the ham, I also took it with me, and I will make a dish later.

"When do you plan to come next time?" the old man asked after taking his seat.

He misses his daughter a little.Now that he has reached the time when the loess is buried up to his neck, he may go to see the King of Hell at some point, and he will take one less look at the children, and one more look at them.

The King of Nan'an thought of what his father-in-law meant, and even though he didn't intend to personally escort him next time, he told the old man that his Majesty the Emperor would come when he lived a long life.At that time, not only he will come, but also the wife and grandson will come to accompany the old man well.

Hearing his son-in-law talk about his grandson, the old man's face became even more smiling.

The flower cake was ready soon, the old man asked the housekeeper to bring his great-grandson and feed the flower cake himself.The little man had never seen anyone around his great-grandfather, and he had been looking at Nan'an Jun Wang curiously in his great-grandfather's arms.

"This is your aunt..."

King Annan smiled and hugged his nephew and grandson and fed a piece of flower cake. He felt nothing until his clothes were covered in crumbs.

It is also the capital city, but there is not so much laughter in Zhang's mansion on the other side.Jia Lian pulled his elder brother Jia Hu out of the room after his grandfather fell asleep.

"Brother, what's wrong with grandfather?"

Jia Hu glanced at his younger brother who had grown much taller than last year, hesitated for a long time, took Jia Lian's hand to the middle of the yard, and whispered in Jia Lian's ear before telling Jia Lian about their grandfather's illness.

"Grandfather sometimes doesn't recognize people."

It is inevitable that he will be confused sometimes when he is old, but he did not expect his grandfather to suffer from such a disease.Jia Lian's eye circles were a little red, but she still held back her tears.

Jia Hu was very happy to see that his younger brother was sensible.She pinched Jia Lian's face, trying to divert the heavy topic.

"Did you study hard at my uncle's during this time? I saw that you have grown a lot, and your face has become rounder. You have eaten Jiangnan delicacies..."

The older brother said he was thinner when he saw the younger brother he hadn't seen for a long time, but my elder brother was fine, and said directly that he was fat.

Jia Lian ran aside, looking at Jia Hu with resentment in his eyes.

"Uncle is Tanhualang, can I fool me? Coming back to the capital, I have left homework that I may not be able to finish in half a year."

The knowledge learned will always be my own, and my uncle also has good intentions.After Jia Hu finished speaking, he took Jia Lian's hand and left the yard so as not to disturb their grandfather's rest.

Seeing the two nephews coming out of his father's yard, Zhang Jiahong beckoned the two nephews to his side and asked what his plans were next.If you want to see their father in Yunnan, you can take a ride with Nan'an County King.

Jia Lian glanced at the elder brother who was hesitating again, and first expressed his thoughts.

"I plan to go to Yunnan to take a look, but I will be back soon. At the end of February or the beginning of March, my father will send the emperor's longevity gift to the capital. When the emperor's longevity is over, the elder brother can follow the people of the Jia family. Go to Yunnan to have a look, and let me stay in the capital."

"Lian'er's idea is very good..." Jia Lian's worries were all resolved, so Jia Hu had nothing to say.

Now that the two children had their own ideas, Zhang Jiahong felt that it was okay to do so, and then went to Xue's house to discuss the itinerary with the King of Nan'an County.

The king of Nan'an County heard that Zhang Jiahong asked him to take Jia Lian to Yunnan, and he agreed without hesitation: "Jia She and I are good brothers, and his son is my nephew. Forgive me."

"Then I would like to thank the king of the county..."

After agreeing on the itinerary, Zhang Jiahong prepared the luggage for Jia Lian, and set off for Yunnan three days later.

Jia Lian is lively and active, and in the eyes of Nan'an County King, he is a good face for practicing martial arts.After Jia Lian said goodbye to Jia Hu and Zhang Jiahong, Nan'an County King tripped Jia Lian while Jia Lian was not paying attention.

Jia Lian has long been used to this kind of dirty trick, and immediately stood aside with somersaults on both hands.

"The reaction is very fast. Boy, have you practiced?"

"I have practiced, I have practiced. Uncle Wang has used this trick a lot before, but now it doesn't work anymore."

The Uncle Wang that Jia Lian mentioned was Wang Ziteng.

Wang Ziteng took his future son-in-law seriously.The king of Nan'an County could see that Jia Lian had also studied hard, and couldn't help but want to give him some guidance.

"Come on, let me teach you two tricks!"

Jia Lian is very talented and has a very good learning attitude. He has learned a lot of new tricks in a few days, and even the "rich meat" raised during the Chinese New Year has been simplified a lot.

It is entertaining and educational, and I don't feel boring along the way.

Knowing that Jia Lian did not really worship a martial arts master, the king of Nan'an County and Jia Amnesty proposed to accept Jia Lian as an apprentice.Jia Amnesty had no objection, it was too late to be happy.

After drinking the apprentice tea offered by Jia Lian, the King of Nan'an County proposed to ask Jia Amnesty for a favor!
